Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne le maquillage et le soin de la peau ou des ongles et plus particulièrement, mais non exclusivement, le maquillage dit « French manucure » qui consiste à déposer un produit de couleur blanche à l'extrémité d'ongles vernis pour imiter le blanc des ongles.The present invention relates to the make-up and care of the skin or nails and more particularly, but not exclusively, the so-called "French manicure" which consists of depositing a white product at the end of nail varnish to imitate the white nails.
Les applicateurs à pointe feutre permettent généralement de déposer un trait d'intensité régulière en produit, mais il est difficile avec ces applicateurs de déposer des compositions riches en pigments, lesquels sont retenus par les fibres du feutre.Felt tip applicators generally allow a product of regular intensity to be deposited, but it is difficult with these applicators to deposit compositions rich in pigments, which are retained by the fibers of the felt.
Les pinceaux conviennent mieux à l'application de compositions pigmentées.Brushes are more suitable for the application of pigmented compositions.
Toutefois, il est difficile avec les pinceaux connus de déposer un trait régulier de produit car ce dernier tend à former une goutte à l'extrémité du pinceau.However, it is difficult with the known brushes to deposit a regular line of product because it tends to form a drop at the end of the brush.
Les pinceaux de section cylindrique ou aplatie, à extrémité droite, présentent un excès de produit et le résultat de maquillage n'est pas entièrement satisfaisant.Brushes of cylindrical or flattened section, right end, have an excess of product and the result of makeup is not entirely satisfactory.
Ceux légèrement biseautés en bout ne conviennent pas davantage, le débit de produit à la pointe étant encore trop important.Those slightly beveled end are also not suitable, the product flow at the tip is still too important.
Enfin, les pinceaux à pointe centrale effilée présentent certes une goutte plus fine en bout mais la viscosité du produit fait souvent que cette goutte est quand même trop épaisse pour l'obtention d'un résultat complètement satisfaisant.Finally, the tapered central tip brushes certainly have a finer drop end but the viscosity of the product often makes the drop is still too thick to obtain a completely satisfactory result.
Les demandes de brevet européen EP 0 556 081, EP 0 651 955, EP 0 746 992 et EP 1 462 023 décrivent ainsi des applicateurs de vernis à ongles qui ne sont pas particulièrement adaptés à déposer un trait d'intensité régulière de produit.European patent applications EP 0 556 081, EP 0 651 955, EP 0 746 992 and EP 1 462 023 thus describe nail varnish applicators which are not particularly suitable for depositing a line of regular intensity of product.
Par ailleurs, les brevets GB 1 083 891 et US 4 998 315 décrivent des applicateurs de vernis à ongles présentant une section transversale allongée suivant un axe de plus grande longueur et une face biseautée lorsqu'observés suivant cet axe.Moreover, patents GB 1 083 891 and US Pat. No. 4,998,315 describe nail varnish applicators having an elongated cross-section along an axis of greater length and a bevelled face when observed along this axis.
Enfin, la demande DE 1 0043930 divulgue un applicateur de vernis à ongles présentant une section transversale de forme circulaire, pouvant être biseautée suivant un angle de 55°.Finally, the application DE 1 0043930 discloses a nail polish applicator having a cross section of circular shape, which can be beveled at an angle of 55 °.
La présente invention vise notamment à faciliter la réalisation d'un maquillage « French manucure » au moyen d'un pinceau et plus généralement à permettre le dépôt d'un trait de produit d'intensité régulière sur la peau ou les ongles, que la largeur de ce trait soit constante ou non.The present invention aims in particular to facilitate the making of a makeup "French manicure" by means of a brush and more generally to allow the deposit of a product line of regular intensity on the skin or nails, that the width this trait is constant or not.
L'invention a ainsi pour objet, selon l'un de ses aspects, un applicateur comportant :
- une tige,
- un élément de fermeture d'un récipient à une première extrémité de la tige,
- un faisceau de poils à une deuxième extrémité de la tige, opposée à la première, ce faisceau de poils ayant une extrémité biseautée, l'angle au sommet du biseau étant compris entre environ 10° et environ 35°, et de préférence entre environ 15° et environ 30°, mieux encore entre 16° et 23°.
