  When the horizontal width of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base 60 and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 are inequality (D / 2 <H If the skin surface is washed with the brush bundle 61, the strength of the waist of the brush shaft portion 76 when the skin surface is washed can be reduced, so that the brush tip portion 77 or the brush shaft portion 76 with respect to the facial skin The touch feeling can be made soft and smooth. Furthermore, a lot of bubbles are included in the vertically long brush bundle 61 so that the contact between the brush tip portion 77 or the brush shaft portion 76 and the skin surface is smooth, thereby preventing the skin surface from being damaged during cleaning.

  When the horizontal width of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base 60 and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 are inequality (D <H). If it is set so as to satisfy the above, the projecting dimension H of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 can be further increased. Thereby, the touch feeling with respect to the skin surface of the brush tip part 77 or the brush shaft part 76 can be made softer and smoother, and more bubbles are included in the brush bundle 61 that is vertically long, so that the brush tip part 77 or the contact between the brush shaft 76 and the skin surface can be made smooth.

  When the width of the brush base 60 is D and the width at the upper end of the brush shaft portion 76 is D1, the width D of the brush base 60 and the width D1 of the brush shaft portion 76 satisfy the inequality (D <D1). With this setting, the brush shaft 76 can be formed in an inverted truncated cone shape, and the diameter near the boundary between the brush shaft 76 and the brush tip 77 can be increased. Therefore, the cleaning effect can be improved by increasing the peripheral speed in the vicinity of the boundary during cleaning.

The foaming container 1 includes a foam generating unit 4 that is circular in plan view and opens upward, a stand 5 that supports the foam generating unit 4, and a holder 3 that is continuously formed at the upper rear part of the foam generating unit 4. It consists of a curry pot-shaped plastic molded product. As will be described later, the agitator 2 also serves as a beauty tool with a brush that cleans or massages the skin.

  The holder 3 is formed in a housing shape having a U-shaped cross section by a holder bottom wall 8 that is smoothly continuous and a pair of holder side walls 9 that are continuously extended upward from the holder bottom wall 8. The holder bottom wall 8 and the holder side wall 9 are inclined downward from the rear end toward the bubble generating unit 4, and a brush body 20 described later is suspended and supported on the lower surface side of the rear end of the holder bottom wall 8. A round shaft-shaped brush support 10 projects downward. In a state where the main body case 21 of the stirring body 2 is mounted on the holder 3 and held in the stirring posture, the lower half peripheral surface of the main body case 21 is firmly supported by the holder bottom wall 8 and the holder side wall 9. Therefore, the rotational reaction force acting on the main body case 21 at the time of foaming can be received by the holder side wall 9 and the stirring body 2 can be supported in a stable state by the holder 3.

  As shown in FIG. 3, an inverted V-shaped partition wall 11 is formed between the internal space of the holder 3 and the internal space of the foam generating unit 4 to divide both spaces in the front and rear directions. A communication groove 12 that communicates with the space is formed to be recessed in a state orthogonal to the partition wall 11. Of the partition walls 11 facing the inner space of the holder 3, the inclined wall surrounding the communication groove 12 functions as a restricting portion 13 for receiving the stirring body 2 attached to the holder 3. The restricting portion 13 is located at the inclined lower end of the internal space of the holder 3. The internal space of the holder 3 and the internal space of the foam generation unit 4 that are divided forward and backward by the partition wall 11 communicate with each other below the upper opening surface of the foam generation unit 4. A drainage port 14 is formed in a vertically penetrating manner at the intersection of the partition wall 11 and the holder bottom wall 8, that is, at the lowest sloped lower end of the inner space of the holder 3. The liquid that has flowed down into 3 is discharged from the previous drain port 14.

  The foam generating unit 4 is configured in a container shape opened upward by a vessel bottom wall 15 and a vessel peripheral wall (peripheral wall) 16 continuously extending upward from the vessel bottom wall 15. Bubbling ribs 17 are provided at a plurality of locations on the front circumferential surface of the peripheral wall 16 facing the wall 11 so as to apply a strong pressure to the brush body 20 and apply a strong pressure to the foaming element with the pressure. ing. In this example, continuous-wave-type foaming ribs 17 were formed from the opening edge of the peripheral wall 16 to the bottom wall 15 at six locations on the front peripheral surface of the peripheral wall 16. A portion extending from the vessel bottom wall 15 to the vessel surrounding wall 16 where the foaming ribs 17 are formed functions as a foaming portion F that generates bubbles in cooperation with a brush bundle 61 described later. In addition, the second half peripheral surface of the container surrounding wall 16 facing the foaming rib 17 is formed by a smooth two-dimensional plane. As described above, the foaming rib 17 is formed with a chevron-shaped rib whose cross section is continuous in the vertical direction, but may be formed with a chevron-shaped cross section that is intermittent in the vertical direction.

  The stand 5 is continuously extended from the lower part of the foam generating unit 4 to the lower part of the holder 3 and is formed in an elliptical plate shape that is long in the front and rear, and the wall surface of the stand 5 that faces the drainage port 14 described above. In addition, a circular cover storage portion 18 for storing and storing a decorative cover 80 described later is provided (see FIG. 1). Note that the rear end of the elliptical stand 5 is located directly below the brush support 10. Thus, by forming the stand 5 long in the front-rear direction from the lower part of the foam generating unit 4 to the lower part of the holder 3, the foaming container 1 and the stirring body 2 attached to the holder 3 can be supported in a stable state. The overall impression of the stand can be elegant and simple.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the stirrer 2 includes a brush body 20 that stirs the foam element accommodated in the foam generation unit 4, a main body case 21 that is vertically long to support the brush body 20, and the interior of the main body case 21. And a brush driving structure for driving the brush body 20. The main body case 21 also serves as a grip, an upper half upper case 22, a bottomed cylindrical lower case 23 that is attached to and detached from the upper case 22, and an end cover 24 that is fixed to the upper end of the upper case 22 It consists of A switch recess 25 is formed in the right side surface of the upper case 22, and a main switch (switch) 26 for switching a power supply state to the motor 28 is provided below the switch recess 25.

  As shown in FIG. 4, an inner frame 27 is accommodated in the main body case 21, and the motor 28, the battery 29, the vibration generating structure, and the rotational power of the motor 28 are output to the inner frame 27 in a decelerated state. The transmission structure is built in. The brush drive structure includes a motor 28, a transmission structure, and a vibration generating structure. The brush rotation drive structure includes a motor 28 and a transmission structure. As shown in FIG. 5, the motor 28 is disposed at a position offset from the central axis Q in the vertical direction of the main body case 21 toward the shoulder 34. Reference numeral 30 denotes an LED lamp that emits light according to the operation mode of the stirring member 2. Although not shown, a control board for controlling the driving state of the motor 28 and the first and second vibration motors 51 and 52 is disposed inside the upper case 22 facing the switch recess 25. The control board is fixed to the inner frame 27.

  The upper case 22 is formed in an elliptic cylinder shape that is long in the front-rear direction, and the major axis dimension of the ellipse at the upper end of the case is set to be larger than the major axis dimension of the ellipse at the lower end of the case. It is formed in a shape. As shown in FIG. 6, the end cover 24 is fastened with a screw 32 to a seal lid 43 described later in a state of closing the upper opening of the upper case 22, and a boss wall 33 for connecting the brush body 20 to the upper surface thereof is expanded. A crescent-shaped shoulder 34 is projected forward along the lower front edge of the boss wall 33. As shown in FIG. 1, in the state where the main body case 21 is mounted on the holder 3 and held in the stirring posture, the peripheral surface of the main body case 21 is received and supported by the holder bottom wall 8 and the holder side wall 9 and at the same time The portion 34 is received and positioned by the previous restricting portion 13. Thus, by positioning the stirring body 2 attached to the holder 3 with respect to the foam generating part 4, the elastic deformation amount of the brush bundle 61 in contact with the bottom wall 15 and the peripheral wall 16 of the foaming part F can be reduced. It is always constant and uniform. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the brush bundle 61 from being excessively deformed and deteriorated in a state where the stirring body 2 is mounted on the holder 3. Most of the weight of the stirring member 2 in the mounted state is received by the restricting portion 13 joined to the shoulder portion 34.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the grip free end of the main body case 21 protrudes from the protruding end (rear end) of the holder 3 in a state where the main body case 21 is attached to the holder 3 and held in the stirring posture. Specifically, when the length in the central axis Q direction of the main body case 21 supported by the holder 3 is W1, and the length in the central axis Q direction of the grip free end protruding from the protruding end of the holder 3 is W2. The holder 3 and the body case 21 are formed so as to satisfy the inequality (W1> W2). When the center of gravity G of the stirring member 2 is in the vicinity of the main switch 26, the grip free end protrudes from the protruding end of the holder 3 by the horizontal distance H2, and the center of gravity G extends from the protruding end of the holder 3 by the horizontal distance H1. Only the position close to the brush body 20 is located. The relationship between the horizontal distance H1 and the horizontal distance H2 is set so as to satisfy the inequality (H1> H2). In this way, most of the main body case 21 is held by the holder 3, and the stirring center 2 mounted on the holder 3 is positioned by placing the center of gravity G of the stirring body 2 closer to the bubble generating unit 4 than the protruding end of the holder 3. The body 2 can be supported in a stable state by the holder 3. Further, even when a rotational reaction force acts on the main body case 21 at the time of foaming, the main body case 21 is prevented from tilting in a direction in which the brush body 20 floats away from the bottom wall 15 of the foam generating unit 4, and the stirring body 2 can be kept in a stirring posture in a stable state.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the rotational power of the motor 28 is reduced by a transmission structure comprising a driving gear 35 fixed to the output shaft, a first reduction gear 36, a second reduction gear 37, and a final gear 38. And output from the drive shaft 39 fixed to the final gear 38. The first reduction gear 36 and the second reduction gear 37 are integrally provided with a large-diameter gear and a small-diameter gear, respectively, and are rotatably supported by the first intermediate shaft 40 and the second intermediate shaft 41. The first intermediate shaft 40 is pivotally supported by an inner frame 27 and a gear frame 42 fixed to the upper end of the frame 27, and the second intermediate shaft 41 has a gear frame 42 and an upper opening of the upper case 22. It is pivotally supported by a sealing lid 43 that closes. The drive shaft 39 is pivotally supported by a bearing 44 assembled to the seal lid 43, and an upper portion thereof is exposed in a connection hole 45 provided at the center of the boss wall 33. As shown in FIG. 11, a driving piece 46 having a hexagonal cross section is fixed to the upper end of the driving shaft 39. The base end of the drive shaft 39 is sealed with a waterproof seal 47 attached to the seal lid 43, and the joint surface between the seal lid 43 and the upper case 22 is sealed with an O-ring. Accordingly, the cleaning agent, foam, or water does not enter the seal lid 43 from the connection hole 45. The gear frame 42 and the seal lid 43 are fastened to the upper case 22 with a plurality of screws 48.

