A tampon applicator having an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve (152), which is displaceable therein, is provided with an axial longitudinal slit (155) and encloses a tampon (153). A retention element (160) is connected to outer sleeve (151) and projects through longitudinal slit (155) of inner sleeve (152), and lies against rear end of tampon (153). When inner sleeve (152) is with-drawn out of outer sleeve (151), tampon (153) is held in place by retention element (160) and transferred into outer sleeve (151). Retention element (160) is provided with one part of a locking mechanism (203, 204), the outer part of which is formed by one of said sleeves (151,152). Aforesaid locking parts interact in such a way that retention element (160) is locked in its engaged position bent into inner sleeve (152). Transfer of tampon (153) out of inner sleeve (152) into outer sleeve (151) is thereby ensured when tampon applicator is utilized, and a simple, economic mass production of the tampon applicator is ensured.

Un applicateur de tampon comportant un manchon extérieur et un manchon intérieur (152), mobile à l'intérieur dudit manchon extérieur, comporte une fente longitudinale axiale (155), et renferme un tampon (153). Un élément de rétention (160) est relié au manchon extérieur (151), avance dans la fente longitudinale (155) du manchon intérieur (152), et repose contre l'extrémité arrière du tampon (153). Lorsque le manchon intérieur (152) est retiré du manchon extérieur (151), le tampon (153) est maintenu en place par un élément de rétention (160), et transféré dans le manchon extérieur (151). L'élément de rétention (160) comporte une partie d'un mécanisme de verrouillage (203, 204), dont l'autre partie est formée par un des manchons (151, 152). Les parties de verrouillage précitées coopèrent, de sorte que l'élément de rétention (160) est bloqué dans sa position engagée, où il est plié dans le manchon intérieur (152). Le transfert du tampon (153) du manchon intérieur (152) au manchon extérieur (151) est ainsi assuré, grâce à cet applicateur de tampon, qui peut être produit en série de manière simple et économique.
