摘要:
Provided is a tampon applicator having one or more insertion indicators to gauge and/or control the insertion depth of a tampon. The one or more insertion indicators may be located on the tampon applicator barrel, plunger, tampon, removal string, or any combinations thereof. As a result of the one or more insertion indicators, a woman can adjust the insertion depth of the tampon to her body's requirements ensuring leakage protection, comfort, or both.

The tampon applicator assembly includes a tampon applicator section, an outer housing section, and a plunger section. The combined tampon applicator section and plunger section function as a conventional plunger-type tampon applicator. The outer housing section includes a sleeve with a proximal portion and a distal portion. The (distal) insertion end of the tampon applicator section essentially fits inside the proximal portion of the sleeve, and the distal portion of the sleeve is designed to accommodate a feminine hygiene product, such as a pad, a disposable wipe, a towelette disposal mitt, a simple disposal bag, and other products associated with menstruation.

An applicator for a tampon comprises an outer cylinder (2) containing an absorber (4) therein and provided with a petal-like components (8) for pushing out the absorber (4) on one side thereof and with a grip cylinder (7) on the other side thereof, and an inner tube (3) which is inserted into the grip cylinder (7) and can push out the absorber (4) to the outside from the petal-like components (8) by moving into the outer cylinder (2). A plurality of rows of annular protrusions (11, 12, 13, 14) are formed in the whole area of the grip cylinder (7) in the circumferential direction, such that the height from the outer circumferential surface of the grip cylinder (7) decreases gradually toward the side of the inner tube (3) being inserted into the grip cylinder (7).

A package containing vaginal-health products comprises a first vaginal-health product comprising a first applicator. The first applicator comprises a first barrel portion, a first plunger portion, and a first pledget at least partly contained in the first barrel portion, where the first barrel portion has a first barrel color. The package also contains a second vaginal-health product comprising a second applicator. The second applicator comprises a second barrel portion, a second plunger portion, and a second pledget at least partly contained in the second barrel portion, where the second barrel portion comprises a second barrel color. In addition, the first barrel color is different from the second barrel color, and the first pledget is the same as the second pledget.
摘要:
An applicator includes a barrel having an outer surface, an insertion end, and an opposed gripper end; a fluid lubricant disposed in fluid communication with a portion of the outer surface of the barrel; and optionally a plunger arranged and configured to be moveable within the barrel to expel an insertable device from the barrel and into a body cavity. Methods of delivering an insertable device into a body cavity may include the steps of moving a plunger into an insertion member to dispense fluid lubricant to the outer surface of the insertion member; the step of inserting an insertion member portion having encapsulated lubricant on an outer surface thereof into a body cavity thereby rupturing the capsule; and/or the steps of moving a plunger into an insertion member, rupturing a reservoir containing fluid lubricant, moving the fluid lubricant toward the outer surface of the insertion member, and inserting the insertion member into the body cavity.
摘要:
An applicator device capable of housing an insertable element includes a plunger member that is slideably engaged with the insertion member and has an insertion end and a gripper end. The gripper end of the plunger member consists of a locking mechanism having a diameter greater than the diameter of the plunger member. The insertion member also includes a locking mechanism that is capable of engaging the locking mechanism of the plunger member that may prevent the plunger member from withdrawal.

An insertion device 10 for inserting material 13 into a body cavity is provided. An elongate, tubular holder 12, shaped for insertion into the body cavity, is adapted to hold the material to be inserted. The holder 12 has a material expulsion end portion 14 and a plunger 20, which is telescopically and slidably mounted in the holder, which is adapted to expel the material from the holder when pushed manually into the holder. The holder, and preferably the plunger as well, comprises an outer paper layer 28 and a polymer layer 30, adhered to the paper layer on its outer surface, the layer having adequate water resistance to maintain its integrity during insertion into the body cavity.
摘要:
A menstrual, flow-controlling tampon comprising a generally upright insertion tube having upper and lower ends; flow-receiving structure positioned within the tube to be bodily displaced and expelled from the upper end of the tube; the flow-receiving structure having a deployable portion configured to distend from a downward collapsed position to an upwardly deployed condition, to extend into engagement with vaginal walls associated with the cervix, and accommodation to length of vaginal barrel, following its being expelled from the tube; and removal structure associated with the receiving structure to effect withdrawal thereof away from the cervix, whereby upper extent of the deployable portion of the flow-receiving structure gathers to retain flow in the flow-receiving structure during withdrawal.
摘要:
An applicator-type tampon in which a mass of absorbent material is contained in an outer cylinder and a pusher structure has pusher members movable through one or more openings in the side wall of the outer cylinder for displacing the mass of absorbent material from the outer cylinder into the vagina.
摘要:
A tampon comprises an applicator having an outer cylinder and an absorbent material push-out portion and an absorbing material contained in said applicator, characterized in that the inner diameter of the rear end portion of said outer cylinder is smaller than the inner diameter of the barrel portion of said cylinder and said absorbent material push-out portion has a cavity in the center thereof and comprises a push-out top end contained in said outer cylinder and an inserting supporting piece connected to said push-out top end and folded outwardly from outer cylinder.
