PATENT APPLICATION B07-4292EN -ODE / EVH OA08007

Société Anonyme known as L'OREAL Device for packaging and dispensing a product, in particular a cosmetic product stick and corresponding product distribution method. Invention of: Marcel SANCHEZ May CHEN

Device for packaging and dispensing a product, in particular a cosmetic product stick and corresponding product dispensing method.

The invention relates to the field of devices for packaging and dispensing a product, in particular a cosmetic product. "Cosmetic product" means a product as defined in Council Directive 93/35 / EEC of 14 June 1993.

The present invention relates more particularly to the field of devices for packaging and dispensing a product stick such as a lipstick, a foundation, a treating or moisturizing composition of the lips, or a deodorant.

But it is not beyond the scope of the invention when such a device is intended for packaging and dispensing a product that is not in stick form. Indeed, the invention relates, in general, to a device for packaging and dispensing a product which comprises a body containing the product, a cap adapted to come to cap the body and a gripping member mounted on the body and used to extract the body of the hood or simply to disengage in part to allow its total extraction. With regard to the devices for packaging and dispensing a product stick, the stick is generally packaged in a movable support cup inside a body by means of driving means capable of enabling its operation. moving from a storage position to a position of use of the product, and vice versa.

To protect the product stick when the support cup is in its storage position, it is used in some embodiments a closure cap that caps the body.

The body and the hood are often cylindrical and adopt a complementary shape so that in the storage position, or non-use, the body is located in the extension of the hood. In some embodiments, in the non-use position, only a portion of the body, constituted by a wheel for controlling the displacement of the cup, remains accessible and can be manually entered to extract the body. In this regard, reference may be made to US Pat. No. 2,456,948 or US Pat. No. 2,653,339, which describes means for driving the cup by rotation. It is also known from US Pat. No. 1,850,934 to use, as a drive means, a manually grippable member for exerting a force directly on the cup to push the product out of the body.

It is also possible to use resilient means that urge the stick into the output position, adjustable locking means being used to lock the stick in predetermined positions. Such an arrangement is for example described in US 1,602,823. In general, it is known in the state of the art, various types of gestures for manipulating a device for packaging and dispensing a product stick. In some embodiments, it is intended to clear the body using one hand. According to other gestures, both hands must be used.

But, in any case, there is a need for a device for packaging and dispensing a product, including a product stick, which can easily clear the hood body by means of a simple gesture and this, in an arrangement relatively easy to manufacture.

To achieve this objective, it is thus proposed a device for packaging and dispensing a product, comprising: a body containing the product; - a hood suitable for styling the body; and - a gripping member mounted on the body, and wherein the gripping member is rotatably mounted on the body about an axis transverse to a direction of movement of the cap relative to the body so as to cooperate with the hood for relative movement of the hood relative to the body. In other words, during the maneuvering of the gripping member, it comes to bend on the bonnet, resulting in a primer body exit which can subsequently be completely clear of the cover.

According to another characteristic of the device according to the invention, the axis of rotation of the gripping element is shifted laterally with respect to an axis of the body according to which the body is introduced into the hood, so that it extends substantially in the extension of a peripheral wall of the body. The axis of rotation is for example tangential to an edge of the body in a section transverse to the axis in which it is introduced into the hood. For example, in full insertion position of the body in the hood, the axis extends substantially in the plane or recessed from a free end edge of the hood.

In one embodiment, the gripping member is rotatably mounted about the transverse axis between a first rest position in which it retracts at least partially into a housing made in the body, and an active position deployed. in which it is bent against the hood to clear the body of the hood.

Advantageously provided in the gripping member and in the cover, corresponding bearing surfaces of generally frustoconical shape. In various embodiments, the angle formed by each bearing surface may be between 10 degrees and 80 degrees, preferably equal to 45 degrees, with respect to a transverse end edge of the cover or the housing member. gripping. Preferably, there will be releasable holding means adapted to cooperate in the body, on the one hand, and in the hood, on the other hand, in particular by snapping.

For example, the outer peripheral surface of the body and the inner peripheral surface of the cover comprise at least one radial pad or an annular bead, and the other an annular groove adapted to receive said pad or bead.

