The present invention relates to a bottle for a liquid product, particularly a cosmetic or perfume product. The bottle is formed of two parts, one of glass and the other of a rigid material. The two parts are assembled in a fluidtight manner to form the bottle.
In the field of packaging, it is conventional to create a glass bottle by blow molding. In such a case, a bottle having a tubular neck of narrow dimensions is created, which can be sealed closed by any suitable means. As the dimensional precision of such a blowing process is quite low, the sealing solution needs to be oversized. The seal is facilitated by the small size of the opening, which make it easy to oversize the sealing solution to ensure a sufficiently fluidtight result for the desired application. One example can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 6,158,604, for example. However, glass blow molding is a technique which only provides control of the external form given to the bottle. It is therefore common for a glass bottle resulting from a blow molding process to have an uncontrolled irregular internal shape, particularly when the blow molding is carried out so that the bottle has a polygonal external shape.
However, control of the inner shape of glass bottles is increasingly in demand, particularly in perfumery and in the cosmetics and spirits industries where the aesthetics of the packaging plays a particularly important role.
There is an alternative technique for creating a glass container, which enables control of both the external shape and the internal shape. This alternative technique is glass pressing. However, the creation of a pressed glass container does not make it possible for the container to have a tubular neck with narrow dimensions, which is necessary for receiving a dispenser, as is the case when the bottle is of blown glass. A container made of pressed glass conventionally defines an opening of large dimensions, similar in size to those of a forming die, and cannot form a bottle.
It is known from the prior art to close a container of pressed glass by means of a threaded lid with a ring-shaped gasket to seal the packaging device.
However, such a solution is limited to the production of containers comprising a circular opening.
It is also known from the prior art to close a plastic container by snap-fastening a lid. U.S. Pat. No. 3,223,278 provides an example of such an embodiment. However, glass does not make it possible to control manufacturing tolerances as well as for plastic. It would therefore be difficult to transpose such a solution to a glass container to ensure sealing of the packaging device.
Lastly, it is known from the prior art to create a bottle from a first piece of pressed glass and a second piece of an elastically deformable material. WO 2014/053793 describes an example of such an embodiment. However, given the non-circular geometry of the opening, closure piece, and locking piece, the parts in contact between the bottle of pressed glass and the closure piece are not uniformly stressed. Furthermore, although this solution is satisfactory, the shape of the perimeter of the opening of the pressed glass piece where a bead is provided and the shape of the closure piece where a relief is provided is quite complex and bulky.
The present invention proposes an alternative solution suitable for packaging devices comprising a glass bottle of any shape, in particular a connection solution that is simpler to implement and less bulky.
More specifically, an object of the present invention is a bottle with neck for a liquid product, having an external shape, comprising:
a glass piece, said glass piece having an annular assembly surface;
a rigid piece having an annular assembly surface;
a neck formed on the glass piece or rigid piece;
an adhesive providing a fluidtight seal either between the annular assembly surface of the glass piece and the assembly surface of the rigid piece, or between the annular assembly surface of the glass piece and a sealing band, the sealing band being securely connected to the annular assembly surface of the rigid piece and thereby ensuring the fluidtight seal,
the glass piece, rigid piece, and neck giving the bottle its external shape.
Such a bottle has the advantage of being made using a glass piece, in particular made of pressed or pressed-and-blown glass, and another piece which is rigid, while simplifying the provision of the fluidtight sealing between the two parts. Indeed, given the fact that the solution uses an adhesive, no bead or relief for mechanical assembly is required to make the bottle, which facilitates the manufacture of the two parts of the bottle and eliminates the need for a locking piece which would be required for a snap-closure solution. Furthermore, the adhesive ensures the fluidtight sealing and no ring seal is required. Finally, this solution allows creating glass pieces having an opening that is non-circular and non-planar (not inscribed in a plane).
In one embodiment, the glass piece comprises a side wall, an annular edge of which forms an opening, the annular assembly surface being located on the annular edge forming the opening. In addition, the annular edge forming the opening may have a shoulder in which the annular assembly surface is formed.
