Definitions

  • the present invention relates to packaging devices and application of a liquid product, for example a product for coloring the hair resulting from mixing a first and a second conditioned substance separately.
  • Japanese Patent Application JP 2002-179118 discloses a device for packaging and application comprising an applicator and a container in which is arranged a cap separating two compartments for the storage of two substances to mix extemporaneously. The cap can be moved out of a closed position when mixing the two substances. Such a device has a relatively complex.
  • US Pat. Nos. 4,573,506 and 5,540,654 disclose other devices for condition separately two products to be mixed extemporaneously. These devices are not intended for use in the cosmetic of the mixture, by application to the hair for example.
  • the invention makes it possible to use, for applying the mixture, the assembly formed by one of the containers and the applicator, this set having a reduced weight compared to total weight of the kit.
  • the kit is relatively simple to manufacture and use.
  • the first substance can be for example a liquid, in particular a hair dye.
  • the first substance can still be a powder, for example.
  • the second substance can also be a liquid, for example an oxidant hair coloring.
  • the container intended to be bound to the applicator during the application is preferably made with a flexible wall, elastically deformable, which allows the user to create inside of it an overpressure to expel out of container the product contained inside or to take the mixture between two uses.
  • the two containers may, where appropriate, each have a wall flexible, elastically deformable.
  • the applicator can be made with different shapes, depending on the application referred.
  • the applicator may include a portion of the application made with at least one relief, for example a succession of teeth or bristles.
  • the aforementioned channel of the applicator can lead to one end of the part elongate.
  • this channel may result in at least one lateral orifice of the application portion, this lateral orifice being for example located between two teeth or bristles when the application part comprises at least one succession of teeth or hair to comb the hair.
  • the applicator may comprise at least one sealing member configured to apply sealingly to at least one of the containers.
  • At least one of the containers may have a collar and the applicator may have at least one sealing lip arranged to be applied on the surface radially inner of this neck.
  • the applicator can thus be fixed in an unsealed manner on the container in which the elongated portion extends.
  • the applicator may comprise, where appropriate, a surface sealing constituted for example by a portion of the elongate portion of the applicator, this portion being arranged to be applied on an inner surface of the container to inside which the elongated part extends.
  • the applicator may comprise a first tubular, threaded skirt internally, arranged to receive the first container and a second tubular skirt, threaded internally, arranged to receive the second container.
  • the channel of the applicator by which the substance contained in one of the containers can reach the other container, can be realized with an inner section low enough to prevent a leak of this substance when the assembly by the applicator and one of the containers is not yet mounted on the other container.
  • the applicator may comprise a breakable lid before the first use, closing the aforementioned channel at one end.
  • the shutter means can be configured to change configuration by bearing against the bottom of the first container when the applicator is engaged in this one.
  • the sealing means may comprise a pin connected to the elongated portion of the applicator by a frangible zone.
  • the sealing means can be made monolithically by molding plastic material with the applicator.
  • the device 1 for packaging and application shown in FIGS. 2 comprises a first container 2, a second container 3 superimposed on the first along a longitudinal axis X and an applicator 4 having an internal channel 5 through which both containers 2 and 3 can communicate.
  • the device 1 comes from the assembly of the kit represented in FIG. which the first container 2, which contains a first substance A, is closed by a individual cap 8.
  • the second container 3, which contains a second substance B, is also closed by an individual cap 7.
  • the applicator 4 can be initially separated containers 2 and 3, as seen in Figure 4.
  • the individual plugs 7 and 8 each comprise a mounting skirt 9 threaded internally and a sealing lip 10. This is arranged to apply from sealingly on the radially inner surface of the neck 11 of the container 2 with respect to relates to the plug 8 and the neck 12 of the container 3 with respect to the plug 7.
  • the substance A is for example a coloring oxidant and the substance B a dye to be mixed with substance A at the time of use.
  • the second container 3 has a flexible wall, elastically deformable, on which the user can press to decrease its interior volume.
  • the applicator 4 has an elongated portion 14 of axis X, provided with greater than an enlarged portion 20 connecting to a coupling portion 13, which allows to secure the containers 2 and 3.
  • the elongate portion 14 has inferiorly an application part 15.
  • the latter presents for example, as illustrated, reliefs 16 made monolithically with the elongated portion 14.
  • the reliefs 16 are constituted for example by a succession of teeth.
  • the coupling part 13 comprises a first tubular skirt 18 of axis X, threaded internally, arranged to screw on the neck 11 of the first container 2 and a second tubular skirt 19 of X axis also, arranged to screw on the collar 12 of the second container 3.
  • the skirts 18 and 19 may, if appropriate, have inner diameters different, to avoid the risk of inverting containers 2 and 3 when assembling the device 1.
