A device for applying controlled unitized doses of a flowable material to a surface is disclosed. The device includes a tubular body and a plunger. The body has a wall defining a cavity, and the body has a first open end and an opposite second end having a dispensing orifice. A flowable material is contained in the cavity of the body. The plunger has an outer sleeve dimensioned for surrounding at least a section the body and an inner pushing structure dimensioned for axial movement in the cavity of the body. The device has means for indexed positioning of the second end of the body and an inner end of the inner pushing structure of the plunger relative to each other to provide controlled unitized doses of the flowable material to a surface when the plunger is moved toward the body by a user's hand.

What is claimed is: 1. A device for applying controlled doses of a flowable adhesive material to a surface, the device comprising: a tubular body having a wall defining a cavity, the body having a first open end and an opposite second end having a dispensing orifice; a flowable adhesive material in the cavity; a plunger having an outer sleeve dimensioned for surrounding at least a section the body and having an inner pushing structure dimensioned for axial movement in the cavity; and means for indexed positioning of the second end of the body and an inner end of the inner pushing structure of the plunger relative to each other to provide controlled doses of the flowable adhesive material such that the controlled doses of the flowable adhesive material may be applied to the surface when the plunger is moved toward the dispensing orifice, and wherein the means for indexed positioning comprises a guide track and a guide pin that travels stepwise in the guide track, one of the guide track and the guide pin being located on an outer surface of the body and the other of the guide track and the guide pin being located on the outer sleeve of the plunger. 2. The device of claim 1 wherein: an end of the outer sleeve of the plunger is outwardly flaring. 3. The device of claim 1 wherein: the dispensing orifice is circular, oval, ellipse or polygonal. 4. The device of claim 1 wherein: the second end of the body has an end wall having a concave inner surface, and the inner end of the pushing structure of the plunger has a convex outer surface that substantially conforms to the concave inner surface of the end wall of the second end of the body. 5. The device of claim 1 wherein: the guide pin is movably attached to the outer surface of the body and the guide track is located on the outer sleeve of the plunger, the guide track comprising a plurality of aligned throughholes dimensioned to receive the guide pin. 6. The device of claim 1 wherein: the means for indexed positioning further comprises means for creating a sound as the guide pin travels stepwise in the guide track. 7. The device of claim 1 wherein: the pushing structure includes a pushing frame and a separate piston head, and the pushing frame engages the piston head. 8. The device of claim 1 wherein: the pushing structure includes a separate piston, and an inner surface of the pushing structure engages the piston. 9. The device of claim 1 wherein: the body includes a shroud that extends away from the second end of the body and surrounds the dispensing orifice, the shroud being radially outwardly spaced from the dispensing orifice. 10. A device for dispensing controlled doses of a flowable material, the device comprising: a tubular body having a wall defining a cavity suitable for holding the flowable material, the body having a first open end and an opposite second end having a dispensing orifice; a plunger having an outer sleeve dimensioned for surrounding at least a section the body and having an inner pushing structure dimensioned for axial movement in the cavity; and means for indexed positioning of the second end of the body and an inner end of the inner pushing structure of the plunger relative to each other to provide controlled doses of the flowable material when the plunger is moved toward the dispensing orifice, wherein the means for indexed positioning comprises a guide track and a guide pin that travels stepwise in the guide track, one of the guide track and the guide pin being located on the body and the other of the guide track and the guide pin being located on the outer sleeve of the plunger. 11. The device of claim 10 wherein: an end of the outer sleeve of the plunger is outwardly flaring. 12. The device of claim 10 wherein: the dispensing orifice is circular, oval, ellipse or polygonal. 13. The device of claim 10 wherein: the second end of the body has an end wall having a concave inner surface, and the inner end of the pushing structure of the plunger has a convex outer surface that substantially conforms to the concave inner surface of the end wall of the second end of the body. 14. The device of claim 10 wherein: the guide pin is movably attached to an outer surface of the body and the guide track is located on the outer sleeve of the plunger, the guide track comprising a plurality of aligned throughholes dimensioned to receive the guide pin. 15. The device of claim 10 wherein: the means for indexed positioning further comprises means for creating a sound as the guide pin indexes in the guide track. 16. The device of claim 10 wherein: the pushing structure includes a pushing frame and a separate piston head, and the pushing frame engages the piston head. 17. The device of claim 10 wherein: the pushing structure includes a separate piston, and an inner surface of the pushing structure engages the piston. 18. The device of claim 10 wherein: the body includes a shroud that extends away from the second end of the body and surrounds the dispensing orifice, the shroud being radially outwardly spaced from the dispensing orifice. 19. A refill for a device for dispensing controlled doses of a flowable material, the device including a plunger having an outer sleeve with a guide track comprising throughholes in the outer sleeve, the refill comprising: a tubular body having a wall defining a cavity, the body having a first open end and an opposite second end having a dispensing orifice, the body having an inwardly movable guide pin attached to an outer surface of the body; and a flowable material in the cavity, wherein the guide pin is dimensioned to be received in the throughholes of the guide track. 20. The refill of claim 19 further comprising: a piston head located in the first open end of the cavity. 21. The refill of claim 19 wherein: the flowable material is a cleaning, disinfecting and/or fragrancing adhesive gel. 22. The refill of claim 21 wherein: the flowable material is an adhesive gel suitable for application to a toilet, urinal, bathtub or shower. 23. The refill of claim 19 wherein: the body includes a shroud that extends away from the second end of the body and surrounds the dispensing orifice, the shroud being radially outwardly spaced from the dispensing orifice. 24. The device of claim 1 wherein the flowable adhesive material is a cleaning, disinfecting and/or fragrancing gel. 25. The device of claim 24 wherein the flowable adhesive material is an adhesive gel suitable for application to a toilet, urinal, bathtub or shower.
