Description

ACCROCHAGE MECANIQUE DE DEUX PIECES D'UN CONTENEUR DE  MECHANICAL ATTACHMENT OF TWO PIECES OF A CONTAINER OF
PRODUIT COSMETIQUE  COSMETIC PRODUCT
La présente demande concerne un conteneur (ou étui) d'un produit cosmétique ou hygiénique. The present application relates to a container (or case) of a cosmetic or hygienic product.
Elle concerne notamment un conteneur de produit cosmétique, ou hygiénique, comportant un élément d'application qui est engagé, en dehors des périodes d'application du produit, dans un élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection.  It relates in particular to a cosmetic product container, or hygienic, comprising an application element which is engaged, outside the periods of application of the product, in a tubular storage and protection element.
Il existe des conteneurs dans lesquels l'élément tubulaire, par exemple, comporte deux pièces solidarisées l'une à l'autre.  There are containers in which the tubular element, for example, comprises two pieces joined to one another.
Pour cela, les deux pièces sont souvent accrochées l'une à l'autre grâce à de la colle. Un tel conteneur est par exemple décrit dans la demande de brevet WO2006120336, il s'agit là d'un conteneur de rouge à lèvres.  For this, the two pieces are often hooked to one another with glue. Such a container is for example described in the patent application WO2006120336, this is a container of lipstick.
Des difficultés liées à une utilisation de colle apparaissent notamment lorsque les deux pièces sont réalisées en des matériaux différents, par exemple l'une en plastique et l'autre en métal.  Difficulties related to the use of glue appear especially when the two parts are made of different materials, for example one plastic and the other metal.
Dans ce cas, il est délicat de définir une colle qui garantisse une bonne adhésion avec les deux matériaux différents simultanément.  In this case, it is difficult to define an adhesive that guarantees good adhesion with the two different materials simultaneously.
Il est alors intéressant de pouvoir réaliser un accrochage mécanique, ce qui permet une meilleure gestion de la tenue mécanique dans le temps et un procédé de montage simplifié.  It is then interesting to be able to achieve a mechanical attachment, which allows a better management of the mechanical strength over time and a simplified assembly process.
On connaît par exemple la demande de brevet internationale WO2010043802 ou la demande de brevet internationale WO201 1077042, cette dernière décrivant, notamment, un conteneur (ou étui) de rouge à lèvres dont l'élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection comporte un capot (ou capuchon) et une cage engagée en partie basse du capot pour en constituer le fond et qui est fixée au capot au moyen d'agrafes latérales.  For example, the international patent application WO2010043802 or the international patent application WO201 1077042 is known, the latter describing, in particular, a container (or case) of lipstick whose tubular storage and protection element comprises a cover (or cap) and a cage engaged in the lower part of the cover to form the bottom and which is fixed to the cover by means of lateral clips.
Ceci est intéressant pour éviter une perte de volume au fond de l'élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection, mais l'accrochage de la cage au capot requiert un ajout d'éléments tiers, à savoir les agrafes. En outre, avec les agrafes, il subsiste un jeu résiduel. This is interesting to avoid a loss of volume at the bottom of the tubular storage and protection element, but the cage attachment to the hood requires an addition of third-party elements, namely the staples. In addition, with the staples, there is a residual clearance.
L'objet de la présente demande vise à atténuer au moins en partie les inconvénients précités, menant en outre à d'autres avantages.  The purpose of this application is to at least partially mitigate the aforementioned drawbacks, leading in addition to other advantages.
A cet effet, est proposé selon un premier aspect, un conteneur de produit cosmétique comportant une pièce extérieure, qui comporte un fond et une paroi latérale s'étendant à partir du fond, et une pièce intérieure, qui comporte un fond et une paroi latérale s'étendant à partir du fond, la pièce intérieure étant insérée et fixée dans la pièce extérieure, caractérisé en ce que le fond de la pièce extérieure comporte une languette en forme de pont et en ce que le fond de la pièce intérieure comporte une griffe, la griffe étant engagée sous la languette, fixant la pièce intérieure dans la pièce extérieure.  For this purpose, there is provided in a first aspect, a cosmetic product container having an outer part, which has a bottom and a side wall extending from the bottom, and an inner part, which has a bottom and a side wall. extending from the bottom, the inner part being inserted and fixed in the outer part, characterized in that the bottom of the outer part comprises a bridge-shaped tongue and in that the bottom of the inner part comprises a claw , the claw being engaged under the tongue, fixing the inner part in the outer part.
La pièce intérieure et la pièce extérieure sont ainsi accrochées mécaniquement l'une à l'autre de manière indémontable, c'est-à-dire qu'elles ne peuvent être séparées l'une de l'autre que très difficilement, éventuellement en faisant appel à des outils, ce qui endommagerait les pièces.  The inner part and the outer part are thus mechanically hooked to each other in a non-removable manner, that is to say that they can be separated from each other only with great difficulty, possibly by making tools, which would damage the parts.
Il est en outre très commode d'assembler deux pièces quel que soit leur matériau constitutif. L'une peut par exemple être en plastique, l'autre en métal.  It is also very convenient to assemble two parts regardless of their constituent material. One can for example be plastic, the other metal.
Un encombrement lié au système d'accrochage entre les deux pièces est aussi très réduit. De plus, il y a un minimum de volume perdu, voire aucun volume perdu, entre la pièce extérieure et la pièce intérieure.  A congestion linked to the fastening system between the two parts is also very small. In addition, there is a minimum of lost volume, or even lost volume, between the outer part and the inner part.
Chaque pièce comporte ici un fond et une paroi qui s'étend d'un côté du fond. Le côté du fond depuis lequel s'étend la paroi définit alors un intérieur de la pièce. En dehors, il s'agit d'un extérieur de la pièce.  Each piece here has a bottom and a wall that extends from one side of the bottom. The bottom side from which the wall extends then defines an interior of the room. Outside, it is an outside of the room.
