摘要:
A blister package for a cosmetic article is disclosed which provides a means to include and protect an applicator while permitting the viewing of the cosmetic. The package comprises a support panel on which are mounted first and second blisters adapted to confine a cosmetic applicator and article, respectively. The first blister is mountable on the support panel confining the applicator and providing support for the cosmetic article while protecting the applicator from crushing and contamination. The second blister is mountable over the first blister, and the cosmetic article supported thereon, in a manner which allows the cosmetic article to be opened and the cosmetic therein viewed while preventing access to the cosmetic.

An improved applicator for soft materials includes a cartridge section and a relatively rotatable body section, the soft material being contained within the cartridge section and a plunger being provided to advance the soft material. The improvement resides in providing an assembly within the applicator body to prevent the inadvertent separation of the cartridge section from the body section. In a preferred embodiment, this assembly comprises a clutch means between the rotatable body section and the plunger whereby rotation of the body is transmitted to the plunger to advance and retract the plunger and associated soft material, the clutch means being designed so as to disengage before the plunger is retracted to the point at which it would forcibly separate the cartridge from the body.

The invention comprises a transparent, molded undercap which fits over the open end of a lipstick type case from which a lipstick or other similar waxy mass is propelled and which engages the shoulder of the case normally engaged by the lipstick cap when it is in place. The undercap is sized to fit snuggly within the lipstick cap yet permit the cap to be removed while the undercap remains in place over the lipstick. Preferably, the open end of the undercap has a size and shape which is substantially identical to that of the cap so as to form an even closure with the lipstick case whereby a tamper indicating or resistant means, such as an adhesive tape or a shrink band, may be applied across the juncture between the undercap and the case to secure the undercap in place and seal the lipstick. In this manner, the lipstick cap may be removed from the lipstick case to view the lipstick while the undercap remains in place to protect the lipstick. When the lipstick case has a polygonal cross section, molding the undercap to fit the lipstick case also serves to prevent actuation of the propelling mechanism, even when the lipstick cap is removed, since it resists the relative rotation of the lipstick case and the lipstick tube which normally actuates the propelling mechanism. Alternatively, the case and undercap may be provided with other means, such as cooperating detents, whereby actuation of the propelling mechanism is prevented.

The pump is clamped to the top wall of a container closure by a pair of opposed, upper and lower clamping surfaces on the pump body which position the body to project down into the container. The lower clamping surface takes the form of a circular flange which is integral with the pump body and which is itself normally clamped between the top wall of the closure and the upper edge of the neck of the container when the neck is only slightly larger than the pump body, thereby preventing rotation of the body when the pump plunger is rotated to either lock or unlock the same from a fully depressed, stored position. When the pump is used on a large closure having a wide neck whose upper edge therefore fails to clamp against the pump flange, the pump body will nonetheless be held immobile by a series of flat surfaces therearound which matingly interlock with complimentally configured flat edges in the closure opening through which the pump body extends.
