Definitions

  • the present invention relates to product applicators, particularly cosmetic product, intended to be glued on a finger to be able to apply of the product on a surface to be treated.
  • Cosmetic product means a product as defined in Directive 93/35 / Council Regulation of 14 June 1993 amending for the sixth time 76/768 / EEC.
  • applicators of substantially flat shape which include a layer of adhesive allowing them to be attached to a finger for application of a product, this is particularly the case of the applicator described in the application for EP 1 374 718.
  • the adhesive surfaces are covered with a backing sheet for protecting the adhesive, the applicator being removed from the carrier sheet before being used.
  • labels adhesives that partially overlap each other.
  • the labels are thus rolled up in a dispenser, without support tape additional, or with only a thread stuck on the adhesive side of labels to connect them to each other and facilitate their separation.
  • the labels are intended to be collected automatically on a production line by an arm that just pushes on the opposite side to the adhesive side of the label in order to take it off the label that is contiguous to it and stick it on a bottle. This type of arrangement is not suitable for applicators of products intended to be glued on a finger.
  • some adhesive articles are intended to be packaged individually with a removable support to protect their adhesive side.
  • This is particularly the case for dressings which comprise a support cut into two overlapping parts to form a gripping area.
  • To take off the dressing from its support it is necessary to grasp the whole of a hand by putting a finger on each of its faces then of fold the assembly so as to grasp the gripping area of the support in order to dissociate.
  • this is not a problem since the dressing does not contain any product.
  • product applicators it is best not to touch the application side on pain of dirtying it and defiling the fingers.
  • the product is disposed on the surface, particularly in the form of a layer of powder, the layer product may crumble if you fold the whole.
  • US 5,713,842 and US 5,840,052 also describe dressings which are intended to be stuck on an area of the human body to protect it.
  • the two portions of the support sheet which overflow the applicator thus form gripping areas that can be grasped to hold the article without touch the surface of application.
  • Part of the support sheet can then be peeled off the applicator by dissociating itself from the other part of the sheet thanks to the weakening zone or the cutout.
  • the adhesive side is then in unobstructed portion to allow the user to affix the fingers of one of his hands, the other hand still holding the portion of the overflowing support sheet the applicator. It is thus easy to stick the applicator on one or more fingers in order to apply product, without risk of damaging the surface application.
  • the support sheet may overflow the applicator over its entire periphery. An offer thus the possibility to the user to enter the support sheet in several locations.
  • the support sheet may be a silicone support, in particular a silicone paper.
  • the weakening zone may be an area of the sheet of lesser thickness extending along a line that may be continuous or discontinuous.
  • the cut can also extend along a line that can be continuous or discontinuous.
  • the weakening zone and the cutting can extend along a line right and / or along a curved line.
  • the applicator may be impregnated with a product to be applied and / or the surface the application of the applicator may be covered with a layer of a product to apply.
  • the product can be a cosmetic product.
  • the applicator may be made of porous or fibrous material, in particular foam of a thermoplastic material, sponge, felt, nonwoven material, or woven material, especially natural fibers, such as cotton.
  • the applicator may be made of an elastically deformable material of to obtain a relatively flexible application.
  • the applicator may have a multilayer structure.
  • the application surface may be covered with a flocking, a nonwoven or of a woven.
  • the adhesive layer may include a hypoallergenic adhesive.
  • the adhesive layer can extend entirely on the face of the applicator opposite to the application surface. Alternatively, the adhesive layer can partially cover the face of the applicator opposite to the surface application.
  • the applicator may have, in section in the direction of the thickness, a shape flattened, the adhesive layer extending substantially parallel to the surface application.
  • the applicator may have, in section in the direction of the thickness, a shape convex, at least on the side of the application surface.
  • the article may have, in front view, a circular shape, or alternatively, a non-circular shape, in particular a shape generally triangular, polygonal, oval, drop of water or almond.
  • the article may include several applicators.
  • the article Before a first use, the article can be housed in a bag.
  • the application surface can, before a first use, be covered with a film reversibly attached to the portion of the sheet support overflowing the applicator.
  • the article according to the invention is particularly useful for the application of a product cosmetic, including a disinfectant product, a sunscreen, a product moisturizer, an anti-wrinkle, a nail polish, a foundation, a blush, a eyeshadow, a lipstick, a makeup remover, a care product capillary, a hair coloring product, a deodorant product or antiperspirant or a perfume.
