Definitions

  • the present invention relates to packaging and application devices, in particular those intended to contain a cosmetic product.
  • French patent FR 2 515 941 discloses a device for packaging and applying mascara comprising a bottle that can be made of glass or molded plastic with a neck having an attached wiper member which can be more or less compressed by an adjusting ring screwed onto the neck .
  • a device whose bottle is not monolithic because having a reported wiper member is relatively complex and expensive.
  • French patent FR 2 733 734 discloses a packaging and application device comprising a bottle made monolithically with a plastic collar on which can be screwed a closure cap.
  • the neck has an inner section narrow enough to be used for spinning an applicator member connected by a rod to the closure cap.
  • Patents and applications for U.S. Patent 4,522,224 , US 5,466,081 , JP 2004-187901 , JP 2001-346626 US 2001/0052348 , US 3756731 and FR 2824244 still describe other conditioning and application devices.
  • the object of the invention is, according to one of its aspects, a packaging and application device as defined in claim 1.
  • the glass production of the bottle guarantees compatibility with any cosmetic or dermatological composition, whatever the solvents or active agents used. Glass is also an effective barrier against the diffusion of oxygen from the air or solvents. Thus, the risk of denaturation of the storage composition is reduced.
  • the use of glass reduces the accumulation of static electricity charges between the bottles on the packaging lines.
  • Another advantage of the invention is that from the same glass cane, it is relatively easy to make bodies of bottles of varying lengths and / or with different internal restrictions, which makes the bottle easily adaptable to various sizes and types of application elements.
  • the manufacturing tolerances imposed on the bottle may be low, which facilitates its production.
  • the applicator element may or may not be attached to the rod and may have a larger sectional area than the rod portion to which the applicator element is connected.
  • a portion of the stem can seal when the applicator closes the bottle.
  • the realization of the glass bottle makes it relatively hard, which facilitates the crushing of the plastic material of the rod and obtaining the desired seal.
  • the applicator on the bottle can be obtained simply, which simplifies the implementation of the applicator and the bottle.
  • the latter may in particular be devoid of threading, and the applicator may not have a corresponding closure cap.
  • the vial can be made with a relatively small outer section if desired.
  • the body of the bottle has a cylindrical side wall of revolution. This makes it easy to make the bottle by conventional techniques of shaping the glass, so to make the bottle with a particularly low cost. In addition, this can facilitate the removal of the product in the bottle, especially when the product is mascara and the application element is a brush.
  • the use of glass still gives the device an attractive appearance, allows the consumer to perceive the color of the product directly and avoids the use of an additional colored indicator.
  • the transparency of the bottle can allow the user to more easily evaluate the amount of product remaining and to take the product where it is on the inner surface of the bottle.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to reduce product losses and therefore to reduce the amount of product present in the bottle as much as possible.
  • the invention may allow, despite the presence of a relatively small amount of product, to be able to make up at least once all the eyelashes during the test of a new product, for example.
  • the portion of the rod arranged to engage friction in the neck has an annular boss.
  • a boss can be compressed, or even crash when the applicator is in place in the bottle, and can further improve the seal and / or make the bottle and the stem with wider manufacturing tolerances.
  • the applicator comprises a gripping portion made monolithically with the rest of the rod.
  • This gripping portion may comprise a flange arranged to abut axially against the upper edge of the neck.
  • the rod portion located outside the bottle, when the latter is closed, may for example have a length greater than or equal to that of the portion of the stem inside the bottle.
  • the stem may comprise a distal portion of generally frustoconical shape, converging towards the application element, which may facilitate the introduction of the rod through the neck and reduce the risk of creating an excess pressure in the bottle when returning the applicator or depression to the removal of the applicator.
  • the rod may comprise, in an exemplary embodiment, an inner recess which opens at the distal end of the rod, this inner recess serving for example to the attachment of the applicator element on the rod.
  • the application element is for example a brush as mentioned above, in particular a brush comprising a twisted metal core and bristles caught between the turns of the core.
  • the applicator element may also be other than a brush, in particular a brush without a twisted metal core, the bristles being for example retained by stamping in bores of the core.
  • the applicator element may also have no bristles and for example be constituted by a comb, which may comprise teeth made by plastic molding, in one piece with the rod if necessary.
