Abstract: A device to dispensing a compound has a movable support arranged in a device housing in order to act on the compound, and a rotary handle in order to move the support between a lower starting position and a maximum upper extended position of the support. The handle has a spindle which can be rotated about a longitudinal axis provided in the movement direction of the support. A spindle nut is additionally provided on the support. The spindle nut has a length in the direction of the longitudinal axis, the length being greater than the distance between the lower starting position and the maximum upper extended position in the movement direction of the support. According to another solution, a combination of the support, the spindle, and the compound can be inserted into the device housing from the top for connecting to the rotary handle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to three stick product containers. One has a removable top cap with a crown and a hollow base, such that the top cap can be removed and inserted into the hollow base. The top cap has associated with it a thumb lever push ring to prevent the stick from rolling when laid horizontal. The other container is more suitable, for example, for a lip balm that has a top cap with a living hinge that can be flipped all the way back, inserted into a plug insert hole in the base of the cap, and then the cap is used to support the container in an at rest position to prevent it from rolling.

The movement of the platform allows dispensing of product via a dispensing opening in the tube. A side wall of the tube includes an inner cross-section having an inwards-concave portion and an inwards-convex portion. The tube is arranged in a base having an outwards-convex outer cross-section.

Abstract: The invention concerns an applicator device comprising a storage means for storing a product to be applied, and an increased pressure-producing device having an elastic device, wherein the elastic device is designed to press with its elastic return force against a boundary means of the storage means, to produce an increased pressure in the storage means. In accordance with the present invention it is provided that the increased pressure-producing device is controllable to provide a reduction in the pressure in the storage means.

Abstract: A pen includes a vertical pen barrel, a mounting seat mounted fixedly on a top end of the pen barrel, and a molded metal unitary unit. The unit includes a pen top disposed swingably on the seat, and a pen clip extending integrally and downwardly from the pen top. The clip has a clamping end, which is movable relative to the pen barrel between a clamping position, where the clamping end presses against the pen barrel, and a releasing position, where the clamping end is spaced apart from the pen barrel. A biasing unit biases the clip to the clamping position.

Abstract: There is provided a device for recovering and dispensing the unusable portion of a pasty substance, such as that of a personal health and beauty product, that is located in the base portion of the original packaging. The device includes a casing having a closed end, an open end and a wall extending between the closed end and the open end.

Abstract: An applicator device for high or low viscosity liquids essentially comprises a container (R) having a plunger (2) which can be operated by turning a rod (3), whereby the liquid in the container is squeezed out into an applicator brush (4). Said rod (3) is hollow and carries the brush (4) at one of its ends (3b) while the other end (3a) is immersed in the container (R). Between these ends, it passes through the plunger (2) and is in engagement therewith via a screw thread (3c). Said rod (3) is rotated by a ratchet wheel (10) controlled by a side push-button (6). The applicator device allows a viscous product such as nail varnish to be delivered, for example to a brush.

Abstract: A user-controlled manually-actuatable pumpable dispenser for hydraulically-driven discharge of a stored fluid incorporates a flexible wall or web-like barrier capable of containing a highly volatile fluid while accomodating mechanical and hydraulic dispenser-actuating deformations for initiating or effecting a discharge of the stored fluid. The barrier is formed of a relatively thin wall of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material having a predetermined thickness selected so as to render the barrier sufficiently flexible for accomodating deformations in accordance with which a discharge of fluid from the dispenser is hydraulically effected.

Abstract: A hand-held, manually-actuated dispenser for selective discharge of a stored fluid includes a discharge outlet and a reciprocatable actuating member movable between a first position normally closing the outlet and a second position opening the outlet to enable a discharge of stored fluid. The actuating member carries an inadvertent-actuation locking element which is automatically engageable with an inwardly-displaceable portion of the dispenser housing. When an associated closure cap is seated about the discharge end of the dispenser during periods of nonuse of the device, the housing portion is inwardly-displaced by the cap into cooperative engagement with the locking element whereby movement of the actuating member out of its first, outlet-closing position and, accordingly, any release of stored fluid from within the dispenser interior are prevented.
