- a variant of the applicator according to the invention is produced in the so-called two-component injection molding process.
- the applicator be switched Trä ⁇ geretti 5 sprayed a substantial part of its stiffness and / or dimensional stability of a harder and / or more rigid plastic first.
- the existing of a wei ⁇ cheren and / or more flexible plastic ribs are molded. In this way, the individual performance characteristics of the applicator can accurately set the ⁇ .
- the applicator shown by this embodiment does not have to be a preferably one-piece plastic injection molded part be executed, even if such a method of production is of course very advantageous from a cost point of view.
- High-priced applicators of this kind can instead also be made of metal.
- They are preferably produced by the metal die casting process or by one of the primary molding processes which are otherwise used for the so-called “rapid prototyping" of metal-containing materials.
- an applicator section made in this way from metal is given a finish in that it is guided with its outermost circumference rotatingly past a grinding wheel so that its pointed apex areas are rounded off, which ensures a more pleasant feeling of application and greater safety.
- FIG. 5 to 8 show a second embodiment of the invention, which substantially corresponds to the first embodiment and for which therefore applies in connection with the first embodiment in the same way.
- the cage in this embodiment is not completely self-contained in the circumferential direction, but instead has, exceptionally and in contrast to all other embodiments, a slot extending longitudinally across the width of a plurality of ribs, as best shown in FIG 5 can be seen.
- the slot is preferably as narrow designed so that the Ef fect ⁇ that the interior of the cage during the insertion of Ap plikatorabitess in a cosmetic stock with cosmetic will be ⁇ load, is not substantially affected.
- the slot as seen with reference to FIG. 8, in this embodiment by rudimentary trained Rib portions 12 limited, the free cantilever ends at the Rän ⁇ countries of the slot S.
- FIGS 9 to 12 describe a thirdstrasbei ⁇ play of the invention which is very similar to the first embodiment of the invention. The description already given there therefore applies to this third embodiment in a corresponding manner, as far as the features described below, by which the third embodiment differs from the first embodiment, does not result in anything else.
- this third embodiment of the cage has a cross section corresponding to a heart shape so a non-triangular cross-section We ⁇ sentlichen.

- an applicator with such a total, non-triangular cross section at least locally achieves the advantages that the triangular cross section described above has achieved.
- this heart-shaped cross section has further advantages in individual cases.
- the wall thickness of the cage is here again preferably the same everywhere. But there are three areas where the cage ⁇ figwand has no interruptions or passages, wes ⁇ half they each have a carrier element 5 ausbil ⁇ det at these locations.
- the ribs 6, which form the tip of the heart-shaped cross section in this embodiment, are characterized in turn by each of these ribs 6 zwekelnkelig and the two legs, which emanate from the respective rib base 8, 9 and meet at the apex 10 of the respective rib , with each other include an angle ß, which is preferably less than or equal to 110 °.
- each adjacent ribs of this type form between them a continuous opening 7.
- the lid-side projection of the eyelashes can reach very well with the apertures formed between these ribs, so that treatment of the eyelashes right up to their neck is ensured.
- an additional channel 11 is formed in which additional mass can be stored directly on the outer circumference of the cage.
- This heart-shaped configuration has the great advantage that circumferentially differently curved sections of the cage are available, so that this applicator, depending on the position in which it turns, very different application properties unfolds and thus ultimately the distinctly different properties of several different applicators in united.
- FIGS. 13 to 16 describe a fourth exemplary embodiment. play the applicator according to the invention.
- This fourth exporting ⁇ approximately example corresponds largely to the third exporting approximately ⁇ example, so what has been said applies, mutatis mutandis, where in each case for the fourth embodiment.
- the fourth exporting ⁇ approximately example has an additional slot 16 in the region of the apex of the heart.
- This additional groove 16 is very narrow, the width of its clear cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the applicator corresponds approximately to the thickness of a rib 6.
- ⁇ groove can be very well take the tips of the eyelashes or threading to the eyelashes a curling to lend.