- a rod,
- a closure member of a container at a first end of the stem,
- a bundle of bristles at a second end of the shank, opposite to the former, this bundle of bristles having a tapered end, the apex angle of the bevel being between about 10 ° and about 35 °, and preferably about 15 ° ° and about 30 °, better still between 16 ° and 23 °.
Le faisceau de poils peut présenter une section transversale allongée selon un axe X de plus grande longueur et, lorsqu'observé perpendiculairement à l'axe X de plus grande longueur, présente l'extrémité biseautée.The bundle of bristles may have an elongated cross section along an axis X of greater length and, when observed perpendicular to the X axis of greater length, has the beveled end.
Grâce à l'invention, la goutte de produit qui se forme à l'extrémité du pinceau après essorage de la pointe est suffisamment éloignée de cette pointe, compte tenu de la pente relativement élevée du biseau, pour que la pointe puisse être utilisée sans arrivée excessive de produit au cours de l'application.Thanks to the invention, the drop of product that forms at the end of the brush after spinning of the tip is sufficiently far from this point, given the relatively high slope of the bevel, so that the tip can be used without arrival excessive product during the application.
En d'autres termes, l'invention permet de créer une rupture capillaire à l'extrémité du pinceau.In other words, the invention makes it possible to create a capillary rupture at the end of the brush.
Ainsi, l'utilisateur peut parvenir à contrôler plus facilement l'épaisseur de produit déposée et la formation d'une couche d'épaisseur continue est favorisée.Thus, the user can achieve easier control of the deposited product thickness and the formation of a layer of continuous thickness is favored.
Le produit tendant à s'accumuler à l'extrémité du pinceau peut néanmoins alimenter la pointe lors de l'application, notamment lorsque le faisceau est déformé par appui sur l'ongle ou la peau.The product tending to accumulate at the end of the brush may nevertheless feed the tip during application, especially when the beam is deformed by pressing on the nail or the skin.
L'épaisseur de la pointe du faisceau, mesurée dans la direction de l'axe X, peut être inférieure à 1/3 de la largeur maximale du faisceau de poils selon l'axe X, voire inférieure à 1/4 de la largeur maximale du faisceau de poils selon l'axe X.The thickness of the beam tip, measured in the direction of the X axis, may be less than 1/3 of the maximum width of the pile bundle along the X axis, or less than 1/4 of the maximum width of the hair bundle along the X axis.
De préférence, le faisceau de poils présente, dans une section transversale, une forme générale aplatie, étant par exemple de section sensiblement ovale ou rectangulaire.Preferably, the bundle of bristles has, in a cross section, a generally flattened shape, being for example of substantially oval or rectangular section.
La section transversale du faisceau de poils peut ne pas être circulaire.The cross section of the pile bundle may not be circular.
Le faisceau de poils, lorsqu'observé perpendiculairement à l'axe X de plus grande longueur, peut être dépourvu de rebord ou de décrochement.The bundle of bristles, when observed perpendicular to the X axis of greater length, may be devoid of rim or recess.
De préférence encore, la tige comporte au moins une rainure débouchant sensiblement à mi-largeur du faisceau de poils, par exemple une rainure longitudinale, laquelle peut s'étendre par exemple sur une majeure partie de la longueur de la tige.More preferably, the rod comprises at least one groove opening substantially half-width of the bundle of bristles, for example a longitudinal groove, which may extend for example over a major part of the length of the rod.
Lorsque la tige comporte une telle rainure, le produit s'écoulant le long de la tige tend à gagner préférentiellement une région centrale du pinceau, ce qui permet de réduire encore davantage le risque d'un excès de produit à la pointe de celui-ci.When the rod has such a groove, the product flowing along the rod tends to gain preferentially a central region of the brush, which further reduces the risk of excess product at the tip thereof .
Dans un exemple de réalisation, la tige comporte deux rainures longitudinales débouchant sensiblement à mi-largeur du faisceau de poils et disposées à l'opposé l'une de l'autre sur la tige.In an exemplary embodiment, the rod comprises two longitudinal grooves opening substantially at half the width of the bundle of bristles and disposed opposite one another on the rod.
