H, B. LERMER July 18, 1933.
APPLICATOR Filed Oct. 19, 1932 ATTORNEY Patented July 18, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HERMAN B. LERMER, 0F NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR T0 HYGIENIC TUBE AND CONTAINER COMPANY, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, A CORPORATION OF .NEW
JERSEY APPLICATOR Application filed October 19, 1932. Serial N0. 638,553.
This invention relates to applicators used in connection with collapsible tubes and containers such as are extensively used for merchandising pastes, cosmetics, medicaments and jellies for feminine h giene. The containers are made of yiel ing materials, so that the contained substances may be gradually forced out by pressing the sides of the container together.
The containers are further provided with a contracted neck adapted to receive the ordinary cap or closure, and also adapted to receive an applicator, one end of which is provided with any desired or convenient means, such as screw threads, for engagement with the neck of the container, which is similarily provided with any desired or convenient cooperating means, such as screw threads or the like. The applicators heretofore have been made of hard rubber, glass or the like.
The object of this invention is to substitute for the hard rubber, glass or other applicator, an unbreakable, flexible and transparent applicator which can be readily cleaned in hot water, and one which owing to its transparency, enables the user to positively see the substance in the container pass out through the applicator pipe.
These and other advantageous objects, which will later appear, are accomplished by the simple and practical combination of parts as hereinafter described, and indicated in the accompanying drawing, forming part hereof, and in which:
Fig. 1 represents a front view of a container having secured thereto an applicator embodying the invention,
Fig. 2 represents a side view of the container having the applicator removed therefrom, and
Fig. 3 represents a similar view but shows the applicator with its parts detached.
In the drawing, is shown a container 1 made of a yieldable material such as a cellulose compound-for example, pyroxylin or cellulose acetate or any of the synthetic resinous compounds such as for instance, bakelite, phenol formaldehyde, urea formaldehyde, or other material.
The contained substance may be gradually forced out by pressing the sides of the c011- tainer together. As previously stated, the containers are made transparent, opaque and in various colors, and are provided with a contracted neck 2 to which an ordinary cap or closure 3 is removably secured in any desired or convenient manner. The applicator 4 is provided with a bulbous member 5 at one end, and, at the other end, is provided with a member 6 by means of which the applicator can be removably secured to the container; either or both of the members 5 and 6 may be formed integral with the applicator 4: or may be secured thereto in any desired or convenient manner.
The applicator tube 7 is made of a transparent cellulose compound or similar material, which, in the first place, is flexible and yieldable, will not break during handling or when washed in hot water, and is transparent so that the user can positively see the substance as it passes through the applicator tube.
The bulbous member 5 at the one end of the applicator tube 7 and the member 6 at the other end of the applicator tube are made of the same material but preferably colored, and owing to the fact thatthe parts are made of a yieldable material, the possibility of breaking any of the parts, particularly chipping the bulbous end, is reduced to a minimum. The applicator is light in weight and practically indestructible, and owing to the different colors employed in neat and attractive in appearance.
The advantage of this invention resides in the fact that, because of its flexibility, the applicator'tube, when injected into the organ, tends to follow the contour 0f the organ, thereby enabling the placing of elly medicament at place where application is desired.
The foregoing disclosure is to be regarded as descriptive and illustrative only, and not as restrictive or limitative of the inventlon, of which obviously an embodiment may be constructed including many modifications without departing from the general scope collapsible container, whereby pressure upon the container will cause the substance in the,
container to tor tube.
2. A medicament applicator comprising a transparent and flexible tube having a bulbous member at one end and an engaging member at the other end for releasably connecting the tube to a medicament container.
