Description
L'invention est relative à un pinceau pour l'application d'un produit sur les ongles, notamment d'un vernis à ongles du genre de ceux qui comprennent des poils disposés sensiblement parallèlement les uns aux autres, en touffe, fixés sur un support.The invention relates to a brush for application a product on the nails, in particular a nail polish of the kind of those comprising hairs arranged substantially parallel to each other, tufted, fixed on a support.
Les pinceaux de ce type sont, par exemple, décrits dans US-A-4 998 315.Brushes of this type are, for example, described in US-A-4,998,315.
Les pinceaux proposés jusqu'à maintenant permettent, dans l'ensemble, d'assurer un maquillage relativement satisfaisant mais il est souhaitable de pouvoir améliorer la précision et la rapidité du maquillage, notamment la précision de l'application du vernis ou produit similaire.The brushes offered so far allow, overall, to ensure a relatively makeup satisfactory but it is desirable to be able to improve the precision and speed of makeup, in particular the precision of the application of the varnish or similar product.
En outre, avec un pinceau classique, il est souvent nécessaire de plonger plusieurs fois le pinceau dans le récipient pour effectuer le maquillage d'un ongle car la charge de produit prise par le pinceau est relativement faible. Diverses solutions ont déjà été proposées pour remédier à cet inconvénient et pour incorporer une sorte de réservoir dans la tige du pinceau, mais ces solutions compliquent la fabrication et l'utilisation du pinceau.In addition, with a conventional brush, it is often necessary to plunge the brush several times into the container for making up a nail because the charge of product taken up by the brush is relatively low. Various solutions have already been proposed for remedy this drawback and to incorporate a sort of reservoir in the brush rod but these solutions complicate the manufacture and use of the brush.
Il est connu, par ailleurs, par EP-A-0 239 270, une brosse à mascara du type spirale dans laquelle les poils s'écartent radialement les uns des autres. Selon EP-A-0 239 270, on utilise des poils de flexibilité différente : les poils les moins flexibles ayant pour fonction de peigner les cils et les plus flexibles de prélever et de déposer le mascara sur les cils. La différence de flexibilité peut être obtenue en utilisant des poils de diamètres différents.It is known, moreover, from EP-A-0 239 270, a mascara brush of the spiral type in which the bristles deviate radially from each other. According to EP-A-0 239 270, bristles of different flexibility are used: less flexible bristles with the function of combing eyelashes and the most flexible to collect and deposit mascara on the lashes. The difference in flexibility can be obtained by using bristles of different diameters.
L'invention a pour but, surtout, de fournir un pinceau qui ne présente plus, ou à un degré moindre, les inconvénients rappelés ci-dessus et qui permette de réaliser un maquillage précis et rapide.The invention aims, above all, to provide a brush which no longer has, or to a lesser degree, disadvantages mentioned above and which allows make a precise and fast makeup.
Selon l'invention, un pinceau pour l'application d'un produit sur les ongles, notamment d'un vernis à ongles, comprenant des poils disposés sensiblement parallèlement les uns aux autres, en touffe, fixés sur un support d'axe longitudinal sensiblement parallèle aux poils, est caractérisé par le fait que les poils sont constitués par un mélange de poils de petite section, ou petits poils, et de poils ayant une section transversale plus importante ou gros poils, la proportion de gros poils étant comprise entre 2 % et 95 % en volume par rapport au volume total de la touffe du pinceau, et de préférence entre 10 % et 90 %, de sorte que, dans ce pinceau, du fait de la présence des gros poils, les interstices entre les poils sont plus grands et servent de réserve capillaire et les petits poils ont une fonction de lissé.According to the invention, a brush for applying a product to the nails, in particular a nail polish, comprising hairs arranged substantially parallel to each other others, tufted, fixed on a support with a longitudinal axis substantially parallel to the bristles, is characterized by the fact that the hairs are formed by a mixture bristles of small section, or small bristles, and bristles having a larger or larger cross section hairs, the proportion of large hairs being between 2 % and 95% by volume compared to the total volume of the tuft of the brush, and preferably between 10% and 90%, so that, in this brush, due to the presence large hairs, the interstices between the hairs are more large and serve as capillary reserve and small hairs have a smoothing function.
