Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a makeup tool for manicure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A makeup tool for manicure usually consists of a coating brush and a coating solution container filled with a manicure solution. The coating brush is put in the coating solution container to contain the nail polish solution. Apply to nails to form a nail polish film. Here, the nail varnish consists of a film-forming resin as an essential component, a colorant, and a solvent, and if necessary, auxiliary components such as a preservative and a modifier are added,
Conventionally, synthetic resins such as alkyd resins, polyethylene resins, sulfonamide resins and nitrocellulose have been used as film forming resins.

When removing the nail polish film, a coating brush dedicated to the removing liquid is put in a coating liquid container filled with the removing liquid to contain the removing liquid, and the removing brush is used to remove the resin. Organic solvents such as ketones and esters are used as a removing liquid for removing a film formed from a nail polish using the above synthetic resin as a component from a nail.

[0004]

As described above, the makeup tool for manicure is inconvenient to carry because it consists of two coating solution containers filled with the manicure solution or the decolorizing solution and the respective application brushes. It was In addition, a large space for storage is required even when not in use. And since the amount of nail polish contained in the application brush is less than the amount used once (the amount required to apply to 10 nails), put the application brush into the application liquid container many times to apply the nail polish. Need to be included, and the operation is complicated. Further, the situation is the same when using a removing liquid.

Therefore, like a paint marker, it is convenient to attach a coating brush to the tip of the coating liquid container so that the nail polish and the decolorizing liquid in the coating liquid container are sequentially supplied to the coating brush. However, the manicure liquid has a higher viscosity than inks for paint markers and is liable to solidify. Therefore, if a large amount of nail varnish remains on the application brush even after the application is completed, the application brush may be hardened. The reality is that it has hardly been put to practical use.

Further, if a remover composed of an organic solvent such as a ketone or an ester is used, water and fat on the nail are removed together with the nail polish film, so that the surface of the nail is rough and not glossy. When the nail is used for a long period of time, the nail becomes brittle, which is unfavorable for the health of the nail.

Therefore, the present invention does not require a container for a nail polish remover, is convenient to carry, and is easy to apply because nail polish is sequentially supplied, and the nail polish makeup is preferable for nail health. The purpose is to provide ingredients.

[0008]

In order to achieve such an object, the cosmetic device of the present invention is a spherical applicator in which a coating solution container is filled with a manicure solution that allows the nail polish film formed on the nail surface to be washed off with water. The tip of which is rotatably held with its part protruding from the tip is fixed to the coating liquid container, and the spherical coating body is springed by a spring to make contact with the inward tip edge of the tip when not in use. .

[0009]

In other words, the makeup tool of the present invention is a ball-point pen type, and since the nail polish film is filled with a nail polish solution that can be washed off with water, a container for a remover is not required, which is convenient to carry. Moreover, it is preferable for the health of the nails, but since the nail polish is sequentially supplied to the spherical applicator,
The coating operation is simple, and the spherical applicator is spring-loaded and contacts the inward tip edge of the tip when not in use. The nail polish does not solidify when not in use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be specifically described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. In FIG. 1, a tip 2 is liquid-tightly screwed to a tip opening of a coating liquid container 1 injection-molded into a cylindrical body with a synthetic resin. Then, insert the tip 3 into the center hole of the front opening 2.
Is fitted. Further, the coating liquid container 1 and the chip 2
The inside is filled with a nail polish L, which will be described later.

The tip 3 is formed of stainless steel in a bullet shape. As shown in FIG. 2, a part of the ball coating body 4 having a diameter of 1.0 mmφ is formed in the ball house at the tip of the tip 3. It is held rotatably while protruding from the tip of 3. That is, the makeup tool of the present invention is a ballpoint pen type, which is extremely convenient to carry.

A spring 5 having a small spring force is arranged in the chip 3, and the spring 5 repels the spherical applicator 4 and presses it against the inward tip edge 31 of the chip 3 to form the spherical applicator 4. And the tip edge 31 of the tip 3 constitutes a valve mechanism. In other words, when not in use, the nail polish L does not flow out from the tip of the tip 3 and is sealed by this valve mechanism, so that the nail polish L attached to the back side of the spherical applicator 4 does not solidify and the spherical applicator is used next time. The body 4 is adapted to rotate and apply.

