More Information
Summary:The container (1) comprises an inner tube (3) open at at least one end (2) which contains the spreadable product (4), which is removably mounted in an outer tube (5) and which comprises a plunger (12) designed to be penetrated by a screwthreaded spindle (15) and means (6) for securing the inner tube (3) in the outer tube (5). The screwthreaded spindle (15) and the plunger (12) form cooperating means (11,14) for applying the spreadable product (4). By rotation of the screwthreaded spindle (15), which engages in a screwthread (13) formed within the plunger (12), by means of an actuating element (21) arranged outside the outer tube (5), more particularly a hand-operated knurled nut (20), the spreadable product (4) can be longitudinally displaced inside the container (1) with no change in the positions of the outer and inner tubes (5,3) relative to one another. The screw- threaded spindle (15) is rotatably fixed to the inner tube (3) in a position in which it penetrates through the plunger (12) and comprises a connecting part (17) which, in particular, projects from the inner tube (3) and which is designed to be releasably, but non-rotatably coupled to a corresponding connecting part (20) of the actuating element (21). The replacement of the inner tube is considerably facilitated.
