In some cases, the cover may include a gasket tightness or the like to improve its tightness.

However, this type of cosmetic packaging they are not usually made from a single piece, such as known containers of plastic for the food sector, since they require a correct tightness, and therefore, its manufacturing process is more complex and expensive as they are two separate pieces.

Moreover, the mentioned packages usually does not usually carry a suitable seal that guarantees that It has not been opened, which is inconvenient for the user of product.

Description of the invention

The objective of the container container of the present invention is to solve the disadvantages of packaging known in the art, providing a package that guarantees a correct tightness of the products contained, with a process of Simpler and cheaper manufacturing.

The container container, object of the present invention is of the type comprising a container, a lid articulated to said container by means of a flexible tongue as hinge, and opening and closing means, said container being made of a single piece of plastic material, and is characterized due to the fact that the cover includes an element inside shutter capable of tightly closing the container.

In this way, thanks to the shutter element you get a container made of a single piece of plastic that It allows a correct sealing of its contained products.

Preferably, the sealing element of the cover comprises a perimeter wing provided with an annular shoulder of Adjustable tightness over the top edge of the container. Saying annular highlight guarantees the correct sealing of the products contents that are usually in a liquid state, semi-liquid or pasty.

Advantageously, the package comprises a seal of security susceptible to block the cover before the first opening of the container Therefore, once the container has been closed with the products contained inside, said seal is applied of security.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the seal comprises a blocking element coupled to the container and to the lid in the front opening and closing area, including said blocking element an opening capable of holding a grip tab belonging to the lid.

Advantageously, the blocking element is coupled by tear points. This system of union allows the user of the container to remove the seal from a simple way.

Preferably, the blocking element includes a lateral grip strip provided to facilitate tearing and total seal extraction.

Advantageously, the opening and closing means they are lace elements belonging to the lid and the container respectively coupled to each other by pressure. In this way, the container user can easily open and close the lid of a Fast and efficient way.

Description of a preferred embodiment

As can be seen in figures 1 and 2, container container 1 of the present invention comprises a container 2, a lid 3 articulated to said container 2 by a flexible tongue 4 as a hinge, and opening means and closing 5, 5 ', said container 1 being made of a single piece of plastic material.

Also, the cover 3 includes inside a sealing element 6 capable of sealing the container 1. Thus, thanks to said sealing element 6, you get a container 1 made of a single piece of plastic that It allows a correct sealing of its contained products.

As can be seen in Figures 5 and 6, the sealing element 6 of the cover 3 comprises a perimeter wing 7 provided with an annular shoulder 8 of adjustable sealing on the upper edge of the container 2. Said annular shoulder 8 guarantees the correct tightness of the products contained that generally they are usually in a liquid, semi-liquid or pasty.

The package 1 further comprises a seal of security 9 capable of locking the cover 3 before the first opening of container 1 (see figures 1 and 5). Therefore, once it has been Closed container 1 with the products contained inside, it this security seal applies 9.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to figures 3 to 5, the seal 9 comprises a blocking element 10 coupled to the container 2 and the lid 3 in the front opening and closing area, including said element blocker 10 an opening 11 capable of holding a flange of grip 12 belonging to the cover 3. In figure 3 it has represented the semi-open container 1 for reasons of clarity for see in more detail said grip tab 12 and seal 9.

Said blocking element 10 is coupled by tear-off junction points 13. This joint system allows the user of the container 1 to extract the seal 9 in a manner simple. In addition, said blocking element 9 includes a strip lateral grip 14 provided to facilitate tearing and total removal of the seal 9.

Once the seal 9 is removed, the means of opening and closing are released for use. Sayings opening and closing means of the container 1 are lace elements 5, 5 'belonging to lid 3 and container 2 respectively can be coupled to each other by pressure, as can be seen in the figure 6.

In this way, the user of the container 1 can Easily open and close lid 3 quickly and efficiently. It should be noted that to facilitate the opening and closing by pressure of the cover 3 is provided with said grip tab 12.
