Definitions

  • the present invention is in the field of cosmetic packaging that includes an applicator. More particularly, the present invention is a cosmetic applicator formed from ceramic material designed to provide a product chilling effect when applying creams, lotions, treatment products, etc.
  • cosmetic packaging often includes a cosmetic applicator suitable for dispensing the particular cosmetic contained in the package reservoir.
  • the applicator may be a wand with a handle at one end and an applicator head in the form of a brush, spatula or other applicator structure suitable for applying the particular cream, lotion, foundation or color cosmetic.
  • the cosmetic container is a bottle or tube
  • the applicator may be in the form of an applicator tip secured directly to the neck of the bottle or tube, and may additionally be provided with an opening or openings, or a duct or ducts, adapted to expel or express cosmetic product from the container.
  • the applicator head or applicator tip is used to apply and spread the applied product, and may additionally serve to massage the skin of the user in the application area.
  • Applicator heads and applicator tips having a variety of shapes and configurations are known, a number of which are provided with means for heating. Heating the applicator head or applicator tip is said to facilitate treatment and efficacy by, for example, expanding skin pores.
  • Applicators used in combination with heat are disclosed for example in patents, such as, US Pat. No. 2298157 to Phillips or U.S. Publn. No. 2007/0206986 to Gueret .
  • cooling certain skin conditions can have a beneficial effect. For example, cooling the skin area below the eyes has been shown to reduce puffiness. In the past such cooling has been accomplished with, for example, chilled cucumber slices, pre-chilled treatment creams or lotions, or chilled washcloths or cleansing pads.
  • GB2 449 141 A discloses a dispenser comprising a housing having a reservoir containing cosmetic product and a thermal storage tip coupled to the housing.
  • the present invention is a molded-ceramic applicator head or applicator tip designed to provide a relatively larger product-chilling effect to both the dose of cosmetic applied and to the user's skin in the application area when applying creams, lotions, treatment products, etc.
  • the purpose of the invention is to provide an application device which will deliver the creams, lotions, treatment products, etc. such that the temperature of the product being delivered is lower than the temperature of the skin, and to provide a means of lowering the temperature of the skin by virtue of the thermal absorption capacity of the applicator head or tip, and to provide a vehicle by which formulations may be activated or enhanced by specific compounds in the ceramic material from which the applicator tip is comprised.
  • FIGS. 1-4 A cosmetic applicator tip of the present invention for applying a quantity of cosmetic product to an application area on the skin of a user is shown generally in FIGS. 1-4 designated by reference number 2.
  • the terms “applicator tip” and “applicator head” are used interchangeably throughout this application to mean any structure or device provided for use in connection with a cosmetic product and that includes a surface adapted and intended to facilitate the loading, dispensing, transport and application of cosmetic product drawn from the product reservoir and applied to the application area on a user.
  • the applicator tip 2 may take the form of an applicator structure on an applicator device, such as, for example, a tube end dispenser 16 securely mounted in the neck 14 of a tube container 10 that defines a cosmetic product reservoir 12 (as shown in FIG. 1 ).
  • the applicator tip may take the form of a roller ball (not shown - e.g., like a roll-on deodorant applicator) secured in the neck of a tube or bottle container.
  • the applicator tip may take the form of a spatula, spreader, spoon, etc., on a wand or handle (not shown).
  • the applicator tip 2 is intended for use with a cosmetic product P ( FIG. 1 ) that is capable of conducting heat.
  • the applicator tip 2 comprises a body 6 made of a ceramic material. At least one applicator surface 8 is provided on the body 6. In the embodiment shown, a product delivery orifice 20 is provided in the applicator surface 8.
  • An internal product delivery passage 18 in the body 6 provides fluid communication between the reservoir 12 and the orifice 20 to permit product P to flow or be expelled from the reservoir 12 through the orifice 20 to the applicator surface 8.
  • the applicator surface 8 is adapted to receive from the reservoir 12 a pre-determined quantity 4 (represented schematically in broken lines) of cosmetic product P.
  • the applicator tip 2, and in particular, the applicator surface 8, are also adapted to apply the quantity 4 of cosmetic product P to an application area on a user's skin, such as, for example, the puffy area of skin under a user's eye.
  • the pre-determined quantity 4 can be approximately equal to a pre-selected, relatively uniform thickness of product P spread over the total area of the applicator surface 8.
