Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for packaging a product, in particular a solid cosmetic product, in the form of a sample.
  • the documents FR 2 740 013, US 2,061,139, FR 2 821 061 and US 5,161,688 describe packaging for a sample of cosmetic product solid or pasty which can be inserted in a publication.
  • the packaging consists of a plate which has a cavity central in which the product is contained, via a cup or directly in the cavity. None of these documents describes a packaging with an applicator. However, it may be interesting to provide with the sample of produces an applicator allowing the user to apply the product.
  • Patent application WO88 / 07825 describes this type of packaging.
  • the packaging consists of two card-type plates articulated between them, one of them being crossed by several cavities which contain a cosmetic product.
  • This plate also contains a housing in the form of an elongated slot which has a bottom and which is designed to receive an applicator.
  • the applicator is housed inside the slot in which it is inserted by force. It is then necessary to provide means for holding the applicator inside the plate.
  • it is relatively difficult to use a thin plate without the applicator does not increase the total thickness of the packaging once housed in the slot.
  • a device for packaging of a product comprising a generally planar support in the form of a plate comprising two faces, said support comprising at least one cavity whose depth is less than or equal to the thickness of the plate, said cavity opening onto at at least one of the faces of the support by a first opening, said cavity containing the product.
  • the device can be characterized in that it includes a product application member, connected to the support by a junction zone suitable for break in order to separate the application member from the support.
  • the device containing a cosmetic product being associated with an organ application the user is not obliged to use her fingers to make up, or else provide a separate application body.
  • the organ of application being integral with the support, we limit the risk of losing it because it can hardly separate from the support without the user separating it voluntarily.
  • the applicator member can be produced with the support. from a single piece, for example by molding or cutting, so the manufacturing process is relatively simple. We break free in particular of any step of setting up the application member in the support, necessary step in the packaging manufacturing process described in patent application WO88 / 07825. We can thus achieve a cheap device.
  • the applicator member can be formed in the extension of the support and have a thickness less than or equal to that of the support. We thus limit maximum thickness of the device so that it can be inserted into a magazine for example.
  • the applicator member may include a shape-gripping portion elongated and at least one applicator portion formed at one end of the grip portion. We can also provide two applicator portions, each being formed at one end of the gripping portion.
  • the part applicator is for example made of a foam, a woven material or nonwoven, flocked material or pile.
  • the applicator portion is by example pasted on the applicator member. It can be fitted on the end of the applicator member.
  • the gripping portion is flat shape and that it has two faces, the applicator portion can be in the form of a tablet, fixed for example on one side only, or on the of them.
  • the junction zone can consist of a zone of thickness less than the thickness of the support. It can extend continuously along the organ application.
  • the junction area can also be made up of several legs, spaced along the applicator member, the legs may be same thickness as the support or less.
  • the cavity can also open out on the second face of the support, an adhesive sheet being fixed on said face so as to close the second opening in order to form the bottom of the cavity.
  • the adhesive sheet can be glued in such a way that it delimits, at least in part, a housing designed to receive an application member.
  • Leaf adhesive constituting the bottom the cavity is used to delimit a housing able to receive an application device. This limits the number of elements components of the packaging and therefore the steps for producing the device while creating a device that can perform the same functions as a box of classic makeup. This gives a little conditioning device expensive.
  • the housing can be delimited by a end portion of the sheet which is rolled up on itself so as to form accommodation.
  • the end portion rolled up on itself has an edge which can be stuck on the sheet, the rest of the portion not being covered with glue.
  • the housing can be delimited in part by a portion of the sheet which is not glued to the support, and partly by a area of the support located opposite the portion of the sheet that is not glued.
  • the area of the support partially delimiting the housing can be a portion of a face of the support or alternatively the edge of the support.
  • the adhesive sheet may be formed from one or more layers of a material chosen from thermoplastic materials, in particular polyolefins or polyesters, and aluminum.
  • the adhesive sheet can be covered with a printing, for example an inscription relating to the product, or a motif decorative.
  • the device may include a cover, of generally planar shape, articulated on the support.
