Definitions
- the invention relates to a case, in particular for cosmetic products. These are products that can be in the form of a cream, cream-compact, compressed powder, liquid, etc.
- compact boxes which allow them to be stored and/or transported, for example in a handbag.
- Such boxes generally comprise a base for collecting the cosmetic product, as well as a cover which closes said base for storage and/or transport purposes.
- the case according to the document US-9 452 873 does not give complete satisfaction in that the cover is formed from several parts, the manufacture and then the assembly of which generate costs which necessarily have repercussions on the final cost price of the case. Moreover, in the pivoting position relative to the base, the cover remains unstable; and in the folded position relative to the base, the cover has a thread which is not necessarily aligned with that of the base. This results in an inconclusive user experience. Finally, the case according to the document US-9 452 873 has a height that remains relatively large, while it is preferable to have a compact housing.
- the document EN 2 769 807 A1 discloses a box having a bottom having a first thread, and a cover having a second thread, able to come into engagement with the first, to screw the cover onto the bottom, and connecting means suitable, when the first thread is not not in engagement with the second, to form an articulation of the cover relative to the bottom.
- the object of the invention is to at least partially overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and proposes for this purpose a case, in particular for a cosmetic product, comprising a base configured to contain said product, a lid configured to be screwed reversibly onto said base along a screwing axis, said case further comprising an intermediate piece ensuring mounting in pivoting of said cover on said base along an axis transverse to the screw axis, said cover comprising at least a first side skirt, called first interface wall, positioned facing a side ring of said intermediate piece, called second wall interface.

- the inner shell has an upper wall, called the first inner vertical wall, which is configured to form a upper portion of the inner face 613b of the outer skirt 613, and a lower wall, called the second inner vertical wall, which is configured to form a lower portion of the inner face 613b of the outer skirt 613.
- the vertical walls internal parts of the inner shell are two distinct elements which are configured to be positioned on either side of the region or regions of the mold intended for the formation of the counter-form(s) 68.
- the outer shell has at least one core, called the upper core, which extends from the outer horizontal wall. This or these upper cores are positioned against the first internal vertical wall.
- the internal shell has at least one core, called the lower core, which is positioned against the second internal vertical wall.
- the upper core(s) are configured to be aligned with the lower core(s) in the region(s) of the mold intended for the formation of the counterform(s) 68.
- an upper portion of the counterform(s) 68 is obtained using the upper core(s).
- a lower portion of the counter-form(s) 68 is obtained using the lower core(s).
- the lower core or cores like the upper core or cores, have a tapered shape. Thanks to this shape, the extraction of the main body 61 from the mold is carried out without difficulty according to a so-called natural stripping.
- the main body 61 has at the bottom 611 one or more orifices 611a.
- This orifice or these orifices 611a indicate the previous presence of the upper core or cores in the mold.
- This orifice or these orifices 611a open into the annular groove 64 in line with the counter-form(s) 68 (see figure 4c ).
- one or more rising wedges are associated with the injection mold which are intended , after solidification of the molding material, to allow a smooth opening of the mold and to release the counter-form(s) 68 without affecting the structural integrity thereof.
- the riser(s) are introduced inside the mold so as to be positioned in the vicinity of one or more regions in which the counter-form(s) 68 are intended to be formed. A portion of the riser(s) remains outside the mold.
- the riser or risers are introduced into the mold through a wall of the mold which is intended for the formation of the bottom 611 of the main body 61.
- the riser or risers are removed from the mold by sliding through the main body 61 thus formed. This then has at the bottom 611 one or more orifices 611a indicating the previous presence of the rising wedge(s) in the mould.
- This orifice or these orifices 611a open into the annular groove 64 in line with the counter-form(s) 68 (see figure 4c ).
- a cover (not shown) is provided on the external face of the said bottom 611.
- This cover therefore has the function of a trim. In addition, it can serve as a support for any type of marking on the upper body 61 of the cover 6.
- this cover is fixed to the outer face of the bottom 611 by snap-fastening. To do this, the outer face of the bottom 611 has a circular rim forming a housing into which the cover fits.
