Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for packaging and dispensing a product, especially a cosmetic product according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a product may be dispensed in particular in the form of a cream, a gel, a foam or of a spray.
  • Cosmetic product means a product as defined in Council Directive 93/35 / EEC of 14 June 1993, amending for the sixth time Directive 76/768 / EEC.
  • a packaging and dispensing device comprises a container containing the product to be dispensed equipped with a dispensing element.
  • a dispensing element may be a pump or a valve which is surmounted by a diffuser.
  • the diffuser allows the user to route the product exiting the container to a dispensing orifice. It can further control the actuation of the dispensing member to eject a dose of product out of the container.
  • a substantially cylindrical diffuser having a spray orifice such as that described in FIG. US Patent 4,401,240 , the diffuser being freely mounted on an actuating rod of the actuating element so as to be able to move it to actuate it.
  • a diffuser is relatively easy to handle so that it can easily be placed on the actuating rod on the assembly lines of the devices.
  • the rod can be substantially depressed and product can escape from the container.
  • the document GB 1 324 408 discloses a dispensing head having a diffuser mounted on an actuating rod, and a cap attached to a container, the cap having an upper portion movable to bear against the diffuser.
  • trigger type devices such as that described in the document JP2000191043 , which include a pump fully integrated into a head equipped with a trigger which it can not be separated. Such devices are directly attached to the container so that the risk of actuation of the pump rod is limited when mounting these devices on their container.
  • this type of device does not allow the use of pumps different, when one wishes for example to distribute a different dose of product, unless to change the whole of the head.
  • triggers are unattractive and do not allow to have a very important choice of designs.
  • the document EP1024094 discloses a dispensing head which includes a body for attachment to a container and a push-button made from a single piece with the body, body and push-button being connected by bridges of material which are broken before mounting the head on the container or during assembly. The bridges of material are thus broken before a first use of the assembly. Such a device can therefore be actuated accidentally before a first use.
  • the diffuser may be connected, prior to a first actuation of the distribution element, to the mounting member by at least one bridge of material in a position such that the diffuser is not in fluid communication with the element of distribution, the material bridge being fracturable during the first actuation so as to allow the fluidic engagement of the dispensing element with the diffuser.
  • the diffuser is not in fluid communication with the distribution element means that there is no sealed connection between the two parts and that the product can not be transferred from the distribution element to the diffuser without there is no escape.
  • Such a position of the diffuser relative to the dispensing element makes it possible to limit the risks of actuation of the dispensing element during the assembly of the dispensing head on the container on the assembly lines and therefore the risks of product leak.
  • the trigger makes it possible to limit the efforts necessary to actuate the pump and to improve the comfort of use and the gestures of the application. It is therefore possible to spray relatively viscous products such as milk or still the oils, which require the use of precompression pumps to be able to form a spray of good quality, consisting in particular of fine particles.
  • the trigger also allows the user to easily fracture the material bridge during the first actuation of the dispensing element by limiting the efforts required to fracture. Relatively solid material bridges can thus be used so as to limit the risks that they are accidentally fractured, while being easily broken during the first actuation of the dispensing element through the lever effect of the trigger.
  • a portion of the diffuser intended to be in fluid communication with a portion of the distribution element may be located, before the first actuation of the distribution element, at a non-zero distance, measured along the longitudinal axis of the element distribution, of said portion of the distribution element.
  • the diffuser is at an axial position different from its axial position before a first actuation.
  • the diffuser may comprise a sleeve for sealingly engaging an actuating rod of the dispensing element, a lower edge of the sleeve being located above an upper edge of the actuating rod before a first actuation of the dispensing element.
  • the mounting member may be connected to the diffuser by several material bridges, including four material bridges.
  • the diffuser may comprise a cylindrical skirt provided with a lower edge, the bridge (s) material being formed (s) on the lower edge of the cylindrical skirt.
  • the mounting member and the diffuser can be obtained from one piece molding. This limits the number of parts to be made and therefore the manufacturing cost of the device.
