MUMBAI, India, July 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517057203 A) filed by Cilag Gmbh International, Zug, Switzerland, on June 13, for 'device for spreading topical skin adhesive.'
Inventor(s) include Perkins, Jason T.; Miller, Grant S.; Souls, Doug; and Rousseau, Robert A.
The application for the patent was published on July 4, under issue no. 27/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An apparatus includes a proximal body portion configured to be gripped by a user, a distal body portion that terminates at a spreading tip configured to spread a topical skin adhesive along an application surface, and a flexural body portion that interconnects the proximal and distal body portions to define a monolithic body. In response to an input force applied by a user to the proximal body portion when the spreading tip is positioned against the application surface, the flexural body portion is configured to buckle non-uniformly along a lateral width of the apparatus. Additionally, or alternatively, the flexural body portion is configured to elastically deform so that the distal body portion angularly deflects relative to the proximal body portion to thereby limit to a predetermined range a resultant normal force exerted by the spreading tip on the topical skin adhesive along the application surface."
The patent application was internationally filed on Nov. 21, 2023, under International application No.PCT/IB2023/061727.
