Description

L'invention concerne une flaconnette pour produit cosmétique. L'invention concerne également un ensemble applicateur comprenant une telle flaconnette et un applicateur dudit produit cosmétique.The invention relates to a bottle for a cosmetic product. The invention also relates to an applicator assembly comprising such a bottle and an applicator of said cosmetic product.

On connait des ensembles applicateurs pour produit cosmétique comprenant un applicateur adapté pour être fixé de manière amovible sur une flaconnette contenant le produit cosmétique.Cosmetic product applicator assemblies are known comprising an applicator adapted to be removably attached to a bottle containing the cosmetic product.

Ladite flaconnette comprend généralement un capot et un corps.Said bottle usually comprises a hood and a body.

Le capot est adapté pour être fixé au corps de la flaconnette de façon à assurer une fermeture étanche d'un réservoir de produit cosmétique situé à l'intérieur du corps de la flaconnette.The cap is adapted to be fixed to the body of the bottle so as to ensure a tight closure of a cosmetic product reservoir located inside the body of the bottle.

Le corps, quant à lui, comprend des parois délimitant un réservoir dans lequel est contenu le produit cosmétique, ainsi qu'un col définissant une ouverture par laquelle le produit cosmétique peut être extrait. Le corps est en effet, généralement fermé au niveau d'une première extrémité par une paroi de fond, et ouvert au niveau d'une deuxième extrémité, opposée à la première extrémité, via un col. Le corps comprend en outre une paroi latérale située entre les deux extrémités de façon à délimiter complètement le réservoir.The body, in turn, comprises walls defining a reservoir in which the cosmetic product is contained, as well as a neck defining an opening through which the cosmetic product can be extracted. The body is indeed, generally closed at a first end by a bottom wall, and open at a second end, opposite the first end, via a neck. The body further comprises a side wall located between the two ends so as to completely delimit the reservoir.

Le col, lui, présente généralement des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture sur sa surface externe, ces moyens étant adaptés pour pouvoir collaborer avec des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture complémentaires situés sur la surface interne du capot, afin de fixer et fermer le capot de façon étanche sur le corps de la flaconnette. Lorsque le col présente des dimensions de section transversale plus petites que celles de la section transversale du corps de la flaconnette, on parle alors du goulot de la flaconnette.The neck itself generally has means for opening and closing on its external surface, these means being adapted to be able to collaborate with complementary opening and closing means located on the inner surface of the cover, in order to fix and close the cover tightly on the body of the bottle. When the neck has smaller cross-sectional dimensions than those of the cross-section of the body of the bottle, it is referred to as the neck of the flask.

Or, la présence d'un goulot et plus particulièrement la présence des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture de la flaconnette situés au niveau du goulot, c'est-à-dire au niveau d'une ouverture dont les dimensions de section transversale sont plus petites que celles de la section transversale du corps de la flaconnette elle-même, présente quelques inconvénients.However, the presence of a neck and more particularly the presence of the opening and closing means of the bottle located at the neck, that is to say at an opening whose cross-sectional dimensions are smaller than those of the cross-section of the body of the bottle itself, has some disadvantages.

Notamment, la présence d'un goulot peut être un facteur limitant pour la proposition d'applicateurs de grandes dimensions, et plus particulièrement pour des applicateurs dont les embouts présentent une grande section transversale. En effet, les fabricants cherchent constamment à diversifier et proposer de nouveaux types d'applicateurs aux consommateurs. Ainsi, ils ne veulent pas être limités par les dimensions de ces embouts applicateurs. Les fabricants cherchent donc à agrandir les dimensions des ouvertures des flaconnettes sans toutefois devoir augmenter les dimensions globales du corps de celles-ci.In particular, the presence of a neck may be a limiting factor for the proposal of large applicators, and more particularly for applicators whose tips have a large cross section. Indeed, manufacturers are constantly seeking to diversify and offer new types of applicators to consumers. Thus, they do not want to be limited by the dimensions of these applicator tips. The manufacturers therefore seek to enlarge the dimensions of the openings of the bottles without having to increase the overall dimensions of the body thereof.

Un essoreur se situe généralement au niveau du goulot de la flaconnette. Cet essoreur est habituellement configuré de manière à coopérer avec le capot pour assurer une fermeture étanche de la flaconnette. De façon à pouvoir élargir les dimensions de l'ouverture des flaconnettes, il a été tenté par exemple, de surmouler l'essoreur au niveau du goulot, de diminuer l'épaisseur de l'essoreur ou d'assembler l'essoreur dans le corps de la flaconnette de façon à ce que l'essoreur ne puisse pas remonter et s'engager dans le goulot.A wiper is usually located at the neck of the bottle. This wiper is usually configured to cooperate with the cover to ensure a tight closure of the bottle. In order to widen the dimensions of the opening of the bottles, it has been attempted, for example, to overmould the wiper at the neck, to reduce the thickness of the wiper or to assemble the wiper in the body. of the bottle so that the wiper can not go up and engage in the neck.

