The invention relates to a vial for a liquid or pasty cosmetic product, comprising an elongate body having a base area (11) and a free edge (12), a vessel (20) containing said product and which is translatably movable in the body between a bottom rest position and a top working position, an elastica
The invention relates to a vial for a liquid or pasty cosmetic product, comprising an elongate body having a base area (11) and a free edge (12), a vessel (20) containing said product and which is translatably movable in the body between a bottom rest position and a top working position, an elastically compressible guide device with a stable retracted configuration determining the bottom position and a maximum extension configuration determining the top position, comprising a hollow guide track in which a guide pin is inserted at least in the maximum extension configuration, as well as an application element (30) comprising a cap (40) suitable for being inserted inside the body and, in the opposite direction, for being at least partially extracted from said body by the elastically compressible guide device. An elastic insert (67) is provided next to said guide track to slow the movement of the guide pin when the elastically compressible guide device exits the maximum extension configuration thereof due to the cap being pushed into the body.

1. A container for a pasty or liquid cosmetic product, comprising: an elongate body, extending in a longitudinal direction, comprising a bottom zone and a free edge;a reservoir comprising said product and a neck, wherein the reservoir is movable in translation in the body between a low resting position close to the bottom zone and a high working position close to the free edge;an elastically compressible guide device, located between the body and the reservoir, wherein: said guide device comprises a stable retracted configuration defining the low resting position of the reservoir, and a maximum extension configuration defining the high working position of the reservoir,the guide device is convertible between said configurations by retraction of said guide-device beyond the stable retracted position against a spring, andthe guide device comprises, on the body or the reservoir, a hollow guide track disposed substantially in the longitudinal direction of the body, and, on the other of the body or the reservoir, a follower finger engaged in the hollow guide track, at least when the guide device is in the maximum extension configuration; andan application member comprising a shaft joined to a cap and terminated by an applicator, wherein: said application member is adapted to be loaded with said product when the shaft of the application member is inserted through the neck into the reservoir in a reloading configuration, andthe cap is adapted, in the reloading configuration, to engage and push the reservoir into the body until the reservoir reaches said low resting position, and, the cap is adapted to be at least partly extracted from the body under the action of the elastically compressible guide device to enable extraction of the application member out of the reservoir and the body;wherein a mounted-on elastic member is located near the guide track and is adapted to provide a resistant braking point to passage of the follower finger when the elastically compressible guide device leaves the maximum extension configuration and the cap is pushed into the body. 2. The container of claim 1, wherein the application member and the reservoir comprise complementary linking members adapted to link the application member with the reservoir during travel of the reservoir from the low resting position to the high working position, and to enable an extraction force applied to the cap of the application member to move the reservoir towards the high working position. 3. The container of claim 2, wherein the complementary linking members are adapted to seal a location between the shaft of the application member and the reservoir. 4. The container of claim 2, wherein: the shaft of the application member comprises a protuberance comprising a sealing portion located toward the applicator, and a transverse contact surface located towards the cap;the reservoir comprises a seal-forming constriction adapted to receive the sealing portion in axial abutment and a collar formed, along a circumference of the collar, by a plurality of rigid sectors and elastic sectors;the collar comprises a relaxed configuration wherein it is larger than the inside cross-section of the body, and a restricted configuration wherein it is confined inside the body; andthe rigid sectors comprise rims along the inside edge of the collar, wherein the rims are adapted to axially abut against the transverse contact surface of the protuberance to maintain the sealing portion against the seal-forming constriction when the reservoir is in the low resting configuration. 5. The container of claim 2, wherein the shaft of the application member comprises: a protuberance comprising, towards the applicator, a sealing portion, and, towards the cap, a transverse contact surface, andbosses in a cavity of the reservoir that are adapted to pass over the protuberance when the application member is moved into the reloading configuration in the reservoir, and to maintain the protuberance against a seat-forming constriction when the application member is in the reloading configuration. 6. The container of claim 1, wherein the follower finger remains engaged in the hollow guide track when the elastically compressible guide device passes from one of its configurations to the other, wherein the hollow guide track comprises a heart-shaped portion comprising a W-shaped zone wherein the central portion of the W-shaped zone defines the stable retracted configuration, andfurther wherein the following finger can only move past the central portion of the W-shaped zone in a single direction. 7. The container of claim 6, wherein that heart-shaped portion is spaced away from a zone of the hollow guide track where the follower finger is engaged when the elastically compressible guide device is in the maximum extension configuration. 8. The container of claim 6, wherein a part of the guide track, the elastic member, and the follower finger define the high working position of the reservoir, further wherein said part of the guide track comprises a drop-shaped portion comprising a point oriented towards a point of the heart shaped portion. 9. The container of claim 8, wherein the hollow guide track comprises, between the heart-shaped portion and drop-shaped portion, a single longitudinal portion adapted to be passed along by the follower finger in both directions. 10. The container of claim 1, wherein the mounted-on elastic member comprises an elastic member capable of deforming parallel to the walls of the reservoir and of the body and transversely to the longitudinal direction of the body. 11. The container of claim 10, wherein the mounted-on elastic member comprises a mounted-on elastic strip disposed close to a lateral flank of the hollow guide track, such that the passage of the follower finger causes deformation of the mounted-on elastic strip. 12. The container of claim 10, wherein: the guide track comprises a portion adapted to be passed along in both axial directions by said follower finger,the mounted-on elastic member comprises a U-shaped part comprising branches that are longitudinally oriented and form a space between them adapted to receive the follower finger, andthe mounted-on elastic member comprises a constriction formed by the ends of the branches and is adapted such that the follower finger can only pass the constriction by spreading apart the branches of the U-shaped part. 13. The container of claim 12, wherein: the U-shaped part is engaged in a cavity that is set back relative to a bottom of the guide track,the guide track comprises a connecting ramp adapted such that the follower finger slides over the branches of the U-shaped part and latches in said space when the reservoir approaches the high working position, andthe connecting ramp is adapted such that when the reservoir is moved towards the low resting position, the follower finger passes the constriction by spreading apart the branches to reach the bottom of the guide track. 14. The container of claim 1, wherein: the guide track comprises a portion adapted to be passed in both axial directions by the follower finger, andthe mounted-on elastic member comprises an elastic strip comprising the follower finger, wherein said elastic strip presses the follower finger towards the bottom of the hollow guide track. 15. The container of claim 1, wherein the hollow guide track is joined to the body and the follower finger is joined to the reservoir. 16. The container of claim 1, wherein the spring, the hollow guide track, and the follower finger are located between the lateral walls of the body and of the reservoir.
