Pour assurer une distribution de la majeure partie du produit contenu dans le reservoir, on prevo it generalement, pour le moins dans les disp ositifs utilis es en o position droite, un tube-plongeur s'etendant jusqutau fond du reservoir. Afin d'assurer une vidange optimale lorsque l'on arrive vers la fin du produit, il est souvent prevu de disposer l'extremite inferieure du tube-plongeur au niveau d'un bord lateral du fond du reservoir, de sorte qu'avec une faible inclinaison audit reservoir, on arrive pratiquement a distribuer la totalite du produit a travers le  To ensure a distribution of the major part of the product contained in the reservoir, it is generally provided, at least in the devices used in an upright position, a dip tube extending to the bottom of the reservoir. In order to ensure optimal emptying when the end of the product is reached, it is often planned to arrange the lower end of the dip tube at a lateral edge of the bottom of the tank, so that with a low inclination to said reservoir, we can practically distribute the entire product through the

Selon une premiere solution, le tube-plongeur est flexible et legerement plus long en direction axiale que la profondeur du reservoir, de sorte que lors de ['assemblage de la pompe sur le resenoir, l'extremite inferieure du tube-plongeur vient buter contre ce fond du reservoir et de par sa flexibilite, est flechi ou plie en direction d'un bord inferieur lateral audit reservoir. Cette mise en ccuvre ntest toutefois pas toujours possible, notamment lorsque le tube-plongeur est realise de maniere monobloc avec une partie s'etendant a l'interieur du corps de pompe, ce  According to a first solution, the dip tube is flexible and slightly longer in the axial direction than the depth of the reservoir, so that when the pump is assembled on the container, the lower end of the dip tube abuts against this bottom of the tank and by its flexibility, is bent or folded in the direction of a lower edge lateral to said tank. However, this implementation is not always possible, especially when the dip tube is made in one piece with a part extending inside the pump body, this

D'autre part, l'utilisation de tubes-plongeurs flexibles peut dans certains systemes d' assemblage etre un inconvenient, en particulier lorsque les diametres de l'ouverture du reservoir vent tres petite, et que les cadences d'assemblage vent elevees. Ceci peut avoir pour consequence que le tube-plongeur ne penetre pas a l'interieur du reservoir lors de cet assemblage. Une autre solution adoptee pour placer l'extremite inferieure du tube-plongeur au niveau d'un bord lateral inferieur du reservoir consiste a assembler directement un tube-plongeur incline sur la pompe, puis d'assembler cette pompe avec ledit tube- plongeur incline a  On the other hand, the use of flexible dip tubes can in certain assembly systems be a drawback, in particular when the diameters of the opening of the tank are very small, and the assembly rates are high. This may have the consequence that the dip tube does not penetrate inside the tank during this assembly. Another solution adopted for placing the lower end of the dip tube at a lower lateral edge of the reservoir consists in directly assembling an inclined dip tube on the pump, then assembling this pump with said inclined dip tube

