Description
"Brosse à mascara perfectionnée" . "Advanced mascara brush".
La présente invention a essentiellement pour objet une brosse à mascara perfectionnée.The present invention essentially relates to an improved mascara brush.
On sait que les brosses à mascara comprennent, d'une manière générale, une tige munie de poils à une extrémité, le reste de la tige constituant une partie formant manche.It is known that mascara brushes generally comprise a rod provided with bristles at one end, the rest of the rod constituting a handle part.
Toutefois, toutes les formes proposées pour les poils présentaient l'inconvénient d'un manque de précision lors de l'application du mascara sur les cils.However, all the forms proposed for the hairs had the drawback of a lack of precision when applying the mascara to the eyelashes.
Aussi, la présente invention a pour but de remédier notamment à cet inconvénient en proposant une brosse permettant une grande précision lors de l'application du mascara, et notamment au niveau des deux commissures de l'oeil.Also, the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback in particular by proposing a brush allowing great precision during the application of the mascara, and in particular at the level of the two corners of the eye.
A cet effet l'invention a pour objet une brosse à mascara perfectionnée comprenant une tige ou analogue munie de poils, caractérisée en ce que l'extrémité de la tige opposée à sa partie formant manche comporte une nappe de poils en forme d'éventail.To this end the invention relates to an improved mascara brush comprising a rod or the like provided with bristles, characterized in that the end of the rod opposite to its part forming a handle comprises a sheet of bristles in the shape of a fan.
L'angle formé par l'éventail de poils précité est compris entre environ 30° et 90°.The angle formed by the aforementioned range of bristles is between approximately 30 ° and 90 °.
Suivant un exemple de réalisation préféré, l'angle précité est compris entre 30° et 60°.According to a preferred embodiment, the above-mentioned angle is between 30 ° and 60 °.
On observera ici qu'une telle brosse à mascara pourra avantageusement être utilisée dans un petit flacon contenant du mascara liquide et comportant notamment un passage rétréci pour assurer l'essorage de la brosse.It will be observed here that such a mascara brush can advantageously be used in a small bottle containing liquid mascara and in particular comprising a narrowed passage to ensure the wringing of the brush.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, l'éventail de poils précité prolonge une nappe de poils sensiblement parallèles, et orthogonaux à la tige.
Ainsi, on ajoute avantageusement à cette nappe de poils parallèles une autre nappe de poils en forme d'éventail assurant la précision voulue pour l'application du mascara au niveau des commissures de l'oeil.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned range of bristles extends a ply of bristles which are substantially parallel, and orthogonal to the rod. Thus, another layer of fan-shaped bristles is advantageously added to this sheet of parallel hairs ensuring the desired precision for the application of the mascara at the corners of the eye.
Suivant un autre mode de réalisation, l'angle formé par l'éventail de poils précité est compris entre environ 30° et 120°.According to another embodiment, the angle formed by the aforementioned range of bristles is between approximately 30 ° and 120 °.
On précisera encore ici que l'éventail de poils précité est fixé sur une partie en forme de secteur solidaire d'une extrémité de la tige.It will also be specified here that the aforementioned range of bristles is fixed to a sector-shaped part integral with one end of the rod.
Mais d'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple, et dans lesquels :However, other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the appended drawings, given solely by way of example, and in which:
La figure 1 est une vue en élévation d'une brosse à mascara conforme à la présente invention.Figure 1 is an elevational view of a mascara brush according to the present invention.
La figure 2 est une vue similaire à la figure 1 mais représentant une variante d'une telle brosse.Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 but showing a variant of such a brush.
La figure 3 est une vue en élévation d'encore une autre variante.Figure 3 is an elevational view of yet another variant.
On voit sur les dessins une petite brosse permettant l'application du mascara sur les cils de l'oeil et comprenant, d'une manière générale, une tige ou analogue 1 munie de poils.We see in the drawings a small brush allowing the application of mascara on the eyelashes of the eye and generally comprising a rod or the like 1 provided with bristles.
Conformément à l'invention, l'extrémité 2 de la tige 1 opposée à sa partie 13 formant manche est munie d'une nappe 3 de poils 4 en forme d'éventail.According to the invention, the end 2 of the rod 1 opposite its part 13 forming a handle is provided with a sheet 3 of bristles 4 in the form of a fan.
Suivant un exemple de réalisation préféré, l'éventail de poils 4 constituant la nappe 3 est fixé sur une partie 5 en forme de secteur plein solidaire de l'extrémité 2 de la tige 1.
