Definitions
- the invention relates to a scraper according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such scrapers are known in a variety of embodiments. They are used to strip cosmetic applicators, which are dipped in a cosmetic container to take there the required amount of the cosmetic to be applied and which are then pulled out of the cosmetic container to apply this cosmetic. In such a method for loading the applicator care must be taken that the applicator is not excessively loaded and the applicator handle is even as small as possible with cosmetic mass.
- scrapers are usually provided in such Kosmetiktechniken in the neck of cosmetic bottles.
- excess cosmetic is removed from the applicator and in particular also from its stem.
- the scraper according to the invention has a substantially sleeve-shaped scraper body. This can be installed in a preferably round container neck.
- the wiper according to the invention is characterized in that the passage formed in the interior of the wiper body for the cosmetics applicator is subdivided, at least in regions, by a dividing wall into two passage parts extending side by side. Of these, anyone can take a part of the cosmetics applicator, namely a handle together with the attached applicator.
- the scrapers according to the invention are equipped so that their partition extends in the direction of the imaginary longitudinal axis of the respective scraper over at least 1/4, more preferably at least 1/2 of the length of the scraper.
- a certain spatial extension of the partition wall is a prerequisite for a good stripping effect.
- the scraper has a collar for supporting the scraper on a cosmetic container against forces acting in the direction of its longitudinal axis L.
- the dividing wall should terminate on the container-inward side of the stripper below the collar.
- the wiper a wiper lip in the form of a Having a reduced diameter portion at its Be Scholein5.rtigen end and / or a wiper lip in the form of a circumferential, extending transversely to the direction of insertion of the applicator, strip-like depression has at its container-unequal end.
- Such a construction allows the scraper contact only very locally with the stalk to be stripped or the brush to be stripped and therefore improves the stripping effect.
- the partition at the height at which the wiper body forms said wiper lip has a thickening substantially transverse to the direction of advance of the applicator, preferably in the form of a ledge raised from the adjoining surfaces of the partition extends over the entire width of the partition.
- a "width" of the partition wall is here understood to mean the greater extent of the partition perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L. It significantly improves the wiping effect, if the partition does not rest against the leg to be stripped on the entire surface, but locally, which is achieved by said separating strip.
- the wall thickness of the partition wall decreases from the monovalent end of the scraper in the direction of its container-valued end.
- the scraper is designed and dimensioned in this way and also has at least one locking element, with the aid of which in the direction of the longitudinal axis so can be set on the cosmetic container, that he the rotational movement of the cosmetic applicator when mounting and screwing the Cosmetic unit can follow and is still held securely on the cosmetic container when removing the cosmetic applicator.
- a scraper designed in such a way is thus such that, although it is positively connected to the Container neck is kept, but so loose that it can rotate in the container neck.
- the special challenge is to ensure that the scraper seals securely against the container neck as soon as it is forced by the screw cap or the attached applicator pressure in the direction of the longitudinal axis L.
- it may be useful to provide a pronounced collar on the scraper under which, for example, finds a relatively soft seal that seals the gap between the collar and the container neck when the scraper in the direction of the longitudinal axis against the Container neck is pressed.
- tapered sealing surfaces ie a kind of tapered contact with the container neck abuts against a conical counter surface in the region of the collar of the scraper and seals reliably when the scraper is pressed by the lid or the attached applicator against the bottle neck. If the angle of said cone is chosen so that no self-locking occurs, it would also ensure that the scraper regains its mobility in the circumferential direction as soon as it is no longer pressed by a pressure in the direction of the longitudinal axis against the container neck.
- the collar consists of a rubber-elastic material or in which the collar carries a rubber-elastic coating at least in the region of its sealing surfaces.
- Such a two-stage scraper with its locally soft elastic trim also seals particularly well against the container neck, as soon as it is pressed against this in the direction of the longitudinal axis.
- the stripper body comprises a first part which is rotatably held a second part.
- the first part is designed so that it can be fixed to a cosmetic container as intended.
- the second part of the wiper comprises the actual wiper lip and the said partition which divides the passage provided by the second part of the wiper for the cosmetic applicator into two adjacent passage parts.
- Such a two-part construction of the scraper has the great advantage that the forceps applicator provided for cooperation with the scraper, despite the fact that his two stems stuck in different für constitution the scraper can be rotated. This is because the rotatably mounted on the first, fixed part mounted lower part of the scraper rotates. This has the great advantage that the cosmetic unit can be constructed simpler overall. It no longer requires a separate cap and a separate tweezers applicator. Rather, the tweezers applicator can be integrated into the cap and rotated after threading in the wiper together with the cap to screw the cosmetics container. It is particularly preferred to rotatably lock the first part of the wiper body and the second part of the wiper body together.
- FIG. 1 and the FIG. 2 show a first embodiment of the scraper 1 according to the invention.
- the scraper 1 has a substantially sleeve-shaped scraper body 2, ie a scraper body 2, which essentially has the shape of a "tube", which generally has a round cross-section.
- the stripper body 2 is thin-walled, its wall thickness is preferably at least 0.25 mm, more preferably at least 0.4 mm and a maximum of 1.5 mm.
- the scraper 1 is usually made of a plastic or an elastomer or even a rubber-elastic material.
- the scraper body 2 can be made in one component, d. H. consist of only a single material. It is then particularly easy to manufacture, which is of great importance for a disposable part.
