Definitions

  • This invention relates to holders for housing sticks of pasty materials such as rouges, pomades, cosmetics, pharmaceutical or veterinary products and the like, of the type comprising two co-axial sleeves which can turn one relatively to the other and a stick support or godet for supporting a stick which is movable in the inner sleeve and which comprises a lug extending through a slot in the inner sleeve and also engaged in a slot in the outer sleeve, one of these two slots being longitudinal and the other helicoidal, the whole being closed by a removable cover.
  • At least one of the slots of the inner sleeve opens at one of its ends so that one can put the stick support in position in this sleeve and slightly narrow said end of the inner sleeve to fit on to it the outer sleeve. Because of this, in a batch of such sleeves at random, it happens that certain of them catch together in pairs, top-to-bottom, by means of said slots, which interferes with the process of automatically feeding the components in the steps of assembly.
  • One of the objects of the invention is, therefore, to give to said inner sleeves a structure suitable for preventing this unwanted coupling together of the components.
  • the end of the slot in the inner sleeve which is ultimately destined to be open is temporarily closed by at least one transverse tongue forming a temporary obstacle, the tongue being removed under the effect of the force exerted by the lugs of the stick support when the latter is being mounted in the sleeve.
  • the present invention consists in a holder for a stick.
  • the present invention consists in a method of making a holder.
  • the tongue is at a distance from the associated end of the slot which it closes substantially equal to the diameter of the lug of the stick support. Thanks to this measure the lug is readily guided into the end of the slot when it comes into contact with the tongue so that it can push against this latter without di'iculty.
  • the aforementioned obstacle is constituted by a lug or tongue extending part way from one of the sides of the slot in the direction of the other side.
  • the said temporary ice obstacle is constituted by a tongue in the form of a frangible strip joining the two sides of the slot.
  • the other end of the outer sleeve is reduced in the same manner, so that the two ends of the sleeve are identical and that one can in consequence assemble this sleeve either end rst (it mattering not which) onto the inner sleeve.
  • each reduced end of the outer sleeve is provided with slits which confer greater exibility.
  • the stick support for a stick is given a shape which is symmetrical in relation to a transverse plane perpendicular to the middle of its length so that one can assemble said stick support in one sense or the other, it mattering not which.
  • FIG. l represents, in longitudinal section, the complete assembled holder.
  • FIG. 2 shows in elevation the inner sleeve alone.
  • FIG. 3 is a transverse section of the inner sleeve along the line III III of FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 4 represents in longitudinal section, to a larger scale, the outer sleeve alone, and
  • FIGS. 5 to 9 also show in elevation various forms of tongues for temporarily closing the end of the slot in the inner sleeve.
  • the holder for sticks of pasty material such as rouges, pomades, cosmetics, pharmaceutical or veterinary materials or the like, shown in FIG. l, comprises in a conventional manner a stick support or godet 1 which carries the stick of pasty material 2 which is mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in an inner sleeve 3.
  • the stick support 1 has projecting from its outer cylindrical surface two diametrically oppossed cylindrical lugs, like shown at S, which can slide into two longitudinal slots 7, 8 respectively, formed in the cylindrical Wall of the sleeve 3.
  • an outer sleeve 11 can turn. It is retained axially by two shoulders 12 and 13 on the inner sleeve.
  • two diametrically opposed helicoidal slots 15, 16 are formed in the inner face of the cylindrical wall of the outer sleeve 11 in which are engaged the ends of the lugs such as 5 of the sliding stick support 1.
  • This tongue 2S is disposed at a certain distance from the end of the slot, so that the lug 5 can already fully engage said slot before coming into contact with the breakable tongue 25, in a manner that the assembly can be effected in good circumstances.
  • one end of the tongue is, furtherfore, thinner than the other end as can be clearly seen in FIG. 2, this facilitating breakage of said tongue due to the presence of one end preferential for the first break of the weaker side.
  • the two ends of the tongue 25A are reduced and form two breakage points level with the sides of the slot 8, as indicated by the two short broken lines.
  • the obstacle for temporary closure of the slot 8 is constituted by a tongue or lug 26 which extends from one of the sides of the slot in the direction of the other side which it almost touches.
