  • Patent number: 7955015
    Abstract: A device for applying a product may include a container configured to contain a product and a case with a compartment configured to receive the container. The case may define an opening and the container may be configured to be moved relative to the case between a first angular position in which product in the container is accessible via the opening, and a second angular position in which product in the container is inaccessible. The device may further include an applicator. In some examples, the applicator may include a first portion configured to contribute to restricting axial movement of the applicator with respect to the case, and a second portion distinct from the first portion, wherein the second portion may be configured to contribute to rotationally coupling the applicator to the container so that movement of the applicator causes movement of the container between the first and second angular positions.

  • Patent number: 7780041
    Abstract: A device for atomizing a fluid product includes a reservoir containing the product and air, with the reservoir including a wall having at least one deformable area. A dip tube communicates selectively or permanently with an atomizing aperture to atomize the product when pressure is exerted on the deformable area. According to a preferred example, the dip tube includes at least one air passage to allow at least part of the air contained in the reservoir to mix with the product conveyed by the dip tube. The air passage is located between the two ends of the dip tube. Further, before a first use of the device and in an at least partially deformed position of the deformable area, the at least one air passage is not immersed in the product, regardless of the position of the reservoir.
