Description
La présente invention est relative à une capsule de distribution pour un produit fluide ou visqueux, destinée à être montée sur le col d'un récipient contenant le produit.The present invention relates to a dispensing capsule for a fluid or viscous product, intended to be mounted on the neck of a container containing the product.
Plus précisément, l'invention est relative à une capsule généralement en matière plastique, du type comprenant une partie de base comportant une enveloppe définissant la paroi supérieure et la paroi latérale de la capsule, ladite partie de base étant munie de moyens de fixation sur le col du récipient et d'un passage de distribution dudit produit en communication avec l'intérieur du récipient, un capot mobile en forme de plaquette, pivotant autour d'un axe sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe du col du récipient entre une position de fermeture interdisant la distribution du produit et dans laquelle ledit capot mobile est disposé dans un évidement de la paroi supérieure de la partie de base de niveau avec celle-ci et une position d'ouverture autorisant la distribution dudit produit, et un poussoir d'actionnement comportant une languette mobile vers l'intérieur de ladite capsule depuis une position de repos dans laquelle ladite languette est disposée dans un évidement de la paroi latérale de la partie de base de niveau avec celle-ci, ledit capot mobile comprenant des surfaces de guidage en forme de rampes aptes à coopérer avec un prolongement vers l'intérieur de l'extrémité supérieure de ladite languette pour, lors du déplacement de la languette depuis sa position de repos, faire pivoter ledit capot depuis sa position de fermeture vers sa position d'ouverture.More specifically, the invention relates to a capsule generally made of plastic, of the type comprising a base part comprising an envelope defining the upper wall and the side wall of the capsule, said base part being provided with fixing means on the neck of the container and a distribution passage for said product in communication with the interior of the container, a movable cover in the form of a plate, pivoting about an axis substantially perpendicular to the axis of the neck of the container between a closed position prohibiting the distribution of the product and in which the said movable cover is disposed in a recess in the upper wall of the base part level with it and an open position authorizing the distribution of the said product, and an actuating pusher comprising a tongue movable towards the inside of said capsule from a rest position in which said tongue is disposed in a recess t of the side wall of the base part level with it, said movable cover comprising guide surfaces in the form of ramps capable of cooperating with an extension towards the inside of the upper end of said tongue for, during movement of the tongue from its rest position, pivot said cover from its closed position to its open position.
Une capsule présentant de telles caractéristiques est décrite dans EP-A-0 323 779 de la société déposante.A capsule having such characteristics is described in EP-A-0 323 779 from the applicant company.
Dans ce document, le prolongement vers l'intérieur de la languette du poussoir d'actionnement est réalisé sous la forme d'un bourrelet coopérant avec des rampes inclinées réalisées sur des extensions vers l'intérieur du capot mobile pour faire pivoter ce capot dans une position d'ouverture autorisant la distribution du produit contenu dans le récipient.In this document, the extension towards the inside of the tongue of the actuating pusher is produced in the form of a bead cooperating with inclined ramps produced on inward extensions of the movable cover to pivot this cover in a open position allowing the distribution of the product contained in the container.
Le capot comporte un conduit de distribution de produit en communication avec le récipient et la capsule du document antérieur est agencée pour assurer, lors de l'actionnement du poussoir, un mouvement de pivotement d'amplitude limitée du capot mobile, juste suffisant pour dégager l'extrémité libre du conduit de distribution prévu dans le capot.The cover comprises a product distribution duct in communication with the container and the capsule of the prior document is arranged to ensure, when the push-button is actuated, a pivoting movement of limited amplitude of the movable cover, just sufficient to release the free end of the distribution duct provided in the cover.
La présente invention se propose de réaliser une capsule de distribution du type défini ci-dessus qui, tout en étant d'une construction simple et économique, pouvant notamment être réalisée d'un seul tenant par moulage de matière plastique, permet par simple appui sur le poussoir d'obtenir une ouverture complète du capot mobile, c'est-à-dire jusqu'à une position dans laquelle le capot mobile se trouve sensiblement à angle droit par rapport à sa position de fermeture.The present invention proposes to produce a dispensing capsule of the type defined above which, while being of a simple and economical construction, which can in particular be produced in one piece by molding of plastic material, allows by simple pressing on the pusher to obtain a complete opening of the movable cover, that is to say to a position in which the movable cover is substantially at right angles to its closed position.