In another embodiment, the adhesive is a silicone adhesive.
In another embodiment, the assembly surface of the glass piece faces the annular assembly surface of the rigid piece, and the adhesive is placed therebetween. In addition, the rigid piece may comprise an annular flange on which the annular assembly surface of the rigid piece is provided.
In another embodiment, the bottle comprises a glue trap on the annular assembly surface of either the glass piece or rigid piece or is distributed between the glass piece and rigid piece. In addition, the glue trap may have a filling groove for depositing adhesive, at least one bonding surface, and at least one overflow groove, the filling groove, the bonding surface, and the overflow groove being substantially concentric.
In another embodiment, the sealing band comprises two concentric annular portions, a first sealing portion for the annular assembly surface of the glass piece and a second sealing portion for the annular assembly surface of the rigid piece, and the annular assembly surfaces of the glass piece and rigid piece are substantially adjacent and substantially in the same plane.
In another embodiment, the annular assembly surfaces of the glass piece and rigid piece are oriented collinearly to the direction of assembly of the glass piece with the rigid piece.
In another embodiment, the annular assembly surfaces of the glass piece and rigid piece are oriented in a direction forming, with a direction of assembly of the glass piece with the rigid piece, an acute angle that is substantially non-zero, preferably substantially equal to 90°.
The embodiments described above may advantageously be combined.
In another aspect of the invention, a packaging device for a liquid product is provided, comprising a bottle as described above and a dispenser of liquid product.
In yet another aspect of the invention, a method for manufacturing the bottle is provided.
The invention will be better understood from the following description and the accompanying figures. These are merely illustrative and are in no way limiting to the invention. The figures show:
In the various figures, the same references designate identical or similar elements.
A bottle with neck having at least one container for liquid product will be described below with reference to
The bottle 1 comprises a glass piece 2, a rigid piece 3, and a neck 4 which may be made either on the glass piece 2 or on the rigid piece 3. The glass piece 2, the rigid piece 3, and the neck 4 give the bottle its external shape. The glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 are bonded to each other with an adhesive 5 to form the bottle 1, the adhesive ensuring the fluidtightness of the bottle 1. The adhesive 5 also ensures the mechanical strength of the bottle 1. Such adhesive solution enables simplification of the shape of the various parts of the bottle 1 to be assembled together, in contrast to a snap-closure solution which requires these parts to have complex shapes. Indeed, in case the glass piece has an opening, such an embodiment of the bottle does not require any external bead on the edge of the opening of the glass piece. This solution does neither require the rigid piece to have a skirt with a relief, the skirt having a shape complementary to the bead. In addition, no locking piece is necessary, thus reducing the number of elements to be provided to form the bottle and reducing the bulk and cost of the assembly solution.
The adhesive ensures a permanent bond. “Permanent” is understood to mean that the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 cannot be detached from each other under normal conditions of use.
The adhesive 5 may be notably selected from:
two-component adhesives such as epoxy adhesives;
thermoplastic adhesives which are compositions mainly comprising a thermoplastic polymer such as an ionically crosslinked thermoplastic polymer (ionomer) of ethylene and an acid, for example Surlyn® which is a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl(methacrylic acid); and
silicone adhesives.
Two-component adhesives have the advantage of meeting both the requirements of compatibility (the liquid product to be contained in the bottle does not deteriorate the adhesive) and neutrality (the adhesive does not release any compounds into the liquid product). These adhesives enable obtaining a very high degree of mechanical strength but have the disadvantage of requiring mixing at the time of application, thus complicating the manufacturing process. As these adhesives also have a longer complete curing time, it is best to ensure a minimum of at least fifteen minutes and preferably an hour or even a day of intermediate storage time before stressing the assembly, for example in subsequent operations of assembly, handling, or packaging. Thus, in case a high production rate is required, a thermoplastic adhesive or a silicone adhesive should therefore be preferred.