De préférence, la paroi latérale de la pièce extérieure est sensiblement cylindrique. Elle s'étend par exemple depuis tout un pourtour du fond avec une section constante, qui a sensiblement la même forme que le fond. En outre, elle est de préférence pleine.  Preferably, the side wall of the outer piece is substantially cylindrical. For example, it extends from all around the bottom with a constant section, which has substantially the same shape as the bottom. In addition, it is preferably full.
La paroi latérale de la pièce intérieure est par exemple ajourée par endroit. Voire par exemple, la paroi latérale de la pièce intérieure comporte un montant, ou davantage. Selon un exemple de réalisation, le fond de la pièce intérieure est sensiblement carré, et un montant s'étend depuis un coin du fond. The side wall of the inner part is for example perforated in places. For example, the side wall of the inner part has a amount, or more. According to an exemplary embodiment, the bottom of the inner part is substantially square, and an amount extends from a corner of the bottom.
Selon un exemple de réalisation intéressant, le fond de la pièce extérieure et le fond de la pièce intérieure ont la même forme. Le fond de la pièce intérieure est par exemple homothétiquement plus petit que le fond de la pièce extérieure.  According to an interesting embodiment, the bottom of the outer piece and the bottom of the inner piece have the same shape. The bottom of the inner part is for example homothetically smaller than the bottom of the outer part.
De plus, il est possiblement avantageux qu'une surface extérieure de la paroi latérale de la pièce intérieure soit tangente à une surface intérieure de la paroi latérale de la pièce extérieure.  In addition, it is possibly advantageous that an outer surface of the side wall of the inner piece is tangent to an inner surface of the side wall of the outer piece.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la languette est possiblement formée par emboutissage d'un segment du fond de la pièce extérieure délimité par deux fentes parallèles.  According to an exemplary embodiment, the tongue is possibly formed by stamping a segment of the bottom of the outer part delimited by two parallel slots.
La pièce extérieure est par exemple en métal. L'emboutissage du fond est ainsi particulièrement facile pour former la languette.  The outer part is for example metal. Stamping the bottom is thus particularly easy to form the tongue.
La languette est possiblement réalisée par emboutissage dans une opération de reprise ou par tout autre moyen approprié.  The tongue is possibly made by stamping in a recovery operation or by any other appropriate means.
Par exemple, la languette comporte une partie médiane, en relief d'un côté intérieur du fond de la pièce extérieure, et deux arches de liaison, de part et d'autre de la partie médiane, reliant la partie médiane au fond de la pièce extérieure. Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie médiane est une partie sensiblement plane et parallèle au fond de la pièce extérieure. Ceci permet de réduire l'encombrement d'une languette tout en maximisant les possibilités d'insertion facile d'une griffe sous la languette.  For example, the tongue has a medial portion, embossed on an inner side of the bottom of the outer piece, and two connecting arches, on either side of the middle portion, connecting the middle part to the bottom of the piece exterior. According to an exemplary embodiment, the median portion is a substantially flat portion and parallel to the bottom of the outer piece. This reduces the size of a tab while maximizing the possibilities of easy insertion of a claw under the tongue.
Selon un exemple de réalisation pratique, la griffe comporte un biseau configuré pour faciliter une insertion de la griffe sous la languette.  According to an exemplary practical embodiment, the claw comprises a bevel configured to facilitate insertion of the claw under the tongue.
Selon un exemple privilégié de réalisation, le fond de la pièce intérieure comporte au moins une ouverture principale traversée par au moins une partie de la languette et la griffe est formée sur un bord de l'ouverture principale en s'étendant dans l'ouverture principale et est engagée sous la partie de la languette qui traverse l'ouverture principale. Si la languette comporte une partie plane, la languette dépasse alors le moins possible du fond de la pièce intérieure. Selon un autre exemple de réalisation particulièrement intéressant, la griffe est formée dans une épaisseur du fond de la pièce intérieure et forme un décrochement en saillie s'étendant dans l'ouverture principale depuis un bord de celle-ci. According to a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the inner part has at least one main opening through which at least a portion of the tongue and the claw is formed on an edge of the main opening extending into the main opening and is engaged under the portion of the tongue that passes through the main opening. If the tongue has a flat part, the tongue then protrudes as little as possible from the bottom of the inner part. According to another particularly interesting embodiment, the claw is formed in a thickness of the bottom of the inner part and forms a protruding recess extending in the main opening from an edge thereof.
Ceci a l'avantage de réduire au mieux l'encombrement induit par l'accrochage entre la pièce extérieure et la pièce intérieure.  This has the advantage of reducing at best the clutter induced by the hooking between the outer part and the inner part.
Par exemple, la griffe comporte un plan d'appui, destiné à être en butée sous une languette correspondante, et un biseau configuré pour faciliter une insertion de la griffe sous la languette correspondante. Le cas échéant, le plan d'appui est avantageusement formé dans le prolongement d'une surface du fond du côté intérieur de la pièce intérieure, en s'étendant dans l'ouverture principale depuis un bord de celle-ci. Le biseau, quant à lui, comporte avantageusement une surface plane en biais reliant un bord d'extrémité libre du plan d'appui au bord de l'ouverture principale, voire optionnellement jusqu'à une surface du fond du côté extérieur de la pièce intérieure.  For example, the claw has a support plane, intended to abut under a corresponding tongue, and a bevel configured to facilitate insertion of the claw under the corresponding tongue. If appropriate, the support plane is advantageously formed in the extension of a bottom surface of the inner side of the inner part, extending into the main opening from an edge thereof. The bevel, for its part, advantageously comprises a plane flat surface connecting a free end edge of the support plane to the edge of the main opening, or optionally to a bottom surface of the outer side of the inner part. .
