Patent NZ-302371-A (NZ)
Title: Valve mounting assembly for aerosol containers and method
Inventor: BLAKE ROBERT R
IPC: B65D83/42
Filed: 1996-01-31
Abstract: A valve mounting assembly for an aerosol container comprising a mounting cup and a sleeve gasket initially positioned on at least a substantial portion of the skirt of the mounting cup.  The sleeve gasket has an axial height and radial thickness of from about 0.080 to 0.150 inches and from about 0.030 to 0.060 inches, respectively; said dimension being preferably from about 0.090 to 0.140 inches and from about 0.035 to 0.055 inches, respectively and said dimensions most preferably being from about 0.100 to 0.130 inches and from about 0.040 to 0.050 inches.  In a method herein, the gasket is advanced onto the skirt of the mounting cup, and then advanced into the annular channel of the mounting cup and deformed about 90 to form a gasket of dimensions equivalent to a cut gasket.  The gasket may be cut from an extruded tube of gasket material, which can be cut to very precise longitudinal dimensions. When the gasket is turned about 90 in the channel of the mounting cup, the gasket is turned into a shape approximately that of a cut gasket and the original axial dimension of the gasket becomes its radial thickness.  In this way, a cut gasket shape can be achieved having precise inner and outer dimensions without requiring any milling of the gasket material, as has been previously required with extruded cut gaskets. Also, if desired, the gasket may be heated, or an adhesive may be used, to hold the gasket in the desired shape in the annular channel of the mounting cup.

Title: Dispenser for capsules and like elongate articles with a ramp arrangement for orienting and positioning articles to be dispensed
Inventor: BUNCE MARTIN
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 1997-06-23
Abstract: Apparatus for orienting elongate objects, for example capsules of medicament (8), comprises a passage (9) for receiving an individual capsule in a preferred orientation, a container (12) for holding a bulk supply of capsules, and a ramp surface (13) which directs a capsule towards the passage (9) when the device is positioned such that the passage extends vertically downwardly from the container. It has been found that by appropriate choice of ramp angle, passage diameter and container diameter there is a high probability that a single capsule will be loaded into the dispensing passage when the apparatus is inverted to place the dispensing passage below the bulk supply. The apparatus is particularly useful in a dry medicament dispensing apparatus comprising, in addition to the orienting apparatus, a chamber (7) for receiving capsules from the dispensing passage (9), means for piercing the ends of the capsule, and a mouthpiece (M) for drawing air through the capsule to entrain the medicament. <IMAGE>
