Definitions
- This disclosure relates to a pot, and more particularly a pot capable of containing a solid, liquid or pasty product. Such a pot can be used in particular for the packaging of cosmetic products.
- a pot comprising a body having a cavity adapted to contain a solid, liquid or pasty product, the cavity having an opening, and a lid movable relative to the body, a first element among the body and the lid comprising an engagement element , a second element among the body and the cover comprising a closing tab movable between an engaged position in which, when the lid is in a closed position in which the cover closes the opening, the closing tab cooperates with the engagement element and thus maintains the cover in the closed position, and a disengaged position in which the closure tab does not cooperate with the engagement element, so as to allow movement of the cover relative to the body.
- the engagement element and the closure tab take the form of two hooks which can engage with each other.
- the closure tab is rigidly connected to a lateral push button, so that pressure exerted on the push button causes the closure tab to pass from the engaged position to the disengaged position, thus allowing the lid to be opened.
- the push button is biased by a spring.
- the invention aims at least in part to remedy this drawback and to provide a pot for which the maintenance in the closed position is more reliable.
- the pot comprises a locking tab, movable between a locked position in which the locking tab blocks the closure tab in the engaged position, and an unlocked position in which the closure tab is movable between the engaged position and the disengaged position, and an actuator configured to move the locking tab between the locked position and the unlocked position.
- the locking tab locks the closure tab in the engaged position.
- no unwanted movement of the closure tab is allowed, whereby the closure tab effectively cooperates with the engaging member and holds the cover in the closed position reliably.
- the closed position corresponds to the situation in which the pot is closed.
- the second element includes the locking tab.
- the closure tab and the locking tab are therefore provided on the same element among the body and the cover. Their cooperation is thus facilitated.
- the closure tab is rotatable. Compared to sliding, rotation causes little friction, which reduces wear on parts.
- the pot comprises return means configured to return the closure tab to the disengaged position.
- return means configured to return the closure tab to the disengaged position.
- the return means can be an elastic element such as a spring, a magnet, or any element capable of exerting a return force.
- the pot comprises a stop part and in the released position, the closure tab is in abutment against said stop part.
- the stroke of the closing tab is therefore precisely delimited.
- the size of the closing tab taking into account its different positions, remains limited.
- the locking tab is rigidly linked to the actuator. Its actuation is therefore reliable, since movement of the actuator directly results in movement of the locking tab.
- the closure tab includes a lug configured to cooperate with the locking tab.
- the presence of a lug makes the cooperation of the locking tab and the closing tab more precise.
- the actuator is a push button movable in translation.
- the locking tab when the locking tab is rigidly linked to the actuator, the locking tab is movable in translation in the direction of translation of the actuator.
- the push button can be located in the second element, that is to say in the same element, among the body and the cover, as the closing tab.
- a return element such as a spring can be configured to return the push button to its rest position after it has been actuated.
- the push button comprises a support wall and a sliding wall substantially perpendicular to the support wall, the locking tab being formed on the sliding wall.
- the support wall is the wall intended to receive a support force aimed at actuating the push button.
- the sliding wall can define the direction in which the push button slides when a force is exerted transversely to the supporting wall.
- the pot further comprises a base, the push button cooperating with the base via a heart-travel cam.
- the core path cam will be presented in more detail later.
- the push button is movable between two stable positions. If a return element tends to move the push button away from the base, the push button passage between the two stable positions is effected by pressing the push button, where appropriate on the support wall.
- the push button comprises a skirt cooperating with a skirt of the base.
- the skirts can cooperate by sliding one against the other when the push button is translated relative to the base. The presence of such skirts limits the resonance caused by the movement of the push button.
- the first element is the body and the second element is the cover.
- the pot opening mechanism comprising in particular the closing tab and possibly the actuator, is therefore housed in the cover.
- first element and the second element are articulated with respect to each other, for example by means of a hinge.
- the cover further includes a gasket.
- the gasket can be located along the opening. The seal thus ensures the seal between the opening and the cover which, in the closed position, closes the opening.
- the actuator is configured to compress the seal, especially axially, when the locking tab is or passes into the locked position.
- the compression can be performed indirectly, by a part itself actuated by the actuator.
