RETRACTABLE COVERING ELEMENT AND PRODUCT PACKAGING AND APPLICATION ASSEMBLY EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention concerns a retractable covering system (2) suitable for covering a handling element (10) protruding from the neck (4) of a product reservoir (3), said system comprising an assembly ring (13) defining a longitudinal axis (X) and an axial direction (S); and a cap (14) translatable along the longitudinal axis (X) relative to the assembly ring (13) between a deployed position, in which it extends substantially protruding relative to said ring (13), and a retracted position, in which it is at least partially retracted relative to said ring (13); said system further comprising: - an elastic element (15) biasing the cap (14) toward the deployed position; and - a reversible locking device to lock the cap (14) in the retracted position.
