Abstract

The applicator has an oblong base body (2) with a stem projection (3) and disk-like trimming elements (4, 5) arranged perpendicular to a longitudinal axis (8) of the base body at distances (X1, X2) from one another. A trimming unit comprises two segments such as halves (6, 7), where the elements of the halves are at a different distance from one another when viewing the applicator in a longitudinal direction. The trimming elements consist of a thermoplastic elastomer. The distance between the elements (4) amounts to between 0.2 millimeters (mm) and 1.5 mm relative to one another.

Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf einen Applikator zum Auftragen von Kosmetika und Haarfärbemittel, insbesondere Mascara, umfassend einen länglichen Grundkörper mit einem Stielansatz und eine Mehrzahl scheibenartige Besatzelemente, welche im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Längsachse des Grundkörpers im Abstand zueinander angeordnet sind.The invention is directed to an applicator for applying cosmetics and hair colorants, in particular mascara, comprising an elongated base body with a stem attachment and a plurality of disc-like attachment elements, which are arranged substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the body at a distance from each other.

Ein gattungsgemäßer Applikator ist aus US 3 892 248 bekannt. Dort ist weiterhin bereits vorgesehen, dass die Scheiben relativ zum Grundkörper asymmetrisch angeordnet sind, das heißt auf der einen Seite weiter über den Grundkörper hinaus stehen als auf der anderen Seite.A generic applicator is off US 3,892,248 known. There is also already provided that the discs are arranged asymmetrically relative to the base body, that is, on the one hand continue beyond the base body than on the other side.

Aus der EP 0 038 524 ist es auch schon bekannt, um einen Kern aus einem ersten Material einen die Scheiben tragenden Mantel aus einem zweiten Material zu spritzen. Weiterhin wird in dieser Druckschrift beschrieben, dass die Scheiben mit in Längsrichtung fluchtenden Ausnehmungen versehen sein können.From the EP 0 038 524 It is also already known to inject a core of a first material, a disc carrying coat of a second material. Furthermore, it is described in this document that the discs can be provided with aligned in the longitudinal direction recesses.

Weitere Applikatoren mit einem scheibenartigen Besatz sind bekannt aus EP 1 752 065 A1 , US 6 345 626 B1 und US 2002/0014251 A1 .Other applicators with a disc-like trim are known from EP 1 752 065 A1 . US Pat. No. 6,345,626 B1 and US 2002/0014251 A1 ,

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Applikator der gattungsgemäßen Art so auszugestalten, dass die Transfer- und Auftragseigenschaften für das Kosmetikum optimiert werden und bei der Verwendung als Mascara-Applikator eine zuverlässige und definierte Separation der Wimpern und ein gleichmäßiger Farbauftrag bis zur Wimpernspitze gewährleistet ist.On this basis, the invention has the object, an applicator of the generic type so that the transfer and application properties are optimized for the cosmetic and when used as a mascara applicator reliable and defined separation of the eyelashes and a uniform application of paint to the eyelash tip is guaranteed.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass der Besatz wenigstens zwei Segmente, insbesondere Hälften, aufweist, deren Besatzelemente 4, 5 in Längsrichtung gesehen einen unterschiedlichen Abstand voneinander haben.This object is achieved in that the stocking at least two segments, in particular halves, has their stocking elements 4, 5 seen in the longitudinal direction have a different distance from each other.

Hierdurch entsteht in Umfangsrichtung gesehen eine Besatzdichte-Abstufung, die zu einer Abstreifung der Wimpern und zu einer Entfernung überschüssiger Mascara führt, wenn der Applikator während des Auftrags unter Führung längs der Wimpern gedreht wird.This results in a stocking density gradation seen in the circumferential direction, which leads to a stripping of the eyelashes and a removal of excess mascara when the applicator is rotated during the order under guidance along the eyelashes.

Die Besatzelemente und der Kern des Applikators können in einem Stück aus dem gleichen Material oder aus unterschiedlichen Materialien gespritzt sein.The filling elements and the core of the applicator can be injection-molded in one piece from the same material or from different materials.