- the stripper body 2 may be made multi-component and z. Example, consist of a basic element of a hard plastic that an existing of a softer or even rubber-elastic material area is molded, which forms the collar 4 and / or the wiper lip 3.
- the stripper body 2 preferably tapers towards its container interior end and thereby forms a stripper lip 3.
- the scraper 1 is for installation in a preferably round Container neck provided and configured accordingly. He carries on its side facing away from the container interior a collar 4, with which it is supported against the bottleneck or the upper end of the container in which it is installed. This ensures that the scraper 1 is not pressed into the cosmetic container 10 by the forces arising during the insertion of the applicator 14. He also seals the bottle.
- a locking means that is designed here in the form of a locking bead 5. This engages when properly mounted the scraper 1 in a corresponding locking groove 21, 22 of the container neck.
- the locking bead 5 and the outer diameter DA of the Abstreifer stresses 2 below the collar 4 are designed so that the scraper 1 is held rotationally fixed on the bottle neck after proper installation.
- the wiper lip 3 is given the necessary elasticity either solely by the material of the wiper 1 and / or by the configuration in the region of the wiper lip 3, so that it can resiliently rest on the handle to be wiped and the applicator 14 to be wiped off.
- a suitable embodiment may be, for example, to provide the outer wall of the wiper body 2 in the region of the wiper lip 3 with slots 6. Such slots 6 then divide the stripper body 2 into a series of individual segments whose elasticity is much higher than that of the self-contained stripper body 2.
- the slots 6 can lie in a plane which intersects the longitudinal axis L of the stripper 1 or in FIG a plane which is skewed to the longitudinal axis L. In many cases, it is particularly advantageous if the slots 6 are not rectilinear are, but lie for example on a helix.
- the passage 8 of the scraper 1 is divided by a partition 7 in two adjacent passage parts 8a and 8b.
- the partition wall 7 is preferably flat and preferably at least predominantly or in most cases even substantially smooth. As a rule, it is formed by a continuous, non-perforated wall and injected integrally together with the remaining stripper body 2 in one step. It then preferably consists of the same material as the remaining Abstreifer stresses 2. However, there may be cases in which it is expedient to perform the partition 7 with openings or as a kind of sieve.
- the production takes place in such a way that the correspondingly perforated or perforated dividing wall 7 is produced in a first step and then encapsulated during spraying of the actual wiper body 2 in the region of the outer walls of the wiper body 2.
- the partition wall 7 tapers from the inside end JE of the scraper 1 towards the outside end AE of the scraper 1. It is expedient that the partition wall 7 has its greatest strength at the level of the scraper lip 3, since it is most intimately attached to it should beproofstMailden area of the applicator 14.
- the thickness of the partition wall 7 is about 10-30% less than the wall thickness of the Abstreifer emotionss 2. This is readily possible, since the partition 7 as a rule along the entire length of its transition to the Abstreifer endeavor second is attached to these and is thus held by this "spanned".
- the partition 7 extends in a plane that lies on the midline L
- the passage 8 is thereby divided into two equal passage parts 8a, 8b.
- the partition 7 extends in the present embodiment over at least 6/7 of the length of the scraper 1 in the direction of the longitudinal axis L of time. This is especially beneficial.
- the length of the partition wall 7 is at least 1/4 of the length of the scraper 1 in the direction of the longitudinal axis L, better still at least 1/2 of the length of the scraper 1 in this direction.
- This thickening 9 is preferably carried out on each side of the partition wall 7 as a kind of strip, each extending in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L of an outer wall of the Abstreifer endeavors 2 to the other outer wall of the Abstreifer stressess 2.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 show how the scraper 1 according to the invention is expediently used and what effect it unfolds.
- the FIG. 6 shows a cosmetics container 10, which is designed here as a mascara bottle.
- the cosmetic container 10 has a container part 11 and a neck portion 12, which in turn is equipped with an external thread.
- the scraper 1 is inserted in the neck portion 12. It is latched to the neck portion 12 with the aid of the locking bead 5. At the same time it is tillstüzt by its collar 4 in the direction of the longitudinal axis L against the neck portion 12. In this way, the scraper 1 is set in the direction of the longitudinal axis L up and down. Compared to a rotational movement in the circumferential direction of the scraper 1 is essentially by the frictional forces between fixed to him and the neck portion 12.
- a lid 13 On the neck portion 12, a lid 13 is screwed, which holds a Kosmetikapplikator 14 in place by pressing on the uppermost part of the handle 15.
- the cosmetic applicator 14 is here designed as a so-called “tweezers applicator", d. H. his grip 15 represents a resilient connection between two stems 16a and 16b. At the lower end of the two stems 16a, 16b, which are no longer shown here because of the demolition line, an applicator element is attached, for example in the form of an injection-molded mascara brush, which is attached to its end Outer circumference is occupied by bristles.
- the first pass-through part 8a of the scraper 1 is penetrated by the first handle 16a of the applicator 14.
- the second passage part 8b is penetrated by the handle 16b of the applicator 14.
- the partition 7 has Immunschmiegt.
- the wiper lip 3 of the wiper 1 the situation in the region of the wiper lip 3 of the wiper 1 is that the wiper lip 3, which is formed by the inwardly drawn portion of the wiper body 2, bears all around the stems 16a and 16b which together form a body having a substantially circular cross section form.
