Motorized rotating and/or oscillating applicator

1. An applicator comprising:

an upper housing;

a rotating and/or oscillating applicator head;

a motor coupled to the upper housing, the motor having a shaft defining a longitudinal axis, the shaft coupled to the applicator head;

a controller configured to oscillate the applicator head by oscillating the shaft while rotating the applicator head by rotating the shaft;

a switch electrically coupled to the motor comprising a switch housing and an actuator, the switch housing coupled to the upper housing; and

a lower housing removably coupled to and adjacent to the upper housing.

2. The applicator of claim 1 , the actuator being internally coupled to the lower housing for activating the motor when the lower housing is rotated relative to the upper housing.

3. The applicator of claim 2 , the controller further configured to provide power to the motor when the lower housing is rotated a first direction relative to the upper housing and/or remove power from the motor when the lower housing is rotated a second direction relative to the upper housing, the first direction being opposite to the second direction.

4. The applicator of claim 3 , further comprising a throttling gear or a rheostat connectively coupled to the upper housing and the motor, the throttling gear or the rheostat being configured to vary a rotational frequency of the motor based on a turning angle of the lower housing relative to the upper housing.

5. The applicator of claim 4 , the controller or the rheostat further configured to control the throttling gear to increase the rotational frequency of the motor as the turning angle of the lower housing increases relative to the upper housing.

6. The applicator of claim 2 , the actuator further configured to activate the motor when the lower housing is depressed into the upper housing.

7. The applicator of claim 6 , the controller further configured to provide power to the motor when the lower housing is depressed into the upper housing while the motor is off and/or remove power from the motor when the lower housing is depressed into the upper housing while the motor is on.

8. The applicator of claim 1 , the actuator comprising a toggle exposed to a user.

9. The applicator of claim 1 , the actuator comprising a pushbutton exposed to a user.

10. The applicator of claim 1 , the lower housing comprising a snap retention mechanism for snapping-on and/or snapping-off of the upper housing.

11. The applicator of claim 1 , further comprising a battery reservoir within the upper housing, the battery reservoir electrically coupled to the motor and/or the switch.

12. The applicator of claim 1 , the applicator head comprising an applicator brush or a sponge applicator.

13. An applicator device for applying a product to a surface, the applicator device comprising:

an upper housing;

an applicator head;

a battery powered motor for rotating the applicator head, the motor coupled to the upper housing and having a shaft defining a longitudinal axis, the shaft being coupled to the applicator head;

a controller configured to oscillate the applicator head by oscillating the shaft while rotating the applicator head by rotating the shaft;

a lower housing removably coupled to the upper housing by a snap retention mechanism;

a switch electrically coupled to the motor comprising a switch housing and an actuator, the switch housing being coupled to the upper housing and the actuator being coupled to the lower housing; and

a throttling gear connectively coupled to the upper housing and the motor, the throttling gear configured to control a rotational frequency of the motor, the motor configured to rotate and/or oscillate the applicator head by rotating and/or oscillating the shaft.

14. The applicator device of claim 13 , the applicator head comprising an applicator brush or a sponge applicator.

15. The applicator device of claim 13 , wherein the controller is configured to activate the motor when the lower housing is rotated relative to the upper housing.

16. The applicator device of claim 13 , the snap retention mechanism comprising a collar disposed in the upper housing and a complimentary member disposed in, on, or about the lower housing.

17. An applicator comprising:

an upper housing;

a rotating and/or oscillating applicator head;

a motor coupled to the upper housing, the motor having a shaft defining a longitudinal axis, the shaft coupled to the applicator head;

a controller configured to oscillate the applicator head by oscillating the shaft while rotating the applicator head by rotating the shaft;

a switch electrically coupled to the motor comprising a switch housing and an actuator, the switch housing coupled to the upper housing; and

a lower housing removably coupled to the upper housing;

the actuator being internally coupled to the lower housing such that rotating the lower housing relative to the upper housing activates the motor.

18. The applicator of claim 17 , wherein the controller is further configured to provide power to the motor when the lower housing is rotated a first direction relative to the upper housing and/or remove power from the motor when the lower housing is rotated a second direction relative to the upper housing, the first direction being opposite the second direction.

19. The applicator of claim 17 , further comprising a throttling gear or a rheostat connectively coupled to the upper housing and the motor, the throttling gear or the rheostat being configured to vary a rotational frequency of the motor based on a turning angle of the lower housing relative to the upper housing.

20. The applicator of claim 19 , wherein the controller or the rheostat is configured to control the throttling gear to increase the rotational frequency of the motor as the turning angle of the lower housing increases relative to the upper housing.

21. The applicator of claim 17 , further comprising a battery reservoir within the upper housing, the battery reservoir being electrically coupled to the motor and/or switch.
