Definitions

  • the invention relates to a brush, in particular a brush for applying a product.
  • cosmetic on keratin fibers in particular for applying mascara to the eyelashes or a dye on the hair, as well as a makeup device comprising this brush, the brush having a curved core.
  • a brush for applying a cosmetic product comprises a elongated core formed by the helical winding of two branches of a metal wire, which was folded into a U before the branches were twisted, hairs implanted radially in this core and clamped between these coiled branches.
  • Such brushes can be of various shapes and include cutouts.
  • brushes having the shape of a torus fragment these brushes being obtained by the torsional arc of the core of a cylindrical brush.
  • Such brushes have a convex face, a concave face and two substantially flat.
  • Such brushes are not very easy to handle: in fact, if the user does turn the rod of such a brush between its fingers around its axis, to apply a product on the eyelashes for example, it must constantly correct the distance of the brush eyelashes. It is difficult with these brushes, to make up the corner of the eye without burrs on the eyelids and the wing of the nose.
  • it has been found that such a brush charges the eyelashes. by smoothing them little. Brushes obtained by the torsion in an arc of a circle of the soul of a cylindro-conical brush have the same disadvantages.
  • the invention aims to provide a brush which remains simple and economical to apply and practical to use.
  • the Applicant unexpectedly discovered new brushes for applying a cosmetic product, which when used to apply a mascara on the eyelashes makes it possible to obtain a very curved, very elongated makeup with a product distributed over the entire length of the eyelash. These brushes are also of a very easy handling and make it easy to make up the corner of the eye.
  • the subject of the invention is a brush comprising a straight rod defining an axis (X-X) main ; a flexible core, defining the length of the brush, this core comprising first and second ends, the first end being integral with the rod; hairs implanted radially in this core, the end of the hairs defining the envelope surface of the brush, this envelope surface having a first and a second ends, characterized in that the core describes a curve (C) in a plane of curvature (P) and that the envelope surface of the brush has on at least part of its length, a cross section of elongated shape along a larger axis length (Z-Z) perpendicular to the plane of curvature (P).
  • C curve
  • Z-Z axis length
  • the cross section of the envelope surface is understood to mean a section of the surface envelope in a plane perpendicular to the core.
  • the curve (C) is substantially circular.
  • the part of the brush is located in the concavity of the curve (C) forms a hollow.
  • the part of the brush is lying on the opposite side forms the back of the brush.
  • the cross sections of the envelope surface of the brush being elongated, along the axis of greatest length, in the direction perpendicular to the plane (P) of torsion of the core, the brush according to the invention has two wide flat surfaces, one in the hollow of the brush, the other in the back of the brush.
  • the face located in the hollow of the brush is very close by its shape eyelash contour. In addition, it has short bristles and therefore not very flexible. She can therefore take care of the eyelashes over the entire width of the eyelid, product, lengthen and curl them.
  • the distance between the two faces being smaller that the width of the brush, it can easily slip into the corner of the eye to make up the eyelashes, without burrs around the corner of the eye.
  • the sides of the brush which have longer, and therefore more flexible, hairs than the faces, but which are less wide, allow very effective combing and separation of eyelashes.
  • the back of the brush like the hollow, allows to spread the makeup or care product in supporting the eyelash over a large part of the length of the eyelash. This back being curved, it promotes the curling of the eyelash.
  • the core is central with respect to each cross section.
  • the cross section has at least two sides along the longest axis (Z-Z), these sides being substantially parallel to the axis (Z-Z).
  • the cross section has at least two sides along the longest axis (Z-Z), these sides being convex.
  • the sides of the section cross have two ends, the width of the section along the axis (Y-Y), perpendicular to the longest axis (Z-Z), at these ends being substantially zero.
  • the cross section has at least two sides along the axis (Y-Y), axis perpendicular to the axis of greatest length (Z-Z), these sides being convex in shape.
  • the cross section has a maximum width (D) along the axis of greatest length (ZZ) and a maximum width (d) along the axis (YY), D and d verifying the relationship: D> 1.5d
  • D and d verify the relation: D> 2d
  • the greatest length D can vary along the core.