La capsule selon l'invention se caractérise essentiellement par le fait que les prolongements vers l'intérieur de l'extrémité supérieure de la languette du poussoir d'actionnement sont constitués par des branches aplaties sensiblement perpendiculaires à la languette, dont les extrémités libres sont biseautées, que le capot mobile comporte des flasques latéraux en déport vers l'intérieur s'étendant depuis l'axe de pivotement dudit capot mobile, lesdits flasques comportant à leurs extrémités opposées à l'axe de pivotement des surfaces de guidage inclinées, ayant de préférence un profil de came excentrique, aptes à coopérer avec les extrémités des branches du poussoir pour, lors du déplacement desdites branches sous l'effet d'un appui sur la languette, provoquer un premier mouvement de pivotement d'ouverture du capot, et que la partie de base comporte, dans le trajet de déplacement desdites branches, des portées en saillie en forme de rampes aptes à dévier vers le haut les extrémités desdites branches lors de la poursuite du déplacement de celles-ci, pour, en coopération avec lesdits flasques du capot mobile, provoquer la poursuite du mouvement de pivotement d'ouverture du capot jusqu'à une position d'ouverture complète, de préférence au moins sensiblement à angle droit par rapport à la position de fermeture.The capsule according to the invention is essentially characterized by the fact that the inward extensions of the upper end of the tongue of the actuating pusher consist of flattened branches substantially perpendicular to the tongue, the free ends of which are bevelled , that the movable cover has lateral flanges offset inwardly extending from the pivot axis of said movable cover, said flanges having at their ends opposite to the pivot axis inclined guide surfaces, preferably having an eccentric cam profile, able to cooperate with the ends of the branches of the pusher so that, during the displacement of said branches under the effect of pressing on the tongue, cause a first pivoting movement of opening of the cover, and that the base part comprises, in the path of movement of said branches, projecting bearing surfaces in the form of ramps capable of deflecting v ers the ends of said branches when moving them further, in order to, in cooperation with said flanges of the movable cover, cause the pivoting movement of opening of the cover to continue to a fully open position , preferably at least substantially at right angles to the closed position.
Dans un mode de mise en oeuvre préféré, les portées en saillie de la partie de base sont décalées par rapport aux flasques du capot mobile, les branches du poussoir présentant une largeur suffisante pour venir en appui sur lesdites portées et lesdits flasques pour provoquer l'ouverture du capot comme indiqué ci-dessus.In a preferred embodiment, the projecting spans of the base part are offset with respect to the flanges of the movable cover, the arms of the pusher having a width sufficient to come to bear on said spans and said flanges to cause the hood opening as shown above.
Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, le capot mobile comporte des moyens de verrouillage sur la partie de base en position de fermeture, lesdits moyens de verrouillage étant agencés pour être libérés lors du premier mouvement de pivotement d'ouverture du capot mentionné ci-dessus.In a particular embodiment, the movable cover comprises locking means on the base part in the closed position, said locking means being arranged to be released during the first pivoting movement of opening of the cover mentioned above.
Les moyens de verrouillage sont avantageusement du type à encliquetage et réalisés sur des portées en regard d'un ajutage de distribution de produit en saillie de la partie de base et d'un élément d'obturation de cet ajutage prévu sur la face inférieure du capot mobile.The locking means are advantageously of the snap-on type and produced on bearing surfaces facing a nozzle of distribution of product projecting from the base part and from a closure element for this nozzle provided on the underside of the movable cover.
Il est de préférence prévu selon l'invention sur la partie de base des moyens de retenue et de guidage des branches du poussoir d'actionnement.It is preferably provided according to the invention on the base part of the means for retaining and guiding the branches of the actuating plunger.
Ces moyens de retenue et de guidage sont par exemple réalisés sous la forme de bossages prévus sur la face intérieure de la partie de paroi latérale de l'enveloppe de la partie de base.These retaining and guiding means are for example produced in the form of bosses provided on the inner face of the side wall part of the casing of the base part.
Dans un premier mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le capot mobile est articulé sur un capot fixe immobilisé sur la partie de base, l'articulation étant de préférence sous la forme d'une charnière-film.In a first embodiment of the invention, the movable cover is articulated on a fixed cover immobilized on the base part, the articulation preferably being in the form of a film hinge.
Dans un second mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le capot mobile est articulé directement sur la partie de base, de préférence également par une charnière-film.In a second embodiment of the invention, the movable cover is articulated directly on the base part, preferably also by a film hinge.
Le poussoir d'actionnement est avantageusement également articulé sur la partie de base au niveau de l'extrémité inférieure de la languette, de préférence par une charnière-film.The actuating pusher is advantageously also articulated on the base part at the level of the lower end of the tongue, preferably by a film hinge.
