Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de conditionnement et de distribution pour un produit liquide ou semi-liquide.The invention relates to a packaging and dispensing device for a liquid or semi-liquid product.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un dispositif de conditionnement et de distribution pour un produit liquide ou semi-liquide, comportant un réservoir sensiblement axial comportant une paroi supérieure sensiblement transversale et horizontale munie d'un col qui reçoit un organe de libération, notamment une pompe sortant dudit réservoir, et un organe d'actionnement surmontant l'organe de libération qui est susceptible d'être sollicité pour éjecter une quantité dudit produit hors dudit réservoir à travers ledit organe d'actionnement, ledit dispositif comportant un capot qui est reçu sur le col et qui coiffe l'organe de libération et la paroi supérieure,The invention more particularly relates to a packaging and dispensing device for a liquid or semi-liquid product, comprising a substantially axial reservoir comprising a substantially transverse and horizontal upper wall provided with a neck which receives a release member, in particular a pump leaving said reservoir, and an actuating member overcoming the release member which is capable of being biased to eject a quantity of said product from said reservoir through said actuating member, said device comprising a cover which is received on the collar and which caps the release member and the upper wall,

On connaît de nombreux exemples de dispositifs de conditionnement de ce type. Voir par exemple EP 1 974 829 .Many examples of such packaging devices are known. See for example EP 1 974 829 .

Il s'agit par exemple de flacons de parfumerie comportant un réservoir rigide, notamment métallique ou en verre, dont le col reçoit une pompe mécanique à actionnement axial formant l'organe de libération, actionnée par un bouton poussoir. Lorsque le flacon n'est pas utilisé, un capot peut être emboîté sur le col et sur une partie du corps de pompe faisant saillie hors du col pour protéger la pompe et le bouton poussoir.These are, for example perfume bottles having a rigid reservoir, in particular metal or glass, whose neck receives an axially actuated mechanical pump forming the release member actuated by a push button. When the bottle is not in use, a hood can be fitted on the neck and on a portion of the pump body protruding from the neck to protect the pump and the push button.

Dans un tel dispositif, la position axiale du capot est conventionnellement tributaire de son emboîtement sur le col et sur la partie du corps de pompe faisant saillie hors du col. De ce fait, la position du capot par rapport à la paroi supérieure sensiblement transversale et horizontale du flacon est déterminée par la position relative du capot par rapport au col et la partie du corps de pompe faisant saillie hors du col.In such a device, the axial position of the hood is conventionally dependent on its engagement on the neck and on the portion of the pump body projecting from the neck. As a result, the position of the cap relative to the substantially transverse and horizontal upper wall of the bottle is determined by the relative position of the cap relative to the neck and the portion of the pump body projecting from the neck.

Cette position étant établie plus ou moins précisément lors de l'emboîtement de ces éléments, il en résulte une grande imprécision de mise en position du capot par rapport à la paroi supérieure sensiblement transversale et horizontale du flacon.This position being established more or less precisely during the nesting of these elements, this results in a great inaccuracy of setting the hood in position relative to the substantially transverse upper and horizontal wall of the bottle.

Cette imprécision est d'autant plus grande que la position par rapport au flacon du corps de la pompe, qui constitue un référentiel de l'emboîtement entre le capot et le flacon, est sujette à des imprécisions de mise en position.This inaccuracy is even greater than the position relative to the vial of the body of the pump, which is a reference of the interlocking between the cover and the bottle, is subject to imprecision setting.

Ainsi, il peut subsister un jeu important entre le capot et la paroi supérieure sensiblement transversale et horizontale du flacon. Ce jeu, outre qu'il est inesthétique, peut permettre la pénétration de corps étrangers entre le capot et la paroi supérieure du flacon.Thus, there may remain a large clearance between the cover and the substantially transverse and horizontal upper wall of the bottle. This game, besides being unsightly, can allow the penetration of foreign bodies between the cover and the top wall of the bottle.

