ABSTRACT:
An improved applicator device is disclosed for applying an applicator liquid such as a chemical, a coating, a solvent or other suitable liquids to a surface. The device comprises a container for containing the applicator liquid and a tilt valve secured to the container. The tilt valve has a valve element normally biased into a closed position. The valve element inhibits the flow of the applicator liquid from the container when the valve element is in the closed position and permits the flow of the applicator liquid from the container when the valve element is tilted into an open position. A surface applicator has a proximal end for receiving the applicator liquid flowing through the tilt valve and has a distal end adapted to apply the applicator liquid to the surface. Means are provided for allowing a user to laterally move the surface applicator for enabling the proximal end of the surface applicator to tilt the valve element into the open position to permit the flow of the applicator liquid from the container to the proximal end to replenish the applicator liquid at the distal end of the surface applicator. The surface applicator may be a flexible applicator such as an applicator brush, a flexible fiber tip or the like which permits a user to disperse or paint the applicator liquid on a surface. The improved applicator device is suitable for dispensing a wide variety of liquid products including inks, dyes, paints, coatings, chemicals, insect repellants, perfumes, solvents and the like.
