Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un système de fixation d'une pompe de distribution sur le col d'un flacon contenant un produit fluide, ainsi qu'un flacon de distribution d'un produit fluide comprenant une pompe fixée au moyen d'un tel système.The invention relates to a system for attaching a dispensing pump on the neck of a bottle containing a fluid, and a dispensing bottle of a fluid product comprising a pump fixed by means of such a system.
En particulier, le flacon permet le conditionnement et la distribution d'un liquide ou d'une crème, par exemple un parfum, pour une application cosmétique ou pharmaceutique.In particular, the bottle allows the packaging and dispensing of a liquid or a cream, for example a perfume, for a cosmetic or pharmaceutical application.
On connaît de tels flacons comprenant un corps définissant un réservoir de conditionnement du produit, un col surmontant ledit corps en définissant une ouverture supérieure pour ledit réservoir, et une pompe montée dans ladite ouverture supérieure en disposant les moyens d'alimentation de ladite pompe à l'intérieur dudit réservoir. Ainsi, la pompe permet de restituer le produit conditionné dans le réservoir.Such bottles are known comprising a body defining a product conditioning tank, a neck surmounting said body by defining an upper opening for said tank, and a pump mounted in said upper opening by disposing the supply means of said pump to the tank. interior of said tank. Thus, the pump makes it possible to return the packaged product to the tank.
Pour assurer le positionnement et la fixation de la pompe par rapport au corps, on peut utiliser un système comprenant un manchon présentant un collet portant des moyens de solidarisation de la pompe et une jupe inférieure pourvue de moyens de fixation dudit manchon sur ledit flacon.To ensure the positioning and fixing of the pump relative to the body, a system may be used comprising a sleeve having a collar carrying means for securing the pump and a lower skirt provided with fixing means of said sleeve on said bottle.
Le système de fixation comprend en outre une frette montée en coulissement autour de la jupe entre une position haute dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont libres de sorte à permettre le positionnement de ladite jupe autour du col et une position basse dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont contraints par ladite frette pour assurer la fixation étanche du manchon sur ledit col.The fastening system further comprises a hoop slidably mounted around the skirt between a high position in which the fixing means are free so as to allow the positioning of said skirt around the neck and a low position in which the fastening means are constrained by said hoop to ensure the sealing of the sleeve on said collar.
En particulier, le document
La frette, notamment réalisée en matériau rigide, forme ainsi outil de rabattement des griffes et permet d'assurer le maintien dans le temps des griffes en position rabattue, notamment relativement aux variations de température. En outre, elle peut procurer un effet esthétique en formant enjoliveur de masquage du col, de la zone de jonction entre le corps et le col (dite épaules du corps), ainsi qu'éventuellement de la partie inférieure de la pompe.The hoop, in particular made of rigid material, thus forms a tool for folding the claws and ensures the maintenance over time of claws in the folded position, especially with respect to temperature variations. In addition, it can provide an aesthetic effect by forming the masking cap of the neck, the junction zone between the body and the neck (called shoulders of the body), and possibly the lower part of the pump.
Le problème qui se pose avec l'utilisation de tels systèmes selon l'art antérieur est que la fixation de la pompe est inamovible. Or, pour des problèmes écologiques de recyclage en fin de vie du flacon, il est d'actualité de faciliter la séparation de la pompe constituée essentiellement de matières plastiques et métalliques, du corps réalisé souvent dans une catégorie de matière plastique différente ou bien en verre.The problem that arises with the use of such systems according to the prior art is that the fixing of the pump is irremovable. However, for ecological recycling problems at the end of life of the bottle, it is timely to facilitate the separation of the pump consisting essentially of plastics and metal, the body often made of a different category of plastic or glass .
Pour résoudre ce problème, on connaît l'utilisation de manchons qui sont vissables sur le col. Toutefois, les parfumeurs, cosméticiens ou pharmaciens ne souhaitent généralement pas que les manchons soient dévissables et revissables facilement par l'utilisateur, notamment pour des raisons de dégradation possible du produit distribué ou de changement d'affectation du flacon.To solve this problem, it is known to use sleeves that are screwable on the neck. However, perfumers, cosmeticians or pharmacists generally do not want the sleeves are unscrewable and easily re-screwed by the user, especially for reasons of possible degradation of the product dispensed or change of assignment of the bottle.