L'invention remédie à cet inconvénient en proposant un capot réalisé en deux parties interne et externe, un moyen de d'ajustement de jeu étant interposé entre lesdites parties pour permettre, lors d'un montage initial de la partie externe sur la partie interne, l'ajustement du capot avec la face transversale du réservoir selon un jeu réduit.The invention overcomes this drawback by proposing a cover made in two internal and external parts, a game adjustment means being interposed between said parts to allow, during an initial assembly of the outer part on the inner part, the adjustment of the hood with the transverse face of the tank in a reduced game.

Dans ce but, l'invention propose un dispositif de conditionnement et de distribution pour un produit liquide ou semi-liquide du type décrit précédemment, caractérisé en ce que le capot comporte au moins un premier élément interne qui est susceptible d'être reçu axialement de manière amovible sur le col selon une position axiale déterminée, et un second élément externe comportant une paroi périphérique qui est emboîté sur ledit premier élément par l'intermédiaire d'un moyen de fixation à rattrapage de jeu pour, lors d'un montage initial du second élément externe sur le premier élément interne, permettre l'ajustement du capot avec la face transversale du réservoir selon un jeu réduit.For this purpose, the invention proposes a device for packaging and dispensing for a liquid or semi-liquid product of the type described above, characterized in that the cover comprises at least a first internal element which is capable of being received axially from detachably on the neck in a determined axial position, and a second outer member having a peripheral wall which is fitted on said first element by means of a catch-up fixing means for, during an initial assembly of the second outer member on the first inner member, allow adjustment of the hood with the transverse face of the tank in a reduced game.

Dans la description qui va suivre, des chiffres de référence identiques désignent des pièces identiques ou ayant des fonctions similaires.In the following description, like reference numerals designate like parts or having similar functions.

On a représenté à la figure 4A un dispositif 10 de conditionnement et de distribution pour un produit liquide ou semi-liquide.We have shown Figure 4A a device 10 for packaging and dispensing for a liquid or semi-liquid product.

De manière connue, le dispositif 10 comporte un réservoir 12 sensiblement axial, par exemple et de manière non limitative de l'invention, un flacon en verre 12, comportant une paroi supérieure 14 sensiblement transversale et horizontale munie d'un col 16 qui reçoit un organe de libération 18 du produit.In known manner, the device 10 comprises a substantially axial reservoir 12, for example and without limitation of the invention, a glass vial 12, comprising a substantially transverse and horizontal upper wall 14 provided with a neck 16 which receives a release member 18 of the product.

L'organe de libération 18 peut être réalisé selon différentes configurations sans que ceci soit limitatif de l'invention. Il peut s'agir d'un simple orifice comme d'un ensemble plus complexe.The release member 18 may be made in different configurations without this being limiting of the invention. It can be a simple hole as a more complex set.

Sur les figures 2 à 4A, par exemple, on a représenté un organe de libération constitué d'une pompe mécanique 18 à actionnement axial dont un tube 17 plonge dans le réservoir et dont un corps 19 sort du réservoir 12.On the Figures 2 to 4A for example, there is shown a release member consisting of a mechanical pump 18 for axial operation, a tube 17 immersed in the tank and a body 19 out of the tank 12.

Le dispositif 10 comporte un organe 20 d'actionnement, par exemple un bouton poussoir 20 surmontant l'organe de libération 18 qui est susceptible d'être sollicité pour éjecter une quantité dudit produit hors dudit réservoir 12 à travers ledit organe 20 d'actionnement.The device 10 comprises an actuating member 20, for example a push button 20 surmounting the release member 18 which can be biased to eject a quantity of said product from said reservoir 12 through said actuating member 20.

Le dispositif 10 comporte par ailleurs de manière connue un capot 22 qui est reçu sur le col 16 et qui coiffe l'organe de libération 18 et la paroi supérieure 14.The device 10 also comprises, in a known manner, a cover 22 which is received on the neck 16 and which covers the release member 18 and the upper wall 14.

