Description

MECANISME TOURNANT D'UN ETUI COSMETIQUE  ROTATING MECHANISM OF A COSMETIC CASE
La présente invention concerne un mécanisme tournant d'un étui cosmétique, plus particulièrement d'un stylo de rouge à lèvres. The present invention relates to a rotating mechanism of a cosmetic case, more particularly to a lipstick pen.
De manière commune, tel que divulgué par les documents FR 2 955 469 et US 5 597 252, un mécanisme tournant comprend un curseur muni d'ergots enchâssés dans une gaine intérieure équipée de deux lumières longitudinales, qui est elle-même enchâssée dans une enveloppe extérieure comprenant deux rainures hélicoïdales. Les ergots du curseur traversent les lumières de la gaine intérieure et se prolongent dans les rainures hélicoïdales de l'enveloppe extérieure. Le mécanisme tournant étant solidaire par l'enveloppe extérieure à un conditionnement inférieur. Le curseur, équipé d'un raisin d'un produit cosmétique, tel qu'un bâton de rouge à lèvres ou de crème labiale, subit un mouvement de translation axiale, par la rotation de l'ensemble formé par l'enveloppe spiralée et le conditionnement inférieur. Un capot de fermeture vient s'emmancher sur l'extrémité supérieure du mécanisme tournant, en correspondance du conditionnement inférieur, afin de fermer hermétiquement l'étui cosmétique ainsi constitué. Commonly, as disclosed by documents FR 2 955 469 and US 5 597 252, a rotating mechanism comprises a slider provided with lugs set in an inner sheath equipped with two longitudinal slots, which is itself encased in an envelope outer including two helical grooves. The lugs of the slider go through the slots in the inner sheath and extend into the helical grooves of the outer shell. The rotating mechanism being secured by the outer casing to a lower package. The cursor, equipped with a grape of a cosmetic product, such as a stick of lipstick or lip cream, undergoes an axial translation movement, by the rotation of the assembly formed by the spiral envelope and the lower conditioning. A closing cap is fitted on the upper end of the rotating mechanism, in correspondence of the lower package, to seal the cosmetic case thus formed.
Un raisin de rouge à lèvres ou de crème labiale, est en général coulé par le fond de l'étui cosmétique ou moulé préalablement et monté dans le curseur. A grape of lipstick or lip cream is usually poured through the bottom of the cosmetic case or molded beforehand and mounted in the slider.
Le conditionnement inférieur et le mécanisme ont en général une collaboration qui nécessite un montage particulier, qui ne peut être réalisé par le conditionneur final du raisin. A cet effet, le mécanisme tournant est préassemblé au conditionnement inférieur par le distributeur du mécanisme. Le conditionnement inférieur comporte un orifice de remplissage, tel que divulgué par le document US 5 597 252, qui après coulage du raisin est obturé par un couvercle approprié. Cependant, une erreur de placement ou de coulage du raisin, rend inutilisable le mécanisme et le conditionnement inférieur, qui doivent être jetés. L'extrémité supérieure du mécanisme tournant du document FR 2The lower conditioning and the mechanism generally have a collaboration that requires a particular assembly, which can not be achieved by the final conditioner of the grapes. For this purpose, the rotating mechanism is preassembled to the lower package by the distributor of the mechanism. The lower package has a fill port, as disclosed in US 5,597,252, which after pouring the grapes is sealed by a suitable lid. However, an error in the placement or pouring of the grapes renders the mechanism and the inferior packaging unusable and must be discarded. The upper end of the rotating mechanism of the document FR 2
955 469, au contact des lèvres de l'utilisateur, par laquelle sort le raisin d'un produit cosmétique, est biseautée, et portée par une pièce agencée au centre du mécanisme. Cette pièce est la gaine intérieure dans laquelle est mû le curseur. Le profilé cylindrique de la gaine intérieure n'est pas constant, à savoir constitué de deux parties cylindriques ayant deux diamètres différents. Dans le cas d'une gaine intérieure en matériau métallique/ l'extrémité supérieure de ces mécanismes tournants, comporte donc des parties à vif, qui peuvent irritées les lèvres de l'utilisateur. Ces parties à vif ne peuvent être arrondies par un procédé d'emboutissage. 955 469, in contact with the lips of the user, through which the grape leaves a cosmetic product, is beveled, and carried by a piece arranged in the center of the mechanism. This piece is the inner sheath in which the cursor is moved. The cylindrical profile of the inner sheath is not constant, namely consisting of two cylindrical parts having two different diameters. In the case of an inner sheath made of metal material / the upper end of these rotating mechanisms, there are therefore live parts, which can irritate the lips of the user. These live parts can not be rounded by a stamping process.
