Abstract

The invention relates to a container top (1, 1.1) for applying a liquid hair treatment agent (2) to the hair of the head. Said container top has several hollow teeth (3) which are substantially equal in length, on a tooth base (4). Said hollow teeth have an inner channel (5) which is provided with at least one exit opening (8), at least in the area (6) of the tooth end (7). Comb teeth (9) are situated between the hollow teeth (3) and have a maximum length (L), that of the hollow teeth.

Description

The invention relates to a container attachment according to the Genus of the preamble of claim 1.

Such an attachment connected to a storage container with hollow tines for applying a liquid Hair treatment agent on head hair is for example US 5 311 887 A1 and serves, in particular for self-application, strands of hair or the whole Scalp hair with the hair treatment agent - such as a hair dye - to wet it as completely as possible, why the hollow tines with the emerging Hair treatment agent through the head hair several times to be deleted, but only with - as a rule protected - hands by further manually distributing the Hair treatment agent can be achieved on the strand of hair can.

The object of the invention is therefore a generic To create a container attachment, which is largely another manual distribution of the hair treatment agent after the Application makes superfluous or one better wetting of the hair treatment agent on the Scalp hair allows.

This task is solved according to the characteristic part of the Claim 1. Further advantageous developments of Invention emerge from the subclaims.

Due to the comb teeth arranged between the hollow teeth becomes a more even wetting and distribution of the  Hair treatment agent reached on the scalp hair. Moreover the comb teeth make it quick and easy Application is achieved by unraveling the dry Scalp hair. Furthermore, the comb function of Comb teeth ensure that the hair on the head is not affected The hollow tines slip.

The fact that the comb teeth about half a length of Having hollow prongs can be a relatively thick strand of hair be guided between the hollow tines.

Due to the slightly conical comb and Hollow tines make the attachment easier to remove from the hair to take.

The outlet openings can optionally be at the bottom Tine end or laterally arranged.

The elastic hollow tines have the advantage that these adapt to a head shape.

The invention is based on two exemplary embodiments explained in more detail. It shows:

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a container attachment in a first embodiment.

Fig. 2 is a side sectional view of the essay of FIG. 1;

Fig. 3 in a side view of the essay;

Fig. 8 is a plan view of the closure cap;

Fig. 9 is a plan view of a container attachment in a second embodiment, and

Fig. 10 the container cap according to FIG. 2, but with lateral outlet openings.

Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of a container cap 1 for applying a liquid hair treatment composition 2 (FIG. 2) to head hair, a plurality of substantially equally long hollow tines 3 comprises on a zinc base 4 having an internal channel 5, which at least in the area 6 of a Tine end 7 is provided with at least one outlet opening 8 . Comb tines 9 are arranged between the hollow tines 3 and have a maximum length L of the hollow tines 3 . The comb teeth 9 have approximately half a length L of the hollow teeth 3 and are conical like the hollow teeth 3 . The outlet openings 8 are arranged at the lower tine end 7 of the hollow tines 3 . The three hollow tines 3 and the two comb tines 9 are arranged in a row, the outlet openings 8 being aligned in a plane 11 of the row.

To connect the attachment 1 to a crushable storage container 10 shown in dashed lines, the attachment 1 is provided with an internal thread 12 and the container 10 with a corresponding external thread neck 13 . The hair treatment agent 2 is applied by corresponding manual pressing on the container wall of the container 10 , the tines 3 being directed essentially downward toward the head hair ( FIG. 2). The at least hollow tines 3 are designed to be elastic, as a result of which they can adapt to a head shape.

In Figs. 5, 7 and 8 show different views of a closure cap 14 is shown for closing the outlet openings 3. This function is shown in FIG. 6, wherein the closure cap 14 snaps into place with at least the central hollow prong 3 and can be released again by manually pressing the lower side regions 15 .

A second embodiment of an attachment 1.1 is shown in FIG. 9, the hollow and comb teeth 3 , 9 being arranged in a circle. As a result, the attachment 1.1 does not have to be oriented toward the head hair, which results in a handling advantage.

In the Fig. 10 of the article 1 of FIG. 2 is shown, is excluded with lateral appearance openings 8, whereby a direct contact with the scalp.
