Description

DISPOSITIF APPLICATEUR D'UN PRODUIT DE TYPE FLUIDE OU PATEUX SUR  APPLICATOR DEVICE FOR A FLUID OR PASTY TYPE PRODUCT
DES FIBRES KERATINIQUES  KERATIN FIBERS
DOMAINE TECHNIQUE DE L'INVENTION TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] L'invention se rapporte au domaine des applicateurs de produit cosmétique fluide ou pâteux, de type mascara. L'invention concerne plus spécifiquement le dispositif ou moyen applicateur du produit cosmétique. The invention relates to the field of applicators of cosmetic product fluid or pasty, mascara type. The invention relates more specifically to the device or means of application of the cosmetic product.
ETAT DE LA TECHNIQUE ANTERIEURE STATE OF THE PRIOR ART
[0002] On connaît déjà dans l'art antérieur de très nombreux applicateurs de mascara. Le dispositif d'application en lui-même peut être par exemple une brosse de forme allongée, dotée d'une âme centrale à partir de laquelle sont hérissés un ensemble de poils ou picots. Les poils relèvent d'une technologie ancienne : un fil métallique torsadé retient des poils qui sont hérissés transversalement. Un exemple d'application est illustré dans le brevet américain US 5 61 1 361 . [0003] Plus récemment, le dispositif d'application se présente sous la forme d'une brosse comprenant une série de picots encastrés sur l'âme longitudinale de la brosse. L'ensemble est moulé en matière plastique. Un dispositif d'application forme ainsi avec un réservoir approprié dans lequel il est insérable, un distributeur de produit cosmétique. Les demandes FR 2 810 860 et WO 201 1/045770 montrent quelques exemples d'applicateurs issus de ce concept.  [0002] In the prior art, a large number of mascara applicators are already known. The application device itself may be for example an elongate brush, having a central core from which are bristled a set of bristles or pins. The hairs are old technology: a twisted wire retains bristles that are bristles transversely. An exemplary application is illustrated in US Pat. No. 5,661,361. More recently, the application device is in the form of a brush comprising a series of pins embedded on the longitudinal core of the brush. The whole is molded in plastic material. An application device thus forms with a suitable reservoir in which it is insertable, a cosmetic product dispenser. The applications FR 2 810 860 and WO 201 1/045770 show some examples of applicators resulting from this concept.
[0004] Les inconvénients des dispositifs d'application, ou brosses, de l'art antérieur sont que les picots ne permettent pas de réaliser correctement le transfert du produit cosmétique du réservoir sur les picots, et une application appropriée du produit sur les fibres kératiniques, pour les allonger, les épaissir et/ou les séparer. [0005] Une solution envisagée par l'art antérieur pour améliorer la charge en mascara des brosses consiste à utiliser des picots ayant une face plane pour recueillir le mascara tandis que la face non plane participe à la séparation des cils. Le document EP 1 872 682 décrit une telle brosse ; les picots sont disposés selon des rangées parallèles à l'axe longitudinal de la brosse et tous les picots d'une rangée présentent leur face plane du même côté : les faces planes sont alignées tandis que les faces non planes se trouvent du même côté de la ligne. L'utilisateur de la brosse imprime donc un mouvement de la brosse dans une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal de la brosse, tout en faisant tourner celle-ci. The disadvantages of the application devices, or brushes, of the prior art are that the pins do not make it possible correctly to transfer the cosmetic product from the reservoir to the pins, and an appropriate application of the product to the keratinous fibers. to lengthen, thicken and / or separate them. A solution envisaged by the prior art to improve the mascara load of the brushes is to use spikes having a flat face to collect the mascara while the non-planar face participates in the separation of the eyelashes. EP 1 872 682 discloses such a brush; the pins are arranged in rows parallel to the longitudinal axis of the brush and all the pins of a row have their flat face on the same side: the flat faces are aligned while the non-planar faces are on the same side of the brush. line. The user of the brush thus prints a movement of the brush in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the brush, while rotating it.
