Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un mécanisme d'étui tournant du type de ceux utilisés pour des produits cosmétiques, tels que le rouge à lèvres ou diverses crèmes labiales, par exemple.The present invention relates to a rotating case mechanism of the type of those used for cosmetic products, such as red to lips or various lip creams, for example.
On connaít dans l'art antérieur un grand nombre d'étui tournant comme par exemple celui décrit dans la demande de brevet français n° 97 10166 de la demanderesse. Le principe de ces étuis consiste à obtenir le déplacement axial d'un curseur, porteur du produit, à l'aide de la rotation, par rapport à celui-ci , d'un corps muni d'une rainure interne hélicoïdale dans laquelle vient coopérer un doigt ou téton de guidage du curseur destiné à la parcourir. Ce type de mécanisme nécessite des moyens de blocage en rotation du curseur par rapport au corps pivotant, de manière à provoquer le déplacement axial de celui-ci lorsque la rainure hélicoïdale pivote de façon à être parcourue par le doigt ou téton de guidage du curseur.We know in the prior art a large number of rotating case such as that described in the French patent application Applicant no. 97 10166. The principle of these cases consists in obtain the axial displacement of a cursor carrying the product, using the rotation, relative to it, of a body provided with an internal groove helical in which a finger or pin guiding the cursor to browse it. This type of mechanism requires means for locking the cursor in rotation relative to the pivoting body, so as to cause the axial displacement thereof when the helical groove pivots so as to be traversed by the finger or nipple cursor guidance.
Ces moyens de blocage peuvent être constitués par une troisième pièce indépendante, comme par exemple, une embase, de laquelle s'étendent deux portions de profils longitudinaux destinés à coopérer avec deux gorges périphériques externes du curseur pour le guider en coulissement et l'immobiliser en rotation par rapport au corps pivotant. Toutefois, ces mécanismes peuvent également ne comporter que deux pièces indépendantes à savoir, un corps pivotant classique et une pièce principale comportant une embase, un curseur et des éléments de charnières articulés, qui les relient, autorisant le mouvement axial de l'un par rapport à l'autre en se dépliant mais empêchant toute rotation entre eux. Ce genre de mécanisme est décrit dans, par exemple, le document US-A-3,771,881.These blocking means can be constituted by a third independent part, such as a base, from which extend two portions of longitudinal profiles intended to cooperate with two external peripheral grooves of the cursor to guide it in sliding and immobilizing it in rotation relative to the pivoting body. However, these mechanisms may also include only two independent parts namely, a conventional pivoting body and a part main comprising a base, a slider and elements of articulated hinges, which connect them, allowing the axial movement of one relative to the other by unfolding but preventing any rotation between them. This kind of mechanism is described in, for example, document US-A-3,771,881.
Cependant, de tels dispositifs, s'ils présentent l'avantage de réduire le nombre de pièces nécessaires au mécanisme d'étui tournant, ils comportent néanmoins des inconvénients liés à la fragilité de l'articulation des éléments de charnières entre elles, ainsi qu'à la place qu'ils occupent lorsqu'ils sont en position repliée. La superposition des éléments de charnières au-dessus de l'embase constitue une gène pour respecter les contraintes de dimensionnement de ce type de produits cosmétiques, et ce notamment lorsque pour des raisons esthétiques l'embase choisie est une embase longue.However, such devices, if they have the advantage of reduce the number of parts required for the rotating case mechanism, they nevertheless have drawbacks linked to the fragility of the articulation of the hinge elements together, as well as in place which they occupy when they are in the folded position. The superposition of hinge elements above the base constitutes a gene for respect the sizing constraints of this type of product cosmetics, especially when for aesthetic reasons the base chosen is a long base.
Ainsi, la présente invention a pour objectif de résoudre les inconvénients précités à l'aide de moyens simples, fiables, peu onéreux et faciles à mettre en oeuvre Elle propose un mécanisme d'étui tournant susceptible d'être utilisé dans la cosmétologie, dont la solidité est importante et dont la taille est réduite, par rapport aux produits similaires de l'art antérieur.Thus, the present invention aims to solve the disadvantages mentioned above using simple, reliable, inexpensive and easy to implement It offers a rotating case mechanism likely to be used in cosmetology, the strength of which is large and reduced in size compared to similar products of the prior art.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention se dégageront
de la description qui va suivre en regard des dessins annexés qui ne sont
donnés qu'à titre d'exemples non limitatifs.
