               Appellant’s invention relates to a device shown in                     
          Figures 1-5 for applying a pasty product, i.e., lipstick (B),               
          said device including a tubular element (1) with a slideway                 
          (2) for mounting a cup (3) which is intended to receive a                   
          stick of product (B), a cylindrical casing (11) having at                   
          least one helical slot (13) for accepting the stub (4) of the               
          cup (3), sleeve (14) for accepting therein the cylindrical                  
          casing (11) and a flexible bearing (F) provided between the                 
          cylindrical casing (11) and the tubular element (1).  The                   
          object of the invention is to provide a device that is                      
          relatively simple to produce, especially in regards to molding              
          and demolding operations and including a flexible bearing                   
          mechanism (F) that provides a good elastic self centering and               
          anti-vibration effect to better protect the pasty product                   
          against shock.  Representative claim 1 is set forth below.                  
                                          2
