Abstract

ABSTRACT
The plug is intended to be coupled to a container which holds an enamel for nails or the like. The application may be effected by actuating sideways a push-button (15) or by pressing axially an annular push-button (21). By acting on the push-button (15, 21) a canula (9) is displaced axially and acts upon the plunger of the pumping device (4) which is part or is mounted on the mouth of the container holding the enamel. When releasing the push-button, the product is ejected to the bristels (13) of a brush-type applicator which emerges from a trunco-conical nozzle (19) integral with the body.
The trunco-conical nozzle (19) is sealingly closed by means of a thread cap (20) and carries inside an obturating bell which is adapted to the conical periphery of the nozzle and which is spring-biased (30).

1 ENAMEL APPLICATOR AND ~OSER PLUG

THE OBJEC? OF THE INVENTIO~

The Present invetion, as it is indicated in the title of the this descriPtion~ relates to an enamel applicator and doser plug which is intented to be coupled to a container which holds enamel for nails or the like ~eing said Plus in turn Provided with a caP which sealinglY closes in order to impede that the bristles of a product applicator brush located inside the same be taken out.

The apPlication of the enamel is carried out by means of a pumping element which i5 activated from outside bY means of a Push-button~

The aPplication of the product bY the user is thus very easY~ since it is sufficient to take off the caP
~o and utili~e the painting brush after pumping a dose of enamel, the housing being used a5 a sriP~

BA~KG~OUND5 OF THE INVENTION

In order to paint the nails a conventional container is used the caP of which includes the apPlicator brush which is inserted in the bulk of the enamel.
: ' ~:
The same aPplicant of the present invention has also registered the patent of invention number P-~100~12 related to an applicator device of enamel for nails in which the existence of a container reservoir of enamel is contemplated as weil as a sophisticated device couPled to the neck and covered bY means of an obturatinq housins bY
a lid inside of which there was a brush for automatic 2 t l '1 ~

1 application of enamel when a dose of product contained in the housing would reach the bristle~ thereof, said application being carried out during the movement of finger which is introduced through the oPpnins of the housin~, obtaining as much as two laYers of enamel during the Painting of nail both when introducing and when taking out the finger.

I~Escp~Ipr~ L OF THE ~NVENTIQN
1 0 ` : ' In general terms, the enamel applicator and doser plug, which constitutes the object of the invention, is fastened to the mouth of the enamel container eith~r by means of threading, or by méans of a simple press-fit action, permitting also the axial relative displacement between the two bodies, and existing means which impede the accidental separatic,n of the assembly.

The pumping element is determined by a ~o cylindrical sleeve having a smooth initial Portion and another posterior Portion affected bY a PluralitY of slots or windows which Permit the entrance of the product contained inside the case or container. A piston is aided by a rear spring, in such a manner that bY being forced to displacement against the action of the spring, by means of a canula, ~oing out of the smooth portion of the sleeve and being placed in the slot C3rrYing part, when returing to the initial Po~ition a dose is taken throu~h the axial orifice of the canula.
The PumPing element and the mouth of the container are located inside a casing or housing of the doser plu~, the free end of which having an external threading for connection to a trunco-conical no~le from which the applicator brush of the product is emergedJ

_ 3 _ ~ 7 8 ~

1 havins its bristel5 soaked in enamel, by acting upon the push-button.

The Product applicator brush is in turn covered by the plug itself, or the cap, screwed over the no2~le, thus avoiding the drying of the Product which has soaked the bristles of the applicator brush.

An obturating element is Provided in order to aid the function of sealingly closing the .~pplicator brush, said element being located inside the cap and can be axially displaced due to the assistance of an intermediate spring. said spring makes the obturator displace towards outside, the exit of which being limited by a cap in such a manner that the mouth of the same is applied a~ainst the conical surface of the no~le.

on the other hand, the applicator brush i5 connected to the end of a canula through which, by the ~o movement of the push-button, the product to be applied f l ows, In order to facilitate the understandins of the characteristics of the invention and forming an integral part of this description, sheets of drawings are attached in the figures of which, with illustrative and not limitati~e character the following is rePresented:

Figure 3.- I~ a front view of an enamel applicator and doser Plus in a second form of embodiment, closin~ the mouth of a container of the producti the pushing element for the action of the PumPing device being of annular form wrapping around the casin~, bein~ able to be axial 1Y di~Placed with respect to the same, or to be an extension of the same, being simultaneouslY disPlaced with the no2~le and the caP~
Figure 4.- Is a front exPloded view of a.n enamel aPplicator and doser Plug~ in a third form of embodiment in which the container casing is cYlindrical with lar8e l~ngth in order to absorb in the interior of the same the comPlete body of the container of enamel, the latter being cylindrical a~ well having a ~ligh~ly smaller diameter.

DE5CRIPTION OF A P~EFE~ED FORM OF EMBODkMENT
~ eferring to the numerals adapted in the fisuresr it can be observed that the enamel aPPlicator and doser Plug~ propo~ed by the invention, is constituted in a first form of embodiment as indicated in fi~ures 1 and ~, by a cylindrical casing 1 which is connected to the threaded neck ~ of the enamel container 3. The pumping device ~ is fastened to the neck 2 of the container in such a manner that it, body is immersed in the bulk of the product. It is determin~d bY a ~leeve 5 initiallY ~mooth and in the remaining Part covered bY a PluralitY of a.xial ~ -5- 2~1~78~

1 slots 6, in the interior of which is piston can be displaced ~not ~hwon in the figures) aided bY a spring i which maintains the spring pushed towards the enlar~ed toP
7 of the sleeve 5.
Through the axial orifice 8 of the pumping element 4, canula ~ is partially inserted which restson the piston. The other end of the canula 9 is formed as a housing 10 from which a small rigid conduit 11 i~ axiallY
emerged which is in turn telescopically inserted in the prolonging tube 1~ which emerges from the other end of the casing and i5 connected to the base of the bristles 13 of the applicator brush of the product.

