Definitions
- the present invention relates to the general technical field of devices for applying products, in particular cosmetic products, to an area of the human body, preferably consisting of superficial body growths, and in particular filiform and keratinized integers such as eyelashes.
- the present invention relates more particularly to an instrument for applying a product to superficial body growths, comprising on the one hand an elongate core and on the other hand at least one core carrying means for applying said product, said core passing through said core, core and the core being bonded to substantially prevent the core from pivoting freely on the core.
- the present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing an instrument for applying a product to superficial body growths, comprising:
- a second supply step during which at least one core carrying a means for applying said product is manufactured, or at least one core carrying means for applying said product already manufactured is provided,
- the instrument according to the invention is a mascara applicator for eyelashes, intended to collect a quantity of mascara in a container, and to carry this amount to the eyelashes to deposit it on them.
- Mascara applicators are already known in the form of brushes.
- Such brushes conventionally comprise a gripping member, which can act as a stopper for a container containing the mascara to be applied, and a rod extending from the gripping member between a proximal end and a distal end.
- a multitude of bristles extend radially from the stem at the distal end thereof, thereby forming an application head.
- the user soaks the brush in a container containing mascara, which has the effect of mascara coat the bristles and the stem.
- the user then performs an action of brushing the eyelashes using the brush, which has the effect of transferring mascara from the brush to and on the eyelashes, while painting them.
- mascara brushes are known whose application head is formed of a rectilinear axis disposed towards the distal end of the rod, in the extension of the latter, and on which are slidably threaded, one behind the other, identical washers pierced with a central hole.
- Each washer is provided with teeth extending radially in a ring, said teeth forming the bristles of the brush, ie the means for applying the brush.
- the central hole in each washer and in which is threaded the axis, has a non-circular section, the sections of the hole in each washer on the one hand and the axis on the other hand being conjugated in order to avoid the free rotation of the washers on the axis.
- the washers are all identical to each other (for economic reasons in particular), and they can not rotate on the axis, their teeth are therefore all aligned along the axis and form rectilinear rows extending parallel to the axis.
- the object of the invention is therefore to remedy the various disadvantages listed above, and to propose a new instrument for applying a product to superficial body growths which is of particularly simple and economical construction while allowing an improved expansion of its application means.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a new instrument for applying a product on integuments particularly easy to manufacture.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a new instrument for applying a product to integuments whose construction is based on particularly simple mechanical principles and easy to implement.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a new instrument for applying a product to particularly inexpensive integuments.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a new instrument for applying a product to superficial integuments allowing a plentiful but regular and controlled distribution of the application means.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a novel method of manufacturing an instrument for applying a product to superficial integuments, the implementation of which is particularly simple and inexpensive, while making it possible to obtain an instrument whose medium is application presents an optimized proliferation.
- an instrument for applying a product to superficial body growths comprising on the one hand an elongated core and on the other hand at least one core carrying means for applying said product.
- said core passing through said core, the core and the core being bonded to substantially prevent the core from freely pivoting on the core, characterized in that the core is twisted.
- a second supply step during which at least one core carrying a means for applying said product is manufactured, or at least one core carrying means for applying said product already manufactured is provided,
- FIG. 1 illustrates, in a general side view, an instrument according to the invention for the application of mascara on the eyelashes.
- FIG. 2 illustrates, in a perspective view, a detail of the embodiment of the instrument shown in Figure 1, and more particularly a stack of cores carrying application means, the core is not shown.
- Figure 3 illustrates, in a schematic perspective view, the core of the instrument shown in Figures 1 and 2 before it is twisted.
- FIG. 4 illustrates, in a front view, a core carrying an application means, implemented in the construction of the instrument shown in Figures 1 to 3.
- FIG. 5 illustrates, in a perspective view, the cooperation of the core carrying an application means illustrated in FIG. 4 and the not yet twisted core illustrated in FIG. 3.
- FIG. 6 illustrates, in a perspective view, a second embodiment of the core of an instrument according to the invention, before it is twisted.
