Abstract

Container of the type of those having two compartments, characterised in that it has an upper compartment (2), obturated by a lid (3), and a lower compartment (1), obturated by a piston (4) forming a part of the bottom of the upper compartment, the said piston being connected to the said lid (3). The piston (4) is permanently connected to the lid (3) by means of a rod (5). The lid (3) has an orifice (6) which is normally obturated by a plug (7).

Description

La présente invention est relative à des perfectionnements aux récipients à deux compartiments. The present invention relates to improvements to containers with two compartments.

Pour de nombreuses applications on est amené à conditionner deux produits différents dans un réceptacle commun. Dans le domaine de la pharmacie, par exemple, on groupe sous le même emballage une ampoule comportant une solution et un flacon en verre renfermant le produit actif. For many applications, it is necessary to package two different products in a common receptacle. In the pharmacy field, for example, an ampoule comprising a solution and a glass vial containing the active product is grouped under the same packaging.


Quelle que soit l'application, le même problème se pose lorsqu'il s'agit de mélanger les deux produits: l'opération est longue et malaisée. A cela s'ajoute le fait que, dans la plupart des cas, le mélange doit être effectué juste au moment de l'utilisation.
Whatever the application, the same problem arises when it comes to mixing the two products: the operation is long and difficult. Added to this is the fact that, in most cases, mixing should be done just before use.

La présente invention, qui remédie à ces inconvénients, concerne un récipient à deux compartiments, obturé par un couvercle étanche, caractérisé en ce qu'il présente un compartiment supérieur et un compartiment inférieur, ce dernier étant obturé par un piston qui constitue une partie du fond du compartiment supérieur et qui est relié mécaniquement au couvercle dudit compartiment supérieur. The present invention, which overcomes these drawbacks, relates to a container with two compartments, closed by a tight lid, characterized in that it has an upper compartment and a lower compartment, the latter being closed by a piston which constitutes a part of the bottom of the upper compartment and which is mechanically connected to the cover of said upper compartment.

La présente invention sera mieux comprise par la description qui va suivre faite en se référant au dessin annexé, à titre d'exemple indicatif seulement, sur lequel
-la figure 1 est une vue, en coupe verticale, d'un récipient conforme à l'invention;
-la figure 2 est une vue, analogue à la figure 1, montrant un autre mode de réalisation.The present invention will be better understood from the description which follows made with reference to the appended drawing, by way of indicative example only, in which
FIG. 1 is a view, in vertical section, of a container according to the invention;
FIG 2 is a view, similar to Figure 1, showing another embodiment.

En se reportant au dessin et selon un mode de réalisation on voit que le récipient de l'invention présente deux compartiments 1 et 2, respectivement inférieur et supérieur, celui 2 étant obturé par un couvercle 3. Referring to the drawing and according to one embodiment, it can be seen that the container of the invention has two compartments 1 and 2, respectively lower and upper, that 2 being closed by a cover 3.

Le compartiment 1 est obturé par un piston 4 relié, par une tige 5, au couvercle 3. The compartment 1 is closed by a piston 4 connected, by a rod 5, to the cover 3.

De cette façon, on délimite deux compartiments, parfaitement étanches, pouvant recevoir des produits différents. Le retrait du couvercle 3, qui entraine le piston 4, provoque la chute, dans le compartiment 1, du produit contenu dans celui 2. In this way, we delimit two compartments, perfectly sealed, which can receive different products. The removal of the cover 3, which drives the piston 4, causes the product contained in that 2 to fall into compartment 1.

Comme cela ressort des dessins, le diamètre du compartiment 2 est supérieur à celui du compartiment 1.  As can be seen from the drawings, the diameter of compartment 2 is greater than that of compartment 1.

Pour remplir ce récipient, on place le premier produit dans le compartiment 1, puis on met en place le couvercle 3 ce qui a pour effet d'obturer ledit compartiment 1. Le second produit est introduit, ensuite, dans le compartiment 2 par un petit orifice 6 prévu dans le couvercle 3 et normalement obturé par un bouchon 7. To fill this container, the first product is placed in compartment 1, then the cover 3 is put in place which has the effect of closing said compartment 1. The second product is then introduced into compartment 2 by a small orifice 6 provided in the cover 3 and normally closed by a plug 7.

Si le second produit est un liquide, on peut l'introduire à l'aide d'une aiguille creuse perforant le couvercle 3. If the second product is a liquid, it can be introduced using a hollow needle perforating the cover 3.

A l'utilisation, pour effectuer un mélange convenable des deux produits, on replace l'ensemble 3-4-5 et on agite. In use, to effect a suitable mixing of the two products, the assembly 3-4-5 is replaced and stirred.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, montré sur la figure 2, des moyens sont prévus pour limiter la pénétration du piston 4 dans le compartiment 1. Un épaulement 8, par exemple, peut être prévu sur la paroi interne du compartiment I. According to another embodiment, shown in FIG. 2, means are provided for limiting the penetration of the piston 4 into the compartment 1. A shoulder 8, for example, can be provided on the internal wall of the compartment I.

Des moyens sont prévus, aussi, pour assembler la tige 5 et le couvercle 3 de façon à mettre en place, séparemment, le piston 4 et sa tige 5 puis, ensuite, le couvercle 3. Des moyens sont également prévus pour que le retrait du couvercle 3 détermine l'entraînement du piston 4
A cet effet, la partie supérieure de la tige 5 présente une protubérance 9 susceptible, lors de la mise en place du couvercle 3, de traverser élastiquement un trou du dit couvercle. Cet assemblage, par clipsage, permet de déterminer l'entraînement du piston 4 lors du retrait
du couvercle 3.Means are also provided for assembling the rod 5 and the cover 3 so as to set up, separately, the piston 4 and its rod 5 then, then, the cover 3. Means are also provided for the withdrawal of the cover 3 determines the piston drive 4
To this end, the upper part of the rod 5 has a protuberance 9 which, when the cover 3 is put in place, can pass elastically through a hole in the said cover. This assembly, by clipping, makes it possible to determine the drive of the piston 4 during removal.
cover 3.

Bien entendu, la présente invention s'étend à toutes variantes de
formes et dimensions.Of course, the present invention extends to all variants of
shapes and dimensions.

C'est ainsi, entre autres, que le fond du compartiment 2 peut être
incliné, comme montré en traits mixtes sur la figure 1, en 10. Thus, among other things, the bottom of compartment 2 can be
inclined, as shown in phantom in Figure 1, at 10.
