Ce réci­pient peut être pressurisé du genre "bombe aérosol", ou non.The present invention relates to a container for packaging a product and its controlled distribution, said container comprising an applicator, in particular of the brush type. This container can be pressurized like "aerosol can", or not.

Le document US-A-4 533 273 est relatif à un récipient pressurisé du type "bombe aérosol" comportant une valve de distribution permettant à un utilisateur, en agissant sur un bouton-poussoir associé à cette valve, de provoquer l'éjection du produit contenu. Ce récipient comprend un dispositif appli­cateur constitué d'un capuchon et d'une brosse montée sur ce dernier. Le capuchon comprend une jupe cylindrique, qui est munie, à sa partie inférieure, d'une rainure pouvant coopérer avec un bourrelet du récipient afin d'en être rendu solidaire. L'extrémité supérieure de cette jupe est ouverte et inclinée par rapport à l'axe du récipient. Un tube d'éjection, qui est situé à l'intérieur du volume délimité par la jupe cylindrique, coiffe par son extrémité inférieure le tube de valve, alors que son extrémité supérieure se prolonge en oblique et dépasse légèrement de l'ouverture supérieure de la jupe. Ce tube d'éjection comprend un bouton-poussoir relié à la jupe cylin­drique, qui comporte, à ce niveau, une ouverture permettant à l'utilisateur d'appuyer par un doigt sur ce bouton-poussoir. La brosse, qui est maintenue sur l'extrémité ouverte de la jupe cylindrique, comprend un plateau sur la face externe duquel sont disposés des poils; elle comporte, sur son autre face, un manchon cylindrique, qui, d'une part, coiffe l'ex­trémité supérieure du tube d'éjection et, d'autre part, débou­che dans un orifice ménagé dans ledit plateau. En appuyant sur le bouton-poussoir, l'utilisateur exerce une pression sur la valve du récipient, ce qui permet de délivrer une quantité donnée du produit sur la brosse. D'après ce document, ce pro­duit est, de préférence, un détergent.Document US-A-4,533,273 relates to a pressurized container of the "aerosol can" type comprising a dispensing valve allowing a user, by acting on a push button associated with this valve, to cause the ejection of the product content. This container comprises an applicator device consisting of a cap and a brush mounted on the latter. The cap comprises a cylindrical skirt, which is provided at its lower part with a groove capable of cooperating with a bead of the container in order to be made integral therewith. The upper end of this skirt is open and inclined relative to the axis of the container. An ejection tube, which is located inside the volume delimited by the cylindrical skirt, covers at its lower end the valve tube, while its upper end extends obliquely and slightly protrudes from the upper opening of the skirt. This ejection tube comprises a push button connected to the cylindrical skirt, which comprises, at this level, an opening allowing the user to press with a finger on this push button.

According to this document, this product is preferably a detergent.

Un tel dispositif présente, notamment, comme inconvé­nient d'être de réalisation relativement coûteuse et de ne pas pouvoir être recouvert par un capot protecteur.Such a device has, in particular, the drawback of being relatively expensive to make and of not being able to be covered by a protective cover.

La présente invention a, en particulier, pour but de fournir un récipient comportant un applicateur de réalisa­tion simple, adaptable sur tous types de récipients.The present invention aims, in particular, to provide a container comprising an applicator of simple production, adaptable to all types of containers.

Un autre but de l'invention est de fournir un tel réci­pient qui puisse comporter un capot traditionnel.Another object of the invention is to provide such a container which may include a traditional cover.

