Description

The present invention relates to a liquid applicator, in particular, a hair dye, or a hair applicator that can apply a hair dye or the like without soiling fingers and scalp when a drug or the like is applied to hair or fur.

Conventionally, a normal brush has been used as an application body for hair dyes and the like. That is, it is a method in which hair dye is made usable by mixing it in a container before use and then applied with a normal brush (for example, Patent Document 1). On the other hand, it is in a state where it can be used simply by pulling out the applicator provided with a comb body that has been brought into contact with a porous body such as a sponge impregnated with a hair dye already in a usable state. A hair dye applicator has been proposed (Patent Document 2). According to this mechanism, it is possible to apply hair dye etc. to the hair very easily, but when applying hair dye etc. while combing the hair with the comb body, the hair dye attached to the comb body at the initial stage of work. In order to apply hair dye etc. to a long part, it is necessary to make contact with a sponge body impregnated with hair dye etc. many times and apply it while attaching the hair dye etc. to the comb body There is very annoying.

And the structure which equips the bases, such as a comb body, with porous bodies, such as sponge which impregnated the hair dye etc. which are already in the usable state, is also proposed (patent documents 3 and 4). With these structures, if the comb teeth have a capillary force, the hair dye is supplied from the porous body to the comb teeth, so that the hair dye can be applied while combing the hair with the comb body. However, if treatment such as sealing the entire applicator or the porous body is not performed, if the hair dye contains a volatile substance, it will evaporate, which naturally limits the composition of the hair dye. Will be. In addition, when exchanging a porous body impregnated with hair dye or the like, it must be touched directly, and unless the tool is particularly prepared, fingers will be contaminated with the hair dye or the like.

In view of these problems, using a configuration of a writing instrument or the like, a storage unit that stores hair dye is provided, and only a necessary amount of hair dye or the like used for application is oozed out from the application body protruding to the application unit. An applicator configured as described above has been proposed (Patent Document 5). Here, the protrusion of the comb body is lowered and placed around the application body, so it is possible to easily apply hair coloring etc. to the hair, but since the comb body is short and low, it is applied while pressing the hair etc. as a result The coating operation itself is very complicated.

A portable hair applicator superior to the applicator has been developed and implemented by the applicant of the present invention (for example, Patent Document 6). Since the comb body is a porous body and it has a storage part such as hermetically sealed hair dye, it is easy to use and has excellent storage properties. Since the process is somewhat complicated, problems remain in production.

Along with the above-mentioned conventional technology, it has a sealed container in which hair dye is stored, and can press the hair dye by gas pressure etc. to forcibly apply a large amount of liquid from the discharge port provided in the comb body etc. The applicator which was made is also implemented (for example, patent document 7). These products give the user a sense that a large amount of liquid can be applied evenly, but there are drawbacks such as the possibility of contaminating the fingers because a large amount of hair dye is discharged at once. In addition, there are difficulties in manufacturing such as having to enclose gas.

This is a replacement method that does not contaminate fingers and the like when the application cartridge is replaced.

Since this invention is comprised as mentioned above, there exists the following effect.
An accommodation portion fixing ring for connecting a housing portion, which is made of a porous body impregnated with a hair dye or the like, and is fixed by projecting a part of a flexible application body, and an annular comb body portion. The applicator such as a brush is configured with the entire appearance of the applicator. The comb teeth arranged in the annular comb body portion are set up obliquely so as to cover the application body. Since the comb teeth and the application body are close to each other, the hair combed by the comb teeth can easily touch the application body, and uniform application of a hair dye or the like can be easily performed. Further, since the number of parts is small, the structure can be understood by a general user, and the housing portion (cartridge) can be easily attached and detached. Further, by providing a lid that covers the application part side, evaporation of the solvent and the like can be suppressed for a while even if the use is temporarily interrupted, and the usable state can be kept long. Evaporation is further suppressed by providing a seal portion at an appropriate location.

