Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dispenser for liquid " - or pasty goods, in particular disinfectants, which consists essentially of a wall mounting, a cover connected to the wall mounting and an insert for receiving a storage container for the goods to be dispensed, which is detachably connected to the wall mounting and carries a module on its bottom within a U-shaped profile, in which a pump with an inlet and an outlet valve and means for holding and opening the storage container are integrated, the U-shaped profile bearing holes on its legs in the region of the web for receiving stub axles of an actuating lever which extends below the cover plate.
  • Output devices of the aforementioned type are known for example from DE-OS 30 36 523 or DE-OS 32 31 806 and have also proven themselves in practice. These units either require manual operation, ie the dispenser must be used to dispense a lever can be operated, which is undesirable for areas in which increased hygienic requirements are placed, or in such a way that the dispenser works automatically, that is to say dispenses a metered amount of its contents without touching the hand.
  • a disadvantage of both known units that could be used as disinfectant dispensers is, however, that in any case the air has access to the medium to be dispensed, ie. H. on the one hand, evaporation can take place to a greater extent, on the other hand, oxidation of the medium to be dispensed is possible.
  • impurities may also get into the medium, which, if the solvent has evaporated or decomposed by oxidation, may lead to fungal growth or the formation of resistant viruses and bacterial strains.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of creating a dispenser in which the evaporation of the solvent or the access of air to the medium to be dispensed is reduced to a minimum.
  • a dispensing device for liquid or pasty goods in particular disinfectants, which essentially consists of a wall mounting, a cover connected to the wall mounting and an insert for receiving a storage container for the goods to be dispensed, which is provided with the Wall mounting is releasably connected and carries a module on its bottom within a U-shaped profile, in which a pump with an inlet and an outlet valve and means for holding and opening the storage container are integrated, the U-shaped profile on its legs in the area of the web bearing holes for receiving stub axles of an actuating lever which extends below the cover plate, solved by the combination of the following features: the upper area of the module is provided with a tubular extension, which is a carrier for a knife for cutting the film cap of the Surrounds the storage container.
  • the approach has a cylindrical cross section. It is provided with ring-shaped steps on the outside. A bellows with at least one sealing lip rests on the steps. The sealing lip protrudes into the interior of the neck and lies against the neck of the storage container. The bellows is held by a ' tension plate which is part of the bottom of the insert.
  • the bottle cap which is usually designed as a film laminate and welded onto the bottle, is pierced by the knife. Almost at the same time, the bottle neck is enclosed by the sealing lip, which is pressed down and expanded by the neck attachment into the interior of the attachment. Encloses the sealing lip __ •
  • bellows consists of nitrile rubber. Conveniently, there is the part of the output container that with the
  • Disinfectant comes into contact or can come from polypropylene or polyethylene.
  • the latter two materials are against virtually all known disinfectants and the solvents used are resistant, they can be inexpensively deformed as injection molding and can also be colored in attractive colors.
  • Nitrile rubber is also resistant to the media to be dispensed and also has the necessary elasticity and elongation that is required for a seal.
  • the hardness of nitrile rubbers can be adjusted within a wide range. A hardness between 40 and 60 Shore has proven to be the preferred range. If the hardness increases, the sealing lip no longer clings to the neck of the storage container in a fully sealing manner; if it becomes lower, greater wear and tear due to the insertion of the storage container is to be expected. Both cases lead to leakage of the dispensing container, i.e. H. that air enters the storage container and thus oxidation or evaporation.
  • the sealing lip of the bellows tapers in the direction of the neck of the storage container to a thickness between 0.1 and 1.0 mm. It is preferably between 0.6 and 0.7 mm. In conjunction with the hardness of the bellows and thus also the hardness of the sealing lip, an absolute seal is achieved which only allows air to pass between the lip and neck base when a vacuum is created in the storage container.
  • the sealing lip i.e. the upper area of the bellows, forms a circular opening that the Encloses the neck of the storage container.
  • the invention provides for a line pressure between the sealing lip and neck extension in this area which is between 5 and 25 N.
  • This line pressure is achieved in that the clear width of the circle formed by the sealing lip is 1 to 3 mm smaller than the outside diameter of the neck of the storage container.
  • this results in a deformation of the sealing lip when the storage container is inserted, ie the sealing lip originally extending in the installed position of the bellows extends horizontally when the storage container is inserted, ie it is bent downwards. whereby the sealing lip seals against the neck.
  • this bending of the sealing lip has created a valve which, when there is sufficient differential pressure, that is to say when negative pressure is generated in the reservoir, allows air to enter the interior of the attachment if a certain vacuum has been created by the pumping process.
  • the length of the sealing lip which according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is between 2 and 6 mm, is also important in this context.