De préférence, les petits poils ont une section inscrite dans un cercle de diamètre compris entre 4 centièmes et 10 centièmes de millimètres tandis que les gros poils ont une section inscrite dans un cercle de diamètre compris entre 11 centièmes et 40 centièmes de millimètres. La section des gros poils est avantageusement inscrite dans un cercle de diamètre compris entre 14 centièmes et 17 centièmes de millimètres.Preferably, the small hairs have an inscribed section in a circle with a diameter between 4 hundredths and 10 hundredths of a millimeter while the big ones hairs have a section inscribed in a circle of diameter between 11 hundredths and 40 hundredths of a millimeter. The coarse hair section is advantageously inscribed in a circle of diameter between 14 hundredths and 17 hundredths of a millimeter.
La longueur de la touffe de poils est généralement comprise entre 11 et 25 millimètres et en particulier entre 13 et 20 millimètres. Les gros poils et les petits poils peuvent avoir la même longueur ; en variante, ils peuvent ne pas avoir la même longueur, la différence de longueur étant alors comprise entre 0,1 et 2 mm.The length of the tuft of hair is generally between 11 and 25 millimeters and in particular between 13 and 20 millimeters. Large hairs and small ones hairs can be the same length; alternatively they may not be the same length, the difference from length then being between 0.1 and 2 mm.
De par la présence des gros poils, il est possible de réaliser des touffes plus longues, supérieures à 13 milo limètres, ce qui permet d'obtenir à l'application des courbures du pinceau différentes de celles d'un pinceau normal dont la longueur de touffe est comprise entre 11 et 13 mm ; l'application du vernis est ainsi facilitée et plus performante.Due to the presence of large hairs, it is possible to make longer tufts, greater than 13 milo limiters, which allows the application of curvatures of the brush different from those of a brush normal whose tuft length is between 11 and 13 mm; the application of the varnish is thus facilitated and more efficient.
Lorsque les poils sont réalisés en matière plastique ou naturelle, la matière constitutive des poils est avantageusement choisie dans le groupe formé par les polyamides, les polyesters, les polyéther-bloc-amides, le polyéthylène, le polytétrafluoroéthylène, le polyfluorure de vinylidène, les polyacétals, les soies naturelles, de préférence d'origine animale.When the bristles are made of plastic or natural, the material of the hairs is advantageously chosen from the group formed by polyamides, polyesters, polyether-block amides, polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyfluoride vinylidene, polyacetals, natural bristles, preferably animal.

Comme le pinceau est destiné à l'application d'un produit sur les ongles, notamment d'un vernis à ongles à viscosité faible, notamment à viscosité inférieure à 0,6 Pa.s, correspondant à une formule liquide, le mélange de poils du pinceau comporte environ 90 à 95 % en volume de gros poils dans la touffe pour assurer un effet réservoir suffisant.As the brush is intended for applying a product to the nails, in particular a viscosity nail polish low, especially at viscosity less than 0.6 Pa.s, corresponding to a liquid formula, the mixture of hairs of the brush contains approximately 90 to 95% by volume of large hairs in the tuft to ensure a reservoir effect sufficient.
Dans le cas d'un pinceau dont les poils sont en matière plastique, avantageusement, un agent améliorant la caractéristique de glissement du poil et réduisant sa mouillabilité à l'eau et/ou au solvant est incorporé dans la matière des poils, selon un taux compris entre 0,2 % et 15 % en poids.In the case of a brush whose bristles are in plastic, advantageously an improving agent the characteristic of hair sliding and reducing its wettability with water and / or solvent is incorporated in the hair material, at a rate between 0.2% and 15% by weight.
Cet agent de glissement est choisi, de préférence, dans le groupe formé par le polytétrafluoroéthylène, le nitrure de bore et le bisulfure de molybdène.This slip agent is preferably chosen in the group formed by polytetrafluoroethylene, the boron nitride and molybdenum disulfide.