  The vibration generating structure includes a first vibration motor 51 having a rotation axis parallel to the central axis Q of the main body case 21, and a second vibration motor 52 having a rotation axis orthogonal to the central axis Q of the main body case 21. Yes. The first vibration motor 51 generates vibrations around the axis parallel to the central axis Q including the front-rear direction of the main body case 21, and the second vibration motor 52 includes a central axis including the vertical direction of the main body case 21. Vibrations in all directions around an axis perpendicular to Q are generated. The first vibration motor 51 includes a cylinder type motor 53 and an eccentric weight 54, and the second vibration motor 52 includes a coin type motor 55 and an eccentric weight 56 enclosed in a disk-shaped case. Has been. In this way, when the vibration generating structure is configured by the first vibration motor 51 and the second vibration motor 52 that generate vibrations in different directions orthogonal to each other, when both vibration motors 51 and 52 are driven at the same time, the rotation is performed. Complex vibrations can be applied to the body 20. Further, when only the first vibration motor 51 is driven, vibrations in the entire circumferential direction around an axis parallel to the central axis Q including the front-rear direction can be applied to the brush body 20. That is, since the first vibration motor 51 can vibrate the brush bundle 61 in a direction orthogonal to the protruding direction of the brush bundle 61, the tip of the brush hair of the brush bundle 61 is pressed against the skin surface to be cleaned. Even if the vibration part 51 is driven in a state, the brush hair of the brush bundle 61 does not vibrate toward the skin surface, so that damage to the skin surface is alleviated. When only the second vibration motor 52 is driven, vibrations in the entire circumferential direction around the axis orthogonal to the central axis Q including the vertical direction can be applied to the brush body 20. Therefore, for example, the cleaning with the brush body 20 or the massage function can be more effectively exhibited. When cleaning is performed by bringing the brush body 20 into contact with the skin surface, dirt, cosmetics and the like entering the pores due to vibration can be washed away without damaging the skin. The second vibration motor 52 can be omitted.

The adjustment ring 63 is slid to the normal position (the state shown in FIG. 7) covering the peripheral surface of the brush support 62 and close to the upper end of the brush support 62 to reduce the diameter of the brush bundle 61 in the reduced diameter position ( The slide operation can be performed in the state shown in FIG. By narrowing the middle part of the brush bundle 61, the periphery of the nostril can be carefully cleaned. Further, when the middle part is squeezed, the protruding size of the hair bundle 61 is shortened by the adjustment ring 63, so that the elastic reaction force of the hair bundle 61 is increased, and the hair bundle 61 is brought into strong contact with the skin surface to perform washing and massage. Can do. The joint body 64 also serves as a mounting structure 93 for engaging and mounting the brush body 20 to the brush support 10.

  In order to guide the adjustment ring 63 so that it can only slide up and down, a flat slide surface 65 is provided on each of the opposed peripheral surfaces of the brush support 62 and the adjustment ring 63 as shown in FIG. 66 and a slide groove 67 are provided. Further, in order to hold the adjustment ring 63 in the normal position and the reduced diameter position, the upper and lower surfaces of the brush support 62 at a position shifted by 90 degrees from the slide surface 65 and the inner peripheral surface of the adjustment ring 63 are arranged. Engaging ribs 68 and 69 are provided at the lower end. As shown in FIG. 11, the joint body 64 is formed in a hexagonal cylindrical shape by alternately arranging three passive walls 70 that receive rotational force and three elastic arms 71 that engage with the drive piece 46. Engagement pieces 72 project from the lower end of the inner surface of each elastic arm 71.

  The brush bundle 61 is configured by bundling a group of synthetic fibers having a fiber diameter of 50 to 70 μm in a circular cross section and fixing a lower portion thereof with a holding ring 75 made of a metal plate.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 17, the recess 78 is formed by collecting the tips of each brush hair. In other words, the recess 78 is formed on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61. That is, since the brush bundle 61 exists also under the recessed part 78, since the bubble can be included also in the brush bundle 61 part, many bubbles can be included in the brush bundle 61. FIG. As shown in FIG. 17, the bottom wall 78a of the recess 78 is formed in a partially spherical shape with an inner recess, and the side wall 78b of the recess 78 is formed with an inner recess curved surface on the entire periphery. . Furthermore, the diameter dimension of the recessed part 78 is comprised so that it may become wide toward the opening part 78c from the bottom wall 78a. Thus, the recessed part 78 in a present Example is formed in the dome shape of the inner dent which is a planar view circular. The arrows in FIG. 16 indicate the rotation direction of the brush body 20 that rotates about the rotation center axis P.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 17, the distance from the opening 78c of the recess 78 to the deepest portion 78aa of the bottom wall 78a is larger than the dimension H2 from the protruding base end 61a of the brush bundle 61 protruding from the brush base 60 to the bottom wall 78a. The dimension H1 is set small. As described above, the brush bundle 61 is formed in a concave shape in the rod-shaped brush shaft portion 76, the externally curved brush tip portion 77 formed at the tip of the brush shaft portion 76, and the central portion of the brush tip portion 77. And a recess 78. Further, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 17, the deepest portion 78 aa of the bottom wall 78 a of the concave portion 78 includes a boundary line 77 a between the brush tip portion 77 with a curved outer shape and the rod-shaped brush shaft portion 76, and the concave portion 78. It is located between the opening 78c. Further, the curvature of the curved surface of the recess 78 is set larger than the curvature of the curved surface of the brush tip 77.

  It is preferable to set the dimensional relationship of each part of the brush base 60 and the brush bundle 61 constituting the brush body 20 as described below. As shown in FIG. 7, when the diameter (horizontal width) of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle are as follows. , Inequality (D / 2 <H) is set to be satisfied. As will be described later, when face washing is performed, washing is performed with the axial peripheral surface of the brush shaft portion 76 applied to the face skin. As described above, the protrusion dimension H of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is set as follows. If it is increased, the strength of the waist of the brush shaft portion 76 when the face skin is washed with the brush bundle 61 can be reduced, so that the touch feeling of the brush shaft portion 76 with respect to the face skin can be made soft and smooth. Moreover, it is possible to prevent the face skin from being damaged by making the contact between the brush shaft portion 76 and the face skin smooth by including more bubbles in the vertically long brush bundle 61.

  Further, when the horizontal width of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base 60 and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 are inequality (D < H) is set so as to satisfy. According to such a brush body 20, the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 can be further increased. Therefore, the contact feeling of the brush shaft portion 76 with respect to the facial skin can be further softened and smooth, and more bubbles are included in the brush bundle 61 that is vertically long so that the contact between the brush shaft portion 76 and the facial skin is achieved. Can be made smooth.

  Regarding the brush bundle 61, when the diameter (width) of the brush base 60 is D and the diameter (width) at the upper end of the brush shaft portion 76 is D1, the diameter (width) D of the brush base 60 and the brush shaft portion 76 are defined. Is set so that the inequality (D <D1) is satisfied. As described above, the brush shaft portion 76 is formed in an inverted truncated cone shape, and the diameter near the boundary between the brush shaft portion 76 and the brush tip portion 77 is increased. Can be generated automatically. Further, since the brush tip portion 77 is formed in a partial spherical shape, the contact area of the vessel bottom wall 15 and the vessel surrounding wall 16 with the brush tip portion 77 at the time of foaming can be increased to generate bubbles more effectively. .