Ainsi, l'on peut réaliser d'un seul tenant par moulage en matière plastique la partie de base, l'organe d'actionnement, le capot mobile et, lorsqu'il est prévu, le capot fixe.Thus, the base part, the actuating member, the movable cover and, when provided, the fixed cover can be made in one piece by plastic molding.
L'orifice de distribution de produit dans la capsule peut être un ajutage réalisé en saillie de la partie de base. Selon l'invention, grâce au mouvement complet de pivotement du capot mobile, cet ajutage se trouve complètement dégagé en vue de la distribution du produit.The product dispensing orifice in the capsule can be a nozzle projecting from the base part. According to the invention, thanks to the complete pivoting movement of the movable cover, this nozzle is completely cleared for the distribution of the product.
Dans une variante de réalisation et de la même manière que dans le document EP-A-0 323 779, il peut être prévu dans le capot mobile un conduit de distribution de produit débouchant au voisinage de l'extrémité du capot mobile opposée à l'axe d'articulation et en communication avec le passage de distribution de produit de la partie de base.In an alternative embodiment and in the same manner as in document EP-A-0 323 779, there may be provided in the movable cover a product distribution duct opening out in the vicinity of the end of the movable cover opposite to the hinge pin and in communication with the product distribution passage of the base part.
Dans ce cas, il est avantageusement prévu selon l'invention que cette communication s'effectue au niveau de l'articulation du capot mobile sur la partie de base.In this case, it is advantageously provided according to the invention that this communication takes place at the articulation of the movable cover on the base part.
Pour faciliter cette réalisation, le capot mobile peut être réalisé sous forme de pièce séparée, assemblée à l'ensemble unitaire constitué de la partie de base et du poussoir d'actionnement.To facilitate this realization, the movable cover can be made in the form of a separate part, assembled to the unitary assembly consisting of the base part and the actuating pusher.
L'invention a également pour objet un récipient sur le col duquel est montée une capsule telle que définie précédemment.The invention also relates to a container on the neck of which is mounted a capsule as defined above.
Dans les différents modes de réalisation de l'invention, la partie de base comporte de préférence une portée limitant le mouvement d'enfoncement de la languette du poussoir d'actionnement.In the various embodiments of the invention, the base part preferably has a bearing limiting the driving-in movement of the tongue of the actuating plunger.

On a représenté de façon très générale aux figures 1 et 2, un récipient muni d'une capsule selon le premier mode de réalisation de l'invention illustré aux figures 3 à 8.There is shown very generally in FIGS. 1 and 2, a container provided with a capsule according to the first embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 3 to 8.
On se réfère donc tout d'abord aux figures 1 à 8.We therefore refer first to Figures 1 to 8.
Le récipient 1 comporte à sa partie supérieure un col (non visible sur le dessin) muni d'un goulot sur lequel vient se monter la capsule selon l'invention désignée globalement par 2.The
A cet effet, la capsule comporte un ensemble de deux jupes concentriques 3, 4, la jupe extérieure 3, munie d'un pas de vis intérieur s'engageant autour du goulot qui est muni d'un pas de vis complémentaire, et la jupe 4, intérieure, constituant une portée d'étanchéité à l'intérieur du goulot.For this purpose, the capsule comprises a set of two concentric skirts 3, 4, the outer skirt 3, provided with an internal screw pitch engaging around the neck which is provided with a complementary screw pitch, and the skirt 4, interior, constituting a sealing surface inside the neck.
