Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un boîtier de maquillage contenant de la poudre compactée, ce boîtier comprenant un fond, un couvercle articulé sur le fond et un fermoir pour maintenir le boîtier en position fermée.The present invention relates to a make-up case containing compacted powder, this case comprising a bottom, a cover hinged on the bottom and a clasp for holding the case in the closed position.

Sur un boîtier de ce type, connu par le brevet français N° 646 344, la poudre compactée est disposée dans un godet monté dans le fond du boîtier de manière à ne pas pouvoir tourner, et une grille est montée mobile en rotation sur le fond, au-dessus du godet sollicité contre la grille par un ressort. Le fond comporte par ailleurs un bouton rotatif pouvant être actionné de l'extérieur du boîtier pour faire tourner la grille et faire ainsi racler la surface de la poudre par la grille. Ce boîtier connu comporte en outre un fermoir actionné de l'extérieur par un poussoir. Il est donc nécessaire d'actionner le poussoir pour ouvrir la boîtier et ensuite le bouton rotatif pour faire tourner la grille avant de pouvoir prélever, par exemple à l'aide d'une houppe, la poudre raclée par la grille, par rotation dudit bouton. De plus, la structure de ce boîtier connu est relativement compliquée.On a casing of this type, known by French patent No. 646 344, the compacted powder is placed in a cup mounted in the bottom of the casing so as not to be able to rotate, and a grid is mounted rotatably movable on the bottom , above the bucket urged against the grid by a spring. The bottom also has a rotary button that can be operated from outside the housing to rotate the grid and thus scrape the surface of the powder by the grid. This known case also comprises a clasp actuated from the outside by a push-button. It is therefore necessary to actuate the pusher to open the case and then the rotary button to rotate the grid before being able to remove, for example using a tassel, the powder scraped by the grid, by rotation of said button . In addition, the structure of this known housing is relatively complicated.

La présente invention vise un boîtier de maquillage contenant de la poudre compactée, boîtier qui soit d'un maniement plus aisé et pratique tout en étant d'une structure plus simple que les boîtiers connus.The present invention relates to a make-up case containing compacted powder, a case which is easier to handle and practical while being of a simpler structure than known cases.

Le boîtier de maquillage conforme à l'invention, contenant de la poudre compactée, comprend un fond, un couvercle articulé sur le fond par un axe, un godet contenant la poudre monté dans le fond, une grille montée sur le fond, au-dessus du godet, un ressort agisssant sur le godet pour pousser la poudre contre la grille, un fermoir pour maintenir le boîtier fermé, et un bouton rotatif extérieur dont l'axe est monté dans le fond pour produire un mouvement de rotation relatif entre la poudre compactée et la grille et faire ainsi racler la surface de la poudre par la grille. Selon l'invention, le bouton rotatif comporte une partie formant came qui, lors de la rotation du bouton, exerce un effort dans le sens d'ouverture sur le couvercle, et le fermoir est un fermoir à effet de retenue limité s'ouvrant sous l'action de l'effort exercé sur le couvercle par la partie en forme de came du bouton lors de la rotation de ce dernier.The make-up box according to the invention, containing compacted powder, comprises a bottom, a cover articulated on the bottom by an axis, a cup containing the powder mounted in the bottom, a grid mounted on the bottom, above of the cup, a spring acting on the cup to push the powder against the grid, a clasp to keep the case closed, and an external rotary knob whose axis is mounted in the bottom to produce a relative rotational movement between the compacted powder and the grid and thus scrape the surface of the powder by the grid. According to the invention, the rotary button has a part forming a cam which, when the button is rotated, exerts a force in the direction of opening on the cover, and the clasp is a clasp with a limited retaining effect opening under effort action exerted on the cover by the cam-shaped part of the button during the rotation of the latter.

La manoeuvre du boîtier, en vue du prélèvement de poudre, se résume donc à une rotation du bouton, à la manière de la rotation d'un remontoir de montre, assurant à la fois l'ouverture du boîtier et le raclage de la surface de la poudre en vue de la distribution d'une quantité de poudre qui est fonction du nombre de tours de rotation du bouton.The operation of the case, with a view to removing the powder, therefore comes down to a rotation of the button, in the manner of the rotation of a watch winder, ensuring both the opening of the case and the scraping of the surface of the watch. the powder for the distribution of an amount of powder which is a function of the number of turns of the button.

