Definitions
- PRODUCT SUCH AS A COSMETIC PRODUCT OR A PERFUME "
- the subject of the invention is a device for storing and distributing a liquid or more or less viscous product, such as a perfume or a cream, which can be advantageously distributed in the form of a "spray” (jet in fine droplets) and in particular in mixture with another product.
- a liquid or more or less viscous product such as a perfume or a cream
- the invention relates to a device of the distribution pump type.
- the subject of the invention is a device which comprises a fixed part and a movable part with respect to the fixed part in approaching or spacing along an axis of movement, this device being characterized in that:
- - the fixed part includes:
- the moving part includes:. an interior passage which, on one side, leads to a product exit zone towards the outside and, on the other hand, communicates with the cavity for the distribution of said product, the cavity and / or the passage defining a volume storage of this product, and. a workable insulation membrane, interposed between the appendage facing it and said outlet zone, and arranged across said passage which it closes until the appendage opens this membrane when the two parts are brought together and that, under the pressure produced in the cavity and / or the passage by the bringing together of the parts, the main product is evacuated towards the outside by the exit zone.
- the user will have a device of a construction particularly easy to handle and reliable, which does not have to be fixed on an annex container containing the product and which responds by elsewhere the requirements of simple manufacturing, with a reduced number of elements, for a low cost price.
- the storage volume will be kept hermetically sealed by at least the insulation membrane until the opening thereof by the 'appendix.
- This membrane will advantageously be a perforable sealing film for the first use of the product.
- the aforementioned passage extends, at least towards its end communicating with the cavity, substantially along the axis of movement and has a section at this point. and / or a volume close to that and / or that of the appendix so that, when the parts are brought together, the appendix moves in the passage forming a piston.
- the appendage will include longitudinal fins.
- the moving part defines the storage volume of the main product
- the cavity of the fixed part defines a secondary volume for storing a secondary product for its distribution in mixture with the main product, said membrane insulation then being interposed between the two volumes.
- This particularly simple construction makes it possible to dispense a mixture of two products (for example main product / pre-compressed gas, which is particularly sought after to ensure good vaporization of the main product).
- FIG. 1 shows schematically in section median transverse device according to the invention
- FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the device of Figure 1;
- FIGS. 5, 6 and 7 show, in an enlarged and partial view, three successive stages in the use of a first alternative embodiment of the device of FIG. 1,
- FIG. 10 is an enlarged perspective view of a cartridge of the device of Figure 1.
- the device constitutes a sample offered to the consumer or a "tester” offered at the point of sale to test the product.
- the product distributed (called “main product”) can be a liquid or a more or less pasty or viscous substance (for example a perfume, a milk, a gel or even a cream).
- the device illustrated in the figures is used for the distribution of the main product (liquid) in mixture with a "secondary product", in particular a gas.
- the device 1 is shown as a whole, assembled. It has a relatively flat overall shape, here substantially circular, and dimensions such that it can be easily held and handled with one hand. It comprises a first fixed part or base 4, placed on the plane 2, to which is linked a second movable part 6 along an axis of movement 8.
- the part 4 in this case made in one piece (molded plastic, for example polyethylene), has a bottom 10 which is advantageously curved with a concavity facing the plane 2, to allow housing easy with a user's finger (shown in dotted lines 5) under the bottom.
- a first wall 12 rises from the bottom, here in its central part and delimits a cavity 14 open in the upper part.
- This wall 12 is here in the form of a tube which comprises towards its free end an annular shoulder 16 facing the cavity for retaining a piston detailed below.
- An appendage 18 rises from the bottom, substantially parallel to the axis 8, being disposed inside the cavity 14. It advantageously takes the form of a cone or of a tapered or pointed rod towards its upper end.
- This appendage preferably comprises fins 20 longitudinal or oriented substantially along the axis 8 which promote the mixing of the products and ensure their guidance substantially axially.
- the base 4 also includes a peripheral ring 22 erected from the bottom to guide the moving part 6 in movement.
- the part 6 in this case comprises a main body or pusher 24, here formed in one piece from a molded plastic, which carries a cartridge 28.
- the body 24 has a circular upper portion whose surface is advantageously corrugated to form recessed recesses 26a and 26b for the fingers (shown in dotted lines 5) of the user.
- This upper portion has an orifice 38 for the outlet of the product and ends with a falling edge 34 which slides along the crown 22 during the relative movement of the parts 4 and 6.
- This edge is extended by a tamper-evident ring 30 to which it is connected by a zone of least resistance 32, easily tearable by the user.
- the upper portion also includes a falling extension 36, formed opposite the tube 12 and which delimits a cavity for housing the cartridge 28.
- This cavity communicates with the orifice 38, at the connection end of the extension with the upper portion and is open at the opposite end 36a.
- the extension On the side of its free end 36a, the extension constitutes a hollow piston which extends substantially along the axis of the tube 12 (in this case the axis 8) and which is capable of sliding in leaktight manner inside the cavity 14.
- the piston has a shoulder 40, turned outwards, which cooperates with the retaining shoulder 16 of the wall 12. Once engaged in the cavity 14 and even when it is stationary, the piston permanently compresses the "secondary" fluid (gas such as air) contained in this cavity.
- the piston is immobilized in a high position in the cavity 14, until the first application of the product, thanks to the extractable ring 30 which is in abutment against the bottom 10 of the part 4 and thus prevents any approach of the parts 4 and 6. All means for holding the piston in the high position, equivalent to the ring 30, would also be suitable.
- the cylindrical reservoir 28 which extends substantially along the axis 8 has a recessed lower part 37 which here delimits a product chamber 42 and, on its external face, at least one groove or groove communicating with the recess 37, in l '' two grooves 43a and 43b which meet at their upper end.