  • FIG. 7 shows a modification which the lug 27 extends from the other side of the slot, while, in the embodiment of FIG. 8, two separate lugs 26A and 27A extend, respectively, each from one of the two sides of the slot in the direction of the other side so as to meet to form the temporary obstacle in question.
  • the lugs or tongues as a bar breakable at its middle as shown for example in FIG. 9 where the bar after breakage at its middle gives riSe to tWo barbs 26A, 27A.
  • the end of the outer sleeve 11 which is disposed alongside the operating knob 28 formed on the inner sleeve 3 is, in a known manner reduced, as shown at 31 in FIG. 4, so as to have a certain resilience and bear resiliently against a corresponding bearing surface 35 (FIG. 2) on the knob 28.
  • the two ends of the outer sleeve 11 have been given exactly the same shape, this allowing said sleeve to be assembled on to the inner sleeve 3 in one sense or the other it not mattering which.
  • the other end of the outer sleeve 11 then presents, as shown in FIG. 4, a reduced part 31A which is identical with the reduced part 31.
  • the inner cylindrical surface of the stick support present two annular ribs 36, 37 for retaining the stick of pasty material and its cylindrical outer surface has two terminal grooves 38, 39 in to one of which fits a shaped cap 41 forming a sheath which comes off before the stick is used.
  • the base of the button 28 has an axial opening enabling a stick to be cast inside the holder in the mould constituted by the cap 41 and the stick support 1.
  • a holder for a stick of pasty material said holder comprising coaxial cylindrical inner and outer sleeves rotatable with respect to each other, a support member for supporting the stick, said support member being movable axially within the inner sleeve and having a lug extending through a slot defined by said inner sleeve and into a slot defined by said outer sleeve, one of said slots being longitudinal and the other being helicoidal, the slot in said inner sleeve extending to, and opening at one end of said inner sleeve, the inner sleeve prior to assembly having a slot guard means comprising deformable tongue means intermediate the ends of the slot, the said slot being of substantially the same width on both sides of said tongue means to non-deformably receive said lug, said tongue means being closely adjacent said one end of said slot, and projecting across said slot at least to such an extent as to prevent an edge portion of a like inner sleeve from entering said slot through said one end thereof, said deformable
  • a holder according to claim 1 in which the deformable tongue means comprises two members, one extending from each of the two sides of the slot toward each other.
  • An elongate cylindrical inner sleeve for a holder of a stick of pasty material of the kind comprising coaxial cylindrical inner and outer sleeves which are rotatable relatively to each other and a support member for supporting the stick, said support member being movable axially within the inner sleeve and having a lug extending through a slot in said inner sleeve and into a slot in said outer sleeve, one of said slots being longitudinal and the other of said ⁇ slots being helicoidal, the slot in said inner sleeve being clear-through and extending to the very end of one of the ends of said inner sleeve, and a yieldable tongue means connected to said inner sleeve and guardingly projecting across said inner sleeve slot adjacent said one end of said inner sleeve to resist passage of said lug from said one end into said inner sleeve slot, said yieldable tongue means defining an opening at said one end less than that which will permit self-ass
  • a holder according to claim 3 in which the outer sleeve is symmetrical in relation to a transverse median plane, its ends being of reduced thickness such that either of the reduced ends can co-operate with an adjacent friction surface fast With the inner sleeve.
  • a holder according to claim 3 in which the support member is symmetrical in relation to a transverse median plane.
  • a holder according to claim 3 in which the yieldable tongue means is disposed a distance from said one end of said sleeve substantially equal to the diameter oli the lng on the support member, the lug on the support member being of circular shape.
  • a holder for a stick of pasty material adapted to be covered when not in use of the kind comprising two elongate coaxial sleeves which can be rotated one relatively to the other and a support member for supporting the stick, the support being axially movable in the inner sleeve and having a lug extending through a slot in the inner sleeve and entering a slot in the outer sleeve, one of the slots being longitudinal and the other helicoidal, and in which said inner sleeve slot is substantially closed adjacent one end by a guard member connected to both sides of said slot, the free end of said guard member being spaced no farther from the side of the slot towards which it projects than a distance which will prevent self-assembly with a similarly guarded slot in another slotted inner sleeve of the same size and shape, the steps comprising seating the support member on said inner sleeve with said lug overlying the sleeve slot, and pushing said support member downwardly