The casing 1 is laterally provided with a window 14 through which the push-button 15 for activating the pumping device 4 goes out. The Push-button 15 has a "U" ~haped cross-section and the sides thereof corresponding to the branches are of generallY triangular LO 5hape having a very acute vertex which Presents a pair of arc-shaped pins 16 which define the means for rotation and connection to an interior axis of the casing not shown in the figures. The end opposite to said vertex are arc-shaped in order to de~ine a cam curve which during it, L5 angular movement displaces the canula ~ by intermediate use of ths Pushing piece 17, the Pushing being favoured due to a front surface of the Pushins piece of a convexlY
curved shape and where a Passage orifice of the tube 1 L is presented as it can be observed in figure L .
rhe fr~s end of the casing 1 is provided with an exterior threading for the connection of the conical no~le 1~ thruogh the axial orifice of which the bristles 13 of the product applicatior brush are emerged as shown in fisure l.

., -6- 2~7~ ~

1 The conical no221e 19, a5 well ass the bristles 13 that emerge therefrom are totally closed by a cap 20.
This cap ~0 has an interior threading in order to connect with the threadsof the trunco-conical noz21e 19 and inside of the same there is also another obturating cap aided by a ~Pring which shall bs observed hereinbelow in relation to fi~ure 4.

with this disposition, by pressing with finger over the lateral push-button 15, the Pushing piece 17 displaces the canula 9 and thus the Pumping device 4 is loaded with a dose of the product to be ejected, 50 that when the action over the said Push-button 15 is ceased, the piston of the Pumpins device pushes the Product through the canula 9, the rigid conduit 11 and tube 12 in order to soak the bristles 1~ 50 that the user can distribute the enamel on the nails.

Referring now specially to figure 3, an example ~o Of embodiment can be observed in which the activating push-button of the pumping device 4 has annular ~hape and is marked with numeral ~1. The annular push-button .1, bY
being displaced in the direction shown by the arrow can axially displace the canula 9 50 that after said displacement and as a conse~uence of the existence of the spring which aids the Piston of the pumping device 4, the dose of Product is ejected to the bristles 13. In thi~
case, the no~le 19 and the caP ~0 are not displaced since the disPlacement is done by the annular push-button It also can be assumed that the annular push-button 21 is attached to a casing of small len~th which is connected to the neck of a container .~ of an axially movable form, i.e. a relative axial di~Placement between said casing (and thus the annular push-button ,1 ` 211~78~ ~

1 attached thereto) and the container 22 can be permitted, with elements existing in order to avoid the accidental separation of said elements. By being threaded the cap 20 to the no2-1e 19, the axial pressure in order to eject a dose of product to the bristle~ 13 can be exerted directlY
on the cap 20. 8y later unscrewing the caP 20, the bristles 1~ are alreadY soaked bY the product and ready for carrYing out their painting function.
: ' In figure 4 an example of embodiment can be observed which is functionallY identical to the one shown in figure 3, but as to its external form it is appreciablY
changed since a cylindrical container 23 havin~ a small diameter is used which is practically introduced in a casin~ 24 of large length and a slightly larger diameter.
The casing 24i includes, in the lower part, a bevelled portion 25 which allows the visibility of the lower part of the cylidrical container 23.

In figure 4 it can be observed from the broken lines that the container 23 is already carrYing the pumping device fixed to the mouth of the same, the whole assembly being inserted in the interior of the casing 24, and preventing its involuntarY extraction due to the existence of coniugated ribs fitting to each other, such as those referenced with numeral 26 in said fi~ure 4. In the Position ihown in figure 4 the container 23 occupies the lower-most Position and the canula ~ can remain inserted in the PumPing device making contact with the piston in the Position of mounting the assemblY~ The no2~1e 1~ re~ts over the external shoulder 27 of the cylindrical casing 2~ bY screwing on to the neck 2~. This position of the container 23 i~ maintaine~ stable due the existence of the spring which helps the piston of the Pumpins device 4.

2 1~ 7 8 9 ~ 9 1I n thi~ condition, by carr~ing out a relative axial di~placement between th~ casing .4 and the container 23, which takes Place against the action of the latter mentioned spring, the pumping device is reloaded and later the bri~tles 13 of the brush are soaked when the original position is reached. The said axial di3placement is made pos3ible because of the existence of the bevelled Portion ~5 of the casing 24 since by holding the casing 24 by one hand, the end of the container 23 can be activated bY
10thumb. A150 with said bevelled portion 25 the involuntary exit of the product can be avoided when the whole a55emblY
is stored, since the free edge of said casing 24 is practically levelled with the bottom of the container, said casing resisting against compression overforcings exerted thereon. In said figure 6 and more particularlj~ in the cross-sectioned details which the cap 20 presents the inside of the same can be seen and its structure can be commented as indicated hereinabove. Inside ofthe same the obturator .9 is located in a displaceable manner aided by -o the spring 30 which maintain~ it pushed towards the emergency Po~ition coinciding with the illustration of figure 4. when it is intended to screw the cap 20 on the noz21e 19, the adjustment of the mouth of the obturator 2~
on the trunco-conical portion, and also overpassin~ the latter, of the no~le 1~ is initially carried out, advancing thereafter only the cap 20 during the rotating, thus the pressure of the spring ~0 maintains sealingly closed the chamber occupied by bristles 13. BY unwinding the cap 20, it bounces loose due to the action of the ,pring ~0 and then it i~ necessary to exert a sli~ht axial force in order to separate the assemblY.