  • the length is also dependent on the hardness of the nitrile rubber used, ie with increasing hardness it is possible to work with shorter lengths, which reduces wear on the sealing lip, on the other hand the contact pressure must then be higher, ie in the upper one Range of the specified line pressure in order to achieve a good seal.
  • Electrically actuated dispensing devices have the great advantage that once they have been set to a specific dispensing quantity, they cannot be changed without undesired manipulation. In order to avoid the laying of electrical cables, they are usually equipped with their own power source, but must then be designed in such a way that they have minimal power consumption in order to be able to work independently of the network over a long period of time, i. That is, the batteries used should have a long life due to low power consumption.
  • Electromagnets require only a short current surge in order to be able to perform quite considerable work. If the battery is only loaded briefly, it is possible to use a lifting magnet to actuate a pump, the pump actuated in this way being a short-stroke pump.
  • the preferred embodiment is the connection between the electromagnet and the diaphragm pump.
  • Diaphragm pumps have the characteristic that initially only a slight pressure on the diaphragm is required, which must increase with increasing depth of indentation.
  • Electromagnets, in particular the lifting magnets have an analog characteristic, ie if the lifting magnet is switched on, it first exercises due to the relatively large gap distance only a small force. This force becomes stronger as the gap decreases.
  • the performance curves of the diaphragm pump and the solenoid therefore correspond, that is, they form an ideal combination.
  • the armature of the solenoid is expediently conical, so that a relatively large distance is available over which the magnetic field extends.
  • the lifting magnet has a pulling force of 1 - 100 N.
  • the range is preferably between 15 and 45 N.
  • the range from 1 to 20 N is suitable for dispensing small quantities, that is to say for dispensing relatively highly concentrated goods, such as disinfectants or perfume.
  • the range from 15 to 45 N fulfills the requirements which are generally placed on a soap dispenser which dispenses liquid or cream-like soap, whereas the upper range, that is to say the range between 50 and 100 N, is better suited for dispensing pasty goods which have a higher viscosity. Above 100 N, the current consumption increases despite the brief actuation of an electromagnet, so that the use of battery-operated electromagnets becomes uneconomical.
  • the stroke length of the magnetic armature is approx. 2 to 8 mm. Above 10 mm, the forces that are generated when the stroke movement is started are so low that considerable magnet sizes are required in order to achieve an effective movement at all. able to bring. On the other hand, this requires more electricity, * which is contrary to the task of developing an energy-saving unit.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the pump membrane is connected to the electromagnet via an actuating lever.
  • This actuating lever is designed as a two-armed lever, with the shorter of the two-armed levers normally being associated with the lifting magnet and the longer one with the diaphragm. This allows the movement, i.e. the stroke on the pump, to be controlled within fairly wide limits.
  • the control of the electromagnet by a proximity switch enables the non-contact dispensing of materials from the dispensing container without it being necessary, e.g. B. to install a foot switch, which would also ensure the hygienic conditions, but its installation means an increased outlay because it cannot be integrated into the housing of the output device. Furthermore, the separate installation of a switch in washrooms and toilets generally disrupts the cleaning of the floor.
  • a capacitive switch is particularly recommended because here the risk of misuse and damage is lower on the one hand than is the case, for example, with a switch consisting of a light barrier is.
  • Acoustic switches are often impaired by unintended effects, in which the noise source can be far outside the building, whereas the light barriers can be triggered to be triggered continuously by soiling and by, for example, placing paper on them.
  • the capacitive switch on the other hand, only responds to the change in capacitance, that is to say that it is triggered when the hand approaches the output device.
  • the proximity switch has a sensor circuit with two synchronously oscillating oscillators, one of which is designed as a fixed oscillator and the second can be influenced from the outside.
  • Such a circuit is designed so that both oscillators endeavor to always oscillate synchronously.
  • the circuit is very stable, ie ; that relatively strong changes in capacitance are required to trigger a false pulse.
  • the sensor circuit as such contains four NAND-Schmitt triggers, two of which are connected as oscillators, one of which serves as a fixed oscillator and the other as a variable oscillator which can be influenced by the sensor plate.
  • the third NAND-Schmitt trigger is provided as a phase discriminator with the interposition of a diode as a rectifier for the AC voltage generated in the phase discriminator and a fourth NAND-Schmitt trigger as a threshold switch. switches, with a differentiating capacitor being arranged behind the threshold switch, followed by a switching amplifier.
  • the proximity switch has a sensor circuit which consists of a CMOS IC and a sensor plate, a diode being connected between the sensor circuit and the current source and a capacitor connected in parallel with the sensor circuit.
  • the sensor plate is arranged under the housing of the dispensing device, so that the capacity changes when the hand comes closer under the dispenser.
  • the current source which consists of electrochemical elements, ie either contains a set of commercially available batteries or one or more rechargeable batteries, is connected to the sensor circuit via a diode, to which a capacitor is connected in parallel.
