Definitions
- the present invention relates to a product dispensing device and system for selecting one of the products for dispensing as well as methods of using and recharging such a system.
- the invention relates to a device and a system for dispensing customizable cosmetic products allowing the user to choose different products.
- a large number of product distributors are known. For example, liquid soap dispensers, mascaras, nail polishes, etc.
- these dispensers only allow the distribution of a single product. So, if a user needs several different products, they must purchase as many dispensers as there are products needed. In addition, these dispensers are single-use, thus implying a large quantity of waste.
- the device according to the invention allows a user to choose a product from a plurality of products contained in a single device.
- the device includes a reduced number of elements necessary for the selection and distribution of the product.
- the device according to the invention is therefore compact and easy to use.
- the body has a body axis
- the distribution opening is included in a first end of the body and has a distribution axis substantially parallel to the body axis, each location has a location axis, said location axis being, in the distribution position, aligned with the distribution axis, and said location axis being spaced from the distribution axis in the storage position.
- each location is positioned around a pivot axis parallel to the body axis, the location axis is parallel to the pivot axis and the selector comprises a rotary ring allowing each location to be moved between the distribution position and the storage position by rotating the product support around the pivot axis.
- the positioning of the locations around the pivot axis makes it possible to optimize the compactness of the device and facilitates the movement of the locations by simple rotation around a single axis parallel to the body axis and therefore parallel to the distribution axis .
- each location is able to accommodate a packaging element containing the product.
- each packaging element comprises a packaging wall, a packaging axis, an open end substantially perpendicular to the packaging axis and a packaging cap cooperating with said packaging element in order to close reversibly the open end of said packaging element.
- the packaging cap makes it possible, thanks to the closure of the packaging element, to avoid dispersion of the product outside the packaging element when handling the packaging element outside the device. It is the same when the packaging elements are in the device: handling the device does not cause the product to spill inside the device thanks to the packaging cap.
- each packaging cap comprises an application device configured to apply the product, a first end of the application device being fixed to the packaging cap, and a second end configured to apply the product being placed in the packaging element when the packaging cap closes the open end of said packaging element.
- the application device allows easy application of a liquid product, for example lipstick or mascara.
- the application device collects the product when the packaging cap closes the open end of said element packaging and transports the collected product outside the device by removing the packaging cap.
- the device further comprises a body cap cooperating with the body in order to reversibly close the dispensing opening, the body cap and the packaging cap being configured so that a Removal of the body cap from the dispensing opening simultaneously results in removal of the packaging cap from the open end of the packaging member in the dispensing position.
- a single body cap allows the user to independently manipulate different application devices or access the interior of the chosen packaging element.
- the morphology and use of the device is therefore close to that known by a user for a single product device.
- the body cap comprises a first reversible fixing element and each packaging cap comprises a second reversible fixing element, the first fixing element being able to cooperate, when the location is in the dispensing position, with the second reversible fixing element so as to fix the packaging cap to the body cap.
- the reversible fixing element makes it possible to fix the packaging cap to the body cap so as to remove the packaging cap and therefore open the packaging element by simply removing the body cap. Reversibility allows, when the body cap closes the distribution opening (and therefore the packaging cap closes the packaging element), to select another packaging element by moving the product support, the two previously fixed caps can then separate then the body cap can attach to another conditioning cap.
- the first and second reversible fixing elements are respectively first and second magnetic contact surfaces, in particular transverse.
- the body plug comprises an extension extending along an extension axis and configured to be aligned with the dispensing opening when the body plug cooperates with the body, the extension carrying the first magnetic contact surface, and a holding element configured to receive the packaging cap and mounted on the extension sliding along the extension axis between a retracted position when the body cap is placed on the body, and a securing position when the body plug is moved away from the body, such that in the securing position, the holding element receives the packaging plug of the packaging element received in the location placed in the position of distribution, and in the retracted position, the holding element is moved away from the packaging cap of the packaging element at the location in the distribution position.
- the holding element makes it possible to secure the attachment between the body cap and the packaging cap in order to avoid the tilting of the application device by a shear force applied to the application device during the application of the product by an user.
