Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to packages for lathering a liquid personal care product.
  • the shape of the applicator is not cylindrical, it may be hard for the user to view the orientation of the applicator, particularly when the applicator contains foamed product and is placed against the skin. Accordingly, there is a need to inform users of the orientation of the applicator as they hold it close to the skin.
  • FIG. 7 is a side view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 12 is a horizontal cross-sectional, perspective view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, taken along the line V-V.
  • FIGS. 14a-f are examples of cross-sectional shapes the package may comprise.
  • FIGS. 1 to 5 A first exemplary package 100 is shown in FIGS. 1 to 5.
  • FIG.l illustrates the top portion of package 100, comprising a body 102, and an applicator 124.
  • Body 102 is able to be grasped with a user's hand; it comprises a horizontal plane defining a first cross-sectional shape 104.
  • Cross-sectional shape 104 comprises a major dimension 106 oriented along a first axis and a minor dimension 108 oriented along a second axis.
  • Body 102 may be provided in a variety of forms or shapes and may be made of various materials. Examples of suitable plastic materials include high density polyethylene (“HDPE”), low density polyethylene (“LDPE”), polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”), polypropylene (“PP”), polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, nylon, and fluorinated ethylene propylene.
  • Body 102 may be made via a number of processes known in the art, such as blow molding, injection molding, and the like. Body 102 may be comprised of transparent, translucent, or opaque materials, or it may be comprised of a combination of materials with these properties.
  • body 102 is opaque and made of thermoplastic resin via an extrusion blow molding process.
  • body 102 may be transparent to show unique color, texture, pattern, or inclusions of a liquid personal care product; for example, moisturizing beads or white color to signify suitable for use on sensitive skin.
  • Cross-sectional shapes 104, 128 of body 102 and applicator 124, respectively, may take different forms.
  • first cross-sectional shape 104 and second cross-sectional shape 128 may be oblong circles, squares, or triangles; further exemplary shapes include teardrop and pear.
  • the shapes 104, 128 may substantially match or not match.
  • cross-sectional shape 104 may have an oval shape while cross-sectional shape 128 may have a teardrop shape.
  • Cross-sectional shapes 104, 128 may be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates cross-sectional shape 104 and cross-sectional shape 128 as symmetrical, oblong circles.
  • package 100 may comprise more than two distinct cross- sectional shapes.
  • the piston or similar member may extend partially within body 102 to dispense a liquid personal care product.
  • a further example of displacement member 166 is a trigger, as shown in FIGS. 6-12 and discussed more fully below.
  • a second exemplary package 200 is shown in FIGS. 6 to 13.
  • Package 200 has many of the same features as package 100; most features are numbered consistently between the two, with a difference in the hundreds numeral, for example, body 102 of package 100 vs. body 202 of package 200. The descriptions, dimensions, and variations of the features of package 100 may be applied to the corresponding features of package 200 discussed below, unless otherwise noted.
  • body 202 is opaque and made of thermoplastic resin via an extrusion blow molding process.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 depict package 200 comprising a body 202 and an applicator 224.
  • Body 202 of package 200 comprises a horizontal plane defining a first cross-sectional shape 204.
  • First cross-sectional shape 204 comprises a major dimension 206 oriented along a first axis, and a minor dimension 208 oriented along a second axis, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • Applicator 224 comprises a skin-contacting portion 226, wherein skin-contacting portion 226 comprises a horizontal plane defining a second cross-sectional shape 228.
  • Second cross-sectional shape 228 comprises a major dimension 230 oriented along a first axis and a minor dimension 232 oriented along a second axis, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • FIG. 9 illustrates body 202 having an outlet 214 that is in fluid communication with applicator 224.
  • Upper body 210 comprises a notch 212, where an optional over-cap 276 snaps on.
  • Lower body 216 comprises a body cavity 218, wherein a flexible bag 222 fillable with a liquid personal care product fits within body cavity 218.
  • FIG. 9 also illustrates a dispensing conduit 246, a flow-restricting member 260, a displacement member 266, and optional valve 286 of package 200.
  • FIGS. 9 and 13 best show an optional over cap 276 that is removeably attached over applicator 224.
  • Over cap 276 comprises an outer ring 278 to compress safety cap 258 and an inner ring 280 to contain safety cap 258.
  • a ledge 282 on over cap 276, visible in FIG. 9, allows over cap 276 to snap into notch 212 of body 202.
  • Over cap 276 may also comprise a flat surface 284, allowing package 200 to be inverted, thus resting on flat surface 284 when not in use.
