Definitions
- the present invention relates to the general technical field of devices for applying hot-melt products, such as depilatory wax, ointments, creams, or even glues or varnishes, in which the product stored in solid form must be subjected. to a heat flux to change state and pass to an at least pasty state so that it can be applied.
- hot-melt products such as depilatory wax, ointments, creams, or even glues or varnishes
- the present invention relates specifically to an applicator of hot-melt products, in particular depilatory wax, comprising a housing associated with a gripping means, a reservoir of product to be applied in thermal relation with heating means, and at least one applicator means of the product disposed in the vicinity of an outlet opening of the tank.
- an applicator is known from EP-A-0 368 698.
- hot-melt products should be understood to mean all types of products being at room temperature in a solid physical state, even semi-solid or pasty, but liable under the action of heat to change physical state to liquefy sufficiently. so that it can be spread out as a layer.
- the invention aims more particularly to protect a depilatory wax applicator, but it is obvious that the product applicator according to the invention is not limited to this specific use.
- the depilation technique by applying a depilatory wax consists in melting a certain amount of wax, then in applying in the molten state, a layer of this wax on the area to be depilated. After hardening, that is to say after cooling, the cold wax film is removed using any suitable means, the hairs then being extracted from the skin due to their joining with the wax.
- ready-to-use hot wax dispensers consisting of a reservoir heated by any means, for example by a device similar to a bottle warmer. These devices are completed by a simple wax distributor roller which the user introduces into the tank in order to regularly coat it with hot wax. These devices, very rustic, turn out to no longer meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of users of depilatory wax.
- the temperature of application of the wax is poorly controlled, as well as the thickness of application of the layer of wax.
- These devices are also known as relatively bulky, and giving rise to a long, tedious, often messy hair removal operation and involving excessive consumption of wax.
- the applicator assembly includes a housing provided with heating housings into which are inserted applicators intended to be entered manually by the user.
- the applicators are provided with an internal reservoir intended to contain a charge of solid depilatory wax on the one hand, and a wax applicator roller on the other hand.
- Such an applicator obviously constitutes an improvement over previous devices, but does not however completely solve the problem of controlling the temperature of application of the wax.
- the object of the present invention therefore aims to remedy the drawbacks mentioned above, and to provide an applicator of hot-melt products whose design and production is particularly simplified, while allowing optimal control and control of the application temperature of the hot-melt product.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an applicator of hot melt products for controlling and controlling the temperature of the entire mass of the hot melt product to be applied.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an applicator of hot-melt products, the electrical connection means of which are particularly simple to produce and, despite everything, reliable.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an applicator of hot-melt products whose temperature of the product to be applied is controlled differently in different places of the tank.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an applicator of hot-melt products in which the thermal regulation is improved, and able to provide several modes of regulation.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an applicator of hot-melt products provided with applicator means allowing a deposition of said product, without risk of leakage or untimely spreading.
- the applicator of hot-melt products according to the invention shown in Figure 1 comprises a housing 1 forming the outer casing of the applicator.
- the housing can have any suitable shape, and for example be of a general shape similar to a cylinder of revolution around a longitudinal axis x-x ', advantageously of circular cross section.
- the cross section of the housing 1 can be constant over the entire length of the housing 1, or on the contrary, in an advantageous version of the invention, as shown in FIG. 1, include in its lower part a section 2 in trunk cone whose diameter narrows substantially regularly to result in an end section 3 of diameter again constant but reduced.
- the housing 1 advantageously consists of a single piece forming a wall 4, preferably of constant thickness, made for example of any sufficiently rigid plastic material.
- the housing 1 is associated with a gripping means 5, constituted in its simplest version by the upper part of the housing 1.
- the housing 1 can be provided with a handle or a handle attached, intended to be entered by the user, and then constituting the gripping means.
- the applicator according to the invention also comprises a reservoir 8 intended to ensure the temporary storage of the hot-melt product before its application.
- the reservoir 8 is disposed inside the volume defined by the housing 1, and it preferably has the same axis of revolution x-x ', as the housing 1.
- the reservoir 8 is therefore externally limited by an envelope 9 of average thickness which can be of the order of 1.5 to 2 mm and of which at least one part or only a fraction is made of a plastic material conducting the electric current forming a resistive element, such as for example an elastomer material loaded with carbon.
- the reservoir 8 is made of a plastic material conducting the electric current in such a way that the envelope 9 constitutes all of the walls of said reservoir 8.
- the envelope 9 only one or several parts of the envelope 9, and for example sections 2 and / or 3, could be made of a plastic material conducting the electric current. Indeed, the passage of electric current through the plastic material generates a thermal flux ensuring the melting of the hot-melt product.
