Description

L'invention concerne un récipient de produit d'entretien de toilettes comportant un dispositif de désodorisation de l'air incorporé.The invention relates to a container for toilet maintenance product comprising a built-in air deodorization device.

On connaît déjà des récipients de produit d'entretien de toilettes qui comportent généralement un conteneur pour le produit d'entretien, une fermeture du conteneur avant utilisation et montage, un organe d'accrochage du conteneur à la toilette. En particulier, on connaît un récipient destiné à contenir un liquide coloré, d'entretien, parfumé, ce récipient devant être logé dans la chasse d'eau de la toilette et étant agencé pour délivrer une dose de liquide d'entretien lors de l'actionnement de la chasse d'eau. Dans ce cas, le conteneur est un flacon comportant un goulot das lequel sont montés des moyens de dosage du type à clapet, à flotteur, ou autre. L'organe d'accrochage permet le maintien du flacon avec son goulot dirigé vers le bas, dans la chasse d'eau, pendant son fonctionnement. La fermeture est généralement un bouchon vissé sur un filetage externe du goulot, protégeant les moyens de dosage et évitant que le liquide d'entretien ne soit renversé avant usage. De tels récipients sont, par exemple, décrits dans les brevets US 3 908 209, 3 806 965, 3 895 739, 3 698 021, 3 841 524. Le parfum du liquid d'entretien est essentiellement dégagé au moment de l'actionnement de la chasse, mais non entre deux chasses successives. De plus, le plus souvent, une partie de la dose de liquide délivrée est perdue dans la toilette lors de l'évacuation de l'eau de la chasse. Enfin, si la pièce où se trouve la toilette est vaste, le parfum dégagé par le liquide délivré est insuffisant pour une désodorisation complète. En conséquence, on constate que de tels récipients doseurs à liquide parfumé sont insuffisants pour une désodorisation permanente de la pièce où se trouve la toilette.Containers of toilet maintenance product are already known which generally comprise a container for the maintenance product, a closure of the container before use and assembly, a member for hooking the container to the toilet. In particular, there is known a container intended to contain a colored, maintenance, scented liquid, this container having to be housed in the toilet flush and being arranged to deliver a dose of maintenance liquid during the flushing actuation. In this case, the container is a bottle having a neck in which are mounted metering means of the valve type, float type, or the like. The hooking member allows the bottle to be held with its neck down, in the flush, during its operation. The closure is generally a plug screwed onto an external thread of the neck, protecting the metering means and preventing the maintenance liquid from being spilled before use. Such containers are, for example, described in US Patents 3,908,209, 3,806,965, 3,895,739, 3,698,021, 3,841,524. The scent of the maintenance liquid is essentially released upon actuation of hunting, but not between two successive hunts. In addition, more often than not, part of the dose of liquid delivered is lost in the toilet during the evacuation of the flushing water. Finally, if the room where the toilet is located is large, the scent given off by the liquid delivered is insufficient for complete deodorization. As a result, it can be seen that such scented liquid dosing containers are insufficient for permanent deodorization of the room where the toilet is located.

On connaît par ailleurs des dispositifs assurant une désodorisation permanente (brevet français 2 464 719). Toutefois, les conteneurs de ces dispositifs sont généralement complexes, afin que l'étanchéité nécessaire avant usage soit réalisée. De plus, ces dispositifs ont une action permanente qui est insuffisante au moment de l'usage de la toilette.Devices are also known which provide permanent deodorization (French patent 2,464,719). However, the containers of these devices are generally complex, so that the necessary seal before use is achieved. In addition, these devices have a permanent action which is insufficient when using the toilet.

L'invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients et à cet efet, elle a pour premier objectif de permettre de parfumer ou désodoriser à la fois la toilette ou l'eau de la toilette et la pièce dans laquelle est située la toilette. Un autre but de l'invention est d'atteindre ce résultat de façon simple du point de vue constructif et de la mise en oeuvre.The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and to this effect, its primary objective is to make it possible to perfume or deodorize both the toilet or the water of the toilet and the room in which the toilet is located. Another object of the invention is to achieve this result in a simple manner from the constructive and implementation point of view.

