Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of bottles for cosmetic or care products and massage devices comprising such bottles. More particularly, the invention relates to bottles provided with a product applicator, for example a ball, a roller or a foam. Some of these applicators can be used as a massage member.
- a product applicator for example a ball, a roller or a foam.
- Cosmetic product means a product as defined in Council Directive 93/35 / EEC of 14 June 1993.
- Flasks with ball or roller applicators are already known in the state of the art.
- the patent application GB 843 315 describes a ball applicator.
- a ball holding device is attached to the neck of a bottle and includes openings, obstructed when the ball is plated by a screw cap.
- a disadvantage of this applicator is that, if the hood unscrews slightly, sealing is no longer ensured. The user is not alerted visually or tactilely of this defect.
- the lack of closure of the cap on the bottle imposes a screw diameter greater than the largest dimension of the applicator. In particular, this mode of closure is not suitable for massage devices having several balls aligned next to each other.
- the patent application FR 2 601 583 describes a manual massage device with several balls.
- the feed of the balls in product is regulated by a specific central device requiring additional parts.
- the sealing device pivots around a circle surrounding all the massage beads. This is very cumbersome when the massage beads are aligned.
- the patent application EP 1 618 809 discloses a cosmetic fluid dispenser comprising a cap rotatably mounted on a container provided with a massage ball. To do this, this hood has three bayonets screwing on three ears. Such a screwing movement is bulky for use in a massage apparatus with multiple aligned massage balls.
- the patent US 3,039,132 describes a dispensing apparatus equipped with an applicator of ellipsoid shape, elongated along an axis of rotation of the applicator.
- a lid presses the applicator to seal.
- the lid and the container have an elliptical horizontal section conforming to the shape of the applicator. They clap on each other by a rim around the container.
- Such a device has the disadvantage that the effort to open and close the lid must be greater than the plating force of the applicator to seal.
- Such a lid is hard to open and close.
- the patent application FR 2,650,563 discloses a vertical movement container shutter generated by a bracket integral with the container, having a lateral movement.
- the vial stopper supports an applicator roll. The whole is covered with a hood.
- Such a shutter requires two specific parts to seal in addition to the applicator roll and the cap.
- the invention provides a device for packaging and application for a cosmetic or care product that overcomes at least one of the above disadvantages.

- the device comprises a means for guiding the cover relative to the container configured so that the cover is guided or slides relative to the container in a translation path extending in at least two distinct directions.
- the guide means are configured so that the cover is guided relative to the container only or exclusively according to the translation path. In other words, the cover is not rotated about an axis coincident or parallel with an axis of a dispensing orifice of the container. The cover is not driven by a combined movement of translation and rotation about the axis of the dispensing orifice, such as screwing.
- translation is to be understood as moving in a straight or linear path.
- the translation path can be a path with two distinct inclinations, these paths in this case can define an angle between 110 and 160 °, more preferably between 120 and 150 ° and even more preferably between 130 and 145.
- the closure closing movement can contribute to obstructing the orifice by moving along at least one direction of translation inclined with respect to a direction of obstruction or plating, this allows the effort to close or opening the hood is not as high as the effort to seal. A simple transfer of effort is enough, there is no need for additional parts.

- the cover has at least a substantially rigid portion, the cover guiding means being designed so that, in an end portion of the closing path, the points of the rigid portion of the cover move parallel to each other.
- substantially rigid parts of the hood the parts likely to move en bloc when the cover is subjected to a normal manual closing operation. This does not include any elastic parts of the hood that can locally deform to contribute for example to a hood lock.
- the hood moves parallel to itself.
- at least the final part of the closure is in a translation or a succession of elementary translations of the cover, that is to say in a translation along a closing path that can be rectilinear or curvilinear.
- This does not require a rotation of the hood about an axis.

- the rotational movement allows a quantity of cosmetic or care product, adhered to the surface of the applicator element, to be transported from the outlet to the projecting portion, so as to be, at least in part , deposited on the body of the user.
- the rotational movement makes it possible to roll over the body to be massaged without requiring a high massage force.
- the applicator element protrudes partially out of said holding device.
- the device for holding the applicator element comprises a sealing collar against which said applicator element is able to selectively come into abutment so as to obstruct said collar.
- said holding device is made at least partly of a deformable material.
- the cover has a bearing area of the cover on said applicator member, said support zone having a recess so that the force exerted on the applicator element is less in the closed position than in a maximum tightening position.