Autrement dit, la griffe est par exemple possiblement formée par un décrochement du contour de l'ouverture principale contenu entre un plan de la surface du côté extérieur et un plan de la surface du côté intérieur du fond de la pièce intérieure.  In other words, the claw is for example possibly formed by a recess of the contour of the main opening contained between a plane of the surface of the outer side and a plane of the surface of the inner side of the bottom of the inner part.
Selon encore un autre exemple de réalisation intéressant, le fond de la pièce intérieure comporte au moins une ouverture secondaire définissant entre elle et l'ouverture principale une branche en forme de baguette et la griffe est formée sur la branche.  According to yet another interesting embodiment, the bottom of the inner part comprises at least one secondary opening defining between it and the main opening a rod-shaped branch and the claw is formed on the branch.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la pièce intérieure comporte deux branches qui définissent entre elles l'ouverture principale qui est traversée par au moins une partie d'une languette.  According to an exemplary embodiment, the inner part has two branches which define between them the main opening which is traversed by at least a portion of a tongue.
En d'autres termes, le fond de la pièce intérieure comporte une deuxième ouverture secondaire qui définit, avec l'ouverture principale, une deuxième branche.  In other words, the bottom of the inner part has a second secondary opening which defines, with the main opening, a second branch.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, les deux branches sont sensiblement parallèles l'une à l'autre. De plus, elles sont par exemple sensiblement parallèles à la languette. Selon un autre exemple pratique, la pièce intérieure comporte deux griffes formées sur un bord de l'ouverture principale et chaque griffe est engagée sous la partie de la languette qui traverse l'ouverture principale et de part et d'autre de la languette. According to an exemplary embodiment, the two branches are substantially parallel to each other. In addition, they are for example substantially parallel to the tongue. According to another practical example, the inner part has two claws formed on an edge of the main opening and each claw is engaged under the portion of the tongue which passes through the main opening and on either side of the tongue.
Les deux griffes sont de préférence en vis-à-vis.  The two claws are preferably vis-à-vis.
Par exemple, une griffe s'étend depuis chaque branche dans l'ouverture principale de sorte à s'engager de part et d'autre de la languette.  For example, a claw extends from each branch in the main opening so as to engage on both sides of the tongue.
Selon un exemple de réalisation privilégié, le fond de la pièce extérieure comporte deux languettes. Et par exemple, les deux languettes sont sensiblement identiques et parallèles l'une à l'autre.  According to a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the outer part has two tongues. And for example, the two tabs are substantially identical and parallel to each other.
Le cas échéant, la pièce intérieure comporte au moins une griffe engagée sous chacune des languettes, voire deux griffes par languette. Il est alors intéressant que les deux griffes d'une languette soient engagées sous la languette, de part et d'autre de la languette. Et selon un exemple privilégié, chaque griffe est formée sur une branche.  Where appropriate, the inner part comprises at least one claw engaged under each of the tongues, or two claws per tongue. It is then interesting that the two claws of a tongue are engaged under the tongue, on both sides of the tongue. And according to a special example, each claw is formed on a branch.
Ainsi, par exemple, la pièce intérieure comporte deux paires de branches, c'est-à-dire quatre branches au total.  Thus, for example, the inner part has two pairs of branches, that is to say four branches in total.
Ce mode de construction avec quatre branches et quatre griffes assure encore mieux un assemblage indémontable. En effet pour décrocher la pièce intérieure, il faudrait écarter simultanément les quatre griffes les unes des autres, ce qui est alors très difficile, voire quasiment impossible, notamment sans requérir à différents outils.  This method of construction with four branches and four claws ensures even better unmountable assembly. Indeed, to unhook the inner part, it should simultaneously remove the four claws from each other, which is then very difficult, if not almost impossible, including without requiring different tools.
Par exemple, le conteneur comporte un écarteur positionné entre le fond de la pièce intérieure et le fond de la pièce extérieure configuré pour rattraper un jeu entre la griffe et la languette sous laquelle la griffe est engagée.  For example, the container has a spacer positioned between the bottom of the inner part and the bottom of the outer part configured to catch a clearance between the claw and the tongue under which the claw is engaged.
Un tel écarteur est par exemple un plot ou une lame ressort. Il est par exemple solidaire d'un côté extérieur du fond de la pièce intérieure.  Such a spacer is for example a stud or a spring blade. It is for example integral with an outer side of the bottom of the inner room.
Selon un exemple intéressant si la pièce intérieure comporte une paroi formée de trois montants disposés en trois coins du fond de forme sensiblement carrée, l'écarteur est avantageusement situé vers le coin du fond qui est dépourvu de montant, de façon à profiter d'une plus grande élasticité du fond dans cette zone. Selon un autre exemple, le conteneur comporte deux écarteurs qui sont disposés en deux points opposés, par exemple selon une diagonale du fond de la pièce intérieure si celle-ci est par exemple sensiblement carrée. According to an interesting example if the inner part comprises a wall formed of three uprights arranged in three corners of the substantially square bottom, the spacer is advantageously located towards the bottom corner which is devoid of amount, so as to take advantage of a greater elasticity of the bottom in this area. According to another example, the container comprises two spacers which are arranged at two opposite points, for example along a diagonal of the bottom of the inner part if it is for example substantially square.
Ainsi, selon un exemple intéressant de réalisation, le fond de la pièce intérieure est distant du fond de la pièce extérieure d'une distance sensiblement égale aux jeux de montage ou d'un écartement induit par l'écarteur. Autrement dit, sans prendre en considération de potentiels jeux de montage ou l'écartement induit par l'écarteur, le fond de la pièce intérieure est sensiblement tangent au fond de la pièce extérieure.  Thus, according to an interesting embodiment, the bottom of the inner part is distant from the bottom of the outer part by a distance substantially equal to the mounting clearance or spacing induced by the spacer. In other words, without taking into consideration potential mounting clearance or spacing induced by the spacer, the bottom of the inner part is substantially tangent to the bottom of the outer part.
