Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9821491A1] The invention concerns a system for assembling the first and second parts of a device, comprising first and second coupling elements respectively associated with the first and second parts of the device. The coupling elements each comprise one or several contact zones arranged for spatially guiding the first and second parts during their relative displacement. These contact zones can consist in one or several sloping ramps arranged in circular manner on the internal face of the first or second corresponding part. The first and second coupling means can be made without undercut and arranged to be subjected to a deformation during gradual clamping so as to provide a substantially normal resistance at the interface zone. The invention is particularly applicable to the fields of cosmetics, perfume, foodstuffs and consumer goods, in particular for audio or CD-ROM compact discs.
