Description

LIQUID HAIR COSMETIC PAINTING INSTR~MENT
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a painting instrument fitted with a comb member, for painting liquid hair cosmetics such as hair dye.
Prior Art Heretofore, such liquid hair cosmetic painting instruments have been known that each has a front shaft 2 from which a painting member such as a brush 3 and the like projects and on which a comb member 8 is fixedly mounted, with teeth portion thereof arranged along the painting member. In these instruments as shown in Figs. 9 and 10, a mounting portion 8b of the comb member 8 on a front end region 2a of the front shaft 2 is substantiallly cylindrical and is fixedly mounted around the outer periphery of the front end region 2a of the front shaft 2.
The above prior art liquid hair cosmetic painting instruments have irlvolved such problem that is hard to handle and unhandy to carry since outer diameter of the mounting portion 8b of the comb member 8 is large. However, if outer diameter of the front end region 2a of the front shafat 2 is decreased so as to decrease that of the mounting portion 8a, widths of the brush 3 and the like are narrowed and accordingly width of the teeth portion 8a is also narrowed, this results iII
such a bad effect that makes the painting work troublesome.
Accordingly, the present invention is aimed at providing such a liquid hair cosmetic painting instrument that is easy to handle and handy to carry with the outer diameter of the mounting portion of the comb member being narrowed, but without the widths of the painting member, such as the brush, and the teeth portion of the comb member arranged therealong being narrowed.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
For the purpose of achieving the above object, the liquid hair cosmetic painting instrument according to the present invention comprises such improvement, in a liquid hair cosmetic painting instrument of the type having the front shaft from which the painting member such as the brush and the like projects and on which the comb member is fixedly mounted with the teeth portion thereof arranged along the painting member, that has a front end region substantially rectangular in section of the front shaft on which the comb member is mounted and which has retaining members such as hook-like ribs provided at one side portion on a long side of the rectangle, and a rnounting portion of the comb member which abuts against the side portion of th,e front shaft provided with above rectalning members and which has engaging members such as engaging pieces and the like each engaged with the retaining member such as the hook-like rib and the like of the front shaft.

DESCRI Pl`ION OF TH~; PREFE~RED EMBODIMENT
R~ferring now to Figs. 1-8, an example o~ the present invent~on wlll be explained below.
~ n outer 6haft l ha~ a front sha~t 2 screwed onto the front end thereoP, and in the int~rio~ o~ ~aid front ~haft Z ls fixed the ba~al part 4 o~ the paintlny memb~r on which a ~ru~h 3 ha~.be4n planted. In the centr~l holo of said basal part 4 iB ~itted a liquid impregnated body 5 such a~ ~ponge, e~c.
which ~ome~ in contact with the bru~h 3, an~ at the re~r o~ the ba~al ~art 4 i~ ~ixed a l~quid delivery tube 7 with the ~topper 6 for the liquid impregnat~d body being di~posed therebetween.
~t the front end re~ion 2a o the f~ont shoft 2 is mounted a com~ ~ember ~ The innex ~haft 9 within which ~ liquid hair co6metic ~not shown ln the i~ure) ~uc~ as a hai~ dye has been contained 1~ hou~ed in the in~.~rior o~ the outer 6haf~ l ~o that it c~n b~ ~reely ~hlfted ln the axial di~eetion, with a valve 10 being provided in the opening ~ the front of said inner shaft 9. Said valve 10 comprises a stem 11, a valve seat 12, a valve spring 13, and a spring bearing 14. Onto the outer peripheral portion of the front end of said inner shaft 9 is screwed a cap 17 which has packing lS fixed therein. The rear end of the above described li.quid delivery tube 7 is inserted through the central. hole of said cap 16 in a state coming in watertight contact with the packing 15, whereby said rear end of the liquid delivery tube 7 abuts against the front end of the valve stem ll. On the outer peripheral portion at the rear end of said inner shaft 9 is slipped the knock shaft 17, and it is designed in such a way that if the knock shaft 17 is engaged with a groove 18 provided in the axial direction of said inner shaft 9 when the knock shaft 17 is given a rotating operation, said inner shaft 9 also can rotate integrally with the knock shaft. Further, in the opening at the rear end of said outer shaft 1 is fitted by pressing a breechblock 19 which prevents said inner shaft 9 from slipping rearward. The head portion 20 at a position somewhat behind the cap 16 in said inner shaft 9 has a flat surface on both sides, thus the cross-section along the direction perpendicular to the axial line being almost of the shape of a "koban" (a Jaspanese gold coin used in former times). On the inner surface of the outer shaft 1 is protrusively formed a controling wall 22 having a through hole 21 whose cross-section is almost simlar to, but slightly larger than, that of the above described head portion 20 of the inner shaft 9 in shape, and together with this there is also formed a stopper 24 having ribs 23 which have been protrusively formed similarly on the inner surface in the direction of from one end 6 ~ 3 r~ J~

