Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cosmetic case comprising a tubular casing containing a stick of cosmetic material and a support member which can move in the casing to enable the cosmetic material to be advanced to renew a front portion of the stick extending beyond the casing as it becomes worn.
  • a stick of cosmetic is attached only by its base to a support mounted for advance and retraction into a tubular case.
  • the stick is therefore not supported laterally and therefore easily breaks at its base in the immediate vicinity of the support, the risk of this occurring being greatest when the stick is still long.
  • the stick of cosmetic cannot be cast with an ogival or tapering end due to the fact that the form of the case places certain restrictions on the techniques which can be used in the casting of the cosmetic material, since the latter can be cast into the casing only through the top of the case in which the piston and screw have already been mounted.
  • a cosmetic case comprising a first case member, a tubular casing open at both ends, a stick of cosmetic material fitting closely within the casing and supported over the major part of its length by the casing, an elongate slide member engaging one end of said stick within the casing, over a major part of the surface of said end of the stick, and extending through one end of said casing, the slide member, said tubular casing and said first case member being mounted with respect to each other for relative longitudinal movement whereby the slide member can be advanced with respect to said casing to push said stick, via said one end of the stick, along the casing to push the other end of the stick further out of the casing, and wherein retraction of the slide member results in separation of the latter from the stick without corresponding retraction of the stick in the casing, the tubular casing being detachably retained with respect to the other components whereby, when the stick of cosmetic material has been exhausted, the casing can be detached and replaced by a similar
  • Abutment means on the slide member and the casing prevent complete withdrawal of the slide member from the casing under a separating force below a predetermined value, and further abutment means on the first case member and the tubular casing prevent the casing from advancing with respect to the first case member beyond a predetermined position under the force exerted by the slide member on the casing through the stick of cosmetic material.
  • the tubular casing can be advanced and retracted with respect to the first case member without altering the position of the stick of cosmetic material with respect to the tubular casing, and by advancing the slide member until the further abutment means engage and subsequently advance the slide member further, the stick of cosmetic material can be advanced with respect to the tubular casing.
  • FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an embodiment of cosmetic case according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrate a phase of the manufacture of the case illustrated in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 2 representing the manufacture of the cosmetic-filled casing and
  • FIG. 3 representing the case before the casing has been put in place;
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show to an enlarged scale details of the case illustrated in FIG. 7;
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 are views of the case illustrated in FIG. 1 in the position of use, FIG. 6 showing a brand new stick of cosmetic with its maximum length, and FIG. 7 showing the stick reduced to its minimum length;
  • FIG. 8 illustrates separately the body of the case illustrated in FIG. 1, and
  • FIG. 9 is a partial view of a variant of such body.
  • the case illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a tubular casing 50 supporting a stick S1 of cosmetic material and longitudinally (i.e., axially) slidable in a case part 53.
  • the casing 50 is connected to slide member 52 which is also longitudinally slidable in case part 53.
  • the case part 53 comprises a base portion 54 forming the base of the case and an upper portion 55.
  • the member 53 is substantially tubular and has a cylindrical bore 53a forming a guide for the casing 50 and slide 52.
  • the upper portion 55 is divided into two halves 55a, 55b (FIG. 8) by two diametrically opposite longitudinal slots 56.
  • the slots 56 each comprise a wider upper portion 64 and a narrower lower portion 57 through which two diametrically opposite radially extending pins 58 of the slide 52 extend, these pins engaging in two helical grooves 59 formed internally in a bush 60 rotatably mounted on the member 53.
  • the bush 60 has fixed thereto a tubular sheath 61 which can thus also rotate V 3 in relation to the member 53. Rotation of the sheath 61 and bush 60 in relation to the member 53 thus produces a longitudinal displacement of the slide 52 between bottom and top end positions shown respectively in FIGS. 1 and 7.
  • the stick of cosmetic material is formed by casting in the casing 50.
  • the casing 50 with a detachable hood 62 fitted to the end which is uppermost in FIG. 1 is inverted and the cosmetic material is cast in a liquid or pasty condition into the mould thus formed, through an opening 63 in the rear end of the casing.
  • a washer 64 for instance a plastics washer, is thereafter placed on the exposed end of the cosmetic stick through the opening 63.
  • the boss 50a can be forced past the retaining lugs 65 disposed at the inlet to the slot as the result of a momentary resilient deformation of the front portion of the member 53, whose two halves 55a, 55b are moved apart during the introduction of the boss 50a between the inclined flanks on camming surfaces 66 of the lugs 65 (FIG. 8). Thereafter the lugs 65 spring together again and downwardly facing abutment faces thereon, extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the slots prevent the boss 50a from passing out of the slot by abutting the boss 50a. The casing 50 is then pushed down until a head 67 disposed at the upper end of a longitudinal rod part 68 of the slide 52 abuts the lower end of the casing 50.