- the dividing wall 7 with its thickening 9 bears against the insides of the two stems 16a and 16b, which in each case form a flat contact surface in this area.
- the two stems 16a and 16b do not necessarily have to form a flat contact surface but, for example, can also form a corrugated surface. If so, then of course the partition 7 must adapt accordingly and have a corresponding profile.
- the stems 16a and 16b all around are stripped, as soon as the cosmetics applicator 14 is pulled up in the direction of arrow P from the cosmetics container 10 to apply cosmetics.
- the applicator elements attached to the ends of the stems 16a and 16b are preferably also stripped as soon as they pass through the first passage part 8a or the second passage part 8b.
- the scraper 1 Since the scraper 1 is fixed to the cosmetic container 10, the reinsertion of the cosmetic applicator 14 must be made so as to first seek the correct position of the cosmetic applicator 14 suitable for insertion.
- the cosmetic applicator 14 is pushed through the scraper 1 and introduced into the cosmetic container 10. Once he has reached his final position, the lid 13 can be screwed again, which holds the whole ensemble together. Characterized in that the cosmetic applicator 14 and the lid 13 of the cosmetic unit are designed here as two non-interconnected parts, the cosmetic applicator 14 does not have to be rotated together with the lid when closing the cosmetic unit. He is therefore coping with the immobile in the bottleneck set scraper 1.
- FIGS. 8 to 13 show a second embodiment of the invention.
- the above for the first embodiment of the invention applies to this second embodiment in the same way, with the exception of those differences resulting from the bipartite of the scraper, which will be described in more detail below.
- the scraper 1 is divided in this embodiment into a first scraper part 17 and a second scraper part 18, which together the Form the stripper body 2.
- the two scraper parts 17, 18 are positively locked to each other and slightly rotated in the new state against each other.
- the form-fitting elements 19, 20, 21 and 22 are designed or tolerated so that the second wiper member 18 is not only rotatable in the new state, but remains rotatable over the entire intended intended life of the scraper designed as a disposable part away.
- each of the wiper parts 17, 18 with a locking lug 19, 20 and at the same time with a locking groove 21, 22 carried out, so that each wiper member 17, 18 is locked with its own detent on the other wiper part.
- the first wiper part 17 is rotationally fixed at the neck portion 12 of the cosmetic container 10 when properly mounted.
- the first wiper part 17 is not equipped with a dividing wall 7, but forms a single, uniform passage 8, which is penetrated by both stems of the tweezer-like applicator 14.
- Only the second, movable scraper 18 is equipped with a partition 7.
- the partition wall 7 preferably extends at least substantially over the entire length of the movable second scraper part 18 in the direction of the longitudinal axis L. However, at least the partition wall 7 extends over at least 1/2 of the length of the second scraper part 18 in the direction of the longitudinal axis L extends.
- the thickening 9 which has the partition wall 7 of the second scraper part 18 in the area in which the inwardly drawn-in part of the scraper body 2 forms the scraper lip 3.
- the second wiper member 18 is rotatably fixed to the fixed first wiper member 17, it is possible to unite the Kosmetikapplikator 14 with the preferably designed as a screw cap cover 13, as it is, for example, also from many mascara applicators ago knows.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Abstreifer nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a scraper according to the preamble of
Solche Abstreifer sind in den unterschiedlichsten Ausführungsformen bekannt. Sie dienen dazu, Kosmetikapplikatoren abzustreifen, die in einen Kosmetikbehälter getaucht werden um dort die benötigte Menge des zu applizierenden Kosmetikums aufzunehmen und die anschließend aus dem Kosmetikbehälter herausgezogen werden um dieses Kosmetikum zu applizieren. Bei einem solchen Verfahren zum Befrachten des Applikators muss dafür gesorgt werden, dass der Applikator nicht übermäßig und der Applikatorstiel sogar nur möglichst gering mit Kosmetikmasse befrachtet wird.Such scrapers are known in a variety of embodiments. They are used to strip cosmetic applicators, which are dipped in a cosmetic container to take there the required amount of the cosmetic to be applied and which are then pulled out of the cosmetic container to apply this cosmetic. In such a method for loading the applicator care must be taken that the applicator is not excessively loaded and the applicator handle is even as small as possible with cosmetic mass.
Daher sind üblicherweise bei solchen Kosmetikeinheiten im Hals der Kosmetikfläschchen Abstreifer vorgesehen. An diesem streift der Stiel eines Applikators und später auch das daran befestigte Applikatorelement bzw. -bürstchen entlang, wenn der Applikator aus dem Vorratsbehälter herausgezogen wird. Dabei wird überschüssiges Kosmetikum von dem Applikator und insbesondere auch von dessen Stiel entfernt.Therefore, scrapers are usually provided in such Kosmetikeinheiten in the neck of cosmetic bottles. At this stems the handle of an applicator and later also attached thereto applicator or brush along when the applicator is pulled out of the reservoir. In this case, excess cosmetic is removed from the applicator and in particular also from its stem.
Die meisten der gebräuchlichen Applikatoren haben einen einzigen Stiel oder Schaft mit einem einzigen daran befestigten Kosmetikbürstchen.Most of the common applicators have a single stem or stem with a single cosmetic brush attached thereto.
