  • Patent number: 8905666
    Abstract: When the cap is released, the application body that is urged to the applicator front end side slides to the applicator front end side, and in this condition, the click button is actuated in linkage by the inclined part of the click button being pushed by the application body projection so that the click button moves up and juts out from the peripheral side of the front barrel and the valve set opens at approximately the same time. Upon usage, when the jutting click button is pushed and released, the application body is slid in the axial direction by the abutment between the inclined part of the click button and the applicator body projection so as to be able to open and close the valve set.
