Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fluid dispenser assembly more particularly suitable for dispensing pasty products, such as creams, gels, ointments, etc.
- the present invention will find a preferred application in the fields of cosmetics, pharmaceuticals or even perfumery.
- FR 2 822 808 which describes a fluid dispenser assembly comprising a dispenser and a wrapper wrapping the dispenser.
- the dispenser is in the form of a relatively flat small pocket defining a dispensing orifice on one of its edges. This dispensing orifice is initially closed by a cap that can be removed, in particular by tearing.
- the packaging hides the small pocket, but defines a notch at which the removable cap is positioned. For this, the notch is defined on a side edge of the packaging.
- Another set of packaging is known from the document FR 2 822 809 .
- the present invention therefore aims to define a fluid dispenser assembly more suitable for dispensing pasty or creamy product.
- the fluid product must be easily recoverable by the user without spreading everywhere.
- the assembly must be easy to grasp to allow the user to easily recover the fluid.
- the set must also be aesthetic and allow easy and extensive affixation of indications of all kinds, such as a mark, logo, decor or text.
- the present invention provides a fluid dispenser assembly, comprising a fluid dispenser comprising a fluid reservoir and a closure member, the reservoir comprising at least one flexible sheet provided with an opening cut in the sheet, the shutter member being mounted in said opening, and a flexible covering enveloping the dispenser, the covering comprising a window through which the shutter member is accessible, characterized in that the opening and the window define respective perimeter plane edges superimposed.
- the dispensing orifice of the present invention is located on the flexible sheet, i.e. away from the edges of the leaf and dressing.
- the dispensing orifice is thus located in a substantially flat surface thus favoring the recovery of the dispensed fluid product.
- the aperture and the window define respective planar peripheral edges which are located one above the other superimposed.
- the dispenser is permanently fixed in the casing.
- the closure member comprises permanent or defeasable holding means capable of fixedly receiving the peripheral edge of the window.
- the holding means comprise an external peripheral groove in which the edge of the window is housed, advantageously by snapping.
- the window is initially closed by a removable flap.
- the flap is formed by the covering and delimited by predetermined breaking zones.
- the user removes the removable flap and thus accesses the shutter member.
- the removable flap is no longer repositionable, so that its withdrawal gives an indication to the user of the early use of the set.
- the removable flap thus fulfills a first-use safety function.
- the removable flap aesthetically complete the dressing so that a decor can extend over the entire skin, including the flap.
- the dispenser comprises a front sheet and a back sheet, advantageously connected in one piece, the sheets being sealed together on their peripheries, the front sheet forming the opening, advantageously cut substantially centrally in the sheet before, the closure member comprising a peripheral flange on which a peripheral edge of the opening is fixed, preferably by welding.
- the covering may comprise a front face and a rear face, advantageously connected together in a single piece, the front face forming the window, advantageously cut substantially centrally in the front sheet, the dispenser being disposed between the face front and rear face with the shutter member placed at the window.
- the covering further comprises a sealing flap, preferably integrally connected to the front face, the rear face being fixed to this flap to close the package on the dispenser.
- the cladding thus forms a kind of case whose one face is pierced by a window.
- the window can have the most diverse forms. It can advantageously be centered, or on the contrary be arranged eccentrically.
- the dressing can be made from a single sheet of paper, cardboard, plastic, metal or a mixture thereof.
- the closure member defines a fluid dispensing orifice, advantageously disposed in a fluid product recovery cup, and comprises a repositionable sealing cap adapted to close the orifice and advantageously to cover the recovery cup.
- the dispensing assembly may have a substantially flat general configuration defining a plane, the dispensing orifice extending along an axis which is substantially perpendicular to said plane.
- a principle of the invention is to dress aesthetically and functionally a dispenser whose fluid product outlet is located in a substantially flat sheet.
- the orifice is not located between two sheets, but on the contrary on a single sheet which is cut so as to form an opening which does not extend to the edge of the sheet. Therefore, the opening will be bordered by a sealing line for attaching the sheet provided with the opening to another element, such as another sheet.
- FIG. 1 A fluid dispenser assembly according to the invention.
- This set comprises three constituent elements, namely a fluid reservoir 1, a closure member 2 and a covering 3.
