Description

"Dispositif de déliyrance d'un produit quelconque contenu dans un réservoir à paroi déformable". "Device for deliyrance of any product contained in a tank with a deformable wall".
La présente invention a essentiellement pour objet un dispositif de délivrance d'un produit quelconque contenu dans un réservoir à paroi déformable.The present invention essentially relates to a device for delivering any product contained in a tank with a deformable wall.
On a déjà depuis longtemps proposé sur Te marché des tubes formant un réservoir à paroi déformable et susceptible de contenir un produit quelconque, tel qu'une pâte, qui peut être délivré par un orifice, sous l'effet d'une pression exercée sur la paroi du tube.It has already been proposed on the market for a long time on the market for tubes forming a reservoir with a deformable wall and capable of containing any product, such as a paste, which can be delivered by an orifice, under the effect of a pressure exerted on the tube wall.
Mais un tel dispositif de délivrance présente des inconvénients, en ce sens que la pression exercée sur le tube demeure toujours aléatoire, et il arrive souvent que la paroi du tube, du fait de trop nombreuses sollicitations, se détériore et va même jusqu'à se percer, ce qui provoque des fuites de produit.However, such a delivery device has drawbacks, in that the pressure exerted on the tube always remains random, and it often happens that the wall of the tube, due to too many stresses, deteriorates and even goes as far as pierce, causing product to leak.
Par ailleurs, on connaît également des récipients pouvant contenir un produit quelconque qui peut être délivré en exerçant une pression sur un moyen mécanique, tel que par exemple un bouton-poussoir, extérieur à la paroi du récipient.Furthermore, containers are also known which may contain any product which can be delivered by exerting pressure on a mechanical means, such as for example a push button, outside the wall of the container.
Mais un tel moyen mécanique extérieur n'est pas sans présenter de nombreux inconvénients. En effet, un tel moyen augmente l'encombrement du récipient, nuit bien souvent à son esthétique, et surtout exige la prévision d'un système d'étanchéité qui n'est pas toujours fiable. Au surplus, un tel système d'étanchéité augmente le coût du récipient et peut favoriser le grippage du moyen mécanique de commande de la délivrance du produit.However, such an external mechanical means is not without many drawbacks. Indeed, such a means increases the size of the container, often detracts from its aesthetics, and above all requires the provision of a sealing system which is not always reliable. In addition, such a sealing system increases the cost of the container and can promote seizure of the mechanical means for controlling the delivery of the product.
Aussi, la présente invention a pour but de remédier notamment aux inconvénients ci-dessus en proposant un dispositif qui ne pose aucun problème d'étanchéité et qui permet la délivrance d'un produit quelconque d'une manière toujours fiable, précise et mesurée en fonction de la pression d'application.Also, the present invention aims to remedy in particular to the above drawbacks by proposing a device which poses no sealing problem and which allows the delivery of any product in a manner which is always reliable, precise and measured as a function of the application pressure.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de délivrance d'un produit quelconque contenu dans un réservoir à paroi déformable et faisant partie d'un corps muni d'un orifice obturable permettant la délivrance de ce produit, caractérisé par des moyens de commande de la délivrance du produit logés dans le réservoir et actionnables par une pression extérieure exercée sur la paroi déformable de ce réservoir.To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for delivering any product contained in a tank with a deformable wall and forming part of a body provided with a closable orifice allowing the delivery of this product, characterized by means for controlling the delivery of the product housed in the tank and actuable by an external pressure exerted on the deformable wall of this tank.
On comprend donc que la pression exercée extérieurement sur la paroi déformable du réservoir provoquera la délivrance du produit par l'intermédiaire d'un moyen de commande logé à l'intérieur du réservoir et permettant la- délivrance positive et fiable d'une certaine quantité de produit correspondant, d'une manière très précise, à la pression exercée latéralement sur la paroi du réservoir.It is therefore understood that the pressure exerted externally on the deformable wall of the reservoir will cause the delivery of the product by means of a control means housed inside the reservoir and allowing the positive and reliable delivery of a certain amount of product corresponding very precisely to the pressure exerted laterally on the wall of the tank.