A cet effet, l'invention propose un récipient de produit d'entretien de toilettes du type comportant un conteneur -tel qu'un flacon- du produit d'entretien -tel qu'un liquide parfumé-, une fermeture du conteneur avant utilisation et montage, -telle qu'un bouchon-, un organe d'accochage du conteneur à la toilette. A la fermeture du récipient est incorporé un dispositif de désodorisation de l'air, séparable matériellement du récipient, mais susceptible de fonctionner en combinaison avec lui, de manière que, à l'état passif du récipient et du dispositif de désodorisation, la fermeture remplisse, outre sa fonction d'obturation du récipient, la double fonction d'obturation et de maintien unitaire du dispositif de désodorisation.To this end, the invention provides a container of toilet cleaning product of the type comprising a container - such as a bottle - of cleaning product - such as a scented liquid -, closing the container before use and mounting, such as a plug, a member for attaching the container to the toilet. When the container is closed, there is incorporated an air deodorization device, physically separable from the container, but capable of operating in combination with it, so that, in the passive state of the container and of the deodorization device, the closure fills , in addition to its function of closing the container, the double function of closing and unitary maintenance of the deodorization device.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques, la fermeture comporte sur sa paroi transversale d'extrémité, des reliefs, notamment en creux, avec lesquels coopèrent le bord libre d'une jupe d'un bouchon du dispositif de désodorisation, de manière à assurer la mise en position relative correcte et un certain maintien du dispositif de désodorisation sur la fermeture du récipient. A l'état passif, il est prévu des moyens d'association rigide, hermétique, amovible, du dispositif de désodorisation sur la fermeture du récipient. Ces moyens d'association sont, par exemple, une gaine en matière plastique. Le produit d'entretien et la substance désodorisante dégagent le même parfum et leurs quantités sont telles que pour un fonctionnement moyen normal de la toilette, ils sont consommés pendant approximativement la même durée, ce qui permet leurs remplacements simultanés.According to other characteristics, the closure comprises on its transverse end wall, reliefs, in particular in hollow, with which the free edge of a skirt of a plug of the deodorization device cooperates, so as to ensure the setting in correct relative position and a certain maintenance of the deodorization device on the closure of the container. In the passive state, means are provided for rigid, hermetic, removable association of the deodorization device on the closure of the container. These association means are, for example, a plastic sheath. The cleaning product and the deodorizing substance give off the same perfume and their quantities are such that for normal normal toilet operation, they are consumed for approximately the same duration, which allows their simultaneous replacements.

L'invention concerne un récipient 1 délivrant un produit d'entretien 2 pour toilette 3 du type comportant un conteneur 4 pour le produit d'entretien 2, une fermeture 5 du conteneur 4 avant utilisation et montage et un organe d'accrochage 6 du conteneur 4 à la toilette 3.The invention relates to a container 1 delivering a cleaning product 2 for toilet 3 of the type comprising a container 4 for the cleaning product 2, a closure 5 of the container 4 before use and mounting and a hooking member 6 of the container 4 to the toilet 3.

