[0037] As can be seen in the various figures, the invention relates to a support 1 for a cosmetic article 2.

[0038] In the exemplary embodiment of Figures 1 to 12, said article consists of a cosmetic powder cup. Said cup comprises a bowl 4, in particular a metal one, filled with said powder 6. Said cup is for example of cylindrical shape with a height much smaller than the dimensions of its base so that it has a substantially flat appearance. Here, said base is round. It could have any other shape, in particular a square shape with rounded corners.

[0039] Said support 1 comprises a frame 8 defining a housing 10 for said article 2. Walls of said housing 10 preferably have a shape substantially complementary to the shape of said article 2, apart from the assembly clearances.

[0040] According to the invention, said frame 8 has a front face wall 12 provided with a front face opening 14 allowing access to and / or making visible said article 2. In the case of a bucket, said front face opening 14 allows the user to access the cosmetic powder to remove a portion of it with a brush or a brush. Said frame also has a lateral opening 16.

[0041] As more particularly illustrated in Figures 3 and 5, said frame 8 is configured for insertion of said article 2 into said housing 10 through said lateral opening 16, this by a translational movement to a position of placement, illustrated in Figures 4 and 6. Said translation is carried out by guiding said article 2 using said front face wall 12, in particular using an inner face 18 of said front face wall 12, that is to say a face facing said housing 10. In other words, said translation is carried out in a plane substantially parallel to said wall 12 and / or to said front face opening 14. Such a gesture makes it possible, in particular thanks to the guidance offered by the front face wall 12, this up to the position of placement of the article 2 in the housing 10, to have a qualitative rendering of the positioning of the different parts.

[0042] To promote such guidance, in the illustrated example, said front face wall 12 is configured to continuously cover a peripheral portion of a front face of said article 2 in the placement position. In the illustrated example where the article 2, in this case the bucket, is cylindrical in shape with a circular section, the front face wall 12 is annular in shape with a small radius slightly smaller than the radius of the bucket.

[0043] As is more clearly seen from Figures 2 and 6, said front face wall comprises stops 20, 22 intended to hold said article 2 in the position of placement. Said stops 20, 22 are preferably located at the level of said inner face 18 of front face wall 12.

[0044] In the example illustrated, a first of said stops 20 is formed by a hollow fillet made at the level of the lower face 18 of said front face wall 12, in particular along a portion of an internal periphery of said front face wall 12. Said fillet forms a notch making it possible to mark the positioning of the article 2 and a stop for the removal of said article 2 from the housing 10.

[0045] A second 22 of said stops comprises a partition extending transversely, in particular orthogonally, from said inner face 18 of the front face wall 12. It contributes to defining said housing 10. Said partition is here in the shape of an arc of a circle to match the shape of the bucket. When inserting the article 2 into said housing 20, it forms an end-of-travel stop marking the positioning of said article 2 at the end of its translational movement.

[0046] Said frame 8 further has a side wall 24, defining said lateral opening 16, in particular by an interruption of said lateral wall 24. In the example illustrated, said lateral wall 24 and said partition 22 are concentric, the lateral wall 24 having a larger radius than the partition 22. Said opening 16 is located in the same angular portion as that where the first stop 20 is located. The partition 22 is here interrupted in the radial extension of said lateral opening 16 and over a larger angular span, so as not to obstruct the insertion of the article 2 into the housing 10.

[0047] Said frame 8 further has a bottom wall 26. Said bottom wall 26 is opposite said front face wall 12 so that said article 2 is located between said bottom wall 26 and said front face opening 12, once in the position of installation.

[0048] In other words, said housing 10 is formed in a chamber or cavity defined by said front face wall 12, said side wall 24 and said bottom wall 26, said housing 10 here being delimited by said front face wall 12 and said bottom wall 26 as well as by the partition 22.

[0049] Preferably, said side wall 24 connects the bottom wall 26 and the front face wall 12, said walls being made of one material. Alternatively, they may be assembled, for example by snap-fastening and / or screwing.

[0050] Said bottom wall 26 is preferably provided with elastic means 28 for holding said article in the housing 10 by pressing against the front face wall 12 of the housing 10. By their elastic nature, they deform to allow the article 2 to pass during its insertion, while contributing to its guidance, as illustrated in Figures 3 and 5. Once said article 2 is in its position of installation, they retain it in the housing 10, as illustrated in Figures 4 and 6, in particular by pressing on a lower face 30 of said article 2.

