Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for spraying a product, in particular a cosmetic product, makeup product or care product, said device comprising:
a container containing the product, and a dispensing head ( 3 ) comprising a body ( 5 ), and an endpiece, in particular a diffuser ( 7 ), attached to the body,

the body and the endpiece ( 7 ) being configured to allow the product to be sprayed through outlet orifices about a longitudinal axis (Y) of the endpiece, in particular in at least two different directions, which are in particular diametrically opposite,
the dispensing head ( 3 ) comprising at least first ( 15 ) and second ( 16 ) chambers, in particular concentric chambers, through which the flow of product successively passes before emerging from the outlet orifices, at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being able to be offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. Device for spraying a product, said device comprising:
a container containing the product, and
a dispensing head comprising a body, and an endpiece, attached to the body,
the body and the endpiece being configured to allow the product to be sprayed through outlet orifices about a longitudinal axis (Y) of the endpiece, in at least two different directions,
the dispensing head comprising at least first and second chambers, the first and second chambers being concentric chambers, through which the flow of product successively passes before emerging from the outlet orifices, at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being able to be offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices,
the body having two concentric and continuous annular ribs,
the outlet orifices leading directly to the outside, without an attached nozzle.

2. Device according claim 1 , the first and second chambers being at least partially annular.

3. Device according to claim 2 , the first at least partially annular chamber extending along the longitudinal axis and being inclined with respect to a longitudinal axis of the device by a non-zero angle.

4. Device according to claim 1 , the endpiece comprising a separation skirt which separates the first and second chambers, this separation skirt being pierced with at least two openings allowing the flow of product to pass through.

5. Device according to claim 1 , in which the second chamber is surrounded by a peripheral skirt cooperating with the body in such a way as to ensure the closure of the second chamber.

6. Device according to claim 5 , in which the body comprises an annular groove intended to receive the peripheral skirt of the endpiece.

7. Device according to claim 1 , in which the endpiece, has an upper face of a generally curved shape with an outward convexity.

8. Device according to claim 1 , in which the body comprises a central channel intended to allow the flow of product to pass from the container to the endpiece.

9. Device according to claim 1 , in which the endpiece, comprises a stem allowing it to be fixed to the body.

10. Device according to claim 9 , the stem having a harpoon shape.

11. Device according to claim 9 , the stem comprising at least one longitudinal groove allowing the product to pass from the body towards the endpiece.

12. Device according to claim 1 , the flow emerging from an outlet orifice being oriented non-parallel to the longitudinal axis (X) of the device.

13. Device according to claim 1 , in which a peripheral skirt of the endpiece, in which skirt the outlet orifices are formed, engages between the two concentric and continuous annular ribs.

14. Device according to claim 1 , the outlet orifices having axes which are coplanar.

15. Device according to claim 1 , wherein the endpiece is a diffuser.

16. Device according to claim 1 , at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices.

17. Device for spraying a product, said device comprising:
a container containing the product, and
a dispensing head comprising a body, and an endpiece including a diffuser, attached to the body,
the endpiece comprising a stem allowing it to be fixed to the body,
the body and the endpiece being configured to allow the product to be sprayed through outlet orifices about a longitudinal axis of the endpiece, in at least two different directions,
the dispensing head comprising at least first and second concentric chambers, through which the flow of product successively passes before emerging from the outlet orifices, at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being able to be offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices,
the body having a central channel intended to allow the flow of product to pass from the container to the endpiece and two concentric and continuous annular ribs.

18. Device according to claim 17 , wherein the stem allows the endpiece to be fixed to the body with snap-fit engagement.

19. Device for spraying a product, said device comprising:
a container containing the product, and
a dispensing head comprising a body, and an endpiece including a diffuser, attached to the body,
the endpiece comprising a stem allowing it to be fixed to the body,
the body and the endpiece being configured to allow the product to be sprayed through outlet orifices about a longitudinal axis of the endpiece, in at least two different directions,
the dispensing head comprising at least first and second concentric chambers, through which the flow of product successively passes before emerging from the outlet orifices, at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being able to be offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices,
the body having a central channel intended to allow the flow of product to pass from the container to the endpiece and two concentric and continuous annular ribs,
the stem comprising at least two longitudinal grooves allowing the product to pass from the body towards the endpiece, wherein the at least two longitudinal grooves include a partially circular cross section.

20. Device according to claim 17 , wherein the stem is configured to be insertable into the central channel.
