Wax container kit for auto detailing

Abstract

A wax container kit for auto detailing according to this invention comprises a wax container sealed with a disposable cap along with a second vacuum cap. Both the wax container and vacuum cap are displayed in a transparent plastic container. After opening the wax container and dispensing the wax, the disposable cap is thrown away and replaced with the vacuum cap. The vacuum cap comprises means for creating negative pressure inside the wax container to preserve the wax.

1 . A wax container kit for auto detailing comprising: 
 (a) a package means comprising a transparent plastic cover defining a first and a second hollow compartments;    (b) a container comprising a threaded neck opening, the container disposed within the first hollow compartment;    (c) a wax suitable for auto detailing disposed inside the container;    (d) a disposable cap threadably affixed to the threaded neck opening;    (e) a vacuum cap disposed within the second hollow compartment, the vacuum cap comprising: 
 an elongated body comprising a closed top portion and an open threaded bottom portion for mating with the threaded neck opening;  
 a membrane disposed within the elongated body above the threaded bottom portion substantially perpendicular to the elongated body's axis, the membrane comprising a plurality of openings sized to permit passage of air but to prevent penetration of the wax;  
 a piston slideably disposed within the elongated body above the membrane;  
 a piston rod comprising a first end connected to the piston and a second end connected to a handle for actuating the piston;  
 a top opening disposed substantially in the center of the closed top portion slideably receiving the piston rod, such that the handle is disposed outside the elongated body; 
 a flapper valve disposed in the piston;  
 a vent disposed near the closed top portion;  
 
 wherein the disposable cap is for disposing after opening the container and replacing with the vacuum cap such that the vacuum cap is threadably affixed to the threaded neck opening, wherein the downward movement of the piston causes the flapper valve to open, permitting the air displaced by the piston to be evacuated through the flapper valve and wherein the upward movement of the piston causes the flapper valve to close, causing the air displaced by the piston to be evacuated through the vent and creating negative pressure inside the container.  
   
   
   
       2 . A wax container kit for auto detailing comprising: 
 (a) a package means comprising a transparent plastic cover defining a first and a second hollow compartments;    (b) a container comprising a threaded neck opening, the container disposed within the first hollow compartment;    (c) a wax suitable for auto detailing disposed inside the container;    (d) a disposable cap threadably affixed to the threaded neck opening;    (e) a vacuum cap disposed within the second hollow compartment, the vacuum cap comprising: 
 an elongated body comprising a closed top portion and an open threaded bottom portion for mating with the threaded neck opening;  
 a membrane disposed within the elongated body above the threaded bottom portion substantially perpendicular to the elongated body's axis, the membrane comprising a plurality of openings sized to permit passage of air but to prevent penetration of the wax;  
 a vent disposed near the closed top portion;  
 a vacuum pump disposed within the elongated body above the membrane, the vacuum pump comprising: 
 an inlet sleeve disposed near the membrane for sucking air from the container;  
 an outlet sleeve in communication with the vent for evacuating air from the container;  
 a DC motor for actuating the vacuum pump;  
 a DC battery supplying power for the DC motor;  
 a switch disposed on the elongated body that can be placed in an on or off position, wherein placing the switch in the on position causes the DC motor to be switched on, whereas placing the switch in the off position causes the DC motor to be switched off;  
 
   wherein the disposable cap is for disposing after opening the container and replacing with the vacuum cap such that the vacuum cap is threadably affixed to the threaded neck opening, wherein actuating the vacuum pump causes the air to be evacuated from the container creating negative pressure inside the container.
