- the applicator comprises a spatula, which can be perforated or not.
- the handle for its part, has for example a longitudinal shape and comprises two opposite end zones equipped respectively with the file and the applicator.
- the device further comprises a pad of material impregnated with a cleaning product of the surface to be treated.
- this cleaning product is a product capable of dissolving a solidified treatment product applied to the treatment surface during a previous treatment.
- the pad is provided on a first face of the handle opposite to a second face carrying the file.
- the pad may be held by gluing or by hook and loop fastening means or the like.
- the handle may be made of plastic, in particular polycarbonate, or glass.
- the device may further comprise means for facilitating the observance of the treatment product.
- the invention also relates, in another aspect, the use of a device as defined above for the treatment of a toenail or hand.
- the invention further relates, according to a third aspect, to a kit for treating a surface to be treated, which comprises a handle, a first set of at least one file intended to file the surface to be treated, and a second set at least one applicator for taking a quantity of treatment product from the surface and applying it against said surface, at least one of said first and second sets constituting a set of disposable elements intended to be fixed removably on the handle.
- FIG. 1 is a top view of a device for applying a product according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a detailed view of the device of FIG. 1, showing the removable attachment means of the file on the handle;
- FIG. 3 is a detailed view of the device of Figure 1, showing the removable fastening means of the applicator on the sleeve;
- FIGS. 4 and 5 are schematic views of the profile of the applicator of Figure 1, showing the operating mode of the detachable fastening means of the applicator on the handle;
- FIG. 10 and 1 1 illustrate a particular embodiment of the application device according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a top view of a device for applying a treatment product on a surface to be treated, designated by the general reference 1.
- the device 1 is for the treatment of mycosis of the toenails or hand by means of a film-forming solution type Loceryl ®.
- the device 1 essentially comprises: a handle 2 made in the form of a preferably ergonomic longitudinal bar; an applicator 3 made in the form of a perforated spatula provided at one of the ends 4 handle 2; and a file 5 provided at the other end 6 of the handle 2, opposite to the first end 4.
- the file 5 is intended, during treatment, to remove the nail thicknesses and remove some of the solidified product on the nail.
- the applicator 3 meanwhile, is intended to take a quantity of product and apply it to a nail previously filed.
- the handle 2 is intended to be entered manually by a user to perform these two treatments. It therefore has dimensions sufficient to allow the device to be easily handled, even on an elderly person or with reduced mobility. It will include in this regard a length of between 60 mm and 180 mm, preferably between 90 and 150 mm.
- Its width is also sufficient to allow the device to be easily manipulated. It will for example be between 10 mm and 30 mm, and preferably between 15 and 25 mm.
- the applicator 3 which must be inserted into a bottle containing the film-forming solution to be applied, is carried by a narrowed end 4 so that the spatula can be fully inserted to the bottom of the bottle.
- the spatula and handle will therefore be made from a material chemically compatible with the solution to be applied, for example plastic or glass, in particular a polycarbonate.
- the spatula and the file can be either integrated with the handle or mounted on the handle with removable fastening means.
- the file it can be reported by gluing, for example by using a repositionable adhesive suitable for the intended use.
- the file is here made from an abrasive sheet whose corners are engaged under notches or slots, such as 7, here four in number , provided in the handle to maintain the file.
- lateral recesses such as 8, on each side of the file, between two notches 7 side, in order to be able to grasp the file and release manually notches.
- the applicator has a perforated bar shape. Referring to Figure 3, it has a first end 9 provided with perforations to facilitate the application of the product and an opposite end 10 delimiting a shank snapped into an axial housing 1 1 provided at the end 4 of the handle 2.
- the peripheral wall of the housing 1 1 and the tail 10 comprise one or more beads and the other one or more corresponding housing, in which is engages a bead.
- the tail 10 of the spatula 3 comprises lateral housings 12, here two in number, while the wall of the housing 1 1 comprises a peripheral bead 13.
- the latching means of the spatula in the handle are adapted to maintain the spatula while allowing its release under the action of a low effort.
- the applicator 3 and the file 5 are constituted by removable and disposable elements which must be replaced after each use.
- the application device is then in the form of a kit comprising a handle, a first set of disposable files, and a second set of disposable spatulas.
