Selon un autre aspect, l'invention se rapporte à une brosse à mascara comprenant un organe de préhension adapté pour être tenu par un utilisateur, une tige (5) solidaire de l'organe de préhension, et un composant tel que défini ci-dessus, le composant étant fixé à la tige.According to another aspect, the invention relates to a mascara brush comprising a gripping member adapted to be held by a user, a rod (5) integral with the gripping member, and a component as defined above, the component being attached to the rod.
Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, on peut de plus prévoir que la tige est réalisée en un matériau plastique présentant une certaine dureté et le corps du composant comprend un manchon cylindrique s'étendant selon ladite direction longitudinale et emmanché sur la tige, le composant étant moulé d'une pièce en un matériau élastomère ayant une dureté inférieure à la dureté du matériau de la tige.In a particular embodiment, it can further be provided that the rod is made of a plastic material having a certain hardness and the body of the component comprises a cylindrical sleeve extending in said longitudinal direction and fitted on the rod, the component being molded in one piece of an elastomeric material having a hardness less than the hardness of the material of the rod.

Dans l'exemple purement illustratif représenté, l'élément de préhension 4 forme également un élément d'obturation adapté pour fermer le flacon 2. Par exemple, une partie formant bouchon 7 de la brosse 3 comporte, sur une face interne, non visible sur la
La tige 5 comporte une portion proximale 5c proche de l'élément de préhension 4, et une portion distale 5d de section plus faible et recevant le composant d'application 6 de sorte que celui-ci, dans la position obturée de l'ensemble 1 soit plongé dans le produit cosmétique à appliquer. Le flacon 2 comporte de plus un essoreur 9 de type classique, à travers lequel passe le composant d'application 6 lorsque la brosse 3 est retirée du flacon 2, de manière adaptée pour que seule une quantité suffisante de produit cosmétique soit portée par le composant d'application 6 lors de son utilisation par l'utilisateur.The
Comme cela est visible en particulier sur la
Par « rangée », on comprend que les organes d'application d'une même rangée s'étendent sensiblement les uns derrière les autres à mesure que l'on progresse depuis l'extrémité proximale 6a jusqu'à l'extrémité distale 6b du composant 6. Ils sont par exemple disposés de manière équidistante les uns aux autres, en étant espacés d'un espace de taille de l'ordre de la taille de l'organe d'application, par exemple environ 0,3 millimètres.By "row", it is understood that the application members of the same row extend substantially one behind the other as one progresses from the
Chaque rangée comporte au moins dix organes d'application et, dans le présent exemple, quarante organes d'application 131, ..., 1340. Toutefois, ce nombre d'organes d'application par rangée est purement illustratif, à condition d'en avoir au moins dix. Chaque organe d'application 13 est un organe allongé selon une direction longitudinale principale, et s'étend depuis une première extrémité 16 en laquelle il est relié à la face supérieure 11 du manchon 12, à une deuxième extrémité opposée 17, dite libre.Each row comprises at least ten application members and, in the present example, forty
Dans une rangée 14 donnée, un ensemble d'éléments d'application 13 figurent tous dans un même plan, dit « plan d'application ». Dans l'exemple présenté, tous les organes d'application d'une même rangée forment un tel ensemble. Toutefois, en variante, on pourrait considérer que seul un sous-ensemble d'organes d'application consécutifs comprenant au moins dix organes d'application, forme une rangée définissant un plan d'application, la rangée en question formant alors seulement une partie d'une des rangées 14.In a given row 14, a set of
Bien entendu, l'appartenance au plan d'application est définie avec la tolérance se rapportant au moins à la flexibilité du matériau constitutif de ces organes, et aux tolérances du procédé de fabrication. Compte tenu de ces tolérances, on dira que chaque rangée définit en moyenne un plan d'application.Of course, the membership of the application plan is defined with the tolerance relating to at least the flexibility of the constituent material of these bodies, and tolerances of the manufacturing process. Given these tolerances, we say that each row defines an average application plan.