  • the adhesive sheet can be partially glued on a face of the cover so as to form the articulation between the support and the lid.
  • the device may also include a mirror label stuck on one of the sides of the cover. This label can also be stuck in part on one of the faces of the support so as to form the articulation between the holder and cover.
  • the device may also include a removable cover closing off removably the first opening, said cover being to be removed prior to first use to access the product.
  • the device according to the invention shown in Figures 1 and 2 includes a support 20 rectangular, of the bank card type, which includes in its thickness a cavity 21 provided for receiving the product 10. It is quite obvious that the support can have any other shape, it can for example be square, round, oval, etc ...
  • the support 20 has two flat and parallel faces 22 and 23 of length L and of width l.
  • the cavity 21 opens onto one of the faces 22 of the support 20 by a opening 210.
  • the support 20 has a small thickness e of the order of millimeter, for example between 0.5 and 2 mm. According to a particular example, the support has a thickness of 0.8 mm.
  • the cavity 21 has a circular section but it can also be square, rectangular, oval, or any other section form. The cavity is designed to receive a small amount of product, for example example 0.15 g.
  • a removable cover 40 is fixed on the face 22 of the support, so as to close the opening 210 of the cavity through which the user can access the product.
  • It is for example a glossy polyester type label which is glue on the upper side of the support.
  • We will preferably choose a label transparent so that the user can see the product in the conditioning.
  • the label is covered with a semi-permanent adhesive allowing it to be kept properly in contact with the face so as to close the opening while being easily removable from the face.
  • an adhesive allowing to stick at least one once the label on the support after a first opening.
  • the removable cover comprises a gripping zone 41 situated at the periphery of the label of so as to form a tongue that can be easily grasped by the user to remove the label from the support.
  • An applicator member 90 is formed in the extension of the support 20, the along its width l, to which it is connected by a junction zone 80.
  • the organ application extends for example over the entire width l of the support.
  • the organ 90 has a small thickness, identical to that of the support, and has two planar faces each formed respectively in the same plane as the two faces 22 and 23 of the support.
  • the enforcement body includes a relatively elongated gripping portion 91 of small width so as to be easily entered by the user and easily manipulated during of product application.
  • An applicator portion 92 is formed at a end 910 of the gripping portion which has, for example, a shape circular.
  • the applicator portion consists of a glued foam tablet on one face of the end 910 of the gripping portion. We could well heard plan to stick a second foam pad on the second face of the end 910.
  • the junction zone 80 is intended to be broken in order to separate from irreversibly the support application member. It is carried out by legs 81, for example three in number, having the same thickness e as the support and application body.
  • the legs 81 have a triangular shape, their base being connected to the support and their top to the application member.
  • the length of the legs, measured along the length L of the support is relatively small, for example about 2 mm, so as to achieve a relatively compact set. They are further apart from each other others along the grip portion so as to properly maintain the application member secured to the support.
  • the legs 81 have a width, measured at their base along the width l of the support, relatively small also, for example about 2 mm, so that they can easily break when the user folds them around an axis parallel to the width of the support.
  • the entire device is for example obtained by molding a material thermoplastic from a single piece, the foam pad being glued after formation of the whole.
  • the device can be produced by cutting a plate from a thermoplastic material.
  • the material thermoplastic can for example be a polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a polypropylene or polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
  • the device shown in Figure 3 differs from that just described in what the junction area 80 is this time formed by a portion 82 of which the thickness is less than the thickness e of the support.
  • Portion 82 a by example a thickness of about 0.5 mm.
  • This portion 82 extends so continues throughout the gripping portion 91 of the application member.
  • the applicator portion is this time formed by a tuft of hairs 93 glued to the end 910 of the gripping portion.
  • the user grasps the applicator member 90 and rotates it around an axis parallel to the width of the support so as to break the area of junction 80. It can then take product with the applicator portion 92 or 93, after having removed the cover 40. It then applies the product taken from the desired facial area.
  • the device shown in Figures 4 and 5 has a support identical to the one which has just been described except that the cavity 21 leads to each face 22 and 23 by two openings 210 and 211 respectively.