Préférentiellement, l'invention s'applique tout spécialement au cas où le récipient 1 est destiné à un produit d'entretien sous forme de liquide, parfumé -remplissant éventuellement d'autres fonctions telles que détergent- délivré en doses successives et espacées lors de l'actionnement de la chasse d'eau 3a de la toilette 3. Dans ce cas, le conteneur 4 est un flacon comportant un goulot 7 dans lequel sont montés des moyens de dosage 8, notamment du type à clapet ou flotteur ou autres, mais ne faisant pas en soi directement partie de l'invention. L'organe d'accrochage 6 permet lorsque le récipient 1 doit être utilisé de maintenir le flacon 4 avec son goulot 7 dirigé vers le bas, immergé dans l'eau de la chasse d'eau 3a lorsqu'elle est remplie. Les moyens de dosage 8 délivrent une dose de liquide d'entretien 2 à chaque actionnement de la chasse, du fait de l'abaissement consécutif du niveau d'eau 9 dans la chasse d'eau 3a. La fermeture 5 est alors, le plus souvent, un bouchon à visser, comportant une paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 et, attenante et monobloc, une jupe latérale 11 sur la face interne de laquelle est réalisé un filetage 12 ou un bossage ou similaire, coopérant avec un filetage, un bossage ou un creux complémentaire du goulot 7. Le bouchon 5 peut toutefois être d'un type différent, notamment par enclenchement.Preferably, the invention applies very especially to the case where the container 1 is intended for a cleaning product in the form of a liquid, scented - possibly fulfilling other functions such as detergent - delivered in successive and spaced doses during the actuation of the toilet flush 3a 3. In this case, the container 4 is a bottle comprising a neck 7 in which are mounted metering means 8, in particular of the valve or float type or the like, but do not not per se directly part of the invention. The attachment member 6 allows when the container 1 must be used to keep the bottle 4 with its neck 7 facing downwards, immersed in the flushing water 3a when it is filled. The metering means 8 deliver a dose of maintenance liquid 2 to each actuation of the flush, due to the consequent lowering of the water level 9 in the flush 3a. The closure 5 is then, most often, a screw cap, comprising a transverse end wall 10 and, adjoining and integral, a lateral skirt 11 on the internal face of which a thread 12 or a boss or the like is produced, cooperating with a thread, a boss or a complementary hollow of the neck 7. The plug 5 may however be of a different type, in particular by engagement.

Selon l'invention, à la fermeture 5 du récipient 1 est incorporé, à l'état passif, c'est-à-dire notamment pour la présentation à la vente, la vente, le stockage et le transport, donc avant usage, un dispositif 13 de désodorisation de l'air, séparable matériellement du récipient 1, à l'état actif, de manière à pouvoir fonctionner en combinaison avec lui. A l'état passif du récipient 1 et du dispositif 13, la fermeture 5 remplit, outre sa fonction d'obturation du conteneur 4, la double fonction d'obturation et de maintien unitaire du dispositif 13 sur le récipient 1.According to the invention, at the closure 5 of the container 1 is incorporated, in the passive state, that is to say in particular for the presentation for sale, sale, storage and transport, therefore before use, a air deodorization device 13, physically separable from the container 1, in the active state, so that it can operate in combination with it. In the passive state of the container 1 and of the device 13, the closure 5 fulfills, in addition to its function of closing the container 4, the double function of closing and unitary maintenance of the device 13 on the container 1.

Le dispositif de désodorisation 13 comporte essentiellement un conteneur 14 renfermant une substance désodorisante 15 et des moyens 16 de fixation amovible.The deodorizing device 13 essentially comprises a container 14 containing a deodorizing substance 15 and means 16 for removable fixing.

La substance désodorisante 15 est sous forme non coulante, notamment sous la forme d'un gel ou encore sous la forme d'un produit parfumé, imprégnant un corps support poreux ou en fibres ou similaire. La substance désodorisante 15 est essentiellement parfumée avec un parfum identique ou similaire à celui du produit d'entretien 2. Les moyens de fixation amovible 16 sont, par exemple, un film collant double face, dont la face extérieure est protégée, à l'état inutilisé, par une pellicule de protection arrachable.The deodorant substance 15 is in non-flowing form, in particular in the form of a gel or also in the form of a perfumed product, impregnating a porous or fiber-based support body or the like. The deodorant substance 15 is essentially perfumed with a perfume identical or similar to that of the cleaning product 2. The removable fixing means 16 are, for example, a double-sided sticky film, the outer face of which is protected, in the state unused, by a removable protective film.

Le dispositif de désodorisation 13 peut se trouver dans deux états possibles : l'état passif de repos où il est inutilisé, par exemple, présenté à la vente ou stocké ou transporté, et un état actif où il est utilisé pour la fonction de désodorisation de l'air.The deodorization device 13 can be in two possible states: the passive state of rest where it is unused, for example, presented for sale or stored or transported, and an active state where it is used for the air deodorization function.