La présente invention propose ainsi un perfectionnement d'un mécanisme tournant d'un étui cosmétique, permettant de pallier aux inconvénients précités. The present invention thus provides an improvement of a rotating mechanism of a cosmetic case, to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
Ainsi le mécanisme tournant d'un étui cosmétique, selon l'invention, comprend un curseur équipé de deux ergots qui traversent chacun une embrasure hélicoïdale d'une enveloppe spiralée emmanchée sur le curseur, tandis que les ergots se prolongent chacun dans une lumière longitudinale agencée dans une chemise extérieure emmanchée sur l'enveloppe spiralée. Thus, the rotating mechanism of a cosmetic case, according to the invention, comprises a slider equipped with two lugs which each pass through a helical embrasure of a spiral envelope fitted on the slider, while the lugs each extend in an arranged longitudinal lumen. in an outer shirt fitted on the spiral envelope.
Ajoutons que l'enveloppe spiralée comprend un corps de pièce cylindrique dans lequel sont agencées les deux embrasures hélicoïdales, tandis que le corps de pièce cylindrique est prolongé par une couronne. Let us add that the spiral envelope comprises a cylindrical piece body in which are arranged the two helical embrasures, while the cylindrical piece body is extended by a crown.
Notons que la chemise extérieure comprend une nervure intérieure périphérique qui vient s'emboîter dans une rainure périphérique agencée dans l'enveloppe spiralée. Note that the outer jacket comprises a peripheral inner rib which is fitted into a peripheral groove arranged in the spiral envelope.
Précisons que la rainure périphérique est localisée en dessous des extrémités inférieures des embrasures hélicoïdales agencées dans le corps de pièce cylindrique de l'enveloppe spiralée. Selon un mode de réalisation, les ergots sont mobiles au moins transversalement. It should be noted that the peripheral groove is located below the lower ends of the helical embrasures arranged in the cylindrical part body of the spiral envelope. According to one embodiment, the lugs are movable at least transversely.
Selon une caractéristique, l'extrémité inférieure du corps de pièce cylindrique de l'enveloppe spiralée comprend au moins une lamelle flexible s' étendant vers l'extérieur. Selon un mode de réalisation, le curseur est composé en deux parties, à savoir une extrémité supérieure comprenant un berceau destiné à recevoir un produit cosmétique, et une partie cylindrique allongée dans laquelle sont agencés les ergots à son extrémité inférieure. According to one characteristic, the lower end of the cylindrical piece body of the spiral envelope comprises at least one flexible strip extending outwardly. According to one embodiment, the cursor is composed of two parts, namely an upper end comprising a cradle intended to receive a cosmetic product, and an elongate cylindrical portion in which the lugs are arranged at its lower end.
Selon le mode de réalisation précédent, le diamètre extérieur de la partie cylindrique allongée est sensiblement égal au diamètre intérieur de l'enveloppe spiralée, tandis que le diamètre extérieur du berceau est sensiblement égal au diamètre intérieur de la chemise extérieure. According to the previous embodiment, the outer diameter of the elongated cylindrical portion is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the spiral envelope, while the outer diameter of the cradle is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the outer sleeve.
Selon une caractéristique supplémentaire, la partie supérieure de la couronne comprend une butée périphérique limitant le débattement de l'emmanchement de la chemise extérieure. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le mécanisme tournant est constitué de trois corps de pièce, à savoir du curseur, de l'enveloppe spiralée et de la chemise extérieure. According to an additional characteristic, the upper part of the crown comprises a peripheral stop limiting the movement of the fitting of the outer jacket. According to a preferred embodiment, the rotating mechanism consists of three part bodies, namely the slider, the spiral envelope and the outer jacket.
Selon un mode d'exécution, l'enveloppe spiralée comprend une rainure supérieure assemblée à une nervure supérieure agencée dans la chemise extérieure. According to one embodiment, the spiral envelope comprises an upper groove joined to an upper rib arranged in the outer jacket.

