Description

La présente invention concerne des moyens de retenue mécanique d'une chemise métallique sur une enveloppe en matière synthétique, d'un étui tournant du type de ceux utilisés pour contenir des produits cosmétiques, tels qu'un bâton de rouge à lèvres ou de crèmes labiales.The present invention relates to means for mechanically retaining a metal sleeve on a synthetic material casing, a rotating case of the type used to contain cosmetic products, such as a stick of lipstick or lip creams .

Lors du transport, du stockage et d'utilisations répétées de ce type d'étui cosmétique, il y a un risque que la chemise métallique se désolidarise de l'enveloppe en matière synthétique, empêchant ainsi son utilisation. Ce phénomène est accentué lorsque le capot est directement emmanché sur la chemise métallique. Cette dernière étant sollicitée en traction à chaque utilisation lors du retrait du capot.During the transport, storage and repeated use of this type of cosmetic case, there is a risk that the metal jacket will separate from the synthetic material envelope, thus preventing its use. This phenomenon is accentuated when the cap is fitted directly onto the metal sleeve. The latter being stressed in traction with each use when removing the cover.

Une chemise métallique est communément fixée par l'utilisation de colles. Le désavantage majeur de ce mode de fixation, réside en ce qu'il nécessite une opération intermédiaire préalable à l'assemblage final, dont la mise en œuvre est complexe. Ce mode requiert également une quantité de colle précise, afin notamment d'éviter toute bavure. La colle peut également présenter un défaut de tenue dans des conditions extrêmes, telles que lors de chocs mécaniques ou thermiques, lors des phases de conditionnement de la pâte de rouge à lèvres ou de crèmes labiales, ainsi que lors des phases d'expéditions des produits.A metal liner is commonly secured by the use of glues. The major disadvantage of this method of attachment lies in the fact that it requires an intermediate operation prior to final assembly, the implementation of which is complex. This mode also requires a precise amount of glue, in particular to avoid any smudging. The glue may also show a lack of hold under extreme conditions, such as during mechanical or thermal shocks, during the packaging phases of the lipstick paste or lip creams, as well as during the product shipment phases. .

Un autre moyen communément utilisé est le serrage mécanique, de la chemise métallique en périphérie de l'enveloppe en matière synthétique. Ce moyen de fixation a un impact non négligeable sur le couple de fonctionnement du mécanisme tournant. Ce qui n'est pas acceptable sur un étui de bonne facture. Ce moyen ne permet pas non plus de garantir la tenue, car le serrage est impacté par les variations dimensionnelles de production et les conformations de la matière synthétique.Another commonly used means is the mechanical clamping of the metal sleeve around the periphery of the synthetic material casing. This fixing means has a non-negligible impact on the operating torque of the rotating mechanism. Which is not acceptable on a case of good quality. This means does not make it possible to guarantee the hold either, because the tightening is impacted by the dimensional variations of production and the conformations of the synthetic material.

La présente invention propose ainsi des moyens de retenue mécanique, permettant de pallier aux inconvénients précités. Le document JP 2000 050949 A divulgue un étui cosmétique tournant selon le préambule de la revendication 1. Les documents US 2 508 164 A , US 3 547 551 A divulguent des étuis cosmétiques tournants selon le contexte.The present invention thus proposes mechanical retaining means, making it possible to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks. The document JP 2000 050949 A discloses a rotating cosmetic case according to the preamble of claim 1.

Selon une autre alternative, qui ne forme pas partie de l'invention, au moins un profil en saillie est agencé sur la gaine en matière synthétique, le profil en saillie étant dirigé vers l'extérieur, à savoir vers la chemise métallique (5), cette dernière comprenant au moins un profil en creux, agencé en correspondance.According to another alternative, which does not form part of the invention, at least one projecting profile is arranged on the plastic sheath, the projecting profile being directed outwards, namely towards the metal jacket (5) , the latter comprising at least one hollow profile, arranged in correspondence.

Selon une troisième alternative, qui ne forme pas partie de l'invention, combinant les deux précédentes alternatives de l'invention, les deux pièces assemblées par coopération de forme comprennent chacune à la fois au moins un profil en saillie et au moins un profil en creux.According to a third alternative, which does not form part of the invention, combining the two preceding alternatives of the invention, the two parts assembled by shape cooperation each comprise both at least one projecting profile and at least one hollow.

