Title:
Applicator
Abstract:
An applicator adapted to neatly apply lotions, medicaments, and the like to the skin of a user reaches the entire back area of the user by hand manipulation of an elongated stem or handle pivotally connected to a head carrying an absorbent pad which is saturated with the lotion or medicament. The hands or clothing of the user need not contact the pad. A removable lid or cover on the head protects the saturated pad from contaminants, minimizes evaporation of the lotion, and isolates the pad to prevent the lotion from soiling surrounding material during non-use of the applicator. The stem or handle has telescoping sections extensible to a desired length and an eccentric lock secures the telescoped sections in fixed position. A stop limits the pivoting of the handle on the head to maintain a pushing angle relative to the head. The head and handle are separable to provide a compact knock-down package and to accommodate replacement of the head.
