Description

Bouchon pour col de réservoir de produit fluide Fluid tank neck cap
La présente invention concerne un bouchon destiné à être monté sur un réservoir de produit fluide. Ce bouchon comporte une embase de fixation définissant un orifice et un organe d'obturation apte à obturer ledit orifice. La présente invention concerne également un distributeur pourvu d'un tel bouchon. Les domaines d'application privilégiés de ce type de bouchon sont notamment la parfumerie et la cosmétique. Par « produit fluide », on entend bien sûr les liquides plus ou moins visqueux, mais aussi les poudres. De nombreux systèmes de fermeture de récipient, appelés communément bouchons, comportant un organe de d'obturation apte à se fixer sur une embase afin d'interdire la sortie de produit fluide contenu dans un récipient sont connus de l'état de la technique. Il est par exemple connu dans le domaine des échantillons en parfumerie cosmétique des distributeurs présentant un réservoir d'une contenance de l'ordre de deux à trois millilitres, appelé communément flaconnette, muni d'un bouchon comportant un capuchon amovible. Le capuchon peut aussi être fixé sur une embase montée sur le col de la flaconnette.The present invention relates to a plug intended to be mounted on a fluid reservoir. This plug has a fixing base defining an orifice and a shutter member capable of closing said orifice. The present invention also relates to a dispenser provided with such a plug. The preferred areas of application of this type of stopper are in particular perfumery and cosmetics. By "fluid product" is understood of course more or less viscous liquids, but also powders. Numerous container closure systems, commonly called caps, comprising a closure member capable of being fixed on a base in order to prevent the exit of the fluid product contained in a container are known from the prior art. It is for example known in the field of samples in cosmetic perfumery from distributors having a reservoir with a capacity of the order of two to three milliliters, commonly known as a small bottle, provided with a stopper comprising a removable cap. The cap can also be fixed on a base mounted on the neck of the bottle.
En variante, le capuchon peut être simplement enfoncé sur le col ou dans le col de la flaconnette. Une fixation par vissage peut aussi être mise en œuvre afin de fixer le capuchon sur l'embase ou le col de la flaconnette. Ainsi, pour distribuer une dose de produit fluide, il suffit de retirer le capuchon en le dévissant ou en le tirant puis de pencher ou de renverser le distributeur afin d'extraire le produit contenu dans le réservoir. Le produit contenu dans le réservoir, qui peut être une crème, une lotion, un parfum ou une poudre, est alors généralement recueilli sur le bout des doigts par l'utilisateur puis appliqué sur une surface d'application, en général la peau. Ainsi, un problème lié à l'utilisation de telles flaconnettes réside dans la non reproductibilité des doses de produit fluide distribuées et de manière plus générale dans l'imprécision des doses prélevées. Un autre problème est lié à l'intervention des doigts qui sont d'une part imprégnés et polluent d'autre par le produit dans la flaconnette. Un but de la présente invention consiste donc à améliorer les dispositifs de distribution existants. La présente invention a encore pour but de remédier aux inconvénients de l'art antérieur par la mise en œuvre d'un distributeur comportant un bouchon capable d'extraire du produit fluide de façon plus précise et plus reproductible, et sans l'intervention des doigts de l'utilisateur. Un autre but de la présente invention est encore la mise au point d'un bouchon facile à fabriquer, à assembler et de faible coût de revient. Une fixation étanche du capuchon sur le col ou l'embase est un autre problème. Pour atteindre ces buts, la présente invention propose un bouchon destiné à être monté sur un col d'un réservoir de produit fluide, ledit bouchon comprenant une embase de fixation et un organe d'obturation, l'embase définissant un orifice et l'organe d'obturation étant apte à obturer ledit orifice, caractérisé en ce que l'organe d'obturation comprend un élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application de produit fluide qui s'étend à travers l'embase. L'élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application est destiné à tremper dans le produit fluide contenu dans le réservoir ou la flaconnette. Avantageusement, ledit élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application comporte des moyens de rétention de produit fluide, fls peuvent se présenter sous la forme de rainures ou de nervures par exemple. Avantageusement, ladite embase comporte une bague pourvue d'un profil d'encliquetage apte à venir s'encliqueter dans un évidement correspondant dudit col afin de maintenir ladite embase sur ledit col. Avantageusement, ladite embase comporte une jupe d'étanchéité apte à venir en contact étanche dans ledit col. Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse, ladite embase et ledit organe d'obturation sont réalisés de manière monobloc en étant reliés l'un à l'autre par un pont de matière cassable lors d'une première utilisation. Cette réalisation monobloc constitue ainsi une sécurité de premier usage garantissant à l'acheteur la primeur d'utilisation du dispositif commercialisé. Le pont de matière garantit également une parfaite étanchéité du distributeur avant la première utilisation. Avantageusement, l'orifice de l'embase est délimité par un bord périphérique relié par ledit pont de matière à une surface de jonction de l'élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application. En d'autres termes, l'embase est initialement reliée d'une pièce à l'organe d'obturation, et définit, après retrait de l'organe d'obturation, un bord périphérique formant l'orifice de distribution.Alternatively, the cap can be simply pressed onto the neck or into the neck of the bottle. A screw fixing can also be implemented in order to fix the cap on the base or the neck of the bottle. Thus, to dispense a dose of fluid, simply remove the cap by unscrewing or pulling it and then tilt or overturn the dispenser to extract the product contained in the tank. The product contained in the reservoir, which can be a cream, a lotion, a perfume or a powder, is then generally collected on the fingertips by the user and then applied to an application surface, generally the skin. Thus, a problem linked to the use of such flasks resides in the non-reproducibility of the doses of fluid product distributed and more generally in the imprecision of the doses withdrawn. Another problem is related to the intervention of the fingers which are on the one hand impregnated and pollute on the other hand by the product in the bottle. An object of the present invention therefore consists in improving the existing distribution devices. Another object of the present invention is to remedy the drawbacks of the prior art by implementing a dispenser comprising a plug capable of extracting fluid product more precisely and more reproducibly, and without the intervention of the fingers. of the user. Another object of the present invention is still the development of a plug which is easy to manufacture, to assemble and of low cost price. Another problem is tight sealing of the cap on the neck or base. To achieve these goals, the present invention provides a plug intended to be mounted on a neck of a fluid reservoir, said plug comprising a fixing base and a closure member, the base defining an orifice and the member shutter being able to close said orifice, characterized in that the shutter member comprises a member for withdrawing and / or applying a fluid product which extends through the base. The sampling and / or application element is intended to soak in the fluid product contained in the reservoir or the vial. Advantageously, said sampling and / or application element comprises means for retaining fluid, fls can be in the form of grooves or ribs for example. Advantageously, said base comprises a ring provided with a latching profile capable of snapping into a corresponding recess of said neck in order to maintain said base on said neck. Advantageously, said base includes a sealing skirt capable of coming into sealing contact in said neck. According to another particularly advantageous characteristic, said base and said closure member are made in one piece by being connected to each other by a bridge of breakable material during a first use. This one-piece construction thus constitutes first-use security guaranteeing the purchaser the first use of the device marketed. The material bridge also guarantees perfect sealing of the dispenser before first use. Advantageously, the orifice of the base is delimited by a peripheral edge connected by said bridge of material to a junction surface of the withdrawal and / or application element. In other words, the base is initially connected in one piece to the shutter member, and defines, after removal of the shutter member, a peripheral edge forming the dispensing orifice.
