Definitions
- the present invention relates to an applicator and a device for applying a cosmetic product to human keratin materials, in particular the skin or the nails.
- Cosmetic product means any product as defined in Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on cosmetic products.
- This cosmetic product may be, for example, a nail polish, a foundation, or a lip gloss.
- European patent EP 0 651 955 discloses a nail polish applicator comprising a shaft and bristles fixed in a housing of the shaft, this housing being of oblong cross-section.
- a nail varnish applicator is also known whose stem comprises a plurality of longitudinal grooves distributed in a substantially uniform manner over its entire periphery.
- the longitudinal grooves allow the product deposited along the rod to flow preferentially to the brush.
- EP 1 407 685 discloses a nail varnish applicator whose stem comprises one or two longitudinal grooves on its periphery.
- a disadvantage of the longitudinal grooves is to generate a too fast flow of the product to the brush may cause smudging on application.
- the amount of product stored in the groove is sometimes insufficient for the application of a larger amount of product without reloading the brush in the container.
- the present invention therefore aims to provide an improved device for applying a cosmetic product to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the invention proposes an applicator for applying a product to the nails or to the skin, comprising a gripping portion, a rod extending from the gripping portion along a longitudinal axis XX, and an organ of FIG. application fixed in a housing of the free end of the rod.
- the rod has, moving along the axis X-X, a succession of non-circular cross sections and angularly offset from each other about said axis X-X so as to form a helical pattern.
- the invention advantageously makes it possible to obtain a slower flow of a larger quantity of product.
- the sections of the succession of non-circular cross sections may have a concavity so as to form a helical groove around the rod.
- the sections of the succession of non-circular cross-sections may include an outgrowth so as to form a helical rib around the stem.
- the sections of the succession of non-circular cross sections may be substantially circular outside the portion comprising said protrusion or said concavity.
- the groove or rib may have a slope of between 10 ° and 70 °, and in particular greater than or equal to 45 ° with respect to an axis perpendicular to the X-X axis.
- the applicator member may be a tuft of hair fixed in the housing.
- the length of the portion of the bristles that extends out of the housing can then be between 5 and 20 mm.
- the applicator member may be a tip made of thermoplastic material.
- the succession of non-circular cross-sections can extend over more than half the height of the stem.
- the succession of non-circular cross-sections may extend to the free end of the rod.
- the largest dimension of the opening of the housing measured perpendicular to the axis X-X, may be less than or equal to 5 mm, or even less than or equal to 3 mm.
- the largest transverse dimension of a section of the rod may be less than or equal to 5 mm.
- the rod can be made in one piece by molding thermoplastic material with the gripping member.
- the invention also relates to a device for packaging and applying a cosmetic product comprising a container containing the product to be applied, and an applicator as defined above.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view, in axial section, of a device for applying a product to the nails
- FIG. 2 partially represents the applicator of the device of FIG.
- FIG. 3 represents in isolation, in axial section, the rod of the applicator of FIG.
- FIG. 4 represents a detail of the housing receiving the bristles of the brush
- FIG. 5 is a cross-section along V-V of FIG. 4;
- FIG. 6 represents, in section along V-V, an alternative embodiment of the rod of FIG. 4;
- FIG. 7 represents a second embodiment of the rod of the applicator of the invention.
- FIG. 8 is a cross-section along VIII-VIII of FIG. 7;
- FIG. 9 represents, in section along VIII-VIII, an alternative embodiment of the rod of FIG. 7;
- FIG. 10 represents a third embodiment of the rod of the applicator of the invention,
- Figure 1 1 is a cross section along XI-XI of Figure 10,
- FIG. 12 represents, in section along XI-XI, an alternative embodiment of the rod of FIG. 10,
- FIGS. 13 and 14 illustrate two configurations of the housing, corresponding to different distributions of the hairs outside the rod
- FIG. 15 represents, in isolation, an end portion of the bristles of the brush.
- FIG. 16 is a partial longitudinal section of the rod and a plug made in one piece with it.
- FIG. 1 shows a device 1 for the application of a cosmetic product to the nails, for example a nail varnish V.
- This device comprises a receptacle 2 containing the varnish V and an applicator 3.
- the applicator comprises a rod 4 of plastic extending along a longitudinal axis XX, provided at one end with an applicator member formed by a brush 5 and at the other end with a gripping member 10 also constituting a closure cap of the container 2.
- applicator member may also be suitable, for example but not limited to, the applicator member may be a tip made of thermoplastic material or foam.
- the applicator member may be a tip made of thermoplastic material or foam.
- These other types of applicator member can be adapted for different cosmetic products such as fluid foundation or a lip gloss.
- the applicator member may also be flocked.
- the container 2 has an opening defined by a neck of the container 2.
- the container 2 has no means of wringing the applicator member when the latter is removed from the container 2.
- the container may comprise a ball 6, for example metal, to homogenize the V varnish before application, shaking the device 1.
- the container may be transparent or translucent. For this purpose it can be made of glass.
- the rod 4 has at its upper end a skirt 8 enabling it to be fastened in the closure cap 10.
- the rod may be made of a single piece by molding plastic material with the closing cap of the container.
- the closure cap 10 is configured to screw or snap onto the neck 1 1 of the container 2.
- the rod 4 comprises under the flange 12 a conical portion 13 may contribute to sealing the closure of the container 2 when the applicator 3 is in place on the latter.
- the seal could be obtained by cooperation of surfaces of the plug 10 and the neck 1 1 of the container 2.
- the rod extends substantially rectilinear along the axis XX from its conical portion 13 to its free end 17.
- the largest transverse dimension of the portion of the rod immersed in the product contained in the container when the applicator is in place on it can then be less than or equal to 5 mm.