The thermoplastic adhesives preferably used in configurations having a sealing band (see below) are quick to cure and offer the advantage of being easy to handle and use and require no intermediate storage time. However, these adhesives are less versatile.
Finally, silicone adhesives are the preferred adhesives for this application. They offer fast polymerization time, do not require mixing at the time of application, and exhibit sufficient mechanical strength for the application. They provide a good fluidtight sealing which is maintained over time and offer the advantage of satisfying both the requirements of compatibility (the liquid product to be contained in the bottle does not deteriorate the adhesive) and neutrality (the adhesive does not release compounds into the liquid product).
However, it was not obvious for the skilled person to use this type of adhesive, particularly in cosmetics, perfumery, and food (packaging for liquids such as spirits). Indeed, silicone adhesives give off a pronounced odor of acetic acid that repels consumers of cosmetics, perfumes, and beverages, and can alter the olfactory and/or taste properties of these products.
However, the inventors have managed to overcome this preconception, because they have discovered that after a sufficiently long storage period, the odor fades until it is no longer noticeable to consumers and has no effect on the olfactory and/or taste properties of the products. Thus, by ensuring a sufficiently long storage period before sending it to packing, filling, and capping, generally at least a week or even two weeks, the disadvantage due to the acetic acid odor no longer applies.
The fluidtight properties of the adhesive can be measured in sealing degree. The sealing degree can be defined by leak testing. Such leak testing may for example comprise placing the bottle 1 filled with a reference liquid, for example water or glycerol, in a vacuum chamber in a predetermined orientation, for example where the content is in contact with the potential leakage area of the bottle 1, i.e. at the assembly between the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3. The ambient pressure in the chamber is gradually dropped at a predefined pace, the sealing degree being defined by the ambient pressure at which the content begins to leak from the bottle. Some embodiments disclosed herein can achieve a sealing degree of −800 millibar (mbar) or even −950 mbar relative to atmospheric pressure. In many applications, such a sealing degree is not required: it is sufficient to have a sealing degree reaching −350 mbar, preferably −400 mbar.
The glass piece 2 is mainly composed of glass. Any type of glass can be used that is compatible with the intended application, including types of glass already in use today in the bottle industry.
The glass piece 2 may form either a lower portion, an intermediate portion, an upper portion, or a side portion of the bottle 1. These terms are used to designate certain parts of the bottle when the bottle is arranged in the intended orientation for its storage or use. Preferably, the glass piece 2 forms the lower portion or upper portion of the bottle 1. The glass piece 2 comprises an annular assembly surface 22. Throughout the present disclosure, the adjective “annular” is understood to mean “having the shape of a continuous closed curve, the curve possibly including angles.” The so-called annular elements are therefore not necessarily circular.
The rigid piece 3 may form either a lower portion, an intermediate portion, an upper portion, or a side portion of the bottle 1. Throughout the present disclosure, “rigid” is understood to mean a material which cannot be deformed by the user under normal conditions of use. Preferably, the rigid piece 3 forms the upper portion or lower portion of the bottle 1. The rigid piece 3 comprises an annular assembly surface 32.
The rigid piece 3 may be made of various materials, including glass, metal (particularly stainless steel), and plastic (particularly a polyolefin such as polypropylene or polyethylene; a polyalkene terephthalate such as polybutylene terephthalate). In particular, a material compatible with and neutral to the intended content of the bottle is chosen.
Generally, the annular assembly surface 32 of the rigid piece 3 can be provided on a flange 39 thereof (
The shape and implementation of the annular assembly surface 22 are dependent on the shape of the glass piece 2.
Similarly, the shape and implementation of the annular assembly surface 32 are dependent on the shape of the rigid piece 3.