Selon un mode de mise en œuvre privilégié, un tel conteneur est par exemple un conteneur d'un produit liquide ou pâteux, par exemple un conteneur de brillant à lèvre, souvent dénommé « gloss », ou un conteneur de mascara, ou encore un étui de fard à lèvres, notamment un étui de rouge à lèvres dont le raisin est formé d'un produit de maquillage dont la couleur peut ne pas être une nuance de rouge ou un fard hygiénique, comme un baume à lèvres, notamment pour la protection des lèvres vis-à-vis de l'agressivité de l'environnement.  According to a preferred mode of implementation, such a container is for example a container of a liquid or pasty product, for example a lip gloss container, often called "gloss", or a container of mascara, or a case lipstick, in particular a lipstick case whose grape is formed of a makeup product whose color may not be a shade of red or a hygienic makeup, such as a lip balm, especially for the protection of the vis-à-vis the aggressiveness of the environment.
Le cas échéant, le conteneur comporte un élément d'application et un élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection qui comporte un fourreau et une cage, le fourreau formant la pièce extérieure et la cage formant la pièce intérieure.  Where appropriate, the container comprises an applicator element and a tubular storage and protection element which comprises a sheath and a cage, the sheath forming the outer part and the cage forming the inner part.
L'élément d'application est parfois appelé mécanisme.  The application element is sometimes called a mechanism.
Par ailleurs, le corps tubulaire et l'élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection peuvent avoir une section circulaire ou non.  Furthermore, the tubular body and the tubular storage and protection element may have a circular section or not.
Ainsi, par exemple, la pièce intérieure pourrait être un simple élément de garniture intérieure de la pièce extérieure, comme dans la demande de brevet EP2253241 par exemple (voir par exemple la figure 13 illustrant la pièce extérieure 19 et la pièce intérieure 18). Il pourrait en être de même pour le bouchon ou le capot d'un conteneur. Ou encore, la pièce intérieure pourrait être une réserve de produit cosmétique, comme illustré dans la demande de brevet FR29061 14 ou encore EP1060686.  Thus, for example, the inner part could be a simple inner lining element of the outer part, as in the patent application EP2253241 for example (see for example Figure 13 illustrating the outer part 19 and the inner part 18). It could be the same for the cap or bonnet of a container. Or, the inner part could be a stock of cosmetic product, as shown in the patent application FR29061 14 or EP1060686.
Ou selon un autre exemple, si le conteneur est un rouge à lèvre, l'élément d'application comporte une base, un corps tubulaire attelé axialement à la base et un support portant un raisin de rouge à lèvres configuré pour se déplacer axialement dans le corps tubulaire par un mouvement relatif de pivotement entre le corps tubulaire et la base en sorte de faire sortir le raisin ou au contraire de l'escamoter dans le corps tubulaire, la base et le corps tubulaire coopérant avec le fourreau pour enfermer et protéger le raisin lorsque l'utilisateur n'en a pas besoin. Or according to another example, if the container is a lipstick, the application element comprises a base, a tubular body axially coupled at the base and a support carrying a lipstick grape configured to move axially in the tubular body by a relative pivotal movement between the tubular body and the base so as to remove the grape or on the contrary to retract it in the tubular body, the base and the tubular body cooperating with the sheath to enclose and protect the grape when the user does not need it.
L'invention, selon un exemple de réalisation, sera bien comprise et ses avantages apparaîtront mieux à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit, donnée à titre indicatif et nullement limitatif, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :  The invention, according to an exemplary embodiment, will be better understood and its advantages will appear better on reading the detailed description which follows, given for information only and in no way limitative, with reference to the appended drawings in which:

Les éléments identiques représentés sur les figures précitées sont identifiés par des références numériques identiques.  The identical elements shown in the above figures are identified by identical reference numerals.
Dans le cadre de la présente description, une pièce extérieure 1 telle que représentée sur la figure 1 est par exemple un fourreau d'un conteneur de produit cosmétique et une pièce intérieure 2 telle que représentée sur la figure 2 est par exemple une cage. Mais bien entendu, il pourrait s'agir de tout type de conteneur ou étui dont la pièce intérieure est insérée et fixée dans la pièce extérieure.  In the context of the present description, an outer part 1 as shown in Figure 1 is for example a sheath of a cosmetic product container and an inner part 2 as shown in Figure 2 is for example a cage. But of course, it could be any type of container or case whose inner part is inserted and fixed in the outer room.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation de la figure 1 , la pièce extérieure 1 comporte un fond 1 1 et une paroi latérale 10 qui s'étend du fond 1 1 , sensiblement orthogonalement. Un côté du fond 1 1 depuis lequel s'étend la paroi latérale 1 0 définit ainsi un intérieur de la pièce extérieure. In the embodiment of Figure 1, the outer part 1 comprises a bottom 1 1 and a side wall 10 which extends from the bottom 1 1, substantially orthogonally. A side of the bottom 1 1 from which extends the side wall 1 0 thus defines an interior of the outer part.
La paroi latérale 10 comporte une surface intérieure 13 (visible figures 3 à 5), vers l'intérieur de la pièce extérieure 1 , et une surface extérieure 14, opposée à la surface intérieure 13, qui s'étend ici dans un prolongement d'un pourtour 12 du fond 1 1 . La surface extérieure 14 est par exemple une surface visible d'un produit. Elle est par exemple laquée et noire.  The side wall 10 has an inner surface 13 (visible in FIGS. 3 to 5), towards the inside of the outer part 1, and an outer surface 14, opposite to the inner surface 13, which extends here in an extension of a periphery 12 of the bottom 1 1. The outer surface 14 is for example a visible surface of a product. It is for example lacquered and black.
La paroi latérale 10 forme sensiblement un cylindre droit de section constante et égale à une forme définie par le pourtour 1 2 du fond 1 1 .  The side wall 10 substantially forms a right cylinder of constant section and equal to a shape defined by the periphery 1 2 bottom 1 1.