De plus, les manchons vissables laissent obligatoirement un jeu fonctionnel inesthétique entre le bas dudit manchon et les épaules du corps. Egalement, leur vissage sur les lignes de remplissage est lent et donc coûteux. Par ailleurs, les manchons vissables doivent être vissés sur les lignes de remplissage selon un couple bien précis devant parfaitement être respecté pour assurer leur étanchéité sur le col.In addition, the screw sleeves necessarily leave an unsightly functional game between the bottom of said sleeve and the shoulders of the body. Also, their screwing on the filling lines is slow and therefore expensive. In addition, the screw sleeves must be screwed on the filling lines in a very precise couple to be perfectly respected to ensure their tightness on the neck.
L'invention vise à perfectionner l'art antérieur en proposant notamment un système de fixation d'une pompe sur le col d'un flacon qui permet leur séparation quasi irréversible à fin de recyclage, et ce en présentant une esthétique avantageuse et une simplicité de fixation.The invention aims to improve the prior art by proposing in particular a system for fixing a pump on the neck of a bottle which allows their almost irreversible separation for recycling purposes, and this having an advantageous aesthetic and a simplicity of fixation.
A cet effet, et selon un premier aspect, l'invention propose un système de fixation d'une pompe de distribution sur le col d'un flacon contenant un produit fluide, ledit système comprenant un manchon présentant un collet intérieur portant des moyens de solidarisation de la pompe et une jupe inférieure pourvue de moyens de fixation dudit manchon sur ledit flacon, ledit système comprenant en outre une frette montée en coulissement autour de la jupe entre une position haute dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont libres de sorte à permettre le positionnement de ladite jupe autour du col et une position basse dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont contraints par ladite frette pour assurer la fixation étanche du manchon sur ledit col, ledit système comprenant en outre un collet extérieur monté autour du collet intérieur par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de déplacement dudit collet extérieur entre une position basse d'utilisation et une position haute de démontage, la frette en position basse étant solidarisée au collet extérieur pour actionner le déplacement dudit collet vers sa position haute en entrainant ladite frette relativement à la jupe sur une course suffisante pour libérer les moyens de fixation.For this purpose, and according to a first aspect, the invention proposes a system for fixing a dispensing pump on the neck of a bottle containing a fluid product, said system comprising a sleeve having an inner collar carrying fastening means. of the pump and a lower skirt provided with fixing means of said sleeve on said bottle, said system further comprising a hoop slidably mounted around the skirt between a high position in which the fastening means are free to allow the positioning said skirt around the neck and a low position in which the fastening means are constrained by said hoop to ensure the sealed attachment of the sleeve on said neck, said system further comprising an outer collar mounted around the inner collar via a device for moving said outer collar between a low position of use and a high disassembly position, the fret in the lower position being secured to the outer collar to actuate the movement of said collar to its upper position by causing said hoop relative to the skirt on a sufficient stroke to release the fastening means.

Dans la description, les termes de positionnement dans l'espace sont pris en référence à la position du système de fixation représenté sur les figures.In the description, the spatial positioning terms are taken with reference to the position of the fastening system shown in the figures.
En relation avec les figures, on décrit ci-dessous un flacon destiné à contenir un produit fluide en vue de sa distribution. Dans des exemples particuliers, le produit peut être un liquide ou une crème, par exemple un parfum, pour une application cosmétique ou pharmaceutique.In connection with the figures, there is described below a bottle for containing a fluid for distribution. In particular examples, the product may be a liquid or a cream, for example a perfume, for a cosmetic or pharmaceutical application.
Le flacon comprend un corps 1 qui peut être formé en matériau rigide, notamment en verre ou en matériau plastique, pour définir un réservoir de conditionnement du produit. Le corps 1 est surmonté par un col 2 formé d'une seule pièce avec ledit corps en définissant une ouverture supérieure pour le réservoir. Selon une réalisation, le col 2 est de type à carnette tel que normalisé par la norme FEA en Europe, sans que l'invention ne soit limitée à un tel type de col.The bottle comprises a body 1 which can be formed of rigid material, in particular glass or plastic material, to define a reservoir of packaging of the product. The body 1 is surmounted by a
Le flacon de distribution comprend également une pompe 3 montée dans l'ouverture supérieure en disposant les moyens d'alimentation de ladite pompe à l'intérieur du réservoir. La pompe représentée comprend un corps dont la périphérie est montée sans serrage dans l'ouverture.The dispensing bottle also comprises a
Le corps de la pompe 3 présente une partie inférieure qui est pourvue d'un orifice d'alimentation, les moyens d'alimentation comprenant un tube plongeur 4 présentant une partie supérieure fixée dans l'orifice et une partie inférieure disposée contre le fond du réservoir.The body of the
Par ailleurs, la pompe comprend un bouton poussoir 5 équipé d'un orifice de distribution 6. Selon une réalisation connue, le bouton 5 actionne en translation réversible un gicleur sur une course de distribution et un piston est également monté sur le gicleur entre un état d'obturation et un état d'alimentation des orifices dudit gicleur. Toutefois, l'invention n'est pas limitée à un mode de réalisation particulier de la pompe 3.Furthermore, the pump comprises a
Le flacon peut également être pourvu d'un capot de protection de la pompe entre deux utilisations. En variante, la pompe peut être verrouillable, notamment par rotation du bouton poussoir entre une position de distribution et une position dans laquelle l'appui sur le bouton poussoir est bloqué.The bottle can also be provided with a protective cover of the pump between two uses. Alternatively, the pump can be lockable, in particular by rotating the push button between a dispensing position and a position in which the pressing of the push button is blocked.