  As shown in FIG. 6, the brush body 20 configured as described above is used by connecting the joint body 64 of the brush base 60 to the drive piece 46 and integrating the brush body 20 with the main body case 21. In a state where the brush body 20 is connected to the drive shaft 39, the engagement piece 72 of each elastic arm 71 is engaged with the lower end surface of the drive piece 46 to prevent the brush body 20 from being separated from the drive shaft 39. ing. Unlike the above, the brush body 20 can be used alone with the brush base 20 removed from the drive shaft 39 and the brush base 60 held with one hand. Thus, in order to improve the appearance of the brush body 20 when used alone, and to protect the joint body 64 protruding from the lower surface of the brush base 60, the decorative cover 80 is provided on the lower surface of the brush base 60. Is attached detachably.

  As described above, when the brush body 20 of the stirring body 2 is detachably connected to the main body case 21, the brush body 20 can be used alone with the brush body 20 removed from the main body case 21. Therefore, the foam scooped with the brush body 20 can be carefully applied to the skin surface. When applying the foam, it is only necessary to hold the brush body 20 that is lighter than the main body case 21, so that the foam can be applied without being lifted. Also, by stroking the brush body 20 in contact with the skin surface, the skin surface can be actively cleaned in a cleaning state that suits the user's preference, and it can be lifted in the same way as when foam is applied. Can clean the skin without any problems. No power is consumed when washing the skin. In addition, when the brush body 20 is washed with water, there is also an advantage that bubbles can be surely washed out by carefully washing every corner of the brush body 20.

  In FIG. 7, a decorative cover 80 includes a circular container-shaped cover main body 81 that opens upward, a mounting portion 82 provided at the center of the inner surface of the cover main body 81, and a tongue-like finger-hanging piece 83 that is formed to project from the periphery of the opening. It consists of a plastic molded product that is integrated with The mounting portion 82 is formed in a hexagonal cylindrical shape corresponding to the joint body 64 of the brush support body 62, and the decorative cover 80 is attached to the brush support body 62 by fitting the mounting portion 82 to the joint body 64. And the cover body 81 can cover the outer surface of the joint body 64 (mounting structure 93). The brush body 20 can be used by holding the brush base 60 in this state with one hand.

  As described above, when the brush body 20 is removed from the main body case 21 and the outer surface of the mounting structure 93 is covered with the decorative cover 80, the appearance when the brush body 20 is separated from the main body case 21 and used is the decorative cover. 80 can be arranged. Further, since the mounting structure 93 is covered with the decorative cover 80, it is possible to prevent fingers from hitting the mounting structure 93 when the brush body 20 is used while holding the brush base 60 with one hand. Furthermore, it is possible to prevent foreign matter from adhering to the joint body 64 that also serves as the mounting structure 93, and to always properly connect the joint body 64 and the drive piece 46.

  Since the finger-hanging piece 83 in a state where the decorative cover 80 is attached to the brush body 20 protrudes outward from the joint surface between the brush base 60 and the decorative cover 80, the decorative cover is in a state where the fingertip is put on the finger-hanging piece 83. By removing and operating 80, the decorative cover 80 can be easily separated from the brush support 62. In addition, it is possible to prevent the finger from slipping by receiving the finger holding the brush base 60 at the periphery of the finger hook piece 83. A hanging hole 84 is formed in the finger hanging piece 83. The cover body 81 of the decorative cover 80 also serves as a measurement container for foaming liquid such as water or hot water, and a measurement display is provided on the inner surface thereof. Specifically, the measuring container in this embodiment is a hexagonal cylindrical mounting portion 82, and a weighing display is printed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical wall, or a concave rib shape or a convex rib shape formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical wall. The weighing display is formed. Therefore, the periphery of the weighing display can be protected by being covered with the cover body 81. In addition, when it is necessary to measure more water or hot water, the cover main body 81 can be used as a measuring container, or both the cover main body 81 and the mounting portion 82 can be used as measuring containers.

  The details of the foaming action by the foaming container 1 and the stirring body 2 and the details of the skin cleaning action by the brush body 20 will be described below in the case of performing face washing using the foaming device configured as described above. First, the brush body 20 is connected to the drive shaft 39, an appropriate amount of a cream-like cleansing agent is attached to the recess 78, and the body case 21 is attached to the holder 3 as shown in FIG. 20 is impregnated with an appropriate amount of water or hot water. At this time, by measuring water or hot water with the cover main body 81 of the decorative cover 80, the brush body 20 can contain water or hot water for the cleaning agent without excess or deficiency. The decorative cover 80 after the water supply is stored and stored in the cover storage portion 18 with the opening surface thereof facing upward. The decorative cover 80 in this state also serves as a water receiver 94 that receives the water droplets discharged from the drain port 14 and falling. In a state where the main body case 21 is mounted on the holder 3, the motor 28 is located at a position offset from the central axis Q of the main body case 21 toward the shoulder 34. Therefore, the center of gravity of the main body case 21 supported by the holder 3 is positioned on the side close to the holder bottom wall 8 so that the entire stirring body 2 can be supported in a stable state. In the case of the brush body 20 that does not include the concave portion 78, it is preferable that the cleaning agent is attached to the brush tip portion 77 on the partial spherical surface.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the main body case 21 attached to the holder 3 is positioned in an obliquely downward recumbent posture with its shoulder portion 34 received by the restricting portion 13. Therefore, the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20 is inclined downward from the outer peripheral side of the foam generating unit 4 toward the container center. As described above, in a state in which the main body case 21 is mounted on the holder 3, most of the main body case 21 is held by the holder 3, and the center of gravity G of the stirring body 2 is closer to the bubble generating unit 4 than the protruding end of the holder 3. Therefore, the stirring body 2 attached to the holder 3 can be supported by the holder 3 in a stable state. Further, in a state where the main body case 21 is in a stirring posture, the brush bundle 61 comes into contact with the foaming portion F extending from the vessel bottom wall 15 to the vessel surrounding wall 16, and the tip thereof is elastically deformed by a certain amount. When the main switch 26 is turned on in this state, as shown in FIG. 12, the motor 28 is activated and the rotational power is decelerated by the transmission structure and then transmitted to the brush body 20. The motor 28 at this time is set to rotate at a low speed (5000 rpm), and maintains that state until one minute has elapsed since the motor 28 was started. When the low-speed rotation time reaches 1 minute, the motor 28 is increased in speed and rotated at a high speed (10000 rpm). Further, when 1 minute has passed since the transition to the high speed rotation mode, the motor 28 is stopped and the foaming mode is terminated. The drive shaft 39 and the brush body 20 are driven at a rotational speed of 150 rpm when the motor 28 is driven at a low speed, and the drive shaft 39 and the brush body 20 are driven at a rotational speed when the motor 28 is driven at a high speed. The number is 300 rpm. Since the motor 28 is stopped and the foaming is finished when a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the foaming, there is also an advantage that other operations such as skin surface preparation can be performed in parallel. When the drive rotation speed of the motor 28 is increased stepwise from the low speed rotation to the high speed rotation in the foaming mode, the volume and frequency characteristics of the drive sound change as the drive rotation speed of the motor 28 increases. Accordingly, the user can clearly grasp the progress of the foaming work only by listening to the driving sound. Further, when the motor 28 is rotated at a low speed immediately after the start of the foaming mode, the cleaning agent attached to the brush body 20 and the water contained in the brush body 20 are well blended, so that the cleaning agent and water are removed from the brush body. The bubbles can be uniformly generated by being included in 20. Furthermore, it is possible to prevent the generated bubbles from being splashed by the centrifugal force of the brush body 20. When the motor 28 is increased in stages, more air can be taken in than when rotating at a low speed, and a foam lump can be generated effectively. At the same time, the foam lump is repeatedly stirred by the brush body 20, and the generated foam lather is generated. The diameter can be reduced and the texture can be refined to optimize the foam properties.

  When the foaming mode ends, the main body case 21 is removed from the holder 3. At this time, as shown in FIG. 10, the grip free end side of the main body case 21 attached to the holder 3 protrudes largely obliquely backward from the protruding end of the holder 3, so that the main body with the protruding case portion as a clue. The case 21 can be easily removed from the holder 3. The brush bundle 61 of the brush body 20 in a state separated from the holder 3 contains a large amount of generated bubbles. In particular, the brush shaft portion 76 swells with a lot of bubbles, and moreover, bubbles having a fine texture are attached to the peripheral surfaces of the brush shaft portion 76 and the brush tip portion 77. The concave portion 78 also retains a fine elastic foam. Therefore, after gripping the main body case 21 also serving as a grip and separating the stirring body 2 from the holder 3, excess foam is crushed at the opening edge of the peripheral wall 16 to adjust the outer shape of the brush body 20. The retained foam can be applied directly to the skin surface such as the face skin. When the remaining amount of foam contained in the brush body 20 decreases, the foam body 4 is smeared with the brush body 20 and applied to the facial skin such as the cheek, forehead, chin, and nose.