Une partie des poils au moins peut présenter de légères ondulations sur sa longueur.At least part of the hair may have slight ripples along its length.
Les poils peuvent avoir des sections dont la forme est choisie parmi le groupe des formes circulaire, polygonale, cruciforme, annulaire, plate ou en U. Les poils peuvent comporter au moins une rainure capillaire.The hairs may have sections whose shape is chosen from the group of circular, polygonal shapes, cruciform, annular, flat or U-shaped. The hairs may include at least one capillary groove.
L'extrémité des poils peut être agencée en forme de tête d'épingle, notamment obtenue par traitement thermique.The end of the bristles can be arranged in the form pin head, in particular obtained by treatment thermal.
L'extrémité peut subir également un traitement abrasif par exemple par meulage.The extremity can also undergo treatment abrasive for example by grinding.
La section transversale du pinceau peut avoir différentes formes, notamment plate, circulaire, ou en forme de tuile demi-ronde pour mieux épouser le bulbe de l'ongle.The cross section of the brush may have different shapes, including flat, circular, or shaped half-round tile to better match the bulb the nail.
Le bout du pinceau peut être plat ou arrondi.The tip of the brush can be flat or rounded.
Les poils sont fixés à la tige à l'aide d'une agrafe soit à section circulaire de diamètre compris entre 0,5 et 1,5 mm, soit à section rectangulaire 1,5 x 0,2 mm. The bristles are attached to the rod with a staple either with a circular section of diameter between 0.5 and 1.5 mm, i.e. 1.5 x 0.2 mm rectangular section.
L'extrémité de la tige sur laquelle est fixée la touffe de poils peut présenter un bord en forme de cône pour permettre aux poils de s'écarter.The end of the stem on which the tuft is fixed bristles may have a cone-shaped edge for allow the hairs to spread.
L'invention consiste, mises à part les dispositions exposées ci-dessus, en un certain nombre d'autres dispositions dont il sera plus explicitement question ci-après à propos d'exemples de réalisation décrits avec référence au dessin ci-annexé, mais qui ne sont nullement limitatifs.The invention consists, apart from the provisions set out above, in a number of other provisions which will be more explicitly discussed below about exemplary embodiments described with reference to the attached drawing, but which are in no way limiting.

cylindrique 4 servant d'organe de manoeuvre du pinceau
et de bouchon destiné, par exemple, à être vissé,
grace à un filetage interne non visible sur la figure 1, sur
le goulot d'un flacon de vernis.Referring to Figure 1 of the drawing, one can see a brush 1 for applying nail
Le pinceau représenté montre des poils
2a, 2b orientés suivant la direction longitudinale du support
constitué par la tige 3.The brush shown shows
Selon l'invention, les poils du pinceau sont constitués
d'un mélange de poils 2a de petite section ou petits
poils et de poils 2b ayant une section transversale plus

que les petits poils 2a.The sections of the
Du fait de la présence de gros poils 2b, comme visible
sur la figure 2, les interstices i entre les poils sont
plus grands et servent de réserve capillaire au produit à
appliquer. Ceci permet d'obtenir un pinceau 1 plus
chargé en produit, dans sa touffe T, lorsque cette touffe
a été plongée dans le réservoir de produit liquide. Les
petits poils 2a ont une fonction de "lissé" partait pour la
finition.Due to the presence of
Selon la viscosité du produit liquide à appliquer, on
peut régler l'effet réservoir de la touffe T de poils du pinceau
en modifiant la proportion de gros poils 2b. Par
exemple, avec une formule de vernis à ongles liquide.
de viscosité relativement faible par exemple de l'ordre
de 0,2 Pa.s, la touffe T contiendra des gros poils 2b à
environ 90 à 95 % en volume de la touffe.Depending on the viscosity of the liquid product to be applied, the reservoir effect of the tuft T of brush bristles can be adjusted by modifying the proportion of
Le pinceau 1, au niveau de sa touffe T, peut présenter différentes formes de section transversale.
