Definitions

  • the invention relates to an applicator according to the preamble of the respective main claim.
  • applicators for applying a cosmetic preferably in the form of mascara are, in particular, applicators for applying a cosmetic preferably in the form of mascara.
  • the solution of this task is carried out by a cosmetic applicator with a the application organs in the form of bristles and / or comb teeth bearing core.
  • the core according to the invention is formed by a slotted tube, which is occupied on its outer peripheral surface with bristles and / or comb teeth.
  • the slotted tube has at least one weakening groove extending in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tube, which facilitates the curling of the tube under the influence of forces acting on the tube from the outside.
  • a weakening groove is preferably not understood to mean any depression in the inner peripheral surface of the tube. Deepening that does not bring about a practically relevant weakening is irrelevant.
  • a depression in the sense of the invention is preferably understood to mean a recess which has a sufficient depth to locally weaken the wall of the slotted tube to the extent that the amount of local deformation under a given force is at least 25%, better still at least 40%. increases.
  • a weakening groove running parallel to the longitudinal axis is understood to mean a groove which, except for angular tolerances of +/- 1.5 °, runs parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the applicator or of the slotted core.
  • larger parallelism deviations of +/- 6 ° are permissible, but this is not preferred.
  • the at least one weakening groove according to the invention makes it possible to selectively influence the folding behavior or the tendency of the applicator to curl when passing through the container neck or the wiper.
  • the Weakening groove may even be used to destabilize the slotted tube locally so that the applicator can be deformed elastically within the scope of the intended application, which surprisingly brings a novel, with the subjects broad acceptance finding order behavior with it.
  • the weakening grooves are dimensioned and distributed along the circumference of the slotted tube such that the radius of curvature of the slotted tube is no longer constant after being rolled up, but locally different.
  • areas of different striated areas are found, which increases the variability of the order in a very attractive manner, since the applicator only has to be turned back and forth to apply more mass and to comb less strongly or the other way around.
  • two weakening grooves lie substantially diametrically opposite the tube circumference with respect to the imaginary central longitudinal axis of the tube.
  • the latter is the case when the weakening, based on the circumference of the slotted tube, an angle of 90 ° +/- 15 ° and better maintain an angle of 90 ° +/- 5 °.
  • the weakening grooves are facing each other such that they separate two wing-like pipe sections from the rest of the pipe, one of which is the mirror image of the other and which are otherwise identical.
  • a cosmetic applicator which is equipped with a application organs in the form of bristles and / or comb teeth supporting core, the core by a slotted tube is formed, which is occupied on its outer peripheral surface with bristles and / or comb teeth, wherein along the hollow interior of the slotted tube, a further constituent of the core forming support core is formed along a part of its outer periphery integral in the inner periphery of the slotted tube passes.
  • the slotted tube consists of a first plastic and the support core of a different, second plastic, wherein the first plastic is preferably more compliant than the second plastic.
  • the slotted tube is particularly flexible in the circumferential direction, but at the same time in the direction of its longitudinal axis L is substantially rigid and thereby push very well through narrow scraper or container necks or pull leaves without the risk of undesirable buckling.
  • the first plastic which forms the support core, a soft elastic plastic, a soft elastomer or a rubber-like plastic.
  • the two different plastics are processed or joined by overmolding.
  • Such an overmolding leaves characteristic bodily marks on the resulting part.
  • the first and the second plastic are where they meet at the transition of the inner circumference of the slotted tube in the outer periphery of the support core, at least when viewed under the microscope in a typical overmolding manner welded or glued together, which is due to the fact that the plastic in a molten state on the at least partially solidified, other plastic has hit.
  • the cross section of the support core is usually chosen so that it is substantially smaller than the light section defined by the slotted tube to the outside. In most cases, the cross-section of the support core occupies less than 30% of the cross-sectional area bounded by the slotted tube.
  • a particular embodiment for which protection is claimed, in particular in isolation, independently of other protected embodiments, is characterized by a support core with a particularly large cross-section - the support core fills the cross-section bounded by the slotted tube almost completely, so that the outer peripheral surface of the support core preferably forms an annular gap with the inner peripheral surface of the slotted tube over an angle of more than 120 ° in the circumferential direction, wherein the annular gap in the radial direction preferably along the major part of its course in the circumferential direction a maximum gap height of 1 mm, better only 0.75 mm having.