Un des objectifs de l'invention consiste à proposer une alternative au système d'ouverture et de fermeture situés habituellement au niveau des goulots desdites flaconnettes.One of the objectives of the invention is to provide an alternative to the opening and closing system usually located at the necks of said vials.

Ainsi l'invention concerne une flaconnette pour produit cosmétique, ladite flaconnette étant apte à occuper deux positions, une position d'ouverture et une position de fermeture, ladite flaconnette comprenant :

  • un corps, destiné à contenir le produit cosmétique, s'étendant le long d'une direction principale d'extension longitudinale (X), dite direction principale, ledit corps présentant une paroi de fond à l'une de ses extrémités, dite extrémité distale et une ouverture à l'extrémité opposée le long de la direction principale, dite extrémité proximale, ainsi qu'une paroi latérale située entre l'extrémité distale et l'extrémité proximale,
  • un capot,
  • un essoreur, destiné à racler le produit cosmétique en excès sur un applicateur lorsque la flaconnette passe de la position de fermeture à la position d'ouverture, ledit essoreur étant fixé à l'extrémité proximale du corps, l'essoreur étant configuré de manière à coopérer avec le capot pour assurer une fermeture étanche de la flaconnette en position de fermeture,
  • des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture situés sur le capot d'une part et sur le corps de la flaconnette d'autre part, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture étant configurés de manière à coopérer ensemble de manière à assurer le maintien en position de fermeture de la flaconnette.
Thus, the invention relates to a bottle for a cosmetic product, said bottle being able to occupy two positions, an open position and a closed position, said bottle comprising:
  • a body, intended to contain the cosmetic product, extending along a main direction of longitudinal extension (X), said main direction, said body having a bottom wall at one of its ends, said distal end and an opening at the opposite end along the main direction, said proximal end, and a side wall located between the distal end and the proximal end,
  • a cap,
  • a wiper, for scraping the excess cosmetic product on an applicator when the vial passes from the closed position to the open position, said wiper being attached to the proximal end of the body, the wiper being configured to cooperate with the cover to ensure a tight closure of the bottle in the closed position,
  • opening and closing means located on the hood on the one hand and on the body of the bottle on the other hand, the opening and closing means being configured so as to cooperate together so as to ensure the maintenance of closing position of the bottle.

Selon l'invention, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture situés sur le corps, sont positionnés à distance de l'extrémité proximale du corps d'une part et de l'extrémité distale du corps d'autre part.According to the invention, the opening and closing means located on the body are positioned at a distance from the proximal end of the body on the one hand and the distal end of the body on the other hand.

La solution de l'invention, c'est-à-dire la présence des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture positionnés à distance des extrémités proximale et distale du corps de la flaconnette, présente plusieurs avantages.The solution of the invention, that is to say the presence of the opening and closing means positioned at a distance from the proximal and distal ends of the body of the bottle, has several advantages.

Elle permet avantageusement la possibilité de prévoir des flaconnettes sans goulot. Ainsi, la solution de l'invention permet d'élargir l'ouverture des flaconnettes, sans toutefois augmenter leurs dimensions globales, notamment les dimensions de la section transversale du corps des flaconnettes. Cela signifie par ailleurs que les applicateurs de grandes dimensions, notamment ceux dont l'embout présente une dimension de section transversale importante, pourront être insérés aisément dans ces flaconnettes, sans agrandir les dimensions globales de leur corps.It advantageously allows the possibility of providing flasks without neck. Thus, the solution of the invention makes it possible to widen the opening of the bottles, without however increasing their overall dimensions, in particular the dimensions of the cross-section of the body of the bottles. This also means that large applicators, especially those whose tip has a large cross sectional dimension, can be easily inserted into these bottles, without enlarging the overall dimensions of their body.

L'invention sera mieux comprise, et d'autres buts, détails, caractéristiques et avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement au cours de la description explicative détaillée qui va suivre, d'au moins un mode de réalisation de l'invention donné à titre d'exemple purement illustratif et non limitatif, en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés.The invention will be better understood, and other objects, details, features and advantages thereof will become more clearly apparent in the following detailed explanatory description of at least one embodiment of the invention given to As a purely illustrative and non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying schematic drawings.

Sur ces dessins :

  • la figure 2 illustre, selon une vue de coupe longitudinale, une flaconnette selon un premier mode de réalisation de la présente invention, la flaconnette étant complétée avec un applicateur de produit cosmétique,
  • la figure 3 illustre, selon une vue de coupe longitudinale, une flaconnette selon un deuxième mode de réalisation de la présente invention, la flaconnette étant complétée avec un applicateur de produit cosmétique.
On these drawings:
  • the figure 1 illustrates, according to a longitudinal section view, a bottle known in the prior art, supplemented with a cosmetic product applicator,
  • the figure 2 illustrates, according to a longitudinal sectional view, a bottle according to a first embodiment of the present invention, the bottle being completed with a cosmetic product applicator,
  • the figure 3 illustrates, in a longitudinal sectional view, a bottle according to a second embodiment of the present invention, the bottle being completed with a cosmetic product applicator.