[0006] Les brosses de ce type ne présentent pas une efficacité maximale car les faces planes ne participent pas à la séparation des cils et les faces non planes ne participent pas à la charge en mascara. Avec ce type de brosse, l'utilisatrice est donc contrainte d'effectuer plusieurs passages sur ses cils tout en inversant le mouvement de la brosse pour s'assurer de récupérer une charge suffisante en mascara. Brushes of this type do not have maximum efficiency because the flat faces do not participate in the separation of eyelashes and non-planar faces do not participate in the mascara load. With this type of brush, the user is therefore forced to make several passes on her eyelashes while reversing the movement of the brush to ensure that a sufficient load of mascara is recovered.
[0007] De façon quelque peu différente, la demande de brevet EP 161 1 817 divulgue un dispositif d'application de mascara comprenant un support longitudinal, une première et une deuxième rangées de picots réalisés de manière monolithique avec le support, encastrés d'un même côté du support et s'étendant sur plus d'un quart de la longueur du support. Les dents (ou picots) s'étendent de part et d'autre d'une surface géométrique dite de séparation formée selon deux directions et surfaces non parallèles. Les picots sont érigés à partir d'une face plane du support, et ils sont ménagés en quinconce de part et d'autre de la surface de séparation. Ainsi lors de l'application du mascara, le mouvement de va et vient imprimer à la brosse ne permet pas une répartition optimale de la charge ni une séparation appropriée des cils. In a somewhat different way, the patent application EP 161 1 817 discloses a mascara application device comprising a longitudinal support, a first and a second row of pins made monolithically with the support, embedded in a same side of the support and extending over more than a quarter of the length of the support. The teeth (or pins) extend on either side of a so-called separation geometric surface formed in two non-parallel directions and surfaces. The pins are erected from a flat face of the support, and they are arranged in staggered rows on both sides of the separation surface. Thus during the application of the mascara, the movement back and forth print with the brush does not allow an optimal distribution of the load or an appropriate separation of the eyelashes.
[0008] On connaît encore la demande de brevet FR 2 930 875 qui décrit un dispositif applicateur de produit cosmétique comprenant une âme longitudinale supportant plusieurs rangées de picots présentant une face plane et projetés radialement depuis l'âme. Les picots sont répartis selon au moins une rangée parallèle à l'axe longitudinal de l'âme, de telle sorte que sur une même rangée les picots sont positionnés alternativement de part et d'autre d'une ligne (ou plan) centrale de la rangée, avec leur face plane tournée vers l'intérieur de la rangée. Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, les faces planes des picots d'une même rangée s'étendent perpendiculairement à l'âme et sont alignées, et elles sont orientées dans les deux sens giratoires autour de l'âme. [0008] Patent application FR 2 930 875, which describes a cosmetic product applicator device comprising a longitudinal core supporting several rows of pins having a flat face and projected radially from the core, is also known. The pins are distributed in at least one row parallel to the longitudinal axis of the core, so that in the same row the pins are positioned alternately on either side of a line (or plane) central to the row, with their planar face turned towards the inside of the row. According to a characteristic of the invention, the flat faces of the pins of the same row extend perpendicular to the core and are aligned, and they are oriented in both gyratory directions around the core.
[0009] Même si cette solution apporte une certaine amélioration vis-à-vis de l'art antérieur, la modularité de la charge n'est pas obtenue favorablement. En outre la séparation des cils reste perfectible. [0010] Un développement apparaît donc nécessaire notamment au niveau de la forme de chaque picot. Chaque picot doit contribuer à améliorer, seul ou en combinaison avec d'autres picots, à la fois la charge en produit, et la séparation des cils ou fibres kératiniques. Even if this solution provides some improvement vis-à-vis the prior art, the modularity of the load is not obtained favorably. In addition, the separation of the eyelashes remains perfectible. Development therefore appears necessary especially in terms of the shape of each pin. Each pin must contribute to improving, alone or in combination with other pins, both the load product, and the separation of eyelashes or keratin fibers.