  • Each of the bristles is preferably so flexible that its tip can be reversibly deflected by a distance LA, which preferably corresponds to at least 4 times, more preferably at least 6 times the maximum bristle diameter, the measured above the fillet, with which the bristle root merges into the core, cf. also Fig. 21
  • the length L a of a bristle is preferably between 0.4 and 1.3 mm.
  • the core 2 of the applicator according to the invention is preferably not made so solid that it does not undergo any visible deformation when it passes the stripper and / or the neck of the bottle.
  • the core in this embodiment is designed as a continuous slotted on its circumference along its entire length, inside hollow tube. It is advantageous if the slot in the circumferential direction about 1/8 to 1/3 better only 1/8 to 1/4 of the circumference of the tube occupies, mentally starting from a corresponding full-tube, which is self-contained.
  • the tube preferably has the cross section of a slotted annular cylinder, as this is the easiest way to ensure a uniform density of the bristle trim.
  • the alternative of providing the tube with the cross-section of a slotted polygon ring, for example a hexagonal or octagonal hollow inside is also within the scope of what the invention claims even though the annular cylindrical tube is preferred.
  • the tube has the cross section of a slotted annular cylinder, as this is the easiest way to ensure a uniform density of the bristle trim. In the vicinity of this comes a cross-section, which has the shape of a slotted polygon ring, such as a slotted, inside hollow octagon.
  • the stocking density changes in its circumferential direction, so that the applicator shows different application properties, depending on the rotational position in which it is introduced to the point to be treated.
  • the circular cross-section of the slotted tube remains the clearly preferred embodiment.
  • the interior of the tube which is preferably open only on one side at the circumference and opens towards the surroundings, generally forms a channel which receives a certain amount of the cosmetic to be applied.
  • the tube is additionally at its distal, d. H. the end face or the coupling portion 5 facing away from the front side open, so that the deformation of the tube in the region of the distal end face is not hindered.
  • the coupling portion 5 is attached only along a part of the circumference of the tube to this, so that the deformation of the tube in the region of the proximal end face is not hindered, at least not substantially.
  • the wall thickness of the entire pipe or intended intended for deformation areas of the tube - which are those portions of the tube that are not directly connected to the coupling portion 5 and therefore projecting from the connected to the coupling portion 5, forming the backbone central body 8 resiliently - Is chosen so that the two legs 3a and 3b, which limit the slot 4 between them, in the direction of the arrows P can shift towards each other, such that the diameter of the core and thus also the claimed by the core cross-sectional area Q decreases ,
  • Under the claimed by a core cross-sectional area Q is understood to mean the A surface that encloses the imaginary rope line of a rope, which one wraps around the core on the outside.
  • the invention provides that the wall thickness and the material of the core are chosen so that the displacement of the legs just described automatically sets under the influence of the forces exerted by the scraper and / or the neck of the reservoir to the core, as soon as the core is properly pulled out by the scraper or the bottleneck or is inserted in the reverse direction in the reservoir.
  • the legs 3a and 3b do not have to deform along their entire length. On the contrary, in most cases they will only deform where they are directly exposed to the compressing forces of the scraper and / or the neck of the bottle.

