Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a capsule intended to equip a container used commonly used for the packaging of certain products, in particular cosmetics (shampoos, after shampoos, etc.) or care products (body milks, moisturizers, sunscreens, etc.) according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • cosmetics shampoos, after shampoos, etc.
  • care products body milks, moisturizers, sunscreens, etc.
  • such products are packaged in walled containers deformable, in particular in polypropylene or polyethylene, and surmounted by a neck with a free edge defining an opening.
  • a capsule comprising a body slammed on the neck of the container.
  • a wall transverse of the body is crossed by an outlet, in communication with the container.
  • the capsule also includes a cover hinged on the body via a so-called “spring effect” joint.
  • the cover includes a portion, in particular in the form of a suitable pin, in the closed position of the cover, to come in engagement with the exit orifice of the capsule to close it so waterproof.
  • a spring effect joint designates a joint allowing the passage of the cover from a first position, called “closing” to a second position called “maximum opening”, by pivoting around an axis (defined for example by a film hinge), the transition from the first position to the second, and / or conversely, accompanied by passing through an intermediate position, of unstable equilibrium in which the elastic deformation (bending, compression, stretching, etc.) of at least part of the capsule, in particular of a connection connecting the body of the capsule to the cover, passes through a maximum value.
  • the crossing of this unstable equilibrium position, at the opening and / or at the closure results from an elastic restoring force generated by the (or them) element (s) deformed elastically, in particular by the connecting element connecting the body to cover.
  • the connecting element can be under shape of a kneepad, consisting of a bend whose opening is maximum in passing through said intermediate position.
  • Another type of effect joint spring in which the connecting element consists of a deforming strip in elongation, is described in patent EP 0 147 423.
  • Yet another type articulation with spring effect is described in patent EP 0 56 469.
  • the connecting elements do not deform little or not at all. It’s the capsule body, and / or the cover which deforms passing through the unstable equilibrium position.
  • a valve configured so as to move apart under the pressure of the product inside the container, to authorize the distribution of the product, and to return to its closed position when the pressure stops.
  • a valve allows prevent (at least during a normal container overturning period) the liquid in the container will drain by gravity.
  • it allows better control the distribution of the product, in response to the deformation of the walls of the container.
  • such a valve must close sufficiently to prevent liquid (especially water) from entering the container, from outside.
  • such a valve can allow air to enter the interior of the container, especially after each distribution, to compensate for the volume of product distributed.
  • Such a valve must be sufficiently flexible and flexible to allow a easy product distribution.
  • the material must also withstand multiple bends in one direction and in the other, with each distribution of the product.
  • the joint connecting the valve to the body must not break after some uses. She must also keep her ability to return elastically in the closed position after each use, throughout the entire Product life.
  • the material flexibility requirements are even larger when the valve must, returning to its closed position, allow an air intake inside the container. Indeed, the valve is subjected to deflections also repeated, but at a maximum angle which may be more important.
  • a first solution consists in molding the capsule equipped with a joint at spring effect by means of a rigid material, in particular polypropylene, and make the closing valve of the outlet orifice, in an elastomeric material.
  • the closing valve is made of an identical material to the material forming the body of the capsule, and is molded in one piece with this last.
  • the material used is of relatively low rigidity, so that meet the requirements for proper operation of the valve.
  • the cover is made, meanwhile, separate from the body of the capsule, and is mounted tightly or screwed on the container. In other words, the articulation function spring effect is removed.
  • this solution is not satisfactory from the point of view of cost.
  • the cover not hinged on the body of the capsule, can be lost if do not take care to put it back immediately after each use.
  • the snap-fastening of such a capsule, produced in relatively low stiffness material can be problematic for strength that he authorizes.
  • a third solution it has been proposed to produce the capsule in a single piece, with a cover hinged to a body by means of an effect hinge spring.
  • the capsule is made of a rigid material meeting the requirements required for the proper functioning of the joint.