In letzterem Fall kann zum Beispiel der Kern aus PP (Polypropylen) und die Besatzelemente aus TPE (Thermoplastisches Elastomer) bestehen.In the latter case, for example, the core of PP (polypropylene) and the trim elements of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) exist.

Der Abstand der einen geringeren Abstand voneinander aufweisenden Besatzelemente voneinander kann zwischen 0,2 mm und 1,5 mm, vorzugsweise bei etwa 0,6 mm liegen.The distance between the trim elements having a smaller distance from one another can be between 0.2 mm and 1.5 mm, preferably about 0.6 mm.

Der Abstand der zweiten, einen größeren Abstand voneinander aufweisenden Besatzelemente liegt günstigerweise zwischen 0,6 mm und 2,5 mm, vorzugsweise bei ca. 0,9 mm.The distance of the second, a greater distance from each other having trim elements is conveniently between 0.6 mm and 2.5 mm, preferably at about 0.9 mm.

Es wäre auch eine Ausführungsform denkbar, bei der die ersten Besatzelemente einstückig mit einer Grundkörperhälfte und die zweiten Besatzelemente einstückig mit einer zweiten Grundkörperhälfte gespritzt und die beiden Grundkörperhälften miteinander verbunden sind.It would also be an embodiment conceivable in which the first trim elements integrally molded with a base body half and the second trim elements integrally with a second base body half and the two main body halves are connected together.

Dabei ist es auch möglich, die Grundkörperhälfte durch zwei Komponenten (Spritzgießen) in einer Form miteinander zu verbinden.It is also possible to connect the main body half by two components (injection molding) in a mold with each other.

Mit Vorteil weisen die ersten und/oder zweiten Besatzelemente in Längsrichtung miteinander fluchtende Ausnehmungen auf, wobei die Flanken der Ausnehmungen günstigerweise in radialer Richtung verlaufen.Advantageously, the first and / or second loading elements in the longitudinal direction aligned recesses, wherein the flanks of the recesses favorably extend in the radial direction.

Die radial außen liegenden Bereiche der Besatzelemente können in Umfangsrichtung verlaufende Rillen aufweisen.The radially outer portions of the trim elements may have circumferentially extending grooves.

Ein in der Zeichnung dargestellter Applikator 1 umfasst einen Grundkörper 2 mit einem Stielansatz 3, wobei an dem Grundkörper scheibenartige bzw. scheibensegmentartige Besatzelemente 4, 5 im Abstand X1 bzw. X2 voneinander angeordnet sind.An applicator 1 shown in the drawing comprises a main body 2 with a handle attachment 3, wherein disk-like or disk-segment-like loading elements 4, 5 are arranged at a distance X1 or X2 from one another on the base body.

Der Grundkörper 2 besteht, wie aus Fig. 2 erkennbar, aus zwei Hälften 6, 7 beiderseits der Mittel-Längsachse 8.
Die Besatzelemente 4 und 5 sind einstückig mit dem stabförmigen Kern umfassend die Hälften 6, 7 gespritzt.
The main body 2 is made as out Fig. 2 recognizable, from two halves 6, 7 on both sides of the central longitudinal axis. 8
The trim elements 4 and 5 are integrally molded with the rod-shaped core comprising the halves 6, 7.

Die Herstellung kann im Ein- und Zwei-Komponenten- Spritzverfahren erfolgen, das heißt die Herstellung im 1-K-Verfahren erfolgt einstückig, während es im 2-K-Verfahren folgende Möglichkeiten bei der Herstellung gibt:

  • Sandwich-Verfahren
  • 2-K-Verfahren mit Überspritzen der ersten und zweiten Werkzeugform
  • 2-K-Moltrusion.
The preparation can be carried out in one and two-component injection molding, that is, the production in the 1-K process takes place in one piece, while there are the following possibilities in the production in the 2-component process:
  • Sandwich method
  • 2-K process with overmolding of the first and second tool molds
  • 2-K-moltrusion.