  In the above-described state, the brush peripheral surface of the brush shaft 76 (the peripheral surface of the brush bundle 61) or the brush front end portion 77 which is the front end surface of the brush bundle 61 is applied to the skin surface such as the facial skin to be cleaned. When the main switch 26 is turned on once, the first vibration motor 51 is activated, and the main body case 21 and the brush body 20 are vibrated in the entire peripheral direction including the front and rear to shift to the skin cleaning (massage) mode. . In addition, when the main switch 26 is turned on twice in a short time, the second vibration motor 52 is driven to vibrate the main body case 21 and the brush body 20 in the entire peripheral direction including the upper and lower sides, and enter the skin cleaning (massage) mode. Transition. Further, if the main switch 26 is long-pressed, the motor 28 is driven again to rotate the brush body 20 around the rotation center axis P, and the skin cleaning (massage) mode by the rotation of the brush body 20 can be entered. . As described above, the three skin cleaning (massage) modes are controlled so that the motors 51, 52, and 28 are stopped and the skin cleaning mode is automatically ended after a certain period of time has passed. Further, when the beauty tool is in an OFF state, the skin cleaning (massage) mode by the rotation of the brush body 20 is controlled whenever the main switch 26 is pressed for a long time. In any skin cleaning mode, sebum adhering to the skin surface such as facial skin, old keratin, dirt or cosmetics entering the pores can be washed away. When two minutes have elapsed since the start of the skin cleaning mode, the first vibration motor 51 or the second vibration motor 52 or the motor 28 stops and the skin cleaning mode ends. Cleaning is performed with the brush tip 77 or the brush shaft 76. Both the first vibration motor 51 and the second vibration motor 52 generate sonic vibration. Finally, the main body case 21 is reattached to the holder 3, the bubbles adhering to the skin surface are washed away using water or hot water, and the skin is applied with a lotion or the like with the moisture removed. Finish face washing. At the time of washing, the skin surface such as the facial skin can be massaged by the vibration action of the brush body 20 or the sliding movement of the brush body 20, so that blood circulation can be promoted. Of course, the massage can be mainly performed by vibration of the brush body 20 or sliding by rotation of the brush body 20. In the case of the skin cleaning (massage) mode by the rotation of the brush body 20, the rotation speed of the brush body 20 is rotationally driven at a rotation speed smaller than the rotation speed of the brush body 20 in the foaming mode. Thereby, the irritation | stimulation with respect to a skin surface can be made small. If the stimulus is reduced depending on the material and thickness of the brush bundle 61, the rotation speed may be controlled to be increased to improve the cleaning (massage) effect. If it is necessary to clean the skin with a stronger stimulus, a separate switch is provided that allows the brush body 20 to vibrate with an oscillating structure and that the skin 20 can be cleaned while the brush body 20 is rotationally driven. Can be provided.

  When the brush bundle 61 is provided on the brush base 60, when the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 is formed as a flat surface or an externally curved surface, when the brush body 20 including the brush bundle 61 is rotated around the rotation center axis P, The central portion including the rotation center of the brush bundle 61 is twisted during rotation driving to increase the rigidity. If the rigidity increases, the central portion of the brush bundle 61 becomes a rod shape, and when the tip of the brush is applied to the skin to perform rotational cleaning or rotational massage, the skin may be excessively pressed and damaged. Therefore, the brush body 20 is constituted by a brush base 60 supported by the main body case 21 and a brush bundle 61 supported by the brush base 60, and a concave portion 78 is formed in the central portion including the rotation center of the tip surface of the brush bundle 61. Formed. When the concave portion 78 is provided in the central portion of the front end surface of the brush bundle 61, when the brush body 20 is rotationally driven to clean or massage the skin with the front end surface of the brush bundle 61, the rotation center axis of the brush bundle 61 Since it can prevent that the hair | bristle bundle located in the center part containing P becomes a rod shape, the damage to skin can be suppressed.

  The recess 78 includes a bottom wall 78 a and a side wall 78 b surrounding the bottom wall 78 a in the entire periphery, and the recess 78 is formed on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61. Thereby, since the bubble lump can be held in the recess 78 and the bubble can be drawn out therefrom, the sliding friction on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 can be reduced. Therefore, when the brush body 20 is driven to rotate and the skin is cleaned or massaged by the tip surface of the brush bundle 61, damage to the skin can be suppressed. Moreover, since the brush bundle 61 exists also under the recessed part 78, since the bubble can be included also in the brush bundle 61 part, many bubbles can be included in the brush bundle 61. FIG.

  If the side wall 78b of the recess 78 is formed of an indented curved surface, the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 in the recess 78 is unlikely to hit the skin even if the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 is pressed against the skin. Accordingly, when the brush body 20 is driven to rotate and the skin is cleaned or massaged by the front end surface of the brush bundle 61, the brush bundle 61 can be prevented from being kinked into a rod shape, and the front end surface of the brush bundle 61 formed into a rod shape. Can prevent skin damage.

  If the diameter dimension of the recessed part 78 becomes large toward the opening part 78c from the bottom wall 78a, the foam lump in the recessed part 78 can be pushed up with centrifugal force, and can be supplied to a skin surface. Therefore, when the brush body 20 is rotationally driven to clean or massage the skin with the tip surface of the brush bundle 61, sliding friction on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 can be reduced, and damage to the skin can be suppressed. .

  When the concave portion 78 is formed in a dome shape having a circular shape in plan view, the foam lump in the concave portion 78 can be pushed up more smoothly by centrifugal force and supplied to the skin surface. Therefore, when the brush body 20 is driven to rotate and the skin is cleaned or massaged by the tip surface of the brush bundle 61, sliding friction on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61 can be reduced and damage to the skin can be suppressed. .

  If the dimension H1 from the opening 78c of the recess 78 to the bottom wall 78a is set smaller than the dimension H2 from the protruding base end 61a of the brush bundle 61 protruding from the brush base 60 to the bottom wall 78a, the brush bundle 61 in the recess 78 is set. However, since the distance from the bottom wall 78a of the recess 78 to the skin surface approaches, the bubbles in the recess 78 can be easily supplied to the skin surface. Damage to the can be suppressed.

  The brush bundle 61 includes a rod-shaped brush shaft portion 76, an outwardly curved brush tip portion 77 formed at the tip of the brush shaft portion 76, and a recess 78 formed as a recess at the center of the brush tip portion 77. If it is provided, the externally curved brush tip 77 can be fitted to the skin surface, and the skin surface can be cleaned or massaged appropriately. On the other hand, the brush shaft portion 76 can contain bubbles, and the bubbles can be supplied to the skin surface.

  When the bottom wall 78a of the concave portion 78 is located between the boundary line 77a between the brush-curved tip portion 77 and the rod-shaped brush shaft portion 76, and the opening 78c of the concave portion 78, Since the distance from the bottom wall 78a to the skin surface approaches, it becomes easy to supply the foam in the recessed part 78 to the skin surface, and this can suppress the damage to skin. When cleaning or massaging the skin, the outer-curved brush tip 77 is pressed against the skin surface and elastically deforms. At this time, the bubbles held in the recess 78 are reduced by reducing the space of the recess 78. Can be forcibly squeezed out to reduce sliding friction on the tip surface of the brush bundle 61. Thereby, damage to the skin can be suppressed.

  When the horizontal width of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base 60 and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 are inequality (D / 2 <H If the skin surface is washed with the brush bundle 61, the strength of the waist of the brush shaft portion 76 when the skin surface is washed can be reduced, so that the brush tip portion 77 or the brush shaft portion 76 with respect to the facial skin The touch feeling can be made soft and smooth. Furthermore, a lot of bubbles are included in the vertically long brush bundle 61 so that the contact between the brush tip portion 77 or the brush shaft portion 76 and the skin surface is smooth, thereby preventing the skin surface from being damaged during cleaning.

  When the horizontal width of the brush base 60 is D and the protruding dimension of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 is H, the horizontal width D of the brush base 60 and the protruding dimension H of the brush bundle 61 are inequality (D <H). If it is set so as to satisfy the above, the projecting dimension H of the brush bundle 61 from the brush base 60 can be further increased. Thereby, the touch feeling with respect to the skin surface of the brush tip part 77 or the brush shaft part 76 can be made softer and smoother, and more bubbles are included in the brush bundle 61 that is vertically long, so that the brush tip part 77 or the contact between the brush shaft 76 and the skin surface can be made smooth.

  When the width of the brush base 60 is D and the width at the upper end of the brush shaft portion 76 is D1, the width D of the brush base 60 and the width D1 of the brush shaft portion 76 satisfy the inequality (D <D1). With this setting, the brush shaft 76 can be formed in an inverted truncated cone shape, and the diameter near the boundary between the brush shaft 76 and the brush tip 77 can be increased. Therefore, the cleaning effect can be improved by increasing the peripheral speed in the vicinity of the boundary during cleaning. Further, if the curvature of the curved surface of the recess 78 is set larger than the curvature of the curved surface of the brush tip 77, the brush tip 77 is gently curved, so that the tip surface of the brush tip 77 has good skin contact. .