  • the diffuser may be configured to depress the dispensing member along the longitudinal axis of the dispensing member to actuate it.
  • the dispensing element may be a pump. Alternatively, the dispensing element could be a valve.
  • the mounting member may be connected to the diffuser by a flexible band which allows the movement of the diffuser relative to the mounting member.
  • the diffuser thus remains integral with the mounting member, even after breaking the material bridges during the first actuation.
  • the mounting member may comprise a hoop adapted to be fixed on a neck of the container or on a skirt for fixing the dispensing element on the container.
  • the hoop may be configured to snap onto the neck of the container or the skirt for fixing the dispensing element on the container or, alternatively, may include a thread for screwing the head on the neck of the container.
  • the diffuser may include a cannula that opens through the dispensing orifice.
  • the cannula may be elongated along an axis distinct from the longitudinal axis of the dispensing element, in particular along a substantially perpendicular axis. It is thus possible to distribute the product in a relatively precise manner.
  • the trigger can be obtained from molding from a single piece with the diffuser and the mounting member.
  • the dispensing head can thus be obtained from a single piece, and therefore at a lower cost.
  • the trigger can be connected to the mounting member by a flexible tab.
  • the trigger can be articulated on the mounting member, in particular by a first end of the trigger.
  • the first end of the trigger may comprise two lateral openings intended to define an axis of articulation, in particular an axis substantially perpendicular to the axis longitudinal of the trigger.
  • the two openings may be configured to receive two protuberances provided on the mounting member so as to allow a tilting movement of the trigger relative to the mounting member about the hinge axis.
  • the trigger may include a second end for forming a bearing surface for controlling actuation of the dispensing member.
  • the trigger may be configured to depress the diffuser to actuate the dispensing member.
  • the trigger may comprise at least one lug adapted to bear on an upper wall of the diffuser.
  • the lug may be configured to be housed in a corresponding recess provided on the upper wall of the diffuser. This ensures that the diffuser is correctly positioned during the actuation of the dispensing element.
  • the trigger may include a window through which the cannula passes.
  • the device may comprise a locking member adapted to limit the movement of the trigger so as to prevent actuation of the dispensing element.
  • the locking member may for example comprise a rod adapted to pass through a slot provided in the trigger, the rod may comprise a shoulder on which a portion of the trigger is adapted to bear.
  • the rod may in particular be integral with the mounting member and be obtained from molding from one piece with the other components of the dispensing head. Of course, any other locking member can be used.
  • the container may contain a cosmetic product.
  • the device is particularly useful for packaging and dispensing a cosmetic product, especially in the form of a cream, a mousse, a gel or a spray.
  • the device 1 comprises a container 10, made for example of thermoplastic material. It is obvious that any other material can be used to make the container and in particular tinplate or aluminum.
  • the container 10 comprises a body 11, for example of generally spherical shape which has an open neck 12 in which is mounted a pump 20 of longitudinal axis X, via a fixing skirt 23 which is fixed on the wall
  • the container may alternatively have any other shape, in particular a cylindrical shape.
  • the pump 20 which is not shown in detail in the figures, is a standard pump, preferably with precompression.
  • the pump comprises a piston whose movement inside the pump body, in one direction, causes the product to exit under pressure, and in the other direction, causes the product to be sucked into the pump body.
  • the piston is constrained in its position corresponding to the maximum volume of the chamber of pumping by means of a spring.
  • the pump comprises an actuating rod 21 which can be displaced along its longitudinal axis by exerting a pressure on it to actuate the pump.
  • the container 10 is surmounted by a dispensing head which can be fixed to the pump 20 by means of a mounting member 30 in the form of a hoop.
  • the hoop 30 is fixed, for example by snapping, on the pump.
  • the hoop 30 comprises for example an annular bead 36 configured to be housed in a rod 22 provided on the fixing skirt 23 of the pump.