Dans la suite de la description, il est entendu que le mécanisme tournant (1) est en position d'utilisation, à savoir l'extrémité supérieure du mécanisme tournant (1) dirigée vers le haut, tel qu'illustré aux figures 1 à 13, The slider (2) and the spiral envelope (3) are preferably made of synthetic material, while the outer jacket (4) is preferably made of metallic material. In the following description, it is understood that the rotating mechanism (1) is in the use position, namely the upper end of the rotating mechanism (1) directed upwards, as shown in Figures 1 to 13 ,
Il est également entendu qu'une position axiale correspond à une position longitudinale dirigée de haut en bas, et on entend par une position transversale, une position perpendiculaire à l'axe passant par l'extrémité supérieure et l'extrémité inférieure du mécanisme tournant (1). It is also understood that an axial position corresponds to a longitudinal position directed from top to bottom, and a transverse position is understood to mean a position perpendicular to the axis passing through the upper end and the lower end of the rotating mechanism ( 1).
A titre indicatif, on appelle un stylo de rouge à lèvre un étui cosmétique, qui a généralement un diamètre inférieur et une longueur plus importante, qu'un tube de rouge à lèvres ou de crème labiale classique. Le curseur a ainsi une longueur plus importante que celle d'un étui cosmétique classique. As an indication, a lipstick pen is called a cosmetic case, which is generally smaller in diameter and longer in length than a tube of lipstick or classic lip cream. The slider thus has a longer length than that of a conventional cosmetic case.
Ce mécanisme tournant (1) est associé à un conditionnement inférieur et un conditionnement supérieur, à savoir une embase à son extrémité inférieure, en correspondance, d'un capot de fermeture amovible qui vient s'emmancher sur l'extrémité supérieure libre du mécanisme tournant (1) et vient en position fermée se positionner autour de la chemise extérieure (4) pour fermer complètement l'étui cosmétique de manière hermétique, mais il pourrait en être autrement, le capot de fermeture vient s'emmancher indirectement autour de la chemise extérieure (4), via une nervure annulaire agencée en périphérie inférieure de cette dernière. This rotating mechanism (1) is associated with a lower packaging and a higher packaging, namely a base at its lower end, in correspondence, a removable closure cap which is engulfed on the free upper end of the rotating mechanism (1) and comes in a closed position to position around the outer jacket (4) to completely close the cosmetic case hermetically, but it could be otherwise, the closure cap comes to slip indirectly around the outer jacket (4), via an annular rib arranged at the lower periphery of the latter.
Ces trois corps de pièce ont des profils généraux cylindriques, adaptés de telle sorte que le curseur (2) soit enchâssé dans l'enveloppe spiralée (3), tandis que la chemise extérieure (4) est emmanchée sur cette dernière. These three part bodies have cylindrical general profiles, adapted so that the slider (2) is embedded in the spiral envelope (3), while the outer sleeve (4) is fitted on the latter.
De manière commune, le curseur (2) comprend deux ergots (5) agencés en opposition qui viennent collaborer chacun avec une embrasure hélicoïdale (6) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), tandis qu'ils se prolongent chacun dans une lumière longitudinale (7) agencée dans la chemise extérieure (4), telle qu'explicité plus en détail dans la suite de la description. In a common manner, the slider (2) comprises two lugs (5) arranged in opposition which each collaborate with a helical embrasure (6) of the spiral envelope (3), while they each extend in a longitudinal lumen ( 7) arranged in the outer jacket (4), as explained in more detail in the following description.
Un curseur (2) se présente à son extrémité supérieure, par un berceau (13), également appelé cupule, destiné à recevoir un produit cosmétique, qui est prolongé par une partie cylindrique allongée (14), de plus faible diamètre, sur laquelle sont agencés les ergots (5) sensiblement à son extrémité inférieure. A slider (2) is at its upper end, by a cradle (13), also called cupule, intended to receive a cosmetic product, which is extended by an elongated cylindrical portion (14) of smaller diameter, on which are arranged the lugs (5) substantially at its lower end.
