A method of decorating a transparent or translucent flask in glass or plastic material, intended for cosmetic use to contain a liquid or a perfume or similar in which the decoration is in the inside of the flask. A layer of lacquer is created on the inner surface of the flask by spraying a mist of liquid or powder from a nozzle introduced into the flask with simultaneous aspiration to create reduced pressure. The flask is preferably pre-heated and cooled after coating and drying of the coat. A first color is applied and areas of it are removed and a second color is applied, which is visible through the areas where the first color has been removed. A third color may be applied and made visible by removing areas covered with the first two colors. An independent claim is included for a perfume flask with an interior decoration produced by the claimed method.

Description

PROCEDE DE DECORATION D'UN FLACON PROCESS FOR DECORATING A BOTTLE
La présente invention concerne un procédé de décoration d'un flacon et plus particulièrement un procédé permettant de réaliser un décor à l'intérieur du flacon.The present invention relates to a method of decorating a bottle and more particularly to a method for producing a decoration inside the bottle.
L'esthétique des produits est, de nos jours, un élément important de choix pour les donneurs d'ordres. Aussi, quel que soit le domaine dans lequel ils exercent, les constructeurs cherchent à donner à leurs produits la meilleure esthétique possible, de façon à provoquer un réflexe d'achat par les consommateurs.The aesthetics of the products is, today, an important element of choice for the contractors. Also, regardless of the field in which they practice, manufacturers seek to give their products the best possible aesthetic, so as to cause a shopping reflex by consumers.
Le domaine de la mode, de la bijouterie, de la cosmétique, et de la parfumerie est, bien entendu, très concerné par l'esthétique des produits et de leur emballage éventuel, et tout un chacun a pu constater que, notamment les parfumeurs, cherchent à attirer la clientèle par des flacons qui se différencient de la concurrence en proposant leurs parfums dans des flacons de plus en plus esthétiques et originaux dans leurs formes et leurs décors.The field of fashion, jewelery, cosmetics, and perfumery is, of course, very concerned about the aesthetics of products and their possible packaging, and everyone has found that, including perfumers, seek to attract customers with bottles that are different from the competition by offering their perfumes in bottles more and more aesthetic and original in their forms and decorations.
L'invention propose un nouveau procédé de décoration permettant la décoration d'un flacon par l'intérieur, ce qui permet d'obtenir un décor particulièrement élégant et qui est protégé des agressions externes comme, par exemple, les frottements.The invention proposes a new decoration process for decorating a bottle from the inside, which makes it possible to obtain a particularly elegant decoration and which is protected from external aggressions such as, for example, friction.
Grâce au procédé de l'invention, il est possible de réaliser un décor intérieur comprenant, par exemple, une seule couche de revêtement décoratif, associée s'il le faut à une couche transparente, servant d'isolant insensible au contenu souvent alcoolisé ou contenant divers produits chimiques cosmétiques, ou une couche comprenant des zones transparentes ou semi-transparentes, voire des différentes couleurs mélangées entre elles de façon structurée ou non structurée, voire la réalisation d'un décor de plusieurs couleurs, et différents aspects métalliques qui peuvent être aussi colorés.With the method of the invention, it is possible to achieve an interior decor comprising, for example, a single layer of decorative coating, associated if necessary with a transparent layer, serving as an insensitive insensitive content often alcoholic or containing various cosmetic chemicals, or a layer comprising transparent or semi-transparent zones, or even different colors mixed together in a structured or unstructured manner, or even the production of a decoration of several colors, and different metallic aspects that can be as colorful.
Ainsi, le procédé de décoration d'un flacon transparent ou translucide en verre en matériau plastique destiné au domaine de la cosmétique, pour contenir un liquide tel qu'un parfum, ou similaire, selon l'invention, est caractérisé en ce que la décoration est réalisée à l'intérieur du flacon.Thus, the process for decorating a transparent or translucent glass bottle made of plastic material intended for the field of cosmetics, for containing a liquid such as a perfume, or the like, according to the invention, is characterized in that the decoration is carried out inside the bottle.
Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, le procédé consiste à réaliser au moins une couche de laque sur la surface interne du flacon.According to a complementary feature, the method consists in producing at least one lacquer layer on the inner surface of the bottle.
Selon une autre caractéristique complémentaire, le procédé consiste à pulvériser un brouillard sous forme de poudre ou de liquide à l'intérieur du flacon.According to another additional characteristic, the method consists in spraying a mist in the form of powder or liquid inside the bottle.
