Description

NAIL POLISH MACHINE THAT CAN BE APPLIED AND DRIED ON 5 FINGERS
SIMULTANEOUSLY
Technical Field
The present invention is related to the nail polish machines that provides automatically applying and drying the nail polishes which are applied by women on their toes and fingers in terms of beauty and aesthetic.
The present invention is particularly related to the nail polish machine that automatically applies and dries nail polish on fingers and toes by means of placing them on moulds designed according to thereof.
Prior Art
Today women apply paint called nail polish on their fingers and toes in order to add a different outlook to themselves in terms of beauty and aesthetics.
The nail polishes of the prior art is applied by a person to the nails manually by means of a brush.
In the prior art there are machines apart from manual polishing, such as a 3d printer that applies nail polish on the nails by making patterns.
These machines in the prior art do not polish five fingers simultaneously in order to make a design. At the same time with the prior art, it takes too much time to make a design on one finger. Therefore it is a process that takes a long time.
In the prior art, polishes made with design are not always appropriate for daily usage. Particularly for women who work in corporations do not have the opportunity to use patterned nail polish.
In the prior art, polishing is made by means of an ink cartridge. Therefore it is not appropriate for the use of accessible and preferred nail polishes within the market.
Machines used in the state of the art are not appropriate for individual and mobile usage due to their dimensions and costs.
The method used in the state of the art can be used within more limited times. For this reason they do not appeal to the whole market.
During manual nail polish applying process in the prior art, the brush can be shifted and applied on the skin. Thus it requires extra effort for cleaning the skin. In the prior art, it is difficult to manually apply nail polish on each nail equally. For this reason due to lack of equal outlook on each nail, the aesthetic outlook requirement which is the aim of polishing the nails, cannot be fulfilled fully.
In the prior art, after manual nail polishing, the nail polish is dried by the individual by means of blowing upon or waiting to dry. However when it is blown upon the nail polish, because the nail polish is a fluid, it shifts on the nail and its view is demolished. Waiting for it to dry also causes time wasting.
As a result of the researches made in the literature, we come across to the utility model with application No TR201 1/09777 titled as “Nail polishing machine”. In the abstract of the invention with classification A45D 29/00 it is stated that“The invention is related to a nail polishing machine which is appropriate for using in centers such as beauty salons, hairdressers etc. and individual usages, provides automatic design application on the users nail and/or polishing the users nail by nail polish, operated by means of an open/close button and provides polishing/designing the nails with the spraying nozzle located within itself, comprises a sheath where there is a cartridge including ink that enables coloring, at least one holder which is located on the open section of said sheath facing the user and enables holding the finger of the nail on which the nail polish/design will be applied in a stable manner and provides performing the application without outpouring and spoiling, a screen which provides to display and arrange different pattern applications by the user.”
In the abovementioned application, a machine that can only apply patterned nail polish only on one finger each time is disclosed. This application can be shown as an example to some disadvantages mentioned above.
As a result; parallel developments are made to the developing technology in terms of the nail polish machines, for this reason new structures are required in order to eliminate the abovementioned disadvantages and bring solution to the prior systems.
Purpose of the Invention
The present invention, different from the structures used in the prior art, is related to the nail polish machines developed in the direction of solving said disadvantages and brought some additional advantages.
The purpose of the invention is to enable simultaneous polishing five fingers with known nail polishes within the current market with a desired color and within a very short time.
Another purpose of the invention is to provide opportunity for polishing a required number of fingers. Another purpose of the invention is to dry the nail polish within a short period of time with a dryer system included within the device after fast polishing. Therefore it is to perform the required process in a healthy manner.
Another purpose of the invention is to present an option to all women that can be preferred both during work and during private times.
Another purpose of the invention is to prevent the nail polish to be applied on the skin by means of the nail bordering apparatus. Therefore the person would not waste time by cleaning the nail polish from the skin.
Another purpose of the invention is to provide applying nail polish on each nail in a balanced manner by means of the spraying nozzle.
The structural and characteristic features and all advantages of the invention will be clarified by the following drawings and with reference to these drawings and therefore the evaluation shall be made by taking these figures and the detailed description into consideration.