- This embodiment also allows automatic positioning of the holding element around the body cap and the packaging cap when removing the body cap. Thus, security is automatic and does not require user intervention, which facilitates the use and security of the device.
- the device further comprises a separator configured to apply a shearing force on the packaging cap during the passage from the distribution position to the storage position of the location receiving the element conditioning.
- the separator facilitates the separation between the body cap and the packaging cap when selecting another packaging element by moving the product support.
- the body comprises a second open end and the device further comprises a base capable of closing reversibly said second end, the product support being able to be dislodged from the body by the second open end.
- the removable base makes it easier to change the packaging elements without being hampered by the different elements placed on the other end of the body in the distribution of the product (cap, distribution opening, holding element, etc.).
- each location comprises a bottom substantially perpendicular to the location axis in opposition to the distribution opening
- the packaging element is movable parallel to the location axis between a low position near the bottom, a high position away from the bottom
- the device comprises a lifting element configured to urge the conditioning element towards the high position
- Raising the packaging element when it is in the dispensing position makes it possible to preserve the hygiene and cleanliness of the device. Indeed, reinserting the application device inside the packaging element requires greater precision as the dispensing opening is narrow. Thus, it is possible that the user lacks precision and disperses the product around the dispensing opening. Raising the packaging element makes it easier to put the application device back in place; the lack of precision implying dispersion of the liquid only on the edge of the open end of the packaging element (which is moreover interchangeable) and not on the device.
- the device is a lipstick.
- the plurality of products that can be inserted into the device therefore makes it possible to choose from several shades of lipstick using only one device.
- the invention also relates to a system for dispensing a plurality of products, particularly cosmetic products, comprising the dispensing device and at least two products received respectively in the locations of the product support.
- the invention also relates to a method of using the dispensing system in which at least two products are placed in the locations of the dispensing device of a plurality of products, the method comprising a step of selecting a cosmetic product by moving one of the locations into the distribution position
- the reloading process therefore allows complete customization of the products inserted in the device in an ecological manner thanks to the reduction of waste.
- THE figures 1 to 11 represent a device (100) for dispensing a plurality of products according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- the products that can be distributed can be in solid or liquid form.
- the products are cosmetic products.
- the products can be foundation, mascara (in bar or liquid form), lipstick (in grape or liquid form) or nail polish.
- Different types of products can be included in the device (100).
- the device (100) may enable the dispensing of liquid mascara, grape lipstick and liquid lipstick.
- the products may differ from each other by one or more characteristics, in particular a color.
- the parts forming the general structure of the distribution device (100) are preferably non-ferromagnetic.
- the parts are also preferably waterproof, dustproof and airtight and resistant to shocks and scratches.
- the materials used can be biosourced, recycled or recyclable.
- the body (110) is shown in figures 1 to 3 .
- the side wall (112) can have a substantially longitudinal shape and therefore define a body axis (Z) represented at figures 1 to 3 .
- the side wall (112) of the body can for example be of parallelepiped, ellipsoidal, cylindrical or any shape.
- the body axis (Z) corresponds to the axis of revolution of the cylinder.
- the body (110) has a size that allows the device (100) to fit in a user's hand.
- the side wall (112) may include an observation opening (119) allowing visual access to the interior of the body (110) as shown in figures 1 to 3 .
- the side wall (112) defines two ends (114, 116) of the body corresponding to two surfaces delimited by edges of the side wall (112) opposed along the body axis.
- the volume defined by the side wall (112) and the two ends (114, 116) of the body makes it possible to separate the interior of the body (110) from the exterior of the body (110).
- the dispensing opening (117) is formed in a first end (114) of the body.
- the first end (114) of the body may comprise a closing wall (118) in which the dispensing opening (117) is formed.
- the closing wall (118) can advantageously be detachable from the body (110) in order to have easy access to the interior of the body (110).
- the first end (114) comprising the dispensing opening (117) can be defined as the upper end (the top or top) of the body (110).
- the second end (116) not including the dispensing opening (117) can be defined as the lower end (the underside or the bottom) of the body (110).