Le bouton rotatif peut être avantageusement disposé à l'opposé de l'axe d'articulation du couvercle sur le fond.The rotary button can advantageously be arranged opposite the hinge axis of the cover on the bottom.

Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré, l'axe du bouton rotatif présente une partie elliptique à l'endroit du bord du couvercle et le couvercle présente ici une échancrure de forme semi-elliptique coopérant avec ladite partie elliptique de l'axe du bouton.According to a preferred embodiment, the axis of the rotary button has an elliptical part at the edge of the cover and the cover here has a notch of semi-elliptical shape cooperating with said elliptical part of the axis of the button.

Le fermoir pourrait être réalisé d'une seule pièce avec le couvercle ou avec le fond, mais suivant un mode de réalisation préféré, le fermoir est constitué par un fermoir rapporté monté dans le fond du couvercle de manière que sa base pénètre dans une gorge de l'axe du bouton, pour retenir ce dernier dans le fond.The clasp could be made in one piece with the cover or with the bottom, but according to a preferred embodiment, the clasp is constituted by an attached clasp mounted in the bottom of the cover so that its base enters a groove of the axis of the button, to retain the latter in the background.

Le boîtier conforme à l'invention peut avantageusement comprendre une plate-forme montée rotative dans le fond et portant le godet contenant la poudre, la plate-forme et l'axe du bouton présentant des dentures en prise l'une avec l'autre. Dans ce cas, la grille raclant la surface de la poudre est montée fixe sur le fond, au-dessus de la plate-forme.The housing according to the invention may advantageously comprise a platform mounted to rotate in the bottom and carrying the bucket containing the powder, the platform and the axis of the button having teeth engaged with one another. In this case, the grid scraping the surface of the powder is fixedly mounted on the bottom, above the platform.

Le godet contenant le poudre peut avantageusement comporter des oreilles extérieures montées coulissantes dans des rainures axiales intérieures de la plate-forme.The bucket containing the powder may advantageously include external ears mounted to slide in internal axial grooves of the platform.

Un ressort de préférence un ressort à lame, est intercalé entre le fond de la plate-forme et le godet, pour pousser la surface de la poudre contre la grille fixe.A spring, preferably a leaf spring, is interposed between the bottom of the platform and the bucket, to push the surface of the powder against the fixed grid.

En se référant aux dessins annexés, on va décrire ci-après plus en détail un mode de réalisation illustratif et non limitatif d'un boîtier de maquillage conforme à l'invention; sur les dessins :

  • la figure 2 est une coupe à plus grande échelle suivant II-II de la figure 1;
  • la figure 3 est une coupe à plus petite échelle suivant III-III de la figure 2;
  • la figure 4 est une vue de face, à plus grande échelle, du fermoir du boîtier conforme à l'invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, there will be described below in more detail an illustrative and non-limiting embodiment of a makeup case according to the invention; on the drawings:
  • Figure 1 is an external view of the housing according to the invention along the axis of the operating button;
  • Figure 2 is a section on a larger scale along II-II of Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 is a section on a smaller scale along III-III of Figure 2;
  • Figure 4 is a front view, on a larger scale, of the clasp of the housing according to the invention.

Le boîtier de maquillage tel qu'illustré par les dessins est un boîtier plat, de forme générale circulaire, comprenant essentiellement un fond 1 et un couvercle 2 articulé sur le fond 1 par un axe 3 horizontal.The make-up case as illustrated by the drawings is a flat case, of generally circular shape, essentially comprising a bottom 1 and a cover 2 articulated on the bottom 1 by a horizontal axis 3.

Le couvercle 2 porte intérieurement un miroir 4.The cover 2 internally carries a mirror 4.

Une plate-forme 5 circulaire est montée mobile en rotation autour d'un axe vertical non représenté dans le fond 1 du boîtier. La plate-forme 5 comprend un fond 6 plat et une paroi annulaire 7 munie intérieurement de rainures axiales 8 opposées. La plate-forme 5 présente par ailleurs une denture 9 extérieure dans la zone de raccordement de la paroi 7 au fond 6.A circular platform 5 is mounted movable in rotation about a vertical axis not shown in the bottom 1 of the housing. The platform 5 comprises a flat bottom 6 and an annular wall 7 provided internally with opposite axial grooves 8. The platform 5 also has external toothing 9 in the connection area of the wall 7 to the bottom 6.

