Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of containers, in particular of the type aerosol containers, pump containers, vials, or tubes, as used commonly, especially for the packaging of cosmetic products, such than hair products (hairsprays, styling foams, gels, shampoos, etc.). More specifically, the invention relates to a device capable of reducing the risk such containers fall, when they are placed upright on a support, including plan.
- Such a device when produced by injection, requires having the injection point located on the periphery of the object, that is to say substantially offset by relation to the geometric center of the suction cup device. Therefore, it Opposite the injection point, a weld line results, which line of welding constitutes a zone of weakness.
- the problem is all the more critical when the material forming the device is a flexible material, and when the device is intended to work under constant mechanical stress (in particular by elastic clamping).
- a solution to the problem mentioned above consists in making the device in the form of a cylindrical skirt of which a first end is open, and of which a second end, opposite the first, has a closed bottom. Arises then the problem of demolding the device automatically, the latter forming suction cup effect on the mold core, to the point that it is difficult to separate it from the core.
- Document DE 31 44 061 A1 describes a tube, in particular of a cosmetic product the plug of which is configured so as to form a suction cup. Such a solution forces the container to be immobilized upside down, which for many of products, is not desirable. In addition, essentially arises the same problem than that mentioned with reference to document US-A-2,908,473.
- Document US-A-2 968 888 describes a support for objects such as soaps or drinks, comprising a part intended to receive said object, and a suction cup part.
- the suction cup is formed in its entirety by a part of the support.
- the support acts as a suction cup, regardless of the presence or absence of the object it is intended to receive.
- support handling problems especially on the production lines or industrial packaging.
- the suction cup tends to adhere on any surface it meets.
- the solid surface forming a suction cup also tending to adhere to the mold surface.
- a device for reversibly immobilize a container, in particular a cosmetic product, on a support (S) said device comprising a portion for mounting the device on the container and a perforated bottom including an edge, in particular peripheral, forms a lip capable of being applied in a sealed manner on the support (S), so as, in cooperation with a portion of the container, to form a suction cup on the support (S), and immobilize the container reversibly on said support (S), said openwork bottom defining at least one opening, each of said openings extending away from the geometric center of said background.
- the geometric center means the geometric center or barycenter of the section transverse of the bottom of the device.
- a bottom is of section circular.
- the "suction cup” effect designates the depression generated inside a volume whose a reduction is caused, in particular by compression, thus driving out a corresponding air volume, which, in particular by elastic return of the material forming the walls which delimit it at least in part, tends to resume its state initial in a waterproof universe.
- the demolding of the device is not a problem. Indeed, it is only when the device is mounted on the container that it is able to form a suction cup.
- the injection of the material constituting the device can be done via said geometric center, which allows the material, when injected into the mold, to distribute uniformly and simultaneously all around the injection site without forming weld line subject to break when the device is under mechanical stress permed.
- the mounting of the device on the container for which it is intended is at the both simple and effective. It does not require any special tool.
- the assembly of the device on the container is reversible, which allows successive use of the same device for multiple containers.
- the adjustment of the different device parameters depends to a large extent on the dimensions of the container to be fitted, the surface condition of its outer walls, the solidity required for hanging of the container on the support. Still other elements can be taken into account. consideration for the determination of these performance parameters.
- the mounting portion comprises a sleeve of which a free edge delimits an opening through which the device is intended to be mounted on the container, one end of the sleeve opposite the free edge forming said perforated bottom. Maintaining the device on the container can be obtained by tightening, in particular elastic, the sleeve on the container.
- the openwork bottom delimits at least two openings.
- the presence of at least two openings creates a "symmetry" around the geometric center. When the latter is used as an injection point, the material is distributed much more evenly, which improves the mechanical resistance of the device.
- said sleeve is able to grip, in particular by tightening elastic, the container over part of its axial height. Typically, such height is of the order of a few centimeters.
- the sleeve could be glued, snapped or screwed onto the container.
- the bottom delimits three separate openings by three legs or bridges of material spaced regularly, and arranged at 120 ° relative to each other.
- the bottom delimits four separate openings by four legs or bridges of material spaced regularly, and arranged at 90 ° to each other. The more the number of legs or bridges of material the greater the risk of generating lines of weakness, the lower the risk.
- the device is made at least partly of a material elastomeric whose hardness is between 20 Shore A and 40 Shore D, and preferably between 40 Shore A and 75 Shore A, and the elasticity between 0.5 to 5 MPa, and preferably 0.8 to 2 MPa (tensile stress at 100% elongation).
- a material elastomeric whose hardness is between 20 Shore A and 40 Shore D, and preferably between 40 Shore A and 75 Shore A, and the elasticity between 0.5 to 5 MPa, and preferably 0.8 to 2 MPa (tensile stress at 100% elongation).
- said elastomeric material is a mixture formed in part of a metallocene catalysis polyethylene, in particular a polyethylene of very low density catalysis.
- a mixture formed from such a material in combination with a other base material, examples of which will be given below, allows a automatic demolding of the device.
- the hardness and elasticity of the material base, with which the metallocene catalysis polyethylene is mixed, are not significantly altered, so that the functionality of the device molding remains as good.
- the tear resistance is improved significantly compared to that of the base material (s).
- the appearance properties of the base material in particular its transparency or color, are unchanged.
- said mixture contains from 5 to 30% of said catalyzed polyethylene metallocene, and preferably from 10 to 20%.