EXPOSE DE L'INVENTION SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0011] L'invention vise à remédier aux inconvénients de l'état de la technique notamment en ce qui concerne la charge en produit cosmétique et la séparation des cils. [0012] Pour ce faire est proposé selon l'invention un dispositif applicateur d'un produit de type fluide ou pâteux sur des fibres kératiniques, comprenant une âme centrale de forme allongée qui s'étend selon un axe longitudinal XX, au moins une rangée de picots allongés comprenant une première extrémité encastrée sur l'âme et une deuxième extrémité libre, les picots et l'âme étant formés en une seule pièce. Selon un premier aspect de l'invention, l'un au moins des picots est délimité par une première face plane confondue avec un plan longitudinal du dispositif, dit plan de référence P, et par une deuxième face plane formant avec ladite première face plane un angle compris entre 10 et 180° ; en outre ledit au moins un picot comprend une première zone encastrée sur l'âme et de section transversale sensiblement constante en forme de portion de cercle, et une deuxième zone de section transversale variable située sensiblement dans le prolongement longitudinal de ladite première zone.  The invention aims to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art including the charge of cosmetic product and the separation of the eyelashes. To do this is proposed according to the invention an applicator device of a product of fluid or pasty type on keratinous fibers, comprising an elongate central core which extends along a longitudinal axis XX, at least one row an elongated bar having a first end embedded in the web and a second free end, the barbs and the web being formed in one piece. According to a first aspect of the invention, at least one of the pins is delimited by a first plane face merged with a longitudinal plane of the device, called reference plane P, and by a second planar face forming with said first planar face a angle between 10 and 180 °; in addition, said at least one pin comprises a first zone embedded in the core and of substantially constant cross-section in the form of a portion of a circle, and a second zone of variable cross section located substantially in the longitudinal extension of said first zone.
[0013] Ces caractéristiques qui constituent une définition technique précise de la forme et de la disposition individuelle et/ou réciproque des picots, améliorent les fonctions énoncées ci-avant. These characteristics which constitute a precise technical definition of the shape and the individual arrangement and / or reciprocal pins, improve the functions stated above.
[0014] De façon avantageuse, la forme et/ou la disposition de deux picots successivement implantés selon l'axe XX, est apte à créer au moins une ouverture distale entre eux. Ladite ouverture distale peut être ouverte vers l'extrémité libre du picot, en forme générale de diapason. [0015] Sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, la forme et/ou la disposition de deux picots successivement implantés selon l'axe XX, est apte à créer une deuxième ouverture entre eux. Selon l'option envisagée, l'ouverture distale et la deuxième ouvertures peuvent être distinctes ou communicantes. [0016] En outre, selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, deux au moins des picots constitutifs d'une rangée présentent une orientation identique. Advantageously, the shape and / or arrangement of two pins successively implanted along the axis XX, is able to create at least one distal opening between them. Said distal opening may be open towards the free end of the pin, in the general form of tuning fork. Without departing from the scope of the invention, the shape and / or arrangement of two pins successively implanted along the axis XX, is able to create a second opening between them. Depending on the option considered, the distal opening and the second openings may be separate or communicating. In addition, according to one embodiment of the invention, at least two constituent pins of a row have an identical orientation.
[0017] Conformément à un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, deux au moins des picots constitutifs d'une rangée présentent une orientation différente. According to another embodiment of the invention, at least two constituent pins of a row have a different orientation.
[0018] Par ailleurs, la distance mesurée selon l'axe XX entre deux picots successifs peut être négative, nulle ou bien positive, inférieure à environ 2 mm. Cette distance est adaptée facilement au cas particulier envisagé. Furthermore, the distance measured along the axis XX between two successive pins can be negative, zero or positive, less than about 2 mm. This distance is easily adapted to the particular case envisaged.
[0019] Selon un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, la première et la deuxième faces forment entre elles un angle d'environ 180°, et la deuxième zone comprend au moins une première portion juxtaposée et dans le prolongement de la première zone, et une deuxième portion juxtaposée à recouvrement avec la première portion selon ledit plan de référence P. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the first and second faces form between them an angle of about 180 °, and the second zone comprises at least a first portion juxtaposed and in the extension of the first zone. , and a second portion juxtaposed overlap with the first portion along said reference plane P.
