Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de contenir et d'extraire des produits cosmétiques en pâte du type dans lequel la composition pâteuse est portée par un support déplaçable en avant et en arrière par rapport à une base tubulaire formant récipient. Le dispositif permettant de contenir et d'extraire des produits cosmétiques peut présenter divers diamètres - plus ou moins grands - en fonction du type de produit cosmétique qu'il contient, qui peut par exemple être constitué par une mine, un crayon, un rouge à lèvres, etc. A titre d'exemple non limitatif, l'invention va être décrite ci-après en référence à un dispositif porte-mine.The present invention relates to a device allowing to contain and extract products paste cosmetics of the type in which the composition pasty is carried by a support that can be moved forward and back with respect to a tubular base forming container. The device for containing and extracting cosmetic products can present various diameters - more or less large - depending the type of cosmetic product it contains, which can for example be made up of a lead, a pencil, a lipstick, etc. By way of nonlimiting example, the invention will be described below with reference to a mechanical device.

Grâce au mouvement de translation du support, la pointe de la mine peut ainsi être extraite d'une position de repos à l'intérieur de la base susmentionnée, vers une position externe d'utilisation, dans laquelle la mine proprement dite est utilisée par exemple comme correcteur de teint, ombre à paupières ou crayon pour dessiner les contours, etc.Thanks to the translational movement of the support, the tip of the mine can thus be extracted from a rest position inside the base mentioned above, to an external position of use, in which the mine itself is used by example as a complexion corrector, eye shadow or pencil for drawing outlines, etc.

La réalisation de ces types de dispositifs a impliqué, jusqu'à présent, l'emploi de cinq ou même six composants distincts, d'où une fabrication et un montage relativement coûteux.The realization of these types of devices has involved, so far, the employment of five or even six separate components, resulting in manufacturing and relatively expensive assembly.

On connait anisi le document US-A-2 419 526 qui décrit un dispositif correspondant au préambule de la revendication 1.We also know document US-A-2 419 526 which describes a device corresponding to the preamble of claim 1.

En outre, dans des dispositifs de type connu, la base tubulaire est formée de deux pièces : un corps postérieur, de grand diamètre, auquel est accouplé par enclenchement un embout de petit diamètre d'où sort la mine. Ledit embout s'étend sur une grande longueur depuis le corps postérieur de la base si bien que, en utilisation, il est susceptible de fléchir, par rapport audit corps, rendant par conséquent imprécise l'intervention de l'utilisateur, du fait que la flexion se transmet aussi au support porte-mine.In addition, in known type devices, the tubular base is made up of two parts: a body posterior, large diameter, to which is coupled by a small diameter nozzle from which the mine. Said tip extends over a great length from the posterior base body so that in use, it is likely to flex, relative said body, therefore making it imprecise user intervention, because bending is also transmitted to the mechanical pencil holder.

Un autre inconvénient des dispositifs connus est représenté par le fait que ceux-ci, en position fermée, ne sont pas capables de garantir (si nécessaire) une étanchéité adaptée à l'air provenant de l'environnement extérieur.Another disadvantage of the known devices is represented by the fact that these, in the closed position, are not able to guarantee (if necessary) a sealing adapted to air from the environment outside.

Ceci est considéré comme une limite grave, en particulier en présence de produits cosmétiques contenant des composés extrêmement volatils qui, au contact de l'air extérieur au dispositif, se volatilisent rapidement avec une perte consécutive des caractéristiques d'origine du produit cosmétique.This is considered a serious limit, in especially in the presence of cosmetic products containing extremely volatile compounds which contact of air outside the device, volatilize rapidly with a consequent loss of original characteristics of the cosmetic product.

En effet, dans lesdits dispositifs connus, en dépit de la présence du capuchon de fermeture, l'air extérieur peut passer à travers le bouchon opposé au capuchon, et dans l'espace existant entre la base et le support.Indeed, in said known devices, despite the presence of the closing cap, the air outside can pass through the plug opposite the cap, and in the space between the base and the support.

La présente invention a pour objet général de pallier les inconvénients de la technique connue, en réalisant un dispositif permettant de contenir et d'extraire des cosmétiques en pâte du type susmentionné qui présente un nombre minimal de composants, et qui soit par conséquent économique.The general object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the known technique, by making a device for containing and extract paste cosmetics of the aforementioned type which has a minimum number of components, and which is therefore economical.

