Description

La présente invention concerne un nouveau dispositif distributeur et applicateur permettant d'ouvrir et fermer un flacon qui le comporte par une simple poussée axiale exercée sur un ou plusieurs boutons pouvant faire saillie du distributeur.The present invention relates to a new dispenser and applicator device making it possible to open and close a bottle which comprises it by a simple axial thrust exerted on one or more buttons which can project from the dispenser.

Le distributeur du dispositif de l'invention peut être absolument quelconque sans que les autres moyens mis en oeuvre doivent être modifiés.The dispenser of the device of the invention can be absolutely arbitrary without the other means used having to be modified.

Le dispositif de l'invention permet également d'assurer l'étanchéité quelle que soit la position de son organe obturateur, c'est-à-dire que le contenu d'un flacon sur lequel le dispositif est monté ne peut s'écouler que vers l'extérieur du distributeur lorsque cet écoulement est autorisé.The device of the invention also makes it possible to ensure sealing whatever the position of its shutter member, that is to say that the contents of a bottle on which the device is mounted can flow only towards the outside of the dispenser when this flow is authorized.

De par sa constitution, le dispositif de l'invention peut être réalisé simplement par un petit nombre de pièces pouvant être fabriquées par moulage par injection de matière plastique.By virtue of its constitution, the device of the invention can be produced simply by a small number of parts which can be manufactured by injection molding of plastic material.

L'invention est définie par la revendication 1.The invention is defined by claim 1.

Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit.Various other characteristics of the invention will also emerge from the detailed description which follows.

Une forme de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention est représentée, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, aux dessins annexés.

  • La fig. 1 est une coupe-élévation longitudinale du dispositif de l'invention.
  • La fig. 2 est une coupe transversale vue selon la ligne II-II de la fig. 1.
  • La fig. 3 est une coupe vue sensiblement suivant la ligne III-III de la fig. 2.
  • La fig. 4 est une coupe partielle vue sensiblement suivant la ligne IV-IV de la fig. 2.
An embodiment of the object of the invention is shown, by way of nonlimiting example, in the accompanying drawings.
  • Fig. 1 is a longitudinal sectional elevation of the device of the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a cross section seen along line II-II of FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 3 is a section seen substantially along line III-III of FIG. 2.
  • Fig. 4 is a partial section seen substantially along line IV-IV of FIG. 2.

Le dessin montre de façon schématique un récipient 1 par exemple un flacon délimitant un goulot 2.The drawing schematically shows a container 1, for example a bottle delimiting a neck 2.

La forme en section du récipient 1 peut être absolument quelconque. Le dessin montre que cette forme peut, par exemple, être approximativement ovoïde avec de petits côtés plats.The cross-sectional shape of the container 1 can be absolutely arbitrary. The drawing shows that this shape can, for example, be approximately ovoid with small flat sides.

Le dessus du goulot supporte un bouchon 3 qui le recouvre et qui est fixé avantageusement par un jonc 4 entrant dans une rainure 5 du goulot.The top of the neck supports a plug 3 which covers it and which is advantageously fixed by a rod 4 entering a groove 5 of the neck.

Le bouchon 3 délimite à l'intérieur du goulot une douille 6 cylindrique dont la base 7 (fig. 1) présente des lumières 8 (fig. 2). La base 7 supporte un doigt obturateur 9 à extrémité tronconique.The plug 3 delimits inside the neck a cylindrical socket 6 whose base 7 (fig. 1) has openings 8 (fig. 2). The base 7 supports a shutter finger 9 with a frustoconical end.

Une douille 10 est enfilée sur le goulot 2 et comporte une cloison transversale 11 à partir de laquelle font saillie une jupe d'étanchéité inférieure 12, une jupe d'étanchéité supérieure 13 et une bague 14 à paroi interne tronconique pour prendre appui sur l'extrémité tronconique du doigt obturateur 9.A sleeve 10 is threaded on the neck 2 and comprises a transverse partition 11 from which protrude a lower sealing skirt 12, an upper sealing skirt 13 and a ring 14 with frustoconical internal wall to bear on the frustoconical end of the obturator finger 9.

