Dispenser vessel

A mixing assembly, device, system and method for operating are provided which includes a powder assembly holding a first container containing a powder, the powder assembly having a powder dispensing means for dispensing a predetermined quantity of the powder, a liquid assembly holding a second container containing a liquid, the liquid assembly having a liquid dispensing means for dispensing a predetermined amount of the liquid, and a mixing bowl for receiving the predetermined quantity of the powder and the predetermined amount of the liquid.

Mixing systems and methods

An incremental advance dispenser includes a barrel which has a longitudinal axis, a muzzle end, and an opposite breach end. A shuttle is slidably connected to the barrel and movable with respect to the barrel along the longitudinal axis. A cup which carries a product is movable within the barrel along the longitudinal axis. The shuttle is positionable to an extended position toward the muzzle end of the barrel, and to a retracted position toward the breach end of the barrel. Movement of the shuttle to the extended position from the retracted position causes the cup to move an incremental distance toward the muzzle end of the barrel.

A propulsion system for an appliable product, includes a distal tube which has an open end. A proximal tube is rotatably connected to the distal tube on a common central axis to form a cavity. A holder which carries the appliable product is shaped and dimensioned to slide in the cavity along the common central axis. A line having two strands connects the distal tube and the proximal tube. When the proximal tube is rotated with respect to the distal tube, the two strands of the line twist together and the line exerts a force upon the holder so that the holder moves toward the open end of the distal tube.

A child resistant flip top closure system is provided that combines a flip top closure for a container with a child resistant locking mechanism system, which uses an automatic locking element that is depressed to enable a simultaneous rotation of a locking member to transition the flip top from a locked position preventing opening the flip top to dispense any substance in the container to an unlocked position, in which the flip top can be opened to enable dispensing of a substance in the container.

A child resistant disk top closure system is provided that combines a disk top closure for a container with a child resistant locking mechanism system, which uses an automatic locking element that is depressed to enable a simultaneous rotation of a locking member to transition the disk top from a locked position preventing opening the disk top to dispense any substance in the container to an unlocked position, in which the disk top can be opened to enable dispensing of a substance in the container.

A cosmetic brush having a flare-shaped ferrule at its mouth, through which an advanceable and retractable, resilient bristle brush extends. The brush connects in the handle, with an elevator mechanism that has a cupped upper end which carries the brush, and effects the axial movement thereof. As more bristles are exposed at the ferrule's flare-shaped mouth in response to their advancing movement, the degree of flare of the brush increases. The resilience of the exposed bristles along with the flare adjustability, creates the same effect as a plurality of different sized, smaller brushes. There is thus eliminated the need for carrying multiple different sized brushes that might otherwise be required in order to produce an equivalent optimal brushing result.

A cosmetic compact having a base, and a lid assembly having a window hingedly connected to the base. The lid assembly and window are movable between open and closed positions. A platform member carries the cosmetic product, and can move in the manner of a float between the base and lid assembly. A cam mechanism on the window in the form of depending lugs, cooperates with camming ramps on the platform member. Exteriorly accessible manually engageable grip members connected with the platform member, allow the latter to be rotated with the lid assembly closed. Such rotation effects a tightening of the seal between the window and the platform member, by virtue of the action of the window lugs on the platform member's camming ramps. Improved seal between the window and the platform member is accomplished by virtue of such tightening. In addition, the arrangement is such that the compact can be locked against inadvertent opening, simultaneously with the tightening and sealing action on the platform member.

A cosmetic compact having an expansive base member containing a series of upwardly-facing product wells to accommodate one or more cosmetic items, the compact further having a cover member, and having a shuttle piece interposed between the base member and cover member. The various parts have cooperating slide components for permitting relative movement of the members in four opposed directions. A versatile, four way slide compact construction is thus made possible.

A drive screw having an axial bore is disposed within a tubular container. A cap for closing the container has mounted therefrom an applicator that is insertable in the bore of the drive screw. A first seal and a second seal, on the drive screw, form with the inner wall of the container and the outer wall of the drive screw an annular compartment for housing a cosmetic composition. A normally closed channel is provided between the compartment and the bore of the drive screw. A drive on the cap and a complementary drive on the drive screw cooperate with the first seal and the second seal to decrease the volume of the compartment in which the composition is housed each time the container is opened by removing the cap. A valve opens the channel in response to the decrease in volume in the compartment when the cap is removed so as to permit composition to flow through the channel into the bore of the drive screw to contact the applicator.