It is also possible in the body, releasable means for holding the gripping member in the housing, in particular by snapping. In one embodiment, the gripping member is generally annular so that it can be grasped manually by the inside of the ring. The body may comprise an axial relief which engages, in the rest position of the gripping member, in a hollow, possibly through, practiced in said gripping member. For example, the relief comprises a first portion of generally circular cross section which engages in the hollow and a second portion for mounting the gripping member. The relief and the edge of the hollow may comprise, one, an annular groove, and the other at least one radial stud or an annular bead adapted to snap into the groove.

For example, the first part of the relief comprises a notch facilitating access to the gripping member when the hollow is through. The housing may be sized so that in the rest position, the gripping member is retracted entirely in the body and is flush with the end portion of the body. In another embodiment, the gripping member may be a solid ring having no gripping trough. For example, in the rest position of the gripping member and complete insertion of the body into the hood, it extends beyond the projection of the end edge of the hood. It can be manipulated from its outer circumference. For example, the gripping member is internally provided with a cavity for storing a product, in particular a perfume or a compacted powder.

In various embodiments, it is also possible to provide resilient return means for the gripping member in the rest position. According to yet another embodiment, the body internally comprises a support cup forming a seat for the product and movable relative to the body between a storage position and at least one position of product use, and means for driving the support cup comprising a guiding sheath adapted to axially guide the cup, and a casing surrounding the guiding sheath and provided with means capable of causing a displacement of the cup relative to the guiding sheath during a rotation of the sheath. envelope relative to the guiding sheath. The invention also relates to a method of dispensing a product by means of a device as defined above, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: - disengage the body of the hood by angularly moving the gripping member around the axis of rotation so that the gripping member cooperates with the cover to obtain a relative movement of the cover relative to the body; - extract the hood body; and - apply the product contained in the body. Other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the following description, given solely by way of nonlimiting example, and with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a view of profile of a device for packaging and dispensing a stick product according to a first embodiment of the invention; FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the device of FIG. 1; - Figure 3 is a sectional view along the line III-III of Figure 1, in the active position of the gripping member; - Figure 4 shows another sectional view along the line III-III of the device of Figure 1, in the rest position of the gripping member; - Figure 5 is a sectional view of the hood of the device of Figures 1 to 4; - Figure 6 is a sectional view of the body of the device of Figures 1 to 4; FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the body of FIG. 6; - Figure 8 is a sectional view, on a larger scale, of the gripping member of the device of Figures 1 to 4; - Figure 9 is a perspective view of another embodiment of a product packaging and dispensing device according to the invention; FIG. 10 is an exploded view of the device of FIG. 9; - Figures 11 and 12 show the gripping member of the device of Figures 9 and 10, respectively in the rest position and in the active position; and With reference to FIGS. 1 to 8, a first embodiment of a device for packaging and dispensing a product according to the invention, indicated by the general reference numeral 1, will first be described. the embodiment envisaged, the device 1 is intended to be used for packaging and dispensing a product stick, in particular a cosmetic product. The stick may for example be a lipstick or a care product for the lips, a deodorant ... However, it is readily apparent that the device 1 can also be applied to the packaging and distribution of other types of products. Similarly, the invention also applies to other types of devices than those illustrated in the figures. Indeed, the invention applies, in general, to a product packaging device comprising a body containing the product and a cap to cap the body, in a sliding movement, the cover used to hide the product or means for actuating the dispensing of said product. Indeed, with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the device 1 mainly comprises a body 2 intended to contain the product stick, a cover 3 in which the body 2 is housed between two uses, and a gripping member 4 articulated by means of an axis of rotation 5 on the body 2. The body 2 comprises a base 6 forming an operating member and a drive mechanism 7 ensuring the passage of the stick from a storage position, in which it is inserted in the body to one or more positions of use, wherein it extends at least partly outside the body 2, under the control of the operating member. As seen in the figures, in the embodiment shown, the device 1 has a generally cylindrical shape. In other words, the body 2, including the base 6 and the drive mechanism 7, and the cover 3 each have a cylindrical shape of axis X-X '. In order to ensure the preservation of the stick between two uses, the cover 3 comes to cap the body 2. The insertion movement of the body two in the cover 3 is here in an axial direction, that is to say extending along the axis X-X '. The gripping member 4 allows the extraction of the body 2, especially at the beginning of the race and this, according to a simple and pleasant gestures. Indeed, the gripping member 4 is articulated about the axis 5 which extends in a transverse direction, considering the general axis XX 'of the device 1. It is movable angularly about the axis 5 between a rest position, in which it retracts completely in a housing 10 made in the body 2 (Figure 4) and an active position deployed which allows, by angular displacement and arching of the gripping member 4 against the hood 3 , to obtain a relative movement of the cover and the body tending to extract the body of the cover.