- a very low density catalysis polyethylene 902
- EXACT TM very low density catalysis polyethylene
- the container comprises a body, one end of which ends by a bottom, the portion of the container suitable, in combination with the device, for form a suction cup, consisting of all or part of said bottom of the container.
- the part of the container capable, in combination with the immobilizer, to form a suction cup is constituted all or part of the plug.
- the immobilization device is formed in one piece, made in the same elastomeric material, and obtained by injection of said material elastomeric.
- the sealing lip when it is applied to the support (S), has an outside diameter greater than or equal to the outside diameter of the body of the container. This ensures better stability of the container.
- the bottom of the device has a profile, in particular concave, capable of follow the profile of the bottom of the container.
- a concave bottom corresponds to a common configuration for aerosol containers, in particular for reasons of resistance to pressure inside the container.
- a container is also produced, especially a cosmetic product, equipped with a suction cup device according to the invention.
- a container comprises a body forming a reservoir for said product, and one end of which is closed by a bottom, said bottom, in cooperation with the device, being able to form a suction cup on a support (S).
- Such a container can be formed of a tube, a bottle, a pump container, or an aerosol container, in particular for hair product.
- the resulting part shows a perfect distribution of the material, and is free from brittle lines subject to rupture when the part is under stress mechanical.
- FIG 2 there is shown an aerosol container 1 resting on a flat surface S, including a worktop in a hair salon.
- Container 1 includes a cylindrical body 2, surmounted by a valve 3.
- the valve is equipped a push button 4, able to allow its actuation and the diffusion of the produced through, in particular, an outlet nozzle.
- the product can be a lacquer styling or spray.
- the end of the container 1, opposite the valve 3, is closed by an attached base 5 which, for reasons of resistance to pressure prevailing inside the container, is concave in shape.
- the container can be made in thermoplastic material, in particular in PET or in metal, in particular in aluminum or tinplate.
- a device is mounted on the bottom of the container invention 10, the function of which is, as will now be seen in detail, to prevent the container 1 from spilling on the surface S.
- the device will now be described in detail with reference to FIG. 1, which shows the assembly of FIG. 2 in an exploded manner, as well as with reference to Figure 3.
- the device 10 is an element obtained by injecting a material including 20% EXACT TM and 80% Santoprene TM.
- the device is opaque, white in color.
- the device is in the form of a cylindrical sleeve of revolution 11, one end of which has a free edge 12 delimiting an opening 13 so as to allow the mounting of the container 10 of the manner illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the internal diameter of the sleeve 11 is, in the absence of stress, slightly lower (of the order of 1 to several mm in material elasticity) to the outside diameter of the container 1 of so as to allow a tight fitting of the sleeve 11 on the body 2 of the container 1.
- the thickness of the walls of the device 10 is approximately 1 mm.
- the end of the sleeve, opposite the end of the opening 13 has a bottom 14 of circular cross section.
- the bottom 14 has an annular portion 15, of concave profile, similar to the profile of the bottom 5 of the container 1, and intended, in position mounted on the container, to match the profile of an annular part correspondent of the bottom 5, with which it comes in intimate engagement.
- AT the interior of the annular portion 15 is formed a cross part 16, constituted four legs 17, 18, 19, 20, arranged at 90 ° to each other, and delimiting four openings 21, 22, 23, 24.
- the geometric center of the bottom 14 is located at the junction 25 of the four legs 17-20, and, therefore, is at a distance from the openings 21-24.
- the annular element 15 forms at its periphery an annular sealing lip 26, larger in diameter (for example, about 5 mm) than the outside diameter of the sleeve 11.
- a surface 27 of the sealing lip 26 is intended to be tightly applied to the support S.
- the surface 27 of the lip 26 forms a curvature of the same orientation as the curvature formed by the annular portion 15 from the bottom 14.
- the sealing lip 27 is separated from the internal annular wall 15 by an intermediate annular portion 28, forming a U-shaped groove, intended to receive the peripheral edge of the container 1.
- the suction cup device 10 appears in more detail in Figures 1 and 3. In these figures, the device 10 is not mounted on a container.
- the device 10 is mounted on the container 1 by inserting the bottom of the container 1 through the opening 13 of the sleeve 11, and this, until the peripheral edge of the container 1 comes into engagement in the bottom of the groove in U, 28 of the device 10.
- a tongue (not shown) can extend the free edge 12 of the sleeve 11 so as to form a grip zone to facilitate the mounting the device 10 on the container 1.
- the sleeve 11 is slightly tightening on the body 2 of the container. The tightening achieved by the sleeve 11 on the body 2 of the container, ensures good hold of the device 10 on the container 1.
- the operator After mounting the device 10 on the container 1, the operator supports the surface 27 on the support S, thus causing deformation of the lip sealing 26, and the expulsion of a corresponding volume of air.
- the deformed portion of the lip 26 tends to return to its initial shape, despite of the seal prevailing inside the volume delimited by the support S, the bottom 14 of the device 10, and the central part of the bottom 5 of the container 1. This creates a depression inside said volume, which depression generates the suction effect suitable for reversibly immobilizing the container 1 on the support S.
- the operator grasps it by the body 2, and rotates it by direction of the support S.
- the behavior of the device 10 on the support being less than the clamping force of the device 10 on the container, the wall 27 of the lip 26 of the device 10 comes off the support.
- Device 10 remains integral with the container 1. The latter can then be used in a conventional manner.