Dans un tel dispositif tel que connu de l'état de la technique, le capot 22 est conventionnellement monobloc et à ce titre, sa position axiale par rapport à la paroi 14 transversale supérieure 14 du réservoir 12 dépend de son emboîtement sur le col 16, et en particulier de la position relative du capot 22 par rapport au col 16 et/ou à la partie de l'organe 18 de libération, ici le corps 19 de la pompe 18, qui fait saillie hors du col 16.In such a device as known from the state of the art, the cover 22 is conventionally monobloc and as such, its axial position relative to the upper transverse wall 14 of the reservoir 12 depends on its engagement on the neck 16, and in particular the relative position of the cover 22 with respect to the neck 16 and / or the part of the release member 18, here the body 19 of the pump 18, which projects out of the neck 16.

Ainsi, il peut subsister un jeu important (non représenté) entre le capot 22 et la paroi supérieure 14 sensiblement transversale et horizontale du flacon 12 formant réservoir. Ce jeu n'est d'une part pas esthétique et d'autre part il peut permettre la pénétration de corps étrangers entre le capot 22 et la paroi supérieure 14 du réservoir 12.Thus, there may remain a large clearance (not shown) between the cover 22 and the substantially transverse and horizontal upper wall 14 of the bottle 12 forming a reservoir. This game is on the one hand not aesthetic and on the other hand it can allow the penetration of foreign bodies between the cover 22 and the upper wall 14 of the tank 12.

L'invention remédie à cet inconvénient en proposant un capot 22 réalisé en deux parties entre lesquelles sont interposés des moyens de rattrapage de jeu pouvant être mis en oeuvre lors de l'assemblage du capot 22, et permettant de minimiser le jeu entre le capot 22 et la paroi supérieure 14 du réservoir 12.The invention overcomes this disadvantage by providing a cover 22 made in two parts between which are interposed play catching means that can be implemented during the assembly of the cover 22, and to minimize the clearance between the cover 22 and the upper wall 14 of the tank 12.

Dans ce but, l'invention propose un dispositif 10 du type décrit précédemment, caractérisé en ce que le capot 22 comporte au moins un premier élément interne 24 qui est susceptible d'être reçu axialement de manière amovible sur le col 16 selon une position axiale déterminée, et un second élément externe 26, comportant une paroi périphérique 58, qui est emboîté sur ledit premier élément 24 par l'intermédiaire d'un moyen 27 de fixation à rattrapage de jeu.For this purpose, the invention proposes a device 10 of the type described above, characterized in that the cover 22 comprises at least a first internal element 24 which is capable of being axially received removably on the neck 16 in an axial position. determined, and a second outer member 26, having a peripheral wall 58, which is fitted on said first member 24 via a means 27 for catch-up fixing clearance.

Cette configuration permet, comme représenté figures 2 à 4A, au cours des différentes étapes de montage, de permettre l'ajustement du capot 22, et plus particulièrement du second élément externe 26 avec la paroi supérieure 14 du réservoir 12 selon un jeu "J" aussi réduit que possible, comme représenté à la figure 4.This configuration allows, as shown Figures 2 to 4A during the various assembly steps, to allow adjustment of the cover 22, and more particularly of the second outer member 26 with the upper wall 14 of the reservoir 12 according to a "J" game as small as possible, as shown in figure 4 .

Plus particulièrement, comme l'illustrent les figures 2 et 4B, le premier élément 24 comporte au moins un tronçon tubulaire supérieur 28 coaxial au col 16 dont une première portée 30 comporte une série de dents 32 espacées axialement selon un pas déterminé. Le pas choisi est par exemple de l'ordre de 0,3mm.In particular, as illustrated by the figures 2 and 4B , the first element 24 comprises at least one upper tubular section 28 coaxial with the neck 16, a first bearing surface 30 comprises a series of teeth 32 axially spaced at a determined pitch. The chosen pitch is for example of the order of 0.3mm.