Selon l'invention, le mécanisme d'étui tournant portant la référence générale (1) est constitué par deux pièces, à savoir, un corps pivotant (2) et une pièce principale (3). La pièce principale est constituée d'une embase (4), d'un curseur (5) et d'éléments de charnières articulés (6) également appelés nervures qui les relient et qui constituent les moyens de blocage en rotation, destinés à solidariser le curseur et l'embase pour empêcher tout pivotement respectif entre eux.According to the invention, the rotary case mechanism carrying the general reference (1) consists of two parts, namely, a body swivel (2) and a main part (3). The main room is made up a base (4), a slider (5) and articulated hinge elements (6) also called ribs which connect them and which constitute the rotation locking means, intended to secure the cursor and the base to prevent any respective pivoting between them.
L'embase (4) et le curseur (5) sont bloqués en rotation respectivement entre eux par les éléments de charnières (6), lesdits éléments permettant ainsi au curseur (5) de se déplacer axialement par rapport à l'embase (4), de manière connue en soi le long de l'axe de révolution (ZZ') du mécanisme d'étui tournant (1).The base (4) and the slider (5) are locked in rotation respectively between them by the hinge elements (6), said elements thus allowing the cursor (5) to move axially by relative to the base (4), in a manner known per se along the axis of revolution (ZZ ') of the rotating case mechanism (1).
Le déplacement axial du curseur (5) par rapport à l'embase (4) est obtenu de manière connue en soi par la rotation du corps pivotant (2) par rapport à la pièce principale (3), qui permet à un ou plusieurs tétons de guidage (7a, 7b) du curseur (5) de parcourir des rainures internes (8a, 8b) respectives disposées sur la paroi interne du corps pivotant (2), lors de son pivotement.The axial displacement of the cursor (5) relative to the base (4) is obtained in a manner known per se by the rotation of the pivoting body (2) relative to the main room (3), which allows one or more guide pins (7a, 7b) of the cursor (5) to traverse grooves respective internal (8a, 8b) disposed on the internal wall of the body pivoting (2), when pivoted.
Notons que ce type de mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) peut avantageusement être utilisé pour réaliser des tubes de rouge à lèvres ou autres produits cosmétiques ou pharmaceutiques, tels que des crèmes labiales. Toutefois, ces mécanismes pourraient éventuellement être utilisés dans d'autres domaines, comme par exemple, pour réaliser les colles en tube ou autre.Note that this type of rotating case mechanism (1) can advantageously be used to make lipstick tubes or other cosmetic or pharmaceutical products, such as creams labial. However, these mechanisms could possibly be used in other areas, such as, for example, tube or whatever.
Les éléments de charnières (6) sont articulés à leur extrémité supérieure sur la face inférieure du curseur (5) et à leur extrémité inférieure sur l'extrémité supérieure de l'embase (4), respectivement aux points d'articulation supérieur et inférieur (9a, 9b). Ils permettent au curseur (5) de coulisser le long de l'axe de révolution (ZZ'), à l'intérieur du corps pivotant (2) entre une position repliée (A) ou position basse, illustrée figure 2 et une position dépliée (B) ou position haute, telle qu'illustrée figures la et 3. The hinge elements (6) are articulated at their ends upper on the lower face of the cursor (5) and at their end lower on the upper end of the base (4), respectively at upper and lower articulation points (9a, 9b). They allow the slider (5) to slide along the axis of revolution (ZZ '), inside the pivoting body (2) between a folded position (A) or low position, illustrated in Figure 2 and an unfolded position (B) or high position, as as illustrated in Figures la and 3.
Selon l'invention, le mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) est réalisé de manière à ce qu'en position repliée (A), appelée également position basse, les éléments de charnières (6) soient disposés au moins en partie en dessous du plan horizontal (H) qui contient le point d'articulation inférieur (9b) desdits éléments charnières (6) sur l'embase (4).According to the invention, the rotary case mechanism (1) is made of so that in the folded position (A), also called position low, the hinge elements (6) are arranged at least in part below the horizontal plane (H) which contains the articulation point lower (9b) of said hinge elements (6) on the base (4).
