Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for a liquid, and more especially for a liquid of low viscosity, such as nail polish, water-based adhesive, tinctures, etc., which container is provided with an outlet opening, which outlet opening is provided with metering means which serve to allow the product from the container to be applied to and distributed over a desired surface in a metered, desired quantity, which metering means comprise a nozzle-shaped member or small nozzle and distributing means, which nozzle-shaped member is attached, with the aid of attachment means, in or on the outlet opening of the container and which nozzle-shaped member is provided with a hollow chamber, which hollow chamber is in communication with the inside of the tube via the outlet opening of the container, which is also the inlet opening of the hollow chamber, and the distributing means comprise a distributing member and a small brush, which brush comprises a number of hairs and is arranged in the region of the outlet opening of the hollow chamber, and which distributing member is situated in the hollow chamber, and which nozzle-shaped member is provided with a cap or
  • a container of this kind is known', for example, from British patent GB 769,621.
  • a drawback of this known container for a liquid is that when the container is held with the outlet opening downwards the outlet opening is blocked by the small brush which lies enclosed in a chamber in the region of the outlet opening. This makes it impossible, in the position in which the container is held with the outlet opening downv/ards , for liquid still to flow outwards, and certainly not for the liquid to flow outwards in a metered fashion. This would only be possible by shaking the container, but in so doing the contents, if they are a thin liquid, can easily be splashed around, which is extremely undesirable for liquids such as water-based adhesive or nail polish .
  • Containers are also known which comprise a tube and are used for viscous liquids, such as adhesive, etc. Since these liquids are extremely viscous, i.e. are thickly liquid, these liquids can easily be metered out of the tube by pressing on the wall of the tube. Since these liquids are very viscous, the opening can be relatively large.
  • tubes have hitherto proven unsuitable as packaging for liquids, such as aqueous liquids, whose viscosity is low.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a packaging specially for products whose viscosity is low, such as cosmetic products, water-based products, alcohol-based products, etc., and the costs of which for producing the packaging are lower than for the forms of packaging known hitherto, and in which the contents of the packaging, for example a cosmetic product, can be removed from the packaging in desired small amounts and in a very well metered manner before being placed on a brush so as then to spread this quantity over a defined surface using the brush.
  • the object of the invention is achieved using a container by the fact that the container comprises a small sleeve made of soft material, one end of which is closed and the other end of which is open, such as a tube, which open end is provided with the nozzle-shaped member, and the container can contain a product, for example a cosmetic product such as nail polish, lipstick, eyeshadow, or another thin liquid, such as a tincture or other water-based or alcohol- based substances, etc., and by the fact that the outlet opening of the hollow chamber of the nozzle-shaped member is provided with a number of small passages, in such a manner that the distributing member which is situated in the hollow chamber cannot close off the entire outlet opening .
  • a product for example a cosmetic product such as nail polish, lipstick, eyeshadow, or another thin liquid, such as a tincture or other water-based or alcohol- based substances, etc.
  • a product whose viscosity is low such as a water-based product, for example nail polish, water-based adhesive, an alcohol-based product, for example a tincture, etc.
  • a product whose viscosity is low such as a water-based product, for example nail polish, water-based adhesive, an alcohol-based product, for example a tincture, etc.
  • a product from the tube can easily be applied to the body, for example the nails or the face.
  • a packaging of this kind is much less expensive than all known forms of packaging for cosmetic products and moreover is easy to carry and very lightweight.

  • Fig. 2 shows an enlarged cross-section of part of the tube with the metering member on line II-II from Figure 1 ;

  • One end 2 of the tube 1 is closed in a known manner.
  • the other end 3 is provided with metering means 4 which are attached to the open end of the tube 1.
  • the tube 1 with the metering means 4 is closed off by a cap 5.
  • FIG. 2 shows a cross-section of part of the tube 1 on line II-II from Figure 1.
  • Distributing means 4 which in this case comprise a small nozzle 7, are arranged on the outlet opening 6 of the tube 1.
  • the tube 1 comprises a flexible wall 8 made of, for example, a plastic, to which a cylindrical outlet member 9 is attached, which is preferably made from a hard plastic.
  • the outlet opening of the tube 1 is reduced in size with the aid of a small disc-like plate 10 with an opening in it.
  • the nozzle 7 is attached to the tube, for example with the aid of a screw thread, although preferably by adhesive bonding using a two-pack adhesive, so that it is not possible for any liquid to leak out between the tube and the distributing means 4 or nozzle 7.

  • the open end of the tube is provided with a small plate 10 with a small opening 15 in order to close off the inlet opening of the open chamber 11 in such a manner that the brush 12 remains enclosed in the hollow chamber.
  • the open end of the tube may also be selected to be so small that the open end or outlet opening 6 of the tube 1 is smaller than the cross-section of the small plastic holder 13 of the brush 12.
  • a cap 5 can be clamped onto the nozzle 7 as usual with the aid of clamping means 16.
  • the diameter of the small plastic holder 13 is preferably only slightly less than the diameter of the hollow chamber 11, so that the liquid forming the contents of the tube can be pressed past the small plastic holder.
  • a number of small passages 18, which are illustrated more clearly in Figure 3, are arranged in the region of the outlet opening 17.
  • Figure 3 shows a cross-section on line III-III from Figure 2 of the outlet opening 17 of the tube according to the invention.
  • Figure 4 corresponds to the cross-section as illustrated in Figure 2, but without the brush and cap.
  • small passages 18 are arranged in the region of the outlet opening 17 of the open chamber 9, with the result that when the small holder 13 of the brush (in this figure shown by dashed lines) closes off the outlet opening 17 of the chamber 9 precisely the desired quantity of nail polish can be pressed outwards from the tube via the small passages.
  • the size and number of small passages used determines the rate at which the liquid can be pressed out of the tube, into the brush, under pressure exerted by the fingers.
  • the number of small passages and the size of the cross-section of the small passages depend on the viscosity of the liquid, for example nail polish, which is to be packaged in the tube.
  • FIG. 5 shows a cross-section of another possible embodiment of the tube 1, which is likewise provided with distributing means 4 according to the invention.
  • Distributing means 4 are attached to the open end 6 of the tube 1, which distributing means comprise a nozzle 7, in which there is a hollow chamber 11, in which hollow chamber 11 a small ball 19 can move between a first limit position and a second limit position.
  • the ball 19 closes off the open end 6 of the tube 1, which open end corresponds to the inlet opening of the hollow chamber 11.
  • it closes off the outlet opening 17 of the hollow chamber 11.
  • a number of hairs 14, which together with the nozzle 7 form a small brush 12, are attached in and around the outlet opening 17 of the nozzle 7.
  • the nozzle 7 is here closed off by a cap 5 which is attached to the nozzle with the aid of clamping means 16.
  • Figure 6 shows a cross-section of the tube as illustrated in Figure 5.
  • small passages 18 are arranged in the region of the outlet ope- ning 10 of the open chamber 9 in the nozzle 7, with the result that when the ball 19 closes off the outlet opening 10 of the chamber 9, sufficient nail polish can nevertheless be pressed out from the tube.
  • the size and number of small passages used depends on the viscosity of the nail polish which is provided in the tube.
