Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne le conditionnement de produits tels que crèmes fabriquées notamment pour l'industrie cosmétique, pharmaceutique, de la parfumerie, voire alimentaire. Est particulièrement visé le conditionnement de faibles quantités, d'au plus 15 ml, susceptibles par exemple de constituer des échantillons de démonstration ou autre. L'invention demeure néanmoins adaptée au conditionnement de quantités supérieures, ainsi que de produits pulvérulents ou encore fluides plus ou moins visqueux.The invention relates to the packaging of products such as creams manufactured especially for the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, perfumery, even food. Is particularly targeted on packaging of small quantities, not more than 15 ml, susceptible by example of constituting demonstration samples or other. The invention nevertheless remains suitable for packaging quantities higher, as well as powdery or fluid products more or less viscous.
Dans le type de conditionnement envisagé sont déterminants la rapidité et le faible coût de fabrication de l'emballage, une isolation satisfaisante du contenu vis-à-vis de l'atmosphère ambiante, sinon la réalisation systématique d'une parfaite étanchéité.In the type of packaging envisaged, the speed and low cost of packaging manufacturing, insulation content vis-à-vis the ambient atmosphere, otherwise the systematic realization of a perfect seal.
Ces buts sont réalisés de manière simple par le moyen de conditionnement de l'invention qui a pour objet un pot comprenant un contenant, un bouchage et une charnière flexible reliant le contenant et le bouchage, dans lequel le contenant, le bouchage et la charnière flexible sont venus de matière.These goals are achieved in a simple way by means of packaging of the invention which relates to a pot comprising a container, a stopper and a flexible hinge connecting the container and the closure, in which the container, the closure and the flexible hinge came from matter.
Ce pot est susceptible d'être fabriqué selon des procédés rapides, simples et économiques comme expliqué par la suite. Une étanchéité parfaite peut être garantie dans certains modes de réalisation. De nombreuses formes de la charnière, par ailleurs constituée de la même matière que le contenant et le bouchage, sont compatibles avec l'invention. Il s'agit, par exemple, d'une languette flexible.This pot is likely to be manufactured by rapid processes, simple and economical as explained below. A seal perfect can be guaranteed in certain embodiments. Of many forms of the hinge, otherwise made of the same material that the container and the stopper are compatible with the invention. It is, for example, a flexible tongue.
De préférence, la charnière flexible est à effet ressort ; par cet effet, la charnière entraíne le bouchage, à partir d'une position intermédiaire d'équilibre instable, soit en position ouverte, soit en position fermée. Une telle charnière flexible à effet ressort, intéressante notamment en ce qu'elle ne présente pas de parties saillantes importantes et autorise l'utilisation de machines de remplissage classiques, est décrite relativement à une fermeture de distribution dans le brevet FR-B 1-2 498 240 dont l'enseignement est incorporé ici à titre de référence. Une telle fermeture de distribution, largement utilisée dans les domaines alimentaire et cosmétique, notamment pour les shampooings, est communément de géométrie sensiblement cylindrique ; elle est vissée par sa partie inférieure ouverte sur le goulot d'une bouteille, sa partie supérieure étant fermée par un bouchage articulé au moyen d'une charnière. La fermeture de distribution présente également une paroi transversale munie d'un orifice et destiné à limiter le débit de produit contenu distribué sous l'effet, par exemple, d'une pression exercée sur les flancs de la bouteille.Preferably, the flexible hinge has a spring effect; by this effect, the hinge causes the plugging, from an intermediate position unstable equilibrium, either in the open position or in the closed position. A such a flexible spring-effect hinge, particularly interesting in that it has no significant protrusions and authorizes the use of conventional filling machines, is described in relation to a closure of distribution in patent FR-B 1-2 498 240 including the teaching is incorporated here for reference. Such a closure of distribution, widely used in the food and cosmetic, especially for shampoos, is commonly substantially cylindrical geometry; it is screwed by its lower part open on the neck of a bottle, its upper part being closed by an articulated stopper by means of a hinge. The closure of distribution also has a transverse wall provided with an orifice and intended to limit the flow of product content distributed under the effect, by example, of a pressure exerted on the sides of the bottle.