Suivant un premier mode de réalisation, les moyens de commande précités sont constitués par une pièce en forme de secteur qui est montée articulée dans le réservoir sur un support solidaire du corps et qui coopère avec une tige actionnant un clapet susceptible d'obturer l'orifice précité.According to a first embodiment, the aforementioned control means consist of a sector-shaped part which is articulated in the tank on a support integral with the body and which cooperates with a rod actuating a valve capable of closing the orifice. cited above.
On précisera ici que la pièce en forme de secteur agit par poussée ou par traction sur la tige à 1 'encontre de la force d'au moins un ressort de rappel.It will be specified here that the sector-shaped part acts by pushing or pulling on the rod against the force of at least one return spring.
Suivant encore une autre caractéristique de ce dispositif, la pièce en forme de secteur est formée de deux flasques sensiblement parallèles entre lesquels est agencée une extrémité de la tige précitée.According to yet another characteristic of this device, the sector-shaped part is formed of two substantially parallel flanges between which is arranged one end of the aforementioned rod.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, les moyens de commande précités sont constitués par un bouton-poussoir disposé à l'intérieur du réservoir orthogonalement à l'axe du corps et engrenant avec un pignon qui est solidaire de ce corps et qui engrène lui-même avec une denture portée par une tige actionnant un clapet susceptible d'obturer l'orifice précité.According to another embodiment, the aforementioned control means consist of a push button disposed inside the tank orthogonally to the axis of the body and meshing with a pinion which is integral with this body and which meshes itself with toothing carried by a rod actuating a valve capable of closing the abovementioned orifice.
Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation, les moyens de commande précités sont constitués par une pièce mobile en forme d'etrier ou de U dont la base est sensiblement parallèle à la paroi du réservoir et dont les branches sont évidées de manière à former une rampe coopérant avec, l'extrémité d'une tige passant entre ces branches et actionnant un clapet susceptible d'obturer l'ori ice précité.According to yet another embodiment, the aforementioned control means consist of a movable piece in the shape of a stirrup or U whose base is substantially parallel to the wall of the tank and whose branches are hollowed out so as to form a ramp cooperating with, the end of a rod passing between these branches and actuating a valve capable of closing the abovementioned ori ice.
On précisera ici que la pièce en forme de U précitée coulisse par ses branches, orthogonalement à l'axe du corps, dans un support solidaire du corps.It will be specified here that the aforementioned U-shaped part slides by its branches, orthogonally to the axis of the body, in a support integral with the body.
Le support des modes de réalisation ci-dessus décrits est de préférence solidaire d'une tête comportant l'orifice et le clapet précités et dans laquelle coulisse la tige précitée. Le fait que le support soit solidaire de la tête facilite avantageusement l'assemblage des différentes pièces du dispositif lors de son montage .The support of the embodiments described above is preferably secured to a head comprising the orifice and the aforementioned valve and in which the aforementioned rod slides. The fact that the support is integral with the head advantageously facilitates the assembly of the various parts of the device during its assembly.
Avantageusement, le clapet comporte des poils formant un pinceau faisant saillie de l'orifice précité et permettant l'application du produit délivré par l'orifice sur une surface quelconque telle que la peau du corps humain ou les ongles.Advantageously, the valve comprises bristles forming a brush projecting from the abovementioned orifice and allowing the application of the product delivered by the orifice on any surface such as the skin of the human body or the nails.
Mais d'autres avantages et caractéristiques de 1 ' invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple, et dans lesquels :However, other advantages and characteristics of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the appended drawings, given solely by way of example, and in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue schématique et en coupe axiale d'un premier mode de réalisation de dispositif conforme au principe de l'invention et fonctionnant par poussée ;- Figure 1 is a schematic view in axial section of a first embodiment of the device according to the principle of the invention and operating by thrust;
- la figure 2 est une vue en coupe suivant la ligne II-II de la figure 1 .- Figure 2 is a sectional view along line II-II of Figure 1.
- la figure 3 est une vue schématique et en coupe axiale d'un deuxième mode de réalisation de dispositif conforme à 1 ' invention et onctionnant par traction ;- Figure 3 is a schematic view in axial section of a second embodiment of the device according to one invention and actuating by traction;
- la figure 4 est une vue schématique partielle et en coupe axiale d'encore un autre mode de réalisation de dispositif conforme au principe de l'invention ; et- Figure 4 is a partial schematic view in axial section of yet another embodiment of the device according to the principle of the invention; and
- la figure 5 est une vue en coupe axiale et perspective d'encore un autre mode de réalisation de dispositif de délivrance selon cette invention, illustré en position ouverte pour délivrer un produit.- Figure 5 is an axial sectional view and perspective of yet another embodiment of the delivery device according to this invention, illustrated in the open position for delivering a product.
