Abstract:
1. A liquid applicator comprising: a barrel body with an opening for holding a content liquid therein; a front barrel; a valve set held and fixed between the opening of the barrel body and the front barrel; an application body, integrally formed of an application core, a holder for the application core and an ink feed pipe, and disposed inside the front barrel, the application body being urged by a spring to a front end side of the applicator, slidable in an axial direction and slidable in the valve set, the ink feed pipe being sealed by a packing inside the valve set; a cap fitted to the front barrel and having a sealing part with the application body; and, a click button arranged on a peripheral side of the front barrel to open and close the valve set, and wherein an inclined portion formed in the click button is engaged with an application body projection provided for the application body in such a manner that the application body moves forward and backward in the axial direction of the barrel body as the click button moves up and down from the peripheral side of the front barrel in a radial direction of the front barrel, the application body that is urged to the applicator front end side slides to the applicator front end side when the cap is released, and upon this, the click button is actuated in linkage by an inclined part of the click button being pushed by the application body projection so that the click button moves up and juts out from the peripheral side of the front barrel and the valve set opens at approximately the same time, upon usage, when the jutting click button is pushed and released, the application body is slid in the axial direction by the abutment between the inclined part of the click button and the application body projection so as to be able to open and close the valve set, and, when the cap is closed, the application body that is urged to the applicator front end side is slid to the barrel body side, and another inclined part of the click button pushes another projection of the application body so that the click button moves down in linkage therewith and retracts into the front barrel, and the valve set is closed at the same time.