Selon le mode de réalisation préféré du mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) ; lorsqu'ils sont en position repliée (A) ou position basse, les éléments de charnières (6) sont disposés entièrement en dessous du point d'articulation inférieur (9b). Pour ce faire, l'embase (4) est munie à son extrémité supérieure d'une enceinte ou logement (10), dans laquelle sont destinées à se positionner les éléments de charnières, ladite enceinte s'étendant en dessous du point d'articulation inférieur (9b). Cette enceinte (10) peut avantageusement être obtenue en réalisant un alésage (11) de l'embase (4) sur la longueur de celle-ci.According to the preferred embodiment of the holster mechanism turning (1); when in the stowed position (A) or the low position, the hinge elements (6) are arranged entirely below the lower articulation point (9b). To do this, the base (4) is provided with its upper end of an enclosure or housing (10), in which are intended to position the hinge elements, said enclosure extending below the lower point of articulation (9b). This enclosure (10) can advantageously be obtained by making a bore (11) of the base (4) over the length thereof.
Selon le mode de réalisation préféré du mécanisme d'étui tournant (1), selon l'invention, la pièce principale (1) comporte deux éléments de charnières ou nervures (6a, 6b) articulés entre eux en un point d'articulation intermédiaire (9c). Le premier élément ou élément inférieur (6b) est articulé sur le sommet de l'embase (4) au point d'articulation inférieur (9b) et l'élément supérieur (6a) est articulé sur la face inférieure (13) du fond (5b) du curseur (5). Les différentes articulations (9a, 9b, 9c) sont avantageusement obtenues, de manière connue en soi, par des rétrécissements ou étranglements des portions de paroi constituant les éléments charnières (6a, 6b). Notons que selon les différents modes de réalisation du mécanisme d'étui tournant selon l'invention, les pièces le composant sont avantageusement réalisées en matière plastique à l'aide d'un procédé d'injection par exemple.According to the preferred embodiment of the holster mechanism rotating (1), according to the invention, the main part (1) comprises two hinge elements or ribs (6a, 6b) articulated together in a intermediate articulation point (9c). The first element or element lower (6b) is articulated on the top of the base (4) at the point articulation (9b) and the upper element (6a) is articulated on the lower face (13) of the bottom (5b) of the cursor (5). The different joints (9a, 9b, 9c) are advantageously obtained, so known per se, by narrowing or constriction of the portions of wall constituting the hinge elements (6a, 6b). Note that according to different embodiments of the rotating case mechanism according to the invention, the parts making it up are advantageously made of plastic material using an injection process for example.
Comme le montrent les figures 1b et 3, les éléments de charnières supérieurs et inférieurs sont disposés dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre, lorsque le mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) est en position dépliée ou position haute (B). Notons que les points d'articulation supérieur (9a) et inférieur (9b) sont disposés avantageusement de part et d'autre d'un plan longitudinal médian contenant l'axe de révolution (ZZ') du mécanisme. Il va de soi que la configuration des éléments de charnières pourrait être différente sans pour autant sortir du champ de protection de l'invention.As shown in Figures 1b and 3, the hinge elements upper and lower are arranged in the extension one of the other, when the rotating case mechanism (1) is in the unfolded position or high position (B). Note that the upper articulation points (9a) and lower (9b) are advantageously arranged on either side of a median longitudinal plane containing the axis of revolution (ZZ ') of the mechanism. It goes without saying that the configuration of the hinge elements could be different without going outside the protective field of the invention.
Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, l'ensemble des éléments de charnières (6a, 6b) vient se loger sous le point d'articulation inférieur (9b) lorsque le mécanisme se trouve en position basse (A). L'élément de charnières inférieur (6b) vient préférentiellement se positionner de manière sensiblement verticale, parallèlement à la paroi de l'alésage (11) à l'aplomb du point d'articulation inférieur (9b), l'élément de charnières supérieure (6a) étant légèrement incliné comme le montre la figure 5 entre le point d'articulation intermédiaire (9c) et le point d'articulation supérieur (9a) situé légèrement au-dessus dudit point intermédiaire (9c).According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the assembly hinge elements (6a, 6b) are housed under the point lower joint (9b) when the mechanism is in position low (A). The lower hinge element (6b) preferably comes position themselves substantially vertically, parallel to the wall of the bore (11) perpendicular to the lower articulation point (9b), the upper hinge element (6a) being slightly inclined as shown in Figure 5 between the intermediate articulation point (9c) and the upper articulation point (9a) located slightly above said point intermediate (9c).
