Definitions

  • the present invention relates to applicators for applying a product to keratin materials, and in particular to a cosmetic, makeup or care product, for example a mascara.
  • EP 1 351 592 and EP1 384 417 brushes comprising a rigid body on which is molded an application surface of softer material provided with application elements in the form of pins.
  • the body has reliefs allowing the softer part to be retained on the rigid body.
  • the application elements obtained are flexible since they are made of soft material. However, the application elements being retained at their base on a rigid part, they are strongly constrained when they pass especially through a wiper or when they applied on the eyelashes. If the material used is very soft, the application elements may be deformed during their passage through the wiper. In addition, the application elements going to bed while passing through the wiper, they are strongly dewatered so that the product load remaining on the wiped application elements is affected.
  • the document FR2506581 discloses a mascara brush having a tubular shaft and a central shaft extending through the shaft and slidable therein to vary the length of the applicator portion of the brush.
  • the rod projects beyond the handle at an application end so as to receive an elastomeric sleeve for applying the product.
  • the sleeve is retained at the distal end of the stem by a portion of the rivet head-shaped rod.
  • a bellows for applying the product is snapped to the end of the handle. When the rod is slid in the handle, the sleeve or the bellows is deformed so as to vary the application length.
  • the document EP1475013 discloses a mascara brush comprising a rod at the end of which is fixed a twisted core carrying bristles on a portion of its circumference, a sleeve having teeth being fitted around the core empoilée so that the teeth s 'extend in the portion of the circumference that has no hair.
  • the invention aims to solve at least one of these needs.
  • At least a portion of the envelope application area is free with respect to the core means that this portion is not attached or attached to the core.
  • a game even very small, can separate this part of the soul's envelope. This allows this part of the envelope to move, even substantially, relative to the soul when it is applied on its outer surface, especially manually. It can for example be stretched or turn around the soul.
  • the product is applied to keratin materials or to the passage through a wiper, if the outer surface of the envelope is stretched in one direction, its base not being fixed to the core may also substantially stretch in the same direction so that the outer surface is not too deformed.
  • Such a configuration allows to use a very soft material, very flexible, to achieve the envelope without the risk that it is altered when it is mechanically stressed.
  • An applicator is thus obtained which allows a very great softness to the application.
  • these application elements have a very high flexibility.
  • the envelope is sandwiched between the rod and the core makes it possible to immobilize the envelope correctly. This is particularly advantageous when the envelope is made of flexible material, soft, it is then difficult to immobilize.
  • the attachment zone of the outer casing may for example be fixed to the rod by crimping, hot or cold.
  • the core can also be attached to the end of the stem by crimping, especially at the same level as the envelope and during the same crimping operation.
  • the applicator can thus easily be produced industrially.
  • the envelope may be closed at its end opposite to the attachment zone so as to completely surround the core which is not accessible from the outside.
  • the rod may comprise a main portion and an intermediate portion on which is fixed the applicator member, the intermediate portion being fixed to the rest of the rod by snapping, screwing, gluing, insertion force or crimping.
  • the intermediate portion carrying the applicator member can thus be removably or permanently mounted on the rod.
  • the envelope can be molded, especially alone, without the soul. It may for example be made of a material from the following list: elastomer, especially thermoplastic, LDPE, PVC, PU, polyester thermoplastic elastomer, EPDM, PDM, EVA, SIS, SEBS, SBS, latex, silicone, nitrile, butyl, polyurethane , polyether amide block, polyester. It can be made of a single material or, by bi-injection, into two different materials, in particular of two different colors.
  • elastomer especially thermoplastic, LDPE, PVC, PU, polyester thermoplastic elastomer, EPDM, PDM, EVA, SIS, SEBS, SBS, latex, silicone, nitrile, butyl, polyurethane , polyether amide block, polyester. It can be made of a single material or, by bi-injection, into two different materials, in particular of two different colors.
  • the core may be made of thermoplastic material selected from the following list: HDPE, LDPE, linear PE, PP, PT, POM, PA, PET, PBT or metal.
  • the core may be more rigid than the envelope of the applicator member so as to obtain an applicator sufficiently rigid to allow good application to the area to be treated by virtue of the presence of the rigid core while ensuring application gently thanks to the envelope of softer material that comes into contact with the area to be treated.
  • the envelope may define an application surface that may carry application elements in the form of bristles or teeth to form an applicator for the eyelashes.
  • the application elements may be arranged in the form of one or several rows extending along the envelope.
  • the envelope may define an application surface which may be at least partly covered with a flocking coating, in particular formed of a mixture of at least two different fibers.

  • the core may define a center of symmetry of this section.
  • the core may be eccentric within a cross section of the envelope at at least one point of the length of the applicator member.
  • the cross section of the soul can present a general shape chosen in the following list: circular, polygonal, in particular triangular, square, pentagonal or hexagonal, oblong, in particular oval lenticular or cruciform, V-shaped of C.

  • the container 2 comprises a body 4 provided with a neck 5 in which is housed, in the example considered, a wiper member 6.
  • the applicator 3 comprises a rod 8, of longitudinal axis X, connected at one end to a gripping member 9 which also constitutes a sealing cap of the container 2.
  • the rod is cylindrical, of constant diameter, but it is not beyond the scope of the invention when the rod 8 comprises a retreint, for example located at the wiper member 6, and in particular a lip of the latter, so as not to deform during storage when the container 2 is closed.
