Patent number: 8414209Abstract: A new lip balm, cosmetic, or personal care product dispenser using a non-lethal shotgun shell hull that will accept an industry standard 0.15 ounce twist-base balm dispenser, providing increased turning friction and a tighter fitting cap. A new type of lip balm dispenser that solves the problems associated with old standard tubular balm dispensers. Standard 0.15 ounce lip balm tubes have a knurled twist base that inadvertently rotates in your jacket or pants pocket while people are engaged in outdoor activities such as walking, working, biking, hiking, hunting or fishing. As the tube base twists inside your pocket, the balm itself is wormed outward and mashed into the cap, creating a gooey mess. Also, standard lip balm tube caps come off easily in your pocket which is another big messy problem. The newly invented dispenser prevents a gooey mess in your pocket, purse, jacket or luggage.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2011Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Inventor: Wayne Stanley Forrey

Patent number: 8328447Abstract: When rotating a main body tube and an operation tube in a disclosed container toward a first direction, a moveable screw tube advances a predetermined amount. When further rotating toward the first direction, a screwing part urges a moving body forward. A female thread of the screwing part in the moveable screw tube is radially outwardly expandable via a slit. When the moveable screw tube advances toward the first direction, the outer diameter of the front end part is restricted and expansion thereof is prevented. When further rotating toward the first direction and the screwing part urges the moving body forward, expansion of the front end part and the female thread of the screwing part may be suppressed. Accordingly, the screwing part reliably exerts screw function when the moving body advances.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2009Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Tokiwa CorporationInventor: Yoshikazu Tani

Publication number: 20120288321Abstract: A rod-shaped cosmetic material feeding container is provided with a container front portion and a container rear portion which are relatively rotatable in a delivering direction. A piston body is slidably inserted in a closely attached state to an inner portion of the container front portion. A moving body is arranged in a rear side of the piston body within the container rear portion and is provided in an outer periphery with the male thread connecting by screw to a female thread provided within the container rear portion. The piston body and the moving body are separated so as not to be engaged to each other, thereby a cosmetic material can be directly filled in a melting state from an opening portion in a leading end of the container in a state in which only the piston body is arranged at a predetermined position within the container front portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 27, 2012Publication date: November 15, 2012Applicant: TOKIWA CORPORATIONInventor: Yukikazu ISHIDA

Patent number: 8277136Abstract: A stick-shaped material extruding container for performing forward and backward movements of a stick-shaped material without trouble and prevent detachment of the stick-shaped material by an impact. A movable body having a piston-like extruding portion, closely attached within a filling member, is arranged within a container. The stick-shaped material is loaded in the filling member so as to be closely attached to the filling member and the piston-like extruding portion. When the stick-shaped material is pushed by a forward movement of the piston-like extruding portion to appear from an opening of the container, a sucking action is generated due to decompression between the piston-like extruding portion and the stick-shaped material by a backward movement of the piston-like extruding portion to retract the stick-shaped material, and the decompression prevents falling off of the stick-shaped material from the container.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2012Date of Patent: October 2, 2012Assignee: Tokiwa CorporationInventor: Yoshikazu Tani

Patent number: 8267606Abstract: A device for packaging and dispensing a product includes a dispensing assembly provided with a holding cup for the product, a sheath in which the cup is mounted, a jacket around the sheath and including an outlet orifice, and an outer sleeve around the jacket. Guide devices are provided to bring about, during a rotation of the outer sleeve relative to said jacket, a joint axial movement of said sheath and of the holding cup relative to the jacket, followed by an axial movement of said cup relative to the guide sheath and to the jacket towards a use position of the product. A protective case in which the dispensing assembly is mounted, forms an outer cover for the assembly and includes an actuating member that is able to rotate the outer sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2010Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: L'OrealInventors: William Delbove, Lionel Drugeon
