The invention provides a tampon insertion device comprising a tampon applicator having a first end and a second end and a covering that is removably attached to the tampon applicator. The covering covers the tampon applicator at its first end prior to use of the tampon applicator. The covering has at least a pair of compression areas that are oppositely opposed to one another and also a pair of covering areas that are oppositely opposed to one another. The compression areas, where no material exists, allow the covering areas to flex toward one another to either touch together or nearly touch together. This flexing is important because the covering, once removed, is then used as a plunger to expel a tampon residing within the tampon applicator from the tampon applicator. In practice, the covering is removed from the tampon applicator and inserted through the second end of the tampon applicator for expulsion of a tampon during use of the tampon applicator.

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'insertion de tampon qui comprend un applicateur de tampon présentant une première et une deuxième extrémité et une garniture reliée amovible à l'applicateur de tampon. La garniture couvre l'applicateur de tampon sur sa première extrémité avant l'utilisation de l'applicateur de tampon ; elle comporte au moins une paire de zones de compression opposées l'une à l'autre ainsi qu'une paire de zones de couverture opposées l'une à l'autre. Aux endroits où il n'y a pas de matériau, les zones de compression permettent aux zones de couverture de s'incurver l'une vers l'autre jusqu'à se toucher ou presque. Cette incurvation est importante, car la garniture, une fois ôtée, sert alors de plongeur pour expulser de l'applicateur de tampon un tampon s'y trouvant. Dans la pratique, la garniture est ôtée de l'applicateur de tampon et insérée à travers la deuxième extrémité de l'applicateur de tampon afin d'expulser un tampon pendant l'utilisation de l'applicateur de tampon.