- the cover has an internal face provided with one or more lugs which are configured to fit into the orifice or orifices 611a of the bottom 611.
- the main body 61 of the cover 6 is obtained without the formation of orifices at the level of the bottom 611. For this embodiment, it is not necessary to provide an additional cover on the external face. from the bottom 611.
- the ready-to-use case 1 can be in the closed position, in which the cover 6 is completely screwed onto the base 2, and the second skirt 613 of said cover advantageously at least partly conceals the ring 81 of the intermediate piece 8; and in which the counter-form(s) 68 are positioned in the first locking chamber(s) 87a, the locking lug 27 being engaged in the housing 83 formed on the ring 81.
- the user first unscrews the cover 6 from the base 2. This movement is accompanied by a free sliding of the counter-form(s) 68 in the helical groove(s) 84 from the first locking chamber(s) 87a to the second locking chamber(s) 87b.
- the output and/or the entry of the counter-form(s) 68 into the locking chamber(s) 87a, 87b is marked by a click.
- the cover 6 is locked on the intermediate part 8 due to the positioning of the counter-form(s) 68 in the second locking chamber(s) 87b.
- the user can then release the assembly formed by the cover 6 and the intermediate piece 8 from the locking lug 27, and open the case 1 by pivoting said assembly around the pivot axis P.
- the pivoting of the assembly formed by the cover 6 and the intermediate part 8 with respect to the base 21 is regular, that is to say carried out without relative movement of said cover 6 with respect to said intermediate part 8, this thanks to the immobilization of said cover on the ring 81 via the locking chamber(s) 87b.
- Said pivoting makes it possible in particular to position the cover 6 angularly with respect to the base 1 so as to view the mirror 62 (see figure 6 ).
- the positioning of the counter-form(s) 68 in the locking chamber(s) 87b at the end of unscrewing is such that, after the cover 6 has been folded down onto the base 2, the screw thread of said cover 6 is aligned with the screw thread of said base.
- the closing of the case 1 by screwing the cover 61 back onto the base 21 is thereby facilitated.

Afin de permettre son blocage réversible sur la première partie 21 de la base 2, la pièce intermédiaire 8 comprend également au moins un logement 83 configuré pour recevoir une patte de blocage 27 formée au niveau du plateau horizontal 215 de ladite première partie 21. Le logement 83 est formé au niveau du bord inférieur 811a de la bague 81, préférentiellement à l'opposé de la projection 82.In order to allow its reversible locking on the
Selon un mode préférentiel de réalisation de l'invention, la charnière 9 assurant le pivotement de la pièce intermédiaire 8 par rapport à la première partie 21 de la base 2 est positionnée sur une partie inférieure de ladite première partie 21.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the
Pour ce faire, en référence à la
Un tel positionnement de la charnière 9 permet de réduire l'encombrement général du boîtier 1.Such a positioning of the
Selon l'invention, la pièce intermédiaire 8 est configurée pour accompagner le vissage ou le dévissage du couvercle 6 par rapport à la base 2, préférentiellement entre deux positions de blocage de tout mouvement relatif dudit couvercle 6 par rapport à ladite pièce intermédiaire 8.According to the invention, the
Pour ce faire, dans le mode de réalisation illustré à la
De façon avantageuse, la face interne 613b du couvercle 6 comprend trois contre-forme radiales 68 qui sont réparties angulairement et espacées entre elles préférentiellement de 120°. La face externe 81c de la bague 81 comprend trois rainures hélicoïdales 84 homologues qui sont également réparties angulairement tel que chaque rainure hélicoïdale 84 présente une portion supérieure s'étendant au-dessus d'une portion inférieure d'une rainure hélicoïdale adjacente.Advantageously, the
Une telle configuration de contre-formes 68 et rainures 84 permet un bon maintien du couvercle 6 sur la pièce intermédiaire 8 en limitant notamment tout risque de basculement dudit couvercle par rapport à ladite pièce intermédiaire 8.Such a configuration of