Im Anwendungsbereich von flüssigen und pastösen Kosmetik-Medien und insbesondere im Bereich der Anmeldung von Mascaramassen besteht jedoch hin und wieder Bedarf, Applikatoren einzusetzen, mit denen sich besondere Effekte erreichen lassen, z. B. ein sogenanntes Curling, d. h. ein spezielles Krümmen der mit der Mascaramasse benetzten Augenwimpern. Um solche Effekte verwirklichen zu können kommen zum Teil sog. "Pinzettenapplikatoren" zum Einsatz wie beispielsweise im
Abgesehen von den frühen, zum Teil recht unbeholfen wirkenden Pinzettenapplikatoren sind in jüngerer Zeit recht praktikable Applikatoren entwickelt worden. Diese entsprechen, grob gesagt, einem herkömmlichen Applikator nur mit dem Unterschied, dass der Stiel entlang der Längsachse in zwei Teile unterteilt ist. Diese beiden Teile werden miteinander verbunden und können pinzettenartig zusammengedrückt werden. An ihrem Ende tragen sie jeweils ein Applikatorelement.Apart from the early, sometimes awkward acting forceps applicators quite practical applicators have been developed recently. Roughly speaking, these correspond to a conventional applicator only with the difference that the stem is divided into two parts along the longitudinal axis. These two parts are connected together and can be compressed like a tweezer. At their end, they each carry an applicator element.
Es ist bereits versucht worden diese modernen Pinzettenapplikatoren mit Abstreifern abzustreifen. Die herkömmlichen Abstreifer arbeiten auch bei solchen Pinzettenapplikatoren relativ gut insoweit, als sie tatsächlich den Außenumfang des Stiels recht gut abzustreifen vermögen und auch die Außenbereiche der beiden aneinanderliegenden Auftragselemente. Problem bereitet aber derjenige Überschuss an Macaramasse der sich in dem Spalt aufhält, über den die beiden Stiele aneinander liegen. Darüber hinaus bereitet auch derjenige Überschuss an flüssiger oder pastöser Masse Probleme, der sich in dem Bereich befindet, an dem die beiden Applikatoren bzw. Bürsten aneinanderliegen.It has already been tried to strip these modern tweezer applicators with scrapers. The conventional scrapers work even with such tweezers applicators relatively well insofar as they are able to strip off the outer circumference of the stem quite well and also the outer areas of the two adjoining applicator elements. Problem but the surplus of macaramass that lingers in the gap over which the two stems rest. In addition, also the excess of liquid or pasty mass prepares problems, which is located in the area where the two applicators or brushes against each other.
Angesichts dessen ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung einen Abstreifer zu schaffen, mit dessen Hilfe es gelingt Pinzettenapplikatoren annähernd so sauber abzustreifen, wie die bekannten einstieligen Applikatoren.In view of this, it is the object of the invention to provide a scraper, with the help of which it succeeds tweezers applicators almost as clean strip, as the known einstieligen applicators.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1.The solution of this object is achieved by the features of
Der erfindungsgemäße Abstreifer besitzt einen im Wesentlichen hülsenförmigen Abstreiferkörper. Dieser kann in einen vorzugsweise runden Behälterhals eingebaut werden. Der erfindungsgemäße Abstreifer ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der im Inneren des Abstreiferkörpers ausgebildete Durchlass für den Kosmetikapplikator zumindest bereichsweise durch eine Trennwand in zwei nebeneinander verlaufende Durchlassteile unterteilt wird. Von diesen kann jeder einen Teil des Kosmetikapplikators aufnehmen, nämlich einen Stiel samt des daran befestigten Applikators.The scraper according to the invention has a substantially sleeve-shaped scraper body. This can be installed in a preferably round container neck. The wiper according to the invention is characterized in that the passage formed in the interior of the wiper body for the cosmetics applicator is subdivided, at least in regions, by a dividing wall into two passage parts extending side by side. Of these, anyone can take a part of the cosmetics applicator, namely a handle together with the attached applicator.
Mit einer solchen Konstruktion ist es nicht schwer, für jeden der beiden Applikatorstiele eine umlaufende Abstreiferlippe bereitzustellen, d. h. eine Abstreiferlippe, die den jeweiligen Stiel und das daran befestigte Auftragselement über die gesamte Umfangsfläche hinweg abstreift. Mit Hilfe eines solchen Abstreifers lassen sich nunmehr Kosmetikeinheiten mit Pinzetten Applikatoren bauen, deren Pinzettenapplikatoren beim Eintauchen in den Kosmetikvorrat und beim Wiederherausziehen aus demselben jeweils mit einer wohldefinierten Menge von Kosmetik- bzw. Mascaramasse befrachtet werden und die darüber hinaus sehr sauber handhabbar sind, weil am Pinzettenapplikator keine unabgestreiften "toten Winkel" verbleiben, aus denen der Benutzerin unerwartet überschüssige Masse entgegentropfen kann.With such a construction, it is not difficult to provide a circumferential wiper lip for each of the two applicator handles, ie, a wiper lip which wipes the respective handle and attached applicator over the entire peripheral surface. With the help of such a scraper can now be cosmetic units with tweezers build applicators whose tweezer applicators when immersed in the cosmetics stock and when removing them from the same each with a well-defined amount of cosmetics or Moreover, the tweezer applicator leaves no indistinct "blind spots" from which the user can unexpectedly disintegrow excess mass.
