Description
Invention field
[0001] the present invention relates to unguis hominis's ornament, and more specifically, the present invention is about being used to place the structure and the method for preformed artificial nails, and is used for the skill that adheres to the unguis hominis.
Background of invention
[0002] owing to various aesthetic reasons, the finger nail that many individual's hope have elongated finger nail or have more perfect or bright outward appearance.Yet some can't or be unwilling to make themselves natural fingernails and toenails to grow to and wish length.Perhaps, they may have no time, technology or fund are gone the more perfect outward appearance safeguarding or obtain could to be obtained by the nail of abundant pruning and/or polishing.As a result, developed entire industries around the artificial supplementation and the raising of natural nail.This raising can comprise from natural fingernails and toenails is pruned and is polished to constructs artificial nails individually on natural nail, and the scope of the nail form that is formed by acrylic clear powder and liquid with the nail surface chemical bonding when the structure artificial nails.Between extreme is preformed artificial nails at these two kinds, and it is stuck or is bonded on the naturally occurring finger nail of people oneself.The user buys this nail by pharmacy and department store easily widely.This preformed artificial nails can be transparent or opaque and/or pre-polish(ing) and/or modification, thereby the outward appearance of expectation is provided.
[0003] artificial nails are generally made by molded thermoplastic, and can obtain very wide length and style scope.A kind of artificial nail style widely is complete nail form.Hint as its title, the whole staff nail of complete nail form simulation, and comprise proximal edge that will cover whole nail matrix substantially and the terminal free edge that will extend beyond wearer's finger tip.It is adjacent or near the finger epidermis that proximal edge is configured as basic epidermis with finger.Terminal free edge can have random length and shape according to the appearance of expectation, such as oval, square or tubaeform.Preferably, artificial nails are fully durable and hard to keep out the destruction that often has in it uses.
[0004] opposite, nail tip is not simulated complete nail, but, only be free edge and, typically, only cover a nail matrix part so that the little extension that promotes to adhere to nail.In use, only nail tip is fixed on contiguous free edge and most advanced and sophisticated lactulum unguis edge.Nail tip is often used with making up acrylic acid nail or gel nails.
[0005] manufacturer typically provides with the size numbering nail size range that 0-9 was identified with adaptive most of nail sizes to the user.Usually, artificial nails make the buyer receive different artificial nails to be used for their different finger with the complete packaged that comprises different size together.Except the artificial nails of complete different size, described packing can also comprise and be used for artificial nails are bonded to liquid adhesive, the strippable adhesive pad on buyer's the natural fingernails and toenails and/or preset tacky adhesion.
[0006] artificial nails provide with multiple length range, the relative brachydactylia first of good natural nail of modifying from long relatively nail with straight-line profile or arch profile to more approaching simulation.In the process on the natural nail that artificial nails is placed on the user, typically adhesive is applied directly on user's the natural nail bed or the nail matrix part of artificial nails.Artificial nails are placed on user's the natural nail bed then, the near-end of artificial nails are placed or, and exert pressure, to guarantee the desirable bonding of artificial nails and user's natural nail near user's epidermis.Because the common viscosity of in placing artificial nails, using of adhesive, so in case finished initial placement then be difficult to adjust the position of artificial nails on natural nail.Attempt relative natural nail and reorientate artificial nails or removal and replacement artificial nails and can cause inferior artificial nails outward appearance, or clean artificial nails in addition and repeat the time consumption of put procedure.As a result, the ideal position place that when attempting first artificial nails is placed on the natural nail is extremely important, to avoid removing and reorientating the needs of nail.
[0007] long artificial nails typically extend the free edge that fully surpasses user's natural nail.Therefore, when the artificial nails that will grow relatively were placed on user's the natural nail, people can utilize the prolongation free edge of artificial nails to grip artificial nails before placement and operation and accurate location artificial nails on user's nail matrix usually.Yet when utilizing less artificial nails, free edge is very short, and do not prolong too far away above user's natural nail or finger tip, even the words that surpass.Therefore, such brachydactylia first is difficult to especially by simply holding these artificial nails with people's finger and accurately being placed on user's the natural nail.
