- said connecting means (4) can be chosen to allow manual separation of at least one of the containers Ri.
- Said connection means (4) may comprise at least two connection points (40) between said container Ri and said corresponding support portion Si (20), connection points (40) typically symmetrical with respect to said axial direction Ai.
- the support portions Si (20) are separated from each other by median lines (201) between the containers, or by lines forming a hinge or rupture line (202).
- connection means (4) may comprise four connection points (40), two being located at said neck (31), the other two being located at said bottom (34).
- said connecting means (4) can be formed by a material bridge or thinning of material, in the same plastic material or forming the junction of two different plastic materials, capable of being broken manually, connecting said container Ri to said portion support Si, by snap-fastening or clipping of elements of the container Ri cooperating with elements of said support portion Si, or by these two means simultaneously. It is simply important that the containers R (3) remain integral with their support S (2) as long as the end user does not wish to consume the contents of a container R.
- said support S (2) can form an openwork plate (5) of thickness chosen to form a rigid or semi-rigid support S.
- Such a plate is therefore distinguished from all flexible film materials.
- said support S (2) can form a trellis or a chain (6), comprising connecting lugs (60) intended to form all or part of said connecting means (4), as illustrated in Figures 6 to 6b.
- connecting lugs 60
- said support (2) can be made of plastic, typically of polyolefin. It can also be metallic, typically aluminum or stainless steel, or alternatively in the form of a strip or wire having sufficient rigidity for said assembly to hold said containers in a predetermined position.
- said portions of supports Si (20) are typically all identical, so as to offer doses of different products or replacement doses of the same product.
- said containers Ri (3) and said portions of supports Si (20) may not be identical, so as to offer a combination of typically complementary products, or different capacities of the same product.
- the different containers Ri (3) may or may not be different and contain different products, typically care, make-up or beauty products, of the type of creams, nail polish, lotions, or any other fluid product used for the body care.
- a container Ri can contain a powder, to be mixed with a liquid contained in a neighboring container Ri; or again, a container Ri may contain a first active ingredient, and container Rj a second active ingredient, to be mixed with the first during use.
- the different contents of the containers Ri form a range or a palette of colors.
- At least one of said containers Ri (3) can be a container obtained by injection-blowing of a plastic material, for example a polyolefin (PE, PP).
- a plastic material for example a polyolefin (PE, PP).
- PE polyolefin
- all of the containers Ri (3) are obtained by injection blow molding.
- FIGS 1 to 5 in particular correspond to this modality.
- the material constituting said support S (2) may or may not differ from that constituting said containers Ri (3), typically by nature or color.
- the supports and / or the containers can be translucent.
- said support S (2) can be surface treated and typically carry information or a decoration, obtained in particular by printing or labeling.
- the number of portions of support Si (20) or that of receptacles Ri (3) can typically be between 2 and 20, and typically from 4 to 8, said support portions Si being able to be articulated or not them, or comprise hinge elements (201), and possibly a spacer panel (24), so as to be able to fold, or wind, on itself said assembly (1).
- said neck (31) can be closed by a cap (7), screwed or snapped onto said neck, said cap (7) possibly carrying an application means, typically a brush (70), as illustrated in FIG. 2d.
- said container Ri is centered relative to said obviously Ei, so as to form, apart from the location of said connecting points, a space or spacing (25) between said outline Ci and said container Ri of thickness typically constant and comprised between 0.5 and 5 mm.
- a space or spacing (25) between said outline Ci and said container Ri typically constant and comprised between 0.5 and 5 mm.
- the outline Ci and the profile of the container Ri are homothetic, with a spacing (25) substantially constant, so as to better enhance the value of container Ri, as illustrated for example in FIG. 3 .
- said support portions Si (20) forming said support S can form manually separable elements, typically by means of a line or weakening means (202) separating the support portion Si and the portion of next support Sj, and in which each container Ri remains integral with said corresponding support portion Si.
- the support portions Si (20) are separable from one another, it is no longer necessary for the containers Ri to be separable from the corresponding support portions Si.
- said support S or said support portions Si can / can form or comprise a predetermined station means, typically of vertical station, so that said containers remain rights.
- said support S can comprise one or more cavities intended to form, after the addition of a cover (28), one or more pots Pi (27) of axis (26) perpendicular to said support S or to said portion.
- This additional method also makes it possible to package other products, typically less fluid than those packaged in containers Ri, in particular pasty or solid products, possibly agglomerated powders, which do not tend to flow or to flow whatever the position of their container. These products are usually packaged in pots or boxes with a wide opening and a shallow depth, so as to have direct access to the product.
- Another object of the invention consists of methods of manufacturing the distributor assembly (1) according to the invention.
- a support S (2) provided with said recesses Ei is supplied, and it is placed in a first mold, b) it is first formed by injecting a plastic material into said first mold preforms Pi or blanks for receptacles Ri (8), assembled to this support S (2), so as to form in a single piece an assembly blank (9), c) then forming said assembly (1) by blowing in a multi-cavity mold said assembly blank (9), each preform (8) being blown into a cavity so as to form each of the containers Ri.
- the support S (2) it can be in the form of a format, typically stackable, or of a very long strip which can be rolled up or folded.
- Said support S (3) is rectangular or circular, the containers Ri being arranged respectively in a parallel or in a radial manner. In all of the figures, the containers are arranged in a parallel manner, except in FIG. 7 where they are arranged radially.
- the invention applies to all the usual capacities, thus the capacity of the said containers Ri (3), possibly different for the containers Ri and Rj, can vary from 0.5 cm 3 to 200 cm 3 , and preferably from 5 cm 3 to 50 cm 3 .
- Another object of the invention consists in using said assembly (1) according to the invention to form doses or samples of all types of products typically fluids, including for example pharmaceuticals or cleaning products, the same product thus being packaged in Ri containers, with i typically between 2 and 20, or even more than 20, in particular when said support forms a strip of great length .
- This other object also includes a use of said assembly (1) according to the invention to form doses or samples of different products possibly forming a range of different products, for example by color, for all types of typically fluid products, including for example pharmaceuticals or cleaning products, coloring matters.
- the invention can be applied to the packaging in said containers Ri of all fluid, semi-fluid, pasty or creamy products insofar as said container can be of flexible compressible wall, so as to allow the flow of the conditioned product by pressure manual exerted on the wall of the container. Furthermore, the possible presence of Pi pots also makes it possible to package products which are not very fluid or not, from pasty products to solid products.
- an assembly blank (9) comprising the support S and the preforms (8) of the containers was first formed by injection. Then, these preforms were blown to form the containers Ri.
- the support (6) was first formed, then it was placed in the device for injecting the preforms so as to secure the support (6) and the preforms. Then the preforms were blown.
- distributor assemblies (1) which are economical to manufacture, in particular in the case where the support and the preforms are simultaneously formed by injection,
- the invention discloses a new concept of distributor assemblies (1) which opens the way to a virtually very large number of practical achievements, so as to be able to offer different customers personalized distributor assemblies, - finally, the invention can lend itself to a large number of very diverse uses, in the field of cosmetology, but also in many other fields, for example that of paints, cleaning products, fluid polishes, etc., where it can be interesting to have on hand a distributor assembly bringing together different colors or shades of a certain type of product.
