Description

【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、主に婦女子が使用するまつ毛カール器であって、下まつ毛用として使用できると共に上まつ毛にも使用できるものに関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着され、双方の鋏片はまつ毛を挟圧するための一対の押圧部を有し、それぞれの押圧部に挟圧部が設けられ、一方の鋏片のガイド部に沿って他方の押圧部が摺動することにより挟圧と挟圧解除をなし、ガイド部はほぼ直線状であるまつ毛カール器は従来から存在している（例えば、特許文献１。）。また、鋏片が比較的薄く形成されているまつ毛カール器も従来から存在している（例えば、特許文献２。）。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
前述した特許文献１のまつ毛カール器は、二股状杆部が途中で屈曲しているが屈曲角度が比較的小さい構成である。したがって、弾性受承座の上面の向きと支持杆の長さ方向がほぼ一致している。特許文献１のまつ毛カール器も含めて従来のまつ毛カール器は上まつ毛をカールするためのものであるから、特許文献１の図６に示されているような状態で上まつ毛をカールするのである。
【０００５】
従来、下まつ毛用のまつ毛カール器はなかったので、下まつ毛をカールしようとするときは特許文献１の図６の状態からまつ毛カール器を上下反転して指掛部が上に来るようにして使用していた。しかし、そのようにして使用するときはまつ毛カール器を持つ手を頭付近まで上げなければならないから、すぐに手が疲れる結果となっていた。また、手を上げると脇が大きく開くので手が不安定となり、まつ毛をカールする作業を円滑に行なうことが困難であった。このことは、特許文献２のまつ毛カール器でも同じことである。そこで本発明は、下まつ毛のほかに上まつ毛もカールすることができ、上下いずれのまつ毛をカールするときも手の位置はほぼ同じ高さであって、手を頭付近まで上げる必要がなく、すぐに疲れることのない安定した作業ができるまつ毛カール器を提供することを目的とする。
【０００６】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の請求項１は、一方の鋏片のガイド部に沿って他方の押圧部が摺動することにより挟圧と挟圧解除をなし、一方の鋏片の長さ方向に対してガイド部はほぼ直角をなしている構成である。請求項２は、一方の押圧部は板状に形成され該押圧部の挟圧部は条線状をなしており、他方の押圧部はゴム等の弾性体で形成され該押圧部の挟圧部はゴム等の弾性体の突出表面であるという要素が請求項１に限定的に付加された構成である。請求項３は、一方の鋏片であって支軸から前方に延びる部分が側方から見てほぼ直線状をなし、前記ガイド部との境で屈曲しているという要素が請求項１又は請求項２に限定的に付加された構成である。請求項４は、基台部はリンク杆から力を受けて摺動し、該リンク杆は前記一方の鋏片の屈曲方向と同じ方向に曲がっており、前記基台部との境付近のリンク杆の付け根部分はガイド部とほぼ同じ方向に延びているという要素が上記各請求項に限定的に付加された構成である。
【０００７】
請求項５は、一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着され、各鋏片は比較的薄く形成され、まつ毛カール器を側方から見て各操作部はほぼ直線状に形成されており、双方の鋏片はまつ毛を挟圧するための一対の押圧部を有し、それぞれの押圧部に挟圧部が設けられ、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも一方の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなす構成である。
【０００８】
請求項６は、一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着され、双方の鋏片はまつ毛を挟圧するための一対の押圧部を有し、それぞれの押圧部に挟圧部が設けられており、一方の鋏片であって支軸よりも前方部分は途中で屈曲し、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも１つの鋏片の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなし、且つ挟圧位置は、操作部の延長線上又はその付近に存在する構成である。
【０００９】
請求項７は、挟圧部同士を開くように付勢する弾性部材が両鋏片の間に設けられており、他方の鋏片の操作部を操作部本体に対しそれらの支点部及びガイド部により移動可能に支持し、他方の操作部が弾性部材に抗して力点部により押さえることができる使用状態と、両鋏片を畳むことができる不使用状態とを取り得るようにした要素が請求項５又は請求項６に限定的に付加された構成である。請求項８は、さらに、双方の鋏片の支持部が同じ方向に曲がっている要素が限定的に付加された構成である。
【００１０】