Various possible shapes for the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 are described below with particular reference to
The piece 2, 3 may have a generally flat shape (
As a variant concerning the flat shape of the piece 2, 3, the piece may further comprise an intermediate assembly surface 27, 37 inside the ring formed by the annular assembly surface 32 on the contour of the rigid piece 3 (
In another example, the piece 2, 3 may have a domed or vaulted shape with a neck 4 at its top opposite an opening 21, 31. Once assembled, the neck 4 may be oriented inwardly or outwardly with respect to the bottle 1. The annular assembly surface 22, 32 is then on the periphery of the opening 21, 31 of the piece 2, 3, either on the inner surface of the piece, the outer surface of the piece, or on the projecting surface (rim) of the piece. Alternatively, the dome or vault may have two necks at its top. Additionally or alternatively, the piece comprises a flange having a side facing in the same direction as the dome or vault. The annular assembly surface is then on this side facing in the same direction as the dome or vault.
In another example, the piece 2, 3 has a side wall 23, 33 which closes on itself to form a space, and at least one opening 21, 31 (
The piece 2, 3 with the side wall 23, 33 may have a base 24, 34 extending the side wall 23, 33; in other words, the base 24, 34 and side wall 23, 33 are made as one piece, for example when the piece 2, 3 forms the lower portion of the bottle 1 (
The piece 2, 3 with the side wall 23, 33 may alternatively have a top 25, 35 extending the side wall 23, 33; in other words, the top 25, 35 and side wall 23, 33 are made as one piece, for example when the piece forms the upper portion of the bottle 1. A neck 4 is formed on the top 25, 35 (
In yet another example, the piece 2, 3 has a side wall 23, 33 which closes on itself to form a space, and an intermediate wall 26, 36 arranged inside the space and separating the latter into two space portions. The side wall 23, 33 and the intermediate wall 26, 36 are formed as one piece. The two space portions are distinct, meaning that in the normal storage position of the bottle 1 once filled, a liquid product contained in one of the two space portions cannot flow into the other space portion, and vice versa.
The two space portions separated by the intermediate wall 26, 36 may each form a container 1a, 1b (
The two space portions separated by the intermediate wall 26, 36 can each form a container 1a, 1b when at least one additional base 24, 34 is provided, the intermediate wall 26, 36 and side wall 23, 33 then having the same height where they are connected to each other (
Alternatively, the base or bases 24, 24a, 24b, 34, 34a, 34b are replaced by one or tops 25, 25a, 25b, 35, 35a, 35b formed as one piece with the side wall 23, 33. The arrangement of the annular 22, 22a, 22b, 32, 32a, 32b and intermediate assembly surface(s) 27, 37 remains identical to that described above but with the base or bases replaced by one or more tops (
Of all of these variants, the preferred embodiments for the glass piece 2 are those where the glass piece 2 has a side wall 23 forming an opening 21 and where the opening 21 has a maximum projected surface area of at least 10 cm2, preferably at least 50 cm2. “Maximum projected surface area” is understood to mean the maximum surface area obtained by projecting the opening 21 onto a plane.
Furthermore, the opening 21 and the neck 4 must be distinguished when both are present on the glass piece 2. An opening 21 is always bordered by the annular assembly surface 22 and possibly the intermediate assembly surface 27.
The outer shape of the piece 2, 3, and in particular its opening or openings, may have various forms, for example a prismatic shape (for example cubic; parallelepipedal, in particular rectangular; rhombohedral; triangle-based, etc.), spherical (full or truncated), conical (in particular with flat circular or polygonal base, or spherical base), cylindrical (in particular with circular or polygonal base), etc. Preferably, the glass piece 2 has an opening or openings of a shape that is not rotationally symmetrical.
The adhesive solution has a considerable advantage here over the snap-fitted solution of the prior art, because the shape of the assembly surfaces is of little consequence. Indeed, the adhesion of the glass piece 2 with the rigid piece 3 does not require any special shapes: it is only needed to have assembly surfaces to be assembled together which have extension areas of complementary shapes. As for the shapes of their surfaces, they are not necessarily complementary since the adhesive enables to overcome any surface discrepancies in the shape. Moreover, the shapes of their surfaces can be varied, although the simplest shape is a flat shape. For example,
In the figures, each assembly surface is represented as being on the rim of the corresponding wall. This is not a limitation; as noted above, an assembly surface can be implemented on any surface of a free end of the walls. In addition, in most of the figures each assembly surface is represented in a form that can lie in a single plane perpendicular to a general longitudinal axis of the bottle 1. Of course, this is purely illustrative and the possible embodiments are not limited to this mode. For example, as illustrated in

The outer shape of the glass piece or pieces 2 is preferably substantially identical to that of the rigid piece or pieces 3, but this is optional. What matters is the shape of the assembly surfaces 22, 32 of the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 which must match, in other words must be substantially identical.