[0020] De façon plus précise, ladite première portion comprend un premier renflement ; la deuxième portion comprend un deuxième renflement orienté différemment dudit premier renflement. [0021]Selon une autre alternative de l'invention, ladite deuxième portion de la deuxième zone présente une forme de U qui s'étend sensiblement parallèlement audit plan de référence, de l'autre côté dudit plan de référence P relativement à la première portion. More specifically, said first portion comprises a first bulge; the second portion comprises a second bulge oriented differently from said first bulge. According to another alternative of the invention, said second portion of the second zone has a U-shape which extends substantially parallel to said reference plane, on the other side of said reference plane P relative to the first portion. .
[0022] En outre, la deuxième zone du ou des picots peut s'étendre selon une succession de courbures concaves et convexes. In addition, the second zone of the spike or pins may extend in a succession of concave and convex curvatures.
[0023] Sortir du cadre de l'invention, l'un au moins des picots comprend au moins une excroissance issu d'un renflement et/ou d'une convexité. BREVE DESCRIPTION DES FIGURES Exit from the scope of the invention, at least one of the pins comprises at least one protrusion from a bulge and / or a convexity. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

[0026] Dans la suite de ce texte, « applicateur » ou « dispositif applicateur » ou encore « dispositif d'application » sont utilisés pour définir le même moyen technique. In the following text, "applicator" or "applicator device" or "application device" are used to define the same technical means.
DESCRIPTION DETAILLEE D'UN MODE DE REALISATION DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EMBODIMENT
[0027] La figure 1 montre le principe de l'invention qui concerne donc un dispositif d'application d'un produit de type fluide ou pâteux sur des fibres kératiniques tels que des cils. De façon connue, ce dispositif comprend une âme 1 allongée qui s'étend selon un axe longitudinal XX ; la section transversale de l'âme peut être constante ou non. Au moins une rangée de picots ou protubérances 2, de forme générale allongée, comprennent une première extrémité 20 encastrée sur l'âme 1 et une deuxième extrémité 21 libre ; les picots 2 et l'âme sont avantageusement formés en une seule pièce notamment en plastique venu de moule. Le dispositif d'application est de forme générale allongée et son volume extérieur peut prendre différentes formes : cylindrique, en tronc de cône, en cacahouète ou autre ; l'homme de métier la choisit en fonction du cas de figure précis. Les figures 1 A et 1 B montrent un volume extérieur sensiblement cylindrique ; la figure 2A une forme extérieure en cacahouète ; la figure 3A une forme ondulée. Figure 1 shows the principle of the invention which therefore relates to a device for applying a product of fluid or pasty type on keratinous fibers such as eyelashes. In known manner, this device comprises an elongated core 1 which extends along a longitudinal axis XX; the cross section of the core may be constant or not. At least one row of pins or protuberances 2, of generally elongate shape, comprise a first end 20 embedded on the core 1 and a second free end 21; the pins 2 and the core are advantageously formed in one piece including plastic mold. The application device is of elongated general shape and its external volume can take different forms: cylindrical, truncated cone, peanut or other; the skilled person chooses it according to the specific case. Figures 1A and 1B show a substantially cylindrical outer volume; Figure 2A an outer form peanut; Figure 3A is a wavy shape.
[0028] Selon l'invention et comme illustré par exemple sur les figures 4 à 13, l'un au moins des picots est délimité par une première face plane 200 confondue ou sensiblement confondue avec un plan P dit longitudinal ou de référence qui s'étend radialement vis-à-vis de l'âme 1 . La figure 1 montre clairement le plan P ; cette figure illustre en outre une rangée de picots 2 qui présentent une face confondue avec le plan P. According to the invention and as illustrated for example in Figures 4 to 13, at least one of the pins is defined by a first plane face 200 coincident or substantially coincident with a plane P said longitudinal or reference which s' extends radially with respect to the core 1. Figure 1 clearly shows the plane P; this figure also illustrates a row of pins 2 which have a face coincident with the plane P.
[0029] Les (ou au moins l'un des) picots 2 sont en outre définis et délimités par une deuxième face plane 210 formant avec la première face plane 200 un angle compris entre environ 10° et 180°. Les différentes figures qui suivent montrent les angles envisageables, qui sont choisis, déterminés, calculés par l'homme de métier. The (or at least one of) pins 2 are further defined and delimited by a second planar face 210 forming with the first planar face 200 an angle of between about 10 ° and 180 °. The various figures which follow show the possible angles, which are chosen, determined, calculated by the person skilled in the art.
