Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of housings for cosmetic, make-up, hygiene or care, and more particularly to make-up boxes or powders (or compacts) used in the field of cosmetology by women for powdering or for example to color their cheekbones or eyelids, such housings constituting besides in certain cases of real jewelry items.
  • viscous fluid systems which can be in particular constituted by a silicone
  • it is a fluid
  • some specialists consider that the use in the present case of a viscous fluid causes implementation difficulties industrial, increases manufacturing costs and multiplies the manipulations that each box must undergo for its manufacture.
  • US-A-4,483,355 describes a housing provided with a cover which, when unlocked, is suddenly rotated by springs which relax.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a housing which does not not having the aforementioned potential drawbacks and allowing fine adjustment of the speed of opening the cover, whatever the frequency of handling it or the case and practically whatever its conditions usual use.
  • the invention further provides, for an even greater comfort of use and an optimum effect control of the opening of the cover, that said depreciation means will work for practically all, or at least most of the opening race of the cover, absorbing, until substantially cancel it at the end of the race, the energy communicated to the cover for opening by its control means associated.
  • the invention advises the use more particularly of a block synthetic foam, for example PVC or polyurethane impregnated, whose reliability and thermal stability are known, whose cost price is low and whose the ease of both form adaptation and implementation place, even replacement, is large, without risk no dirt from the other parts of the case.
  • a block synthetic foam for example PVC or polyurethane impregnated
  • the foam block will be placed near the lid hinge.
  • the box of the case can enclose a drawer which will be mounted there sliding under the control of the articulation movement in rotation of the cover, the drawer containing at least one of said damping means, advantageously such that said second spring, which will compress or relax in depending on the movement of the drawer, pressing against a fixed enclosure wall.
  • FIG. 1 first of all, we therefore see illustrated a casing 2 for powder and / or eyeshadows, mainly made of plastic, including a case 4 closed by a cover 6.
  • the cover essentially comprises a block parallelepiped 8 with a bottom 8a and four walls perimeter side 8b inside which comes fit a frame 10 retaining a mirror 12 and provided, on one side (at the front), with a hook or notch 14 of locking in the closed position of the cover and, on the side opposite (at the back), of a fallen wall extension defining a hinge zone 16, of transverse axis 18 with two lateral axial pins 20 adapted for rotate in bearings 22 of a part 24 linked to the cabinet for example by fixing screws 25.
  • This piece 24, which is a fixed part, has a general shape parallelepiped having the overall appearance of a frame coming to fit between the four side walls 26a of basic parallelepiped block 26 at the bottom 26b of the housing 4.
  • the box 26 has an opening 28 for engagement with through it pieces 30, 32 forming the pusher locking the hook 14 through the hole 34 of the frame 24, when the cover must be closed, or the unlocking of this same hook when the box must to be open.
  • a drawer 36 is mounted movable in translation towards the front or the back of the cabinet.
  • the drawer 36 has two lugs 38 in which freely engage in rotation two pins 40 extending coaxially substantially parallel to the hinge axis 18, and belonging to a tilting part 42 mounted articulated in rotation about a fixed axis 44 also parallel to the axis 18, via an upper axial bead 46 specific to rotate in bearings such as 48, carried by two opposite side walls of the part 24.
  • the drawer 36 also has two lateral arms extending at right angles, parallel to axis 18, by two wall primers bearing each an upper tongue 50, slightly inclined backwards and intended to come and engage each between two zones of the part 16 forming two guide fingers front 52 and rear 54, respectively (see also Figures 3 and 5).
  • the part 16 presented here between these lateral zones of guide 52, 54 and its pins 20, a hollow in which comes to engage an insert 56 bearing first of all a first spring 58 wound around a shaft 60 carried by the part 56 and extending parallel to the axis 18, as well as a block of shock absorbing foam 62 for example in polyvinyl chloride with closed cells or polyurethane impregnated with acrylic and whose presence constitutes an important characteristic of the invention.
  • this is a torsion spring, a pin, whose two opposite end portions are supported for one against the rear side wall 26a of the box 26, and for the other against the corresponding finger 52 (see Figures 2, 3 and 5).
  • the torsion spring 58 thus positioned will tend, as soon as the hook 14 by operating the pusher 30, to relax by communicating its relaxing energy to the cover, thus causing it to open with a certain speed depending on the force of the spring.
  • the object of the invention is to adjust this lid opening speed.
  • the spring 64 can in particular be constituted by a blade metallic folded substantially "in W" so as to be fairly clearly rigid at the start of deformation for release of the notch 14, effectively counteract the relaxation of the first spring 58 and thus communicate only enough low acceleration at the cover at the start of the race, thus ensuring a fortiori an adjustment of its speed which will be able to have the regularity and the relative slowness desired, the relay for the second part of the race being taken by the foam block 62 which, as shown in Figure 4, will advantageously arranged in the immediate vicinity of the hinge area of articulation of the cover, and therefore of its axis of pivoting 18, thus allowing by compression a end-of-travel terminal damping, without increase speed or final rebound, the foam block 62 being housed here in the hollow of an attachment in bucket 70 (see Figures 2 and 3) fixed to the cover to pivot with it, between the fingers 52 and the top of the rear wall 26a of the case against which the foam block is therefore crushed at the end of opening the cover (
  • figure 8 shows a variant of realization of the sliding drawer identified here 36 'and which distinguishes from drawer 36 in that it is integrally molded to him a tongue forming a bending spring 76, two branches substantially constituting an " ⁇ " by not forming only a central part with the wall rear transverse 66 already cited, so that in start of the drawer 36 'stroke, the ends of the branches 76 come to bear against the still existing wall 68 of the frame 24, thereby counteracting the effect of the spring opening 58 (not shown here) still existing.