La jupe d'étanchéité inférieure 12 est appliquée contre la paroi interne de la douille 6 tandis que la jupe d'étanchéité supérieure 13 prend appui contre la paroi d'un fourreau 15 qui forme un distributeur désigné dans son ensemble par 16.The lower sealing skirt 12 is applied against the internal wall of the sleeve 6 while the upper sealing skirt 13 bears against the wall of a sleeve 15 which forms a distributor designated as a whole by 16.

La douille 10 forme supplémentairement au moins un bouton d'actionnement 17 et de préférence deux comme montré aux fig. 2 et 3. Le ou les boutons 17 font saillie par une ou des lumières 18 prévues dans la paroi latérale 19 du distributeur 16.The socket 10 additionally forms at least one actuation button 17 and preferably two as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. The button (s) 17 protrude through one or more openings 18 provided in the side wall 19 of the dispenser 16.

La paroi latérale 19 du distributeur 16 est fixée par un moyen quelconque au récipient 1 par exemple au moyen d'un jonc 20 entrant dans une gorge 21. Le distributeur 16 présente au moins un trou de distribution 22 pratiqué à l'intérieur du fourreau 15.The side wall 19 of the distributor 16 is fixed by any means to the container 1 for example by means of a rod 20 entering a groove 21. The distributor 16 has at least one distribution hole 22 made inside the sheath 15 .

Comme cela ressort de ce qui précède, le distributeur 16 est fixe par rapport au récipient 1 et il en est de même du bouchon 3. Par contre, la douille 10 peut être coulissée le long du goulot 2 de manière que la bague 14 agisse comme élément de fermeture avec le doigt obturateur 9.As is apparent from the above, the distributor 16 is fixed relative to the container 1 and the same is true of the stopper 3. On the other hand, the sleeve 10 can be slid along the neck 2 so that the ring 14 acts as closing element with the shutter finger 9.

Si on le désire, pour éviter que la douille 10 puisse tourner par rapport au goulot 2, des nervures et cannelures coopérantes 23 peuvent être formées entre ces organes. Il est possible, aussi, d'empêcher la rotation de la douille 10 simplement en la guidant par son ou ses boutons 17 à l'intérieur de la ou des lumières 18 du distributeur 16.If desired, to prevent the sleeve 10 from rotating relative to the neck 2, cooperating ribs and grooves 23 can be formed between these members. It is also possible to prevent rotation of the socket 10 simply by guiding it by its button or buttons 17 inside the opening or openings 18 of the dispenser 16.

Le distributeur 16 peut comporter un ou plusieurs organes applicateurs 24 constitués par exemple par un cylindre comportant des axes 25, 26 dont l'un, l'axe 26 en l'occurrence, est formé par un bouchon 27 engagé dans le cylindre, cette réalisation en deux pièces facilitant une fabrication simple par moulage par injection d'une matière plastique ou analogue.The dispenser 16 may include one or more applicator members 24 constituted for example by a cylinder comprising axes 25, 26 one of which, the axis 26 in this case, is formed by a plug 27 engaged in the cylinder, this embodiment in two parts facilitating simple manufacture by injection molding of a plastic material or the like.

Les axes 25, 26 sont engagés par déformation élastique dans des concavités 28, 29 que présentent des flasques 30, 31 formés par le distributeur 16 qui peut de la même façon que les autres pièces décrites ci-dessus être réalisé de façon simple par moulage par injection de matière plastique.The axes 25, 26 are engaged by elastic deformation in concavities 28, 29 which have flanges 30, 31 formed by the distributor 16 which can, in the same way as the other parts described above, be produced in a simple manner by molding by plastic injection.

