Abstract

A device for applying a transferable substance in stick form, has a substance carrier and a protective sheath for the substance carrier, wherein the substance carrier can be shifted relative to the protective sheath in order for a free end region of the substance to be shifted into a free, projecting position, and also having a protective cap for covering the free end region of the substance in a not-in-use state. The protective sheath and the protective cap are accommodated in a casing part and the protective cap and the protective sheath is displaceable in a displacement direction in the casing part. The casing part has through-passage openings at its opposite ends, as seen in the displacement direction, and the protective cap is connected to the casing part such that it is movable in the displacement direction, but is captive.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A device ( 1 ) for applying a transferable substance ( 3 ) in stick form, with a substance carrier ( 17 ) and a protective sheath ( 18 ) for the substance carrier ( 17 ), wherein the substance carrier ( 17 ) is configured to be shifted relative to the protective sheath ( 18 ) in order to shift a free end region of the substance ( 3 ) into a free, projecting position, and further with a protective cap ( 4 ) for covering a free end region of the substance ( 3 ) in a non-use state, wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) and protective cap ( 4 ) are accommodated in a casing part ( 5 ), and the protective cap ( 4 ) and protective sheath ( 18 ) are configured to be shifted in a displacement direction (r) in the casing part ( 5 ), wherein the casing part ( 5 ) has passage openings ( 6 and 7 ) at its opposite ends as viewed in the displacement direction (r), and wherein the protective cap ( 4 ) is connected with the casing part ( 5 ) so that the protective cap can move in the displacement direction (r), wherein the protective cap is held captive to the casing part, wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) has a peripheral enlargement ( 26 ) over a portion of its length for a frictional interaction with an inner surface of the casing part ( 5 ), wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) has a moving part ( 19 ) for the substance ( 3 ) and wherein the peripheral enlargement is formed on the moving part ( 19 ).

2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein a combined length (b and c) of the protective sheath ( 18 ) connected with the protective cap ( 4 ) is larger than the length (a) of the casing part ( 5 ) in the displacement direction (r).

3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the casing part ( 5 ) is designed as a cylinder.

4. A device ( 1 ) for applying a transferable substance ( 3 ) in stick form, with a substance carrier ( 17 ) and a protective sheath ( 18 ) for the substance carrier ( 17 ), wherein the substance carrier ( 17 ) is configured to be shifted relative to the protective sheath ( 18 ) in order to shift a free end region of the substance ( 3 ) into a free, projecting position, and further with a protective cap ( 4 ) for covering a free end region of the substance ( 3 ) in a non-use state, wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) and protective cap ( 4 ) are accommodated in a casing part ( 5 ), and the protective cap ( 4 ) and protective sheath ( 18 ) are configured to be shifted in a displacement direction (r) in the casing part ( 5 ), wherein the casing part ( 5 ) has passage openings ( 6 and 7 ) at its opposite ends as viewed in the displacement direction (r), and wherein the protective cap ( 4 ) is connected with the casing part ( 5 ) so that the protective cap can move in the displacement direction (r), wherein the protective cap is held captive to the casing part, wherein an edge of the protective sheath ( 18 ) pushes against an edge of a cap wall of the protective cap ( 4 ) allowing for a transfer of a movement of the cap ( 4 ) into a movement of the protective sheath ( 19 ), wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) has a peripheral enlargement ( 26 ) over a portion of its length for a frictional interaction with an inner surface of the casing part ( 5 ).

5. The device according to claim 4 , wherein a combined length (b and c) of the protective sheath ( 18 ) connected with the protective cap ( 4 ) is larger than the length (a) of the casing part ( 5 ) in the displacement direction (r).

6. The device according to claim 4 , wherein the casing part ( 5 ) is designed as a cylinder.

7. The device according to claim 4 , wherein the protective sheath ( 18 ) has a moving part ( 19 ) for the substance ( 3 ).

8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the peripheral enlargement is formed on the moving part ( 19 ).