La tige peut comporter un logement présentant une section transversale oblongue, notamment rectangulaire ou ovale, dans lequel est reçu le faisceau de poils, ce qui peut faciliter la formation d'un faisceau de forme générale aplatie.The rod may comprise a housing having an oblong, in particular rectangular or oval, cross section in which the bundle of bristles is received, which may facilitate the formation of a generally flattened beam.
La tige peut présenter une section transversale constante.The rod may have a constant cross section.
Le faisceau de poils comporte par exemple au moins une touffe de poils agrafée dans le logement. La fixation des poils peut encore s'effectuer autrement que par agrafage, par exemple par matriçage de la tige, collage, soudage ou surmoulage.The bundle of bristles comprises for example at least one tuft of bristles stapled in the housing. The attachment of the bristles can still be done otherwise than by stapling, for example by stamping the rod, gluing, welding or overmolding.
Le faisceau de poils est avantageusement empesé avant la première utilisation, ce qui peut notamment faciliter la mise en place mécanisée de l'applicateur sur un récipient correspondant et permettre également d'éviter un endommagement des poils au cours des manipulations précédant le montage de l'applicateur sur le récipient.The bundle of bristles is advantageously starched before the first use, which may especially facilitate the mechanized placement of the applicator on a corresponding container and also to prevent damage to the bristles during handling prior to assembly of the applicator on the container.
La tige peut comporter un embout servant à la fixation dans l'élément de fermeture, cet embout étant par exemple tubulaire. La tige peut encore se raccorder autrement à l'élément de fermeture, étant par exemple réalisée d'un seul tenant avec celui-ci.The rod may comprise a tip for fixing in the closure element, this nozzle being for example tubular. The rod can still be connected differently to the closure element, being for example made in one piece with it.
L'élément de fermeture peut être agencé pour se fixer par vissage sur le récipient, mais en variante la fixation peut s'effectuer autrement, par exemple par encliquetage ou friction, ou encore à l'aide d'une pièce de maintien annexe.The closure member may be arranged to be screwed to the container, but alternatively the attachment may be effected otherwise, for example by snapping or friction, or with the aid of an auxiliary holding piece.
Un essoreur peut être disposé dans le col du flacon, le cas échéant.A wiper may be disposed in the neck of the bottle, if any.
La tige peut être rigide ou souple, et comporter ou non une articulation ou une région de plus grande déformabilité. Une tige rigide peut contribuer à améliorer la précision du maquillage.The rod may be rigid or flexible, and may or may not include a joint or region of greater deformability. A stiff rod can help improve makeup accuracy.
Dans un exemple de réalisation, la pointe du faisceau est décalée latéralement relativement à l'axe longitudinal de la tige.In an exemplary embodiment, the beam tip is shifted laterally relative to the longitudinal axis of the rod.
La longueur apparente du faisceau est par exemple comprise entre 10 mm et 20 mm.The apparent length of the beam is for example between 10 mm and 20 mm.
Les poils peuvent être effilés par meulage.The bristles can be tapered by grinding.
Les poils utilisés présentent par exemple une section de diamètre compris entre 6/100 et 20/100 mm, par exemple de l'ordre de 8/100 mm.The bristles used have, for example, a section with a diameter of between 6/100 and 20/100 mm, for example of the order of 8/100 mm.
Les poils peuvent être de sections et/ou formes identiques ou non, creux ou pleins, à rainure ou non, effilés en bout ou non, et mélangés si nécessaire.The bristles may be of sections and / or forms identical or not, hollow or solid, grooved or not, tapered end or not, and mixed if necessary.
Le faisceau peut comporter un mélange de poils ayant différentes natures.The beam may comprise a mixture of hairs of different natures.
Les poils peuvent être réalisés par exemple dans l'une des matières suivantes : PA, PET, PTFE, PBT, PP, PS, POM, cette liste n'étant pas limitative.The bristles can be made for example in one of the following materials: PA, PET, PTFE, PBT, PP, PS, POM, this list is not limiting.