Le berceau (13) est par exemple équipé d'ailettes agencées radialement par rapport à la paroi verticale du berceau (13). Ces ailettes contribuent au maintien en position du raisin. The cradle (13) is for example equipped with fins arranged radially relative to the vertical wall of the cradle (13). These fins contribute to maintaining the position of the grapes.
Le diamètre extérieur du berceau (13) correspond sensiblement au diamètre intérieur de la chemise extérieure (4), tandis que le diamètre extérieur de la partie cylindrique allongée (14), correspond sensiblement au diamètre intérieur de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), tels qu'illustrés aux figures 3 et 4. The outer diameter of the cradle (13) corresponds substantially to the inside diameter of the outer sleeve (4), while the outer diameter of the elongate cylindrical portion (14) substantially corresponds to the inner diameter of the spiral envelope (3), such as as illustrated in Figures 3 and 4.
On a compris que le diamètre extérieur de l'enveloppe spiralée (3) correspond au diamètre intérieur de la chemise extérieure (4) et qui est donc sensiblement égal au diamètre extérieur du berceau (13). Notons que les ergots (5) du curseur (2) sont portés par des pattes flexibles. Les ergots (5) sont ainsi flexibles au moins transversalement, à savoir qu'ils sont engagés dans les embrasures hélicoïdales (6) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), tandis qu'ils sont rentrés en force dans les lumières longitudinales (7) de la chemise extérieure (4). Précisons que ces ergots (5), tels qu'illustrés aux figures 5/ 6 12 et 13 se présentent par des saillies latérales, par rapport au corps de la partie cylindrique allongée (14). Les pattes flexibles sont maintenues à la paroi du curseur (2) par leurs parties hautes, tandis que des découpes latérales et une découpe inférieure bordent les pattes flexibles, apportant aux ergots (5) une flexibilité au moins transversale, à savoir une flexibilité au moins radiale. It is understood that the outer diameter of the spiral envelope (3) corresponds to the inner diameter of the outer sleeve (4) and is therefore substantially equal to the outer diameter of the cradle (13). Note that the lugs (5) of the slider (2) are carried by flexible tabs. The lugs (5) are thus flexible at least transversely, ie they are engaged in the helical embrasures (6) of the spiral envelope (3), while they are forced into the longitudinal slots (7). outer jacket (4). Note that these lugs (5), as illustrated in Figures 5/6 12 and 13 are provided by lateral projections, relative to the body of the elongate cylindrical portion (14). The flexible tabs are held at the wall of the slider (2) by their upper parts, while lateral cutouts and a lower cut edge the flexible tabs, providing the pins (5) at least transverse flexibility, namely flexibility at least radial.
Ajoutons que l'enveloppe spiralée (3) comprend deux embrasures hélicoïdales (6) débouchant vers son extrémité supérieure, dans la paroi cylindrique de son corps de pièce (8). Add that the spiral envelope (3) comprises two helical embrasures (6) opening towards its upper end, in the cylindrical wall of its part body (8).
Ainsi, les embrasures hélicoïdales (6) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3) apporte une certaine flexibilité longitudinale à cette dernière, ce qui, en fin de course du curseur (2), en fin de vie du produit cosmétique, engendre un effet ressort du curseur (2) par la flexibilité de l'enveloppe spiralée (3). Pour pallier à cet inconvénient, selon un mode d'exécution de l'invention, l'enveloppe spiralée (3) est équipée d'une rainure supérieure (17) avantageusement périphérique, plus précisément partiellement périphérique, à son extrémité supérieure, plus précisément aux extrémités supérieures des embrasures hélicoïdales (6), telle qu'illustrée à la figure 14. Thus, the helical embrasures (6) of the spiral envelope (3) provides a certain longitudinal flexibility to the latter, which, at the end of the stroke of the slider (2), at the end of life of the cosmetic product, generates a spring effect of the slider (2) by the flexibility of the spiral envelope (3). To overcome this drawback, according to one embodiment of the invention, the spiral envelope (3) is equipped with an upper groove (17) advantageously peripheral, more precisely partially peripheral, at its upper end, more precisely to the upper ends of the helical embrasures (6), as illustrated in Figure 14.
Il est entendu par une rainure supérieure (17) partiellement périphérique, une rainure périphérique dans laquelle sont agencées les ouvertures supérieures débouchant des embrasures hélicoïdales (6). It is understood by an upper groove (17) partially peripheral, a peripheral groove in which are arranged the upper openings opening the helical embrasures (6).
