Abstract

The base plug 3 has the shape of a cylindrical tube 6, one end 9 of which is closed by a wall 8 which acts as a plug and the other end of which is open and forms the base proper. This ball 1 is open in its lower part where its opening 2 is closed by a base plug 3; the walls 4 of the opening 2 of the ball 1 are driven into a slot 5 closed at the end of the cylindrical tube 6. At the level of the slot 5 which receives the walls 4 of the opening 2 of the envelope 1, means 11 acting as a sucking device, ensure and strengthen the position and the leaktightness of the base plug 3. Base plug 3 for displaying objects in a transparent glass ball full of liquid.

Description

L'invention a pour objet un socle bouchon pour présenter des objets dans une enveloppe transparente remplie de liquide. The subject of the invention is a plug base for presenting objects in a transparent envelope filled with liquid.

I1 existe de nombreuses enveloppes transparentes notamment en verre qui sont remplies de liquide et qui présentent des objets tels que des fleurs. Ces enveloppes transparentes sont généralement des boules de verre. There are many transparent envelopes, notably made of glass, which are filled with liquid and which present objects such as flowers. These transparent envelopes are generally glass balls.

Différents moyens ont été utilisés pour assurer la fermeture et l'étanchéité de l'ouverture de ces enveloppes. Une fois ces moyens mis en oeuvre, un socle était adjoint pour assurer la stabilité de ces enveloppes. Various means have been used to ensure the closing and sealing of the opening of these envelopes. Once these means implemented, a base was added to ensure the stability of these envelopes.

L'invention tend à résoudre ces problèmes. Ainsi il a été inventé un socle bouchon qui assure en combinaison, les fonctions de bouchon pour l'étanchéité et de socle pour la stabilité. The invention tends to solve these problems. Thus, a plug base was invented which, in combination, provides the functions of a plug for sealing and a base for stability.

Le socle bouchon selon l'invention est en matière plastique souple. The plug base according to the invention is made of flexible plastic.

I1 a une forme cylindrique, un des orifices dudit cylindre est fermé par une paroi qui ferme l'ouverture de l'enveloppe transparente et dont les parois viennent pénétrer dans une profonde rainure. L'autre extrémité du cylindre est ouverte et forme le socle proprement dit. I1 has a cylindrical shape, one of the orifices of said cylinder is closed by a wall which closes the opening of the transparent envelope and the walls of which come into a deep groove. The other end of the cylinder is open and forms the base itself.

Au niveau de la rainure qui reçoit les parois de l'ouverture de l'enveloppe, des moyens faisant office de ventouse, assurent et renforcent le maintien et l'étanchéité du socle bouchon. A cet effet, il peut être disposé au fond de la rainure souple, une lèvre souple qui, sous l'action des parois en entrant dans ladite rainure, va évacuer une petite quantité de liquide et qui lorsque la rainure se ferme sur lesdites parois, viendra par effet de ventouse, se coller aux extrémités desdistes parois. At the groove which receives the walls of the opening of the envelope, means acting as a suction cup, ensure and reinforce the maintenance and tightness of the plug base. To this end, a flexible lip can be placed at the bottom of the flexible groove which, under the action of the walls when entering said groove, will evacuate a small amount of liquid and which when the groove closes on said walls, will come by suction effect, stick to the ends of the said walls.

Les dessins ci-joints donnés à titre d'exemple indicatif et non limitatif permettront aisément de comprendre l'invention. Ils représentent un mode de réalisation préféré selon l'invention. The attached drawings given by way of indicative and non-limiting example will easily make it possible to understand the invention. They represent a preferred embodiment according to the invention.

La figure 1 est une vue en coupe de la boule de verre transparente et de son socle bouchon. Figure 1 is a sectional view of the transparent glass ball and its plug base.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe de la boule de verre. Figure 2 is a sectional view of the glass ball.

La figure 3 est une vue en coupe de l'objet à présenter, une fleur, une miniature, personnage ou animale, et du socle bouchon. Figure 3 is a sectional view of the object to be presented, a flower, a miniature, character or animal, and the plug base.

La figure 4 est une vue en coupe du profil du socle bouchon et de l'extrémité de la paroi de l'ouverture de la boule de verre, en cours d'introduction dans la rainure. Figure 4 is a sectional view of the profile of the plug base and the end of the wall of the opening of the glass ball, being introduced into the groove.

La figure 5 est une vue en coupe du profil du socle bouchon et de l'extrémité de la paroi de l'ouverture de la boule. Figure 5 is a sectional view of the profile of the plug base and the end of the wall of the opening of the ball.

Dans la figure 1, 1'enveloppe transparente est représentée par une boule en verre transparente 1, cette boule 1 est ouverte dans sa partie inférieure où son ouverture 2 est fermée par un socle bouchon 3. Les parois 4 de l'ouverture 2 de la boule 1, s'enfoncent dans une rainure 5 fermée à l'extrémité du tube cylindre 6. In FIG. 1, the transparent envelope is represented by a transparent glass ball 1, this ball 1 is open in its lower part where its opening 2 is closed by a plug base 3. The walls 4 of the opening 2 of the ball 1, sink into a closed groove 5 at the end of the cylinder tube 6.

Dans la boule de verre 1 est disposée, sur le socle bouchon, un personnage ou une fleur miniaturisé 7. Cet objet 7 à présenter peut, par exemple, être maintenu sur le socle bouchon 3 par collage. In the glass ball 1 is placed, on the stopper base, a character or a miniaturized flower 7. This object 7 to be presented can, for example, be kept on the stopper base 3 by gluing.

Une extrémité 9 du cylindre 6 comporte une rainure 5 et est fermée par une paroi 8 qui ferme l'ouverture 2 de ladite boule de verre 1. One end 9 of the cylinder 6 has a groove 5 and is closed by a wall 8 which closes the opening 2 of said glass ball 1.

L'autre extrémité 10 du cylindre 6 est ouverte et forme le socle proprement dit. The other end 10 of the cylinder 6 is open and forms the base itself.

Comme représenté dans la figure 5, au niveau de la rainure 5 qui reçoit les parois 4 de l'ouverture 2 de l'enveloppe 1, des moyens 11 faisant office de ventouse, assurent et renforcent le maintien et l'étanchéité du socle bouchon 3. A cet effet, il peut être disposé au fond de la rainure souple 5, une lèvre souple 12 qui, sous l'action des parois 4, en entrant dans ladite rainure 5, va évacuer une petite quantité de liquide, et qui, lorsque la rainure 5 se ferme sur lesdites parois 4, viendra, par effet de ventouse, se coller aux extrémités desdites parois 4. Bien entendu, la boule de verre 1 peut être remplie de liquide et éventuellement de poudre métallique ou autre moyen analogue qui, en agitant ladite boule de verre 1 donnera un effet esthétique de neige. As shown in Figure 5, at the groove 5 which receives the walls 4 of the opening 2 of the casing 1, means 11 acting as a suction cup, ensure and strengthen the maintenance and tightness of the plug base 3 To this end, there may be disposed at the bottom of the flexible groove 5, a flexible lip 12 which, under the action of the walls 4, by entering said groove 5, will evacuate a small amount of liquid, and which, when the groove 5 closes on said walls 4, will come, by suction effect, to stick to the ends of said walls 4. Of course, the glass ball 1 can be filled with liquid and possibly with metallic powder or other similar means which, in shaking said glass ball 1 will give an aesthetic effect of snow.
