This invention relates to devices for dispensing cosmeti creams or pastes, and is particularly designed to be used for lip rouge paste, eye shadow paste, and such creams as are to be smoothed over the surface to which they are applied.
I am aware that it has been proposed to provide holders or dispensers of this sort so arranged that a portion of the holder maybe employed for smearing the contents on the surfaces to be rouged m or colored, but it is the usual practice ior the user to dip her finger into the cream and apply the cream with the fingers, a practice which is open to many objections, including the dimculty oi picking up on the finger the desired amount,
35 unnecessary waste of the cream, deterioration oi the cream owing to it being exposed to the atmosphcre, discoloration of the fingers, ct cetera.
The aim of the present invention is to provide an improved device by means oi which the contents oi the holder may be dispensed and applied with great nicety and very conveniently in the desired amounts and without any mussiness or soiling oi the fingers. The oril fragrance,
and other desirable qualities, of the cream or paste are maintained regardless of how slowly it is being used; I v V A further aim of the invention is to provide an improved holder or dispenser ha various ieatures of novelty and advantage and which is par- 30 ticularly characterized by its simplicity in con-- ctruction, it comprising a relatively low number oi parts each of which may be economically manuilocured, and these parts may be readily assemole t hither objects 'will be in part obvious, and ln hart pointed out more in detail hereinafter.
the invention accordingly consists in the tea- 1 three oi construction, combination of elements and amangement'oi'parts which will he exemplified in the construction hereinafter set i'orth and the scope oi the application of which will be indicated in the appended claim.
the accompanying dra, wherein is ohown, for illustrative purposes, one embodiment which the present invention may take. Fig. l is a side view'oi' the device, the cover "doing shownjin dotted lines;
Fig. 2 is a central sectional view through the complete dispenser; Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 2; and
' rig. {is a sectional view taken on line 4-4 of 7 Fig.2., 7
Referring to the drawing in detail, 10 designates v a casing which may, of course, be or any suitable shape or construction and which may be formed of any suitable material, such as celluloid, casein,
et cetera. The casing is, icy preference, of cylindrical or tubular shape and has at its upper end a reduced portion or nipple ll internally threaded, no as at 12, and externally threaded, as at 13. The numeral 15 designates a cap or cover internally threaded so as to be screwed onto the complementary thread 13. The casing is adapted to contain the paste or cream, designated generally by so the letter C, and this cream is adapted to be forced from the casing by leading mechanism, which will be hereinafter described more in detail. In describing the invention, it will he assumed, byway of example, that the cream to be dispensed is to m serve as a, rouge ior lips.
In accordance withv the present invention, the device has an applying element in the form of a conical tip, the rounded point of which may be employed to even up and smooth the rouge on W the lips, the tip having at one side of the point and adjacent thereto an opening through which the cream is squeezed out. in the present illustrated disclosure, this applying member has a conical head 16 provided with an externally 3 threaded nipple 17 adapted to be received by the internal thread 12 oi the casing 10. The head it has a generally conical form, and has a slightly rounded point 18. The applying member is hollowed out so as to provide a chamber l9 M which is in direct communication with the chamher 01' the casing l0. Leading from the chamber ill) to the exterior surface of the head is a discharge opening 20, and this opening is located adjacent to, but to one side of, the tip or point m 18. It is of distinct advantage to have the discharge opening located as described with respect to the tip. With this arrangement, a girl may readily apply. the desired amount of rouge to the lips by squeezing out of the opening 20 a small amount of rouge; then, holding the casing at an angle with the opening against thelips, the rouge will be deposited on the lips. Then, the girl can. use the unobstructed point or tip 18 to even up and smooth the rouge without add- 10c ing any more, if not wanted. These operations may be very easily and neatly carried out in a sanitary manner and without soiling the fingers.
. The cream will be dispensed in the desired quantity, thus avoiding waste and inconvenience. Obviously, the size and dimensions of the smoothing point may be varied to suit requirements.
The means which I employ for forcing the cream in the desired amounts through the discharge opening 20 is somewhat similar to conlid structions already proposed for use in devices of this sort, but it has certain features of novelty and advantage which lend simplicity to the arrangement. This means includes thefollower or piston 25, preferably constructed of fabric or the like and comprising a round disk or block provided with an external thread 26 which is complementary to a thread 27 on the interior wall of the casing, and which thread 27 extends substantially throughout the length of the casing. The block has a square opening 28 in which is slidably but closely fitted a similarly shaped or square shaft 29 having at its lower end a square axial stud 30. The numeral 31 designates aknob or operating member of substantially the same diameter as that of the casing 10. This operating member has a central boss 32 upon which seats a metal washer 33. The stud 30 extends through an opening in this washer and is driven into an aperture 3% in the center of the knob 31. This opening 34 is initially round and is of lesser diameter than the greatest cross dimension of the stud 30, as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 3, so that, when the stud is driven into the opening, the edges or corners of the stud would cut into the walls of the opening; thus, a close, tight interlock is formed between the stud and the operating member without the addition of any separate securing means. The casing, adjacentits lower end, has an internal rib 35. About this rib is an annular groove 36. The operating member has an' intermediate portion 37 rotatably fitting in the lower end of the easing below the rib. 35. In order to prevent withdrawal of the operating member from the casing,
a retaining spring 38 is provided. This spring is generally in the form of a U-shaped member made from a length of resilient wire. The arms of this spring chordally extend across the groove or space between the washer 33, and the intermediate portion 37 of the operating member and it is of very effective construction. The parts may be readily assembled together, the use of screws or the like being avoided and, after the operating member has been secured in place by the spring 38, it cannot be displaced. It is, of course, obvious that when it is desired to feed a given amount of rouge through the discharge opening 20, the knob or operating member is slightly turned in the proper direction, thereby turning the follower 25 and, owing to the cooperating threads 26 and 27, this follower is moved axially when thus rotated.
As many changes could be made in the above construction and many apparently widely different embodiments of this invention could be made without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
It is also to be'understood that the language used in the following claim is intended to cover all of the generic and specific features of the invention herein described and all statements of the. scope of the invention which, as a matter of language, might be said to fall therebetween.
What is claimed is:
In a cream dispenser of the character described, a casing having a chamber, a discharge opening at one end of the casing, an internal annular groove adjacent the other end of the casing, and an internal thread; a follower comprising a block having an external thread cooperating with said, internal thread, said follower having a square opening, a square shaft closely and slidably fitting in said square opening and provided with a-square stud at its lower end, an operating member rotatably mounted in the lower end of the casing and having a central boss and an axial opening, a washer on said boss, said stud extending through said washer and being driven into the axial opening in said operating member, and a retaining spring between said washer and operating member and having portions engaging in said annular groove.