Elle est par exemple moulée en plastique ou en métal, ou emboutie. It is for example molded plastic or metal, or stamped.
Le fond 1 1 a ici une forme de carré bombé vers l'extérieur. Il pourrait toutefois avoir une forme circulaire ou autre. The bottom 1 1 here has a form of curved square to the outside. It could however have a circular shape or other.
Le fond 1 1 comporte ici deux languettes 1 5, qui sont sensiblement identiques et parallèles l'une à l'autre.  The bottom 1 1 here comprises two tongues 1 5, which are substantially identical and parallel to each other.
Chaque languette 15 a ici une forme de pont formée en relief à l'intérieur de la pièce extérieure 1 . En d'autres termes, chaque languette 1 5 est ici une lame courbée qui définit un passage entre elle et le fond 1 1 , du côté intérieur du fond 1 1 .  Each tongue 15 here has a bridge shape formed in relief inside the outer part 1. In other words, each tongue 1 5 is here a curved blade which defines a passage between it and the bottom 1 1, the inner side of the bottom 1 1.
Ici, chaque languette 1 5 comporte une partie médiane 16, en relief d'un côté intérieur du fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 , et deux arches de liaison 17, de part et d'autre de la partie médiane 16, reliant la partie médiane 1 6 au fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 . De plus, la partie médiane 1 6 est ici sensiblement plane et parallèle au fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 .  Here, each tongue 1 5 comprises a median part 16, in relief of an inner side of the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1, and two connecting arches 17, on either side of the central part 16, connecting the middle part 1 6 at the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1. In addition, the middle part 1 6 is here substantially flat and parallel to the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1.
Chaque languette 15 comporte alors deux bords libres 18, qui sont ici sensiblement parallèles l'un à l'autre, et deux bords de liaison 19 qui joignent les deux bords libres 18 à chaque bout.  Each tongue 15 then has two free edges 18, which are here substantially parallel to one another, and two connecting edges 19 which join the two free edges 18 at each end.
Le fond 1 1 comporte en outre deux découpes en forme de rectangle, avec deux grands côtés et deux petits côtés, avec chacune des découpes qui est enjambée par une languette 15 qui rejoint les deux petits côtés, formant ainsi les deux bords de liaison 19.  The bottom 1 1 further comprises two cutouts in the shape of a rectangle, with two long sides and two short sides, with each of the cuts which is spanned by a tongue 15 which joins the two short sides, thus forming the two connecting edges 19.
Les deux découpes en forme de rectangle sont ici côte à côte selon leurs grands côtés et sont disposées selon une diagonale du fond 1 1 . Par exemple, chaque languette 1 5 est réalisée en découpant deux fentes, par exemple parallèles et de même longueur, dans le fond 1 1 puis en emboutissant la partie du fond entre les deux fentes. Dans ce cas, les fentes formeraient par exemple les deux grands côtés du rectangle correspondant et les bords libres 18 de la languette 15 correspondante. The two cutouts in the form of rectangle are here side by side along their long sides and are arranged along a diagonal bottom 1 1. For example, each tongue 1 5 is made by cutting two slots, for example parallel and of the same length, in the bottom 1 1 and then stamping the bottom portion between the two slots. In this case, the slots would form for example the two long sides of the corresponding rectangle and the free edges 18 of the corresponding tab 15.
Selon un autre mode de construction, notamment dans le cas où la pièce extérieure est en matière plastique, les languettes sont réalisées par moulage lors de l'injection.  According to another embodiment, especially in the case where the outer part is plastic, the tongues are made by molding during injection.
Selon un exemple non représenté, le fond 1 1 pourrait ne comprendre qu'une seule languette 15. Toutefois, la présence de deux languettes permet d'améliorer la stabilité et la robustesse de l'assemblage avec la pièce intérieure 2.  According to an example not shown, the bottom 1 1 could comprise only one tongue 15. However, the presence of two tongues improves the stability and robustness of the assembly with the inner part 2.
La figure 2 présente une pièce intérieure 2 qui est par exemple une cage. Une telle cage est par exemple décrite dans la demande de brevet WO2010043802 pour un conteneur de mascara, ou encore WO201 1077042 pour un conteneur de rouge à lèvres.  Figure 2 shows an inner part 2 which is for example a cage. Such a cage is for example described in the patent application WO2010043802 for a container of mascara, or WO201 1077042 for a container of lipstick.
La pièce intérieure 2 est par exemple moulée en plastique ou en métal.  The inner part 2 is for example molded of plastic or metal.
Ici, la pièce intérieure 2 comporte un fond 21 et une paroi latérale 20 qui s'étend du fond 21 , sensiblement orthogonalement.  Here, the inner part 2 comprises a bottom 21 and a side wall 20 which extends from the bottom 21, substantially orthogonally.
Un côté du fond 21 depuis lequel s'étend la paroi latérale 20 définit ainsi un intérieur de la pièce intérieure.  One side of the bottom 21 from which the side wall 20 extends thus defines an interior of the inner part.
Le fond 21 a ici une forme de carré bombé vers l'extérieur. Il pourrait toutefois avoir une forme circulaire. De manière générale, le fond 21 a une forme analogue à une section de la pièce extérieure 1 définie à l'intérieur de la paroi latérale 10 de sorte à pouvoir y être inséré en laissant un minimum de jeux latéraux, c'est-à-dire entre la paroi latérale de la pièce intérieure et la paroi latérale de pièce extérieure.  The bottom 21 here has a form of curved square to the outside. It could however have a circular shape. In general, the bottom 21 has a shape similar to a section of the outer part 1 defined inside the side wall 10 so as to be inserted there leaving a minimum of side clearances, that is to say say between the side wall of the inner room and the outer side wall.