- the reservoir 1 and the closure member 2 are assembled to form a fluid dispenser.
- the reservoir 1 is made of a flexible material, such as for example sheets made from a laminated complex of aluminum and plastic. It is also possible to use simple plastic sheets, paper, metal, etc.
- the reservoir is in the form of a small flat bag comprising a front sheet 11 and a rear sheet 12 which can advantageously be made in one piece, that is to say with a common edge 112. It can also be realized tank from two separate sheets 11 and 12.
- the sheets 11 and 12 are superimposed and are sealed on their periphery 13. The sealing may advantageously be performed by welding. It is then advantageous to use plastic sheets or with a plastic coating. Sealing can be performed on the entire periphery of the sheets, including at the common edge 112.
- the sealing is performed on three sides, the side formed by the common edge 112 is not sealed.
- the front sheet 11 is formed with an opening 14 defining a peripheral edge 15.
- This opening 14 is here formed substantially in the center of the sheet 11. It is also possible to position this opening 14 in a non-centered manner, but always away from the outer edges of the sheet 11. In other words, the opening 14 is entirely surrounded by a peripheral edge 15 formed by the sheet 11. The opening 14 therefore extends in the plane of the sheet 11, as the peripheral edge 15.
- the shutter member 2 is positioned at the opening 14 of the sheet 11 so as to close the opening 14.
- the shutter member 2 has the function of allowing the fluid product stored at the outlet to be released.
- the closure member defines a fluid dispensing orifice 210 which communicates the interior of the tank with the outside.
- the closure member comprises a closure member for sealingly closing the dispensing orifice.
- This shutter member comprises three parts, even if they can be made in one piece.
- the shutter member comprises a bottom 21 defining a recovery cup 211, the dispensing orifice 210 and a peripheral edge 212.
- the recovery cup 211 has a preferably concave configuration.
- the dispensing orifice 210 is positioned in the center of the cup 211.
- the peripheral edge 212 surrounds the recovery cup 211.
- the outer peripheral edge of the cup 211 protrudes beyond the border 212.
- the second piece of the closure member is a ring 22 which is advantageously connected to the bottom 21 by a material bridge 24.
- the ring forms an annular fixing zone 222 which surrounds a projecting annular rim 224.
- the rim defines an annular peripheral groove 223 which will serve holding means for the covering 3, as will be seen below.
- the ring 22 is disposed on the edge 212 so as to surround the recovery cup 211. This is visible on the Figures 7 and 8 .
- the ring 22 is positioned in the same plane as the bottom 21. It is then possible to return the ring 22 on the bottom 21 by pivoting by deforming the material bridge 24.
- the peripheral zone annular fixing 222 extends around the groove 223. This fastening zone 222 will be used for fixing the sheet 11 of the reservoir. More precisely, as can be seen from the Figures 7 and 8 , the edge 15 of the opening 14 is sealed, advantageously by welding, on the fastening zone 222 of the ring 22. The sealing is performed over the entire periphery of the ring so as to make a sealed contact.
- the third piece of the shutter member is a repositionable shutter cover 23 which defines a shutter needle 230 intended to be housed in a sealed manner in the dispensing orifice 210 of the bottom 21.
- the cover also covers the The lid 23 is connected to the crown by a hinge 232. Initially, as shown in FIG. figure 9 , the cover 23 extends substantially in the same plane as the ring 22 and is connected thereto by several bridges of breakable material 233. Otherwise, the outer edge of the cover is separated from the ring by arcuate slots 234. Before the first use, bridges of breakable material 233 are intact. This gives the user an indication that the shutter member has never been opened before. These bridges 233 therefore fulfill a first-use safety function.
- the ring 22 is fixed permanently on the edge 212 of the bottom 21, for example by welding. It should be noted that only the sheet 11 is fixed on the shutter member 2.
- the back sheet 12 has no attachment point with the shutter member 2. This is not excluded, however.
- any suitable closure member may be used to allow fluid outlet from a reservoir formed from one or two flexible sheets.
- the repositionable shutter cover is even optional.
- the covering 3 comprises a front face 31 and a rear face 32, these two faces being able to be joined in one piece by a common edge 312.
- the front face 31 is formed with a window 34 defining a peripheral edge 35.
- the window 34 is located substantially in the center of the front face 31.