- all the geometrical positions of the part or fraction of envelope 9 made of plastic material conducting electricity allowing, by the release of heat, the melting of the mass or of a significant mass of the hot-melt product to be applied can be envisaged.
- only a fraction of the envelope, defining for example any sector or any curved area, the geometric position of which is suitably chosen, and for example preferably in the lower part of the applicator could be made of plastic conductive current.
- the rest of the envelope 9 is in this case made of a material which is a good conductor of heat.
- the envelope 9, or the envelope fraction 9 made of plastic material conducting the electric current is connected to a pair of electrodes 10, advantageously constituted by two strips or metallic grids arranged on the envelope 9 in opposition.
- the strips or screens are made integral by any appropriate means with the internal or external face of the envelope 9, or for example overmolded in the walls of the tank 8.
- the reservoir 8 has a cross section, preferably comparable to a quadrilateral, and the electrodes 10 preferably extend over the entire surface of the two opposite lateral faces of the reservoir 8 and are projected by a connection tab 10a, outside the lower external limits of the housing 1 (Fig. 10).
- the electrodes 10 can also be produced by electroplating or else by screen printing of a conductive ink.
- the electrodes are arranged on the external surface of the walls of the envelope 9, but it is obvious that they can also be included in the same mass of the wall or even extend over the internal surface of the wall, in contact with the wax.
- the envelope 9, or the envelope fraction 9, made of plastic material conductive of the electric current thus constitutes the heating means of the applicator according to the invention which are intended to ensure the continuous melting of the hot-melt product stored in the reservoir 8. The latter thus assumes a dual function, that of a resistive heating element, and that of a container.
- the envelope 9 or fraction of the envelope 9 can be made of any plastic material having resistive properties such as silicone elastomers, polypropylene loaded with carbon, polymers made conductive by a carbon load, or even intrinsic conductive polymers ( Polyaniline-filled PVC) for example.
- plastic material having resistive properties such as silicone elastomers, polypropylene loaded with carbon, polymers made conductive by a carbon load, or even intrinsic conductive polymers ( Polyaniline-filled PVC) for example.
- the housing 1 surrounds the reservoir 8, and is thermally insulated from said reservoir by insulation means 11.
- the latter can be formed as shown in FIG. 1, by a simple air layer 12 of appropriate thickness.
- the insulation means 11 consist of a series of longitudinal ribs 13 preferably formed in the thickness of the housing 1 on its internal face. The longitudinal ribs 13 are thus in abutment against the external periphery of the reservoir 8 and define between them a series of longitudinal air strips 14. Obviously, as a variant, the longitudinal ribs 13 could be produced in the thickness of the envelope 9.
- the applicator of hot-melt products also comprises at least one applicator means 18 for said product, said means being disposed in the vicinity of an outlet orifice 20 formed, as shown in FIG. 1 at the bottom. of the reservoir 8.
- the applicator means 18 advantageously consists of a roller 21 supported as shown for example in FIG. 2, by axes of rotation 22 integral with the roller 21 and mounted with the possibility of rotation in a notch formed in the housing 1.
- the roller 18 can also be supported directly by the casing 9 opposite the outlet orifice 20.
- the roller 21 is of dimensions appropriate to the dimensions of the outlet orifice 20 so that '' a thin film of the hot-melt product, in this case generally depilatory wax, can be deposited on its surface and applied to the skin of the user.
- the roller 21 is mounted to rotate freely, but it is obvious that the latter can also be driven by any conventional drive means.
- Figures 4 and 5 show an alternative embodiment according to the invention, according to which the roller 21 is mounted with the possibility of free movement under its own weight, substantially in the direction of the axis x-x '.
- the roller 21 is supported by the ends of its axes of rotation 22 in grooves 25 forming a sliding path.
- the grooves 25 are formed in the housing or the envelope 9, and have a generally oblong shape with an axis of symmetry substantially parallel to the axis x-x '.
- the dimensional relationships between the opening 20 and the size of the roller 21, in this case its diameter, are such that when the roller 21 is in abutment against a surface P, materializing the skin of the user, it comes to occupy the position of stop shown in FIG. 4.
- the roller 21 In the position shown in Figure 5, the roller 21 is released from the skin of the user, and under the effect of its own weight materialized by the arrow G, it comes to occupy in section 2 in the form of a cone throne a stop position, called the bottom position, in which the axis of rotation 22 comes to bear against the lower end 28 of the groove 25. In this position, the dimensional relationships between the roller 21 and the opening 22 are such that the roller 21 seals the outlet orifice 20.
