Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a housing formed by two parts articulated along a hinge, one of the parts constituting the cover and the other the bottom of the housing, usable in particular for makeup products.
  • the closure system comprises a hook fixed on the edge of the cover which cooperates with an opening secured to the bottom of the housing, but the reverse is possible.
  • the opening of the closure system is generally provided in a drawer capable of sliding between guides, or in a channel, in the bottom of the housing, by manual action on an actuating means carried by the drawer and accessible. from the outside, elastic return means cooperating with the drawer and with a bearing surface provided in the bottom of the housing to allow the drawer to return to its rest position, and latching means cooperating with means of stop integral with the bottom of the housing to retain the drawer relative to the bottom of the housing.
  • the bottom of the housing can, in known manner, consist of a single hollow part providing an internal space; it is preferably made up of two parts: a plate and a base which fit together and provide between them the internal space.
  • a housing comprising a drawer having a general U-shape in which the elastic return means consist of two branches each formed in the extension of one of the two wings of the U-shaped body and the latching means are lateral notches projecting laterally on the wings of the U-shaped body at the start of these branches and cooperating with stops situated on the edges of the housing.
  • the sliding channel of the drawer is short and wide.
  • the shape of the channel does not always allow the play coming from the molding to be taken up. The operation is therefore not pleasant for the user because the drawer risks catching or rubbing during its sliding movement.
  • the elastic means arranged on the wings of the U-shaped drawer do not allow a sufficient stroke of the drawer and it can sometimes be difficult to open the housing.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by using, in the closure system, a drawer of such shape that it is capable of sliding in a relatively long and narrow channel, which ensures better guidance of the drawer and allows to make up for the play due to the molding of the drawer, and by using, as elastic return means, legs curved towards one another in "half-round", the flexion of which allows a greater stroke of the drawer and ensures, by Consequently, greater ease of opening the case.
  • the present invention therefore relates to a housing formed by two parts articulated along a hinge, one of the parts constituting the cover and the other the bottom of the housing and comprising a closure system comprising worn elements, on the one hand, by the cover, and on the other hand, by the bottom of the case, the element carried by the bottom of the case being a drawer capable of sliding in a channel disposed in the bottom of the case, the drawer comprising a means of actuation accessible from outside the housing, elastic return means coming to bear on a surface integral with the bottom of the housing and latching means capable of cooperating with stop means integral with the bottom of the housing, characterized by the fact that the drawer has the general shape of a T, the transverse bar of the T constituting the actuation means accessible from the outside and the end of the main bar of the T extending in said channel and do nt the opposite end to the actuating means carries two elastic tabs curved towards each other symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the T-drawer.
  • the latching means are preferably constituted by two projections carried by elastic tabs, perpendicular to the mean plane of the T-shaped drawer, located at each end of the transverse branch of the T.
  • the projections cooperate with notches located on partitions from the bottom of the housing perpendicular to the mean plane of said bottom.
  • the elastic tabs have a shape such that, when the user presses on the crossbar of the T-shaped drawer, their radius of curvature decreases by bending and that their end moves on the bearing surface arranged on the bottom of the case perpendicular to the mean plane of the latter.
  • the legs preferably have a greater width in the vicinity of the end of the main bar of the T, than in the vicinity of their end, so that the bending of the legs takes place essentially in the vicinity of their end.
  • their section is gradually decreasing.
  • the elastic tabs carry at their end a reinforcing zone of circular section, of cylindrical shape, which facilitates the displacement of the end of the tabs on the bearing surface during their bending: in fact, the contact of the legs on the bearing surface is a cylinder generator and the movement of the legs on the bearing surface is not hampered by excessive friction.
  • the sides of the main bar of the T are preferably provided with guide elements, preferably pins, which, in addition, facilitate the movement of the drawer in the channel.
  • These guide elements can be provided with a recess allowing them to be given a certain elasticity and to make up for any play in the drawer during their movement.
  • the cover carries a hook and a rectangular opening bearing on its edge, facing the main bar, a projection forming a counter-hook is formed in the transverse bar of the drawer.
  • the make-up case is designated as a whole by the reference 1. It is constituted by a cover 2 mounted in rotation on the bottom 3 of the case along a hinge 4.
