Abstract: A cap (1) for a pen or pencil (100) has an opening (2) for the introduction of the pen or pencil (100) and a sealing bead (3) that extends radially inwards and runs around the longitudinal axis (L) of the cap (1) with a closed contour. The cap (1) has at least one first component (K1) with a first flexibility and a second component (K2) with a second flexibility that is greater than the first flexibility. The interior (7) of the cap (1) in the region lying opposite the opening (2) in relation to the sealing bead (3) and in the region of the sealing bead (3) is delimited by the first component (K1). The second component (K2) lies on the outside in the region of the sealing bead (3) along a closed contour on the first component (K1). The adjustability of the cap (1) by a force acting in the radial direction in the region of the sealing bead (3) is greater than in a region lying opposite the opening (2) in relation to the sealing bead (3).

Abstract: According to the invention a cap (1) for a pen or pencil (100) that has an opening (2) for the introduction of the pen or pencil (100) and a sealing bead (3) that extends radially inwards and runs around the longitudinal axis (L) of the cap (1) with a closed contour, the cap (1) having at least one first component (K1) with a first flexibility and a second component (K2) with a second flexibility that is greater than the first flexibility is further developed in that the interior (7) of the cap (1) in the region lying opposite the opening (2) in relation to the sealing bead (3) and in the region of the sealing bead (3) is delimited by the first component (K1), the second component (K2) lies on the outside in the region of the sealing bead (3) along a closed contour on the first component (K1), and the adjustability of the cap (1) by a force acing in the radial direction in the region of the sealing bead (3) is greater than in a region lying opposite the opening (2) in relation to the sealing bead (3) (FIG.

Abstract: An applicator device (10) for storing and applying a substance (20) to be applied, in particular a cosmetic substance, comprising: a container (30) for the substance having a container opening (32), an applicator implement (40), an adjustable stripping element (50) for the applicator implement, which is arranged at least partially in the region of the container opening, and an adjusting device for the action of the stripping means. The adjusting device (70) is formed by an actuating element (60) movable with respect to the stripping element for reversibly changing the stripping element, wherein the position of the actuating element is adjustable with respect to the stripping element by way of the adjusting device, and a crumple zone (34) in the container, by way of which the length of the container can be reversibly changed in the longitudinal direction, wherein the position of the actuating element is adjustable with respect to the stripping element by the change in length.

Abstract: An applicator device for a loose substance, in particular a cosmetic substance such as a cosmetic powder, comprising at least one housing having a storage compartment for the substance and a handle portion on which is disposed an applicator which in the closed condition of the applicator device is arranged in the interior of the housing in the direction of the storage compartment, wherein a wall of the storage compartment, that is towards the applicator, includes passageways for the loose substance, and devices for producing at least one impact on at least one part of the storage compartment so that a part of the loose substance can be loaded on to the applicator through the permeable wall of the storage compartment by metering impacts.

Abstract: A cosmetic container with integrated mixing insert which serve for mixing up or thoroughly mixing an application substance contained in the cosmetic container and/or for preventing or delaying the separation of the contained application substance into the phases thereof. In that respect the mixing insert is of a configuration that an application substance is mixed up in the cosmetic container shortly prior to application by a respective mixing operation in order to guarantee homogeneity of the application substance.

Abstract: An applicator device for applying a material in the form of a lead, in particular for applying a cosmetic material, comprising a holding part, in the interior of which the lead material (KM) to be applied is accommodated and which has an exit opening for the lead material (KM), a rotary part into which the holding part is preferably telescopically fitted and which is axially fixedly but rotatably connected to the holding part at a coupling portion thereof by way of a counterpart coupling portion provided at the rotary part, a rotary mechanism for axial displacement of the lead material (KM).

Abstract: An application device, in particular a makeup device, comprising a first region (30) for storing a fluid, gel-like or pasty product. There is provided a second region (34) for loading an applicator (14) with the cosmetic product, the second region being separated from the first region.

Abstract: A container (10) for substances in powder form, in particular cosmetics in powder form. The container (10) has a closure (40) with at least one closure portion (41) on which there is disposed a stem insert (50) for an applicator element (80), the stem insert being in the interior of the container in the closed condition, sufficiently accurate loading of the applicator element (80) with the substance in powder form can be advantageously guaranteed substantially independently of the filling level of the container (10). The closure (40) of the container (10) has a cavity (60; 61) containing at least one freely movable insert portion (70). By virtue of the closed container (10) being shaken, the freely movable insert portion (70) produces force pulses for removing excess substance or amounts of substance which cling loosely to the applicator element (80). Only the amount of substance necessary for an application remains on the applicator element (80).
