Abstract
The present invention concerns a retractable covering system suitable for covering a handling element protruding from the neck of a product reservoir, said system comprising an assembly ring defining a longitudinal axis and an axial direction; and a cap translatable along the longitudinal axis relative to the assembly ring between a deployed position, in which it extends substantially protruding relative to said ring, and a retracted position, in which it is at least partially retracted relative to said ring; said system further comprising: an elastic element biasing the cap toward the deployed position; and a reversible locking device to lock the cap in the retracted position.
Claims12
A retractable covering system suitable for covering a handling element protruding from the neck of a product reservoir, said system comprising:
- an assembly ring intended to be attached concentrically to the neck of the reservoir, having a first longitudinal end intended to be placed facing the reservoir and a second free longitudinal end, and defining a longitudinal axis and an axial direction from the first end to the second end;
- a cap that is movable along the longitudinal axis relative to the assembly ring, between a deployed position where said cap substantially protrudes in the axial direction relative to said ring and a retracted position where said cap is at least partially retracted in the direction opposite to the axial direction relative to said ring;
- an elastic element biasing the cap towards the deployed position;
- and
- a reversible locking device to lock the cap in the retracted position.