L'embase peut être reliée à l'organe d'obturation autre part qu'au niveau de l'élément de prélèvement. Avantageusement, ledit bord périphérique est apte à venir en contact étanche contre une surface d'étanchéité dudit élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application après une rupture dudit pont de matière. Il s'agit là d'une position fermée de refermeture étanche après la première utilisation. Avantageusement, ledit élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application comporte un cordon d'encliquetage apte à coopérer avec ledit bord périphérique pour le maintenir en contact étanche de la surface d'étanchéité en position fermée de refermeture. Avantageusement, ledit cordon d'encliquetage est situé entre la surface de jonction et la surface d'étanchéité. Avantageusement, ledit organe d'obturation comporte un élément de préhension destiné à être saisi par un utilisateur, ledit élément de préhension comportant une paroi basale située en regard de ladite embase, ladite paroi basale étant distante de ladite embase avant rupture du pont de matière et venant en butée ou au contact de ladite embase après rupture du pont de matière et encliquetage du bord périphérique entre ledit cordon d'encliquetage et ladite paroi basale. Avantageusement, ladite surface d'étanchéité est localisée entre ledit cordon d'encliquetage et ladite paroi basale. Avantageusement, ledit élément de préhension comporte deux faces opposées en miroir présentant chacune une surface concave destinée à faciliter la préhension et le retrait de l'organe d'obturation. De préférence, ledit orifice présente un diamètre tel que le produit fluide contenu dans le réservoir est retenu par capillarité au niveau dudit orifice lorsque ledit bouchon est retourné. On peut ainsi se servir du bouchon comme applicateur. Avantageusement, ledit orifice présente un diamètre avantageusement deThe base can be connected to the closure member other than at the level of the sampling element. Advantageously, said peripheral edge is able to come into tight contact against a sealing surface of said sampling and / or application element after a rupture of said bridge of material. This is a closed sealed reclosing position after the first use. Advantageously, said sampling and / or application element comprises a latching cord capable of cooperating with said peripheral edge to maintain it in leaktight contact with the sealing surface in the closed reclosing position. Advantageously, said snap-on bead is located between the junction surface and the sealing surface.

We can thus use the cap as an applicator. Advantageously, said orifice has a diameter advantageously of
2 à 6 mm et de préférence de 3 à 4 mm. La présente invention concerne également un distributeur comportant un réservoir de produit fluide et un bouchon selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes monté sur ledit réservoir, ledit élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application s'étendant dans le réservoir jusqu'à environ mi- hauteur dudit réservoir. L'extrémité inférieure libre de l'élément de prélèvement peut également s'arrêter plus haut ou plus bas, par exemple vers le fond du réservoir. L'invention sera maintenant plus amplement décrite en référence aux dessins joints donnant à titre d'exemple non limitatif un mode de réalisation de l'invention. Sur les figures : ,< - la figure la est une vue en section transversale verticale à travers un distributeur de produit fluide comportant un bouchon selon l'invention avant première utilisation, la figure lb est un agrandissement d'une partie du bouchon représenté en figure la, la figure 2a est vue similaire à la figure la en position fermée de refermeture du bouchon, - la figure 2b est vue similaire à la figure lb en position fermée de refemeture représentée en figure 2a, la figure 3 est une vue latérale en section transversale verticale d'un distributeur de produit fluide comportant un bouchon selon l'invention avant utilisation, - la figure 4 est vue similaire à la figure 3 présentant une variante de réalisation du bouchon selon l'invention, la figure 5 est une vue également similaire à la figure 3 présentant une autre variante de réalisation du bouchon selon l'invention. En référence aux figures, le distributeur de produit fluide de l'invention comporte un réservoir 4 et un bouchon 1. Le réservoir 4, destiné à contenir du produit fluide tel qu'une crème, une lotion ou un parfum peut être réalisé en verre ou en plastique. Le