Abstract

The capsule has a capsule body provided for closing one end of a container. The capsule body includes a top wall formed with a port and from which is formed a slide for a drawer covered by a top of an envelope fixedly connected to the capsule body and formed with an incision for a control knob. The control knob controls the drawer and is associated with a cursor closing the incision.

Description

La présente invention concerne les capsules destinées à être mises en place sur des récipients tels que des flacons pour permettre la fermeture étanche et l'ouverture de ces flacons sans qu'il y ait lieu de retirer la capsule.The present invention relates to capsules intended to be placed on containers such as bottles to allow the sealed closure and opening of these bottles without the need to remove the capsule.

La technique antérieure a fait connaître différents types de capsules du genre rappelé ci-dessus et notamment des capsules comportant un bec d'obturation pivotant ou comportant un obturateur mobile verticalement lorsque l'enveloppe de la capsule est tournée d'un angle déterminé.The prior art has made known different types of capsules of the type recalled above and in particular capsules comprising a pivoting closure spout or comprising a shutter movable vertically when the envelope of the capsule is rotated by a determined angle.

Certaines des capsules ci-dessus donnent entière satisfaction mais ne permettent pas une réalisation rendant possible que le produit contenu dans le récipient puisse être versé à travers la paroi latérale de la capsule.Some of the above capsules are entirely satisfactory but do not allow an embodiment making it possible that the product contained in the container can be poured through the side wall of the capsule.

La présente invention concerne une nouvelle capsule qui permet de verser le contenu d'un récipient à travers sa paroi latérale quelle que soit la forme de celle-ci tout en assurant une fermeture étanche dudit récipient et cela par le simple déplacement d'un bouton de manoeuvre accessible de l'extérieur de la capsule et manoeuvrable par rapport à celle-ci sans qu'il en résulte une ouverture visible d'une partie de ladite capsule.The present invention relates to a new capsule which makes it possible to pour the contents of a container through its side wall regardless of the shape thereof while ensuring a tight closure of said container and this by the simple movement of a button. maneuver accessible from the outside of the capsule and maneuverable relative thereto without this resulting in a visible opening of part of said capsule.

Parmi les documents de la technique antérieure, il y a lieu de noter ce qui suit.Among the prior art documents, the following should be noted.

FR-A-2233248 décrit une capsule comportant un distributeur à tiroir devant être poussé respectivement par l'une et l'autre de ses deux extrémités selon qu'il est recherché que le tiroir mette en coïncidence son ouverture d'entrée avec une lumière de la capsule ou, réciproquement, que cette coïncidence soit supprimée.FR-A-2233248 describes a capsule comprising a dispenser with a drawer which must be pushed respectively by one and the other of its two ends depending on whether it is desired that the drawer coincides its inlet opening with a light of the capsule or, conversely, that this coincidence be removed.

Pour repousser le tiroir en position de fermeture de la capsule, il faut agir sur la partie distributrice de ce tiroir, c'est-à-dire qu'il y a un risque évident de souillure du produit que distribue le tiroir. De plus, si le tiroir n'a pas été complètement vidé, ce qui est le cas absolument général pour une capsule pour flacon de produit cosmétique, il y a nécessairement un écoulement du produit demeurant dans le tiroir.To push the drawer into the closed position of the capsule, it is necessary to act on the dispensing part of this drawer, that is to say that there is an obvious risk of staining of the product that the drawer distributes. In addition, if the drawer has not been completely emptied, which is the absolutely general case for a capsule for a bottle of cosmetic product, there is necessarily a flow of product remaining in the drawer.

FR-A-1485950 décrit une fermeture à tiroir tout à fait semblable à celle de FR-A-2233248 ci-dessus et, par conséquent, les mêmes remarques s'appliquent.FR-A-1485950 describes a drawer closure quite similar to that of FR-A-2233248 above and, therefore, the same remarks apply.

Toutefois, le document de la technique le plus proche de l'invention est US-A-1901413 qui décrit une capsule selon la première partie de la revendication 1, comportant un rideau constitué par une lamelle souple déplaçable dans un canal prévu au sommet de la partie distributrice d'un récipient. Le rideau comporte une lumière pouvant être amenée en coïncidence avec le goulot du récipient.However, the document of the technique closest to the invention is US-A-1901413 which describes a capsule according to the first part of claim 1, comprising a curtain constituted by a flexible strip movable in a channel provided at the top of the dispensing part of a container. The curtain has a light which can be brought into coincidence with the neck of the container.

Cette réalisation présente donc quelque analogie avec une des parties du curseur associé au tiroir du dispositif selon la présente demande de brevet, mais il doit être constaté que le document antérieur ne comporte pas de tiroir puisque c'est le rideau qui en remplit la fonction.This embodiment therefore has some analogy with one of the parts of the cursor associated with the drawer of the device according to this patent application, but it should be noted that the document front does not have a drawer since it is the curtain that fulfills its function.

Le document US-A-1901413 ci-dessus a ainsi été utilisé pour délimiter la partie d'introduction de la revendication principale annexée dont la partie caractérisante fait bien ressortir l'invention.Document US-A-1901413 above was thus used to delimit the introductory part of the appended main claim, the characterizing part of which clearly highlights the invention.