  • the quantity 4 of cosmetic product P has a thermal capacity (thermal capacity is also known as a heat capacity).
  • the application area on the user's skin also has a thermal capacity.
  • the combined thermal capacity of the quantity 4 of cosmetic and the thermal capacity of the application area is defined as the "first thermal capacity".
  • the body 6 is provided in a relatively large mass and made of a material sufficient to act as a thermal sink or a heat sink relative to the first thermal capacity of the quantity 4 of cosmetic product P and application area on the user's skin. As shown in the cross-sectional view in FIG. 1 , the body 6 is formed from a relatively massive amount of material beneath the applicator surface 8 and about the orifice 20 and passage 18. This relatively massive amount of material and the type of material provides to the body 6 a second thermal capacity that is substantially greater than the first thermal capacity.
  • the second thermal capacity of the body 6 is greater than the first thermal capacity of the quantity 4 of cosmetic product and application area on the user's skin, and because the applicator tip 2 will generally be at temperature close to an ambient air temperature, thermal energy in the form of heat will be drawn from the higher temperature of the user's skin to the applicator tip either through the quantity 4 of cosmetic product P or through direct contact of the applicator tip 2 to the user's skin.
  • the second thermal capacity of the body 6 draws thermal energy in the form of heat from the first thermal capacity of the quantity of cosmetic product 4 and the application area on the user's skin such that a chilling sensation or effect is provided to the skin of the user. This chilling sensation or effect is believed to reduce, for example, the puffiness associated with the skin area below the eye.
  • the applicator tip 2 can be chilled by, for example, refrigerating the package or dipping the applicator tip 2 into cool water or other liquid.
  • the cosmetic applicator tip 2 may be provided with means for attaching the body to a wand (not shown) or a package.
  • the package illustrated is a tube container 10 with a neck 12.
  • the neck 12 includes external threads 22 for attaching a closure cap (not shown) over the applicator tip 2.
  • the tip 2 has an upper portion 24 below which is a reduced diameter portion 26 defined between an upper annular shoulder 28 and lower annular shoulder 30.
  • a reduced diameter portion 32 of neck 14 of tube container 10 is received in press fit in the reduced diameter portion 26 of the applicator 2 between the upper annular shoulder 28 and the lower annular shoulder 30.
  • Other means for attaching the body to a wand or package may be provided, such as, for example, threaded attachment, bayonet attachment, rod-in-bore, bonded, welded, glued, interference or friction fit, etc.
  • the ratio of the first thermal capacity of the quantity of cosmetic product and the application area of the user's skin to the second thermal capacity of the applicator tip is in the range of at least 1:2, but preferably a much higher ratio, such as, for example 1:5 or 1:10 or 1:20 or greater.
  • the greater the ratio the more quickly the chilling effect will be felt and the effect will be felt by the user for a longer period of time.
  • the applicator tip 2 is made from a ceramic material.
  • the ceramic material is made by a high-temperature, fired-ceramic process, e.g., sintered.
  • the parts are formed for example, by injection molding (e.g. colloidal slurry), thermoforming, dry pressing, gel casting, hot isostatic pressing, slip casting or other known molding methods.
  • the parts may be made by jiggering or jolleying.
  • the ceramic material preferably includes aluminum. More particularly, at least one component of the ceramic material is selected from aluminum oxide or aluminum nitride, or combinations thereof.
  • the applicator tip 2 may be made at least in part from a silicon carbide.
  • the ceramic material comprises concentrations ranging from 0.1 % to 99.9% of the mass of the body 6. More preferably, the ceramic material comprises concentrations ranging from 94% to 99.9% of the mass of the body.
  • the material of the body 6 may also include minerals to improve the efficacy and/or the beneficial effect of the cosmetic product applied to the application area.
  • the minerals may include tourmaline, jade, calcite, agate, etc.
  • the invention is unique in several ways:
  • Applicator tips made according to the invention are free of any oxidation or corrosion issues common to some metals, and are inherently more shock resistant than comparable parts manufactured of glass.
  • ceramic material can be specifically designed to provide a thermal capacity with a thermal coefficient and heat-absorption profile optimal for any given formula being delivered, thereby enhancing the performance of the formula to suit a particular formula or treatment regimen. This cannot be achieved with comparable metal or glass components used for similar purposes.