Avantageusement, le pot de l'invention comprend des moyens de verrouillage de la position fermée du bouchage ; ces moyens peuvent consister en un relief en excroissance du contenant, respectivement du bouchage, coopérant avec une concavité du bouchage, respectivement du contenant, ayant bien entendu un positionnement et une forme correspondant à ceux du relief en excroissance. L'effet produit est un encliquetage.Advantageously, the pot of the invention comprises means for locking the closed position of the plug; these means can consist of a raised projection of the container, respectively of the capping, cooperating with a concavity of the capping, respectively of the container, having of course a positioning and a shape corresponding to those of the protruding relief. The effect produced is a snap-in.
Tous autres reliefs en excroissance et/ou concavité, de formes par exemple sensiblement annulaires, peuvent être prévus par ailleurs à la périphérie du contenant et/ou du bouchage pour garantir l'étanchéité du pot de l'invention, tout en participant éventuellement de surcroít au verrouillage de la position fermée du bouchage décrite précédemment.All other protrusions in protrusion and / or concavity, of shapes by substantially annular example, can also be provided for the periphery of the container and / or closure to guarantee the tightness of the pot of the invention, while possibly also participating in the locking of the closed position of the closure described above.
Dès l'origine de la conception du pot de l'invention, la matière préférée pour le constituer est une matière plastique injectable. Celle-ci comprend une matière mise en oeuvre par moulage par injection réactive, technique désignée par les initiales R.I.M. pour Reaction Injection Moulding ; cette technique comprend l'injection dans un moule de réactifs de polycondensation à l'état liquide. La matière plastique injectable comprend également une matière thermoplastique mise en oeuvre par injection classique.From the origin of the design of the pot of the invention, the material preferred to constitute it is an injectable plastic. This comprises a material used by reactive injection molding, technique designated by the initials R.I.M. for Reaction Injection Molding; this technique involves injecting reagents into a mold polycondensation in the liquid state. Injectable plastic also includes a thermoplastic material used by conventional injection.
De préférence, cette matière consiste en une polyoléfine non styrénique ou en un mélange de telles polyoléfines, choisies tout particulièrement parmi un polypropylène, un copolymère de propylène ou un polyéthylène.Preferably, this material consists of a non-polyolefin styrenic or a mixture of such polyolefins, chosen any particularly among a polypropylene, a propylene copolymer or polyethylene.
Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse, la surface extérieure du pot, c'est-à-dire sa surface visible en position fermée du bouchage, présente une concavité qui permet, en prenant appui sur ses bords, de faire pivoter le bouchage (3) de sa position fermée à sa position ouverte. Dans cette variante, l'un desdits bords appartient nécessairement au contenant, l'autre au bouchage, de sorte que l'écartement de l'un par rapport à l'autre puisse être obtenu.According to another advantageous characteristic, the external surface of the jar, that is to say its visible surface in the closed position of the stopper, has a concavity which allows, by resting on its edges, to rotate the plug (3) from its closed position to its open position. In this variant, one of said edges necessarily belongs to container, the other at the stopper, so that the spacing of one by relation to the other can be obtained.
Un mode de réalisation particulièrement intéressant consiste en ce que le bouchage (3) présente un trou traversant. Il est précisé qu'en l'absence d'une telle caractéristique, le remplissage du pot nécessite l'ouverture préalable du bouchage (3). Or, en position ouverte du bouchage (3), il s'avère plus difficile de positionner correctement à la périphérie du pot un éventuel motif imprimé selon une technique de type offset ; de plus, lors du passage des pots dans des bols vibrants, certains pots peuvent s'expulser mutuellement des bols, ce qui ne se produit plus en position fermée du bouchage (3), autorisant une répartition plus régulière et homogène des pots dans les bols.A particularly interesting embodiment consists of that the plug (3) has a through hole. It is specified that in the absence of such a characteristic, filling the pot requires prior opening of the closure (3). However, in the open position of the plugging (3), it is more difficult to correctly position the periphery of the pot a possible pattern printed according to a type technique offset; moreover, when passing the pots through vibrating bowls, some pots can expel bowls from each other, which no longer occurs in the closed position of the stopper (3), allowing more distribution regular and homogeneous pots in the bowls.
Les pots sont donc remplis par le trou traversant du bouchage, puis scellés par l'association d'une pièce de forme correspondant à celle du trou traversant. Cette pièce peut être, mais n'est pas nécessairement, constituée de la même matière que celle des autres parties du pot. Le scellage peut consister en un encliquetage de la pièce sur les bords du trou traversant ou en un emboítement de la pièce sur ces bords, avec application d'un film collant recouvrant la surface supérieure de la pièce et du bouchage, ou similaire.The pots are therefore filled by the through hole of the stopper, then sealed by the association of a piece of shape corresponding to that of the through hole. This part can be, but is not necessarily, made of the same material as that of the other parts of the pot. The sealing can consist of a snap of the part on the edges of the through hole or in an interlocking of the part on these edges, with application of a sticky film covering the upper surface of the part and plugging, or the like.