En correspondance de cette rainure supérieure (17), une nervure supérieure (18) préférentiellement périphérique est agencée dans la chemise extérieure (4), de manière à ce qu'elle fasse saillie à l'intérieur du profilé de la chemise extérieure (4). In correspondence of this upper groove (17), a preferably peripheral upper rib (18) is arranged in the outer jacket (4), so that it protrudes inside the profile of the outer jacket (4). .
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré à la figure 15, la nervure supérieure (18) est périphérique, à savoir faisant saillie sur l'intégralité du périmètre intérieur du profilé de la chemise extérieure (4). According to the embodiment illustrated in Figure 15, the upper rib (18) is peripheral, ie protruding over the entire inner perimeter of the profile of the outer sleeve (4).
Il est entendu que la nervure supérieure (18) est localisée au-dessus des lumières longitudinales (7), telle qu'illustrée à la figure 15. It is understood that the upper rib (18) is located above the longitudinal lumens (7), as illustrated in Figure 15.
Précisons que l'assemblage de la nervure supérieure (18) et de la rainure supérieure (17) permet de solidariser en translation longitudinale l'enveloppe spiralée (3) à la chemise extérieure (4), supprimant l'effet ressort du curseur (2) en fin de course, lors de l'application du produit cosmétique en fin de vie. It should be noted that the assembly of the upper rib (18) and the upper groove (17) makes it possible to join the spiral envelope (3) in longitudinal translation to the outer sleeve (4), eliminating the spring effect of the slider (2). ) at the end of the race, when applying the cosmetic product at the end of its life.
Notons que la partie inférieure du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), en dessous des extrémités inférieures des embrasures hélicoïdales (6), comprend une rainure périphérique (11), qui vient engager une nervure périphérique intérieure (10) agencée dans la partie inférieure de la paroi intérieure de la chemise extérieure (4), telle qu'illustrée à la figure 2 et telle qu'explicité plus en détail dans la suite de la description. Note that the lower part of the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3), below the lower ends of the helical embrasures (6), comprises a peripheral groove (11), which engages an inner peripheral ridge ( 10) arranged in the lower part of the inner wall of the outer jacket (4), as illustrated in Figure 2 and as explained in more detail in the following description.
La coopération de cette rainure périphérique (11) avec la nervure périphérique intérieure (10) de la chemise extérieure (4), permet non seulement de maintenir ces deux corps de pièce en position, mais également de participer à la rotation de ces deux pièces l'une par rapport à l'autre. Selon une caractéristique, la partie inférieure du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), en dessous des extrémités inférieures des embrasures hélicoïdales (6), avantageusement également en dessous de la rainure périphérique (11), comprend au moins une lamelle flexible (12), avantageusement plusieurs lamelles flexibles (12), préférentiellement quatre lamelles flexibles (12), réparties de manière régulière le long de la circonférence de l'enveloppe spiralée (3). The cooperation of this peripheral groove (11) with the inner peripheral rib (10) of the outer sleeve (4), allows not only to maintain these two body parts in position, but also to participate in the rotation of these two parts l one with respect to the other. According to one characteristic, the lower part of the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3), below the lower ends of the helical embrasures (6), advantageously also below the peripheral groove (11), comprises at less a flexible lamella (12), advantageously several flexible lamellae (12), preferably four flexible lamellae (12) distributed evenly along the circumference of the spiral envelope (3).
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, la rainure périphérique (11) est plus précisément séquentiellement périphérique, à savoir qu'elle comprend des portions de rainures périphériques concentriques, dans lesquelles viennent s'intercaler les extrémités des lamelles flexibles (12). According to the illustrated embodiment, the peripheral groove (11) is more precisely sequentially peripheral, namely that it comprises portions of concentric peripheral grooves, in which are inserted the ends of the flexible strips (12).
Une lamelle flexible (12) s'étend sensiblement vers l'extérieur au-delà du profil général de l'enveloppe spiralée (3) et se présente selon le mode de réalisation illustré par au moins une saillie latérale, maintenue au corps de pièce cylindrique (8) par son extrémité inférieure, tandis qu'elle se détache en partie du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) par des découpes latérales et une découpe supérieure. A flexible blade (12) extends substantially outward beyond the overall profile of the spiral casing (3) and is in the illustrated embodiment by at least one lateral projection, held in the cylindrical body part. (8) by its lower end, while it detaches in part from the cylindrical piece body (8) by lateral cutouts and an upper cutout.