La paroi latérale 20 s'étend ici dans un prolongement d'un pourtour 22 du fond 21 .  The side wall 20 extends here in an extension of a periphery 22 of the bottom 21.
A titre purement illustratif, il est représenté sur la figure 2 une paroi latéral 20 qui comporte trois montants 20a qui sont situés à trois des coins du fond 21 de forme sensiblement carrée, le quatrième coin étant dépourvu de montant à l'instar de la cage de la demande WO201 1077042 (bien entendu, ceci n'est pas limitatif et la pièce intérieure pourrait présenter quatre montants). By way of illustration only, there is shown in FIG. 2 a lateral wall 20 which comprises three uprights 20a which are situated at three of the corners of the bottom 21 of substantially square shape, the fourth corner being devoid of amount like the cage of the application WO201 1077042 (of course, this is not limiting and the inner part could have four amounts).
La paroi latérale 20 comporte une surface intérieure 23 (visible figures 3 à 5), vers l'intérieur de la pièce intérieure 2, et une surface extérieure 24, opposée à la surface intérieure 23, qui s'étend dans le prolongement du pourtour 22 du fond 21 et qui est tangente à la surface intérieure 13 de la paroi latérale 10 de la pièce extérieure 1 une fois les deux pièces assemblées.  The side wall 20 has an inner surface 23 (visible in FIGS. 3 to 5), towards the inside of the inner part 2, and an outer surface 24, opposite to the inner surface 23, which extends in the extension of the periphery 22. of the bottom 21 and which is tangent to the inner surface 13 of the side wall 10 of the outer part 1 once the two parts assembled.
Le fond 21 comporte ici deux ouvertures principales 25, en adéquation avec le fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 qui comporte deux languettes 15. Bien entendu, si le fond 1 1 ne comporte qu'une seule languette 15, une seule ouverture 25 serait suffisante.  The bottom 21 here comprises two main openings 25, in line with the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1 which has two tabs 15. Of course, if the bottom 1 1 has only one tab 15, a single opening 25 would be sufficient.
Chaque ouverture principale 25 a ici une forme sensiblement rectangulaire avec deux grands bords et deux petits bords dont les dimensions sont sensiblement égales à celles des languettes 15, voire ici des découpes en forme de rectangle correspondantes. Les deux ouvertures principales 25 sont disposées l'une à côté de l'autre, en considérant leurs grands bords, et selon une diagonale du fond 21 , conformément à la disposition des languettes 15 de la pièce extérieure 1 .  Each main aperture 25 here has a substantially rectangular shape with two large edges and two small edges whose dimensions are substantially equal to those of the tabs 15, or even here corresponding rectangular cutouts. The two main openings 25 are arranged next to one another, considering their large edges, and along a diagonal of the bottom 21, in accordance with the arrangement of the tongues 15 of the outer part 1.
Chaque ouverture principale 25 comporte ici deux griffes 26. Les deux griffes sont ici positionnées sur chacun des deux grands bords de l'ouverture principale 25 correspondante, sensiblement en leur milieu de sorte à s'insérer sous la partie médiane 16 de la languette 15 correspondante lorsque la pièce extérieure 1 et la pièce intérieure 2 sont assemblées.  Each main opening 25 here comprises two claws 26. The two claws are here positioned on each of the two large edges of the corresponding main opening 25, substantially in their middle so as to be inserted under the middle portion 16 of the corresponding tab 15 when the outer part 1 and the inner part 2 are assembled.
Ici, selon un exemple intéressant de réalisation de la présente invention, chaque griffe 26 est formée dans une épaisseur du fond 21 . Ceci a l'avantage de réduire au mieux l'encombrement induit par l'accrochage entre la pièce extérieure 1 et la pièce intérieure 2.  Here, according to an interesting embodiment of the present invention, each claw 26 is formed in a thickness of the bottom 21. This has the advantage of reducing at best the clutter induced by the hooking between the outer part 1 and the inner part 2.
Comme le montre mieux la figure 3, chaque griffe 26 comporte un plan d'appui 26a, destiné à être en butée sous une languette 15 correspondante, et un biseau 26b configuré pour faciliter une insertion de la griffe 26 sous la languette 15 correspondante. As best shown in Figure 3, each claw 26 has a bearing plane 26a, intended to abut under a tongue 15 corresponding, and a bevel 26b configured to facilitate insertion of the claw 26 under the corresponding tab 15.
Le plan d'appui 26a est ici formé dans le prolongement de la surface du côté intérieur du fond 21 , en s'étendant, dans l'ouverture principale 25, depuis un bord de celle-ci.  The support plane 26a is here formed in the extension of the surface of the inner side of the bottom 21, extending, in the main opening 25, from an edge thereof.
Le biseau 26b, quant à lui, comporte une surface plane en biais et relie un bord d'extrémité libre du plan d'appui 26a au bord de l'ouverture principale, et plus particulièrement comme ici, à la surface du côté extérieur du fond 21 .  The bevel 26b, meanwhile, has a flat surface obliquely and connects a free end edge of the support plane 26a to the edge of the main opening, and more particularly as here, on the surface of the outer side of the bottom 21.
Autrement dit, chaque griffe 26 est formée par un décrochement du contour de l'ouverture 25 en étant contenu entre un plan de la surface du côté extérieur et un plan de la surface du côté intérieur du fond 21 .  In other words, each claw 26 is formed by a recess of the contour of the opening 25 being contained between a plane of the surface of the outer side and a plane of the surface of the inner side of the bottom 21.
Pour procurer de l'élasticité aux griffes et notamment leur permettre de s'écarter lors du passage d'une languette 15, le fond 1 1 comporte des ouvertures secondaires 27, 27' positionnées derrière chacun des bords d'une ouverture principale 25 où se situe une griffe 26.  To provide resilience to the claws and in particular to allow them to deviate during the passage of a tongue 15, the bottom 1 1 has secondary openings 27, 27 'positioned behind each of the edges of a main opening 25 where locates a claw 26.