L'invention a encore pour objet, selon un autre de ses aspects, un applicateur comportant une tige portant un faisceau de poils de préférence de section transversale sensiblement aplatie, le faisceau comportant d'un côté des poils longs et de l'autre côté des poils courts, la différence de longueur entre les poils longs et les poils courts excédant de préférence 6 mm. La longueur des poils longs est par exemple supérieure à 10 mm et celle des poils courts inférieure à 6 mm. Les extrémités libres des poils du faisceau peuvent former un biseau, dont l'angle est par exemple compris entre 10° et 35°.Another aspect of the invention is an applicator comprising a rod carrying a bundle of bristles, preferably of substantially flattened cross-section, the bundle having on one side long bristles and on the other side short hairs, the difference in length between long hairs and short hairs exceeding preferably 6 mm. The length of the long hairs is for example greater than 10 mm and that of the short hairs less than 6 mm. The free ends of the bristles of the beam may form a bevel, whose angle is for example between 10 ° and 35 °.
L'invention a encore pour objet, selon un autre de ses aspects, un dispositif de conditionnement et d'application comportant un applicateur tel que défini plus haut et un récipient sur lequel peut se fixer l'applicateur.The invention further relates, in another of its aspects, a packaging device and application comprising an applicator as defined above and a container on which the applicator can be fixed.
Ce récipient contient par exemple une composition à appliquer sur les ongles ou la peau, pouvant comporter des pigments, notamment un vernis à ongles de couleur blanche.This container contains for example a composition to be applied to the nails or the skin, which may include pigments, including a white nail polish.
Le récipient peut être en verre ou en tout autre matériau adapté à contenir la composition.The container may be of glass or any other material adapted to contain the composition.
L'invention a encore pour objet, selon un autre de ses aspects, un procédé de maquillage dans lequel on dépose en utilisant la pointe d'un applicateur tel que défini plus haut un trait de produit sur la peau ou les ongles.The invention further relates, in another of its aspects, a makeup process in which is deposited using the tip of an applicator as defined above a product line on the skin or nails.
Ce procédé comprend par exemple l'étape consistant à dessiner le blanc des ongles en utilisant la pointe de l'applicateur.This method includes, for example, the step of drawing the white of the nails using the tip of the applicator.
L'invention a encore pour objet, selon un autre de ses aspects, un applicateur comportant :
- une tige,
- un faisceau de poils à une extrémité de la tige, ce faisceau ayant une extrémité dont la forme est choisie de manière à former une pointe servant à déposer un trait de produit, la forme de l'extrémité du faisceau permettant à la pointe d'être épargnée par le produit tendant à gagner par gravité l'extrémité du faisceau lorsque l'applicateur est maintenu vertical après essorage de la pointe.
- a rod,
- a bundle of bristles at one end of the rod, this bundle having an end whose shape is selected to form a tip for depositing a product line, the shape of the end of the bundle allowing the tip to be spared by the product tending to gravity win the end of the beam when the applicator is held vertical after spinning the tip.
