Abstract (en)
A wiping device comprises a coupling member including a flexible lip on the exterior surface of a body. The flexible lip has a first end attached to the body at a joining region and a free second end. The flexible lip makes an acute angle with the body to exhibit a resistance less than that exhibited during extraction of the wiping device from a container in the absence of stress. <??>A wiping device comprises a body (11), a wiping portion (21), and a coupling member to couple the wiping device to a container. The coupling member includes a flexible lip on the exterior surface of the body. The flexible lip has a first end attached to the body at a joining region (16) and a second end (15) which is free. In the absence of stress, the flexible lip makes an acute angle with the body to exhibit, during an introduction of the wiping device into the container, a resistance less than a resistance exhibited during extraction of the wiping device from the container. <??>Independent claims are also included for: <??>(1) an applicator unit comprising a container containing a product, an applicator member immersed in the product, and the inventive wiping device. The applicator member is configured to pass through the wiping device when it is withdrawn from the container to remove excess product member; and <??>(2) a wiping device comprising a body, a wiping member and bendable member(s) protruding from an outer surface of the body to form an acute angle when the member is unbent.
Abstract (fr)
La présente demande concerne un essoreur (10) destiné à équiper un récipient contenant un produit, notamment cosmétique, à appliquer au moyen d'un applicateur, ledit essoreur étant au moins en partie réalisé en un matériau élastiquement déformable, ledit essoreur comprenant un corps (11) dont une partie (22) forme l'organe d'essorage proprement dit, et des moyens (14) destinés à assurer l'accrochage de l'essoreur (10) sur le récipient, lesdits moyens (14) étant aptes à fléchir élastiquement par rapport audit corps (11) et étant configurés de manière à opposer une résistance à l'introduction de l'essoreur (10) dans le récipient, sensiblement inférieure à la résistance qu'ils opposent à son extraction. <IMAGE>