請求項９は、一方の鋏片の横幅が他方の鋏片の横幅よりも大きくなるように形成され、且つ一方の鋏片は側板部を有し、他方の鋏片が前記側板部の間にほぼ納まるように畳むことができるという要素が請求項７又は請求項８に限定的に付加された構成であり、請求項１０は、一方の押圧部はゴム等の弾性体で形成され該押圧部の挟圧部はゴム等の弾性体の突出表面であり、他方の押圧部の挟圧部は条線状をなしているという構成である。
【００１１】
【発明の効果】
請求項１は、一方の鋏片のガイド部に沿って他方の押圧部が摺動することにより挟圧と挟圧解除をなし、一方の鋏片の長さ方向に対してガイド部はほぼ直角をなしている構成である。このことは、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と一方の鋏片の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなすということである。したがって、まつ毛を挟圧したときにガイド部で構成される面が顔の表面に沿い、操作部は顔の表面に対して大きく傾斜することがなく直角あるいはそれに近い角度をもって顔に当ることになる。これにより、まつ毛カール器を反転して上下いずれのまつ毛をカールするときにもまつ毛カール器を持つ手の高さはほぼ同じで頭付近の高い位置に来ることがないから、使用中に手が疲れにくい。また、手が高い位置に来ないので脇が大きく開くことがなく手が安定し、カール作業を円滑に行なうことができる。
【００１２】
請求項２は、一方の押圧部は板状に形成され該押圧部の挟圧部は条線状をなしており、他方の押圧部はゴム等の弾性体で形成され該押圧部の挟圧部はゴム等の弾性体の突出表面であるから、挟圧時にゴム等の弾性体が圧縮することによりまつ毛を確実にカールすることができる。請求項３は、一方の鋏片であって支軸から前方に延びる部分が側方から見てほぼ直線状をなし、ガイド部との境で屈曲している。したがって、その前方に延びる部分に対してガイド部をほぼ直角に曲げることによって、鋏片の長さ方向に対してガイド部がほぼ直角をなすので加工が簡単である。請求項４は、基台部はリンク杆から力を受けて摺動し、該リンク杆は前記一方の鋏片の屈曲方向と同じ方向に曲がっており、基台部との境付近のリンク杆の付け根部分はガイド部とほぼ同じ方向に延びている。したがって、基台部を摺動させる力がガイドに沿うように、すなわち摺動方向にはたらくので基台部の摺動が滑らかで操作が楽である。
【００１３】
請求項５は、一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着され、各鋏片は比較的薄く形成され、まつ毛カール器を側方から見て各操作部はほぼ直線状に形成されており、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも一方の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなしている。したがって、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも一方の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなしているということは、鋏片が比較的薄く形成されていること、及び各操作部がほぼ直線状に形成されていることと相俟って、使用時における操作部は顔の表面に対して大きく傾斜することがなく直角あるいはそれに近い角度をもって顔に当ることになる。これにより、まつ毛カール器を反転して上下いずれのまつ毛をカールするときにもまつ毛カール器を持つ手の高さはほぼ同じで頭付近の高い位置に来ることがないから、使用中に手が疲れにくい。また、手が高い位置に来ないので脇が大きく開くことがなく手が安定し、カール作業を円滑に行なうことができる。
【００１４】
請求項６は、一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着され、一方の鋏片であって支軸よりも前方部分は途中で屈曲し、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも１つの鋏片の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなし、且つ挟圧位置は、操作部の延長線上又はその付近に存在する構成である。したがって、挟圧時における挟圧力の方向と、少なくとも１つの鋏片の操作部の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなしているので、使用時における操作部は操作部は顔の表面に対して大きく傾斜することがなく直角あるいはそれに近い角度をもって顔に当ることになる。そして、挟圧位置は、操作部の延長線上又はその付近に存在するので、まつ毛カール器を反転して上下いずれのまつ毛をカールするときにもまつ毛カール器を持つ手の高さはほぼ同じで頭付近の高い位置に来ることがないから、使用中に手が疲れにくい。また、手が高い位置に来ないので脇が大きく開くことがなく手が安定し、カール作業を円滑に行なうことができる。
【００１５】
