Patent ID: 8579531

Claim:
Device ( 10 ; 140 ) for dispensing a cosmetic product, of the type comprising: a container ( 12 ) which extends along an axis (A-A′) and which delimits, for the cosmetic product, a reservoir ( 28 ) which opens via a dispensing opening ( 26 ), a head ( 14 ) which is for dispensing cosmetic product and which blocks the dispensing opening ( 26 ), the head ( 14 ) comprising a rotary application member ( 44 ) and a retention cap ( 42 ) which receives the rotary application member ( 44 ) so as to rotate freely about at least one axis of rotation; a blocking cover ( 16 ) which delimits a space ( 84 ) for receiving the head ( 14 ), the cover ( 16 ) being able to be moved between a position for blocking the container ( 12 ) in which the head ( 14 ) is received in the receiving space ( 84 ) and a position for dispensing the product, the container ( 12 ) being shaped so as to prevent the device ( 10 ) from being retained in a stable manner on a horizontal support with the head ( 14 ) in an upward position, the cover ( 16 ) comprising a wall ( 80 ) for stable retention of the device ( 10 ) on a horizontal support with the head ( 14 ) in a downward position and a member ( 86 ) for urging the rotary application member ( 40 ) against a sealing seat ( 60 ) which is delimited by the cap ( 42 ) in the position for blocking the container; wherein the urging member ( 86 ) is configured to be resiliently deformed relative to the cover ( 16 ) between an idle configuration which it occupies in the position for dispensing the product and a resiliently deformed configuration which it occupies in the position for blocking the container, and wherein the urging member ( 86 ) is at least partially deformed as soon as the container ( 12 ) is arranged with the head in a downward position in the cover ( 16 ), when the cover ( 16 ) occupies a stable position on a horizontal support, regardless of the angular position of the dispensing head ( 14 ) relative to the cover ( 16 ) about the axis (A-A′); wherein the rotary application member ( 40 ) can be moved along the axis (A-A′) of the head in a channel ( 54 ) between an internal position for blocking an annular passage ( 68 ) defined between the head and the rotary application member and an external position for dispensing product; wherein in the internal position, the rotary application member ( 40 ) blocks the reservoir ( 28 ) in a substantially sealed manner towards the outside of the device, and wherein in the external position, the cosmetic product is free to flow from the reservoir ( 28 ), towards the outside of the device.