  • This circuit ensures that the capacitor is first charged to the terminal voltage of the power source, which in turn allows the power source, that is to say the batteries, to be used to the last, since the charging of the capacitor can also take place relatively slowly.
  • the capacitor When the circuit is actuated, the capacitor itself transfers its charge to the sensor circuit, the diode ensuring that the voltage now does not flow back to the current source.
  • the sensor circuit advantageously has a trimmer for adjusting the circuit.
  • This trimmer which runs as a trimmer capacitor can be used to compensate for the tolerances . that inevitably arise in the manufacture of the individual components of the circuit.
  • the response distance can be set by adjusting the sensor plate.
  • a shielding electrode it is also possible for a shielding electrode to be arranged in an adjustable manner. This makes it possible to detune the variable oscillator more or less.
  • both the fixed oscillator and the variable oscillator that is to say the two first NAND-Schmitt triggers, oscillate at essentially the same frequency.
  • This frequency changes as soon as a user's hand approaches the output device of the sensor plate, that is to say that an oscillation difference then occurs between the fixed oscillator and the variable oscillator.
  • This difference in vibration is evaluated by the third NAND-Schmitt trigger as a phase discriminator, ie an AC voltage is generated at its output.
  • This alternating voltage is rectified by the diode and supplied to the fourth NAND-Schmitt trigger as a threshold switch. If the voltage exceeds the threshold, a differential capacitor is applied, which is followed by a switching amplifier.
  • variable oscillator can be detuned within a certain range by means of a shielding electrode which can be varied with respect to the sensor plate, so that a permanent defined alternating voltage arises at the discriminator, which is converted by the rectifier into a direct voltage, this direct voltage however, is below the threshold voltage of the threshold switch.
  • the change in capacitance required to trigger the sensor circuit is significantly smaller, so that the response distance is increased.
  • a capacitor is connected in parallel with the current source. This advantageous arrangement also allows aging batteries to be used which have a higher internal resistance. The capacitor between the strokes is still charged and again reaches the terminal voltage of the battery, the electromotive force of which is practically constant when idling.
  • a change in capacity and thus the triggering of a circuit is not only achieved by approaching the hand, but also depends on many secondary circumstances.
  • the moisture in the wall on which the dispenser was mounted is included in the capacity, and the fill level of the dispenser is also included in the capacity. It would therefore be necessary, depending on the location of the donor, to give the donor a different capacity and in addition the capacity the respective level. It was previously thought that capacitive switches are absolutely unsuitable for such purposes.
  • the output device can be provided with a sensor circuit which is equipped with at least one shielding electrode which is connected to the zero potential.
  • At least one shielding electrode is advantageously U-shaped.
  • shielding electrodes enable the dispenser to be installed in any room without changing the capacity, i.e. both on damp and dry walls. Furthermore, when the fill level is changed in the dispensing device, there is no longer a change in capacitance.
  • the design of a shielding electrode in a U-shaped design simplifies the construction of the entire unit, since the U-shaped design simultaneously shields three sides, so that only one connection to the zero potential is required for three sides.
  • the shielding electrodes extend on the one hand along the fastening side of the dispenser, that is parallel to the wall to which the dispenser is to be attached, and they also extend below the dispensing container, with these two measures shielding against different wall moisture and different filling level given is. ⁇ o-
  • the side walls of the dispenser are expediently also shielded, if appropriate also the end wall, so that even if the dispenser is touched from the side, there is no output, which is particularly advantageous when cleaning the dispenser.
  • the response distance of the proximity switch is adjustable - the dispensers are usually located near the wash basin, generally even directly above the wash basin. In the latter case in particular, there may be the possibility that the distance between the wash basin and the proximity switch is too small due to special structural conditions, which already results in a change in capacity. Since it is now possible to make the capacitive switch less sensitive, that is to say that the hand has to be brought closer to the dispenser, it is possible to use also electrically actuatable dispensing devices wherever there is very limited space, the So donors very close to z. B. a sink must be brought up.
  • the sensor as such is usually charged with a lower voltage than the electromagnet drove. This also means that electricity consumption is lower. - If, for example, the electromagnet is operated via 5 mono cells, the current is supplied to the sensor on the third cell, ie the voltage is 4.5 volts.
  • a diode is connected between this tap and the sensor, and a capacitor is connected in parallel with the sensor.
  • the capacitor is charged via the diode.
  • the voltage in the cells drops, i.e. when the magnet or relay is actuated, the voltage also drops towards the sensor. This is avoided by the diode since it switches off as soon as the capacitor voltage is higher than the battery voltage.