請求項７は、挟圧部同士が開くように付勢する弾性部材が両鋏片の間に設けられている。したがって、通常は操作部が開くように弾性力が働いているので、指掛環を設けてそこに指を差し入れて操作部を開く必要がなく、指掛環を設けないときはまつ毛カール器を薄く形成することができる。あるいは、指掛環を折り畳み可能に設けたときも同様に薄く形成することができる。また、他方の鋏片の操作部を操作部本体に対しそれらの支点部及びガイド部により移動可能に支持し、他方の操作部が弾性部材に抗して力点部により押さえることができる使用状態と、両鋏片を畳むことができる不使用状態とを取り得るようにした。したがって、不使用時には操作部を畳んだ状態にしておくことにより、全体が薄くなり携帯に便利である。
【００１６】
請求項８は、双方の鋏片の支持部が同じ方向に曲がっている構成である。一対の鋏片が支軸を中心に回動可能に軸着されたものは、両鋏片をほぼ真っ直ぐに形成すると、挟圧部を対向させるために鋏片の先端を内側に屈曲させて押圧部を形成する必要がある。そうすると、鋏片の屈曲させた部分が内側に突出した分だけ両挟圧部の間隔が狭くなるので、その間隔を十分に広くするためには両鋏片の開く角度を大きくしなければならない。そのために、使用時に両操作部が大きな角度で開くので操作部を指で操作する作業が不安定になるのである。したがって、一般的には少なくとも一方の支持部を上下いずれかに屈曲させることにより、両挟圧部の間隔が狭くならないようにしている。そして、一方の支持部を屈曲させた場合に、他方の支持部を真っ直ぐなままにした場合は、両鋏片を畳んだときに屈曲した部分に他方の真っ直ぐな支持部が伸びる。この結果、双方の支持部が重ならないからその部分の側部面積が大きくなってコンパクトにならず、やや厚手のものになってしまうのである。このことは、双方の支持部をそれぞれ反対方向に屈曲させたときに顕著である。そこで、請求項８では、双方の支持部が同じ方向に曲がっている構成であるから、両鋏片を畳んだときに双方の支持部が重なり、薄手のまつ毛カール器を得ることができる。
【００１７】
請求項９は、一方の鋏片の横幅が他方の鋏片の横幅よりも大きくなるように形成され、且つ一方の鋏片は側板部を有し、他方の鋏片が前記側板部の間にほぼ納まるように畳むことができる構成である。したがって、他方の鋏片の側部は側板部の間にほぼ納まるので露出せず、畳んだまつ毛カール器を手に持ったときに側板部のみが手に触れるので感触が良いのである。
【００１８】
請求項１０は、一方の押圧部はゴム等の弾性体で形成され該押圧部の挟圧部はゴム等の弾性体の突出表面であり、他方の押圧部の挟圧部は条線状をなしている構成である。したがって、条線状の挟圧部が挟圧位置においてゴムを圧縮しながらまつ毛を挟圧するので、まつ毛を確実にカールすることができる。
【００１９】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に本発明の実施の形態を図面に従って説明する。図１は金属線を主体に構成された鋏片１，２が支軸３により回動可能に軸着され、操作部４，５に設けられた指掛環６，７に指を挿入して操作部４，５を開閉するものである。
【００２０】
一方の操作部４はほぼ直線状に形成され、前方に二股状の支持部８，８が一体に連なっており、図２に示すようにまつ毛カール器を側方から見て支持部８もほぼ直線状に形成されている。その支持部８の先端は下方にほぼ直角に屈曲し、その先に一対のガイド部９，９が延びている。ガイド部９，９の先端には両ガイド部９，９をつなぐ板状の押圧部１０が一体に設けられている。押圧部１０はやや後方に湾曲し、上端縁が条線状の挟圧部１１として作用する。このような構成によって、まつ毛の挟圧時の挟圧力の方向と鋏片１の長さ方向とがほぼ直角をなす。
【００２１】
他方の操作部５の前方には短い支持部１２が一体に連なっており、この支持部１２に二股状のリンク杆１３，１３が回動可能に連結されている。リンク杆１３，１３の先端に金属製の基台部１４が一体的に設けられ、基台部１４の両側部に設けられた挿通孔に前述したガイド部９，９が挿通されており、基台部１４はガイド部９，９に沿って摺動することができる。基台部１４にゴム製の押圧部１５が嵌着されており、この押圧部１５の突出表面が挟圧部１６として作用する。
【００２２】
図２に示すように、リンク杆１３は支持部８の屈曲方向と同じ方向に曲がっている。そして、基台部１４との境付近のリンク杆の付け根部分１７はほぼ直線状であってガイド部９とほぼ同じ方向に延在している。したがって、基台部１４を摺動させるときにリンク杆の付け根部分１７が基台部に対してその摺動方向に力を与えるから、基台部１４の摺動が円滑である。
【００２３】
次に、上述したまつ毛カール器の使用方法について説明する。図２は、鋏片１，２が閉じた状態であって、使用時にはまず操作部４，５を指で操作することによって図１に示すように鋏片１，２を開く。図１及び図２は、条線状の挟圧部１１が下方に位置し、ゴム製の挟圧部１６がその上方に位置しており、この位置関係は下まつ毛をカールするための状態を示している。この状態で図３に示すように下まつ毛を両挟圧部１１，１６の間に挿通し、操作部４，５を指で閉じてまつ毛を挟圧する。このとき、まつ毛カール器をほぼ水平にした状態で作業を行なうことができるから、腕を大きく上に挙げる必要はないので腕がすぐに疲れることがない。
【００２４】
本発明のまつ毛カール器は下まつ毛のみならず上まつ毛もカールすることができる。図４は上まつ毛をカールする使用状態を示したものである。この場合、まつ毛カール器を上下反転させ、条線状の挟圧部１１が上方に位置し、ゴム製の挟圧部１６がその下方に位置するようにして、両挟圧部１１，１６の間に上まつ毛を挿通し、操作部４，５を指で閉じて図４のように上まつ毛をカールする。このときも、図から明らかなようにまつ毛カール器をほぼ水平にした状態で作業を行なうことができるから、腕を大きく上に挙げる必要がなく腕がすぐに疲れることがない。