A l'état passif, le dispositif de désodorisation 13 est associé matériellement et fixement -mais de façon amovible- à la fermeture 5 de façon que, d'une part, l'ensemble récipient 1 et dispositif 13 forment un tout matériel unitaire et que, d'autre part, la substance 15 soit enfermée de façon étanche. Cet état passif du dispositif de désodorisation 13 correspond également à l'état passif -c'est-à-dire inutilisé- du récipient 1.In the passive state, the deodorization device 13 is associated materially and fixedly - but removably - with the closure 5 so that, on the one hand, the container 1 and device 13 assembly form a whole unitary material and that , on the other hand, the substance 15 is sealed. This passive state of the deodorization device 13 also corresponds to the passive state, that is to say unused state, of the container 1.

A l'état actif, le dispositif de désodorisation 13 est dissocié matériellement de la fermeture 5 de manière, d'une part, à pouvoir être placé en tout endroit souhaité plus ou moins écarté du récipient 1, et, d'autre part, d'être ouvert pour permettre le dégagement continu du parfum de la substance 15. A l'état actif du dispositif de désodorisation 13, le récipient 1 est préférentiellement à l'état actif, c'est-à-dire utilisé -ou, éventuellement, rester temporairement à l'état passif-.In the active state, the deodorization device 13 is physically dissociated from the closure 5 so as, on the one hand, to be able to be placed in any desired location more or less removed from the container 1, and, on the other hand, d 'be open to allow the continuous release of the fragrance of the substance 15. In the active state of the deodorization device 13, the container 1 is preferably in the active state, that is to say used - or, optionally, remain temporarily in the passive state.

Par état actif du récipient 1, on entend l'état dans lequel le récipient 1 est apte à fonctionner, qu'il fonctionne effectivement ou non. Dans cet état, la fermeture 5 est enlevée du conteneur 4. Dans le cas d'un récipient 1 pour produit d'entretien de liquide, dans cette situation, le flacon 4 est placé avec le goulot 7 vers le bas dans la chasse d'eau 3a. Dans cette situation et avec cette variante, le récipient 1 permet de délivrer des doses de liquide d'entretien 2, lors de l'actionnement de la chasse d'eau 3a.By active state of the container 1 means the state in which the container 1 is able to operate, whether it actually works or not. In this state, the closure 5 is removed from the container 4. In the case of a container 1 for liquid maintenance product, in this situation, the bottle 4 is placed with the neck 7 down in the flush of water 3a. In this situation and with this variant, the container 1 makes it possible to deliver doses of maintenance liquid 2, when the flushing device 3a is actuated.

Au contraire, par état passif du récipient 1, on entend l'état dans lequel le récipient 1 ne peut fonctionner, la fermeture 5 fermant le conteneur 4.On the contrary, by passive state of the container 1 is meant the state in which the container 1 cannot operate, the closure 5 closing the container 4.

Selon l'invention, il est encore prévu, à l'état passif, des moyens 17 d'association matérielle rigide et hermétique, mais amovible, du dispositif de désodorisation 13 sur la fermeture 5.According to the invention, means 17 are also provided, in the passive state, for rigid and hermetic, but removable, material association of the deodorization device 13 on the closure 5.

Préférentiellement, ces moyens d'association 17 sont constitués par une gaine en matière plastique étirable ou thermorétractable, entourant la fermeture 5 et le dispositif de désodorisation 13.Preferably, these means of association 17 consist of a sheath of stretchable or heat-shrinkable plastic, surrounding the closure 5 and the deodorization device 13.