- the dressing also comprises a sealing flap 33 which is here connected to the front face 31.
- the flap 33 can be integrally formed with the front face 31 by defining a common edge 313, which is advantageously parallel to the edge 312 connecting the face front to the back.
- the first mounting step is to bring the dispenser 1 against the front face 31 so as to place the shutter member 2 in the window 34.
- the edge of the window can advantageously be snapped into the groove 223 of the body shutter.
- the sheet 11 of the tank may also be glued inside the front face 31.
- the second mounting operation is to fold the flap 33 on the distributor 1 so as to press against the rear sheet 12.
- the third operation is to fold the rear face 32 on the dispenser 1 so that the rear face 32 is pressed against the back sheet 12.
- the back sheet 12 can be glued to the rear face 32.
- the rear face 32 is finally attached to the flap 33, preferably by bonding or welding.
- the dispenser 1 is then completely wrapped by the covering 3. This is represented on the figure 2 . However, it is possible to see the dispenser 1 by the open sides of the casing 3. It is however not excluded to form the casing 3 with side flaps (not shown) to completely close the casing 3 on the dispenser 1 , so that it is not visible at all, except at its shutter member 2.
- edge 35 it is however not excluded to fix the edge 35 on the ring, for example by gluing or welding. Maintaining the edge 35 in the groove 223 can be done by snapping. In the absence of throat 223, the dispenser 1 can be held inside the casing 3 in any manner, for example by gluing. The edge 35 can be housed around the flange 224 on the zone 222. This makes it possible to center the dispenser, and more particularly its shutter member with respect to the window 34.
- the covering 3 is made of a flexible material, such as for example paper, cardboard, plastic or metal. Once wrapped around the dispenser 1, the front face 31, and preferably the rear face 32, have a certain flexibility allowing their deformation so as to bring them closer to and away from each other.
- the dispenser 1 may be substantially or completely identical to that of the first embodiment.
- the covering 3 differs from that of the first embodiment in that the window 34 is initially closed by a flap 36 which is advantageously integrally formed by the front face 31.
- the flap 36 is delimited by zones predetermined breaking points 37 which may be pre-cuts or weakened areas. To clear the window, as shown on the figure 5 it is sufficient for the user to pull the removable flap 36 to separate it from the sheet 31 at the predetermined breaking zones 37. Then, the user can make use of the assembly as in the first embodiment.
- the removable flap 36 preserves the integrity of the front face 31 so that it can be decorated without interruption at the window.
- the flap 36 can be positioned on the cover 23 and the flange 224 of the shutter member with the edge 35 of the window which is housed in the groove 223 or at least around the flange 224.
- the invention there is a fluid dispensing assembly that can be used in the manner of a conventional pot by maintaining the recovery cup 211 horizontally.
- the user holds all of one hand and presses on the front face 31 to remove the fluid.
- the user can then retrieve the product using the other hand. After use, the user can close the lid ensuring a perfect seal.
- the covering 3 of course makes it possible to improve the aesthetics of the dispenser 1, but also makes it possible to hold the assembly better in the hand and considerably increases the surface area for affixing indications, such as for example a decor, a logo , a mark or any other legal or useful indication.
- the dispensing assembly has a small thickness of the order of a few millimeters. It is relatively flat so fit into a plan. This allows you to insert it into magazines as an advertising sample. It should be noted, however, that the dispensing orifice 210 extends perpendicularly to the plane of the assembly.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un ensemble de distribution de produit fluide plus particulièrement approprié à distribuer des produits pâteux, tels que les crèmes, les gels, les pommades, etc. La présente invention trouvera une application privilégiée dans les domaines de la cosmétique, de la pharmacie ou encore de la parfumerie.The present invention relates to a fluid dispenser assembly more particularly suitable for dispensing pasty products, such as creams, gels, ointments, etc. The present invention will find a preferred application in the fields of cosmetics, pharmaceuticals or even perfumery.
