Definitions

  • This invention relates to a plastics container for containing miscellaneous products, such as cosmetics, beauty and parapharmaceutical products, of the type comprising a base and a lid hinged together and provided with a snap-closure system at a point diametrically opposite the hinging point.
  • Containers of this type can be opened by a presser element which, when pressed, disengages a tooth provided on the lid from a suitable seat provided in the base, so as to be able to open the lid and gain access to the contents.
  • closure systems of the aforesaid type is relatively costly in that to form the base presser element which cooperates with the lid retention tooth, complicated moulds are required together with additional components such as the presser element itself, which in addition is visible from the outside, sometimes to the detriment of overall appearance.
  • closure systems are uncertain in that the snap-engagement of the tooth in its seat must be such as to enable the container to be closed and then opened utilizing the elasticity of the material, without the application of excessive force by the user.
  • the general object of the present invention is to obviate the drawbacks of the known art by means of a container provided with a closure system which combines the operational reliability of those comprising a presser element for positively disengaging the retention tooth from its seat, with the structural simplicity of those provided simply with a retention tooth on the lid, to be snap-engaged in an undercut seat provided in the base.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide an invisible closure system, so as not to negatively influence the overall appearance of the container.
  • the container of the invention is indicated overall by the reference numeral 10 and is formed structurally from a base 11, an elastically yieldable intermediate ring 12, and a lid 13 (Figure 2), all of plastics construction.
  • the container 10 is of generally flat circular shape.
  • the base 11 and ring 12 are stably coupled together by a snap connection but with the facility for mutual relative movement, as explained hereinafter, whereas the lid 13 is pivoted to the base 11 at 14.
  • the stable snap connection between the base 11 and the intermediate ring 12 is formed by pairs of elastically yieldable teeth 15, 16 provided on the facing inner sides of the base 11 and ring 12 respectively, in the region diametrically opposite the pin 14, and by a tooth 17 on the ring 12 which engages in an undercut 18 provided in a collar 19 of the base 11, in a position diametrically opposite the pairs of teeth 15, 16 ( Figures 2 , 3 and 6-9).
  • the lid 13 is closed onto the ring 12 by snap-closure by means of a tooth 22 which is inserted into a seat or aperture 23 in the ring 12 to engage the profiled edge 24 of said seat 23 by means of a corresponding notch 25.
  • the lid 13 can be provided internally with a mirror 26.
  • the lid 13 is opened by virtue of the elasticity and the facility for translational movement of the intermediate ring 12, by exerting a slight pressure with the fingers of one hand, preferably along the axis b-b in the opposite directions indicated by the arrows F2 in Figure 6, to cause the ring 12 to undergo a certain deformation ( Figure 7) and hence a slight forward translational movement along the axis a-a in the direction of the arrow F in Figures 5 and 6.
  • the container of the invention can be opened in an extremely simple and spontaneous manner by the user, who is able to grip and open the container with a single hand while retaining it in the palm, without having to change the grip on the container in order to use its contents when the lid is open.
  • the most favourable conditions for opening the lid 13 are those in which the user exerts a pressure in the opposing directions of the arrows F2 along an axis b-b perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the axis a-a.
  • the lid 13 can also be automatically opened by exerting a pressure along an axis b-b oblique to the axis a-a.