- FIG. 7 illustrates, in a front view, a second embodiment of a core carrying application means and implemented in the construction of the instrument provided with the core illustrated in FIG. 6.
- Figure 8 illustrates, in a front view, a third embodiment of a core carrying an application means.
- FIG. 9 illustrates, in a perspective view, the cooperation of the core carrying an application means illustrated in FIG. 8 and the not yet twisted core illustrated in FIG. 3.
- FIG. 10 is identical to Figure 9, with the difference that a plurality of cores according to the third embodiment is threaded onto the core and the latter is twisted.
- the invention relates to an instrument 1 for applying a product, preferably liquid, semi-liquid (for example pasty) or powder, on superficial body growths, and in particular on fibrous keratinous superficial body growths such as hair (for example: eyelashes, eyebrows). , beard, mustache) or hair.
- a product preferably liquid, semi-liquid (for example pasty) or powder
- superficial body growths and in particular on fibrous keratinous superficial body growths
- hair for example: eyelashes, eyebrows).
- beard, mustache or hair.
- the product to be applied is a cosmetic product, so that the instrument 1 constitutes in this case a cosmetic instrument:
- the product to be applied is mascara for the eyelashes
- the instrument 1 then constituting a mascara applicator for the eyelashes.
- the invention is however not limited to the application of a product having a necessarily cosmetic nature, nor the application of a product necessarily having a consistency identical to that of a mascara.
- the instrument 1 may thus possibly be used to apply any product, regardless of its consistency, said product may for example to be very fluid, have conversely a very viscous and / or pasty, or to be in the form of a powder.
- the instrument 1 comprises a gripping member 2 designed to be grasped and manipulated manually by a user, for example between two or three fingers.
- the instrument 1 therefore presents, in a conventional manner, a portable character and is intended for manual use.
- the gripping member 2 may also be shaped to serve as a cap for a container (not shown) containing a product stock to be applied, which is preferably mascara for the eyelashes.
- a product stock to be applied which is preferably mascara for the eyelashes.
- the instrument 1 comprises a rod 3 extending substantially rectilinear, in an axial direction X-X ', from the gripping member 2 between a proximal end 3A and a distal end 3B.
- the instrument 1 comprises a core 4.
- the core 4 is preferably positioned towards the distal end 3B of the stem 3, and even more preferably, as illustrated in FIGS. extends substantially rectilinearly, from the distal end 3B, in the extension of the rod 3, along the axis X-X ', between a first end 4A connected to the distal end 3B, and a second end 4B free.
- the core 4 is distinct from the rod 3, and is fixed thereto, for example by crimping. It is however quite conceivable that the core 4 is directly formed by the rod 3 itself. It is also conceivable that the instrument 1 has no rod 3, the core 4 being directly connected to the gripping member 2. It is also possible that the core 4, and more particularly its first end 4A, is shaped to constitute itself by itself the gripping member 2, without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the core 4 does not extend in a strictly rectilinear manner, as is illustrated in the figures, but alternatively has a slightly curved shape (not shown), for example, conjugated to the average profile of the implantation of lashes.
- the axial direction X-X ' is obviously not defined by a straight line, but by a curved line which follows the extension contour of the core 4.
- the core 4 has an elongated, slender shape.
- the core 4 has a long, thin, threadlike shape.
- the core 4 can thus be described as elongated, that is to say that it extends mainly in a single direction of space, in this case the axial direction X-X '.
- the soul 4 is predominantly one-dimensional.
- the instrument 1 also comprises at least one core 5 carrying an application means 6 of the product to be applied to the integuments.
- the core 5 thus forms a support for the application means 6, the latter being mounted on the core 5.
- the application means 6 comes from material with said core 5, that is to say that it forms with the latter a unitary piece and monobloc.
- the application means 6 may be distinct and independent of the core 5 and be fixed on the latter by any appropriate means, for example by gluing, flocking, heat sealing, crimping or mechanical assembly.
- the instrument 1 preferably comprises a plurality of separate nuclei 5 (see Figure 2 in particular) each carrying a corresponding application means.