réservoir 4 comporte un col 40 formant une ouverture faisant communiquer l'intérieur du réservoir avec l'extérieur. Le col 40 comporte une paroi interne 41 située dans l'ouverture du col, une extrémité supérieure 43 et une paroi externe 42. Un évidement 401 est ménagé au niveau de la paroi externe 42. Le réservoir comprend également un f t 44, obturé par un fond 45. La paroi externe du fût 44 peut par exemple être circulaire cylindrique. La contenance du réservoir est généralement de l'ordre de quelques millilitres. Le bouchon 1 comporte deux éléments constitutifs, à savoir, une embase de fixation 2 et un organe d'obturation 3. L'embase de fixation 2 comprend un plateau radial 20, une jupe d'étanchéité 21 et une bague 22 de fixation. Le plateau radial 20 forme une surface supérieure, avantageusement circulaire et plane. La jupe d'étanchéité 21 s'étend axialement vers le bas à partir du plateau radial 20. La bague 22 s'étend axialement à partir de la périphérie externe du plateau radial 20 de façon concentrique à la jupe d'étanchéité 21 et comporte une extrémité inférieure pourvue d'un profil d'encliquetage 220, qui fait saillie vers l'intérieur. Ainsi, lorsque l'embase 2 est montée sur le col 40 du réservoir 4, la bague 22 est en contact de la paroi externe 42 et le profil d'encliquetage 220 est alors engagé dans l'évidement 401. Avantageusement, la bague 22 s'étend dans l'alignement du fût 44, de manière à conférer avantageusement un aspect général tabulaire. Le plateau radial 20 est disposé avantageusement de façon à venir reposer sur l'extrémité supérieure 43 du col. La jupe d'étanchéité 21 vient quant à elle se loger dans l'ouverture du col, avantageusement en contact étanche avec la paroi interne 41 de sorte à éviter toute possibilité de fuite entre le col et l'embase. L'organe d'obturation 3, réalisé préférentiellement en matériau plastique, comprend un élément de préhension 30 et un élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application de produit fluide 31. L'élément de préhension 30, destiné à être saisi par un utilisateur lors d'une application de produit fluide, peut présenter toutes formes appropriées. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, l'élément de préhension 30 comporte un sommet 300, à partir duquel s'étendent deux bords 301 en vis à vis et deux faces2 to 6 mm and preferably 3 to 4 mm. The present invention also relates to a dispenser comprising a fluid reservoir and a cap according to any one of the preceding claims mounted on said reservoir, said withdrawal and / or application element extending in the reservoir up to approximately half - height of said tank. The free lower end of the sampling element can also stop higher or lower, for example towards the bottom of the tank. The invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings which give an embodiment of the invention by way of non-limiting example. In the figures:, <- FIG. 1a is a vertical cross-section view through a fluid dispenser comprising a plug according to the invention before first use, FIG. 1b is an enlargement of part of the plug shown in FIG. 1a, FIG. 2a is a view similar to FIG. 1a in the closed position for reclosing the plug, - FIG. 2b is a view similar to FIG. 1b in the closed re-closure position shown in FIG. vertical cross-section of a fluid dispenser comprising a plug according to the invention before use, - Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 3 showing an alternative embodiment of the plug according to the invention, Figure 5 is a view also similar to Figure 3 showing another alternative embodiment of the plug according to the invention. With reference to the figures, the fluid dispenser of the invention comprises a reservoir 4 and a plug 1. The reservoir 4, intended to contain fluid product such as a cream, a lotion or a perfume can be made of glass or in plastic. The reservoir 4 has a neck 40 forming an opening communicating the interior of the reservoir with the exterior. The neck 40 has an internal wall 41 situated in the opening of the neck, an upper end 43 and an external wall 42. A recess 401 is formed at the level of the external wall 42. The reservoir also comprises a ft 44, closed by a bottom 45. The external wall of the barrel 44 can for example be circular cylindrical. The capacity of the tank is generally of the order of a few milliliters. The plug 1 comprises two constituent elements, namely, a fixing base 2 and a closure member 3. The fixing base 2 comprises a radial plate 