Le second élément 26 comporte au moins un tronçon inférieur 34, complémentaire du tronçon tubulaire supérieur 28 du premier élément 24, qui comporte une seconde portée 36 comportant une série de dents 38 espacées axialement selon le même pas déterminé et qui sont complémentaires des dents 32 de la première portée 30.The second element 26 comprises at least one lower section 34, complementary to the upper tubular section 28 of the first element 24, which comprises a second span 36 comprising a series of teeth 38 axially spaced at the same determined pitch and which are complementary to the teeth 32 of FIG. the first litter 30.

Les dents 38 sont aptes à se déformer pour permettre la descente du tronçon interne inférieur 34 du second élément 26 le long du tronçon tubulaire supérieur 28 du premier élément 24. La descente provoque l'engagement réciproque des dents 32, 38 desdites première et seconde portées 30, 32 dès lors que le second élément 26 est sollicité axialement en emboîtement sur le premier élément 24, comme représenté à la figure 4A.The teeth 38 are able to deform to enable the lower internal section 34 of the second element 26 to descend down the upper tubular section 28 of the first element 24. The descent causes the teeth 32, 38 of said first and second spans to engage each other reciprocally. 30, 32 when the second element 26 is urged axially into engagement with the first element 24, as shown in FIG. Figure 4A .

Le moyen 27 de fixation à rattrapage de jeu est ainsi appelé moyen de fixation à crémaillère.The means 27 for catch-up adjustment play is thus called rack-and-pinion fastening means.

Le moyen 27 de fixation à rattrapage de jeu pourrait prendre de nombreuses formes.The catch-up means 27 can take many forms.

Par exemple, le premier élément 24 pourrait comporter au moins un tronçon tubulaire supérieur 28 coaxial au col 16 dont une première portée 30 intérieure comporterait une série de dents 32 et le second élément 26 pourrait comporter au moins un tronçon interne inférieur 34 qui comporterait une seconde portée 36 extérieure comportant une série de dents 38 complémentaires des dents 32 de la première portée 30.For example, the first element 24 could comprise at least one upper tubular section 28 coaxial with the neck 16, a first inner span 30 would include a series of teeth 32 and the second element 26 could comprise at least one lower internal section 34 which would comprise a second outer bearing 36 having a series of teeth 38 complementary to the teeth 32 of the first bearing 30.

Les dents 32, 38 pourraient être agencées seulement sur un secteur angulaire desdites portées 30, 36 et dans ce cas il serait nécessaire que les séries de dents 32 et 38 soient alignées les unes avec les autres pour pouvoir coopérer ensemble.The teeth 32, 38 could be arranged only on an angular sector of said bearing surfaces 30, 36 and in this case it would be necessary that the series of teeth 32 and 38 are aligned with each other in order to cooperate together.

Toutefois, dans le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les dents des première et seconde portées 30, 36 sont respectivement une portée externe 30 et une portée interne 36 des premier et second éléments 24, 26 et chaque série de dents annulaires 32 ou 38 est agencée sur la totalité de la périphérie de la portée 30, 36 associée, c'est-à-dire sur 360° autour de l'axe "A" du capot 22.However, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the teeth of the first and second bearing surfaces 30, 36 are respectively an outer bearing surface 30 and an inner bearing surface 36 of the first and second elements 24, 26 and each series of annular teeth 32 or 38 is arranged on the entire periphery of the bearing surface 30, 36 associated, that is to say 360 ° around the axis "A" of the cover 22.

Plusieurs configurations sont possibles pour déterminer la position axiale du premier élément interne 24 de manière univoque. Notamment, le premier élément interne 24 pourrait être fixé directement sur le col 16.Several configurations are possible to determine the axial position of the first internal element 24 unequivocally. In particular, the first internal element 24 could be fixed directly on the neck 16.

Toutefois, dans le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le dispositif 10 comporte un élément 40 intermédiaire tubulaire d'habillage du col 16 et de l'élément 18 de libération qui est fixé sur ledit organe de libération 18.However, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the device 10 comprises a tubular intermediate element 16 for covering the neck 16 and the release element 18 which is fixed on said release member 18.

