Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of nail application technology, and in particular to a nail applicator. Background Technology
[0002] Damaged nails require treatment with appropriate medication, and a convenient tool is needed to apply the medication to the nails.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN116943002A discloses a triazole topical drug component, comprising a triazole topical solution and a swab applicator for applying the triazole topical solution to a affected area. The triazole topical solution contains iefluconazole, edetate or its salt, citric acid, butylated hydroxyanisole, C12-15 alcohol lactate, diisopropyl adipate, cyclomethyl silicone, water, and ethanol, wherein the butylated hydroxyanisole comprises 0.025-0.05% by weight. The swab applicator includes a bottle body, an inner stopper, a cylindrical brush, and a dust cap, with the triazole topical solution contained within the bottle body. This triazole topical drug component can be used by pharmaceutical companies to manufacture stable iefluconazole topical formulations.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, existing technologies utilize columnar brushes to apply medication to nails. However, with prolonged use, the brush bristles may detach from the mounting section. The detached bristles not only adhere to the nail along with the medication but also require cleaning. Furthermore, as the number of bristles decreases, the volume of the application area gradually shrinks, thus requiring more brush application steps and time, which reduces the application efficiency of the applicator. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the application efficiency of nail applicators, this application provides a nail applicator.
[0006] This application provides a nail applicator using the following technical solution:
[0007] A nail applicator includes a bottle body, a cap, and an applicator plate. The cap is detachably connected to the inlet end of the bottle body. The cap has a backflow preventer to prevent the liquid from flowing backward. The cap has an applicator opening. The applicator plate is connected to the applicator opening. Both the applicator plate and the bottle body are made of a flexible material. The applicator plate has several liquid supply holes.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, during application, the applicator is placed against the nail surface while the bottle is squeezed, causing it to deform. The liquid then flows sequentially through the anti-reverse component and the applicator opening, finally exiting from the supply hole, achieving the effect of applying the liquid to the nail. By manipulating the bottle and using the applicator made of a variable material, not only can the applicator be adapted to the shape of nails of different sizes, but the number of applications is also reduced, ensuring the nail is quickly and evenly coated. The volume of the applicator remains constant. Compared to existing technologies, this further improves the ease of operation and efficiency of the nail applicator.
[0009] Optionally, the smear is arranged in a spherical arc shape.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the spherical arc-shaped applicator increases the contact area with the nail per unit time, thereby further reducing the nail application steps and further improving the nail application efficiency.
[0011] Optionally, the inlet end of the bottle body is provided with an installation tube, and the bottle cap is fitted onto the installation tube and threadedly engaged with the installation tube.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the bottle cap and the installation pipe thread are matched, making the operation simple and quick, and improving the operability of the bottle cap.
[0013] Optionally, the bottle cap is provided with a connector, the bottle cap is connected to the mounting tube through the connector, the anti-reverse component is connected inside the connector, the connector is threaded with the bottle cap, the connector is connected to a liquid outlet channel, and the application port is located at the end of the liquid outlet channel away from the bottle cap.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when applying the medicine, squeezing the bottle causes the liquid to pass through the anti-reverse component, the liquid outlet channel, and the application port in sequence, and overflow from the application pad. The application pad is then used to apply the medicine to the nail repeatedly. After the application to a single nail is completed, the liquid is intercepted by the anti-reverse component, causing the residual liquid to remain in the liquid outlet channel, thus quickly providing liquid for the next nail. This further improves the convenience of nail application and also allows for more precise application of the medicine to the nail.
[0015] Optionally, the bottle cap is provided with a receiving groove and a liquid outlet cavity, the liquid outlet cavity being connected to the bottle body, the application port being provided on the side wall of the receiving groove, and the liquid outlet cavity being connected to the receiving groove through the application port.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when applying the medicine, insert your finger into the receiving groove with your nail facing the application pad, and then squeeze the bottle. The medicine will pass through the anti-reverse component, the dispensing chamber and the application port, and finally overflow from the application pad. During this process, you can rotate your finger or the bottle to make your nail rotate back and forth, so that the medicine can quickly adhere to the nail and achieve the effect of applying the medicine to the nail.
[0017] Optionally, the anti-reverse assembly includes a fixed arc plate and an elastic diaphragm. The fixed arc plate is connected inside the bottle cap and covers the inside of the bottle cap. The fixed arc plate has several liquid outlet holes. Several elastic diaphragms are connected inside the bottle cap. The elastic diaphragms are evenly distributed around the inside of the bottle cap and cover the top wall of the fixed arc plate.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the bottle is squeezed, the liquid medicine applies pressure to the elastic diaphragm through the outlet hole on the fixed arc plate, causing the elastic diaphragm to deform and allowing the liquid medicine to pass smoothly through the anti-reverse component; when the bottle is stopped being squeezed, the elastic diaphragm recovers through its own material influence and covers the fixed arc plate again to prevent the liquid medicine from flowing back through the fixed arc plate, thus achieving the effect of blocking the liquid medicine.
[0019] Optionally, the smear is made of silicone material.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, silicone material has good elastic deformation and corrosion resistance. In terms of nail application, silicone application pads can better adapt to changes in nail shape, improving the convenience of nail application. The corrosion resistance of silicone also reduces the possibility of reaction with the solution.