L'invention pourra être mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, d'exemples de mise en oeuvre non limitatifs de celle-ci, et à l'examen du dessin annexé, qui fait partie intégrante de la description, sur lequel :

Le dispositif 1 de conditionnement et d'application représenté sur les figures 1 et 2 comporte d'une part un récipient 3 contenant une composition cosmétique V à appliquer sur les ongles, par exemple un vernis pigmenté de couleur blanche, et d'autre part un applicateur 2 destiné à l'application du produit V et pouvant se fixer sur le récipient 3 en l'absence d'utilisation pour fermer de manière étanche celui-ci.The device 1 of packaging and application shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises firstly a
Le récipient 3 comporte dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit un corps 4 réalisé en verre, pourvu supérieurement d'un col 5 fileté extérieurement, sur lequel peut se visser un élément de fermeture 6.The
L'applicateur 2 comporte une surcapsule 7 dans laquelle est inséré l'élément de fermeture 6 et une tige 8 d'axe longitudinal Y, comportant à son extrémité supérieure un embout tubulaire 9 inséré dans un logement 10 de forme correspondante de l'élément de fermeture 6.The
La tige 8 comporte également une portion tronconique 12 se raccordant à un plateau 13 prolongé supérieurement par l'embout 9.The
Le plateau 13 vient reposer axialement contre l'extrémité supérieure 15 du col 5 lorsque le récipient 1 est fermé, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 2, et peut ainsi contribuer à l'étanchéité de la fermeture du récipient.The
Le récipient 3 peut contenir une bille 17 permettant d'homogénéiser le produit V avant l'utilisation.The
La tige 8 présente à son extrémité inférieure un logement 20 qui reçoit un faisceau de poils 21.The
On peut voir sur la figure 3 que le logement 20 présente, en section transversale, une forme oblongue, par exemple rectangulaire, allongée selon un grand axe X perpendiculaire à l'axe Y.It can be seen in Figure 3 that the
Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 6, le faisceau de poils, lorsqu'observé suivant l'axe X, présente par exemple une extrémité sensiblement droite.As can be seen in Figure 6, the hair bundle, when observed along the X axis, for example has a substantially straight end.
Dans l'exemple considéré, le faisceau de poils 21 est constitué par une touffe de poils repliée en deux et fixée au fond du logement 20 par une agrafe 23, laquelle est par exemple orientée parallèlement à l'axe X.In the example, the bundle of
La tige 8 présente en section transversale une forme également oblongue, allongée selon le même grand axe X, avec sur deux faces principales opposées des rainures 25.The
La tige 8 peut présenter, autour du logement 1, une épaisseur de matière e variable, comme illustré.The
Au-dessus du logement 20, la tige peut présenter une section transversale pleine, comme illustré à la figure 4.Above the
La forme oblongue du logement 20 confère au faisceau de poils 21 une forme générale aplatie en section transversale, par exemple sensiblement rectangulaire ou ovale, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 5.The oblong shape of the
Dans l'exemple considéré, chaque rainure 25 débouche inférieurement sensiblement à mi-largeur du faisceau de poils 21, comme illustré à la figure 7.In the example considered, each
Sur cette figure, on peut voir que le faisceau 21, lorsqu'il est observé dans une direction perpendiculaire aux axes X et Y, présente une forme générale en biseau avec une pointe 27 à l'extrémité inférieure du faisceau 21.In this figure, it can be seen that the
L'angle α au sommet du biseau est par exemple compris entre 10° et 35°, étant par exemple voisin de 20° environ dans l'exemple considéré.The angle α at the apex of the bevel is for example between 10 ° and 35 °, being for example close to 20 ° in the example in question.
Le faisceau 21 présente un contour qui, sur la figure 7, va en s'élargissant depuis la tige 8 et la pointe 27 est décalée latéralement par rapport à l'axe longitudinal Y.The
La distance m mesurée le long de l'axe longitudinal Y, séparant le sommet du biseau défini par les poils les plus longs et la tige 8, est par exemple comprise entre 10 et 20 mm, étant par exemple voisine de 17 mm.The distance m measured along the longitudinal axis Y, separating the apex of the bevel defined by the longer hairs and the
La distance n mesurée également parallèlement à l'axe Y, entre la tige 8 et le coin supérieur 30 de la face d'extrémité 29 défmi par les extrémités des poils les plus courts, est par exemple comprise entre 5 et 10 mm, par exemple inférieure à 8 mm, l'écart m-n étant de préférence supérieur ou égal à 6 mm. La longueur t de la face d'extrémité 29 sensiblement plane dans l'exemple illustré est par exemple supérieure à 6 mm. La largeur ω à la base du biseau, c'est-à-dire à hauteur du coin 30, est par exemple comprise entre 2 et 4 mm environ.The distance n also measured parallel to the Y axis, between the
