Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging for a substance in a liquid, particulate or pasty state, for example a cosmetics product such as nail varnish, comprising a container which is accessible via a neck, a closure which interacts with the neck of the container by means of a screw connection, as well as a removing element attached to the closure, such as a brush, pipette or scoop, which removing element extends into the container when the closure is screwed onto the neck and interacts with the closure by means of a screw connection.
  • a removing element attached to the closure such as a brush, pipette or scoop
  • Such a packaging in the form of a nail varnish bottle is known from US patent 3,157,905.
  • the closure in the form of a cap can be screwed onto the neck of the bottle by means of a threaded connection.
  • the removing element which is designed as a brush, has a handle with an external screw thread, which is in turn screwed into a hole in the cap which is provided with respective internal screw thread.
  • the brush is retained by means of a separate disk which is provided on the inside of the bottle.
  • a separate disk which is provided on the inside of the bottle.
  • the internal disk forms an obstruction in the interior of the bottle, which renders insertion of the brush more difficult.
  • the fact that the threaded connection between the brush and the cap has dimensions which are so small, in particular has such a small diameter that failures may easily occur, is a further drawback. The functioning of such a threaded connection with a small diameter leaves something to be desired, which adversely affects the ease of use.
  • a ftirther packaging in the form of a nail varnish bottle is known from US patent 5,116,154.
  • the handle of the brush is constantly kept pressed against the bottom of the bottle by means of a spring, which is provided in the cap of the nail varnish bottle.
  • the brush remains pressed against the bottom. This makes it possible to remove even the last remaining drops of nail varnish from the bottle with the brush.
  • the handle is pushed so far outwards with respect to the cap that the brush can still touch the bottom, even if the cap is removed completely from the bottle. In said state, the nail varnish can be removed almost completely by scraping the bottom of the bottle using the brush.
  • a first drawback is the limited ease of use of a cap with sprung brush.
  • the brush can slide back, against the spring force of the spring. This could be overcome by using a relatively strong spring, but this has the drawback that the pushing back of the brush when screwing the cap back onto the bottle is then rendered difficult.
  • the brush is relatively unstable due to the sprung suspension.
  • a spring mechanism has the drawback of a relatively high cost price, which is due to the production, material and assembly costs.
  • a further drawback could be that the brush is kept pressed against the bottom on account of the pressing action in such a manner that the shape of the spring becomes bent Over time, said bent shape of the brush will become permanent and will also persist when the cap with the brush has been unscrewed from the container.
  • a bent brush results in drawbacks during the application of the nail varnish. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a packaging, in particular a nail varnish bottle, which ensures, on the one hand, that virtually the entire substance contents, such as nail varnish, can be used, while the brush retains its normal shape in connection with the application of the nail varnish.
  • a ratio between the threaded connections offers various advantages.
  • a set of screw connections of approximately similar diameter, in particular an identical set of screw connections offers the advantage that production thereof is relatively inexpensive, hi addition, the structure can be assembled in a relatively simple manner.
  • the functioning of identical screw threads is much more reliable than with a relatively small threaded connection. After all, a relatively small threaded connection results in failures, such as jamming and defects, more quickly as the surfaces thereof which interact with one another are small and thus exposed to high material stresses.
  • the packaging according to the invention no longer has a spring to keep the brush pushed outwards with respect to the closure.
  • a screw connection is provided between the brush and the cap, in such a manner that displacement with respect to one another is possible by turning the brush and cap with respect to one another.
  • Screw connections having a similar lead angle or pitch are understood to mean screw connections which have equally large displacements in the longitudinal direction when the nut and the screw are turned one complete revolution with respect to one another.
  • the closure has an internal screw thread and the brush has a handle which comprises bristles at one end and has a nut at the other end which interacts with said internal screw thread of the closure.
  • the closure may have an internal screw thread which interacts both with the neck and with the nut.
  • the nut and the neck may be provided with sealing means.
  • Retaining means may be provided in order to prevent rotation of the nut and neck with respect to one another and to make the desired rotation of the closure and brush with respect to one another possible.
  • These retaining means may have mating shapes which can be brought into engagement with one another by placing the closure on the neck.
  • retaining means are mentioned which comprise at least one recess or projection of the nut, as well as a projection or recess on the container.
  • the retaining means may also be based on friction, for example as provided by a friction element which may be provided either on the neck or on the nut of the brush.
  • the sealing means may also comprise a sealing element which is attached to the neck, which sealing element comprises the projection or the recess.