Pour assurer le positionnement et la fixation de la pompe 3 sur le col 2, le flacon comprend en outre un système de fixation comprenant un manchon 7 qui peut être réalisé de façon monobloc en matériau ductile, notamment en matière plastique de type polyoléfine.To ensure the positioning and fixing of the
En partie supérieure, le manchon 7 présente un collet intérieur 8 qui porte des moyens de solidarisation de la pompe 3. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, une armature d'association de la pompe 3 est formée dans le collet intérieur 8 afin de rendre ladite pompe solidaire du manchon 7. En variante non représentée, le manchon 7 peut être intégré au corps de la pompe 3, par exemple en formant extenseur pour ladite pompe, les moyens de solidarisation étant alors permanents.In the upper part, the
En particulier, l'armature d'association comprend un orifice 9 dans lequel la pompe 3 est montée avec le bouton poussoir 5 disposé au-dessus du manchon 7, ladite armature comprenant en outre une gorge d'encliquetage 10 d'un bourrelet 11 formé sur le corps de la pompe 3.In particular, the association armature comprises an
Le manchon 7 présente également une jupe inférieure 12 qui s'étend axialement d'une pièce sous le collet intérieur 8, ladite jupe étant pourvue de moyens de fixation dudit manchon sur le flacon. En particulier, la jupe 12 peut être déformable entre une configuration de montage dans laquelle ladite jupe est positionnable autour du col 2 et une configuration de serrage de ladite jupe autour dudit col pour assurer la fixation. Pour ce faire, la jupe 12 peut former une enveloppe intérieure de géométrie respectivement conique pour le positionnement et cylindrique pour la fixation.The
Dans le mode de réalisation représentée, la jupe 12 présente une couronne supérieure 13 sous laquelle s'étendent des griffes 14 formant moyens de fixation. Par ailleurs, la couronne 13 est reliée à l'extrémité inférieure du collet intérieur 8 par l'intermédiaire d'un épaulement rentrant 15.In the embodiment shown, the skirt 12 has an upper ring 13 in which there extend
Le système de fixation comprend également une frette 16 réalisée en une pièce, notamment en matériau rigide tel qu'un métal et par exemple en aluminium. La frette 16 est montée en coulissement autour de la jupe 12 entre une position haute dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont libres de sorte à permettre le positionnement de ladite jupe autour du col 2 et une position basse dans laquelle les moyens de fixation sont contraints par ladite frette pour assurer la fixation étanche du manchon 7 sur ledit col.The fastening system also comprises a
Ainsi, la fixation de la pompe 3 sur le flacon est réalisée en solidarisant ladite pompe au collet intérieur 8, les moyens de fixation de la jupe 12 étant contraints par la frette 16 en position basse pour assurer la fixation étanche du manchon 7 sur le col 2.Thus, the fixing of the
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le diamètre intérieur de la frette 16 est agencé pour permettre un glissement de ladite frette sur la couronne 13, les griffes 14 à l'état libre étant disposées en relief par rapport à ladite couronne (
En variante non représentée, les griffes 14 à l'état libre peuvent être disposées sensiblement dans le prolongement axial de la couronne 13, la frette 16 en position basse assurant alors le maintien radial desdites griffes pour assurer la fixation étanche du manchon 7 sur le col 2.In a variant not shown, the
Le système de fixation comprend en outre un collet extérieur 17 qui est monté autour du collet intérieur 8 par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de déplacement dudit collet extérieur entre une position basse d'utilisation et une position haute de démontage. En particulier, le collet extérieur 17 est monté au dessus de l'épaulement rentrant 15 en présentant une épaisseur sensiblement égale à la longueur dudit épaulement de sorte que l'extérieur dudit collet soit sensiblement dans le prolongement axial de l'extérieur de la couronne 13.The fastening system further comprises an