En se reportant aux dessins annexés, on voit qu'un dispositif de délivrance conforme à cette invention comprend essentiellement un corps 1 formant un réservoir 2 destiné à contenir un produit quelconque, tel que par exemple un produit cosmétique et constitué d'une paroi 3 plus ou moins flexible, déformable et de préférence élastique 3, sur laquelle on peut exercer une pression extérieure et manuelle suivant la flèche F, de façon à actionner des moyens 4 de commande de délivrance du produit, qui sont logés dans le réservoir 2.Referring to the accompanying drawings, it can be seen that a delivery device according to this invention essentially comprises a body 1 forming a reservoir 2 intended to contain any product, such as for example a cosmetic product and consisting of a wall 3 more or less flexible, deformable and preferably elastic 3, on which an external and manual pressure can be exerted along arrow F, so as to actuate means 4 for controlling the delivery of the product, which are housed in the tank 2.
Le corps 1 est pourvu d'une tête 5 pourvue d'un orifice 6 de délivrance du produit, la tête 5 étant raccordée à la paroi 3 du réservoir 2 par tout moyen approprié, tel que vissage, sertissage, ou moulage en une seule pièce des deux éléments.The body 1 is provided with a head 5 provided with an orifice 6 for delivering the product, the head 5 being connected to the wall 3 of the reservoir 2 by any suitable means, such as screwing, crimping, or molding in one piece of the two elements.
Suivant les exemples de réalisation représentés sur les figures 1 et 3, les moyens de commande 4 sont constitués par une pièce en forme de secteur 7 qui est montée articulée dans le réservoir 2, et cela sur un support 8 solidaire de la tête 5. Plus précisément, le secteur 7 est monté pivotant en 9, au moyen d'un petit axe par exemple, sur le support 8. Ce secteur 7 peut, dans le cas de la réalisation de la figure 3, être formé de deux flasques 7a laissant entre eux un espace dont le rôle sera expliqué plus loin.According to the exemplary embodiments represented in FIGS. 1 and 3, the control means 4 are constituted by a sector-shaped part 7 which is articulated in the tank 2, and this on a support 8 secured to the head 5. More specifically, the sector 7 is pivotally mounted at 9, by means of a small axis for example, on the support 8. This sector 7 can, in the case of the embodiment of FIG. 3, be formed of two flanges 7a leaving between them a space whose role will be explained later.
La pièce 7 coopère avec une tige 10 montée coulissante dans la tête 5 et portant un clapet 11 solidarre d'une extrémité de ladite tige et susceptible d'obturer 1 'orifice 6.The part 7 cooperates with a rod 10 slidingly mounted in the head 5 and carrying a valve 11 integral with one end of the said rod and capable of closing the orifice 6.
Le clapet 11 peut comporter des poils 12 formant en quelque sorte un pinceau applicateur du produit contenu dans le réservoir 2. Au lieu d'utiliser un pinceau solidaire du clapet 11, on pourrait par aitement, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, utiliser une mèche qui serait solidaire soit de ce clapet 11, soit de la tête 5 comme montré sur la figure 1.The valve 11 may include bristles 12 forming a sort of brush for applying the product contained in the reservoir 2. Instead of using a brush secured to the valve 11, it would be possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to use a wick which would be secured either to this valve 11 or to the head 5 as shown in FIG. 1.
Dans la réalisation de la figure 1, à l'opposé du clapet 11, l'extrémité de la tige 10 prend appui sur le secteur 7. Ainsi, comme on le comprend bien en se reportant à la figure 1, en exerçant une pression latérale sur la paroi 3 du réservoir 2, et cela suivant la flèche F, on provoquera un basculement de la pièce 7, et donc une poussée sur la tige 10, de sorte que le clapet 11 se dégagera de son siège 14, pour permettre la délivrance d'une certaine quantité de produit contenu dans le réservoir 2.In the embodiment of FIG. 1, opposite the valve 11, the end of the rod 10 bears on the sector 7. Thus, as is well understood by referring to FIG. 1, by exerting a lateral pressure on the wall 3 of the tank 2, and this according to arrow F, one will cause a tilting of the part 7, and therefore a push on rod 10, so that the valve 11 will disengage from its seat 14, to allow the delivery of a certain quantity of product contained in the reservoir 2.