[0051] Preferably, said housing 10 is intended to accommodate said article 2 in a removable manner. Thus, after placing said article in said support 1, it is possible to extract it simply by an opposite movement. This promotes recycling of the support 1, for example with the rest of the receptacle that it is to equip, independently of the article 2. This also makes it possible to change the bucket if it is worn or includes a powder that no longer corresponds to the user's needs.

[0052] In this sense, said bottom wall 26 of the frame 8 is provided with one or more openings 32, called rear face openings, allowing a user to access said article 2 with a finger or a tool to trigger its extraction from said housing 10. In a complementary or alternative manner, a notch 34 is made in the partition 22.

[0053] In the illustrated embodiment, said elastic holding means comprise arms 36 formed between said rear face openings 32. Said arms 36 are connected at one of their ends to a central portion 38 of the bottom wall 26. Said central portion 38 is configured to bear against the lower face 30 of said article 2, under the action of said arms. Said arms 36 are advantageously radial. They extend between said side wall 24 and / or partition 22, on the one hand, and said central portion 38, on the other hand. Here there are four of them, separated by 90°, two starting from the partition 22 and two others from the side wall 24.

[0054] Said central part 38 here has the shape of a disc. Alternatively, it could be annular in shape. Alternatively, it could be absent, a distal end of said arms 36 then being free.

[0055] As will be understood, after assembly of the support 1 and the article 2, these form a whole.

[0056] As illustrated in Figures 7 to 12, 17 and 20, said assembly can be installed in a receiving receptacle.

[0057] According to the invention, said support 1 is configured to be positioned removably in said receiving receptacle 40. It thus makes it possible to install and extract said assembly from the receptacle 40. In this way, said receptacle 40 can be recycled according to an appropriate common channel, without said article 2. In the embodiments, corresponding to those illustrated, where the article 2 can also be separated from the support 1, said support 1 can also be recycled according to the same channel as that of the receiving receptacle, said support and said receptacle advantageously being made of a plastic material of the same nature.

[0058] In the exemplary embodiment of Figures 1 to 12, said support 1 is configured for positioning in the receiving receptacle 40 by means of said frame 8.

[0059] Said receptacle 40 comprises, for example, a base or stand 42 and a cover 44. Said receptacle 40 is configured to removably receive at least one of said assemblies on said base 42 and / or said cover 44. Here the assembly comprising the bucket is intended to be received in the base 42.

[0060] Still in the illustrated example, said support 1 is configured so that said bottom wall 26 of the frame 8 is located opposite a bottom wall 46 of a compartment 48 of the receptacle 40.

[0061] To allow said positioning in the receiving receptacle 40, more precisely here in said compartment 48, said support 1, more precisely here the frame 8, comprises snap-fastening means. In the example illustrated, said means snap-fitting devices are configured to allow said positioning by a pivoting movement, as best seen in Figures 8 to 10.

[0062] Said snap-fastening means comprise, for this purpose, in particular, engagement means 50 and attachment means 52. Said engagement means 50 and / or said attachment means 52 are located on the side wall 24 of the frame 8. Here, they are diametrically opposed. Said engagement means comprise, for example, a rib 54, intended to be inserted into a groove 56 located on a side wall 58 of the base 42. Said attachment means comprise elastic tabs 60 ratcheting into lugs 62 formed on said side wall 58 of the base 42.

[0063] It may be noted that said engagement means 50, said lateral opening 16 and said attachment means 50 are located angularly in this order along said lateral wall 50, for example substantially at 90° to each other.

[0064] To place said assembly in said compartment 48, said frame 8 is first brought closer to the base 42 so that the rib 54 is engaged in the groove 56. The bottom wall 26 of the frame 8 is then inclined relative to the bottom wall 46 of said compartment 48, as illustrated in FIGS. 8 and 9. An axial force is then applied to the frame 8 at a portion of the front face wall 12, which generates a pivoting movement about an axis defined by said rib 54 and said groove 56. This causes the elastic pastes 60 to snap into the lugs 62. Said assembly is then in the position illustrated in [Fig. 10].

