Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for packaging and distribution of a composition, containing at least one compound, the concentration varies over at least part of the range of use of the device.
  • the composition may be of very liquid to less liquid consistency, in particular in the form of a milk or an emulsion.
  • a composition comprising either a homogeneous phase or a plurality of separate phases.
  • each active has a determined concentration.
  • concentration values of each of the active ingredients are defined by the formulator once and for all. With each use, the distributed composition has the same concentrations.
  • US-A-4,893,729 describes a device for dispensing a composition of sun protection, comprising a container defining two compartments, one containing one lotion, and the other containing a sunscreen.
  • the two compartments are in communication with a mixing chamber via respective orifices.
  • the section of the orifice connecting the mixing chamber to the compartment containing the sun filter is adjustable to vary the degree of protection of the distributed solar composition.
  • Such a device is complex.
  • the variation of concentration of sunscreen of the composition distributed is done in stages discrete whose number is necessarily reduced. Therefore, the disadvantages and the limits of such a system are numerous.
  • packaging can in particular be obtained by molding in one piece, and allowing the distribution of a composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, containing at least one compound whose concentration must vary over at least a portion of the range use of the packaging.
  • a device for packaging and distribution of a composition (C1) in particular cosmetic, pharmaceutical or dermatological, comprising: a) a first container containing said composition (C1); b) suitable means, in response to a actuation command, to allow the distribution of a given volume of said composition (C1) c) a second container containing a makeup composition (C2); and d) suitable means, in response to the distribution of said given volume of composition (C1) from the first container, to allow the passage of a fraction of said makeup composition (C2) from the second container, to the first container.
  • composition (C2) In the case of a composition of low viscosity, the mixture of the fraction of make-up composition (C2) with composition (C1) contained in the first container, is done automatically. For a more viscous composition important, it may be necessary to shake the device in order to improve the homogenization of the composition to be distributed.
  • the suitable means in response to the distribution of said given volume of composition (C1) from the first container, to allow the passage of a fraction of said makeup composition (C2) from the second container, to the first container, consist of a siphon disposed between the first and second container.
  • the siphon constitutes a preferred embodiment of the invention in the since it authorizes the molding in one piece, of the device, without requiring additional valves, or other similar means, between the two containers.
  • the distribution of the composition (C1) from the first container takes place without air intake, that is to say, without the composition volume (C1) is not replaced by a corresponding volume of air.
  • This distribution without air intake creates a vacuum inside the first container, capable of causing the suction of a corresponding volume of said make-up composition (C2) from the second container, the "corresponding volume” being of such a volume that the pressure balance is restored.
  • an air intake member is provided to allow entry in the second container a volume of air corresponding substantially to the volume of distributed composition.
  • This return air element is necessary, in particular when the second container is in rigid or semi-rigid form.
  • the make-up composition is contained inside a flexible pocket, in particular in a metal / thermoplastic complex, the walls of which will be able sag on themselves in response to the loss of volume transferred from the second container to the first container. In the latter case, the air intake at the interior of the second container is not necessary.
  • the flexible pocket is contained in a rigid enclosure, it must be under pressure atmospheric so as to allow the deformation of the pocket.
  • composition C1 is distributed under pressure using in particular a pumping member, such as a manually actuated pump.
  • the container may have deformable walls elastically, and to be surmounted by a valve without air intake, i.e. unidirectional opening, the distribution of composition C1 being effected by pressing the walls of the first container so as to force the distribution of composition C1 through an outlet orifice on which the valve is mounted without air intake.
  • a corresponding volume of makeup composition is aspirated from the second container. This second solution is not preferred, especially when a metered dispensing precise is desired.
  • the concentration of a given compound (for example, a sunscreen) in the distributed composition corresponds to the initial concentration of the composition contained in the first container.
  • each volume of makeup added to the first container will help decrease gradually the concentration of said compound in the liquid composition distributed.
  • each volume of composition in the first container will help increase gradually the concentration of said compound in the liquid composition distributed.
  • the concentration of liquid composition contained in the first container will stabilize, and reach a final value at most equal to the concentration of the make-up composition in the second container.
  • the final value of the concentration of liquid composition contained in the first container will be all the closer of the concentration of the make-up composition than the volume of the second container is large compared to the volume of the first container.
  • said siphon-forming means comprise a conduit, one of which first end opens into the second container via a first orifice located near its bottom, and a second end of which opens into the first container via a second orifice located at a level lower than that of the first port.
  • said conduit has a portion located at a level higher than the maximum level of product in the second container.

  • Such means can be arranged at the level of the siphon conduit, and be in the form of a valve or valve.
  • the conduit of the siphon has at its highest point a portion on which it is oblong section.
  • a clamp positioned on the device, opposite said portion, crushes the conduit, so as to prevent any migration of a composition towards the other.
  • Such pliers can be connected to a cap intended for removably cover the dispensing head. So at the first use, by removing the cap, the user also removes the clamp, thus authorizing the communication of the two containers.
  • the siphon includes a first portion, in communication with the first container, and a second portion in communication with the second container, each of the first and second portions having one end free closed by a removable plug, the communication of the first and second portions being made, after removal of the plugs, at the time of first use of the device.
  • the free end of the first portion can be force-fitted into the free end of the second, or vice versa. Other means of connection can be expected.
  • the distribution means consist of a pump manual actuation, an outlet orifice of the first container being closed with sealingly by an inlet conduit of said manually actuated pump.

  • the pump 5 is surmounted by a dispensing head 6, comprising a portion axially movable 7, so as to allow the actuation of the pump 5, and the outlet of the composition to be dispensed via an orifice 8.
  • the dispensing head 6 includes a thread (not shown) capable of cooperating with a thread corresponding provided on the outside surface of the neck 3.