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, lorsque le mécanisme d'étui tournant est en position basse ou repliée (A), une partie du curseur (5) destiné à recevoir le produit est disposée dans le logement (10) de l'embase (4) avantageusement en dessous du plan horizontal (H), qui contient le point d'articulation inférieur (9b). Notons toutefois que selon une variante d'exécution, ledit point d'articulation inférieur pourrait être situé en dessous du sommet de l'embase à l'intérieur du logement de ladite embase.According to the illustrated embodiment, when the holster mechanism turn is in the down or folded position (A), part of the slider (5) intended to receive the product is arranged in the housing (10) of the base (4) advantageously below the horizontal plane (H), which contains the lower articulation point (9b). Note however that according to an alternative embodiment, said lower articulation point could be located below the top of the base inside the housing of said base.
Le curseur (5) est de manière connue en soi, constitué par une portion de tube (5a) obturée à son extrémité inférieure par une paroi circulaire ou fond (5b). Il présente avantageusement un décrochement ou encoche de dégagement (12) dans sa partie inférieure, c'est à dire un évidement d'une partie de la portion de tube périphérique (5a) et du fond (5b) tel que le montre la figure 4, ladite encoche étant destinée à faciliter son positionnement à l'intérieur de l'alésage (11) de l'embase (4).The cursor (5) is in a manner known per se, consisting of a portion of tube (5a) closed at its lower end by a wall circular or bottom (5b). It advantageously exhibits a setback or release notch (12) in its lower part, i.e. a recess of part of the portion of peripheral tube (5a) and of bottom (5b) as shown in FIG. 4, said notch being intended to facilitate its positioning inside the bore (11) of the base (4).
En effet, cette encoche de dégagement (12) est positionnée sur le curseur (5) de la pièce principale (2) dans sa partie inférieure, de manière à ce que lorsque ladite partie se positionne dans le logement (10) de l'embase (4), elle ne soit pas gênée par la présence de l'élément de charnières inférieur (6b), celui-ci venant se positionner dans l'encoche ainsi prévue comme le montre la figure 5. Indeed, this release notch (12) is positioned on the slider (5) of the main part (2) in its lower part, so that when said part is positioned in the housing (10) of the base (4), it is not hampered by the presence of the element of lower hinges (6b), the latter being positioned in the notch thus provided as shown in FIG. 5.
Il est important de noter que lorsque le mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) est en position basse ou repliée, le point d'articulation supérieur (9a) entre le curseur (5) et les éléments de charnières (6, 6a, 6b) se situe en dessous du point d'articulation inférieur (9b) entre lesdits éléments et l'embase (4).It is important to note that when the holster mechanism turning (1) is in the low or folded position, the articulation point upper (9a) between the slider (5) and the hinge elements (6, 6a, 6b) is located below the lower point of articulation (9b) between said elements and the base (4).
De plus, les éléments de charnières (6, 6a, 6b) du mécanisme d'étui tournant (1) comportent avantageusement un orifice de remplissage (15) réalisé en deux parties, une partie sur chacun des éléments de charnières (6a, 6b), comme le montrent les figures 5 et 6. Ledit orifice (15), ainsi que l'évidement (12) du fond (5b) du curseur sont destinés à permettre le remplissage en produit dudit curseur par l'arrière du mécanisme, c'est à dire au travers de l'alésage (11) de l'embase (4).In addition, the hinge elements (6, 6a, 6b) of the mechanism of rotating case (1) advantageously comprise an orifice filling (15) made in two parts, one part on each of hinge elements (6a, 6b), as shown in Figures 5 and 6. Said opening (15), as well as the recess (12) in the bottom (5b) of the cursor are intended to allow the filling of said cursor with product from the rear of the mechanism, that is to say through the bore (11) of the base (4).