Selon l'invention, la quantité de produit d'entretien 2 et la quantité de substance désodorisante 15 sont telles que pour un fonctionnement moyen normal de la chasse d'eau 3a, ainsi que des conditions moyennes normales d'implantation de la toilette 3a dans la pièce à laquelle est destinée le dispositif de désodorisation 13, le produit d'entretien 2 et la substance désodorisante 15 sont consommés pendant approximativement la même durée, ce qui permet leurs remplacements simultanés. Cette caractéristique est plus spécialement représentée sur la figure 5 qui est un graphe sur lequel le temps T est représenté en abscisses, alors que les quantités sont représentées en ordonnées. La courbe C1 correspond au produit d'entretien 2 et la courbe C2, à la substance désodorisante 15. La courbe C1 a une forme générale en escalier, notamment globalement rectiligne dans son ensemble, la hauteur de chaque marche d'escalier correspondant à une dose de produit. Naturellement, la courbe C1 dépend de l'utilisation qui est faite de la chasse d'eau 3a. La courbe C2 est, quant à elle, de forme régulière et continue, et correspond à l'utilisation de la substance désodorisante 15. Comme on peut le voir, les deux courbes se rejoignent pour une quantié nulle de produit 2 ou de substance 15, sensiblement au bout de la même durée. Naturellement, en pratique, les durées peuvent varier en fonction de l'usage effectif de la chasse d'eau 3a, de la grandeur de la pièce dans laquelle se trouve la toilette 3, etc ... Préférentiellement, cette durée est de l'ordre de deux mois.According to the invention, the amount of cleaning product 2 and the amount of deodorant substance 15 are such that for normal normal flushing operation 3a, as well as normal average conditions for installing the toilet 3a in the room for which the deodorizing device 13 is intended, the cleaning product 2 and the deodorizing substance 15 are consumed for approximately the same duration, which allows them to be replaced simultaneously. This characteristic is more particularly represented in FIG. 5 which is a graph on which the time T is represented on the abscissa, while the quantities are represented on the ordinate. The curve C1 corresponds to the cleaning product 2 and the curve C2, to the deodorant substance 15. The curve C1 has a general staircase shape, in particular generally straight as a whole, the height of each staircase corresponding to a dose of product. Naturally, the curve C1 depends on the use which is made of the flush 3a. The curve C2 is, for its part, of regular and continuous shape, and corresponds to the use of the deodorant substance 15. As we can see, the two curves meet for a zero quantity of product 2 or substance 15, substantially after the same time. Naturally, in practice, the durations may vary depending on the actual use of the flush 3a, the size of the room in which the toilet 3 is located, etc. Preferentially, this duration is order of two months.

On décrira maintenant deux formes d'exécution possibles, mais non limitatives de l'invention, dans le cas où le récipient 1 est destiné à délivrer des doses de produit d'entretien 2 sous forme liquide. Dans ce cas, le récipient 1 comporte, ainsi qu'il a été mentionné précédemment, un flacon 4 comportant un goulot 7, des moyens de dosage 8, logés dans le goulot 7, ainsi qu'un bouchon 5.We will now describe two possible, but not limiting, embodiments of the invention, in the case where the container 1 is intended to deliver doses of cleaning product 2 in liquid form. In this case, the container 1 includes, as mentioned above, a bottle 4 comprising a neck 7, metering means 8, housed in the neck 7, as well as a stopper 5.

Dans une première forme de réalisation, préférentielle (figures 1, 2 et 3), le dispositif de désodorisation 13 comporte, en premier lieu, un conteneur 14 pourvu de perforations 18, dans lequel est logée la substance désodorisante 15. Les perforations 18 autorisent le dégagement du parfum de la substance désodorisante 15. Le dispositif de désodorisation 13 comporte, en second lieu, un bouchon 19 dans lequel est logé de façon amovible le conteneur 14. Le bouchon 19 est destiné à être placé sur et dans le prolongement du bouchon 5, notamment sur sa paroi d'extrémité transversale 10. Dans ce cas, la gaine en matière plastique, constituant les moyens d'association 17 peut être appliquée sur les bouchons 5, 19, en assurant leur solidarisation rigide, réciproque, hermétique, mais amovible.In a first preferred embodiment (FIGS. 1, 2 and 3), the deodorization device 13 comprises, first of all, a container 14 provided with perforations 18, in which the deodorant substance 15 is housed. The perforations 18 allow the release of the fragrance from the deodorant substance 15. The device deodorization 13 comprises, secondly, a plug 19 in which the container 14 is removably housed. The plug 19 is intended to be placed on and in the extension of the plug 5, in particular on its transverse end wall 10. In this case, the plastic sheath constituting the association means 17 can be applied to the plugs 5, 19, ensuring that they are rigid, reciprocal, hermetic, but removable.

