Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a compact for the purpose of cosmetics.
  • the storage means are formed by a latex bulb fixed on the tank.
  • This latex bulb has a concave zone for storing the powder in the vicinity of the porous membrane, as well as a channel allowing the powder to migrate from said reservoir to said concave zone.
  • the present invention aims to provide a powder of the type mentioned above significantly less expensive than that of the prior art.
  • a powder compact of the type comprising a powder tank, a porous membrane stretched over said tank, means to store a portion of said powder in the vicinity of said membrane, these means communicating with said reservoir, remarkable in that said means storage include a very open synthetic foam pad placed between said reservoir and said membrane.
  • the synthetic foam forming the pad has a very open structure, this pad can store powder in its mass.
  • the powder compact according to the invention mainly comprises a reservoir for powder 1, a lid 7, a selector 2, a synthetic foam pad 3, a porous membrane 4, a ring 5 and a protective cover 6.
  • the powder tank 1 may have substantially the shape of a cylinder provided with a shoulder e1.
  • the lid 7 comprises a tank grid 9 provided with a plurality 11 and is shaped to define two other shoulders e2 and e3.
  • the cover 7 comprises at its periphery a small bead annular 13 in the shoulder area e3.
  • the lid 7 is connected to the tank 1 by any appropriate means such as the collage, clipping, etc.
  • the selector 2 has a skirt 15 adapted to fit on the shoulder e3 of the cover 7.
  • This skirt 15 is surmounted by a substantially annular wall 17 extending around a selection gate 19 provided with a plurality of orifices 21.
  • annular wall 17 and the selection grid 19 define a housing 23.
  • the pad 3 preferably has a substantially cylindrical shape of so that it can be placed in the housing 23 of the selector 2.
  • the synthetic foam forming the pad 3 is very open, that is to say it includes large diameter pores communicating widely with each other.
  • these pores may have a mean diameter of the order of 2 mm, and be divided into the number of about 8 pores per centimeter.
  • the membrane 4 has substantially a disk shape of diameter significantly greater than that of the housing 23 formed in the selector 2.
  • the membrane 4 may also be formed in a synthetic foam, but this foam will be much less open than the foam forming the pad 3.
  • the pores of the membrane 4 may have a diameter average of the order of 0.1 mm, and to be divided into the number of about 130 pores per centimeter.
  • the outer wall 25 of the membrane 4 will have a flocking, that is to say that it will be covered with very fine nylon fibers making it softer to the touch.
  • the inside diameter of the ring 5 is slightly greater than the diameter outside the skirt 15 of the selector 2.
  • the ring 5 comprises, in its upper part, a flange 26 extending inwardly of this ring and having an inside diameter slightly greater than the outside diameter of the annular wall 17 of the selector 2.
  • the ring 5 is adapted to fit on the shoulder e2 defined by the cover 7.
  • the protective cover 6, which can be transparent, is adapted to fit together on the shoulder e1 of the tank 1.
  • the powder tank 1, the selector 2, the ring 5 and the protective cover 6 can be made of plastic by molding.
  • the skirt 15 of the selector 2 comprises, on the inner face, a groove 27 cooperating with the small bead 13, thus allowing to engage the selector 2 on the lid 7 while allowing the rotation of these two parts one with respect to the other.
  • the powder compact is shown in a service configuration, that is to say that the orifices 21 formed in the selection grid 19 of the selector 2 are arranged in the extension of the orifices 11 formed in the tank grate 9.
  • said orifices thus form channels authorizing the migration of the powder 29 from the tank 1 to the compartment 23 of the selector 2.
  • the powder compact according to the invention can also be found in another storage configuration, not shown, in which the orifices 11 and 21 would be shifted relative to one another as a result of the selector 2 with respect to the lid 7.
  • the pad 3 is disposed inside the compartment 23, and occupies substantially all the volume.
