An index plate molding device configured to produce a multi-component part including an injection mold having an injection parting surface, and an ejection mold having an ejection parting surface in selective contact with the injection parting surface to form an ejection parting line therebetween. The index plate molding device also includes an index plate movable relative to the injection mold and the ejection mold, where the index plate includes an index parting surface in selective contact with the injection parting surface to form an index parting line therebetween, and where the index plate is shaped such that the outer surface of the first component of the multi-component part is available for overmolding on both sides of the index parting line when the first component is coupled to the index plate.

A finger toothbrush for brushing the teeth of a patient comprises a soft, for example rubbery, flexible outer housing defining an elongated rubbery housing internal volume, with the flexible outer housing having an outside surface and an internal surface. The flexible outer housing has a proximal end and a distal end. A finger receiving member defines an internal volume for receiving a finger of an individual. The finger receiving member is more rigid than the soft flexible outer housing and is positioned within or incorporated into the outer housing layer, for example, as coil or wire. The finger receiving member is positioned with its outer surface being positioned radially inwardly from the outer surface of the rubbery flexible outer housing. The rubbery flexible outer housing is made of a material compressible enough to absorb the pressure of teeth biting down against the finger receiving member without the teeth being damaged. A cluster of scrubbing surfaces extend from the outer surface of the rubbery flexible outer housing.

An apparatus for cleaning an ocular adnexa having a finger sole. The finger sole has a sole surface and a sole bottom. An array of bristles is coupled to the sole bottom. A finger strap is coupled to the sole surface.

An interdental cleaner has a rod-shaped support made of plastics material, which has a cleaning device in an axial end region, which cleaning device has a covering for the support made of a soft-elastic plastics material and a bristle set having a plurality of bristle bundles protruding, with a radial component, from the covering. The bristle bundles extend through the support and are embedded and held therein. The covering has at least one recess on its outer surface, wherein at least one of the bristle bundles is arranged within the recess.

The present invention relates to an applicator device for applying a product of the fluid or pasty type to keratin fibres, comprising a central core (1) having an elongate shape which extends along a longitudinal axis XX, at least one row of elongate spikes (2) comprising a first end (20) embedded in the core and a second, free end (21). According to the invention, at least one of the spikes (2) is delimited by a first flat face (200) that is coincident with a longitudinal plane, known as the reference plane P, and by a second flat face (210) that forms an angle of between 10 and 180° with said first flat face, said at least one spike comprising a first region (22) that is embedded in the core (1) and has a substantially constant cross section in the form of a portion of a circle, and a second region (23) having a variable cross section that is situated substantially in the longitudinal continuation of said first region (22).