- FIG. 6 shows a detail of embodiment of a roller 21, according to which the roller 21 is preferably provided on its surface with circular grooves 30 forming extra thickness. These streaks have the effect of thickening the wax strip, the roller 21 possibly even being advantageously of a reduced diameter at its ends in order to ensure the presence of a bead on the edges of the wax strip in order to facilitate his uprooting.
- the roller 21 can also be striated in the longitudinal direction in order to favor the rotation of the roller and to ensure the thickening of the strip of wax.
- the roller 21 can be made of any material capable of developing a relatively weak adhesion of the wax, and in any case less than the adhesion of the wax to the skin. The materials used can be for example prolypropylene or silicone.
- the applicator according to the invention can be provided with a dual-voltage switch (not shown in the figures) capable of delivering a first cold supply voltage when the applicator is started for the first time.
- the second supply voltage is lower than the first supply voltage and ensures that the wax is maintained at the average application temperature.
- This assembly makes it possible to provide a high thermal power allowing a rapid melting of the entire mass of wax.
- the same effect can be obtained by choosing the plastic material of the casing 9, from among the materials having a high positive temperature coefficient.
- the housing 1 is closed at its upper part by a closure plug 31 attached by any suitable means.
- Figs. 10 and 11 show an alternative embodiment which differs from the previous variants only by mounting a removable roller 21.
- the latter is mounted on a cap 40 intended to be threaded onto the end part of the housing 1 associated with the outlet orifice 20, and locked, for example by clipping on the walls of said housing 1.
- the cap 40 has an opening 41 in view of the outlet orifice 20 and two folded tabs 42 coming into locking abutment against the terminal internal faces of the casing 9.
- the tabs 42 have at their ends two support elements, for example discs, intended to be inserted into holes 43 formed axially in the roller 21.
- the cap 40 thus serves as a support means for the roller 21 which can thus be easily removed from the cap 40 for the purpose of changing or cleaning.
- the fact of having a removable cap 40 facilitates cleaning, eliminates the need to provide the closure cap 31 with its seal, and makes the filling operation easier.
- the walls of the reservoir 8 have, at the outlet orifice 20, an external flange 44 comprising inclined sides in the thickness of which are provided at least two, and preferably four deposition slots 45.
- the latter are advantageously arranged in the corners of the outlet orifice 20, at the junctions between the different faces of the casing 9.
- the slots 45 allow, during the flow of the wax, to create at their level, an excess application thickness forming a lateral bead on the strip of wax applied. The latter is then easier to remove.
- the use of four slots allows operation in both directions of the applicator, that is to say a rotation in both directions of the roller 21 without disturbing the air-wax system necessary for the correct application of the wax film. .
- the user after having introduced a load of a hot-melt product into the reservoir 8, for example depilatory wax, in the form of a relatively solid bar of wax, puts the applicator under electrical voltage, preferably under the highest voltage if the applicator has a dual-voltage switch.
- the wax mass is then subjected to the heat flux generated by the envelope 9.
- the solid wax mass in particular its lower part therefore becomes progressively liquid or at least substantially liquid, so that the roller 21 which could be glued to cold at the walls of the housing 1 or of the casing 9 dissociates from it. This separation then allows the passage of a thin film of wax through the orifice 20.
- the user who has previously grabbed the applicator can then start applying the wax by passing the roller on his skin.
- the fact of using a heating jacket 9 makes it possible to distribute the temperature uniformly throughout the mass of the wax, which ensures a rapid rise in temperature, then thereafter optimal regulation of the temperature of application of the wax. .
- the variant embodiment shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 differs from the preceding variants only by producing an outlet orifice 20 in the form of a slot, and by using an applicator means 18 consisting of a deformable tip 35
- the latter has a lower application face 36, in which the slot 20 is formed, preferably rectilinear.
- the application force allows the deformation of the tip 35 and the widening of the slot 20 as shown in FIG. 8.
- the wax can then flow through the orifice forming slot 20 and is spread by the front part of the lower application face 36.
- FIG. 9 shows an alternative embodiment according to which the orifice 20 forming a slot is arranged in the vicinity of the front part of the application face 36.
- the thermal regulation of the applicator can be obtained by giving the casing 9 a variable thickness, preferably greater in the vicinity of the outlet orifice 20, and for example at the level of sections 2 and / or 3.
- the increase in the thickness of the envelope 9 at the outlet orifice 20 can be continuous or discontinuous, ie regular or not.
- a series of internal ribs (not shown in the figures) can be provided for this purpose in the thickness of the envelope 9 in order to punctually increase the electric power and the conduction between the two opposite electrodes 10.
- roller 21 it is possible to provide for mounting the roller 21 on a rigid support if the material of the housing 1 by its flexibility is not able to support said roller 21.