[0030] En outre au moins un picot 2 comprend une première zone 22 encastrée sur l'âme 1 ; cette zone correspond à l'encastrement 21 et elle présente une section transversale sensiblement constante, de préférence en forme de portion de cercle ; c'est le « pied » ou l'ancrage de chaque picot sur l'âme 1 . Dans le prolongement longitudinal de la première zone 22, on considère une deuxième zone 23 qui peut présenter diverses formes, comme l'illustrent notamment mais non exhaustivement les figures annexées. In addition, at least one pin 2 comprises a first zone 22 embedded on the core 1; this zone corresponds to the recess 21 and has a substantially constant cross section, preferably in the form of a portion of a circle; it is the "foot" or the anchoring of each pin on the soul 1. In the longitudinal extension of the first zone 22, consider a second zone 23 which may have various shapes, as illustrated in particular but not exhaustively the appended figures.
[0031] Selon les figures 4A, 4B, 4C la première 200 et la deuxième 210 faces du picot considéré forment un angle droit entre elles, comme le montre clairement la figure 4C. La deuxième zone 23 présente ici une première portion renflée - ou premier renflement- 231 juxtaposée et dans le prolongement de la première zone 22, et une deuxième portion renflée - ou deuxième renflement- 232 dans le prolongement du premier renflement 231 . According to Figures 4A, 4B, 4C the first 200 and the second 210 faces of the pin considered form a right angle between them, as clearly shown in Figure 4C. The second zone 23 here has a first bulged portion - or first bulge - 231 juxtaposed and in the extension of the first zone 22, and a second bulged portion - or second bulge 232 in the extension of the first bulge 231.
[0032] Les figures 5A et 5B concernent un mode de réalisation qui diffère de celui des figures 4 en ce que la deuxième portion renflée 232 présente un évidement 233 au niveau de la partie distale 21 du picot. La figure 5B diffère en outre par l'angle entre les deux faces 200, 210 du picot : cet angle est ici d'environ 45°. Ce picot est donc plus fin et, toutes choses égales par ailleurs, plus souple que celui illustré par les figures 4. Figures 5A and 5B relate to an embodiment which differs from that of Figures 4 in that the second bulged portion 232 has a recess 233 at the distal portion 21 of the pin. Figure 5B differs further by the angle between the two faces 200, 210 of the pin: this angle is here about 45 °. This pin is therefore thinner and, all things being equal, more flexible than that illustrated in FIGS.
[0033] Les figures 6A, 6B et 6C illustrent l'arrangement réciproque de deux picots adjacents, ainsi que leur forme intrinsèque. A la différence du picot des figures 5A, 5B et 5C, la forme de chaque picot comprend deux évidements 233 et 234, sensiblement dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre. Ces évidements sont aptes à former deux ouvertures 235, 236 dans le prolongement l'une de l'autre, avec une disposition réciproque appropriée de deux picots successifs. [0034] Les faces 200 et 210 sont ici orientées à 90° l'une de l'autre, bien que cette orientation puisse être différente sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. Les deux picots 2 présentent une orientation différente, à 180°. Figures 6A, 6B and 6C illustrate the reciprocal arrangement of two adjacent pins, and their intrinsic shape. Unlike the pin of Figures 5A, 5B and 5C, the shape of each pin comprises two recesses 233 and 234, substantially in the extension of one another. These recesses are able to form two openings 235, 236 in the extension of one another, with an appropriate reciprocal arrangement of two successive pins. The faces 200 and 210 are here oriented at 90 ° from each other, although this orientation may be different without departing from the scope of the invention. The two pins 2 have a different orientation, 180 °.
[0035] Les figures 7A, 7B, 7C montrent une forme de la deuxième zone 23 proche de celle des figures 6, mais avec une section transversale sensiblement constante. Cette forme permet par une disposition choisie et appropriée, de former entre deux picots longitudinalement juxtaposés, une grande ouverture 230 allongée et fermée à l'extrémité distale 21 . Figures 7A, 7B, 7C show a shape of the second zone 23 close to that of Figures 6, but with a substantially constant cross section. This shape makes it possible, by means of a chosen and appropriate arrangement, to form, between two longitudinally juxtaposed pins, a large opening 230 elongate and closed at the distal end 21.
