Description
- This application is a continuation of International Patent Application No. PCT/EP20041004834 filed on May 6, 2004, which designates the United States and claims priority of French Patent Application No. 0305667 filed on May 7, 2003.
- This invention relates to a dispenser of liquid cosmetic products as well as to a method for packaging these products.
- More specifically, the invention is applicable to products such as, particularly, creams, gels and semi-liquid viscous products, which are currently increasingly replacing traditional products in solid stick or paste form.
- There are known dispensers of the type that comprise particularly a reservoir, an internal piston and an applicator nozzle provided with an end valve.
- For what relates, more specifically, to semi-liquid products, their density and high viscosity render these dispensers useless and make it necessary to modify their structure in order to meet stricter conditions of dosing, watertightness and protection of the product.
- For marketing reasons, it is equally important to preserve at least part of the overall appearance of the traditional packaging in order to avoid an abrupt break with the make-up habits of the users.
- In particular, it seems essential to perpetuate the use of a rotary movement for delivering and dosing the product.
- And yet, due to the fluidity of certain products, resorting to such a movement poses watertightness and dosing problems.
- It is necessary particularly to guarantee hermetic blocking of the dispenser using an end valve that does not have any kind of retention area in which a residual volume of the product would be at a risk of remaining and drying up, resulting in blocking the valve.
- Furthermore, the packaging of liquid cosmetics poses specific problems relating particularly to the air contained in the reservoir, which must necessarily be evacuated during the filling phase of the dispenser.
- This hydraulic constraint generally implies implementing complex means at the product manufacturer's plant, which result in parasitic technical difficulties and pointless additional costs.
- The aim of this invention is to solve these problems in a satisfactory manner, by providing a dispenser with an original structure using the piston-plug concept.
- This aim is achieved, according to the invention, by means of a dispenser characterised in that the said reservoir is delimited inside the nozzle, at a first end by the said valve and, at the other end, by the said piston forming a plug, which is screwed onto a threaded axial rod formed integral with a base connected rotatingly to the said nozzle.
- According to an advantageous characteristic, the said piston comprises, on the one hand, a cylindrical compression element covering the said threaded rod and having a peripheral lip in watertight contact with the inside wall of the reservoir and, on the other hand, on the outside of the said reservoir, a connection collar attached to the said rod and rotatingly blocked on the said base.
- According to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the said reservoir is provided with a jacket fixed in the nozzle extended, if required, by a sleeve housed in the base.
- Preferably, the said sleeve is provided with means for blocking the rotation of the said piston and means for locking it in the base.
- Another aim of the invention is a method for packaging a liquid cosmetic product in a dispenser of the type comprising, particularly, an applicator nozzle enclosing an internal piston and a reservoir blocked at a first end by a valve, characterised in that the reservoir is filled by its other end in the inverted position of the dispenser, and then the said piston is inserted as a plug, expelling the air in the reservoir to close off this other end in a watertight manner, and the piston is locked in this closed position.
- According to an advantageous characteristic of the method, it provides for a threaded axial rod, formed integral with a base, to be inserted and fixed in the said piston, prior to closing the reservoir.
- Furthermore, the fixing of the rod in the piston and transmission of the movement are provided by elastic distortion of the material from which the piston is made.
- In addition, the piston is locked in the closed position of the reservoir by axially and rotatingly connecting the base to the nozzle.
- In parallel, the rotation of the said piston is blocked by cooperation with limit stops formed integral with the nozzle.
- Preferably, the watertightness of the reservoir is only ensured when locking the said piston.
- Finally, the reservoir is filled leaving a small amount of air forming a buffer such as to prevent the product from leaking through the valve when inserting the piston.
- Thus, the rotation movement of the base is transformed into an axial translation of the piston in the reservoir, which places the product under pressure and enables it to be delivered.
- The dispenser of the invention has a general appearance and ergonomics that are very similar to those of traditional sticks while having very different functional elements that are adapted to the nature of new semi-liquid products, to their physical properties and to the small doses that need to be dispensed.
- This dispenser can therefore have applications in the field of liquid cosmetics, packaged for sale or as samples.
- In addition, the watertightness of the dispenser and the way in which the product is dispensed are perfectly compatible with the constraints that relate to liquid cosmetic products.
- The dispenser of the invention also has a very simple structure and therefore a particularly inexpensive cost price.
- Moreover, the packaging method of the invention is particularly easy to implement and its piston-plug principle provides watertight and reliable sealing of the dispenser, which overcomes the problems of air being included.
- In fact, the air is released gradually during the blocking phase as the piston enters the reservoir.
- In addition, there is no need to provide watertightness means at the bottom of the dispenser insofar as the piston-plug already provides this watertightness inside it, at the top.