  • Constant one understands in a broader sense Deviations of the wall thickness of +/- 7.5%, in a narrower sense only tolerances +/- 2% are allowed.
  • the invention is not concerned with such trivial deformations, which occur everywhere as unavoidable small or micro deformations, when one body exerts forces on the other. Rather, the invention is concerned with deformations which have a clearly noticeable effect, ie. H. preferably such deformations which reduce the cross-sectional area Q of the core by at least 10% and better still by at least 20%.
  • the bristles and the core are matched.
  • the core is designed to yield resiliently before the forces generated by the wiper and / or neck become so great that they break the bristles so hard that they are damaged.
  • the applicators according to the invention are usually disposable articles for hygienic reasons. In view of this, it may possibly be sufficient if the bristles do not cause any visible damage during the intended service life.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 show a first embodiment.
  • the slotted tube has a total of three so-called weakening grooves on its inner circumference, cf. esp. Fig. 1 , Each of the weakening grooves preferably extends over the entire length of the inside of the tube, cf. Fig. 2 , The two slit grooves 8 adjacent to the slit 4 of the tube are approximately diametrically opposite, with respect to the imaginary central longitudinal axis of the slotted tube, cf. Fig. 1 , The third weakening groove is preferably at the lowest point of the slotted tube, if one thinks of the slit at the top of the tube. Under a weakening is preferably understood in the circumferential direction max. 3 mm better only max. 2 mm wide groove, which is buried in the surrounding inner surface of the slotted tube.

  • Each of the weakening grooves 8 preferably has a circular arcuate or U-shaped cross-sectional profile.
  • each of the weakening grooves weakens the wall thickness of the slotted tube in the radial direction by at least 30%.
  • the wall region of the slotted tube remaining in the region of the weakening grooves thus becomes a kind of hinge, which considerably facilitates the curling of the tube under the influence of forces acting on the outside of the tube, such as, for example, a scraper.
  • This does not mean that those wall portions of the slotted tube that lie in the circumferential direction next to the weakening grooves, not deform and do not contribute to curling. But it is preferably such that the overwhelming part of this "rolling in" is caused by the weakening grooves.
  • the slotted tube is at least in the region of its proximal, ie the handle, not shown facing end obliquely cut.
  • This oblique gate of the tube causes the curling of the tube when pulling out of the applicator from the reservoir easier to initiate when the slotted tube meets with its slope SR on the bottleneck or scraper therein.
  • FIGS. 5 to 8 show a second embodiment.
  • the first and second embodiments are almost completely identical, so that what is said for the first embodiment also applies to this second embodiment.
  • the second embodiment has a slotted tube, which is also in the region of its distal, d. H. the hand-facing away end not shown is cut obliquely, so front and rear has a slope SR. In this way, reintroducing the applicator into the reservoir through the scraper or bottleneck is a bit easier.
  • the slot-bordering end faces 7 are preferably not occupied with bristles, while the slot-bordering end faces 7 in this second embodiment preferably at least and ideally only have a number of aligned in the direction along the longitudinal axis L in alignment in a bristle.
  • the slotted tube forms left and right next to the slot 4 diametrically opposite weakening two legs.
  • it is such that these two legs approach each other under load, because the weakening 8 forms a kind of hinge in the broadest sense.
  • each of the two legs extending away from said central weakening groove is itself subdivided by at least one further weakening groove.
  • each of the two legs forms a subsection which, under the influence of external z. B. by a bottleneck or scraper applied forces even further shifts inward, d. H. rolling in even more clearly

  • This embodiment has only two weakening grooves 8, which are each executed and act exactly as has been described for the first two embodiments.
  • the weakening grooves 8 are diametrically opposed.
  • the slotted tube of this applicator 1 is configured with a support core 10, which in this embodiment has the shape of a preferably cylindrical rod whose diameter is smaller than the inner diameter of the slotted tube, so that the support core 10 preferably fills a maximum of 35% of the cross-sectional area that is bordered by the slotted tube, so that the intended rolling of the tube is not hindered.
  • the core 2 thus consists of the slotted tube and in addition from the support core.
  • the preferably cylindrical rod which forms the support core 10 merges into the inner circumference of the slotted tube at one point of its outer circumference and becomes one with the slotted tube, but this does not mean, as can be clearly seen from the figures, that the support core is completely absorbed in the slotted tube and, so to speak, only an element contained mentally in the slotted tube.
  • the support core 10 preferably extends at least over the majority of the length of the slotted tube along its longitudinal axis L. The majority of the surface of the support core is independent of and further inboard than the inner surface of the slotted tube.