La figure 1 illustre une flaconnette F de l'art antérieur. De façon générale cette flaconnette F comprend un corps destiné à contenir un produit cosmétique. Ce corps s'étend le long d'une direction principale d'extension longitudinale X' et présente une paroi de fond à l'une de ses extrémités, une ouverture à l'extrémité opposée le long de la direction principale et une paroi latérale située entre lesdites deux extrémités. Ce corps comprend en outre un épaulement E, c'est-à-dire un rétrécissement de ses dimensions, par exemple de son diamètre au niveau de la partie supérieure du corps, de manière à permettre la création d'un goulot G sur lequel viendra se fixer un capot à l'aide de moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture situés d'une part sur le goulot G et d'autre part sur le capot.The figure 1 illustrates a flask F of the prior art. In general, this bottle F comprises a body intended to contain a cosmetic product. This body extends along a main direction of longitudinal extension X 'and has a bottom wall at one of its ends, an opening at the opposite end along the main direction and a side wall located between said two ends. This body further comprises a shoulder E, that is to say a narrowing of its dimensions, for example its diameter at the upper part of the body, so as to allow the creation of a neck G on which will be fixed a cover using opening and closing means located on the one side on the neck G and on the other hand on the hood.

L'invention, elle, concerne une flaconnette 10 pour produit cosmétique P apte à occuper deux positions, une position d'ouverture et une position de fermeture. On entend par « position d'ouverture », la position que prend la flaconnette lorsqu'un capot est détaché d'un corps de la flaconnette. A contrario, on entend par « position de fermeture », la position que prend la flaconnette lorsque le capot est fixé au corps de la flaconnette.The invention relates to a bottle 10 for a cosmetic product P capable of occupying two positions, an open position and a closed position. By " opening position " is meant the position taken by the bottle when a cap is detached from a body of the bottle. Conversely, the term " closed position ", the position that takes the bottle when the cap is attached to the body of the bottle.

Comme illustré à la figure 2, la flaconnette 10 comprend un corps 20 destiné de façon générale à contenir le produit cosmétique.As illustrated in figure 2 , the bottle 10 comprises a body 20 intended generally to contain the cosmetic product.

Le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 s'étend le long d'une direction principale d'extension longitudinale, dite direction principale et référée X sur les figures 2 et 3. Afin de délimiter un réservoir 25 dans lequel est contenu le produit cosmétique (P), le corps 20 présente une paroi de fond 26 à l'une de ses extrémités, dite extrémité distale 27 et une ouverture 21 à l'extrémité opposée le long de la direction principale, dite extrémité proximale 28, ainsi qu'une paroi latérale 23 située entre l'extrémité distale 27 et l'extrémité proximale 28. Cette paroi latérale 23 présente une surface interne 22 et une surface externe 24.The body 20 of the bottle 10 extends along a main direction of longitudinal extension, called the main direction and referred X on the figures 2 and 3 . In order to delimit a reservoir 25 in which the cosmetic product (P) is contained, the body 20 has a bottom wall 26 at one of its ends, said distal end 27 and an opening 21 at the opposite end along the main direction, said proximal end 28, and a side wall 23 located between the distal end 27 and the proximal end 28. This side wall 23 has an inner surface 22 and an outer surface 24.

L'ouverture 21 est définie par ce que l'on peut appeler un col de flaconnette. Comme mentionné précédemment, la flaconnette F de l'art antérieur comporte un goulot G. En effet, le corps de la flaconnette F est muni dans sa partie supérieure d'un épaulement E permettant ainsi de rétrécir les dimensions d1' de l'ouverture de la flaconnette F par rapport aux dimensions D1' du corps et ainsi de créer un goulot (d1'<D1'). Or, contrairement aux flaconnettes standards de l'art antérieur, le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 selon l'invention ne comporte pas d'épaulement au niveau de la partie supérieure du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10. On entend par « épaulement », le rétrécissement des dimensions de la flaconnette au niveau de la partie supérieure de son corps de façon à créer un goulot. Autrement dit, le corps 20 de la flaconnette selon l'invention est droit, voire rectiligne, entre son extrémité distale 27 et son extrémité proximale 28. Si l'on prend l'exemple particulier d'un corps et d'un col de flaconnette présentant chacun une forme cylindrique dans le sens de la direction principale X et une section transversale circulaire, le diamètre d1 du col présentera les mêmes dimensions que le diamètre D1 du corps de la flaconnette (d1=D1). Autrement dit, la dimension de la section transversale circulaire du col sera constante et non rétrécie sur toute la partie supérieure du corps de la flaconnette.The opening 21 is defined by what may be called a bottle neck. As mentioned previously, the bottle F of the prior art has a neck G. In fact, the body of the bottle F is provided in its upper part with a shoulder E thus allowing to shrink the dimensions d 1 'of the opening of the bottle F with respect to the dimensions D 1 'of the body and thus to create a neck (d 1 '<D 1 '). However, unlike the standard vials of the prior art, the body 20 of the vial 10 according to the invention does not have a shoulder at the upper part of the body 20 of the vial 10. The term " shoulder ", the narrowing of the dimensions of the bottle at the upper part of his body to create a neck. In other words, the body 20 of the bottle according to the invention is straight, or even rectilinear, between its distal end 27 and its proximal end 28. If we take the particular example of a body and a bottle neck each having a cylindrical shape in the direction of the main direction X and a circular cross section, the diameter d 1 of the neck will have the same dimensions as the diameter D 1 of the body of the bottle (d 1 = D 1 ). In other words, the dimension of the circular cross section of the neck will be constant and not shrunken over the entire upper body of the bottle.

Le corps 20 est avantageusement une pièce rigide. On entend par « rigide », qui n'est ni déformable sous la pression atmosphérique, ni sous une force exercée par les doigts d'un utilisateur. Sa section transversale peut être de toute forme, notamment polygonale ou circulaire. De préférence, sa section transversale est circulaire.The body 20 is advantageously a rigid piece. The term " rigid ", which is neither deformable under atmospheric pressure, nor under a force exerted by the fingers of a user. Its cross section can be of any shape, in particular polygonal or circular. Preferably, its cross section is circular.

Le corps 20 et le col 70 peuvent être obtenus en une seule et même pièce en matière plastique. En variante, le corps 20 et le col 70 peuvent être formés séparément et ensuite assemblés ensembles par soudure ou par clippage avec insertion d'un joint d'étanchéité entre les deux pièces.The body 20 and the neck 70 can be obtained in one and the same piece of plastic material. Alternatively, the body 20 and the neck 70 may be separately formed and then assembled together by welding or clipping with insertion of a seal between the two pieces.

La flaconnette 10 comprend également un capot 30 pouvant être manipulé par un utilisateur et destiné à maintenir un applicateur de produit cosmétique à l'intérieur du corps 20, lorsque la flaconnette 10 est en position de fermeture.The vial 10 also includes a user-manipulable cap 30 for holding a cosmetic product applicator within the body 20 when the vial 10 is in the closed position.

Le capot 30 est avantageusement rigide. Il présente une surface interne 32, une surface externe 34 et une partie pleine 36 en son intérieur. Sa section transversale peut être de toute forme, notamment polygonale ou circulaire. De préférence, sa section transversale est circulaire.The cover 30 is advantageously rigid. It has an inner surface 32, an outer surface 34 and a solid portion 36 in its interior. Its cross section can be of any shape, in particular polygonal or circular. Preferably, its cross section is circular.

La partie pleine 36 du capot 30, peut notamment prendre la forme d'un V tronqué (fig. 2). Autrement dit, la partie pleine 36 fait saillie de la surface interne 32 du capot 30. En d'autres mots, le V est la continuité de la surface interne 32 du capot 30, qui s'allonge dans le sens de la direction principale X, la partie tronquée du V s'étendant vers l'intérieur du réservoir 25, lorsque la flaconnette est en position de fermeture. Ainsi, de par sa forme en V, cette partie pleine 36 présente une section oblique 37, qui comme le sera expliquée ci-dessous, servira à assurer une étanchéité dite « conique » de la flaconnette 10 en position de fermeture (fig. 2).The solid part 36 of the cover 30 may in particular take the form of a truncated V ( Fig. 2 ). In other words, the solid portion 36 projects from the inner surface 32 of the cover 30. In other words, the V is the continuity of the inner surface 32 of the cover 30, which extends in the direction of the main direction X , the truncated portion of the V extending inwardly of the reservoir 25 when the bottle is in the closed position. Thus, by its V-shape, this solid portion 36 has an oblique section 37, which as will be explained below, will serve to ensure a so-called " conical " seal of the bottle 10 in the closed position ( Fig. 2 ).

La partie pleine 36 du capot peut également prendre la forme d'une section plate 38 (fig. 3). Cette section plate 38 est également la continuité de la surface interne 32 du capot 30. Cette section plate 38 est perpendiculaire à la direction principale X et parallèle au haut du col 70 de la flaconnette 10, permettant ainsi d'assurer une étanchéité dite « à plat » de la flaconnette 10 en position de fermeture comme décrit ci-dessous (voir fig. 3).The solid portion 36 of the hood may also take the form of a flat section 38 ( Fig. 3 ). This flat section 38 is also the continuity of the inner surface 32 of the cover 30. The flat section 38 is perpendicular to the main direction X and parallel to the top of the neck 70 of the vial 10, thus ensuring sealing so-called "in flat "of the vial 10 in the closed position as described below (see Fig. 3 ).

Le corps 20 et le capot 30 sont, par exemple, à base de matière plastique, notamment de polypropylène. Ils sont réalisés, notamment par injection ou injection soufflage. Ils peuvent être décorés, notamment par métallisation ou autre.The body 20 and the cover 30 are, for example, based on plastic, in particular polypropylene. They are made, in particular by injection or injection blow molding. They can be decorated, especially by metallization or other.

La flaconnette 10 comprend également un essoreur 40. L'essoreur 40 est généralement fixé à l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20. Plus particulièrement l'essoreur est encliqueté, collé ou soudé au niveau du col 70 de la flaconnette 10. L'essoreur 40 est, notamment, en caoutchouc.The bottle 10 also comprises a wiper 40. The wiper 40 is generally attached to the proximal end 28 of the body 20. More particularly the wiper is snapped, glued or welded at the neck 70 of the bottle 10. The wiper 40 is, in particular, rubber.

Cet essoreur 40 est destiné à racler le produit cosmétique P en excès sur un applicateur lorsque la flaconnette 10 passe d'une position de fermeture à une position d'ouverture. En effet, pour éviter que l'applicateur ne soit trop chargé en produit cosmétique, la flaconnette 10 comprend généralement un essoreur 40, fixé à l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 et s'étendant vers l'intérieur du réservoir 25. Lorsque l'utilisateur extrait l'applicateur du réservoir 25, l'applicateur coulisse à l'intérieur de l'essoreur 40. L'essoreur 40 racle le produit cosmétique P en excès sur l'applicateur, c'est-à-dire sur une tige 50 et sur un embout applicateur 60 fixé sur cette dernière. L'essoreur 40 permet ainsi de régler la quantité de produit présent sur l'embout applicateur 60 et évite une application excessive de produit cosmétique sur la surface d'application.This wiper 40 is intended to scrape the cosmetic product P in excess on an applicator when the bottle 10 passes from a closed position to an open position. Indeed, to avoid that the applicator is too much loaded cosmetic product, the bottle 10 generally comprises a wiper 40, attached to the proximal end 28 of the body 20 and extending inwardly of the reservoir 25. When the the user extracts the applicator from the reservoir 25, the applicator slides inside the wiper 40. The wiper 40 scrapes the cosmetic product P in excess on the applicator, that is to say on a rod 50 and an applicator tip 60 attached to the latter. The wiper 40 thus makes it possible to adjust the amount of product present on the applicator tip 60 and avoids excessive application of cosmetic product to the application surface.

Ledit essoreur 40 est également configuré de manière à coopérer avec le capot 30 pour assurer une fermeture étanche de la flaconnette 10 en position de fermeture. Plus particulièrement, l'étanchéité de la flaconnette 10 est assurée par la compression de l'essoreur 40 entre l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 et le capot 30 en position de fermeture de la flaconnette 10. Plus particulièrement encore, c'est la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 qui est destinée à assurer, en coopération avec l'essoreur 40, l'étanchéité de la flaconnette 10 en position de fermeture. En effet, et telle qu'illustrée aux figures 2 et 3, la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 permet d'assurer l'étanchéité de la flaconnette 10 en position de fermeture. Selon la forme de la partie pleine 36, cette étanchéité peut être dite « conique » (fig. 2) ou « à plat » (fig. 3).Said wiper 40 is also configured to cooperate with the cover 30 to ensure a tight closure of the vial 10 in the closed position. More particularly, the tightness of the vial 10 is ensured by the compression of the wiper 40 between the proximal end 28 of the body 20 and the cover 30 in the closed position of the bottle 10. More particularly, it is the solid portion 36 of the cover 30 which is intended to ensure, in cooperation with the wiper 40, the sealing of the bottle 10 in the closed position . Indeed, and as illustrated in figures 2 and 3 , the solid part 36 of the cover 30 makes it possible to seal the bottle 10 in the closed position. Depending on the shape of the solid portion 36, this seal may be called " conical " ( Fig. 2 ) or " flat " ( Fig. 3 ).

Lorsqu'elle est dite « conique » cela signifie que l'étanchéité se fait par le coincement et la compression de l'essoreur 40 entre la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 et la surface interne 22 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 au niveau de l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20, et ce au moment de la fermeture du capot 30 sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 (fig. 2). Autrement dit l'essoreur 40, sera écrasé par la section oblique 37 de la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 et la surface interne 22 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10. Les zones de contact entre l'essoreur 40 et la section oblique 37 de la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 sont référencées Co sur la fig. 2.When it is called " conical " it means that the seal is done by the jamming and compression of the wiper 40 between the solid part 36 of the cover 30 and the inner surface 22 of the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the vial 10 at the proximal end 28 of the body 20, and at the time of closure of the cap 30 on the body 20 of the vial 10 ( Fig. 2 ). In other words, the wiper 40 will be crushed by the oblique section 37 of the solid part 36 of the cap 30 and the inner surface 22 of the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the vial 10. The contact zones between the wiper 40 and the oblique section 37 of the solid portion 36 of the hood 30 are referenced C o on the Fig. 2 .

Lorsqu'elle est dite « à plat » cela signifie que l'étanchéité se fait par le coincement et la compression du bord 42 de l'essoreur 40 entre la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 et le haut du col 70 de la flaconnette 10 au moment de la fermeture du capot 30 sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 (fig. 3). Autrement dit l'essoreur 40, sera écrasé par la section plate 38 de la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 et le haut du col 70 de la flaconnette 10. Les zones de contact entre l'essoreur 40 et la section plate 38 de la partie pleine 36 du capot 30 est référencée Cp sur la fig. 3.When it is said to be " flat ", this means that the sealing is done by jamming and compressing the edge 42 of the wiper 40 between the solid part 36 of the cap 30 and the top of the neck 70 of the vial 10. when closing the cover 30 on the body 20 of the vial 10 ( Fig. 3 ). In other words, the wiper 40 will be crushed by the flat section 38 of the solid part 36 of the cover 30 and the top of the neck 70 of the bottle 10. The contact areas between the wiper 40 and the flat section 38 of the part full 36 of the hood 30 is referenced C p on the Fig. 3 .