Un godet 10 circulaire contenant de la poudre de maquillage 11 compactée est disposée sur la plate-forme 5, un ressort 12, de préférence un ressort à lame étant intercalé entre le fond 6 de la plate-forme 5 et le godet 10. Ce dernier comporte par ailleurs des oreilles extérieures 13 opposées engagées dans les rainures 8 de la paroi 7 de la plate-forme 5.A circular bucket 10 containing compacted makeup powder 11 is placed on the platform 5, a spring 12, preferably a leaf spring being interposed between the bottom 6 of the platform 5 and the bucket 10. The latter also comprises opposite outer lugs 13 engaged in the grooves 8 of the wall 7 of the platform 5.

Une grille 14 comportant des fentes 15 dans sa partie centrale est fixée au fond 1 du boîtier de manière à recouvrir la plate-forme 5 et à venir s'appuyer, par sa partie centrale bombée vers le bas munie de fentes 15, sur la surface de la poudre de maquillage 11 compactée contenue dans le godet 10.A grid 14 having slots 15 in its central part is fixed to the bottom 1 of the housing so as to cover the platform 5 and to come to rest, by its central curved downward part provided with slots 15, on the surface compacted makeup powder 11 contained in cup 10.

Un bouton 16 rotatif est monté dans le fond 1 du boîtier, à l'opposé de l'axe d'articulation 3, de telle manière que l'axe de rotation 17 horizontal du bouton 16 soit perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation de la plate-forme 5 et perpendiculaire à l'axe d'articulation 3 du couvercle 2. Le bouton 16 comporte une tête 18 circulaire, extérieure au boîtier, et un axe 19 qui pénètre dans le fond 2 muni d'un trou de passage de section circulaire. A son extrémité intérieure, l'axe 19 porte une denture 20 en prise avec la denture 9 de la plate-forme 5. L'axe 19 est retenu dans le fond 1 du boîtier par un fermoir 21 représenté plus en détail sur la figure 4. Ce fermoir 21 réalisé d'une seule pièce par exemple en matière plastique comprend une base d'ancrage 22 en U, par laquelle le fermoir est fixé dans un logement du fond 1 du boîtier, et une tête 23 reliée par deux branches de torsion 24 latérales à la base 22, ce qui permet à la tête 23 de pivoter avec effet de rappel élastique par rapport à la base 22. La tête 23 porte un nez 25 coopérant avec un mentonnet 26 prévu sur le couvercle 2 du boîtier.A rotary button 16 is mounted in the bottom 1 of the housing, opposite the hinge axis 3, so that the horizontal axis of rotation 17 of the button 16 is perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the platform 5 and perpendicular to the hinge axis 3 of the cover 2. The button 16 has a circular head 18, external to the housing, and an axis 19 which penetrates into the bottom 2 provided with a passage of circular section. At its inner end, the axis 19 carries a toothing 20 engaged with the toothing 9 of the platform 5. The axis 19 is retained in the bottom 1 of the housing by a clasp 21 shown in more detail in FIG. 4 This clasp 21 made in one piece for example of plastic material comprises an anchoring base 22 in a U, by which the clasp is fixed in a housing in the bottom 1 of the housing, and a head 23 connected by two torsion branches 24 lateral to the base 22, which allows the head 23 to pivot with elastic return effect relative to the base 22. The head 23 carries a nose 25 cooperating with a flange 26 provided on the cover 2 of the housing.

La base 22 du fermoir 21 pénètre dans une gorge 27 de l'axe 19 du bouton 16, ce qui assure l'immobilisation axiale du bouton 16 dans le fond 1 du boîtier.The base 22 of the clasp 21 enters a groove 27 of the axis 19 of the button 16, which ensures the axial immobilization of the button 16 in the bottom 1 of the housing.

L'axe 19 de forme générale cylindrique comporte, en dessous de la tête 18 du bouton 16, à l'extérieur du fond 1, à l'endroit du bord du couvercle 2, un tronçon elliptique 28 qui, comme le montre surtout la figure 3, coopère lors de la rotation du bouton 16, avec une échancrure 29 semi-elliptique correspondante du bord du couvercle, échancrure dont le grand axe est horizontal.The axis 19 of generally cylindrical shape comprises, below the head 18 of the button 16, outside the bottom 1, at the location of the edge of the cover 2, an elliptical section 28 which, as shown above in the figure 3, cooperates during the rotation of the button 16, with a corresponding semi-elliptical notch 29 of the edge of the cover, notch whose major axis is horizontal.