20, a sealing skirt 21 and a fixing ring 22. The radial plate 20 forms an upper surface, advantageously circular and planar. The sealing skirt 21 extends axially downwards from the radial plate 20. The ring 22 extends axially from the external periphery of the radial plate 20 concentrically with the sealing skirt 21 and has a lower end provided with a snap-on profile 220, which projects inwards. Thus, when the base 2 is mounted on the neck 40 of the reservoir 4, the ring 22 is in contact with the external wall 42 and the latching profile 220 is then engaged in the recess 401. Advantageously, the ring 22 s 'extends in line with the barrel 44, so as to advantageously confer a general tabular appearance. The radial plate 20 is advantageously arranged so as to come to rest on the upper end 43 of the neck. The sealing skirt 21 comes as it fits in the opening of the neck, advantageously in leaktight contact with the internal wall 41 so as to avoid any possibility of leakage between the neck and the base. The closure member 3, preferably made of plastic material, comprises a gripping element 30 and a member for withdrawing and / or applying fluid 31. The gripping element 30, intended to be grasped by a user during the application of a fluid product, may have any suitable form. According to a preferred embodiment, the gripping element 30 comprises a top 300, from which extend two edges 301 opposite and two faces
303a et 303b situées également en vis-à-vis. Les bords 301 et les faces 303a et 303b forment ainsi quatre pans débouchant sur une paroi basale 302. Comme visible sur la figure 3 représentant un distributeur de profil, les faces 303a et 303b s'étendent du sommet 300 jusqu'à la paroi basale 302 en étant agencées de part et d'autres des bords 301. Ces faces 303a et 303b présentent une forme incurvée et plus particulièrement concave. Le sommet 300 présentant une largeur inférieure à la paroi basale 302, les faces 303a et 303b divergent donc de façon plus importante au niveau de la paroi basale 302. Ces faces 303a et 303b dans ce mode de réalisation préféré forment ainsi deux faces opposées en image de miroir à partir d'un plan de symétrie A traversant axialement les bords 301 de l'organe d'obturation 3. Cette forme de réalisation est particulièrement avantageuse, facilitant la prise en main de l'organe d'obturation 3 et son retrait du réservoir 4. L'élément de prélèvement et/ou d'application 31 a pour fonction de permettre le prélèvement d'une quantité donnée de produit fluide. L'élément 31 présente une configuration générale cylindrique avantageusement tronconique, mais cette configuration n'est pas limitative, de nombreuses formes pouvant être envisagées. La section de l'élément 31 est de préférence régulièrement décroissante depuis l'élément de préhension. L'élément de prélèvement 31 a également pour fonction de faciliter la remise en place de l'organe d'obturation sur l'embase. L'élément 31 comporte avantageusement une extrémité inférieure libre 313, une surface de jonction 310, un cordon d'encliquetage 311 et une surface d'étanchéité 312. L'extrémité inférieure libre 313 peut comporter des moyens de rétention de produit fluide. Ces moyens de rétention peuvent être plusieurs rainure(s) longitudinale(s) 3130 comme représentée(s) sur la figure 4 ou une fente 3131, comme représentée sur la figure 5, traversant de part et d'autre rextrémité inférieure 313. Cependant d'autres formes de réalisation de moyens garantissant la rétention de produit fluide peuvent être envisagées comme par exemple une boucle de rétention, un pinceau, un tampon ou un embout souple. La surface de jonction 310 est une surface cylindrique circulaire s'étendant sur le pourtour de l'élément 31. Le cordon d'encliquetage 311 forme un bourrelet annulaire faisant saillie radialement à partir de l'élément 31. La surface d'étanchéité 312 correspond quant à elle également à une surface cylindrique circulaire s'étendant sur le pourtour de l'élément 31. Avantageusement, la surface de jonction 310 et la surface d'étanchéité 312 se situent de part efc,d'autre du cordon d'encliquetage 311. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté sur les différentes figures, la surface de jonction 310 est située entre rextrémité inférieure libre 313 de l'élément 31 et le cordon d'encliquetage 311 alors que la surface d'étanchéité 312 est localisée entre le cordon d'encliquetage 312 et la paroi basale 42 de l'élément de préhension. La surface d'étanchéité 312 définit ainsi un logement d'encliquetage étanche entre le cordon 311 et la paroi basale 302. L'élément 31 s'étend avantageusement de la paroi basale 302 à travers l'embase 2 jusqu'à environ mi-hauteur du réservoir 4. Toutefois, il est à remarquer que la hauteur à laquelle s'étend l'extrémité libre 313 de l'élément 31 peut fortement varier. En effet, l'élément 31 peut être une tige très restreinte ne dépassant pas la hauteur de l'embase 2, ou au contraire, peut être une tige très grande venant quasiment au contact du fond du réservoir 4. L'organe d'obturation 3 est réalisé avantageusement monobloc avec l'embase 2. Comme représenté sur les figures la et lb, l'organe d'obturation 3, en sortie de moule, est relié par un pont de matière annulaire 23 à l'embase 2. Plus précisément, le pont de matière 23 rehe la surface de jonction 310 de l'élément 31 à un bord périphérique 200 formé par le plateau radial 20. Cette configuration a pour avantage de garantir une sécurité de premier usage, le produit contenu dans le réservoir 4 ne pouvant être extrait avant rupture du pont de matière 23. Ce pont de matière, lors de la première utilisation, devra donc être rompu. Cette rupture est effectuée par un mouvement de traction, de poussée ou de rotation de l'organe d'obturation 3 par rapport à l'embase. Une telle rupture a alors pour effet d'aboutir à la création d'un orifice 24 délimité par le bord périphérique 200 du plateau radial 20. L'organe d'obturation 3 peut alors être librement extrait du réservoir 4 et de l'embase 2. Cette configuration donne ainsi lieu à un organe d'obturation 3 en position ouverte compatible avec le prélèvement et l'application de produit. Il est à noter que l'orifice 24 est avantageusement ménagé au centre du plateau radial 20 et que cet orifice présente toutes formes appropriées : circulaire, oblong, elliptique etc. Toutefois, la dimension de l'orifice 24 est avantageusement telle que du produit fluide sera retenu par capillarité au niveau de l'orifice si le distributeur est penché voire retourné. Ainsi, cette caractéristique fait que l'embase 2 elle-même peut être utilisée comme élément d'application. Pour ce faire, l'orifice 24 présentera avantageusement un diamètre restreint de l'ordre de 2 à 6 mm et de préférence de l'ordre de 3 à 4 mm. II est à noter que le bord périphérique formant l'orifice sert initialement de point d'attache pour le pont de matière cassante et ensuite de zone annulaire d'étanchéité en coopération la surface d'étanchéité 312 de l'organe d'obturation. D'autre part, il est à noter que l'élément 31 pourrait ne pas servir au prélèvement et à l'application mais pourrait être utilisé uniquement en tant que tige de guidage destinée à faciliter la remise en place de l'organe d'obturation une fois la distribution terminée. En effet, lorsque la distribution est terminée, l'organe d'obturation 3 est replacé de telle sorte à obturer l'orifice 24. L'élément 31 facilite bien entendu ce repositionnement puisqu'il suffit de lâcher l'élément 31 au niveau de l'orifice 24 pour guider l'organe d'obturation par rapport à l'embase. L'organe d'obturation peut être remis en place. L'organe d'obturation peut alors définir une position fermée de refermeture telle que représentée sur les figures 2a et 2b. Cette position permet à l'organe d'obturation 3 d'être fermement maintenu sur l'embase 2. Pour ce faire, un système d'encliquetage est prévu. Ce système d'encliquetage met en œuvre une coopération entre le bord périphérique 200 de l'embase 2 et le cordon d'encliquetage 311 de l'élément 31. Cette coopération a lieu suite à une pression de l'organe d'obturation suffisamment forte pour que le bord périphérique 200 franchisse le cordon d'encliquetage 311. Une fois le cordon d'encliquetage 311 franchi, le bord périphérique 200 retenu par le cordon d'encliquetage 311 maintient l'organe d'obturation en position fermée de refermeture. Dans cette position, le bord périphérique 200 est alors en prise étanche avec la surface d'étanchéité 312 de l'élément 31 évitant ainsi toutes possibilités de fuite de produit entre l'élément 31 et l'embase 2.303a and 303b also located opposite. The edges 301 and the faces 303a and 303b thus form four sides opening onto a basal wall 302. As visible in FIG. 3 showing a profile distributor, the faces 303a and 303b extend from the top 300 to the basal wall 302 by being arranged on either side of the edges 301. These faces 303a and 303b have a curved shape and more particularly concave. The top 300 having a width less than the