Par conséquent, dans l'exemple présenté, les extrémités libres des organes d'application de la rangée s'étendent dans le plan d'application, ainsi que les premières extrémités.Therefore, in the example presented, the free ends of the application members of the row extend in the application plane, as well as the first ends.
Dans l'exemple présenté, un premier sous-ensemble d'une rangée dit « sous-ensemble proximal », comprenant au moins cinq et, dans le présent exemple, les trente-deux dents proximales 131 à 13i a ses extrémités libres selon une droite dite droite d'application D. Un deuxième sous-ensemble dit « sous-ensemble distal », d'organes d'application 13i à 1340 de cette même rangée, présente des extrémités libres qui ne sont pas alignées avec la droite D et se situent sensiblement entre la droite D et l'axe longitudinal X.In the example presented, a first subset of a row called "proximal subassembly", comprising at least five and, in the present example, the thirty-two
Avec une telle géométrie, une rangée d'organes d'application définit de manière unique le plan d'application P. On notera que les éléments d'application 131 à 13i du sous-ensemble proximal sont tous de longueurs légèrement différentes, du fait de la surface extérieure 11 de section circulaire constante le long de l'axe longitudinal X. Leur longueur augmente progressivement à mesure que l'on progresse de l'organe 131 à l'organe 13i. Puis, leur longueur diminue, par exemple de manière linéaire, de l'organe 13i à l'organe 1340, parmi les organes du sous-ensemble distal.With such a geometry, a row of application members uniquely defines the application plane P. It will be noted that the
Comme cela est visible sur les
En variante de réalisation, on notera que toutes les extrémités libres des organes d'application d'une même rangée pourraient être alignées selon la droite D, auquel cas le plan d'application P serait défini par la droite D et une direction générale moyenne d'extension radiale Dr des organes d'application de la rangée. La direction Dr est par exemple la direction longitudinale de chacun des organes d'application, s'ils sont tous parallèles entre eux comme dans l'exemple représenté. Toutefois, s'ils ne sont pas tous parallèles entre eux, il est possible de définir un plan moyen de ces organes d'application qui contient cette direction Dr comme une direction moyenne d'extension des organes d'application entre leurs extrémités.As an alternative embodiment, it will be noted that all the free ends of the application members of the same row could be aligned along the line D, in which case the application plane P would be defined by the line D and an average general direction d radial extension D r of the application members of the row. The direction D r is for example the longitudinal direction of each of the application members, if they are all parallel to each other as in the example shown. However, if they are not all parallel to each other, it is possible to define an average plane of these application members which contains this direction D r as a mean direction of extension of the application members between their ends.
Ainsi, le plan d'application P peut être défini comme le plan de l'espace le plus proche des organes d'application de la rangée considéré.Thus, the application plane P can be defined as the plane of the space closest to the application members of the row considered.
En variante, le plan d'application P peut être défini à partir :
- d'une première direction qui est la direction moyenne selon laquelle les premières extrémités des organes d'application sont disposées,
- d'une deuxième direction qui est la direction moyenne dans laquelle s'étendent les organes d'application de la rangée.
- a first direction which is the average direction in which the first ends of the application members are arranged,
- a second direction which is the average direction in which the application members of the row extend.
La première direction peut être déterminée en relevant dans l'espace les positions tridimensionnelles des points de jonction des organes d'application au manchon, et en élisant la droite la plus proche de cet ensemble de points.The first direction can be determined by raising in space the three-dimensional positions of the junction points of the applicator members to the sleeve, and by electing the line closest to this set of points.
La deuxième direction peut être déterminée en relevant le vecteur directeur de chacun des organes d'applications de la rangée, et en calculant un vecteur directeur moyen à partir de ceux-ci. La deuxième direction est définie par une droite de vecteur directeur ce vecteur directeur moyen intersectant la première direction.The second direction can be determined by raising the director vector of each of the row application members, and calculating a mean direction vector therefrom. The second direction is defined by a vector line direction that average direction vector intersecting the first direction.