En particulier, ladite rainure hélicoïdale 84 présente un pas de vis identique à celui du filetage 67 du couvercle 6. Ceci prévient toute interférence de la pièce intermédiaire 8 sur le mouvement de vissage et de dévissage du couvercle 6 par rapport à la base 2.In particular, said
En outre, ladite rainure hélicoïdale 84 est pourvue d'une première butée d'extrémité 85a et/ou d'une deuxième butée d'extrémité 85b, ici formées par des parois d'extrémité de ladite rainure hélicoïdale 84. Ladite rainure hélicoïdale 84 est également pourvue d'une première butée intermédiaire 86a adjacente à ladite première butée d'extrémité 85a et/ou d'une deuxième butée intermédiaire 86b adjacente à ladite deuxième butée d'extrémité 85b.Furthermore, said
Chaque butée d'extrémité 85a, 85b forme avec sa butée intermédiaire adjacente 86a, 86b une chambre de verrouillage 87a, 87b dans laquelle s'engage ladite contre-forme 68, en fin de vissage et/ou en fin de dévissage du couvercle 6 par rapport à la base 2. Ladite chambre de verrouillage 87a, 87b présente une profondeur supérieure à celle de ladite rainure hélicoïdale 84 suivant l'épaisseur de la bague 81. Ainsi, l'engagement de ladite contre-forme 68 dans ladite chambre de verrouillage 87a, 87b permet de bloquer tout mouvement relatif dudit couvercle 6 par rapport à la pièce intermédiaire 8 en fin de vissage et/ou en fin de dévissage dudit couvercle 6 par rapport à ladite base 2. En particulier, en fin de dévissage, un tel engagement de la contre-forme 68 dans la chambre de verrouillage 87b permet d'immobiliser le couvercle 6 sur la pièce intermédiaire 8 lors du pivotement dudit couvercle par rapport à la base 2.Each
Dans un mode de réalisation non représenté et conforme à l'invention, la ou les contre-formes 68 sont positionnées sur la face externe 81c de la bague 81. La ou les rainures hélicoïdales ainsi que les butées associées sont alors formées au niveau de la face interne 613b de la deuxième jupe 613.In an embodiment not shown and in accordance with the invention, the counter-form(s) 68 are positioned on the external face 81c of the ring 81. The helical groove(s) as well as the associated stops are then formed at the level of the
Dans un autre mode de réalisation non représenté et conforme à l'invention, l'accompagnement du vissage ou dévissage du couvercle 6 par la bague 81 de la pièce intermédiaire 8 met en oeuvre comme première paroi d'interface une face externe 612c de la première jupe 612, et comme deuxième paroi d'interface une face interne 81b de ladite bague 81. L'une de ces deux parois d'interface comprend alors la ou les rainures hélicoïdales ainsi que les butées associées, l'autre de ces parois d'interface comprend la ou les contre-formes.In another embodiment not shown and in accordance with the invention, the accompaniment of the screwing or unscrewing of the
Selon un mode préférentiel de réalisation de l'invention, les butées intermédiaires 86a, 86b de chaque rainure hélicoïdale 84 sont configurées pour être franchies par les contre-formes 68 du couvercle 61 par encliquetage, produisant ainsi un clic éventuellement sonore, destiné à marquer le début ou la fin du vissage ou du dévissage du couvercle 6 par rapport à la base 2.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the
De façon avantageuse, le fond 611 ainsi que la première jupe latérale 612 et la deuxième jupe latérale 613 qui forment le corps principal 61 du couvercle 6 sont réalisés en une seule pièce. Une telle pièce est obtenue par exemple par moulage par injection ou toute autre technique connue de l'homme du métier. Le matériau de fabrication du corps principal 61 du couvercle 6 est choisi parmi l'aluminium, un alliage d'aluminium, un polymère, etc.Advantageously, the bottom 611 as well as the
Pour une fabrication par moulage par injection, il est nécessaire d'anticiper les difficultés de démoulage, notamment celles liées à la présence de la ou des contre-forme 68 dans un espace étroit que constitue la première gorge annulaire 64.For manufacture by injection molding, it is necessary to anticipate the difficulties of demoulding, in particular those related to the presence of the counter-form or forms 68 in a narrow space formed by the first
Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, on réalise le moulage par injection à l'aide d'un moule qui comprend au moins une coquille externe et au moins une coquille interne. La coquille externe présente une paroi, dite paroi horizontale externe, qui est configurée pour former une face externe du fond 611. En outre, la coquille externe présente une paroi, dite paroi verticale externe, qui est configurée pour former une face externe de la jupe externe 613. La coquille interne présente une paroi, dite paroi horizontale interne, qui est configurée pour former une face interne du fond 611. En outre, la coquille interne présente une paroi supérieure, dite première paroi verticale interne, qui est configurée pour former une portion supérieure de la face interne 613b de la jupe externe 613, et une paroi inférieure, dite deuxième paroi verticale interne, qui est configurée pour former une portion inférieure de la face interne 613b de la jupe externe 613. Les parois verticales internes de la coquille interne sont deux éléments distincts qui sont configurés pour être positionnés de part et d'autre de la ou des régions du moule destinées à la formation de la ou des contre-formes 68.According to one embodiment of the invention, the injection molding is carried out using a mold which comprises at least one outer shell and at least one inner shell. The outer shell has a wall, called the outer horizontal wall, which is configured to form an outer face of the bottom 611. In addition, the outer shell has a wall, called the outer vertical wall, which is configured to form an outer face of the skirt
Pour réaliser la ou les contre-formes 68 sur la face interne 613b de la jupe externe 613, la coquille externe présente au moins un noyau, dit noyau supérieur, qui s'étend depuis la paroi horizontale externe. Ce ou ces noyaux supérieurs sont positionnés contre la première paroi verticale interne. La coquille interne présente au moins un noyau, dit noyau inférieur, qui est positionné contre la deuxième paroi verticale interne. Le ou les noyaux supérieurs sont configurés pour être alignés avec le ou les noyaux inférieurs dans la ou les régions du moule destinées à la formation de la ou des contre-formes 68. Ainsi, une portion supérieure de la ou des contre-formes 68 est obtenue à l'aide du ou des noyaux supérieurs. Une portion inférieure de la ou des contre-formes 68 est obtenue à l'aide du ou des noyaux inférieurs.To produce the counter-form(s) 68 on the
Le ou les noyaux inférieurs, de même que le ou les noyaux supérieurs, présentent une forme en dépouille. Grâce à cette forme, l'extraction du corps principal 61 du moule est réalisée sans difficultés selon un démoulage dit naturel.The lower core or cores, like the upper core or cores, have a tapered shape. Thanks to this shape, the extraction of the
Après le démoulage, le corps principal 61 présente au niveau du fond 611 un ou des orifices 611a. Cet orifice ou ces orifices 611a indiquent la présence antérieure du ou des noyaux supérieurs dans le moule. Cet orifice ou ces orifices 611a débouchent dans la gorge annulaire 64 au droit de la ou des contre-formes 68 (voir
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, on associe au moule d'injection une ou des cales montantes qui sont destinées, après solidification du matériau de moulage, à permettre une ouverture en douceur du moule et à libérer la ou les contre-formes 68 sans affecter l'intégrité structurelle de celle(s)-ci. La ou les cales montantes sont introduites à l'intérieur du moule de sorte à être positionnées au voisinage d'une ou des régions dans laquelle ou dans lesquelles la ou les contre-formes 68 sont destinées à être formées. Une portion de la ou des cales montantes reste à l'extérieur du moule.According to another embodiment, one or more rising wedges are associated with the injection mold which are intended , after solidification of the molding material, to allow a smooth opening of the mold and to release the counter-form(s) 68 without affecting the structural integrity thereof. The riser(s) are introduced inside the mold so as to be positioned in the vicinity of one or more regions in which the counter-form(s) 68 are intended to be formed. A portion of the riser(s) remains outside the mold.