Before setting the applicator in the applicator, the applicator can be kept away from the atmosphere by using an appropriate lid and seal when not in use, enabling long-term storage and use. When a person wants to use it, it can be solved so that it can be set easily. By changing the capillary force of the coated body, a coating solution such as a hair dye impregnated in the coated body can be unevenly distributed. Specifically, since the coating solution moves toward a portion where the capillary force is high, the capillary force where the hair dye or the like is normally desired is set high. Here, the applied body is defined as having flexibility, but specifically, having flexibility means that the measured value of JIS K6253 type A durometer is 60 or less, preferably 20 or more and 50 or less. Say there is. When the value exceeds 60, there is a high possibility that the contact with the hair or the like is performed only at a point without deformation when the hair or the like hits. Although not particularly confirmed, it can be easily imagined that if it is too soft, the applied body is deformed by a slight impact and the impregnated liquid spills out.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
In this application, the direction of the tip of the comb body of the applicator is “upward”, and the direction of the base of the applicator, that is, the portion where the applicator and the applicator main body are fixed, is “downward”. The direction of the portion where the applicator main body and the gripping part are connected is “rear”, and the opposite direction is “front”.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The external appearance when the embodiment is assembled is shown in FIGS. As shown in these drawings, a grip 11 is provided at the rear of the main body 1. In addition, in the front of the main body 1, a housing portion fixing ring 12 that sandwiches the housing portion 32 with the annular comb tooth portion 2 is provided. A hinge structure (pivoting shaft) 13 that pivotally supports the annular comb body portion 2 is provided in the forefront of the outer side of the housing portion fixing ring 12. The annular comb body portion 2 has a hinge structure (pivot bearing) 24 that pivotally supports the lock member 4 on the rear side thereof, and comb teeth bodies 22, 22... Has been. The accommodating portion 3 of the application body 31 sandwiched between the accommodation portion fixing ring 12 and the annular comb body portion 2 is a box that opens upward. The application body 31 protrudes from the opening, and the protruding portion 31a is the aforementioned comb. It has a shape surrounded by the tooth bodies 22, 22.

The appearance when the applicator lid 5 is further covered from above is shown in FIG. Here, it is made to fit in the fitting part provided in the periphery of the cyclic | annular part 21 of the cyclic | annular comb body part 2. As shown in FIG. Even if a fitting part is provided in the peripheral part of the accommodating part fixing ring 12 and the applicator lid 5 is fitted, the same effect can be obtained, and the fitting position is not limited as much as possible.

As shown in FIG. 3, the main body 1 is roughly a portion of the grip portion 11 at the rear and a portion of the accommodating portion fixing ring 12 at the front. Here, the gripping portion 11 has a bag-like structure opened upward to reduce the weight of the member, but may be an annular structure body that is hollowed out. A hinge structure (pivot shaft) 13 that pivotally supports the annular comb portion 2 is provided in front of the accommodating portion fixing ring 12 portion, and a fitting arm 42 of the lock member 4 is provided behind the accommodating portion fixing ring 12. An annular operating portion 14 is provided, and includes a convex portion 15 fixed by a fitting arm 42. As shown in FIG. 19, the hinge structure (pivot shaft) 13 is a part of a substantially circular cross section, and the convex portion 13 a that prevents the free pivot of the bearing 23 on the annular comb body 2 side is provided. Prepare. When the concave portion 23a provided in the bearing 23 and the convex portion 13a are loosely fitted, the pivotal movement of the annular comb body portion 2 can be gently prevented, and the housing portion 32 can be prevented from dropping. If force is applied from there and the convex part 13a is taken out from the concave part 23a, the annular comb part 2 and the main body 1 can be largely opened, and the accommodating part 32 can be easily exchanged.

The annular comb body 2 has a shape as shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b).
Here, comb teeth bodies 21, 21... Extending obliquely upward and upward are provided above the peripheral edge of the substantially rectangular annular body. The tips of the comb teeth 21, 21... Share a virtual surface. Since the comb-tooth body 21 is provided to extend obliquely upward, the combed hair is applied compared to the case where the comb-tooth body is erected at right angles to the surface formed by the annular portion 22 of the annular comb body portion 2. It is easy to contact the body 33 and to apply hair dye or the like. The virtual surface is usually a flat surface, but when the applicator of the present invention is for hair, it may be a cylindrical side surface or a spherical surface having a center far above the applicator. In particular, selecting an appropriate spherical surface is preferable because it approximates the shape of the user's head. However, even if the virtual surface is a flat surface, it can be used practically without any problem. The aforementioned pivot bearing 23 is provided in front of the annular body. On the rear side of the annular body, a bearing 24 is provided to which a hinge structure (pivot shaft) 41 of the lock member 4 is pivotally fitted. As shown in FIG. 19, notches are provided so that both the shaft 13 and the shaft 41 can be fitted. Further, grooves 25 and 26 for inserting the seal member 6 can be provided above and below the peripheral edge of the annular comb body 2. If the sealing member 6 is fitted into the groove 26 on the lower side, the sealing can be performed by contacting with the upper surface of the accommodating portion fixing ring 12 of the main body 1 described above. If the sealing member 6 is fitted in the upper groove 25, it can be in contact with the lower side surface of the applicator lid 5 to be described later, and sealing can be performed.