- This passage comprises the chamber 42 and, in this case, at least two channels 44a and 44b for discharging the mixed products to the outside.
- Each channel which communicates, on one side, with the chamber 42 and, on the other side, with the orifice 38 is defined by one of the grooves and the inner face of the wall of the extension.
- these channels have a shape and a section such that they allow the vaporization of the products.
- they have a section much smaller than that of the recess 37 and extend substantially parallel from the chamber 42 to end, each, by a bent portion 45a, 45b which opens onto the orifice 38.
- Au at their elbow, each channel has a turbulence zone 46a, 46b.
- the internal passage is filled with the main product and forms a storage volume which is advantageously closed until the first use, to avoid in particular any contamination or deterioration of the product, this communicating passage, for the distribution of the main product and the gas, with the cavity 14.
- the storage volume is closed by sealing membranes 48 and 50 which are here in the form of a continuous film or a film (for example aluminum and / or polyethylene).
- the first insulation membrane 48 suitable for being irreversibly opened by the appendix, is welded or fixed in any other equivalent manner to the base of the cartridge to hermetically seal the chamber 42.
- This membrane blocks the passage interior until the first use of the product, extending substantially perpendicular to the axis 8. It is interposed between the storage volume of the main product and the secondary storage volume of the gas that constitutes the cavity 14 and thus separates the main product from the gas.
- This membrane 48 is arranged opposite the appendage while being spaced apart when the piston is in its high position. It is interposed between the appendix and the orifice 38 while the second membrane 50 covers and closes the orifice 38.
- the appendage has a length sufficient to move inside the cavity of the extension and of the recess 37, when the parts 4 and 6 are brought together, and also has a slightly smaller section and / or volume. (e) to that and / or that of the empty space 37 and of the lower end of the housing cavity to be introduced therein by forming a second piston.
- the device will include means authorizing the distribution of the dose of the main product in several installments, such as stops 52 (only shown in FIGS. 3 and 4) formed on the internal wall of the cavity 14 for sliding the piston in stages, the passage of an operating stop by exerting a greater force on the pusher 24.
- stops 52 (only shown in FIGS. 3 and 4) formed on the internal wall of the cavity 14 for sliding the piston in stages, the passage of an operating stop by exerting a greater force on the pusher 24.
- the device operates without a spring for priming the pump.
- FIGS. 1 to 4 variants of the device of the invention are shown. They are distinguished from the device of FIGS. 1 to 4 essentially in that, until the first use, the main product is no longer stored in the evacuation channels but only in the product chamber 42 ′, the second membrane n 'being more arranged on the orifice 38 but inside the extension being interposed between the channels and the product chamber. The latter is no longer formed by the recess 37 but is located under the cartridge 28, inside the hollow piston.
- Chamber 42 is delimited laterally either by the inner face of the tubular wall of the extension ( Figures 5 to 8) or by the wall of a tubular reservoir 54 locked inside the piston
- This chamber is hermetically closed at its lower end by the first membrane 48 'and at its upper end by the second membrane 50'.
- the membrane 50 ′ can be fixed either to the base of the cartridge (FIGS. 5 to 7), or to the wall of the extension which will then advantageously include an annular shoulder 60 for fixing the edge of this membrane (Figure 8), the membrane 48 'which faces the perforation appendage being attached to the lower end of the piston.
- the two membranes are fixed to the lower and upper ends of the reservoir 54.
- the construction of the device of the invention, with its cartridge housed in the body 24, allows easy filling of the main product.
- the assembly of FIG. 9 allows a flexible and easy adaptation of the manufacture of the device to the needs of the customers since the reservoir 54 containing the desired product can be mounted at the last moment inside the body 24 according to the orders .
- the device of FIGS. 1 to 4 works as follows:
- the user begins by tearing off the ring 30 which hitherto guaranteed the inviolability of the device and withdraws the tongue 50. She then places the thumb under the hollow bottom and two other fingers in the housings 26a and
- 26b then exerts pressure on the parts 4 and 6 to bring them closer to one another.
- the descent of the piston into the cavity 14 causes a slight compression of the gas then the perforation of the membrane by the perforator 18, which then engages in the chamber 42.
- the fins 20 guide the air in the chamber 42 and favor its mixing with the main product.
- the piston as well as the perforator exert a pressure on the products which circulate in mixture in the evacuation channels until being evacuated outside in the form of fine droplets (spray).
- the piston 36 and the perforator 18 respectively occupy practically the entire volume of the cavity 14 and the cavity of the extension 36, up to the empty space 37, to allow vaporization. of (almost) the entire dose of the products contained. After dispensing the dose of the product, the device is discarded.
- the user begins by simply removing the ring 30 then exerts a force on the parts to bring them closer.
- the descent of the piston into the cavity 14 compresses the gas which comes into contact with the main product when the first membrane 48 'is opened by one appendage.
- the second membrane 50 ′ can be chosen so that from a certain pressure exerted on it by the products it tears by itself. Otherwise, it will be perforated by the appendix once it has passed through the chamber 42 '(FIG. 7). Once the membrane 50 ′ open, the mixture circulates in the passage up to the orifice 38 by introducing itself into the space 37 of the cartridge then into the evacuation channels.
- the invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described above.
- the device could distribute only one product, for example contained in the cavity 14.
- the cavity 14 could contain the main product, the secondary product being contained inside the passage of the moving part.
- the membrane 48 could have a slot delimited by at least two lips which naturally close the membrane as long as it is kept away from the appendix. When the appendix comes into contact with the membrane, it pushes on its lips, spreading them apart, thereby opening the membrane.