Selon l'invention, le plan d'application forme un angle non nul, compris entre 2° et 30°, et de préférence entre 2° et 15°, avec l'axe longitudinal X. L'angle entre une droite de l'espace et un plan de l'espace est défini par l'angle formé entre cette droite et la projection orthogonale de cette droite sur le plan considéré. Dans le cas d'un axe longitudinal courbe, on mesurera l'angle entre la tangente à cet axe longitudinal courbe et le plan d'application en tout point d'intérêt. Si l'axe longitudinal courbe est inclus dans un plan, on mesurera l'angle entre ce plan et le plan d'application. Un angle entre deux plans est déterminé par l'angle formé entre les normales à ces deux plans. Des études montrent qu'un résultat satisfaisant est obtenu lorsque l'angle entre le plan d'application et la direction longitudinale X est compris entre 2° et 30°, et de préférence entre 2° et 15°.According to the invention, the application plane forms a non-zero angle, between 2 ° and 30 °, and preferably between 2 ° and 15 °, with the longitudinal axis X. The angle between a straight line of the space and a plane of space is defined by the angle formed between this line and the orthogonal projection of this line on the plane considered. In the case of a curved longitudinal axis, the angle between the tangent to this curved longitudinal axis and the plane of application at any point of interest shall be measured. If the curved longitudinal axis is included in a plane, the angle between this plane and the plane of application will be measured. An angle between two planes is determined by the angle formed between the normals at these two planes. Studies show that a satisfactory result is obtained when the angle between the application plane and the longitudinal direction X is between 2 ° and 30 °, and preferably between 2 ° and 15 °.
Il résulte de cette construction que, selon qu'il est considéré en vue arrière ou en vue avant, le composant 6 présente une géométrie sensiblement différente. Dans l'exemple purement illustratif représenté, en vue de derrière, les organes d'application 131 les plus proximaux s'étendent sensiblement radialement selon un axe longitudinal intersectant l'axe longitudinal X et, par conséquent, de manière sensiblement normale à la surface externe 11 circulaire du manchon 12 (
Les organes d'application 1340 les plus distaux s'étendent quant à eux sensiblement selon un axe n'intersectant pas l'axe longitudinal X et, de manière sensiblement tangente à la surface externe 11 circulaire du manchon 12.The

Par ailleurs, les organes d'application 13 peuvent présenter, comme cela est visible sur la
Le mode de réalisation présenté jusqu'ici comporte un composant 6 formé d'un manchon 12 cylindrique creux formé dans un matériau élastomère approprié, et des organes d'application 13 réalisés comme des picots, ou dents, du même matériau, réalisés par exemple par moulage.The embodiment heretofore presented comprises a
Le manchon 12 est emmanché en force par-dessus une extrémité 15 formant harpon, qui le maintient en position après emmanchement.The
La fixation du manchon 12 sur la tige 5 se fait par tout moyen approprié. Par exemple, après mise en place du manchon 12, une opération de bouterolage (non représentée) du harpon est mise en oeuvre, par laquelle la matière plastique du harpon est fondue par apport thermique, afin de former une partie plate, de manière à former un bourrelet verrouillant la sortie intempestive du manchon 12.The attachment of the
En variante ou en complément, on peut prévoir (
Lorsque le manchon 12 coulisse le long de la tige 5 jusque dans sa position emmanchée, les ailettes 20 sont fléchies et reviennent élastiquement dans une gorge 21 correspondante dans laquelle ils verrouillent le manchon contre un mouvement de coulissement opposé du manchon (en particulier lors du passage ultérieur de la brosse dans l'essoreur du flacon de produit cosmétique).When the
Le manchon peut être considéré comme cylindrique lorsqu'il présente une forme légèrement tronconique, l'extrémité distale présentant un diamètre extérieur inférieur de moins de 10%, voire de moins de 5%, au diamètre extérieur de l'extrémité proximale. Les diamètres considérés peuvent par exemple être respectivement de l'ordre de 3,4 millimètres et de 3,6 millimètres. La longueur totale du manchon peut être de l'ordre de 26,1 millimètres et la longueur de la portion distale d'environ 15% à 25% de la longueur totale, par exemple 5,2 millimètres.The sleeve may be considered cylindrical when it has a slightly frustoconical shape, the distal end having an outer diameter less than 10% or less than 5% less than the outside diameter of the proximal end. The diameters considered may for example be respectively of the order of 3.4 millimeters and 3.6 millimeters. The total length of the sleeve may be of the order of 26.1 millimeters and the length of the distal portion of about 15% to 25% of the total length, for example 5.2 millimeters.