[0065] As illustrated in Figures 7 to 10, said receptacle 40 advantageously comprises pins 64 configured to bear on the lower face 30 of the article 2. Said pins 64 are dimensioned so as to contribute to the support of the article 2 against the front face wall 12. Said receptacle further comprises alternatively or cumulatively projections 66, in particular coming from said bottom wall 46 of the compartment 48. Said projections 66 are configured to contribute to holding the article 2 in place by forming a lateral stop, in particular at the level of said lateral opening 16.

[0066] Said support 1 is configured to be extracted from said receiving receptacle 2 by a force bearing, for example, on said bottom wall 26 of the frame 8.

[0067] According to the example illustrated in [Fig. 11], the cover 44 is configured to exert a force at one or more reinforced studs 68. Said studs 68 are located between said elastic pastes 60. They participate in the definition of the side wall 24 and the bottom wall 26 of the frame 8. The cover 44 is configured to exert a force according to a lever arm on said studs 68, by imparting to the cover an additional rotation around an articulation axis 70 of the cover 44 relative to the base 42.

[0068] According to a variant illustrated in [Fig. 12], the force is exerted by means of a finger of the user on the central part 38 of the bottom wall 26, through a light located in the bottom wall 46 of the compartment 48.

[0069] As illustrated in [Fig. 13], as a variant, said frame 8 comprises several housings 10, each for accommodating a cosmetic article 2. Said housings 10 are adjacent to each other. Each housing 10 has its own front face opening 14, surrounded at least partially by a front face wall portion 12, and its own lateral opening 16. The lateral openings 16 of the neighboring housings 10 are separated by a partition 72. There are also, among other things, the arms 36 and the central parts 38 with the rear face openings. The cups here are square in shape with rounded corners and the housings 10 have a suitable shape. They may also be of another shape, in particular a circular shape, as in the previous embodiment.

[0070] In a variant not illustrated, the cosmetic article comprises several cups, for example following one another in a single direction in the form of a bar. Said frame 8 then comprises a single housing 10 and a single lateral opening for inserting the article 2. The frame 8 comprises several front face openings 14, each at least partially surrounded by a part of the front face wall 12 and / or several rear face openings.

[0071] According to another exemplary embodiment illustrated in the following figures, said cosmetic article 2 comprises a mirror. In this case, the front face opening 14 allows the user to make said cosmetic article visible. The user can thus see himself and apply makeup.

[0072] Said support 1 further comprises a cover or trim 76, intended to cover said bottom wall 26 of the frame 8. Said cover 76 has a substantially flat shape.

[0073] Said frame 8 remains similar to that mentioned above except for what concerns the relationship with the cover 76 and the placement in the reception receptacle 2.

[0074] Said cover 76 is, for example, snapped onto said frame 8, in particular at the level of the side wall 24 of said frame 8, this using a rim 78 cooperating with a rib 80 formed in said side wall 24 of said frame 8.

[0075] According to the variant illustrated in figures 14 to 17, said rim 78 is interrupted angularly to allow insertion of the article 2 into the frame 8 after positioning of the cover 76.

[0076] Said cover 76 is advantageously articulated in rotation on said frame 8 around an axis orthogonal to said bottom wall 26 and passing through a center of said bottom wall 26. Such a rotation makes it possible to conceal the lateral opening 16 after inserting the cosmetic article 2 into the housing 10, in particular by turning said cover 76 by 180°.

[0077] Said rotation is achieved, for example, by articulation on a crown 82 produced on an internal face 84 of the cover in its central part, said crown 82 cooperating with flexible segments 84 in an arc of a circle of the central part 38 of the bottom wall 26 of the frame 8. Said crown 82 is further advantageously configured to press on said article 2 so as to promote its maintenance in said position of installation.

[0078] As in the previous embodiments, the cosmetic article 2 can be extracted in a movement opposite to that of its insertion movement into the housing 10.

[0079] Furthermore, said support 1 is configured for positioning in the reception receptacle 40 via said cover 76.

[0080] In the example illustrated, the assembly formed by said support 1 and said cosmetic article 2, in this case said mirror, is intended to be housed, reversibly, in said cover 44, illustrated in more detail in [Fig. 16].

[0081] Said cover 44 comprises, for example, a hinge tab 86 on the base 42. This could be the tab used to extract the other frame 8, in particular in the case where, as here, the base 42 accommodates a frame 8 provided with a cup and the cover 44 accommodates a frame 8 provided with said mirror. Said cover 44 further comprises an annular wall 88 originating from a bottom wall 90 of said cover 44.