The lock member 4 has a shape as shown in FIG.
The pivot shaft 41 fitted into the bearing 22 behind the annular comb body 2 described above, and the lock hole 43 into which the convex portion 15 behind the housing fixing ring 12 fits downward from there. It consists of a lock arm 42 that bends and holds the bottom of the housing 3 and a knob 44.

The seal member 6 is an annular body having a substantially rectangular shape and a U-shaped cross section, as shown in FIGS. This member is particularly necessary for preventing evaporation when the solvent contained in the coating liquid impregnated in the application body 31 is likely to evaporate, but is not necessary if it is difficult to evaporate. . The seal member 6 is effective for preventing leakage of the coating liquid.

As shown in FIG. 7, the applicator lid 5 is a box with a bottom whose bottom is opened in a substantially rectangular shape. In this embodiment, the opening peripheral portion of the applicator lid 5 is provided with a seal portion 51 with which the seal member 6 abuts, an edge portion 52 with which the peripheral convex portion 27 of the annular comb portion 2 abuts, and a peripheral convex portion. 27 is sandwiched from both side surfaces, and is provided with a sandwiching portion 55 that performs loose fitting with the protrusion 53 and the undercut portion 54. Since the comb teeth extend obliquely upward and toward the center line, the wall portion 56 and the ceiling portion 57 are formed in a substantially roof shape in accordance with this. This member is also particularly necessary for preventing evaporation when the solvent contained in the coating liquid impregnated in the application body 31 is easily evaporated, but is not necessary if it is difficult to evaporate. . The applicator lid 5 is also effective for preventing contamination of fingers and the like by the application liquid.

Hereinafter, the application body cartridge 3 </ b> A including the container 3 will be described.
The applicator cartridge 3A has a structure as shown in FIGS. 8 (a) to 8 (d).
FIG. 8A is a front view of the application cartridge 3A, and FIG. 8B is a side view thereof. FIG. 8C is a transverse sectional view taken along the line BB in FIG. 8B, and FIG. 8D is a longitudinal sectional view taken along the line A-A in FIG. In the present embodiment, the container 32 that is a box with a bottom, the application part 31 that is accommodated in the accommodation part, the lid 33 that covers the opening of the accommodation body 32, and the application body that fits inside the opening of the accommodation part It consists of the narrowing part 34 and the sealing member 35 for further sealing the joint part of the cover body 33 and the accommodating body 32.

The lid 33 is a box having a wall 33a and a bottom 33b as shown in FIG.
The periphery of the opening has a flange 33c, and further has a step 33d toward the inside. A flange portion 32d of the container 32 to be described later is just inserted into the step 33d. The sealing member 35 is pasted after the flange 33c and the flange portion 32e of the container 32 are inserted flush with each other.

The container 32 is a box having a wall 32a and a bottom 32b as shown in FIG. An undercut portion 32c and a concave portion 32d are provided inside the opening for fitting the application body restricting portion 34, and a flange 32e is provided on the outer periphery of the wall portion 32a on the entire circumference in the front-rear and left-right directions.

The application body squeezing part 34 includes an undercut part 34a fitted to the undercut part 32c of the container 32 and a convex part 34b fitted to the concave part 32d of the container 32 as shown in FIG. It is a substantially rectangular annular member. The application body squeezing part 34 has a role of preventing the application part 31 from dropping from the container 32, but also has a role of changing a capillary force of a part of the application body, which will be described later. As shown in FIG. 8D, when a porous body is employed for the application portion 31 and the application body restricting portion 34 is fitted so as to restrict the portion that becomes the protrusion 31 a of the application portion 31, the protrusion 31 a However, the capillary force is higher than that of the other application portions 31, and the application liquid easily moves to the position of the protruding portion 31a. Needless to say, this application body squeezing portion 34 is not necessarily provided when the above-described action is substituted by another means.