- the passage of the locking tab in the locked position and the corresponding locking of the pot is accompanied by sealing of the cavity by means of the corresponding actuation, simultaneous or not, of the seal.
- the actuator can be configured to leave the seal at rest when the locking tab is in the unlocked position.
- the seal can be configured to provide a seal on a surface normal to its direction of compression.

- the locking tab 42 is in a locked position in which the locking tab 42 locks the closure tab 70 in the engaged position. Indeed, as can be seen on the figure 1 , any rotation of the closing tab 70 around its pivot 72 is impossible because the lug 76 bears against the locking tab 42. Thus, the pot 100 is securely closed.
- the push button 40 acts as an actuator configured to move the locking tab 42 between the locked position and the unlocked position.
- the actuator here by pressing on the bearing wall 41a of the push button 40.
- the user exerts an axial pressure along the axis of the cover X.
- the cam arms 38 are in the first stable position 38a indicated on the figure 4 .
- the push button 40 countering the return effect of the spring 54, the cam arms 38 follow the heart path 48 in the direction of the arrows on the figure 4 and reach the second stable position 38b.
- the push button 40 is then in the position shown on the figure 5 .
- pressing the push button 40 allows a translation of the push button 40 along the axis of the cover X, away from the body 10.
- the push button 40 is therefore moved away from the body 10 by the spring 54, up to 'so that it is retained by the heart travel cam.
- the locking tab 42 which is integral in translation with the push button 40, also moves away from the body 10. In doing so, it is no longer in contact with the lug 76 nor, more generally, with the closing tab. 70.
- the locking tab 42 is therefore in an unlocked position, in which the closing tab 70 is movable between the engaged position and the released position. Being returned by the spring 78, the closing tab 70 pivots and passes from the engaged position to the disengaged position shown on the figure 5 . In this position, the closure tab 70 does not cooperate with the engagement element 14e and the user is free to open the pot 100. In this case, the opening of the pot 100 is assisted, if it does not. 'is automatic, due to the presence of the spring 16 which tends to cause the cover 20 to leave its closed position.
- the base 30 comprises a stop part 37 provided so that when the closing tab 70 is in the released position, the closing tab 70 is in abutment against the stop part 37.
- the stop part 37 therefore defines , with the engagement element 14e, the rotational travel of the closing tab 70.
- the stopper 37 limits the rotation of the closing tab 70 so that its passage from the disengaged position to the engaged position can be easily driven by the locking tab 42, as will now be described.
- the user can place the cover 20 in the closed position, then press the push button 40 serving as an actuator.
- the cam arms 38 move from the second stable position 38b to the first stable position 38a following the direction of the arrows indicated on the figure. figure 4 .
- the locking tab 42 is moved in the direction of the body 10.
- the locking tab 42 cooperates, in this movement, with the lug 76 and tends to replace the closing tab 70 in the engaged position, countering the effect of the spring 78.
- the first stable position 38a is again reached, the situation is again that shown in figure 1 : closed position of the cover 20, engaged position of the closure tab 70 and locked position of the locking tab 42.
- the figure 6 illustrates a second embodiment of a pot 200.
- This embodiment differs essentially from the first by the cooperation of the base 130, of the push button 140 and of the insert 160.
- the push button 140 and the insert 160 respectively comprise first and second latching elements 146, 166 which are mounted fixed with respect to one another.
- the insert 160 is integral in translation, in particular along the X axis of the cover, with the push button 140.
- the heart paths 148 are no longer provided on the push button 140 but on the insert 160.
- the cam arms 138 are still provided on the base 130, but on the periphery of the base 130, outside the skirt 135.
- FIG. 8 is a view in a plane similar to that of the figure 6 .
- the closure tab 170 is in the released position.
- the insert 160 has moved away from the body 110, thus freeing the seal 169 from the opening 111b and, where appropriate, from the seal 118.
- the seal 169 is integral in translation with the push button 140, here via the insert 160.
- the figure 9 illustrates in perspective the push button 140 according to the second embodiment.
- the locking tab 142 has, at its junction with the sliding wall 141b, a radial offset 141c.
- This 141c offset aims to compensate for the radial projection towards the inside of the ring 150 (see figure 8 ).
- the support wall 141a of the push button 140 is level with the radial projection of the ring 150 which is adjacent to it.