  Thus, the stirring body 2 removed from the foaming container 1 can be used as an electric cleaning brush that can stimulate the skin with foam and perform skin cleaning. In this case, the cleaning brush serves as a beauty tool. For example, by forming each brush tip of the brush bundle 61 in a round shape and rotating or rotating and vibrating the brush body 20 while pressing the brush tip portion against the skin, a massage brush that can promote blood circulation of the skin is obtained. it can. In this case, the massage brush becomes a beauty tool. In the present embodiment, the foaming container 1 is provided with the stand function of the stirring body (beauty device) 2, but the foaming function may be eliminated and only the stand function may be provided. A beauty brush may be constituted by the beauty tool and a stand that simply attaches and supports the beauty tool, using a cleaning brush or massage brush composed of the brush body 20 and the body case 21 as a beauty tool.

  When the cleaning is completed, the brush body 20 and the foaming container 1 removed from the main body case 21 are washed with water, and the foam adhering to the foaming container 1 and the brush body 20 is washed away and drained. Next, as shown in FIG. 13, the joint body 64 of the brush body 20 is engaged with the brush support 10 of the foaming container 1, and the brush body 20 is placed in the state where the brush bundle 61 faces downward. The brush bundle 61 is dried and stored in that state. The main body case 21 may be attached to the holder 3 or stored in a state separated from the foaming container 1. After the foaming mode is finished, when a certain time has passed, the skin cleaning mode is automatically entered, and the first vibration motor 51 and the second vibration motor 52 are started alternately (for example, every 10 seconds). The skin cleaning mode is performed, and after a predetermined time has elapsed, both the motors 51 and 52 can be stopped to automatically end the skin cleaning mode.

  In the state in which the stirrer 2 is operated in the foaming mode, the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20 is inclined downward as shown in FIG. 14, and the peripheral wall 16 with the tip of the brush bundle 61 facing the foaming part F The tip of the brush is elastically deformed upward in contact with the vessel bottom wall 15 at the same time. Further, on the vessel bottom wall 15 on the holder 3 side of the bubble generation unit 4, there is a bubble reflux wall 88 that slopes downward toward the foaming unit F continuously from the vessel bottom wall 15 in the range indicated by the arrow in FIG. 14. Is provided. Further, the brush body 20 that is in contact with the peripheral wall 16 and the bottom wall 15 facing the foaming portion F is held at the center of the left and right sides of the foam generating portion 4 and has a brush bundle 61 formed in a circular cross section. Is set to be smaller than the radius of curvature of the curved surface of the concavely curved vessel bottom wall 15, so that air is introduced between the right half circumferential surface of the brush bundle 61 and the vessel peripheral wall 16. A gap 89 is formed (see FIG. 15). A state in which a certain pressure is applied to the brush bundle 61 by rotating the brush body 20 in this state in the clockwise direction when viewed from the side facing the foaming portion F as indicated by an arrow S in FIG. Thus, the foam element can be foamed, and a part of the brush tip portion 77 and the brush shaft portion 76 can collide with the foaming rib 17 to repeatedly stir the foam mass. Therefore, since the foam bundle and the foam lump can be foamed and flowed by the brush bundle 61 while being pressurized, the foam element can be effectively foamed.

  Specifically, the brush front end 77 faces the foaming portion F and successively passes over the adjacent foaming ribs 17 while elastically deforming, while the tip of the brush bundle 61 is greatly elastically deformed, and the foaming ribs 17 are The foam bundle can be more effectively foamed while applying a strong pressure to the foamed element by moving the brush bundle 61 every time it gets over. Furthermore, while the brush bundle 61 is elastically deformed, it is possible to generate a bubble mass while taking in the surrounding air. Therefore, compared with the foam production | generation part 4 which is not equipped with the foaming rib 17, the production | generation of a foam lump and the fragmentation of a foam can be performed more effectively. Even when the foam ribs 17 are provided, the tip of the brush bundle 61 of the brush body 20 that is in contact with the peripheral wall 16 and the bottom wall 15 facing the foaming portion F is elastically deformed and held in a stirring posture. If the brush body 20 of the stirrer 2 is rotationally driven by the brush rotation drive structure, the brush body 20 can be rotationally driven in a state where a constant pressure is applied to the brush bundle 61. That is, the constant pressure means that the pressure applied to the brush bundle 61 changes in magnitude even when the foamed ribs 17 are provided, but the width of the pressure that rises and falls during the rotation is constant no matter how much the rotation time elapses. Therefore, it is understood that a constant pressure acts on the brush bundle 61 even when the foamed rib 17 is provided. Even if a plurality of dome-shaped protrusions are provided in place of the foamed ribs 17 provided in a wave shape, the brush body 20 can be rotationally driven in a state where a constant pressure is applied to the brush bundle 61 in the same manner. . When foaming manually with a foaming container and brush as in the past, the pressure during stirring is not constant, and individual foaming results are likely to vary, and depending on the user, a sufficient amount of fine foam can be foamed neatly. Is difficult.

  At this time, in the periphery of the brush on the right half side as viewed in FIG. 15, the foam adhering to the brush bundle 61 is pressed against the foaming rib 17, the peripheral wall 16 and the bottom wall 15 and shaken, and the air It is forcibly mixed. Further, in the vicinity of the brush on the left half side as viewed in FIG. 15, the generated foam lump is splashed around by the rotational force of the brush body 20 and is received by the peripheral wall 16 facing the foaming portion F. Stopped and flows down along the wall 16 to the bottom wall 15. Thus, the vessel peripheral wall 16 on the left half side functions as the bubble flow lower wall 90. At this time, in the periphery of the brush on the right half side as viewed in FIG. 15, the foam adhering to the brush bundle 61 is pressed against the foaming rib 17, the peripheral wall 16 and the bottom wall 15 and shaken, and the air It is forcibly mixed. Further, in the vicinity of the brush on the left half side as viewed in FIG. 15, the generated foam lump is splashed around by the rotational force of the brush body 20 and is received by the peripheral wall 16 facing the foaming portion F. Stopped and flows down along the wall 16 to the bottom wall 15. Thus, the vessel peripheral wall 16 on the left half side functions as the bubble flow lower wall 90. When the foamed rib 17 is formed from the vessel peripheral wall 16 to the vessel bottom wall 15, the upper half of the brush bundle 61 elastically deformed along the vessel peripheral wall 16 and elastically deformed along the vessel bottom wall 15. The direction when the brush bundle 61 gets over the foaming rib 17 can be reversed with the lower half of the brush bundle 61. Therefore, the foam lump captured at the tip of the brush bundle 61 can be rocked in a complicated manner to form a fine lather having a small bubble diameter. When the foaming ribs 17 are formed from the opening edge of the peripheral wall 16 to the bottom wall 15, all of the tips of the brush bundle 61 get over the foaming ribs 17 in an elastically deformed state, and the entire tip of the brush bundle 61 is moved over. Foam can be generated. Further, the foam that has been guided by the grooves between the foaming ribs 17 that are long in the vertical direction and the foaming ribs 17 adjacent to each other and splashed upward can be reliably returned to the brush body 20 and the foaming part F. Therefore, the foam can be repeatedly stirred to produce a fine lump having a small bubble diameter. Further, the tip of the brush bundle 61 when getting over the foaming rib 17 jumps along the uneven surface formed by the peripheral wall 16 and the foaming rib 17 between the adjacent foaming ribs 17. Since it is elastically deformed and the foam contained in the brush bundle 61 and the foam lump around the brush bundle 61 can be vigorously shaken, the foam can be generated and the foam diameter can be reduced effectively. Thus, a mousse-like foam mass can be generated efficiently. The foaming ribs 17 do not necessarily have to be rib-like protrusions that are long in the vertical direction, and a large number of large and small dome-shaped protrusions may be provided on the inner wall of the foam generating unit 4.

  In the foaming mode, since the cross-sectional shape of the vessel bottom wall 15 facing the foaming portion F is formed by a curved surface having a concave curved surface, the peripheral surface of the brush bundle 61 in contact with the foaming portion F and the vessel bottom The air around the air introduction gap 89 formed between the wall 15 and the air can be wound into the foam bundle F by the brush bundle 61. That is, by providing the air introduction gap 89, the foam lump and air generated by the brush bundle 61 can be simultaneously taken in from the air introduction gap 89 and can be wound between the brush bundle 61 and the vessel bottom wall 15. Therefore, it is possible to more effectively perform the generation of the foam mass and the fragmentation of the foam.

  Furthermore, since the radius of the brush bundle 61 formed in a circular cross section is set to be smaller than the radius of curvature of the curved surface of the concave bottom wall 15, the peripheral wall 16, the left and right peripheral surfaces of the brush bundle 61, and A free space is formed between them, and air can be efficiently wound by the bunch of brushes 61 passing through the free space. Can be produced.

  As the amount of foam generated increases, a part of the foam flows toward the bubble reflux wall 88 through the air introduction gap 89 on the right half side toward FIG. However, since the entire vessel bottom wall 15 including the bubble return wall 88 is inclined downward toward the foaming portion F, the bubble lump positioned between the brush body 20 and the bubble return wall 88 is the brush bundle 61. It flows toward the tip of the brush and is stirred again by the brush bundle 61. In this way, by repeatedly stirring the foam block with the brush bundle 61 while generating the foam, it is possible to efficiently generate a foam block having a small foam diameter and a fine texture. Therefore, compared to conventional foam generators that rotate and rotate the rotating brush at a constant speed, the foam generation and the bubble diameter are effectively reduced, and the mousse-like foam mass is more efficient. Can be generated well.