basal wall 302, the faces 303a and 303b therefore diverge more significantly at the level of the basal wall 302. These faces 303a and 303b in this preferred embodiment thus form two opposite faces in image mirror from a plane of symmetry A axially passing through the edges 301 of the shutter member 3. This embodiment is particularly advantageous, facilitating the handling of the shutter member 3 and its removal from the reservoir 4. The removal and / or application element 31 has the function of allowing the withdrawal of a given quantity of fluid product. The element 31 has a generally cylindrical configuration which is advantageously frustoconical, but this configuration is not limiting, many forms being able to be envisaged. The section of the element 31 is preferably regularly decreasing from the gripping element. The removal element 31 also has the function of facilitating the replacement of the closure member on the base. The element 31 advantageously comprises a free lower end 313, a junction surface 310, a latching bead 311 and a sealing surface 312. The free lower end 313 may include means for retaining fluid. These retention means may be several longitudinal groove (s) 3130 as shown in FIG. 4 or a slot 3131, as shown in FIG. 5, passing through on either side of the lower rextriment 313. However d 'other embodiments of means guaranteeing the retention of fluid can be envisaged such as for example a retention loop, a brush, a pad or a flexible tip. The joining surface 310 is a circular cylindrical surface extending around the periphery of the element 31. The snap-on bead 311 forms an annular bead projecting radially from the element 31. The sealing surface 312 corresponds as for it also to a circular cylindrical surface extending on the periphery of the element 31. Advantageously, the junction surface 310 and the sealing surface 312 are located on the one hand, on the other of the snap-on bead 311 In the embodiment shown in the different figures, the junction surface 310 is located between the free lower end 313 of the element 31 and the snap-on bead 311 while the sealing surface 312 is located between the bead d 'snap 312 and the basal wall 42 of the gripping element. The sealing surface 312 thus defines a sealed snap-in housing between the bead 311 and the basal wall 302. The element 31 advantageously extends from the basal wall 302 through the base 2 to about mid-height. of the reservoir 4. However, it should be noted that the height at which the free end 313 of the element 31 extends can vary greatly. Indeed, the element 31 can be a very restricted rod not exceeding the height of the base 2, or on the contrary, can be a very large rod coming almost into contact with the bottom of the tank 4. The shutter member 3 is advantageously made in one piece with the base 2. As shown in FIGS. 1a and 1b, the shutter member 3, at the outlet of the mold, is connected by a bridge of annular material 23 to 1 'base 2. More specifically, the material bridge 23 rehe the junction surface 310 of the element 31 at a peripheral edge 200 formed by the radial plate 20. This configuration has the advantage of guaranteeing first-use security, the product contained in the reservoir 4 which cannot be extracted before breaking of the material bridge 23. This material bridge, during the first use, must therefore be broken. This rupture is effected by a pulling, pushing or rotating movement of the shutter member 3 relative to the base. Such a rupture then has the effect of creating a hole 24 defined by the peripheral edge 200 of the radial plate 20. The shutter member 3 can then be freely extracted from the reservoir 4 and from the base 2 This configuration thus gives rise to a closure member 3 in the open position compatible with the removal and application of product. It should be noted that the orifice 24 is advantageously provided in the center of the radial plate 20 and that this orifice has all the appropriate shapes: circular, oblong, elliptical, etc. However, the dimension of the orifice 24 is advantageously such that the fluid product will be retained by capillarity at the orifice if the dispenser is tilted or even turned over. Thus, this characteristic means that the base 2 itself can be used as an application element. To do this, the orifice 24 will advantageously have a restricted diameter of the order of 2 to 6 mm and preferably of the order of 3 to 4 mm. It should be noted that the peripheral edge forming the orifice initially serves as an