  • the coupling part 13 also comprises sealing means making it possible to ensure the tightness of its fastening on the container 3.
  • sealing means are constituted, in the example under consideration, by a annular sealing lip 22 arranged to be applied on the inner surface of the neck 12.
  • the outer surface 21 of the enlarged portion is sealingly applied to the lower surface of the neck 11.
  • the channel 5 opens at the lower end of the elongate portion 14 through an orifice 25, which can be located for example at a distance relatively close to the bottom 26 of the first container 2, as seen in Figure 2.
  • the section of channel 5 is small enough to avoid a significant leak of the substance A during this operation, better avoid any flow.
  • the user can then press several times the flexible wall of the container 3 to expel the substance A contained therein in the first container 2 and stir the mixture obtained. Whenever the user stops exerting pressure on the wall of the second container 3, it resumes elastically its initial shape.
  • the presence of reliefs 16 can contribute to the homogenization of the mixture M under the effect of turbulence created in the first container 2 by the variation of the interior volume of the second container 3.
  • the not completely airtight fastening of the skirt 18 on the collar 11 and the game existing between the enlarged portion 20 and the neck 11 can facilitate the departure of the air contained in the container 2 when filled by the substance contained in the container 3.
  • the mixture M can be dispensed by again separating the assembly 30 from first container 2, as shown in Figure 3.
  • the container 3 then serves as a gripping.
  • the mixture M can be applied to the hair by pressing on the wall of the second container 3 and the reliefs 16 can be used to distribute the product on the hair, the hair being able to engage with one another.
  • the kit may include a plug 33 arranged to attach to the skirt 19 of the applicator 4, the latter being proposed to the user already in place on the first container 2.
  • the cap 33 may comprise a central shutter 34 arranged to close the channel 5 of the applicator.
  • the user can for example remove the plugs 7 and 33 and then screw the skirt 19 on the collar 12 of the second container 3.
  • the kit may also comprise, as illustrated in FIG. 7, a shutter 36 attached to the end of the elongated portion 14 of the applicator 4 to close the channel 5.
  • the applicator 4 can be proposed to the user already in place on the first container 2.
  • the user can remove the cap 7 and screw the skirt 19 on the neck 12 of the second container 3.
  • the shutter 36 is still in place at the end of the applicator 4, which prevents any risk of substance A flowing out of the first container 2.
  • the user can exert pressure on the wall of the second container 3 to cause the expulsion of the shutter 36 and allow substances A and B to mix.
  • the kit comprises the container 2 containing the substance A, closed by the cap 8, and the container 3 containing the substance B, closed by the applicator 4, the latter being provided at its free end with a sealing means 40 that also shown in Figure 9.
  • This sealing means 40 comprises, for example, as illustrated, a cover having a pin 21 connected by a preferential annular zone of rupture 42 to a flange 43 projecting radially inwardly at one end of the channel 5.
  • the lid is advantageously made monolithically with the elongated portion 14 of the applicator 4, by plastic molding.
  • the closure means 40 are arranged so as to automatically switch from a shutter configuration to an open configuration allowing substance B to mix with the substance A, when the elongated portion 14 of the applicator 4 is introduced into the container 2.
  • This configuration change can be obtained by example by cooperation between the closure means 40 and the bottom of the container 2 in which the applicator 4 is introduced.
  • the pin 41 thus bears against the bottom of the container 2 before the end of the screwing of the skirt 18 on the neck 11 of the container 2 and the annular zone 42 breakable breaks, which has the consequence that at the end of the screwing of applicator, the pin 41 is raised in the channel 5.
  • the diameter of the annular zone 42 is preferably substantially smaller than the internal diameter of the channel 5.
  • shutter means 40 could be made differently again.
  • the closure means 40 comprise a shutter attached to the elongated portion 14 of the applicator 4 and held thereon by example by snapping, friction, gluing or welding.
  • the shutter is for example a heat-sealed lid at the end of the elongate portion 14 that the user can remove or pierce before placing the applicator 4 in the container 2.
  • the bottom of the latter could be provided with a pin that would perforate the aforementioned operculum.
  • the part of the applicator used for the application can be made of different ways and in the variant illustrated in Figure 10, the channel 5 opens with lateral openings 38 between the reliefs 16.
  • the latter may for example be constituted by a succession of teeth or bristles, each of these reliefs extending on the periphery outside of the elongated part.
  • outer periphery it is necessary to understand a region of the elongated portion extending around the axis X.
  • the reliefs 16, especially the teeth or bristles may each extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis longitudinal X.
  • All the orifices 38 can open, if necessary, on the same side of the applicator.
  • the reliefs 16 may possibly not be made in one piece with the elongated portion 14 by molding of material.
