Abstract
An aerosol dispensing container 1 comprising a container body 20, 30, 40 and a collapsible bag 50 therein. The bag 50 separates a pressurised chamber defined between the container body 20, 30, 40 and the bag 50 from a product chamber defined inside the bag 50. A valve 5 is mounted in a valve cup 70 supported by the body 20, 30, 40 and the valve arrangement allows fluid communication between the valve 5 and the product chamber inside the bag 50. An extrinsic support means 54, 55 is carried by the bag 50 and is adapted to ensure flow of product to the valve 5 by preventing radial collapse of the bag 50, whilst allowing axial collapse of the bag 50 as the product is dispensed.
Description
- The present invention relates to aerosol containers comprising an outer casing with a bag for product encapsulated therein. Such containers are commonly referred to in the art as bag-in-can aerosols.
- In particular, the invention relates to adaptation of such bag-in-can systems to allow expulsion of viscous products, for example in the form of pastes or thick gels. Such products may include adhesives, sealants and fillers.
- Bag-in can aerosol dispensers have been known from the prior art since the 1960′s. For example, GB 1030596 (ALLIED CHEM) May 22, 1966 describes the manufacturing method used for production of a nylon bag and its incorporation into such an aerosol container.
- In later years, such systems were enhanced to provide various improvements to the bag structure and dispensing characteristics. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,539,083 (DART IND INC) Nov. 10, 1970 describes modification of the bag and can structure to ensure that the bag cavity fills the can and also the incorporation of a dip tube inside the bag to ensure that when the valve is opened, product being dispensed from the container does not itself throttle further product dispensing. U.S. Pat. No. 4,148,416 (METAL BOX CO LTD) Oct. 4, 1979 describes a loose core member within the bag, which prevents the formation of “pockets” within the product as the bag collapses and product is dispensed.
- Whilst the disclosure in the prior art is suitable for many products, such aerosols are now being proposed for more challenging, viscous products. The viscosity of the products now being considered for such bag-in-can technology exacerbates the problems of throttling the product flow from the aerosol valve and the uneven or even lack of dispensing of some product from the container.
- Where a product is very thick the bag-in-can system will tend to dispense the product nearest the valve adequately. However, as product is dispensed the bag tends to collapse near the valve, sealing the path between the remaining product and the valve. Thus, it becomes very difficult or impossible to expel some of the product, which remains trapped within the aerosol container. The viscosity of the product means that the use of a dip tub is impractical and a free-floating core will not provide a flow path necessary to dispense the product.
- Historically, bags with pleats or folds created using only the material of the bag sidewall, “pleated bags”, have been a popular way of trying to control the collapsing of the product bag. The bags are typically made from a plastics material and are shaped using conventional blow-moulding techniques to introduce folds or pleats in the bag sidewall. These folds or pleats are usually ‘V’ or ‘U’-shaped in transverse cross-section and generally have a decreasing sidewall thickness as the diameter of the bag increases from its pre-shaped form due to stretching of the material. Their effect is to introduce an annular or circumferential weakening or bands in the bag, which permits the bag to collapse under applied forces. U.S. Pat. No. 3,471,059 A (J. L. MOLLER ET AL) Oct. 7, 1969 describes a dispensing container with such a pleated bag. The bag is formed from an integral piece of material and includes axially spaced primary fold sections and secondary fold bands collapsible subsequent to the collapse of the primary fold sections. The intention of the paneling is to regulate the collapse of the bag caused by the pressure forces acting on it radially and axially as product is dispensed. U.S. Pat. No. 4,062,475 A (HARRIS AND MONSON) Dec. 13, 1977 also describes in one particular embodiment a bag (flexible liner, 9) with horizontally pleated sides. Again, the Figures of U.S. Pat. No. 4,056,213 A (MARTIN PAINT) Nov. 1, 1977 show a pleated bag with the pleats or folds forming a collapsible bellows or piston. In GB 1116423 A (CONTINENTAL CAN) Feb. 28, 1967 such folds are used both to rigidify the bag (circumferentially extending first means, 25) and to regulate the collapse of the bag (circumferentially extending second means, 26). In practice however a pleated collapsible bag does not work very well; the inventor has found that pleated bags are prone to collapsing inwardly radially despite the teachings of Moller, Harris, Martin Paint and Continental Can. The decreasing bag sidewall thickness of the pleats or folds is insufficient, especially in combination with highly viscous products, to withstand the pressure of the propellants used these days and pleated bags still tend to collapse uncontrollably resulting in undispensed product. There remains the need to provide a strong product bag which will collapse predictably under the applied influence of propellant and the inventor has found that only extrinsic support means, i.e. those added to the bag, as opposed to intrinsic support means which are made out of the bag material such as folds or pleats, will suffice.
- Accordingly, the present invention provides an aerosol dispensing container comprising a container body and a collapsible bag therein to separate a pressurised chamber defined between the container body and the bag from a product chamber defined by the bag, and an actuating valve carried by the container body and arranged in fluid communication with the product chamber, characterised in that the bag includes extrinsic support means adapted to prevent radial collapse of the bag to maintain flow of product to the valve whilst allowing axial collapse of the bag as the product is dispensed.
