| 20090148225 | Tube With Resilient Applicator For Dispensing Texture Materials - A system for applying texture material to a destination surface comprising a textured portion formed by a spray system and an untextured portion comprises a container and a sponge assembly. The container is flexible such that applying deliberate manual force to the container forces the texture material onto an applicator surface defined by the sponge assembly. The sponge member is resilient. When the container member is displaced along a dispensing axis towards and away from the destination surface with the applicator surface substantially parallel to the destination surface, at least a portion of the texture material on the applicator comes into contact with the untextured portion of the destination surface to transfer texture material from the applicator surface to the destination surface. At least a portion of an exposed portion of the particulate material stands out from and is visually perceptible on the untextured portion of the destination surface. The texture material forms a coat of new texture material that substantially matches an appearance of the textured portion of the destination surface formed by the spray system. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20120177433 | Reusable applicator tip - An applicator tip formed of a cup-shaped cap is threadedly attached to the threaded neck of a bottle containing a liquid material such as an adhesive. A hole is formed in the center of the base of the cap. A tubular spout, connected to the base, extends into the neck and passes liquid from the bottle through the spout and hole and into a porous pad that is attached to the base and extends over the hole for application to a surface. A ring-shaped, continuous, flange, formed integral with the inner surface of the base of the cap and surrounding the spout is spaced uniformly inwardly of the interior threaded wall of the cap. The flange is formed in a wedge shape which provides an inverted wedge-shaped annular space between the flange and the threads of the cap. The flange is sufficiently resilient to press radially outwardly against the bottle neck when the neck is threadedly connected upon the cap and thereby arranged within the tapered annular space to seal against liquid escaping over the rim of the neck into the threads of the neck and cap so that the cap may be easily removed from the bottle and reapplied to another bottle. | 07-12-2012 |
