Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an airtight container, in particular for cosmetic products and similar in powder with highly volatile components.
  • Said container is a container commonly used in the health and beauty sector, of the type comprising an element to contain the cosmetic product and a lid to close said element.
  • the general aim of this invention is to resolve the above-mentioned technical problems in an extremely simple, economical and particularly functional manner.
  • the airtight container subject of this invention is generally indicated with 10 and, in the example of the first embodiment illustrated in figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, according to the invention, it is of a cylindrical shape, also commonly called stick.
  • the container 10 comprises a lid 11, which covers an element containing the cosmetic product, particularly in powder, composed of a measuring device 12 and a base 13 which encloses it.
  • the lid 11 is made up of a cylindrical casing 20, shaped like a glass, on the bottom of which a sealing device is placed composed of a cylindrical body 21 in soft material, generally sponge-like, elastically deformable, above which a disk in closed-cell material 22 is placed, such as to prevent evaporation of the volatile substances generally present in the cosmetic powders.
  • the measuring device 12 is composed of a cylindrical casing, shaped like a glass, on the bottom of which there are one or more dosage holes 23. On said perforated surface, on the outside of the casing, there is a self-adhesive label 24, generally provided with a non-adhesive tab 25.
  • the measuring device 12 can air-tightly engage the base 13 by means of a snap fit, produced by a catch for example in position 26 between a circumferential groove made on the outside of the measuring device 12 and a corresponding circumferential projection made on the inside of the base 13.
  • the base 13 is also composed of a cylindrical casing, shaped like a glass, provided internally with a circumferential seat 27 to facilitate centring of the open end of the measuring device 12.
  • the base 13 has for example two circumferential projections 28, which snap into the corresponding internal circumferential grooves 29 made in the open side of the lid 11. In this way, rapid and airtight sealing is guaranteed between the lid 11 and the containing element, by means of the elastic deformation which is created in the lid 11 at the moment in which the container is closed.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a plan view from above of the product-containing element, provided with a self-adhesive label 24, in this case transparent.
  • the measuring device 12 is filled with the cosmetic product, after making sure that the perforated end has been closed with the self-adhesive label 24, and then the open part of the measuring device 12 is filled. Once filled, the measuring device 12 is closed by pressing on to the base 13: this operation is facilitated by the presence of the circumferential seat 27 which helps centring between the measuring device 12 and the base 13; this is illustrated in figure 4, where the self-adhesive label 24 is shown in an exploded view.
  • the lid 11 brings about the airtight closure of the cosmetic product, in particular in powder, inside the containing element.
  • the lid 11 brings about the airtight closure of the cosmetic product in powder also thanks to the sealing device formed by the cylindrical body 21 and the disk in closed-cell material 22.
  • the height of the cylindrical body 21 is greater than the distance between the bottom of the lid 11 and the perforated surface of the measuring device 12, measured when the lid 11 is positioned to close the containing element: in this way, with the lid closed, the soft and elastic material is compressed inside the cylindrical body 21 which so causes the disk in closed-cell material 22 to be pressed against the perforated surface of the measuring device 12, so preventing the product from leaking out and guaranteeing airtight sealing.
  • This packing is illustrated in figure 1.
  • the coverings of the container and more precisely the casing 20, the measuring device 12 and the base 13 can be manufactured using moulded plastic material.