[0008] result, manufacturer have proposed the multiple instrument that grips and place artificial nails that is used to allow in application process.A kind of such instrument is included in the extended bars that this tool tip has tacky adhesion pad or adhesive tape, to hold artificial nails, and such as the United States Patent (USP) 6,220 of Park, the instrument shown in 250 and by Sally
The instrument of selling.Yet this tacky adhesion pad is proved to be in use unreliable, because typically, adhesive weakens in time to the confining force that artificial nails apply, thereby makes it not apply stable confining force to artificial nails.And, if adhesive pad by pollutions such as dusts, it is invalid that it becomes usually, do not keep a series of nails that are used to place because it does not show enough power.
[0009] another kind of such instrument is configured as the spill shovel, it has with this evens the short reverse antelabium that row is placed out, so that between the inner surface of this shovel and this antelabium, form crack or gap, United States Patent (USP) D441 as Manzione, shown in 134, and by Uptown Nails, LLC sells.In use, the adjacent inner surface that should shovel of the outside arcuate surface of artificial nails is placed, made the free edge of artificial nails place gap between antelabium and the shovel.This instrument shows shortcoming equally.Although " shovel " instrument does not weaken along with using, its use is pretty troublesome.If the gap between shovel and the antelabium is enough little of artificial nails are applied confining force, then typically, when placing, should needs the user that artificial nails are applied outside downward confining force, thereby promote this instrument to discharge artificial nails at natural nail.Because user's free hand grips this instrument, thus typically must use the finger different that the artificial nails of placing are applied confining force in using with placing hand, to promote that artificial nails discharge from this instrument.On the contrary, if this instrument does not apply the confining force that is enough to grip artificial nails in put procedure, then this instrument can allow that artificial nails move in described gap, and this makes that accurately to locate artificial nails at natural nail significantly more difficult.
[0010] assignee of the present invention has proposed a kind of instrument, and this instrument utilization places the small sucker of extended bars end.In the process that artificial nails is applied on the natural nail, the user is placed on sucker on the upper surface of artificial nails, and gets rid of any air that is absorbed between this dish and the nail.Then, the user utilizes this instrument that artificial nails are navigated on the natural nail.Sucker provides the power that is enough to keep nail in put procedure, yet, in case after suitably placing, this power is overcome by the viscosity and the adhesives of adhesive between artificial nails and the natural nail.This instrument is disclosed among the open WO06/062963A of PCT in more detail.
[0011] manufacturer has been proposed equally by the extended separable excrescence in one or more edges of artificial nails itself.In a single day this excrescence is used to place artificial nails and finishes suitable placement then and separate from nail.For example, the United States Patent (USP) 6,892,736 of Chinn etc. comprises the protuberance that is extended out by the nail terminal edge.Yet unfortunately, the Chinn protuberance does not meet ergonomics, and is difficult to and is inconvenient to use.As shown in Figure 11, Chinn protuberance 13 must the typical case be held between the finger 14 and thumb 15 of using hand 16, thumb 15 place artificial nails 17 plane following or on.Therefore, user's hand 16 is in clumsy position with respect to the finger of accepting.The result, typically, must use with accepting the finger that hand separates artificial nails 17 are positioned on the natural nail securely in the process of separating nail protuberance 13, perhaps the user must remain on the appropriate position when adhesive solidifies fully with artificial nails 17.At other lists of references, such as meeting with similarly difficulty in the process of disclosed placement nail in the United States Patent (USP) 5,005,595 of for example Aylott.
[0012] result is desirable to provide the nail apparatus for placing of these shortcomings that overcome prior art, thus provide artificial nails accurately and reliable, can repeat to place.
Summary of the invention
[0013] the invention provides nail application tabs (tab), it is extended out by the end of nail usually, and the application tabs main body is in and comprises that the plane of artificial nails upper surface or lower surface is angled.Typically, described application tabs is in approximately and comprises the established law angle, plane of artificial nails upper surface along central line measurement the time, although this protuberance can be in into alternate angle, be preferably more than 30 °.Application tabs can by the terminal edge of nail go up or lower surface in any one or a plurality of extending out.After the placement, this application can separate by any suitable mode.Separation can by by the zone of for example boring a hole, reduce thickness, delineation line or the atenuator region that reduces the zone of cross section and provide promote.
[0014] prolongation of the protuberance that uses in molded artificial nails or other cast gates (gating) feature can be particularly conducive to cast gate or nail and protuberance, tree (tree) or other molded structures are separated.