  • the membrane 4 is stretched on the selector 2, and held in place on it selector thanks to the ring 5 whose inner profile corresponds, with a slight clearance, to the outer profile of the selector 2.
  • the orifices 11, as well as possibly the 21, have a section which decreases going from the tank 1 to the compartment 23.
  • the pow- der is then slightly overturned so as to migrate a part of the powder 29 through the channels defined by the orifices 11 and 21 into the mass of pad 3.
  • the selector 2 is rotated relative to the cover 7 of way that the orifices 11 and 21 are offset relative to each other, thus preventing the powder 29 from leaving the tank 1.
  • the structure defined by the channels 11, 21 and the pad 3 makes it possible to overcome the bulb of the prior art while ensuring better storage capacity of the powder in the immediate vicinity of the membrane 4.
  • the material forming the pad 3 is significantly less expensive than that forming the bulb of the prior art, the powder can be made according to the invention at very low cost.
  • the method of fixing the membrane 4 on the selector 2, that is to say by wedging by means of the ring 5, allows to use a membrane formed in one piece, unlike the membrane of the powder compact of the technique which had to be designed so that it could cover the bulb, which necessarily implied that this membrane had to be made of two parts connected together by welding.
  • the cushion 3 takes a flared shape as shown in Figure 2, that is to say a shape that protrudes from the wall 17 of the selector 2, thus improving the appearance aesthetic of the compact.
  • the pad 3 can covering the upper edge of the wall 17 and at least a portion of the ring 5, which makes it possible to prevent these hard parts of the powder compact from disturbing the wearer.
  • the pad 3 it will be possible for the pad 3 to have dimensions slightly larger than those of slot 23 before being inserted into this one, so you have to compress it slightly to place it in this housing, and once in place, it tends to overflow this dwelling.
  • the ring 5 is adapted to fit together on the shoulder e2, it can thus hide the connection zone of the membrane 4 with selector 2 and this selector with the cover 7, thus further improving the finish of the compact.
  • the tank grid 9 is curved, its concavity being oriented facing the tank 1.
  • the tank grids 9 and selection 19 are both curved so that their forms marry mutually.
  • the tank grid 9 is flat and the pad 3 has a groove 31 at its periphery, into which the edge penetrates inside 26 of the ring 5.
  • the membrane 4 is thus kept stuck at the bottom of the groove 31 by the inner edge 26.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 7 differs from the previous one in that the tank grate 9 is curved.
  • the tank grid 9 is curved, and the foam pad 3 is coated with a synthetic foam casing 33 harder than the one forming this pad, so as to confer a certain rigidity to the assembly formed by the pad 3, the casing 33 and the membrane 4.
  • the pad 3 and the membrane 4 are held under pressure exerted by the inner rim 26 of the ring 5.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 9 differs from the previous one in that has no grid interposed between the pad 3 and the tank 1, and in that the synthetic foam casing 33 has a groove 31 at its periphery in which penetrates the inner edge 26 of the ring 5.
  • the membrane 4 is thus kept stuck at the bottom of the groove 31 by the inner edge 26.
  • membrane 4 has a portion 4a which covers the edge of the face of the pad 3 facing the tank 1.
  • the membrane 4 envelops almost all of the pad 3, so that this membrane and this pad form a set compact whose implementation is very simplified.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 10 differs from the previous one in that the synthetic foam envelope 33 is in fact divided into two parts 33a and 33b defining a groove 31 in which sinks the inner rim 26 of the ring 5.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 11 differs from the previous one in that the synthetic foam envelope 33 includes only an upper portion 33a located above the inner rim 26 of the ring 5.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 12 differs from the variant represented in FIG. FIG. 8 in that the pad 3 is machined so as to present substantially the shaped like a mushroom, the synthetic foam envelope 33 being set back by relative to the face of the pad 3 which is in contact with the membrane 4.
  • the variant shown in FIG. 13 differs from the previous one in that the synthetic foam envelope 33 reaches the height of the face of the pad 3 which is in contact with the membrane 4.
