Abstract

This utility model is an electrical mascara brush. A brush (l) with a rod (k), as is generally used today for applying mascara to eyelashes, is rotatably mounted in a lid, with which the ink reservoir is closed. This lid is also used in particular to attach to an ergonomically shaped handle that contains the entire drive unit. The motor (b) in the handle is automatically switched on when the brush is attached. On the outside of the handle there are switches (g) for the direction of rotation of the brush and LED indicators for this direction of rotation.

Description

AT 003 160 ul

This utility model is an electrical mascara brush. According to the prior art, the mascara brush is guided by hand to pick up paint from the container and apply it to the eyelashes.

With the present pattern, these processes are to be carried out conveniently and effectively with an electrically operated, rotating brush.

The invention consists in the way in which the brush is coupled to and uncoupled from the motor drive and operated in the optional direction of rotation. When not in use, the coupling part on the brush serves as a lid and closes the ink reservoir.

An exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing figures.

The mascara brush of the invention consists of several parts: the paint container with screw thread for the brush lid (Fig 2); the brush with the lid for the paint container (Fig 3). The couplings for the handle (j) and the bearing (h) for the rotating brush rod (k) are also in the cover; the ergonomically shaped handle, which holds and drives the brush over the cover coupling and contains the power supply (a), the drive motor (b) and the transmission gear (c) (Fig. 4); and the charger with bracket for wall mounting and the recess for holding the handle and inductive charging of the batteries (not shown). 2 AT 003 160 ul

Operation process:

The brush is attached to the handle (Fig. 4) by means of the coupling part (Fig. 1), which is still screwed onto the paint container and serves as a cover (Fig. 2 and 3). The mounting pins (d, Fig. 4) snap firmly and audibly into the receiving holes in the coupling part (j, Fig. 1 and 3). There are electrical contacts on the mounting pins (d) and the holes (j), which are connected by plugging them on. In the coupling part (Fig. 1, e) there is an electrical contact bridge between the two holes. As a result, the motor power supply is switched on when the brush is plugged in, the brush immediately begins to rotate, still in the paint container. No on / off switch is necessary and no speed controller. The rotation is held slowly by the gear (c, Fig. 4), 1 rotation in 3 seconds is advantageous. Only the center (h, Fig. 1 and 3) can be rotated in the coupling part, the extension of which is the rod (k, Fig. 3) with the brush (I, Fig. 3). The named middle part (h, Fig. 1) is driven by the flat pin on the handle (i, Fig. 4), which fits into the radial teeth of this middle part. The two pins create a firm connection between the handle and the brush. Now the paint container can be removed from the cover with a% turn of the thread (m). The excess paint is conveniently stripped off by the rotating brush.

The direction of rotation of the brush is immediately indicated by an LED in arrow shape (f) when the contact closes when the brush is attached. There are two identical displays on the handle, one each on the opposite sides. This makes it easy to read when working with both the right and left hands. There is also a switch button (g) on both sides for the direction of rotation. It is therefore easy to operate with both the thumb and the index finger, each with the same effect. Pressing once changes the direction of rotation of the brush and illuminates the corresponding part "up" (o) or "down" (p) in the arrow (f).

The paint is bought in a container without a brush (Fig. 2). The container is welded with a film (s) and comes on the market with a simple screw cap (not shown). 3rd

Claims (9)

AT 003160 Ul claims 1.) Mascara brush for connection to an electric drive, characterized in that the brush handle (Fig. 3) is rotatably mounted in a plate-shaped coupling part (Fig 1) and has radially aligned slots (teeth) (h) at the end . 2.) Mascara brush according to claim 1, characterized in that there are two coupling pins on the handle (Fig 4) which fit into the coupling holes (j) on the coupling part of the brush. 3.) Mascara brush according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that there is an electrically driven flat pin on the handle (i) which fits into the toothing on the brush coupling (h) and rotates it. 4.) Mascara brush according to claim 1 to 3, characterized in that the plate-shaped coupling part of the mascara brush also serves to close the paint reservoir (Fig 2) by means of an internal screw thread (m, Fig. 1). 5.) Mascara brush according to claim 1 to 4, characterized in that there are electrical contacts on the coupling pins (d) and holes (j) which belong to a conductor path between the battery and the motor. 6.) Mascara brush according to claim 1 to 5, characterized in that in the coupling part of the brush there is an electrical bridge (e) between the two coupling holes (j), which causes the brush to rotate automatically when the brush is attached to the handle . 7) Mascara brush according to claim 1 to 6, characterized in that in the handle (Fig 4) there are battery (a), motor (b) and gear (c), the latter the rotation of the brush to a number of one revolution in three Secured seconds. 8.)
