Apparatus for holding nail polish bottles
View Patent ↗A nail grooming apparatus comprising a flexible foam base having an upper surface and a lower surface. The upper surface has a plurality of slots configured thereon, the plurality of slots being adapted to each receive and secure therein a nail polish bottle in a utilization state of the nail polish bottle. The base of the nail grooming apparatus has an oval end view flat on the lower surface and convex on the upper surface, a bean shaped top view convex on one side and concave on the opposite side, and a banana shaped side view with a flattened bottom surface with upturned ends and a slightly concave upper surface. The top surface has an inner central oval area, the inner central oval area having a design feature.
1 . An apparatus for holding nail polish bottles, the apparatus comprising:
a spongy base having an upper surface and a lower surface,
the upper surface having a plurality of depressions disposed thereon,
wherein each depression of the plurality of depressions is adapted to receive and secure therein a nail polish bottle in a utilization state of the nail polish bottle,
where, in end view, the spongy base is substantially oval and comprises a flat portion on the lower surface and a convex portion on the upper surface, and
where, in top view, the spongy base is elongated and has a first side and a second side opposite the first side, where the first side is convex along its entirety and the second side comprises a single concave surface, and wherein the concave surface extends between a first and second depression of the plurality of depressions, and
where, in side view, the spongy base is elongated and comprises a partially flattened portion with upturned, convex ends along the lower surface and a slight concavity along the upper surface, and
wherein the upper surface has an inner central oval area, the inner central oval area having a design disposed thereon.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the first and second depression of the plurality of depressions are circular.
3 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein each depression of the plurality of depressions has a bevel where the upper surface of the spongy base adjoins the bevel.
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the spongy base is molded from soft polyurethane foam.
5 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the plurality of depressions are disposed within the inner central oval area.
6 . An apparatus for holding nail polish bottles, the apparatus comprising:
a base molded from soft polyurethane foam having an upper surface and a lower surface,
the upper surface having two spaced apart circular depressions disposed thereon, each depression having a bevel where the upper surface adjoins the depression, wherein the two depressions are adapted to each receive and secure therein a nail polish bottle in a utilization state of the nail polish bottle,
the base having a substantially oval shape in end view with a flat portion on the lower surface and a convex portion on the upper surface, and
where, in top view, the base is elongated and has a first side and a second side opposite the first side, where the first side is convex along its entirety and the second side comprises a single concave surface such that a concavity of the second side extends between the two depressions, and
where, in side view, the base is elongated and comprises a partially flattened portion on the lower surface with upturned, convex ends and a slight concavity on the upper surface, and
wherein the upper surface has an inner central oval area, the inner central oval area having a design disposed thereon, the two depressions being within the inner central oval area.