Par ailleurs, le procédé de décoration de l'invention d'un flacon consiste, dans une étape principale, à pulvériser de la poudre ou du liquide à l'intérieur du flacon, la pulvérisation se faisant sous la forme d'un brouillard.Furthermore, the method of decorating the invention of a bottle consists, in a main step, of spraying powder or liquid inside the bottle, the spray being in the form of a fog.
Notons que la pulvérisation est faite grâce à une buse de pulvérisation introduite dans le flacon, par son embouchure, tandis que, parallèlement à la pulvérisation, il est procédé à une aspiration, pour créer une dépression à l'intérieur du flacon.Note that the spraying is done through a spray nozzle introduced into the bottle, through its mouth, while, parallel to the spraying, it is carried out, to create a vacuum inside the bottle.
Ajoutons que le poudrage se fait avantageusement sur un flacon chaud ; aussi, dans une étape précédant l'étape de pulvérisation, il est procédé au chauffage du flacon.It should be added that the powdering is advantageously done on a hot bottle; also, in a step prior to the spraying step, the flask is heated.
Dans une étape supplémentaire faisant suite à l'étape de pulvérisation, il est procédé à un séchage. Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, le liquide pulvérisé lors de l'étape principale de pulvérisation est une peinture ou un vernis liquide, qui est, par exemple, une laque époxy liquide, ou est une laque polyuréthane liquide, tandis que la poudre pulvérisée lors de l'étape principale de pulvérisation est une laque poudre sans solvant, qui est un extrait sec et, par exemple, une poudre de type époxy, de type polyuréthane, polyester, voire polyéthylène et ses dérivés.In an additional step following the spraying step, drying is carried out. According to a complementary characteristic, the liquid sprayed during the main spraying step is a paint or a liquid varnish, which is, for example, a liquid epoxy lacquer, or is a liquid polyurethane lacquer, while the powder sprayed during The main spraying step is a solvent-free lacquer powder, which is a dry extract and, for example, an epoxy type powder, of the polyurethane, polyester or even polyethylene type and its derivatives.
Ajoutons que, dans une étape ultérieure faisant suite à l'étape de séchage, il est procédé à une étape de refroidissement.In addition, in a subsequent step following the drying step, a cooling step is carried out.
Selon un mode préféré d'exécution, le procédé, consiste à pulvériser un liquide ou une poudre d'une première couleur, pour former une première couche de décors de couleurs ayant une première couleur, puis, dans une étape intermédiaire, on détruit la couche dans des zones déterminées, et ce, par exemple, par méthode laser, puis, on pulvérise dans le flacon un liquide ou une poudre d'une deuxième couleur, pour réaliser une deuxième couche de décor de couleur ayant la deuxième couleur.According to a preferred embodiment, the method consists in spraying a liquid or a powder of a first color, to form a first layer of color decorations having a first color, then, in an intermediate step, the layer is destroyed. in specific areas, for example, by laser method, then, is sprayed into the bottle a liquid or a powder of a second color, to achieve a second color pattern layer having the second color.
Selon un autre mode d'exécution, on réalise un décor interne par plus de deux couches de couleurs différentes et l'on détruit seulement la première couche pour laisser apparaître dans ces zones détruites la deuxième couche, tandis que les deux premières couches sont détruites dans d'autres zones pour laisser apparaître la troisième couche. According to another embodiment, an internal decoration is produced by more than two layers of different colors and only the first layer is destroyed in order to reveal the second layer in these destroyed areas, while the first two layers are destroyed in the second layer. other areas to reveal the third layer.
L'invention concerne aussi le flacon décoré selon le procédé de l'invention, qui est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un décor intérieur, tandis qu'il est en verre ou en matière plastique comme, par exemple, en polyesthers thermoplastiques (PET, PET- A, PET-G,....), en polyméthacrylate de méthyle (PMMA), en polyoléfine tel qu'en polyéthylène (PE ou PE-HD polyéthylène à haute densité) ou polypropylène (PP), polystyrène (PS) ou en acrylique.The invention also relates to the bottle decorated according to the method of the invention, which is characterized in that it comprises an interior decoration, while it is made of glass or plastic material, such as, for example, thermoplastic polyesters (PET , PET-A, PET-G, ....), of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), of polyolefin such as polyethylene (PE or PE-HD high-density polyethylene) or polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS ) or acrylic.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention se dégageront de la description qui va suivre donnée qu'à titre d'exemples non limitatifs.Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description given as non-limiting examples.
Le procédé de l'invention est destiné à la décoration par l'intérieur d'un flacon transparent ou translucide, ledit flacon pouvant être en verre ou en matière plastique. Le procédé est particulièrement bien adapté à la décoration des flacons utilisés dans le domaine de la cosmétique tels que des flacons de parfum, d'eau de toilette, ou d'eau de Cologne, ou autres contenants, tels que du rouge à lèvres, du mascara, du vernis à ongle.The method of the invention is intended for the interior decoration of a transparent or translucent bottle, said bottle being able to be made of glass or plastic. The method is particularly well suited to the decoration of bottles used in the field of cosmetics such as bottles of perfume, eau de toilette, or cologne, or other containers, such as lipstick, mascara, nail polish.
Dans le cas d'un flacon ne matière plastique, ce dernier peut être, par exemple, en polyesthertéréftalate (PET), en polyméthacrylate de méthyle (PMMA), en polyoléfine tel qu'en polyéthylène (PE) ou polypropylène (PP) ou en acrylique, ou encore en matériau hybride, tel que, par exemple, en matériau commercialisé sous la marque déposée Surlyn ®, ou Abcite ®.In the case of a plastic bottle, the latter may be, for example, polyesterotereftalate (PET), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyolefin such as polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) or acrylic or hybrid material, such as, for example, a material marketed under the trademark Surlyn ®, or Abcite ®.
Selon le procédé de l'invention, la décoration est réalisée à l'intérieur de ce dernier, de façon à recouvrir la surface intérieure d'un décor, constitué par un revêtement. Selon le procédé de décoration, il est réalisé au moins une couche de décoration sachant, comme on le verra plus loin, que la décoration peut être réalisée grâce à plusieurs couches de laques, dont la couche en contact permanent avec le contenu est totalement insensible et inattaquable par ce dernier. L'étape principale du procédé consiste à pulvériser de la poudre ou du liquide à l'intérieur du flacon, la pulvérisation se faisant sous la forme d'un brouillard. La pulvérisation est faite grâce à une buse de pulvérisation introduite dans le flacon par son embouchure, la buse étant disposée à l'extrémité d'un tube de pulvérisation et étant constituée par une canalisation centrale comprenant, par exemple, un ensemble de trous radiaux reliés à un réservoir contenant le produit à pulvériser. Par ailleurs, le tube de pulvérisation comprend un canal périphérique d'aspiration. Bien entendu, la buse de pulvérisation peut avoir toute autre construction.According to the method of the invention, the decoration is carried out inside the latter, so as to cover the inner surface of a decoration, consisting of a coating. According to the decoration method, at least one decoration layer is produced, knowing, as will be seen below, that the decoration can be achieved by means of several layers of lacquers, the layer of which in permanent contact with the contents is totally insensitive and unassailable by the latter. The main step of the process is to spray powder or liquid inside the vial, the spray being in the form of a mist. The spraying is done by means of a spray nozzle introduced into the bottle through its mouth, the nozzle being disposed at the end of a spray tube and being constituted by a central pipe comprising, for example, a set of connected radial holes. to a tank containing the product to be sprayed. In addition, the spray tube comprises a peripheral suction channel. Of course, the spray nozzle may have any other construction.
Le liquide pulvérisé lors de l'étape principale de pulvérisation est une peinture ou un vernis liquide, qui est, par exemple, une laque époxy liquide, ou une laque polyuréthane liquide, ou autre comprenant un agent de coloration et un agent de polymérisation. On utilisera avantageusement un liquide à haut extrait sec.The sprayed liquid in the main spray step is a liquid paint or varnish, which is, for example, a liquid epoxy lacquer, or a liquid polyurethane lacquer, or the like comprising a coloring agent and a curing agent. It will be advantageous to use a liquid with a high solids content.
La poudre pulvérisée lors de l'étape principale de pulvérisation est une laque poudre sans solvant, qui est un extrait sec et, par exemple, une poudre de type époxy, de type polyuréthane, polyester, voire polyéthylène, Surlyn ®, ou autre. Le principe est développé pour qu'une dépression permanente se crée dans le flacon, permettant ainsi l'arrivée en suspension de la poudre et sa répartition homogène à l'intérieur de ce dernier, par l'intermédiaire de réglages précis des débits de poudre et d'aspiration.The powder sprayed during the main stage of spraying is a solvent-free lacquer powder, which is a dry extract and, for example, an epoxy type powder, of the polyurethane, polyester or even polyethylene, Surlyn® or other type. The principle is developed so that a permanent depression is created in the bottle, thus allowing the arrival in suspension of the powder and its homogeneous distribution inside the latter, by means of precise settings of the flows of powder and suction.
