Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un ensemble de conditionnement d'un produit cosmétique selon le préambule de la revendication 1.The present invention relates to a set of packaging of a cosmetic product according to the preamble of claim 1.
US-A-1 851 462 décrit un ensemble de conditionnement de ce genre. Il n'est pas question, dans ce document, de conditionner un produit cosmétique sous forme fluide.US-A-1 851 462 describes a set of conditioning like that. There is no question in this document, to package a cosmetic product under fluid form.
Il est connu par US-A-4 706 693 de conditionner un produit cosmétique fluide, tel qu'une crème, en imprégnant une éponge, l'éponge étant constituée par une mousse synthétique flexible à cellules ouvertes dans laquelle les cellules situées à la surface extérieure sont partiellement fermées. Selon le brevet ci-dessus la mousse imprégnée de produit cosmétique sert d'applicateur. Avant emploi, les éponges sont emballées dans des enveloppes déchirables fabriquées à partir de feuilles de métal doublées de matière plastique et plusieurs éponges emballées peuvent être stockées dans un même pot ou une même boíte munie d'un couvercle. Dans ce type de conditionnement, les éponges ne peuvent contenir qu'une ou deux doses de produit.It is known from US-A-4,706,693 to condition a fluid cosmetic product, such as a cream, impregnating a sponge, the sponge being constituted by a flexible synthetic open cell foam in which cells located on the outer surface are partially closed. According to the above patent the foam impregnated with cosmetic product serves applicator. Before use, the sponges are packed in tearable envelopes made from metal sheets lined with plastic and multiple packed sponges can be stored in one same pot or the same box with a lid. In this type of packaging, sponges cannot contain one or two doses of product.
La présente invention concerne un ensemble de conditionnement d'un produit cosmétique sous forme fluide dans lequel un élément spongieux peut contenir un nombre relativement élevé de doses de produit cosmétique et, dans l'hypothèse où le produit cosmétique est un fond de teint, avoir un usage analogue à celui d'un "compact".The present invention relates to a set of packaging of a cosmetic product in fluid form in which a spongy element can contain a number relatively high doses of cosmetic product and, in the event that the cosmetic product is a base of complexion, have a use similar to that of a "compact".
La présente invention a pour objet un ensemble de conditionnement d'un produit cosmétique défini par la revendication 1. The subject of the present invention is a set of packaging of a cosmetic product defined by the claim 1.
Pour prélever le produit, l'utilisateur comprime l'élément spongieux avec la main ou avec un applicateur tel qu'une houppette. Sous l'effet de cette compression une dose de produit fluide est exprimée de l'élément spongieux, la dose de produit fluide exprimée étant plus ou moins grande selon le degré de compression. Lorsque l'utilisateur cesse de comprimer l'élément spongieux, celui-ci reprend sa forme par élasticité. Selon l'invention, l'utilisateur peut donc régler la dose de produit prélevé en comprimant plus ou moins l'élément spongieux ou en comprimant l'élément spongieux plusieurs fois de suite.To collect the product, the user compresses the sponge element by hand or with an applicator such as a puff. Under the effect of this compression a dose of fluid is expressed from the element spongy, the dose of fluid expressed being more or less depending on the degree of compression. When the user stops compressing the spongy element, it regains its shape by elasticity. According to the invention, the user can therefore adjust the dose of product removed by more or less compressing the element spongy or compressing the spongy element several times in a row.
Le produit cosmétique, dont on imprègne l'élément spongieux, doit être fluide, c'est-à-dire sous toute forme permettant une imprégnation : sous forme liquide, sous forme de lotion, sous forme de crème ou sous forme de poudre libre. Le mode de fonctionnement de la présente invention est particulièrement avantageux dans le cas des produits cosmétiques liquides ; ces derniers sont facilement manipulables sous cette forme, car ils ne peuvent pas être renversés et répandus.The cosmetic product, of which the element is impregnated spongy, must be fluid, i.e. under all form allowing impregnation: in liquid form, as a lotion, as a cream or as loose powder. The mode of operation of this invention is particularly advantageous in the case of liquid cosmetic products; these last are easily manipulated in this form because they don't cannot be spilled and spread.
Le produit cosmétique conditionné peut être, par exemple, un fond de teint, un fard à paupières, un "blush", une crème ou une lotion de soin de la peau ou une poudre de maquillage.The packaged cosmetic product can be, for example example, a foundation, an eyeshadow, a "blush", a skin care cream or lotion or a makeup powder.
L'élément spongieux est, de préférence, constitué par une mousse synthétique flexible à cellules ouvertes : il peut être constitué par une mousse de polyuréthane, de chlorure de polyvinyle, de polyéthylène, de résine époxy, ou de polystyrène. La mousse peut être moulée ou découpée à la forme désirée.The spongy element is preferably made up by a flexible synthetic foam with open cells: it can be made of polyurethane foam, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, epoxy resin, or polystyrene. Foam can be molded or cut to the desired shape.
