Multi-Chamber Container Apparatuses and Methods of Making and Using the Same
The present invention relates to multi-chamber containers. Specifically, the multi-chamber containers comprise, generally, a first container having a swab or applicator contained therein and a second container having a solution therein. In various embodiments, a first container may comprise a fracture recess for breaking and removing the swab or applicator, and a second container may further comprise a fracture recess for opening and exposing the solution. In embodiments, first and second containers are disposed separately, or connectedly side-by-side. In embodiments, a second container is contained within a first container.
LIQUID APPLICATOR COMPRISING SINGLE-PIECE BODY
A liquid applicator comprising an absorbent member, and a single-piece, unitary body. The body can include a closed container defining a reservoir, and a tab. The container can include a main portion, a transition portion, a rib, and a chamber located in the tab and coupled to the transition portion via a frangible connection. The main portion, the transition portion, the rib, and the chamber can each define a portion of the reservoir, and at least the main portion, the transition portion, and the rib can have a uniform wall thickness. The tab can include the chamber and can be coupled to the transition portion at least by the frangible connection, the tab being movable with respect to the transition portion between a first position in which the frangible connection is intact and a second position in which the frangible connection is fractured.
Dispensing applicator for fluids
A hand-held dispensing applicator comprising a source of fluid, a frangible applicator tip attached to the fluid source, and an absorbent member attached to the frangible applicator tip. When the frangible applicator tip is broken, fluid flows from the source to the absorbent member, whereby the fluid is applied and spread on a surface. Preferably, the frangible applicator tip comprises a support element permanently connected to the fluid source, a relatively rigid tongue element extending outwardly of the support element, and a frangible region therebetween. Preferably, the tongue element comprises ribs for reinforcing the tongue element to resist unintentional breaking of the frangible region, and the applicator tip comprises a semi-permeable or non-permeable cover disposed around the frangible region to control the speed and direction of the dispersion of the fluid in the absorbent member. Adaptive embodiments allow the generation of designs applicable to a particular medical purpose.
Liquid applicator
Liquid applicators wherein the applicators include a lever having a hinge, grip and foot integrally formed with a hollow body suitable for receiving a liquid-filled ampoule. The foot is positioned adjacent the ampoule and crushes the ampoule when the lever is depressed.
Cleansing swab for needle pen assembly
A needle cap assembly for use in combination with a needle pen comprising: (i) a needle cap having a needle cannula for injecting a fluid medication into an injection site, (ii) an internal cap configured to be disposed over an injection end of the needle cap, (iii) an external cap having a cavity configured to envelop the internal and needle caps, (iv) a sealing tab configured to seal a cavity of the external cap for enclosing or housing the needle cap assembly, and (v) a cleansing swab disposed in internally of the needle cap assembly. The cleansing swab is disposed internally of the needle cap and includes an absorptive material loaded with a cleansing fluid to clean an injection site prior to injection of fluid medication.
Medical liquid dispensing applicators and methods of manufacture
A liquid dispensing applicator that can include a sound-generating system for generating a sound during rotation of the container body to indicate to a user that the rotation is performed. The sound-generating system includes at least one knob and a plurality of ribs. The at least one knob cooperates with at least some of the ribs during rotation of the container body, in order to generate the sound. The liquid dispensing applicator can alternatively or also include a wing element insertable into a slot provided in an absorbent material. The wing element extends from an outer surface of the head component and comprises opposing surfaces and a at least one edge spike provided on an edge of the at least one wing element, and configured to prevent the absorbent material from being removed after insertion of the wing element into the slot.
Liquid applicator
Liquid applicators for applying a liquid to a surface. The applicators include a lever having a hinge, grip and foot integrally formed with a hollow body suitable for receiving a liquid-filled ampoule. The foot is positioned adjacent the ampoule and crushes the ampoule when the lever is depressed.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR TREATING SITES OF INFECTION
Embodiments of the present invention feature apparatus and methods for disinfecting a site of infection with molecular iodine solutions.
AUTOMATIC LIQUID OUTLET STRUCTURE AND BEAUTY MASSAGE INSTRUMENT
The present disclosure discloses an automatic liquid outlet structure and a beauty massage apparatus, and the automatic liquid outlet structure comprises a rolling massage mechanism, a liquid storage mechanism, and a liquid adsorption mechanism. The liquid adsorption mechanism is disposed between the rolling massage mechanism and the liquid storage mechanism. A first side of the liquid adsorption mechanism is in communication with the liquid storage mechanism, and a second side of the liquid adsorption mechanism is in contact with the rolling massage mechanism. The liquid storage mechanism is configured to hold a liquid. The liquid held in the liquid storage mechanism is configured to be adsorbed into the liquid adsorption mechanism. When the rolling massage mechanism is in a rolling process, the liquid adsorbed in the liquid adsorption mechanism is transferred to the rolling massage mechanism.
DEVICES AND METHODS FOR TREATING THE SKIN USING A POROUS MEMBER
According to some embodiments, a skin treatment assembly comprises a tip comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a container configured to secure to the tip along the proximal end of the tip, wherein the container is configured to contain a liquid, and a porous member configured to extend at least partially within an interior of the container such that it contact a liquid contained within the container, wherein the porous member is configured to extend at least partially within an interior of the tip and is configured to facilitate the transfer of liquid from the container to the distal end of the tip.