On observera ici que la poussée de la tige 10 s'effectue à l'encontre de la force de compression d'un ressort de rappel 15.It will be observed here that the thrust of the rod 10 takes place against the compression force of a return spring 15.
Il en résulte qu'en relâchant la pression latérale suivant un sens opposé à celui de la flèche F, la pièce 7 en forme de secteur reprendra sa position visible sur la figure 1 et dans laquelle le clapet 11 demeure appliqué sur son siège 14, ce qui réalise par conséquent l'obturation de l'ori ice 5.It follows that by releasing the lateral pressure in a direction opposite to that of the arrow F, the part 7 in the form of a sector will resume its visible position in FIG. 1 and in which the valve 11 remains applied to its seat 14, this which consequently obtains the orifice 5.
Bien que cela ne soit pas représenté, on pourrait prévoir un bouchon amovible et encastrable sur la tête 5.Although this is not shown, a removable and built-in stopper could be provided on the head 5.
Le mode de réalisation visible sur la figure 3 est sensiblement identique à celui de la figure 1, sauf qu'ici, en exerçant une pression extérieure sur la paroi latérale 3 du réservoir 2, on effectue, non pas une poussée, mais une traction sur la tige 10 portant le clapet 11, et cela à l'encontre de la force du ressort 15.The embodiment visible in FIG. 3 is substantially identical to that of FIG. 1, except that here, by exerting an external pressure on the side wall 3 of the tank 2, not a push is carried out, but a pull on the rod 10 carrying the valve 11, and this against the force of the spring 15.
Plus précisément, l'extrémité 16 de la tige 10, logée dans l'espace entre les flasques 7a de la pièce 7, porte un petit axe 17 retenu entre ces flasques. On voit que l'un des sommets des flasques 7a comporte une partie en forme de bec 13 susceptible de retenir le petit axe 17.More specifically, the end 16 of the rod 10, housed in the space between the flanges 7a of the part 7, carries a small axis 17 retained between these flanges. It can be seen that one of the tops of the flanges 7a has a beak-shaped portion 13 capable of retaining the minor axis 17.
Sur la figure 3, on voit encore que l'on a prévu, sur la tige 10, une butée 18 susceptible de limiter la course de cette tige à la traction, de façon à doser une certaine quantité de produit sortant par l'orifice 6. Plus précisément, cette butée 18 pourra, sous l'effet de la traction de la tige 10 coopérer avec l'embase 19 de raccordement de la tête 5 au réservoir 2, laquelle embase comporte des orifices 20 pour le passage du produit et un palier 21 permettant le coulissement guidé de la tige 10. On observera ici que la butée 18, en venant obturer les orifices 20, joue avantageusement le rôle d'un moyen de délivrance contrôlée du produit sortant par lesdits orifices.In FIG. 3, it can also be seen that a stop 18 has been provided on the rod 10 capable of limiting the stroke of this rod in traction, so as to dose a certain quantity of product leaving through the orifice 6 More specifically, this stop 18 may, under the effect of the traction of the rod 10 cooperate with the base 19 for connecting the head 5 to the tank 2, which base has orifices 20 for the passage of the product and a bearing 21 allowing the guided sliding of the rod 10. It will be observed here that the stop 18, by closing off the orifices 20, advantageously plays the role of a means of controlled delivery of the product leaving through said orifices.
Suivant la variante visible sur la figure 4, les moyens de commande 4 de délivrance du produit contenu dans le réservoir 2, comprennent essentiellement un bouton-poussoir 22 disposé à l'intérieur de ce réservoir orthogonalement à l'axe du corps 1, et engrenant avec un pignon 23 qui est solidaire de ce corps et qui engrène avec une denture 24 portée par la tige 10 actionnant le clapet 11. Bien entendu, le rapport d'engrenage pignon-denture est choisi de façon appropriée pour régler la course de la tige 10.According to the variant visible in Figure 4, the control means 4 for delivering the product contained in the tank 2, essentially comprises a push button 22 disposed inside this tank orthogonally to the axis of the body 1, and meshing with a pinion 23 which is integral with this body and which meshes with a toothing 24 carried by the rod 10 actuating the valve 11. Of course, the gear-to-gear ratio is chosen appropriately to adjust the stroke of the rod 10.