Suivant un exemple de réalisation, et comme on le voit bien sur la figure 1 la nappe ou éventail 3 de poils 4 s'étend suivant un angle A sensiblement égal à 90°.According to a preferred embodiment, the fan of bristles 4 constituting the ply 3 is fixed on a part 5 in the form of a solid sector integral with the end 2 of the rod 1. According to an exemplary embodiment, and as can be seen in FIG. 1, the ply or fan 3 of bristles 4 extends at an angle A substantially equal to 90 °.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation visible sur la figure 2, l'angle B formé par l'éventail de poils 4 est sensiblement égal à 45°.In the embodiment visible in FIG. 2, the angle B formed by the range of bristles 4 is substantially equal to 45 °.
Mais on pourrait parfaitement, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, prévoir un angle d'éventail de poils différent des valeurs données ci-dessus et compris entre environ 30 et 90°.However, it would perfectly be possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to provide a bristle fan angle different from the values given above and between approximately 30 and 90 °.
Dans les réalisations visibles sur les figures 1 et 2, on voit que l'éventail 3 de poils 4 fait suite à une nappe 6 de poils 7 sensiblement parallèles.In the embodiments visible in FIGS. 1 and 2, it can be seen that the fan 3 of bristles 4 follows a ply 6 of bristles 7 which are substantially parallel.
Cette nappe 6 de poils 7 prend racine sur la tige 1 de la brosse et s'étend orthogonalement à cette tige.This ply 6 of bristles 7 takes root on the rod 1 of the brush and extends orthogonally to this rod.
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré par la figure 3, on voit que la nappe 3 de poils 4 en forme d'éventail et solidaire du secteur 5 à l'extrémité 2 de la tige 1, forme un angle d'environ 120°, lequel angle pourrait d'ailleurs être plus petit, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the sheet 3 of bristles 4 in the shape of a fan and secured to the sector 5 at the end 2 of the rod 1, forms an angle of approximately 120 °, which angle could also be smaller, without departing from the scope of the invention.
Mais ici, contraitement aux réalisations des figures 1 et 2, il n'est pas prévu que la nappe 3 de poils 4 prolonge ou soit adjacente à une nappe de poils sensiblement parallèles et s 'étendant orthogonalement à la tige 1.But here, contrary to the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2, it is not intended that the ply 3 of bristles 4 extends or is adjacent to a ply of bristles which are substantially parallel and extend orthogonally to the rod 1.
Comme on le comprend de la description qui précède, la brosse visible sur les figures 1 et 2 permettra non seulement un maquillage efficace des cils de l'oeil sur sensiblement toute leur étendue grâce à la nappe 6 de poils 7, mais également une grande précision et efficacité de maquillage des cils au niveau des commissures de l'oeil grâce à la nappe 3 de poils 4 en forme d'éventail, étant entendu que le maquillage des cils pourra être obtenu par
rotation de la brosse autour de l'axe de la tige 1, et/ou par translation de ladite brosse.As can be understood from the above description, the brush visible in FIGS. 1 and 2 will not only allow effective makeup of the eyelashes of the eye over substantially their entire extent thanks to the ply 6 of bristles 7, but also great precision. and effectiveness of making up the eyelashes at the corners of the eye thanks to the ply 3 of bristles 4 in the shape of a fan, it being understood that the make-up of the eyelashes can be obtained by rotation of the brush around the axis of the rod 1, and / or by translation of said brush.
C'est dire que tous les cils de l'oeil lors de la rotation de la brosse, et cela jusqu'aux commissures de l'oeil, pourront à coup sûr être revêtus de mascara.This means that all the eyelashes of the eye during the rotation of the brush, and this up to the corners of the eye, can certainly be coated with mascara.
La variante de brosse représentée sur la figure 3 permettra avantageusement, et comme on le comprend, une focalisation du maquillage en bout, c'est-à-dire au niveau des commissures de l'oeil.The brush variant shown in Figure 3 will advantageously allow, and as we understand, focusing the makeup at the end, that is to say at the corners of the eye.
La brosse de cette invention peut avantageusement être réalisée en une seule pièce moulée en matière plastique appropriée lui donnant en quelque sorte la configuration d'un peigne.The brush of this invention can advantageously be produced in a single piece molded from a suitable plastic material giving it in a way the configuration of a comb.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given only by way of example.
C'est ainsi que l'angle formé par l'éventail de poils à l'extrémité de la brosse pourra être autre que ceux décrits et illustrés, de même que la nappe de poils parallèles, adjacente à l'éventail de poils, pourra comporter des dimensions et une densité de poils quelconque.Thus the angle formed by the range of bristles at the end of the brush may be other than those described and illustrated, as well as the sheet of parallel bristles, adjacent to the range of bristles, may include any size and density of hair.
C'est dire que l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci entrent dans le cadre des revendications qui suivent .
This means that the invention includes all the technical equivalents of the means described, as well as their combinations if these fall within the scope of the claims which follow.
