Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf eine Kosmetikeinheit umfassend zwei Applikatoren mit jeweils einem Stiel, wobei die Applikatoren jeweils in einen Vorrats-Behälter eintauchen, jeder Behälter einen Behälterhals mit einem Außengewinde aufweist, auf welches jeweils ein Kupplungsteil aufschraubbar ist, und wobei die beiden Behälter mittels der aufgeschraubten, gleichzeitig als Verschlusskappe dienenden Kupplungsteile über eine Kupplungshülse mittels einer Rastverbindung lösbar miteinander verbindbar sind.The invention is directed to a cosmetic unit comprising two applicators, each with a handle, wherein the applicators immerse each in a storage container, each container has a container neck with an external thread on which a respective coupling part is screwed, and wherein the two containers by means of screwed, at the same time serving as a closure cap coupling parts via a coupling sleeve by means of a latching connection are releasably connected to each other.

Eine derartige Kosmetikeinheit ist bekannt aus DE 102 13 643 A1 . Die bekannte Kosmetikeinheit hat sich in der Praxis sehr bewährt. Sie ermöglicht es, in ein und derselben Einheit zwei unterschiedliche Applikatoren und/oder Kosmetika für die Anwendung bereitzustellen. Die zentrale Kupplungshülse dient dabei einerseits zur Verbindung der beiden Behälter für die Kosmetika. Andererseits bildet sie eine dekorative Fläche, die das Erscheinungsbild der gesamten Einheit wesentlich mitbestimmt.Such a cosmetic unit is known from DE 102 13 643 A1 , The known cosmetic unit has proven very successful in practice. It makes it possible to provide two different applicators and / or cosmetics for the application in one and the same unit. The central coupling sleeve serves on the one hand to connect the two containers for the cosmetics. On the other hand, it forms a decorative surface, which significantly determines the appearance of the entire unit.

Vergleichbare Kosmetikeinheiten sind weiterhin bekannt aus DE 100 39 490 A1 , DE 197 33 290 A1 , US 5,509,742 B1 , GB 123 639 A1 und US 3,690,777 .Comparable cosmetic units are still known from DE 100 39 490 A1 . DE 197 33 290 A1 . US 5,509,742 B1 . GB 123 639 A1 and US 3,690,777 ,

Bei solchen Einheiten tritt das Problem auf, dass dort, wo die Wandstärke der aus Kunststoff gespritzten Kupplungshülse größer ist, bedingt durch den Spritzvorgang nach außen sichtbare Fließschlieren erkennbar sind, die als ästhetisch störend empfunden werden.In such units, the problem arises that where the wall thickness of the molded plastic coupling sleeve is greater, due to the injection process outwardly visible flow streaks can be seen, which are perceived as aesthetically disturbing.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zu Grunde, unter Wahrung der herstellungs- und handhabungstechnischen Vorteile einer bekannten derartigen Kosmetikeinheit deren äußeres Erscheinungsbild zu verbessern.On this basis, the invention is based on the object, while maintaining the production and handling technical advantages of a known such cosmetic unit to improve its external appearance.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Rastverbindung einen Rastwulst an der Innenseite der Kupplungshülse umfasst, der im äußeren Endbereich der Kupplungshülse angeordnet ist.This object is achieved in that the latching connection comprises a locking bead on the inside of the coupling sleeve, which is arranged in the outer end region of the coupling sleeve.

Eine derartige Kosmetikeinheit ermöglicht es in an sich bekannter Weise Kosmetika mit herkömmlichen Maschinen abzufüllen, wobei andererseits die Verbraucherin die Möglichkeit hat, die beiden Einheiten individuell zu benutzen oder beim Einkauf auf ihre persönlichen Wünsche und Bedürfnisse zugeschnitten individuell zu kombinieren.Such a cosmetic unit makes it possible in a conventional manner to fill cosmetics with conventional machines, on the other hand, the consumer has the ability to use the two units individually or individually tailored to purchase tailored to their personal needs and needs.

Darüber hinaus wird erfindungsgemäß überraschender Weise aber erreicht, dass der besonders augenfällige zentrale Bereich der Kupplungshülse an der Außenseite völlig frei von Schlieren ist, wobei durch das Vorsehen der Rastwülste im stirnseitigen Randbereich dort das Auftreten von Schlieren stark vermindert wird oder zumindest optisch weit weniger hervortritt.In addition, according to the invention surprisingly achieved, however, that the particularly obvious central portion of the coupling sleeve on the outside is completely free of streaks, which is greatly reduced by the provision of the locking ridges in the frontal edge region there the occurrence of streaks or at least optically far less prominent.

Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass der Rastwulst weniger als 5 mm von der jeweiligen Stirnseite der Kupplungshülse angeordnet ist.It is preferably provided that the latching bead is arranged less than 5 mm from the respective end face of the coupling sleeve.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform kann der Rastwulst im eingerasteten Zustand die jeweilige Stirnseite der Kupplungshülse übergreifen und dementsprechend dort einrasten, so dass eine mit dem Rastwulst korrespondierende gesonderte Rastnut nicht erforderlich ist.In a preferred embodiment, the locking bead in the locked state, the respective end face of the coupling sleeve overlap and accordingly engage there, so that a corresponding with the locking bead separate locking groove is not required.

Bei einer anderen Ausführungsform wirkt der Rastwulst mit einer korrespondierenden Rastnut des jeweiligen Kupplungsteils zusammen.In another embodiment, the locking bead cooperates with a corresponding locking groove of the respective coupling part.