  • the ceramic materials disclosed above may be alloyed or impregnated with specific minerals or other compounds that provide enhanced performance of the cosmetic product being delivered by the applicator tip.
  • the alloyed or impregnated minerals or compounds will tend to interact with the cosmetic product as it passes through or over the applicator tip.
  • the alloyed or impregnated minerals or compounds may gradually dissolve into the cosmetic product as it passes through or over the applicator tip.
  • These minerals include, but are not limited to, tourmaline, jade, calcite, agate, etc.
  • the materials previously used to provide a chilling effect in current applications of comparable designs are difficult or impossible to mold with sufficiently-fine details, such as, small orifices or passages for product delivery.
  • Glass or metal materials may require a secondary operation to form fine details such as a product delivery orifice or product delivery passage or duct, and due to manufacturing constraints the details are generally larger than desired.
  • this may require, for example, lining the orifice or passage with a secondary material (e.g., plastic or rubber) which may not have ideal thermal capacity or transfer characteristics or cosmetic product compatibility.
  • a secondary material e.g., plastic or rubber
  • the orifices and/or passages can be made as small in diameter as desired with no secondary operations, which provides fine-diameter orifices and/or passages with full-diameter contact with the thermal capacity of the ceramic, thereby increasing the chilling effect and delivering product which may be cooler than the product being stored in the container.
  • the advantage of the invention from a physical and manufacturing perspective is that the technology available to form ceramic parts provides a means to produce geometries, surface textures, and component details that are either unavailable in comparable metal and glass components, or require significant and complicated secondary operations to achieve the same effect.
  • the technology can be used to manufacture applicators and application system components for the delivery of creams, lotions, skin treatment products, hair treatment products, color cosmetics, etc. It can also be used to manufacture tools and devices for the manipulation and doctoring of creams, lotions, skin treatment products, color cosmetics, etc. once they have been applied.
  • the applicator tip is comprised of a ceramic material comprised of aluminum oxide, and/or aluminum nitride, and/or silicon carbide, possibly containing one or a combination of natural or man-made chemicals or minerals. It would be designed in a geometry which lends itself to a specific purpose relative to the formula being delivered (examples include an under-eye applicator designed for an under-eye formula; a hair-treatment applicator designed for a hair treatment formula, etc).
  • the shape of the applicator is also designed in such a way to allow easy assembly to a suitable package or wand/handle without the need for additional components to retain it, e.g., to the package. This is facilitated by virtue of the processes inherent to the manufacture of ceramic materials. Such details are difficult or impossible to manufacture with other materials generally used for the same purpose (metals, glass, etc.) without the need for extensive post-processing and finishing.
  • the orifice or orifices and/or passage or passages of the applicator tip through which the product flows can be designed in various size diameters and positional arrays, and the application surface itself can me molded with a variety of textures and details to enhance the effectiveness of the delivery and the performance of the application. Such details are difficult or impossible to manufacture with other materials generally used for the same purpose (metals, glass, etc.) without the need for extensive post-processing and finishing.
  • the applicator would be made of high-temperature, fired-ceramic material (aluminum nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, etc.), with concentrations ranging from 0.1% to 99.9%, but preferably from 94% to 99.9% aluminum nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, etc.
  • a variety of compounds may be added to the ceramic mixture and trapped or bonded within the structure of the ceramic material during the manufacturing process. These compounds and/or minerals enhance the efficacy of the product being delivered and/or the beneficial effect of the ceramic component in delivery and application of the product being delivered.
  • the compounds include, but are not limited to, tourmaline, jade, calcite and agate.
  • formula being delivered would flow through the passage and orifice and around at least part of the application surface of the tip, contacting the ceramic surfaces which would deliver the product as cold as possible relative to the thermal mass of the device by providing an optimum contact-surface for maximum thermal-exchange between both the formula and the applicator and the skin and the applicator concurrently.
  • the conical configuration of passage 18 facilitates such thermal transfer by providing greater surface area for cosmetic product to contact as it passes through the applicator tip 2.
  • the passage has an inwardly directed surface 34 through which the product is delivered which has an included draft angle A of no less than 1 degree, and no more than 45 degrees, which is believed to provide an optimum balance of thermal-absorption (heat absorption), product flow, and manufacturing requirements.