Ces buts, ainsi que d'autres qui apparaîtront par la suite, sont atteints par un récipient pour le conditionnement d'un produit et sa distribution contrôlée, ledit récipient étant muni d'un orifice de sortie associé à une tête de dis­tribution, ladite tête de distribution comportant une jupe cylindrique rendue solidaire de ce récipient et raccordée à un fond dans lequel débouche un canal d'éjection, ledit canal d'éjection étant disposé sensiblement dans le prolongement et dans l'axe de l'orifice de sortie, ce fond étant surmonté par une embase et comportant une tubulure sensiblement nor­male à cette embase et prolongeant le canal d'éjection avec lequel elle forme un angle, un applicateur étant disposé à l'extrémité libre de cette tubulure, récipient qui est caractérisé, selon la présente invention, par le fait que l'applicateur comprend, d'une part, un manchon cylindrique coopérant avec l'extrémité libre de la tubulare, et, d'autre part, un plateau dans lequel débouche ce manchon cylindrique et qui comporte, sur sa face opposée au manchon cylindrique, des poils répartis autour de la zone où débouche le manchon, et que l'embase comporte, sur sa paroi de sommet, un dispo­sitif de maintien du manchon cylindrique dans une position, où son axe est sensiblement parallèle à celui de l'orifice de sortie, pour permettre la mise en place d'un capot pro­tecteur sur la zone de distribution du récipient. Avantageu­sement, le dispositif de maintien coopérant avec le manchon cylindrique de l'applicateur est un plot ou un évidement. Cet applicateur peut être réalisé en une matière plastique souple telle qu'un copolymère élastomère d'éthylène et d'acé­tate de vinyle. De préférence, le plateau est circulaire et le manchon cylindrique débouche sensiblement dans sa zone centrale.These aims, as well as others which will appear subsequently, are achieved by a container for packaging a product and its controlled distribution, said container being provided with an outlet orifice associated with a dispensing head, said head dispenser comprising a cylindrical skirt made integral with this container and connected to a bottom into which an ejection channel opens, said ejection channel being disposed substantially in the extension and in the axis of the outlet orifice, this bottom being surmounted by a base and comprising a tube substantially normal to this base and extending the ejection channel with which it forms an angle, an applicator being disposed at the free end of this tube, container which is characterized, according to the present invention , by the fact that the applicator comprises, on the one hand, a cylindrical sleeve cooperating with the free end of the tubular, and, on the other hand, a plate into which this cylindrical sleeve opens ique and which comprises, on its face opposite to the cylindrical sleeve, bristles distributed around the area where the sleeve opens, and that the base comprises, on its top wall, a device for holding the cylindrical sleeve in a position, where its axis is substantially parallel to that of the outlet orifice, to allow the establishment of a protective cover on the distribution area of the container. Advantageously, the holding device cooperating with the cylindrical sleeve of the applicator is a stud or a recess. This applicator can be made of a plastic material flexible such as an elastomeric copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. Preferably, the plate is circular and the cylindrical sleeve opens out substantially in its central zone.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'in­vention, le récipient est pressurisé, du type "bombe aérosol", une valve de distribution étant disposée sur l'orifice de sortie et la tête de distribution comportant un bouton-poussoir coopérant avec cette valve en vue de provoquer l'éjection du produit dans le canal d'éjection et la tubulure.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the container is pressurized, of the "aerosol can" type, a dispensing valve being disposed on the outlet orifice and the dispensing head comprising a push button cooperating with this valve in to cause the product to be ejected into the ejection channel and the tubing.

En se référant à la figure 1, on a désigné par la référence 1, dans son ensemble, un récipient pressurisé du type "bombe aérosol", dans lequel est conditionné un produit destiné à être distribué sous la forme d'une mousse ou d'un aérosol à sa sortie du récipient 1.Referring to Figure 1, there has been designated by reference 1, as a whole, a pressurized container of the "aerosol can" type, in which is packaged a product intended to be dispensed in the form of a foam or an aerosol on leaving container 1.

Ce dernier comporte un corps 2 ayant une paroi latérale cylindrique, sur la bordure d'extrémité supérieure de laquelle est fixée, au moyen d'un sertissage, une coupelle porte-valve 3. Dans la zone centrale de cette coupelle porte-­valve 3, est disposée une valve dotée d'un tube de sortie émergeant 4. Si l'on enfonce le tube de sortie 4 de la valve, on provoque la mise à l'air libre du contenu du récipient, lequel est alors projeté hors de ce dernier, sous l'effet du gaz propulseur présent dans le récipient, avec production simultanée de mousse ou d'un aérosol en fonction des produits constituant la phase liquide.The latter comprises a body 2 having a cylindrical side wall, on the upper end edge of which is fixed, by means of a crimping, a valve-holder cup 3. In the central zone of this valve-holder cup 3, there is a valve provided with an emerging outlet tube 4. If the outlet tube 4 of the valve is pressed, the contents of the container are brought into the open air, which is then projected out of the latter , under the effect of the propellant gas present in the container, with simultaneous production of foam or an aerosol depending on the products constituting the liquid phase.

sur le corps 2 est adaptée une tête de distri­bution 5 constituée par une partie fixe 6 et par une partie mobile 7, qui est munie d'un applicateur 8.on the body 2 is adapted a dispensing head 5 constituted by a fixed part 6 and by a movable part 7, which is provided with an applicator 8.

