Definitions

  • the present invention relates to applicators for applying a cosmetic, make-up or care product to the eyelashes and/or the eyebrows.
  • the invention relates more particularly to applicators comprising an applicator member produced by molding material, in particular thermoplastic, arranged at the end of a rod connected at the other end to a gripping member which can also constitute a closing member. a container containing the product to be applied.
  • Requests FR 2 968 519 And FR 2 983 689 disclose applicators comprising a core and spikes carried by the core.
  • the invention relates to an applicator according to claim 1. Preferred features of the invention are set out in the dependent claims.
  • the cross section of the spikes is preferably hexagonal, and more preferably regular hexagonal.
  • the spikes can advantageously have a hexagonal cross-section over more than half their height, better still over substantially their entire height.
  • the pimples may be truncated at their top.
  • spikes of polygonal cross-section oriented so as to have sides substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the core has the advantage of offering a larger contact surface with the eyelashes, because the eyelashes engaged between the barbs in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the core can contact these sides which are substantially parallel to them.
  • the barbs Preferably, the barbs have opposite lateral edges which are located in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the core. These side ridges tend to facilitate lash engagement between the spikes and can improve the combing action exerted by the applicator member on the eyelashes.
  • the spikes are distributed over the core according to rows of spikes extending in the longitudinal direction of the core.
  • the pins can be arranged in groups of three alignments in the longitudinal direction, with one group per face of the core.
  • Such an applicator member has a good ability to comb the eyelashes and to separate them using the alignment groups of spikes.
  • the spaces formed between the crowns of spikes can contain product reserves, useful for loading the eyelashes.
  • the orientation of the pins then makes it possible to separate them well.
  • sides oriented substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the core it should be understood that the sides form an angle of 90° ⁇ 10° with the longitudinal axis of the core.
  • each group of rows of pins has three rows of pins, as mentioned above.
  • Each group of rows of pins preferably comprises two rows of pins with pins of the same rows having the same height, at least for some of the pins of these rows.
  • the rank of a spike is counted from the first spike, the closest, within an alignment of spikes, to the distal end of the applicator member.
  • At least one group of rows of pins can comprise two rows of identical pins.
  • the alignments of pins can be images of each other by a rotation around the longitudinal axis of the core.
  • Each row of pins can have pins of the same height, for a range of rank values within this row.
  • the h max /h min ratio between the highest and the shortest pin of the same rank of a different row can be between 1 and 1.5, better still 1 and 1.35.
  • the envelope surface defined by the free ends of the spikes may have, over at least a portion of the length of the applicator member, various shapes, in particular conical, cylindrical or cylindroconical, of circular section or not, ogival, ovoid, in the shape of a peanut, a fish, a tendril, ...
  • the core can be hollow or solid.
  • the spikes extend radially.
  • the number of pins carried by the core can be greater than or equal to 300, with for example between 10 and 30 pins per row of pins, better still between 15 and 20 pins.
  • the difference between the axes of the pins, measured within the same alignment, can be between 1.3 and 1.6 mm, better still between 1.4 and 1.5 mm.
  • the gap between two successive crowns, measured between the planes containing the axes of the pins, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the core, can be between 0.6 and 0.9 mm, better still between 0.7 and 0, 8mm.
  • the angular difference ⁇ between two adjacent groups of rows of pins can be between 25° and 35°, and the angular difference ⁇ between two rows of pins within a group of rows of pins can be between 12.5 and 17.5°.
  • the angular difference is measured between the radial planes which contain the vertices of the pins of the alignments concerned. If the tops of the pins of the same alignment are non-coplanar, for example because arranged slightly staggered, the plane which is taken as a reference to measure the angular difference is a longitudinal median plane for this alignment.
  • the packaging and application device 1 shown in figure 1 , comprises a container 2 containing a product P to be applied to the eyelashes and/or the eyebrows and an applicator 3 which can be removably attached to the container 2.
  • the applicator 3 comprises a rod 8 with a longitudinal axis Y, provided at one end with an application member 10, which will be described in detail below, and at the other end with a gripping member 9 constituting also a cap for sealing the container 2.
  • the latter comprises a body 7 provided on the top with a threaded neck 5, on which the gripping member 9 can be screwed to close the container 2 in a sealed manner.
  • the fixing of the applicator 3 on the container 2 can be done otherwise.
  • the neck 5 can accommodate, as shown, a wiping member 6 which is for example attached to the neck 5.
  • This wiping member 6 comprises for example a lip defining a wiper orifice with a diameter adapted to that of the rod 8.
  • the wiper member 6 can be of any type, attached to the container 2 or molded therewith. Wiping member 6 can still be adjustable.
  • the neck 5 of the container 2 can be attached, as a variant.
