Definitions
- the present invention relates to a valve tip for a liquid cosmetic product dispenser and a method of packaging said product.
- the invention applies to distributors comprising in particular, a reservoir and an internal piston actuated by displacement of a base.
- These distributors are generally equipped with a valve or end valve jointly ensuring the sealing of the reservoir and the delivery of the product.
- the valve is often integrated into an applicator tip that is made either in one piece with the reservoir, or in the form reported.
- This operation which is carried out at the product manufacturer, must be simple and easy to implement so as not to lead to additional production costs and / or quality defects.
- the accuracy of the dosage depends closely on the sensitivity of the valve and its ability to react in response to the overpressures generated by the movements of the piston, even for small amplitudes corresponding to small doses.
- Sealing in turn, relies on the speed and reliability of the return of the movable elements of the valve to their rest position.
- a nozzle according to claim 1 characterized in that the deformable zone consists of the upper wall of a gas cell, supporting 1, pin. Preferably, said cell is then secured to a spacer.
- outlet duct of the product is here produced around the periphery of said cell.
- the lower periphery of said spacer is provided with a connecting member with the upper edge of the tank.
- the cap closing the reservoir comprises a skirt radially clamping with the outer side wall of the reservoir.
- said cap comprises an internal stop limiting the upward sliding of the spacer during assembly on the reservoir.
- Another subject of the invention is a method for packaging a liquid cosmetic product in a dispenser comprising a nozzle according to the invention, characterized in that , after filling, said cap is fitted on the reservoir with the internal spacer in low position to disengage the dispensing orifice, then pressing said nozzle escaping the air included to the outside through the conduit, the enclosure and the orifice until the spacer comes first abutment, downwards against the upper edge of the tank and then the cap abuts against the spacer, while the lug is sealingly engaged in the dispensing orifice.
- the tip is guided on the dispenser by sliding the cap on the side wall of the tank thus providing a radial bearing.
- the tip of the invention is particularly simple since it comprises only two parts (cap and spacer) which are likely to remain attached to one another, forming a pre-assembled assembly delivered to the customer with the other part of the distributor (tank, piston and base).
- the packaging process of the invention is, moreover, easy to industrialize since the final step of closing consists of a simple fitting of the assembly pre-assembled on the tank with automatic exhaust air included.
- this fitting is guided by the cooperation between the skirt of the cap and the tank wall providing a radial bearing.
- Embodiments of the tip are shown in the figures in association with dispensers D liquid cosmetics whose structure is here shown schematically.
- These distributors D comprise in particular and primarily a reservoir R and an internal piston P moved by manual actuation of a base E, and here, in particular, by rotation of said base around a vertical axis relative to the reservoir R and at the tip.
- the tip of the invention is adapted to be mounted on distributors different from those shown here, and in particular on distributors whose piston is moved by axial displacement of the actuator.
- the tip of the invention comprises a cap 1 closing the tank R and having a dispensing orifice 10.
- the orifice 10 can be closed sealingly by a lug or needle 21 integral with a spacer 2 housed in sliding way inside the cap 1.
- the spacer 2 is provided with at least one duct 20 successively providing for the venting of the tank R as shown in FIGS. Figures 3A to 3D and discharging the product from said reservoir, as Figures 1B and 2B .
- the cap 1 and the spacer 2 delimit between them, in the upper part of the tip, an enclosure 12 supplied with product via the conduit 20.
- the wall of this enclosure has at least one elastically deformable zone to disengage the pin 21 of the dispensing orifice 10, under the action of the piston P, to allow the delivery of the product.
- the lower periphery of the spacer 2 is provided with an element ensuring the connection with the upper edge or neck r of the tank R while the cap 1 has a skirt 11 coming in tight radial clamping with the outer side wall of the tank R and in outer abutment against the upper edge of the base E.
- the cap 1 also comprises an internal stop, for example, in the form of a shoulder 13 intended to limit the relative and upward sliding of the spacer 2 during assembly of the nozzle on a dispenser, as shown in FIGS. Figures 3C and 3D .
- the deformable zone of the chamber 12 is carried by the upper part of the cap 1. This zone is formed by the wall of the cap itself, which is formed, at least around the dispensing orifice 10, with a specific material and / or thickness, giving it sufficient flexibility to release the orifice 10 under the pressure of the product.
- the duct 20 is here formed through the spacer 2 and, in the variant shown, around the lug 21.
- the reservoir R has a collar r whose profile is complementary to that of the peripheral collar 22 of the spacer 2 ensuring the connection with said neck by interlocking.
- the profile of the lateral face of the spacer 2 matches the inner wall of the cap 1 at the shoulder 13, thus ensuring a setting in the high position.
- the deformable zone of the chamber 12 consists of the upper wall 23a of a gas cell 24 supporting the pin 21.
- the gas used will be air at atmospheric pressure.
- the cell 24 is hermetic and integral with the spacer 2.
- the cell is housed inside the spacer and the bottom 23b of the cell consists of a rigid wall dimensionally stable under the pressure conditions that are likely to be established.
- This bottom may be attached, as in the variant shown, or made in one piece with the other parts of the cell 24.
- the conduit 20 is formed around the periphery of the cell in the form of at least one channel 20a. If a plurality of channels are provided, as in the variant shown, these will be separated by partitions 25 which extend, axially, between the lateral wall of the cell 24 and the wall of the nozzle 1.
- the neck of the tank is formed of at least one peripheral slot c jointly ensuring the passage of the product and the connection with the spacer 2.
- the spacer 2 is in the low position; the lug 21 being set back relative to the orifice 10.
- the nozzle is then pressed in the vertical direction, which has the effect of causing the enclosed air to escape to the outside (represented by the arrows on the figure 3B ) continuously and automatically via the conduit 20, the enclosure 12 and the orifice 10.
- the tip is guided by external sliding of the cap 1 on the side wall of the tank R thus providing a radial bearing, while the spacer 2 is fixed relative to the cap 1.
- the spacer 2 is immobilized on the reservoir and only the cap 1 continues to slide vertically and relatively to the spacer / reservoir assembly.
