Definitions

  • the present finding refers to a container of single-dose cosmetic products.
  • Single-dose cosmetic products are widely used on the market.
  • small single-dose capsules are known that are made of plastic material and sold by Elizabeth Arden with the name 'Ceramide Capsules Daily Teen Restoring Serum'.
  • the cosmetic product appears as a container, substantially a jar, in which a plurality of small loose capsules are housed, bunched together inside the vessel.
  • a user When a user wishes to use the cosmetic product, he opens the cover of the vessel and draws a small plastic capsule.
  • the capsule provides for a head. By twisting the head, the user breaks the neck of the capsule, which is thus opened. A pressure on the convex body of the capsule causes the ejection of the product which can thus be used.
  • the known capsules have numerous disadvantages. Indeed, the use of the capsule is quite inconvenient and it is easy to waste product or dirty one's hands during the opening, closing or even during use.
  • the application WO 03092784A1 illustrates an applicator for the application of a spreadable composition for the skin comprising an element for receiving and carrying a measured dose of the composition and a grip portion for enabling the user to grip and manipulate the applicator, in which the grip portion and the reception element are arranged in a manner such that a user who holds the applicator by means of the grip portion is protected from undesired contact with the composition carried by the reception means.
  • a plurality of applicators are housed in a container, the user extracts one applicator at a time from the container, then by using the grip portion of the applicator he uses it; the container which houses the applicators does not provide for a seat for the housing of a single applicator when it must be used.
  • the liquid at its interior must be used in a single application. Indeed, given the configuration of the capsule, it cannot remain autonomously 'upright'.
  • Object of the present finding is to obtain a container of single-dose cosmetic products which is improved with respect to the prior art.
  • object of the present invention is to provide a container for single-dose cosmetic products that facilitates the easy, convenient use of the cosmetic product.
  • It comprises an external vessel C formed by a hollow body 2 (in jar form in the example) and a closure element 3 adapted to isolate an internal cavity thereof.
  • the closure element is screwed (on a thread 15) to a neck 4 of the hollow body.
  • the hollow body in proximity of the neck, has a seat where a flange 6 is abutted of an internal container 7, preferably made of a single piece of plastic material.
  • the internal container houses a plurality of mutually-stacked single-dose containers 8.
  • Each single-dose container 8 substantially has the form of a discoid bottom and is formed via plastic material molding in a single piece - though of course it is not required that the single-dose container be of discoid form, as in this case, and it is not necessary that it be formed of a single piece. It can in fact assume any form according to requirements, and can of course be made of one or more pieces; it contains a cosmetic product 9.
  • the cosmetic product can for example be a cream, a make-up product, a powder or any other product housable in the single-dose container.
  • the single-dose container is sealed by means of a film 10 glued to a surface thereof. The film can for example be a considerable multilayer and multi-material film. Of course, it is also possible to provide for a cover sealed with the container, or any other type of closure, preferably adapted to seal the single-dose container.
  • a certain quantity of cosmetic product is housed in each single-dose container.
  • 'single-dose' it must be intended a lower dose than that usually contained in conventional cosmetics bottles; hence the quantity of the contents of the 'single-dose' container can be such to be applied also in one or more applications at the discretion of the final consumer.
  • the cosmetic product is a cream
  • the dose will be sufficient for the applications of an entire day.
  • the external vessel C has, at an external portion of its walls (an upper portion in the represented example), a housing 11 adapted to constrain, in a use position, a single single-dose container.
  • a user has arranged a single-dose container 8A in the housing 11 of the external vessel.
  • the housing provides for means 12 for retaining the single-dose portion in the housing itself; such retention means are formed for example by an annular projection 12A which is extended from the closure element 3 of the hollow body 2.
  • the annular projection 12 laterally constrains the single-dose container 8A which, by virtue of its lower face, is positioned at the perimeter of the same. In such a manner, the single-dose container is constrained via fitting witch the container.
  • the user When it is necessary to use the cosmetic product, the user removes the film 10 from the single-dose container, he positions it in the housing 11 and uses the cosmetic product that he wishes, without dirtying and without wasting product.
  • the user can decide to close a cover 13 hinged to the closure element 3, in a manner so as to reuse the product contained in the single-dose container 8A.
  • closure element 3 It is also possible to separate (in this case by unthreading it) the closure element 3 from the hollow body 2, and use the closure element and the cover as a travel container, e.g. for using the cosmetic product during a brief vacation.
  • the presence of the intermediate container is optional, given that the single-dose containers can also be positioned directly in the cavity of the body 2.
  • housing 11 can be connected, directly or indirectly, to one or more portions of the external surface of the hollow body 2 of the container C, rather than to the closure element 3.
