Definitions

  • the invention relates to cosmetic articles.
  • JP S60 134404 U describes a cosmetic article with a shutter.
  • An object of the invention is to preserve the cleanliness of the article during its use.
  • the article is self-cleaning.
  • the user has no particular action to make compared to its usual use of the product to clean the neck, because this cleaning is done during a conventional action of closing the product.
  • the or each scraper is able to clean the neck further during an opening of the reservoir.
  • the or each scraper is able to clean a top of the neck.
  • the or each scraper comprises two parts, one of the parts having a free end edge of the scraper and being made of a softer material than the other part.
  • the or each scraper deforms if it bears against the reservoir and ensures good contact between the scraper and the reservoir for better cleaning.
  • the shutter further comprises at least one housing adapted to collect the product removed from the neck by the scraper or scrapers.
  • the product is sent into the shutter where it does not interfere and is not visible to the user.
  • the or each housing is adjacent to the scraper (s).
  • the product is easily sent into the housing (s) by the scraper (s).
  • the scrapers are at least two in number.
  • the shutter comprises an even number of screw threads and an odd number of scrapers, preferably three or even five.
  • the article further comprises a wiper disposed within the reservoir and whose end closest to the orifice is set back from the latter.
  • the wiper does not interfere with the cleaning action of the scrapers.
  • the residual product when the article is opened by the applicator, it is first housed above the wiper while remaining in the neck. It is then hidden from view. At the next opening, the exit of the applicator carries this product and deposits it on the top of the neck. Finally, during the next closing, the scrapers win.
  • the shutter carries a makeup applicator rod, the rod having at least one groove not perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the rod.
  • a method of cleaning a reservoir of a cosmetic article according to claim 1, comprising a step of closing the article by screwing a shutter on the reservoir, so that at least one Shutter wiper cleans a neck of the tank.
  • the makeup article 10 illustrated at figure 1 comprises a reservoir 2 of product 30 and a shutter 1.
  • the article has a general axis 31, referenced to the figure 4 , corresponding to its longitudinal direction.
  • article 10 has a generally cylindrical shape with a square section, the square having its four slightly rounded sides.
  • the reservoir has a base ring 3 whose outside is visible. This corresponds to the top of the tank which it forms a neck 4 visible to Figures 2 and 3 . It is visible in more detail in the figure 10 .
  • the neck has a generally annular shape and has a circular apex 14.
  • the reservoir could have another shape in section, in particular a circular shape, or any other geometrical shape or not.
  • the figure 2 illustrates the article in open position. Indeed, the shutter is unscrewed from the reservoir, which in this case has two threads 5 at the neck 4.
  • the shutter carries a product applicator 6 via a rod 7, cylindrical of revolution.
  • the applicator 6 is here a brush which is fixed to the rod 7 by pressing and tightening.
  • the brush 6 is mainly cylindrical in shape, its radius being wider than that of the rod 7, and its free end 8 of conical shape.
  • the brush can be of any type. It is in this case a brush-type brush comprising bristles trapped between two twisted metal son. But it could also be a brush injected with one or more synthetic materials and bearing bristles and / or teeth in one piece with the rod.
  • the applicator could also form a comb rather than a brush. Such brushes are particularly suitable when the article includes mascara and is used for makeup eyelashes or eyebrows as is the case here.
  • the invention is also applicable to other make-up articles such as nail polish or lip gloss.
  • the applicator can then be formed by a brush used for nail polish or by a naked tip or having bristles deposited by flocking.
  • the figure 3 illustrates the article in an exploded way.
  • a cap 28 forming the outer part of the shutter 1 when the article is closed and a body 9 in one piece, rigidly fixed to the cap 28 and whose lower part forms the rod 7.
  • This body 9 has upper part an annular cavity 11 visible at the figure 7 , open downwards and having on its outer face an internal thread 32 also provided with two threads and allowing to screw the shutter on the thread 5 of the neck 4.
  • the body 9 also has the function of placing and holding one end of the rod 7 in the cap 28.
  • FIG 3 there is also a wiper 12 which is placed in the reservoir as described below.
  • the wiper 12 located in the neck 4, between the latter and the rod 7.
  • a free upper end 13 of the wiper 12 is set back from the free upper end 14 of the neck 4 in the axial direction , as can be seen in figure 5 .
  • the wiper wrings the applicator when it leaves the reservoir, before it reaches the neck, thanks to a frustoconical lower section of the wiper. A lower edge of this section provides an annular sealing function on the rod 7 in its upper part 15 when the article is closed.
  • the rod or the applicator deposits product 30, referenced to the figure 4 between the end 13 of the wiper and the top 14 of the neck 4.
  • this residual product is again carried by the rod or the applicator and this time deposited on the top 14 of the neck.
  • the product is brought from the reservoir to the top of the neck.
  • the invention also applies to a conventional type of wiper, which is mounted in the neck, and which seals by a frustoconical portion which receives a frustoconical portion of the rod. It can also be in support on the top of the pass. It is also possible that the neck of the tank has no wiper.
  • the Figures 8 and 9 illustrate the upper part of the body 9, housed in the cap 28.
  • These scraping elements each have a central portion 24 whose width increases between the central section 19 and the wall 27.
  • the element comprises two scrapers 25 and 25 'inclined towards the cavity 11.
  • the chamfer is optional. So there are eight scrapers here.
  • Four scrapers 25 are oriented clockwise, the other four referenced 25 'are oriented counterclockwise.
  • Each scraper has a lip forming its free end and oriented toward the cavity 11.
  • the shutter comprises a housing 33, referenced to Figures 4, 5 , 7 and 8 delimited by these elements and communicating with the cavity 11 through openings 20, 21, 22, and 23 located between the scrapers in the circumferential direction.
  • the thread 32 of the shutter cooperates with that of the neck 4 to give the body 9 a helical movement along the axis 31 of the article.
  • the scrapers 25 and 25 progress towards the top 14 of the neck 4 until they end up thereon.
  • the scrapers 25 or 25 capture the product which is passed through the openings 20, 21, 22, and 23 by the inclination of the scrapers and deposited in the housing 33
  • the four scrapers 25 pick up the product and bring it into the housing 33. In the closed position of the article, the scrapers remain in contact with the neck 4.
  • the central section 190 has longitudinal grooves 34 in its upper part. They allow the product to be guided either towards the neck or towards the reservoir by creep or flow depending on the viscosity of the makeup product. They thus communicate with the housing 330 to collect the product.
  • the scrapers may comprise a base and a free end portion made of a softer material than that of the base, for example through a bi-injection process.
  • the scrapers deform substantially when they bear against the top 14 of the neck 4. The contact between the scraper and this part of the reservoir is greater and scraping is improved.
  • the shutter comprises an even number of screw threads, for example two, and an odd number of scrapers, for example three.
  • This has the effect of generating a different cleaning depending on the position at which the closure of the shutter on the tank begins. Indeed, depending on the angular position of the shutter relative to the reservoir when the user starts to screw, one of the nets is chosen instead of the others, and the position of the scrapers at the moment they come into contact with the product depends on this net. If at another time, the user starts the screwing to another angular position, another thread is chosen and the position of the scrapers is also different at the time of starting the cleaning.
  • the cleaning is optimized because all scrapers clean in time different positions on the neck of the tank.
  • the body 9 will preferably be made of a synthetic material or several.
  • the product corresponds to any type of makeup product. It can be a gloss or a nail polish.
  • the invention is also applicable for a care product, and in general to any cosmetic product.