【００２５】
【実施例】
図５乃至図１１は実施例である。実施例のまつ毛カール器は全体がほぼプラスチックで形成され、操作部に指掛環がなく指で操作部を挟んで押すように操作するものであって、図６及び図７に示すように全体がやや幅広で薄手に形成されたものである。
【００２６】
実施例は図５に示すように一対の鋏片１８，１９が支軸２０で回動可能に軸着され、両鋏片１８，１９は全体がやや薄手であって、金属線のまつ毛カール器に比べて幅広に形成されている。各操作部２１，２２はまつ毛カール器を側方から見てほぼ直線状に形成されている。
【００２７】
一方の鋏片１８は他方の鋏片１９よりも幅広に形成され、鋏片１８の両側に側板部２４，２４が一体に形成されている。操作部２１の前方に支持部２５が一体に連なっており、この支持部２５は操作部２１に対して下方にやや傾斜して延び、支持部２５の前部付近で急激に上方に屈曲している。屈曲角度はほぼ直角あるいはそれよりもやや大きな角度であって、具体的には９０度から１１０度程度である。支持部２５はその先端で逆の方向に屈曲して基台部２６を形成している。なお、図７の符号４５は両側板部２４，２４をつなぐ補強リブである。
【００２８】
基台部２６にゴム製の押圧部２７が着脱自在に嵌合され、押圧部２７の突出表面が挟圧部２８として作用する。挟圧部２８は操作部２１に対してほぼ直角方向を向いている。操作部２１の内面には両操作部２１，２２を弾性的に押し広げるためのコイルスプリング３２が取り付けられ、さらに替えゴム３３が着脱自在に嵌合されている。
【００２９】
前述したように、支持部２５が操作部２１から下方に傾斜して延び、前部付近で急激に上方に屈曲することにより、挟圧部２８は操作部２１の両側に設けられた側板部２４，２４の延長上に存在している。すなわち、両挟圧部２８，４２の接点である挟圧位置４４が側板部２４，２４の延長上に存在することになる。なお、請求項６に記載した「挟圧位置は、操作部の延長線上又はその付近に存在する」との構成は、図６に示すように挟圧位置４４が側板部２４の延長上に存在していること、あるいは、支軸２０から前方に放射状に延びる線であって、操作部２１の長手方向延長線４６を中心として、上下それぞれ角度αが２０度である２本の放射状の線４７，４７の間の範囲内に存在していることである。
【００３０】
他方の鋏片１９は、前述した側板部２４，２４の内側で回動できるように、一方の鋏片１８よりも幅が狭く形成されている。図８に示すように、このまつ毛カール器は不使用時に畳んでおくことができる。操作部２２は操作部本体２３と別体に形成されており、操作部２２の先端の両側にアーム２９，２９が一体に設けられている。アーム２９，２９は操作部本体２３の両外側に添うように位置しており、アーム２９，２９の先端内面に設けられた支点であるジャーナル軸３０が、操作部本体２３に設けられているガイド部である断面長円形の軸受孔３１にジャーナル結合している。このジャーナル結合によって操作部２２は操作部本体２３に対して前後に移動可能であり、且つ操作部２２はジャーナル軸３０を中心に回動可能である。なお、符号４３は滑り止め用の突条である。
【００３１】
図８に示した畳まれた状態のまつ毛カール器を開いて使用状態にするための構成及び方法について説明する。まず、図８の状態で操作部２２を後方に引くと、操作部２１に設けられた係止突部３４と、操作部２２のＵ字形後壁３９に設けられた係止凹部３５の係止が外れて操作部２２は後方に移動する。操作部２２が後方に移動すると共にコイルスプリング３２の弾性力によって、そのコイルスプリング３２が当接している操作部本体２３が上方に回動し、それに従って操作部２２も開く。操作部２２が一杯に開いたときに操作部２２を前方に押して移動させ、操作部の先端部３６が操作部本体の段部３７の上にのるようにする。その際、突起３８が先端部３６の前方への行き過ぎを規制する作用をなす。先端部３６が段部３７にのったときに使用可能状態となり、両操作部２１，２２を指で挟んで操作することができる。
【００３２】
図８及び図９に示すように、前述したＵ字形後壁３９は、まつ毛カール器を畳んだときに側板部２４のＵ字形後端とほぼ同じ曲率に形成されている。したがって、畳んだときにＵ字形後壁３９と側板部２４のＵ字形後端面は面一となって、まつ毛カール器を持ったときに滑らかであり手触りが良い。
【００３３】
使用後にまつ毛カール器を畳むときは先の動作の逆を行なえばよい。すなわち、まず操作部２２を引いて後方に一杯に移動させてから操作部２１，２２を指で挟んでまつ毛カール器を畳む。次いで、後壁３９を前方に押して操作部２２を段部３７の手前まで一杯に移動させる。そのときに、Ｕ字形後壁３９の先端が操作部２１の下方に進み、係止突部３４と係止凹部３５が係止して畳んだ状態を保持できる。
【００３４】
