Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a swab used for ear cleaning and cosmetics.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cotton swabs having cotton swabs at one end and both ends are often used for ear cleaning and makeup, and earwax or the like is entangled with cotton swabs provided at the ends of the cotton swabs. It was effective if removed or used as a pre-cosmetic.

[0003]

However, since the cotton body portion of the cotton swab merely has a cotton wound around the end of the shaft, earwax or the like entangled with the fibers of the cotton body portion is being removed. It was difficult to remove the earwax, etc., because the earwax, etc. was pushed into the back while the cottonwax was being dropped, and the cottonwax was scraping out the earwax.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by including an adhesive in a cotton body portion to impart adhesiveness.

[0005]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of a cotton swab according to the present invention, wherein 1 is a wooden shaft made of paper or synthetic resin, and a spindle-shaped cotton body 2 is attached to one end of the shaft 1. The cotton body portion 2 is penetrated with an adhesive. As the pressure-sensitive adhesive, an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, a urethane-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, a rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, or the like is used, and this pressure-sensitive adhesive is applied to the surface of the cotton body 2 or the cotton body 2 is immersed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive. An adhesive is attached to the cotton fibers on the surface of the cotton body portion 2.
At the other end of the shaft 1, a cotton 3 wrapped with a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft 1 is attached, and a number of annular grooves 4 are arranged at equal intervals around the outer periphery of the cotton 3. Is formed. The annular groove 4 is formed by reducing the diameter of the cotton 3 by pressing the outer circumferential circle at the equally-spaced portion in the axial direction of the cotton 3, and the fiber of the reduced diameter portion is strongly pushed in and does not rise. I am doing it.

FIG. 2 is a front view of a cotton swab showing the second embodiment. A cotton 5 is wound around one end of a shaft 1 around which a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft 1 is wound. The cotton 5 is penetrated with an adhesive. As in the first embodiment, the other end of the shaft 1 is provided with a cotton 6 wrapped with a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft 1, and a large number of cotton 6 are wrapped around the cotton 6. Are formed at regular intervals.

FIG. 3 is a front view of a cotton swab showing a third embodiment. A cotton 5 wrapped around one end of the shaft 1 with a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft 1 is attached. ing. A spindle-shaped cotton body 2 is attached to the other end of the shaft 1, and an adhesive is penetrated into one of the cotton 5 and the cotton body 2.

FIG. 4 is a front view of a cotton swab showing a fourth embodiment, wherein a cotton 5 wrapped with a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft 1 is attached to both ends of the shaft 1. , The cotton 5,
5 has penetrated the adhesive.

When using a cotton swab, by inserting it into an ear hole and moving it back and forth and rotating, the raised earwax and the like are accumulated in the annular groove 4 and removed, or the cotton body portion 2 or the cotton By inserting 5 into the ear hole and moving it back and forth and rotating, it is effective when the ear hole has a lot of mucus secretion because the absorption of moisture etc. does not penetrate the adhesive,
When the ear hole is particularly dry, the earwax can be effectively removed by the adhesive penetrating the cotton body 2 or the cotton 5 on one side. In addition, it is effective to alternate both of them.

[0010]

In short, according to the present invention, a spindle-shaped cotton body 2 is attached to one end of a shaft 1 and an adhesive is penetrated into the cotton body 2, and the shaft 2 is attached to the other end of the shaft 1. A cotton 3 wrapped with a substantially cylindrical cotton fiber slightly larger than the diameter of 1 is mounted, and a large number of annular grooves 4 are formed at equal intervals on the outer periphery of the cotton 3, so that earwax and the like can be easily removed with an adhesive. Therefore, there is no danger that earwax or the like will be dropped while being taken out or pushed into the back as in the related art. In addition, since the cotton 3 has an adhesive property, its feel is soft, and even if the cotton 3 is inserted into an ear hole or the like, it can be used safely without feeling pain, and the range of use of the cotton swab can be expanded. And its practical effects are enormous.