attachment point for the brittle material bridge and then as an annular sealing zone in cooperation with the sealing surface 312 of the shutter member. On the other hand, it should be noted that the element 31 could not be used for sampling and application but could be used only as a guide rod intended to facilitate the replacement of the obturation member. once the distribution is complete. Indeed, when the distribution is finished, the shutter member 3 is replaced so as to close the orifice 24. The element 31 naturally facilitates this repositioning since it suffices to let go of the element 31 at the orifice 24 to guide the organ shutter in relation to the base. The obturation member can be replaced. The shutter member can then define a closed reclosing position as shown in Figures 2a and 2b. This position allows the shutter member 3 to be firmly held on the base 2. To do this, a latching system is provided. This latching system implements cooperation between the peripheral edge 200 of the base 2 and the latching cord 311 of the element 31. This cooperation takes place following a pressure from the shutter member that is sufficiently strong. so that the peripheral edge 200 crosses the latching cord 311. Once the latching cord 311 is crossed, the peripheral edge 200 retained by the latching cord 311 keeps the shutter member in the closed reclosing position. In this position, the peripheral edge 200 is then in leaktight engagement with the sealing surface 312 of the element 31, thus avoiding any possibility of product leakage between the element 31 and the base 2.
-s.; En outre, il est à noter qu'il est possible dans cette, position d'éviter tout jeu ou déplacement axial relatif entre l'organe d'obturation 3 et l'embase 2. En effet, la paroi basale 302 de l'élément de préhension située en position initiale et en position ouverte à distance du plateau radial 20 peut venir en butée contre le plateau radial suite au franchissement du cordon d'encliquetage 311 en position fermée de fermeture. Le jeu entre l'organe d'obturation 3 et l'embase 2 pourra alors être limité si le bord périphérique 200 du plateau radial 20 présente une hauteur sensiblement égale à la hauteur de la surface d'étanchéité 312. La figure 5 montre une autre configuration pour l'élément de préhension 30. Les faces 303a et b sont moins concaves, mais présentent une partie supérieure favorisant la préhension en vue d'une traction pour retirer l'organe d'obturation de l'orifice de l'embase. Enfin, lorsque l'utilisateur souhaitera repasser en position ouverte, une simple traction exercée sur l'organe d'obturation 3 permettra au bord périphérique 200 de passer le cordon d'encliquetage 311 et ainsi d'extraire l'élément 31. Bien que la présente invention ait été décrite en référence à un mode de réalisation particulier de celle-ci, il est entendu qu'elle n'est pas limitée par les exemples décrits ci-dessus. Au contraire, un homme du métier pourrait y apporter toute modification utile sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention telle que définie dans les revendications annexées. -s .; In addition, it should be noted that it is possible in this position to avoid any play or relative axial displacement between the shutter member 3 and the base 2. In fact, the basal wall 302 of the element gripping located in the initial position and in the open position at a distance from the radial plate 20 can come into abutment against the radial plate following the crossing of the latching cord 311 in the closed closed position. The clearance between the closure member 3 and the base 2 can then be limited if the peripheral edge 200 of the radial plate 20 has a height substantially equal to the height of the sealing surface 312. FIG. 5 shows another configuration for the gripping element 30. The faces 303a and b are less concave, but have an upper part favoring gripping with a view to pulling in order to remove the shutter member from the orifice of the base. Finally, when the user wishes to return to the open position, a simple pull exerted on the closure member 3 will allow the edge peripheral 200 to pass the latching cord 311 and thus to extract the element 31. Although the present invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment thereof, it is understood that it is not not limited by the examples described above. On the contrary, a person skilled in the art could make any useful modification to it without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