  As described above, the motor 28 is rotated at a low speed in the first half of the foaming mode, and the motor 28 is rotated at a high speed in the second half of the foaming mode. As described above, when the motor 28 is rotated at a low speed, the cleaning agent attached to the recess 78 of the brush bundle 61 and the water contained in the brush shaft portion 76 are well blended, and the cleaning agent and the water are brushed. 76 and the brush tip 77 can be evenly included to generate bubbles evenly. Further, by rotating the motor 28 at a high speed, more air can be taken in, so that a bubble mass can be generated effectively. Furthermore, a foam lump can be repeatedly stirred with the brush bundle 61, the bubble diameter of the produced | generated foam can be made small, and the texture can be made fine.

  In the first embodiment, the main switch 26 is turned on in the foaming mode to rotate the brush body 20 at low speed and high speed to perform foaming. The timer detects that a predetermined time has elapsed, and the foaming mode. The main switch 26 is turned on again to shift to the skin cleaning mode to operate the vibration generating structure, but this is not necessary. For example, when the user turns on the main switch 26 to rotate the brush body 20 at a constant speed to enter the foaming mode, the user visually confirms the foaming condition and determines that a sufficient amount of foam has been generated. Then, the stirring body 2 is removed from the holder 3 and the brush body 20 is rotationally driven, and the shaft peripheral surface (peripheral side surface of the brush bundle 61) of the brush body 20 or the front end surface of the brush bundle 61 is maintained. By applying the brush tip 77 to the skin surface such as the facial skin to be cleaned, foam lump application and skin cleaning can be performed in parallel. In that case, the timer and the vibration generating structure can be omitted. When it is determined that a sufficient amount of foam has been generated, the user operates the main switch 26 to stop the motor 28. In this state, the stirring body 2 is removed from the holder 3, and the foam is removed from the facial skin. Can be applied to. After applying the foam mass, the main switch 26 may be operated again to clean the skin with the motor 28 or the vibration generating structure activated.

(Embodiment 2) FIG. 18 shows a brush body 20 according to Embodiment 2 in which the brush structure is changed. The upper side from the broken line in the brush bundle 61 is a sectional view. Here, like the brush body of the first embodiment, the brush shaft portion 76 of the brush bundle 61 is formed in an inverted frustoconical shape, but the entire brush tip is formed by a partially spherical concave curved surface to form a concave portion 78. The point is different. In this case, the brush tip 77 is an arc edge at the upper end of the brush shaft 76. As described above, if the volume of the concave portion 78 is set large, the amount of foaming agent and foaming element retained in the concave portion 78 can be changed in various ways. Can cope with the difference. Further, at the time of foaming, the brush tip 77 is elastically deformed, and the foaming agent and foaming element held therein are wrapped. Bubbles can be generated quickly in the foaming mode. Also in this embodiment, the foam mass can be held in the recess 78. When the skin is cleaned or massaged, the brush tip 77 can be brought into contact with the skin in a linear manner to clean the skin. Also in the present embodiment, the concave portion 78 is configured such that the diameter dimension thereof becomes wider from the bottom wall 78a toward the opening 78c. Since others are the same as those of the first embodiment, the same members are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted. The same applies to the following embodiments.

Here, like the brush body of the first embodiment, the brush shaft portion 76 of the brush bundle 61 is formed in an inverted frustoconical shape, but the brush tip portion 77 is not formed in an externally curved shape but formed on a flat surface. Is different. Moreover, the shape of the recessed part 78 is also different, and the bottom wall 78a of the recessed part 78 is formed with the circular flat surface. The side wall 78b of the recess 78 is formed of an indented curved surface on the entire periphery. Also in the present embodiment, the concave portion 78 is configured such that the diameter dimension thereof becomes wider from the bottom wall 78a toward the opening 78c.

(Embodiment 4) FIG. 20 shows a brush body 20 according to Embodiment 4 in which the brush structure is changed. The upper side from the broken line in the brush bundle 61 is a sectional view. The brush shaft portion 76 of the brush bundle 61 is formed in a cylindrical shape. The brush tip portion 77 is formed in an outwardly curved shape. The bottom wall 78a and the side wall 78b in the concave portion 78 are formed of an indented curved surface around the entire periphery, but have an outwardly curved surface near the opening 78c of the side wall 78b. The shape of the brush bundle 61 is gentle to the skin because the joints of the elements are formed by curved surfaces. Also in the present embodiment, the concave portion 78 is configured such that the diameter dimension thereof becomes wider from the bottom wall 78a toward the opening 78c.

(Embodiment 5) FIGS. 21 and 22 show a brush body 20 according to Embodiment 5 in which the brush structure is changed. There, like the brush body of the first embodiment, the brush shaft portion 76 of the brush bundle 61 is formed in an inverted frustoconical shape, and the brush front end portion 77 is also an outwardly curved shape. Different. That is, the concave portion 78 of the first embodiment is formed in the shape of an inner dent having a circular shape in plan view, but the concave portion 78 of the present embodiment is formed in the shape of an inner dent having a heart shape in plan view. Has been. Thus, if the recessed part 78 represents so that a design may be represented, the beauty apparatus which was rich in decoration can be provided. The pattern of the recess 78 can be changed to a star shape, a diamond shape, a trefoil shape, a four leaf shape, or the like in plan view. The three-dimensional shape of the recess 78 is not limited to the dome shape, and may be a conical shape pointed downward.

  In any of the first to fifth embodiments, the bottom wall 78a is formed with a flat surface or a curved surface, but may have a conical shape with a downward point. In addition, the inside of the recess 78 is not limited to the one without the brush bundle 61 at all, and if the hair bundle 61 does not have a rod shape and does not damage the skin surface, for example, the dots are dispersed in the recess 78 with dots. The hair bundle 61 may be provided in such a form. Thereby, it can wash | clean also with the hair | bristle bundle 61 distributedly arranged in the recessed part 78, and can improve a cleaning effect. The brush body 20 in the form exemplified in each of the above embodiments is a form in which the brush bundle 61 is formed to protrude in the same direction as the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20. If the concave portion 78 is configured to represent a design, it is possible to provide a cosmetic device with a rich decoration. However, if the emphasis is placed on this, the center of the front end surface of the brush bundle 61 is provided as in the present invention. It is not necessary to provide the concave part 78 representing the design in the part, and it may be provided shifted around.

(Embodiment 6) FIG. 23 shows a foaming container 1 in which the container structure of the foam generating unit 4 is changed. There, the bubble reflux wall 88 and the vessel bottom wall 15 of the bubble generating unit 4 are formed in a concave curved shape that curves smoothly, and the entire vessel wall 15 including the bubble reflux wall 88 is directed toward the foaming unit F. It was made to incline down. The inclination of the bubble reflux wall 88 was generally matched with the inclination of the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20. According to such a foam production | generation part 4, the foam lump which has flowed to the bubble recirculation | reflux wall 88 side and the foam lump which is going to stay in the container bottom wall 15 are reliably flowed toward the foaming part F, and it repeats brush Since it can stir with the bundle | flux 61, compared with the foaming container 1 demonstrated in FIG. 15, it can produce | generate more efficiently the mousse-like foam lump with a small foam diameter and fine texture.

(Embodiment 7) FIG. 24 shows a foaming container 1 in which the container structure of the foam generating unit 4 is changed. In this case, when assuming the vertical vessel central axis J of the foam generating unit 4 and the vertical central axis K passing through the center of the brush body 20, the foaming unit F is mounted in the state where the main body case 21 is attached to the holder 3. The vertical center axis K is offset to the left side of the instrument center axis J when viewed from the side facing the front. That is, the center axis in the longitudinal direction of the holder 3 is shifted to the left side from the instrument center axis J. Further, as shown by an arrow S in FIG. 18, the rotational driving direction of the brush body 20 is rotationally driven in the clockwise direction when viewed from the side facing the foaming part F, and is moved to the right half side of the foam generating part 4 An air introduction gap 89 that encourages the introduction of air is formed.

  More specifically, the offset half 96 including the vertical center axis K of the brush body 20 and the vertical center axis K of the brush body 20 are included with respect to the vertical plane passing through the container center axis J in the front-rear direction. Assuming that there is no remaining half 97, the direction of rotation of the brush body 20 is directed from the biased half 96 toward the remaining half 97 via the top of the peripheral surface of the brush 20 Thus, an air introduction gap 89 that encourages the introduction of air is formed on the remaining half 97 side.

  As described above, when the air introduction gap 89 for encouraging the introduction of air is formed on the remaining half 97 side, the bubble lump and air generated by the brush bundle 61 are simultaneously taken in from the air introduction gap 89 to obtain the brush bundle. 61 and the vessel bottom wall 15 can be wound. Further, since the gap between the peripheral wall 16 on the side of the biased half 96 and the peripheral surface of the brush bundle 61 is reduced by the amount by which the vertical central axis K is biased, the bubbles splashed off from the brush bundle 61 The lump can be received at a low position of the bubble flow lower wall 90 and quickly flowed down to the vessel bottom wall 15 side. Therefore, compared with the foaming container 1 demonstrated in FIG. 15, the stirring frequency of the foam lump by the brush bundle 61 can be increased, and a fine mousse-like lather can be generated more efficiently.