La quantité de produit cosmétique imprégnée dans l'élément spongieux varie suivant la mousse utilisée et la viscosité du produit cosmétique ; elle peut atteindre jusqu'à 80 % du volume de l'élément spongieux.The amount of cosmetic product impregnated in the spongy element varies according to the foam used and the viscosity of the cosmetic product; she can reach up to 80% of the volume of the spongy element.
Avantageusement, l'élément spongieux est imprégné en mettant le produit au fond d'un logement, en faisant descendre l'élément spongieux sur le produit dans le logement, en comprimant l'élément spongieux à l'intérieur du produit, puis en relâchant la pression, ce qui provoque l'aspiration du produit dans les cellules de l'élément spongieux.Advantageously, the spongy element is impregnated by putting the product at the bottom of a housing, making lower the sponge element onto the product in the housing, compressing the sponge element inside of the product, then releasing the pressure, which causes aspiration of the product in the cells of the spongy element.
L'élément spongieux est, de préférence, imprégné avant introduction dans l'ensemble de conditionnement.The spongy element is preferably impregnated before introduction into the packaging unit.
La grille est fabriquée en tout matériau suffisamment flexible pour pouvoir se déformer et s'enfoncer avec l'élément spongieux lorsqu'on appuie sur celui-ci, et reprendre ensuite sa forme initiale sous la poussée de l'élément spongieux, lorsque l'utilisateur cesse d'appuyer. La grille est, avantageusement, fabriquée en polyéthylène ou en polyamide. Elle est, de préférence, constituée par un tissu tramé. The grid is made of any material flexible enough to be able to deform and sink with the sponge element when you press this one, and then return to its original form under the thrust of the spongy element, when the user stop pressing. The grid is, advantageously, made of polyethylene or polyamide. She is from preferably made up of a woven fabric.
L'élément spongieux et sa grille peuvent être disposés de façon fixe dans le réceptacle du boítier ou ils peuvent être disposés de façon amovible, le cadre maintenant l'élément spongieux et la grille étant conçu de façon à être facilement montable et démontable afin d'obtenir un ensemble rechargeable , la recharge pouvant être constituée par un cadre , un fond, un élément spongieux et une grille.The spongy element and its grid can be fixedly arranged in the receptacle of the housing or they can be removably arranged, the frame now the sponge element and the grid being designed so as to be easily mountable and removable in order to obtain a rechargeable assembly, the refill can consist of a frame, a background, a spongy element and a grid.
Selon un mode préféré de réalisation de l'ensemble de conditionnement selon la présente invention, l'élément spongieux repose sur la base du réceptacle du boítier ; une cloison ayant, en projection sur ladite base, au moins partiellement la forme de l'élément spongieux est disposée perpendiculairement à ladite base du réceptacle et forme le logement de l'élément spongieux ; le cadre comprimant l'élément spongieux comporte une collerette parallèle à la base du réceptacle du boítier qui repose sur le bord de ladite cloison, la collerette étant reliée par son bord interne à une jupe inclinée vers l'intérieur du boítier, dont le bord libre appuie sur l'élément spongieux et le comprime au voisinage de sa périphérie. Le bord externe de la collerette est, selon une première variante, relié à une seconde jupe perpendiculaire à la base du réceptacle, jupe qui se fixe par encliquetage sur la surface externe de la cloison ; cette seconde jupe peut avantageusement constituer la paroi latérale du réceptacle du boítier. Selon une seconde variante, le bord externe de la collerette se fixe par un système rainure-nervure sur la face interne de la paroi latérale du réceptacle du boítier.According to a preferred embodiment of the packaging assembly according to the present invention, the spongy element rests on the base of the housing receptacle; a partition having, in projection on said basis, at least partially the shape of the spongy element is arranged perpendicularly at said base of the receptacle and forms the housing the spongy element; the compressing frame the sponge element has a parallel flange at the base of the housing receptacle which rests on the edge of said partition, the flange being connected by its internal edge to a skirt inclined inwards of the case, the free edge of which presses on the element spongy and compresses it in the vicinity of its periphery. The outer edge of the collar is, according to a first variant, connected to a second skirt perpendicular to the base of the receptacle, skirt which is fixed by snap-fastening on the external surface of the partition; this second skirt can advantageously constitute the side wall of the receptacle of the housing. According to a second variant, the outer edge of the collar is fixed by a groove-rib system on the inner face of the side wall of the receptacle of the housing.
Le boítier de l'ensemble de conditionnement selon la présente invention peut être divisé en plusieurs compartiments, chacun de ces compartiments contenant un élément spongieux imprégné d'un produit cosmétique différent ; ces différents produits cosmétiques sont par exemple, des fards à paupières de couleurs différentes. De façon avantageuse, l'un des compartiments contient une houppette destinée à prélever le produit cosmétique et à l'appliquer. La houppette peut être, en particulier, constituée par une mousse synthétique flexible à cellules fermées.The packaging unit housing according to the present invention can be divided into several compartments, each of these compartments containing a spongy element impregnated with a product different cosmetics; these different products cosmetics are for example, eyeshadows from different colors. Advantageously, one of the compartments contains a puff for take the cosmetic product and apply it. The puff can be, in particular, constituted by a flexible closed cell synthetic foam.
