Description

Verfahren und Behältnis zur Konservierung von kosmetischen Produkten  Method and container for the preservation of cosmetic products
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Konservierung von kosmetischen Produkten, wie insbesondere Cremes oder Fluids, und/oder Aktivierung von in derartigen kosmetischen Produkten enthaltenen Wirkstoffen oder Wirkstoffbestandteilen. The present invention relates to a method for the preservation of cosmetic products, in particular creams or fluids, and / or activation of active ingredients or active ingredient components contained in such cosmetic products.
Zur Verlängerung der Haltbarkeitsdauer von kosmetischen Produkten werden diesen regelmäßig Konservierungsstoffe zugesetzt, die es dem Verbraucher ermöglichen sollen, auch nach dem Erwerb der in einem für den Verbraucher bestimmten Verkaufsbehältnis aufgenommenen Produkte diese über eine ausreichend lange Zeitspanne zu verwenden, ohne dass eine die Brauchbarkeit der Produkte einschränkende reduzierte Wirksam- keit die Folge ist. Darüber hinaus ist es auch wünschenswert, dass kosmetische Produkte auch in ihrem äußeren Erscheinungsbild konserviert werden, selbst dann, wenn Veränderungen des äußeren Erscheinungsbildes, wie beispielsweise eine Änderung der Konsistenz der Produkte, nicht zwangsläufig mit einer Reduzierung der Wirksamkeit dieser Produkte verbunden ist. In der Praxis kollidiert dieser Anspruch der Käufer nach einem möglichst lange in seinem äußeren Erscheinungsbild konservierten Produkt bzw. nach einem möglichst lange auch noch nach dem käuflichen Erwerb wirksamen Produkt mit dem ebenfalls bestehenden Anspruch, ein Produkt zu erwerben bzw . zu verwenden, das möglichst frei von Konservierungsstoffen sein sollte. In order to extend the shelf-life of cosmetic products, preservatives are regularly added to them which are intended to enable the consumer to use them for a sufficient period of time even after the products have been purchased in a sales outlet intended for the consumer, without compromising the usefulness of the products restrictive reduced effectiveness is the result. Moreover, it is also desirable that cosmetic products be conserved in appearance, even if changes in appearance, such as a change in product consistency, are not necessarily associated with a reduction in the effectiveness of these products. In practice, this claim of the buyer collapses after a product which has been conserved for as long as possible in its outward appearance or after a product which is effective as long as possible even after the purchase, with the likewise existing claim to acquire or to purchase a product. to use as free as possible of preservatives.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein The present invention is therefore based on the object
Verfahren bzw. eine Vorrichtung vorzuschlagen, das bzw. die eine lange Haltbarkeit von in Verkaufsbehältnissen, beispielsweise Cremetiegel oder Flaschen, abgefüllten kosmetischen Produkten ohne den Zusatz von Konservierungsstoffen zu diesen Produkten ermöglicht. To propose a method or a device that allows a long shelf life of in cosmetic containers, such as cream jars or bottles, bottled cosmetic products without the addition of preservatives to these products.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe weist das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 auf. To solve this problem, the inventive method has the features of claim 1.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird das im Behältnis aufgenommene Produkt mittels einer an einer Entnahmeeinrichtung oberhalb einer Produktoberfläche angeordneten LED-Einrichtung mit Licht definierter Wellenlänge beaufschlagt. In the method according to the invention, the product received in the container is exposed to light of defined wavelength by means of an LED device arranged on a removal device above a product surface.
Je nach verwendeter Wellenlänge lässt sich eine gewünschte Beeinflussung der Eigenschaften des im Behältnis aufgenommenen Produkts erzielen, die eine Konservierung des Produkts zur Folge hat. Depending on the wavelength used, a desired effect on the properties of the product received in the container can be achieved, which results in a preservation of the product.
Vorzugsweise kann eine Konservierung des im Behältnis aufgenommenen Produkts dadurch erfolgen, dass zur Erzielung einer bakteriziden Wirkung eine Beaufschlagung der Produktoberfläche mit einer auf die Zielbakterien abgestimmten Wellenlänge erfolgt. So ist es beispielsweise möglich, die Konsistenz des Produktes nachteilig beeinflussende Fäulnisbakterien durch Beaufschlagung mit einer auf diese Bakterien abgestimmten Wellenlänge abzutöten. Preferably, a preservation of the product received in the container can take place in that to achieve a bactericidal effect, the product surface is exposed to a wavelength matched to the target bacteria. So it is possible, for example, to kill the consistency of the product adversely affecting putrefactive bacteria by exposure to a tuned to these bacteria wavelength.
Auch ist es möglich, zur Aktivierung eines im Produkt enthaltenen Wirkstoffs oder eines Wirkstoffbestandteils der nach erfolgter Aktivie- rung nur eine zeitlich begrenzte Wirksamkeit hat, eine Beaufschlagung der Produktoberfläche mit einer auf den Wirkstoff oder den Wirkstoffbestandteil abgestimmten Wellenlänge durchzuführen. Vorzugsweise kann dabei der Zeitpunkt der Aktivierung durch den Verbraucher selbst dadurch gewählt werden, dass erst zum erstmaligen Gebrauch, also der erstmaligen Entnahme des im Verkaufsbehältnis erworbenen Produkts die LED-Einrichtung aktiviert wird, etwa dadurch, dass der Anschluss einer Energieversorgungseinrichtung an die LED-Einrichtung gezielt durch den Verbraucher, also etwa durch eine Relativbewegung eines Deckels des Behältnisses gegenüber einem das Produkt aufnehmenden Aufnahmeteil des Behältnisses erfolgt. It is also possible to activate an active substance or an active ingredient contained in the product after activation. tion has only a limited time effectiveness to perform an exposure to the product surface with a matched to the active ingredient or the active ingredient wavelength. Preferably, the time of activation by the consumer itself can be chosen so that the LED device is activated only for the first time use, ie the first time removal of the purchased in the sales container product, such as the connection of a power supply device to the LED device targeted by the consumer, so for example by a relative movement of a lid of the container against a product receiving receiving part of the container takes place.
