ABSTRACT:
A dispensing holder for lipstick and the like, comprising an essentially cylindrical casing having an opening at one end containing a product-carrying cup which is movable between advanced and retracted positions. A flexible pushpull actuator strap disposed in the casing has one end connected to the cup to actuate the same, and has at its other end a concavo-convex closure member of arcuate cross section. A finger piece extends through a longitudinal slot in the casing and is connected to the strap. The cup, strap and closure member are guided and controlled by an internal guide member which is closely confined within the casing, all in such a manner that the casing can be completely cylindrical. The push-pull strap, when operated by the finger piece, can advance or retract the cup and the product contained therein, and simultaneously effect retracting or advancing movement, respectively of the closure member. The top end of the casing has a lip or rim characterized by a pair of opposite convex portions joined to each other by a pair of opposite concave portions, whereby the rim lies in a curved, undulating surface. The closure member is similarly curved such that when the latter is in the closed or sealing position, an especially effective, substantially tight seal is realized whereby the likelihood of contamination of the product stick by debris and the like is greatly minimized.