The invention essentially relates to the extraction of the body to remove the cover, the drive mechanism 7 will not be described in detail later. However, it will be noted that it comprises an outer casing or sleeve 12, a guide sleeve 13 mounted in the casing 12 and a support cup 14 ensuring the positioning and the retention of the stick by means of ribs (not visible) formed in the bottom of the support cup 14. In a manner known per se, the support cup 14 comprises radial pins (not visible) mounted inside diametrically opposed longitudinal slots 15 formed in the wall constituting the guiding sheath 13. pins are further dimensioned so as to have a radial dimension sufficient to penetrate each, after passing through the slots 15, in a helical groove 16 formed on the inner surface of the casing 12. The base 6 is rotatably connected to the cup 14. Thus, the rotation of the base 6 is accompanied by an axial displacement of the cup 14 with respect to the casing 12 and the sleeve 13 in the direction of an outlet orifice 17 of the sheath 13.

In this respect, one can choose the pitch of the helical groove 16 to obtain a complete output of the stick after a rotation of the base 6 of about 360 °. We will now describe with reference to Figures 5, 6 and 7, the constitution of the cover 3, the base 6 of the cover, and the gripping member 4. Referring first to Figure 5, the Hood 3 has a generally tubular shape. I1 has a closed end 20 and an open opposite end 21 through which the body 2 can be introduced into the cover 3.

In the vicinity of the closed end 20, the wall constituting the cover 3 comprises a number of grooves 22, here four in number, providing guidance and radial retention of the body 2, and in particular of the outer casing 12, after complete insertion of the body 2 into the hood 3.

At its opposite end 21, the cover 3 has an internal end surface 23 generally frustoconical, that is to say a sloped surface in a slope facing outwardly of the hood.

As will be described in detail later, this inclined surface 23 is intended to cooperate with a complementary surface of the gripping member 4 to cause a relative movement of the cover relative to the body during the operation of the member 4. Upstream of the surface 23, the inner peripheral surface of the cover 3 comprises an annular groove 24 for the removable fixing of the body 2 in the cover 3. The cover can be mounted on the body 2 so as to ensure a tight seal of 2. Referring now to Figure 6, the base 6 of the body 2 also has a tubular shape. It is intended to receive the drive mechanism 7, the assembly being inserted, by axial sliding, into the cover 3. The base 6 essentially comprises a peripheral skirt 25 provided with a first closed end 26 delimiting a bottom 27 and an opposite end 28 open.

The bottom 27 comprises, on the side turned towards the inside of the base 6, a tip 29 intended to be connected in rotation with a corresponding end of the cup 14. On the opposite side, the base 6 comprises a relief (FIG. ) on which is articulated the gripping member 4.

As seen in this FIG. 7, the relief 30 comprises a first portion 32 in the shape of a truncated disk which externally delimits a surface 33 forming a receiving seat of the gripping member 4 and a second portion 34 forming a stud on which comes articulate the organ 4.

As will be described in detail later, the gripping member 4 has, in this embodiment, a ring shape. Also, the surface 33 also has a generally annular shape, being interrupted by the stud 34. Similarly, the first portion 32 of the relief 30 has a generally cylindrical or slightly frustoconical peripheral surface 35 and includes a notch 36 which is intended to allow access to the gripping member 4 when pressed against the surface 33. As can be seen, the surface 35 comprises radial pins 37 intended to snap into an annular groove provided in the member 4. Finally, it can be seen in FIGS. 6 and 7 that the outer peripheral surface of the base 6 is again provided with lugs, such as 38, intended to snap into the annular groove 24 of the cover 3.

