Abstract

A closing element, among a cover and a ring, for a container for a cosmetic product includes a wall having at least one metallic and elastically deformable connection region, the at least one connection region being partially detached from the rest of the wall. The at least one connection region being adapted to cooperate with another closing element, among the ring and the cover, by elastic deformation so as to removably assemble the two closing elements with each other. A closing assembly for a cosmetic product container is also presented.

Claims (33)

1. Closing element for a container for cosmetic product, the closing element being a first closing element intended to be assembled to a second closing element of the container so as to form a closing assembly, the first closing element being one of a cover and a ring of the container, the second closing element being another one of the ring and the cover of the container, the first closing element comprising:

a wall having at least one metallic and elastically deformable connection region in the shape of a tab, said at least one connection region being partially detached from the rest of the wall and connected to the rest of the wall by at least two sides, the at least two sides including two adjacent sides or two opposite sides, and

said at least one connection region being adapted to cooperate with the second closing element by elastic deformation so as to removably assemble the first and second closing elements with each other and said at least one connection region, in the shape of the tab, is deformed over plural assembling and disassembling operations of the cover on the ring without losing an original shape of the tab once at rest when the cover is disengaged from the ring.

2. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the wall is metallic and said at least one connection region is formed integrally with the wall.

3. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the tab comprises a protuberance adapted to cooperate with the second closing element so as to removably assemble the elements with each other.

4. The closing element according to claim 3 , wherein the protuberance is integrally formed with the tab.

5. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the original shape of the tab is a parallelepiped shape and connected to the rest of the wall by at least one side.

6. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the tab is connected to the rest of the wall by only two sides.

7. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the tab comprises a flat surface and transition surfaces, respectively extending between said at least two sides and the flat surface.

8. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the wall is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.

9. The closing element according to claim 1 , comprising an external cover and an internal cover mounted inside the external cover, and the wall of the first closing element is an inner wall of the internal cover.

10. The closing element according to claim 9 , wherein the internal cover has a lower part which conforms to an internal wall of the external cover, and the internal cover has an upper part at a distance from the internal wall of the external cover.

11. The closing element according to claim 1 , wherein the first closing element is a ring adapted to be fixed to the container.

12. Closing assembly of a container for cosmetic product, comprising:

a first closing element and a second closing element, the first closing element including:

a wall having at least one metallic and elastically deformable connection region in the shape of a tab, said at least one connection region being partially detached from the rest of the wall and connected to the rest of the wall by at least two sides, the at least two sides including two adjacent sides or two opposite sides, and said at least one connection region being adapted to cooperate with the second closing element by elastic deformation so as to removably assemble the first and second closing elements with each other; and

wherein the first closing element cooperates with the second closing element between a closed position and an open position, one of the first closing element and the second closing element being adapted to be associated with the cosmetic product container and said tab is elastically deformed over plural assembling and disassembling operations of the first closing element and the second closing element without losing an original shape of the tab once at rest when the first closing element is disengaged from the second closing element.

13. The closing assembly according to claim 12 , wherein the first closing element is a cover and the wall is an internal wall of the cover, and the second closing element is a ring of the container.

14. Closing element for a container for cosmetic product, the closing element comprising:

a first closing element, the first closing element being one of a cover and a ring of the container;

a second closing element, the second closing element being another one of the ring and the cover of the container;

the first closing element intended to be assembled to the second closing element so as to form a closing assembly,

the first closing element comprising:

a wall having at least one metallic and elastically deformable connection region in the shape of a tab,

said at least one connection region being partially detached from a remainder of the wall and connected to the remainder of the wall by at least two sides, the at least two sides including two adjacent sides or two opposite sides,

said at least one connection region being adapted to cooperate with the second closing element by elastic deformation so as to removably assemble the first and second closing elements with each other, and

wherein the first closing element cooperates with the second closing element between a closed position and an open position, one of the first closing element and the second closing element being adapted to be associated with the cosmetic product container and said tab is deformed over plural assembling and disassembling operations of the cover on the ring without losing an original shape of the tab once at rest when the cover is disengaged from the ring.

15. The closing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein the first closing element is a cover and the wall is an internal wall of the cover, and the second closing element is a ring of the container.

16. The closing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein the at least two sides include two adjacent sides.

17. The closing element according to claim 16 , wherein the tab is connected to the remainder of the wall by only the two adjacent sides.

18. The closing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein said the at least two sides include two opposite sides.

19. The closing element according to claim 18 , wherein the tab is connected to the remainder of the wall by only the two opposite sides.

20. The closing assembly according to claim 14 , wherein the tab comprises a protuberance adapted to cooperate with the second closing element so as to removably assemble the elements with each other, the protuberance is integrally formed with the tab.