Les profils par coopération de forme sont réalisés soit préalablement à l'assemblage, soit lors de la mise en forme ou du moulage, de la chemise métallique (5) et de la gaine en matière synthétique, soit après assemblage de ces dernières.The profiles by shape cooperation are produced either prior to assembly, or during shaping or molding, of the metal jacket (5) and the synthetic material sheath, or after assembly of the latter.

Précisons qu'un profil en saillie est avantageusement une saillie (13), un enfoncement (14) ou une fenêtre (15) et une forme (16) faisant saillie, tandis qu'un profil en creux est avantageusement une fenêtre (15), un enfoncement réalisé en force ou un moulage dans la gaine en matière synthétique.Note that a projecting profile is advantageously a projection (13), a recess (14) or a window (15) and a shape (16) projecting, while a recessed profile is advantageously a window (15), a depression made by force or a molding in the synthetic material sheath.

Selon un mode d'exécution, qui ne forme pas partie de l'invention, tel qu'illustré à la figure 3, au moins un profil en saillie est une saillie (13), de préférence au moins deux saillies (13) agencées de manière diamétralement opposées, et est/sont réalisée(s) par une déformation permanente de manière non perforante dans la paroi de la chemise métallique (5).According to one embodiment, which does not form part of the invention, as illustrated in picture 3 , at least one protruding profile is a protrusion (13), preferably at least two protrusions (13) arranged diametrically opposite, and is/are produced by a non-perforating permanent deformation in the wall of the metal jacket (5).

Une saillie (13) est réalisée, selon un mode de réalisation, par un procédé de picotage, résultant en au moins une déformation intérieure de la paroi de la chemise métallique (5). Ce procédé de picotage est réalisé avantageusement par l'utilisation de deux outils comportant une gravure de la géométrie de la saillie (13).A projection (13) is produced, according to one embodiment, by a pitting process, resulting in at least one internal deformation of the wall of the metal sleeve (5). This pecking process is advantageously carried out by the use of two tools comprising an engraving of the geometry of the projection (13).

Ces saillies (13) résultantes ont la forme de la gravure correspondante, de préférence ayant un profil comprenant au moins une arête, telles que pyramidale, prismatique ou tout autre forme.These resulting projections (13) have the shape of the corresponding engraving, preferably having a profile comprising at least one edge, such as pyramidal, prismatic or any other shape.

Selon le mode de l'invention, au moins un profil en saillie, au niveau de la chemise métallique (5), est réalisé par un procédé d'enfoncement, résultant en une découpe partielle de la paroi. L'enfoncement (14) résultant est par exemple sous une forme semi-cylindrique, au moins ouvert vers le haut, tel qu'illustré aux figures 4a et 4b.According to the mode of the invention, at least one projecting profile, at the level of the metal sleeve (5), is produced by a driving-in process, resulting in a partial cutting of the wall. The resulting depression (14) is for example in a semi-cylindrical shape, at least open upwards, as illustrated in figures 4a and 4b .

Selon le mode d'exécution précédent, un enfoncement (14) au moins ouvert vers le haut, vient créer une contre forme, à savoir un profil en creux au niveau de la paroi de la gaine en matière synthétique lors de l'assemblage en force de cette dernière avec la chemise métallique (5), mais il pourrait en être autrement, un profil en creux complémentaire à l'enfoncement (14) est réalisé préalablement à l'emmanchement de la chemise métallique (5) au de la gaine en matière synthétique. Ainsi, un enfoncement (14) au moins ouvert vers le haut, vient collaborer avec une contre forme, réalisée au préalable ou moulée, au niveau de la paroi de la gaine en matière synthétique. La contre forme et l'enfoncement (14) faisant saillie venant s'imbriquer en complémentarité, assurant un maintien mécanique de l'ensemble.According to the previous embodiment, a recess (14) at least open upwards, creates a counter shape, namely a recessed profile at the level of the wall of the synthetic material sheath during force assembly of the latter with the metal jacket (5), but it could be otherwise, a recessed profile complementary to the depression (14) is made prior to the fitting of the metal jacket (5) to the sheath in material synthetic. Thus, a depression (14) at least open upwards, comes to collaborate with a counterform, made beforehand or molded, at the level of the wall of the synthetic material sheath. The counter-form and the depression (14) protruding from interlocking in complementarity, ensuring mechanical retention of the assembly.

