Description

L'invention concerne un systĆØme de conditionnement d'un produit fluide comprenant un flacon de conditionnement dudit produit et un habillage extĆ©rieur dans lequel ledit flacon est destinĆ© Ć  ĆŖtre logĆ©, ainsi qu'un ensemble de distribution d'un produit fluide qui comprend un tel systĆØme et un dispositif de distribution dudit produit qui est destinĆ© Ć  ĆŖtre montĆ© sur le col dudit flacon.The invention relates to a system for packaging a fluid product comprising a bottle for packaging said product and an outer covering in which said bottle is to be housed, as well as a dispensing assembly for a fluid product which comprises such a product. system and a dispensing device of said product which is intended to be mounted on the neck of said bottle.

Dans une application particuliĆØre, le produit fluide est Ć  usage cosmĆ©tique ou pour des traitements pharmaceutiques, notamment sous la forme de liquide, de gel ou de crĆØme.In a particular application, the fluid product is for cosmetic use or for pharmaceutical treatments, especially in the form of liquid, gel or cream.

On connaĆ®t des systĆØmes de conditionnement comprenant un flacon formant un rĆ©servoir dans lequel un produit fluide est conditionnĆ©, ledit flacon comprenant un col qui surmonte ledit rĆ©servoir et sur lequel un dispositif de distribution, par exemple une pompe, est montĆ© pour ĆŖtre alimentĆ© en produit fluide Ć  distribuer.Packaging systems are known comprising a bottle forming a reservoir in which a fluid product is packaged, said bottle comprising a neck which overcomes said reservoir and on which a dispensing device, for example a pump, is mounted to be fed with fluid product. to distribute.

Pour des raisons esthĆ©tiques, il est connu de prĆ©voir des systĆØmes de conditionnement qui comprennent en outre un habillage extĆ©rieur dans lequel le flacon de conditionnement du produit fluide est destinĆ© Ć  ĆŖtre logĆ©, notamment afin d'y ĆŖtre masquĆ©, ledit habillage pouvant notamment ĆŖtre rĆ©alisĆ© dans un matĆ©riau plus coĆ»teux que ledit flacon, et/ou Ć©ventuellement pourvu de dĆ©coration.For aesthetic reasons, it is known to provide packaging systems which also comprise an outer covering in which the fluid packaging bottle is intended to be housed, especially in order to be masked, said dressing can in particular be realized in a material more expensive than said bottle, and / or possibly provided with decoration.

Ainsi, aprĆØs solidarisation du flacon dans l'habillage extĆ©rieur et conditionnement du produit fluide dans ledit flacon, le dispositif de distribution peut ĆŖtre montĆ© sur le col dudit flacon, qui est gĆ©nĆ©ralement saillant d'une ouverture supĆ©rieure dudit habillage, notamment par claquage axial.Thus, after securing the bottle in the outer covering and conditioning the fluid in said bottle, the dispensing device can be mounted on the neck of said bottle, which is generally protruding from an upper opening of said casing, in particular by axial breakdown.