En d'autres termes, ici, une ouverture secondaire 27 est disposée entre une ouverture principale 25 et un coin du fond 21 , et une ouverture secondaire 27', centrale, est disposée entre les deux ouvertures principales 25. Il pourrait bien entendu y avoir deux ouvertures secondaires à la place de l'ouverture secondaire centrale 27', mais une seule ouverture est tout aussi efficace et plus facile à réaliser. Une seule ouverture centrale 27' est cependant de préférence plus large afin de pouvoir laisser suffisamment de recul à chacune des deux griffes 26 qui lui font dos lorsqu'elles reculent pour laisser passer une languette 15, comme ceci est par exemple illustré sur la figure 4.  In other words, here, a secondary opening 27 is disposed between a main opening 25 and a corner of the bottom 21, and a central secondary opening 27 'is disposed between the two main openings 25. There could of course be two secondary openings instead of the central secondary opening 27 ', but a single opening is equally effective and easier to achieve. A single central opening 27 'is, however, preferably wider in order to allow sufficient distance to each of the two claws 26 which make it back when they retreat to let a tongue 15, as is illustrated for example in Figure 4 .
Dans le présent exemple de réalisation, il y a donc deux ouvertures principales 25 et trois ouvertures secondaires 27, 27', entre lesquelles sont intercalées les deux ouvertures principales 25.  In this embodiment, there are therefore two main openings 25 and three secondary openings 27, 27 ', between which the two main openings 25 are interposed.
De plus, un bord d'une ouverture secondaire 27, 27' qui est situé derrière un bord d'une ouverture principale 25 sur lequel est positionnée une griffe 26 est parallèle audit bord de l'ouverture principale 25. Une ouverture principale 25 et une ouverture secondaire 27, 27' forment ainsi entre elles une branche 28, qui porte la griffe 26. In addition, an edge of a secondary opening 27, 27 'which is located behind an edge of a main opening 25 on which a claw 26 is positioned is parallel to said edge of the main opening 25. A main opening 25 and a secondary opening 27, 27 'thus form between them a branch 28, which carries the claw 26.
Visuellement, il est ainsi possible de considérer que le fond 21 comporte une grande ouverture compartimentée ici par quatre branches 28, qui formeraient deux paires de branches 28, avec chacune des paires qui définirait ainsi entre ses deux branches 28 une ouverture principale 25. Une ouverture définie entre une branche d'une paire et une branche d'une autre paire ou un bord de la grande ouverture serait alors une ouverture secondaire 27, 27'.  Visually, it is thus possible to consider that the bottom 21 has a large opening compartmentalized here by four branches 28, which form two pairs of branches 28, with each of the pairs which thus define between its two branches 28 a main opening 25. An opening defined between a branch of a pair and a branch of another pair or an edge of the large opening would then be a secondary opening 27, 27 '.
La pièce intérieure 2 comporte en outre ici un écarteur 29, qui est par exemple ici un plot formé en saillie d'un côté extérieur du fond 21 . Il est ici situé sensiblement au milieu d'un triangle formé entre un coin et les ouvertures 25, 27, 27', c'est-à-dire un coin différent de ceux entre lesquels se succèdent les ouvertures principales 25 et les ouvertures secondaires 27, 27'.  The inner part 2 further comprises here a spacer 29, which is for example here a stud formed projecting from an outer side of the bottom 21. It is here located substantially in the middle of a triangle formed between a corner and the openings 25, 27, 27 ', that is to say a different corner from those between which succeed the main openings 25 and the secondary openings 27 , 27 '.
Dans le cas illustré sur la figure 2 où la cage comporte trois montants, l'écarteur est situé vers le coin du carré qui est dépourvu de montant, de façon à profiter d'une plus grande élasticité du fond 21 dans cette zone.  In the case illustrated in Figure 2 where the cage has three uprights, the spacer is located towards the corner of the square which is devoid of amount, so as to take advantage of a greater elasticity of the bottom 21 in this area.
Selon une variante non représentée, l'écarteur peut également être une languette élastique. Celle-ci peut également être située dans une zone pleine du fond de la pièce intérieure, comme le plot.  According to a variant not shown, the spacer can also be an elastic tongue. This can also be located in a solid area of the bottom of the inner room, as the stud.
De la sorte, comme le montrent plus particulièrement les figures 3 à 5, lorsque la pièce intérieure 2 est insérée dans la pièce extérieure 1 , chaque griffe 26 vient d'abord en appui sur une languette 15.  In this way, as shown more particularly in FIGS. 3 to 5, when the inner part 2 is inserted into the outer part 1, each claw 26 comes to bear first on a tongue 15.
Une pression appliquée pour rapprocher le fond 21 de la pièce intérieure 2 et le fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 induit un écartement des griffes 26, et par conséquent des branches 28 qui les portent, par glissement de leur biseau 26b sur un bord libre 18 d'une languette 15 puis la griffe 26 s'engage sous la languette 15, en particulier ici sous la partie médiane 16. L'écartement a ainsi lieu sensiblement dans un plan du fond jusqu'à ce que les griffes passent sous les languettes 15.  A pressure applied to bring the bottom 21 of the inner part 2 and the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1 induces a spacing of the claws 26, and therefore the branches 28 which carry them, by sliding their bevel 26b on a free edge 18 of a tongue 15 and the claw 26 engages under the tongue 15, in particular here under the middle portion 16. The spacing thus takes place substantially in a plane of the bottom until the claws pass under the tabs 15.
Les branches reprennent ensuite sensiblement leur forme initiale, ou les griffes leur position initiale, et celles-ci sont alors engagées, en butée, sous les languettes 15, entre les languettes 15 et le fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 . Deux branches 28 encadrent alors une languette 15. The branches then substantially return to their initial shape, or the claws their initial position, and these are then engaged, in abutment, under the tongues 15, between the tongues 15 and the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1. Two branches 28 then frame a tongue 15.
