Trigger Sprayers are common spray tools in daily life and are widely used in detergents, hair sprays, agricultural chemicals and other fields. For manufacturers and consumers, sealing is a key indicator for evaluating its performance. Excellent sealing performance can not only prevent leakage and waste, but also extend the service life of the product and improve consumer satisfaction.
Importance of sealing performance
The sealing performance of Trigger Sprayers directly affects the user experience and safety of the product:
Prevent leakage: Whether in transportation, storage or use, leakage will cause unnecessary waste, and may damage the packaging materials or the surrounding environment. Especially for liquids containing chemical ingredients, leakage may bring safety hazards.
Protect the quality of liquid: In the case of poor sealing, outside air or impurities can easily enter the container, thereby affecting the purity and stability of the liquid.
Improve brand image: Consumers have a low tolerance for leakage problems, and sealing problems may affect the brand's reputation and market competitiveness.
Improving sealing performance is not only an optimization of product functions, but also a means to enhance market competitiveness.
Design optimization and improvement strategy
To improve the sealing of Trigger Sprayers, we can start from structural design, material selection and manufacturing process.
1. Optimize valve design
Double-layer valve system: introduce a double-layer sealing design to ensure that the liquid will not leak due to external force or tilt in the closed state. The inner layer is responsible for liquid sealing, and the outer layer enhances the sealing effect.
Rebound valve material improvement: use silicone or special rubber materials with high elasticity to ensure that the valve can quickly reset and fit the seal.
2. Improve the bottle mouth thread structure
Deep thread design: use a deeper thread structure to increase the contact area between the bottle cap and the bottle mouth and improve the sealing performance.
Leak-proof gasket: add a high-density leak-proof gasket at the connection between the bottle mouth and the nozzle to effectively prevent liquid leakage.
3. Enhance the assembly accuracy of the nozzle assembly
Automated assembly technology: use high-precision automated assembly equipment to reduce the errors that may be caused by manual assembly, thereby improving the close fit between components.
Pressure test calibration: pressure test each product during the manufacturing process to ensure that the sealing performance of each Trigger Sprayer meets the standard.
Improvement direction of material selection
Material plays a key role in improving sealing.
High-density plastic: Selecting corrosion-resistant and high-pressure resistant high-density plastic as the main material of the nozzle and bottle cap can prevent chemical liquids from corroding the components and improve the durability of the product.
Flexible sealing material: Use flexible sealing materials such as polyurethane (PU) or fluororubber in key sealing parts, such as gaskets and valves, to ensure complete fit of the contact surface.
External protection design
While improving sealing, the risk of leakage can also be further reduced through external protection design.
Locking function: Add a locking device to the Trigger Sprayer, which can lock the nozzle when not in use to avoid leakage caused by accidental touch.
Anti-spill protection cover: Add a removable protection cover on the top of the nozzle to additionally block possible liquid leakage.
