The mold comprises a mold (7) for the shank and a plurality of molds (9) for brush bristle molding the brush bristle. A plurality of brush grooves (11) are formed in the surfaces of the molds for brush bristle crossing the axial direction of the shank, the molds for brush bristle are disposed adjacent to each other along the axial direction of the shank, and a resin material is filled in the mold for the shank and the molds for brush bristle for molding.
Description
- The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an applicator for cosmetics and an applicator for cosmetics.
- In Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-159823, as an applicator for cosmetics formed by molding a brush bristle and a shank integrally with each other, there is disclosed a technique in which a plurality of columns of brush bristles are formed along the axial direction of the shank. In this patent document, a plurality of brush grooves are formed on surfaces of molds for brush bristles molding the brush bristles along the axial direction of the shank.
- However, in the conventional technique described in the above patent document, since the brush grooves are formed on the surfaces of molds for brush bristles along the axial direction of the shank, the array of brush bristles is limited to be on a substantially straight line along the axial direction of the shank, causing a problem in which arrangement of brush bristles is limited, so that there has been desired an increase in degree of freedom of the arrangement of brush bristles.
- In views of the aforementioned circumstances, it is an object of the present invention is to obtain a method for manufacturing an applicator for cosmetics that is capable of increasing freedom of arrangement of brush bristles and an applicator for cosmetics manufactured by the manufacturing method.
- In order to solve the aforementioned problem, a first invention is a method for manufacturing an applicator for cosmetics by molding a shank and a brush bristle integrally with each other with a mold, wherein the mold comprises a mold for the shank molding the shank and a plurality of molds molding the brush bristles, a plurality of brush grooves are formed on surfaces of the molds for brush bristle crossing the axial direction of the shank, the molds for brush bristle are disposed adjacent to each other along the axial direction of the shank, and a resin material is filled in the mold for the shank and the molds for brush bristle for molding.
- According to this invention, since the mold for brush bristle has the brush grooves in the direction crossing the axial direction of the shank, the brush grooves can be formed at any position in the direction crossing the axial direction of the shank, thereby making it possible to increase degree of freedom of the arrangement of brush bristles.
- Moreover, since the brush grooves are formed on the surface in the direction crossing the axial direction of the shank, one side surface of the bristle is aligned on substantially the same straight line in the direction crossing the axial direction of the shank, so that smooth brushing can be performed when mascara is applied to eyelashes.
- Furthermore, the brush grooves are formed on only the one side surface of each mold for brush bristle, other side surface is flat shaped, and the one side surface of the mold for brush bristle may be fit to the other side surface of the adjacent mold for brush bristle.
- In this case, since the brush grooves are formed on only the one side surface of each of the molds for brush bristles, there is no need to adjust the positions of the brush grooves with high precision, thereby making it easy to perform mold positioning as compared with the case in which the brush grooves are formed on both side surfaces of he mold for brush bristles.
- The brush grooves of at least one of the molds for brush bristle disposed adjacent to each other may be arranged at positions shifted in the axial direction of the shank.
- In this case, since the length of the brush grooves of the adjacent molds for brush bristles differs along the axial direction of the shank, it is possible to bring the brush bristles into contact with eyelashes or eyebrows to be adjusted to the length thereof, so that cosmetic material can be applied evenly.
- The brush grooves of the mold for brush bristle may be aligned on substantially the same straight line along the axial direction of the shank. In this case, since the brush grooves of the mold for brush bristle are aligned on substantially the same straight line along the axial direction of the shank, it is possible to use the same mold for brush bristles and facilitate arrangement of the molds for brush bristles as the time of molding as compared with the case where the different types of molds for brush bristles are used.
- Length of the brush grooves of the adjacent molds for brush bristle may differ along the axial direction of the shank. In this case, since the length of the brush grooves of the adjacent molds for brush bristles differs along the axial direction of the shank, it is possible to bring the brush bristles into contact with eyelashes or eyebrows to be adjusted to the length thereof, so that cosmetic material can be applied evenly.
- The length of the brush grooves may be gradually increased from a top end portion side to a base end portion side. In this case, since the length of the brush grooves is gradually increased from the top end portion in the axial direction of the shank to the base end portion, a right-hander can easily apply cosmetic material to the eyelashes on his/her right eye.
- The second invention is an applicator for cosmetics obtained by the aforementioned manufacturing method. In this case, it is possible to offer the same effect as that obtained by the aforementioned manufacturing method.