- the dispensing opening (117) has a dispensing axis (D) substantially parallel to the body axis (Z) ( figures 1 and 3 ).
- the distribution axis (D) is preferably distinct from the body axis (Z) but included inside the body (110).
- the device (100) may further comprise a base (120) capable of reversibly closing the second end (116) of the body.
- the base (120) can close the second end (116) with a clip system (122) comprising at least one push button (121) ( Figure 4 ) accessible from outside the body (110). The user can then push on the at least one push button (121) to detach the base (120) then replace the base (120) on the second end (116) by exerting pressure towards the inside of the body (110). ).
- the interior of the wall of the body (110) may comprise at least one guide groove (123) capable of cooperating with the clips (122) in order to lock the base (120) on the second end (116) of the body (see Figure 11C described in more detail later).
- the guide groove (123) can be present all along the circumference of the side wall (112) of the body. This allows the base (120) to be free to rotate relative to the side wall (112) of the body. Reversible closure of the base (120) is advantageous because the product holder (140) can then be dislodged from the body (110) through the second open end (116). Indeed, the product support (140) can be fixed on the base (120) so that removal of the base (120) results in removal of the product support (140) as shown in Figure 1. Figure 4 .
- the device (100) may further comprise a body plug (130) cooperating with the body (110) in order to reversibly close the dispensing opening (117) as shown in particular in figure 2 .
- the body cap (130) may also cover the entire first end (114) of the body.
- the body cap (130) may include an extension (132) extending along an extension axis (132) and configured to be aligned with the dispensing opening (117) when the cap engages with the body (110 ).
- the body plug (130) may include a retainer (134).
- the holding element (134) may be hollow and comprise an internal section corresponding to the external section of the extension (132).
- the body plug (130) may include a first reversible fastener (136a).
- This first reversible fixing element (136a) can for example be carried by the extension (132).
- the selector includes a product support (140) comprising at least two locations (144).
- the product holder (140) is movably accommodated in the body (110).
- the body (110) must be large enough to envelop the entire product support (140).
- the product holder (140) is also removable from the body (110) in that it can be inserted or removed therefrom.
- the product support (140) has a support axis (corresponding to the pivot axis (P) shown in Figure 5 ) and includes three locations (144) distributed around the support axis.
- Each location (144) may have a parallelepiped, cubic, ellipsoidal, cylindrical, spherical or any shape.
- Each location (144) may have a location axis (E) ( figures 4 and 5 ).
- the location axis (E) corresponds to the axis of revolution of the cylinder.
- the product support (140) can consist of three parts: an internal structure (141), an external structure (142) and a guide element (143). These three parts can fit together coaxially so that the internal structure (141) is housed in the external structure (142) thus creating, for each location (144) a closed location wall (144) delimiting the different locations (144).
- the guide element (143) can then fit onto the external structure (142).
- This guide element (143) includes as many openings as there are locations (144). The openings thus form open ends (145) of the locations (144).
- Each location (144) is able to accommodate a product.
- the product can for example be contained directly in the location (144).
- each location (144) is able to accommodate a packaging element (150) containing a product.
- This allows advantageously to change the cosmetic product to be distributed by simply changing the packaging element (150) without necessarily emptying and cleaning the corresponding location (144) as is the case when the location (144) directly includes the product.
- each packaging element (150) can be introduced through the open end (145) of the corresponding location (144), the opening of the guide element making it possible to guide the packaging element (150) parallel to the location axis (144).
- the selector is configured to move the product support (140) to move one of the locations (144) between a dispensing position in which said location (144) faces the dispensing opening (117) and a position storage in which said location (144) is spaced from the distribution opening (117).
- the location axis (E) can be aligned with the dispensing axis (D) ( figures 6 and 7 ).
- the location axis (E) is moved away from the distribution axis (D) in the storage position.
- the selector therefore makes it possible to choose a product to distribute among the products which can be placed in the different locations (144).
- the selector may include a rotating ring and each location (144) is positioned about a pivot axis (P) parallel to the body axis (Z).