  • the product contained in the bottle may be intended for application to keratinous fibers, comprising, for example, pigments or other fillers, for example constituted by mascara.
  • the application element may also include a flocked tip. If necessary, the wiping of the applicator element at the outlet of the vial can be carried out in a non-uniform manner, for example to locally provide a larger supply of product on the applicator element.
  • the bottle may comprise a body and a neck, the latter may have a wall thicker than the body so as to form a narrowing of the inner section of the bottle used for the spinning of the applicator element.
  • the neck may have an inner surface which, over a majority of the length of the neck, is cylindrical, in particular cylindrical of revolution.
  • the thickness of the glass at the body of the bottle may be less than or equal to 0.6 mm, for example.
  • the quantity of product contained in the bottle before the first use may be less than or equal to 3 ml, for example being less than or equal to 2 ml, or even 1 ml.
  • the neck comprises a constriction made by hot knurling.
  • the subject of the invention is also a method for promoting the sale of a cosmetic product, in which a sample constituted by a device is dispensed. realized in accordance with the invention, the bottle being filled with the product which is to promote the sale.
  • the device 1 for packaging and application shown in Figure 1 comprises firstly a bottle having a body 2 of longitudinal axis X and a neck 3 made monolithically with the body 2 by turning or knurling of a cane of mineral glass, and secondly a removable applicator 4 having a rod 24 shown in isolation in Figure 2, provided with an applicator element 6 formed in the example in question by a brush.
  • the body 2 contains a product P such as for example mascara, the volume of product being for example between 1 and 3 ml.
  • the rod 24 comprises a gripping portion 7 provided at its base with a collar 8 bearing axially against the upper edge of the neck 3 when the bottle is closed by the applicator, as can be seen in FIG. 1, and a distal portion 9 internally provided with a recess 10.
  • the latter serves in the example considered for the attachment of the applicator element 6, which comprises a metal core 11 constituted by two twisted branches of a wire folded on itself, hairs 12 being tight between the turns of the soul 11.
  • the neck 3 has, over a major portion of its length, an inner surface 13 which is cylindrical of revolution about the longitudinal axis X, of diameter adapted to the dewatering of the application element 6, for example more small diameter less than or equal to 4.30 mm.
  • the rod 24 has a portion 14 intended to engage frictionally in the neck 3 and provided with an annular boss 15 to improve the sealing of the closure, this boss 15 lying axially in the example considered substantially at level of the bottom end 16 of the recess 10.
  • the outer diameter d 1 of the portion 14, other than at the boss 15, is for example between 3 and 5 mm, being for example close to 3.95 mm.
  • the inner diameter of the surface 13 is for example between 3 and 5 mm, being for example close to 4.05 mm.
  • the radius of the half-circular boss 15 in section is for example between 0.1 and 0.3 mm, being for example of the order of 0.2 mm.
  • the thickness e of the side wall 25, cylindrical of revolution about the axis X, of the body 2 is for example between 0.4 and 0.7 mm, being for example of the order of 0.55 mm .
  • the diameter d 3 of the envelope surface of the applicator element 6 is greater than the inside diameter d 2 , so that the removal of the applicator 4 is accompanied by a spinning of the applicator element 6.
  • the inside diameter d 4 of the side wall 25 of the body 2 is, for example, less than or equal to 1.2 d 3 , better still 1.12 d 3 , which allows the user to load the element of application 6 with the product present in particular in the upper part of the side wall 25.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates an embodiment in which the application element 6 is constituted by a flocked end piece, attached to a housing 18. at the distal end of the stem 24.
  • the end piece is made in one piece by molding material with the rod 24.
  • the application element 6 is for example for the application of a product on the lips, for example a liquid lipstick or a lip gloss.
  • the wiping of the applicator element 6 at the outlet of the bottle may be non-homogeneous, especially when the applicator element has a free end 19 eccentric relative to the longitudinal axis X.
  • the upper face 20 of the applicator element can undergo a greater spin than its lower face 21.
  • the neck 3 can also be made with an outer groove 22 made by knurling, as illustrated in FIG. 4, this groove 22 defining a restriction of the inner section of the neck adapted to the diameter of the rod 24 of the applicator 4.
  • the device 1 may or may not be for single use.
  • the product P may contain fibers or other macroparticles such as flakes, for example.
