Abstract

1396658 Tampon applicators DR CARL HANN GmbH 23 Feb 1973 [29 Feb 1972] 9126/73 Heading A5R An applicator A for a substantially cylindrical tampon 1, comprises a casing 2 having a tampon-ejecting element 3 slidable in the rear end, wherein a portion of the surface of the casing 2 near the insertion end has at least one flattened portion 2b to restrain axial movement of the tampon. The flattened front portion may consist of two diametrically opposed flattened portions 2b which make an angle of about 5‹ with the axis of the casing 2, or alternatively, may take the form of a flat indentation (4a), Fig. 4, (not shown) or a V-shaped indentation (6), Fig. 6 (not shown). The indentations (4a, 6) are short compared with the length of the casing 2 and have a length greater than their width. The tamponejecting element 3 is made from a tube of the same material and diameter as that from which the casing 2 is made and has a longitudinal groove 3a that renders it resilient. The element 3 engages the inside of the casing 2 with sufficient friction to prevent it from falling out freely. A casing may be formed with both flattened portions and indentations.