操作部本体２３の前方には板状の支持部４０が一体に連なっており、支持部４０は操作部本体２３の長さ方向に対して下方にやや傾斜して延び、途中で曲がって上昇し、先端に押圧部４１が形成されている。すなわち、この支持部４０と、鋏片１８の支持部２５とが共に屈曲しており、その屈曲方向が同じである。このために、図６及び図８に示すようにまつ毛カール器を畳んだときに、支持部４０が支持部２５の間にほぼ納まるので、全体がスマートでコンパクトになる。もし、支持部４０を直線状に形成すると、く字形に曲がった支持部２５の三角の屈曲部分に支持部４０の側部がその三角の底辺のように表われるから、その屈曲部分が厚手となってスマートでコンパクトとならない。
【００３５】
押圧部４１の上端には条線状の挟圧部４２が形成されている。前述したように、一方の操作部２１の挟圧部２８は操作部２１に対してほぼ直角方向を向いているから、挟圧時の挟圧力の方向は操作部２１の長さ方向とほぼ直角をなす。
【００３６】
上述したまつ毛カール器の使用方法について説明する。図５は、条線状の挟圧部４２が下方に位置し、ゴム製の挟圧部２８がその上方に位置しており、この位置関係は下まつ毛をカールするための状態を示している。この状態で図１０に示すように下まつ毛を両挟圧部４２，２８の間に挿通し、操作部２１，２２を指で閉じてまつ毛を挟圧する。このとき、まつ毛カール器をほぼ水平にした状態で作業を行なうことができるから、腕を大きく上に挙げる必要はないので腕がすぐに疲れることがない。
【００３７】
実施例のまつ毛カール器も下まつ毛のみならず上まつ毛もカールすることができる。図１１は上まつ毛をカールする使用状態を示したものである。この場合、まつ毛カール器を上下反転させ、条線状の挟圧部４２が上方に位置し、ゴム製の挟圧部２８がその下方に位置するようにして、両挟圧部４２，２８の間に上まつ毛を挿通し、操作部２１，２２を指で閉じて図１１のように上まつ毛をカールする。このときも、図から明らかなようにまつ毛カール器をほぼ水平にした状態で作業を行なうことができるから、腕を大きく上に挙げる必要はないので腕がすぐに疲れることがない。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an eyelash curling device mainly used by women and girls, which can be used for lower eyelashes and also for upper eyelashes.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A pair of scissors are pivotally mounted about a support shaft, both scissors have a pair of pressing portions for pressing the eyelashes, and each pressing portion is provided with a pressing portion. Conventionally, there is an eyelash curling device in which the other pressing portion slides along the guide portion of the scissor piece to pinch and release the pinch, and the guide portion is substantially linear. Reference 1). In addition, there has conventionally been an eyelash curling device in which scissor pieces are formed relatively thin (for example, Patent Document 2).
[0003]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-9-173130 (FIG. 6)
[Patent Document 2]
JP 2001-204535 A
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The eyelash curl device of Patent Document 1 described above has a configuration in which the forked rod portion is bent in the middle, but the bending angle is relatively small. Therefore, the direction of the upper surface of the elastic receiving seat substantially coincides with the length direction of the support rod. Since the conventional eyelash curling device including the eyelash curling device of Patent Document 1 is for curling the upper eyelash, the upper eyelash is curled as shown in FIG. 6 of Patent Document 1. .