- the rod 4 also comprises a lower end portion 14 which is provided with a housing 15 for fixing the applicator member.
- the housing 15 receives a portion of the brush bristles 5 which are fixed for example by stapling, gluing, melting or overmolding.
- the opening of the housing 15 is secant with the longitudinal axis X-X of the rod 4.
- the opening is perpendicular to this longitudinal axis X-X.
- the housing 15 may have any kind of cross section, for example circular or polygonal.
- the housing 15 has an opening of rectangular or oblong cross-section, of elongate shape along an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis XX of the rod 4, which makes it possible to obtain a substantially homogeneous distribution of the bristles.
- the housing 15 may have, as can be seen in Figure 4, a cross section which decreases towards the bottom 19 of the housing. This reduction can be made according to the desired divergence for the hair.
- the shape given to the housing 15 it is possible to obtain a more or less wide bundle of bristles, as illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14. It can be seen in FIG.
- the housing 15 can be made with in its bottom a recess 15a in which the bristles are fixed on the rod. This recess may lead to a portion 15b flaring towards the opening of the housing 15, allowing the bristles to move apart from each other to give the brush an enlarged shape and that the bristles of the brush 5 deviate when the brush is applied to the nail.
- the housing 15 can thus be made in such a way that the maximum transverse dimension 12 of the brush, measured perpendicularly to the axis XX, is greater than the transverse dimension 11 of the rod of the level of the housing 15, as can be seen in FIG. 14.
- the housing may be arranged such that the bristles extend outside the housing over a width, measured perpendicular to the X-X axis, greater than the width of the rod at the housing. This gives a relatively wide brush.
- the length of the portion of the bristles extending out of the housing 15 of the shank is between 5 and 20 mm, for example.
- the free ends of the bristles of the brush 5 may be, for example, as seen in Figure 15, along a substantially circular curve C.
- the free ends of the bristles can substantially describe an arc of a circle, of radius of curvature of between 2 and 15 mm for example, in particular between 4 and 10 mm.
- the ends free hair could be located substantially along a line, for example.
- the widest opening width of the housing measured perpendicular to the X-X axis, may be less than or equal to 2 mm.
- the free end 17 of the rod 4 may comprise a chamfer 20, as can be seen in FIG. 4.
- the rod 4 comprises, in the example illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6, over a major part of its length up to its distal end 17, a groove 18.
- This groove 18 extends along and around the rod 4 to form a helical spiral.
- the rod 4 while moving along the axis XX, has a succession of non-circular and angularly offset cross-sections around said axis XX so as to form a pattern in the form of a groove 18 helical. More specifically, the rod 4 has a succession of sections whose outer contour comprises a convex circular portion 16b joining the edges of a concavity 16a defining the groove 18.
- the concavity may have a polygonal profile as in Figure 5, or simply a concave arc as in Figure 6.
- This groove 18 can extend over more than half the height of the rod 4. Said groove 18 preferably extends from the distal end 17 of the rod 4, in order to open onto the applicator member .
- the groove has a slope of between 10 ° and 70 ° with respect to a Y-Y axis perpendicular to the X-X axis.
- the slope is greater than or equal to 45 ° with respect to a Y-Y axis perpendicular to the X-X axis.
- the slope is in particular adapted according to the viscosity of the product in order to obtain a flow rate adapted to the desired use.
- the rod may also have several grooves that can intersect or not.
- the rod comprises a rib 28 extending along and around the rod so as to form a helical rib.
- the rod presents, as it moves along the axis XX, a succession of non-circular and offset cross-sections. angularly to each other about said axis XX so as to form a pattern in the form of a helical rib 28.
- the rod 4 has a succession of sections whose outer contour comprises a convex circular portion 26b joining the edges of the a convex outgrowth 26a.
- the protrusion may have a polygonal profile as in Figure 8 or simply concave arc as in Figure 9.
- This rib 28 may extend over more than half the height of the rod 4. Said rib preferably extends from the distal end 17 of the rod 4.
- the rib 28 has a slope of between 10 ° and 70 ° relative to a Y-Y axis perpendicular to the X-X axis.
- the slope is greater than or equal to 45 ° with respect to a Y-Y axis perpendicular to the X-X axis
- the rod comprises a flattened transverse section, and more particularly a succession of flattened transverse sections, and said rod 4 comprises a twisted portion 38 around the longitudinal axis X-X.
- the rod has, moving along the axis X-X, a succession of flattened cross sections, therefore non-circular, and angularly offset from each other about said axis X-X so as to form a helical pattern.
- the rod 4 has a succession of non-circular sections for example rectangular or oblong as in Figure 1 1 or flattened and having an outgrowth or concavity as in Figure 12.
- the non-circular cross sections of the succession may be identical or vary gradually.
- the twisted portion 38 may extend over more than half the height of the rod 4 and extend or not to the distal end 17 of the rod 4.
- the angular offset forming the spin can be between a quarter turn and 6 turns.
- the spin can extend over a length of between 10 mm and 70 mm.
- the twisted portion 38 stops at the bottom 19 of the housing 15 to allow a non-twisted housing.
- the device 1 is used in the following manner.
- the product When the applicator 3 is removed from the container 2, the product is present on the rod 4 and flows by gravity towards the brush 5.
- the product thickness is greater at the grooves 18, which can retain more of product.
- the product flows in the helical pattern so more slowly than if it flowed axially along the rod. This makes it easier and more precise to apply the product without having to reload the brush by placing it back in the container.
- the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples.
- the characteristics of the various examples may especially be combined within non-illustrated variants.
- a rod may have both a groove and a rib.