- the insert 160 is very similar to the insert 60 of the first embodiment, except for the presence of the heart paths 148. In addition, being movable relative to the base 130, the insert 160 does not include any element corresponding to the slots 67.
- the figure 11 illustrates the base 130 in perspective.
- the orifice 131 intended to receive the pivot of the closing tab 170 is particularly visible.
- a notch 131a configured to act as a support for the spring 78.
- a similar notch can be provided in the first embodiment (see figure 3 ).
- the pot 200 does not include a cover similar to the cover 68.
- the surface of the base 130 which faces the body 110 is a solid surface and can be decorated in itself.
- pedestal 130 does not include guides similar to guides 34.
- push button 140 does not include guides similar to guides 44. Since cam arms 138 are provided outside of the guide. skirt 135 and are diametrically opposed, they are sufficiently spaced to provide sufficient guidance of the push button 140 and of the insert 160 relative to the base.

Description
Le présent exposé concerne un pot, et plus particulièrement un pot apte à contenir un produit solide, liquide ou pâteux. Un tel pot peut être utilisé en particulier pour le conditionnement de produits cosmétiques.This disclosure relates to a pot, and more particularly a pot capable of containing a solid, liquid or pasty product. Such a pot can be used in particular for the packaging of cosmetic products.
On connaît, par exemple de la publication internationale
Dans le pot divulgué par
Dans un tel pot, l'engagement de la patte de fermeture dans l'élément d'engagement est peu fiable et le pot peut s'ouvrir de manière intempestive, renversant alors son contenu, voir également la
L'invention vise au moins à remédier en partie à cet inconvénient et à proposer un pot pour lequel le maintien en position d'obturation est plus fiable.The invention aims at least in part to remedy this drawback and to provide a pot for which the maintenance in the closed position is more reliable.
Ce but est atteint grâce au fait que le pot comprend une languette de blocage, mobile entre une position verrouillée dans laquelle la languette de blocage bloque la patte de fermeture dans la position engagée, et une position déverrouillée dans laquelle la patte de fermeture est mobile entre la position engagée et la position dégagée, et un actionneur configuré pour mouvoir la languette de blocage entre la position verrouillée et la position déverrouillée.This goal is achieved by the fact that the pot comprises a locking tab, movable between a locked position in which the locking tab blocks the closure tab in the engaged position, and an unlocked position in which the closure tab is movable between the engaged position and the disengaged position, and an actuator configured to move the locking tab between the locked position and the unlocked position.
En position verrouillée, la languette de blocage bloque la patte de fermeture dans la position engagée. Ainsi, aucun mouvement intempestif de la patte de fermeture n'est permis, ce par quoi la patte de fermeture coopère efficacement avec l'élément d'engagement et maintient le couvercle dans la position d'obturation de manière fiable. La position d'obturation correspond à la situation dans lequel le pot est fermé.In the locked position, the locking tab locks the closure tab in the engaged position. Thus, no unwanted movement of the closure tab is allowed, whereby the closure tab effectively cooperates with the engaging member and holds the cover in the closed position reliably. The closed position corresponds to the situation in which the pot is closed.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le deuxième élément comprend la languette de blocage. La patte de fermeture et la languette de blocage sont donc prévues sur le même élément parmi le corps et le couvercle. Leur coopération est ainsi facilitée.In some embodiments, the second element includes the locking tab. The closure tab and the locking tab are therefore provided on the same element among the body and the cover. Their cooperation is thus facilitated.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, la patte de fermeture est mobile en rotation. Par rapport à un glissement, une rotation entraîne peu de frottement, ce qui diminue l'usure des pièces.In some embodiments, the closure tab is rotatable. Compared to sliding, rotation causes little friction, which reduces wear on parts.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le pot comprend des moyens de rappel configurés pour rappeler la patte de fermeture dans la position dégagée. Ainsi, lorsque la patte de fermeture est bloquée par la languette de blocage, elle est immobile indépendamment des moyens de rappel et demeure en position engagée. En revanche, lorsque la languette de blocage est en position déverrouillée et ne bloque plus la patte de fermeture, la patte de fermeture est mue par les moyens de rappels dans la position dégagée. L'ouverture du pot est ainsi facilitée.In some embodiments, the pot comprises return means configured to return the closure tab to the disengaged position. Thus, when the closing tab is blocked by the locking tab, it is stationary independently of the return means and remains in the engaged position. On the other hand, when the locking tab is in the unlocked position and no longer blocks the closure, the closure tab is moved by the return means into the released position. The opening of the pot is thus facilitated.