- the device comprises a sealing means adapted to move an obstruction element in the direction of obstruction of the orifice.
- the locking means comprises a fixed bead and a lug movable in an elastic manner in a direction perpendicular to the final portion of the closing path and the general direction of the orifice.
- This makes it possible to lock the hood without releasing the plating force on the obstruction element. This reduces the closure force of the cover for the same level of sealing obstruction of the orifice.

This allows the plating force to be maintained when the bottle is closed and to absorb dimensional changes due to industrial manufacture of the massage device.
- the cover guiding means comprises two pairs of complementary guide elements corresponding to the applicator element with a plated applicator element.
- the two points of application of the forces of the two pairs of complementary guide elements and the point resulting from the support between the support zone and the plated applicator element together define a plane locking, parallel to the direction of obstruction of the sealing collar. This allows the manufacturing tolerances for closure of an applicator member to be independent of manufacturing tolerances for closing another applicator member of the same massage device. This provides great design flexibility for a range of massage devices, having different types of application members.
- At least one plated applicator element comprises a compressible foam part.

- container 17 arrives outside and is applied to the body part.
- the amount of cosmetic or care product thus transported from the interior of the container 17 to the body part is limited and controlled by the clearance existing between the applicator elements 7a, 7b and the corresponding sealing collars 20a, 20b.
- opening zones have a funnel shape so that by exerting a simple pressure of approximation of the two hands, the lateral lugs of the sidewalls 13a and 13a 'are guided in a position at the bottom of the corresponding opening zone.
- various positions 22 to 27 of the lateral lug 16a are shown inside the associated groove 12a when closing the hood on the main part 1.