En reference aux dessins, la pompe comporte un corps de pompe 10 ayant un axe longitudinal A. Le corps de pompe 10 se prolonge a l'interieur d'un s resenoir 2, dont seulement le col est represente schematiquement sur les figures 2 et 3, au moyen d'un tube-plongeur 90. La pompe peut etre assemblee sur le reservoir au moyen d'une bague de fixation 1 qui peut etre quelconque, et notamment vissable, sertissable ou encliquetable. Generalement, un joint de col est interpose entre la bague de fixation 1 et le col du reservoir 2. La pompe o representee sur les dessins comporte un premier piston 50 relic, de preference de maniere monobloc, a une tige d'actionnement 60, qui est de preference creuse et qui incorpore un canal d'expulsion 61. L'utilisateur exerce une force axiale sur ladite tige d'actionnement 60, par exemple au moyen d'un poussoir ou d'une tete de distribution (non representee). La pompe representee sur les dessins comporte s en outre un second piston 55 qui coulisse dans une partie du corps de pompe ayant un diametre reduit. Une chambre de pompe 20 est definie entre un clapet d'entree 30 et un clapet de sortie 40. Un ressort de rappel 70 est prevu dans la pompe pour solliciter automatiquement la pompe vers sa position de repos, et la ramener vers cette position apres chaque actionnement. En outre, un element de butee, tel qutune virole 80, est assemble dans le bord superieur du corps de  With reference to the drawings, the pump comprises a pump body 10 having a longitudinal axis A. The pump body 10 extends inside a reservoir 2, of which only the neck is shown diagrammatically in FIGS. 2 and 3 , by means of a dip tube 90. The pump can be assembled on the reservoir by means of a fixing ring 1 which can be any, and in particular screwable, crimpable or snap-on. Generally, a neck seal is interposed between the fixing ring 1 and the neck of the reservoir 2. The pump represented in the drawings comprises a first piston 50 connected, preferably in a single piece, to an actuating rod 60, which is preferably hollow and which incorporates an expulsion channel 61. The user exerts an axial force on said actuating rod 60, for example by means of a pusher or a dispensing head (not shown). The pump shown in the drawings further comprises a second piston 55 which slides in a part of the pump body having a reduced diameter. A pump chamber 20 is defined between an inlet valve 30 and an outlet valve 40. A return spring 70 is provided in the pump to automatically bias the pump towards its rest position, and bring it back to this position after each actuation. In addition, a stop element, such as a ferrule 80, is assembled in the upper edge of the body of

Selon ['invention, le tube-plongeur 90 est sensiblement rigide et stetend axialement le long de l'axe longitudinal A de la pompe avant assemblage de la pompe sur le reservoir. La position avant assemblage est representee sur les figures 1 et 3. Le fait que le tube-plongeur soit rigide et qu'il s'etende le long de s l'axe longitudinal A de la pompe facilite ['assemblage, et elimine tout risque de dysfonctiorinement de la machine d'assemblage de la pompe sur le reservoir, notamment lorsque ltembouchure du reservoir est de faible dimension. Pour assurer une vidange optimale du produit contenu dans le reservoir, il est sonha*able que ltextremite inferieure 99 du tube-plongeur 90 soit positionnee, o apres assemblage, au niveau d'un bord lateral inferieur du reservoir. Pour se faire, le tube-plongeur 90 sensiblement rigide comporte des moyens de pliage ou inclinais on 95 adaptes a plier ou incliner le tub e- plongeur 9 0 apres son assemblage dans le reservoir, de sorte que ledit tube-plongeur 90 fait un angIe  According to the invention, the dip tube 90 is substantially rigid and axially extends along the longitudinal axis A of the pump before assembly of the pump on the reservoir. The position before assembly is shown in Figures 1 and 3. The fact that the dip tube is rigid and that it extends along the longitudinal axis A of the pump facilitates assembly, and eliminates any risk malfunction of the pump assembly machine on the reservoir, especially when the mouth of the reservoir is small. To ensure optimum drainage of the product contained in the reservoir, it is desirable that the lower end 99 of the dip tube 90 be positioned, or after assembly, at a lower lateral edge of the reservoir. To do this, the substantially rigid dip tube 90 comprises folding or tilting means 95 adapted to bend or tilt the dip tube 9 0 after its assembly in the tank, so that said dip tube 90 makes an angle.

s Les figures 1 et 2 montrent un premier mode de realisation de ['invention.  s Figures 1 and 2 show a first embodiment of the invention.

Dans ce premier mode de realisation, les moyens de pliage ou d'inclinaison 95 vent realises sous la forme d'une zone de pliage 95. Celle-ci peut avantageusement etre formee sur le tube-plongeur au moyen d'une partie de paroi de plus faible epaisseur audit tube-plongeur. De preference, cette zone de o pliage 95 est disposee a proximite du corps de pompe 10, de sorte que l'inclinaison ou le pliage du tube-plongeur 90 se fait le plus pres possible audit corps de pompe 10. Dans l'exemple de realisation des figures 1 et 2, le tube plongeur 90 est realise de maniere monobloc avec une bride annulaire radiale 91 et un tube axial creux 92. La bride annulaire radiale 91 coopere a l'interieur du  In this first embodiment, the folding or tilting means 95 are produced in the form of a folding zone 95. This can advantageously be formed on the dip tube by means of a wall portion of smaller thickness at said dip tube. Preferably, this bending zone 95 is arranged close to the pump body 10, so that the inclination or the folding of the dip tube 90 takes place as close as possible to said pump body 10. In the example of embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2, the dip tube 90 is produced in a single piece with a radial annular flange 91 and a hollow axial tube 92. The radial annular flange 91 cooperates inside the

