Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing a fluid comprises a housing and a resilient liner adapted to hold the fluid disposed in the housing. A fluid transfer mechanism is in fluid communication between the liner and an applicator assembly mounted on the housing for dispensing the fluid on the skin of the user. The applicator assembly includes an actuator movable relative to the housing so as to activate the fluid transfer mechanism when the actuator is reciprocated. A fluid delivery element is held in contact against skin of a user for applying the fluid onto the skin. The fluid delivery element is supported on the actuator to be movable together with the actuator by varying contact pressure with the skin. Each movement of the actuator generates continuous negative pressure within the liner for drawing fluid through the fluid transfer mechanism and collapsing the liner.

A tip unit used for a liquid applicator includes a ball house having an opening at its distal end and an introduction channel for application liquid in communication with the ball house, wherein the ball house holds therein at least two balls having a leading ball and an adjacent ball next to the leading ball, the balls being serially lined in an axial direction of the tip unit, the leading ball being partly exposed outside from the opening, and the leading ball being softer than the adjacent ball.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a liquid-material application apparatus with a dual roller structure. The apparatus includes a body having a space for holding contents therein, with a first discharge port being formed on an upper portion of the body to discharge the contents. A roller support is placed on an upper portion of the body, and has on a lower surface thereof a second discharge port which communicates with the first discharge port. A first roller unit is placed above the lower surface of the roller support, and makes contact with the contents which are discharged from the second discharge port. A second roller unit is placed on a side of the first roller unit in such a way as to be put in contact with the first roller unit, and is rotatably coupled to the roller support.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a liquid-material application adapter with a dual roller structure. The adapter includes a roller support having on an upper portion thereof a discharge port for discharging liquid material, a first roller unit rotatably placed above a lower surface of the roller support and making contact with the liquid material discharged through the discharge port, and a second roller unit placed on a side of the first roller unit to be in contact with the first roller unit and rotatably coupled to the roller support. The adapter is constructed to apply liquid material using the second roller unit, thus preventing the liquid material from adhering to an undesired place when the liquid material is applied, and is constructed so that liquid material of the second roller unit is evenly spread out by the first roller unit, thus enabling the liquid material to be evenly applied.

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved roller for painting difficult-to-access rough surfaces, comprising a roller formed by a tube, one end of which is provided with perforations from which the paint is released in order to wet a plush roller disposed at said end. Each end of the plush roller is provided with a pierced cover having a central perforation through which the tube extends and a rough section which provides grip when a cover is being installed or removed. The invention also includes an open half-pipe casing including at least one perforation on each side thereof, through which the tube extends, and a V-channel at the longitudinal edges thereof, into which bristles are inserted. In addition, an extendable/retractable handle is added to the lower part of the base of the tube.

Abstract: A porous applicator for skin sealant has a container of skin sealant held within the applicator. When the skin sealant is released, it flows to a dispensing end of the applicator. The dispensing end has a slot through which the skin sealant is dispensed, however, a roller is rotatably held within a portion of the slot. The roller is porous, in that it has at least one, and desirably a plurality of openings formed through the roller. The skin sealant flows through the slot and through the opening(s) in the roller, so that when the roller is stroked against a patient's skin, the skin sealant is uniformly dispensed on a patient's skin. Pressure applied by a user when applying the skin sealant on a patient's skin does not result in abrasions on the patient's skin from the dispensing end of the applicator.

Abstract: A liquid applicator assembly has a housing with a liquid storage and a dispensing roller fed by a continuos belt in housing, so that liquid may be applied evenly to a surface. This applicator assembly is especially useful for applying lotion to the skin of a person without any lotion or with minimal lotion coming into contact with a person's hands.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus and method for applying a liquid to a surface. One embodiment of the apparatus comprises a liquid roller comprising a roller member comprising a cylindrical body having a first side, a second side, an outer application surface and an inside surface. The inside surface comprises a continuous groove extending about the inside circumference. A follower rides in the groove, with one end of a piston arm is connected to the follower and another end of the connected to a piston enclosed within a cylinder. A liquid supply means is hydraulically connected to the cylinder by liquid conducing means. An axle extends axially through the center of the roller member. Liquid dispersion means disperse the liquid from the cylinder to the outer application surface as the roller member is rotated about the axle. A handle member is attached to the axle.

Abstract: In order to supply a coating to a roller, a coating supplying groove is provided along only one side of a core which is connected to an end of a support so as to act as a shaft of a roller. A coating reservoir between the roller and the core is located to one side of the core. To permit engagement and disengagement between the support and the core, an elastic member is mounted within a coating flowing hole of the core, while an inserting groove and a stopping groove are provided in the inner peripheral surface of the coating flowing hole of the core. To automatically stop and start the supply of coating to the coating roller, and to adjust the flow rate, the number of revolutions of the roller are detected and used to actuate the coating feed mechanism to supply coating at a flow rate corresponding to the number of revolutions and or direction of rotation of the roller.

Abstract: A device for applying a liquid product, in particular paint, includes an applicator with at least one roller, a supply unit with a variable speed, volumetric pump, and a duct connecting the pump to the applicator. The pump is connected to a control unit. A detector detects a speed of the roller and provides a control signal corresponding to the speed to the control unit. The control unit includes a regulator for setting a linear relationship between the speed of the pump and the speed of the roller. The control unit controls the liquid product flow rate supplied by the pump based upon the control signal and the linear relationship set by the regulator.

Abstract: An applicator to apply a medication in liquid form to the skin or fleece of an animal. The applicator his a handle to be gripped by a user to move the applicator over the skin or fleece. Rotatably supported by the handle is a roller which is equipped with a cam track. Received within the cam track is a cam follower which causes reciprocation of a piston within a cylinder. The cylinder and piston co-operate to pump the liquid to a nozzle so that application of the liquid is metered in accordance with rotation of the roller.

Abstract: An angled ball tip for viscous fluid applicators which is adapted to be used with a hand-held reservoir for applying paints and other viscous fluids to cloth, wood, and the like, including a hollow housing and a spring-loaded ball disposed within said hollow housing. Pressure placed on the ball when coming into contact with a cooperating surface causes the ball to recede allowing the viscous fluid to flow around the surface of the ball and deposit on the surface.
