Description

Title of the invention: Cosmetic product packaging device and associated manufacturing method

[0001] The present invention relates to a cosmetic product packaging device comprising:

[0002] - a base delimiting an interior volume;

[0003] - a hood movable relative to the base between an open position for access to the interior volume and a closed position for closing the interior volume;

[0004] at least one first element among the base and the cover being made of glass;

[0005] - a connecting mechanism between the base and the cover comprising at least one first connecting piece assembled by gluing to the first element among the base and the cover.

[0006] The cosmetic product is, for example, a hair product, a hygiene product, a facial and / or body care product, a makeup product, or a sun protection product.

[0007] More generally, a cosmetic product is a product as defined in Regulation EC No 1223 / 2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, dated 30 November 2009, relating to cosmetic products.

[0008] Such a packaging device is, for example, a case suitable for being received in a handbag.

[0009] FR3096558 describes a packaging device of the aforementioned type, comprising a base and a removable cover relative to the base.

[0010] For aesthetic and environmental reasons, the cover is sometimes made of glass, in order to reduce the mass of plastic present in the case. In this case, taking into account the maximum tolerances that can be achieved on glass, it is necessary to add a ring to the glass part which is used to screw the cover onto the base. The ring is fixed to the cover by gluing.

[0011] Such a device is not entirely satisfactory. When the packaging device is in the open position, the cover is detached from the base, which may lead the user to misplace it. In addition, when the cover is detached from the base, the glass part is liable to break in the event of impact or falling.

[0012] Other packaging of cosmetic products is described in WO 2018 / 115685, KR20-0451480, CN201734103, GB2161789 and US4526273.

[0013] The proposal of eco-responsible, environmentally friendly solutions whose design and development take into account environmental issues is becoming a major concern to help meet global challenges.

[0014] It is therefore essential to design more sustainable products, thus reducing the quantity of materials used, replacing them with more environmentally friendly materials and using recyclable materials in order to reduce the carbon footprint of the product.

[0015] In this context, it is important to develop packaging that generates less waste, in particular optimized for the quantity of products transported, in particular by redesigning and / or resizing them in order to reduce the volume and weight of the quantity of packaging.

[0016] The objective is to offer reusable eco-responsible containers, particularly those that can be refilled at home or in stores, in order to reduce the carbon footprint of packaging.

[0017] In this context, it becomes important to replace certain materials with alternatives that have a better environmental footprint, particularly by reducing the use of raw materials from petrochemicals.

[0018] The objective is to offer eco-responsible materials, particularly those derived from green chemistry, in order to limit the environmental impact of packaging from its manufacture to its end of life, in particular thanks to materials with a good biodegradability profile and / or derived from renewable sources.

[0019] In this context, it is important to offer recyclable packaging containing in particular separable elements and / or made up of a minimum of materials and / or free from materials that are difficult to recycle in order to facilitate their end of life.

[0020] Thus, it is necessary to develop packaging made from environmentally friendly recyclable materials to enable the re-use of packaging at the end of its life and avoid pollution of recycling channels.

[0021] An aim of the invention is therefore to obtain a device for packaging a cosmetic product which is more easily recyclable and whose plastic content is reduced, while being simple to use and robust.

[0022] To this end, the invention relates to a packaging device of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the connecting mechanism permanently connects the base to the cover, both in the closed position and in the open position.

[0023] In the device according to the invention, the cover and / or the base is made of glass, which is very beneficial for recyclability and limits the quantity of plastic used. The use of a first connecting piece, preferably made of plastic, attached by gluing to the cover or the base makes it possible to overcome the difficulties of respecting precise tolerances when forming the glass and therefore makes the positioning and operation of the connecting mechanism more reliable. In addition, since this connecting mechanism permanently connects the base to the cover, the risks of loss and breakage of the cover and / or the base, even when made of glass, are limited, which reinforces the robustness of the packaging device.

[0024] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - the first connecting piece comprises a portion projecting relative to the first element among the base and the cover, intended to engage in a receiving portion movable together with a second element among the base and the cover, or wherein the first connecting piece comprises a receiving portion intended to receive a portion projecting relative to the second element among the base and the cover, movable together with the second element among the base and the cover.

[0025] The connecting piece glued to the glass part and provided with a protruding part and / or a receiving part provides a simple and robust mounting for the permanent connecting mechanism. The protruding part and / or the receiving part provides a reliable connection, in particular in rotation via a joint or a hinge, or in translation.

[0026] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - the projecting part is a lug for receiving an axle, the receiving part being a yoke for holding the lug, or the projecting part is a rotation pivot, the receiving part defining a housing for guiding the pivot in rotation, or the projecting part is a hinge having two regions connected to each other by a deformable thinned region, the receiving part defining a housing for receiving one of the regions or the projecting part is a rail, the receiving part defining a complementary track on which the rail engages.