La présente invention a pour autre objet de réaliser un dispositif dans lequel le support du porte-mine soit, même en position d'utilisation, toujours assemblé de manière rigide à la base qui le contient, formant avec celle-ci un tout.Another object of the present invention is to make a device in which the support for the mechanical pencil either, even in the position of use, always rigidly assembled to the base that contains it, forming with it a whole.

L'invention a pour autre objet de réaliser un dispositif capable de garantir une étanchéité à l'environnement extérieur adaptée, apte à conserver dans le temps les caractéristiques d'origine du cosmétique, même en présence de composés extrêmement volatils.Another object of the invention is to provide a device capable of guaranteeing a seal against the adapted external environment, able to conserve the original characteristics of the cosmetic, even in the presence of extremely volatile.

Les objets susmentionnés sont atteints par un dispositif présentant les caractéristiques exposées dans les revendications annexées.The above objects are achieved by a device with the characteristics described in the appended claims.

Le dispositif permettant de contenir et d'extraire des produits cosmétiques selon l'invention est globalement indiqué, sur la figure 2 des dessins, par la référence numérique 10 et est structurellement formé de quatre pièces, à savoir : une base 11, un porte-mine 12, un bouchon postérieur 13 et un capuchon antérieur schématisé en 9. The device for containing and extracting cosmetic products according to the invention is generally indicated, in FIG. 2 of the drawings, by reference numeral 10 and is structurally formed of four pieces, namely: a base 11, a mechanical pencil 12, a rear cap 13 and an anterior cap shown schematically in 9.

Aux fins de l'invention, les trois composants fondamentaux sont : la base 11, le porte-mine 12 et le bouchon 13.For the purposes of the invention, the three components fundamental are: the base 11, the mechanical pencil 12 and the plug 13.

Comme on le voit clairement sur les dessins, la base 11 est tubulaire et est filetée sur l'intérieur de sa partie postérieure comme en 14.As can be clearly seen in the drawings, the base 11 is tubular and is threaded on the inside of its posterior part as in 14.

Solidaire de ladite base 11, s'étend un embout 33 qui est, de préférence mais pas nécessairement, formé d'un seul tenant avec la base 11 proprement dite.Solid with said base 11, extends a tip 33 which is preferably but not necessarily formed in one piece with the base 11 proper.

En outre, ladite base 11 se termine, à sa partie postérieure, par une partie 15, de section externe réduite, qui définit une butée annulaire 16.In addition, said base 11 ends, at its part posterior, by a part 15, of external section reduced, which defines an annular stop 16.

Ladite partie 15 présente en outre une nervure annulaire saillante 17.Said part 15 also has a rib protruding ring 17.

Le porte-mine 12 est formé par un corps cylindrique creux 18, ouvert à une extrémité 19, de la base 20 duquel (opposée à 19) s'étend une tige 21 qui se termine par une enveloppe 22 de fixation (par frottement) de l'extrémité arrière d'une mine de matériau en pâte, schématisée sur la figure 2 en 23.The mechanical pencil 12 is formed by a cylindrical body hollow 18, open at one end 19, from base 20 which (opposite 19) extends a rod 21 which ends with a fixing envelope 22 (by friction) of the rear end of a mine paste material, shown schematically in Figure 2 at 23.

Ledit corps cylindrique 18, sur l'extérieur, à proximité de l'extrémité 19, prévoit un filet circonférentiel 24 destiné à s'accoupler et à coopérer avec ledit filetage interne 14 de la base 11.Said cylindrical body 18, on the outside, at near end 19, provides a net circumferential 24 intended to mate and cooperate with said internal thread 14 of the base 11.

Enfin, le corps 18 présente, à l'intérieur, en correspondance avec l'extrémité ouverte 19, quatre nervures en croix 25 (figure 4) définissant un siège central 31.Finally, the body 18 has, inside, in correspondence with the open end 19, four cross ribs 25 (Figure 4) defining a seat central 31.