Dans l'art antérieur, on connaît déjà le document
L'inconvénient avec ce type d'ensemble de distribution est que l'utilisateur a des difficultés à récupérer le produit fluide distribué par le distributeur. En effet, après avoir arraché le bouchon amovible, l'utilisateur appuie sur le conditionnement, ce qui a pour effet d'écraser la petite poche du distributeur. En conséquence, du produit fluide est distribué à travers l'orifice de distribution situé au fond de l'échancrure du conditionnement. On comprend qu'il n'est pas aisé de récupérer le produit au fond d'une petite échancrure. Ainsi, il arrive souvent que du produit fluide s'épande dans le conditionnement juste à côté de l'orifice de distribution. Cet ensemble de distribution de l'art antérieur n'est donc pas vraiment adapté à la distribution de produits pâteux comme les crèmes. II est plutôt approprié pour des produits plus fluides, comme le parfum, qui sont pulvérisés. Il n'y a pas de récupération de produit fluide directement à la sortie de l'orifice de distribution.The disadvantage with this type of dispensing assembly is that the user has difficulty in recovering the fluid dispensed by the dispenser. Indeed, after tearing the removable cap, the user presses the packaging, which has the effect of crushing the small pocket of the dispenser. As a result, fluid is dispensed through the dispensing orifice located at the bottom of the indentation of the package. We understand that it is not easy to recover the product at the bottom of a small indentation. Thus, it often happens that the fluid product spreads in the packaging just next to the dispensing orifice. This dispensing assembly of the prior art is not really suitable for the distribution of pasty products such as creams. It is rather suitable for more fluid products, such as perfume, which are sprayed. There is no fluid recovery directly at the outlet of the dispensing orifice.
Un autre ensemble de conditionnement est connu du document
La présente invention a donc pour but de définir un ensemble de distribution de produit fluide plus adapté à la distribution de produit pâteux ou crémeux. Le produit fluide doit pouvoir être récupéré facilement par l'utilisateur sans en répandre partout. L'ensemble doit pouvoir être saisi facilement pour permettre à l'utilisateur de récupérer aisément le produit fluide. L'ensemble doit également être esthétique et permettre une apposition facile et étendue d'indications de toutes sortes, comme une marque, un logo, un décor ou un texte.The present invention therefore aims to define a fluid dispenser assembly more suitable for dispensing pasty or creamy product. The fluid product must be easily recoverable by the user without spreading everywhere. The assembly must be easy to grasp to allow the user to easily recover the fluid. The set must also be aesthetic and allow easy and extensive affixation of indications of all kinds, such as a mark, logo, decor or text.
Pour atteindre ces différents objets, la présente invention propose un ensemble de distribution de produit fluide, comprenant un distributeur de produit fluide comprenant un réservoir de produit fluide et un organe d'obturation, le réservoir comprenant au moins une feuille souple pourvue d'une ouverture découpée dans la feuille, l'organe d'obturation étant monté dans ladite ouverture, et un habillage souple enveloppant le distributeur, l'habillage comprenant une fenêtre à travers laquelle l'organe d'obturation est accessible, caracterisé en ce que l'ouverture et la fenêtre définissent des bords périphériques respectifs plans superposés. Contrairement à l'ensemble de distribution de l'art antérieur dans lequel l'orifice de distribution est situé latéralement sur un bord, l'orifice de distribution de la présente invention est situé sur la feuille souple, c'est-à -dire en éloignement des bords de la feuille et de l'habillage. L'orifice de distribution est ainsi situé dans une surface sensiblement plane favorisant ainsi la récupération du produit fluide distribué. Selon l'invention, l'ouverture et la fenêtre définissent des bords périphériques respectifs plans qui sont situés l'un au-dessus de l'autre de manière superposée. De préférence, le distributeur est définitivement fixé dans l'habillage. Toutefois, il peut également être envisagé de pouvoir extraire le distributeur de son habillage. Avantageusement, l'organe d'obturation comprend des moyens de maintien définitifs ou défaisables aptes à recevoir fixement le bord périphérique de la fenêtre. De préférence, les moyens de maintien comprennent une gorge périphérique externe dans laquelle le bord de la fenêtre est logé, avantageusement par encliquetage. Ainsi, il n'est même pas nécessaire de coller le distributeur à l'intérieur de l'habillage. Cependant, dans certains cas, un collage alternatif ou supplémentaire est réalisé.To achieve these various objects, the present invention provides a fluid dispenser assembly, comprising a fluid dispenser comprising a fluid reservoir and a closure member, the reservoir comprising at least one flexible sheet provided with an opening cut in the sheet, the shutter member being mounted in said opening, and a flexible covering enveloping the dispenser, the covering comprising a window through