Problems solved by technology

[0006] Thus, existing pen applicators suffer from the common problems of inadequate sealing, uncontrolled delivery of formulation, and excessive number of actuations before the applicator is primed and ready for use
For example, when the applicator is only stored between uses, an insufficient seal can lead to evaporation of the formulation
Additionally, uncontrolled delivery can cause the user to apply too much or too little formulation for a particular application, possibly with harmful or ineffective results
In addition, excessive number of actuations for priming can result in the user thinking that the applicator is broken, non-working, empty, dry or otherwise unusable when the applicator is actually working and not fully primed for use

Abstract

A click pen applicator device that provides predetermined dosing of the formulation for precise application, and rapidly primes the formulation using the dosing click mechanism to prepare the applicator for use is disclosed.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from prior US Provisional Application Serial No. 61 / 415,522, filed November 19, 2010, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to click pen applicator devices and methods of using click pen applicator devices. Background technique [0004] Existing pen applicators typically use a twist function to dispense formulation from the pen applicator. These twist pen applicators typically include a swivel portion that twists or rotates relative to the rest of the applicator to advance the formulation contained in the twist pen applicator. However, such twist pen applicators do not provide a predetermined dose of formulation because the rotating part is usually free to rotate. Therefore, the user needs to determine the proper amount of formulation to dispense for a particular application. ...
