Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for cosmetics, in particular a mascara unit, comprising a base body made of a relatively soft material, in particular a relatively soft plastic, with a threaded attachment, onto which a screw cap can be screwed, in the foot area of the threaded attachment at least one stop shoulder and at least one backstop in the form of a latching arrangement are provided on the shoulder of the container in order to achieve a defined end position of the screw cap.
  • Containers for cosmetics of the type described above generally have a rectangular or oval, in any case not circularly symmetrical cross-section on, so that it is very important to achieve an attractive appearance in the closed state that the outer walls of the closure cap and the container are exactly aligned with one another or are oriented in a defined manner to one another.
  • At least one stop shoulder is provided, which defines the end position in a defined manner, on the other hand by a backstop, which generally consists of a locking projection and a locking recess, and which ensures that the closure cap is removed from it on the stop shoulder cannot move back to the adjacent position.
  • a backstop which generally consists of a locking projection and a locking recess, and which ensures that the closure cap is removed from it on the stop shoulder cannot move back to the adjacent position.
  • the object of the invention is to design a container of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that even when using relatively soft plastics for the container, even with repeated or frequent actuation of the closure system, its functional properties are maintained unchanged.
  • the attachment has a sleeve-shaped approach that extends over the top of the container. Accordingly, the attachment can simply be attached to the container.
  • the top of the container has a reduced diameter in the region of the sleeve attachment, so that the outside of the sleeve attachment and the container are flush with one another in the assembled state.
  • the attachment is preferably made of metal or a relatively hard plastic. In the production of metal, a decorative effect can be achieved at the same time with the improvement of the properties.
  • plastic for. B. polyamide or polyoxymethylene, polyformaldehyde, polyethylene terephthalate or polyacetal, especially in metallized form, into consideration. A gold or silver-colored metallization is preferred. Even without metallization, a decorative effect can be achieved by using a different plastic. In contrast to conventional decoration processes, e.g. B. All-round embossing process, the container shoulder itself can be decorated.
  • the screw cap can Have thread insert made of a relatively hard plastic.
  • the barrier properties do not have to be taken into account, unlike the container. Accordingly, by choosing a relatively hard plastic, wear and tear on the counterpart counterparts of the stop shoulder and the backstop can be prevented.
  • a mascara application element is attached to the insert. This can be injection molded in one piece with the insert.
  • the attachment is positively attached to the container in a rotationally fixed manner, z. B. rib-groove arrangements extending parallel to the longitudinal axis can be provided. In the case of non-circular cross-sections, such an alignment results automatically.
  • the alignment of the attachment relative to the container is important because the stop shoulder and backstop must be in a defined position with respect to the container thread, in particular the thread start.
  • a container 1 shown in the drawing is provided with a screw cap 2, the container and cap having an outer contour which is practically formed by two circular sections which are connected by two parallel straight lines, i. H. the outer contour is not round and for achieving a favorable visual appearance it is important that the screw cap 2 is positioned exactly on the container 1 when it is in the closed state.
  • an attachment 3 is placed, which is made of metal in the embodiment.
  • the attachment 3 comprises a sleeve-like extension 4, which engages over the top 5 of the container 1, the radius R on this top 5 being tapered relative to the rest of the container 1, so that the outer surfaces 6 and 7 of the sleeve extension 4 and the container 1 are aligned.
  • a substantially radially extending section 8 adjoins the sleeve extension 4 and surrounds a recess 9 for a threaded extension 10 with an external thread 11 of the container 1.
  • Two locking projections 12 and two stop shoulders 13 are formed on the radially extending section 8 offset from one another by 180 °, the stop shoulders 13 extending parallel to the longitudinal axis 22 of the attachment 3 or of the container 1.
  • the screw cap 2 has an inserted insert 14 which is fixed radially via holding ribs 15 arranged on the inside of the cap 2 and axially via a stop collar 16 in connection with a stop shoulder 17 on the cap 2.
  • the insert 14 has on the lower inside of its cylindrical base body a threaded section 18 with a thread that corresponds to the external thread 11.
  • An application element or a holder for an application element 19 is molded onto the insert 14.
  • the holding handle 20 of the application element 19 is surrounded by a sealing insert 21 also made of plastic in a manner known per se.
  • the insert 14 is made of a relatively hard plastic and is thus wear-resistant, i.e. H. for example, it is made of rigid PVC.
