Definitions

  • a first groove 122 is formed in one wall of neck 112, and a second, identical groove 124 is formed in the opposite wall.
  • a tongue 126 formed on one interior wall of cap 116 fits within groove 122, and a second tongue 128 fits within groove 124. The tongues and grooves draw the cap 116 down toward, but spaced from, shoulders 130, 132 formed at the intersection of the neck and body of container 114.
  • FIG. 10 illustrates another self-closing dispenser that functions with a sliding motion.
  • a cap 134 with one or more apertures 136 fits over the neck 138 of a container 140.
  • a plate 142 seals the upper end of the neck 138 and apertures 144 extend through the plate.
  • a first resilient pad 146 is secured between the cap and the neck of the container.
  • a second resilient pad 147 is located diametrically opposite to the first pad.
  • the pads may be formed of sponge-like material, or of a rubbery, resilient material. The pads 146, 147 bias the apertures 136 in the cap out of alignment with the apertures 144 in the plate 142 in the container.
  • a first groove 187 is formed on the neck of the container, and a second groove 188 is formed parallel thereto.
  • a land 190 separates the two grooves.
  • Tongues 192, 194 project inwardly from the cap and fit snugly into the grooves 187, 188.
  • Land. 196 is situated between the tongues, and rides along land 190 on the neck of the container.
  • An identical pattern of grooves and lands is formed on the opposite side of the neck (not shown) .
  • the tongues and grooves draw the cap 164 toward the arcuate shoulders 198, 199 of the container.
  • FIG. 13 shows the cap 164 biased to its normal, closed position by the forces applied by leaf springs 178, 180.
  • Aperture 170 is held out of alignment with apertures 172 and 174.
  • FIG. 15 shows the cap 164 shifted leftward against the biasing force of spring 178, which has been pressed toward the neck of the container by the application of an oppositely directed manual force.
  • Aperture 170 is aligned with aperture 174, so that the contents of compartment 186 can be dispensed.
  • Aperture 172 is covered by cap 156 and the contents of compartment 184 cannot be dispensed at the same time.
  • FIGS. 18-19 show another alternative embodiment wherein the cap 400 is formed with apertures 402 and inwardly extending rails 404, 406.
  • the container 408 includes a neck 410 which is closed at its upper end by plate 412. Apertures 414 extend through the plate and complementary rails 416, 418 are formed on the neck of the container.
  • the cap is moved in a sliding fashion relative to container 408 as tongues 404, 406 ride along tongues 416, 418, and vice versa.
  • An integrally formed leaf spring 420 biases the cap to assume a normal, closed position wherein the apertures 402, 414 are out of alignment.

Abstract

Un distributeur à femeture automatique comprend un couvercle (70) ayant des ouvertures (76), un récipient (74) avec un goulot (72), une plaque de fermeture (80) montée sur le goulot, et des ouvertures (78) dans la plaque de fermeture (80). Des éléments élastiques, tels qu'un ressort à lames en plastique (82) ou des tampons spongieux sont intégralement formés avec le couvercle (70) et/ou le goulot (72) du récipient, ou fixés entre ceux-ci. Des languettes (90, 92) et des rainures (84, 86) coopérantes séparées par des intervalles (88, 94) sont définies entre la surface intérieure du couvercle (70) et la surface extérieure du goulot (72) pour adapter étroitement le couvercle (70) contre la plaque de fermeture. Les éléments élastiques empêchent normalement l'alignement des ouvertures du couvercle avec les ouvertures de la plaque de fermeture (80). Les ouvertures (76) sont alignées lorsque l'on exerce une pression manuelle sur le couvercle (70) pour distribuer le contenu du récipient (70). Lorsque la pression manuelle est relâchée, les éléments élastiques déplacent automatiquement les ouvertures (76) hors d'alignement et ferment ainsi le distributeur.
