Definitions
- the present invention relates to a double dispensing container with deformable walls, in particular a tube, for separately containing and simultaneously dispensing two liquid or fluid products.
- the partition wall of the two compartments internal to the tube must also be able to be deformable under the effect of the pressure exerted. Indeed, if this wall does not deform sufficiently, there is a risk of breaking the partition wall and causing the two separate compartments to communicate.
- Patent FR-B-2,627,463 proposes a tubular container with deformable walls comprising a longitudinal partition delimiting two distinct compartments inside the container, of width equal to at least the internal half perimeter of the container body and tightly connected to the walls of said container.
- the document FR-A-1.209.359 proposes containers with multiple compartments and in particular a bulb made up of two symmetrical twin bulbs assembled by welding on their periphery or only at their ends. These bulbs are made of a rigid or semi-rigid material and are designed to contain a product which, once the bulb has been opened by cutting off one of the ends, is completely consumed.
- Such an embodiment does not make it possible to obtain a satisfactory dispenser insofar as this ampoule can only be used to contain predetermined doses of product and, moreover, does not allow deformation of these walls in order to help to distribution.
- the invention provides a dispensing container with deformable walls, in particular a tube, in which the seal between two separate compartments is completely ensured.
- the invention consists of a dispenser container with deformable walls comprising two compartments separated from each other, characterized in that the tubular body of the container has a shape substantially oval, the ends of which are formed by the two compartments, at least one deformable free space being provided between said compartments.
- the free space is deformed under the effect of manual pressure by escaping the air by means of an orifice provided in the container such that, when the pressure ceases, the air returns to the free space. by means of said orifice.
- the space freed by the evacuation of air during the exercise of pressure is used by the two compartments which house their own elastic deformations therein, the section of the tubular body being advantageously chosen to accommodate said elastic deformations such as the inner walls of the two compartments can be contiguous to the crash.
- the space is such that the walls of the two compartments can only touch when said compartments are completely crushed.
- the dispensing container is made of an elastically deformable material so that the free space can completely recover its original volume when the pressure exerted ceases. At the same time, the entire container also returns to its original shape.
- the external surface between the two compartments can be used for commercial or advertising inscriptions.
- the invention makes it possible to obtain a larger writing surface while offering the possibility of limiting the volume of the products offered.
- an aesthetic effect linked to the presence of the free space can be obtained by using a translucent or semi-translucent material to produce the dispensing container.
- This type of double dispenser container finds application in cosmetics but also in other fields such as in particular adhesives.
- the dispensing container according to the invention comprises a tubular body 1 and a closure cap 2.
- a tubular body 1 In the tubular body 1 are arranged two compartments 4, 4 ′, preferably of circular section, located at the ends of the tubular body 1.
- a free space 5 filled with air is created between the compartments 4 and 4 ′ and the faces 6 and 7 of the tubular body 1.
- the section of the tubular body 1 is such that, when a pressure is exerted on the walls of said tubular body 1, the air contained in the free space 5 is partly evacuated and the elastic deformations of the compartments 4 and 4 'are housed in the free space 5 released from part of its air.
- the container preferably made of an elastically deformable material, recovers its shape by reintroducing air into the free space 5.
- a head 8 provided with discharge conduits 3 and 3 'respectively extending the compartments 4 and 4', the assembly ensuring the mixed distribution of the products contained in said compartments 4 and 4 '.
- the air inlet and outlet orifice in the space 5 can be located on one of the faces 6 or 7 of the tubular body, but preferably the head 8 can also include this orifice.