  • the housing 11 is obtained on the bottom of the container C.
  • an annular projection 12 is provided, adapted to retain single-dose portion 8A, along with a cover 13, which can be hinged to the bottom of the container C (as represented in fig. 6 ), or screwed thereto.
  • the housing 11 is arranged at an external portion of the hollow body 2, for example a flat side wall of the hollow body 2.
  • the annular projection 12 is directly obtained on the side wall of the hollow body 2. It is preferable to provide for a cover with shape corresponding to the rest of the external wall of the hollow body 2. If the hollow body 2 has a cylindrical external wall, it is preferable to provide for a curved cover (not shown) in a manner such that when it is closed, the cylindrical form of the external wall of the container C is preserved.
  • the vessel according to the invention could also provide for a plurality of housings for the single-dose portions, e.g. a housing like that pursuant to figures 1-4 and a housing of the type represented in figures 6 and/or 7.
  • Figure 8 shows a container 1 in section, which comprises an external vessel C formed by a hollow body 2 (with elongated form in the example) and a closure element 3 adapted to isolate an internal cavity thereof.
  • the closure element is screwed (on a thread 15) or snap-engaged on a neck 4 of the hollow body by means of a first annular portion 3A thereof, to which a second portion 3B is hinged which is engaged on the first.
  • the hollow body 2 houses a plurality of single-dose containers 80 arranged in a loose manner (or in an ordered manner) at its interior.
  • Each single-dose container 80 is formed via molding of soft plastic material in a single piece, and contains a cosmetic product 9.
  • Each single-dose container 80 has a conformation similar to a capsule, clearly visible in figure 9 .
  • it comprises a deformable portion 80A that contains the fluid 81; from such portion, a conduit 80B is extended that is sealed on the top.
  • the conduit serves for supplying the fluid contained in the single-dose container upon separation of a terminal portion 80C of the conduit. The rupture is facilitated by preferential breakage lines 80D.
  • the single-dose container can have a form different from that just described and it can be made of any material. It is also possible that the container be made of a substantially rigid material provided with a soft membrane or with a deformable part, in order to allow squeezing the contents through the neck. Thus, in the case of an incomplete use of the contents, the terminal part 80C can be reused for closing the container.
  • the fluid product can for example be a cream, an anti-wrinkle fluid, a cosmetic oil or another product housable in the single-dose capsule container.
  • each single-dose container a certain quantity of cosmetic product 81 is housed.
  • a certain quantity of cosmetic product 81 is housed.
  • the quantity of the contents of the 'single-dose' container can be such that the product can also be applied in multiple applications.
  • the external vessel C has a housing 11 adapted to house and constrain, in a use position, a single single-dose container.
  • the housing is formed by a concave portion of the closure 3, and specifically of the second part 3B thereof.
  • the concave portion has a configuration corresponding to part of the convex portion of the capsule.
  • a channel 25 is present that is adapted to receive the projection 80B of the capsule, from which the product is supplied.
  • the concave portion (and hence the housing) is positioned in a manner such to allow an end portion of said capsule 80B to project towards the exterior of the closure or external vessel, in a manner such that the supplied product does not come into contact with any part of the external vessel or cover.
  • the cover 13 is provided with a protuberance 28 useful for squeezing the capsule.
  • a user has arranged a single-dose container 80 in the housing 11 of the external vessel.
  • the user When it is necessary to use the cosmetic product, the user, after having previously opened the capsule by breaking the end portion 80C thereof, closes or lowers the cover 13.
  • the protuberance 28 squeezes the capsule that supplies the product in a convenient, clean manner.
  • Figure 12 illustrates, for example, a variant of the container of figure 9 ; in such variant, the closure 3 is provided on the bottom of the container C, while the housing 11 is arranged on the upper part of the container C.
  • the closure 3 be maintained on the upper part of the hollow body 2, and that the housing 11 is arranged on the bottom of the hollow body 2. It is also possible to provide that the housing 11 be obtained in the side wall of the hollow body 11.
  • FIGS 13, 14, 15 and 16 show an alternative embodiment of the invention.
  • the cover 13 is not provided with a protuberance, but rather with a concave part 30 that encloses the swollen body of the capsule.
  • the top of the concave part 30 is open (opening 31) in a manner so as to allow a user to directly access the capsule 80, by pressing it.
  • this variant can be applied both when the housing 11 is obtained in the closure 3, and when the housing 11 is obtained directly in the hollow body 2.
  • the variant illustrated in figure 12 is particularly suitable, as shown in figure 16 .
  • the capsule is perfectly constrained to the external body.
