  • Patent number: 9539748
    Abstract: An injection-molding press for overmolding a second part onto a first part (8) includes a movable portion and a fixed portion, with a first mold element (11, 12) on one of the press portions and a second mold element (20) on the other press portion so as to form a cavity (C) between the mold portions when the press is closed. The first mold portion (11, 12) has a first support surface (125a) movable in the first mold portion and the second mold portion (20) has a second support surface (22a). In the closed position of the press with a first part (8) in the first mold portion and the first support surface (125a) advanced in the working position, at least a portion (8b) of the front end of the first part (8) is clamped between the two support surfaces (125a, 22a), forming a tight seal for the cavity (C).

  • Patent number: 9498902
    Abstract: A press for manufacturing a one-piece object includes two rotary plates (110, 210) which are parallel but offset, each carrying a mold (120, 220) having two portions. Each mold portion can be placed above or below, so that the mold portion (121) of the first mold situated above faces the mold portion (222) of the second mold situated below. First parts of the object, for example skirts, are inserted in the press in an insertion zone (Z1). In parallel, second parts, for example caps, are introduced into an introduction zone (Z2). In a common zone (Z3), third parts, for example dispensing heads, are overmolded on the first and second parts brought close in the common zone in the same position as in the finished object. After opening the press, the plates are turned so that the finished objects are in the portion of the second mold which is above.

  • Patent number: 8807396
    Abstract: A trigger diffuser to be secured to the neck of a vial provided with an outlet valve (31) provides for securing it on the vial, actuating the valve (31), a trigger (200) movable between a neutral position, in which the valve is not actuated, and a diffusion position, in which an actuation element is moved in the direction of the valve so as to actuate it, and an outlet channel for the transport out of the diffuser of the product coming out of the valve. In order to store the diffuser without the risk of accidentally actuating the trigger even after the first withdrawal, the diffuser includes a blocking element (304) movable between a blocking position, in which the trigger (200) is prevented from reaching the diffusion position, and a release position, in which the trigger can be moved from the neutral position to the diffusion position.
