Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for fixing a fluid dispenser pump.
  • the invention also relates to the bottle of associated fluid product.
  • the fluid product can be a cosmetic product, a pharmaceutical product or any other product.
  • Bottles of fluid product conventionally comprise a reservoir for the fluid product surmounted in its upper part by a rigid neck defining an opening into which the fluid product dispensing system is inserted.
  • the dispensing system comprises a pump which can be actuated by a user by means of a push button, which makes it possible to dispense a dose of the fluid product, in particular in the form of a spray.
  • the dispensing system further comprises fastening and sealing means which allow it to be held at the level of the neck and, if necessary, to isolate the reservoir from the external environment.
  • fastening means allowing permanent fastening of the dispensing system at the level of the neck, fastening means requiring a threshold force to unlock said fastening means and removable fastening means.
  • the use of one configuration rather than another depends on the problem addressed.
  • the fastening system is provided with a sleeve, a collar mounted around the sleeve and able to move partially according to a helical movement around said sleeve by the actuation of a hoop.
  • the sleeve is configured so that the unscrewing the fastening system requires the application of a threshold force by the user, thanks to the presence of lugs.
  • This fixing system is characterized in that said start and end of stroke positions are located so that the joint collar is able to pass from the high position of dismantling to the low position of use by translation.
  • the idea of the invention is to allow the reassembly of the pump by a simple gesture, namely, a translation while retaining the advantages of a fixing system comprising a sleeve, an articulation collar and a hoop.
  • the start and end of travel positions are advantageously located in axial extension of each other so that the joint collar is able to slide from the end of travel housing towards the start housing stroke by translation and that the reassembly of the pump is also possible by simple support of the user.
  • the system is again in the starting position of the race and the same disassembly/reassembly cycle can be started again.
  • the invention further relates to a dispensing bottle for a fluid product, comprising a reservoir for the fluid product, said reservoir being provided with a neck defining an opening for said reservoir, said bottle further comprising a dispensing pump and a system fixing as described above, said system making it possible to fix said pump on said neck.
  • said neck of the dispensing bottle is provided with an anti-rotation system of said fixing system.
  • the invention relates to a dispensing bottle for a fluid product comprising a reservoir 3 and a dispensing head 1 for the fluid product contained in the reservoir 3.
  • the fluid product can be a cosmetic product, a pharmaceutical product or any other product which can usefully be stored in a bottle.
  • the fluid can be directly in contact with the reservoir 3. That said, the fluid can be included in a flexible pocket located within said reservoir 3 so that it is not in contact with the reservoir 3 but with said flexible pocket .
  • Reservoir 3 can be either rigid or deformable. This being so, the reservoir 3 comprises, at an upper part, a neck 4 and an opening 5 formed in said neck 4.
  • the neck 4 is preferably rigid. It forms a groove 7 with the reservoir 3 and a peripheral edge 6 surmounting said groove 7.
  • the dispensing head 1 is equipped with a pump 2 for dispensing the fluid product contained in the reservoir 3.
  • the dispensed fluid is in particular liquid, viscous or pasty.
  • the dispensing pump 2 comprises a body extending along a central longitudinal axis X corresponding to a median axis of the bottle.
  • the body is of tubular shape, in particular of revolution.
  • the dispensing pump 2 is held stationary at the level of the neck 4 by means of a fastening system according to the invention. This being the case, the distribution pump 2 can be removed from this location by means of said fixing system, for example for the purpose of filling the reservoir 3. In other words, the distribution pump 2 is removable.
  • the fixing system comprises a fixing sleeve 10, an articulation collar 25 and a hoop 30.
  • the articulation collar 25 and the sleeve 10 are mounted so as to move relative to each other between a start of stroke position P I (illustrated in figure 1 ) and a limit position P F (shown in picture 3 ).
  • the kinematics of movement of said joint collar 25 relative to said sleeve 10 will be better described below.
  • the hoop 30 is itself configured to actuate a displacement of said articulation collar 25 relative to said sleeve 10. It also has a decorative function, its outer surface being visible to the user.
  • the sleeve 10 is of generally cylindrical shape and extends along the axis X.