La capsule comporte une enveloppe extérieure définissant une paroi latérale 5 et une paroi supérieure 6.The capsule comprises an outer envelope defining a
Les parois 5 et 6 comportent des évidements dans lesquels sont disposés un poussoir d'actionnement désigné globalement par 7 et un capot de fermeture désigné globalement par 8.The
Comme on le voit sur la figure 1, en position de fermeture, le poussoir 7 et le capot 8 sont disposés de manière à prolonger respectivement les parois 5 et 6 de la capsule, sensiblement sans solution de continuité.As can be seen in FIG. 1, in the closed position, the
Le poussoir d'actionnement 7 comporte une paroi en forme de languette 9 prolongée à son extrémité supérieure en position de montage par une plaquette sensiblement en forme de U présentant deux branches aplaties 10 présentant chacune une extrémité 11 biseautée définissant une face terminale inclinée en forme de rampe.The actuating
Le poussoir 7 est articulé au niveau de l'extrémité opposée de la languette 9 par une charnière-film 12 à la partie de base désignée globalement par 13 de la capsule, cette partie de base 13 comportant d'un seul tenant les flasques 3 et 4 de montage sur le col du récipient ainsi que l'enveloppe définissant les parois intérieures 5 et 6.The
Le corps de base, dans ce mode de réalisation, comporte pour le passage du produit un ajutage 14 en saillie vers le haut muni sur sa paroi extérieure d'une gorge d'encliquetage 15 dans laquelle peut s'engager un bourrelet d'encliquetage 16 d'une jupe extérieure 17 d'un élément d'obturation 18 réalisé sur le capot et qui comporte une jupe intérieure 19 destinée à pénétrer dans l'ajutage 14 pour fermer celui-ci en position de fermeture du capot.The base body, in this embodiment, comprises for the passage of the product a
Dans l'exemple illustré, le capot comporte deux parties l'une désignée par 20, l'autre désignée par 21 reliées par une charnière-film 22, la partie 21 étant par ailleurs reliée au corps de base 13 par une charnière-film 23.In the example illustrated, the cover has two parts, one designated by 20, the other designated by 21 connected by a
Le corps de base 13 comporte des bossages 24 aptes à retenir l'élément de capot 21 lorsque le capot 8 est rabattu autour de la charnière-film 23 dans la position d'utilisation, de la figure 3 à la figure 4.The
Ainsi, dans la position d'utilisation illustrée à la figure 4, l'élément de capot 21 est immobilisé par rapport au corps de base et constitue un capot fixe, tandis que l'élément de capot 20 est susceptible de pivoter autour de la charnière-film 22 par rapport à l'élément de capot 21 et constitue donc un capot mobile.Thus, in the position of use illustrated in FIG. 4, the
Ce capot mobile 20 comporte deux flasques latéraux 25 s'étendant chacun depuis la zone de la charnière-film d'articulation 22 en direction de l'extrémité libre du capot mobile 20, chacun des flasques comportant dans sa partie d'extrémité en direction de l'extrémité libre du capot mobile une portée de guidage inclinée 26, de préférence en forme de came excentrique.This
La capsule selon l'invention comporte sur la partie de base 13 des saillies en forme de rampes 27 décalées vers l'intérieur par rapport aux flasques 25 du capot mobile 20 et aptes à coopérer avec les branches 10 du poussoir 7 lors de l'enfoncement de celui-ci comme cela va être expliqué ci-après.The capsule according to the invention comprises on the
Comme on le voit sur la figure 3, l'ensemble de la capsule selon l'invention peut être réalisé d'un seul tenant, de préférence par moulage de matière plastique.As seen in Figure 3, the entire capsule according to the invention can be made in one piece, preferably by plastic molding.
Pour passer de la position déployée de fabrication de la figure 3, à la position fermée d'utilisation de la figure 4, il suffit de rabattre respectivement autour des charnières-films 12 et 23 le poussoir d'actionnement 7 et l'ensemble du capot 8.To pass from the deployed manufacturing position of FIG. 3, to the closed position of use of FIG. 4, it suffices to fold the actuating
Pour la retenue et le guidage des branches 10 du poussoir sur la partie de base, il est prévu des bossages 28 réalisés sur la paroi intérieure de l'enveloppe de la partie de base.For retaining and guiding the
Enfin, la partie de base comporte une paroi inclinée 29 réalisée en regard de la languette 9 du poussoir 7 et constituant une portée limitant l'enfoncement du poussoir.Finally, the base part comprises an
L'ouverture de la capsule selon l'invention s'effectue comme illustré aux figures 6 à 8 par appui sur la languette 9 du poussoir 7 en tenant le récipient d'une main comme illustré à la figure 2.The capsule according to the invention is opened as illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 8 by pressing on the
Dans un premier temps, comme illustré à la figure 7, les parties d'extrémité inclinées 11 des branches 10 du poussoir viennent en appui sur les portées profilées 26 des flasques 25 du capot mobile 20, provoquant un pivotement du capot 20 autour de l'axe d'articulation constitué par la charnière-film 22 par rapport au capot fixe 21. Ce premier mouvement provoque un dégagement du bourrelet de verrouillage 16 de l'élément d'obturation 18 d'avec la gorge correspondante 15 de la paroi extérieure de l'ajutage 14. La poursuite de l'appui sur la languette du poussoir amène les branches à se soulever vers le haut le long des faces supérieures des portées en saillie 27 de la partie de base, et en appui sur les flasques 25 du capot mobile 20 à provoquer le soulèvement de celui-ci jusqu'à une position complète d'ouverture illustrée à la figure 8.Initially, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the
