Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for applying a cosmetic product, with a holder and an applicator element. It is an applicator, loaded by immersing the applicator element in a reservoir of the cosmetic product becomes.
  • brushes or fiber tips are known for applying lines.
  • this makes it difficult to achieve contour-sharp lines with uniform line width produce. This is especially due to the fluctuating contact pressure during application and by the wear of said applicators by a at Dipping systems usual scrapers.
  • make-up so relatively much time is needed. You often have to stop and the eye area is often irritated. Moreover, that is Make-up often unsatisfactory and it must be corrected.
  • Deerfoot applicators for application to larger surfaces in particular so-called Deerfoot applicators known. Their application zone is comparatively small, which is why they must be reloaded several times by re-immersion until the desired Application result is present. Furthermore, because of the small application zone difficult to cover a larger area with a homogeneous layer thickness, like this for example, when making up lips is required. Furthermore, the order feeling This rather unpleasant, because the application element only more or less on the surface scrapes.
  • the invention is based on the object, the application device of the above to improve the type mentioned.
  • the object is achieved in a device of the aforementioned Art solved by the applicator element is rotatably supported by the holder.
  • the cosmetic product not by “sweeping” applied, but rather by “rolling”.
  • the order is evened out.
  • Applicators increases the effective working surface of the applicator element, which is why it needs to be reloaded less often.
  • the application element is um an axis rotatable whose position with respect to the holder is fixed.
  • the said axis may be transverse or parallel to a longitudinal axis of the holder.
  • the dimensions of the applicator element in the direction of its axis of rotation smaller or larger are as in the direction transverse to the axis of rotation.
  • the application element may in particular have the shape of a wheel.
  • a wheel is particularly easy to apply lines of predetermined width.
  • it may be in the form of a roller, especially if it is to be applied to serve larger areas.
  • the applicator element from a material designed to store cosmetic product. On In this way, the order quantity can be increased again without “Reloading" can be applied.
  • the application element is at least partially porous and / or its surface in the sense of spreading matched to the cosmetic product.
  • the applicator element may according to the invention plastic, such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyamide, metal, ceramic and / or foam. Unless the applicator device To serve for the application of linear contours, it is rather harder choose materials, whereas for surface application may also softer Materials can be used.
  • the application element according to the invention preferably has a sintered material on.
  • the applicator element can be flocked, coated, laminated and / or structured on its surface. It can in particular a structured surface to serve the cosmetic product in the form of patterns applied.
  • the applicator element does not have to be directly attached to the holder. Much more it is also possible to provide a carrier for carrying the application element. In such a Trap will then be rotatably mounted on the holder, the carrier. This results in particular the advantage that possibly as a result of sintering comparatively rough surfaces when twisting the applicator element with respect to the holder undesirable Create frictional forces that could lead to disproportionate wear.
  • the carrier is inventively preferably rotatably mounted on the holder and further preferably has an inner sleeve.
  • the applicator element is sleeve-shaped and the carrier is pressed into the applicator element. This results in a total particularly simple construction.
  • the application device further preferably has a mandrel on the Application element, the carrier and / or the holder on which the holder, the carrier and / or the applicator element is snapped on. That way, the spine can be part of it serve a rotary joint, wherein thereby provided game to reduce friction when turning serves.
  • the applicator device according to the invention is part of a so-called dipping system, i.e. loading of the applicator element by immersion into a corresponding reservoir, which serves as the main memory.
  • a special preferred embodiment of the invention is also a buffer for the cosmetic product provided.
  • the cache may be designed to excess cosmetic product remove from the applicator element and / or cosmetic product on the applicator element to distribute. Both serve to equalize the cosmetic product order. In addition, with appropriate dimensioning the capacity of the applicator be increased again, that is to be reloaded even less.
  • the temporary storage device according to the invention can preferably be designed to To absorb cosmetic product.
  • the buffer integrated into the holder.
  • the holder is preferably provided with a deformable device connected to the grip area.
  • the deformable device can be elastically deformable.
  • the application device according to the invention always automatically turns into one again and again State back, in which the holder and thus the applicator element or its axis of rotation have a predetermined position with respect to the grip area.
  • the deformable device according to the invention preferably has TPE.
  • cosmetic products of any consistency be applied.
  • the cosmetic products can be particularly liquid, pasty or be powdered.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 To the applicator device according to Figures 1 and 2 includes a handle 10, the on a bottle 12 is screwed, by means of a thread 14.
  • a holder 16 In the handle 10, a holder 16 is inserted. Is the handle 10 as shown in the Figures 1 and 2 screwed onto the bottle 12, so the holder 16 projects into an interior 18 of the bottle 12 inside.
  • a scraper 20 In the upper portion of the bottle 12 is a scraper 20.
  • the Interior 18 of the bottle 12 is in accordance with the figures 1 and 2 in half with a Cosmetic product 22 filled, with the one mounted on the holder 16 when immersed Wheel 24 is loaded.
  • the wheel 24 is held on the holder 16 by means of a hub 28. It is in that shown embodiment of sintered PE. Therefore, it is when immersing in the Cosmetic product 22 absorb a certain amount.
  • the dimensions of the scraper 20 on the one hand and the wheel 24 on the other are such that the wheel 24 can pass the scraper without problems.
  • the radial extent of a lip 30 of the scraper 20 corresponds approximately to the radial Overhang of the wheel 24 over the outer contour of the holder 16.
  • the function of the Scraper can optionally by bristles, which are molded, overmoulded or by flocking are supported. This can preferably be achieved by two- or multi-component injection molding technology respectively.
  • a buffer 32 is integrated, which consists of an absorbent Material, such as foam is made.
  • This cache is used for a the removal of excess cosmetic product from the wheel 24, on the other hand also equalization of distribution of the cosmetic product on a wheel 24.
  • the buffer memory 32 becomes when the wheel 24 is rolled over skin, because of its minimal distance to the wheel 24 excess cosmetic product (temporarily) record and elsewhere, i. e. after a roll of the wheel at a certain angle of rotation, the recorded cosmetic product at least partially return to the wheel.
  • the wheel is always in use reloaded again, without it being necessary, the wheel again in the bottle 12 to immerse.
  • the spaces between the wheel 24 and the holder 16, the wheel 24 and, the latch 32 and / or the latch 32 and the holder 16 may be dimensioned so that they capillary forces with respect to the cosmetic product and thus serve as additional or alternative caches.