A cela s'ajoute l'écarteur 29, ici le plot en surépaisseur du côté extérieur du fond 21 , qui rattrape les jeux de montage. Comme l'écarteur 29 est situé sur une zone relativement flexible du fond 21 , lors du montage, cette zone fléchit de façon élastique et tend ensuite à reprendre sa forme initiale. Un tel écarteur 29 permet ainsi de minimiser voire supprimer des jeux pouvant exister entre les griffes 26 et les languettes 25.  To this is added the spacer 29, here the stud extra thickness on the outside of the bottom 21, which catches the mounting games. As the spacer 29 is located on a relatively flexible area of the bottom 21, during assembly, this area flexes elastically and then tends to return to its original shape. Such a spacer 29 thus makes it possible to minimize or even eliminate games that may exist between the claws 26 and the tongues 25.
La figure 5 permet de constater qu'hormis un éventuel jeu de montage et/ou un écartement induit par l'écarteur 29, le fond 21 de la pièce intérieure 2 est alors tangent au fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 .  FIG. 5 shows that apart from any mounting clearance and / or spacing induced by the spacer 29, the bottom 21 of the inner part 2 is then tangent to the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1.
Selon une option intéressante esthétiquement, le côté extérieur du fond 1 1 de la pièce extérieure 1 est au final garni d'une étiquette ou de tout autre moyen pour masquer les découpes liées aux languettes 15.  According to an aesthetically interesting option, the outer side of the bottom 1 1 of the outer part 1 is finally lined with a label or other means to hide the cutouts related to the tabs 15.
Les fonds de la pièce intérieure et de la pièce extérieure peuvent ainsi s'appliquer à tout type de produit, avec par exemple la pièce extérieure en métal et la pièce intérieure en plastique.  The bottoms of the inner and outer parts can thus be applied to any type of product, for example with the metal outer part and the plastic inner part.
A titre d'exemple de mise en œuvre, la figure 6 représente un conteneur de brillant à lèvre.  As an example of implementation, Figure 6 shows a lip gloss container.
Le conteneur de brillant à lèvre comporte un élément d'application 100 et un élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection 200.  The lip gloss container comprises an applicator element 100 and a tubular storage and protection element 200.
L'élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection 200 comporte un fourreau 1 et une cage 2, qui correspondent respectivement à la pièce extérieure 1 et à la pièce intérieure 2 précédemment décrites.  The tubular storage and protection element 200 comprises a sheath 1 and a cage 2, which respectively correspond to the outer part 1 and the inner part 2 described above.
L'élément tubulaire de stockage et de protection 200 comporte en outre un réservoir 201 , qui contient le produit fluide ou pâteux, positionné au sein de la cage 2 et configuré pour se translater de haut en bas dans la cage 2 sur une course prédéterminée, notamment grâce à une action d'un élément élastiquement compressible 202, qui est ici un ressort. L'élément élastiquement compressible 202 est ici maintenu, à l'intérieur de la cage 2, entre le fond 21 de la cage 2 et un rebord 203 formé ici sur la surface périphérique extérieure du réservoir 201 . Afin de pouvoir utiliser et appliquer le produit, l'élément d'application 100 comporte une tige 101 qui est d'une part terminée par un applicateur 102 et d'autre part solidaire d'un capuchon 204. Lorsque le conteneur est fermé, l'applicateur 102 est alors immergé dans le produit au fond du réservoir 201 . The tubular storage and protection element 200 further comprises a reservoir 201, which contains the fluid or pasty product, positioned within the cage 2 and configured to translate up and down in the cage 2 over a predetermined stroke, in particular by virtue of an action of an elastically compressible element 202, which is here a spring. The elastically compressible element 202 is here maintained, inside the cage 2, between the bottom 21 of the cage 2 and a flange 203 formed here on the outer peripheral surface of the tank 201. In order to be able to use and apply the product, the application element 100 comprises a rod 101 which is on the one hand terminated by an applicator 102 and on the other hand secured to a cap 204. When the container is closed, the applicator 102 is then immersed in the product at the bottom of the tank 201.
Une pièce 205, composée d'un ou plusieurs éléments, est disposée autour d'un bord supérieur du réservoir 201 et est fixée au réservoir 201 , par exemple par enfoncement. Elle permet à la fois de garantir une étanchéité du réservoir lorsque celui-ci est fermé et de permettre un raclage de la tige et/ou un essorage de l'applicateur 102 lorsque celui-ci est extrait du réservoir 201 .  A piece 205, composed of one or more elements, is disposed around an upper edge of the reservoir 201 and is fixed to the reservoir 201, for example by depression. It allows both to ensure a tightness of the reservoir when it is closed and to allow scraping of the rod and / or a spin of the applicator 102 when it is removed from the reservoir 201.
La figure 6 permet ainsi de constater que la présence des languettes et leur disposition telle que décrite précédemment permet ainsi d'éviter toute gêne à encontre du positionnement et du fonctionnement d'un élément élastiquement compressible 202 et/ou du réservoir 201 qui peut être facilement mobile. La cage 2 est ainsi solidement fixée au fourreau 1 sans gêner les mouvements du réservoir 201 ou de tout autre élément.  FIG. 6 thus makes it possible to observe that the presence of the tongues and their arrangement as described above thus makes it possible to avoid any hindrance to the positioning and operation of an elastically compressible element 202 and / or the reservoir 201 which can be easily mobile. The cage 2 is thus securely fixed to the sheath 1 without hindering the movements of the tank 201 or any other element.
Bien sûr, la présente invention ne se limite ni à la description précédente ni aux figures annexées, mais s'étend à toute variante à la portée de l'homme du métier.  Of course, the present invention is not limited to the foregoing description or the appended figures, but extends to any variant within the scope of those skilled in the art.