Les moyens de rappels peuvent être un élément élastique tel qu'un ressort, un aimant, ou tout élément apte à exercer une force de rappel.The return means can be an elastic element such as a spring, a magnet, or any element capable of exerting a return force.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le pot comprend une pièce d'arrêt et en position dégagée, la patte de fermeture est en butée contre ladite pièce d'arrêt. La course de la patte de fermeture est donc précisément délimitée. Par suite, l'encombrement de la patte de fermeture compte-tenu de ses différentes positions reste limité.In certain embodiments, the pot comprises a stop part and in the released position, the closure tab is in abutment against said stop part. The stroke of the closing tab is therefore precisely delimited. As a result, the size of the closing tab, taking into account its different positions, remains limited.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, la languette de blocage est rigidement liée à l'actionneur. Son actionnement est donc fiable, puisqu'un mouvement de l'actionneur résulte directement en un mouvement de la languette de blocage.In some embodiments, the locking tab is rigidly linked to the actuator. Its actuation is therefore reliable, since movement of the actuator directly results in movement of the locking tab.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, la patte de fermeture comprend un ergot configuré pour coopérer avec la languette de blocage. La présence d'un ergot rend plus précise la coopération de la languette de blocage et de la patte de fermeture.In some embodiments, the closure tab includes a lug configured to cooperate with the locking tab. The presence of a lug makes the cooperation of the locking tab and the closing tab more precise.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, l'actionneur est un bouton poussoir mobile en translation. En particulier, lorsque la languette de blocage est rigidement liée à l'actionneur, la languette de blocage est mobile en translation selon la direction de translation de l'actionneur.In certain embodiments, the actuator is a push button movable in translation. In particular, when the locking tab is rigidly linked to the actuator, the locking tab is movable in translation in the direction of translation of the actuator.
Le bouton poussoir peut être situé dans le deuxième élément, c'est-à-dire dans le même élément, parmi le corps et le couvercle, que la patte de fermeture.The push button can be located in the second element, that is to say in the same element, among the body and the cover, as the closing tab.
Un élément de rappel tel qu'un ressort peut être configuré pour rappeler le bouton poussoir dans sa position de repos après son actionnement.A return element such as a spring can be configured to return the push button to its rest position after it has been actuated.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le bouton poussoir comprend une paroi d'appui et une paroi de coulissement sensiblement perpendiculaire à la paroi d'appui, la languette de blocage étant formée sur la paroi de coulissement. La paroi d'appui est la paroi destinée à recevoir une force d'appui visant à actionner le bouton poussoir. La paroi de coulissement peut définir la direction dans laquelle le bouton poussoir coulisse lorsqu'une force est exercée transversalement à la paroi d'appui.In some embodiments, the push button comprises a support wall and a sliding wall substantially perpendicular to the support wall, the locking tab being formed on the sliding wall. The support wall is the wall intended to receive a support force aimed at actuating the push button. The sliding wall can define the direction in which the push button slides when a force is exerted transversely to the supporting wall.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le pot comprend en outre un socle, le bouton poussoir coopérant avec le socle par une came à parcours cœur. La came à parcours cœur sera présentée plus en détail par la suite. De cette façon, le bouton poussoir est mobile entre deux positions stables. Si un élément de rappel tend à éloigner le bouton poussoir du socle, le passage du bouton poussoir entre les deux positions stables s'effectue par des pressions sur le bouton poussoir, le cas échéant sur la paroi d'appui.In certain embodiments, the pot further comprises a base, the push button cooperating with the base via a heart-travel cam. The core path cam will be presented in more detail later. In this way, the push button is movable between two stable positions. If a return element tends to move the push button away from the base, the push button passage between the two stable positions is effected by pressing the push button, where appropriate on the support wall.