Definitions

  • This invention relates to an applicator for applying a liquid, semi-liquid, creamy, paste-like or viscous material. It is particularly, but not exclusively, concerned with an applicator for applying a colouring cosmetics product (mascara) to the eyelashes.
  • a colouring cosmetics product mascara
  • a miniature twisted wire stem brush projects axially from the end of a carrier shaft, a multiplicity of bristles being rooted in the wire stem and projecting radially therefrom in the form of helical flightings.
  • a multiplicity of laterally projecting flexible teeth or bristles are integrally molded from a plastics material with a stem, the teeth or bristles forming a plurality of circumferentially distributed, axially extending rows.
  • an applicator for a liquid, semi-liquid, creamy, paste-like or viscous cosmetics material of the kind comprising a handle portion and a head portion having a stem and a multiplicity of elements projecting laterally therefrom, is characterised in that said multiplicity of elements are so arranged and shaped as to form interstices of a converging shape or configuration to thereby grip eyelashes when the applicator is drawn through the latter in use.
  • the bristles are preferably arranged in at least first and second circumferentially adjacent rows extending along at least part of said stem, the positions of the filaments of one row being longitudinally offset, or staggered, relative to the positions of the filaments in the other row.
  • the rows may extend parallel to the axis of the support.
  • Several such rows may be circumferentially distributed around the whole or part of the circumference of the support.
  • the relative staggering need not be applied to all of the rows of filaments. Accordingly a first group of adjacent rows may be arranged such that each is staggered relative to at least one of its neighbours, while a second group may be arranged without any such staggering.
  • the filaments are regularly spaced along said rows, and the filaments in adjacent rows are offset by half the filament spacing so that every other row is in circumferential alignment.
  • the eyelashes are made to fall into a more convoluted path between the filaments of adjacent rows, thus ensuring a more efficient application to the eyelashes of the material retained in the interstices between the filaments.
  • the filaments are preferably integrally molded with the support from a suitable plastics material.
  • An integrally moulded applicator has a handle 2, a head 3 and a bristle arrangement 4.
  • Bristles or elements 5 are arranged in rows 6 the bristles 5 in each row 6 being aligned with the bristles in other row in order to form a multiplicity of rings 7.
  • the rings 7 are regularly spaced axially along the applicator head 3.
  • Figure 3 illustrates the manner in which the applicator 1 of Figures 1 and 2 is used for the application of mascara to eyelashes.
  • the applicator with mascara retained in the interstices between the eyelashes 8 extend generally perpendicularly to the axis of the applicator head 3, and therefore enter the spaces 10 between the successive rings 7 of bristles 5.
  • mascara which is retained between adjacent bristles 5 of the respective rows 6 is applied.
  • mascara is also retained in the spaces between adjacent bristles5 in the respective rings (e.g. space 11 in Figure 2) and the material in these latter spaces generally remains unused since the eyelashes 8 generally do not enter such spaces 11.
  • the bristles 5 are again arranged in a plurality of circumferentially distributed, axially extending rows, the bristles being regularly spaced in the rows 6.
  • the positions of the bristles 5 in each row 6 are longitudinally offset, or staggered, relative to the positions of the bristles in at least one neighbouring row.
  • the bristles 5a in the row 6a are offset longitudinally with respect to the bristles 5b in the adjacent upper row 6b and with respect to the bristles 5c in the adjacent lower row 6c.
  • the offset between the bristles 5 of one row 6 and the bristles 5 of the adjacent row 6 is exactly half the bristle spacing so that the bristles in every other row are circumferentially aligned.
  • the bristles 5a are circumferentially aligned with the bristles 5c, and the bristles 5a are circumferentially aligned with the bristles 5d in the lowermost illustrated row 6d.
  • Reference numeral 8a in Figure 4 indicates a few eyelashes in the positions they would adopt relative to the bristles 5 during mascara application. Because of the axial offset, or staggering, of the bristles 5 of respective adjacent rows, the interstices 12 between the bristles of one row are likewise offset relative to the interstices between the bristles of an adjacent row. Accordingly, as the applicator 1 is stroked against and along the eylashes away from the eyelid, the eyelashes are forced to follow convulated paths which meander between the non-aligned interstices of the adjacent rows 6. Furthermore, the eyelashes will flex longitudinally as they pass through these interstices. This produces a more efficient application of the material from the interstices onto the eyelashes than was achieved in the known arrangement of Figure 1 with circumferentially registered bristles and interstices.
  • This gripping can be achieved by either the shaping of the bristles or their relative positioning with respect to one another or a combination of both.
  • a brush could have some of its bristles arranged as in the prior art ( Figures 1-3) and some arranged in accordance with the present invention (e.g. Figure 4).
  • a brush could have some of its bristles arranged as in the prior art ( Figures 1-3) and some arranged in accordance with the present invention (e.g. Figure 4).
  • Figure 5 shows three possible arrangements for the bristles or elements (5) in order to achieve the gripping of the eyelashes (8).
  • the bristles or elements (5) are each of a tapered shape. However, other shapes could be employed to achieve the gripping effect.
