Abstract
An applicator device comprising a casing, a storage compartment for a product to be applied, an application element comprising a ball held rotatably in a ball holder, a sealing element which is displaceable along a predetermined path between a first position with respect to the casing in which it bears sealingly against the ball and a second position with respect to the casing in which it releases the ball for application of the product, and an increased pressure-producing device for producing an increased pressure in the storage compartment, wherein the sealing element is coupled in a predetermined portion of the path to the increased pressure-producing device. The sealing element is independent of the increased pressure-producing device in a first portion of the path which is delimited by the first position.

An applicator device comprising
- a casing (10),
- a storage means (24) for a product (26) to be applied,
- an application means comprising a ball (20) held rotatably in a ball holder (21),
- a sealing means (16) which is displaceable along a predetermined path (74, 76, 78) between a first position with respect to the casing (10) in which it bears sealingly against the ball (20) and a second position with respect to the casing (10) in which it releases the ball (20) for application of the product (26), and
- an increased pressure-producing means (22, 30, 32, 34, 36) for producing an increased pressure in the storage means (24), wherein
- the sealing means (16) is coupled in a predetermined portion (76) of the path (74, 76, 78) to the increased pressure-producing means (22, 30, 32, 34, 36), wherein
- the sealing means (16) is independent of the increased pressure-producing means (22, 30, 32, 34, 36) in a first portion (74) of the path (74, 76, 78) which is delimited by the first position.