Selon la caractéristique précédente, lors de l'emmanchement de la chemise extérieure (4) sur l'enveloppe spiralée (3), au moins une lamelle flexible (12) est au contact de la paroi intérieure de la chemise extérieure (4), et vient se compresser légèrement vers l'intérieur. According to the preceding characteristic, during the fitting of the outer jacket (4) on the spiral envelope (3), at least one flexible strip (12) is in contact with the inner wall of the outer jacket (4), and Comes slightly inside.
Précisons que ces lamelles flexibles (12), absorbent le jeu radial entre la chemise extérieure (4) et l'enveloppe spiralée (3), contrôlent le couple et ralentissent ainsi la rotation de l'ensemble formée par l'enveloppe spiralée (3) et la chemise extérieure (4), apportant un confort d'utilisation. Note that these flexible strips (12), absorb the radial clearance between the outer jacket (4) and the spiral envelope (3), control the torque and thus slow down the rotation of the assembly formed by the spiral envelope (3) and the outer jacket (4), providing comfort of use.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, le corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3) est prolongé vers son extrémité inférieure par une couronne (9). According to the illustrated embodiment, the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3) is extended towards its lower end by a ring (9).
Ajoutons que selon le mode de réalisation illustré, l'enveloppe spiralée (3) et la couronne (9) font partie intégrante d'un même corps de pièce. Notons que la partie supérieure de la couronne (9) comprend une butée périphérique (15), localisée en dessous de la rainure périphérique (11). Cette butée périphérique (15) a le rôle majeur de limiter le débattement vers le bas, lors de l'emmanchement de la chemise extérieure (4) sur l'enveloppe spiralée (3), et lors de l'assemblage de la rainure périphérique (11) avec la nervure périphérique intérieure (10). Add that according to the illustrated embodiment, the spiral envelope (3) and the ring (9) form an integral part of the same part body. Note that the upper part of the ring (9) comprises a peripheral stop (15), located below the peripheral groove (11). This peripheral abutment (15) has the major role of limiting the downward movement, during the fitting of the outer sleeve (4) on the spiral envelope (3), and during the assembly of the peripheral groove ( 11) with the inner peripheral rib (10).
Précisons que la butée périphérique (15) n'est pas en contact avec l'extrémité inférieure de la chemise extérieure (4), en position assemblée. Note that the peripheral stop (15) is not in contact with the lower end of the outer sleeve (4) in the assembled position.
Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, la surface extérieure de la couronne (9) présente des cannelures (16) équidistantes et régulièrement réparties. La couronne (9) venant s'emboîter dans un conditionnement inférieur, à savoir une embase, telle qu'explicité précédemment, les cannelures (16) contribuent au maintien sous pression de la couronne (9) dans l'embase. Tel qu'explicité précédemment, la chemise extérieure (4) comprend deux lumières longitudinales (7) agencées en opposition, dans sa paroi cylindrique, dans lesquelles viennent s'emboîter les ergots (5) du curseur (2). According to a complementary feature, the outer surface of the ring (9) has splines (16) equidistant and regularly distributed. The ring (9) coming to fit into a lower package, namely a base, as previously explained, the flutes (16) contribute to maintaining pressurized crown (9) in the base. As explained above, the outer jacket (4) comprises two longitudinal slots (7) arranged in opposition, in its cylindrical wall, in which the lugs (5) of the slider (2) engage.
Lors du maintien par l'utilisateur de la chemise extérieure (4), l'enveloppe spiralée (3), permet d'entraîner le curseur (2) en translation axiale, lors de la rotation axiale de l'ensemble formé par la couronne (9) et l'enveloppe spiralée (3). During maintenance by the user of the outer jacket (4), the spiral envelope (3) allows to drive the slider (2) in axial translation, during the axial rotation of the assembly formed by the crown ( 9) and the spiral envelope (3).
