Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general technical field of apparatus for caring for the body, and in particular for massaging the face, of the type with mechanical action aimed at firming or toning the skin and / or the muscle tissue.
  • the present invention relates to a mechanical action device for massaging the face, comprising in combination a housing associated with a manual gripping member, housing in which is housed a motor member connected to at least one output shaft capable of receiving at least one facial care accessory intended to be driven by the shaft on the one hand, and to be applied to an area of the face to be treated on the other hand.
  • facial care device according to the invention is not not limited to this specific application, even if it is particularly studied and designed for this application.
  • Apparatus for surface treatment of the skin, or for applying make-up products such as that described for example in FR-A-1281338, are also known, which, due to their design, may possibly be adapted to a treatment of facial.
  • These are, for example, manual devices optionally provided with a drive shaft driven by a motor, the shaft carrying a brush or a sponge which is moved, for example by rotation on the skin and for example on the face.
  • the essential object of such devices is to ensure, by peeling, the evacuation of dead skin cells, and to make the skin appear smoother by mechanical brushing action.
  • the object of the invention therefore aims to provide a new device allowing the user to implement treatment techniques himself aimed at firming or toning the skin, in particular the skin of the face, in a manner equivalent to manual processing.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a new facial care device with mechanical action making it possible, in a particularly simple manner, to reproduce as faithfully as possible the conventional techniques aimed at firming or toning the body by massage.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a facial care device with mechanical action allowing the user to easily change the treatment accessories to adapt it to each particular case.
  • a machine for facial massage with mechanical action comprising a housing capable of being held in or in the hand, in which is housed a motor member connected to at least two output shafts capable of receiving at least one facial care accessory intended to be driven by the shaft and to be applied to an area of the face, the two output shafts extending substantially one next to the other and at a distance from the housing, and being capable of being driven by the motor member in opposite directions of rotation so as to drive the accessory (s) to generate, a massage bead in the area of application of the or accessories.
  • the apparatus for massaging the face with mechanical action shown in FIG. 1 is more particularly but not exclusively intended for massaging the face, and comprises a housing 1, for example made of a plastic material, capable of being held in or in the hand by the user and the rear part 2 of which forms, for example, a manual gripping member.
  • the housing 1 internally defines a free volume in which is housed a motor member 3, for example electric, said motor comprising a drive shaft 4 terminating in a drive screw 5 secured to a reduction unit 6.
  • the latter comprises by example a first reduction stage comprising a main pinion 7 secured to a main screw 8 disposed between two identical pinions 9a, 9b, rotating in opposite directions, and meshing with said main screw 8.
  • the pinions 9a, 9b respectively drive output shafts 10a, 10b, extending substantially one beside the other and at a distance from each other from the housing 1, and preferably at from the front face 12 of the device.
  • the output shafts 10a, 10b are two in number and preferably extend in the same plane on the one hand, and are substantially parallel on the other go.
  • the housing 1 internally includes a series of storage batteries 13 and for example a power outlet 14 for recharging, and / or operation on a transformer.
  • the pinions 9a, 9b being identical, the output shafts 10a, 10b are driven at the same speed, for example of the order of 120 rpm, but it is obvious that their driving speed may be different.
  • the output shafts 10a, 10b are distant between their axes by about 17 millimeters, and protrude from the front face 12 by about 12 millimeters in order to allow the connection, for example by interlocking with facial care accessories 15 intended to be driven by the shafts 10a, 10b and to be applied to an area of the face.
  • the accessory 15 is formed by a single accessory linked by its ends 16, 17a respectively to each of the two output shafts 10a, 10b and set in motion by the latter.
  • the single accessory 15 is constituted by a flexible cylinder 15a forming a loop between the two output shafts 10a, 10b when the cylinder is mounted and fitted onto said output shafts.
  • the flexible cylinder 15a is formed by a helical spring (not shown in the figures) coated with elastomer.
  • the flexible cylinder 15a is formed so as to constitute a horseshoe loop between the two output shafts 10a, 10b.
  • each of the output shafts 10a, 10b is such that from the underside of the device (not shown in the figures) intended to be close of the face, the generators of each shaft 10a, 10b move away from the lower face in the internal zone where they are opposite, said generators moving towards said lower face in the so-called external zone of the shafts 10a, 10b.
  • the direction of rotation of each output shaft 10a, 10b is respectively denoted F1, F2 in each of FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the care device in accordance with the variant shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is applied to the face, the flexible cylinder 15 being in contact with the skin to define an application zone to be treated materialized by the entire internal surface of the loop formed by said cylinder.
  • the rotation of the shafts 10a, 10b respectively in the directions F1, F2 and of the flexible cylinder 15a causes friction on the skin which pulls the latter towards the center of the loop to form a bead 17 of massage (FIG. 3).
  • the device can simultaneously or not simultaneously with the formation of the bead 17 be moved in all directions of the space on the skin to be treated, and in particular in a direction G coinciding with the axis of the device and of the accessory. single 15 and directed towards the outside of said device from the front face 12.
  • the massage technique thus implemented by the operator himself is analogous to that of rolling since each opposite branch of the single accessory 15 causes pinching the skin forming a bead 17 which is moved when the device moves itself.
  • the care accessory is formed by two separate independent accessories 21, 22, individually connected to each output shaft 10a, 10b respectively.
  • Each accessory 21, 22 consists of a rod 23 provided with an axial bore 24 (FIG. 5a) to allow threading and nesting on each of the shafts 10a, 10b.
  • the end of the rod 23 opposite the coupling end to the shafts 10a, 10b, is secured to a pallet 26, preferably flexible, the fixing of which is obtained, for example, by overmolding of a plastic material.
  • Pallet 26 has a shape, for example flat and circular or spherical, or even similar to a rectangular parallelepiped and is made of a material having a poor coefficient of sliding.
  • the pallet 26 is flat and circular and extends along the main axis of the axial bore 24.
  • the rod 23 comprises, between the pallet 26 and the axial bore 24, a means for adjusting the flexibility of the independent accessories 21, 22, such as a notch 28 constituting a weakening zone of the rod 23 and allowing a deflection of the pallets 26 in the event of abnormal force on the latter.
  • the apparatus according to the invention thus makes it possible, using the presence of two shafts driven in opposite directions and on which one or more rotary accessory (s) are mounted, to reproduce the equivalent of the techniques known in the art.
  • facial treatment such as "roulottage” or "pincé-jaquet” for the creation of a massage bead 17, 30 in the area of application of the single accessory 15 or of the autonomous accessories 21, 22, ie at the level of the loop, or between the pallets 26.
  • the application area is defined between the output shafts 10a, 10b and the accessory (s) 15, 21, 22.
  • the change of care accessories can be carried out in an extremely simple manner, by simple threading of the accessories on the shafts 10a, 10b, this allowing the user to choose the type of treatment he wishes. carry out.