L'organe applicateur 24 peut, de façon connue en soi dans la technique, être remplacé par tout autre organe de même nature tel que des billes, des anneaux, etc., le dessus du distributeur 16 étant évidemment conformé de façon appropriée connue dans la technique pour ces organes applicateurs.The applicator member 24 may, in a manner known per se in the art, be replaced by any other member of the same nature such as balls, rings, etc., the top of the dispenser 16 obviously being shaped in an appropriate manner known in the art. technique for these applicators.

Lorsque les différentes pièces se trouvent dans la position illustrée au dessin, la bague 14 prend appui contre la partie tronconique du doigt obturateur 9 et, par conséquent, le récipient 1 est fermé puisque le produit qu'il contient ne peut pas s'écouler vers le trou 22 par les lumières 8 et le canal annulaire séparant la douille 6 de la paroi externe du doigt obturateur.When the various parts are in the position illustrated in the drawing, the ring 14 bears against the frustoconical part of the shutter finger 9 and, consequently, the container 1 is closed since the product which it contains cannot flow towards the hole 22 through the slots 8 and the annular channel separating the sleeve 6 from the external wall of the shutter finger.

En agissant sur l'un au moins des boutons 17 pour le déplacer dans le sens de la flèche f₁ (fig. 2), la douille 10 est soulevée de même que la bague 14. Par conséquent, le produit contenu dans le récipient peut s'écouler vers le trou 22, l'étanchéité étant toutefois assurée en permanence par la jupe d'étanchéité inférieure 12 et la jupe d'étanchéité supérieure 13 qui sont déplacées en même temps que la douille 10.By acting on at least one of the buttons 17 to move it in the direction of the arrow f ₁ (fig. 2), the sleeve 10 is raised as is the ring 14. Consequently, the product contained in the container can flow towards the hole 22, the sealing being however permanently ensured by the lower sealing skirt 12 and the upper sealing skirt 13 which are moved at the same time as the bush 10.

Outre ce qui précède, le dispositif comporte avantageusement un couvercle 32 conformé pour présenter au moins un épaulement 33 correspondant aux boutons 17. De cette manière, lorsque le couvercle 32 est mis en place, il déplace automatiquement les boutons 17 dans le sens contraire à la flèche f₁, ce qui a pour effet d'assurer une fermeture automatique du dispositif même si cette fermeture a été fortuitement oubliée avant la mise en place du couvercle.In addition to the above, the device advantageously comprises a cover 32 shaped to present at least one shoulder 33 corresponding to the buttons 17. In this way, when the cover 32 is put in place, it automatically moves the buttons 17 in the opposite direction to the arrow f ₁, which has the effect of ensuring an automatic closing of the device even if this closing was accidentally forgotten before the fitting of the cover.

L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation représentés et décrits en détail, car diverses modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir de son cadre. En particulier, le distributeur 16 peut ne pas comporter d'organes applicateurs du type cylindrique mais être seulement conformé pour que sa surface supérieure forme applicateur ou encore qu'il assure simplement la distribution par le trou de distribution 22 ou un embout placé dans ce trou. De même, la paroi externe du bouchon 3 peut servir directement de guide à la douille 10, ce qui évite de prévoir une conformation particulière à la paroi externe du goulot 2. Dans une variante simplifiée, la douille 10 peut être réduite en hauteur pour former seulement les boutons 17, son guidage étant assuré par la jupe inférieure 12 et la jupe supérieure 13.The invention is not limited to the embodiments shown and described in detail, because various modifications can be made without departing from its scope. In particular, the dispenser 16 may not include applicator members of the cylindrical type but may only be shaped so that its upper surface forms an applicator or else that it simply distributes through the dispensing hole 22 or a nozzle placed in this hole. . Likewise, the external wall of the plug 3 can serve directly as a guide for the sleeve 10, which avoids providing a particular conformation to the external wall of the neck 2. In a simplified variant, the sleeve 10 can be reduced in height to form only the buttons 17, its guidance being provided by the lower skirt 12 and the upper skirt 13.