De préférence, avant le montage de l'applicateur 2 dans le récipient 3, le faisceau de poils 21 est empesé au moyen d'une substance qui se dissout ensuite dans le produit V. Cela permet d'éviter aux poils d'être endommagés et facilite également l'insertion du faisceau 21 à travers le col 5 du récipient.Preferably, before mounting the
L'applicateur 2 peut s'utiliser de la manière suivante.The
Après avoir mélangé le produit V par exemple en secouant le dispositif 1, l'applicateur 2 est séparé du récipient 3 et l'utilisateur peut essorer le pinceau sur le bord du col 5.After mixing the product V for example by shaking the device 1, the
Lorsque l'applicateur est maintenu verticalement, la goutte G de produit V qui tend à se former, comme illustré en pointillés sur la figure 7, reste distante de la pointe 27.When the applicator is held vertically, the drop G of product V which tends to form, as shown in dashed lines in FIG. 7, remains distant from the
L'utilisateur peut dessiner le blanc C de l'ongle avec la pointe 27, comme illustré sur la figure 8. L'utilisateur peut par exemple utiliser pour déposer le produit le bout inférieur de la face d'extrémité 29 en l'amenant au contact de l'ongle, la tige étant droite. En variante, l'utilisateur peut encore se servir du dos 33 du faisceau 21, le faisceau 21 étant inversé. L'utilisateur peut encore se servir d'une portion latérale de la pointe 27 ou utiliser encore autrement l'applicateur, selon le motif à tracer.The user can draw the white C of the nail with the
Le produit V qui s'écoule le long de la tige sous l'effet de la gravité peut s'arrêter sensiblement au centre de la face d'extrémité 29 et n'alimenter la pointe 27 que lorsque le pinceau est déformé par appui sur l'ongle, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur de déposer le produit avec une intensité continue.The product V which flows along the rod under the effect of gravity can stop substantially in the center of the
Diverses modifications peuvent être apportées à l'invention.Various modifications may be made to the invention.
Par exemple, la tige 8 peut être réalisée sans les rainures 25, comme illustré à la figure 9, ce qui est toutefois moins favorable à la précision du maquillage.For example, the
Le faisceau 21 peut présenter d'autres formes que celle illustrée à la figure 7, par exemple comporter une troncature ou un arrondi au niveau de la pointe 27, comme illustré à la figure 12.The
La face d'extrémité 29 peut ne pas être sensiblement plane mais généralement convexe ou concave vers l'extérieur, comme illustré sur les figures 10 et 11. Dans ces configurations, l'angle α peut être mesuré entre le dos 33 du faisceau 21 et la tangente à la face d'extrémité 29, au niveau de la pointe 27, dans le plan des axes X et Y.The end face 29 may not be substantially flat but generally convex or concave outwards, as illustrated in FIGS. 10 and 11. In these configurations, the angle α may be measured between the back 33 of the
On peut utiliser diverses sortes de poils.Various types of hair can be used.
Dans les exemples illustrés, des poils de section pleine circulaire de 8/100 mm de diamètre sont utilisés, mais d'autres poils de sections différentes et/ou de tailles différentes peuvent les remplacer. La nature des poils sera par exemple choisie en fonction de celle du produit à appliquer. Un mélange de poils peut être utilisé, le cas échéant. Les poils peuvent être en PA, PET, PTFE, PP, PS, POM, PBT, ou en d'autres matières naturelles ou synthétiques.In the illustrated examples, full circular section bristles of 8/100 mm diameter are used, but other bristles of different sections and / or different sizes may replace them. The nature of the bristles will for example be chosen according to that of the product to be applied. A mixture of hairs can be used, if necessary. The bristles can be PA, PET, PTFE, PP, PS, POM, PBT, or other natural or synthetic materials.
Les poils peuvent présenter des extrémités effilées ou non.The bristles may have tapered ends or not.
Le col du récipient peut recevoir un essoreur 40, comme illustré sur la figure 13.The neck of the container may receive a
Dans toute la description y compris les revendications, l'expression « comportant un » doit être comprise comme étant synonyme de « comportant au moins un », sauf si le contraire est spécifié.Throughout the description including the claims, the phrase "having one" should be understood as being synonymous with "having at least one", unless the opposite is specified.
L'expression « compris entre » doit s'entendre bornes incluses.The expression "between" must be understood as inclusive.