  • the sleeve 10 is hollow. It delimits an empty interior volume essentially serving to accommodate the dispensing pump 2. However, the pump 2 extends axially beyond the ends of the sleeve 10.
  • the sleeve 10 is provided with means 11 for attaching the dispensing pump 2.
  • the hooking means 11 make it possible to keep the pump 2 immobile at the level of the neck 4, for example in an extended way thanks to a seal 9.
  • the sleeve 10 comprises a skirt 12 configured to come into engagement with the neck 4.
  • the skirt 12 comprises a flat portion 14 capable of coming around the peripheral edge 6, possibly by tightening.
  • the skirt 12 further comprises fastening means 15 to the neck 4 extending in the extension of the flat portion 14.
  • the fixing means 15 consist of flexible lugs able to perform movements independently of each other.
  • the flexible tabs 15 are regularly spaced from each other over the entire periphery of the skirt 12, that is to say that the flexible tabs are separated from each other by a constant distance.
  • the flexible tabs 15 are connected to the flat portion 14 by means of a hinge portion 15a. They alternately adopt a release position in which they are free, that is to say they are not in engagement with the neck 4 and an engagement position in which they are in engagement with said neck 4.
  • flexible tabs 15 have, on their internal faces, that is to say on their faces facing the neck 4, a shape substantially complementary to the shape of the groove 7. In the configuration illustrated in figure 1 , the flexible lugs 15 are in the released position, that is to say they are not engaged in the groove 7.
  • the sleeve 10 further comprises a guide collar 16 whose main function is to guide the joint collar 25 in its movements.
  • the articulation collar 25 is more precisely mounted mobile around the guide collar 16. In other words, it is capable of moving relative to said guide collar 16.
  • Said guide collar 16 comprises means for guiding said collar hinge 25, which will be described in more detail below.
  • the articulation collar 25, for its part, comprises means for moving along said guide means of said guide collar 16.
  • the guide collar 16 and the articulation collar 25 therefore form a movable mechanical assembly.
  • the guide collar 16 is located in the longitudinal extension of the skirt 12.
  • the hoop 30 is generally cylindrical in shape. As mentioned above, it is configured to actuate the movement of said joint collar 25. In this respect, it comprises an inner wall 31 on which ribs 32 are angularly distributed. The ribs are more precisely located on an upper portion of the hoop 30, along which the joint collar 25 is able to move. The ribs 32 make it possible to secure the hoop 30 and the articulation collar 25. In this case, in the embodiment illustrated in figures 1 to 3 , it can be seen that the ribs 32 (visible on the figure 1 ) are embedded in an outer wall 29 of the articulation collar 25, which allows the tightening and therefore the securing of the hoop 30 around the articulation collar 25. This thus makes it possible to make the drive of the articulation collar 25 more reliable. by fret 30.
  • hoop 30 is configured to perform a translational movement. This translation movement of the hoop 30 is made possible by the configuration of the hinge collar 25 relative to the skirt 12.
  • the outer wall 29 of the hinge collar 25 is here substantially aligned with the flat portion 14 of the skirt 12 so that hoop 30 is always held in abutment on outer wall 29 and on flat portion 14.
  • hoop 30 is thus capable of moving longitudinally, in particular between a proximal position and a distal position relative to the sleeve 10 by driving said articulation collar 25.
  • hoop 30 is adapted to actuate the movement of joint collar 25 between a high position P H for dismantling and a low position P B for use.
  • the hoop 30 must move towards its distal position.
  • the hoop 30 must move towards its proximal position. It should be noted that in the configuration illustrated in the figure 1 , the joint collar 25 is neither in the high position P H for dismantling nor in the low position P B for use but in a position before initial assembly.
  • the joint collar 25 is in the low position P B of use.
  • the fixing system is held rigidly around the collar 4 and the bottle is ready to be used.
  • the hoop 30 being located in the proximal position and therefore completely lowered, its inner wall 31 exerts a radial pressure on the fixing means 15 which are in the engagement position.
  • the fixing means 15 are engaged with the neck 4.
  • the outer faces of the flexible tabs 15 are in vertical alignment with the flat portion 14, while their inner faces are completely engaged in the groove 7 of the collar.
