Abstract
An applicator insert for an applicator implement comprises an applicator member with capillary spaces, which is slidably accommodated in a holder in the form of a tubular sleeve. The sleeve has a front end portion of an internal cross-section which matches the applicator member to guide same and a rearward end portion of an internal cross-section which is larger than the cross-section of the applicator member. Disposed in the space between the rearward sleeve portion and the applicator member is a spring element having its front end portion fixed with respect to the applicator member and its rear end portion fixed with respect to the rearward sleeve portion, whereby the applicator member is sprung in relation to the sleeve.
