Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a valve, including a rigid end piece that defines a center; a rod at the center of the end piece defining an axis; and a flap, wherein the flap is in one piece and has a flexible wall situated opposite a free end of the rod, the flexible wall is perforated by an orifice concentric with the end of the rod, the orifice has a contour substantially homothetic with that of the contour of the end of the rod in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the rod, the orifice has a surface below a projected surface of the end of the rod in the plane, the flap is connected to the end piece by a non-deformable fixed connection, and the flexible wall presses against the end of the rod at any point of its surface in contact with the end.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a valve made up of a rigid wall and a flap. The flap has a non-perforated flexible and deformable peripheral region situated facing the rigid wall. The rigid wall is perforated by at least one orifice situated facing the peripheral region. The flap is joined to the rigid wall by a non-deformable fixed connection. The peripheral region has a substantially conical shape before mounting with a large base and a small base and an inner face on the inner side of the cone. The peripheral region exhibits a deformation following the pressing of the inner face of the large base against the rigid wall in a assembled position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tube having a dispensing head and a flexible skirt. The skirt and the dispensing head include a single wall manufactured in a single injection-molding operation in an injection mold. According to the invention, the wall is made of a material whose base constituent is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or a mixture of polymers, at least one of which is a high-density polyethylene representing from 5% to 100% by weight of the polymers constituting the wall. The present invention also relates to a process for manufacturing such a tube.

Abstract: A tube, for example for mascara, has a container equipped with a receptacle, a chamber and a wiping ring, and an applicator including a brush, a cap and an axial rod connecting the brush to the cap, in which the rod ensures closure of the wiping ring, and the ring has an internal diameter adapted to the specifications of the brush. According to the invention, the rod has an annular closure surface with a non-zero radial dimension, and the closure of the wiping ring by the rod is performed by applying the annular closure surface on the ring in an area of mutual contact having a non-zero radial dimension.