Par ailleurs, la frette 16 en position basse est solidarisée au collet extérieur 17 pour actionner le déplacement dudit collet vers sa position haute en entrainant ladite frette relativement à la jupe 12 sur une course suffisante pour libérer les moyens de fixation (
Ainsi, après fixation de la pompe 3 (
Le dispositif de déplacement peut être au moins partiellement actionné en rotation par la frette 16. Ainsi, le démontage est réalisé par un mouvement intuitif de dévissage, notamment dans le sens antihoraire, par l'intermédiaire de la frette 16. Cette réalisation combine donc les avantages d'une fixation au moyen d'un manchon déformable 7 avec la possibilité de dévisser ledit manchon, et ce sans les inconvénients de chacune de ces réalisations.The displacement device can be at least partially actuated in rotation by the
En particulier, le système de fixation permet de prévoir une frette 16 qui, en position basse, vient en appui sans jeu contre les épaules du corps 1 (
Selon la réalisation représentée, le démontage est réalisé par une cinématique de type baïonnette comprenant une rotation suivie d'une translation de l'ensemble collet extérieur 17 - frette 16 par rapport à la jupe 12. En variante, une rotation seule peut être prévue, le dispositif de déplacement étant alors agencé pour transformer un effort de rotation sur la frette 16 en un mouvement de translation de l'ensemble collet extérieur 17 - frette 16.According to the embodiment shown, the disassembly is carried out by a bayonet type kinematics comprising a rotation followed by a translation of the outer collar assembly 17 -
Pour éviter un démontage intempestif de l'ensemble système de fixation - pompe 3, le dispositif de déplacement peut comprendre des moyens de verrouillage du collet extérieur 17 en position basse, lesdits moyens étant désactivés par application d'un effort seuil.To avoid inadvertent disassembly of the assembly system -
En outre, le dispositif de déplacement peut comprendre une butée de maintien du collet extérieur 17 en position haute sur le collet intérieur 8. Ainsi, dans la position de démontage de la
Selon une réalisation, les collets 8, 17 sont coaxiaux, le collet extérieur 17 présentant une portée intérieure axiale 17a et le collet intérieur 8 présentant une portée extérieure axiale 8a entourée par ladite portée intérieure, le dispositif de déplacement étant prévu entre lesdites portées.According to one embodiment, the
En particulier, le dispositif de déplacement peut comprendre au moins une saillie 18 solidaire d'une des portées 17a, 8a, ladite saillie étant montée dans au moins une glissière 19 solidaire de l'autre portée 8a, 17a, le glissement de la saillie 18 dans la glissière 19 induisant le déplacement du collet extérieur 17 depuis sa position basse vers sa position haute.In particular, the displacement device may comprise at least one
Dans les modes de réalisation représentés, la portée intérieure 17a présente deux saillies 18 diamétralement opposées, une glissière 19 pour chacune desdites saillies étant formée sur la portée extérieure 8a. En relation avec les
- une partie périphérique 20 qui s'étend sur un secteur de la portée extérieure 8a, ladite partie périphérique n'étant pas traversante ; et
- une partie supérieure axiale 21 traversante dans la portée extérieure 8a, ladite partie comprenant une ouverture supérieure 22 et communicant en partie inférieure dans la partie périphérique 20.
- a
peripheral portion 20 which extends over a sector of theouter surface 8a, said peripheral portion not being through; and - an axial
upper part 21 passing through theouter surface 8a, said part comprising anupper opening 22 and communicating in the lower part in theperipheral part 20.