which the shutter member is accessible, characterized in that the opening and the window define respective perimeter plane edges superimposed. In contrast to the prior art dispensing assembly in which the dispensing orifice is located laterally on an edge, the dispensing orifice of the present invention is located on the flexible sheet, i.e. away from the edges of the leaf and dressing. The dispensing orifice is thus located in a substantially flat surface thus favoring the recovery of the dispensed fluid product. According to the invention, the aperture and the window define respective planar peripheral edges which are located one above the other superimposed. Preferably, the dispenser is permanently fixed in the casing. However, it can also be envisaged to extract the dispenser of its dressing. Advantageously, the closure member comprises permanent or defeasable holding means capable of fixedly receiving the peripheral edge of the window. Preferably, the holding means comprise an external peripheral groove in which the edge of the window is housed, advantageously by snapping. Thus, it is not even necessary to stick the dispenser inside the dressing. However, in some cases, alternative or additional bonding is performed.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention, la fenêtre est initialement fermée par un volet amovible. Avantageusement, le volet est formé par l'habillage et délimité par des zones de rupture prédéterminées. Avant la première utilisation, l'utilisateur retire le volet amovible et accède ainsi à l'organe d'obturation. De préférence, le volet amovible n'est plus repositionnable, de sorte que son retrait donne une indication à l'utilisateur de la primeur d'utilisation de l'ensemble. Le volet amovible remplit donc une fonction de sécurité de premier usage. De plus, le volet amovible complète esthétiquement l'habillage de sorte qu'un décor peut s'étendre sur la totalité de l'habillage, y compris le volet.According to another aspect of the invention, the window is initially closed by a removable flap. Advantageously, the flap is formed by the covering and delimited by predetermined breaking zones. Before the first use, the user removes the removable flap and thus accesses the shutter member. Preferably, the removable flap is no longer repositionable, so that its withdrawal gives an indication to the user of the early use of the set. The removable flap thus fulfills a first-use safety function. In addition, the removable flap aesthetically complete the dressing so that a decor can extend over the entire skin, including the flap.
Selon une forme de réalisation pratique, le distributeur comprend une feuille avant et une feuille arrière, avantageusement reliées de manière monobloc, les feuilles étant scellées ensemble sur leurs périphéries, la feuille avant formant l'ouverture, avantageusement découpée de manière sensiblement centrale dans la feuille avant, l'organe d'obturation comprenant une bride périphérique sur laquelle un bord périphérique de l'ouverture est fixé, avantageusement par soudage. D'autre part, l'habillage peut comprendre une face avant et une face arrière, avantageusement reliées ensemble de manière monobloc, la face avant formant la fenêtre, avantageusement découpée de manière sensiblement centrale dans la feuille avant, le distributeur étant disposé entre la face avant et la face arrière avec l'organe d'obturation placé au niveau de la fenêtre. Avantageusement, l'habillage comprend en outre un rabat de scellage, avantageusement relié de manière monobloc à la face avant, la face arrière étant fixée à ce rabat pour refermer l'emballage sur le distributeur. L'habillage forme ainsi une sorte d'étui dont une face est percée d'une fenêtre. La fenêtre peut avoir les formes les plus diverses. Elle peut avantageusement être centrée, ou au contraire être disposée de manière excentrée. L'habillage peut être réalisé à partir d'une seule feuille de papier, de carton, de matière plastique, de métal ou un mélange de ceux-ci.According to a practical embodiment, the dispenser comprises a front sheet and a back sheet, advantageously connected in one piece, the sheets being sealed together on their peripheries, the front sheet forming the opening, advantageously cut substantially centrally in the sheet before, the closure member comprising a peripheral flange on which a peripheral edge of the opening is fixed, preferably by welding. On the other hand, the covering may comprise a front face and a rear face, advantageously connected together in a single piece, the front face forming the window, advantageously cut substantially centrally in the front sheet, the dispenser being disposed between the face front and rear face with the shutter member placed at the window. Advantageously, the covering further comprises a sealing flap, preferably integrally connected to the front face, the rear face being fixed to this flap to close the package on the dispenser. The cladding thus forms a kind of case whose one face is pierced by a window. The window can have the most diverse forms. It can advantageously be centered, or on the contrary be arranged eccentrically. The dressing can be made from a single sheet of paper, cardboard, plastic, metal or a mixture thereof.