La flaconnette 10 comprend en outre des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 situés sur le capot 30 d'une part et sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette d'autre part, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 étant configurés de manière à coopérer ensemble de manière à assurer le maintien en position de fermeture de la flaconnette 10.The bottle 10 further comprises opening and closing means 29, 39 located on the cover 30 on the one hand and on the body 20 of the bottle on the other hand, the opening and closing means 29, 39 being configured to cooperate together so as to keep the vial 10 in the closed position.

Plus particulièrement, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 sont situés sur la surface interne 32 du capot 30 d'une part et sur la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 d'autre part. De façon encore plus particulière, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 sont situés sur la surface externe 24 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10.More particularly, the opening and closing means 29, 39 are located on the inner surface 32 of the cover 30 on the one hand and on the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the bottle 10 on the other hand. Even more particularly, the opening and closing means 29 are located on the outer surface 24 of the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the vial 10.

Avantageusement, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20, sont positionnés à distance de l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 d'une part et de l'extrémité distale 27 du corps 20 d'autre part. On entend par « à distance » le fait que les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 ne soient pas situés au voisinage de l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 de ladite flaconnette 10. Autrement dit, « à distance » signifie que les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20, se trouvent déportés de l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 d'une part et déportés de l'extrémité distale 27 du corps 20 d'autre part. On entend par « déportés » le fait que les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20, sont positionnés de façon à ne pas être en contact direct avec l'extrémité proximale 28 du corps 20 d'une part et l'extrémité distale 27 du corps 20 d'autre part.Advantageously, the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20, are positioned at a distance from the proximal end 28 of the body 20 on the one hand and the distal end 27 of the body 20 on the other hand. The term " remote " means that the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20 of the vial 10 are not located in the vicinity of the proximal end 28 of the body 20 of said vial 10. In other words, , "Remote" means that the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20, are offset from the proximal end 28 of the body 20 on the one hand and offset from the distal end 27 of the body 20 d 'somewhere else. " Deported " means that the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20, are positioned so as not to be in direct contact with the proximal end 28 of the body 20 on the one hand and the distal end 27 of the body 20 of the other part.

A titre d'exemple, la distance à laquelle sont positionnés les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 peut être établie selon le rapport des hauteurs h/H suivant. Dans ce rapport, ladite hauteur h est définie comme étant la hauteur entre l'extrémité proximale (28) et les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture (29) situés sur le corps (20) alors que ladite hauteur H est définie comme étant la hauteur du corps (20) de la flaconnette (10) entre les extrémités distale (27) et proximale (28), ces deux hauteurs étant mesurées le long de la direction principale (X). Ce rapport, selon l'invention doit donc être compris entre 0,25≤h/H≤0,75, plus particulièrement, entre 0,25≤h/H≤0,5 et encore plus particulièrement h=H/2.By way of example, the distance at which the opening and closing means 29 are positioned on the body 20 of the bottle 10 can be established according to the ratio of the heights h / H according to. In this report, said height h is defined as the height between the proximal end (28) and the opening and closing means (29) located on the body (20) while said height H is defined as being the body height (20) of the vial (10) between the distal (27) and proximal (28) ends, both of which are measured along the main direction (X). This ratio, according to the invention must therefore be between 0.25≤h / H≤0.75, more particularly between 0.25≤h / H≤0.5 and even more particularly h = H / 2.