[0021] Optionally, the bottle body is made of low-density polyethylene material.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, low-density polyethylene has good flexibility, transparency and chemical stability. The bottle can be easily restored by loosening the cap. The transparency ensures that the remaining amount of medicine can be observed at any time. The good chemical stability can reduce the possibility of reaction with the medicine, so that the bottle can better serve as a medicine container.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. During application, the applicator is placed against the nail surface while the bottle is squeezed. The bottle deforms, and the liquid flows through the anti-reverse component and the applicator opening, finally exiting from the supply hole, thus achieving the effect of applying the liquid to the nail. By manipulating the bottle and using the adaptable material of the applicator, not only can the applicator be adapted to the shape of different nail sizes, but the number of applications is also reduced, allowing the nail to be quickly and evenly coated. The volume of the applicator remains constant. Compared with existing technologies, this further improves the ease of operation and application efficiency of the nail applicator.
[0025] 2. When applying, squeeze the bottle. The liquid will pass through the anti-reverse component, the dispensing channel and the application port in sequence. After applying to a single nail, the liquid is intercepted by the anti-reverse component, which keeps the residual liquid in the dispensing channel, so that the liquid can be quickly provided to the next nail. This further improves the convenience of nail application and also allows for more precise application of the liquid to the nail.
[0026] 3. When applying, insert your finger into the receiving groove with your nail facing the application pad, then squeeze the bottle. The liquid will pass through the anti-reverse component, the dispensing chamber, and the application port, and finally come out of the application pad. During this process, rotate your finger to make your nail rotate back and forth, so that the liquid can quickly adhere to the nail and achieve the effect of applying the liquid to the nail.
[0027] 4. When the bottle is squeezed, the liquid medicine applies pressure to the elastic diaphragm through the outlet hole on the fixed arc plate, causing the elastic diaphragm to deform and allowing the liquid medicine to pass smoothly through the anti-reverse component; when the bottle is stopped being squeezed, the elastic diaphragm recovers due to its own material properties and covers the fixed arc plate again to prevent the liquid medicine from flowing back through the fixed arc plate, thus achieving the effect of blocking the liquid medicine.

Detailed Implementation
[0035] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.
[0036] Embodiment 1 of this application discloses a nail applicator. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 The nail applicator includes a bottle body 1, a cap 2, and an applicator 3. The bottle body 1 is cylindrical and made of a deformable material, such as low-density polyethylene. The inlet end of the bottle body 1 is located at the top of the bottle body 1 and is fixedly connected to an installation tube 11, the outer ring wall of which is provided with a threaded section.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottle cap 2 has an integrally formed connector 21 and a liquid outlet channel 22. The bottle cap 2 is threadedly engaged with the mounting tube 11 via the connector 21. An application port 23 is provided at the end of the liquid outlet channel 22 furthest from the bottle cap 2. The application sheet 3 is fixedly connected to and covers the application port 23. Several liquid supply holes 31 are provided on the application sheet 3. The application sheet 3 is made of a flexible material, such as silicone. The application sheet 3 is spherically arc-shaped. The spherically arc-shaped application sheet 3 can better conform to the nail surface.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Diaphragm 42. A fixed arc plate 41 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector 21 and covers the inlet end of the connector 21. The fixed arc plate 41 is located above the mounting tube 11, and has several liquid outlet holes 411. Several elastic diaphragms 42 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector 21. The elastic diaphragms 42 are arranged in a fan shape, and are evenly distributed on the top wall of the fixed arc plate 41.
[0039] The implementation principle of the nail applicator in Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: When applying nail polish, the bottle body 1 is squeezed, the bottle body 1 deforms, the liquid passes through the fixed arc plate 41, and pressure is applied to the elastic diaphragm 42. The elastic diaphragm 42 deforms, and the liquid overflows from the applicator 3 through the liquid outlet channel 22, so that the applicator 3 is attached to the nail surface and moves back and forth to achieve the effect of applying nail polish.
[0040] By manipulating the bottle body 1 and using the flexible applicator 3 to apply nail polish, not only can the applicator 3 be adapted to the shape of nails of different sizes, but the number of times the nail polish is applied can also be reduced, so that the nail polish is quickly and evenly applied. The volume of the applicator 3 remains constant. Compared with the existing technology, this further improves the ease of operation of the nail polish applicator and also improves the application efficiency of the nail polish applicator.
[0041] Example 2: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the structure of the bottle cap 2 is different.
[0042] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The bottle cap 2 is fitted onto the mounting tube 11 and threaded into it. A check valve assembly 4 is located inside the bottle cap 2, above the mounting tube 11. The top of the bottle cap 2 has a receiving groove 24, and a liquid outlet chamber 25 is provided inside the bottle cap 2, connecting the inside of the bottle cap 2 and the receiving groove 24. An application port 23 is located between the liquid outlet chamber 25 and the receiving groove 24. An application pad 3 is fixedly connected to the application port 23, and the application pad 3 is arc-shaped and flush with the inner wall of the receiving groove 24.
[0043] When applying the medicine, insert your finger into the receiving groove 24 and squeeze the bottle 1. The medicine enters the dispensing chamber 25 through the anti-reverse component 4 and then overflows through the application pad 3. At the same time, rotate your finger or the bottle 1 to rub the application pad 3 repeatedly on your nail, thus achieving the effect of applying the medicine to your nail.
[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