La partie fixe 6 de la tête de distribution 5 est constituée par une jupe périphérique cylindrique 9 raccor­dée à un fond 10 comportant une ouverture centrale 11. En posi­tion de montage de la tête de distribution 5 sur le corps 2, le fond 10 surplombe la bordure périphérique supérieure de la coupelle porte-valve 3. La jupe 9 présente intérieurement, au voisinage de sa bordure libre, un jonc annulaire 12 inter­rompu qui, en position de montage de la tête 5, s'encliquette à l'intérieur de la gorge périphérique résultant de l'opéra­tion de sertissage de la coupelle porte-valve 3 sur la paroi latérale du corps 2 du récipient 1. La partie fixe 6 de la tête de distribution 5 comporte plusieurs ailettes radiales 13 raccordées à la jupe 9 et au fond 10, ces ailettes 13 venant en appui sur la bordure périphérique supérieure de la coupelle porte-valve 3 lorsqu'on vient d'assurer la fixation de la tête 5 sur le corps 2.The fixed part 6 of the dispensing head 5 is constituted by a cylindrical peripheral skirt 9 connected to a bottom 10 having a central opening 11. In the mounting position of the dispensing head 5 on the body 2, the bottom 10 overhangs the edge upper peripheral of the valve-holder cup 3. The skirt 9 has internally, in the vicinity of its free edge, an interrupted annular ring 12 which, in the mounting position of the head 5, snaps inside the peripheral groove resulting from the crimping operation of the valve-holder cup 3 on the side wall of the body 2 of the container 1. The fixed part 6 of the dispensing head 5 comprises several radial fins 13 connected to the skirt 9 and to the bottom 10, these fins 13 coming to bear on the upper peripheral edge of the valve-holder cup 3 when the head 5 has just been fixed on the body 2.

La partie mobile 7, ou embase, de la tête de distribution 5 est constituée par un socle 14 en forme de disque, de diamè­tre légèrement inférieur à celui de l'ouverture 11 : ce socle 14 est articulé à la bordure intérieure du fond 10 par une charnière-film 15. Le socle 14 porte extérieurement, à l'opposé de la charnière-film 15, un bouton-pousoir 16 con­sistant en une protubérance délimitée par une paroi latérale externe 16a tronconique, deux parois latérales 16b sensible­ment radiales et une paroi supérieure 16c : l'utilisateur en appuyant sur cette paroi supérieure 16c exerce une pression sur le bouton-poussoir 16 pour distribuer le produit contenu dans le récipient 1. Cette paroi supérieure 16c comporte un évidement 17 circulaire.The movable part 7, or base, of the dispensing head 5 is constituted by a base 14 in the form of a disc, of diameter slightly smaller than that of the opening 11: this base 14 is articulated at the inner edge of the bottom 10 by a film hinge 15. The base 14 carries externally, at the opposite of the film hinge 15, a push button 16 consisting of a protuberance delimited by an external side wall 16 a frustoconical, two side walls 16 b substantially radial and an upper wall 16 c : the user pressing this upper wall 16 c exerts pressure on the push button 16 to dispense the product contained in the container 1. This upper wall 16 c has a circular recess 17.

Les parois 16b se prolongent par des pa­rois 18 parallèles entre elles, dont la hauteur diminue pro­gressivement jusqu'à la ligne de la charnière-film 15. Ces parois 18 sont réunies par une paroi rectangulaire oblique 19 dont la base est déterminée par la charnière-film 15.The walls 16b are extended by walls 18 parallel to each other, the height of which progressively decreases up to the line of the film hinge 15. These walls 18 are joined by an oblique rectangular wall 19 whose base is determined by the hinge -film 15.

La paroi 16c présente, en saillie sur sa face inférieure, une cheminée cylindrique 23. Un canal d'éjection 21 est délimité par la cheminée cylindrique 23, dont la bordure inférieure 24 est chanfreinée ; ce canal se prolonge, après un épaulement annulaire interne 25, par une partie de plus petit diamètre 26, dans laquelle débouche un canal 27 défini par une tubulaire 28 ; le canal 27 traverse la paroi 19 dans sa partie supérieure ; la tubulure 28 fait saillie vers l'extérieur par rapport à la paroi 19.The wall 16c has, projecting on its lower face, a cylindrical chimney 23. An ejection channel 21 is delimited by the cylindrical chimney 23, the lower edge 24 of which is chamfered; this channel is extended, after an internal annular shoulder 25, by a part of smaller diameter 26, into which opens a channel 27 defined by a tubular 28; the channel 27 passes through the wall 19 in its upper part; the tubing 28 projects outwardly relative to the wall 19.