Il est important que ce rapport de distances, h/H, soit respecté de façon à ce que l'utilisateur puisse avoir accès à l'embout applicateur 60 pour se maquiller. Comme mentionné précédemment, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 sont configurés de manière à coopérer avec des moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture correspondants 39 situés sur le capot 30, de manière à assurer le maintien en position de fermeture de la flaconnette 10. Or, si les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 sont positionnés au voisinage de l'extrémité distale 27 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10, le capot 30 devra, pour pouvoir faire correspondre ces moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 39 avec ceux du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10, être construit de manière à recouvrir quasi-totalement la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10. Sachant que la distance Y entre l'extrémité libre de l'embout applicateur 60 et le fond 26 du corps de la flaconnette est généralement très petite (voir fig. 2), de l'ordre de 2 mm, le capot 30, en position d'ouverture recouvrira ainsi la quasi-totalité de l'embout applicateur 60, ne permettant pas à l'utilisateur d'avoir accès à l'embout applicateur 60 pour se maquiller. Autrement dit, il faut veiller à ce que les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 entraîne la construction d'un capot 30, qui à la fois permet la fermeture adéquate de la flaconnette via les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 39 correspondants situés au niveau du capot 30, tout en permettant à l'utilisateur d'avoir accès à l'embout applicateur 60 pour se maquiller lorsque la flaconnette 10 se retrouve en position d'ouverture. Ainsi, selon l'invention, le rapport des hauteurs h/H est avantageusement prévu pour permettre le maquillage en position ouverte. En effet, selon l'invention, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29 situés sur le corps ne sont pas au voisinage de l'extrémité distale 27.It is important that this ratio of distances, h / H, be respected so that the user can have access to the applicator tip 60 for makeup. As mentioned above, the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20 of the bottle 10 are configured to cooperate with corresponding opening and closing means 39 located on the cover 30, so as to ensure the maintaining in the closed position of the bottle 10. However, if the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20 of the bottle 10 are positioned in the vicinity of the distal end 27 of the body 20 of the bottle 10, the hood 30 will, in order to match these opening and closing means 39 with those of the body 20 of the vial 10, be constructed so as to cover almost completely the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the vial 10. Knowing that the distance Y between the free end of the applicator tip 60 and the bottom 26 of the body of the bottle is generally very small (see Fig. 2 ), of the order of 2 mm, the cover 30, in the open position will thus cover almost all of the applicator tip 60, not allowing the user to have access to the applicator tip 60 for to put on makeup. In other words, it must be ensured that the opening and closing means 29 located on the body 20 of the bottle 10 causes the construction of a cap 30, which at the same time allows the appropriate closure of the bottle via the means opening and closing 39 corresponding located at the cover 30, while allowing the user to have access to the applicator tip 60 to apply makeup when the bottle 10 is in the open position. Thus, according to the invention, the ratio of the heights h / H is advantageously provided to allow makeup in the open position. Indeed, according to the invention, the opening and closing means 29 located on the body are not in the vicinity of the distal end 27.

Les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 comprennent un système de vissage, le système de vissage comprenant une partie taraudée 39 située sur la surface interne 32 du capot 30 et une partie filetée 29 située sur la surface externe 24 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10.The opening and closing means 29, 39 comprise a screwing system, the screwing system comprising a threaded portion 39 located on the inner surface 32 of the cover 30 and a threaded portion 29 located on the outer surface 24 of the side wall. 23 of the body 20 of the bottle 10.

En variante, les moyens de d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 comprennent un système de baïonnette (non illustré). Ledit capot 30 pourra présenter notamment un godron sur sa surface interne 32, lequel sera inséré dans un chemin de came (avec ou sans rotation) situé sur la surface externe 24 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10. En variante, le godron et le chemin de came peuvent être inversés, c'est-à-dire que le godron se retrouvera sur la surface externe 24 de la paroi latérale 23 du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10 et le chemin de came se retrouvera sur la surface interne 32 du capot 30.Alternatively, the opening and closing means 29, 39 comprise a bayonet system (not shown). Said cover 30 may in particular have a gadroon on its inner surface 32, which will be inserted in a cam path (with or without rotation) located on the outer surface 24 of the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the bottle 10. In a variant, the godron and the cam path can be reversed, that is to say the godron will be on the outer surface 24 of the side wall 23 of the body 20 of the bottle 10 and the cam path will be found on the surface internal 32 of the hood 30.

Alternativement, les moyens d'ouverture et de fermeture 29, 39 comprennent un système de clippage (non illustré), autrement dit d'encliquetage. Ledit capot 20 pourra présenter notamment pour cela une gorge annulaire sur sa surface interne 32 dans laquelle sera insérée une bague située sur la surface externe 24 de la paroi latérale du corps de la flaconnette. En variante, il pourra s'agir de dents et/ou d'encoches.Alternatively, the opening and closing means 29, 39 comprise a clipping system (not shown), that is to say latching. Said cover 20 may have for this purpose an annular groove on its inner surface 32 in which will be inserted a ring located on the outer surface 24 of the side wall of the body of the bottle. Alternatively, it may be teeth and / or notches.

Selon l'invention, l'étanchéité sera également assurée, d'une part, par la coopération des moyens de fermeture positionnés à distance des extrémités proximale et distale du corps de la flaconnette avec les moyens complémentaires situés au niveau du capot de la flaconnette et d'autre part, lorsque le capot aura été fixé sur le corps de la flaconnette via les moyens de fermeture susmentionnés, par la coopération du capot et de l'essoreur.According to the invention, the seal will also be ensured, on the one hand, by the cooperation of the closing means positioned at a distance from the proximal and distal ends of the body of the bottle with the complementary means located at the cap of the bottle and on the other hand, when the cover has been fixed on the body of the bottle via the aforementioned closure means, by the cooperation of the cover and the wiper.

L'invention concerne en outre un ensemble applicateur d'un produit cosmétique comprenant une flaconnette 10 telle que décrite ci-dessus et un applicateur, le capot 30 étant destiné à maintenir l'applicateur de produit cosmétique à l'intérieur du corps 20 lorsque la flaconnette 10 est en position de fermeture.The invention further relates to an applicator assembly of a cosmetic product comprising a vial 10 as described above and an applicator, the cap 30 being intended to hold the cosmetic product applicator inside the body 20 when the vial 10 is in the closed position.