Selon un autre mode d'exécution, ne formant pas partie de l'invention, tel qu'illustré aux figures 5 et 7, au moins un profil en saillie est réalisé par poinçonnage. Un procédé de poinçonnage, produit une fenêtre (15) et avantageusement une forme (16) spécifique. Cette forme (16) spécifique faisant saillie, soit crée un profil en creux dans la gaine en matière synthétique lors de l'assemblage, soit collabore avec un profil en creux agencé dans cette dernière.According to another mode of execution, not forming part of the invention, as illustrated in figures 5 and 7 , at least one protruding profile is made by punching. A punching process produces a window (15) and advantageously a specific shape (16). This specific protruding form (16) either creates a recessed profile in the plastic sheath during assembly, or collaborates with a recessed profile arranged in the latter.

Selon le mode d'exécution précédent, en plus de la collaboration de forme entre la forme (16) et le profil en creux agencé dans la gaine en matière synthétique, un profil en saillie au niveau de cette dernière collabore avec la fenêtre (15) de la chemise métallique (5).According to the previous embodiment, in addition to the shape collaboration between the shape (16) and the recessed profile arranged in the sheath made of synthetic, a protruding profile at the latter collaborates with the window (15) of the metal jacket (5).

Selon un mode d'exécution, ne formant pas partie de l'invention, tel qu'illustré à la figure 6, la gaine en matière synthétique comprend une forme complémentaire (19) faisant saillie vers l'extérieur, à savoir vers la chemise métallique (5), de préférence moulée, à la fenêtre (16) correspondant à un profil en creux. La forme complémentaire (19) faisant saillie et la fenêtre (15) viennent s'imbriquer en complémentarité, assurant un maintien mécanique de l'ensemble.According to one embodiment, not forming part of the invention, as illustrated in figure 6 , the synthetic material sheath comprises a complementary shape (19) projecting outwards, namely towards the metal jacket (5), preferably molded, to the window (16) corresponding to a hollow profile. The complementary shape (19) protruding and the window (15) interlock in complementarity, ensuring mechanical retention of the assembly.

Différents mécanismes d'étui tournant comprenant chacun une chemise métallique emmanchée sur une gaine en matière synthétique sont disponibles sur le marché. Cependant la gaine en matière synthétique a généralement une fonction différente et constitue une pièce structurellement différenciée, telle qu'une enveloppe spiralée (4), une gaine inversée (20) à glissière(s) (10) ou un guide (21). Ces différents mécanismes d'étui tournant seront explicités dans la suite de la description.Various rotating case mechanisms each comprising a metal sleeve fitted onto a sheath made of synthetic material are available on the market. However, the sheath made of synthetic material generally has a different function and constitutes a structurally differentiated part, such as a spiral casing (4), an inverted sheath (20) with zipper(s) (10) or a guide (21). These different rotating casing mechanisms will be explained in the remainder of the description.

Selon un mode de réalisation, la gaine en matière synthétique est une enveloppe spiralée (4). Ainsi un étui tournant, tel qu'illustré à la figure 2, comprend avantageusement une couronne (1) solidaire ou faisant partit intégrante de la partie inférieure d'une gaine (2) à glissière (10), à l'intérieur duquel est monté mobile, en déplacement, un curseur (3) destiné à recevoir un produit cosmétique. La gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10) est enchâssée dans une enveloppe spiralée (4) montée en collaboration avec une chemise métallique (5) par coopération de forme. La gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10) et avantageusement la couronne (1), forment un sous-ensemble, monté mobile en libre rotation axiale par rapport à l'ensemble formé par l'enveloppe spiralée (4) et la chemise métallique (5).According to one embodiment, the plastic sheath is a spiral casing (4). Thus a rotating case, as illustrated in figure 2 , advantageously comprises a crown (1) integral with or forming an integral part of the lower part of a sheath (2) with a slide (10), inside which is movably mounted, in movement, a slider (3) intended to receive a cosmetic product. The sheath (2) with zipper(s) (10) is embedded in a spiral casing (4) mounted in collaboration with a metal jacket (5) by shape cooperation. The sheath (2) with zipper(s) (10) and advantageously the crown (1) form a sub-assembly, mounted to move in free axial rotation with respect to the assembly formed by the spiral casing (4) and the metal jacket (5).