L'applicateur 8 est constitué par un pla­teau 29 dont une face, tournée vers l'extérieur, comporte des poils 30, tandis que son autre face, opposée à celle portant les poils 30, est prolongée par un manchon cylindri­que 31. Le diamètre intérieur de ce manchon cylindrique est sensiblement égal au diamètre extérieur de la tabulure 28, de telle sorte que ce manchon cylindrique 31 peut venir s'emmancher sur la tubulure 28. Le manchon cylindrique 31 débouche dans le plateau 29 sensiblement au centre de ce dernier.The applicator 8 is constituted by a plate 29 of which one face, facing outwards, comprises bristles 30, while its other face, opposite to that carrying the bristles 30, is extended by a cylindrical sleeve 31. The internal diameter of this cylindrical sleeve is substantially equal to the outside diameter of the tabulation 28, so that this cylindrical sleeve 31 can come to be fitted on the tube 28. The cylindrical sleeve 31 opens into the plate 29 substantially in the center of the latter.

Le plateau 29, de forme circulaire, forme un support pour une multitude de poils, qui sont de section sensiblement carrée. Cet applicateur est entièrement moulé en un copolymère élastomère éthylène/acétate de vinyle. Des ailettes 33 sont prévues pour supporter le plateau 29 : elles prennent appui sur le manchon cylindrique 31.The plate 29, of circular shape, forms a support for a multitude of bristles, which are of substantially square section. This applicator is completely molded from an ethylene / vinyl acetate elastomer copolymer. Fins 33 are provided to support the plate 29: they bear on the cylindrical sleeve 31.

Ainsi qu'on aura pu le comprendre, en appuyant sur le bouton-poussoir 16, on agit sur la tige émergeante 4 de la valve de telle sorte que le produit contenu dans le récipient 1 est éjecté dans le canal d'éjection 21 puis dans le canal 27 de la tubulure 28 et par suite à la base des poils 30 de l'applicateur 8.As we could understand, by pressing the push button 16, we act on the emerging rod 4 of the valve so that the product contained in the container 1 is ejected into the ejection channel 21 then into the channel 27 of the tubing 28 and consequently at the base of the bristles 30 of the applicator 8.

Comme la tubulure 28 est sensiblement normale à la paroi 19 de la tête de distribution 5, cette tubulure 28 fait un angle avec le canal d'éjection 21-26, situé dans l'axe du récipient 1.As the tubing 28 is substantially normal to the wall 19 of the dispensing head 5, this tubing 28 forms an angle with the ejection channel 21-26, located in the axis of the container 1.

En position de stockage, on place l'applicateur 8 de telle sorte que son manchon cylindrique 31 vienne se placer dans l'évidement 17 de la paroi supérieure 16c du bouton-poussoir 16, de façon à pouvoir recouvrir la tête de distribution d'un capot protecteur 32. De cette façon, l'axe de l'applicateur 8 est parallèle à l'axe du récipient 1 et l'applicateur 8 ne déborde nullement du récipient 1, ce qui lui permet d'être recouvert par un capot protecteur 32 dont la base vient coopérer avec une rainure 34 prévue dans le corps 2 du récipient 1.In the storage position, the applicator 8 is placed so that its cylindrical sleeve 31 comes to be placed in the recess 17 of the upper wall 16 c of the push button 16, so as to be able to cover the dispensing head. a protective cover 32. In this way, the axis of the applicator 8 is parallel to the axis of the container 1 and the applicator 8 in no way projects beyond the container 1, which allows it to be covered by a protective cover 32, the base of which comes to cooperate with a groove 34 provided in the body 2 of the container 1.

Un autre mode de réalisation de la présente in­vention est représenté aux figures 3 à 5 et concerne un récipient non pressurisé du type "tube souple".Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figures 3 to 5 and relates to a non-pressurized container of the "flexible tube" type.