applicator 1 for cosmetics according to an embodiment of the present invention is mainly used as a mascara brush and includes ashank 3,brush bristles 5 molded integrally with theshank 3. - The
shank 3 has aflat surface 3 a on which thebrush bristles 5 are formed and a rear side of theflat surface 3 a has a curved surface 3 b with a cross section of substantially semicircular shape. - The
brush bristles 5 are arranged in a staggered manner where threebrush bristles 5 and twobrush bristles 5 are alternately formed along the axial direction of theshank 3. Eachbrush bristle 5 has a cross section of substantially triangular shape, and thebrush bristles 5 arranged in a direction crossing the axial direction of theshank 3 are formed in such a way that theirtriangular bottom portions 5 a are positioned on a substantially straight line in a direction crossing the axial direction of theshank 3. - An explanation will be next given of a mold for molding the
applicator 1 for cosmetics according to an embodiment of the present invention. The mold for molding theapplicator 1 for cosmetics includes a mold 7 for the shank molding theshank 3 and a plurality ofmolds 9 for brush bristles molding thebrush bristles 5. - The mold 7 for the shank includes a
mold 7 a for a circular portion side molding a circular portion of theshank 3 and a pair ofmolds shank 3. - The
molds 9 for brush bristles are plate-shaped and each thickness in the axial direction of the shank is about 0.6 mm. Themolds 9 for brush bristles are arranged in the axial direction of theshank 3 and therespective molds 9 for brush bristles are disposed to be adjacent to each other along the axial direction of the shank at the time of molding. Moreover, each of themolds brush grooves 11 that form a column on the surface of the mold crossing the axial direction of theshank 3. - The
brush grooves 11 are formed on only oneside surface 9 a of each of themolds 9 for brush bristles andother surface 9 b is flat and the oneside surface 9 a of themold 9 for brush bristles is fit onto theother surface 9 b of theadjacent mold 9 for brush bristles. At the time of molding, a resin material is filled between theend surface 9 b of theadjacent mold 9 for brush bristles and thebrush grooves 11. - An explanation will be next given of the function and operation according to this embodiment. In the case of manufacturing the
applicator 1 for cosmetics, themold 7 a for the circular portion side andmolds 7 b for the flat portion side and themold 9 for brush bristles are disposed as illustrated inFIG. 2 , and the resin material is injected in aspace 13 formed between themold 7 a for the circular portion side and themolds 7 b for the flat portion side from an inflow entrance. The resin material injected in thespace 13 enters thebrush grooves 11 via themold 7 a for the circular portion side and themolds 7 b for the flat portion side and thebrush grooves 11 are filled with the resin material, and thespace 13 is also filled with the resin material. The resin material is cooled and hardened after the resin material is filled in thespace 13 and a predetermined time has passed, thereafter a resultant is extracted from the molds to make it possible to obtain theapplicator 1 for cosmetics. - According to this embodiment, since the
mold 9 for brush bristles has thebrush grooves 11 in the direction crossing the axial direction of theshank 3, thebrush grooves 11 can be formed at any position of the surface where the brush grooves are formed, thereby making it possible to increase degree of freedom of the arrangement ofbrush bristles 5. - Since the
brush grooves 11 are formed on only the oneside surface 9 a of each of themolds 9 for brush bristles, there is no need to adjust the positions of thebrush grooves 11 with high precision, thereby making it easy to perform mold positioning as compared with the case in which thebrush grooves 11 are formed on both side surfaces of eachmold 9 for brush bristles. - Since the
mold 9 for brush bristles has thebrush grooves 11 in the direction crossing the axial direction of theshank 3, the side end surface of thebristle 5 is aligned on substantially the same straight line in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the shank, so that smooth brushing can be performed when mascara is applied to eyelashes. - Furthermore, the
brush bristles 5 are arranged in a staggered manner along the axial direction of theshank 3, mascara can enter between the bristles while moving in a zigzag manner along the axial direction of the shank, resulting in a good application of mascara as compared with the case in which thebrush bristles 5 are arranged to be on substantially the straight line along the axial direction of theshank 3. - A second embodiment of the present invention will be next explained with reference to
FIGS. 5 and 6 . In the following explanation, it should be noted that the portions of this embodiment having the same function and effect as those of the first embodiment are assigned the same reference numerals as those of corresponding portions in the first embodiment and the detailed explanation thereof is omitted, and the following will mainly explain the point different from the first embodiment. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that depth of thebrush grooves 11 is gradually increased from atop end portion 15 in the axial direction of the shank to a base end portion 17 (H1<H2<H3<H4). Since the depth of thebrush grooves 11 is gradually increased from thetop end portion 15 in the axial direction of theshank 3 to thebase end portion 17 as described above, the length of thebrush bristles 5 can be obliquely provided along the axial direction, thereby making it possible to bring thebrush bristles 5 into contact with eyelashes or eyebrows in such a way to be adjusted to the length thereof, so that a cosmetic material can be applied evenly and a right-hander can easily apply the cosmetic material to the eyelashes on his/her right eye. - Additionally, the depth of the
brush grooves 11 may be gradually increased from thebase end portion 17 in the axial direction of theshank 3 to thetop end portion 15, in which case the right-hander can easily apply the cosmetic material to the eyelashes on his/her left eye. - It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned embodiment, but various modifications may be made within the range not departing from the gist of the present invention.
- The aforementioned embodiment has been described for a case where the cross section of the
brush bristle 5 is of substantially triangular shape in a plane view, but the present invention is not limited to the above case, and is also applicable to other case where a rhombic shape in a plane view may be possible as illustrated inFIG. 7 . In this case, thebrush grooves 11 are formed on not only oneend surface 9 a of themold 9 for brush bristles but also theend surface 9 b of theadjacent mold 9 for brush bristles to face to oneend surface 9 a. - Moreover, the cross section of the
brush bristle 5 may be of pentagonal shape in a plane view as illustrated inFIG. 8 or a semicircular shape in a plane view or circular shape in a plane view may be possible. - Although the
brush grooves 11 of themolds 9 for brush bristles are arranged in the staggered manner along the axial direction of theshank 3, thebrush grooves 11 of theadjacent mold 9 for brush bristles may be arranged at positions shifted in a direction perpendicular to the axis of theshank 3. - The brush bristles 5 may be aligned on substantially the same straight line along the axial direction of the
shank 3, in which case the same mold for brush bristles can be used, thereby making it easy to arrange the molds for brush bristles at the time of molding as compared with the case where the different types of molds for brush bristles are used. - The
applicator 1 for cosmetics is not limited to be used as the mascara brush but may be utilized as an eyebrow brush. - As mentioned above, the present invention is useful as a method for manufacturing an applicator for cosmetics and an applicator for cosmetics, and is particularly suitable for increasing degree of freedom of the arrangement of brush bristles of the applicator for cosmetics.