  • the hoop 30 could comprise a bead 36 on its lower edge intended to be housed under the lower edge of the fixing skirt 23 of the pump.
  • the hoop 30 has two extra thicknesses 31, diametrically opposed, each forming a flange 32 on the outer surface of the hoop.
  • the two edges 32 thus formed, visible on the Figures 1 and 2 serve as a bearing surface for the tool used to snap the hoop onto the pump.
  • the dispensing head further comprises a diffuser 40 configured to drive the actuating rod 21 of the pump longitudinally in order to actuate it, the diffuser further delimiting a channel 47 provided for conveying the product from the container from the stem. actuating to a spray orifice 45.
  • the diffuser 40 includes a sleeve 41 for engaging directly on the actuating rod.
  • the sleeve 41 defines a first portion of the routing channel 47 of the product.
  • the delivery channel 47 is extended by a second portion, transverse to the first, which is delimited by a cannula 44.
  • the cannula 44 is of elongate shape along an axis substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis X of the pump, and extends from the sleeve 41 to an end opening through the spray orifice 45.
  • the end of the cannula 44 comprises a nozzle holder 48, provided with a pad also called “centerpost”, on which can be fixed an effect nozzle Vortex 49, conventional, as can be seen in the figures, the nozzle defining the spray orifice 45.
  • the presence of the nozzle makes it possible to spray the product in the form of a spray of good quality.
  • the diffuser 40 also comprises a cylindrical skirt 42 which surrounds the sleeve 41 and which is closed in its upper part by a transverse wall 43.
  • the transverse wall 43 is provided with two straight and parallel recesses 46, visible on the figures 2 and 4 whose function will be explained later in the description.
  • the diffuser 40 Since the diffuser 40 is intended to drive the actuating rod, it must be able to move relative to the hoop 30, which itself is fixed on the container. It is preferably provided that the cylindrical skirt 42 of the diffuser has a diameter substantially smaller than the diameter of the hoop 30 so as to form an annular space 37 between the two parts which allows the diffuser to sink inside the hoop.
  • the diffuser 40 is connected, before a first actuation of the dispensing element, to the band 30 by at least one material bridge 50 which connects the lower edge 42a of the skirt 42, at the edge 30.
  • four material bridges 50 are provided between the two parts.
  • the material bridges 50 extend transversely to the X axis in the annular space 37.
  • the material bridges 50 are sufficiently strong to hold the diffuser on the hoop when assembling the head on the container but sufficiently weak to break during the first depression of the diffuser 40 actuating the pump 20.
  • the hoop 30 and the diffuser 40 are thus obtained molding from a single piece.
  • the diffuser 40 When the head is assembled on the container, the diffuser 40 is in a position such that it is not in fluid communication with the actuating rod 21 of the dispensing member.
  • the sleeve 43 of diffuser is above the actuating rod 21, and is flush with the upper end of the actuating rod 21 as can be seen on the figure 8 , without being fitted on it.
  • the material bridges 50 thus make it possible to maintain the diffuser at the desired distance from the pump before a first actuation. They also constitute tamper pins that ensure the user who buys a device that it has never been used.
  • the diffuser 40 is further connected to the band 30 by a flexible band 35 which allows the movement of the diffuser relative to the mounting member.
  • a flexible band 35 keeps the two parts integral with each other after the rupture of the material bridges 50 so as to limit the risk that the diffuser is lost.
  • a trigger 60 is provided to control the actuation of the pump by pressing the diffuser 40, which itself drives the actuating rod 21.
  • the trigger 60 is formed by a bent lever arm having two portions 61 and 62 forming an angle between them, the trigger 50 having a longitudinal axis extending in a plane parallel to the axis X.
  • the first portion 61 has a first end 61a articulated on the hoop 30 so as to allow the trigger 60 to rotate around of an axis perpendicular to the axis X.
  • the first end 61a is articulated on an intermediate element 33, integral with the hoop 30, which allows to move the hinge of the hoop in order to allow the trigger to pivot.
