Abstract
A single dose package having a material chamber frangibly separable from a handle and concentric partial or semi-cylinders holding an applicator. An outer partial cylinder placed over an inner semi-cylinder encloses and holds an applicator. Moving the handle relative to the material chamber separates the handle from the material chamber to access a material contained within the material chamber. Different sizes and shapes of plugs sealing the material chamber selectively adjust the volume of the material chamber.
Claims15
A single dose package comprising:
- a stand;
- a material well attached to said stand;
- a handle frangibly attached to said material well;
- a first partial cylinder having an axis and a first longitudinal opening extending along the axis, said first partial cylinder attached to said handle;
- an applicator held within said first partial cylinder;
- and
- a second partial cylinder having a second longitudinal opening extending along the axis rotatably placed over said first partial cylinder, wherein said second partial cylinder is configured to cover the first longitudinal opening of said first partial cylinder when rotated about the axis of said first partial cylinder.
A single dose package comprising:
- a stand;
- a material well attached to said stand;
- a handle frangibly attached to said material well;
- a first partial cylinder having an opening attached to said handle;
- an applicator held within said first partial cylinder;
- and
- a second partial cylinder rotatably placed over said first partial cylinder, whereby said second partial cylinder is capable of covering the opening of said first partial cylinder;
- a plug recess formed in said material well;
- a plug placed in said recess sealing said material well;
- and
- wherein said plug recess comprises a plurality of steps of different diameters.
A single dose package comprising:
- a material chamber having an opening;
- a handle attached to said material chamber covering the opening;
- a frangible line placed between said material chamber and said handle;
- an inner semi-cylinder having an axis and a first longitudinal opening attached to said handle, said inner semi-cylinder having an inner surface and a distal end;
- a protuberance formed on the inner surface of said inner semi-cylinder;
- an applicator placed within said inner semi-cylinder and held by said protuberance;
- a collar formed on the distal end of said inner semi-cylinder;
- an outer partial cylinder having a second longitudinal opening placed around said inner semi-cylinder and fixed in a direction along the axis of said inner semi-cylinder between said handle and said collar, said outer partial cylinder being rotatable on said inner semi-cylinder, wherein said outer partial cylinder is configured to cover the first longitudinal opening in said inner semi-cylinder when said outer partial cylinder is rotated about the axis of said inner semi-cylindrical opening, whereby said applicator is enclosed within said inner semi-cylinder and said outer partial cylinder.
A single dose package comprising:
- a material chamber having an opening;
- a handle attached to said material chamber covering the opening;
- a frangible line placed between said material chamber and said handle;
- an inner semi-cylinder attached to said handle, said inner semi-cylinder having an inner surface and a distal end;
- a protuberance formed on the interior surface of said inner semi-cylinder;
- an applicator placed within said inner semi-cylinder and held by said protuberance;
- a collar formed on said distal end;
- an outer partial cylinder having a longitudinal opening placed on said inner semi-cylinder between said handle and said collar, said outer partial cylinder being rotatable on said inner semi-cylinder, whereby said outer partial cylinder is capable of being rotated so as to cover an opening in said inner semi-cylinder enclosing said applicator;
- a plug recess formed in said material chamber opposing the opening;
- a material placed in said material chamber;
- a plug placed in said plug recess, whereby said material is sealed within said material well;
- and
- wherein said plug recess comprises a plurality of steps of different diameters.