Vorzugsweise werden die erfindungsgemäßen Abstreifer so ausgestattet, dass sich ihre Trennwand in Richtung der gedachten Längsachse des jeweiligen Abstreifers über mindestens 1/4, besser mindestens 1/2 der Länge des Abstreifers erstreckt. Eine gewisse räumliche Erstreckung der Trennwand ist Voraussetzung für eine gute Abstreifwirkung. Zwar ist es vom Grundsatz her vorstellbar auch schon dadurch eine gewisse Abstreifwirkung zu erzielen, dass statt einer Trennwand nur eine Art "Trennbalken" vorgesehen wird, der den Durchlass im Inneren des Abstreiferkörpers nur sehr lokal in zwei Durchlasshälften aufteilt. Eine solche "Minimal-Lösung" zeigt aber nur eine weit verringerte Abstreifwirkung. Sie ist daher lediglich rein der Vollständigkeit halber schutzrechtsgemäß, wird aber nur sehr sekundär beansprucht und nicht als besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsform.Preferably, the scrapers according to the invention are equipped so that their partition extends in the direction of the imaginary longitudinal axis of the respective scraper over at least 1/4, more preferably at least 1/2 of the length of the scraper. A certain spatial extension of the partition wall is a prerequisite for a good stripping effect. Although it is conceivable in principle even by a certain stripping effect to achieve that instead of a partition only a kind of "divider" is provided, which divides the passage in the interior of the Abstreiferkörpers only very locally in two half-passage. However, such a "minimal solution" only shows a far reduced wiping effect. It is therefore purely for the sake of completeness in accordance with protective rights, but is claimed only very secondary and not as a particularly preferred embodiment.
Im Rahmen einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Abstreifer einen Kragen zum Abstützen des Abstreifers an einem Kosmetikbehälter gegenüber Kräften aufweist, die in Richtung seiner Längsachse L wirken. Bei dieser besonderen Ausführungsform soll die Trennwand auf der behältereinwärtigen Seite des Abstreifers unterhalb des Kragens enden. Ein derart ausgestalteter Abstreifer lässt sich leicht montieren und insbesondere leicht mit dem Behälterhals verrasten, ohne dabei die Trennwand einer übermäßigen elastischen oder gar elastoplastischen Verformung unterziehen zu müssen. Dies schont im Regelfall die Trennwand.In the context of a preferred embodiment it is provided that the scraper has a collar for supporting the scraper on a cosmetic container against forces acting in the direction of its longitudinal axis L. In this particular embodiment, the dividing wall should terminate on the container-inward side of the stripper below the collar. Such a scraper designed in this way can be easily mounted and in particular easily latched to the container neck, without having to subject the partition to excessive elastic or even elastoplastic deformation. This usually spares the partition.
Im Rahmen einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Abstreifer eine Abstreiferlippe in Gestalt eines durchmesserreduzierten Bereichs an seinem behältereinwärtigen Ende aufweist und/oder eine Abstreiferlippe in Gestalt einer umlaufenden, quer zur Durchschubrichtung des Applikators verlaufenden, leistenartigen Vertiefung an seinem behältereinwertigen Ende aufweist. Eine solche Konstruktion lässt den Abstreifer nur sehr lokal mit dem abzustreifenden Stiel bzw. der abzustreifenden Bürste in Kontakt treten und verbessert daher die Abstreifwirkung.In a preferred embodiment, it is provided that the wiper a wiper lip in the form of a Having a reduced diameter portion at its Behäleinwärtigen end and / or a wiper lip in the form of a circumferential, extending transversely to the direction of insertion of the applicator, strip-like depression has at its container-unequal end. Such a construction allows the scraper contact only very locally with the stalk to be stripped or the brush to be stripped and therefore improves the stripping effect.
Besonders bevorzugt wird dafür gesorgt, dass die Trennwand auf der Höhe, auf der der Abstreiferkörper die besagte Abstreiferlippe ausbildet, eine im Wesentlichen quer zur Durchschubrichtung des Applikators verlaufende Verdickung aufweist, vorzugsweise in Gestalt einer gegenüber den sich anschließenden Oberflächen der Trennwand erhabene Leiste, welche sich über die gesamte Breite der Trennwand erstreckt. Unter einer "Breite" der Trennwand wird dabei hier die größere Erstreckung der Trennwand senkrecht zur Längsachse L verstanden. Es verbessert die Abstreifwirkung erheblich, wenn die Trennwand nicht auf ganzer Fläche gegen die abzustreifenden Schenkel anliegt, sondern lokal, was durch die besagte Trennleiste erreicht wird.Particularly preferably, it is ensured that the partition at the height at which the wiper body forms said wiper lip has a thickening substantially transverse to the direction of advance of the applicator, preferably in the form of a ledge raised from the adjoining surfaces of the partition extends over the entire width of the partition. A "width" of the partition wall is here understood to mean the greater extent of the partition perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L. It significantly improves the wiping effect, if the partition does not rest against the leg to be stripped on the entire surface, but locally, which is achieved by said separating strip.
Aus gleichem Grund ist im Rahmen einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass die Wandstärke der Trennwand vom Behälter einwertigen Ende des Abstreifers in Richtung hin zu dessen Behälter auswertigen Ende abnimmt.