Ainsi, lorsque le collet extérieur 17 est en position basse, chaque saillie 18 est disposée dans l'extrémité borgne 23 de la partie périphérique 20. Ensuite, lors du démontage par actionnement en rotation de la frette 16, les saillies 18 glissent dans les parties périphériques 20 pour atteindre les parties supérieures axiales 21 et, par traction sur la frette 16, les saillies 18 glissent dans lesdites parties supérieures pour disposer le collet extérieur 17 en position haute. En particulier, la longueur axiale des parties supérieures 21 est suffisante pour libérer les moyens de fixation de la jupe 12.Thus, when the

Selon la
En relation avec les
En particulier, la saillie 40 est disposée de sorte que le rebord supérieur du collet intérieur 8 forme une portée de pré-positionnement du collet extérieur 17 en position haute. Par ailleurs, le bossage 40 présente une hauteur telle que la dimension axiale du logement 24 est légèrement inférieure à celle de la partie hélicoïdale 19b afin d'éviter un jeu de la saillie 18 dans le logement 24 tout en favorisant le glissement de ladite saillie dans ladite partie hélicoïdale.In particular, the
La glissière 19 représentée est également pourvue d'un bossage radial intermédiaire 41 qui permet, en cas de démontage accidentel, de former un point dur sur la course de rotation afin d'alerter l'utilisateur avant que les moyens de fixation ne soient libérés.The
En fin de course de démontage, la partie hélicoïdale 19b est pourvue d'un logement 42 dans lequel la saillie 18 est disposée. En particulier, le logement 42 est délimité latéralement par une butée 43 qui est agencée pour empêcher le retour de la saillie 18 dans la glissière 19 et donc le remontage de la pompe 3. En outre, le logement 42 présente un rebord inférieur 44 qui est agencé pour, même en cas d'appui axial sur le collet extérieur 17, empêcher la disposition de la frette 16 en position basse de fixation.At the end of the disassembly stroke, the helical portion 19b is provided with a
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, la frette 16 est montée en coulissement autour du collet extérieur 17 entre ses positions haute et basse, plus précisément autour de la portée intérieure 17a dudit collet. En particulier, un effort de serrage est prévu à l'interface entre la frette 16 et le collet extérieur 17.In the embodiment shown, the
Par ailleurs, le rebord supérieur du collet intérieur 8 présente un jonc radial 27 qui coopère avec un jonc radial 28 formé dans le rebord inférieur du collet extérieur 17 pour maintenir le collet extérieur 17 en position haute sur le collet intérieur 8 (

En relation avec les
Par ailleurs, pour entrainer en déplacement l'ensemble collet extérieur 17 - frette 16 relativement à la jupe 12, l'effort d'actionnement, notamment en rotation, du dispositif de déplacement est inférieur à celui de déplacement du manchon 7.Moreover, in order to drive the outer flange 17-
Pour ce faire, on peut prévoir que le serrage à l'interface entre la frette 16 et le collet extérieur 17 soit supérieur au serrage à l'interface entre ladite frette et la jupe 12. Par exemple, le diamètre extérieur de la couronne 13 peut être légèrement inférieur à celui du collet extérieur 17.To do this, it can be provided that the clamping at the interface between the
L'effort de déplacement du manchon 7 peut également être augmenté en prévoyant des zones de frottement. En particulier, dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le système de fixation comprend un joint d'étanchéité annulaire 29 qui est disposé dans le manchon 7 pour être d'une part en appui axial sur la paroi supérieure du col 2 et d'autre part en appui axial sur le prolongement de la paroi inférieure de l'épaulement rentrant 15, lesdits appuis conférant un effort résistif vis-à-vis de la rotation dudit manchon par rapport audit col.The displacement force of the
En outre, la paroi supérieure présente un jonc en relief 30 augmentant l'effort résistif, ce jonc pouvant être continu ou interrompu. En variante non représentée, le jonc peut être une gorge en creux. En variante, le corps de la pompe 3 peut être maintenu, éventuellement de manière étanche, dans l'ouverture du corps 1.In addition, the upper wall has a raised
Par ailleurs, le col 2 et/ou le manchon 7 peuvent être pourvus de moyens réciproques de retenue en rotation, l'effort de retenue conféré par lesdits moyens étant supérieur au couple nécessaire pour actionner en rotation le collet extérieur 17 depuis sa position basse vers sa position haute.Furthermore, the

La
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, la frette 16 en position basse et le collet extérieur 17 présentent des moyens de solidarisation réciproque. Ainsi, après disposition en position basse, la frette 16 est solidaire du collet extérieur 17 pour permettre leur déplacement conjoint, notamment en rotation.In the embodiment shown, the
En outre, les moyens de solidarisation sont interrompus sur l'interface entre la frette 16 en position basse et la jupe 12, de sorte à ne pas entrainer le manchon 7 en déplacement conjointement à l'ensemble collet extérieur 17 - frette 16.In addition, the securing means are interrupted on the interface between the
En relation avec la
Par ailleurs, en position basse, l'extrémité inférieure des stries 32 s'étend en regard du collet extérieur 17 de sorte que lesdites stries ne sont pas incrustées dans la jupe 12. En outre, en position haute, l'extrémité inférieure des stries 32 peut être incrustée dans le collet extérieur 17 pour fiabiliser le maintien de la frette 16 en position lors du montage de l'ensemble système de fixation - pompe 3 sur le col 2.Furthermore, in the low position, the lower end of the
En relation avec la
Ainsi, on fiabilise la solidarisation de l'ensemble collet extérieur 17 - frette 16 tant en rotation qu'en traction et ce, sans réaliser des stries 32 de relief important et/ou de profil tranchant dans la frette 16, notamment réalisées par emboutissage d'un matériau métallique.Thus, it makes reliable the joining of the outer collar assembly 17-