- the hood 2 travels a closing path and passes through a position of beginning of obstruction of the mountain passes.
- Sealing 20a, 20b corresponding to the moment when the tubular lugs 15a, 15b bear against the spherical applicator elements 7a, 7b and press the applicator elements 7a, 7b in the low position against the seals 20a, 20b.
- the product outlet orifices are then obstructed by said product application members.
- This position of beginning of obstruction of the seals 20a, 20b corresponds to the position referenced 24 of the figure 4 .
- the tubular lugs 15a, 15b slide laterally over the protruding portion 8a, 8b of the applicator elements 7a, 7b and increase the sealing pressure on the seals 20a, 20b of the holding devices 18a, 18b. Due to the fact that the support pins 19a, 19b of the holding devices 18a, 18b have a diameter greater than the contact edge of the sealing necks 20a, 20b with the applicator elements 7a, 7b, the sealing collars flex elastically over the entire distance axial separating the start obstructing position 24 from the maximum clamping position 25.
- the front and rear flanks 13b 'of the cover 2 are aligned with the front and rear portions 55b and 55b' of the peripheral skirt 55 of the container 17.
- the peripheral skirt 13 of the cover 2 is offset laterally relative to the peripheral skirt 55 of the container 17.
- the peripheral skirt 13 of the cover 2 is aligned with the peripheral skirt 55.
- the translational path of the cover 2 comprises a final rectilinear or linear horizontal portion extending along the axis X transverse to the axes Za and Zb, and a straight or linear inclined portion at an angle ⁇ .
- This angle ⁇ may, for example, be between 110 ° and 160 ° and even more preferably between 130 ° and 145 °.
- the inclined portion may be configured to respectively bring the tubular lugs 15a, 15b of the hood up to or opposite the upper end of the applicator member 6a, 6b and the horizontal portion may be adapted to bring these pins in support on said applicator member so as to obstruct the corresponding product outlet port.
- the sliding of the cover is therefore performed in translation directions separate axes Za and Zb.
- the female groove 12a has a bottom or core 58 and two side flanks or side walls 57 parallel.
- the groove 12a could have non-parallel flanks, or only an upper flank 57 on which the lug 16a comes to slide.
- the angle ⁇ mentioned above corresponds to the angle of the flank 57 on which the lug 16a slides.
- the insertion zone 21a may comprise lateral flanks converging towards each other in order to facilitate the positioning and guiding of the lug 16a in the groove.
- the bottom 58 of the grooves has a fixed bead 26a adapted so that by continuing the closing path, the lateral lug 16a slides over said bead by deforming the lateral flank 13a of the cover 2 in the lateral direction Y, c ' ie according to a direction perpendicular both to the general directions of the orifice Za and Zb and to the final portion 28 of the closing path from the start obstructing position 24 to the locked position 27.
- the grooves 12a ', 12b and 12b' are identical to the groove 12 and also comprise locking beads.
- the closing path also has the guide start position 23, the obstruct start position 24, the maximum clamp position 25 and the locked position 27.
- the final portion of the closing path has another shape. not including a portion perpendicular to the general direction of the orifice.
- the final portion of the closing path going from the start obstructing position 24 to the locked position 27 can take any inclination with respect to the general direction of the orifice Za as soon as the user draws closing the hood by exerting an overall axial shearing movement between his two hands.
- the groove 12a female illustrated in figure 6 has an end portion 29 such that the locked position 27 of the lug 16a is higher than that of said lug 16a in maximum clamping position 25, while being much lower than the position of the beginning of obstruction 24.
- the elasticity seals 20a and 20b makes it possible to maintain the tightness of the obstruction.
- Such a groove 12a also constitutes a locking means. Indeed, to open the cover 2, the user must exert a reverse shear force to that of the closure to return to the maximum clamping position 25.
- the translation path of the cover 2 relative to the container is carried out here along a curvilinear path with two distinct curvatures whose axis is transverse to the axes Za and Zb, and offset laterally with respect to said axes.
- the trajectory presents two distinct directions that are the tangent to the trajectory of the lug 16a at the maximum clamping position 25 and the tangent to the path in guiding start position 23. These two directions form an angle ⁇ between them.
- the translation path can be likened to these two tangents. In the case of a groove 12a, 12a ', 12b, 12b' with parallel flanks 57, the angle ⁇ can be measured by considering planes tangent to the flanks of the groove.
- the angle ⁇ between the two directions of the translation path is measured by considering the side 57 of the guide means on which the lug 16a of the cover 2 slides or vice versa. Then the angle between the planes tangent to said flank 57 is measured at the location of the maximum tightening and at the beginning of the guidance.
- This angle ⁇ may have values similar to the angle ⁇ .
- the final portion of the ramp 30 is horizontal and comprises neither bead nor raised end position 29 raised. Thanks to the central recess 32a, 32b of the tubular stud 15a, 15b the plating force of the applicator element 7a against the sealing collar 20a passes through a maximum when the tubular stud 15a presses on the top of the the applicator element 7a, that is to say before reaching the locked position 27.
- one of the grooves 12a, 12a ', 12b, or 12b' has either a bead 26a or a final position 29 raised to ensure a locking of the cover 2.
- the complete absence of these forms of locking is also possible in the extent to which the lateral lugs of the cover 2 exert a friction force on the corresponding female grooves, because of the plating force maintained to seal the applicator element 7a or 7b against the sealing collar 20a or 20b.
- the holding devices 18a, 18b and the main part 1 have been made in one piece.
- the general directions Za and Zb of the two orifices are unchanged and all the variants envisaged previously as guide ramps can also be transposed to this embodiment.
- the axial distance along the main directions of the orifice Za and Zb separating the start obstruction position and the maximum clamping position is however reduced and corresponds to the elasticity of the shell of the cover 2 or the base part 3.
- the ceiling 14 of the cover 2 has two support zones 15a, 15a 'on two application members 41, 41'.
- the ceiling 14 also has a central rib 40 capable of obstructing an outlet orifice in the form of a supply channel (not visible) connecting the container 17 to a plurality of application members 41, 41 '. That the locking of the cover 2 on the main part 1 is exerted by a shearing movement between the two hands of the user, that is to say in a direction generally transverse to the general directions of the orifices of the applicators 41, allows to have an aligned series of applicators 41 with a smaller footprint of the device.
- the application members 50 comprise a fixed foam 51 fixed above unrepresented orifices.
- the ceiling 14 of the cap comprises protruding shapes 52 which slide on the foam 51 and finish their closing stroke by compressing said foam 51 opposite the outlet orifices, so that they are blocked by the foam 51 to the compressed state.