Selon une variante de réalisation, telle que représentée sur la
Ainsi, bien que, dans les modes de réalisation présentés, toutes les rangées présentent une géométrie identique, définissant chacune un plan d'application formant un angle identique avec l'axe longitudinal X, on peut prévoir, en variante que toutes les rangées ne soient pas identiques, et en particulier que certaines définissent un plan d'application formant un angle nul avec l'axe longitudinal X.Thus, although, in the embodiments presented, all the rows have an identical geometry, each defining an application plane forming an identical angle with the longitudinal axis X, it is possible, as a variant, that all the rows are not identical. not identical, and in particular that some define an application plane forming a zero angle with the longitudinal axis X.
Ainsi, si on tient la brosse 3 devant soi de la main droite, en plaçant de manière sensiblement horizontale l'axe longitudinal X du manchon 12, dans le mode de réalisation présenté, on notera que la droite D, et par conséquent le plan d'application P, s'étend sensiblement de manière inclinée de bas en haut à mesure que l'on progresse de l'extrémité proximale 6a à l'extrémité distale 6b du composant 6. En la tenant de la main gauche, la droite D s'étend de haut en bas. Toutefois, la géométrie symétrique est envisageable.Thus, if the
Des tests comparatifs ont été réalisés entre une brosse réalisée conformément au mode de réalisation présenté ici, et une brosse similaire (échantillon comparatif) dans laquelle le plan d'application est un plan d'application axial formant un angle nul avec la direction longitudinale X.Comparative tests were carried out between a brush made in accordance with the embodiment presented here, and a similar brush (comparative sample) in which the application plane is an axial application plane forming a zero angle with the longitudinal direction X.
De manière inattendue, ces tests ont permis de mettre en évidence que la brosse conforme au mode de réalisation présenté ici permettait d'obtenir un recourbement plus important des cils que l'échantillon comparatif. Le recourbement des cils était mesuré en considérant l'oeil de profil, et en comparant l'angle formé par le cil avec l'horizontale avant application du mascara et après application du mascara.Unexpectedly, these tests have made it possible to demonstrate that the brush according to the embodiment presented here made it possible to obtain a greater bending of the eyelashes than the comparative sample. The bending of the eyelashes was measured by considering the eye of profile, and comparing the angle formed by the eyelash with the horizontal before application of the mascara and after application of the mascara.
Ces mêmes tests ont permis de mettre en évidence que la brosse selon le mode de réalisation présenté permettait d'obtenir une ouverture de l'oeil plus importante que l'échantillon comparatif. L'ouverture de l'oeil est mesurée en comparant l'angle formé entre les cils inférieurs et les cils supérieurs, en considérant l'oeil de profil avant application du mascara et après application du mascara.These same tests made it possible to highlight that the brush according to the embodiment presented made it possible to obtain a larger opening of the eye. than the comparative sample. The opening of the eye is measured by comparing the angle formed between the lower lashes and the upper lashes, considering the eye of profile before application of the mascara and after application of the mascara.