Ajoutons que la gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10), permet d'entraîner le curseur (3) en translation axiale, lors de la rotation axiale de l'ensemble formé par la couronne (1) et la gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10). Cet ensemble est agencé de manière à ce que la rotation axiale de la couronne (1) entraîne le curseur (3) dans un mouvement de vrille. Ce mouvement se décompose en une rotation et une translation, toutes deux simultanées et axiales par rapport à l'ensemble formé par l'enveloppe spiralée (4) et la chemise métallique (5).Let us add that the sheath (2) with slider(s) (10), makes it possible to drive the slider (3) in axial translation, during the axial rotation of the assembly formed by the crown (1) and the sheath (2 ) with zipper(s) (10). This assembly is arranged so that the axial rotation of the crown (1) drives the slider (3) in a spin movement. This movement breaks down into a rotation and a translation, both simultaneous and axial with respect to the assembly formed by the spiral casing (4) and the metal sleeve (5).

Notons que la gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10) comporte, avantageusement deux glissières (10) agencées de manière diamétralement opposée, ménagée longitudinalement dans au moins une portion de sa paroi cylindrique.Note that the sheath (2) slide (s) (10) advantageously comprises two slides (10) arranged in a diametrically opposite manner, formed longitudinally in at least a portion of its cylindrical wall.

Précisons que la gaine (2) à glissière(s) (10) comprend un moyen de butée supérieur (8) et un moyen de butée inférieur (9) faisant saillies vers l'extérieur. En d'autres termes, ces moyens de butée (8, 9) sont avantageusement représentés par des nervures périphériques annulaires.It should be noted that the sheath (2) with zipper(s) (10) comprises an upper abutment means (8) and a lower abutment means (9) projecting outwards. In other words, these abutment means (8, 9) are advantageously represented by annular peripheral ribs.

L'enveloppe spiralée (4) comporte dans sa paroi intérieure, au moins une rainure (6) en hélice, fermée au moins à son extrémité supérieure, de préférence deux rainures (6) hélicoïdales, diamétralement opposées.The spiral envelope (4) comprises in its inner wall, at least one helical groove (6), closed at least at its upper end, preferably two helical grooves (6), diametrically opposed.

L'enveloppe spiralée (4), comprend ainsi au moins une rainure hélicoïdale (6) correspondant à une première zone, qu'on qualifiera de zone négative, et une seconde zone qu'on qualifiera de zone positive, correspondant à la zone agencée entre deux portions de rainure hélicoïdale (6). Il est entendu que la zone positive a une épaisseur plus importante que celle de la zone négative.The spiral casing (4) thus comprises at least one helical groove (6) corresponding to a first zone, which will be called a negative zone, and a second zone which will be called a positive zone, corresponding to the zone arranged between two helical groove portions (6). It is understood that the positive zone has a greater thickness than that of the negative zone.

Au moins un profil est avantageusement agencé au niveau d'au moins une zone positive de l'enveloppe spiralée (4). Cette configuration permet d'éviter un défaut de fonctionnement du mécanisme de rotation du curseur (3) au niveau d'au moins une rainure (6) hélicoïdale de l'enveloppe spiralée (4).At least one profile is advantageously arranged at the level of at least one positive zone of the spiral casing (4). This configuration makes it possible to avoid a malfunction of the mechanism for rotating the slider (3) at the level of at least one helical groove (6) of the spiral casing (4).

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, au moins un profil en saillie monté en collaboration avec au moins un profil en creux sont localisés au niveau d'une zone positive de l'enveloppe spiralée (4).According to a preferred embodiment, at least one protruding profile mounted in collaboration with at least one recessed profile are located at the level of a positive zone of the spiral casing (4).

L'enveloppe spiralée (4) est retenue par le moyen de butée supérieur (8) et le moyen de butée inférieur (9) de la gaine (2).The spiral casing (4) is retained by the upper abutment means (8) and the lower abutment means (9) of the sheath (2).

La chemise métallique (5) comprend avantageusement, en partie supérieure, un rebord (11), faisant saillie vers l'intérieur.The metal sleeve (5) advantageously comprises, in the upper part, a rim (11) projecting inwards.