Im Rahmen einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Abstreifer derart ausgestaltet und dimensioniert ist und auch mindestens ein Rastelement besitzt, mit dessen Hilfe in Richtung der Längsachse so am Kosmetikbehälter festgesetzt werden kann, dass er der Drehbewegung des Kosmetikapplikators beim Auf- und Zuschrauben der Kosmetikeinheit folgen kann und beim Herausziehen des Kosmetikapplikators dennoch sicher an dem Kosmetikbehälter gehalten wird. Ein solchermaßen ausgestalteter Abstreifer ist also so beschaffen, dass er zwar formschlüssig am Behälterhals gehalten wird, aber derart lose, dass er in dem Behälterhals mitdrehen kann. Die spezielle Herausforderung ist dabei die, dafür zu sorgen, dass der Abstreifer sicher gegen den Behälterhals dichtet, sobald er durch den Schraubverschluss bzw. dem daran befestigten Applikator eine Pressung in Richtung der Längsachse L aufgezwungen bekommt. Um hier für entsprechende Dichtigkeit zu sorgen kann es sinnvoll sein, einen ausgeprägten Kragen an dem Abstreifer vorzusehen, unter dem sich beispielsweise eine relativ weiche Dichtung findet, die den Spalt zwischen dem Kragen und dem Behälterhals abdichtet, wenn der Abstreifer in Richtung der Längsachse gegen den Behälterhals gepresst wird.For the same reason, it is provided in the context of a preferred embodiment that the wall thickness of the partition wall decreases from the monovalent end of the scraper in the direction of its container-valued end.
In the context of another preferred embodiment it is provided that the scraper is designed and dimensioned in this way and also has at least one locking element, with the aid of which in the direction of the longitudinal axis so can be set on the cosmetic container, that he the rotational movement of the cosmetic applicator when mounting and screwing the Cosmetic unit can follow and is still held securely on the cosmetic container when removing the cosmetic applicator. A scraper designed in such a way is thus such that, although it is positively connected to the Container neck is kept, but so loose that it can rotate in the container neck. The special challenge is to ensure that the scraper seals securely against the container neck as soon as it is forced by the screw cap or the attached applicator pressure in the direction of the longitudinal axis L. In order to provide for appropriate tightness here, it may be useful to provide a pronounced collar on the scraper, under which, for example, finds a relatively soft seal that seals the gap between the collar and the container neck when the scraper in the direction of the longitudinal axis against the Container neck is pressed.
Alternativ wäre daran zu denken, sogenannte Kegeldichtflächen vorzusehen, d. h. eine Art kegeliger Anlage am Behälterhals gegen die eine kegelige Gegenfläche im Bereich des Kragens des Abstreifers anliegt und zuverlässig dichtet, sobald der Abstreifer von dem Deckel oder dem daran befestigten Applikator gegen den Flaschenhals gedrückt wird. Sofern der Winkel des besagten Kegels so gewählt wird, dass keine Selbsthemmung auftritt, wäre zugleich sichergestellt, dass der Abstreifer seine Beweglichkeit in Umfangsrichtung wiedererlangt, sobald er nicht mehr durch eine Pressung in Richtung der Längsachse gegen den Behälterhals gepresst wird.
Aus vorerwähnten Gründen ist eine weitere Ausführungsform bevorzugt, bei der der Kragen aus einem gummielastischen Material besteht oder bei der der Kragen zumindest im Bereich seiner Dichtflächen eine gummielastische Beschichtung trägt. Ein solcher zweistofflich ausgeführte Abstreifer mit seinem lokal weichelastischen Besatz dichtet ebenfalls besonders gut gegen den Behälterhals ab, sobald er an diesen in Richtung der Längsachse angepresst wird.Alternatively, it would be thought to provide so-called tapered sealing surfaces, ie a kind of tapered contact with the container neck abuts against a conical counter surface in the region of the collar of the scraper and seals reliably when the scraper is pressed by the lid or the attached applicator against the bottle neck. If the angle of said cone is chosen so that no self-locking occurs, it would also ensure that the scraper regains its mobility in the circumferential direction as soon as it is no longer pressed by a pressure in the direction of the longitudinal axis against the container neck.
For reasons mentioned above, a further embodiment is preferred in which the collar consists of a rubber-elastic material or in which the collar carries a rubber-elastic coating at least in the region of its sealing surfaces. Such a two-stage scraper with its locally soft elastic trim also seals particularly well against the container neck, as soon as it is pressed against this in the direction of the longitudinal axis.
Im Rahmen einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Abstreiferkörper einen ersten Teil umfasst, an dem drehbeweglich ein zweiter Teilgehalten ist. Der erste Teil ist dabei so ausgestaltet, dass er bestimmungsgemäß an einem Kosmetikbehälter festgesetzt werden kann. Der zweite Teil des Abstreifers umfasst die eigentliche Abstreiferlippe und die besagte Trennwand, die den Durchlass, den der zweite Teil des Abstreifers für den Kosmetikapplikator bietet, in zwei nebeneinander verlaufende Durchlassteile unterteilt.In the context of a particularly preferred embodiment, it is provided that the stripper body comprises a first part which is rotatably held a second part. The first part is designed so that it can be fixed to a cosmetic container as intended. The second part of the wiper comprises the actual wiper lip and the said partition which divides the passage provided by the second part of the wiper for the cosmetic applicator into two adjacent passage parts.