The second portion 34 of the relief 30 is for example parallelepipedic. It is crossed by a transverse passage 39 for the insertion of the axis 5 (Figure 2). Referring finally to Figure 8, as previously indicated, the gripping member 4 has a generally annular shape and thus constitutes a manually operable pin. As also shown in Figure 2, this pin is in fact an annular sector and has two opposite ends such as 42, respective coaxial holes 43 through which the axis 5 pivots.

The surface 44 of internal revolution of the pin 4 comprises an annular groove 45 which snaps into the radial pins 37 provided on the relief 30. The outer surface 46 of revolution of the pin is generally frustoconical. It has a shape complementary to that of the frustoconical surface 23 of the cover 3 (FIG. 5). The height of the relief 30 of the base 6 corresponds generally to that of the pin 4. Thus, when it rests on the seat 33, in the rest position, the assembly forms a generally flat surface.

In addition, when the body is inserted into the hood, the end edge of the body, including the pin 4, is flush with the free end edge of the hood, the outer peripheral surface of the pin being in abutment against the frustoconical surface corresponding internal 23 of the hood.

As can be seen in FIG. 8, the internal revolution surface 44 of the ring extends, beyond the groove 45, on the side facing the base 6, by a frustoconical surface 50. This frustoconical surface, combined with the notch 36, allows manual gripping of the pin, even when applied against the body. Referring to FIG. 6, it can be seen that the passage 39 in which the axis 5 has become entangled extends substantially in the extension of the peripheral skirt 25 or, in other words, in the extension of the surface internal 51 of the base. In other words, when the body is inserted into the cover 3, the axis of rotation of the pin 4 is offset radially internally relative to the peripheral wall of the cover 3, and in particular of the frustoconical surface 23 on which leans the corresponding frustoconical surface 46 of the pin 4. The axis 5 further extends substantially from the open end edge of the cover 3 so that during the operation of the pin, the latter can come to lean against the hood. Thus, when the pin 4 is moved from its rest position to its active position, while leaning against the frustoconical surface 23 of the cover, the rotational movement of the pin is converted into a translation movement of the body, relative to the hood 3, thanks to the pin support on the hood, at a point offset from the axis 5, which constitutes a pivot for the pin.

In other words, the assembly consisting of the pin rotatably mounted about the axis 5 integral with the body and resting against the end edge of the cover, constitutes a mechanism similar to a cam which allows the pin, by bracing against the hood, to cause a relative movement of the body relative to the hood.

Note that the extent of movement obtained during the rotation of the pin depends on the solid angle formed by the surfaces facing the pin and the hood.

For example, the angle formed by the surface 23 of the cover is between about 10 ° and 80 °, relative to the end edge of the cover. Similarly, the angle formed by the peripheral surface of the pin 4 will for example have a value between about 10 ° and 80 ° relative to the transverse end edge of the pin 4. Given the thickness of the constitutive wall cover 3, and as shown, we will preferably choose an angle of the order of 30 °, which provides a good compromise between manufacturing constraints and ease of handling. As will be described in detail later, to use the device just described, it is simply necessary to manually enter the pin 4 so as to disengage the surface 23 of the base 6, from the position illustrated in Figure 4.

It is then simply necessary to rotate the pin 4 about the axis 5. In doing so, thanks to the support of the pin against the end surface 23 of the hood, the pin forms a lever that exerts a tensile force on the body, tending to disengage the body of the hood axially in a relative sliding movement.

Finally, it is simply necessary to exert a tensile force on the body, either on the pin or on the base 6 now accessible, so as to fully extract the body of the hood. Then, as is known per se, the stick can then be deployed by rotating the base 6 so as to actuate the drive mechanism 7. In the embodiment which has just been described, the device is provided with releasable means for holding the pin 4 in the housing 10 of the body provided in the surfaces opposite the pin and the relief and releasable means for holding the body in the cover provided in the surfaces facing the body and the hood . Alternatively, the means for holding the body in the cover and the means for holding the pin in the form of common snap-fastening means provided at the outer surface of the pin and the inner surface of the pin could alternatively be made. hood look. A second embodiment of a device according to the invention will now be described with reference to FIGS.

