Applicator tube for liquid or semi-liquid products

A device for dosaging measured quantities of liquid or semi-liquid cosmetic products from a removable container having a cosmetic product stored therein, the device comprising:

• a cap having a rod, an applicator for applying the cosmetic product being provided at an end of the rod;
• an outer body, the cap fitting one end of the outer body so that the applicator extends into the outer body, and is removable from the outer body for applying the cosmetic product;
• the outer body including means for receiving the removable container so that contact between air outside the removable container and the product inside the container is substantially prevented at all times;
• a longitudinally moveable part inside the outer body, the moveable part having an end portion, a predetermined space formed in the end portion corresponding to a measured quantity of product;
• connecting means for connecting the predetermined space to the applicator so that the measured quantity of product can pass from the predetermined space through the connecting means to the applicator;
• and
• a deformable part associated with the moveable part for drawing product from the removable container into the predetermined space in the end portion;
• wherein the movable part cooperates with the deformable part so that when the deformable part is deformed, the aforementioned measured quantity of the product passes from the predetermined space into the connecting means and toward the applicator, and when the deformable part is released a suction is formed in the predetermined space so that the measured quantity of product is drawn from the container into the predetermined space.

A device for dosaging measured quantities of liquid or semi-liquid cosmetic products from a removable container having a cosmetic product stored therein, the device comprising:

• a rod having at one end an applicator for applying the cosmetic product and at the other end a tubular portion, the tubular portion having a predetermined space formed therein corresponding to a measured quantity of product;
• an outer body having a sleeve part, the rod being disposed inside the outer body so that the applicator is capable of moving between a retracted position inside the sleeve part and an extended position outside the outer body to apply the cosmetic product;
• the outer body including means for receiving the removable container so that contact between air outside the removable container and the product inside the container is substantially prevented at all times;
• connecting means for connecting the sleeve part and the predetermined space so that the measured quantity of product can pass from the predetermined space through the connecting means to the applicator inside the sleeve part;
• and
• a deformable part associated with the rod for drawing the measured quantity of product from the removable container into the predetermined space;
• wherein the rod cooperates with the deformable part so that when the deformable part is deformed, the aforementioned measured quantity of the product passes from the predetermined space into the connecting means and toward the applicator in the sleeve part, and when the deformable part is released a suction is formed in the predetermined space so that the measured quantity of product is drawn from the container into the predetermined space.