Préférentiellement, le conteneur 14 a une forme générale cylindrique ou pseudo-cylindrique limitée par un fond 20, notamment essentiellement plein, une paroi latérale 21 et une paroi frontale 22. Les perforations 18 sont ménagées sur les paroi latérale 21 et frontale 22. La patoi frontale 22 est située en retrait de manière à laisser un bord libre 23 de la paroi latérale 21. Le conteneur 14 peut être réalisé en deux parties distinctes, solidarisées entre elles, notamment par collage, soudage, ou autre moyen, et permettant ainsi le logement à l'intérieur de la substance désodorisante 15. En variante, la paroi latérale 21 comporte, à proximité du fond 20, une saillie annulaire extérieure 24 et la paroi latérale 21 présente, entre le fond 20 et la saillie 24, une forme tronconique. Le film collant double face 16 est alors placé sur la face externe du fond 20.Preferably, the container 14 has a generally cylindrical or pseudo-cylindrical shape limited by a bottom 20, in particular essentially full, a side wall 21 and a front wall 22. The perforations 18 are formed on the side wall 21 and front 22. The patoi front 22 is set back so as to leave a free edge 23 of the side wall 21. The container 14 can be made in two separate parts, joined together, in particular by gluing, welding, or other means, and thus allowing the accommodation inside the deodorant substance 15. As a variant, the side wall 21 has, near the bottom 20, an external annular projection 24 and the side wall 21 has, between the bottom 20 and the projection 24, a frustoconical shape. The double-sided adhesive film 16 is then placed on the external face of the bottom 20.

Le bouchon 19 comporte une paroi d'extrémité transversale 25 et, attenante et monobloc, une jupe latérale 26. Une ou plusieurs saillies axiales 27 sont ménagées sur la face interne de la jupe latérale 26 au voisinage de la paroi d'extrémité transversale 25, et permettent le maintien en place du conteneur 14 dans le bouchon 19 au moyen de la saillie annulaire 24 et des saillies axiales 27, réalisant un certain serrage relatif. Lorsque le conteneur 14 est monté dans le bouchon 19, la face externe de son fond 20 où se trouve le film double face 16 est placée contre la face interne de la paroi d'extrémité transversale 25. Dans cette situation, le bord libre 23 du conteneur 14 saille de la jupe 26, la paroi frontale 22 étant au moins sensiblement coplanaire avec le bord libre de la jupe 26. Une rainure annulaire 28 ménagée dans la face externe de la paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 du bouchon 5, complémentaire du bord libre 23 du conteneur 14 permet la mise en position relative correcte et un certain maintien du dispositif de désodorisation 13 sur le bouchon 5. Dans cette situation, la paroi frontale 22 est placée contre la paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 du bouchon 5 et les jupes 11, 26 sont en prolongement l'une de l'autre. La gaine d'association 17 peut alors être appliquée sur les jupes 11, 26 et être maintenue sur la paroi d'extrémité transversale 25 du bouchon 19 et le goulot 7.The plug 19 comprises a transverse end wall 25 and, adjoining and integral, a side skirt 26. One or more axial projections 27 are formed on the internal face of the side skirt 26 in the vicinity of the transverse end wall 25, and allow the container 14 to be held in place in the plug 19 by means of the annular projection 24 and the axial projections 27, achieving a certain relative tightening. When the container 14 is mounted in the plug 19, the external face of its bottom 20 where the double-sided film 16 is located is placed against the internal face of the transverse end wall 25. In this situation, the free edge 23 of the container 14 protruding from the skirt 26, the front wall 22 being at least substantially coplanar with the free edge of the skirt 26. An annular groove 28 formed in the external face of the transverse end wall 10 of the plug 5, complementary to the edge free 23 of the container 14 allows the correct relative positioning and a certain maintenance of the deodorization device 13 on the plug 5. In this situation, the front wall 22 is placed against the wall transverse end 10 of the plug 5 and the skirts 11, 26 are an extension of one another. The association sheath 17 can then be applied to the skirts 11, 26 and be held on the transverse end wall 25 of the plug 19 and the neck 7.