[0036] Une variante du mode de réalisation des figures 7A, 7B, 7C est représentée sur les figures 8A, 8B et 8C. La différence réside dans l'ouverture 230 qui n'est pas fermée à l'extrémité distale 21 . Une sorte de diapason constitue ici la deuxième zone 23 qui bénéficie d'une souplesse intéressante à la fois pour servir de réservoir de produit et pour retenir et guider les fibres kératiniques. A variant of the embodiment of FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C is shown in FIGS. 8A, 8B and 8C. The difference lies in the opening 230 which is not closed at the distal end 21. A kind of tuning fork is here the second zone 23 which has an interesting flexibility both to serve as a product reservoir and to retain and guide the keratin fibers.
[0037] Les figures 9A, 9B et 9C concernent des picots 2 du type présenté ci-dessus auxquels est ajouté un ergot ou excroissance 24 issu d'un renflement et/ou d'une convexité 232. Là encore, cette géométrie est intéressante pour améliorer le guidage des fibres kératiniques. Par ailleurs on cherche ici avantageusement à former une ouverture 236, à l'extrémité distale de deux picots juxtaposés. FIGS. 9A, 9B and 9C relate to pins 2 of the type presented above to which is added a pin or protuberance 24 resulting from a bulge and / or a convexity 232. Here again, this geometry is interesting for improve the guiding of keratinous fibers. Moreover, it is advantageous here to form an opening 236 at the distal end of two juxtaposed pins.
[0038] Les figures 10A et 10B illustrent un picot 2 qui peut être réalisé de deux façons : soit par la juxtaposition à contact de deux picots dont la première 200 et la deuxième 210 faces font entre elles un angle de 90° ; soit par un seul picot dont les première et deuxième faces forment un angle de 180°. Dans les deux options, deux renflements 231 , 232 sont prévus au niveau de la deuxième zone 23, et ces deux renflements sont issus de la ou des zones planes 200, 210. Les renflements sont orientés à 180° l'un de l'autre ; ils présentent une surface de contact confondue avec un plan de référence P. Figures 10A and 10B illustrate a pin 2 which can be achieved in two ways: either by the contact juxtaposition of two pins, the first 200 and the second 210 faces are between them an angle of 90 °; by a single pin whose first and second faces form an angle of 180 °. In both options, two bulges 231, 232 are provided at the second zone 23, and these two bulges are derived from the plane or zones 200, 210. The bulges are oriented 180 ° from each other ; they have a contact surface merged with a reference plane P.
[0039] Les figures 1 1 , 1 1 A et 1 1 B montrent un mode de réalisation de l'invention selon lequel les picots 2 sont délimités par une première face plane 200 et une deuxième face plane 210 formant entre elles un angle d'environ 45°. Les deuxièmes zones 23 des picots sont formées par une succession de courbures concaves et convexes. La disposition de deux picots adjacents est telle qu'un écart E d'environ 0.01 mm peut être mesuré selon l'axe longitudinal XX du dispositif applicateur. L'orientation de deux picots adjacents n'est pas la même puisque les deuxièmes faces planes 210 se trouvent alternativement de part et d'autre du plan longitudinal P de référence, tandis que les premières faces 200 appartiennent au plan de référence P. Cette disposition permet de former dans l'espace deux ouvertures sensiblement distinctes 235, 236. Figures 1 1, 1 1 A and 1 1 B show an embodiment of the invention according to which the pins 2 are delimited by a first planar face 200 and a second planar face 210 forming between them an angle of about 45 °. The second zones 23 of the pins are formed by a succession of concave and convex curvatures. The arrangement of two adjacent pins is such that a gap E of about 0.01 mm can be measured along the longitudinal axis XX of the applicator device. The orientation of two adjacent pins is not the same since the second planar faces 210 are alternately on either side of the reference longitudinal plane P, while the first faces 200 belong to the reference plane P. This arrangement allows two substantially distinct openings 235, 236 to be formed in space.
