20100249742 | COMPARTMENTALIZED INDIVIDUAL PACKAGE FOR ABSORBENT ARTICLES - An individually packaged absorbent article including an absorbent article and a package. The package can also have a dispensing compartment substantially enclosing the absorbent article prior to use that can have an opening provided to access the absorbent article. The package can also have a disposal compartment separate from the dispensing compartment. The disposal compartment can have a cavity adapted to receive at least a portion of an absorbent article after use and an opening provided to access the cavity that is separate from the dispensing compartment opening. | 09-30-2010 |
20110190685 | APPLICATOR HAVING A COLOR GRADIENT - An applicator having a color gradient. The applicator includes an outer member having a first end, a second end disposed opposite the first end, a longitudinal axis, a length measured along the longitudinal axis, and an exterior surface. The outer member further includes a color gradient extending along at least a portion of the length from a first region to a second region, the color gradient being visible by a user viewing the exterior surface of the outer member. | 08-04-2011 |
20110190687 | APPLICATOR HAVING IMPROVED SURFACE ELEMENTS - An applicator for a feminine hygiene device. The applicator includes an insertion member that can have an outer surface, an insertion end, a withdrawal end opposite the insertion end, a barrel region adapted to house the feminine hygiene device, and a grip region disposed proximate the withdrawal end. In certain embodiments, the grip region can include one or more three-dimensional surface elements protruding from the grip region. In addition, the barrel region can include one or more two-dimensional surface elements. | 08-04-2011 |
20110316196 | SCALABLE INJECTION MOLDING SYSTEMS - Scalable injection molding systems comprise a molding press and at least one delivery system. Each delivery system comprises an injection unit and a manifold. The scalable injection molding system further comprises at least one molding face pair having a cavity face and an opposing core face. Each scalable injection molding system comprises at least one scalable system selected from the group consisting of a scalable face-number system with respect to numbers of active mold face pairs in the scalable injection molding system and a scalable cavitation system with respect to numbers of functional mold cavities on each mold face pair. Both the scalable face-number system and the scalable cavitation system allow the output of the scalable injection molding system to be increased or decreased according to needs of the operator, without requiring costly reconfiguration, retooling, replacement, or unnecessary duplication of standard mold components. | 12-29-2011 |
20110318518 | INJECTION MOLDING APPARATUS AND METHODS AND PRODUCTS PRODUCED THEREFROM - A product formed by high velocity injection molding. The product may include a body portion formed of a polymer-based resin, wherein upon being formed by high velocity injection molding, the body portion has a gate position, a last fill position, a flow length to wall thickness ratio greater than or equal to about 200, wherein the flow length is measured from the gate position to the last fill position, and a wall thickness less than or equal to about 1 millimeter, wherein the polymer-based resin has a melt flow index less than or equal to about 1000 grams/10 minutes. | 12-29-2011 |
20130170886 | Containers for Dispensing Personal Care Product - A container is configured for selectively dispensing a personal care product. The container includes a body, a drive apparatus, and an elevator. The body at least partially defines a product chamber and a distal opening. The elevator is disposed within the product chamber. Rotation of the drive apparatus results in axial movement of the elevator within the product chamber. | 07-04-2013 |
20130217960 | APPLICATOR HAVING A COLOR GRADIENT - An applicator having a color gradient. The applicator includes an outer member having a first end, a second end disposed opposite the first end, a longitudinal axis, a length measured along the longitudinal axis, and an exterior surface. The outer member further includes a color gradient extending along at least a portion of the length from a first region to a second region, the color gradient being visible by a user viewing the exterior surface of the outer member. | 08-22-2013 |