Dans une seconde forme de réalisation (figure 4), le dispositif 13 comporte un conteneur 14 en forme de bouchon, ayant une paroi d'extrémité transversale 29 et une jupe latérale 20. A l'intérieur du bouchon ainsi constitué, est logée la substance 15 dont la surface libre 31 est écartée du bord libre 32 de la jupe 30. Le bouchon 5 comporte alors une feuillure annulaire périphérique 33 entre la paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 et la jupe latérale 11 avec laquelle coopère le bord libre 32. Eventuellement, des saillies 34 du chant latéral de la feuillure 33 coopèrent avec la jupe latérale 30 pour permettre le maintien relatif du dispositif de désodorisation 13 du bouchon 5. L'étanchéité est assurée alors par le contact de la paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 sur la surface libre 31 de substance désodorisante 15 et/ou au moyen de la gaine 16, ainsi que défini précédemment.In a second embodiment (FIG. 4), the device 13 comprises a container 14 in the form of a stopper, having a transverse end wall 29 and a side skirt 20. Inside the stopper thus formed, is housed the substance 15 whose free surface 31 is spaced from the free edge 32 of the skirt 30. The plug 5 then comprises a peripheral annular rebate 33 between the transverse end wall 10 and the side skirt 11 with which the free edge 32 cooperates. Optionally, protrusions 34 of the lateral edge of the rabbet 33 cooperate with the lateral skirt 30 to allow the relative maintenance of the deodorization device 13 of the plug 5. The sealing is then ensured by the contact of the transverse end wall 10 on the surface free 31 of deodorant substance 15 and / or by means of the sheath 16, as defined above.

Dans l'une comme dans l'autre forme de réalisation, le récipient 1 et le dispositif 13 présentent un axe principal de symétrie ou de révolution XX. Cependant, le récipient 1 et le dispositif 13 peuvent également être de forme dissymétrique, si nécessaire.In one as in the other embodiment, the container 1 and the device 13 have a main axis of symmetry or of revolution XX. However, the container 1 and the device 13 can also be asymmetrical, if necessary.

Ainsi que cela résulte de la description qui précède, la fermeture 5 comporte sur sa paroi d'extrémité transversale 10 des reliefs 28, 33, notament en creux, avec lesquels coopère le bord libre 23, 32 d'une paroi latérale 21 ou d'une jupe latérale 30 d'un bouchon 19, 14 du dispositif de désodorisation 13 de manière à assurer la mise en position relative correcte et un certain maintien du dispositif de désodorisation 13 sur la fermeture 5.As follows from the above description, the closure 5 has reliefs 28, 33 on its transverse end wall 10, in particular in the hollow, with which the free edge 23, 32 of a side wall 21 or of cooperates. a side skirt 30 of a plug 19, 14 of the deodorization device 13 so as to ensure the correct relative positioning and a certain maintenance of the deodorization device 13 on the closure 5.

En général, on utilise le récipient 1 et le dispositif de désodo­risation 13 simultanément. A cet effet, on enlève les moyens d'association 17. Puis, on enlève la pellicule de protection du film collant double face 16 et on fixe le dispositif de désodorisation 13 en tout endroit souhaité de la pièce où se trouve la toilette 3. La fermeture 5 est enlevée, le conteneur 4 est associé à la toilette 3, notamment le flacon 4 placé avec le goulot 7 vers le bas, dans la chasse d'eau 3a. Compte tenu que les quantités respectives de produit d'entretien 2 et de substnce de désodorisation 15 sont telles que mentionnées précédemment, le produit 2 et la substance 15 sont utilisés sensiblement pendant la même période de temps.In general, the container 1 and the deodorization device 13 are used simultaneously. To this end, the association means 17 are removed. Then, the protective film is removed from the double-sided sticky film 16 and the deodorization device 13 is fixed at any desired location in the room where the toilet is located. closure 5 is removed, container 4 is associated with toilet 3, in particular the bottle 4 placed with the neck 7 downwards, in the flush 3a. Given that the respective amounts of cleaning product 2 and deodorizing substance 15 are as mentioned above, product 2 and substance 15 are used for substantially the same period of time.