Le bouchon 13 est structurellement formé d'un corps cylindrique creux 26, ouvert à une extrémité de la base 27 duquel s'étend, et sort de l'extrémité ouverte, une queue 28 présentant un profil en croix, d'un diamètre inférieur à celui de la gaine du corps 26, apte à s'accoupler au corps cylindrique 18 du support 12 pour permettre l'insertion de ladite queue 28 dans le siège 31 défini par les nervures en croix correspondantes 25 (figures 3 à 5).The plug 13 is structurally formed from a body hollow cylindrical 26, open at one end of the base 27 from which extends, and leaves the open end, a tail 28 having a cross profile, of a diameter lower than that of the sheath of the body 26, capable of mate with the cylindrical body 18 of the support 12 for allow the insertion of said tail 28 in the seat 31 defined by the corresponding cross ribs 25 (Figures 3 to 5).

A l'intérieur du corps 26 du bouchon 13 est en outre prévue une gorge annulaire 29 apte à s'accoupler par enclenchement sur la nervure angulaire correspondante 17 de la section 15 de la base 11.Inside the body 26 of the plug 13 is in besides provided an annular groove 29 capable of coupling by engagement on the angular rib correspondent 17 of section 15 of base 11.

Selon la présente invention, on peut former, d'un seul tenant avec l'enveloppe 22 (lorsqu'on souhaite de l'étanchéité), une garniture annulaire 32 capable d'exercer une action d'étanchéité contre la surface interne cylindrique de l'embout 33 de la base 11. De cette manière, le produit en pâte 23, lorsque le dispositif est fermé, est parfaitement isolé de l'extérieur.According to the present invention, it is possible to form, from a in one piece with the envelope 22 (when it is desired to sealing), an annular packing 32 capable to exert a sealing action against the surface internal cylindrical end piece 33 of the base 11. De this way, the paste product 23, when the device is closed, is perfectly isolated from outside.

Le montage des trois composants 11, 12, 13 décrits ci-dessus a lieu de la manière illustrée sur la figure 2, c'est-à-dire en vissant simplement le porte-mine 12 à l'intérieur de la base 11 et en l'attachant en place par application du bouchon 13, par insertion de la queue 28 sur les nervures 25 et mise en prise de la gorge 29 sur la nervure 17, l'extrémité ouverte du bouchon 13 étant disposée contre la butée 16 de la base 11 proprement dite.The assembly of the three components 11, 12, 13 described above takes place as illustrated in the figure 2, i.e. by simply screwing the mechanical pencil 12 inside base 11 and tying it in place by applying the plug 13, by inserting the tail 28 on the ribs 25 and engagement of the groove 29 on rib 17, the open end of the cap 13 being disposed against the stop 16 of the base 11 itself.

Naturellement, l'accouplement en vue d'une rotation entre le porte-mine 12 et le bouchon 13 peut aussi être réalisé d'une manière différente de celle illustrée ici et décrite ci-dessus à simple titre d'exemple non limitatif.Naturally, mating for rotation between the mechanical pencil 12 and the plug 13 can also be performed in a different way from that illustrated here and described above by way of example not limiting.

Le mouvement en avant et en arrière du porte-mine 12, dans le sens de la flèche 30, avec une translation relative par rapport à la base 11, est effectué simplement par rotation de la base 11 proprement dite par rapport au bouchon 13 qui, pour la rotation, est attaché au porte-mine 12 proprement dit.The forward and backward movement of the mechanical pencil 12, in the direction of arrow 30, with a translation relative to base 11, is performed simply by rotating the base 11 proper relative to the plug 13 which, for rotation, is attached to the mechanical pencil 12 proper.

Les objets mentionnés en préambule de la description sont ainsi atteints, à savoir réaliser un dispositif permettant de contenir et d'extraire un produit cosmétique qui, en plus d'être étanche à l'environnement extérieur, est réalisé avec un nombre minimum de composants et dans lequel le porte-mine, même en position d'utilisation, est solidement attaché à la base, formant un tout avec celle-ci.The objects mentioned in the preamble to the description are thus reached, namely making a device for containing and extracting a cosmetic product which, in addition to being waterproof the external environment, is realized with a number minimum of components and in which the mechanical pencil, even in use position, is securely attached at the base, forming a whole with it.
