A hand-held fluid dispensing applicator that includes a fluid source for containing a fluid, said fluid source having a closed distal end and a proximal end for allowing a liquid to be dispensed therethrough during a use; a tongue member; an attachment portion for connection with said proximal end, said attachment portion having a fracture region at a region of intersection of said tongue and said attachment portion, said tongue member extending outwardly from said fracture region of said attachment portion; an absorbent applicator comprising a stem piece comprising a tubular component; and a fracture anvil coupled to the stem piece, the fracture anvil secured within the tubular component, the fracture anvil comprising a passage in which the tongue member is positioned, a movement of the fracture anvil relative to an axis extending lengthwise along a length of the tongue member causing the tongue member to fracture relative to the fracture region, thereby permitting ejection of the liquid from the fluid source.

A pen has an ink reservoir configured to store an ink containing decorative particles and a pen tip configured to apply the ink to an ink coating target. The pen tip includes a proximal end to which the ink is supplied from the ink reservoir, a distal end opposite to the proximal end and configured to contact the ink coating target, and a groove opening on the outer circumferential surface of the pen tip and extending from the proximal end to the distal end.

A writing instrument system including an elongated tip having a firm, felt or plastic nib and a piercing tip. The elongated tip includes a curvature that resembles a shape of a dolphin and the nib is positioned at a first-end of the elongated tip for distributing ink to a surface in a controlled manner. The elongated tip is in fluid communication with the nib. The elongated tip also includes the piercing tip which is able to penetrate an ink cartridge or tube of a pen and be removably affixed to a pen. The piercing tip is in fluid communication with the elongated tip and allows ink to flow from a penetrated ink cartridge or tube through the elongated tip to the nib where it can be applied to a surface.

A compact system to mix and create color materials is disclosed. The present invention generally related to a color creative system, in which a particular system is capable to create a final mix color of materials from multiple material reservoirs and dispensing the mixed color of material via applicator of choices, all in a single system that can be as small as a pen or a person's thumb or larger as desired. The system is manually operated.

A dispensing applicator may include a container configured to contain a fluid, the container including an inlet end having an opening and an outlet end, the container containing a predetermined volume of fluid; an end cap secured to the inlet end of the container; a gasket placed between the inlet end and the end cap, the gasket being secured to the inlet end and covering the opening; an attachment member received within and secured to the container, the attachment member including a length portion including a frangible section, the frangible section including a tongue element; and a fracture anvil configured to pivotably receive the tongue element, rotationable movement of the fracture anvil relative to the tongue element causing the tongue element to break while remaining attached to the frangible section such that fluid is released from the container.

An applicator comprising a source of fluid and a frangible applicator tip portion attached to the fluid source. When the frangible applicator tip is broken, the fluid flows from the source to an absorbent member attached to the applicator tip to spread the liquid on a surface. The frangible tip may comprise a support element permanently connected to the fluid source, a relatively rigid tongue element, and a frangible region therebetween. The tongue element may comprise ribs for reinforcement. The frangible tip further may comprise a semi-permeable or non-permeable cover to control the speed and direction of the dispersion of the fluid. The dispensing applicator may be used in various medical applications. A fin member, which may be formed as two securable halves, is configured to be disposed about the applicator to facilitate securing of the applicator within an absorbent member and to minimize risk of loss of tongue element portions due to possible separation proximate the frangible region during a use.

Disclosed is a pen for writing, referred to as a palm pen herein because the body of the pen fits into the palm of a human hand. The palm pen can include a spherically shaped body, and an ink delivery system. The ink delivery system can include a tip having an end connected to the body and an opposite end comprising a nib, an ink conduit having an end coupled to the nib within the tip and an opposite end extending inside the body, and a first ink cartridge fluidly coupled with the opposite end of the ink conduit and contained within the body. The ink delivery system can additionally include a cartridge holder having an active cartridge slot for the first ink cartridge and cartridge storage slots for storage of additional ink cartridges.