Ainsi, lorsque le bouton rotatif 16 occupe la position angulaire représentée en trait plein sur la figure 3, dans laquelle le grand axe du tronçon elliptique 28 du bouton 16 est horizontal, le couvercle 16 ne se trouve pas soulevé du fond 1, c'est-à-dire le boîtier est maintenu fermé par le fermoir 21. Au contraire, après une rotation de 90° du bouton 16, le tronçon elliptique 28 occupe la position visible en trait mixte sur la figure 3, dans laquelle son grand axe est vertical, c'est-à-dire perpendiculaire au grand axe de l'échancrure semi-elliptique 29 du couvercle 2, le couvercle 2 est écarté du fond 1, à l'encontre de l'action du fermoir 21, comme représenté en trait mixte sur la figure 3.Thus, when the rotary button 16 occupies the angular position shown in solid lines in FIG. 3, in which the major axis of the elliptical section 28 of the button 16 is horizontal, the cover 16 is not lifted from the bottom 1, it is ie the case is kept closed by the clasp 21. On the contrary, after a 90 ° rotation of the button 16, the elliptical section 28 occupies the position visible in phantom in Figure 3, in which its major axis is vertical , that is to say perpendicular to the major axis of the semi-elliptical notch 29 of the cover 2, the cover 2 is spaced from the bottom 1, against the action of the clasp 21, as shown in phantom in figure 3.

Le fonctionnement du boîtier de maquillage tel que décrit ci-dessus est le suivant.The operation of the makeup unit as described above is as follows.

Le boîtier étant fermé, c'est-à-dire le bouton 16 occupant la position représentée en trait plein sur la figure 3 et le couvercle 2 étant verrouillé sur le fond 1 par le fermoir 21, l'utilisatrice saisit le boîtier de la main gauche et tourne le bouton 16 entre le pouce et l'index de la main droite dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre, comme indiqué par une flèche 30 sur la figure 1. La rotation du tronçon elliptique 28 de l'axe 19 du bouton 16 a pour effet, pendant le premier quart de tour, d'écarter le couvercle 2 du fond 1 de manière que le fermoir 21 se dégage du mentonnet 26, de sorte que le couvercle 2 se trouve entrouvert. Cette rotation d'un quart de tour du bouton 16 entraîne une légère rotation de la plate-forme 5, donc également de la poudre 11 contenue dans le godet 10 en dessous de la grille 14.The case being closed, that is to say the button 16 occupying the position shown in solid lines in FIG. 3 and the cover 2 being locked on the bottom 1 by the clasp 21, the user grasps the case by hand left and turn button 16 between thumb and the index finger of the right hand clockwise, as indicated by an arrow 30 in FIG. 1. The rotation of the elliptical section 28 of the axis 19 of the button 16 has the effect, during the first quarter in turn, move aside the cover 2 from the bottom 1 so that the clasp 21 emerges from the stud 26, so that the cover 2 is ajar. This quarter-turn rotation of the button 16 causes a slight rotation of the platform 5, therefore also of the powder 11 contained in the cup 10 below the grid 14.

En continuant de tourner le bouton 16, par exemple de plusieurs tours, l'utilisatrice peut faire effectuer à la poudre 11 le mouvement de rotation requis pour racler une quantité suffisante de poudre 11 par la grille 14, cette poudre raclée pouvant être retirée sur le dessus de la grille 14 à l'aide d'une houppe logée par exemple dans le creux central de la grille 14.By continuing to turn the knob 16, for example by several turns, the user can cause the powder 11 to perform the rotational movement required to scrape a sufficient quantity of powder 11 through the grid 14, this scraped powder can be removed on the above the grid 14 using a tassel housed for example in the central hollow of the grid 14.

Il va de soi que le mode de réalisation décrit ci-dessus et illustré par le dessin annexé ne représente qu'un exemple illustratif et non limitatif et que de nombreuses modifications et variantes sont possibles dans le cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that the embodiment described above and illustrated by the appended drawing represents only an illustrative and nonlimiting example and that numerous modifications and variants are possible within the framework of the invention.

Il en est ainsi en particulier en ce que concerne la réalisation du fermoir 21, la disposition du bouton 16 et la conception des moyens d'entraînement en rotation de la poudre et d'application de la poudre contre la grille de raclage.This is particularly so as regards the production of the clasp 21, the arrangement of the button 16 and the design of the means for driving the powder in rotation and applying the powder against the scraper grid.