The assembly surface 22, whether annular or intermediate, of the glass piece 2 may be implemented so as to face the corresponding assembly surface 32 of the rigid piece 3 once the bottle is assembled. The adhesive 5 is then placed therebetween. For example, one piece is placed on the other, and the adhesive is applied between the two pieces as illustrated in
In this particular case, at least one of the assembly surfaces 22, 27, 32, 37 may comprise a glue trap 6 (
The glue trap 6 not only ensures that the adhesive 5 does not overflow, but also increases the bonding surface area without increasing the bonding width, in other words the thickness of the wall on the rim of which the adhesive is deposited. In particular, given the possibly different nature of the materials of the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3, and taking into account the nature of the adhesive 5, it is possible that the adhesive 5 will adhere better to one of the pieces. The creation of a suitably dimensioned glue trap 6 on the piece which does not bond as well with the adhesive 5 thus substantially balances the bonding of the adhesive on the possibly different materials of the two pieces.
The shape of the glue trap 6 corresponds to the assembly surface 22, 27, 32, 37 on which it is provided, meaning that it is annular if the assembly surface is an annular assembly surface 22, 32; it is rectilinear if the assembly surface is on a rectilinear surface, for example in some cases for an intermediate assembly surface 27, 37.
Alternatively, an assembly surface of the glass piece and the assembly surface of the corresponding rigid piece do not face each other, but are arranged side by side, oriented in the same direction and lying substantially in the same plane. To achieve this, the glass piece comprises, at the rim of its side wall 23 or its intermediate wall 27, a shoulder 29 which extends to have the same shape as that of the corresponding assembly surface. The shoulder 29 is located closer to the opening 21 than the corresponding assembly surface. The shoulder 29 serves to receive the edge of the rigid piece 3. The height of the shoulder 29 is substantially equal to the thickness of the edge of the rigid piece 3 which may be a flange.
Bonding is achieved using a sealing band 7 (
The sealing band 7 is preferably a laminate with at least one support layer 7S and one adhesion layer 7A. The support layer 7S may be of paper, plastic, or metal (for example aluminum). The adhesive or adhesives 5, 5′ form the adhesion layer 7A. Such an embodiment of the sealing band 7 enables simplification of the manufacturing process since it exempts from the step of depositing adhesive on the annular assembly surfaces 22, 32, which may have complex shapes.
In the case where one of the pieces is a flat piece, the sealing band 7 may not be annular and may cover the entire outer surface of the flat piece.
The description of the variants with sealing band 7 can be modified to swap the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3.
The fluidtight seal can be reinforced when the rigid piece 3 is a plastic piece. To this aim, a sealing lip 38 is provided on the rigid piece 3 for this purpose. The sealing lip 38 is annular and extends along the annular assembly surface 32, and possibly along the intermediate assembly surface 37 of the rigid piece 3 (
The annular assembly surfaces 22, 32 of the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 may be oriented collinearly to a direction of assembly of the glass piece 2 with the rigid piece 3.
Alternatively, the annular assembly surfaces 22, 32 of the glass piece 2 and the rigid piece 3 are oriented in a direction forming a substantially non-zero acute angle, preferably substantially equal to 90°, with a direction of assembly of the glass piece 2 with the rigid piece 3.
