Abstract
A liquid applicator includes an elongated hollowing body having opposed first and second open ends in fluid communication with one another, and a tip attached to the first open end and including a porous material. A closed, frangible ampule is supported within the second open end of the body and contains a liquid to be disposed.
Claims1
A liquid applicator comprising:
- a flexible elongated tubular hollow body having an opposed first and second open end;
- said elongated tubular hollow body having in axial alignment two frangible ampules, said ampules each being filled with medicaments to be dispensed;
- said ampules being axially physically separated from each other by a cylindrical plug;
- said plug isolates said ampules from each other whereby when a wall of said hollow body proximate one ampule is compressed to shatter that particular ampule the other ampule is not simultaneously affected and shattered;
- said first open end of said hollow body having a sponge disc;
- said second open end of said hollow body having a sponge disc;
- said first end having an axially extending first conduit having a distal end which termintes in a tip, said conduit adapted and constructed for liquid distribution therethrough from said hollow body and out of said tip;
- said second end having an axially extending second conduit having a distal end which terminates in a tip, said conduit adapted and constructed for liquid distribution therethrough from said hollow body and out of said tip;
- the first and second conduits are fabricated from an injection molded thermoplastic material and the said tip of each conduit is a distribution dauber;
- at least one of said conduits and said tips are serially molded of thermoplastic materials having different physical properties whereby at least one of said conduits and said tips are integral.
