Application, February 4, 1948, Serial No. 6,215
1 g This invention relates to a massaging element adapted to supply a cap for a bottle and is particularly adapted to feed the fluid while the scalp is being massaged.
In the application of remedies for the treatment of the skin, and particularly in treatment of the scalp, it is necessary that the medication be brought directly into contact with the skin surface. When it is applied as is usually done, the hair receives most of the liquid, and as a result the purpose to be accomplished fails. In addition, it is beneficial to massage the skin or scalp, in order to properly treat diseased parts.
Particularly in the case of women, they will frequently refrain from using medication because of the saturating action employed in previous methods, thereby causing the hair to straighten, and otherwise disturb their hair do.
An object of the invention is to provide a device whereby the scalp or other skin areas may be massaged with a minimum amount of disturbance.
A further object of the invention is to massage a scalp in order to relieve any diseased parts.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a device whereby the liquid feed is combined with a massaging action to most efficiently obtain the desired purpose.
And a still further object of the invention is to provide a device whereby the feed means is confined into a restricted area until it is ready for the massaging action.
The invention, accordingly, comprises the features of construction, combinations of elements and arrangements of parts, which are exemplified in the description hereinafter in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawings, in which is illustrated one of the various possible embodiments of the invention:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device of the invention positioned within a bottle;
Figure 2 is a transverse vertical sectional view of the device of Figure 1, shown in operative position;
Figure 3 is a vertical transverse view of the device Within a bottle and showing the device when it is not in use; and
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the device of Figure 1.
Referring to the figures, a bottle indicated at l including the usual neckportion I2 and terminating in the usual annular rim I4, retains a 2 Claims. (Cl. 128 65) 2 stopper l6, which may be of rubber, or of any similar hard and flexible material. Stopper l6 includes an annular disk [8 and an integrally formed depending annular skirt 20. Skirt 2!) is' of lesser diameter than annular surface I 8 for sliding engagement within the neck of bottle Ill, and thus forms a shoulder 22 for seating relation with rim I4. Skirt 20 is counterbored along its axis at 24, and terminates at the lower end of annular disk l8. Disk H3, in turn, is of substantial depth and has a reduced bore or aperture 26 to connect a bore 24 in the skirt and a bore 28 in the disk l8. The bore 28 is of equal diameter to the bore 24. As may best be seen in Figure 2, reduced bore or aperture 26 is V-shaped with the wide end adjacent bore 28.
Integral with the upper surface of annular disli l8, are a number of massaging elements or projections 30. A stopper is provided having a spherical head 32 seating in the bore 26 and a longitudinal rod section 34 capable of passing through aperture 26 in order to render the device inoperative when not in use.
The method of use for the device will now readily be apparent. Stopper I6 is inserted in the proper size bottle I0, so that skirt 20 slidably engages the inner surface of neck l2, and shoulder 22 is received on rim I4 in order to prevent any further downward movement. The stopper having the spherical head 32 is then removed, and the device is inverted in the manner shown in Figure 2. The skirt i8 is then pressed downwardly upon the scalp or skin to be treated, thus causing the fluid which has already filled annular passage 24, to pass through aperture 26 and fill the bore 28. The fluid is thus retained within the bore 28 until projections 33 serve to spread the medicament in the localized area desired. Thus, the object of the invention is achieved, in that the diseased area is thoroughly saturated and treated beneficially, without in any way saturating the hair of the patient, or in any other manner disturbing the arrangement thereof. When the device is no longer in use, stopper 32 is again inserted into aperture 26, and the bottle is stored away until again needed. Obviously, the same stopper may be withdrawn from the bottle and applied to any other medication.
It is to be noted that there is a continuous supply of fluid since aperture 26 is of such dimensions that the spreading action of annular surface l8, induced by pressure of the device on the scalp, is not sufficient to close the aperture.
From the above, it will be seen that the several objects of the invention are attained and other 3 advantageous results achieved. As many modifications of the embodiment above illustrated might be made without departing from the spirit or scope ,of the present invention, as it is intended that the above description and accompanying drawings and claims shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having described the invention, what i claimed as new is:
l. A massaging "device comprising an annular disk of resilient material having massaging elements on one side and a skirt on the other side to fit Within the neck of a bottle, said skirt hav-' ing a longitudinal bore, said diskshaving' a coaxial bore communicating with said bore in the skirt, said coaxial bore having areducedbore portion adjacent the bore in the skirt, and: said reduced bore portion being tapered.
2. A massaging device comprising an annular disk of resilient material-,ghaving massaging elements-,onvonei-side and-1a skirt onthe'other'side' 4 said coaxial bore having a reduced bore portion adjacent the bore in the skirt, and said reduced bore portion being tapered to a larger dimension at the end adjacent the massaging elements.