L'invention a, d'autre part, pour objet un procédé de fabrication du pot décrit ci-dessus, par injection. Ce procédé est simple, rapide et économique. Il permet de plus de fabriquer des pots de contenances différentes en ne modifiant qu'un des deux demi-moules, voire en ôtant ou ajoutant des parties amovibles à ce demi-moule.The invention also relates to a process for manufacturing the pot described above, by injection. This process is simple, fast and economic. It also makes it possible to manufacture pots of capacities different by modifying only one of the two half-molds, or even by removing or adding removable parts to this half-mold.
D'autres objets de l'invention consistent en l'application du pot précédemment décrit :
- pour contenir un produit du domaine de la cosmétique, la parfumerie ou la pharmacie ;
- pour contenir un produit ayant la consistance d'une crème ; ou
- pour contenir un échantillon de produit en une quantité comprise entre 1 et 25 ml, de préférence entre 2 et 15 ml.
- to contain a product from the field of cosmetics, perfumery or pharmacy;
- to contain a product having the consistency of a cream; or
- to contain a product sample in an amount between 1 and 25 ml, preferably between 2 and 15 ml.

- FIG. 1b is a top view of this pot,
- Figure 2 is a side sectional view of a second pot according to the invention, in the stopper position indicated above.
En référence à ces trois figures, un pot 1 résulte d'un procédé d'injection classique de polypropylène standard.With reference to these three figures, a pot 1 results from a process of standard polypropylene injection.
Il comprend un contenant 2, un bouchage 3 articulé sur le
contenant 2 au moyen d'une charnière flexible 4 reliant le contenant 2 au
bouchage 3. Le contenant 2, le bouchage 3 et la charnière flexible 4 sont
venus de matière, c'est-à-dire constituent un volume continu formé par le
polypropylène injecté. It includes a
La figure 1b illustre l'existence d'un plan de symétrie longitudinal (horizontal sur cette figure). La charnière flexible 4 est à effet ressort. Elle est constituée par une partie médiane dans la continuité de laquelle se trouvent, de part et d'autre du plan de symétrie précité, des feuilles (en polypropylène) trapézoïdales, voire quasi triangulaires, comme décrit dans le brevet FR-B1-2 498 240.Figure 1b illustrates the existence of a longitudinal plane of symmetry (horizontal in this figure). The flexible hinge 4 has a spring effect. She consists of a middle part in the continuity of which is find, on either side of the above-mentioned plane of symmetry, leaves (in polypropylene) trapezoidal, or even almost triangular, as described in FR-B1-2 498 240.
Les pots représentés en figures 1a, respectivement 2, sont de contenances de 5 ml, respectivement 3 ml. Ils peuvent être fabriqués en utilisant un unique premier demi-moule et deux seconds demi-moules différents et interchangeables, ou un unique moule et des broches interchangeables.The pots shown in Figures 1a, respectively 2, are of capacity of 5 ml, respectively 3 ml. They can be made in using a single first half-mold and two second half-molds different and interchangeable, or a single mold and pins interchangeable.
Dans le mode de réalisation - non représenté sur les figures - dans lequel le bouchage (3) présente un trou traversant, celui-ci peut être de forme circulaire, notamment centrée sur l'axe de symétrie du bouchage (3) et de surface correspondant à 10 à 50 %, voire jusqu'à 70 %, de la section transversale du pot.In the embodiment - not shown in the figures - in which the plug (3) has a through hole, this may be of circular shape, in particular centered on the axis of symmetry of the closure (3) and of surface corresponding to 10 to 50%, even up to 70%, of the section cross section of the pot.
Ainsi est rendu accessible, grâce à l'invention, un moyen de conditionnement pour de nombreux produits, par un matériau parfaitement compatible tel que le polypropylène, ce moyen de conditionnement étant susceptible d'être obtenu selon un procédé simple, économique et adaptable.Thus is made accessible, thanks to the invention, a means of packaging for many products, by a material perfectly compatible such as polypropylene, this means of packaging being capable of being obtained according to a simple process, economical and adaptable.