Il résulte de la mise en oeuvre des moyens énoncés dans la revendication principale que, dans une première position du tiroir associé au curseur, les différentes ouvertures délimitées dans le dispositif sont obturées et que, dans une seconde position du tiroir, ces ouvertures sont mises deux à deux en coïncidence, la partie antérieure du tiroir faisant en outre saillie à travers un passage formé par les ouvertures de l'enveloppe et du curseur.It results from the implementation of the means set out in the main claim that, in a first position of the drawer associated with the cursor, the different openings delimited in the device are closed and that, in a second position of the drawer, these openings are placed two two in coincidence, the front part of the drawer also projecting through a passage formed by the openings of the envelope and the slider.

Ainsi, les moyens énoncée à la revendication permettent une double obturation. Il est en outre possible d'isoler complètement la capsule proprement dite qui est complètement recouverte par l'enveloppe qui la coiffe, enveloppe qui est parfaitement close lorsque la capsule doit être inutilisée.Thus, the means set out in the claim allow a double shutter. It is also possible to completely isolate the capsule itself which is completely covered by the envelope which covers it, an envelope which is perfectly closed when the capsule is to be unused.

Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit et des revendications secondaires annexées.Various other characteristics of the invention will moreover emerge from the detailed description which follows and from the appended secondary claims.

Une forme de réalisation de l'invention est représentée, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, au dessin annexé.

  • La fig. 1 est une coupe-élévation d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention.
  • La fig. 2 est une coupe-élévation analogue à la fig. 1 illustrant une position caractéristique d'un tiroir que comporte la capsule de la fig. 1.

An embodiment of the invention is shown, by way of nonlimiting example, in the accompanying drawing.
  • Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation of an embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation similar to FIG. 1 illustrating a characteristic position of a drawer that includes the capsule of FIG. 1.
  • Fig.3 is a section along line III-III of fig. 1.
  • Fig. 4 is a top view corresponding to FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the drawer and the slider that the capsule of the previous figures includes.
  • Fig. 6 is an elevation seen along line VI-VI of FIG. 5.
  • Fig. 7 is a top view corresponding to FIG. 5.

La capsule illustrée au dessin est destinée à être mise en place sur un récipient 1, par exemple un flacon, qui est schématisé en traits mixtes à la fig. 1.The capsule illustrated in the drawing is intended to be placed on a container 1, for example a bottle, which is shown diagrammatically in phantom in FIG. 1.

Le récipient 1 comporte un goulot 2 sur lequel est monté le corps 3 de la capsule. Le corps 3 peut être relié au récipient 1 par tous moyens appropriés, par exemple par un filetage et un taraudage, par un moyen d'encliquetage ou par tout autre moyen connu dans la technique.The container 1 has a neck 2 on which the body 3 of the capsule is mounted. The body 3 can be connected to the container 1 by any suitable means, for example by threading and tapping, by latching means or by any other means known in the art.

Bien que cela ne soit pas nécessaire dans tous les cas le corps 3 présente avantageusement une jupe d'étanchéité 4 pénétrant dans le goulot 2 et s'appliquant contre la paroi interne de celui-ci.Although this is not necessary in all cases, the body 3 advantageously has a sealing skirt 4 penetrating into the neck 2 and pressing against the internal wall of the latter.

Le corps 3 est fermé sur son dessus par une paroi 5 dans laquelle est pratiquée une lumière 6.The body 3 is closed on its top by a wall 5 in which a lumen 6 is made.

Le corps 3 forme, également sur son dessus, une glissière 7 délimitant un couloir transversal 8 qui communique avec des encoches latérales 9, 10.The body 3 also forms, on its top, a slide 7 delimiting a transverse passage 8 which communicates with lateral notches 9, 10.

La glissière 7 sert au guidage d'un tiroir 11 délimitant un bouton de manoeuvre 12 formé de préférence près d'une extrémité.The slide 7 is used for guiding a drawer 11 delimiting an operating button 12 preferably formed near one end.

Le tiroir 11 présente un canal longitudinal 13 et une ouverture 13a normalement fermée par la paroi 5 du corps 3 comme l'illustre la fig. 1 mais pouvant également être amenée en coïncidence avec la lumière 6 décrite dans ce qui précède, ce qu'illustre la fig. 2.The drawer 11 has a longitudinal channel 13 and an opening 13a normally closed by the wall 5 of the body 3 as illustrated in FIG. 1 but can also be brought into coincidence with the light 6 described in the foregoing, as illustrated in FIG. 2.

Le tiroir 11 comporte, sur son dessus, un curseur flexible 14 formant une partie antérieure 14a et une partie postérieure 14b. La partie antérieure 14a du curseur présente, sur une partie de sa longueur, une ouverture 15 dont la largeur est au moins égale à celle de la partie antérieure du tiroir 11.The drawer 11 has, on its top, a flexible slider 14 forming an anterior part 14a and a posterior part 14b. The front part 14a of the cursor has, over a part of its length, an opening 15 whose width is at least equal to that of the front part of the drawer 11.

