Definitions
- the present invention relates to a closing device for a container, intended in particular for the use on containers for "disposable” tissues.
- "Disposable” tissues are generally soaked with disinfectant liquids, deodorants and/or detergents and, as is well known, thanks to the extreme convenience thereof, by now they have become of daily use.
- Such tissues are generally used in combination with other detergent and/or moisturising products and/or talcum powders that are applied to the skin after the cleansing carried out by the above tissues .
- Such products are sold in special packages or containers, either stiff or flexible, provided with an opening .
- tissue are often used outside the household, for example on a journey or during the travelling imposed by everyday life.
- the object of the present invention therefore is that of providing a closing device for a container for disposable tissues, intended in particular for the use on containers for "disposable” tissues, which allows to facilitate the cleansing operations on babies.
- figure IA shows a perspective view of a first embodiment of the closing device for a container according to the present invention
- figure IB shows a side elevation view of the device of figure IA
- figure 1C shows a top plan view of the device of figure IA
- figure 2A shows a perspective view of a second embodiment of the closing device for a container according to the present invention
- figure 2B shows a side elevation view of the device of figure 2A
- figure 2C shows a top plan view of the device of figure 2A
- figure 2D shows a perspective bottom view of the device of figure 2A shown in usage configuration
- figure 2E shows a top plan view of the device shown in the configuration of figure 2D
- figure 3A shows a perspective view of a third embodiment of the closing device for a container according to the present invention
- figure 3B shows an enlarged view
- the closing device 10 made of a plastic material, substantially comprises a stiff frame 12, fixable to the container C at the opening thereof and provided with a central hole 14 through which the products contained into container C itself can be picked up, and at least one door 16, suitably hinged to frame 12 and provided with a tab 18 for facilitating the opening thereof.
- a second container 20 shaped and sized for containing at least a second product .
- the second product is selected from a moisturising and/or detergent and/or nourishing product and/or a talcum powder and/or a mixture thereof and/or a derivative thereof .
- Container 20 is made of a flexible plastic material and is provided with at least one valve 22 having an orifice 28 for selectively dispensing the product contained therein. Being on the inner surface of door 16, container 20 is only accessible after the first opening of door 16 itself, so as to keep the contents thereof intact until the usage is required in combination with the tissues located in the outer container.
- Container 20 is therefore constrained to door 16 through proper retainer means 24 represented, in the embodiments shown in figures 1 to 4, by special projections obtained on the inner surface of door 16 itself and suitable to be fit-coupled with the outer edge of container 20.
- the retainer means are otherwise formed by a plurality of hooking pins 32, made integral with the door 16 and disposed underneath the door 16 itself .
- Each hooking pin 32 is provided with an enlarged portion 34 (figures 5E and 6C) to retain in an unmovable way the container 20 on the inner surface of door 16.
- the hooking pins 32 can be four in number and they can be disposed at the edges of door 16, as shown in figures 5 to 8 , or they can be in any number according to the need and they can be disposed in any portion of door 16 itself .
- Such retainer means 24 and 32 may in any case be represented by equivalent means, and be obtained on container 20 rather than on door 16, without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention.
- container 20 is configured to remain fixed relative to door 16.
- the entire outer edge 26 of the inner surface of door 16 is made in relief, so as to prevent container 20 from going beyond it shifting with respect to door 16 itself.
- the dispensing valve 22 is arranged at the opening tab 18 or at one edge of door 16, and the orifice 28 thereof faces the bottom surface of door 16 itself.
- the dispensing valve 22 and its orifice 28 for dispensing the product may be disposed in any portion of container 20, without departing from the scope of protection of the present - S -
- the dispensing of the product contained in container 20 is therefore obtainable by exerting a specific pressure on the surface of container 20 itself.
- Figures 2A-2E show a second embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention.
- container 20 always constrained to door 16 by the retainer means 24, is however capable of shifting relative to the bottom surface of door 16 itself. More precisely, container 20 is movable between a first rest position, shown in figures 2A and 2C, wherein it is fully underneath door 16, and a second operating position, shown in figures 2D and 2E, wherein its dispensing valve 22 is capable of going beyond the outer edge 26 of door 16 for allowing the product exit.
- orifice 28 of the dispensing valve 22 faces the top surface of door 16 (figure 2D) and a discontinuity is provided on the outer edge 26 in relief for allowing the dispensing valve 22 itself to go beyond it in order to dispense the product contained in container 20.
- Figures 3A-3F show a third embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention.
- Container 20 is once again capable of shifting relative to door 16, so as to allow the dispensing valve 22 to go beyond the outer edge 26 of door 16 for the product exit .
- orifice 28 of the dispensing valve 22 is on a plane substantially perpendicular to the lying plane of door 16 and in this case it is provided with a cover 30, elastically connected to container 20 and capable of opening automatically when such container 20 is in the operating position.
- Figures 4A-4F show a fourth embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention, fully similar to that shown in figures 2A-2E except for the different shape of the dispensing valve 22 and of orifice 28 thereof.
- Figures 5A-5E show a fifth embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention, wherein container 20, made integral with door 16 and thus not being capable to shift relative to door 16 itself, is provided with a spout-shaped orifice 28, made with a soft deformable plastic material and closable by means of a rigid plastic projection 36 obtained on the outer edge of frame 12 (figure 5C) .
- a rigid plastic projection 36 obtained on the outer edge of frame 12 (figure 5C) .
- Figures 6A-6E show a sixth embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention, which differs from the embodiment shown in figures IA-1C merely for the hooking system of container 20 below the door 16 and for the position of orifice 28.
- Figures 7A-7D show a seventh embodiment of the closing device according to the present invention, fully similar to that shown in figures 6A-6E except for the fact that the orifice 28 can be closed by means of a first contrast element 38, made integral with the outer edge of frame 12 (figure 7A) , that engages with a second contrast element or wall 40 obtained on container 20 at the orifice 28 itself or on door 16.
- the first contrast element 38 comes into contact with the second contrast element 40, forming a pressure coupling so as to obstruct the orifice 28 and to prevent the accidental exit of the product contained into container 20.
- FIGS 8A-8D show a different embodiment of the closing device shown in figures 7A-7D, wherein contrast element 38 is shaped in a specific way so as to further improve the closure of container 20, as well as the dispensing of the product contained therein. More precisely, contrast element 38 is provided with a circular portion or edge 42, and the contact with the corresponding contrast element 40 provided on valve 22 can take place both superficially (contact with the circular edge 42 only) and with a partial conical insertion of lower contrast element 38 into the upper one 40.
- the upper contrast element 40 is manufactured with a rounded shape in order to improve the product exit from the container 20.
- the closing device for a container for disposable tissues achieves the objects mentioned hereinbefore, allowing to have integrated in the cover of a container preferably intended for containing disposable tissues, a second container for other products to use in combination with such tissues, so as to make cleansing operations, especially of babies, easier and minimise the space occupied.
- the specific dispensing devices obtained on the second container although in their different embodiments, always ensure the integrity of the content of the second container itself for all the dispensing operations following to the first opening of the tissue container.
- the closing device for a container for disposable tissues of the present invention thus conceived can be subject to several changes and variations, all falling within the same inventive concept .
