Definitions

  • the present invention relates to devices for packaging and dispensing cosmetic products, including care products.
  • Patent FR 2 736 331 describes a container equipped with a pump and tilting around an equilibrium position as a function of its degree of filling.
  • coloring products are likely to strongly stain the supports on which they could be accidentally sprayed.
  • the coloring products can comprise two components to be mixed extemporaneously, in particular an oxidant and a dye.
  • these components can be relatively difficult to mix.
  • the invention aims to meet all or part of these needs.
  • the invention relates to a container comprising an applicator part provided with at least one outlet orifice making it possible to distribute a product contained inside, in particular a product for coloring the hair, this container having a first face configured in such a way that, when the container rests by this first face on a horizontal flat surface, a reduction in the quantity of product in the container causes it to tip over without the product being able to s' flow through said orifice.
  • the container may advantageously include an applicator part, intended to come into contact with a surface to be treated during use.
  • the first face is configured so that the tilting of the container tends to move the outlet orifice downward.
  • a certain quantity of product can remain, inside the container, in the vicinity of the outlet orifice when the container is rested, which reduces the time necessary for the product to reach the outlet orifice at the time of use.
  • the treatment of the hair can thus be carried out more quickly, with greater precision or more comfortably.
  • the container is configured so that, when it rests by the first face on the horizontal flat surface and that it contains the product to be dispensed, the center of gravity of the assembly is moves to the outlet when the amount of product in the container decreases.
  • the container can also be arranged in such a way that, when it rests on the horizontal face on the first face and contains the product to be dispensed, it rocks around axes instantaneous rotation geometries parallel to each other and to this surface when the quantity of product in the container decreases.
  • any quantity of product contained in the container can unequivocally provide a corresponding stable equilibrium position.
  • the container can be arranged so that whatever the degree of filling of the container, it remains in stable equilibrium.
  • the container comprises a body whose width is equal, to within 25%, to its length, better to within 15%.
  • a form can facilitate the mixing of several components introduced into the container, in particular an oxidant and a dye.
  • the container may include a body and a dispensing head, which may include the applicator portion.
  • the body can be elongated along a longitudinal axis and the dispensing head can extend along an axis forming a non-zero angle with the longitudinal axis.
  • the angle between the axis of the dispensing head and the longitudinal axis of the container body can in particular be between 10 and 30 °, for example between 15 and 25 °.
  • the applicator part can be arranged, in an exemplary implementation of the invention, for combing the hair, and can comprise at least one tooth oriented substantially parallel to an axis of the dispensing head.
  • the applicator part may in particular comprise at least one row of teeth, for example two rows of substantially parallel teeth.
  • the outlet orifice can open out between these rows of teeth.
  • at least one tooth may be hollow and the outlet orifice may open at the end of this tooth or in the vicinity of this end.
  • the applicator part can be produced for example by injection of plastic material, for example PE, PP, and in general polyolefins, polyamide, polyester, PVC, polymethyl methacrylate, etc.
  • plastic material for example PE, PP, and in general polyolefins, polyamide, polyester, PVC, polymethyl methacrylate, etc.
  • the applicator part may also include something other than teeth, in particular tufts of hair or a foam.
  • the first face can be convex outward.
  • the container may comprise, on a second face opposite to the first, at least one recess, in particular a recess located substantially in the center of the second face.
  • the second face may have a generally convex shape towards the outside, apart from said recess.
  • the wall of the container defining the first face may have a constant thickness.
  • the capacity of the container can be for example between 10 and 500 ml, being for example approximately 150 ml.
  • the subject of the invention is also, independently or in combination with the above, a container comprising at least one outlet orifice for dispensing a product contained inside, in particular a product for coloring the hair, this container having a first face and a second face opposite the first, the first face being configured so that, when the container rests by this first face on a horizontal flat surface, a reduction in the quantity of product in the container causes a tilting of the latter in that the product cannot flow through said outlet orifice, the second face opposite to the first comprising at least one recess, in particular a recess located substantially in the center of said second face.
  • the subject of the invention is also, independently or in combination with the above, a container comprising at least one outlet orifice making it possible to distribute a product contained inside, in particular a product for coloring the hair, the container having a first face configured so that, when the container rests by this first face on a horizontal flat surface, a reduction in the quantity of product in the container causes the container to tilt without the product being able to s '' flow through said outlet, a given amount of product, contained in the container, defining in a one-to-one manner a corresponding stable equilibrium position.
  • the subject of the invention is also, independently or in combination with the above, a container comprising at least one outlet orifice making it possible to distribute a product contained inside, in particular a product for coloring the hair, this container having a first face configured so that, when the container rests by this first face on a horizontal flat surface, a reduction in the quantity of product in the container causes the container to tilt without the product being able to flow out through said outlet, said container being configured so that manual pressure on the latter reduces its internal volume and allows the distribution of said product by means of the outlet.
  • the container 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in particular comprises a body 10 and a dispensing head 20.
  • the body 10 has upper and lower two opposite main faces, namely a first face 12 on which the container rests when not in use, and a second face 13 opposite the first.
  • the wall of the container which defines the first face 12 may have a constant thickness, as illustrated.
  • the dispensing head 20 can be produced and assembled with the rest of the container 1 in multiple ways.
  • An orifice 26 allowing the product to exit opens out between the rows 23 and 24 of teeth, this orifice 26 being produced through the wall 27 of the applicator part 22 on which the teeth connect. It is not beyond the scope of the present invention if the dispensing head has more than one orifice. In a variant not illustrated, at least one product outlet orifice opens near the end or at the end of at least one tooth, the latter being hollow.
  • the first face 12 is arranged so as to allow the container 1 to tilt on the surface S under the effect of the torque generated by the displacement of the center of gravity, which allows the container to reach whatever its degree of filling a stable equilibrium position.