- Figures 17 to 20 describe a fifth,sbei ⁇ game of the applicator according to the invention, which is actually a variant of the third embodiment, so that what is said there also applies here.
- the ribs 6 are each equipped with comb teeth 17 and retaining means 18.
- the comb teeth 17 protrude from the vertex 10 of the heart tip forming ribs 6 to the outside.
- the comb teeth improve the separation of the eyelashes when they are pulled out of the openings 7 again. Since the comb teeth, at least in the region of their tips, have a diameter which is smaller than the thickness of the ribs 6 in the region of their edges. 10 is, the comb teeth are very fine and can therefore be used to separate the eyelashes later if necessary, without the eyelashes dip again into the passages 7. So z. B. adjacent eyelashes are separated from each other, which had previously both inserted into the same passage 7 and therefore are first glued together.
- the retaining means 18 are here in the form of short, formed by the ribs outwardly projecting pin. These pins preferably form a row of 10 to 20 pins on each rib. The length of the pins is preferably less than the thickness of the rib 6 in the corresponding direction. The pins improve the adhesion of the cosmetic to the outside of the rib, thus helping to load each rib with a certain additional amount of cosmetic.
- Figures 21 to 24 show a sixth embodiment of the invention.
- the proximal end surface ⁇ connects 4a of Applikatorabitess 2, that is the end face facing the coupling portion.
- two support members 5 are fixed in this embodiment, preferably by one-piece manufacture with the end surface 4a of the injection molding process.
- the proximal end face 4a is completely self-contained and thereby retains the cosmetic mass entering the cavity of the cage K.
- the distal end face 4b of the applicator section is essentially completely open and thus offers a large cross-section through which the cosmetic mass can penetrate into the interior of the cage K when the applicator section 2 is re-immersed or reinserted.
- Both support elements 5 are connected by ribs 6, which extend to the other support element 5 respectively of the egg ⁇ NEN carrier element 5, with each other - each rib 6 has a first Rip penfußdazzling 8, with which it is in a first carrier element 5 ⁇ , and a second rib base 9, with which it merges into a second support element 5.
- the ribs 6 are spaced apart, so that in each case between two adjacent in the direction of the longitudinal axis L ribs a passage 7 is formed.
- the ribs 6 are preferably arranged to extend parallel to one another, as shown in FIG. 2 quite well.
- the rib distance RA in this embodiment is at least 1.5 times the rib diameter RD, measured in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis L.
- the cross section of the individual ribs 6 is circular here.
- the cross-sectional area of the individual ribs in coordination with the material used for the ribs is preferably chosen to be so small that the individual ribs are not completely rigid but can be bent by the stripper when stripping a little bit to the side in the direction of the longitudinal axis L of the applicator , This has the consequence that the applicator section after stripping is not presented as a continuous smooth-surfaced cylinder completely filled with the cosmetic mass, but that certain areas are created between the ribs which are free of the stored cosmetic mass.
- each rib in cooperation with the Rip ⁇ penmaterial is dimensioned so that the rib can displace by an amount B in the direction of the longitudinal axis L ⁇ the region of its rib apex.
- the rib apex 10 is the point that lies centrally between the two foot points 8 and 9 of the respective ribs.
- Figure 22 illustrates what is meant here.
- the amount of B is preferably equal to Minim ⁇ least the extent of the individual rib in the direction of the longitudinal axis L and preferably even to twice or even ideal ⁇ enough, at least three times this extension.
- cage K is extremely thin walls in comparison ⁇ relation to its diameter - preferably it is such that the strength of each rib or at least the majority of the individual ribs (seen perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L) nowhere more than 15 % and ideally nowhere more than 10% of the cage diameter.
- cage cross-section is not round, but out of round, as in another, not graphically illustrated embodiment, the same applies, but then understood by the term cage diameter in a non-circular applicator cross-section of the diameter of that imaginary circle having the same area as the actual cage ⁇ figquerites.
- the openings 7 extend in the circumferential direction without interruption over an arc away, which here corresponds to an angle of more than 160 °.
