Push-Button For A System For Dispensing A Product Under Pressure
A push-button for a system for dispensing a product under pressure, the push-button including a body having a mounting well on a feed tube for the pressurised product and a housing in communication with the well, the housing being provided with an anvil around which a spray nozzle is mounted in such a way as to form a path for dispensing the product between the housing and a swirl array including at least two swirl chambers, each of the swirl chambers including at least one supply channel in order to provide for the setting in rotation of the product in the chamber and a channel for dispensing a flow of product set in rotation, the dispensing channels each converging from an inlet orifice towards an outlet orifice according to an angle which is arranged in order to allow for the impaction of the flows of product dispensed by the channels.
1 . A push-button for a system for dispensing a product under pressure, said push-button comprising a body having a mounting well on a feed tube for the product under pressure and a housing in communication with said well, said housing being provided with an anvil around which a spray nozzle is mounted in such a way as to form a path for dispensing the product between said housing and a swirl array comprising at least two swirl chambers, each of said swirl chambers comprising at least one supply channel in order to provide for the setting in rotation of the product in said chamber and a channel for dispensing a flow of product set in rotation, said dispensing channels each converging from an inlet orifice towards an outlet orifice according to an angle which is arranged in order to allow for the impaction of the flows of product dispensed by said channels.
2 . The push-button according to claim 1 , characterised in that the swirl chambers have a cylindrical geometry of revolution which is supplied tangentially by at least one supply channel.
3 . The push-button according to claim 2 , characterised in that each swirl chamber comprises a single supply channel with the inlet orifice of the dispensing channel being off-centred opposite said supply channel.
4 . The push-button, according to claim 1 , characterised in that the impaction of the flows of product set in rotation is carried out during their transitional phase of unstable flow.
5 . The push-button according to claim 4 , characterised in that the distance (d) between the outlet orifices and the point (P) of impaction of the flows of product is between 1 and 5 mm.
6 . The push-button according to claim 1 , characterised in that the nozzle has a proximal wall wherein is formed an imprint of the swirl array and the anvil has a distal wall forming a planar bearing surface whereon the proximal wall of the nozzle is pressing in order to delimit said swirl array between said walls.
7 . The push-button according to claim 1 , characterised in that the nozzle has a front housing wherein exit the outlet orifices, with the angle of convergence of the dispensing channels being arranged in order to allow for the impaction of the flows of product inside said housing.
8 . The push-button according to claim 1 , characterised in that the dispensing path has axial ducts, each supply channel communicating with one of said axial ducts.
9 . The push-button according to claim 8 , characterised in that each axial duct is formed between two spacers which extend over an internal surface of the nozzle.
10 . A system for dispensing a product under pressure, comprising a device for sampling provided with a feed tube for the product under pressure whereon the well of a push-button according to claim 1 is mounted in order to allow for the spraying of the product.