  • An adhesive film 50 is bonded to the face 23 so as to close the second opening 211 of the cavity 21.
  • This adhesive film has a greater adhesive power than the seal. removable 40 because it is intended not to be removed from the support. It thus constitutes the background of the packaging.
  • Opposite the adhesive face of the adhesive film 50 we may include a print, in particular a decorative pattern, or even a inscription relating to the product contained in the cavity.
  • the device further comprises this time a cover 30 also rectangular and which has two plane faces 31 and 32 parallel, a first face 31 being intended to come to rest on the face 22 of the support.
  • the cover 30 also has a small thickness, of the order of about 0.8 mm per example.
  • the face 31 can be covered with a mirror label 70.
  • the cover 30 is articulated to the support 20 by means of the adhesive film 50 which partially covers the face 32 of the cover on which it is glued so that it constitutes a hinge between the support 20 and the cover 30.
  • the applicator member 90 is formed in the extension of the support 20, but this time along its length L.
  • the gripping portion 91 is this time formed by a rod of circular section and the applicator portion has the shape of a sleeve 94.
  • This sleeve is threaded at the end 910 of the portion grip on which it is stuck.
  • the sleeve is for example made of a layer of flocked foam.
  • the junction area 80 is identical to that of the device of FIG. 3, namely an area of thickness less than the thickness of the support and of the application member.
  • the cover 30 can be made with the support and the applicator member from a single piece, for example by molding a thermoplastic material, the support and the cover being separated by a groove.
  • the first opening 210 is then removably closed at means of the removable cover 40 which is glued to the face 22 of the support 20 and we stick the mirror label 70 on the face 31 of the cover.
  • a semi-liquid product can also be poured or viscous in the cavity.
  • We close the second opening 211 with the film adhesive 50 by pressing it on the face 22 of the support so as to form the bottom conditioning.
  • the plate is folded along the groove so as to separate the support 20 and cover 30 which are immediately re-attached by the adhesive film 50.
  • the device shown in Figures 6 to 8 differs from that of Figure 4 in that that it has no cover and that the adhesive film 50 has a end portion 51 which is wound on itself so as to form a tubular housing 100.
  • This end portion has a width less than the width of the rest of the film. It must be wide enough to be able to correctly maintain the application member that it is intended to receive.
  • this portion is partially loosened and has only one edge 510 coated with adhesive which is glued to the back of the adhesive film so as to fix the housing 100.
  • the user To use the device, the user must break the junction zone 80 in order to detach the applicator member from the support and remove the cover 40 in order to be able to take the product by means of the applicator portion 94. It can then apply the product, for example on his face.
  • the applicator member can be housed in the tubular housing 100, as is represented it in figure 8.
  • the device illustrated in FIG. 9 differs from that illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 8 in that the end portion 51 of the rolled-up sheet forming the housing is replaced by a portion 53 which is not glued to the support and which forms with the edge 24 of the support, the housing 100.
  • This portion 53 can besorptionadhésivée.
  • the sheet 50 further extends beyond the portion 53 by an end portion 54 which is glued to the face 22 of the support.
  • the housing 100 does not increase the total thickness of the conditioning.
  • the device illustrated in FIGS. 10 and 11 comprises a support 20 substantially identical to that described in accordance with Figures 6 to 8, which is crossed by a cavity 21 opening on each face 22 and 23 of the support through, respectively, the openings 210 and 211.
  • a removable cover 40 closes a first reversible opening 210 and an adhesive film 50 closes the second opening 211.
  • the housing 100 is delimited by a portion 52 of the adhesive film 50 which is not stuck on the face 23 of the support and which is located between two portions glued on face 23.
  • the support does not include any member irreversibly detachable application by rupture of an area of junction.
  • An applicator member 90 is housed directly in the housing 100. But it is obvious that we could provide a joint application body of the support as in the first embodiment.
  • the device further comprises this time a cover 30 also rectangular and which has two plane faces 31 and 32 parallel, a first face 31 being intended to come to rest on the face 22 of the support.