Lorsque l'organe 18 de libération est une pompe, cet élément 40 permet notamment d'habiller la pompe.When the release member 18 is a pump, this element 40 allows in particular to dress the pump.

Ainsi, dans ce cas particulier qui n'est aucunement limitatif de l'invention, l'organe de libération 18 est conformé sous la forme d'une pompe 18 qui comporte une bague 42 de fixation qui est sertie sur le col 16.Thus, in this particular case which is in no way limitative of the invention, the release member 18 is shaped in the form of a pump 18 which comprises a fixing ring 42 which is crimped onto the neck 16.

L'élément 40 est lui aussi tubulaire, d'un diamètre correspondant à celui de la bague 42, et il est monté selon un ajustement serré sur cette bague 42.The element 40 is also tubular, of a diameter corresponding to that of the ring 42, and is mounted in a tight fit on this ring 42.

L'élément intermédiaire 40 reçoit le premier élément interne 24 selon la position axiale déterminée. Pour déterminer de manière univoque cette position, une extrémité inférieure 41 de l'élément intermédiaire 40 est reçue en butée axiale sur la paroi 14 supérieure sensiblement transversale et horizontale, comme l'illustre la figure 2.The intermediate element 40 receives the first inner element 24 according to the determined axial position. To unambiguously determine this position, a lower end 41 of the intermediate element 40 is received in axial abutment on the wall 14 superior transversally and horizontally, as illustrated by the figure 2 .

Par ailleurs, pour assurer un positionnement univoque du premier élément interne 24, l'élément intermédiaire tubulaire 40 d'habillage du col 16 comporte au moins une gorge annulaire externe 44 et une face 46 annulaire transversale de butée, qui est par exemple formée notamment à l'extrémité dudit élément intermédiaire 40.Moreover, to ensure a unambiguous positioning of the first internal element 24, the tubular intermediate element 40 for covering the neck 16 comprises at least one outer annular groove 44 and a transverse annular abutment face 46, which is for example formed in particular to the end of said intermediate element 40.

Le premier élément interne 24, quant à lui, comporte au moins un tronçon tubulaire inférieur 48 coaxial au col qui comporte au moins un ergot interne 50 ou "grain de riz" apte à être emboîté dans la gorge annulaire externe 44 de l'élément intermédiaire 40.The first internal element 24, meanwhile, comprises at least one tubular lower section 48 coaxial with the neck which comprises at least one internal lug 50 or "rice grain" adapted to be fitted into the outer annular groove 44 of the intermediate element 40.

On remarquera que l'ergot 50 pourrait aussi être remplacé par un bourrelet interne, ou un secteur angulaire de bourrelet annulaire interne, apte à être emboîté dans la gorge 44 annulaire externe de l'élément intermédiaire.It will be noted that the lug 50 could also be replaced by an internal bead, or an annular sector of internal annular bead, adapted to be fitted into the outer annular groove 44 of the intermediate element.

Comme l'illustrent les figures 1 et 2, le premier élément interne 24 comporte par ailleurs au moins une face annulaire interne 52 d'épaulement apte à être reçue en butée sur la face annulaire transversale 46 de butée de l'élément intermédiaire 40.As illustrated by Figures 1 and 2 , the first inner element 24 further comprises at least one inner annular shoulder face 52 adapted to be received abutting on the transverse annular abutment face 46 of the intermediate element 40.

Dans cette configuration, la position du premier élément interne 24 étant définie par rapport à l'élément intermédiaire 40, et la position de l'élément intermédiaire 40 étant définie par rapport à la paroi transversale supérieure 14 du réservoir 12, il sera compris que la position du premier élément interne 24 est donc définie de manière univoque par rapport à la paroi transversale supérieure 14 du réservoir 12.In this configuration, the position of the first inner element 24 being defined with respect to the intermediate element 40, and the position of the intermediate element 40 being defined with respect to the upper transverse wall 14 of the reservoir 12, it will be understood that the The position of the first internal element 24 is thus unequivocally defined with respect to the upper transverse wall 14 of the reservoir 12.