- the instrument 1 comprises a single core 5 carrying a single unitary application means 6.
- the application means 6 carried by the core 5 is designed to collect the product (for example mascara) and apply it on the integuments (for example the eyelashes).
- the application means 6 is therefore preferably specifically designed to take the product to be applied, for example by being immersed in a reserve of the latter, and to retain and contain this amount of product taken until released on the integuments, performed preferably by contacting and rubbing the application means 6 with and against the integuments.
- the application means 6 also makes it possible, simultaneously with the coating of the eyelashes by mascara, to perform a combing and combing function. separation of the eyelashes.
- the application means 6 preferably comprises protrusions 6A protruding from the core 5, preferably radially relative to the axis X-X '.
- the application means 6 is prominent relative to the core 5, and advantageously forms a multitude of protuberances from said core 5.
- the protuberances 6A thus form combing teeth, that is to say bristles which make it possible to coat the eyelashes with mascara while concomitantly painting said eyelashes.
- the core 5 and the application means 6 which it carries are both formed by a single piece having substantially a star shape, the central COSUF of the star being formed by the core 5 while the branches of the star are formed respectively by the radial protuberances 6A of the application means 6, which extend from radial and centrifugal manner relative to the axis X-X ', from the core 5.
- the invention is not limited to a particular structure of the (or) means (s) of application, the latter being essentially dictated by the consistency of the product to be applied, the nature of the receiving medium (for example: eyelashes or nails), and the desired make-up effect.
- the core 4 passes through the core 5, that is to say it passes through each core 5 in the case where the instrument 1 comprises a plurality of cores, as is illustrated in FIGS. .
- the core 4 and the core 5 are furthermore bonded so as to substantially prevent the core 5 from pivoting freely on the core 4.
- the core 4 and the core 5 are mechanically bonded to substantially prevent the core 5 from pivoting freely on the core 4, ie the mechanical connection between the core 5 and the core 4 is such that any relative rotation of the core 5 around the core is substantially prohibited.
- the core 4 passes through the core 5 so that the interface between the core 4 and the core 5 makes it possible to prevent the core 5 from freely rotating on the elongated core 4, and vice versa to prevent the core elongated core 4 to rotate freely within the core 5.
- each core 5 is pierced throughout its thickness by at least two distinct holes 5A, 5B 1 while the core 4 comprises at least two integral branches of each other intended to be threaded respectively in said holes 5A 1 5B.
- Such a technical measure thus allows anchoring of the core 5 on the core 4 at two distinct points, which de facto prohibits the free rotation of the core 5 on the core 4, whatever the shape of the holes 5A , 5B and corresponding branches of the core 4.
- each core 5 with a single through-orifice 5A having a non-circular shape, such as a faceted shape, said orifice cooperating with a 4 -body core whose section is of conjugate shape to that of the orifice 5A.
- the single orifice 5A has a square section just like the core 4, so that the core 4 once threaded into the hole 5A can not rotate freely at inside the latter.
- the core 4 is twisted, that is to say that it is spirally twisted in spiral, along its axis of extension X-X '.
- the twisted character of the soul 4 can of course be obtained in different ways.
- the core 4 initially has a non-twisted, straight and rectilinear character, as illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 6.
- This non-twisted core 4 which can be described as primary core, is subjected to a twist, for example made by printing at one of its parts a rotational movement about the axis XX '(for example in the clockwise direction) while the other parts remain fixed, even are subjected to a movement of opposite direction (for example anti-clockwise).
- This torsion force is made in such a way as to impart a plastic deformation to the core 4, so that the latter adopts its twisted form in a stable and permanent manner.
- the angular position of the core 5 and the application means 6 which it carries is conditioned, along the axis X-X ', by the helical twisted profile of the core 4.
- Said application means 6 thus preferably has a helical profile.
- the instrument 1 comprises a plurality of cores 5 distinct from each other and each carrying a corresponding application means 6. More specifically, the cores 5 are substantially identical to each other. In the same way, the application means 6 carried by the cores 5 are also identical to each other.