Selon une forme de réalisation intéressante de l'invention, l'organe d'obturation définit un orifice de distribution de produit fluide, avantageusement disposé dans une coupelle de récupération de produit fluide, et comprend un couvercle d'obturation repositionnable apte à obturer l'orifice et à recouvrir avantageusement la coupelle de récupération. Ainsi, à chaque distribution de produit fluide, l'utilisateur peut le récupérer dans la coupelle de récupération puis obturer l'orifice de distribution en refermant le couvercle d'obturation.According to an interesting embodiment of the invention, the closure member defines a fluid dispensing orifice, advantageously disposed in a fluid product recovery cup, and comprises a repositionable sealing cap adapted to close the orifice and advantageously to cover the recovery cup. Thus, at each distribution of fluid product, the user can recover it in the recovery cup and then close the dispensing orifice by closing the closure lid.
Avantageusement, l'ensemble de distribution peut présenter une configuration générale sensiblement plate définissant un plan, l'orifice de distribution s'étendant selon un axe qui est sensiblement perpendiculaire audit plan.Advantageously, the dispensing assembly may have a substantially flat general configuration defining a plane, the dispensing orifice extending along an axis which is substantially perpendicular to said plane.
Un principe de l'invention est d'habiller de manière esthétique et fonctionnelle un distributeur dont la sortie de produit fluide est située dans une feuille sensiblement plane. L'orifice n'est pas situé entre deux feuilles, mais au contraire sur une seule feuille qui est découpée de manière à former une ouverture qui ne s'étend pas jusqu'au bord de la feuille. Par conséquent, l'ouverture sera bordée par une ligne de scellage permettant de fixer la feuille pourvue de l'ouverture à un autre élément, tel qu'une autre feuille.A principle of the invention is to dress aesthetically and functionally a dispenser whose fluid product outlet is located in a substantially flat sheet. The orifice is not located between two sheets, but on the contrary on a single sheet which is cut so as to form an opening which does not extend to the edge of the sheet. Therefore, the opening will be bordered by a sealing line for attaching the sheet provided with the opening to another element, such as another sheet.
L'invention sera maintenant plus amplement décrite en référence aux dessins joints donnant à titre d'exemples non limitatifs deux modes de réalisation de l'invention.The invention will now be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings giving by way of nonlimiting examples two embodiments of the invention.

Le réservoir 1 est réalisé en un matériau souple, comme par exemple des feuilles constituées à partir d'un complexe laminé d'aluminium et de plastique. On peut également utiliser de simples feuilles plastiques, de papier, de métal, etc. Le réservoir se présente sous la forme d'une petite poche plate comprenant une feuille avant 11 et une feuille arrière 12 qui peuvent avantageusement être réalisées de manière monobloc, c'est-à -dire avec une arête commune 112. On peut également réaliser le réservoir à partir de deux feuilles 11 et 12 séparées. Les feuilles 11 et 12 sont disposées de manière superposée et sont scellées sur leur périphérie 13. Le scellage peut avantageusement être réalisé par soudage. Il est alors avantageux d'utiliser des feuilles plastiques ou avec un revêtement plastique. Le scellage peut être effectué sur toute la périphérie des feuilles, y compris au niveau de l'arête commune 112. En pratique, le scellage est effectué sur trois côtés, le côté formé par l'arête commune 112 n'étant pas scellé. Selon un caractéristique intéressante de l'invention, la feuille avant 11 est formée avec une ouverture 14 définissant un bord périphérique 15. Cette ouverture 14 est ici formée sensiblement au centre de la feuille 11. Il est également possible de positionner cette ouverture 14 de manière non centrée, mais toujours en éloignement des bords externes de la feuille 11. En d'autres termes, l'ouverture 14 est entièrement entourée par un bord périphérique 15 formé par la feuille 11. L'ouverture 14 s'étend donc dans le plan de la feuille 11, tout comme le bord périphérique 15.The