Beispielsweise kann ein Glycerin enthaltendes, im Behältnis aufgenommenes Produkt mit Licht einer definierten Wellenlänge zur Aktivierung eines Vitamin D-Präkursors beaufschlagt werden. For example, a glycerol-containing, received in the container product with light of a defined wavelength for activation of a vitamin D precursor can be applied.
Vorzugsweise wird zur Aktivierung eines Vitamin D-Präkursors, insbesondere eines Vitamin D3 -Präkursors, ein Glycerin enthaltendes, im Behältnis aufgenommenes Produkt mit Licht einer Wellenlänge zwischen 280 nm und 3 15 nm beaufschlagt . Preferably, to activate a vitamin D precursor, in particular a vitamin D3 precursor, a glycerol-containing product received in the container is exposed to light having a wavelength between 280 nm and 3 15 nm.
Wenn ein Produkt, also beispielsweise eine kosmetische Creme, das bereits beim Auftragen auf die Haut einen Vitamin D-Präkursor aufweist, verwendet wird, erfolgt die im Körper stattfindende Vitamin D-Produktion vergleichsweise beschleunigt. Wenn nämlich eine Glycerin enthaltende Creme erst nach Auftrag auf die Haut mit einer Sonnenlicht induzierten UV-Strahlung der geeigneten Wellenlänge beaufschlagt wird, erfolgt die Ausbildung des Vitamin D-Präkursors erst nach einem längeren Aufenthalt der betreffenden Person im Sonnenlicht. If a product, for example a cosmetic cream which already has a vitamin D precursor when it is applied to the skin, is used, the vitamin D production taking place in the body is comparatively accelerated. Namely, when a glycerol-containing cream is applied to the skin only after application to the sunlight with UV-induced radiation of the appropriate wavelength, the formation of the vitamin D precursor takes place only after a prolonged stay of the person in sunlight.
Ein zur Lösung der vorgenannten Aufgabe geeignetes Behältnis, das insbesondere die Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ermöglicht, weist die Merkmale des Anspruchs 6 auf. Das erfindungsgemäße Behältnis zur Aufnahme kosmetischer Produkte weist einen Aufnahmeteil zur Aufnahme des Produkts und eine Entnahmeeinrichtung zur Entnahme des Produkts aus dem Aufnahmeteil auf, wobei die Entnahmeeinrichtung mit einem eine Entnahmeöffnung abde- ckenden Deckel versehen ist und die Entnahmeeinrichtung eine A suitable for solving the above task container, which in particular allows the implementation of the method according to the invention, has the features of claim 6. The container according to the invention for receiving cosmetic products has a receiving part for receiving the product and a removal device for removing the product from the receiving part, wherein the removal device is provided with a lid which covers a removal opening and the removal device is a
LED-Einrichtung aufweist, zur Beaufschlagung einer Produktoberfläche mit Licht definierter Wellenlänge.  LED device, for acting on a product surface with light of defined wavelength.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Behältnisses ist die LED-Einrichtung am Öffnungsrand der Entnahmeöffnung des Auf- nahmeteils und oberhalb einer Produktkontaktfläche einer Innenwand des Aufnahmeteils angeordnet. Somit ist sichergestellt, dass genau die Teilmenge des im Verkaufsbehältnis aufgenommenen Produkts mit dem Licht relevanter Wellenlänge beaufschlagt wird, die zur Entnahme durch den Verbraucher bestimmt ist. Damit werden beispielsweise lediglich die Anteile des Produkts konserviert oder aktiviert, die vom Verbraucher verwendet werden. Die unter der Entnahmeoberfläche befindlichen Anteile des Produkts werden entweder durch eine Konservierungsschicht an der Entnahmeoberfläche abgedeckt oder werden erst dann aktiviert, wenn sie durch vorhergehende Entnahme bereits aktivierter Oberflächen- schichten freigelegt sind und für die Verwendung durch den Verbraucher an der Entnahmeoberfläche angeordnet sind. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the container, the LED device is arranged on the opening edge of the removal opening of the receiving part and above a product contact surface of an inner wall of the receiving part. This ensures that exactly the subset of the product received in the sales container is exposed to the light of relevant wavelength, which is intended for removal by the consumer. Thus, for example, only the portions of the product that are used by the consumer are conserved or activated. The portions of the product below the sampling surface are either covered by a preservative layer on the sampling surface or are not activated until they have been exposed by prior removal of already activated surface layers and are located at the sampling surface for use by the consumer.
Überdies bietet insbesondere die Anordnung der LED-Einrichtung am Öffnungsrand an der Innenwand des Aufnahmeteils die Möglichkeit, die Beaufschlagung des Produkts mit LED-Licht für den Verbraucher im Zeitpunkt der Entnahme des Produkts au s dem Aufnahmeteil des Behältnisses sichtbar zu gestalten. Durch diese„Visualisierung" der Konservierung oder Aktivierung kann dem Verbraucher ein besonderer Qualitätseindruck vermittelt werden. Moreover, in particular the arrangement of the LED device at the opening edge on the inner wall of the receiving part offers the possibility to make visible the loading of the product with LED light for the consumer at the time of removal of the product on the receiving part of the container. Through this "visualization" of preservation or activation, the consumer can be given a special quality impression.