Les lumières longitudinales (7) ont une longueur correspondant à la hauteur du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3), tandis que le corps de la partie cylindrique allongée (14) du curseur (2) a une longueur sensiblement égale à celle du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3). The longitudinal lumens (7) have a length corresponding to the height of the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3), while the body of the elongate cylindrical portion (14) of the slider (2) has a length substantially equal to that of the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3).
Précisons que les extrémités des lumières longitudinales (7) coïncident sensiblement avec celles des embrasures hélicoïdales (6). Note that the ends of the longitudinal lumens (7) coincide substantially with those of the helical embrasures (6).
Ainsi de par la structure particulière du mécanisme tournant (1) selon l'invention, la hauteur du corps de pièce cylindrique (8) de l'enveloppe spiralée (3) est sensiblement égale, voire supérieure, à la moitié de celle de la chemise extérieure (4). Selon le mode de réalisation illustré à la figure 6, la structure particulière du curseur (2) permet un remplissage de ce dernier, par coulage d'un bâton de rouge à lèvre par la partie inférieure du curseur (2), qui comprend un orifice approprié. Cette particularité permet de couler le bâton de rouge à lèvres préalablement à l'assemblage du conditionnement inférieur, à savoir de l'embase. Cette particularité à l'avantage, lors d'erreur de remplissage de ne pas jeter le conditionnement inférieur avec le mécanisme tournant (1). Thus, due to the particular structure of the rotating mechanism (1) according to the invention, the height of the cylindrical piece body (8) of the spiral envelope (3) is substantially equal to, or greater than, half that of the jacket outside (4). According to the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 6, the particular structure of the slider (2) makes it possible to fill the latter, by casting a lipstick stick through the lower part of the slider (2), which comprises an orifice appropriate. This feature allows to pour the stick of lipstick prior to assembly of the lower package, namely the base. This feature has the advantage, when filling error not to discard the lower packaging with the rotating mechanism (1).
Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, le conditionnement inférieur, à savoir l'embase, ne comprend avantageusement pas d'orifice de remplissage, obturé par un opercule approprié, améliorant l'esthétique de l'étui cosmétique. According to a complementary feature, the lower package, namely the base, advantageously does not comprise a filling orifice, closed by a suitable cap, improving the aesthetics of the cosmetic case.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré aux figures 12 et 13, la structure particulière du curseur (2) permet l'insertion d'un bâton de rouge à lèvres par piquage, à savoir un positionnement du raisin par l'extrémité supérieure du curseur, qui vient se loger dans un logement comprenant une paroi de fond qui comprend des orifices d'évacuation d'air. According to the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13, the particular structure of the slider (2) allows the insertion of a stick of lipstick by stitching, namely a positioning of the grapes by the upper end of the slider, which is housed in a housing comprising a bottom wall which comprises air evacuation ports.
Selon le mode de réalisation précédent, la paroi de fond du logement destiné à recevoir le raisin, est localisée dans la partie supérieure de la partie cylindrique allongée (14) du curseur (2). According to the previous embodiment, the bottom wall of the housing for receiving the grapes, is located in the upper part of the elongate cylindrical portion (14) of the slider (2).
Notons que selon le mode de réalisation illustré, les extrémités supérieures du curseur (2) et de la chemise extérieure (4) sont biseautées, mais il pourrait en être autrement, l'extrémité supérieure du curseur (2) est biseautée, voire les extrémités supérieures du curseur (2) et de la chemise extérieure (4), sont droites. Note that according to the illustrated embodiment, the upper ends of the slider (2) and the outer jacket (4) are bevelled, but it could be otherwise, the upper end of the slider (2) is tapered, or the ends upper slider (2) and outer sleeve (4), are straight.
En outre, la forme cylindrique sensiblement régulière de la chemise extérieure (4), à savoir ayant sensiblement un diamètre constant, permet d'arrondir l'extrémité supérieure de cette dernière par un procédé d'emboutissage, et d'obtenir ainsi une extrémité supérieure de la chemise extérieure (4) lisse au toucher, évitant toute présence de zone à vif, notamment dans le cas d'une extrémité biseautée. In addition, the substantially regular cylindrical shape of the outer jacket (4), namely having substantially a constant diameter, rounds the upper end of the latter by a stamping process, and thus obtain an upper end outer sleeve (4) smooth to the touch, avoiding any presence of live area, especially in the case of a beveled end.