- this configuration makes it possible to guide the applicator at a different angle relative to the eyelashes, resulting in a novel application feeling that is perceived as positive by many test persons.
- the proportion of the outwardly facing rib surface on the entire outer peripheral surface of the cage K is preferably smaller than the imaginary surface occupying the openings 7 on the outer circumferential surface of the cage K, preferably the ratio "rib surface" to "area of breakthroughs" even at less than 40%.
- the production of the ribs or of the entire applicator section there are various expedient methods.
- the production is carried out by injection molding.
- the helical spring is expediently positioned in the injection mold such that each of its ends is embedded in a carrier element.
- the helical spring element does not necessarily have to be round.
- Ver ⁇ application of helical spring elements with a polygonal, in particular square or triangular or elliptic or almond-shaped or oval cross-section is conceivable.
- a round cross section is clearly preferred or alternatively a triangular cross section having the particular advantages already described above.
- Figures 25 to 28 show a seventh embodiment of the invention. This embodiment differs from the first-mentioned embodiment only by the features which will be explained below. Due to this, what has been said above for the sixth embodiment, as far as it is not related to the features from which the seventh embodiment deviates, applies equally to this seventh embodiment.
- the ribs are also formed here by a coil spring which is embedded in the rest of the applicator element.
- the cross section of this coil spring is not circular. Rather, in the case of this helical spring, the cross-sectional extent of the helical spring seen in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L of the applicator is greater by at least a factor of 1.5, better by at least a factor of 2 than viewed in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the applicator , In this manner, the coil spring ribs forms that are less resilient in the radial direction, and simultaneously to the longitudinal axis of the applicator can be by the forces of the scraper in the direction pa rallel ⁇ clearly appreciable ⁇ deflected.
- FIGS. 29 to 32 show an eighth embodiment of the invention.
- the Kupplungsab ⁇ section 3 and the applicator 2 are integrally molded from a KunststoffStoffmaterial.
- the clear internal cross-section of the cage has a slight conicity, ie, the clear internal cross-section of the cage increases slightly towards the distal end of the cage.
- the wall portions of the cage of this applicator to substantially all of the moving ⁇ che wall thickness. Area wise wall sections of the cage are present, which are not broken through and form the carrier elements 5 in this way.
- each rib 6 has a first Rippenfußddling 8 with which it merges gerelement ⁇ in a first Trä, and a second rib base 9, with which it merges into a second carrier element.
- the ribs 6 are spaced apart from each other, so that in each case between two adjacent ribs in the direction of the longitudinal axis L, a passage 7 is formed according to the given definition.
- Each of the ribs has a convex outer surface with a radius of curvature smaller than the radius of curvature of the imaginary circle surrounding the cross section.
- each row forms in the direction of the longitudinal axis L successively arranged ribs has a substantially convex bulge, the protrudes outwardly and having a number of communicating with the interior of the cage passages 7, in which insert the eyelashes in the application.
- the ribs in this construction are characterized in that their bases 8 and 9 (with respect to the longitudinal axis of the applicator) each lie on a smaller diameter than their vertices 10.
- an offset is provided between ribs 6 which follow one another in the circumferential direction.
- a rib is present ⁇ reciprocating centrally on the imaginary circumferential line U, the passage 7 between two subsequent, adjacent ribs 6 ⁇ be exactly or at least approximately centrally divided into, see FIG 31st
- the rib spacing RA in this embodiment is at least 1.5 times, more preferably at least 2 times, the rib diameter or the rib extension RD, measured in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis L.
- the cross section of the individual ribs is here preferably rectangular.
- the cross-sectional area of the individual ribs can be chosen so small in coordination with the material used for the ribs that the individual ribs are not completely rigid, but can be bent by the scraper during stripping a bit to the side in the direction of the longitudinal axis L of the applicator , similar to that already explained above for the first embodiment.
- the ribs in this embodiment are characterized in that they are practically rigid, yield under the influence of the forces of the scraper only by a dimension B, which is smaller than its longitudinal extent rib RD.