[0040] Les figures 12, 12A, 12B présentent un mode de réalisation qui diffère de celui des figures 1 1 , 1 1 A et 1 1 B par l'écart E longitudinal d'implantation entre deux picots. Cet écart est environ dix fois plus grand, de sorte que les ouvertures 235, 236 ne sont pas fermées. L'homme de métier choisit la version la plus appropriée. Figures 12, 12A, 12B show an embodiment which differs from that of Figures 1 1, 1 1 A and 1 1 B by the longitudinal spacing E implantation between two pins. This gap is about ten times larger, so that the openings 235, 236 are not closed. The skilled person chooses the most appropriate version.
[0041] Les figures 13A, 13B et 13C montrent trois écarts possibles entre deux picots 2 longitudinalement adjacents. Selon la figure 13A, deux picots adjacents présentent une surface maximale de recouvrement au niveau de leurs premières faces planes 200 ; selon la figure 13B, la surface de recouvrement est d'environ la moitié des premières surfaces planes 200 ; selon la figure 13C, seule une faible portion de la surface de contact est prévue. Figures 13A, 13B and 13C show three possible gaps between two pins 2 longitudinally adjacent. According to FIG. 13A, two adjacent pins have a maximum overlap surface at their first planar faces 200; according to Fig. 13B, the overlap area is about half of the first planar surfaces 200; according to Figure 13C, only a small portion of the contact surface is provided.
[0042] La figure 14 illustre par une perspective un mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention. Un aspect intéressant de ce mode de réalisation concerne les ouvertures distales 236 formées par deux picots 2 successifs, sur plusieurs rangées de picots. Ces ouvertures 236 servent de réservoir pour le produit fluide ou pâteux. De tels réservoirs se remplissent facilement de produit dans la mesure où ils sont disposés en périphérie du volume occupé par le dispositif d'application ; les ouvertures étant par ailleurs formées par deux extrémités libres de picots, elles sont particulièrement flexibles, ce qui est intéressant pour les passages répétés des dispositifs applicateurs à travers les essoreurs - petits disques placés au niveau du col du conteneur-. [0042] Figure 14 illustrates by a perspective a preferred embodiment of the invention. An interesting aspect of this embodiment relates to the distal openings 236 formed by two successive pins 2, in several rows of pins. These openings 236 serve as a reservoir for the fluid or pasty product. Such tanks are easily filled with product to the extent that they are arranged at the periphery of the volume occupied by the application device; the openings being also formed by two free ends of pins, they are particularly flexible, which is interesting for repeated passages applicator devices through the wipers - small discs placed at the neck of the container-.
[0043] Les figures 15, 15A et 15B concernent une solution où la deuxième portion de la deuxième zone 23 du picot présente une forme en U dont le sommet est juxtaposé avec la première zone 22 au niveau d'un plan longitudinal P. La figure 15A montre clairement cet arrangement. Selon les figures 15 et 15A, plusieurs rangées de picots (six) tels que décrits ci-dessus sont prévues, radialement espacées sur l'âme. D'autres types de picots 2 peuvent être prévus sur une âme 1 , par exemple radialement intercalés entre les picots en U. La figure 15B montre plus en détail un picot 2 tel que décrit ci-dessus. Figures 15, 15A and 15B relate to a solution where the second portion of the second zone 23 of the pin has a U-shaped whose apex is juxtaposed with the first zone 22 at a longitudinal plane P. The figure 15A clearly shows this arrangement. According to Figures 15 and 15A, several rows of pins (six) as described above are provided, radially spaced on the core. Other types of pins 2 may be provided on a core 1, for example radially interposed between the U-shaped pins. FIG. 15B shows in more detail a pin 2 as described above.
