Definitions
- the invention relates to an applicator for applying a product, in particular cosmetic or dermatological, on a surface such as the skin.
- This applicator is of the type with an application member secured to a gripping element, and capable of allow the transfer of the product to be applied from a surface of application on a surface to be treated.
- the nature of the applicator member is chosen according to the consistency of the product to be applied, and the amount of product to be transferred, which product can be taken from a product tank.
- Patent applications EP-A-0 761 125 and FR-A-2 701 196 propose a applicator, comprising, a gripping portion and an application portion, articulated one on the other.
- the applicators described in these documents have the disadvantage that they can only be used for a range of specific mascara or nail polish products.
- the applicator is housed, frequently, in a relatively small compartment. Therefore, the dimension of the applicator member cannot exceed a certain dimension, and can therefore only cover a wide area during application of the product relatively small. Indeed, an application member, having a surface relatively wide application, is too bulky to be housed in a makeup case, especially when it must be transportable in a bag hand.
- a mascara applicator having an applicator part intended to be loaded with product and the diameter can be increased.
- the applicator part comprises a body forming a hollow elastomer sleeve.
- a compression device passes through the sleeve allowing, by a pressure exerted parallel to the application surface, to modify the external contours of the applicator part.
- This type of applicator is designed for applying a specific product to eyelashes and cannot be used for spreading a product on a support such as the skin.
- Such mechanism offers little latitude for surface deformations of application obtainable.
- its mounting is relatively complicated and its reliability very uncertain.
- Document US-A-4,701,168 describes an application assembly comprising a application surface capable of being impregnated with a liquid product.
- This product liquid is packaged in a frangible housing.
- the application surface is mounted on a flexible support, which support is integral with two legs parallel, emerging perpendicularly from the support. When these legs are close together, by pinching between the fingers of a user, the frangible housing is pierced and the application surface is impregnated with the liquid. During the action of compression of the legs, the support deforms, causing a bulge temporary application surface.
- a major drawback of this device is that, during many bending over use, the support and / or the legs may break, following the fatigue of the material constituting them. In addition, it is necessary to maintain compression on the legs to have the curved surface. Indeed, when the compression of the legs ceases, the application surface resumes its initial setting. Furthermore, this device does not make it possible to adjust a reproducible configuration of the application surface. Finally, the use of this type of applicator is not practical, and its bulk requires a bulky packaging.
- the present invention seeks to remedy the drawbacks of applicators in the art prior.
- the invention relates to an applicator the application organ of which has a variable orientation, with respect to the orientation of the gripping element.
- the present invention aims to provide an applicator whose size can be minimized in a first position of storage, and able to occupy a second position of use in which its bulk is more important.

- the ability of the application support to bend in response to the action of the organ maneuver, and to return by elasticity to its initial form, when the stress, is related to the elasticity of the material constituting said application support.
- the bending ability of such a material can also be characterized by its flexural module.
- the materials contemplated by the invention have a flexural modulus at most equal to 200 MPa (Young's modulus in bending).
- the flexibility can result from the nature of the material forming said support. application and / or its configuration. When said application medium is made of foam, flexibility also depends on the density of the foam (size and number of cells).
- the application surface, in the position of storage is substantially flat, while, in the position of use, it is noticeably domed.
- the free end of the operating member coming into engagement with the support application may have various contours, depending on the profile wishes to give to the application surface, in the position of use.
- the free end of the actuator causes, depending on the position angular of the gripping element with respect to the orientation of the support of application, a more or less pronounced modification of the surface profile of application.