of the edge of said controling wall 22 to the back, said stopper 24 being fixed on the inner surface of the outer shaft 1 so that said controling wall 22 can be situated in front of the head portion 20 of the inner shaft 9 which is in an unknocked sate.
When the inner shaft 9 is rotated integrally with the knock shaft 17 by giving a rotating operation to said knock shaft 17 so that the contour of the head portion 20 of the inner shaft 9 can enter the contour of the through hole 21 of the controling wall 22, if the knock shaft 17 is pressed forward, the head portion 20 passes through the through hole 21 allowing the inner shaft 9 to advance, but as the valve stem 11 abutting against the liquid delivery tube 7 cannot advance, it results that the valve stem 11 retreats relative to the valve seat 12, and thus the valve 10 is opened rendering it possible that the liquid hair cosmetic discharged from the inner shaft 9 is supplied to the brush 3 by passing through the liquid delivery tube 7 and liquid impregnated body 5. Furthermore, in the case where the inner shaft 9 has been rotated, it is contemplated that the pos.itioning may be made so that the contour of the head portion 20 can just fit in the contour of the through hole 21 in such a state that the stepped portions (not shown in the figure) provided at the end positions of the flat portions of the side faces of the head portion 20 are engaged ~7ith the above described ribs 23 of the stopper 24. It is also contemplated that when the knock pressure is released so as to retreat the inner shaft 9 by the restoring force of the valve spring 13 and the inner shaft 9 is rotated in the reverse direction in such a state that the head portion 20 is positioned in the rear of the through hole 21, the contour of the head portion 20 overruns the contour of the through hole 21, so that even though the inner shaft 9 rnay advance by the force of inertia due to its own weight, it cannot advance, being hampered by the controlling wall 22. Accordingly, if such a state is assured when not in use, the unwilling discharge of the liquid hair cosmetic due to the advancement of the inner shaft 9 can be prevented.
Now, referring to the front end region 2a of the above described front shaft 2, the shape of its cross-section is almost rectangular as shown in Figs. 7 and 8, and at both ends on the side portion 2b including one of the long sides of the rectangle are protrusively provided hook-like ribs 2c. On the other hand, the comb member 8 which is mounted to the front end region 2a of the front shaft 2 comprises the teeth portion 8a consisting of a plurality of teeth arranged in one plane and the mounting portion 8b forming an integral part oE said teeth portion 8a as shown in Figs. 2 through 7, and further, said mounting portion 8b comprises the basal part 8c in the form of a curved plate and the side face plate portions 8d on both sides thereof. While at the front end of said side face plate portion 8d are provided engaging pieces 8e capable of engagement with the hook-like ribs 2c provided at the front end region 2a of the above described front shaft, on the outer surface of the basal part 8c are provided ribs lying in the direction substantially perpendicular to the axial direction.
The comb member 8 is mounted to the front shaft 2 in a freely attachable and detachable manner in such a state that the mounting portion 8b thereof is parallel to the sid portion 2b of the front end region 2a of the front shaft 2.
Furthermore, the present invention is devised so as to put on the outer peripheral portion of the front shaft 2 a cap (not shown in the figure) covering the brush 3 and the comb body 8, and in Fig. 1, 25 and 26 indicate a seal ring and an ornamental ring, respectively.
In the present invention, as described above, there are provided the front end region 2a substantially rectangular in section of the front shaft 2 on which the comb member 8 is mounted and which has the retaining members such the hook-like ribs 2c provided at one side portion 2b on the long side of the rectangle, and the mounting portion 8b of the comb member 8 which abuts against the side portion 2b of the front shaft 2 provided with the above retaining members and which has the engaging members such as the engaging pieces 8e and the like each engaged with the retaining members such as the hook-like ribs 2c and the like of the front shaft 2.
Accordingly, as shown in Fig. 8, a diameter D1 of a circumcircle in a state where the mounting portion 8b of the comb member 8 is mounted on the front end region 2a of the front shaft 2 can be held down to a value substantially near that of another circumcircle in a state where the comb member 8 is not mounted on the front end reglon 2a of the front shaft 2.
On the contrary, as shown in Fig. 10 with the prior art, where the mounting portion 8b of the comb mernber 8 is substantially cylindrical, an outer diameter D2 on the mounting portion 8b of ~ ~,2) d the comb member 8 is surely larger than a diameter of a circumcircle where the comb member 8 is hOt mounted on the front end region 2a of the front shaft 2. Thus, the liquid hair cosmetic painting instrument according to the present invention is improved in easiness to use and handiness to carry, with the outer diameter of the mounting portion of the comb member being decreased in comparison with that of the prior art ones. Further, since there is no need to naxrow the width of the front end region of the front shaft on which the comb member is mounted as in the prior art ones, without the widths of the painting member such as the brush and the like and of the comb teeth portion being narrowed, there can be obviated such drawback that makes the painting work difficult.
