Definitions

  • the invention relates to a case for a stick of pasty products, in particular cosmetic or pharmaceutical products, of the type comprising a hollow box of elongated shape open at one end and closed at the other end, a cup carrying the stick, mounted axially movable in said box between a withdrawn position therein and a use position in which the stick protrudes through the open end, a bucket displacement device comprising a flexible ribbon in its longitudinal direction, fixed at one end to the bucket and guided to the level of its longitudinal edges in guide grooves extending along two faces of the housing, which are located opposite one another and form at the level of the closed end a curved guide track so that the tape can move axially in the housing in the guide grooves, and a means for controlling the movement of the tape, integral with it and movable e in an axial window formed in a wall parallel to the strip and accessible from the outside, as well as means for closing the opening of the housing when the bucket is in its retracted position, which are formed by the free end of the ribbon.
  • the invention also relates to a method of assembling the case according to the invention.
  • the means for controlling the movement of the ribbon are formed by a button which is slidably mounted on the corresponding external face of the housing and is connected to the ribbon by a connecting part of small dimension.
  • the passage window of the connecting element is then produced in the form of a slot of a relatively small width.
  • the latter consists of two shells which are assembled after the ribbon has been inserted and fixed to one another, for example by welding.
  • the present invention aims to provide a case of the type indicated above, which has a structure allowing faster and easier mounting, both manually and automatically.
  • the case according to the invention is characterized in that the guide grooves of each edge of the ribbon open outwards at the opening of the housing so that the ribbon can be introduced into the internal guideway, through this opening.
  • the method of assembling the case according to the invention is characterized in that the housing is first produced as a whole and then introduces the ribbon through the opening of the case.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the case for stick of pasty products according to the invention, before the introduction of the displacement tape of the bucket carrying the stick.
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view in the assembled state, the bucket occupying its withdrawn position.
  • Figure 3 is a perspective view of the case according to the invention after assembly, the bucket occupying its position of use where the stick is out.
  • Figure 4 is a top view of the case according to Figure 1, the two shells making up the case being separated.
  • Figure 5 is a view in the direction of arrow V in Figure 4, the two shells being in the assembled state.
  • FIG. 6 is a view in the direction of the arrow VI in FIG. 4.
  • Figure 7 is a sectional view along line VII-VII of Figure 6.
  • Figure 8 is a sectional view along line VIII-VIII of Figure 6.
  • Figure 9 is a side view of the ribbon shown in Figure 1.
  • the case according to the invention essentially comprises a box 1 composed of two parts 2, 3, each in the form of a shell, and a ribbon 4 which in the state introduced into the housing 1 constitutes the means of displacement of a bucket 5 adapted to receive a stick of a pasty product cosmetic, pharmaceutical or the like.
  • This stick is indicated in 6.
  • the two parts 2 and 3 in the form of shells of the case 1 have a structure which is symmetrical with respect to the median plane P.
  • the ribbon 4 is made in a flexible material in its axial direction, perpendicular to its width.
  • each shell 2 and 3 generally comprises a bottom wall 8, a side wall 9 and an upper wall 10.
  • the three walls extend substantially perpendicular to each other and constitute a U-shaped profile to delimit, in the state assembled with the other shell, the internal space 11 in which the bucket 5 carrying the stick 6 is axially displaceable.
  • One end bearing the reference 13 of each shell is closed, while the other end indicated at 14 is pierced and has an opening in the form of a half-ellipse 15. Consequently, in the assembled state, the case is closed at one end and has an opening 16 in the form of an ellipse allowing the stick 6 to exit.
  • the cutouts 17 of the two shells form a window 18 of rectangular shape in the upper wall of the case, which extends in the longitudinal direction of the latter over most of its length and has a width occupying substantially half the width of a case shell.
  • each shell comprises, below the cutout 17, at a predetermined distance from the remaining part of the upper wall 10, indicated at 20, a wall 21 which extends from the side wall 9, parallel to the wall portion 20 to the opening plane P of the shell.
  • the walls 20 and 21 define between them a groove 22 for guiding a longitudinal edge of the strip 4, as will be explained below.
  • each shell has two walls 24, 25 which are parallel to each other and to the wall 8.
  • the two walls 24 and 25 extend from the side wall 9, the bottom wall 24 substantially to the middle of the wall 8, the wall 25 being shorter.
  • the two walls define between them a groove 26 which also constitutes a groove for guiding the corresponding lateral edge of the ribbon 4.