[0082] Said support 1 is configured so that said cover 76 is located opposite said bottom wall 90 of the cover 44.

[0083] Said cover 76 comprises snap-fastening means 92 to allow the positioning of the support 1 in the receptacle 2. Said snap-fastening means 92 are located on an external face 94 of the cover 76. This is a protuberance 96 substantially in the shape of a mushroom, intended to cooperate with the annular wall 88 of the cover 44 according to a pivoting movement more particularly illustrated in [Fig. 17]. Said pivoting movement allows both, when it is accompanied by pressure, the positioning of the support 1 in the cover 44 and, when it is accompanied by a lifting movement, an extraction of said support 1 from said cover 44. Said pivoting movement is obtained, for example, by the finger of a user pressing on the front face wall 12 of the frame 8.

[0084] According to another variant illustrated in Figures 18 to 20, said rim 78 is continuous along a periphery of a bottom wall 98 of the cover 76.

[0085] As in the previous embodiments, the cosmetic article 2 can be extracted in a movement opposite to that of its insertion movement into the housing 10.

[0086] In this variant, said support 1 is also configured so that said cover 76 is located opposite said bottom wall 90 of the cover 44.

[0087] Said snap-fastening means 92 are configured to allow said positioning of the support 1 in the receptacle 2 by a vertical movement, that is to say, orthogonal to a bottom wall of the cover. They are located at the level of the rim 78 of the cover 76. They comprise, for example, flexible tabs 100 located here substantially at 120° from each other. Said flexible tabs 100 are intended to cooperate with shapes 102 provided opposite each other in a side wall of the cover 44 for snap-fastening.

[0088] Said support 1 is configured to be extracted from said receiving receptacle 2 by an extraction force at a slot 103 located between the cover 76 and the receptacle 2.

[0089] Said slot 103 is provided, for example, at a cut edge 104 of the support 1, in particular at a foot 106 formed along the rim 78 of the cover 76, along said cut edge 104. Such a slot 103 allows the insertion of an instrument to extract the support 1 from the receiving receptacle 2, in this case the cover 44, by an upward movement allowing unclipping.

[0090] In a variant not illustrated, said foot 106 is provided with a hollow shape large enough for the user to slide a finger into it. When said support 1 is in place in the receptacle 2, said cover 76 is configured so that said hollow shape is accessible to the user from the same side as said front face opening 14. The user can then extract said support 1 using his finger by an upward movement allowing unclipping.

[0091] According to an embodiment illustrated in [Fig.21], the cover 44 comprises a side wall 200 and a bottom wall 202, removable from each other. It can be seen that said bottom wall 202 defines the cover 76 of said support 1. This makes it possible to personalize the receptacle with suitable decorations or differentiated markings by changing only this assembly.

[0092] In this embodiment, said support 1 remains removable relative to the receptacle by means of said cover 76. For this, said cover 76 and said side wall 200 of the cover 44 here have first shapes 204 and counter-shapes 206 intended to snap into each other, in correspondence, in particular in a direction orthogonal to said cover 76.

[0093] Said frame 10 is, for example, snapped onto said cover 76, in particular by means of second shapes 208 and counter-shapes located in correspondence on the side wall 26 of the frame 10 and said cover 76.

[0094] Said second counter-forms, not visible, are located on an internal face of said rim 78 of the cover 76 and said first forms 204 are located on an external face of the rim 78 to cooperate with the first counter-forms 206, located on an internal face of the side wall 200 of the cover 44. Said second shapes 208 are located on an external face of the side wall 26.

[0095] According to another embodiment, not illustrated, said support does not include a cover and is configured to be fixed in the receptacle by means of the frame of said support, as in the first embodiment illustrated in Figures 1 to 12, but according to a vertical snap-fitting movement, that is to say similar to the movement of the support relative to the cover encountered in Figures 18 to 20. Shapes and counter-shapes intended to snap into each other are provided for this purpose, in correspondence, at the level of the side wall of the insert and the side wall of the cover. The front face wall of the insert is provided with a notch allowing a user to slide a finger or a tool between the side wall of the cover and the front face wall of the frame to remove the support from said receptacle. For the rest, the insert of this embodiment has the characteristics of that of the embodiment of Figures 1 to 12.

[0096] It should be noted that these embodiments are applicable where appropriate both to a support receiving a bucket and a mirror, said support being intended to be installed both in a base and in a cover of the receptacle.