[0005]
Conventionally, there is no eyelash curling device for lower eyelashes, so when trying to curl lower eyelashes, the eyelash curling device is turned upside down from the state of FIG. I was using. However, when using it in such a manner, the hand holding the eyelash curl device must be raised close to the head, resulting in immediate fatigue of the hand. In addition, when the hands are raised, the sides open widely, which makes the hands unstable, making it difficult to smoothly curl the eyelashes. This is the same for the eyelash curling device of Patent Document 2. Therefore, the present invention can curl the upper eyelashes in addition to the lower eyelashes, and when curling any of the upper and lower eyelashes, the hand position is almost the same height, and it is not necessary to raise the hand near the head, An object of the present invention is to provide an eyelash curling device capable of performing stable work without being tired immediately.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, the pressing portion is squeezed and released by the other pressing portion sliding along the guide portion of the one scissor piece. Is a substantially right angle configuration. According to a second aspect of the present invention, one of the pressing portions is formed in a plate shape, and a pressing portion of the pressing portion is formed in a stripe shape, and the other pressing portion is formed of an elastic body such as rubber and the like. The element has a configuration in which an element that is a protruding surface of an elastic body such as rubber is limitedly added to the first aspect. A third aspect of the present invention is the scissor piece, wherein a portion extending forward from the support shaft is substantially linear when viewed from the side, and is bent at a boundary with the guide portion. This is a configuration limitedly added to the item 2. According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the base portion slides by receiving a force from the link bar, the link bar bends in the same direction as the bending direction of the one scissor piece, and a link near the boundary with the base portion. An element that the root portion of the rod extends in substantially the same direction as the guide portion is configured to be limitedly added to each of the above claims.

[0011]
【The invention's effect】
According to the first aspect of the present invention, the pressing portion slides along the guide portion of one scissor piece to perform clamping and release, and the guide portion is substantially perpendicular to the length direction of the one scissor piece. It is a configuration that makes. This means that the direction of the squeezing force at the time of squeezing and the length direction of one scissor piece are substantially perpendicular to each other. Therefore, when the eyelashes are pinched, the surface constituted by the guide portion follows the surface of the face, and the operation portion hits the face at a right angle or an angle close thereto without being greatly inclined with respect to the face surface. . In this way, the height of the hand holding the eyelash curl device is almost the same when the eyelash curl device is inverted and the upper and lower eyelashes are curled, and it does not come to a high position near the head, so the hand during use Less tired. Further, since the hand does not come to a high position, the side is not greatly opened and the hand is stable, so that the curling operation can be performed smoothly.
[0012]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, one of the pressing portions is formed in a plate shape, and a pressing portion of the pressing portion is formed in a stripe shape, and the other pressing portion is formed of an elastic body such as rubber and the like. Since the portion is a protruding surface of an elastic body such as rubber, the lashes can be surely curled by compression of the elastic body such as rubber at the time of pinching. According to a third aspect of the present invention, a portion of one scissor piece extending forward from the support shaft is substantially straight when viewed from the side, and is bent at a boundary with the guide portion. Therefore, by bending the guide portion at a substantially right angle to the portion extending forward, the guide portion is substantially at a right angle to the length direction of the scissors piece, so that the processing is simple. According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the base portion slides by receiving a force from the link bar, the link bar bends in the same direction as the bending direction of the one scissor piece, and the link bar near the boundary with the base portion. At the base of the guide extends substantially in the same direction as the guide. Therefore, since the force for sliding the base portion works along the guide, that is, in the sliding direction, the base portion slides smoothly and the operation is easy.
[0013]
According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, a pair of scissors pieces are rotatably mounted around a support shaft, each scissor piece is formed to be relatively thin, and each operation portion is substantially linear when the eyelash curl device is viewed from the side. The direction of the squeezing force at the time of squeezing and the length direction of at least one of the operation portions are substantially perpendicular to each other. Therefore, the fact that the direction of the squeezing force at the time of squeezing and the length direction of at least one of the operation parts are substantially perpendicular to each other means that the scissors piece is formed relatively thin, and that each operation part is In combination with the fact that the operating portion is formed substantially linearly, the operating portion at the time of use hits the face at a right angle or an angle close thereto without being largely inclined with respect to the surface of the face. In this way, the height of the hand holding the eyelash curl device is almost the same when the eyelash curl device is inverted and the upper and lower eyelashes are curled, and it does not come to a high position near the head, so the hand during use Less tired. Further, since the hand does not come to a high position, the side is not greatly opened and the hand is stable, so that the curling operation can be performed smoothly.
[0014]
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, a pair of scissor pieces are rotatably mounted on a support shaft, and one scissor piece is bent halfway in a portion forward of the support shaft, and a direction of a clamping force at the time of clamping. And the length direction of the operating portion of at least one scissor piece is substantially at a right angle, and the pinching position exists on or near the extension of the operating portion. Therefore, the direction of the pinching force at the time of pinching and the length direction of the operating portion of at least one scissor piece are substantially perpendicular to each other. The person hits the face at a right angle or an angle close to the right angle without tilting. And since the pinching position exists on or near the extension of the operation unit, the height of the hand holding the eyelash curling device is almost the same when the eyelash curling device is turned over and the upper and lower eyelashes are curled. Because you never come to a high position near your head, your hands are less likely to get tired during use. Further, since the hand does not come to a high position, the side is not greatly opened and the hand is stable, so that the curling operation can be performed smoothly.