- each core 5 forms with the application means 6 that it carries a piece in one piece. More specifically, each core 5 implemented in these three embodiments has a plate shape, that is to say that each of said cores 5 has a very small thickness compared with its other dimensions, and for example a thickness between 0.05 and 1 mm, said thickness being preferably of the order of 0.2 mm.
- the core 5 has a substantially oval shape, full, pierced with two orifices 5A, 5B of circular section, identical. From the periphery of the core 5 extend radial lamellae forming the protuberances 6A, said radial lamellae having an elongated substantially rectangular shape and being distributed over the entire perimeter of the core 5 in a regular angular distribution.
- These strips, which form the protuberances 6A of the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 5 extend in a rectilinear manner, substantially radially relative to the axis XX 'in the same plane of extension as that of the core 5, this plane of common extension being substantially perpendicular to the axis X-X '.
- the radial lamellae forming the protuberances 6A are twelve in number, it being understood that the invention is in no way limited to a particular number of protuberances 6A.
- the integral piece forming at the same time the core 5 and the application means 6 has a star shape with five branches, each of these five branches being substantially triangular.
- the core 5 is this time pierced with a single hole 5A of square section.
- the one-piece piece forming both the core 5 and the application means 6 has a shape substantially identical to that illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5, unlike that the radial lamellae forming the protuberances 6A are not rectilinear, but curvilinear, ie curved in the extension plane of the core 5 and that said lamellae are fifteen in number.
- This curved shape of the slats makes it possible to improve the contact between eyelashes / brush during makeup, in particular by providing a soft "touch”.
- the core 4 advantageously comprises, as is illustrated in particular in Figures 3, 5 and 9, at least one pin 7 U-shaped with two longitudinal branches 7A, 7B extending in two substantially parallel directions of extension.
- the two longitudinal branches 7A, 7B are connected by a transverse arm 7C, which advantageously has a curved shape and extends in the extension of the branches 7A, 7B.
- a U-shaped pin is sometimes referred to in the technical field to which the invention relates by the name "stirrup".
- the transverse branches 7A, 7B are threaded respectively into the two orifices 5A, 5B passing right through, throughout its thickness, the core 5 illustrated in FIG. 4.
- the core 5 is pierced with two orifices 5A, 5B in which are respectively threaded the longitudinal branches 7A, 7B.
- the pin 7 is made of a plastically deformable material, for example a metal material of the steel kind. Of preferred way, the pin 7 is made by simply folding a rectilinear metal wire monobloc.
- the instrument 1 comprises a plurality of separate and independent cores 5 formed by parts all identical to each other, said cores 5 being stacked against each other, as illustrated in FIG. 1. Each core 5 is thus traversed by the core 4.
- each core 5 is slidably threaded on the pin 7, that is to say on the branches 7A, 7B via its two orifices 5A, 5B, while the core 4 is that is, the pin 7 in this case is not yet twisted (as illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 9).
- the pieces forming the core 5 and the application means 6 are thus threaded one after the other on the pin 7 so as to cover substantially the entire length of said pin 7, with the exception of a marginal fraction, by example in the vicinity of the first end 4A, intended to be secured to the rod 3.
- the plurality of cores 5 thus forms a stack along the axis X-X '.
- a twisting force is then exerted along the axis XX 'on the pin 7, so as to deform the longitudinal branches 7A, 7B and ensure that they each adopt a substantially helical profile around the axis X-X .
- This torsion force can be located on at least two cores or preferably be exerted on all the nuclei stacked along the core 4.
- the twisted character of the core 4 thus allows expansion of the lamellae carried by each core 5, that is to say a better angular distribution of said lamellae, in particular to prevent the formation of longitudinal zones completely devoid of lamellae.
- This expansion which advantageously leads to the formation of intertwined layers of protuberances 6A extending in a spiral around the axis X-X ', makes it possible in particular to optimize the effect of combing and bending of the eyelashes, as well as the quality of makeup.
- the principle of constructing and obtaining the instrument 1 is similar to that implemented in the embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 5 and 8 to 10, insofar as where the core 4 is this time formed of a bar 8 of square cross section conjugate to the section of the hole 5A, the cores 5 being threaded onto the bar 8 via their single square hole 5A.