(Embodiment 8) FIG. 25 shows a foaming container 1 in which the container structure of the foam generating unit 4 is changed. There, as in the foaming container of the fourth embodiment, the longitudinal center of the holder 3 is arranged so that the vertical center axis K of the brush body 20 is offset to the left side of the vertical container center axis J of the foam generating unit 4. The axis was shifted to the left side of the instrument center axis J. Further, the rotational drive direction of the brush body 20 is rotated in the clockwise direction when viewed from the side facing the foaming portion F as shown by an arrow S in FIG. An air introduction gap 89 that encourages the introduction of air is formed. In addition, a foaming portion F is arranged at the inner corner of the biased half portion 96 of the foam generating portion 4, and the steeply inclined bubble receiving wall 91 that regulates the rising of the foam on the vessel peripheral wall 16 in the biased half portion 96. Formed. Further, a foam return wall 92 that slopes downward toward the foaming portion F from the vessel peripheral wall 16 to the vessel bottom wall 15 in the remaining half 97 is formed.

  As described above, when the foaming portion F is disposed at the inner corner of the biased half portion 96, the contact length in the circumferential direction between the brush bundle 61, the bottom wall 15 and the peripheral wall 16 can be increased. And agitation of the foam lump can be more effectively performed. Further, since the air introduction gap 89 that encourages the introduction of air is formed on the side of the remaining half portion 97, the bubble lump and air generated by the brush bundle 61 are simultaneously taken in from the air introduction gap 89, and the brush bundle 61 And the vessel bottom wall 15. Further, a steeply inclined bubble receiving wall 91 that restricts the rising of the foam is provided on the side of the biased half 96, and extends from the peripheral wall 16 to the bottom wall 15 on the side of the remaining half 97 to the foaming part F. Since the bubble return wall 92 that is inclined downward is provided, the bubble lump bounced off from the brush bundle 61 and the bubble lump generated by the brush bundle 61 are quickly caused to flow down to the foaming portion F to be repeatedly repeated. Can be stirred. Therefore, compared with the foaming container 1 demonstrated in FIG. 15, the stirring frequency of the foam lump by the brush bundle 61 can be increased, and a fine mousse-like lather can be generated more efficiently. The lump bounced off from the brush bundle 61 does not rise up along the bubble receiving wall 91 and protrude outside the bubble generating unit 4.

(Embodiment 9) FIG. 26 shows a foaming container 1 according to Embodiment 9. There, the structure of a part of the stand 5 is changed, and a brush water receiver 101 for receiving water drops falling from the brush body 20 is provided below the brush body 20 suspended and supported by the brush support 10 of the holder 3. I did it. Specifically, the rear position of the stand 5 is extended from directly below the brush support 10 of the holder 3 to the rear, and the brush water receiver 101 is formed in a recessed manner on the stand wall facing the brush body 20 vertically. As described above, when the brush water receiver 101 is provided below the brush body 20, it is possible to prevent water droplets dripping from the brush bundle 61 from being scattered around the stand 5. Moreover, since the brush water receiver 101 is formed integrally with the stand 5, an increase in cost associated with the provision of the brush water receiver 101 can be avoided.

Example 10 FIG. 27 shows a foaming container 1 according to Example 7. FIG. Here, a part of the structure of the stand 5 is changed so that the decorative cover 80 can be used as the brush water receiver 101. For this purpose, the cover storage unit 18 is provided on the stand 5 facing the brush support 10 of the holder 3 in the vertical direction, and the decorative cover 80 is stored in the cover storage unit 18 with the opening surface thereof facing upward. The cover 80 also serves as the brush water receiver 101. In addition, a water receiver 94 is newly formed in the wall surface of the stand 5 facing the drain port 14 so that the water dripping from the drain port 14 can be received by the water receiver 94.

Example 11 FIG. 28 shows a foaming container 1 according to Example 11. In this case, the drain port 14 is omitted, and the water (liquid) flowing down from the stirring body 2 and flowing into the holder 3 can flow into the internal space of the bubble generating unit 4 using the communication groove 12. . Therefore, the groove depth is made larger than the communication groove 12 described in the first embodiment, and the communication groove 12 is inclined downward from the bottom surface of the inner space of the holder 3 toward the inner space of the bubble generating unit 4. did. According to this drainage structure, since there is no drainage port 14, the water in the holder 3 does not drip and can be returned to the foam generation unit 4 and naturally dried. Further, even when the main body case 21 immediately after washing is mounted on the holder 3, all the water that has flowed down from the main body case 21 can be reliably received by the large volume foam generation unit 4.

(Embodiment 12) FIG. 29 shows a foaming container 1 in which the structure of the holder 3 is changed. There, the holder 3 is composed of an independent member different from the foaming container 1, and the brush body 20 of the stirring body 2 attached to the holder 3 can be inserted into the foam generating unit 4 only during foaming. I did it. The holder 3 is integrally provided with a holder main body 103 having the same structure as the holder 3 described in the first embodiment and a holder stand 104 that supports the holder main body 103, and a cover is stored in the stand base 105 below the holder stand 104. A portion 18 is formed. The stand 5 of the foam generating unit 4 is within the range of the outline of the foam generating unit 4 when viewed from the plane. At the rear of the opening edge of the foaming container 1, a mounting opening 106 for taking in and out the brush body 20 is formed obliquely.

  When foaming is performed, the holder 3 and the foaming container 1 are placed in a state where they are adjacent to each other on a dedicated mounting table (not shown), and both 1 and 3 are positioned and fixed. In this state, the stirrer 2 is mounted on the holder body 103 and the motor 28 is started so that the tip of the brush bundle 61 is brought into contact with the vessel bottom wall 15 and the vessel surrounding wall 16 facing the foaming portion F. Foaming can be performed in an elastically deformed state.

(Embodiment 13) FIG. 30 shows a foaming container 1 in which the structure of the holder 3 is changed. In this case, a restricting portion 13 for receiving the shoulder portion 34 of the main body case 21 is formed so as to project obliquely laterally at the rear portion of the foaming container 1, and an upward support wall 109 is continuously extended from the rear end thereof. An elastically deformable holding arm 110 that holds the left and right side surfaces of the main body case 21 is provided. That is, the restriction portion 13, the support wall 109, and the holding arm 110 constitute the holder 3, and these members are integrally formed with the foaming container 1. The stirring body 2 includes a main body case 21 that is held in an inverted posture by the holder 3 and a brush body 20 that is supported in an inclined state with respect to the central axis Q of the main body case 21. In a state where the main body case 21 is mounted on the holder 3, the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20 is inclined downward toward the foaming portion F. In this embodiment, since the brush body 20 protrudes obliquely upward in the state where the main body case 21 is erected, a pair of bevel gears 111 and 112 are provided on the final gear 38 and the drive shaft 39, and the rotation center shaft P is inclined. When the brush body 20 is provided so as to be inclined obliquely with respect to the central axis Q of the main body case 21, it is easy to clean or massage the skin with the tip surface of the brush bundle 61.

(Embodiment 14) FIG. 31 shows an agitator 2 in which the structure of the main body case 21 is changed. In this case, the end cover 24 is provided with a triangular brush holder 113, and the brush body 20 is attached to and detached from the flat peripheral surface of the brush holder 113. The foaming container 1 is substantially the same as the foaming container 1 described in Example 1, except that most of the foaming part F is occupied by the vessel bottom wall 15. In the state where the main body case 21 is erected, the flat peripheral surface of the previous brush holding portion 113 is inclined upward and inclined, and the brush body 20 is connected to the drive shaft 39 of the brush holding portion 113. The rotation center axis P of the brush body 20 is oriented in a direction orthogonal to the flat peripheral surface. Therefore, when the main body case 21 is mounted on the holder 3, the rotation center axis P of the brush body 20 is vertical, and the tip of the brush bundle 61 comes into contact with the container bottom wall 15 and is elastically deformed. For this purpose, a pair of bevel gears 111 and 112 are provided on the gear shaft 114 and the drive shaft 39 of the final gear 38 to incline the rotation center axis P. As can be understood from this embodiment, the foaming portion F may be provided mainly on the side of the vessel bottom wall 15, and in that case, the bubble-like projection comprising rib-like or independent projections on the vessel bottom wall 15. A group of 145 can be provided. Instead of the foaming protrusion 145, a group of foaming recesses may be provided. Also in the present embodiment, since the brush body 20 is provided in an inclined state with respect to the central axis Q of the main body case 21, it is easy to clean or massage the skin with the tip surface of the brush bundle 61.

