Abstract

An open ended cylindrical connector 3 comprising: an internally smooth-surfaced, first, docking port at one end; an internally screw threaded 7, second, docking port at the other end; a "top hat" type open ended circular hole-cutter 10 located between the docking ports facing the fast docking port; and, a coarse screen sieve 5 located across the cylindrical connector between the hole-cutter and the second docking port. Product is transferred from a sealed donating container to a receiving container by screwing the receiving container into the second docking port and subsequently pressing a membrane-sealed donating container into the first docking port. The seal on the donating container is punctured by the hole-cutter and its contents flow through the cylindrical connector to the receiving container. The donating container docking port may be closed with a removable cap and the cylindrical connector used as a donating container screw cap. A non-cutting lip deflector 16b may also be provided.

Description

Device for Transfer of Product from Refill Container to Spray Applicator without Exposure to Atmosphere Area of Invention The invention concerns a device designed to enable the transfer of a measured quantity of water soluble solid or concentrated aqueous product from a storage container to a re-usable, graduated, spray applicator vessel for dissolution in or dilution with a known volume of water, whilst confining the material being transferred to the device.
Background to the Invention
A vast number of devices for diluting concentrated liquid products within the confines of a spray or other applicator are found in the literature. Although the devices and systems are functional, they are difficult to make and/or awkward to fill. Accordingly, these systems are often both expensive to make and fill with respect to man hours and raw materials and non-recyclable, making them economically and ecologically unattractive. The dissolution of water soluble solid (tablet, granule, pellet or powder) within a closed spray applicator system is also known. Known systems designed to dissolve water soluble solids suffer the same drawbacks as discussed above and systems based on water soluble sachets etc additionally present difficulties of spray-head blockage from residues of the packaging material or the inconvenience of having to adjust the chemistry of the water used to create the diluted solution.
The present invention avoids all the problems and difficulties associated with prior art systems and devices.
Summary of the Invention
This invention concerns a cylindrical connecting device one end of which is internally threaded to accommodate the external thread on the neck of a spray pump vessel while the other end is smooth bored with an internal diameter accepting with tight fit the external thread on the neck of a concentrate refill container. The threaded and smooth bore areas of the connector are separated by an annular bulkhead running around the centre and serving as an anchor point for a "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter facing away from the threaded area of the connector with its cutting edge angled obliquely to the plane of the annular bulkhead.
The invention is designed to work with two conventional components: -a concentrate refill container possessing an externally threaded neck, compatible with the internal thread of the invention, the mouth of which is sealed with a protective anti-contamination membrane following filling with a known quantity of the water soluble solid or concentrated liquid, and; -a graduated spray-pump vessel with a spray-pump fitted by way of an external thread on the neck compatible with the internal thread of the invention.
In use, the invention is screwed down onto a re-usable spray-pump vessel, with spray-pump removed, filled with water to the required graduation mark. The neck of the concentrate refill container, which contains a known amount of material, is pushed firmly down onto the "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter until the obliquely angled cutting edge of the hole-cutter partially penetrates the protective anti-contamination membrane of the concentrate refill container, punching out a partial circular hole and allowing the material in the concentrate refill container to pass through the connecting cylinder into the spray-pump vessel under gravity.
Following dissolution or dilution the system is inverted several times to capture all the concentrate refill container contents, the invention is removed from the spray-pump vessel and the spray-head pump is refitted. An accurately known concentration of the material is achieved in the spray-pump vessel without contact with the material originally in the concentrate refill container. The spray-pump vessel and the invention (cylindrical connector) are re-usable.
Details of the Invention The invention and its use will now be described in detail with reference to drawings 1 -8.
Drawing 1 shows in cross section the cylindrical connecting device (3), which may be formed from any suitable plastic or plastic/metallic composite material, with an internal female screw thread (7) running from one end to an internal annular bulkhead (9) situated in the centre of the cylinder which serves to anchor a "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter (10) by any practical means. Drawing 1 shows a method on anchoring the "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter (10) by lodging its flange (11) against the internal annular bulkhead (9) and holding it firmly in place by occupying the thread (7) with the spray-pump vessel (1) to be refilled. The internal wall of the cylindrical connecting device (3) above the annular bulkhead (9) is smooth bore with an internal diameter enabling the male screw thread on the neck of the concentrate refill container (see drawing 8) to enter with a snug push-fit This smooth bore end of the connecting device may optionally be sealed with a detachable cover (13) constructed of any suitable materials. The width (w) of the internal annular bulkhead will vary with the height of the "Top Hat" type open-ended hole-cutter and the angle of the cuthng edge to the horizontal. It must not be more than the highest point of the cutting edge, not less than the lowest height of the cutting edge and preferably 75% to 90% of the distance between the highest and lowest height of the cutting edge. A coarse sieve (5) may optionally be deployed across the cylindrical connecting device (3) from the inner wall of the annular bulkhead (9) in order to ensure that any solid material detached by the "Top Hat" hole-cutter is prevented from passing out of the cylindrical connecting device (3).
Drawing 2a and 2b show a "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter, in isolation and from two perspectives, which may be formed from any suitable material including metal and plastic capable of taking a cutting edge,. Drawing 2a shows a top view of the flange (11), which is pressed against the annular bulkhead (9) of the cylindrical connector (see drawing 1), and the position of the cutting edge (14).