- The invention will be better understood from reading the following description made in reference to the appended diagrams, in which:
-
FIG. 1 shows an axial section view of an embodiment of the dispenser of the invention. -
FIGS. 2A to 2C show schematic views of various steps in the packaging method of the invention. - The dispenser shown in
FIG. 1 is designed for delivering and applying liquid cosmetic products. - For this purpose, it comprises an
applicator nozzle 1 provided with anend valve 2, aproduct reservoir 10 and aninternal piston 3. - The
valve 2 is made up, for example, of anevacuation orifice 20 arranged on an elastically distortable portion of the wall of thenozzle 1, with its edges resting against a pin orneedle valve 50 supported here, via aspacer 55, by ajacket 5 fixed in the said nozzle. - According to an alternative not shown in the figures, it is possible to add a lid to cover the
nozzle 1, which can support the pin instead of the jacket, if required. - The
reservoir 10 is delimited inside thenozzle 1, at a first end (top in this case) by thevalve 2 and, at the other end (bottom in this case) by thepiston 3 forming a plug, which is screwed onto a threadedaxial rod 41 formed integral with abase 4 rotatingly connected to thenozzle 1. - The
piston 3 comprises acylindrical compression element 31 that covers the threadedrod 41 and has aperipheral lip 35 that is able to slide in watertight contact with the inside wall of thereservoir 10, in this case covered with thejacket 5. - This
compression element 31 is connected, outside the reservoir, via asocket 33, to aconnection collar 32 attached to therod 41 and rotatingly blocked in thebase 4 by means of limit stops formed integral with thenozzle 1, such as a series ofaxial ribs 42. - Preferably, as shown in the figures, the
jacket 5 is extended by asleeve 54 that is housed and axially locked in thebase 4, for example using locking means 44 that allow the relative rotation of the latter. - The
jacket 5 matches the inside profile of thenozzle 1 and has a widenedsection 53 for connection with thesleeve 54. - Rotating the
base 4 in relation to thenozzle 1 results, by transmission of the movement via the thread and the limit stops 42, in ascending axial translation of thepiston 3 inside thereservoir 10 and the necessary compression of the product, forcing thevalve 2 to open and deliver the product. - The assembly of the various parts of the dispenser as well as the packaging of the product are carried out as follows, placing the nozzle in an inverted position as shown in
FIGS. 2A to 2C. - First of all, the
reservoir 10 is filled by the open end of thesleeve 54, thevalve 2 remaining closed and providing the watertightness at the bottom as shown inFIG. 2A . - The filling of the reservoir stops when the level of the product P reaches, at maximum, the widened
section 53 of thesleeve 5. - It is preferable, however, to leave a small amount of air above the level of the product in order to compensate for possible faults in the filling and/or in the positioning of the
piston 3 and to avoid the risk of the product leaking out of thevalve 2 when inserting the piston. This layout makes it possible to create a compressible area forming a buffer that is able to absorb the pushing effort of the piston and to minimise its effects on the uncompressible liquid product. - The
base 4 is assembled on thepiston 3, previously or on the packaging site, by forced insertion of therod 41 in thecollar 32 as shown inFIG. 2B . - If the collar is not provided with a thread, it must be made from a flexible, elastic material that allows it to distort in order to fix and anchor on the threads of the
rod 41, which in turn is made from a rigid plastic material. - Then, the
piston 3 is inserted in thejacket 5 as if it were a plug, pushing by thebase 4 and expelling, via thelip 35 and around thesocket 33, the air contained in the reservoir. - In the final phase of the assembly operations, the fraction of air that remains inside the reservoir, is expelled to the outside, under the increasing pressure created by the piston, passing through the
gorge 34 made in the wall of thecollar 32, getting round the edge of thesleeve 54 and then through theevacuation channel 40 made in the wall of thebase 4 or, according to an alternative, through a groove (not shown) made in the outside wall of thesleeve 54 or in the inside wall of the base. - Therefore, only the
lip 35 reaches the end, in watertight contact with the wall of thesleeve 5 at the height of thesection 53. - Thus, the
reservoir 10 is only sealed in a watertight manner during the final step, when the piston-plug 3 is locked in its blocking position by axially connecting thebase 4 to thesocket 54 of the nozzle. - The rotation of the
piston 3 is also blocked at this point by cooperation of thecollar 32 with the limit stops 42 formed integral with thesocket 54 and thus with thenozzle 1. - In this position, the
compression element 31 is almost in contact with the free surface of the liquid product P and, once returned to the position shown inFIG. 1 , the dispenser is ready to be used. - The axial movement of the
piston 3 in the reservoir, in the direction of the valve, causes compression inside thereservoir 10 and a depression in the compartment delimited between thebase 4, thesleeve 54, thesocket 33 and thecollar 32. This depression is compensated by air being taken in through thechannel 40 and thegorge 34. - Thus, the watertightness of the dispenser is only necessary at the level of the piston-plug, which thus forms, during operation, the bottom of the
reservoir 10. - A tamper-proof strip placed between the nozzle and the base can advantageously complete the assembly while a lid (not shown) can, if required, round off the packaging and the aesthetic appearance of the whole dispenser.
