  • Patent number: 9943658
    Abstract: Provided is an applicator device for facilitating the application of liquid adhesive onto the edge of a continued positive air pressure (CPAP) mask. The device has a central shaft with a hollow interior. One of the central shaft removably secures to a storage container of skin safe adhesive. The opposing end includes two arcuate guide arms extending upwardly to form a concave inner surface adapted to accept the edge of a CPAP mask. Within the central shaft and protruding outward from the upper opening is a liquid adhesive roller ball. The ball is the primary application surface for conveying adhesive onto the CPAP mask edge. In use the applicator is secured to the opening of an adhesive storage container and the assembly is then inverted onto the edge of a CPAP mask to apply liquid adhesive thereto, improving the seal between the mask edge and a user's face when deployed.
