Abstract:
1. A device for applying a flowable substance, said device comprising: an outer shell forming a receptacle for a flowable substance, said outer shell having a first hollow cylindrical segment made of a rigid plastics material and a second hollow cylindrical segment made of an elastomeric plastics material, an end of said first segment being integrally joined to an end of said second segment forming a two-component hollow cylinder defining said receptacle; and at least one portionally cylindrical insert having an application tip and being open at one end and closed at another end, said insert further including a shell having at least one orifice connected to the open end, wherein the outer shell is shiftable in relation to the insert between a blocked position, in which a fluid flow of the flowable substance between the outer shell and the insert is blocked by a sealing device, and an activated position, in which the flowable substance flows from the outer shell upon compression of the second segment of the outer shell made of the elastomeric plastic material, into the orifice, and out of the insert open end, wherein the insert has a screw thread mating with the first segment of the outer shell requiring twisting of the insert in relation to the outer shell to move the insert between the blocked position and the activated position, the insert comprising a collar ring acting as a stop for the insert at the outer shell and as an actuator for shifting the outer shell in relation to the insert, said collar ring including a cylindrical gripping surface for grasping by a user to twist the insert relative to the outer shell.