- the bar 8 initially not twisted, then undergoes a torsional force.
- the square section of the bar 8 allows a control of the same nature, and therefore an angular offset, along the axis XX ' , protuberances 6A so that the latter form helical plies along the axis X-X '.
- embodiments have been described implementing a plurality of distinct nuclei, but the invention can quite implement a single flexible core (not shown) initially carrying rectilinear rows of excrescences forming the application means, this single core extending longitudinally over a length substantially corresponding to that of the core 4. In this case, the torsion of the core generates a twist of the core along the axis XX 'and therefore a proliferation of growths carried by this unique nucleus.
- the torsion of the core applies only to a portion of the nuclei stacked on the core, namely at least two cores.
- the torsion of said portion of the core then causes the twisting of the cores carried by said portion of the core and therefore the expansion of the application means they carry.
- the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing an instrument 1 for applying a product to superficial body growths, and in particular an instrument 1 according to the one just described in the foregoing.
- the method according to the invention constitutes a method of manufacturing a mascara applicator for the eyelashes.
- the method according to the invention comprises a first supply step, during which an elongated core 4 is manufactured or an elongate core 4 already manufactured is obtained. .
- the method according to the invention also comprises a second supply step, during which at least one core 5 is made carrying a means 6 for applying said product to be applied, or in the course of which at least one core is obtained. 5 (bearing means for applying said product) already manufactured.
- the method according to the invention also comprises an assembly step, during which the core 4 and the core 5 are assembled so that the core 4 passes through the core 5, the core 4 and the core 5 being linked so as to substantially prevent the core 5 from pivoting freely on the core 4.
- the core 4 and the core 5 are, during the assembly step, mechanically bonded to substantially prevent the core 5 from pivoting freely on the core 4.
- the method according to the invention comprises a twisting step during which the elongate core 4 is twisted.
- this twisting step is advantageously performed after the assembly step.
- the cores 5 are first threaded onto the core 4, then the latter is twisted to cause an angular offset of the cores 5 relative to each other.
- it is a relative angular offset of at least two cores 5 carrying the application means 6, and preferably all of the cores, along the core 4 and the 'X-X axis'.
- the cores 5 advantageously remain substantially centered on the X-X 'axis, so that the direction of extension general of the instrument 1 remains unchanged between the assembly step and the twisting step.
- a plurality of cores 5 each carrying a corresponding application means 6 is manufactured.
- a plate preferably laser, is cut into a single piece forming both the core 5 and the application means 6 carried by said core 5.
- the one-piece parts in question are cut from a silicone or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plate using a laser cutting tool.
- the cores 5 are stacked on each other, each core 5 being traversed by the core 4, as already described in the foregoing.
- a U-shaped pin 7 is produced or provided with two longitudinal branches 7A, 7B connected by a transverse arm 7C.
- At least one core 5 carrying a means 6 for applying the product to be applied is made or obtained, said core 5 being pierced with two orifices 5A, 5B.
- the orifices 5A, 5B may be preformed in the core 5, that is to say that they may for example be made during the manufacture of the core 5, by cutting and removal of material.
- the orifices 5A, 5B are directly made by the core 4 when the latter crosses the core 5, the core 4 then directly perforating the core 5 to arrange by itself the orifices 5A 1 5B.
- each core 5 of the stack illustrated for example in FIG. 2 free fibers, such that said fibers pass through the interstitial space delimited by the two longitudinal branches 7A, 7B .
- the cores 5 will be angularly offset, which will cause the formation of helical sheets of protrusion 6A, but said fibers will also flourish under the effect of the twisting of the core 4, allowing thus obtaining a "mixed" application head comprising protuberances 6A and fibers.
- the general profile of the application head of the instrument 1 is modified by machining, that is to say by removal of material in the helical layers formed by the protuberances 6A.
- the invention finds its industrial application in the design and manufacture of an instrument for applying a product to superficial body growths, in particular a mascara brush.
