Abstract:
A toothbrush device having a body defining a cavity and an input port disposed on the body in fluid communication with the cavity. The input port permits brushing by-products to pass through the input port and into the cavity while restricting passage of the brushing by-products outward from the cavity. In one form, the toothbrush device includes an elongated handle with a reservoir having at least a portion disposed within the handle. The reservoir is sized to hold a predetermined amount of oral care product, and a mouthpiece is in fluid communication with the reservoir to discharge the oral care product from the reservoir.
Abstract:
A deodorant dispensing system is provided. The system includes a reusable deodorant case having a body and a dial rotatably coupled to the body. The body is structured to receive a replaceable deodorant cartridge containing an unused deodorant puck. Operation of the dial along a predetermined rotational direction causes the deodorant puck to dispense for application by a user, whereas operation of the dial along a rotational direction opposite to the predetermined rotational direction causes the deodorant puck to retract within the deodorant cartridge. Operation of the dial in a direction to retract the deodorant puck after the deodorant puck it is fully retracted causes the dial to rotate freely with respect to the body without causing damage to internal components of the deodorant dispensing system.
Abstract:
Provided are a liquid storage and release device and a pen comprising the device. The liquid storage and release device comprises a tube shell (1), a capsule-like liquid container (3), a piercing component (4) and a piston rod (5), wherein the tube shell (1) is open at one end and closed at the other end, and the interior thereof is a tube cavity (2); the capsule-like liquid container (3) and/or the piercing component (4) is/are slidably arranged in the tube cavity (2); one end of the piston rod (5) is slidably arranged in the tube cavity (2) of the tube shell (1), and the other end of the piston rod (5) is provided with a liquid release opening (6); and the piston rod (5) is provided with a liquid channel through which the liquid release opening (6) is in communication with the tube cavity (2). When the piston rod (5) slides towards the interior of the tube cavity (2), the capsule-like liquid container (3) and the piercing component (4) apply pressure to each other under the action of the piston rod (5), so that the piercing component (4) pierces the capsule-like liquid container (3) so as to release the liquid pre-stored in the capsule-like liquid container (3).
Abstract:
A deodorant dispensing apparatus including a reusable product dispenser and a deodorant refill cartridge releasably coupled to the reusable product dispenser. The reusable product dispenser includes a cylindrical housing, a base, a telescope, and a spring. The base is rotatably coupled to the cylindrical housing and operably coupled to the telescope. The spring is operably coupled to a spring holster of the base and the telescope. The deodorant refill cartridge includes a refill barrel and refill plunger. The refill plunger is rotatably coupled to the refill barrel, which retains a deodorant product therein. The refill barrel includes a latching mechanism for releasably coupling the refill barrel to the reusable product dispenser.

Abstract:
An applying material extruding container includes a leading tube and a pipe member inserted into the leading tube so as to be slidable in the axial line direction of the leading tube relative to the leading tube. In the initial state, the front end of the pipe member is located at a position displaced backward a predetermined distance from the front end of the leading tube, and the applying material is filled from in the pipe hole of the pipe member to in the tube hole of the leading tube. The inner surface of the region of the tube hole extends straight in the axial line direction. In the applying material extruding container, when the container main body and the control tube are relatively rotated in one/the other direction, by the screwing action of the first screw part, the pipe member is made to move forward/backward together with the applying material.
Abstract:
In a click-type applicator, when the propelling element is moved forwards by a clicking operation, the advancing motion is transformed into a rotary motion of a transfer cam element in one direction by the function of guide slots of the propelling element and projected parts so that when a cam portion of transfer cam element meshes with a cam portion at the rear of a rotary cam element, the rotation of the transfer cam element causes rotary cam element to rotate and thereby move the screw shaft and hence a piston forwards. On the other hand, by releasing the clicking operation, propelling element is moved backwards due to the repulsive force of a spring, and the backward motion is transformed into a rotary motion of transfer cam element in the other direction by the function of the guide slots and projected parts so as to restore the original position.
Abstract:
A high internal water phase water-in-oil emulsified cosmetic in which, in a system formed of an oil phase including silicone elastomer, polydimethylsiloxane and polyether modified silicone and a water phase including water in an amount of 60% or greater by mass. The water phase, at least, including one nonionic surfactant having an HLB value of 14 or greater, selected from a group consisting of polyoxyalkylene alkyl ethers, polyglycerin fatty acid esters, polyoxyalkylene glycerin fatty acid esters and polyalkyleneglycol fatty acid esters, in an amount of 0.03 to 0.6% by mass, is blended with pigments including an organic pigment, in an amount of 0.05 to 8% by mass. The viscosity at the shear rate of 3.83 sec−1 at 25° C. is 1 to 100 Pa·sec, as well as an applicator with an applying part having a surface roughness Ra of 3 to 300 μm to store the cosmetic.
Abstract:
An airless applicator may deliver high/low viscosity liquids or semi-liquids, and contains a valve controlling flow between a product reservoir and an intermediate pooling area, while a narrow opening between the intermediate pooling area and a product dispensing chamber controls flow therebetween. This arrangement prevents backflow to the product reservoir, precluding an influx of contamination therein. Product delivery is by specially adapted applicator heads. In one embodiment, a plurality of prongs, and openings into the product dispensing chamber, permit application of mascara onto eyelashes. Alternating prong heights increases effectiveness in applying mascara onto all sides of a user's lashes. Other applicator heads are configured for lip product applications such as for lipstick, and for eye products such as eyeliner and eye shadow. An air-tight sealing cap having a spring biased inner cap member may prevent moisture from escaping from the product dispensing chamber and prevent entry of contaminants therein.
Abstract:
In the liquid material feeding container, a piston is formed with a seal portion at a front portion thereof, being sliding in contact with an inner wall of a housing portion of a barrel body, and a cylindrical portion having projections in an outer periphery of a rear end portion and a female thread portion in an inner periphery thereof, and in an outer peripheral surface of the front portion extending frontward from the above-described operating portion of the above-described rotating element, a male thread portion is formed, and in the above-described barrel body, a space of the housing portion is formed in a frontward portion and a groove portion with which the projection is engaged is formed in a backward portion along an axial direction.