L'applicateur comprend généralement une tige axiale 50 d'une part et un embout applicateur 60 d'autre part. La tige axiale 50 s'étend selon une direction principale d'extension longitudinale, en l'occurrence la direction principale X et comprend deux extrémités opposées. De par son extrémité dite supérieure, la tige axiale 50 est conçue de façon à solidariser l'applicateur au capot 30. Par ailleurs, via son extrémité inférieure ou extrémité libre, la tige axiale 50 est conçue pour être fixée à l'embout applicateur 60. L'applicateur étant généralement solidarisé au capot 30, il forme avec ce dernier un moyen de préhension dudit applicateur. Lorsque le capot 30 est fixé sur le corps 20 de la flaconnette 10, c'est-à-dire lorsque la flaconnette 10 est en position de fermeture, la tige axiale 50 et l'embout applicateur 60 s'étendent à l'intérieur du corps 20 de la flaconnette 10. L'applicateur est ainsi immergé dans le produit cosmétique P contenu dans le réservoir 25. Pour utiliser l'applicateur, l'utilisateur détache le capot 30 du corps 20 et extrait l'applicateur du réservoir 25. On parle alors de position d'ouverture de la flaconnette.The applicator generally comprises an axial rod 50 on the one hand and an applicator tip 60 on the other hand. The axial rod 50 extends in a main direction of longitudinal extension, in this case the main direction X and comprises two opposite ends. By its so-called upper end, the axial rod 50 is designed to secure the applicator to the cap 30. Moreover, via its lower end or free end, the axial rod 50 is designed to be fixed to the applicator tip 60 As the applicator is generally secured to the cover 30, it forms with the latter a means for gripping said applicator. When the cover 30 is fixed on the body 20 of the vial 10, that is to say when the vial 10 is in the closed position, the axial stem 50 and the applicator tip 60 extend within the The applicator is thus immersed in the cosmetic product P contained in the reservoir 25. In order to use the applicator, the user detaches the cover 30 from the body 20 and extracts the applicator from the reservoir 25. then speaks of opening position of the bottle.

La tige 50 est avantageusement rigide. Elle pourra être légèrement déformée, notamment courbée, sous l'effet des efforts appliqués lors du maquillage, ceci en raison de sa forme allongée. Ladite tige 50 est, par exemple, à base de matière plastique, notamment de polypropylène.The rod 50 is advantageously rigid. It may be slightly deformed, especially curved, under the effect of efforts applied during makeup, this because of its elongated shape. Said rod 50 is, for example, based on plastic material, in particular polypropylene.

En fonction des applications visées, ledit embout applicateur 60 pourra être une brosse à mascara, un pinceau pour l'application de l'eyeliner, une spatule de baume pour les lèvres ou autres. En effet, bien que plus particulièrement prévu pour l'application du mascara ou de l'eyeliner, l'invention pourra également être utilisée pour tout autre type de produits cosmétiques, notamment du baume pour les lèvres.Depending on the intended applications, said applicator tip 60 may be a mascara brush, a brush for applying the eyeliner, a lip balm spatula or the like. Indeed, although more particularly intended for the application of mascara or eyeliner, the invention can also be used for any other type of cosmetic products, including lip balm.

Les matériaux utilisés pour l'embout applicateur 60 peuvent est choisi dans le groupe comprenant des fibres végétales (par exemple : coton, rayonne, cellulose), des fibres en matériau thermoplastique (par exemple : polyamide, polyester, nylon), des fibres en matériau thermoplastique élastiquement déformable (par exemple : élastomères, élastomères thermoplastiques, élastomères vulcanisés), un « fritté » et une mousse (par exemple : de polyuréthane, de polyéthylène, de chlorure de polyvinyle, de polyéther, de NBR (natural rubber), de SBR (synthetic rubber)). Par « fritté », on entend un produit obtenu par une consolidation par action de la chaleur d'un agglomérat granulaire plus ou moins compact, avec ou sans fusion d'un ou de plusieurs de ses constituants. En particulier, tout type d'embout applicateur 60 formant une brosse à mascara pourra être utilisé ici, que celui-ci soit moulé ou torsadé, à âme droite ou courbée.The materials used for the applicator tip 60 may be chosen from the group comprising plant fibers (for example: cotton, rayon, cellulose), fibers made of thermoplastic material (for example: polyamide, polyester, nylon), fibers of an elastically deformable thermoplastic material (for example: elastomers, thermoplastic elastomers, vulcanized elastomers), a "sintered" and a foam (for example: polyurethane, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyether, NBR (natural rubber), SBR (synthetic rubber). By " sintered " is meant a product obtained by consolidation by the action of heat of a granular agglomerate more or less compact, with or without fusion of one or more of its constituents. In particular, any type of applicator tip 60 forming a mascara brush may be used here, whether it is molded or twisted, straight or curved core.

En outre, les alternatives présentées ci-dessus pourront être combinées, ceci sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.In addition, the alternatives presented above may be combined, without departing from the scope of the invention.