Le poudrage se fait avantageusement sur un flacon chaud ; aussi, dans une étape précédant l'étape de pulvérisation, il est procédé au chauffage du flacon, le chauffage se faisant, par exemple, grâce à de l'air chaud, ou avantageusement par rayonnement. On notera que, dans le cas de pulvérisation d'un liquide, ce dernier peut être chauffé avant sa pulvérisation pour améliorer son accrochage sur la surface interne du flacon.The dusting is advantageously done on a hot bottle; also, in a step preceding the spraying step, the vial is heated, the heating being done, for example, by means of hot air, or advantageously by radiation. Note that, in the case of spraying a liquid, it can be heated before spraying to improve its attachment to the inner surface of the bottle.
Lors de l'étape de pulvérisation, il se forme, sur la surface intérieure du flacon, un revêtement décoratif, qui doit être séché, par exemple, par polymérisation.During the spraying step, a decorative coating is formed on the inner surface of the bottle, which must be dried, for example by polymerization.
Ainsi, dans une étape supplémentaire faisant suite à l'étape de pulvérisation, il est procédé à un séchage, par exemple, du type polymérisation. Lors de l'étape supplémentaire de séchage, il est procédé au chauffage du flacon comprenant sa couche interne de décor, le chauffage pouvant être fait, par exemple, par air chaud ou passage en étuve, par exemple, pendant 7 minutes à 170°, de façon à réaliser un genre de cuisson.Thus, in an additional step following the spraying step, drying is carried out, for example, of the polymerization type. During the additional drying step, the vial comprising its inner decorative layer is heated, the heating being possible, for example, by hot air or in an oven, for example, for 7 minutes at 170 °, in order to achieve a kind of cooking.
Dans une étape ultérieure faisant suite à l'étape de séchage, il est procédé à une étape de refroidissement. Cette étape doit être lente, afin d'éviter que des chocs thermiques, qui pourraient nuirent à l'accrochage de la ou des couches de décoration, n'interviennent.In a subsequent step following the drying step, a cooling step is performed. This step must be slow, in order to prevent thermal shocks, which could interfere with the hanging of the decorative layer (s), to intervene.
Selon le procédé de l'invention, on peut, par exemple, pulvériser un liquide ou une poudre d'une première couleur (Cl) pour former une première couche de décors de couleur ayant une première couleur (Cl). Puis, dans une étape intermédiaire, on peut détruire la couche dans des zones déterminées, et ce, par exemple, par méthode laser. Dans cette opération de destruction de la couche, on peut faire un marquage sans couleur, puis, on pulvérise dans le flacon un liquide ou une poudre d'une deuxième couleur (C2), pour réaliser une deuxième couche de décor de couleur ayant la deuxième couleur. Cette deuxième couche ne sera visible de l'extérieur que dans les zones ou la première couche de première couleur a été détruite. On pourra ainsi, et ce, grâce au procédé, réaliser des décors de différentes couleurs, ou détruire, par exemple, par laser, la ou les couches de décor interne, pour laisser une zone sans décor, afin de rendre visible le niveau du contenu du flacon. On conservera dans tous les cas, si besoin, la couche finale en contact permanent avec le contenu, afin de garantir aucune migration dans le temps des produits chimiques ou colorants contenus dans la couche de décor et le produit qui constitue le produit cosmétique.According to the method of the invention, it is possible, for example, to spray a liquid or a powder of a first color (Cl) to form a first layer of color decorations having a first color (Cl). Then, in an intermediate step, the layer can be destroyed in certain zones, for example by laser method. In this operation of destroying the layer, it is possible to make a colorless marking, then a liquid or a powder of a second color (C2) is sprayed into the bottle to make a second layer of color decoration having the second color. color. This second layer will be visible from the outside only in areas where the first layer of first color has been destroyed. We will thus be able, thanks to the process, to create sets of different colors, or destroy, for example, by laser, the layer or layers of internal decor, to leave a zone without decor, to make visible the level of the contents of the bottle. In all cases, if necessary, the final layer in permanent contact with the contents, to ensure no migration over time chemicals or dyes contained in the decorative layer and the product that constitutes the cosmetic product.
Ajoutons que le procédé permet aussi de réaliser un décor interne avec, par exemple, trois couches de couleurs différentes, et qu'en fonction de ces couches il sera possible de détruire seulement la première couche pour laisser apparaître dans ces zones détruites la deuxième couche, tandis que les deux premières couches pourraient être détruites dans d'autres zones, pour laisser apparaître la troisième couche, le laser ne détruisant que les couches de laque avec pigments.Let us add that the process also allows to realize an internal decoration with, for example, three layers of different colors, and that according to these layers it will be possible to destroy only the first layer to let appear in these destroyed zones the second layer, while the first two layers could be destroyed in other areas, to reveal the third layer, the laser destroying only layers of lacquer with pigments.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemples, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques ainsi que leurs combinaisons. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and represented by way of examples, but it also includes all the technical equivalents as well as their combinations.