  • the nut and the sealing element may comprise sealing surfaces which can be made to interact with one another.
  • fig. 1 shows a first variant of the packaging according to the invention
  • fig. 2 shows a second variant
  • fig. 3 shows an exploded view in perspective of the variant from fig. 2.
  • fig.4 shows a perspective view of the brush container turned upside down
  • fig. 5 shows a perspective view of the end cover turned upside down.
  • the figure shows a part of a packaging according to the invention, which represents a nail varnish bottle provided with a container 1.
  • the top side of the container 1 has a neck 2, which is provided with an external screw thread 3.
  • the closure 4 has been screwed onto the container 1, which closure comprises a cap 16 which has an internal screw thread 5.
  • the cap 16 comprises a nut section 6, having an external screw thread 7 which is in engagement with the internal screw thread 5 of the cap 16.
  • a handle 8 is attached to the nut section 6, which handle 8 extends into the container 1.
  • the brush 9 is provided on the underside of the handle 8, the brush 9 is provided. In the figure, the brush 9 is just above or just on the bottom 17 of the container 1.
  • a sealing ring 10 On the top side of the neck 2 of the container 1, a sealing ring 10 is provided which has a collar 11 which extends into the neck 2.
  • the sealing ring 10 has atop surface 12, on which the bottom surface 13 of the nut section 6 rests.
  • the sealing ring 10 is provided with lugs 14, which protrude upwards with respect to the top surface 12.
  • the nut section On the bottom surface 13, the nut section is provided with recesses 15 which are formed and positioned in accordance with the lugs 14.
  • the bottom surface 13 of the nut section can be placed on the top surface 12 of the sealing ring 10, with the lugs 14 and recesses 15 interacting with one another.
  • the nut section 6 is then locked against rotation.
  • the cap 16 moves downwards with respect to the nut section 6, with the internal screw thread 5 of the cap 16 coming into engagement with external screw thread 3 of the neck 2.
  • the cap 16 can be tightened until it hits the nut section 6, so that the nut section 6 is firmly pressed onto the sealing ring 10.
  • the handle 8 and brush 9 When the nut section 6 is being screwed on, the handle 8 and brush 9 always remain in the same position with respect to the bottom 10 of the container 1, so that the brash 9 is not deformed. Conversely, the handle 8 and brush 9 also remain in said position when the nut section 6 is unscrewed. As a result, the brush 9 can be moved over the bottom 17 of the container 1 when the cap 16 is completely unscrewed in order to also remove the last remaining drops of nail varnish.
  • the nut section 6 to which the handle 8 and the brush 9 are attached is provided with an external screw thread 20, while the cap 16 has an internal screw thread 21 at that location.
  • the diameter of these screw threads 20, 21 is larger than that of the screw threads 3, 5 between the neck 2 and the cap 16.
  • the advantage of this embodiment is that the functioning of both screw threads is excellent.
  • the diameter of the screw threads 20, 21 between the nut section 6 and the cap 16 is even relatively greater than that of the variant from fig. 1, as a result of which a very light and reliable screwing movement is made possible.
  • a significant advantage of the nut section 6 with a relatively large diameter is also that it creates space for the apron-shaped seal 22 which is injection-molded onto the transition 23 which conically narrows from the nut section 6 to the handle 8.
  • this apron-shaped seal 22 is brought into contact with the top side of said neck 2. This ensures that the substance which is present inside the container 1 cannot penetrate into the region with the various threaded connections.
  • the closure 4 consists of the above-described nut section 6 and the associated parts, the cover 25 and the sleeve 32.
  • the cover 25, which is also shown upside down in fig. 5 for the sake of clarity, has a stop 26 which is formed at the end of a threaded elevation 27.
  • the nut section has a corresponding stop 26, on a corresponding helical elevation 29.
  • the cover has opposite projections 30, while the sleeve has corresponding recesses 31.
  • the nut section 6 is first screwed into the screw thread 21 of the sleeve 32. Subsequently, the cover 25 is placed, with the projections 30 thereof coming to lie in the recesses 31. The purpose of the stops 26, 28 will be explained next.
  • the closure 4 can nevertheless be placed correctly on the container 1 in the following manner.
  • the nut section 6 is locked against rotation.
  • the sleeve 32 can now be rotated further, with the sleeve 32 moving in the direction of the container 1, as a result of the interaction between the screw threads 20, 21 of the nut section 6 and the sleeve 32.
