Container and dispensing device
A dispensing device includes first and second cylindrical portions which are detachably interconnected end-to-end. The first portion is arranged to store consumables, such as bags, for collecting pet faeces and includes a tubular side-wall 110 having an aperture formed therein through which the consumables can be dispensed. The second portion is arranged to store a fluid such as a hand sanitizer and has an outlet at one end through which the fluid can be dispensed. The dispensing device provides a convenient manner for storing consumables and associated fluids together, so that, for example, a user can sanitize their hands after picking up pet faeces using a dispensed bag.
User friendly female condom and applicator
We have developed a female condom and applicator apparatus that makes female condom easier to apply and more comfortable to use throughout the entire process. Several embodiments take advantage of traditional female tampon applicator structure and existing female condom design. This is easier for female users to adopt due to their already familiarity with similar device and their usage. One design has the applicator on the inside of the female condom which makes the applicator reusable. Another design has the entire female condom tucked inside the applicator, with the condom inner ring inside the applicator outer tube and condom outer ring inside applicator's inner ring. Another design has strings attached to the condom outside ring to keep it from moving or make noise. The device provides a low cost, easy to use, no side-effects, and ready-for-mass adoption solution for the market.
A CONDOM HOLDER WHICH MAY BE INTEGRATED DIRECTLY INTO A CONDOM WRAPPER TO ASSIST USERS IN THE CORRECT APPLICATION OF A CONDOM
The present disclosure relates to a holder for a condom having a tip. The holder may include a closable pocket for pinching the tip of the condom when the pocket is closed and a shield region adjacent to the closable pocket for covering the outer surface of the condom when the condom holder is in use. The present disclosure further relates to a method of packaging a condom having a tip. The method may include the steps of pinching the tip in a closable pocket of a holder, and completely covering the outer surface of the condom with a shield region of the holder. The holder may include a first strip with a first end and a second strip with a first end, wherein the first strip is joined to the second strip, and wherein the closable pocket is formed between the first strip and the second strip.
Reusable Packaging And Storage
A reusable packaging and storage article for an elastic constriction ring is described wherein the article comprises a bottom top member and a member configured to releasably engage with each other, wherein the bottom member comprises: a cavity of substantially circular shape having a perimeter lip with an inner and outer surface to house, in use, a portion of the elastic constriction ring; and an at least partially pillar extending from a substantially central portion of the cavity; and wherein a summit of the pillar has a diameter less than the diameter of a central aperture of the elastic constriction ring, and a lower portion of the pillar has a diameter greater than the diameter of a central aperture of the elastic constriction ring; and wherein the top member comprises: a cavity of substantially circular shape having a perimeter lip with an inner and outer surface to house, in use, a portion of the elastic constriction ring, wherein the diameter of an inner surface of the perimeter is the same or greater than the diameter of the outer surface of the perimeter lip of the bottom member. A consumer product is also described.
Apparatus for storing and dispensing condom wrappers
As apparatus for storing and dispensing condoms is provided. The apparatus comprises a body includes a base for receiving a stack of condom wrappers, and an opening for accessing a condom wrapper, the opening including a guide for adjacent a side of the opening. The apparatus also includes a cutting assembly having a blade configurable in an extended position for cutting an edge of the condom wrapper as the condom wrapper is pulled through the opening. The guide configured to deform and/or displace a condom within the condom wrapper laterally away from the blade so that the blade does not cut the condom as the condom wrapper is pulled through the opening, wherein the guide has a gap with a gap height less than a thickness of a rolled condom and wherein at least a portion of the gap is closer to a center of the opening than the blade.
Packaging Systems for Implantable Devices and Related Methods
A tray for securing an implantable device to a carrier member includes a slot configured to retain the carrier member and a receptacle adjacent the slot. The carrier member surrounds a shaft of the implantable device. The receptacle has a first width at a proximal end of the receptacle to receive first and second arms of the implantable device in an initial state in which the first and second arms extend substantially perpendicularly from the shaft. The receptacle has a second width at a distal end of the receptacle for receiving the first and second arms of the implantable device in a collapsed state in which the first and second arms are folded against the shaft such that the carrier member can be slid over the first and second arms to retain the first and second arms. The second width is less than the first width.
Internal condom method and device
An intraurethral contraceptive device includes an insertion tool and a urethral sleeve inside the insertion tool. The urethral sleeve includes a balloon on an outer surface and a distal proximal end of the urethral sleeve, having an air lumen that extends to a distal end of the urethral sleeve. There is an inside reservoir at a distal end of the sleeve, configured to capture any fluid traveling from the proximal end to the distal end of the urethral sleeve. An insertion plunger is coupled to a plunger head. The insertion plunger is configured to be placed inside a distal end of the insertion tool.
HYDRATION PREVENTION COATING
Occlusion devices and delivery systems are described in which a polymerizing oil is used to protect a hydrogel from premature swelling. In an embodiment, a delivery system includes an occlusion device releasably coupled within a catheter sheath. The occlusion device includes an expandable implant and a hydrogel. An at least partially oxidized polymerizing oil is inside a lumen of the catheter sheath between the distal end of the catheter sheath and the hydrogel.
INTIMATE CLEANSER
The utility model aims at an intimate cleanser, particularly an intimate douche (500) comprising a bag (100), and a fixed and/or threadable applicator nozzle (200), in which the folding bag (100) presents a new practical and anatomic design, resulting in a portable and disposable intimate douche (500). Additionally, the utility model provides irrigation of the pelvic cavity through the flow of content, preferably improved water expelled from the intimate douche (500) into the female and/or male pelvic cavity in order to assist in hygiene, cleansing, treating, odorizing, gut flora replacement, lubrication and/or anesthesia of such cavities.
PACKING FOR A CONDOM
The invention relates to barrier contraceptives, more particularly, to a packing for a condom, which ensures that the condom is securely held until it is completely unfolded. The packing for a condom comprises a covering with a holder inside, and the holder is equipped with fasteners designed to hold the condom in a folded state and located on the inner and/or outer side of the folded condom, wherein in each fastener and/or between at least one pair consisting of an inner and an outer fastener a gap of variable size is formed, which, in one position, allows the folded condom to be placed in the fasteners through it, and in the other position it does not allow the completely folded condom to separate from the fasteners.