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, le corps pivotant (2) est destiné à être clipé sur l'embase (4) de la pièce principale (3), ladite embase présentant à son extrémité supérieure, une rainure de clipage (14). Notons que cette rainure (14) permet de réaliser l'articulation en rotation entre la pièce principale (3) et le corps pivotant (2), il va de soi que le montage et l'articulation entre le corps pivotant et l'embase pourraient être obtenus de manière différente, sans la rainure de clipage par exemple, sans pour autant sortir du champs de protection de l'invention. Par ailleurs, notons que le corps pivotant (2) comporte deux rainures hélicoïdales (8a, 8b) situées dans sa paroi périphérique interne, de manière diamétralement opposées. Ces rainures sont destinées à coopérer avec deux tétons de guidage (7a, 7b) disposés, de manière diamétralement opposée, sur la portion de tube (5a) formant le curseur (5) sensiblement au niveau de l'extrémité supérieure de celui-ci comme le montre la figure 7a. Il va de soi que la configuration des moyens de coopération entre les deux pièces complémentaires, à savoir, la pièce principale et le corps pivotant pourrait être différente et ne présenter qu'une rainure et un téton par exemple, sans pour autant sortir du champ de protection de l'invention.According to the illustrated embodiment, the pivoting body (2) is intended to be clipped onto the base (4) of the main part (3), said base having at its upper end a clipping groove (14). Note that this groove (14) makes it possible to produce the articulation in rotation between the main part (3) and the pivoting body (2), it goes without saying that the mounting and articulation between the pivoting body and the base could be obtained differently, without the clipping groove for example, without leaving the protective field of the invention. Furthermore, note that the pivoting body (2) has two helical grooves (8a, 8b) located in its internal peripheral wall, diametrically opposite. These grooves are intended for cooperate with two guide pins (7a, 7b) arranged so diametrically opposite, on the portion of tube (5a) forming the cursor (5) substantially at the upper end thereof as the shows figure 7a. It goes without saying that the configuration of the means of cooperation between the two complementary pieces, namely, the piece main and the pivoting body could be different and not present that a groove and a nipple for example, without leaving the field protection of the invention.
Selon une variante d'exécution du premier mode de réalisation précédemment décrit où les pièces similaires par leur fonction portent les mêmes références, le mécanisme d'étui tournant présente des moyens d'arrêt (20a, 20b, 20c, 21a, 21b, 21c) destinés à empêcher le mouvement du curseur (5) au delà de ses positions extrêmes repliée et déployée. Ces moyens d'arrêt sont constitués par la coopération entre des surfaces de butée (20a, 20b, 20c) du corps pivotant et des surfaces d'appui (21a, 21b, 21c) du curseur (5) de la pièce principale (3).According to an alternative embodiment of the first embodiment previously described where parts similar in function carry the same references, the rotating case mechanism has means stop (20a, 20b, 20c, 21a, 21b, 21c) to prevent movement of the cursor (5) beyond its extreme folded and deployed positions. These stop means are formed by the cooperation between surfaces of stop (20a, 20b, 20c) of the pivoting body and the bearing surfaces (21a, 21b, 21c) of the cursor (5) of the main part (3).
Les surfaces d'appui (21a, 21b, 21c) sont avantageusement disposées sur les tétons de guidage (7a, 7b) du curseur tandis que les surfaces de butée (20a, 20b, 20c) sont disposées aux extrémités respectives des rainures internes hélicoïdales (8a, 8b) du corps pivotant. Selon cette variante d'exécution, les moyens d'arrêts comportent :
- des surfaces d'appui et de butée latérales (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b) destinés à empêcher la rotation respective entre le corps pivotant (2) et le curseur (5).
- des surfaces d'appui et de butée longitudinales (20c, 21c) qui empêchent tout mouvement longitudinal en position dépliée entre le curseur et le corps pivotant.
- lateral bearing and abutment surfaces (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b) intended to prevent the respective rotation between the pivoting body (2) and the slider (5).
- longitudinal bearing and abutment surfaces (20c, 21c) which prevent any longitudinal movement in the unfolded position between the slider and the pivoting body.
