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 of a relatively soft plastic, the base body having a one-piece molded attachment, onto which a screw cap can be screwed, at least one stop shoulder and at least one backstop in the form of a latching arrangement being provided in the foot region of the threaded attachment 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, at least 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 to one another in a defined manner.
  • At least one stop shoulder is provided, which defines the end position in a defined manner, on the other hand by a backstop, which usually 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 usually 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.
  • a mascara application element is attached to the insert. This can be injection molded in one piece with the insert.
  • the attachment is placed on the container in a non-rotatable manner, with z. B. parallel to the longitudinal axis rib-groove arrangements can be provided.
  • z. B. parallel to the longitudinal axis rib-groove arrangements can be provided.
  • 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 beginning of the thread.
  • 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 to achieve 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 overlaps 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.
  • 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 retaining 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, which is 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.