- As product is dispensed from the aerosol container, the bag tends to collapse radially, but the support means keeps the walls of the bag at a defined distance, preventing further radial collapse and defining a flow path for the remaining product to the aerosol valve.
- The inventor has used both a cage-like structure and subsequently a conventional spring as the support means with similar results. The cage or spring is preferably located inside the bag and it is therefore submerged in the product. Therefore, the material from which the cage or spring is made must be chosen carefully. The cage or spring must not be adversely affected by the product (e.g. it must not corrode) and neither must it adversely affect the product (e.g. by chemical reaction). The cage or spring should also be arranged so that it does not inhibit or prevent the flow of product to the actuating valve.
- Different embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 shows a cut away isometric drawing of a prior art aerosol container with bag and an expanded area of the top section of this container. -
FIG. 2 shows a cross section view through an aerosol container according to the invention with a helical spring located inside the bag. -
FIG. 3 shows a cross section through the same aerosol container as that shown inFIG. 2 , after the contents of the bag has been dispensed and the helical spring is compressed. -
FIG. 4 shows a cross section view through an aerosol container according to a second embodiment of the invention where ribs are situated within the product compartment and are adapted to define a bellows structure, which prevents radial collapse of the bag, whilst allowing axial compression of the bag. -
FIG. 5 shows a cross section view through an aerosol container according to another embodiment of the invention, in which the bag sidewall incorporates ribs designed to prevent radial collapse of the bag, whilst allowing axial compression of the bag. - Referring to
FIG. 1 , a priorart aerosol container 1 comprises abody 30 having abase 20 and acone 40. The free edge of thecone 40 is finished with acurl 42. Thebase 20 andcone 40 are connected to thebody 30 using conventional joining methods, such as a double seam. Thebase 20 defines a charging port oraperture 25, through which propellant is inserted into theaerosol container 1, the propellant being used to drive any product in theaerosol container 1 out of thevalve 5, when it is opened. The propellant may either take the form of a liquidified propellant or a compressed gas. - The
aerosol container 1 shown inFIG. 1 is a conventional “bag in can” aerosol. Abag 50 is inserted into thebody 30. The inside of thebag 50 defines a product compartment and the space left outside thebag 50, between thebag 50 and thebody 30, defines a propellant compartment into which propellant is introduced via thecharging port 25. Once propellant has been inserted into the propellant compartment, thecharging port 25 is sealed with agrommet 26. -
FIG. 2 illustrates a first embodiment of the invention, in which aspring 54 is inserted into theneck 57 of thebag 50 in the vicinity of thevalve 5. Thevalve 5 is mounted in avalve cup 70 and is arranged in fluid communication with the product compartment inside thebag 50. Thespring 54 is arranged to brace thesidewall 53 of the bag against radial collapse, whilst allowing thebase 52 of the bag to collapse axially. -
FIG. 3 illustrates the same embodiment of the invention asFIG. 2 , but this figure shows thespring 54 in its compressed configuration. As product is forced out of thevalve 5, by the propellant acting on thebag 50, thespring 54 braces thebag 50 and prevents radial collapse. This ensures that the flow path of product to thevalve 5 is maintained. As product is used up thespring 54 compresses axially, ensuring that most of the product is dispensed from thebag 50 through thevalve 5. - A disadvantage of this arrangement is that the
spring 54 is submerged in the product inside thebag 50. This may cause thespring 54 to become “clogged” by the product, thus restricting its effective operation. In order to overcome this problem, thespring 54 may need to be made of more expensive materials (such as stainless steel), which is uneconomic for many aerosol applications. Spring materials that are inert in the presence of a wide variety of products are prohibitively expensive, often costing many times the cost of the finished aerosol product on the supermarket shelf. - To avoid “clogging” of the spring, the inventor has designed an alternative bag arrangement (as shown in
FIG. 4 ), in whichribs 55 are provided around the circumference of thebag 50 in fluid communication with the product compartment, thesidewall 53 in between theribs 55 acting as a flexible web. Theribs 55 and theflexible sidewall 53 therebetween form a bellows structure. Theribs 55 are adapted to prevent radial collapse of thebag 50 whilst the bellows structure allows axial compression of thebag 50. Theribs 55 can be of any cross-section, for example, hexagonal, but preferably they have a circular cross-section. A disadvantage of this bellows structure is that it is difficult to manufacture and makes assembly of thebag 50 inside theaerosol body 30 complex. -
FIG. 5 shows a third embodiment of the invention, which requires no spring or like component inside thebag 50 and noribs 55, which are difficult to assemble inside theaerosol body 30. In this embodiment of the invention, one ormore ribs 55 are provided integrally with thesidewall 53 of thebag 50. Theribs 55 may be arranged to form a helix or may be provided as segments of a helix, i.e. they may be continuous or discontinuous. Theribs 55 are designed and arranged to restrict radial collapse of thebag 50, whilst allowing axial compression of thebag 50 in much the same way as the spring 54 (shown inFIGS. 2 and 3 ) and theribs 55 shown inFIG. 4 .