Eine derartige, zweiteilige Konstruktion des Abstreifers hat den großen Vorteil, dass der für die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Abstreifer vorgesehene Pinzettenapplikator trotz des Umstandes, dass seine beiden Stiele in unterschiedlichen Durchlassteilen des Abstreifers stecken, gedreht werden kann. Dies deshalb, weil sich der drehbeweglich am ersten, feststehenden Teil gelagerte untere Teil des Abstreifers mitdreht. Das hat den großen Vorteil, dass die Kosmetikeinheit insgesamt einfacher aufgebaut werden kann. Es bedarf nicht mehr einer separaten Verschlusskappe und eines davon getrennten Pinzettenapplikators. Vielmehr kann der Pinzettenapplikator in die Verschlusskappe integriert werden und nach dem Einfädeln in den Abstreifer zusammen mit der Verschlusskappe gedreht werden um den Kosmetikbehälter zuzuschrauben.
Dabei ist es besonders bevorzugt den ersten Teil des Abstreiferkörpers und den zweiten Teil des Abstreiferkörpers drehbar miteinander zu verrasten.Such a two-part construction of the scraper has the great advantage that the forceps applicator provided for cooperation with the scraper, despite the fact that his two stems stuck in different Durchlassteilen the scraper can be rotated. This is because the rotatably mounted on the first, fixed part mounted lower part of the scraper rotates. This has the great advantage that the cosmetic unit can be constructed simpler overall. It no longer requires a separate cap and a separate tweezers applicator. Rather, the tweezers applicator can be integrated into the cap and rotated after threading in the wiper together with the cap to screw the cosmetics container.
It is particularly preferred to rotatably lock the first part of the wiper body and the second part of the wiper body together.

Wie man sieht besitzt der Abstreifer 1 einen im Wesentlichen hülsenförmigen Abstreiferkörper 2, d. h. einen Abstreiferkörper 2, der im Wesentlichen die Gestalt eines "Rohrs" aufweist, das im Regelfall einen runden Querschnitt besitzt. Das in Richtung entlang der Längsachse L gesehen vollständig hohle Innere des Abstreifers 1 bildet einen Durchlass 8, durch den hindurch ein Kosmetikapplikator 14 von außen in einen Kosmetikbehälter 10 eingeführt werden kann und den der Kosmetikapplikator 14 bei seinem Wiederherausziehen aus dem Kosmetikbehälter 10 erneut passiert, vgl.
Der Abstreiferkörper 2 ist dünnwandig, seine Wandstärke beträgt vorzugsweise mindestens 0,25 mm, besser mindestens 0,4 mm und maximal 1,5 mm. Der Abstreifer 1 besteht im Regelfall aus einem Kunststoff oder einem Elastomer bzw. sogar einem gummielastischen Material.The
Der Abstreiferkörper 2 kann einkomponentig ausgeführt sein, d. h. aus nur einem einzigen Material bestehen. Er ist dann besonders einfach herzustellen, was für ein Einwegteil von großer Bedeutung ist. Für anspruchsvollere Anwendungen kann der Abstreiferkörper 2 mehrkomponentig ausgeführt sein und z. B. aus einem Grundelement aus einem harten Kunststoff bestehen, dass ein aus einem weicheren oder sogar gummielastischen Material bestehender Bereich angespritzt ist, der den Kragen 4 und/oder die Abstreiferlippe 3 bildet.The
Der Abstreiferkörper 2 verjüngt sich vorzugsweise zu seinem behälterinnenseitigen Ende hin und bildet hierdurch eine Abstreiferlippe 3 aus.The
Der Abstreifer 1 ist zum Einbau in einen vorzugsweise runden Behälterhals vorgesehen und dementsprechend ausgestaltet. Er trägt auf seiner dem behälterinneren abgewandten Seite einen Kragen 4, mit dem er sich gegen den Flaschenhals bzw. das obere Ende des Behälters, in den er eingebaut wird, abstützt. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass der Abstreifer 1 durch die beim Einschieben des Applikators 14 entstehenden Kräfte nicht in den Kosmetikbehälter 10 gedrückt wird. Ferner dichtet er auch die Flasche ab.The
Auf der behältereinwärtigen Seite des Kragens 4 ist der Abstreiferkörper 2 mit einem Rastmittel versehen, dass hier in Gestalt einer Rastwulst 5 ausgeführt ist. Diese greift bei bestimmungsgemäßer Montage des Abstreifers 1 in eine entsprechende Rastnut 21, 22 des Behälterhalses ein. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Rastwulst 5 und der Außendurchmesser DA des Abstreiferkörpers 2 unterhalb des Kragens 4 so ausgeführt, dass der Abstreifer 1 nach bestimmungsgemäßer Montage verdrehfest am Flaschenhals gehalten wird.On the Behälberereinwärtigen side of the
