Definitions

  • the present invention relates to devices intended for treating the hair and especially the hairline.
  • the invention aims to propose a new device allowing in particular to apply such a product.
  • the user can in particular easily apply to the hair a product intended to freeze their base, while they stand on the scalp and therefore obtain the desired volume effect.
  • the device is advantageously made in such a way that the user can, in the same way hand than the one holding the container, operate the lifting device. So the other hand remains available to assist in obtaining the desired hairstyle, for example.
  • the container has a product distribution valve which is actuated by the movement of the lifting member.
  • a product distribution valve which is actuated by the movement of the lifting member.
  • the device includes a separate dispensing tip. of the lifting member, which allows for example to spray the product in a direction substantially perpendicular to the portion of the hair which extends between the leather scalp and uplift organ.
  • the lifting member advantageously comprises a comb, which can for example having at least one row of teeth, or even a single row of teeth. These latter may have aligned bases.
  • the comb may for example include between 2 and 40 teeth, especially between 5 and 20 teeth.
  • the free ends of the teeth can point in a direction substantially opposite to the container, especially during actuation of the lifting member.
  • the hair lifting member can advantageously include a actuation part defining a location on which the user can press to cause relative movement of the lifting member relative to the container.
  • the lifting member is connected by at least one tab at a base part fixed on the container and this tab may have at minus a film hinge.
  • the lifting member may comprise two such legs, each provided with a film hinge and sufficiently spaced apart from one the other to allow the dispensing nozzle to engage with each other during the distribution of the product, after displacement of the lifting member to raise the hair.
  • the device can also include a support part on the scalp, fixed relative to the container.
  • This support part can rest on the scalp when the lifting member is moved to lift the hair and include, for example two rods, which can be parallel and located at equal distance from the end piece distribution.
  • the length of these rods can for example be chosen so that their free end is located substantially at the same level as the base of the comb teeth, before actuation of the lifting member, when the device is observed in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the container.
  • the dispensing nozzle has a stop against which the lifting device can be applied after a displacement of this one.
  • This stop may in particular come into contact with the aforementioned actuating part. of the lifting organ.
  • the dispensing nozzle can be connected to the base part by at least one film hinge, and the abovementioned stop can be located on the side opposite this film hinge, for compared to the distribution valve.
  • the dispensing nozzle can be provided with a nozzle arranged to generate a spray.
  • the product in the container may contain polymers and present a relatively short drying time, for example less than 30 seconds.
  • the comb may include at least one row of teeth, in particular between 2 and 40 teeth.
  • the free ends of the teeth can point in a direction substantially opposite the container, in particular during the actuation of the lifting member.
  • the lifting member can be connected to the base part by at least one leg or even two legs each provided with a film hinge and sufficiently spaced each other to allow the dispensing nozzle to engage with each other during distribution of the product, after displacement of the lifting member to lift the hair.
  • Hair can be kept lifted after dispensing for a time necessary for the product to dry.
  • the device 1 shown in Figure 1 comprises a container 2, containing a product for example rich in polymers and quick drying under gas pressure propellant, and a dispensing head 3 fixed to the container 2 by means of a base part 4.
  • the latter may include, as seen in Figure 3, a mounting skirt 5 snapped onto an annular groove 6 present in the upper part of the container 2.
  • the latter comprises, in the example considered, a cup 7 for supporting a dispensing valve 8, this cup 7 being crimped onto the body of the container 2.
  • the distribution valve 10 comprises, in a conventional manner, a rod of control 11, hollow, a body 12 retained by the cup 7, in which the rod 11 can sink, and a spring 13 for returning the rod 11 to a position in which it is applied by a sealing lip 14 against an annular seal 15. In this position, the lip 14 closes the communication between the interior of the body 12 and a lateral orifice 16 of the rod 11, through which the product can flow out of the container when the rod 11 is pressed.
  • the head 3 also includes, in accordance with one aspect of the invention, a member 20 for lifting the hair and a dispensing nozzle 30.
  • the lifting member 20 comprises a comb 21 and a part actuator 22 on which the user can press to move the comb 21 and thus allow uplift.
  • the comb 21 and the actuating part 22 are made in one piece by plastic molding with two tabs 23 connecting to the base part 4 and each comprising a thinned part 24 defining a film hinge, which allows the comb 21 and the actuating part 22 to pivot about an axis perpendicular to the plane of Figure 3 and the longitudinal axis X of the container 2, when the user presses on the actuating part 22.
  • the basic part 4 can be made in one piece with the legs 23. It is not beyond the scope of this invention when the thinned portion 24 is replaced by any other means of articulation.
  • the comb 21 comprises, in the example illustrated, a row of teeth 25 of which the bases 26 are aligned and the free ends 27 are generally directed in the direction opposite to container 2.
  • the dispensing end piece 30 and the comb 21 are offset along the axis X and the end piece 30 comprises a body 31, of generally frustoconical shape in the example described, provided with an internal channel 32 which opens at its lower end into a housing 33 receiving the end of the control rod 11.
  • This housing 33 extends downwards by a cone 35 facilitating the introduction of the rod 11.
  • the body 31 of the dispensing nozzle 30 receives at its upper end a nozzle 36 and is connected to the base part 4 by a tab 37, produced in one piece with the body 31, this tab 37 comprising a thinned zone 38 defining a hinge movie.
  • the body 31 of the dispensing nozzle 30 can pivot around an axis geometric substantially parallel to that around which the lifting member 20 can to toggle.
  • the tab 37 can be made in one piece with the base part 4. It is possible see in FIG. 3 that the thinned zones 24 and 38 are located on the same side of the device 1, relative to the axis of the control rod 11, which coincides with the axis X.
  • the dispensing end piece 30 is made, on the side opposite the tab 37, with a stop 39 against which the actuating part 22 can come to bear when the user presses it with his index finger I, as can be seen in Figures 4 to 6.
  • the device 1 also comprises, in the example considered, two rods 40 which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis X of the container 2 and which connect to the base part 4, near the mounting skirt 5.
  • the free end 41, of rounded shape, of the rods 40 is located substantially at the level of the base 26 of the teeth before actuation of the lifting member 20, as you can see it in figure 3.
  • the device 1 is used in the following manner.
  • the user having grasped the container 2 with one hand, places his index finger I on the part actuation 22, and slides the comb 21 tangentially to the scalp S for select the part of the hair he wants to straighten, as seen in Figure 4. It can be helped with the rods 40 which bear on the scalp S.
  • the user can press on the part actuation 22 until the latter comes to bear on the stop 39 of the dispensing nozzle 30.
  • the pressure exerted by the index finger I will raise the comb 21, giving it a angle with respect to its initial orientation.
  • the displacement of the lifting member 20 is facilitated to some extent by the presence of the rods 40.
  • the user can release slightly its pressure on the actuating part 22, so that the distribution of product will stop.
  • the user can hold the lifting member 20 in this position intermediate during the time necessary for the product to dry and will thus be able to fix the roots R in the desired position to give the hair the desired volume.
  • the user releases the actuating part 20 it can return to the initial position of FIG. 2, thanks to a certain shape memory of the thinned areas 24.
