Description

本発明は、とくに、マスカラ液を塗付するのに用いて好適な、コーム付きブラシに関するものであり、該ブラシの使い勝手のより一層の改善を図ろうとするものである。   The present invention relates to a brush with a comb that is particularly suitable for use in applying mascara liquid, and intends to further improve the usability of the brush.

マスカラは、目元の美観を引き立たせるために睫毛に塗布する化粧品の一種であり、その塗布具としては、支持ロッドの長手方向に櫛歯を配列したコームタイプのものや鍼状突起を複数本配列したブラシタイプのものが主流となっており、どちらの塗布具を使用するかは中身に応じて化粧品メーカーが決めているのが現状であった。   Mascara is a type of cosmetic that is applied to the eyelashes to enhance the beauty of the eyes. As the applicator, comb-type ones with comb teeth arranged in the longitudinal direction of the support rod and a plurality of hook-like projections are arranged. The brush type is the mainstream, and it was the current situation that the cosmetic manufacturer decides which applicator to use according to the contents.

ところで、実際に化粧品を使用する消費者によっては、両方の機能を兼ね備えた塗布具を希望する要望もあり、それに対応した商品の開発が望まれていた。   By the way, depending on the consumer who actually uses cosmetics, there is a demand for an applicator that has both functions, and the development of a product corresponding to it has been desired.

この点に関する先行技術としては、ワイヤー(芯線)を捩って形成した塗布部を有する塗布用ブラシに、櫛の歯状のコームが形成されたマスカラブラシが提案されている(例えば特許文献1参照)。このマスカラブラシは消費者の要望に応じた工夫がなされているけれども、同マスカラブラシは、コームを形成した軸部にワイヤーを挿入固定する構造であることから、使用状況やワイヤーの径によっては、軸部とワイヤーとの固定が外れてしまい、ワイヤーが抜け出してしまう可能性が存在していた。
特開2004−329946号公報
As a prior art regarding this point, there has been proposed a mascara brush in which a comb-like comb is formed on an application brush having an application part formed by twisting a wire (core wire) (see, for example, Patent Document 1). ). Although this mascara brush has been devised in response to consumer demands, the mascara brush has a structure in which a wire is inserted and fixed to the shaft part on which the comb is formed, so depending on the use situation and the diameter of the wire, There was a possibility that the shaft and the wire would be unfixed and the wire would come out.
JP 2004-329946 A

本発明の課題は、使用状況に応じて使い分けができる使い勝手のよいコーム付きブラシを提案するところにある。   The subject of this invention exists in the place which proposes the brush with a comb with the ease of use which can be used properly according to a use condition.

本発明は、複数本の鍼状突起を配列してその一群を塗布部として支持ロッドの外表面に配設したブラシであって、
前記塗布部の配設域は、前記支持ロッドの周方向の所定角度域であり、
前記支持ロッドの外表面で、かつ、該塗布部の所定角度域を除いた領域に、前記支持ロッドの軸線と直交する断面形状が該支持ロッドの径方向外側に向けて先細りとなる櫛歯を、支持ロッドの軸線に沿って間隔をおいて複数配列して、その一群を前記塗布部よりも硬質となるコームとして一体成形してなる、ことを特徴とするコーム付きブラシである。
The present invention is a brush that is arranged on the outer surface of the support rod as a coating portion by arranging a plurality of hook-shaped projections,
The arrangement area of the application part is a predetermined angle area in the circumferential direction of the support rod,
Comb teeth having a cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the axis of the support rod tapering outward in the radial direction of the support rod on the outer surface of the support rod and excluding a predetermined angle region of the application portion. A brush with a comb, wherein a plurality of brushes are arranged at intervals along the axis of the support rod, and a group thereof is integrally formed as a comb that is harder than the application portion.

上記の構成になるブラシにおいて、前記塗布部及びコームは、インジェクション成形により支持ロッドに一体化させたものとするのが好ましい。   In the brush configured as described above, it is preferable that the application portion and the comb are integrated with the support rod by injection molding.

また、前記塗布部及びコームは、エラストマーからなり、成形厚さ、配列ピッチ、径の中から選ばれる何れか1つ又はそれらの中から選択される2つ以上を組み合わせて変化させることにより硬さを変更する。   Further, the application part and the comb are made of an elastomer, and the hardness is obtained by changing any one selected from a molding thickness, an array pitch, and a diameter, or a combination of two or more selected from them. To change.

さらに、前記塗布部を軟質材にて構成し、前記コームを硬質材にて構成し、それらのうちの何れか一方をインサート成形あるいは2色成形することによって支持ロッドに一体化させてもよい。   Furthermore, the application portion may be made of a soft material, the comb may be made of a hard material, and one of them may be integrated with the support rod by insert molding or two-color molding.

支持ロッドの外表面に、鍼状突起を配列した塗布部(ブラシ部に相当する)と、コームを一体形成したので、使用状況に応じた使い方ができる。   Since the application part (corresponding to the brush part) in which the hook-shaped projections are arranged and the comb are integrally formed on the outer surface of the support rod, it can be used in accordance with the use situation.

塗布部、コームともに支持ロッドに一体成形してあるので、それが簡単に脱落することがなく、安定的な塗布が可能となる。   Since both the application part and the comb are integrally formed on the support rod, the application part and the comb are not easily dropped off, and stable application is possible.

以下、図面を参照して本発明をより具体的に説明する。
図1は、マスカラ容器の全体構成を示したものであり、図における1はマスカラ液を収納する容器、2は容器1の口部に着脱自在に取り付けられるキャップ、3はキャップ2に固定保持されるロッド、4はロッド3の先端に固定保持されるコーム付きブラシ、そして5は容器1の口部に配置されブラシ4に付着させた内容物の付着量を調整するしごき部材である。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows the overall structure of a mascara container. In the figure, 1 is a container for storing mascara liquid, 2 is a cap that is detachably attached to the mouth of the container 1, and 3 is fixedly held by the cap 2. A rod 4 is a brush with a comb that is fixedly held at the tip of the rod 3, and 5 is a squeezing member that is disposed at the mouth of the container 1 and adjusts the amount of contents attached to the brush 4.

図2〜図4は、上記コーム付きブラシ4のみを取り出して示した図であり、図2は側面図、図3は背面図、そして図4は正面図である。   2 to 4 are views showing only the comb-equipped brush 4 taken out, FIG. 2 is a side view, FIG. 3 is a rear view, and FIG. 4 is a front view.

本発明に従うコーム付きブラシ4は、ロッド3につながる支持ロッド4aと、複数本の鍼状突起4bをロッド3の周方向180°の範囲で9列に並べた塗布部(ブラシ部に相当)4bと、該支持ロッド4aの外表面で、かつ、該塗布部4bを除いた領域において櫛歯4cを複数枚配列したコーム4cからなる。 The comb-equipped brush 4 according to the present invention has a coating rod (corresponding to a brush portion) in which a support rod 4a connected to the rod 3 and a plurality of hook-shaped projections 4b 1 are arranged in nine rows in the range of 180 ° in the circumferential direction of the rod 3. and 4b, the outer surface of the supporting rod 4a, and comprises a comb-tooth 4c 1 of a plurality sequences to comb 4c in a region excluding the coating portion 4b.

上記のコーム付きブラシ4は、エラストマー(例えば、ポリエステル系エラストマー)等の軟材質で構成され、塗布部4b及びコーム4cが支持ロッド4aに一体成形されており、鍼状突起4bやコーム4cの櫛歯4cが簡単に脱落することがなく、しかも、支持ロッド4aを回転(反転)させるのみで塗布状況に応じた使い分けが可能になる。 The comb-equipped brush 4 is made of a soft material such as an elastomer (for example, a polyester-based elastomer), and the application portion 4b and the comb 4c are integrally formed on the support rod 4a. The comb-shaped protrusion 4b 1 and the comb 4c The comb teeth 4c 1 do not easily fall off, and can be selectively used according to the application situation by simply rotating (reversing) the support rod 4a.

通常、塗布部4bは睫毛の全体にマスカラ液を均一に塗布するのに使用されるので、軟質なものにて構成され、コーム4cはマスカラ液を塗布したのち睫毛を整えるのに使用されるので、硬質なものにて構成されるが、塗布部4b、コーム4cの何れも同じ材質になるエラストマーの如きを用いる場合には、厚さtや径dあるいは配列ピッチP等の何れか1つあるいはその中から2つ以上を選択的に選んで調整することで硬さを変更する。図面に示した例では、塗布部4bの鍼状突起4bの直径(最大部)0.3mmとし、コーム4cの櫛歯4cの厚さ(最大部)を0.4mmとして櫛歯4cの厚さを該鍼状突起4bの直径の約1.3倍としたものであって、これにより櫛歯4cを鍼状突起4bよりも硬質なものとしている。 Normally, the application part 4b is used to uniformly apply the mascara solution to the entire eyelashes, so it is composed of a soft material, and the comb 4c is used to prepare the eyelashes after applying the mascara solution. In the case where an elastomer made of the same material is used for both the coating portion 4b and the comb 4c, either one of the thickness t, the diameter d, the arrangement pitch P, or the like is used. The hardness is changed by selectively selecting and adjusting two or more of them. In the example shown in the drawings, and鍼状protrusions 4b 1 having a diameter (maximum portion) 0.3 mm of the coating portion 4b, the thickness of the comb teeth 4c 1 thickness of the comb teeth 4c 1 of the comb 4c (maximum portion) as 0.4mm The diameter is about 1.3 times the diameter of the hook-shaped protrusion 4b 1 , thereby making the comb teeth 4c 1 harder than the hook-shaped protrusion 4b 1 .