[0027] The projecting part and / or the receiving part attached by gluing are configurable to create a large number of types of connection between the cover and the base. These different possible connections offer different gestures for moving from the closed position to the open position, and vice versa, while maintaining the permanent connection between the cover and the base.

[0028] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - the first connecting part comprises a ring assembled by gluing to the first element among the base and the cover, the projecting part or the receiving part extending from the ring.

[0029] The design of the first connecting element with a ring bonded to the first element among the cover and the base provides a robust mechanical hold on the glass part, in particular at the periphery of the glass part. Thus, the robustness of the device packaging is further improved.

[0030] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - when the first connecting piece comprises the portion projecting relative to the first element among the base and the cover, the receiving portion is formed in the second element among the base and the cover, or when the first connecting piece comprises a receiving portion of the projecting portion, the projecting portion is formed in the second element among the base and the cover.

[0031] The formation of the projecting portion or the receiving portion on the second element among the cover or the base guarantees a precise fit with the first connecting piece which reinforces the reliability of use of the permanent connecting mechanism between the cover and the base in both the open and closed position of the housing. It is thus possible to provide a cover or a base made of glass with its plastic complement, which is already an advantage in environmental terms, while offering a use similar to that of an all-plastic packaging device.

[0032] According to variants, the packaging device according to the invention comprises one or / and the other of the following characteristics: - the connecting mechanism comprises a second connecting piece assembled by gluing to the second element among the base and the cover, the projecting part being formed on one of the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece, the receiving part of the projecting part being formed on the other of the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece.

[0033] When the connecting mechanism comprises a second connecting piece bonded to the second element among the cover and the base to ensure the permanent connection with the first connecting piece, a simple and robust assembly of the connecting mechanism is obtained, while offering versatility on the composition of the cover and the base according to the desired application and aesthetic appearance; and the base and the cover are made of glass.

[0034] Such a configuration of the connecting mechanism makes it possible in particular to provide that both the cover and the base are composed entirely of glass. In this case, optimal recyclability of the packaging device is obtained.

[0035] According to variants, the packaging device according to the invention comprises one or / and the other of the following characteristics: - the first connecting part includes an additional functional part; - the additional functional part is a hooking member suitable for cooperating with a complementary hooking member carried by the second element among the base and the cover in the additional closed position.

[0036] The provision of an additional functional part on the first part of connection allows the addition of different functions which are carried by a single connecting piece glued in one go on the first element among the cover and the base. Thus, the packaging device has additional functionalities, for example in terms of sealing or resistance to untimely opening, in particular by the addition of a hooking member directly on the first connecting piece. This is achieved in an inexpensive manner and with high precision in the positioning of these additional functionalities.

[0037] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - the first element among the base and the cover carries a cosmetic accessory, in particular a mirror, the cosmetic accessory being assembled by gluing on the first element among the base and the cover and / or on the first connecting piece.

[0038] The gluing of the first connecting piece provides the possibility of gluing other accessories such as a mirror together, thus adding an additional function to the packaging device. The first connecting piece can even serve as a basis for gluing the accessory.

[0039] According to variants, the packaging device according to the invention comprises one or / and the other of the following characteristics: - it comprises at least one continuous or discontinuous bonding line between the first connecting piece and the first element among the base and the cover; and the bonding line is received in a groove provided in the first connecting piece or on a shoulder of the first connecting piece.

[0040] Fixing by means of a continuous or discontinuous gluing line guarantees precision in the connection between the first connecting part and the first element among the cover and the base, limiting the impact on the aesthetic appearance.

[0041] The connecting piece may in particular be shaped to receive the bonding line, for example by providing a shoulder or a groove which reinforces the precision of the bonding and limits burrs.

[0042] According to a variant, the packaging device according to the invention comprises the following characteristic: - it includes a removable cup for receiving cosmetic product, received in the interior volume.

[0043] The mobility of the cup makes it possible to change only the cup and not to throw away the entire packaging device after the cosmetic product has been used up.

[0044] The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a cosmetic product packaging device comprising the following steps: - providing a base delimiting an interior volume; - provision of a cover configured to be movable relative to the base between an open position for access to the interior volume and a closed position for closing the interior volume;

[0045] at least a first element among the base and the cover being made of glass; - assembly by gluing to the first element among the base and the cover of at least a first connecting part of a connecting mechanism between the base and the cover;

[0046] characterized by mounting the connecting mechanism to permanently connect the base to the hood, both in the closed position and in the open position.