Le curseur 14 peut être rapporté au tiroir 11 par exemple emboîté sur le bouton de manoeuvre 12 ou il peut être formé d'une seule pièce avec le tiroir 11 ce qui peut être réalisé facilement par moulage, par injection d'une matière thermoplastique telle que du polyéthylène ou du polyamide.The cursor 14 can be attached to the drawer 11, for example fitted on the operating button 12 or it can be formed in one piece with the drawer 11 which can be easily achieved by molding, by injection of a thermoplastic material such as polyethylene or polyamide.

L'ensemble corps 3, tiroir 11 et curseur 14 sont recouverts par une enveloppe 16 qui est enfilée sur le corps 3 et verrouillée à celui-ci par tous moyens appropriés tels qu'un jonc 17.The body 3, drawer 11 and slider 14 assembly are covered by an envelope 16 which is threaded onto the body 3 and locked to the latter by any appropriate means such as a rod 17.

Le dessin montre que le tiroir 11 et par conséquent le curseur 14 sont maintenus en place dans le couloir transversal 8 de la glissière 7 par l'enveloppe 16.The drawing shows that the drawer 11 and consequently the cursor 14 are held in place in the transverse passage 8 of the slide 7 by the envelope 16.

La longueur de la partie antérieure 14a du curseur 14 est choisie de manière qu'elle obture un trou 18 de l'enveloppe 16 lorsque le tiroir se trouve dans la position pour laquelle l'ouverture 13a est décalée par rapport à la lumière 6.The length of the front part 14a of the slider 14 is chosen so that it closes a hole 18 in the casing 16 when the drawer is in the position for which the opening 13a is offset from the light 6.

En effet, dans cette position, l'extrémité de la partie antérieure du curseur est pliée et engagée dans l'encoche 9 délimitée par le corps 3 et l'enveloppe 16.In fact, in this position, the end of the front part of the slider is folded and engaged in the notch 9 delimited by the body 3 and the envelope 16.

De manière analogue, la partie postérieure 14b du curseur est pliée et engagée dans l'encoche 10 délimitée par le corps 3 de l'enveloppe 16. L'ouverture 15 du curseur 14 se trouve, par ailleurs, en dessous du dessus 16a de l'enveloppe 16 et en conséquence une saignée 19 pratiquée dans le dessus 16a de l'enveloppe 16 est obturée par le curseur 14.Similarly, the rear part 14b of the cursor is folded and engaged in the notch 10 delimited by the body 3 of the envelope 16. The opening 15 of the cursor 14 is, moreover, below the top 16a of the envelope 16 and consequently a groove 19 formed in the top 16a of envelope 16 is closed by the cursor 14.

Lorsqu'on désire utiliser le produit contenu dans le récipient 1, on agit sur le bouton de manoeuvre 12 afin de le déplacer dans la saignée 19 dans la position illustrée à la fig. 2.When it is desired to use the product contained in the container 1, action is taken on the operating button 12 in order to move it in the groove 19 in the position illustrated in FIG. 2.

Ce mouvement a pour effet de déplacer le tiroir 11 et le curseur 14 dont l'ouverture 15 vient progressivement en coïncidence avec le trou 18 de l'enveloppe 16 pour permettre à l'extrémité antérieure dudit tiroir de traverser tout d'abord ladite ouverture 15 puis ensuite le trou 18 en faiaant saillie au-delà de l'enveloppe 16.This movement has the effect of moving the drawer 11 and the slider 14, the opening 15 of which gradually comes into coincidence with the hole 18 of the casing 16 to allow the anterior end of said drawer to pass first through said opening 15 and then the hole 18 by protruding beyond the casing 16.

Dans cette position, la lumière 6 est en coïncidence avec l'ouverture 13a du canal longitudinal 13 du tiroir.In this position, the lumen 6 is in coincidence with the opening 13a of the longitudinal channel 13 of the drawer.

La fig. 2 montre que, dans la position d'ouverture, la partie postérieure 14b du curseur obture la saignée 19 de sorte que l'intérieur de l'enveloppe 16 est constamment isolé de l'extérieur quelle que soit la position du tiroir.Fig. 2 shows that, in the open position, the rear part 14b of the slider closes the groove 19 so that the inside of the envelope 16 is constantly isolated from the outside whatever the position of the drawer.

On notera que le corps 3 et l'enveloppe 16 peuvent être également fabriqués par moulage, par injection de matières thermoplastiques. La nature de celles-ci peut être différente de celle utilisées pour la réalisation du curseur et du tiroir. Les matières constitutives au moins du curseur doivent être choisies parmi celles présentant une bonne élasticité pour permettre le déplacement et la déformation élastique des parties antérieure 14a et postérieure 14b.It will be noted that the body 3 and the casing 16 can also be manufactured by molding, by injection of thermoplastic materials. The nature of these can be different from that used for the realization of the cursor and the drawer. The constituent materials at least of the cursor must be chosen from those having a good elasticity to allow the displacement and the elastic deformation of the anterior parts 14a and posterior 14b.