  • no valve is disposed in the outlet.
  • It is yet another object of the invention to produce a capsule comprising a spring effect articulation, and fitted with a selective closing valve, opening in response to the pressure inside the container, and allowing a air intake inside the container, especially after each dispensing.
  • a capsule intended for equip a container said capsule comprising a) a body comprising means capable of ensuring the mounting of the capsule on the container, said body being crossed by an outlet; b) a shut-off valve mounted in said orifice outlet, and able to flex in response to pressure exerted by the product at the interior of the container so as to clear the outlet orifice for the distribution of the product, and to return to its initial position when the pressure ceases ; and c) a cover mounted on the body by means of an effect articulation spring, and intended to removably cover said outlet orifice, for sealing the container, the valve being obtained by molding with the body, from a material identical to that forming the effect joint spring.
  • a spring-effect articulation means a articulation allowing the passage of the cover from a first position, called “de closing "at a second position called” maximum opening ", pivoting around an axis (defined for example by a film hinge), the passage of the first position to the second, and / or vice versa, accompanied by the passage by a intermediate position, of unstable equilibrium, in which the elastic deformation (flexion, compression, stretching, etc.) of at least part of the capsule, in particular a connecting element connecting the body of the capsule to the cover, goes through a maximum value. Crossing this position of equilibrium unstable, upon opening and / or closing, results from an elastic restoring force generated by the elastically deformed element (s), in particular by the connecting element connecting the body to the cover.
  • the connecting strip can, as described in the patent US-A-4,386,714, to be produced in the form of a kneepad.
  • the valve is configured so that, returning to said position initial, it allows an air intake inside the container so as to compensate for the volume of product distributed. So after each distribution, in resuming its initial position, the valve can go slightly beyond its position closing, so as to let air pass in the direction of the container. AT pressure balance it returns to its closed position of the outlet. This re-entering movement of the closing valve is however not necessary, in function in particular of the greater or lesser space existing between the edge device of the valve and the edge delimiting the outlet orifice.
  • the distance between the peripheral edge of the valve and the edge interior defining the outlet orifice is of the order of 0.2 mm.
  • the capsule is preferably obtained by molding a polypropylene, homopolymer or copolymer.
  • the closing valve is connected to the body of the capsule by the minus a bridge of material forming a hinge. More preferably still, the valve of closure is connected to the body of the capsule by two bridges of material arranged at non-zero distance from each other.
  • the outlet orifice is formed at the bottom of a recess delimited by the body, said recess, on the side of the valve, opposite to that adjacent to the hinge bridge (s) having a profile which, in moving away from the outlet orifice, converges, preferably gradually, in direction of an axis of the latter.
  • a profile ensures flow substantially vertical to the orifice, of the product dispensed.
  • means in particular in the form of a pin, can be expected to come into engagement with the recess in which is formed the outlet orifice, so as to perfect the tightness to the closure, overall.
  • the mounting means are means able to cooperate with corresponding means of the container so as to allow the attachment of the capsule to the container by snap-fastening or by screwing. Snap-fastening is however a preferred solution.
  • an assembly is also produced for the packaging and distribution of a product, in particular cosmetic, comprising a container containing the product, said container having an edge free delimiting an opening equipped with a capsule according to the invention.
  • the container has walls capable of deforming in response to a pressure exerted perpendicular to their surface and to resume their shape initial when the pressure stops.
  • a container can be made in polypropylene or polyethylene.
  • Such an assembly is particularly suitable for packaging and distribution of a cosmetic product, in particular a shampoo, a conditioner, a styling gel, a milk, or a care product.
  • a cosmetic product in particular a shampoo, a conditioner, a styling gel, a milk, or a care product.
  • the assembly 100 on which the capsule 1 according to the invention is mounted consists of a bottle 101, for example, of polyethylene or polypropylene.
  • the bottle 101 has a body 102 closed by a bottom 103.