L'organe d'obturation 2 est positionné au niveau de l'ouverture 14 de la feuille 11 de manière à fermer l'ouverture 14. L'organe d'obturation 2 a pour fonction de permettre la sortie du produit fluide stocké à l'intérieur du réservoir 1. Pour cela, l'organe d'obturation définit un orifice de distribution de produit fluide 210 qui fait communiquer l'intérieur du réservoir avec l'extérieur. Avantageusement, l'organe d'obturation comprend un élément de bouchage pour obturer de manière étanche l'orifice de distribution. On se référera maintenant aux
Bien entendu, Ă la place de cet organe d'obturation particulier des
L'habillage 3 comprend une face avant 31 et une face arrière 32, ces deux faces pouvant être reliées de manière monobloc par une arête commune 312. La face avant 31 est formée avec une fenêtre 34 définissant un bord périphérique 35. Dans l'exemple représenté, la fenêtre 34 est située sensiblement au centre de la face avant 31. D'autre part, l'habillage comprend également un rabat de scellage 33 qui est ici relié à la face avant 31. Le rabat 33 peut être formé de manière monobloc avec la face avant 31 en définissant une arête commune 313, qui est avantageusement parallèle à l'arête 312 reliant la face avant à la face arrière. La première étape de montage a consiste à rapporter le distributeur 1 contre la face avant 31 de manière à placer l'organe d'obturation 2 dans la fenêtre 34. Le bord de la fenêtre peut avantageusement être encliquetée dans la gorge 223 de l'organe d'obturation. La feuille 11 du réservoir peut aussi être collée à l'intérieur de la face avant 31. La deuxième opération de montage consiste à rabattre le rabat 33 sur le distributeur 1 de manière à le plaquer contre la feuille arrière 12. La troisième opération consiste à rabattre la face arrière 32 sur le distributeur 1 de sorte que la face arrière 32 se plaque contre la feuille arrière 12. La feuille arrière 12 peut être collée à la face arrière 32. La face arrière 32 est enfin fixée au rabat 33, avantageusement par collage ou soudage. Le distributeur 1 est alors entièrement enveloppé par l'habillage 3. Ceci est représenté sur la
Il suffit alors à l'utilisateur de soulever le couvercle 23 en cassant les ponts de matière 233 pour découvrir l'orifice de distribution 210 et sa coupelle de récupération 211. En pressant l'habillage 3 de manière à ramener la face avant vers la face arrière, le réservoir 1 est déformé et le produit fluide qu'il contient est mis sous pression de sorte qu'il est contraint de s'écouler à travers l'orifice de distribution 211. L'utilisateur peut alors récupérer le produit fluide accumulé dans la coupelle de récupération 211. Après utilisation, l'utilisateur peut refermer le couvercle 23 de manière à obturer l'orifice 210. En se référant à nouveau aux
L'habillage 3 est réalisé avec un matériau souple, comme par exemple du papier, du carton, de la matière plastique ou du métal. Une fois enveloppé autour du distributeur 1, la face avant 31, et avantageusement la face arrière 32, présentent une certaine souplesse permettant leur déformation de manière à les rapprocher et à les éloigner l'une de l'autre.The
En se référant maintenant aux
Grâce à l'invention, on dispose d'un ensemble de distribution de produit fluide qui peut être utilisé à la manière d'un pot classique en maintenant la coupelle de récupération 211 horizontalement. L'utilisateur tient l'ensemble d'une main et appuie sur la face avant 31 pour faire sortir le produit fluide. L'utilisateur peut alors récupérer le produit à l'aide de l'autre main. Après utilisation, l'utilisateur peut refermer le couvercle garantissant une parfaite étanchéité. L'habillage 3 permet bien entendu d'améliorer l'esthétique du distributeur 1, mais permet également une meilleure tenue de l'ensemble dans la main et augmente considérablement la surface d'apposition d'indications, comme par exemple un décor, un logo, une marque ou toute autre indication légale ou utile. L'ensemble de distribution présente une faible épaisseur de l'ordre de quelques millimètres. Il est relativement plat de manière à s'inscrire dans un plan. Ceci permet de l'insérer dans des magazines comme échantillon publicitaire. Il faut toutefois remarquer que l'orifice de distribution 210 s'étend perpendiculairement au plan de l'ensemble.Thanks to the invention, there is a fluid dispensing assembly that can be used in the manner of a conventional pot by maintaining the