  • the rod 8 has a rectilinear longitudinal axis Y, but this does not depart from the scope of the present invention when the rod 8 is not rectilinear.
  • the rod 8 may comprise, as shown, an annular constriction 20 which is positioned opposite the lip of the wiping member 6 when the applicator 3 is fixed on the container 2.
  • the product P is intended for application to the eyelashes and/or the eyebrows. It may include iron oxide, among other pigments, and an aqueous or organic solvent, depending on the formulations.
  • the applicator member 10 has been shown in isolation figures 2 to 9 .
  • This comprises a core 11 with a longitudinal axis X, carrying application elements 12 constituted by spikes.
  • the core 11 is extended by a tip 13 which comes in the extension of the rod 8.
  • the core 11 is hollow, and the stem 8 may comprise an end pin which is engaged in the core 11 as far as its distal end. This makes it possible to stiffen the core, in particular when the applicator member 10 is made of a particularly flexible material.
  • the length L of the applicator member 10 is for example between 30 and 35 mm.
  • the outer diameter D of the core 11 is for example between 2.5 and 3 mm, for an inner diameter d of for example between 1.4 and 1.6 mm.
  • the pins 12 are of hexagonal cross-section, with opposite sides 12a oriented substantially perpendicular to the axis X, as can be seen in particular on the Figure 3A .
  • the cross section of the pimple is a section in a plane perpendicular to the elongation axis of this pimple.
  • the sides 12a can each be contained in a plane perpendicular to the axis X.
  • the section is regular hexagonal, and each pin 12 has side edges 12b located in a median plane M for tooth 12, perpendicular to axis X.
  • an eyelash C When an eyelash C is engaged between the pins 12, as illustrated, it can contact a side 12a over substantially the entire length of this side, and the contact surface between the tooth and the eyelash is thus relatively large, which can improve the deposition and smoothing action of the product on the surface of the eyelash. Due to the arrangement of the ridges 12b, the sides 12c adjacent to the ridges 12b can deviate the eyelashes towards the spaces between the spikes 12, which facilitates the penetration of the eyelashes between the spikes 12.
  • the pins 12 can be, as illustrated in particular in figure 5 And 11 , organized according to alignments of pins in the longitudinal direction, grouped in groups 30 of three, as visible in the figure 5 .
  • Each group 30 comprises two alignments of pins 31 of a first type A and an alignment of pins 32 of a second type B.
  • the angular difference ⁇ between two alignments of pins within a group 30, measured between the planes containing the axes of the pins, oriented radially, is less than the angular difference ⁇ between two adjacent groups 30, measured between the planes containing the axes of the pins of the alignments closest to each other, belonging to these two groups.
  • the height of the pin can vary.
  • the difference e between the axes of the pins, within an alignment can be between 1.3 and 1.6 mm, being for example approximately 1.5 mm.
  • the spikes 12 form, when the applicator member 10 is observed from the side as on the figures 6 and 7 , crowns 40 and 41 extending in the circumferential direction around the longitudinal axis X of the core 11.
  • the number of pins per crown takes higher values for crowns 40, for example 12 pins, which alternate with lower values, for example 6 pins, for crowns 41.
  • Core 11 may have flat longitudinal faces.
  • the applicator member is advantageously made of a thermoplastic material, in particular an elastomer, for example SEBS, a silicone, latex, butyl, EPDM, a nitrile, a thermoplastic elastomer, a polyester or polyamide elastomer , polyethylene or vinyl, a polyolefin such as PE or PP, PVC, EVA, PS, PET, POM, PA or PMMA.
  • a thermoplastic material in particular an elastomer, for example SEBS, a silicone, latex, butyl, EPDM, a nitrile, a thermoplastic elastomer, a polyester or polyamide elastomer , polyethylene or vinyl, a polyolefin such as PE or PP, PVC, EVA, PS, PET, POM, PA or PMMA.
  • a polyolefin such as PE or PP, PVC, EVA, PS, PET, POM, PA or PMMA.
  • the spikes 12 may comprise a material with bacteriostatic and/or sliding and/or magnetic properties.
  • the applicator 3 can be subjected to vibrations during use, and/or be heated, that is to say include a heating element, and/or be rotatable. It is also possible for the applicator member 10 to be vibrating and heating or only vibrating or only heating or only rotating. In the case where the applicator is rotatable, the gripping member 9 can house an electric motor to drive the rod in rotation.
  • the pins 12 can be arranged according to other pin arrangements than those illustrated in the figures.
  • the applicator member 10 may comprise only studs of hexagonal cross-section or, as a variant, comprise both studs of hexagonal cross-section and studs of cross-section other than hexagonal, for example non-polygonal, in particular circular .
  • the polygonal section of the pins 12 may be irregular.
  • the sides 12a are larger than the other sides, which makes it possible to increase the contact surface with the eyelashes.
