Definitions

  • the invention lies in the field of packaging. It relates more specifically to a tube head according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • EP 1 221 419 consists of a tube with internal thread but whose geometry requires the use of a very complex mold to ensure the demolding of the part which has a central pin. This solution is technically difficult and expensive in production.
  • the patent application EP 1,958,890 also has a tube whose orifice comprises a ring of teeth that allow the second tube with a thread to screw or snap.
  • a tube head according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in US 5,209,565 .
  • the method of manufacturing the tube heads of the state of the art is relatively complex and expensive.
  • a first object of the invention is to simplify the method of producing the tube head.
  • a second object of the invention is to facilitate the handling of the two tubes when mixing the contents.
  • a third objective is to improve the transfer of the contents of one tube into the other tube.
  • the tube head is formed integrally and performed by a molding process.
  • the head includes a first cylindrical wall having a thread on its outer surface and a second smaller cylindrical wall disposed within the first wall cylindrical, the two cylindrical walls being coaxial, the inner face of the second cylindrical wall having a discontinuous thread defined by a series of sectors and interruptions.
  • the invention also relates to an assembly formed of a tube head as described above on which is screwed another tube head.
  • the invention relates to a method of producing a tube head which comprises a demolding step of the internal thread which is performed by pulling.
  • One of the advantages offered by the invention and to be able to achieve a tube shoulder geometry in a single operation, is an unrealizable operation with the tubes of the state of the art, the latter consisting of two separate parts, the threading inside being on a piece clipped in the orifice, the vents being made in the clip.
  • the tube head 2 illustrated on the figure 1 constitutes an element of a first tube 4, itself being associated with a second tube 3 , the whole forming a packaging assembly 1 .
  • the second tube 3 is assembled by screwing into the orifice of the tube head 2 , then the contents of the tube 3 is transferred into the tube 4 , partially filled, so as to mix the two products just before use.
  • the first tube 4 is made of plastic
  • the second tube 3 can also be made of plastic but also of another material, eg aluminum.
  • the Figures 2 and 3 show the plastic tube 4 formed of a flexible cylindrical body 16 , connected to a head 2 made by a molding process.
  • a shoulder 6 provides the connection between the body 16 and a first cylindrical wall 7 comprising a thread 8 on its outer surface. This external thread 8 serves to close the tube 4 by a screw cap not shown.
  • a second cylindrical wall 9 smaller inside the first cylindrical wall 7 , defines the orifice of the tube 4.
  • On the internal face of the cylindrical wall 9 is a discontinuous threading 10 , 11 defined by a sequence of sectors 10 and interruptions 11 . This discontinuous threading 10 , 11 makes it possible to ensure the connection of the second tube 3 to the first tube 4 .
  • the interruptions 11 constitute passages for the evacuation of the air when the product of the tube 3 is transferred into the tube 4 .
  • a notch 12 at the end of the cylindrical wall 9 allows the escape of air in the case where the tube 3 is screwed down, that is to say when the tube 3 abuts on the edge upper part of the second cylindrical wall 9 .
  • the second cylindrical wall 9 is connected, at its base, to the cylindrical wall 7 by an annular partition 14 , the three surfaces delimiting a cavity 15 which, as will be seen below, plays an important role in the method of embodiment according to the invention.
  • the tube head 2 according to the invention is designed so that its industrial production is economical and achievable with usual production means, without special devices.
  • the head 2 of the tube 4 is obtained by molding in one step.
  • the geometry of the head is designed so that the release of the internal thread is achieved by pulling.
  • the mold parts are driven solely by translations, which are conventional movements in the mechanisms for actuating molds, which are much simpler to implement than combined rotation / translation mechanisms as described in the state of the art.
  • the figure 4 shows the relative position of the parts before demolding, more precisely the rod 13 whose periphery comprises the negative surfaces of the interrupted threading 10 , and the sleeve 14 delimited by the surfaces of the cavity 15 .
  • the figure 5 shows the first phase of demolding: the sleeve 14 has been translated so as to release the surfaces of the cavity 15 .
  • the figure 6 shows the demolding phase of the internal thread: the rod 13 has made a translation so as to demold the inner thread 10 by tearing. This operation is facilitated by the fact that the outside of the cylindrical wall 9 is in the void of the cavity 15 and can temporarily deform concentrically.
  • the fact that the internal thread 10 , 11 consists of several sectors 10 facilitates the deformation of the cylindrical wall 9 .
  • the temporary concentric deformation of the cylindrical wall 9 makes it possible on the one hand to limit the tensile stress on the sectors 10 and on the other hand to minimize the deformation of the profile of the net.