- the pivot axis (P) coincides with the body axis (Z) ( figure 7 ).
- the location axis (E) is then parallel to the distribution axis (D) and preferably parallel to the pivot axis (P) so as to, when the rotary ring is actuated, allow one of the locations (144) between the distribution position and the storage position by rotation of the product support (140) around the pivot axis (P) relative to the side wall (112) of the body.
- the rotating ring can rotate the product carrier (140) in a first direction, in a second direction opposite the first direction, or in the first and second directions relative to the side wall (112) of the body. Since the body cap (130) and the dispensing opening (117) are fixed in rotation relative to the side wall (112) of the body, rotation of the product support (140) allows one of the locations (144) to be placed in its distribution position.
- the rotating ring is accessible from the outside of the body (110).
- the rotating ring is superimposed on the side wall (112) of the body.
- the rotating ring is the base (120) of the body, the latter being in free rotation thanks to the system of clips (122) and guide groove (123) explained above.
- the rotating ring may be user operable or may be automatically, mechanically, electronically and/or magnetically actuated.
- Each location (144) may include a bottom substantially perpendicular to the location axis (E) in opposition to the distribution opening (117) (on the bottom side of the body).
- this packaging element (150) can be movable parallel to the location axis (E) between a low position near the bottom, a position high away from the bottom.
- Each location (144) then includes a lifting element (146) configured to move the conditioning element (150) towards the upper position of the body (110).
- the lifting element (146) can for example be an elastic return element such as a compression spring ( figures 6 And 11A described later) or a flexible elastomer.
- the lifting element (146) can also be a pair of magnets, one positioned at the non-open end of the packaging element (150), the other positioned on the bottom of the location ( 144). The magnets are then configured to generate a repulsive force.
- the lifting element (146) may also be a magnet positioned at the non-open end of the packaging element (150) and a metal surface positioned on the bottom of the slot (144) or vice versa. The magnet is then configured to generate a repulsive force relative to the metal surface.
- the packaging element (150) shown in figure 8 is preferably placed movably in the location (144). It can preferentially move along the location axis (E) but also, as explained above, be removed from or inserted into the location (144) and therefore be removed from or inserted into the device (100 ).
- the packaging element (150) is in the form of a reservoir or a cartridge. It comprises a packaging wall, an open end (152) and a packaging cap (154) cooperating with said packaging element (150) in order to reversibly close the open end (152) of said packaging element (150) .
- This configuration of the packaging element (150) advantageously allows the packaging of liquid products.
- Each packaging element (150) can also include a conditioning axis (C) shown in figure 8 .
- the open end (152) is then substantially perpendicular to the conditioning axis (C).
- the packaging axis (C) is preferentially aligned with the location axis (E) and the open end (152) is directed towards the upper body (110) as shown for example in Figure 4 .
- Each packaging cap (154) may include an application device (156) configured to apply the product.
- the application device (156) preferably has a longitudinal shape comprising two ends. A first end of the application device (156) cooperates with the packaging cap (154) and a second end is placed in the corresponding packaging element (150) when the packaging cap (154) closes the open end ( 152) of the conditioning element (150).
- the length of the application device (156) is therefore preferably configured to reach the bottom of the element of packaging (150) when the packaging cap (154) closes the open end (152) of the packaging element (150).
- the width of the application device (156) is configured to insert through the open end (152) of the packaging element (150) as shown in figure 8 .
- the application device (156) is for example a brush for applying mascara or a brush for applying liquid lipstick or nail polish.
- the corresponding packaging element (150) may also comprise a wiper (158) positioned at its open end (152).
- the wringer (158) is hollow and has a side wall (112) flaring upwardly from a lower edge that has a minimum internal diameter substantially equal to or slightly less than the maximum external diameter of the application device (156). This allows, when removing the packaging cap (154), and therefore by extracting the application device (156) from the packaging element (150), to remove the excess liquid product located along the application device (156) or at its second end.
- the wiper (158) may advantageously comprise a flexible internal wall such as elastomer in order to increase the efficiency of removing excess product.
- the conditioning element (150) may also include a protrusion extending radially on its wall.
