Definitions

  • This invention generally relates to an applicator for applying lotion, or more specifically a measured volume of lotion, to a treatment surface of a user.
  • the applicator is suitable for applying a topical or transdermal lotion and it has a particular application in applying a medicated lotion to the axilla area of the body of the user. It will be convenient to hereinafter describe the invention with reference to this particular application, however it is to be appreciated that the applicator may be suitable for applying lotion to other areas of the body.
  • Topical lotions such as sunscreens or medicated liquids have previously been provided in squeezable containers or in containers with a finger operated pump whereby a portion of the lotion is deposited on the treatment surface or on a free hand for subsequent transfer to the treatment surface. In either case the lotion is spread over the treatment surface with the free hand, leaving a residual lotion on the free hand. It is not always convenient for the free hand to be left with residual lotion. This is particularly the case where the lotion is a medicated lotion intended to have a therapeutic effect at a certain dose.
  • Devices have been designed to deposit topical lotions on the skin, and in particular the axilla area of the skin without requiring spreading or contact with the free hand.
  • One such device is a roll-a-ball type system often used for applying anti-perspirants to the axilla area of the body.
  • the roll-a-ball is brought into contact with a bulk storage of the lotion which is transferred to the treatment surface of the user by rolling the ball across the treatment surface.
  • This form of applicator is not entirely satisfactory for medicated lotions where the lotion is to be applied at an accurate measured volume. It would be preferable to provide an applicator capable of applying a measured volume of lotion to a treatment site while minimising the likelihood of the lotion coming into contact with areas of the skin other than the preferred treatment site. It would be advantageous for the applicator to be capable of applying the volume of lotion in a convenient manner with minimum residual volume, waste and mess.
  • an applicator for applying to a treatment surface a measured volume of lotion dispensed from a dispensing device including:
  • a receptacle having an outer member and an inner member which define a collapsible reservoir space when the inner member is spaced from the outer member, the receptacle including a passageway connecting the reservoir space to a spreading surface located on the receptacle, wherein in use the reservoir space receives the measured volume of lotion dispensed from the dispensing device, the receptacle is brought into engagement with the treatment surface so as to collapse the reservoir space to cause evacuation of the lotion from the reservoir space through the passageway to the spreading surface for application to the treatment surface.
  • an outer surface of the outer member forms at least part of the spreading surface.
  • the passageway is formed through the outer member.
  • the outer member moves relative to the inner member to collapse the reservoir space.
  • This may be achieved in a number of ways.
  • One preferred way is for the outer member to be formed from a deformable material so as to collapse under the pressure produced by engaging the treatment surface.
  • the inner member may also be formed from a defomnable material. It is preferred that the deformable material be resiliently deformable so that once the lotion has been applied the member will resume its original shape to reform the reservoir space.
  • the inner and outer members may be rigid in which case the outer member is movable relative to the inner member to collapse the reservoir space. In this case it is preferred that biasing means be included to urge the outer member to return to its original position.
  • the dispensing device include a pump for dispensing the measured volume of lotion from a container containing a bulk volume of the lotion.
  • the applicator include an actuator for operating the pump.
  • actuator includes a collar that is rotated relative to the dispensing device to operate the pump. It is preferred that rotation of the collar for operation of the pump be through 180 degrees, however this is not essential. It is preferred that the collar engage a cam associated with a head of the pump so that rotation of the collar causes axial movement of the head to dispense the metered volume of lotion.
  • the spreading surface is preferably slightly rounded. It is more preferred that the spreading surface is substantially convex. A spreading surface configured in this way has been found to facilitate the spreading of lotion over the treatment surface particularly where the treatment surface is the axilla area of the body.
  • the passageway is preferably configured to minimise lotion retention within the reservoir space during transfer of the lotion from the reservoir space to the treatment surface. This may be achieved in any suitable manner.
  • the passageway may include a plurality of apertures each aperture preferably constricts from its entry opening adjacent the reservoir space to an exit opening adjacent the spreading surface. It has been found that this facilitates control of the flow of the lotion.
  • the passageway is preferably configured to retain the lotion within the reservoir space by surface tension of the lotion. This may be achieved in any suitable manner however it is preferred that the dimensions of the passageway are determined having regard to the viscosity of the lotion so as to retain the lotion in the aperture and the reservoir space using the surface tension of the lotion.
  • the applicator preferably includes a cap formed with a plurality of plugs that, when the cap is in a closed position adjacent the spreading surface, occlude each of the apertures.
  • each plug When the cap is in the closed position each plug preferably extends into the reservoir space, a free end of each plug providing a surface over which the film of residual lotion can be formed. This allows for the residual lotion formed over the free ends of the plugs to be removed from the reservoir space when the cap is moved away from its closed position so as not to form part of a subsequent volume of lotion in the reservoir space.
  • the cap is preferably detachably connectable to the applicator.
  • the passageway is formed between the inner member and the outer member.
  • the inner member is movable relative to the outer member to collapse the reservoir space. It is further preferred that the inner member is movable axially relative to the outer member.
  • the inner member is moved towards a spaced position being spaced from the outer member by the introduction of the lotion into the reservoir space. It is further preferred that the inner member is connected to the outer member so as to stop movement of the inner member beyond the spaced position. It is further preferred that the inner member is connected to the outer member by a shaft a distal end of which includes a collar and a proximal end is associated with the inner member, the shaft is located in a bore associated with the outer member, the bore having a shoulder formed on its inner surface at its distal end which is engaged by the collar on the shaft when the inner member reaches the spaced position. It is further preferred that the lotion dispensed from the dispensing device passes through the bore to reach the reservoir space.
  • the shoulder includes an opening through which the lotion passes to reach the reservoir space.
  • the outer member is formed with a recess which in part defines the reservoir space, within which recess the inner member is located.
  • the recess is defined by a base with an angled annular wall extending from the base to the spreading surface, and the inner member has a complementary shape so that when the inner member reaches a seated position whereby it engages the base a substantial majority of the lotion has been evacuated from the reservoir space.
  • at least part of the spreading surface surrounds the recess.
  • an upper surface of the inner member forms part of the spreading surface.
  • the inner member is brought into engagement with the treatment surface so as to collapse the reservoir space.
  • the dispensing device includes a container for containing a bulk volume of the lotion, and a pump for dispensing the measured volume of lotion from the container to the reservoir space, whereby the applicator includes an actuator for operating the pump.
  • the actuator includes a collar that is rotated relative to the dispensing device to operate the pump. It is further preferred that the collar is rotated through substantially 180° to operate the pump to dispense the metered volume of lotion. It is further preferred that the collar engages a cam associated with a head of the pump so that rotation of the collar causes axial movement of the head to dispense the metered volume of lotion.