  • the sensor is therefore fed directly from the capacitor. This capacitor could discharge back into the battery during actuation of the magnet if the diode were not interposed. Such a discharge would trigger a pumping motion, i.e. that is, the sensor would respond again and trigger the next circuit. The resulting cycle would continuously empty the soap dispenser.
  • the interposition of the diode is therefore of considerable importance.
  • the electronic components ie the power supply and the electromagnet, are arranged in a separate housing that can be separated from the output device.
  • This housing is expediently an insert which is provided with at least one catch.
  • the electromagnet When the electromagnet is actuated, the armature is moved in it. This movement must generally be transmitted to the pump membrane via an actuating arm. This means that • the electromagnet must be fixed absolutely rigidly in one position. It is therefore very important that the insert, which holds all electrical or electronic units, is provided with a catch so that it can be firmly anchored in the dispenser housing.
  • Electrochemical elements are used as the current source. This includes both commercially available batteries, for example mono cells, where several can be combined to form a set, and also accumulators which can be recharged after exhaustion. Both current sources deliver a low voltage and can therefore be used safely in wet rooms. Due to the low consumption, they guarantee a considerable dispensing time for the donor, which in normal use is approximately one year.
  • the dispenser is used carelessly, the case may arise that e.g. B. Soap gets from below to the housing and the capacity is affected. This is only possible if the dispenser is touched from below, i.e. the soap is deliberately transported to a place where it is not wanted. In such a case, the dispenser would remain blocked after a single dispensing because of its switching, so that further dispensing is not possible.
  • the sensor plate can come into contact with soap without adversely affecting the dispenser and continues to guarantee perfect functioning of the dispenser, even if the soap has dried on the sensor plate.
  • an additional, electrically conductive layer is applied that no further connection is required.
  • This electrically conductive layer may be applied by electroplating or vapor deposition, it could also be a sheet as additional coverage can be used.
  • the application of a conductive lacquer has proven to be particularly expedient, although all these materials must not be covered by a further dielectric.

  • the locking takes place in the right and left wing (117) of the electronics housing (101) by introducing catch windows (103) and by resilient tabs (119) arranged on the insertion side walls (118), which spring outwards from the insertion side wall (118) and thus engage in the catch windows (103) of the electronics housing (101).
  • these resilient tabs (119) are pressed inwards and only come out again at the catch window (103), where they lock the insert (68) in the intended position.
  • the electronics housing (101) only has parts in the area of the pocket (108) that are connected to the proximity switch (67) via the shielding contact (120) and the sensor contact (121).
  • the 14 shows the circuit diagram of the proximity switch (67), that is to say essentially the wiring of the units which are on the circuit board (104) are arranged.
  • the sensor plate (71) is connected to the variable oscillator (79) via a fixed capacitor (76), which is used to separate the DC voltage.
  • This variable oscillator (79) is designed as a feedback NAND-Schmitt trigger.
  • the resistor (78) serves as a feedback resistor and at the same time for setting the frequency. Furthermore, the frequency is set via the frequency adjustment capacitor (73). The same happens.
  • a resistor (77) is used to discharge the static charge on the sensor electrode.
  • the electrochemical element (72) Five monocells, each with a voltage of 1.5 volts, are used as the electrochemical element (72), so that the entire electrochemical element (72) has an operating voltage of 7.5 volts.
  • the voltage is branched off behind the third cell and fed via the supply diode (97) to the parallel IC capacitor (96), which is connected to the positive supply point (122) of the IC.
  • the outputs of the two oscillators (79, 80) are connected to the two inputs of the third NAND Schitt trigger, which is connected as a phase discriminator (81).
  • the NAND-Schmitt trigger (88) is connected to ground via the working resistor (89) and also has a connection to measuring point M, which is used to level the device.
  • a charging capacitor (87) is connected in parallel to the short-circuiting diode (86) and is arranged in front of the NANDSchmitt trigger (88), to which the charging resistor is connected
  • the connecting capacitor (98) is arranged parallel to the electrochemical element (72), so that the electromagnet (65) is always supplied with the full voltage when the power transistor (100) responds.
  • the base of the power transistor (100) and the driver transistor (99) are connected to ground via an emitter resistor (94).

Abstract

Un distributeur de désinfectants comprend une fixation murale (1), un chapeau (20), une insertion (2), un réservoir (49) et un module (21) agencé au fond (13) de l'insertion (2). La partie supérieure du module (21) comprend un tube (22) qui entoure un support (27) pour une lame (26) utilisée pour découper la pellicule de couverture (51) du col (50) du réservoir (49). Le tube (22) est pourvu de gradins extérieurs annulaires (123) sur lesquels repose un soufflet (23) pourvu d'un rebord d'étanchéité (124). Le rebord d'étanchéité (124) fait saillie dans l'espace intérieur (125) du tube (122), scellant ainsi le col (50) du réservoir (49).