L'ajutage 14 est ainsi bien dégagé pour la distribution du produit.The
Le mode de réalisation des figures 9 et 10 diffère essentiellement de celui des figures précédentes par le fait que le capot 30 est d'un seul tenant et est articulé sur la partie de base, de préférence par une charnière-film 31 au voisinage du bord périphérique de la capsule, le capot comportant, comme dans le mode de réalisation précédent, des flasques latéraux 32 s'étendant depuis l'axe d'articulation 31 et présentant des portées de guidage en forme de cames profilées 33.The embodiment of Figures 9 and 10 differs essentially from that of the previous figures in that the
Dans ce mode de réalisation, les branches 10a du poussoir d'actionnement 7a sont plus longues de manière à coopérer par leurs extrémités avec les flasques 32 du capot 30.In this embodiment, the
Comme dans le mode de réalisation précédent, et bien que cela ne soit pas visible sur le dessin, la partie de base comporte des portées en saillie en forme de rampes analogues aux portées 27 du mode de réalisation précédent, de sorte que le fonctionnement de ce mode de réalisation en ce qui concerne le pivotement du capot 30 est le même que dans le mode de réalisation précédent en ce qui concerne le pivotement du capot mobile 20.As in the previous embodiment, and although this is not visible in the drawing, the base part has projecting spans in the form of ramps similar to the
Dans ce second mode de réalisation, les moyens de verrouillage du capot sur la partie de base sont quelque peu différents mais également libérés lors du début du mouvement de pivotement vers le haut du capot 30.In this second embodiment, the means for locking the cover on the base part are somewhat different but also released when the pivoting movement of the
Dans ce mode de réalisation, l'élément annulaire d'obturation 19a comporte un bourrelet extérieur annulaire 16a qui, en position fermée vient s'encliqueter derrière la surface de base de l'ajutage 14a en passant de la position fermée de la figure 9 à la position partiellement ouverte de la figure 10.In this embodiment, the annular closure element 19a comprises an annular
La poursuite du mouvement de pivotement du capot vers sa position totalement ouverte s'effectue de la même manière que dans le premier mode de réalisation.The continued pivoting movement of the cover towards its fully open position is carried out in the same manner as in the first embodiment.
Le troisième mode de réalisation de l'invention illustré aux figures 11 à 12 diffère essentiellement des modes de réalisation précédents par le fait que le capot mobile 40, qui peut être réalisé sous forme de pièce séparée, comporte un conduit de distribution de produit 41 débouchant à son extrémité libre.The third embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 11 to 12 differs essentially from the previous embodiments in that the
Le capot comporte des flasques de guidage 42 munis d'extrémités profilées.The cover includes
Les flasques 42 s'étendent depuis l'axe d'articulation 44 qui, dans ce mode de réalisation est constitué par un arbre tourillonné dans des paliers ménagés dans la partie de base de la capsule.The
Dans ce mode de réalisation, il est prévu au niveau de l'axe d'articulation un passage 45 assurant la distribution du produit depuis l'intérieur du récipient vers le conduit de distribution 41.In this embodiment, a
On retrouve dans ce mode de réalisation, la même configuration de poussoir 7 que dans le premier mode de réalisation, le corps de base comportant également des portées en saillie en forme de rampes 27a.We find in this embodiment, the same configuration of
Le fonctionnement de ce mode de réalisation en ce qui concerne l'ouverture du capot est le même que ceux des modes de réalisation précédents.The operation of this embodiment with regard to opening the cover is the same as that of the preceding embodiments.
Dans ce qui précède et bien que l'on ait mentionné deux mouvements successifs d'avance des branches et de pivotement du capot mobile, il doit être clair que pour l'utilisateur, ces mouvements sont ressentis comme un mouvement continu lors de l'appui sur le poussoir.In the foregoing, and although two successive movements of advance of the branches and pivoting of the movable cover have been mentioned, it must be clear that for the user, these movements are felt as a continuous movement when pressed on the pusher.
Bien que l'invention ait été décrite en liaison avec des modes de réalisation particuliers, il est bien évident qu'elle n'y est nullement limitée et qu'on peut lui apporter différentes variantes et modifications sans pour autant sortir de son cadre.Although the invention has been described in connection with particular embodiments, it is obvious that it is in no way limited thereto and that it can be brought to it in different variants and modifications without going beyond its ambit.