[0044] Une variante de réalisation de l'invention est illustrée sur les figures 16, 16A et 16B. Selon ces figures, le picot comprend une première zone 22 encastrée sur l'âme, telle que déjà définie ; le picot comprend en outre une deuxième zone 23 ici définie par une première partie 231 dont les deux faces forment un angle de 180° et appartiennent au plan de référence P. La partie 231 se situe dans le prolongement longitudinal de la première zone 22 et elle est juxtaposée à recouvrement dans le plan P avec une deuxième partie 232, partie distale, qui se projette de l'autre côté du plan P, comme le montre notamment la figure 16B. La partie 232 présente une ouverture ou boucle fermée à son extrémité distale (non référencée mais correspondant à l'ouverture 236 des autres modes de réalisation des picots). Autrement dit le picot est ici « réparti » de part et d'autre du plan P. Il présente toutes les caractéristiques et avantages des autres modes de réalisation de l'invention. An alternative embodiment of the invention is illustrated in Figures 16, 16A and 16B. According to these figures, the pin comprises a first zone 22 embedded on the core, as already defined; the pin further comprises a second zone 23 here defined by a first portion 231 whose two faces form an angle of 180 ° and belong to the reference plane P. The portion 231 is in the longitudinal extension of the first zone 22 and is juxtaposed overlap in the plane P with a second part 232, distal portion, which projects to the other side of the plane P, as shown in particular in Figure 16B. The portion 232 has an opening or closed loop at its distal end (not referenced but corresponding to the opening 236 of the other embodiments of the pins). In other words the pin is here "distributed" on both sides of the plane P. It has all the features and advantages of the other embodiments of the invention.
[0045] Les figures 17, 17A et 17B concernent un mode de réalisation proche de celui illustré par les figures 16. La différence essentielle réside dans la forme de la deuxième partie 232, qui correspond ici à un crochet ouvert distalement. Ce mode de réalisation, plus souple que celui des figures 16, 16A, 16B, sera donc choisi par l'homme de métier lorsqu'une souplesse plus grande est requise. L'ouverture distale 236 est ici ouverte puisque définie par le crochet 232. [0046] Sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, les variantes des figures 16 et 17 pourraient être réalisées par deux picots dont les faces planes 200, 210 font entre elles un angle de 90°, et dont les faces 210 n'appartenant pas au plan de référence P, sont accolées. [0047] Par ailleurs, le nombre de rangées de picots varie préférentiellement de un à vingt-quatre, avec des picots et des arrangements de picots identiques ou non. En particulier, comme montré sur la figure 2B, les picots peuvent être tous orientés de la même façon sur une même rangée ou sur l'ensemble des picots constitutifs du dispositif d'application ; les picots peuvent aussi présenter des orientations différentes, par exemple alternées de part et d'autre du plan longitudinal P. Figures 17, 17A and 17B relate to an embodiment similar to that illustrated in Figures 16. The essential difference lies in the shape of the second part 232, which here corresponds to a distally open hook. This embodiment, which is more flexible than that of FIGS. 16, 16A, 16B, will therefore be chosen by those skilled in the art when greater flexibility is required. The distal opening 236 is here open since defined by the hook 232. Without departing from the scope of the invention, the variants of Figures 16 and 17 could be made by two pins whose planar faces 200, 210 are between them an angle of 90 °, and the faces 210 not belonging to at the reference plane P, are contiguous. Moreover, the number of rows of spikes preferably varies from one to twenty-four, with spikes and arrangements of spikes identical or not. In particular, as shown in FIG. 2B, the pins may all be oriented in the same way on the same row or on all the pins constituting the application device; the pins may also have different orientations, for example alternating on either side of the longitudinal plane P.
[0048] D'autres modifications non essentielles peuvent être prévues soit sur la forme intrinsèque des picots, soit sur leur orientation et/ou disposition réciproque, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. Bien entendu le dispositif applicateur selon l'invention peut présenter des picots issus des différents modes de réalisation selon l'invention et notamment illustrés et décrits ci-avant. Other non-essential modifications may be provided either on the intrinsic shape of the pins, or on their orientation and / or reciprocal arrangement, without departing from the scope of the invention. Of course the applicator device according to the invention may have pins from different embodiments of the invention and in particular illustrated and described above.
[0049] Naturellement l'homme de métier sait dimensionner notamment les picots, les écarts entre les picots, ainsi que l'âme afin de répondre aux exigences techniques requises. Of course, the skilled person knows how to size including the pins, the gaps between the pins, and the soul to meet the technical requirements.
