技术问题语段:
The technical problem addressed in this patent is to provide a kit for an automated nail polish application apparatus that includes one or more nail polish capsules. The capsules are designed to be easily attached and detached from the apparatus without the need for a screwing mechanism, which simplifies the complexity and reduces the cost of the apparatus. The kit may also include a locking element to prevent movement of the detachable cover with respect to the body portion and allow for safe storage, shipping, and handling of the capsules.
技术功效语段:
The present invention relates to a kit for usage by an automated nail polish application apparatus. The kit includes one or more nail polish capsules, which are designed to be used with the automated nail polish application apparatus. The nail polish capsules have a body portion that contains nail polish fluid and a non-screw detachable cover with an integrated nail polish applying element. The non-screw detachable cover is mechanically coupled to the body portion to seal an opening in the upper face. The kit simplifies the process of applying nail polish, as the attachment/detachment of the detachable cover to the body portion is not required by a screwing mechanism. This reduces the complexity and cost of the nail polish application apparatus. The kit may be easily stored, shipped, and handled without compromising the sealing of the body portion. The locking element prevents movement of the detachable cover, ensuring sealing of the body portion.

6. The kit of claim 4, wherein said locking element comprises at least one removable clip, said at least one removable clip is removed by at least one of: detaching, moving, rotating, pressing, bending and breaking said at least one removable clip.
7. The kit of claim 2, wherein said locking element comprises a first magnet mechanically coupled to said body portion and a second magnet mechanically to said non-screw detachable cover, a magnetic field induced between said first magnet and said second magnet fastens said non-screw detachable cover to said body portion.
8. The kit of claim 2, wherein said locking element comprises a breakable adhesive material fastening said detachable cover to said upper face, said breakable adhesive material is breakable by at least one of: turning, bending, pushing and breaking said detachable cover.
9. The kit of claim 2, wherein said locking element comprises a breakable inner locking element fastening said detachable cover to said upper face, said breakable inner locking element is breakable by bending a neck section of said body portion.
10. The kit of claim 1, wherein said nail polish applying element comprises a stem and a dispensing head, a first end of said stem connects to a bottom face of said non- screw detachable cover and a second end of said stem connects to said dispensing head, wherein said stem protrudes into said body portion when said non-screw detachable cover is attached to said upper face.
11. The kit of claim 10, wherein said at least one nail polish capsule further comprising at least one sealing element mechanically coupled to at least one of: said upper face, a neck section of said body portion and said stem.
12. The kit of claim 10, wherein said dispensing head is constructed of at least one member of a group consisting of: a plurality of hair strands, an elastic tube, a solid pipe, a sponge, a wiper, a spray head and a combination of at least two thereof.
13. The kit of claim 10, further comprising a width of said stem is adapted to at least partially contact at least one inner circumferential wall of a neck section of said body portion to form a resting area for laying down said detachable cover integrated with said nail polish applying element in said body portion.
14. The kit of claim 1, further comprising said at least one nail polish capsule is wrapped in a sealed rippable foil sheet.
15. The kit of claim 1, wherein said nail polish fluid is a member selected from a group consisting of: a nail polish fluid, a base coating fluid, a top coating fluid, a drying material, a nail art polish fluid and a medical nail treatment fluid.
16. The kit of claim 1, wherein said non-screw detachable cover further comprising at least one mechanical mounting provision shaped for grasping said non- screw detachable cover by a mounting element of said nail polish application apparatus, said at least one mechanical mounting provision is a member of a group consisting of: a protrusion, a groove and a cavity.
17. The kit of claim 1, wherein said body portion further comprising at least one mechanical docking provision shaped for locking said body portion in a capsule compartment of said nail polish application apparatus, said at least one mechanical docking provision is a member of a group consisting of: a protrusion, a groove and a cavity.
18. A method for manufacturing a kit for usage by a nail polish application apparatus, comprising:
producing at least one nail polish capsule by:
producing a body portion defining a reservoir adapted to contain nail polish fluid,
producing a non-screw detachable cover having an integrated nail polish applying element,
inserting said nail polish fluid into said body portion, and
mechanically coupling said non- screw detachable cover to an upper face of said body portion to seal an opening in said upper face.
19. The method of claim 18, further comprising producing at least one sealing element and mechanically coupling said at least one sealing element to at least one of:
