It is recommended that the inner space (9) is aligned laterally with respect to the inner space (9) to be arranged and that the inner space (9) includes a protrusion (2).

Description

  The object of the present invention relates to a device for applying a fluid product to human hair in the beauty salon industry.

  This type of device is used in the beauty salon industry where hair treatment agents are applied. Such a treatment should be evenly distributed on the hair as a flowable product.

  A device comprising a product dispenser having a plurality of protrusions is known from US Pat. No. 6,053,177, which is a device having a base for receiving the protrusions. The base consists of an inner region that extends between the protrusions, bordered by an outer region of the base. The product dispenser can be connected to the container via a coupling. The protrusion has an opening for dispensing the product.

  In known devices, an opening is located in the upper center in the projection. This is disadvantageous in that the hair between the protrusions will not be wetted with a sufficient amount of product, which will cause the hair to wet when the device is poured into the curly hair and snugly attached. Can work to stop.

  The aim is to overcome this drawback by further developing a device as claimed in claim 1.

  This object is achieved by the characteristic components according to claim 1. Accordingly, all the openings extend between the protrusions located in the internal space and are aligned in the lateral direction with respect to the internal space arranged on the internal region.

  The proposed device has the advantage that when the device is applied to the hair like a comb, the hair is sufficiently wetted with a product having fluidity. If there are relatively few protrusions, for example if 6 to 16 protrusions are provided, the device is suitable for considerable curly hair. Since all the openings are aligned with each other towards the interior space, the hair between the two protrusions is always wetted with the product. The openings do not line up outside the interior space, for example, so as to line up toward the external region of the base. This type of arrangement is not effective for product use as a result. This is partly advantageous for considerable curly hair, since if the dispenser moves along the strand, only one strand will travel relatively within the center of the product dispenser.

  Advantageous embodiments of the proposed invention are described in claims 2 to 8.

  The two rows of protrusions (Claim 2) are suitable for relatively easily pouring the product dispenser on the considerable curly hair.

  As claimed in claim 3, if the outer region of the base is provided with a fringed edge, this edge can wipe off excess product from the hair.

  In particular, if the protrusion has a relatively large diameter (about 2 to 10 mm in the center), in the region facing the head, the protrusion that is rounded into a spherical shape (Claim 4) is applied to the considerable curly hair. It is relatively easy. A conical shape that narrows towards the head is also an advantage.

  If all the openings are at the same height (Claim 5), the hair strands at this height are evenly wetted with the product. However, if the openings are of various heights (Claim 6), the strands are wetted more evenly at various heights after the product dispenser has been applied to the strand one or more times. Very good results are obtained when the lateral openings according to claim 7 are provided at the top of some protrusions and at the bottom of the remaining protrusions.

  9. If the connecting part according to claim 8 has an internal thread that can be screwed to the neck of the container, the product is removed from the container after the device is screwed to the container, so that it is applied directly to the hair. To be easy to do.

  In a device 1 for applying a flowable product to human hair, a product dispenser 3 has a plurality of protrusions 2 (FIG. 1). The product dispenser 3 has a base 6 for receiving the protrusion 2. The base 6 consists of an inner region 5 that extends between the protrusions 2, which are bordered by an outer region 7 of the base 6. A product dispenser 3 can be screwed onto the container via a connection 4 having an internal thread 11. The protrusion 2 has an opening 8 for dispensing the product. All the openings 8 are aligned laterally with respect to the internal space 9 disposed on the internal region 5, and the internal space 9 includes the protrusions 2. None of the openings 8 are directed to the outer region 7, which is bordered by the edge 10 to wipe off excess product from the hair.

  There are two rows of protrusions 2 and each of the protrusions 2 is rounded into a spherical shape in the region facing the head. Each of the openings 8 is the same height as all the other openings 8. The eight openings 8 face the same direction, but the two openings 8 of the two protrusions 2 arranged on the side wall face the opposite direction. Thus, when the product dispenser 3 is poured onto the hair strand to straighten the hair, such as by using a straightener, a certain amount of product is placed on the hair strand through each of the protrusions 2. Adhere to. The product does not adhere to the outer region 7, which means optimal use of the product.

  As in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 2, each of the six central protrusions 2 has two openings 8, and each of the four protrusions 2 adjacent to the two rows has only one opening 8. This ensures that each hair strand flowing through the product dispenser 3 is wetted with the product on the opposite side. As shown in the first exemplary embodiment, the strand is wetted at a constant height relative to the base 6 of the device 1.

  On the other hand, in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the lateral openings 8 are provided at the top of some protrusions 2 and at the bottom of the remaining protrusions 2 so that the strands get wet at different heights. . The four protrusions 2 have one opening 8, and the six protrusions 2 have two openings 8 at the center. However, in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the opening 8 can be removed in each of the six projections 2 in the middle. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3, each of the protrusions 2 has two openings 8 at the same height on the protrusion 2.