Der Abstreiferlippe 3 wird entweder allein durch das Material des Abstreifers 1 und/oder auch durch die Ausgestaltung im Bereich der Abstreiferlippe 3 die nötige Elastizität verliehen, so dass sie sich federnd an den abzustreifenden Stiel und den abzustreifenden Applikator 14 anlegen kann. Eine geeignete Ausgestaltung kann es zum Beispiel sein, die Außenwand des Abstreiferkörpers 2 im Bereich der Abstreiferlippe 3 mit Schlitzen 6 zu versehen. Solche Schlitze 6 unterteilen den Abstreiferkörper 2 dann in eine Reihe von einzelnen Segmenten, deren Elastizität weitaus höher ist, als die des in sich geschlossenen Abstreiferkörpers 2. Die Schlitze 6 können in einer Ebene liegen, die die Längsachse L des Abstreifers 1 schneidet oder aber in einer Ebene, die windschief zu der Längsachse L verläuft. In vielen Fällen ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Schlitze 6 nicht geradlinig ausgebildet sind, sondern beispielsweise auf einer Schraubenlinie liegen.The

Vorzugsweise verjüngt sich die Trennwand 7 vom innenseitigen Ende JE des Abstreifers 1 hin zum außenseitigen Ende AE des Abstreifers 1. Es ist zweckmäßig, dass die Trennwand 7 auf der Höhe der Abstreiferlippe 3 ihre größte Stärke hat, da sie dort am innigsten an dem von ihr abzustreifenden Bereich des Applikators 14 anliegen sollte.Preferably, the
Dabei ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Dicke der Trennwand 7 ca. 10-30 % geringer ist, als die Wanddicke des Abstreiferkörpers 2. Dies ist ohne Weiteres möglich, da die Trennwand 7 im Regelfall ein entlang der ganzen Länge ihres Übergangs zum Abstreiferkörper 2 an diesen angebunden ist und dadurch von diesem "aufgespannt" gehalten wird.It is particularly advantageous if the thickness of the
Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel verläuft die Trennwand 7 in einer Ebene, die auf der Mittellinie L liegt. Der Durchlass 8 wird hierdurch in zwei gleich große Durchlassteile 8a, 8b unterteilt. Die Trennwand 7 erstreckt sich im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel über mindestens 6/7 der Länge des Abstreifers 1 in Richtung der Längsachse L hinweg. Das ist besonders vorteilhaft. Generell, so lässt sich sagen, beträgt die Länge der Trennwand 7 mindestens 1/4 der Länge des Abstreifers 1 in Richtung der Längsachse L, besser noch mindestens 1/2 der Länge des Abstreifers 1 in dieser Richtung.In the present embodiment, the

Auf den Halsabschnitt 12 ist ein Deckel 13 aufgeschraubt, der einen Kosmetikapplikator 14 an Ort und Stelle hält, indem er auf den obersten Teil von dessen Griff 15 drückt.On the
Der Kosmetikapplikator 14 ist hier als sogenannter "Pinzettenapplikator" ausgeführt, d. h. sein Griff 15 stellt eine federnde Verbindung zwischen zwei Stielen 16a und 16b dar. Am hier wegen der Abbruchlinie nicht mehr gezeigten unteren Ende der beiden Stiele 16a, 16b ist jeweils ein Applikatorelement befestigt, zum Beispiel in Gestalt eines spritzgegossenen Mascara-Bürstchens, das an seinem Außenumfang mit Borsten besetzt ist.The
Wie man sieht wird der erste Durchlassteil 8a des Abstreifers 1 von dem ersten Stiel 16a des Applikators 14 durchgriffen. In gleicher Weise wird das zweite Durchlassteil 8b von dem Stiel 16b des Applikators 14 durchgriffen. Zwischen die beiden Stiele 16a und 16b hat sich die Trennwand 7 eingeschmiegt. Ausweislich der
Es leuchtet unschwer ein, dass die Stiele 16a und 16b rundum abgestreift werden, sobald der Kosmetikapplikator 14 in Richtung des Pfeils P nach oben aus dem Kosmetikbehälter 10 herausgezogen wird, um Kosmetikum zu applizieren. In gleicher Weise werden vorzugsweise auch die an den Enden der Stiele 16a und 16b befestigten Auftragselemente abgestreift, sobald sie das erste Durchlassteil 8a bzw. das zweite Durchlassteil 8b passieren.It is easy to see that the stems 16a and 16b all around are stripped, as soon as the
Da der Abstreifer 1 an dem Kosmetikbehälter 10 festgesetzt ist, muss das Wiedereinführen des Kosmetikapplikators 14 so erfolgen, dass zunächst die richtige Position des Kosmetikapplikators 14, die zum Einführen geeignet ist, gesucht wird.Since the
Sodann wird der Kosmetikapplikator 14 durch den Abstreifer 1 hindurchgeschoben und in den Kosmetikbehälter 10 eingeführt. Sobald er seine Endposition erreicht hat kann der Deckel 13 wieder aufgeschraubt werden, der das ganze Ensemble zusammenhält. Dadurch, dass der Kosmetikapplikator 14 und der Deckel 13 der Kosmetikeinheit hier als zwei nicht miteinander verbundene Teile ausgeführt sind, muss der Kosmetikapplikator 14 beim Schließen der Kosmetikeinheit nicht zusammen mit dem Deckel gedreht werden. Er kommt daher mit dem unbeweglich im Flaschenhals festgesetzten Abstreifer 1 zurecht.Then, the

Dadurch, dass der zweite Abstreiferteil 18 drehbar an dem feststehenden ersten Abstreiferteil 17 festgelegt ist, wird es möglich, den Kosmetikapplikator 14 mit dem vorzugsweise als Schraubverschluss konzipierten Deckel 13 zu vereinen, so wie man es beispielsweise auch sonst von vielen Mascaraapplikatoren her kennt.Characterized in that the
