Definitions

  • the present invention relates to molded applicator tines and an applicator brush head made with such tines for applying cosmetic or coloring compounds to hair, eyelashes, eyebrows, etc.
  • Brush heads with molded tines, bristles or teeth for applying mascara, color, dye, tint, treatment or other hair, lash or brow products are well known.
  • Applicator brushes with molded tines (as opposed to, for example, brushes with fiber bristles secured between the branches of a twisted wire core, or tufts of bristles secured by staples in holes in a solid base, backbone, rod or core) generally comprise several rows of tines either integrally molded, over-molded or assembled onto a core.
  • the known brushes generally have tines arranged in a circular duplication along the longitudinal axis of the brush core. In other words, the tines are arranged in repeated radially extending rings along the length of the core. Tines in adjacent rings form rows of tines.
  • the brushes generally have 6 to 12 rows of tines. Each row has a plurality of tines. Generally, the profile, shape or design of each of the tines is the same throughout the brush head. Also each tine generally has a circular or semi-circular cross-section.
  • a drawback with known molded tine brush heads is, for example, the diminished ability to comb and separate lashes after mascara or other product has been applied. Also, molded tine brushes may not grip, for example, an eyelash shaft to the same degree as the fibers of a twisted wire core brush head.
  • a cosmetic applicator brush head has a plurality of molded tines, each with a main shaft and a first and a second branch extending from the shaft.
  • the first branch extends at a point between the base of the shaft and the free end of the shaft.
  • the second branch extends from the shaft at a point between the base of the shaft and the first branch.
  • the first and second branches extend in a radial direction from the shaft at an angle of 5° to 90° relative to the free end and to a longitudinal axis of the shaft.
  • the cosmetic applicator brush head has a base adapted to be secured to a rod with a cap.
  • a plurality of molded tines extends from the base.
  • Each of the plurality of molded tines has a main shaft having a first end secured to the base, and an opposite free end.
  • the main shaft defines a longitudinal axis and a length taken from the first end to the free end.
  • a first branch extends from the main shaft at a point between the first end and the free end.
  • the first branch extends in a radial direction from the main shaft at an angle of 5° to 90° relative to the free end and to the longitudinal axis of the main shaft.
  • a second branch extends from the main shaft at a point between the first end and up to and including a height of the first branch on the shaft.
  • the second branch extends radially from the main shaft at an angle of 5° to 90° relative to the free end and to the longitudinal axis.
  • the brush head is adapted to load, deposit and doctor at least one of mascara, color, dye, tint, treatment and other hair, lash and brow products.
  • the brush head is also adapted to comb and separate eyelashes, eyebrow hairs or hair shafts.
  • the invention also relates to a tine extending from a cosmetic applicator brush head.
  • the tine has a main shaft with a first end adapted to be secured to the base, and an opposite free end.
  • the main shaft defines a longitudinal axis and has a length taken from the first end to the free end.
  • a first branch extends from the main shaft at a point between the first end and the free end.
  • the first branch extends in a radial direction from the main shaft at an angle of 5° to 90° relative to the free end of the shaft and to the longitudinal axis of the shaft.
  • a second branch extends from the main shaft at a point between the first end and up to and including a height of the first branch on the shaft.
  • the second branch extends radially from the shaft at an angle of 5° to 90° relative to the free end and to the longitudinal axis of the shaft.
  • the tine is adapted to load, deposit and doctor at least one of mascara, color, dye, tint, treatment and other hair, lash and brow products, and is adapted to comb and separate eyelashes, eyebrow hairs or hair shafts.
  • FIG. 1 is an elevation and partial sectional view of a mascara package incorporating the brush head with molded tines of a first embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the brush head with molded tines of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 ;
  • FIG. 3 is an elevation view of the brush head with molded tines of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 ;

  • FIG. 4A is an enlarged view of the branched applicator tines of the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 is an elevation view of the second embodiment of the brush head with molded tines shown in FIG. 4 .
  • the package includes a vial 2 (shown in a sectional view) defining a storage reservoir 6 for product P.
  • the vial has a wiper 4 and a neck 8 defining an opening 10 for receiving an applicator 12 and for withdrawing product P.
  • the applicator 12 includes a cap 16 adapted to be received on the neck 8 for closing the vial 2 .
  • Internal threads (not shown) inside the cap are provided to mate with external threads 14 on the neck 8 to secure the cap 16 on the vial.

  • “Bristles” are generally understood to be stiff, hair-like structures.
  • “Teeth” are generally understood to be projecting parts each resembling a tooth in shape or function, as on a comb, gear, or saw.
  • the terms “tines”, “bristles” or “teeth” in singular or plural form are used interchangeably to designate any thin, stiff prong, projection, projecting part or structure extending from a supporting backbone, rod, core or base.
  • the tines, bristles and teeth are adapted to load, deposit and doctor mascara, color, dye, tint, treatment or other hair, lash or brow products, as well as combing and separating individual lashes, brow hairs and hair shafts.