Le curseur (3) comprend en outre au moins un ergot (7) traversant au moins une glissière (10) de la gaine (2) et coopérant avec au moins une rainure (6) de l'enveloppe spiralée (4). Au moins un ergot (7) coopère ainsi en coulissement avec au moins une glissière (10) et se prolongeant dans une rainure hélicoïdale (6), permettant d'entraîner le curseur (3) en translation axiale par rapport à la couronne (1), lors de la rotation de l'ensemble formé par l'enveloppe spiralée (4) et la chemise métallique (5).The slider (3) further comprises at least one lug (7) passing through at least one slideway (10) of the sheath (2) and cooperating with at least one groove (6) of the spiral casing (4). At least one lug (7) thus cooperates in sliding with at least one slide (10) and extending into a helical groove (6), making it possible to drive the slider (3) in axial translation relative to the crown (1) , during the rotation of the assembly formed by the spiral casing (4) and the metal sleeve (5).

La partie haute de la couronne (1) vient s'insérer avantageusement entre la partie extérieure de la gaine (2) et la partie intérieure de l'enveloppe spiralée (4), en dessous des moyens de butée inférieurs (9) de la gaine (2).The upper part of the crown (1) is advantageously inserted between the outer part of the sheath (2) and the inner part of the spiral casing (4), below the lower abutment means (9) of the sheath (2).

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la gaine en matière synthétique est une gaine inversée (20) à glissière(s) (10). Ainsi, un étui tournant, tel qu'illustré à la figure 8, comprend une chemise métallique (5) emmanchée avantageusement à la partie supérieure d'une gaine inversée (20) à glissière (10), à l'intérieur de laquelle est montée mobile en translation, un curseur (3) destiné à recevoir un produit cosmétique, tandis qu'une enveloppe spiralée (4) est emmanchée sur la partie inférieure de la gaine inversée (20) à glissière (10). Plus précisément, la chemise métallique (5) est enchâsser dans un berceau localisé en partie supérieure de la gaine inversée (20) à glissière (10).According to another embodiment, the sheath made of synthetic material is an inverted sheath (20) with zipper(s) (10). Thus, a rotating case, as illustrated in figure 8 , comprises a metal jacket (5) advantageously fitted to the upper part of an inverted sheath (20) with slide (10), inside which is mounted movable in translation, a slider (3) intended to receive a product cosmetic, while a spiral casing (4) is fitted onto the lower part of the inverted sheath (20) with zipper (10). More specifically, the metal sleeve (5) is embedded in a cradle located in the upper part of the inverted sheath (20) with zipper (10).

La gaine inversée (20) à glissière(s) (10) comprend en outre un moyen de butée supérieur (8) et un moyen de butée inférieur (9) faisant saillies vers l'extérieur, tandis que l'enveloppe spiralée (4) est retenue par ces derniers.The inverted sheath (20) with zipper(s) (10) further comprises an upper abutment means (8) and a lower abutment means (9) projecting outwards, while the spiral casing (4) is retained by them.

Selon le mode de réalisation précédent, la gaine inversée (20) à glissière(s) (10), permet d'entraîner le curseur (3) en translation axiale, lors de la rotation axiale de l'enveloppe spiralée (4).According to the previous embodiment, the inverted sheath (20) with zipper(s) (10) makes it possible to drive the slider (3) in axial translation, during the axial rotation of the spiral casing (4).

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la gaine en matière synthétique est un guide (21). Ainsi un étui tournant, tel qu'illustré à la figure 9, comprend une chemise métallique (5) emmanchée sur un guide (21). Ce dernier est emmanché sur la partie supérieure d'une pièce communément appelée noix (22) (ou nut en langue anglaise). Une partie inférieure d'un curseur (3), destiné à recevoir un produit cosmétique, à savoir une tige, est enchâssée dans une partie intérieure filetée de la noix (22). Le curseur (3) est entraîné en translation axiale à l'intérieur du guide (21) par la rotation de la noix (22).According to another embodiment, the plastic sheath is a guide (21). Thus a rotating case, as illustrated in figure 9 , comprises a metal jacket (5) fitted onto a guide (21). The latter is fitted onto the upper part of a piece commonly called a nut (22) (or nut in English). A lower part of a slider (3), intended to receive a cosmetic product, namely a rod, is embedded in a threaded inner part of the nut (22). The slider (3) is driven in axial translation inside the guide (21) by the rotation of the nut (22).