[0015]
According to a seventh aspect, an elastic member for urging the clamping portions so as to open each other is provided between the pair of scissors pieces. Therefore, usually, the elastic force acts to open the operation part, so there is no need to provide a finger ring and insert the finger there to open the operation part, and when the finger ring is not provided, use the eyelash curl device. It can be formed thin. Alternatively, when the finger ring is provided so as to be foldable, it can be similarly formed to be thin. In addition, the operating portion of the other scissor piece is movably supported by the fulcrum portion and the guide portion with respect to the operating portion body, and the other operating portion can be pressed by the force point portion against the elastic member. It is possible to take the non-use state in which both scissors pieces can be folded. Therefore, when not in use, by keeping the operation unit in a folded state, the entire unit becomes thinner, which is convenient for carrying.
[0016]
Claim 8 is a configuration in which the support portions of both scissors pieces are bent in the same direction. When a pair of scissors is pivotally mounted on the support shaft, if both scissors are formed almost straight, the tip of the scissors is bent inward to oppose the clamping section and pressed. It is necessary to form a part. Then, the interval between the two pressing portions becomes narrower by the amount of the bent portion of the scissor pieces protruding inward, so that the opening angle of both scissor pieces must be increased in order to sufficiently increase the interval. For this reason, the operation of the operation unit with a finger becomes unstable because both operation units open at a large angle during use. Therefore, in general, at least one of the support portions is bent upward or downward so that the interval between the two pressing portions is not reduced. If one of the supporting portions is bent and the other supporting portion is kept straight, the other straight supporting portion extends to the bent portion when both scissor pieces are folded. As a result, since the two supporting portions do not overlap, the side area of that portion is large, so that the portion is not compact and is rather thick. This is remarkable when both support portions are bent in opposite directions. Then, in claim 8, since both support parts are bent in the same direction, when both scissors pieces are folded, both support parts overlap and a thin eyelash curl device can be obtained.
[0017]
Claim 9 is formed so that the width of one scissor piece is larger than the width of the other scissor piece, and one scissor piece has a side plate portion, and the other scissor piece is between the side plate portions. It is a configuration that can be folded almost to fit. Therefore, the side portion of the other scissors piece is substantially exposed between the side plate portions and is not exposed. When the folded eyelash curl device is held in the hand, only the side plate portion touches the hand, so that the feel is good.
[0018]
According to a tenth aspect, one of the pressing portions is formed of an elastic body such as rubber, the pressing portion of the pressing portion is a protruding surface of the elastic body such as rubber, and the pressing portion of the other pressing portion has a linear shape. This is the configuration that has been done. Therefore, since the striae-shaped pinching portion presses the eyelash while compressing the rubber at the pinching position, the eyelash can be surely curled.
[0019]

A support portion 25 is integrally connected in front of the operation portion 21, and the support portion 25 extends slightly inclined downward with respect to the operation portion 21, and sharply bends upward near a front portion of the support portion 25. I have. The bending angle is substantially a right angle or a slightly larger angle, specifically, about 90 to 110 degrees. The support portion 25 is bent in the opposite direction at its tip to form a base portion 26. Reference numeral 45 in FIG. 7 denotes a reinforcing rib connecting the two side plate portions 24, 24.
[0028]
A pressing portion 27 made of rubber is removably fitted to the base portion 26, and the protruding surface of the pressing portion 27 acts as a pressing portion 28. The holding portion 28 is oriented substantially perpendicular to the operation portion 21. A coil spring 32 for elastically expanding the operation units 21 and 22 is attached to the inner surface of the operation unit 21, and a replacement rubber 33 is detachably fitted.
[0029]
As described above, the support portion 25 is inclined downward from the operation portion 21 and sharply bends near the front portion, so that the pressure holding portion 28 is provided on the side plate portions 24 provided on both sides of the operation portion 21. , 24 on the extension. That is, the squeezing position 44, which is the contact point between the squeezing portions 28 and 42, exists on the extension of the side plate portions 24 and 24. In the configuration described in claim 6, "the squeezing position exists on or near the extension of the operation unit", the squeezing position 44 exists on the extension of the side plate portion 24 as shown in FIG. Or two radial lines 47 extending radially forward from the support shaft 20 and having an angle α of 20 degrees in the vertical direction about the longitudinal extension line 46 of the operation unit 21. , 47 within the range.