塗布部4b、コーム4cは相互に異材質なものにて構成することもでき、この場合には、予め何れかの部材を成形しておき、インサート後に他方を射出成形するインサート成形あるいは2色成形により支持ロッド4aとの一体化を図る。   The application part 4b and the comb 4c can be made of different materials. In this case, insert molding or two-color molding in which one of the members is molded in advance and the other is injection molded after insertion. Thus, integration with the support rod 4a is achieved.

上記の如く、用途に適した硬さに調整すると、使い勝手がよくなるだけでなく使用感も改善されることになる。   As described above, when the hardness is adjusted to be suitable for the application, not only the usability is improved, but also the usability is improved.

前述したとおり、塗布部4b、コーム4cはポリエステル系のエラストマーを適用する場合について説明したが、その他、オレフィン系エラストマー、スチレン系エラストマー等の各種エラストマーやポリエチレン、ポリプロピレンなどのオレフィン系樹脂、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリオキシメチレン等を用いることもできる。エラストマーを材料として選択する場合は、表面硬度を50〜80(ASTM D2240)とするのが好ましい。というのは、硬度が50未満では成形性に劣る一方、80を超える場合には塗布部が硬くなりすぎ使用感が悪くなるからである。また、支持ロッド4aはポリプロピレン、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリオキシメチレン等を適用することができる。   As described above, the application part 4b and the comb 4c have been described for the case where a polyester elastomer is applied. In addition, various elastomers such as an olefin elastomer and a styrene elastomer, olefin resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and polybutylene terephthalate Polyoxymethylene or the like can also be used. When an elastomer is selected as the material, the surface hardness is preferably 50 to 80 (ASTM D2240). This is because if the hardness is less than 50, the moldability is inferior, whereas if it exceeds 80, the coated part becomes too hard and the feeling of use becomes worse. Also, polypropylene, polybutylene terephthalate, polyoxymethylene, or the like can be applied to the support rod 4a.

支持ロッド4aとロッド3は別体物として図示したが、一体物とすることも可能で、この点については限定されない。   Although the support rod 4a and the rod 3 are illustrated as separate objects, they may be integrated, and this point is not limited.

コーム4cの櫛歯4cについては、睫毛を整える機能を発揮させるためにその厚さは0.35〜0.55mmの範囲で変更するのがよく、鍼状突起4bは睫毛に均一にマスカラ液と塗布するために、断面が円形になるものが適用され、径は、直径0.2〜0.4mmの範囲で変更することができる。さらに、鍼状突起4bの径と櫛歯4cの厚さとの比は1:1.1〜1:2.0の範囲とするのがよく、とくに1:1.30〜1:1.50の範囲とするのが好ましい。なお、鍼状突起4bを形成する範囲及び列の数は、ロッド3の周方向180°の範囲に9列設けるものに限るものではなく、適宜変更が可能である。 The comb teeth 4c 1 of the comb 4c, its thickness in order to exhibit the function to arrange the eyelashes may have to vary from 0.35~0.55Mm,鍼状protrusions 4b 1 and uniformly mascara to eyelashes coating In order to do this, a circular cross-section is applied, and the diameter can be changed in the range of 0.2 to 0.4 mm. Further, the ratio between the diameter of the hook-shaped protrusion 4b 1 and the thickness of the comb tooth 4c 1 is preferably in the range of 1: 1.1-1: 2.0, and more preferably in the range of 1: 1.30-1: 1.50. . It should be noted that the range and the number of rows in which the hook-shaped protrusions 4b 1 are formed are not limited to those provided in 9 rows in the range of 180 ° in the circumferential direction of the rod 3, and can be appropriately changed.

使用状況に応じてコームと塗布部とを使い分けできる使い勝手のよいブラシが提供できる。   An easy-to-use brush that can properly use the comb and the application portion according to the use situation can be provided.