On a montré schématiquement en 25 des éléments de guidage du bouton-poussoir 22 et de la tige 10 qui est également montée coulissante dans la tête 5, étant entendu que, comme dans les modes de réalisation précédents, le clapet 11 porté par la tige 10 est logé dans la tête 5 et est constamment sollicité par un ressort 15. Le fonctionnement se déduit immédiatement de la description qui précède.There is shown schematically at 25 elements for guiding the push-button 22 and the rod 10 which is also slidably mounted in the head 5, it being understood that, as in the previous embodiments, the valve 11 carried by the rod 10 is housed in the head 5 and is constantly stressed by a spring 15. Operation immediately follows from the foregoing description.
Par poussée, suivant la flèche F, sur la paroi 3 du réservoir 2, on actionnera le bouton-poussoir 22 qui, par l'intermédiaire du pignon 23 fera descendre la tige 10, à l'encontre de la force du ressort de rappel 15, de sorte que le clapet 11 se dégagera de son siège 14, comme on le voit bien sur la figure 4.By pushing, along arrow F, on the wall 3 of the tank 2, the push button 22 will be actuated which, by means of the pinion 23 will cause the rod 10 to descend, against the force of the return spring 15 , so that the valve 11 will disengage from its seat 14, as can be seen in FIG. 4.
En relâchant la pression suivant la flèche F, le ressort 15 ramènera le clapet 11 contre son siège 14, ce qui provoquera la rotation en sens inverse du pignon 23, et par conséquent la remise en position du bout.on-poussoir 22 à proximité de la paroi interne du réservoir 2, de sorte que l'appareil sera prêt pour une nouvelle délivrance de produit en ré-appuyant sur la paroi latérale du réservoir suivant la flèche F.By releasing the pressure in the direction of arrow F, the spring 15 will bring the valve 11 against its seat 14, which will cause the pinion 23 to rotate in the opposite direction, and consequently to reposition the push button 22 near the internal wall of the tank 2, so that the device will be ready for a new delivery of product by re-pressing the side wall of the tank according to the arrow F.
Suivant la réalisation visible sur la figure 5, les moyens 4 de commande de la tige 10 sont essentiellement constitués par une pièce mobile 26 en forme d'etrier ou de U dont la base 27 est sensiblement parallèle à la paroi 3 du réservoir 2, et dont les deux branches 28 comportent chacune un evidement 29 réalisant une rampe 30 coopérant avec un petit axe transversal 33 solidaire de l'extrémité de la tige 10 opposée à celle portant le clapet 11.According to the embodiment visible in FIG. 5, the means 4 for controlling the rod 10 are essentially constituted by a movable part 26 in the shape of a stirrup or U whose base 27 is substantially parallel to the wall 3 of the tank 2, and the two branches 28 of which each have a recess 29 forming a ramp 30 cooperating with a small transverse axis 33 secured to the end of the rod 10 opposite to that carrying the valve 11.
La pièce 26 en forme de U est montée coulissante par ses branches 28, et cela orthogonalement à l'axe du corps 1, dans un support 8 présentant en quelque sorte la forme d'un manchon polygonal au travers duquel est ménagée une lumière transversale 32 recevant de façon coulissante et guidée la pièce 26. Mais on décrira brièvement ci-après le fonctionnement de la réalisation visible sur la figure 5.The U-shaped part 26 is slidably mounted by its branches 28, and this orthogonally to the axis of the body 1, in a support 8 having in a way the shape of a polygonal sleeve through which a transverse light 32 is formed slidingly and guided part 26. However, the operation of the embodiment visible in FIG. 5 will be briefly described below.