Les surfaces d'appuis et de butée latérales (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b) présentent avantageusement un angle (E, F) non nul avec le rayon respectif du corps pivotant ou du curseur comme le montrent les figures 12c, 14a et 14c. Les surfaces d'appuis (20a, 20b) sont avantageusement formées par les bords latéraux des tétons de guidage (7a, 7b) qui sont biseautés pour venir se verrouiller sur les surfaces de butée (21a, 21b) des extrémités des rainures (8a, 8b) à la manière de harpons pour empêcher la sortie des tétons de leurs rainures lorsque le corps pivotant est forcé en rotation. Selon la variante d'exécution illustrée figure 12b et 14b, les surfaces d'appuis et de butée longitudinales (20c, 21c) présentent un angle (G) non nul avec le plan transversal horizontal. Il va de soi que les surfaces de butée et d'appui pourraient présenter une configuration différente et n'être plus situées sur les tétons de guidage et les rainures sans pour autant sortir du champs de protection de l'invention.Lateral support and abutment surfaces (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b) advantageously have a non-zero angle (E, F) with the radius respective pivoting body or slider as shown in the figures 12c, 14a and 14c. The support surfaces (20a, 20b) are advantageously formed by the lateral edges of the guide pins (7a, 7b) which are bevelled to lock onto the abutment surfaces (21a, 21b) of the ends of the grooves (8a, 8b) in the manner of harpoons to prevent the exit of the nipples from their grooves when the pivoting body is forced into rotation. According to the variant illustrated in FIGS. 12b and 14b, the longitudinal bearing and abutment surfaces (20c, 21c) have an angle (G) not zero with the horizontal transverse plane. It goes without saying that abutment and bearing surfaces could have a configuration different and no longer be located on the guide pins and grooves without departing from the protective fields of the invention.
Selon l'invention et afin de permettre un agencement optimal des éléments de charnière (6a, 6b) dans le logement (10) de l'embase (4) lorsque le mécanisme se retrouve en position repliée comme le montre la figure 10a, l'élément de charnière inférieure (6b) présente un profil transversal arrondi ou galbé tel qu'illustré figure 11b. Selon la variante d'exécution illustrée figures 10a à 11b, les deux éléments de charnières (6a, 6b) ont un profil transversal galbé ; de plus lorsque le curseur se trouve en position basse, on peut noter que l'élément de charnière supérieur (6a) est disposé sensiblement dans un plan transversal horizontal, dans un logement (24) prévu dans la paroi inférieure (5b) du curseur (5) tandis que l'élément de charnière inférieure (6b) vient se positionner dans l'encoche de dégagement (12) du curseur dans une position verticale.According to the invention and in order to allow an optimal arrangement of the hinge elements (6a, 6b) in the housing (10) of the base (4) when the mechanism is in the folded position as shown FIG. 10a, the lower hinge element (6b) has a profile transverse rounded or curved as illustrated in Figure 11b. Depending on the variant shown in Figures 10a to 11b, the two hinge elements (6a, 6b) have a curved transverse profile; more when the cursor is found in the low position, it can be noted that the hinge element upper (6a) is arranged substantially in a transverse plane horizontal, in a housing (24) provided in the lower wall (5b) of the slider (5) while the lower hinge element (6b) comes position in the clearance notch (12) of the cursor in a vertical position.
Notons que l'élément de charnière inférieure (6b) présente un diamètre extérieur égal au jeu près au diamètre intérieur de l'alésage (11) de l'embase (4) tandis que l'élément de charnière supérieure (6a) présente un diamètre extérieur et des dimensions qui permettent son passage dans le diamètre intérieur de la collerette de l'embase. Notons que le profil arrondi ou galbé des éléments de charnière constitue un moyen de rigidification des éléments de charnière destinés à leur conférer une plus grande résistance en torsion.Note that the lower hinge element (6b) has a outside diameter equal to the clearance close to the inside diameter of the bore (11) of the base (4) while the upper hinge element (6a) has an outside diameter and dimensions that allow its passage in the inside diameter of the collar of the base. note that the rounded or curved profile of the hinge elements constitutes a means of stiffening the hinge elements intended for their provide greater torsional strength.
Selon l'invention, la pièce principale (3) est avantageusement réalisée en matière plastique, ladite matière étant choisie entre les polyoléfines tel que le polypropylène ou le polyéthylène et les acétaliques tel que le polyoxyméthylène. Il va de soi que l'on pourrait utiliser d'autres matériaux ou d'autres matières plastiques pour réaliser le mécanisme d'étui tournant de l'invention.According to the invention, the main part (3) is advantageously made of plastic, said material being chosen between polyolefins such as polypropylene or polyethylene and the acetalics such as polyoxymethylene. It goes without saying that we could use other materials or other plastics to make the rotating case mechanism of the invention.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemples, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques, dans le cadre des présentes revendications.Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes of realization described and represented as examples, but it includes also all technical equivalents, in the context of the present claims.