  • brushes are preferred whose surface envelope has a cross section elongated over at least 50% and preferably 75%, of its length.
  • the brushes according to the invention are provided so that for each cross section, the axis of greatest length and the axis of greatest width are perpendicular.
  • the ends of the core are aligned on the X-X axis.
  • a secondary torsion is printed at the end of the core which is integral with the rod in order to align the second end of the core on the main axis (XX).
  • steps (i) and (ii) are carried out so that the core is central with respect to the faces of the straight clipped brush.
  • the starting brush is mowed so that the surface envelope has a cross section elongated over at least 50%, and preferably 75% of its length.
  • step (iii) is carried out so as to imparting a substantially circular main torsion to the core.
  • the bristles of the brushes according to the invention can be of any kind: bristles different lengths, different diameters or different sections and materials different, hairs with tapered ends, fork or pin head shape, or having undergone any kind of treatment known to those skilled in the art.
  • the brush according to the invention comprises an alternation of rows of short hairs and long hairs, only long hairs being taken into account for define the envelope surface of the brush.
  • Such a variant of the invention allows to accentuate the loading of the eyelash with product by the brush of the invention.
  • the helical winding of the two branches of the metallic wire forming the core can be planned with a step to the right, as is usually expected in the manufacture of makeup brushes, or step left, as taught by demand FR-A-2701198.
  • the branches of the soul is twisted by turning to the left to form turns which turn in direction of clock around the core when one progresses from the rod towards the end of the brush.
  • the invention also relates to a makeup device comprising a reservoir for mascara and a mascara applicator as described above.
  • the flexibility of the hairs and the flexibility of the core can be adjusted so as to promote or to counter the spin of the brush.
  • Figures 1, 1A and 2A are perspective views of brushes that can be used to make a brush according to the invention.
  • Figures 1B and 2B are perspective views of brushes respectively along 1A and 2A which have been mowed according to step (ii) of the method according to the invention.
  • Figures 1C and 2C are sections along the IC-IC and IIC-IIC planes of the brushes shown in Figures 1B and 2B respectively.
  • FIGS. 1D, 1E and 2D are perspective views of brushes according to the invention, manufactured according to the method according to the invention, respectively from brushes shown in Figures 1A and 2A.

  • Figure 3 is a sectional view of a device for making up the eyes.
  • the brush 100 shown in Figures 1 and 1A has a straight rod 101 defining a main axis X-X.
  • a core 102 (which has been represented in these figures although it either inside the brush) elongated, formed by the helical winding of two branches of a metallic wire 103 which has been folded in a U before the branches are twisted.
  • the axis of the core 102 coincides with the main axis X-X.
  • Hairs 104 are implanted radially between the branches of the wire 103. When the branches of the wire 103 are twisted, the bristles are clamped and held between the helical turns of the core 102.
  • the ends of the bristles 104 define the surface 105 of the brush: it is a surface of convex revolution which has the shape of a rugby ball and whose ends are constituted by two straight sections: the disc 106.a, of center 108.a and the disc 106.b from center 108.b.
  • FIG. 1A Using a clipper, two substantially flat parallel faces are cut from the brush of FIG. 1A over almost the entire length (measured along the axis X-X) of the brush. In FIG. 1A is shown the intersection ( ⁇ ) of the surface 105 of the brush with the mowing plan. We obtain a clipped brush shown in FIGS. 1B and 1 C.
  • the brush shown in FIGS. 1B and 1C has two faces 119 parallel between them and parallel to the X-X axis. These two faces are equidistant from the core 112. The distance between the two faces is d. The two faces are connected by rounded edges 120. On the area where the faces 119 were cut, the sections of the following brush a plane perpendicular to X-X consist of curves 115c, represented on the Figure 1C, substantially rectangular, of great length D along the axis of plus greater length Z-Z and greater width d measured along the axis of greater width Y-Y with D> 1.5d.
