Definitions

  • This invention relates to a manicuring accessory and, more particularly, to an apparatus for applying softening lotions to the cuticle about the nails.
  • an important object of the present invention is the provision of a receptacle for the soaking liquid which may be entirely supported from the finger and will, accordingly, permit manipulation of the hand and its positioning in the most convenient manner.
  • a further and more specific object of the invention is the provision of a receptacle in which the finger tip may be inserted and of the character permitting the disposition therein of a cuticle-treating liquid which has means associated therewith for sealing the receptacle to a finger which is inserted therein so that the finger may be placed in any desired poition Without the spilling of the contents.
  • a further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character which may be economically and practically manufactured and which is readily applied to and removed from the finger.
  • Fig. l is a perspective view of a nail-treating receptacle constructed in accordance with my invention, with the cap removed;
  • Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view therethrough
  • F ig. 3 is a vertical sectional view through a modified construction illustrating the manner of applying the same to the finger.
  • Fig. e is a vertical sectional view through a further modified structure.
  • the numeral generally designates a cap-shaped receptacle having relatively stiff side and bottom walls and a depth such that it may receive the finger to a point well above the upper end of the nail.
  • This receptacle may be conveniently produced in several difierent forms.
  • the receptacle proper has side walls in the form of a tube 11 of pyralin or some similar composition, the lower end of this tube being closed by a cap 12 preferably of similar material to the side walls and having a flange 13 interiorly fitting the side walls 11 and cemented or otherwise sealed thereto.
  • the side and bottom walls are integral and of the same material.
  • the upper end of the receptacle 10 is closed by a flexible, resilient diaphragm lat having a central opening 15 through which the finger may be passed only by stretching of the walls thereof and, accordingly, enlarging the openmg, sothatthis diaphragm will seal against the finger and combine with the finger to effeet a complete closure of the receptacle.
  • this diaphragm is shown as having its edges stretched over a ring 16 to which the diaphragm is cemented.
  • This structure interiorly fits the side wall 11 and is cemented in position therein.
  • the upper end of the side wallll is preferably exteriorly threaded, as indi cated at 17, for the reception of a cap 18.
  • a washer or gasket 19 Arranged interiorly of this cap is a washer or gasket 19 which, as the cap is screwed into position, comes into sealing engagement with the diaphragm and the upper ends of the receptacle walls to prevent leakage of fluid contained therein.
  • the diaphragm is shown so constructed that it seals to the upper ends of the receptacle walls through its own resiliency.
  • the diaphragm indicated at 14* has both a central opening15 and the outer marginal edg'e'thereof defined by thickened portions 20, the marginal thickened portion being adapted for springing over the flared upper edges 21 of the side walls of the receptacle so that the diaphragm properly effects the seal therewith.
  • Fig. 4 I have illustrated a modification wherein the receptacle proper and the diaphragm are integrally formed.
  • the side and bottom walls of the receptacle are molded from relatively heavy and, accordingly, stiff rubber and the upper wall fo t-ms a thin resilient extension of the side walls and is formed with the central opening for the passage of the finger.
  • the receptacle In use of the apparatus, the receptacle is substantially filled with the treating fluid and the finger inserted throughthe opening 15, so that it is immersed in this fluid, as shown in Fig 3. Since the marginal edges of the opening 15 have sealingengagement with the finger, it will be obvious that the hand or the finger being treated may be shifted to any desired position without spilling of the fluid and without interrupting the treating operation. Treatment of one'finger may be carried on as the nail of the adjacent finger is being manipulated and, accordingly, 7 a considerable saving of time effected.
  • a receptacle for the tip of the finger adapted to receive a treating fluid and having in a wall thereof an opening defined by a flexible resilient margin having engage ment with the inserted finger perfecting the seal of the receptacle.
  • a receptacle adapted to recelve a finger tip and contain a treating fluid for the nail thereof, and means for sealing the receptacle to the'finger to prevent the escape of fluid therefrom.
  • a receptacle for a treating fluid having relatively stiff side and bottom walls, and an upper wall having an opening through which a finger may be inserted into the receptacle formed therein and defined by a flexible resilient margin adapted to have sealing engagement with the finger.
  • a manicuring implement of the character describedya receptacle having relatively stiff side and bottom walls, a resilient diaphragm closing the mouth of the receptacle and provided with an opening of less size than the finger, and a cap for the receptacle having means coming into sealing engagementwith the walls of the receptacle and the diaphragm to prevent the escape of fluid from the receptacle.
  • a receptacle adapted to reby a flexible iesilient inarginliaving engagementwiththe inserted finger perfectingthe.