Drawing 2b is a cross section through the axis X-Y (shown in drawing 2a) and shows the cutting edge (14) ,which is formed at an angle of from 10 to 45 degrees, preferably from 20-35 degrees from the horizontal Drawing 3a and 3b show an alternative "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter, in isolation and from two perspectives, which may be formed from any suitable material induding metals and plastics capable of taking a cutting edge. Drawing 3a shows a top view of the flange (ha), which is pressed against the annular bulkhead (9) of the cylindrical connector (3), and the cylindrical cutting edge (14a). Drawing 3b is a cross section through the axis X-Y (shown in drawing 3a) and shows the cutting edge (14a), which is formed at an angle of from 10 to 45 degrees preferably from 20-35 degrees from the horizontal, with a chord subtended by an angle of from 73 degrees to 120 degrees, preferably from 90 degrees to 100 degrees at the centre of the circular cutter defining a minor segment of the circular cutting edge that is horizontal and therefore a non-cutting edge (15a).
Drawing 4a and 4b show a further alternative "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter, in isolation and from two perspectives, which may be formed from any suitable material including metals and plastics capable of taking a cutting edge and being flexible. Drawing 4a shows a top view of the flange (11), which is pressed against the annular bulkhead (9) of the cylindrical connector (3), the cutting edge (14b) and the non-cutting lip (12) which prevents a full circular cut and leaves the material partially cut from the protective anti-contamination membrane (8) (see thawing 8) still attached to the membrane. Drawing 4b is a cross section through the axis X---Y (shown in drawing 4a) and shows the cutting edge (14b), which is formed at an angle of from 10 to 45 degrees, preferably from 20-35 degrees from the horizontal and the non-cutting lip-deflector (12) which rises above the cutting edge occupying a minor segment of the circular hole cutter wall circunference defined by a chord subtended by an angle of from 73 degrees to 120 degrees, preferably from 90 degrees to 100 degrees at the centre of the circular cutter, flexible enough to be bent over by a membrane pressed down onto it until the cutting edge has cut sufficient of a hole for the non-cutting lip-deflector to spring back and deflect the membrane flap back and clear of the hole cut Drawing 5 shows an alternative design of cylindrical connector (3b) suitable for use with a "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter which is fully integrated or a design (lOb) that interlocks the cutter flange with the annular bulkhead, to prevent its rotation, which may be formed from any suitable plastic or plastic/metallic composite material, with an internal screw thread (7) running from one end to an internal annular bulkhead (9b) possessing a lug on its underside to engage with the "lop Hat" type open ended hole-cutter (lOb) flange. At the same location on the circumference of the annular bulkhead as the lug, a sliff deflector structure (16b) protrudes 0.6 to 0.9x the radius of the hole-cutter from the topside of the annular bulkhead at an angle slanted toward the centre of the cylindrical connector attached by a joint flexible enough to be bent over when a membrane (such as (8) -drawing 8) is pressed down onto it until the cutting edge has cut sufficient of a hole for the deflector protrusion to spring back and deflect the membrane flap back to dear the hole cut The internal wall of the cylindrical connecting device (3b) above the annular bulkhead (9b) is smooth bore with an internal diameter enabling the external thread on the neck of the concentrate refill container to enter with a snug push-fit The non-threaded end of the connecting device is sealed with a detachable cover (13b) constructed of any suitable materials. The width (w) of the annular bulkhead will vary with the height of the "iop Hat" type open ended hole-cutter and the angle of the cutting edge to horizontal. The width must not be more than the highest point of the cutting edge, not less than the lowest height of the cutting edge and most preferably 75% to 90% of the distance between the highest and lowest height of the cutting edge.
Drawing 6a and 6b show a further alternative "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter (lOb) from two perspectives. It may be formed from any suitable material induding metal and plastic capable of taking a cutting edge. Drawing 6a shows a top view of the flange (lib) which is notched (17b) in the X -Y plane and which is pressed against the annular bulkhead of the cylindrical connector, and the cylindrical cutting edge (14b). Drawing 6b is a cross section through the axis X-Y (shown in drawing 6a) and shows the cutting edge (14b), which is formed at an angle of 10 to 45 degrees preferably 20-35 degrees from the horizontal.
Drawing 7 shows the cylindrical connector (3) with its detachable lid removed in position for a transfer operation mounted on the spray vessel (1) the screw threaded neck of which is engaged in the cylindrical connector thread (7) and holding the flange (11) of the "Top Hat" type open ended hole-cutter firmly against the annular bulkhead (9) of the cylindrical connector (3) Drawing 8 shows an optional configuration of the cylindrical connector (3) when used as a screw-cap for the concentrate refill container (2) which is sealed with an anti-contamination membrane (8). Drawing 8 also illustrates the need for the inside diameter (A) of the smooth bored upper half of the cylindrical connector to equal the outside diameter (A#) of the refill container screw thiead.
Uses of the invention In a first embodiment the invention is used to prepare accurate working strength aqueous solution of powdered product or concentrated liquid products. in this embodiment the cylindrical connector (3) is firmly threaded onto a suitable spray vessel (1) with the spray-head removed, containing a known volume of water and with the detachable lid (13) removed (see drawing 7). A sealed concentrate refill container (2) containing a known quantity of powdered product or concentrated liquid product, and sealed across the neck with an anti-contamination membrane (8), is inserted into the free end of the cylindrical connector and pushed firmly down until the hole-cutter penetrates the protective anti-contamination membrane (8) to form a hole and allow the contents of the concentrate refill container to fall through into the spray-vesseL Once the concentrated product is dissolved or diluted the assembly is inverted briefly several times to dear all product from the concentrate refill container. Once the cylindrical connector and concentrate refill container are removed from the spray vessel and the spray-head is replaced the spray pump is ready to deliver a known concentration of working strength solution. It is understood that the spray-vessel may be replaced by any container with a male-threaded neck compatible with the female thread of the cylindrical connector (3).
In a second embodiment of the invention (see drawing 8) the cylindrical connector (3) is used as a screw-cap for the sealed concentrate refill container (2).