Plus spécifiquement, la ou les cales montantes sont introduites dans le moule à travers une paroi du moule qui est destinée à la formation du fond 611 du corps principal 61. Après solidification du matériau de moulage, la ou les cales montantes sont retirées du moule par coulissement à travers le corps principal 61 ainsi formé. Celui-ci présente alors au niveau du fond 611 un ou des orifices 611a témoin(s) de la présence antérieure de la ou des cales montantes dans le moule. Cet orifice ou ces orifices 611a débouchent dans la gorge annulaire 64 au droit de la ou des contre-formes 68 (voir
Afin de masquer le ou les orifices 611a formés à travers le fond 611 du corps 61, on prévoit un capot (non illustré) sur la face externe dudit fond 611. Ce capot a donc une fonction d'enjoliveur. En complément, il peut servir de support pour tout type de marquage sur le corps supérieur 61 du couvercle 6. En outre ce capot est fixé sur la face externe du fond 611 par encliquetage. Pour ce faire, la face externe du fond 611 présente un rebord circulaire formant un logement dans lequel s'emboîte le capot. En variante et/ou en complément, le capot présente une face interne pourvue d'une ou des pattes qui sont configurées pour s'emboîter dans le ou les orifices 611a du fond 611.In order to mask the orifice(s) 611a formed through the
Dans un mode de réalisation non illustré, le corps principal 61 du couvercle 6 est obtenu sans la formation d'orifices au niveau du fond 611. Pour ce mode de réalisation, il n'est pas nécessaire de prévoir un capot additionnel sur la face externe du fond 611.In an embodiment not illustrated, the
Le boîtier 1 prêt à l'emploi peut se présenter en position fermée, dans laquelle le couvercle 6 est complètement vissé sur la base 2, et la deuxième jupe 613 dudit couvercle dissimule avantageusement au moins en partie la bague 81 de la pièce intermédiaire 8 ; et dans laquelle la ou les contre-formes 68 sont positionnées dans la ou les premières chambres de verrouillage 87a, la patte de blocage 27 étant engagée dans le logement 83 formé sur la bague 81.The ready-to-
Pour l'ouverture du boîtier 1, l'utilisateur dévisse dans un premier temps le couvercle 6 de la base 2. Ce mouvement s'accompagne d'un coulissement libre de la ou des contre-formes 68 dans la ou les rainures hélicoïdales 84 depuis la ou les premières chambres de verrouillage 87a vers la ou les deuxièmes chambres de verrouillage 87b. La sortie et/ou l'entrée de la ou des contre-formes 68 dans la ou les chambres de verrouillage 87a, 87b est marquée par un clic. A la fin du dévissage, le couvercle 6 est verrouillé sur la pièce intermédiaire 8 du fait du positionnement de la ou des contre-formes 68 dans la ou les deuxièmes chambres de verrouillage 87b. L'utilisateur peut alors libérer l'ensemble formé par le couvercle 6 et la pièce intermédiaire 8 de la patte de blocage 27, et ouvrir le boîtier 1 par pivotement dudit ensemble autour de l'axe de pivotement P.To open the
Le pivotement de l'ensemble formé par le couvercle 6 et la pièce intermédiaire 8 par rapport à la base 21 est régulier, c'est-à-dire exécuté sans mouvement relatif dudit couvercle 6 par rapport à ladite pièce intermédiaire 8, ceci grâce à l'immobilisation dudit couvercle sur la bague 81 par l'intermédiaire de la ou des chambres de verrouillage 87b. Ledit pivotement permet en particulier de positionner le couvercle 6 angulairement par rapport à la base 1 de sorte à visualiser le miroir 62 (voir
Le positionnement de la ou des contre-forme 68 dans la ou les chambres de verrouillage 87b en fin de dévissage est tel que, après rabattement du couvercle 6 sur la base 2, le pas de vis dudit couvercle 6 est aligné sur le pas de vis de ladite base. Ainsi, la fermeture du boîtier 1 par revissage du couvercle 61 sur la base 21 s'en trouve facilitée.The positioning of the counter-form(s) 68 in the locking chamber(s) 87b at the end of unscrewing is such that, after the