Conformément à l'invention, le premier élément interne 24 comporte une paroi transversale 54 qui s'étend transversalement à partir d'une extrémité inférieure 56 du tronçon tubulaire inférieur 48 dudit premier élément interne 24 jusqu'à la paroi périphérique 58 du second élément externe 26. Une face supérieure 62 de la paroi transversale 54 forme butée pour au moins un élément axial 64 qui s'étend radialement vers l'intérieur à partir d'une face interne 66 de la paroi périphérique 58 du second élément externe 26.According to the invention, the first inner member 24 has a transverse wall 54 extending transversely from a lower end 56 of the lower tubular section 48 of said first inner member 24 to the peripheral wall 58 of the second outer member. 26. An upper face 62 of the transverse wall 54 abutment shape for at least one axial member 64 which extends radially inward from an inner face 66 of the peripheral wall 58 of the second outer member 26.

Tout moyen connu de l'état de la technique peut convenir à la bonne réalisation de l'élément axial 64. Toutefois, de préférence, la face interne 66 de la paroi périphérique du second élément externe 26 comporte une pluralité de nervures axiales 64 réparties angulairement de manière régulière sur toute la périphérie de la face interne 66 de la paroi périphérique 58 du second élément externe.Any means known from the state of the art may be suitable for the good realization of the axial element 64. However, preferably, the inner face 66 of the peripheral wall of the second outer member 26 comprises a plurality of axial ribs 64 distributed angularly. evenly over the entire periphery of the inner face 66 of the peripheral wall 58 of the second outer member.

Chaque nervure 64 comporte avantageusement une face inférieure de butée 70 dont la position axiale permet, dès lors qu'elle est reçue en butée sur la face supérieure 62 de la paroi transversale 54 du premier élément interne 24, de transmettre au second élément 26 une sollicitation axiale confortant l'engagement des dents 32, 38 des première et seconde portées 30, 36 des premier et second éléments 24, 26.Each rib 64 advantageously comprises a bottom abutment face 70 whose axial position allows, since it is received in abutment on the upper face 62 of the transverse wall 54 of the first inner member 24, to transmit to the second element 26 a solicitation axial reinforcing the engagement of the teeth 32, 38 of the first and second bearing surfaces 30, 36 of the first and second elements 24, 26.

On remarquera entre autres avantages qu'un élément intermédiaire de lest (non représenté), de préférence annulaire, peut être interposé radialement entre le tronçon tubulaire inférieur 48 dudit premier élément interne 24 et la paroi périphérique 58 du second élément externe 26.Among other advantages, it will be noted that an intermediate ballast element (not shown), preferably annular, can be interposed radially between the lower tubular section 48 of said first inner element 24 and the peripheral wall 58 of the second outer element 26.

Selon son mode de fabrication cet élément de lest peut être venu de matière ou fixé à l'un ou l'autre des éléments interne 24 ou externe 26.According to its method of manufacture, this ballast element may have come from material or attached to one or other of the internal 24 or outer 26 elements.

Par ailleurs, une paroi supérieure 74 du second élément externe 26 peut comporte au moins une lumière 76 apte à recevoir par emboîtement un insert 78 complémentaire de ladite lumière, cet insert 78 pouvant être fixé dans la lumière par tout moyen connu de l'état de la technique.Furthermore, an upper wall 74 of the second outer member 26 may comprise at least one slot 76 adapted to receive by interlocking an insert 78 complementary to said light, this insert 78 being able to be fixed in the light by any means known to the state of the technique.

L'invention propose donc un dispositif 10 comportant un capot à rattrapage de jeu de conception simple et efficace.The invention therefore proposes a device 10 comprising a catch-up cover of simple and effective design.