Ce tube souple 101 comporte à sa partie supé­rieure, une bague 102 portant extérieurement des canne­lures 103 ; la bague 102 définit le goulot de sortie du tube et vient de moulage avec lui. La partie inférieure de la bague 102 est munie d'une gorge 104,qui est elle-même reliée aux cannelures 103 par une paroi inclinée 105.This flexible tube 101 comprises at its upper part, a ring 102 externally carrying grooves 103; the ring 102 defines the outlet neck of the tube and comes from molding with it. The lower part of the ring 102 is provided with a groove 104, which is itself connected to the grooves 103 by an inclined wall 105.

La tête de distribution 106 comporte à sa partie inférieure deux jupes concentriques : une jupe d'étanchéité 107, qui s'applique sur la paroi interne de la bague 102, et une jupe d'accrochage 108 qui comporte à sa partie inférieure un bourrelet 109 coopérant avec la gorge 104. Les deux jupes 107 et 108 sont raccordées à un fond 110 dans lequel débouche le canal axial 111 délimité par la jupe 107. La jupe d'accro­chage 108 comporte intérieurement des ailettes anti-rotation 108a, qui viennent s'engager, au montage, entre les canne­lures 103 de la bague 102.The dispensing head 106 has at its lower part two concentric skirts: a sealing skirt 107, which is applied to the internal wall of the ring 102, and a hooking skirt 108 which has at its lower part a bead 109 cooperating with the groove 104. The two skirts 107 and 108 are connected to a bottom 110 into which opens the axial channel 111 delimited by the skirt 107. The hanging skirt 108 internally comprises anti-rotation fins 108 a , which engage, during assembly, between the grooves 103 of the ring 102.

La tête de distribution 106 comprend une embase 113 qui surmonte le fond 110 et qui comprend un canal axial de petit diamètre 114 prolongeant le canal axial 111 ; une paroi tronconique 115 relie la paroi 116 du canal de plus petit diamètre 114 à la jupe cylindrique 107. Les canaux 111 et 114 constituent le canal d'éjection. L'embase 113 est délimitée, à sa partie supérieure comportant le canal axial 114, par une paroi cylindrique 117, qui est raccordée au fond 110 par une paroi oblique 118.The dispensing head 106 comprises a base 113 which surmounts the bottom 110 and which comprises an axial channel of small diameter 114 extending the axial channel 111; a frustoconical wall 115 connects the wall 116 of the smaller diameter channel 114 to the cylindrical skirt 107. The channels 111 and 114 constitute the ejection channel. The base 113 is delimited, at its upper part comprising the axial channel 114, by a cylindrical wall 117, which is connected to the bottom 110 by an oblique wall 118.

Dans le canal 114 débouche un canal 119 défini par une tubulure 120 perpendiculaire à la paroi 117 de l'embase 113.In the channel 114 opens a channel 119 defined by a tube 120 perpendicular to the wall 117 of the base 113.

L'applicateur 121 est constitué d'un plateau 122 de forme circulaire comportant, sur une face, dite face extérieure, des poils 123 et, sur son autre face, un manchon cylindrique 124 débouchant sensiblement au centre de ce pla­teau 122.The applicator 121 consists of a plate 122 of circular shape comprising, on one face, called the external face, of bristles 123 and, on its other face, a cylindrical sleeve 124 opening out substantially at the center of this plate 122.

Le manchon cylindrique 124 présente un dia­mètre intérieur légèrement supérieur au diamètre extérieur de la tubulure 120, afin de permettre l'emmanchement de l'applicateur 121 sur cette tubulure 120, avec un frottement suffisant pour assurer le maintien en place de l'applicateur 121 sur la tête de distribution 106.The cylindrical sleeve 124 has an inside diameter slightly greater than the outside diameter of the tubing 120, in order to allow the fitting of the applicator 121 on this tubing 120, with sufficient friction to keep the applicator 121 in place. the dispensing head 106.

la tête de distribution 106 comporte à son sommet un plot 125 sur lequel peut venir s'emmancher le manchon cylindrique 124 de l'applicateur 121, lorsque l'on veut recouvrir la tête de distribution 106 par un capot protecteur 126 dont la partie inférieure coopère avec un épaulement 127 situé sur la paroi oblique 128 reliant le corps 129 du récipient 101 à la base de la bague 102.the dispensing head 106 has at its top a stud 125 on which the cylindrical sleeve 124 of the applicator 121 can be fitted, when it is desired to cover the dispensing head 106 with a protective cover 126 whose lower part cooperates with a shoulder 127 situated on the oblique wall 128 connecting the body 129 of the container 101 to the base of the ring 102.
