Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of lipstick.
  • the lipstick tubes are usually composed of a basic body, support of the lipstick pencil or stick, can be projected outside by means of a drive mechanism helical, this set being completed by a cover can be coupled, by pressure, to the mouth of the body, cover which basically protects the lipstick holder and the pencil itself, while aesthetically finishing the tube as a whole.
  • the latter generally includes the receiving area of the mouth of the lid, small external projections which force said cover to undergo a slight elastic deformation with the resulting "clamp” effect on the body, which stabilizes the union between the two elements.
  • This fixing system implies that there remains, between the aforementioned protrusions, hollows which, although they are reduced in size, establish the communication between the inside and the outside of the tube, with the previously exposed problem concerning loss of volatile components involved in the formulation of lipstick and contamination of said lipstick by its environment.
  • the lipstick tube (20) comprises a cover (5) to be coupled by pressure to a neck (4) emerging axially from the body (1) of the tube, and is characterized in that it comprises a ring (6), fixed to said cover (5) or to said neck (4), having a free, flexible end (16), constituting the coupling means, respectively, to said neck (4) of the tube body or to said cover (5) made of a rigid material, said ring (6) comprising a circular rebate (9) defining a space annular (10) between the free end (16) of said ring (6) and, respectively, said cover (5) or said collar (4), towards which said ring can be elastically deformed when it mates, respectively, to said neck (4) or to said cover (5), to effect a sealed closure of said tube (20).
  • the lipstick tubes proposed by the invention constitute an improvement solving the problem previously exposed, allowing coupling completely sealed between the cover and the body and without implying manufacturing problems or subsequent handling, and allowing a very simple coupling and uncoupling of said cover, the level of tightness remaining for the entire duration of use of said tube, despite a very large number of mating cycles / uncoupling during this time.
  • Figure 1 shows, according to a projection view lateral and in diametral section, a tube of red to lips whose cover is made in accordance with improvements which are objects of the present invention.
  • Figure 2 shows an enlarged detail of the previous figure, at the coupling zone from the cover to the body.
  • the ring (6) is integral with the cover (5).
  • Figure 3 similar to Figure 2, shows a tube variant in which the tight closure is provided by circular ribs (18).
  • Figure 4 similar to Figure 2, shows a another modality of the invention in which the ring (6) is integral with the body (1) of the tube, said ring (6) can be located either outside or inside the body (1).
  • said ring (6) can be fixed to said cover (5), typically inside said cover, the free, flexible end (16) of said ring (6) constituting the means for coupling to said neck (4), said ring (6) comprising an external circular rebate (9), near its free end, which defines an annular space (10) between said ring (6) and said cover (5) of rigid nature, towards which the free end (16) of said ring (6) can be elastically deformed when it is coupled to the neck (4) of the body of the tube (1), to produce a sealing of said tube (20).
  • Said coupling between the free end (16) and the neck (4) takes place over a height typically between 3 and 20 mm.
  • Said rebate (9) determines a deformation margin sufficient for the end (16) of said ring (6), the diameter of which can be perfectly adjusted, or slightly smaller than the collar (4) of the tube body, deforms when coming into contact with the latter, undergoing a very slight increase in diameter, but quite sufficient so that the coupling between the two parts is perfectly waterproof.
  • the ring (6) can also be fixed outside the cover (5). In this case, the ring is tightly fixed to the cover.
  • This alternative embodiment has not been shown in a figure. However, it would correspond to the arrangement shown in FIG. 4, by reversing the references (1) and (5) on the one hand, and (4) and (17) on the other hand, that is to say by making play the body (1) the role of the cover (5) and vice versa.
  • the flexible end (16) of said ring (6) may have an internal diameter slightly lower than that of the neck (4) of the body (1), so that its coupling to the latter causes a deformation radial of said ring (6), since the edge (11) of the neck (4) is rounded and that the end (7) of the flexible part (16) of the ring (6) has a flared mouth (12) to facilitate the start of said coupling, as shown in Figure 2.
  • Said ring (6) can fit snugly in a staggered and circular rebate (13) of the internal surface of the cover (5), affecting the latter over a greater or lesser length (typically over a length ranging from 15 to 40 mm).
  • the ring (6) which remains perfectly stable inside the cover (5), in a staggered rebate (13) of said cover, can extend to a greater or lesser distance from the closed end of the cover , said ring also being able to be closed by one of its ends, by adapting as well to the side wall as to the wall of the bottom of the lid proper, without this affecting the essence of the invention , in the same way that the embodiment of the sealed fixing between the two elements, the cover itself and the ring, does not affect it either, fixing which can be carried out simply by adjustment and pressure, with the collaboration of an adhesive, a heat seal or by any other means.
  • said ring (6) can be fixed to said neck (4) of said body (1), inside or outside of said neck (4), the free end (16) , flexible, of said ring (6) constituting the coupling means to said cover (5), said ring (6) comprising a circular rebate (9), near its free end, which defines an annular space (10) between said free end (16) and said neck (4), towards which said free end (16) can be resiliently deformed when it is coupled to said cover (5), in order to produce a tight closure.
  • a circular rebate (9) near its free end, which defines an annular space (10) between said free end (16) and said neck (4), towards which said free end (16) can be resiliently deformed when it is coupled to said cover (5), in order to produce a tight closure.
  • the flexible end (16) of said ring (6) may have a diameter chosen with respect to that of said cover (5), so that its coupling to the latter causes a radial deformation of said flexible end (16) of said ring (6), since it has been provided that the edge (110) of the cover is rounded and that the end (7) of the flexible end (16) has a flared or bevelled mouth (12) to facilitate the start of mating.
  • said ring (6) can fit snugly in a circular rebate (15) of the internal or external surface of said neck (4), the latter possibly extending over a more or less long length of said body (1 ).
  • said neck (4) can extend over a length, or height of tube between 10 and 40 mm.
  • said cover (5) may have a thinned end (17), but not flexible, cooperating during said coupling with a coupling rebate (90) of said ring, said thinned end (17) and said coupling rabbet (90) being typically of the same thickness, so as to obtain surface continuity, interior or exterior, depending on whether said circular rebate (15) is located, respectively, inside or outside said neck (4). This method has been shown in Figure 4.
  • the ring (6) may be either substantially hidden if it is placed at inside the tube, the rebate (15) being at the inside of said neck (4), which is largely visible if it is placed outside the tube, and in this case, it may, in particular by its color clean contribute to the aesthetics of the tube.
  • the thickness of said free end (16) of said ring can range from 0.3 mm to 0.8 mm, the seal decreasing if said end is too rigid or too stiff. This thickness range makes it possible to ensure both the tightness of the tube and an opening / closing of the tube which requires only the usual minimal effort with this type of tube.
  • Said flexible material constituting said ring can be chosen from PE, PP, polyacetals, but preferably from polyacetals.
  • Said rigid material can be chosen from ABS, SAN (styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer).
  • said end flexible (16) may include circular ribs (18) ensuring said tight closure, as shown in Figure 3. It is also possible to place said rib (18), not on said flexible end (16), as shown in the figure 3, but on the part of the neck (4) or of the cover (17) cooperating with said flexible end (16) in view to ensure said tight closure.
  • Said ring (6) was chosen from polyacetal with a thickness of the end (16) chosen equal to 0.5 mm.
  • the body (1) and the cover (5) have been made in ABS.
