To improve in particular for the comfortable opening of the device for applying cosmetic material as well as for realizing further advantages, reference is made to the exemplary embodiments in the drawing figures. Show it:
Fig. 1
the inventive device for applying cosmetic material in the open state and
Fig. 2
the device after Fig. 1 in the closed state.

Die Vorrichtung nach Fig. 1 besitzt ein Griffelement 1, welches mit einem Gehäuse 11 lösbar verbindbar ist. Am Griffelement 1 ist über einen Halter 2 und insbesondere ein Einsatzteil 20 ein Auftragselement 5 angebracht, auf welches kosmetisches Material 13 aus dem Gehäuse 11 aufgetragen werden kann. Das kosmetische Material 13 ist dabei insbesondere in fester Form vorhanden und kann in gegossener Form im Gehäuse 11 angebracht werden.The device after Fig. 1 has a handle element 1, which is detachably connectable to a housing 11. On the handle element 1, an applicator 5 is attached via a holder 2 and in particular an insert 20, onto which cosmetic material 13 can be applied from the housing 11. The cosmetic material 13 is present in particular in solid form and can be mounted in a molded form in the housing 11.

Die Vorrichtung besitzt ein Einsatzteil 20, welches als Halter 2 dient. Dieses Einsatzteil 20 kann zum einen das Auftragselement 5 in einem unteren Bereich 24 haltern und mit seinem oberen Bereich mit dem Griffelement 1 verbunden sein.The device has an insert 20, which serves as a holder 2. This insert part 20 may on the one hand support the applicator element 5 in a lower region 24 and be connected with its upper region to the gripping element 1.

Das Einsatzteil 20 besitzt einen Bereich 21, der über das Griffelement 1 hinausragt und zur Verbindung mit dem Gehäuse 11 dient. Dabei kann das Einsatzteil 20 als elastisches Teil ausgebildet sein und im Vergleich zum mit geringerer Elastizität ausgebildetem Griffelement 1 und ausgebildetem Gehäuse 11 über eine Erhöhung 22, die umlaufend ausgebildet sein kann, in eine korrespondierende Nut 23 des Gehäuses 11 eingreifen.The insert part 20 has a region 21 which projects beyond the grip element 1 and serves for connection to the housing 11. In this case, the insert part 20 may be formed as an elastic part and in comparison to the handle formed with less elasticity grip element 1 and housing 11 via an elevation 22, which may be formed circumferentially, engage in a corresponding groove 23 of the housing 11.

Hierdurch kann die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung im Bereich des Gehäuses 11 mit einer Hand vom Benutzer gehalten werden und kann z.B. durch Betätigung durch Druck des Daumens auf das Griffelement 1 z.B. im Bereich 30 eine Kippung des Griffelements 1 in Richtung 31 erzeugt werden, wodurch die formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen Griffelement 1 und Gehäuse 11 (vgl. Fig. 2) gelöst werden. Hierdurch kann die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung geöffnet verglichen z.B. mit einem Schraubverschluß besonders komfortabel geöffnet werden.As a result, the device according to the invention can be held in the region of the housing 11 with one hand by the user and, for example, by actuation by pressure of the thumb on the handle element 1, for example in the region 30, a tilting of the handle element 1 in direction 31 are generated, whereby the positive connection between Handle element 1 and housing 11 (see. Fig. 2 ) are solved. As a result, the device according to the invention can be opened compared, for example, opened with a screw particularly comfortable.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist die Breite 26, also der "Bohrungsdurchmesser" im kosmetischem Material 13 derart ausreichend bemessen, daß die bei der Kippbewegung des Griffelements 1 in Richtung 31 auftretende entgegengesetzte Bewegung des Auftragselements 5 in Richtung 27 ermöglicht wird und ausreichend Platz zur Verfügung steht, um eine Bewegung des Auftragselements 5 in Richtung 27 herbeiführen zu können, ohne kosmetisches Material 13 abzutragen.According to a further embodiment, the width 26, that is the "bore diameter" in the cosmetic material 13 is sufficiently dimensioned so that the opposite movement of the applicator element 5 in direction 27 occurring during the tilting movement of the grip element 1 in the direction 31 is made possible and sufficient space is available in order to be able to bring about a movement of the application element 5 in the direction 27, without removing cosmetic material 13.

Vorteilhafterweise ist ferner ein Ringelement 28 vorgesehen, welches zum einen zur Fixierung des kosmetischen Materials 13 und zum anderen als Abstreifelement (ergänzend oder alternativ) für das Auftragselement 5 bei Entnahme aus dem Gehäuse 11 dienen kann.Advantageously, a ring member 28 is further provided, which on the one hand for fixing the cosmetic material 13 and on the other as a stripping element (complementary or alternative) for the applicator element 5 can serve for removal from the housing 11.

Ferner kann das Ringelement 28 als definierter Abschluß dienen und eine unbeabsichtigte Entfernung des kosmetischen Materials 13 aus dem Gehäuse 11 verhindern.Furthermore, the ring element 28 can serve as a defined closure and prevent inadvertent removal of the cosmetic material 13 from the housing 11.

Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann an der Außenseite des Gehäuses 11 eine Deckschicht 29 angebracht sein, die bei einem transparenten Gehäuse 11 selbst nur teilweise transparent ausgeführt ist, so daß Bereiche der Deckschicht 29 vorhanden sind, hinter denen das Ringelement 28 und/oder das kosmetische Material 13 einsehbar sind.According to a further embodiment may be attached to the outside of the housing 11, a cover layer 29, which is carried out in a transparent housing 11 itself only partially transparent, so that areas of the cover layer 29 are present, behind which the ring member 28 and / or the cosmetic material 13 are visible.

Hierdurch kann insbesondere bei nicht-transparentem Gehäuse 11 festgestellt werden, in welchem Umfang noch kosmetisches Material 13 im Gehäuse 11 vorhanden ist.As a result, in particular in the case of non-transparent housing 11, it can be ascertained to what extent cosmetic material 13 is still present in housing 11.

Über die Deckschicht 11 kann dann nach Art eines "Fensters" sozusagen festgestellt werden, ob noch ausreichend kosmetisches Material 13 vorhanden ist.About the cover layer 11 can be determined in the manner of a "window", so to speak, if there is still sufficient cosmetic material 13 is available.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform besitzt die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung einen insbesondere halbkreisförmig ("kugelig") ausgebildeten Endbereich 32, der es insbesondere bei transparenter Ausbildung des Gehäuses 11 bei der Präsentation der Vorrichtung ermöglicht, daß das im Gehäuse 11 aufgenommene kosmetische Material 13 in seiner Farbe über einen erheblichen Blickwinkel (praktisch 180°) einsehbar ist.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the device according to the invention has an in particular semicircular ("spherical") formed end portion 32, which makes it possible in particular with transparent design of the housing 11 in the presentation of the device that recorded in the housing 11 cosmetic material 13 in its color over a considerable angle (practically 180 °) is visible.

Damit besteht eine erhöhte Erkennbarkeit und damit eine gewisse Werbewirkung für die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung.This results in an increased visibility and thus a certain advertising effect for the device according to the invention.

In Fig. 2 ist die Vorrichtung nach Fig. 1 im geschlossenen Zustand abgebildet, wobei identische Teile auch mit identischen Bezugszeichen versehen sind.In Fig. 2 is the device after Fig. 1 imaged in the closed state, with identical parts are also provided with identical reference numerals.