  • the dispensing device is more clearly shown in Figure 2 as including a container body 3 for containing a bulk volume of lotion to be dispensed by a pump 4 shown located at an upper end of the body 3. While the operation of the pump 4 will be described in greater detail later in the specification, the pump 4 is of the kind having a head 5 which is depressed axially relative to the body 3 so as to dispense a measured volume of lotion from within the body 3.

  • the applicator 2 preferably includes an actuator 7 for operating the pump 4.
  • the components of the actuator 7 and the method of operating the actuator varies amongst the embodiments illustrated from a twist type to a push type.
  • the actuator 7 illustrated in figures 2 to 6 is of the twist type and includes a base 8 with a collar 9 being rotatable relative, to the base 8.
  • the base 8 as shown in this embodiment snap fits to the pump body 6.

  • the location for the connection is not essential in that the base 8 may alternatively be attached to or formed integrally with the container body 3.
  • the collar 9 of the actuator 7 includes at least one lug 10, and in the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2 the collar 9 includes two lugs 10 only one of which can be seen in Figure 2.

  • the cam groove 11 illustrated in figure 2 extends at an angle to the axis AA of the applicator 2 for substantially 180° before extending substantially parallel to the axis AA of the applicator 2. This arrangement results in axial movement of the collar 9 towards the base 8 when the collar 9 is rotated about the axis AA through substantially 180° before moving back along the axis AA to a rest position.
  • the collar 9 is connected to the head 5 of the pump 4 by an inner member 12 so that the axial movement of the collar 9 causes operation of the pump 4.
  • the applicator 2 also includes a receptacle 13 for receiving the measured volume of lotion dispensed from the dispensing device 1.

  • Figure 18 illustrates the receptacle 13 engaging the treatment surface which causes the inner member 12 to move from the spaced position towards a seated position whereby the lower surface 32 of the inner member 12 engages a base 37 of the outer member 14. This forces the lotion in the reservoir space 15 to evacuate through a passageway 38 formed around the periphery of the inner member 12 (see Figure 17).
  • the passageway leads to a spreading surface 21 formed in part by an upper surface of the inner member 12 and in part by a surface surrounding the recess in the outer member 14.
  • the cap 19 is provided to reduce the likelihood of contaminants entering the reservoir space 15 through the passageway 38.
  • an applicator incorporating the invention provides an easy way of applying a metered volume of lotion to a treatment surface. Furthermore the metered volume of lotion can be applied to the treatment surface without leaving residual lotion on other parts of the user which reduces waste and mess.
