Publication number: 20070045448Abstract: A device for atomizing a fluid product includes a reservoir containing the product and air, with the reservoir including a wall having at least one deformable area. A dip tube communicates selectively or permanently with an atomizing aperture to atomize the product when pressure is exerted on the deformable area. According to a preferred example, the dip tube includes at least one air passage to allow at least part of the air contained in the reservoir to mix with the product conveyed by the dip tube. The air passage is located between the two ends of the dip tube. Further, before a first use of the device and in an at least partially deformed position of the deformable area, the at least one air passage is not immersed in the product, regardless of the position of the reservoir.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2006Publication date: March 1, 2007Applicant: L'OREALInventor: Nicolas Albisetti

Patent number: 6948639Abstract: A device for packaging and dispensing of a cosmetic product which includes a container to hold the product, with the container being delineated by a body. A movable element moves relative to the container body and is capable, in response to an action exerted manually on a surface of an actuating element, of moving from a first position to a second position. The movable element incorporates a first lip intended to engage with an inner wall of the body, during at least part of its movement, thereby isolating a dose of product inside the container in a manner to cause its expulsion through at least one dispensing aperture. The movable element also includes an upper lip capable of being applied in a leaktight manner against the inner wall during at least part of its movement from the first position to the second.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2004Date of Patent: September 27, 2005Assignee: L'OrealInventors: Nicolas Albisetti, Mathilde Winckels, Daniel Crosnier

Patent number: 6932246Abstract: An assembly for packaging and dispensing a product, especially a cosmetic product. The assembly includes a container containing the product and delimited by a body, one end of which is closed by a bottom. A movable component is movable relative to the body of the container and is capable, in response to an action exerted manually on a surface of an actuation component, of passing from a first position in which the volume delimited between the movable component and the bottom of the container is a maximum, to a second position in which the volume is a minimum, so as to pressurize the product contained in the volume and deliver the product through at least one dispensing orifice. When the movable component returns from the second position towards the first, air passes into the volume through at least one passage formed between the movable component and an internal surface of the container.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2003Date of Patent: August 23, 2005Assignee: L'OrealInventors: Daniel Crosnier, Florent Duqueroie, Nicolas Albisetti

Publication number: 20040234323Abstract: A device for applying a product may include a container configured to contain a product and a case with a compartment configured to receive the container. The case may define an opening and the container may be configured to be moved relative to the case between a first angular position in which product in the container is accessible via the opening, and a second angular position in which product in the container is inaccessible. The device may further include an applicator. In some examples, the applicator may include a first portion configured to contribute to restricting axial movement of the applicator with respect to the case, and a second portion distinct from the first portion, wherein the second portion may be configured to contribute to rotationally coupling the applicator to the container so that movement of the applicator causes movement of the container between the first and second angular positions.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2004Publication date: November 25, 2004Inventors: Nicolas Albisetti, Aline Abergel

Patent number: 6758374Abstract: The invention relates to a packaging and dispensing device for applying a cosmetic and/or care product, in particular to the hair and/or the scalp, the device comprising a receptacle including a bellows having first and second regions that are moved towards each other when the bellows is compressed. On being compressed, the bellows enables a quantity of substance to be dispensed. The device also has an adjustment member for modifying the compression stroke of the bellows, and thus the quantity of substance that is dispensed. The device is arranged in such a manner that the bellows is compressed by thrust exerted by the user substantially on the axis of the bellows.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2001Date of Patent: July 6, 2004Assignee: L'OrealInventor: Nicolas Albisetti

Patent number: 6745987Abstract: A device for selectively immobilizing a container, such as a container containing a cosmetic product, on a surface may include a sleeve having a free edge defining an opening for mounting the device on the container. One end of the device remote from the free edge may form a perforated bottom, a peripheral edge of which may form a lip configured to be pressed in sealed manner onto the surface. In collaboration with a portion of the container, the device may form a suction cavity to thereby selectively immobilize the container on the surface. The perforated bottom may optionally define at least one opening, where the at least one opening may extend away from the geometric center of the bottom.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2001Date of Patent: June 8, 2004Assignee: L'Oreal S.A.Inventors: Guilhem Rousselet, Nicolas Albisetti