Bei dieser Ausführungsform kann der Rastwulst einen in Einsteck- bzw. Einrastrichtung abgeschrägten Endbereich aufweisen, um das Einstecken und Einrasten zu erleichtern, wohingegen gegen die Einsteckrichtung ein um ca. 90° gegen die Längsachse der Kupplungshülse verlaufender Abschnitt vorgesehen sein kann, um die Rastfestigkeit im eingerasteten Zustand zu erhöhen.In this embodiment, the locking bead may have a tapered in insertion or locking direction end portion to facilitate insertion and locking, whereas against the insertion direction by about 90 ° against the longitudinal axis of the coupling sleeve extending portion may be provided to the locking strength in to increase latched state.

Eine in der Zeichnung dargestellte Kosmetikeinheit 1 umfasst zwei Behälter 2, 3 für je ein Kosmetikum, wie zum Beispiel Mascara, und zwei Kupplungsteile 4, 5, wobei jedes Kupplungsteil einen topfartigen Abschnitt 6, 7 aufweist, und wobei sich vom Topf-Boden ein Stiel 8, 9 wegerstreckt, an dessen distalem Ende je ein Applikator 10, 11 angeordnet ist. Da die Kupplungsteile 4, 5 identisch ausgestaltet sind, wird nachfolgend nur noch der in Fig. 1 untere, mit II gekennzeichnete Bereich näher beschrieben.A cosmetic unit 1 shown in the drawing comprises two containers 2, 3 for each of a cosmetic, such as mascara, and two coupling parts 4, 5, wherein each coupling part has a pot-like portion 6, 7, and from the bottom of the pot a stem 8, 9 wegerstreckt, at the distal end of each an applicator 10, 11 is arranged. Since the coupling parts 4, 5 are configured identically, only the lower part indicated by II in FIG. 1 will be described in more detail below.

Aus Fig. 2 ist erkennbar, dass der Behälter 3 einen Behälterhals 12 mit einem Außengewinde 13 aufweist. Das Kupplungsteil 5 weist an seinem topfartigen Abschnitt 7 ein mit dem Gewinde 13 korrespondierendes Innengewinde auf, so dass das Kupplungsteil 5 gleichzeitig als Verschluss für den Behälter 3 dient.From Fig. 2 it can be seen that the container 3 has a container neck 12 with an external thread 13. The coupling part 5 has at its pot-like portion 7 a corresponding to the thread 13 internal thread, so that the coupling part 5 serves as a closure for the container 3 at the same time.

Das Kupplungsteil 5 greift in eine Kupplungshülse 14 ein, die einen querverlaufenden Trennboden 15 aufweist und relativ zu diesem spiegelsymmetrisch aufgebaut ist.The coupling part 5 engages in a coupling sleeve 14, which has a transverse separating bottom 15 and is constructed relative to this mirror-symmetrical.

Aus Fig. 3 wird deutlich, dass die Kupplungshülse 14 einen "vorspringende" Rastwulst 16 aufweist. An diesen schließt sich in Richtung weg von der Stirnseite 17 der Kupplungshülse 14 eine Rastnut 18 an, in die ein umlaufender Rastwulst 19 des Kupplungsteils einrastbar ist. Der Rastwulst 19 weist in Einrastrichtung vorne liegend (Pfeil 20) einen abgeschrägten Bereich 21 und in Einrastrichtung hinten liegend einen Bereich 22 auf, der im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Längsachse der Kupplungshülse 14 verläuft. Hierdurch wird der Einrastvorgang erleichtert und die Rastfestigkeit erhöht.From Fig. 3 it is clear that the coupling sleeve 14 has a "projecting" locking bead 16. At this closes in the direction away from the end face 17 of the coupling sleeve 14, a locking groove 18 into which a circumferential locking bead 19 of the coupling part can be latched. The latching bead 19 has in the latching direction at the front (arrow 20) a chamfered region 21 and, in the latching direction at the rear, a region 22 which runs essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the coupling sleeve 14. As a result, the latching process is facilitated and increases the latching strength.

Die in den Figuren 4 bis 6 dargestellte Ausführungsform ist prinzipiell gleich aufgebaut wie die Ausführungsform nach Fig. 1 bis 3, so dass insoweit auf die vorstehende Beschreibung verwiesen werden kann.The embodiment shown in Figures 4 to 6 is basically the same structure as the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 3, so that reference can be made in this respect to the above description.

Lediglich die Kupplungshülse 14' ist gegenüber der vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsform dahingehend modifiziert, dass der Rastwulst 16' unmittelbar an der Stirnseite 17 ausgebildet ist und der Abstand A zwischen der Oberfläche des Trennbodens 15 und dem Scheitelbereich der Rastwulst 16' so dimensioniert ist, dass beim Einrasten eines Kupplungsstücks 4, 5 dieses einerseits zum Anschlag gegen den Trennboden 15 gelangt und gleichzeitig die Rastwulst 16' über der Stirnseite 23 des Kupplungsstücks 4, 5 einrastet, d. h. bei dieser Ausführungsform ist am jeweiligen Kupplungsteil 4, 5 keine gesonderte Rastnut 18 erforderlich.Only the coupling sleeve 14 'is compared to the embodiment described above modified in that the locking bead 16' is formed directly on the end face 17 and the distance A between the surface of the partition 15 and the apex portion of the locking bead 16 'is dimensioned so that when snapped a coupling piece 4, 5 this one hand reaches the stop against the separating tray 15 and at the same time the locking bead 16 'on the end face 23 of the coupling piece 4, 5 engages, d. H. in this embodiment, no separate locking groove 18 is required on the respective coupling part 4, 5.