All embodiments described above are compatible with the inevitable presence of geometrical defects inherent to the manufacturing tolerances in the production processes used, which lead in particular to the impossibility of having complete control over the shape of the pieces and in particular the glass piece 2. These defects can result in deviations from the desired shape of the piece of less than 10%, preferably less than 5%, more preferably less than 3% of the largest dimension of the glass piece 2. The present invention makes it possible to easily compensate for these production defects because the adhesive 5 allows filling in the local variations in distance between the annular assembly surfaces 21, 31 that face each other.
The bottle 1 described above can be used to create a packaging device 10 for a liquid product. Such a packaging device 10 further comprises a dispenser 8 in addition to the bottle 1. The dispenser 8 is used to dispense from the bottle 1 the liquid product contained therein. Any dispenser 8 can be used that is suitable for the product contained in the bottle 1. Alternatively, the packaging device 10 may have two dispensers 8, in particular dispensers of different types or of the same type but with different dispensing capacities. If one of the pieces of the bottle has an intermediate wall, the packaging device 10 has two dispensers 8a, 8b in order to dispense the contents from each of the containers 1a, 1b of the bottle 1.
Examples of such a packaging device 10 are illustrated in

A method for manufacturing the bottle 1 is described below.
First, the method comprises providing a glass piece. The glass piece can be manufactured in various ways. Preferably, the glass piece is obtained by pressing. For pressing, a die cavity and a forming punch together forming a space to receive a glass gob are used. The forming punch is movable relative to the die cavities, between a retracted position and an extended position in which the formed space defines the future shape of the glass piece.
In the particular case where the glass piece has a side wall and therefore an opening, this opening is wide to allow passage of the forming punch. The forming punch defines the internal shape of the glass piece, and the die cavities its external shape. The die cavity has an opening through which the forming punch is inserted, a side wall giving shape to the side wall of the glass piece. In the case of a glass piece with a base, the die cavity also has a base surface. In the case of a glass piece with a top, the die cavity provides a bottom portion for forming the neck.
Where appropriate, the pressing step described above is followed by a blowing step, during which the pressed piece is deformed by blowing into its inside volume. This blowing step can increase the inside volume of the glass piece by about 10% to 20%, if one wants to maintain the geometrical properties of the inside surface that were obtained during the pressing step. The term “pressed” as used herein covers any implementation comprising a pressing step, including the case where it is followed by a blowing step.
The method also comprises providing a rigid piece. The rigid piece can be manufactured in various ways depending on the material in which it is made. For example, if the rigid piece is made of glass, it can be manufactured by the pressing method described above. If the rigid piece is made of plastic or metal, molding and/or machining methods may be used. Rolling methods may also be used.
Subsequent steps of the method are dependent on whether or not a sealing band is used.
In the case where no sealing band is used, the glass piece and the rigid piece are assembled and bonded together. For this purpose, adhesive is applied to the assembly surface or surfaces of one or both among the glass piece and the rigid piece (in the case where a glue trap is provided, the adhesive is placed in the filling groove; the amount of adhesive is then chosen so that after assembly of the glass piece with the rigid piece, the adhesive does not spread beyond the overflow groove or grooves). The assembly surface or surfaces of the glass piece are therefore placed in contact with the assembly surface or surfaces of the rigid piece and then held there for the time needed for the adhesive to begin to adhere (meaning to dry, harden, or polymerize).
In the case where a sealing band is used, adhesive is placed either on the band or on the assembly surface or surfaces of the glass piece or rigid piece. The sealing band and/or the glass piece and/or the rigid piece are held in place for the time needed for the adhesive to begin to adhere (meaning to dry, harden, or polymerize).
One will note that this manufacturing method is much simpler than a manufacturing method in which various elements must be snap-fitted together.
The method further comprises the storage of the bottles. This storage period is necessary when the adhesive used is an adhesive that has a strong odor, such as epoxy adhesives and silicone adhesives, in order to allow the odor to fade. The storage time is preferably at least one week, more preferably at least two weeks. The bottle is then filled.
The bottle can be used in the manufacture of a packaging device. For this, a dispenser is assembled on each neck of the bottle. This assembly can be done after filling.
