Container for a fluid product
First Claim
1. A container for a fluid product comprises a top opening which is provided with a removable closure cap with an integrated brush-like applicator and into which is inserted a sleeve-like stripper provided with resilient strip-like stripping laps, the brush-like applicator being formed by an elongated stem having a first end integral with a central portion of a bottom of said cap, a brush being rigidly attached to a second end of said stem, an encircling indentation formed by conical tapers on either side proximate the first end of said stem, whereby the free ends of the strip-like stripping laps engage said indentation, with inside portions of said laps resting adjacent the uppermost conical taper, for retaining said laps partially inward from their fully open position when the closure cap is in place, whereby as said closure cap is removed the lowermost conical taper spreads said laps to the diameter of the underlying stem portion preparatory to closing upon said brush as it passes therebetween, and further including the ends of the stripping laps bearing resiliently against one another when the closure cap and brush are removed, for completely closing a passage cross-section of the sleeve-like stripper.

Abstract
A container for a free-flowing product, in particular a correcting fluid, has an opening provided with a removable closure cap with an integrated brush-shaped applicator. A sleeve-shaped stripper is positioned in the opening and includes stripping strips whose ends are elastically supported against each other and at least partially close the open cross section of the stripper. Product is perfectly dosed from the container even over a long time and losses of the volatile fraction of the product in the container are largely avoided when opening the container and removing product therefrom, via a brush-shaped applicator provided in the area of its stem with a continuous notch in which the free ends of the stripping strips are engaged when the closure cap is installed on the container.