  • the upper surface 27 of the wall 24, which is released, constitutes a support surface for the ribbon.
  • the guide groove 26 opens outwards in the end 14 of the shell and is open towards the opening bore 15. Referring to FIG. 5, it can be seen that the guide groove 26 is relatively close from the bottom wall 8, but extends into the end wall 14 to a depth in the width direction, which is greater than the width in this direction, that of the hole 15.
  • the upper wall 21 is extended by a curved wall 28 of the same width as the wall 21, which joins the narrower wall lower 26.
  • Another curved wall 29 substantially parallel to the wall 28 and of the same height as the latter extends from the appropriate transverse edge of the cutout 17 to the lower guide wall 24.
  • the walls 28 and 29 delimit between them a slot of curved profile 30 which communicates at its ends respectively with the guide grooves 22 and 26. As can be seen, there is thus obtained at the end 13 a guide groove without discontinuity.
  • the end wall indicated at 32 in which the opening bore is made, extends obliquely relative to the bottom wall 8, forming with this has an angle of about 60 ° in the example shown.
  • Parallel to this wall 32 which constitutes the outer wall extends inside a parallel wall 33 in extension of the wall 21, up to the bottom wall 8.
  • the opening bore 15 also extends through this wall 33.
  • the walls 32 and 33 are spaced from one another so as to form around the opening 15 a groove 35 whose width is chosen such that it can constitute a groove for guiding the corresponding longitudinal edge of the ribbon 4.
  • This groove 35 communicates at one end with the upper guide groove 22 and extends at the other end to the bottom wall 8 by obliquely crossing the guide groove 26.
  • the two shells 2 and 3 are advantageously produced by plastic molding, which explains the presence of certain ribs such as those indicated in 37 and 38 and certain reinforcing walls such as the wall 39 arranged at the level of the curved inner wall 28 and delimiting at the end 13 the internal space 11. It is also recognized in the figures, that the end 13 is configured so as to produce a suspension or support eyelet 40.
  • the shell 3 has projecting elements 41 engaging in hollow parts 42 provided at the level of the opening plane P of the other shell 2.
  • the ribbon 4 will be described below in more detail.
  • the bucket 5 carrying the stick 6, which in the example shown has an elliptical shape, is fixed to a end of the ribbon.
  • On the other end portion of the latter are delimited two axially aligned zones, which bear the references 45 and 46.
  • the zone 45 which constitutes the means for closing the opening 16 of the case, as shown in the Figure 2, carries on its underside of roughness elements 47 on an elliptical area, while the zone 46 bears on the underside of protruding elements 48 which extend perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tape and provide thus an application of a pushing force without risk of slipping of the fingers of a user of the case.
  • Figure 9 shows that the profile of the projections 48 is adapted to the fingers of the user, the projections being higher at the ends of the gripping area 46 than at its center.
  • the two shells 2 and 3 are assembled by fitting the assembly studs 41 into the complementary recesses 42.
  • the two shells are fixed to each other by ultrasonic welding.
  • the ribbon 4 is introduced into the housing, the elements 47, 48 oriented towards the bottom, through the opening 16 and the guide grooves 26 as it emerges from Figure 1. Since the ribbon is made of a flexible material but of a certain rigidity, the ribbon can be inserted by pushing it in the direction of arrow F.
  • the flexibility of the tape allows it to follow the curvatures of the guide track.
  • the opening 16 of the housing is slightly greater than the dimensions of the bucket 5 to allow passage of the latter during the insertion of the ribbon.
  • the length of the strip 4 is chosen so that in each of the positions, the gripping zone 46 is at the level of one end of the window 18 of the housing. In the extreme position of withdrawal of the bucket, the zone 45 is located in the front end (figure 2) while in the position of use, the zone 45 is located at the other end.
  • the front region 45 of the ribbon closes the opening 16, the front edge of the ribbon descending in the front guide groove 35 (FIG. 6), up to the bottom wall 8, in even crossing the grooves 26. It should also be noted that the width of the grip zone 45 is slightly less than the width of the window 18.
  • a transverse groove 51 has been made in the upper face of the upper guide wall in the region of each end of the window 18 or of the cutout 17 in the upper wall 21 of each shell. , 52 in which engages a rib 53 provided on the upper face of the ribbon.
  • the ribbon displacement control means could be produced in the form of an element attached to the ribbon after its insertion into the housing, in any suitable known manner.
  • the width of the longitudinal window could be narrower.
