Reusable deodorant stick device

Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosed invention relate to a deodorant stick device to store, transport, or apply a deodorant composition. The deodorant stick device may be refilled with a deodorant composition when empty. The deodorant stick device may include a plurality of components, such as a body, a base, a handle, a cover, and a cartridge adapter. The plurality of components may engage/disengage with each other through mechanical or magnetic means. The deodorant stick device may be configured to linearly displace a deodorant composition along the length of a cartridge adapter by rotating a rigid member of the handle.

1 . A deodorant stick device to apply a deodorant composition to a surface of a human body, the deodorant stick device comprising:
 a body component configured to contain a deodorant composition;   a base component configured to couple a first end of the body component to a first surface of the base component;   a handle component that includes a shaft extending from a rigid member, the handle component configured to couple to a second surface of the base component by extending the shaft through a first hole positioned on the base component and engaging a cartridge adapter; and   a cover component configured to couple to a second end of the body component.   
     
     
         2 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the cartridge adapter couples to the shaft and is positioned approximately opposite the handle component. 
     
     
         3 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the base component is positioned along the shaft component between the handle component and the cartridge adapter. 
     
     
         4 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the cartridge adapter is configured to engage a cartridge component. 
     
     
         5 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 4 , wherein the cartridge adapter is configured to impart a rotational force on the cartridge component using the handle component. 
     
     
         6 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , the body component further comprising:
 an elongate body extending between the first end and the second end;   a first aperture positioned at the first end;   a second aperture positioned at the second end; and   a channel extending between the first and the second along the length of the elongate body.   
     
     
         7 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the first hole extends between the first surface of the base component and a second surface of the base component, wherein the second surface is positioned opposite the first surface. 
     
     
         8 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 6 , wherein the elongate body includes a first thickness and a second thickness. 
     
     
         9 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 4 , the cartridge component further comprising:
 a cartridge base component configured to couple the cartridge component to the base component;   a rotatable cartridge component configured to engage the cartridge adapter;   a cartridge shaft extending from a top surface of the rotatable cartridge component, wherein the cartridge shaft includes a shaft thread that extends substantially along the length of the cartridge shaft from a first cartridge shaft end to a second cartridge shaft end; and   a cartridge platform positioned along the cartridge shaft, wherein the cartridge shaft extends through a threaded hole positioned on the cartridge platform.   
     
     
         10 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 9 , wherein the cartridge platform is displaced linearly along the length of the cartridge shaft when the body component is coupled to the base component and the handle component is rotated. 
     
     
         11 - 20 . (canceled) 
     
     
         21 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the body component includes a first magnet proximate to the first end, and wherein the base component includes a second magnet proximate to the first surface. 
     
     
         22 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 1 , wherein the handle component includes an electrical component coupled to the shaft and positioned within the rigid member. 
     
     
         23 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 22 , wherein the electrical component is a motor configured to rotate the shaft about a central axis. 
     
     
         24 . The deodorant stick device of  claim 23 , wherein the base component includes an outer surface having a first button and a second button electrically coupled to the motor, wherein the first button rotates the motor in a first direction, and the second button rotates the motor in a second direction.