As shown in FIG. 12, the sealing member 35 is a substantially rectangular annular film-like member with a handle 35b. An adhesive layer 35d (not shown) is provided on one surface of the annular portion 35a other than the handle 35b, and is in close contact with the surface formed by the flange portion 32e and the flange portion 33c. The enclosed space can be sealed. A notch 35c can be provided at any location of the annular portion 35a. There is no major problem in any part of the annular part 35a, but if there is a part where the base part of the handle 35b, more preferably the annular part 35a and the handle 35b form a cut at an acute angle or a right angle, that part is preferable. When the handle 35b is pulled, the sealing member 35 is easily torn from the notch 35c, and the user can pull the sealing member 35 in a string shape, and can more easily peel the sealing member. As a result, it is very easy to separate the container 32 and the lid 33. The adhesive layer 35d is not necessarily provided if the sealing member 35 is used as an adhesive sheet or a heat sealing process is performed after the sealing member 35 is pressed.

The application part 31 is made of a material mainly made of a porous body having flexibility as described above and having a capillary force. Specific examples of the porous body include fiber bundles or open cell bodies of various materials, and can be appropriately selected in view of the material of the coating liquid to be impregnated, the container 32, and the like.

Although the application part 31 is comprised from the material which has a softness | flexibility and can deform | transform, it did not show in particular, It is possible to take various shapes. For example, the shape of the cross-sectional view as shown in FIG. 8C may be used from the beginning, a columnar material is first prepared, and it is pushed into the housing 32 while being deformed. It can also be set as the shape of sectional drawing shown in FIG.8 (c) by fitting from the top.

By the way, when the application part 31 is accommodated in the container 32, if the capillary force of the protruding part (protrusion part 31a) is set high, the application liquid impregnated in the part (hair dye, etc.) can be easily drawn and consumed. The applied liquid becomes easy to move. Therefore, the purpose can be achieved by using an open cell body having a small hole diameter only in the protruding portion 31a, or in the case of a fiber bundle, if the density of the fiber is made dense only in that portion. Alternatively, the object can be achieved by performing a physical treatment such as heating the part, or a chemical treatment such as soaking in a chemical or an organic solvent. As one of the simplest methods, the object can be achieved by covering the applying body restricting portion 34 from above the accommodating portion 32 as described above, deforming the applying portion 31, and compressing only the protruding portion 31a.

Hereinafter, the method from the opening of the cartridge to the construction of the application body of the applicator of the above embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

When not in use, as shown in FIG. 13, the housing body 32 and the lid body 33 are combined and further sealed by the sealing member 35. The handle 35b of the sealing member 35 can be lifted off and removed. As described above, if the notch 35c is provided at the base of the handle 35b, when the handle 35b is peeled off, the sealing member 35 is torn from the notch 35c, and the sealing member 35 is cut into an annular portion to form a string. The peeling of 35 is further facilitated.

When the sealing member 35 is peeled off, as shown in FIG. 14, the housing body 32 becomes a cartridge body that is inserted flush with the lid body 33.

As shown in FIG. 15, when the lid 33 is removed, the housing part 3 from which the protruding part 31 a of the application part 31 deformed by the application body restricting part 34 protrudes is separated.

As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the separated accommodating portion 3 can be inserted in a place where the main body 1 and the lock member 4 are largely opened around the annular comb portion 2. Here, the applicator lid 5 is mounted, but it may not be mounted if there is no concern about contamination by the hair coloring material of the applicator protrusion 31a.

As shown in FIG. 18, the main body 1 is pivoted rearward, and the accommodating portion 3 is sandwiched so that the convex portion 15 contacts the lower portion of the bearing 24. Then, when the knob 44 is pivoted to the lower side of the bottom 33b of the storage unit 3 and the storage unit fixing ring 12 and the storage unit 3 are held by the lock arm 42, the operation is completed.

The hair applicator and replacement cartridge body according to the present invention are provided with a hair dye impregnated in an application body while combing hair (hair including humans and other pet animals) with a series of comb bodies provided in the applicator body. When applying, the coating solution does not touch the scalp directly, so that the coating property can be sufficiently secured, and a relatively large amount of coating solution can be applied to a large amount of hair. Since it is easy to attach and detach the replacement cartridge, the industrial applicability is high.