When not in use, the cap 6 is fitted into the front opening 2. An inner cylinder 61 is provided inside the cap 6, and the inner cylinder 61 is in close contact with the tip small diameter portion of the front opening 2. Tip 3
Is sealed. Then, in the process of fitting the cap 6 into the front port 2, the effective space volume in the inner cylinder 61 is reduced and the air inside is pressurized, so that the spherical applicator 4 retreats and the pressurized air is applied to the application liquid. It enters the container 1. Therefore, the inside of the coating liquid container 1 is pressurized, and in use, the nail polish liquid L is supplied to the spherical coating body 4 held by the tip 3 by being pressed by the pressurized air, so that the nail polish liquid L can be surely coated. It has become. That is, the cap pressurization method is adopted.

It should be noted that the coating solution container 1 is molded of a flexible synthetic resin without using the cap pressurizing method, and the coating solution container 1 is pressed by a fingertip to be deformed at the time of use. The inside of 1 may be pressurized.

Further, a spherical sealing material (not shown) made of, for example, a soft elastic material is arranged in the inner cylinder 61, and in the process of fitting the cap 6 into the coating liquid container 1, the sealing material is spherical coating material. When it comes into contact with 4 and is forcibly retracted, the inside of the coating liquid container 1 can be efficiently pressurized and the tip of the chip 3 can be reliably sealed.

The manicure liquid L used in the cosmetics of the present invention comprises a vinyl acetate / vinylpyrrolidone copolymer as a resin component, and is water-soluble so that the manicure film can be washed off with water. At the same time, the water resistance that does not impair the beauty is satisfied. It also satisfies the performance required for the nail polish film, such as adhesion to the nail surface, hardness, and gloss.

The vinyl acetate / vinylpyrrolidone copolymer tends to have higher water solubility as the proportion of vinyl acetate decreases, and conversely, as the proportion of vinyl acetate increases, the water solubility tends to decrease and the water resistance tends to increase. However, the proportion of vinyl acetate is 40% or more in order to simultaneously satisfy the water-solubility that allows the nail polish film to be washed off with water and the water resistance that does not impair the beauty of the nail polish film even if water adheres.

When the nail polish is applied to the nails, the amount of the resin added is increased to some extent so that a sufficient texture can be obtained. However, in the conventional nail polish, when the amount of the resin is increased, the viscosity becomes high and the leveling and It adversely affects "spread." However, the vinyl acetate / vinyl pyrrolidone copolymer, which is a resin component, has a characteristic that the viscosity does not become so high even if the amount of resin is increased more than ever, and the addition ratio of the vinyl acetate / vinyl pyrrolidone copolymer is 10 to 10%. By setting it to 35%, a sufficient texture can be obtained at the time of application, and good leveling and "spreading" can be obtained.

When the tip of the tip 3 is moved by contacting it with the nail, the spherical applicator 4 contacts the seat of the tip 3 and rotates, and the nail polish L is applied. -Since the vinylpyrrolidone copolymer is used, the viscosity is lower than that of the conventional nail varnish which uses a synthetic resin as a resin component. Therefore, the nail varnish L of the spherical coating 4 and the tip edge 31 of the tip 3 is used. Since it is sequentially supplied to the exposed portion of the spherical coating body 4 that rotates without being clogged, the coating can be performed very easily and continuously, and the coating brush is often used as in the conventional case. It is not necessary to put the nail polish in the coating brush and apply the nail polish to the coating brush.

When removing the nail polish film, the nail polish film can be washed with water while rubbing the nail polish film with a fingertip. Therefore, unlike the conventional case, a container for removing liquid and a coating brush are not required, and it is a ball-point pen type. Combined with this, it is extremely convenient to carry. Further, since a light remover composed of an organic solvent such as ketones and esters is not used, it is extremely preferable from the viewpoint of nail health.

[0021]

As described above, the makeup tool for manicure of the present invention is such that the nail polish film formed on the nail surface is filled with a nail polish solution which can be washed off with water,
A tip that rotatably embraces the spherical applicator partly protruding from the tip is fixed to the tip opening of the application liquid container,
Since the spherical applicator is spring-loaded to contact the inward tip edge of the tip when not in use, a container for the remover is unnecessary, and it is convenient to carry, and the nail polish is sequentially applied. It is possible to obtain a makeup tool for manicure which is supplied and easy to apply, and which is good for the health of nails.