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le bouton-poussoir comprend une jupe coopérant avec une jupe du socle. Par exemple, les jupes peuvent coopérer par glissement l'une contre l'autre lorsque le bouton poussoir est translaté par rapport au socle. La présence de telles jupes limite la résonance provoquée par le mouvement du bouton poussoir.In certain embodiments, the push button comprises a skirt cooperating with a skirt of the base. For example, the skirts can cooperate by sliding one against the other when the push button is translated relative to the base. The presence of such skirts limits the resonance caused by the movement of the push button.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le premier élément est le corps et le deuxième élément est le couvercle. Le mécanisme d'ouverture du pot, comprenant notamment la patte de fermeture et éventuellement l'actionneur, est donc logé dans le couvercle.In some embodiments, the first element is the body and the second element is the cover. The pot opening mechanism, comprising in particular the closing tab and possibly the actuator, is therefore housed in the cover.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le premier élément et le deuxième élément sont articulés l'un par rapport à l'autre, par exemple au moyen d'une charnière.In certain embodiments, the first element and the second element are articulated with respect to each other, for example by means of a hinge.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, le couvercle comprend en outre un joint d'étanchéité. Le joint d'étanchéité peut être situé le long de l'ouverture. Le joint d'étanchéité assure ainsi l'étanchéité entre l'ouverture et le couvercle qui, en position d'obturation, obture l'ouverture.In some embodiments, the cover further includes a gasket. The gasket can be located along the opening. The seal thus ensures the seal between the opening and the cover which, in the closed position, closes the opening.
Dans certains modes de réalisation, l'actionneur est configuré pour comprimer le joint d'étanchéité, notamment de manière axiale, lorsque la languette de blocage est ou passe dans la position verrouillée. La compression peut être effectuée indirectement, par une pièce actionnée elle-même par l'actionneur. Ainsi, le passage de la languette de blocage en position verrouillée et le verrouillage correspondant du pot s'accompagne d'une mise en étanchéité de la cavité grâce à l'actionnement correspondant, simultané ou non, du joint d'étanchéité.In some embodiments, the actuator is configured to compress the seal, especially axially, when the locking tab is or passes into the locked position. The compression can be performed indirectly, by a part itself actuated by the actuator. Thus, the passage of the locking tab in the locked position and the corresponding locking of the pot is accompanied by sealing of the cavity by means of the corresponding actuation, simultaneous or not, of the seal.
En outre, l'actionneur peut être configuré pour laisser le joint d'étanchéité au repos lorsque la languette de blocage est dans la position déverrouillée.Additionally, the actuator can be configured to leave the seal at rest when the locking tab is in the unlocked position.
De manière plus générale, le joint peut être configuré pour réaliser une étanchéité sur une surface normale à sa direction de compression.More generally, the seal can be configured to provide a seal on a surface normal to its direction of compression.

La structure d'un pot selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention va être détaillée en référence aux
Comme indiqué précédemment, la
Le corps 10 présente une cavité apte à contenir un produit 12 solide, liquide ou pâteux, la cavité présentant une ouverture. En l'espèce, le corps comprend un habillage 10a dans lequel est disposée une cuve 11. La cuve 11 comprend un rebord 11a et s'ouvre sur l'ouverture 11b (voir
Le couvercle 20 peut être positionné dans une position d'obturation dans laquelle le couvercle 20 obture l'ouverture 11b. Le pot 100 est alors considéré comme fermé. Il s'agit de la position représentée sur la
La plaquette 14 comprend en outre des éléments d'indexation 14d (voir
Comme illustré sur la
De manière optionnelle, le corps 10 peut comprendre un opercule 18. Comme représenté sur la