- the individual ribs are formed here as circular arcs.
- Figures 33 to 36 show a tenth embodiment of the invention. It completely corresponds to the sixth exemplary embodiment, so that what is said there also applies here identically.
- the difference from the sixth embodiment lies in two things.
- the support elements 5 are provided with retaining means 18 projecting radially outward, which increase the adhesion of the cosmetic composition to the support elements and / or which serve for combing or separating.
- the ribs 6 are with others Retaining means 19 provided in the form of protruding from the ribs projections. Depending on their orientation, these further retaining means 19 serve the same purpose as the retaining means 18. If they are primarily oriented in the longitudinal direction, then they can also serve to hold the eyelashes between the ribs and thus enable better curling.
- the applicator section is designed as a substantially hollow inner cage that is essentially closed in the circumferential direction or preferably completely closed, for accommodating the cosmetic.
- the cosmetic penetrates into the cavity enclosed by the cage and also loads the cage from the inside with the cosmetic to be applied-even if the cosmetic should be so thin-bodied, that when withdrawing the cage from the supply largely flows out of the interior of the cage, also contributes to the surface of the inner cage side to retain additional cosmetic, which is later available for the order.
- the dimensioning of the cavity and the viscosity of the cosmetic are matched to one another, which is about 1/3 or preferably even the überwie ⁇ constricting part of the previously penetrated into the cavity cosmetic remains there even after the extracting and stripping.
- the cage is designed so that it has a number of ne ⁇ adjacent to each other in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the applicator passages for the eyelashes, through which the eyelashes can penetrate into the interior of the cage when the cage is brought to the eye.
- the applicator for applying a relatively high viscosity, used in particular gel or paste cosmetic then the eyelashes come with the still stored inside the cage cosmetic in contact as soon as it passes the passages ha ⁇ ben, otherwise they are in any case with the still at the cage ⁇ fig surface stored cosmetic in contact. In any case, they are wetted lengthwise with the cosmetic, so ⁇ soon they move relative to the passages, because the cage is rotated and / or withdrawn from the eye.
- Such a design of the applicator has, according to From ⁇ interpretation of the applicator in a specific case, various advantages.
- an applicator section can be brought closer to the lid-side end of the eyelashes, thereby facilitating a truly complete treatment of the eyelashes, right up to their lid-side approach.
- the passages extend in the circumferential direction without interruption over an arc, which corresponds to an angle of at least 40 °, better an angle of at least 80 ° and ideally an angle of at least 100 °.
- very long slits that simplify the eyelashes possibly also very steep penetrate into the interior of the cage and come into contact with the mass stored there.
- the passages at least 25%, preferably 50%, ideally account for more than 65% of the surface having the enveloping Man ⁇ teloscopic. This measure also facilitates the entry of the eyelashes into the interior of the cage significantly. The danger that many eyelashes do not come on a passage and can be threaded into the interior of the cage, but virtually rebound on the surface of a rib and are rejected by this, is significantly reduced.
- the distal end surface of the applicator portion has an opening of a ⁇ performing the applicator is pushed into a cosmetic into the interior of the cage through the course, wherein the cross-sectional area of the orifice preferably at least 50 %, better at least 75% of the area occupied by the distal end face.
- a generous opening facilitates entry of the cosmetic into the interior of the cage.
- the proximal end face of the applicator section is completely or at least largely closed in itself.
- the decisive advantage of such an embodiment is that the inserted into the interior of the cage cosmetic composition even when the cage is fully ⁇ constantly filled, accumulates at this proximal end face and is not pushed in the direction of the applicator stem from the cage ⁇ .
- the applicator section has a plurality of support elements, preferably extending substantially in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis, which are connected to one another by spaced-apart ribs, wherein the ribs form passages between them and the ribs are preferably made of a material ⁇ are that is so flexible that the ribs bend under the influence of the force applied by a scraper on her forces by a certain amount in the direction parallel to the longitudinal ⁇ axis.