In these figures, identical or similar elements to those described above have the same reference numerals. As can be seen, while in the embodiment previously described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 8, the gripping member 4 is constituted by a pin 4, according to this second embodiment, the gripping member 4 is here constituted by a solid ring, namely closed on one side at least. It can then, if necessary, if desired, be used to contain a second product. FIGS. 9 and 10 show the body 2, and in particular the base 6, on which a conventional drive mechanism (not shown) is mounted, the cover 3, which caps the body 2 and the body gripper 4 in the form of a solid ring articulated about a transverse axis 5 with respect to the general axis XX 'of the cover and the body, between a rest position, in which the solid ring 4 is in abutment against the body 2 and an extended active position making it possible to obtain an axial displacement of the body relative to the hood by pressing the solid ring 4 onto the cover 3. Thus, as previously described, the solid ring 4 has an external surface of a generally frustoconical revolution 46 which is intended to be flush against a complementary surface 23 provided in the vicinity of a free end of the cover 3. With reference to FIGS. 10 and 11, the arrangement of the surfaces opposite the solid ring 4 and hood 3 is similar that described above with reference to FIGS. 5 and 8. Likewise, the positioning of the axis of rotation 5 is chosen so as to be shifted radially internally relative to the bearing surface of the solid ring 4 on the wall constituting the cover 3 and to extend back from the open end edge of the cover 3.

Thus, the displacement of the full ring 4 from the rest position to the active position (arrow F1) causes the hood 3 to disengage (arrow F2). However, in this embodiment, the solid ring 4 here comprises, internally, that is to say on the side of its face facing the base 6 of the body 2, a housing 52 intended to receive a product different from that carried by the cup of the transmission mechanism, for example a compacted powder or a perfume. But it will be appreciated that it will not be departing from the scope of the invention when any other product in the form of a solid, or a powder, is placed in the housing 52. Also, in this embodiment, the 6, and in particular its face facing the full ring 4, is devoid of relief, the isolation of the housing 52 being here obtained by the support of the solid ring 4 against the surface 23 of the cover 2, and in particular thanks to their complementary form. In this embodiment, it also recognizes the detent means of the body 2 on the cover 3, in the form of lugs 38 which snap into the groove 24 of the cover.

In this case, there is no provision for the solid ring 4 to snap onto the base 6. However, it would be possible to provide releasable means for holding the solid ring 4 against the body 2, for example by snapping, in particular in the form of pins and a groove provided, on the one hand, in the solid ring 4 and, on the other hand, in the surface facing the base 6. We could then get rid of the use of the snap of the body in the hood. It will be noted that, in the embodiments which have just been described, it is possible to provide biasing means able to urge the gripping member 4 to bear against the body 2, either in an attached form or by using a hinge provided for this purpose.

It should be noted in this connection that the gripping member 4 could also, alternatively, be articulated on the body 2 by means of a hinge in the form of a film molded simultaneously to the body and the body by means of an elastic material capable of providing a spring effect. Thanks to the relatively external peripheral surfaces and internal of the gripping member and the cover 3, and in particular by positioning the axis of rotation, the body is released in a pleasant gesture.

Similarly, after a repositioning of the cover, when manipulating the gripping member so as to reposition it in support against its seat 33, the member 4 is simultaneously supported by its frustoconical surface against the frustoconical surface corresponding hood.

It is found, in use, that the application of the member 4 against the body and against the hood generates a sound that provides a feeling of luxury pleasantly perceived by the user. Finally, it should be noted that the invention is not limited to the embodiments described.

In the various embodiments envisaged, the latching means are in the form of lugs snapping into a complementary groove. But, of course, any other embodiment can be envisaged. In this respect, it is possible to use an annular rib in place of the lugs. Similarly, the lugs and the corresponding grooves can be provided indifferently in one or the other facing surface. Finally, in the various embodiments, the device can be made from any suitable material, such as a thermoplastic material, for example polyoxymethylene (POM) or polyamide. However, the gripping member, when attached, can be made of any other material, for example metal.