  • the groove 7 includes a recess 8.
  • the recess 8 forms an anti-rotation system of the fixing system in which one or more lugs 15 can be housed.
  • the joint collar 25 is in the high dismantling position P H.
  • the fastening system is no longer in engagement with the collar 4.
  • the user may possibly fill the reservoir 3 again if the fluid product used lends itself to such manipulation.
  • the hoop 30 being located in the distal position, and therefore fully raised, the inner wall 31 no longer exerts pressure on the fixing means 15 which releases said fixing means 15.
  • the flexible tabs 15 are in the release position. In other words, the flexible tabs 15 are free.
  • the figure 1 illustrates the bottle before initial fixing of the dispensing head 1 on the reservoir. Such an operation takes place, for example, at the manufacturer in charge of the initial filling of the bottle.
  • the sleeve 10 is mounted on the neck 4, the flexible tabs 15 being free.
  • the joint collar 25 is in the low position P B of use.
  • the hoop 30 is in a retracted position corresponding to the high position P H for dismantling the picture 3 but without the hoop already being tightly mounted on said hinge collar 25, thus allowing the flexible tabs 15 to be free and the dispensing head 1 to be mounted on the reservoir.
  • the hoop 30 is lowered by force according to a translational movement and the dispensing head passes into the configuration of the picture 2 .
  • This translation movement is facilitated by the ribs 32 dedicated to guiding the joint collar 25.
  • the joint collar 25 when the joint collar 25 is located in the high dismantling position P H ( fig. 3 ), it is in abutment with the sleeve 10 at an end position P F .
  • the joint collar 25 when the joint collar 25 is located in the low position P B of use ( fig. 2 ), it is in abutment with said sleeve 10 at the start of stroke position P I .
  • the devices of the prior art are configured so that the user is obliged to unscrew the joint collar 25 from the sleeve 10. The subsequent reassembly, if permitted, is then carried out by screwing.
  • joint collar 25 and the sleeve 10 can be in abutment, without necessarily that one of said parts is embedded in the other part. In other words, there may be play between joint collar 25 and sleeve 10.
  • the start and end positions P I , P F are located so that the articulation collar 25 is able to pass from the high position P H of dismantling (as illustrated in figure 2 ) to the low operating position P B (as illustrated in picture 3 ) by translation.

  • the first means for guiding in translation are located on the guide collar 16. They extend along the start of stroke position P I and the end of stroke position P F . It is preferable that these first means for guiding in translation be at least two in number. This makes it possible to make the movement of the articulation collar 25 relative to the sleeve 10 more reliable.
  • these first means for guiding in translation comprise a start-of-stroke housing 19 located at the start-of-stroke position P I and an end-of-stroke housing 20 located at the end-of-stroke position P F .
  • the start and end of travel housings 19, 20 form, in combination, a groove or even a notch having a grip of substantially rectangular shape on the guide collar 16.
  • the groove extends longitudinally over the entire height of the guide collar 16, that is to say between an upper free edge of the guide collar 16 and the skirt 12.
  • the height of the guide collar 16 therefore corresponds substantially to the longitudinal distance that the articulation collar 25 can cover during its travel from the high position P H for disassembly to the low position P B for use.
  • the skirt 12 forms an outer bearing surface 13 on which rests a lower edge of the joint collar 25 when it is in the low position P B of use.

  • the limit switch housing 20 comprises a flat end 20a forming a discontinuity at the level of the upper free edge of the guide collar 16. This in particular makes it possible to predispose the articulation collar 25 with respect to the guide collar 16 and the initial mounting of the articulation collar on the sleeve 10.
  • Each of said first means for guiding in translation further comprises a first locking means 18.
  • the start and end of travel housings 19, 20 are connected via said first locking means 18.

  • Said retaining portion 18a forms a bearing surface for the articulation collar 25 when the latter is in the high dismantling position P H.
  • the retaining portion 18a is inclined with respect to a bottom of the groove. More precisely, it makes an obtuse angle with the limit switch housing 20. Being thus configured, the retaining portion 18a allows both the maintenance of the articulation collar 25 and its sliding along the groove, and therefore from the end-of-travel position P F towards the start-of-travel position P I .
