Definitions
- the present invention relates to a dispensing container product, in particular cosmetic, comprising a rotary actuator.
- These containers have a body open to one of its ends and a circular section wheel mounted to each other end of the body.
- knob moves the solid bread towards the open end of the body, until it protrudes from the container, the product can then be collected by friction.
- FR-A-2 556 696 discloses a container for pasty product whose operating member has a section transverse transverse.
- This type of container makes it possible to accurately dose a quantity of pasty product delivered by turning the actuating member for a position in which it lies in the extension of the body of the container to a position axially symmetrical to the previous one, that is, after a rotation of 180 °, in which he is at new in the extension of the body of the container.
- the present invention aims to provide a dispensing container for product in the form of solid bread which solves, in particular, problems mentioned above and which is of an achievement particularly simple and economical.
- DE 42 30 757 discloses a device comprising a screw having an internal channel and a hood fixed on the head of the screw to close this inner channel.
- a problem with the device described in DE 42 30 757 is that at the moment where the hood is put in place to close the opening of the head of the screw used in filling with the product, there is a risk that the pressure applied to the hood may be not exactly in the axis of the container or excessive, so that the hood can misfire or be badly depressed.
- FR 2,573,734 describes a device comprising a double-walled hood.
- the cross-section of the container body of FR 2 573 734 is circular, likewise than the outer skirt of the hood.
- the present invention relates to a container as defined in claim 1.
- the solid bread can be suitably protected vis-à-vis from the outside by staying inside the container when this last is closed.
- the jack screw has a pitch of between 4 and 8 mm.
- the screw jack of the container has a screw extending over almost the entire height of the container body and through a tapped hole in the cup, we can provide this hole sealing lips that closely match the shape of the nets of the screw, to prevent the passage of the product between the threads of the screw or to ensure airtightness between the upper part of the container containing the solid bread and the lower part of the container in which evolves the wheel.
- the organ of maneuver and the body have, on their walls opposite, shapes embossed and recessed, which in certain angular positions of the maneuvering organ, engage in each other and define points of resistance.
- the body of the container has the same elongated cross section as the rotary maneuver.
- the container 1 comprises a cylindrical body 2 of ovoid section open at the top 3.
- the wall of the container has a thickness reduction 4 which constitutes the seat a cap (not shown) whose inner section corresponds to the outer section of this part 4 of the container.
- the container Opposite its opening 3, the container comprises an organ of maneuver 5, with the same ovoidal outer section, which is pivotally mounted around the axis of the container 6.
- the side wall 5a of the actuator 5 is a gripping surface that is accessible over the entire periphery of the operating member.
- the actuator 5 offers support zones preferential, marked in FIG. 2, by a dashed circle 7, on which a force substantially normal to the side wall of the actuator, as indicated by the arrow ⁇ .
- the container internally comprises a cup 9 whose section corresponds precisely to the inner section of the body 2 so that it is immobilized in rotation in the body 2.
- the cup 9 has in its center a threaded orifice 10 which is traversed by a screw 11, which extends over most of the body height 2 of the container.
- This screw 11 whose pitch is 10 mm, is mounted freely rotatable about the axis 6 of the container, being immobilized axially, through a shoulder 11a in the bottom wall 12 of the body 2, the wall 12 having a shape adapted to receive the head 13 of the screw.
- the bottom wall 12 has an extended orifice 14 downwards by frustoconical edges 15 which form a bearing for the corresponding frustoconical portion 16 of the screw 11.
- edges 15 open down on a circular beach 17 located at the bottom of a frustoconical portion 18 in which takes place the head 13 of the screw, an axial play being formed between said beach circular 17 and a shoulder 19 located at the base of the head 13 of the screw.
- An O-ring 20, housed between these two surfaces 17 and 19, ensures the sealing of the inside of the body 2 vis-à-vis the outside, to prevent any ingress of air that could cause the drying or degradation of the packaged product.
- the bottom wall 12 has a second flat peripheral area 21 against which a second shoulder 22 of the head 13 of the screw.
- a boss 23 which cooperates with a recessed shape 24 of the shoulder 22 of the screw head.
- This boss 23 and this corresponding hollow form 24 create a point of resistance in the rotation of the actuator 5, to allow a user to easily reposition the organ operating in the extension of the body 2 of the container.
- the head 13 of the screw has a side wall 25 parallel to the axis 6 of the container and extending downward, slightly set back from the side wall of the body 2 of the container.
- a retaining groove 26 is provided on the outer face of this side wall 25 of the screw head.
- the cover 27 internally comprises a cylindrical wall of reinforcement 29 which bears against the screw head.
- This cylindrical wall 29 also forms a plug which closes the screw and prevents air from entering the body 2 of the container by the inner channel 30 of the screw.
- the pitch of the screw 11 is relatively because of the possibility offered by the actuator 5 of transmit a relatively large torque.
- the cup has at its periphery a lip seal 31 which bears strongly against the side wall of the body 2 of the container and ensures a perfect seal between the cavities inside the body located on both sides of the cup.
- the tapped hole 10 of the cup has lips 32 which intimately follow the shape of the threads of the screw, in order to prevent any communication between these two cavities inside the body, located on both sides of the cup.
- the elongated shape of the actuator is not limited to an oval but can be any shape with a large dimension, for example a triangle with a big side or a diamond.