- the support elements are embodied so strongly that these support elements do not deform or do not deform significantly as the cage passes through a scraper under the influence of the forces exerted on the cage by the scraper. In this way it is ensured that the cage is quite stable so as not to be permanently deformed or even destroyed by the scraper. Instead, the support elements guarantee that the cage after passing through the scraper again and again takes its given him manufacturer's form.
- the distance between two ribs adjacent in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis is greater than the extent of a single rib in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis, preferably by at least a factor of 1.5, ideally at least a factor of 2. In this way it is ensured that as large as possible passages are available for the eyelashes, so that the majority of the eyelashes actually enters the interior of the cage.
- the applicator according to the invention for applying Kos etikum eyelashes with a shaft portion or at least a coupling portion and an applicator, wherein the applicator is formed as circumferentially substantially or completely self-contained, inside hollow cage for receiving the cosmetic, the passageway communicating with the interior of the cage into which the eyelashes are inserted during application, wherein the applicator has cantilever arms projecting freely from the cage at one end for acting on the eyelashes or eyelash graspers.
- FIGS. 37 to 40 Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIGS. 37 to 40.
- This embodiment has a certain relationship with the first embodiment.
- the actual applicator 1 also consists here of an applicator section 2 in the form of the cage K, which is preferably completely coreless, and a coupling section 3, which is explained in more detail below.
- the applicator 1 is coupled to a handle, not shown here, by means of the coupling section 3. which makes a connection with the handle, also not shown here.
- the proximal end face 4a of the applicator section 2 adjoins the coupling section 3, ie the end face, which faces the coupling portion 3. At this proximal ⁇ len end face 4a is in this embodiment even closer to be described cage with 6-sided cross-section integrally formed.
- the proximal end face 4a is completely self-contained and thereby retains the cosmetic mass penetrating into the cavity of the cage K.
- the distal end face 4b of the applicator section is essentially completely open and thus offers a large cross section through which the cosmetic mass can penetrate into the interior of the cage K when re-inserting the applicator section 2.
- the coupling portion 3 and the applicator portion 2 of this embodiment may be integrally molded of a plastic material.
- the clear inner ⁇ cross-section of the cage then has a slight conicity, ie, the clear inner cross-section of the cage increases slightly towards the distal end of the cage.
- the cage has in this embodiment no continuous in the direction of the longitudinal axis formed support structures. Instead, the cage is made up of a number of substantially circumferentially extending rings Ri which leave passages therebetween which provide access to the interior of the cage. Adjacent rings Ri are connected to one another via a plurality of, preferably six struts St extending obliquely to the longitudinal axis. In this way, the passages get from the inside of the cage seen an almond-shaped form by two themselves At two points meeting, to the outside of the passageway convex line are delimited.
- this embodiment leads to the applicator having a number of passages communicating with the interior of the cage in the region of its peripheral tips or via its circumferential slots, into which the eyelashes engage during application.
- the rings Ri are preferably characterized in that their inner extent in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis L is greater than the inside extension of the struts St in the same direction, preferably by at least the factor 2, 0.
- the said rings and preferably (but not always), the said struts are designed so that their extension decreases in the direction of the longitudinal axis in the radially outward direction, so that they usually have a V-shaped cross section V.
- the struts St are dimensioned so thin that they can give elastically resilient under the influence of the forces occurring during application.
- the applicator deforms like a concertina in such a force application by elastically deforming the struts St so that the distance between adjacent rings Ri is smaller.
- Applicator 1 for applying cosmetic to eyelashes with a Shaft portion or at least a coupling portion 3 and an applicator 2, wherein the applicator 2 is formed as circumferentially substantially or completely self-contained inside hollow cage K for receiving the cosmetic, characterized in that the cage in the direction perpendicular to its longitudinal axis L. a polygonal preferably hexagonal or octagonal cross-section and zen in the region of its peripheral Spit a number of communicating with the interior of the cage passages, in which insert the eyelashes in the application.
- eyelashes in this patent application is preferably understood in its narrower sense, ie as "eyelashes of the human eye”.