Le couvercle 20 comprend un socle 30 et un bouton poussoir 40. Le couvercle 20, ici plus précisément le socle 30, peut comprendre une charnière 32 pour l'articulation du couvercle 20 avec le corps 10. En l'espèce, la charnière 32 comprend des gonds 32a et une partie de masquage 32b. Les gonds 32a sont configurés pour recevoir des tiges 17. Par ailleurs, les tiges 17 sont configurées pour être insérées dans des supports de gonds 15 prévus sur la plaquette 14. Ainsi, l'articulation des gonds 32a par rapport aux supports de gonds 15 forme une charnière. La charnière ainsi formée est mobile en rotation autour de l'axe défini par les tiges 17.The
Les supports de gonds 15 font saillie, à partir de la portion périphérique 14a, vers l'intérieur de l'habillage 10a. La plaquette 14 comprend un orifice 14c prévu pour l'insertion de la charnière 32, ce qui permet d'aligner la charnière 32 avec les supports de gonds 15. La partie de masquage 32b est configurée pour masquer l'orifice 14c et les gonds 32a, en particulier lorsque le pot 100 est en position ouverte. A cet effet, la partie de masquage 32b est déportée par rapport aux tiges 17 définissant l'axe de pivot de la charnière 32, en direction du côté duquel s'ouvre le pot 100.The hinge supports 15 protrude from the
Les gonds 32a sont configurés pour accueillir un élément de rappel, en l'occurrence un ressort 16. En l'espèce, comme illustré sur la
Le socle 30 coopère avec un bouton poussoir 40. Le bouton poussoir 40 comprend une paroi d'appui 41a et une paroi de coulissement 41b sensiblement perpendiculaire à la paroi d'appui 41a. Le bouton poussoir 40, et plus particulièrement la paroi d'appui 41a, donne sur l'extérieur du couvercle 20. Comme indiqué précédemment et comme illustré sur la
Le bouton poussoir 40 comprend également des protubérances 44 aptes à coopérer avec des guides 34 du socle 30. En l'espèce, les protubérances 44 sont des tiges dont la section transversale est une croix. Dans cet exemple, les guides 34 sont des cylindres creux dont le diamètre intérieur est égal ou légèrement inférieur à la largeur de la section en croix. Ici, le socle 30 comprend deux guides 34 et le bouton poussoir 40 comprend deux protubérances 44 correspondantes. Les protubérances 44 sont configurées pour être insérées dans les guides 34 de façon à former une liaison glissière configurée pour guider le bouton poussoir 40 par rapport au socle 30.The
Par ailleurs, le socle 30 et le bouton poussoir 40 comprennent des jupes respectives 35, 45, configurées pour coopérer de sorte à former une liaison glissière. La jupe 35 du socle 30 fait saillie vers le bouton poussoir 40. La jupe 45 du bouton poussoir 40 fait saillie vers le socle 30. Dans le présent mode de réalisation, les jupes 35, 45 sont cylindriques. Comme on peut le voir sur la
De plus, comme il ressort de la
Le bouton poussoir 40 et le socle 30 coopèrent par translation relative l'un par rapport à l'autre. En d'autres termes, le bouton poussoir 40 est mobile en translation, en l'espèce dans la direction dans laquelle s'étend la paroi de coulissement 41b, ici perpendiculairement à la paroi d'appui 41a. La direction de translation du bouton poussoir 40 est notée X sur la
Le socle 30 et le bouton poussoir 40 coopèrent par une came à parcours cœur. A cet effet, le socle comprend au moins un bras de came 38, ici deux (voir
Le couvercle 20 comprend en outre une bague 50. Dans ce mode de réalisation, la bague 50 est sensiblement annulaire. La bague 50 forme la périphérie extérieure latérale du couvercle 20. Comme on peut le voir sur la
La bague 50 comprend des crans 52 (voir
Le couvercle 20 comprend en outre un insert 60. L'insert 60 comprend un corps d'insert 62 duquel fait saillie un rail 64. Le rail 64, ainsi éventuellement que le corps d'insert 62, a une forme, en section transversale à l'axe du couvercle X, qui épouse sensiblement la forme de l'ouverture 11b. En outre, l'insert 60 comprend des deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66, ici trois deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66. Il pourrait y avoir plus ou moins de deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66. Les deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66 font saillie en direction du bouton poussoir 40. L'extrémité distale des deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66 est munie d'un épaulement 66a formant butée et comme on l'a vu précédemment, configuré pour permettre son assemblage par encliquetage avec les premiers éléments de glissière 46.The
