Abstract:
1. An applicator device for a free-flowing substance comprising: a carrier body provided with an application device at one end and a pin at an opposing end; a transverse channel penetrating the pin; an axial channel branching off from the transverse channel and leading to the application device; and a reservoir device having a ring-shaped edge seal sealingly engaging the pin, said pin being fully extendible into only a portion of said reservoir device, whereby the applicator device is activated by fully extending said pin into the reservoir device toward the application device to open a flow connection between the reservoir device and the transverse channel without discharging the free-flowing substance via the application device, the reservoir device having a receptacle segment that is sufficiently elastically deformable at least in portions so that, when the applicator device is activated and a flow connection between the transverse channel and the receptacle segment exists, the free-flowing substance is discharged via the application device by manual compression of the elastically deformable area of the receptacle segment.