  • the head 67 comprises an upper conical portion 69 which is readily received in the opening 63 in the slide, and a rounded peripheral bead 70 of external diameter D slightly greater than the diameter d of the opening 63.
  • the head 67 is divided into four sectors by two longitudinal, mutually perpendicular slots 71 (FIG. 5) so that when a rather strong thrust is exerted on the hood 62 capping the casing 50, the four sectors of the head move together, allowing it to pass through the opening 63.
  • the edge of the opening axis is defined by an inwardly directed annular bead 72 at the end of the casing 50 so that the opening 63 has a smaller diameter than the interior of the casing 50.
  • the four sectors of the resiliently deformed head spring back into their original positions, this time behind the bead 72 so that the head 67 is held captive in the casing 50, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the lateral boss 50a of the casing 50 arrives at the bottom end of the wide portion 64 of the slot and limits further downward movement of the casing 50.
  • the head 70 can pass the bead 77 as the result of the momentary resilient contraction of the head 67, which resumes its original shape as soon as it has passed on the other side of the rib 72.
  • the hood 62 has a front extension 62a extending substantially further forward than the front end 51b of the cavity used for moulding the stick 51.
  • the circular edge 62b of this extension offers a satisfactory support surface to exert on the casing, capped with the hood, the pressure needed for bringing it into position on the head 67, all the more so since the extension 62a, as shown in FIG. 1, remains completely accessible as it emerges from the sheath.
  • the moulding cavity of the hood 62 can also be non-circular or asymmetric, in which case interlocking between the hood and the casing is performed using a longitudinal key preventing the relative rotation of such elements.
  • the effect of a rotation in one direction of the sheath 61 in relation to the member 53 results in making the slide 52 rise so that its head 67, capped by the disc 64, urges the casing with the stick 51 upwards.
  • a position is reached when the boss 50a abuts the lugs 65, as shown in FIG. 6.
  • the article can be used without any risk of breakage of the cosmetic stick 51 which is closely supported by the wall of the casing 50 over the major part of its length.
  • the casing 50 and cosmetic stick 51 can be retracted within the element 53, into the retracted position shown in FIG. 1 by rotating the sheath 61 in the opposite direction. In view of the small amount of resistance encountered, the head 67 is not then disengaged from the casing 50.
  • FIG. 7 shows the slide 52 almost in the uppermost position which it can take up in normal use, corresponding to the position where the stick 51 is almost used up.
  • a rotation of the sheath in the opposite direction still enables the casing 50 and stick 51 to be retracted into the member 53, such rearward movement taking place simply after inoperative travel depending on the degree of wear of the stick, until the head 70 of the head 67 abuts the rib 72 of the slide 50.
  • the bead 70 and the rib 72 therefore form coupling means which on the one hand enable the casing 50 coupled to the slide 52 to be retracted during the retraction of the slide and on the other hand enable the cosmetic stick 51 to be advanced inside the casing 50 as a result of an advance of the slide 52, while the casing 50 abuts the retaining lug 65 and the head 67 forms a pusher bearing via washer 64 against the bottom end of the cosmetic stick 51.
  • the undersides of lugs 73 of the member 53 corresponding to the lugs 65 in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 8, and a boss 74 of the casing are also given shapes comprising inclined faces 75, 76
  • the head 67 As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the head 67, capped by the washer 64, forms a pusher solely allowing the advance of the cosmetic stick 51 in the casing 50 and presenting to the cosmetic material a support surface corresponding to the major part of the full surface of the cross-section of the casing.
  • the casing which can be filled via its open rear end, as described hereinbefore, is detachably fixed to the base part of the cosmetic case, so that the casing can be replaced when the cosmetic stick has been used up.
  • a cosmetic case comprising 1. a first case member,
  • the slide member being mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in the first case member and b. the tubular casing being mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in the first case member for relative longitudinal movement of the casing and V the slide member whereby the slide member can be advanced with respect to the casing to push the stick along the casing and thereby to push the other end of the stick out of the casing, and retraction of the slide member results in separation of the slide member from the stick without corresponding retraction of the stick in the casing,
  • the casing can be detached and replaced by a similar casing containing a fresh stick of cosmetic material
  • said slide member includes a resiliently deformable head within said tubular casing and said abutment means on the slide member are on said head and said tubular casing has an internal rib adjacent the end of the tubular casing through which the slide member passes, said rib forming the cooperating abutment means on the tubular casing.