En effet, a  Wile can support the spring 70 of the pump. The hollow axial tube 92 extends along the longitudinal axis from said radial annular flange 91 towards the interior of the pump body 10, and is advantageously intended to be connected to the inlet valve 30 of the chamber. pump 20. The fact that this dip tube is o made in one piece with this radial annular flange 91 and this hollow axial tube 92 implies that the dip tube can be substantially rigid. Indeed, a

6 28387236 2838723

la fois la bride annulaire radiale 91 et le tube axial creux 92 doivent etre rigides, de sorte qu'il n'est pas possible de realiser avec le meme materiau et de maniere monobloc un tube-plongeur 90 qui lui serait flexible. La presente invention, selon ce premier mode de realisation des figures 1 et 2, permet done de realiser s un tel tube-plongeur moule rigide, tout en permettant une vidange optimale du resenoir en prevoyant cette zone de pliage 95 qui permet au tube-plongeur, lors de ['assemblage dans le reservoir, de se plier pour que ltextremite inferieure 99 vienne se positionner au niveau d'un bord lateral inferieur audit resenoir. Ceci est avantageusement obtenu lors de ['assemblage de la pompe dans le reservoir o par une butee entre l'extremite inferieure 99 et le fond du reservoir. Comme avec les tubes-plongeurs flexibles, il suffit que le tube-plongeur 90 soit legerement plus long que la profondeur du resenoir, de sorte qu'en fin d' assemblage de la pompe dans le reservoir, celui-ci vient buter sur le fond du reservoir, ce qui actionne la zone de pliage 95 et devie le tube-plongeur 90 par rapport a ltaxe longitudinal A. s Le tube-plongeur moule represente sur les figures 1 et 2 est assemble par l'interieur du corps de pompe 10, c'est a dire qu'il est introduit dans le corps de pompe par le bord superieur de celui-ci, puis positionne en butee contre Ia paroi annulaire de fond 11 du corps de pompe, le ressort de rappel 70 de la pompe etant ensuite dispose sur ladite bride annulaire radiale 91 du tube-plongeur. Cet assemblage du tube-plongeur par l'interieur du corps de pompe est egalement simplifie et rendu plus fiable par l'utilisation d'un tube-plongeur rigide stetendant  both the radial annular flange 91 and the hollow axial tube 92 must be rigid, so that it is not possible to produce with the same material and in a single piece a dip tube 90 which would be flexible. The present invention, according to this first embodiment of Figures 1 and 2, therefore allows to realize s such a rigid mold dip tube, while allowing optimal emptying of the tank by providing this folding zone 95 which allows the dip tube , during the assembly in the tank, to fold so that the lower end 99 comes to be positioned at the level of a lateral edge lower than said tank. This is advantageously obtained during assembly of the pump in the tank or by a stop between the lower end 99 and the bottom of the tank. As with flexible dip tubes, it suffices that the dip tube 90 is slightly longer than the depth of the reservoir, so that at the end of assembly of the pump in the reservoir, the latter abuts on the bottom of the reservoir, which activates the folding zone 95 and deflects the dip tube 90 relative to the longitudinal axis A. s The mold dip tube shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is assembled from inside the pump body 10, that is to say that it is introduced into the pump body by the upper edge of the latter, then positioned in abutment against the annular bottom wall 11 of the pump body, the return spring 70 of the pump then being has on said radial annular flange 91 the dip tube. This assembly of the dip tube from the inside of the pump body is also simplified and made more reliable by the use of a rigid stetendent dip tube.

In a similar manner to the first embodiment described above, the dip tube has a length slightly greater than the depth of the reservoir, and during assembly, the lower end 99 of the dip tube 90 abuts against the bottom of the reservoir, which causes the pivoting of said dip tube at its tilting ball joint 95. In the example of FIGS. 3 and 4, the length of the dip tube has been truncated, and it is understood that this can be