[0047] The invention will appear more clearly on reading the description which follows, given solely by way of non-limiting example, and made with reference to the drawings in which:

[0054] A first packaging device 10 according to the invention is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The packaging device 10 is intended to receive a cosmetic product 12.

[0055] As illustrated by Figures 1 and 2, the packaging device 10 comprises a housing 14 receiving the cosmetic product 12.

[0056] The cosmetic product 12 is advantageously a solid such as a powder, a liquid, in particular viscous, or a cream. The cosmetic product 12 is in particular a product intended for making up the skin, such as a foundation. Alternatively, the cosmetic product 12 is a cosmetic care product, a cosmetic product ca- pill or a cosmetic sunscreen product.

[0057] The housing 14 comprises a base 16 and a cover 18 for closing the base 16 mounted to move relative to the base 16 between a closed position visible in [Fig.l] and an open position. It comprises a connecting mechanism 20 connecting the base 16 and the cover 18 to guide the passage of the cover 18 between the closed position and the open position and to permanently maintain the cover 18 connected to the base 16 between these two positions and in each of these positions.

[0058] In the example shown in Figures 1 and 2, the housing 14 advantageously comprises a cup 22 containing the cosmetic product 12, the cup 22 being received removably in the base 16.

[0059] The base 16 is here made from a single piece of glass. It has a generally hollow shape delimiting an interior volume 24. The interior volume 24 forms a housing accommodating the removable cup 22. In this example, the base 16 has a cylindrical outline of circular section.

[0060] The base 16 comprises a bottom wall 26 intended to be placed on a horizontal support and a side wall 28. The bottom wall 26 and the side wall 28 delimit downwards and radially the interior volume 24.

[0061] The bottom wall 26 extends substantially horizontally when the base 16 is placed on a horizontal support. The bottom wall 26 delimits a lower surface 30 for supporting the housing 14 against a horizontal support.

[0062] The side wall 28 projects vertically from the bottom wall 26. The side wall 28 has an upper edge 34 for supporting the connecting mechanism 20. The side wall 28 of the base 16 defines a vertical housing 36 arranged to receive a portion of the connecting mechanism 20, as will be described below.

[0063] The vertical housing 36 opens towards the top of the side wall 28. It is delimited by two vertical lateral surfaces 38a, 38b and by a bottom surface 40. The vertical housing 36 opens vertically upwards and radially towards the outside of the housing 14.

[0064] The upper edge 34 of the side wall 28 defines an upper opening 32 for access to the interior volume 24.

[0065] The cup 22 has an external contour similar to the contour of the upper opening 32.

[0066] The cover 18 is also formed from a single piece of glass. The cover 18 comprises an advantageously flat upper wall 42, here in the form of a disc.

[0067] The connecting mechanism 20 comprises a first connecting piece 44 fixed to the cover 18, a second connecting piece 46 fixed to the base 16 and a connecting axis 48 connecting the first connecting piece 44 to the second connecting piece 46.

[0068] The connecting mechanism 20 is made of a material distinct from glass such as plastic, metal or wood.

[0069] The connecting mechanism 20 comprises at least one first bonding line 50 fixing the first connecting piece 44 to the cover 18 as well as at least one second bonding line 52 fixing the second connecting piece 46 to the base 16.

[0070] With particular reference to [Fig.2], the first connecting part 44 comprises an upper ring 54 fixed to the periphery of the cover 18, a connecting part 56 projecting relative to the upper ring 54, and in this example, a hooking member 58.

[0071] The upper ring 54 comprises an outer peripheral edge 60 for wedging the cover 18 and an inner support rim 62 set back under the outer peripheral edge 60.

[0072] The upper ring 54 defines a peripheral groove 64 between the outer peripheral edge 60 and the inner rim 62.

[0073] The projecting part 56 extends towards the base 16, from the upper ring 54. Here it is in the form of a tab for receiving the connecting pin 48. The projecting part 56 projects vertically downwards from the ring 54 and has a horizontal central passage 66 for receiving the connecting pin 48.

[0074] The hooking member 58 extends opposite the projecting part 56. Here it comprises a housing for receiving a complementary hooking member.

[0075] The first gluing line 50 is arranged in the peripheral groove 64 formed in the first connecting piece 44. The first gluing line 50 fixes the peripheral edge 68 of the upper wall 42 of the cover 18. The first gluing line 50 is continuous or is discontinuous. Thus, the cover 18 is wedged against and inside the peripheral edge 60 resting on the inner rim 62. It is held by gluing using the narrow gluing line 50, which ensures a satisfactory aesthetic appearance.

[0076] The second connecting part 46 comprises a lower ring 70 fixed on the upper edge 34 of the base 16, a receiving part 72 projecting downwards, inserted into the vertical housing 36, a complementary hooking member 74 intended to cooperate with the hooking member 58.