[0030]
The other scissor piece 19 is formed narrower than the one scissor piece 18 so as to be rotatable inside the side plate portions 24, 24 described above. As shown in FIG. 8, the eyelash curler can be folded when not in use. The operation unit 22 is formed separately from the operation unit main body 23, and arms 29, 29 are integrally provided on both sides of the distal end of the operation unit 22. The arms 29, 29 are positioned along both outer sides of the operation section main body 23, and a journal shaft 30, which is a fulcrum provided on the inner surface of the distal end of the arm 29, 29, is provided on a guide provided on the operation section main body 23.

With this journal connection, the operation unit 22 can move back and forth with respect to the operation unit main body 23, and the operation unit 22 can rotate around the journal shaft 30. Reference numeral 43 denotes a ridge for preventing slippage.
[0031]
A configuration and a method for opening the folded eyelash curl device shown in FIG. 8 to a use state will be described. First, when the operating portion 22 is pulled backward in the state of FIG. 8, the locking projection 34 provided on the operating portion 21 and the locking recess 35 provided on the U-shaped rear wall 39 of the operating portion 22 are locked. And the operation unit 22 moves backward. The operating portion 22 moves rearward and the elastic force of the coil spring 32 causes the operating portion main body 23 with which the coil spring 32 contacts to rotate upward, and the operating portion 22 opens accordingly. When the operation unit 22 is fully opened, the operation unit 22 is pushed forward and moved so that the distal end portion 36 of the operation unit rests on the step 37 of the operation unit main body. At this time, the projection 38 functions to restrict the forward end of the distal end portion 36 from going forward. When the distal end portion 36 is placed on the step portion 37, it can be used, and can be operated by sandwiching both the operation portions 21 and 22 with fingers.
[0032]
As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the above-mentioned U-shaped rear wall 39 is formed to have substantially the same curvature as the U-shaped rear end of the side plate portion 24 when the lash curl device is folded. Therefore, when folded, the U-shaped rear wall 39 and the U-shaped rear end face of the side plate portion 24 are flush with each other, so that the lash curling device is smooth and has a good touch.

When folding the eyelash curler after use, the above operation may be reversed. That is, the user pulls the operation unit 22 to move it fully backward, and then folds the eyelash curling device by sandwiching the operation units 21 and 22 with fingers. Next, the rear wall 39 is pushed forward to move the operation unit 22 to just before the step 37. At this time, the distal end of the U-shaped rear wall 39 advances below the operation section 21, and the locking projection 34 and the locking recess 35 are locked so that the folded state can be maintained.
[0034]
A plate-shaped support portion 40 is integrally connected in front of the operation portion main body 23, and the support portion 40 extends slightly inclining downward with respect to the length direction of the operation portion main body 23, and bends and rises in the middle. A pressing portion 41 is formed at the tip. That is, the support portion 40 and the support portion 25 of the scissor piece 18 are both bent, and the bending directions are the same. For this reason, when the eyelash curling device is folded as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, the support portion 40 is substantially accommodated between the support portions 25, so that the whole is smart and compact. If the support portion 40 is formed in a straight line, the side portion of the support portion 40 appears as the base of the triangle at the triangular bent portion of the bent support portion 25, and the bent portion is thick. It is not smart and compact.
[0035]
At the upper end of the pressing portion 41, a striation-shaped pressing portion 42 is formed.

Make
[0036]
A method of using the above-described eyelash curling device will be described. FIG. 5 shows a state in which the striae-shaped pressing portion 42 is located below and the rubber pressing portion 28 is located above it, and this positional relationship is for curling the lower eyelashes. . In this state, the lower eyelashes are inserted between the pressing portions 42 and 28 as shown in FIG. 10, and the operation portions 21 and 22 are closed with fingers to press the eyelashes. At this time, since the operation can be performed with the eyelash curling device being substantially horizontal, there is no need to raise the arm greatly, so that the arm does not tire immediately.
[0037]
In the eyelash curling device of the embodiment, not only the lower eyelash but also the upper eyelash can be curled. FIG. 11 shows a use state in which the upper lashes are curled. In this case, the eyelash curl device is turned upside down so that the striae-shaped pressing portion 42 is located above, and the rubber pressing portion 28 is located below the pressing portion. The upper eyelashes are inserted therebetween, and the operation units 21 and 22 are closed with fingers, and the upper eyelashes are curled as shown in FIG. Also at this time, since the work can be performed with the eyelash curling device being substantially horizontal as is clear from the figure, the arm does not need to be raised greatly, so that the arm does not tire immediately.