Par pression extérieure sur la paroi souple et déformable 3 du réservoir 2 suivant la flèche F, comme on le voit sur la figure 5, on actionnera transversalement la pièce 26, ce qui provoquera, grâce à la rampe 30, le déplacement de la tige 10, à l' encontre de la force du ressort de rappel 15, de sorte que le clapet 11 sera dégagé de son siège 14, et que du produit sera délivré par l'orifice 6 de la tête 5.By external pressure on the flexible and deformable wall 3 of the reservoir 2 along the arrow F, as seen in FIG. 5, the part 26 will be actuated transversely, which will cause, thanks to the ramp 30, the displacement of the rod 10 , against the force of the return spring 15, so that the valve 11 will be released from its seat 14, and that the product will be delivered through the orifice 6 of the head 5.
En relâchant la pression suivant la flèche F, on comprend que, sous l'effet de la force du ressort 15, le petit axe 31 descendra le long de la rampe 30 de sorte que le clapet 11 obturera l'orifice 6, étant entendu que la base 27 de la pièce en forme de U 26 suivra la paroi 3 du réservoir 2 dans sa déformation. Dès lors, l'appareil sera prêt pour une nouvelle délivrance et/ou application de produit.By releasing the pressure along arrow F, it is understood that, under the effect of the force of the spring 15, the minor axis 31 will descend along the ramp 30 so that the valve 11 will close the orifice 6, it being understood that the base 27 of the U-shaped part 26 will follow the wall 3 of the reservoir 2 in its deformation. From then on, the device will be ready for a new delivery and / or application of the product.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given only by way of example.
C'est ainsi que la matière constituant le corps de l'appareil peut être de composition appropriée quelconque telle que polyéthylène de même que celle constituant les divers organes du mécanisme de commande à l'intérieur du réservoir, étant entendu qu'à cet égard, une matière synthétique sera préférée. De même, la con iguration de la pièce en forme de secteur pourra être quelconque et appropriée notamment en fonction de la iscosité du produit contenu dans le réservoir. Cette pièce pourra également avoir une forme appropriée quelconque au niveau de sa partie qui sera en contact avec la paroi interne du réservoir lorsqu'on exerce une pression sur l'extérieur de ce réservoir pour délivrer du produit.Thus the material constituting the body of the device can be of any suitable composition such as polyethylene as well as that constituting the various organs of the control mechanism inside the tank, it being understood that in this regard, a synthetic material will be preferred. Similarly, the configuration of the part in the form of a sector could be any and appropriate, in particular depending on the iscosity of the product contained in the tank. This part may also have any suitable shape at the level of its part which will be in contact with the internal wall of the reservoir when pressure is exerted on the exterior of this reservoir to deliver product.
On précisera encore ici que, dans certains modes de réalisation tels que ceux représentés aux figures 3, 4 et 5, l'extrémité d'application constituée par le pinceau, la mèche ou analogue peut pénétrer à l'intérieur de la tête 5 lors de la rétraction de la tige 10. Ceci présente l'avantage de favoriser l'imprégnation de l'extrémité d'application par le produit. Par ailleurs, on observera encore que le dispositif selon cette invention est particulièrement approprié à la délivrance de liquides visqueux, tels que par exemple du vernis à ongle. A cet égard, on pourra utiliser comme matière constituant la paroi déformable et élastique du corps 1, un matériau plastique composite tel que celui connu sous la dénomination commerciale "SELAR RB" disponible chez AUTEX ERKE, BONN (RFA) et qui est compatible avec les solvants utilisés dans la formule du vernis à ongle et qui est également imperméable aux vapeurs de ces solvants.It will also be specified here that, in certain embodiments such as those represented in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, the application end constituted by the brush, the wick or the like can penetrate inside the head 5 during the retraction of the rod 10. This has the advantage of promoting the impregnation of the application end by the product. Furthermore, it will also be observed that the device according to this invention is particularly suitable for the delivery of viscous liquids, such as for example nail varnish. In this regard, it is possible to use as material constituting the deformable and elastic wall of the body 1, a composite plastic material such as that known under the trade name "SELAR RB" available from AUTEX ERKE, BONN (RFA) and which is compatible with solvents used in the nail polish formula and which is also impermeable to the vapors of these solvents.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given only by way of example.
L'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci sont effectuées suivant son esprit. The invention includes all the technical equivalents of the means described and their combinations if these are carried out according to the spirit.