[0077] The lower ring 70 defines a lower shoulder 76 for bearing on the upper edge 34 of the base 16 and a plurality of wedging fingers 78 in the interior volume 24.

[0078] The wedging fingers 78 protrude towards the base 16 to fit in a complementary manner into the interior volume 24. They are distributed angularly around the axis AA in a reversible manner.

[0079] The receiving part 72 is here in the form of a yoke for holding the projecting part 56 of the first connecting piece 44. It comprises two opposite tabs 80a, 80b each provided with an orifice 82 for receiving the connecting axis 48. The tabs 80 of the receiving portion 72 are received between the lateral surfaces 38a, 38b of the vertical housing 36 of the base 16.

[0080] The second bonding line 52 is arranged in the lower shoulder 76 formed in the second connecting piece 46. The second bonding line 52 fixes the lower ring 70 to the upper edge 34 of the base 16. The second bonding line 52 is continuous or is discontinuous.

[0081] The complementary hooking member 74 is formed by a movable hook projecting towards the cover 18 from the lower ring 70. The complementary hooking member 74 is intended to engage with the hooking member 58 of the first connecting part 44 in the closed position of the housing 14.

[0082] As indicated above, the projecting part 56 is received at least partially in the receiving part 72 between the opposite legs 80a, 80b, the central passage 66 being located opposite the orifices 82. The connecting axis 48 is inserted through the orifices 82 of the legs 80a, 80b and the horizontal central passage 66 of the projecting part 56.

[0083] Thus, the first connecting piece 44 carrying the cover 18 is rotatably mounted around the horizontal axis 48 relative to the second connecting piece 46 linked to the base 16 between the closed position and the open position.

[0084] The first connecting piece 44, in particular the projecting part 56, and the second connecting piece 46, in particular the receiving part 72, are made of metal, plastic, or wood, thus ensuring precise dimensions.

[0085] In the closed position, the projecting part 56 is completely received in the receiving part 72 and the hooking member 58 of the first connecting part 44 is engaged on the complementary hooking member 74 of the second connecting part 46. The cover 18 closes the interior volume 24 which is inaccessible to the user.

[0086] In the open position, the hooking member 58 of the first connecting piece 44 is disengaged from the complementary hooking member 74, the cover 18 has been pivoted outwardly above and away from the base 16 and the projecting portion 56 has pivoted relative to the receiving portion 72 about the connecting axis 48.

[0087] The manufacture of the first device 10 according to the invention will now be described.

[0088] A first step of the manufacturing process comprises providing the first connecting piece 44 and the second connecting piece 46 as well as the insertion of the connecting pin 48 between the first connecting piece 44 at the level of the horizontal central passage 66 of the projecting part 56 and the second connecting piece 46 at the level of the orifices 82 of the legs 80a, 80b of the receiving part 72.

[0089] A second step of the manufacturing method comprises the deposition of the first bonding line 50 on the first connecting piece 44 and of the second bonding line 52 on the second connecting piece 46.

[0090] A third step comprises assembling the cover 18 to the first part of connection 44, via the first gluing line 50, and from the base 16 to the second connecting piece 46, via the second gluing line 52.

[0091] The operation of the first device 10 according to the invention will now be described.

[0092] When the user wishes to use the cosmetic product 12 located in the cup 22, he grasps the case 14. Then, he unlocks the hooking member 58 and pivots the cover 18 around the connecting axis 48 in order to move into the open position of the case 14. In this open position, the cosmetic product 12 is accessible to the user.

[0093] When the user has finished using the cosmetic product 12, he pivots the cover 18 again around the connecting axis 48 to position the cover 18 on the base 16 and move into the closed position.

[0094] When the cosmetic product 12 is used up, the user then removes the cup 22 fixed to the base 18 and positions a new cup filled with cosmetic product 12.

[0095] In a variant, illustrated in [Fig. 3], the cover 18 is made of glass and the base 84 is made of a material other than glass, in particular plastic or metal. The base 84 comprises the receiving part 86 formed or attached to its side wall 28 where the projecting part 56 of the first connecting part 44 engages. The base 84 also comprises the hooking member 88 complementary to the hooking member 58 of the first connecting part 44. The base 84 comprises wedging fingers 90 for fixing the cup 22.

[0096] In another variant, illustrated in [Fig. 4], the base 16 is made of glass and the cover 92 is made of a material other than glass. The cover 92 comprises a side wall 94 projecting downwards at the periphery of the upper wall 42. The cover 92 also comprises a projecting portion 96 formed or attached to the side wall 94. The projecting portion 96 engages in the receiving portion 72 of the second connecting piece 46. The cover 92 comprises a hooking member 98 complementary to the hooking member 74 of the second connecting piece 46.