(Embodiment 15) FIG. 32 shows a foaming container 1 in which the structure of the holder 3 is changed. There, a boss 116 is integrally formed at the rear part of the foaming container 1 so that the holder 3 can be detachably mounted in a vertical mounting hole 117 formed in the boss 116. The stirrer 2 has the same structure as the stirrer 2 described in the first embodiment, except that the entire stirrer 2 is supported in an inverted posture when the main body case 21 is attached to the holder 3. The holder 3 has a support shaft 118 having a non-circular cross-section that is inserted into and engaged with the mounting hole 117, and a control arm that protrudes forward from the middle part of the support shaft 118 and receives the shoulder portion 34 of the main body case 21. (Regulator) 13 and an elastically deformable holding arm 110 that extends forward from the upper end of the support shaft 118 and holds the left and right side surfaces of the main body case 21 are integrally provided. The foaming container 1 includes a foam generation unit 4 and a disk-shaped stand 5, and foaming ribs 17 are formed over the entire inner surface of the peripheral wall 16. In a state where the support shaft 118 is inserted into and engaged with the mounting hole 117 from above, the lower end of the support shaft 118 is received by the stand 5 and the holder 3 is supported upright by the foaming container 1. The vessel bottom wall 15 can be provided with a group of foaming protrusions 145 made of ribs or independent protrusions.

(Embodiment 16) FIG. 33 shows a stirring body 2 with a changed stirring structure. There, the brush base 120 integrally provided with the joint body 64 is provided, and the joint body 64 is connected to the drive shaft 39 so that the brush base 120 can be driven to rotate around the rotation center axis P. Further, two brush support shafts 121 are provided near both ends of the brush base 120 that is offset from the rotation center axis P, and the brush body 20 is fixed to these brush support shafts 121. The foaming container 1 and the holder 3 have the same structure as the foaming container 1 and the holder 3 described in Example 15. The vessel bottom wall 15 can be provided with a group of foaming protrusions 145 made of ribs or independent protrusions.

  In a state in which the stirring body 2 is mounted on the holder 3, the entire stirring body 2 is held in an inverted posture, and the tip of the brush bundle 61 of the brush body 20 comes into contact with the bottom wall 15 of the foaming container 1 and elastically deforms. doing. When the motor 28 is started in this state, the brush base 120 is driven to rotate around the rotation center axis P, and the tip of the brush bundle 61 is bubbled in a state where the two brush bodies 20 mainly contact the container bottom wall 15. While climbing over the standing ribs 17, foaming can be performed simultaneously with the plurality of foaming portions F. In this embodiment, the space between the two brush bodies 20 functions as the air introduction gap 89 and the recess 78.

  As described above, when the two brush bodies 20 are offset from the rotation center axis P of the brush base 120, the foam mass is simultaneously stirred by the two brush bodies 20, and the foam mass and the brush body 20 This can double the chance of contact, and thus the time required for the generation of bubbles and the refinement of the bubbles can be shortened, and the mousse-like lump can be generated more efficiently. Further, since the generated foam mass is accumulated between the two brush bodies 20, it is possible to prevent the foam mass from being accumulated in one state of the foam generation unit 4.

  The whisk configured as described above applies the shaft peripheral surfaces of the brush shaft portions 76 of the two brush bodies 20 to the skin to be cleaned at the same time according to the method described in the first embodiment, and the first vibration motor 51. In the state where the second vibration motor 52 is operated, the face can be washed. Further, when washing the face, if the brush base 120 is slowly driven to rotate by the rotational power of the motor 28, the rotating action of the two brush bodies 20 and the action of striking the skin surface with each brush body 20 You can wash your face. Also in the present embodiment, the brush body 20 is constituted by a brush base 60 supported by the main body case 21 and a brush bundle 61 supported by the brush base 60, and includes a center including the rotation center of the tip surface of the brush bundle 61. A recess 78 is formed in the portion. In the present embodiment, the lump 78 cannot be held in the recess 78, but since the recess 78 is provided at the center of the front end surface of the brush bundle 61, the brush body 20 is driven to rotate and the tip of the brush bundle 61 is rotated. When cleaning or massaging the skin with the face, it is possible to prevent the hair bundle located in the central portion including the rotation center axis P of the brush bundle 61 from becoming a rod shape and to suppress damage to the skin. .

  Incidentally, when the inner diameter of the bubble generating part 4 is sufficiently large with respect to the diameter of the brush body 20 and the rotation center axis of one brush body 20 is located on the vessel center axis J, the brush bundle Since the foam lump generated and jumped at 61 accumulates in the inner corner of the bubble generation unit 4, the lump cannot be repeatedly stirred with the brush bundle 61, and it takes a lot of time to refine the bubbles. End up. On the other hand, when the inner diameter of the bubble generating part 4 is slightly larger than the diameter of the brush body 20, the gap between the container peripheral wall 16 and the brush body 20 is reduced, so that the foam generated by the brush bundle 61 is generated. Since the foam lump fills the previous gap and it is difficult to take air into the lump, it is difficult to effectively generate bubbles and refine the bubbles.

(Example 17) FIG. 34 shows the stirring body 2 in which the brush rotation drive structure is changed. In this case, the motor 28 constituting the brush rotation drive structure is omitted, and a manual drive structure is provided in the foaming container 1 instead. When the main body case 21 is attached to the holder 3, the gear structure in the main body case 21 is provided. Can be connected to a manual drive structure. The manual drive structure includes a handwheel 124 and an output shaft 127 that is rotationally driven by the handle 124 via a pair of bevel gears 125 and 126, and a connecting shaft 128 having a square cross section is formed at the upper end of the output shaft 127. Is provided. The output shaft 127 is rotatably supported in a state in which the connecting shaft 128 protrudes into the holder 3 from a shaft opening 129 provided in the holder bottom wall 8. The gear structure on the main body case 21 side includes a joint shaft 130 detachably connected to the previous connection shaft 128, a pair of bevel gears 132 and 133 provided between the joint shaft 130 and the speed increasing gear shaft 131, A large-diameter gear 134 and a small-diameter gear 135 are provided between the speed increasing gear shaft 131 and the drive shaft 39. The upper case 22 of the stirring body 2 has a drive hole 136 that allows the connecting shaft 128 to enter and exit.

  When foaming is performed, the main body case 21 is attached to the holder 3 and the joint shaft 130 is connected to the connecting shaft 128. In this state, the foam container 1 and the stirring body 2 are held and held with one hand, and the brush body 20 is rotationally driven by rotating the hand handle 124 to generate a foam lump in the foam generation unit 4. The whisk in this example is used exclusively for foaming. However, in the case where at least the first vibration motor 51 of the first and second vibration motors 51 and 52 is provided inside the main body case 21, after the foaming is performed, the stirring body 2 is set to the skin cleaning mode. Facial skin can be cleaned. Further, for example, a flywheel can be integrally provided below the small-diameter gear 135. Thus, if the handwheel 124 is vigorously rotated, the skin 20 can be cleaned or massaged by rotating the brush body 20 via the gear structure. At this time, since the brush body 20 can be rotationally driven for a long time by the inertial force of the flyhole, the brush body 20 can be cleaned or massaged without using electric power. The brush rotation drive structure in this embodiment is a handwheel 124, a gear structure, and a flywheel. Thus, the brush rotation drive structure is not necessarily limited to the one including the motor 28.

(Example 18) FIG. 35 shows the stirring body 2 in which the brush rotation drive structure is changed. There, a turbine is used as the motor 28 constituting the brush rotation drive structure, and pressurized water is supplied to the inlet passage 139 so that the turbine can be rotationally driven. Reference numeral 140 denotes an outlet passage. A driving gear 35 is fixed to the output shaft of the turbine. Household tap water can be used as the pressurized water supplied to the inlet passage 139. If pressurized water is supplied, the turbine is driven to rotate and the brush body 20 is rotated, the skin surface can be cleaned or massaged. The brush rotation drive structure in the present embodiment has an inlet passage 139, an outlet passage 140, a flow path between both passages, and a turbine and gear structure disposed in the flow path. Thus, the brush rotation drive structure is not necessarily limited to the one including the motor 28.

(Example 19) FIG. 36 is a longitudinal side view of a foaming device according to Example 19. FIG. In this case, the main switch 26, the battery 29, and electrical components such as a control board are assembled inside the stand 5, and the power supply lead 142 for the motor 28 is provided between the main body case 21 and the stand 5. The length of the power supply lead 142 in this embodiment is set to a length sufficient to freely operate the stirring member 2 when performing skin cleaning. Note that a rectifier circuit may be disposed inside the stand 5 so that the alternating current supplied from the commercial power source is converted into direct current to drive the motor 28 and the vibration generating structure.

  The brush bundle 61 does not need to be formed in a circular cross section, and may be an oval cross section, an elliptical cross section, a polygonal cross section, or the like. The joint body 64 and the mounting structure 93 in the brush support may be provided separately. The brush support 10 can be provided around the foaming container 1 or at an arbitrary position on the lower peripheral surface of the holder 3. Further, if necessary, the brush support 10 can be formed integrally with the stand 5. For example, a storage section is provided between the holder 3 and the stand 5, and the brush body 20 can be stored and stored there. it can. Furthermore, the brush body 20 does not need to be stored in a state where the brush bundle 61 faces downward, and can be stored in an oblique or sideways state. In each of the above embodiments, the concave portion 78 is not illustrated, but it should be understood that the concave portion 78 is naturally formed in the central portion of the front end surface of the brush bundle 61.

  The foaming device configured as described above can be used not only for foaming a facial cleanser but also for foaming a shaving detergent or a hair dye. It can also be used for foaming liquid foods such as milk and egg white.
