Definitions

  • the present invention relates to devices for packaging and application of a liquid hair product or pasty, in particular a hair dye, and more particularly a device comprising a container capable of containing the product and a comb-shaped applicator with hollow teeth to distribute this product within the hair.
  • This type of device reduces application time on the hair and facilitates obtaining a uniform coloring when the product is a tincture.
  • the present invention relates to a new device for packaging and application of a liquid or pasty product, in particular a hair product, comprising a container capable of contain said product and a tooth comb applicator hollow to distribute the product, characterized in that the applicator is fixed from the outset on the container and thereby that one of the applicator teeth is closed by a portion individual breakable and the other teeth are closed with a common breakable portion, said individual portion being shaped so as to form, after turning over, a closure cap for the tooth in question.
  • the latter can thus be used to distribute a low quantity of product to carry out a preliminary test.
  • a device 1 in front elevation with partial removal, a device 1 according to an example of embodiment of the invention, comprising a container 2 capable of containing a liquid product such as a tincture and an applicator 3 for distribute this product within the hair.
  • the container 2 is constituted by the assembly of two thermoformed shells 5 and has at its upper part a neck 4 defining a mouth of oval section.
  • Each shell 5 has, on its lateral sides, flanges 6 intended to be welded, face to face, on the flanges respective of the other shell.
  • the shells 5 are made of a material relatively flexible plastic, allowing the product to be chased away contained in the container out of the latter under the pressure of fingers.
  • the lower sides of the two shells 5 are welded directly edge to edge so as to constitute a fund flat allowing the container to stand upright.
  • the applicator 3 is preferably produced by molding by injection into a flexible plastic material and comprises as shown more particularly in Figure 2 a base 7 consisting of a tubular skirt 8 of oval section closed at its part upper by a dome-shaped wall 9, on which connect a plurality of hollow teeth 10 with parallel axes and regularly spaced.
  • the tubular skirt 8 is shaped to fit closely in col 4.
  • the base 7 is stiffened by a plurality of partitions transverse 11 connecting, in the width direction, the sides opposite the tubular skirt 8, each connecting to the wall 9 between the lower orifices of two adjacent teeth 10 and extending practically over the entire height of the tubular skirt 8.
  • the wall 9 slightly protrudes at its periphery by relative to the tubular skirt 8 to abut at the end of the insertion of the base 7 in the neck 4 against the upper end edge of the latter, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the teeth 10 have a conical shape decreasing towards the high.
  • the other teeth 10 are closed at their upper end by a self-breaking common portion 13 molded in one piece with the rest of the applicator 3.
  • the portion 13 is constituted by a vertical plate whose lower edge connects the ends upper teeth 10 by means of a thinned wall which can break when a force is applied to the portion 13 in one direction perpendicular to its plane.
  • the portion 13 is also hollowed out internally in its thickness in the extension of the axial recess of each tooth 10 so that after rupture of the wall 14, the end upper of teeth 10 is well cleared to allow a satisfactory flow of the product contained in the container 2.
  • the upper part of the portion 14 is constituted by a tubular wall 15 surrounding a central pin 16, and the part lower is connected to the conical wall of tooth 10 by a wall thinned ring, to break to allow product flow through tooth 10.
  • portion 14 is hollowed out internally in line with the central recess of the tooth 10 to properly clear the outlet opening when opened.
  • portion 14 can be turned over and engaged on the upper end of tooth 10, the pin 16 coming from engage in the upper hole 17 of tooth 10 and the wall tubular 15 being retained by friction on tooth 10.
  • the applicator 3 is introduced into the neck 4 until the wall 9 stops against the edge upper 18 of the collar 4 which then tightly surrounds the skirt tubular 8, as shown more particularly on the section of Figure 4.
  • the neck 4 of the container is then welded to the tubular skirt 8 at means for example of two heating jaws A coming to be applied on the external surface of the neck 4 of the container, as illustrated schematically in Figure 5.
  • the tightness of the closure of the neck 4 is obtained by welding the applicator 3.
  • the applicator is molded onto the neck of the container.
  • the container is preferably refillable with the bottom, and constituted for example by a tube.
  • the applicator is used as follows. To make a test key, we only break, as shown on the Figure 6, the portion 14, thus freeing the orifice 17. We have then a nozzle allowing to distribute with a low flow a small quantity of product, to carry out a preliminary test the eve of treatment for example.
  • the portion is broken divisible 13 and again removing the portion 14 to have the all of the teeth 10 for dispensing the product, as shown in figure 8.