Les deuxièmes éléments de glissière 66 sont aptes à coopérer avec les premiers éléments de glissière 46 déjà décrits. Leur forme complémentaire permettant leur translation relative est bien visible sur la
Les premiers et deuxièmes éléments de glissière 46, 66 définissent par leur coopération une course de translation du bouton poussoir 40 par rapport à l'insert 60. Par exemple, l'épaulement 46a est mobile en translation entre l'épaulement 66a et le corps d'insert 62.The first and
L'insert 60 peut être assemblé au socle 30, du côté du corps 10. Par exemple, l'assemblage peut être effectué par emboîtement de créneaux 67 de l'insert 60 dans des éléments correspondants du socle 30.The
Le couvercle 60 comprend en outre un cache 68. Comme illustré sur la
Le couvercle 20 comprend en outre un joint 69 ayant une forme du type tore creux. Le joint 69 comprend une fente 69a permettant son montage sur le rail 64 de l'insert 60. Dans ce mode de réalisation, la fente 69a parcourt le joint 69 sur toute sa longueur. Une fois monté, dans la mesure où la forme du joint 69 correspond à celle de l'ouverture 11b, le joint 69 réalise l'étanchéité de la fermeture opérée par l'opercule 18, comme on peut le voir sur la
Le joint 69 est configuré pour réaliser une étanchéité axiale, c'est-à-dire une étanchéité selon l'axe X du couvercle 20. En d'autres termes, le joint 69 réalise une étanchéité selon une surface normale à l'axe X du couvercle 20.The
En outre, le joint 69 peut être configuré pour réaliser une étanchéité dans sa direction de compression, c'est-à-dire une étanchéité sur une surface normale à sa direction de compression. Sur l'exemple de la
Comme indiqué précédemment, le couvercle 20 comprend également une patte de fermeture 70. La patte de fermeture 70 comprend un pivot 72 configuré pour être reçu dans un orifice correspondant 31 du socle 30. Ainsi, la patte de fermeture 70 est en rotation, autour du pivot 72, par rapport au socle 30. Dans le présent mode de réalisation, le pivot 72 est perpendiculaire à l'axe du couvercle X. Le pivot 72 est, dans cet exemple, placé à une extrémité de la patte de fermeture 70.As indicated above, the
La patte de fermeture 70 comprend, à son extrémité opposée au pivot 72, un crochet 74. Le crochet 74 désigne toute forme apte à s'engager avec un élément d'engagement 14e correspondant, prévu en l'occurrence dans la plaquette 14. Le crochet 74 est prévu du côté de la patte de fermeture 70 le plus proche du corps 10, tandis que le pivot 72 est prévu du côté de la patte de fermeture 70 le plus éloigné du corps 10, soit ici le plus proche du bouton poussoir 40.The
La patte de fermeture 70 comprend en outre un ergot 76, faisant saillie radialement par rapport à l'axe du couvercle X, en direction de la languette de blocage 42. L'ergot 76 comprend une surface biseautée faisant face à la languette de blocage 42 et à la paroi d'appui 41a.The
Le couvercle 20 est aussi muni de moyens de rappel configurés pour rappeler la patte de fermeture 70 dans la position dégagée, c'est-à-dire, comme indiqué précédemment, dans une position dans laquelle la patte de fermeture 70 ne coopère pas avec l'élément d'engagement 14e. Dans le présent mode de réalisation, les moyens de rappel comprennent un ressort 78. Le ressort 78 est monté en torsion entre le socle 30 et la patte de fermeture 70 de façon à faire pivoter la patte de fermeture 70 en l'éloignant de l'élément d'engagement 14e.The
Alternativement ou en complément, les moyens de rappel pourraient comprendre un aimant, ou encore un poids destiné à faire basculer la patte de fermeture par gravité lorsque le pot 100 est dans sa position normale d'utilisation.Alternatively or in addition, the return means could comprise a magnet, or even a weight intended to tilt the closing tab by gravity when the
Le fonctionnement du pot 100 va maintenant être détaillé en se référant aux
Sur la
Dans ce mode de réalisation, le bouton poussoir 40 fait office d'actionneur configuré pour mouvoir la languette de blocage 42 entre la position verrouillée et la position déverrouillée.In this embodiment, the
Lorsqu'un utilisateur souhaite déverrouiller le pot 100, il active l'actionneur, ici en appuyant sur la paroi d'appui 41a du bouton poussoir 40. L'utilisateur exerce une pression axiale selon l'axe du couvercle X. Avant d'appuyer, les bras de came 38 sont dans la première position stable 38a indiquée sur la
Comme illustré sur la
La languette de blocage 42, qui est solidaire en translation avec le bouton poussoir 40, s'éloigne également du corps 10.