  • the bottom 3 of the housing in the embodiment shown, consists of a plate 5 and a base 6 which fit into one another and secured for example by clipping.
  • a drawer 7 slides in the space provided between the plate 5 and the base 6 after assembly by fitting.
  • a mirror 8 is fixed inside the cover 2.
  • a hook made up of two plates 9 a , 9 b , rectangular at right angles, the plate 9 a fixed to the edge of the cover 2 being perpendicular to the mean plane of this cover and the plate 9b being parallel to this mean plane and projecting towards the inside of the cover.
  • the compartments 10 are intended to contain bars of make-up product and the compartment 11, which is shallower, partially divided in two by a central rib 10 a , is intended to store two brushes or other applicators.
  • the side of the plate 5 opposite the hinge 4 is notched at 12 to allow the insertion of the T-shaped drawer 7.
  • the base 6 is constituted by a planar surface 15, rectangular, provided with side walls 16 planes perpendicular to the planar surface 15.
  • a notch 17 is formed in the side wall for housing the hinge 4 of the plate 5.
  • a perpendicular partition 18 which allows the hinge 4 to fit together.
  • the side wall 16 On the side of the base 6, opposite the hinge 4, the side wall 16 also has a front notch 19, each of the edges of which has a perpendicular return 20 provided with a notch 21.
  • the notch 19 is also bordered by the flat surface 15 of the base 6.
  • an imprint 22 successively comprising an enlarged rectangular area 22 a , one edge of which is formed by the edge of the notch 19, a part 22 b forming a channel for guiding the movement of the slide 7 and again an enlarged area 22 c closed by a bearing surface 22 d .
  • the drawer 7 has the general shape of a T comprising a transverse bar 23 and a perpendicular main bar 24 provided at its free end with two curved legs 25.
  • the transverse bar 23 is hollow, reinforcing partitions (not shown) ensuring its rigidity.
  • a rectangular opening 26 carrying on its edge located on the side of the main bar 24 a counter hook 27.
  • the main bar 24 of the drawer 7 is constituted by a rectangular plate having a smaller thickness than the transverse bar 23, and carrying on its longitudinal sides spikes 30 for guiding the bar 24 in the channel 22 b , four according to the embodiment shown .
  • the two legs 25, curved towards one another, are identical and arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the T. These legs are of constant thickness. They carry at their end a reinforcement zone 31 of circular section which has a cylindrical shape, the reinforcement zone 31 having the same thickness as the legs 25.
  • the legs 25 are wider at their junction with the main bar 24 of the drawer only at their junction with the reinforcement zone 31.
  • the transverse bar 23 is molded in open form on the base side and it is then covered with a case, in particular metallic, having in cross section the shape a U; one of U branches has a rectangular opening corresponding to opening 26.
  • the transverse bar 23 of the drawer 7 in T is arranged in the notch 19 of the base 6, a part of its lower face resting on the enlarged part 22 a of cavity while leaving, in this part 22 a , a clearance zone allowing the sliding of the drawer 7.
  • the main bar 24 is mainly located in the channel 22 b , the pins 30 being in contact with the edges of the cavity limiting channel 22 b .
  • the curved tabs 25 are arranged in the enlarged part 22 c and the reinforcement zone 31 disposed at their end comes into contact with the bearing surface 22 d .
  • the projections 29 placed on the flexible tongues 28 are disposed at the bottom of the notches 21 formed in the returns 20 so as to prevent the drawer from coming out under the action of the tabs 25.
  • the drawer 7 moves towards the inside of the bottom 3 of the housing 1, the hook 9 carried by the cover 2 emerges from the counter-hook 27 and the housing 1 opens.
  • the drawer 7 returns to its open position when the action on the bar 23 has ceased.
  • the hook 9 is introduced into the opening 26 until the hook 9 cooperates with the counter-hook 27.
  • the drawer 7 is guided in the channel 22 b over a fairly long length, the fact that the legs 25 are located at the end of the main bar 24 of the T-shaped drawer and the fact that the legs 25 have almost punctual contact with the support surface 22 d , the user has a pleasant impression of great flexibility when using the closure device.