Die ersten Besatzelemente 4 der Hälfte 7 weisen voneinander einen Abstand X1 auf, der geringer ist als der Abstand X2 der zweiten Besatzelemente 5, sodass die Dichte der Besatzelemente auf der Hälfte 7 größer ist als auf der Hälfte 6. Natürlicherweise verjüngen sich die Wimpern zur Spitze hin.The first trim elements 4 of the half 7 have a distance X1 from one another which is smaller than the distance X2 of the second trim elements 5, so that the density of the trim elements on the half 7 is greater than on the half 6. Of course, the eyelashes taper to the top out.

Damit der Farbauftrag trotzdem relativ gleichmäßig von der Wimpernbasis zur Wimpernspitze nach dem ersten Eintauchen in die Einfärbemasse erfolgen kann, sind die Besatzelemente 4 und 5 zum äußeren Rand hin verjüngt und bilden damit einen V-förmigen Raum zur Aufnahme der Einfärbemasse und den eintauchenden Wimpern.In order that the application of paint can nevertheless take place relatively evenly from the eyelash base to the eyelash tip after the first immersion in the colorant, the garnish elements 4 and 5 are tapered towards the outer edge and thus form a V-shaped space for receiving the coloring and the dipping eyelashes.

Durch die von der Verbraucherin erzeugten Drehbewegung und gleichzeitiger linearer Bewegung von der Wimpernbasis zur Wimpernspitze hin wird die Einfärbemasse, die nach dem Eintauchen an der Wimper haftet, durch den erfindungsgemäßen, durch den Übergang des Bereichs geringerer zum Bereich höherer Besatzelemente-Dichte gebildeten Absatz 12 (vgl.
Fig. 4) gleichmäßig abgestreift und damit entsteht ein gleichmäßiger Farbauftrag von der Wimpernbasis bis zur Wimpernspitze.
Due to the consumer's rotational motion and simultaneous linear motion from the eyelash base to the eyelash tip, the colorant adhering to the eyelash after immersion is formed by the heel 12 of the present invention formed by the transition of the region of lesser tuft density to the region of see.
Fig. 4 ) evenly stripped and thus creates a uniform application of color from the eyelash base to the eyelash tip.

Die Außenkontur bzw. Umhüllende der Besatzelemente 4, 5 weist am äußeren, dem Stielansatz 3 abgewandten Ende sehr unterschiedliche Geometrien, z. B. zylindrisch, zylindrisch-konisch, Kurven, Football, Tannenbaum und im Ausführungsbeispiel insbesondere eine konische Verjüngung 9 auf. Im zentralen Bereich verläuft die Kurve konkav.The outer contour or envelope of the garnish elements 4, 5 has on the outer, the stalk approach 3 opposite end very different geometries, eg. B. cylindrical, cylindrical-conical, curves, football, Christmas tree and in the embodiment, in particular a conical taper 9. In the central area, the curve is concave.

Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Besatzelemente symmetrisch zur Mittellängsachse dargestellt. Hiervon abweichend können sie auch gegen die Mittellängsachse versetzt angeordnet sein. Weiterhin sind im Ausführungsbeispiel zwei sich jeweils um 180° erstreckende Segmente der Abstreifelemente dargestellt. Es können aber auch bis zu 16 solche Segmente vorgesehen sein. Dabei kann sich der Abstand der Besatzelemente von Segment zu Segment ändern, zum Beispiel im Sinne einer kontinuierlichen Erhöhung in Umfangsrichtung.In the present embodiment, the trim elements are shown symmetrically to the central longitudinal axis. Deviating from this, they can also be offset relative to the central longitudinal axis. Furthermore, two each extending by 180 ° segments of the stripping elements are shown in the embodiment. But it can also be provided up to 16 such segments. The spacing of the stocking elements may change from segment to segment, for example in the sense of a continuous increase in the circumferential direction.

Die Besatzelemente 4, 5 sindmit Ausnehmungen 10 versehen, deren Flanken 11 radial nach außen verlaufen.The trim elements 4, 5 are provided with recesses 10, the flanks 11 extend radially outwardly.
