Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a mascara applicator that is attached to the lid of a mascara container and used to deposit mascara and apply it to eyelashes.

Prior Art Mascara applicators have been widely used in which a large number of horizontal grooves are formed on the peripheral surface of the tip of a shaft, and there are also known mascara applicators in which the horizontal grooves are of different sizes on each half of the shaft. (Jitsukai 61-86112)
Publication No.).

Problems to be Solved by the Invention This mascara applicator consisting of horizontal grooves can contain a large amount of mascara and has the advantage of being able to deposit a large amount of mascara on the eyelashes in one application, but it is possible to apply a small amount of mascara, The drawback is that detailed corrections are difficult.

Although the above-mentioned applicator in which the size of the lateral grooves is made different for each part partially improves this disadvantage, it is still insufficient. Further, since the horizontal grooves are almost invisible when mascara is applied, it is difficult to select a desired area, and it is possible to accidentally apply more mascara than necessary.

Therefore, the present invention solves this inconvenience and realizes a mascara applicator that can make small corrections, especially separating eyelashes bundled with mascara, and also prevents mistakes in the amount of application. .

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention forms a large number of grooves extending substantially laterally on the circumferential surface of the tip end of the shaft body and capable of containing and applying mascara, and the grooves are formed around half the circumference of the shaft body. The size of each surface is different, so the content and amount of mascara applied is different for each part, and the tip of this shaft is equipped with a comb that can make fine adjustments to the application state. This mascara applicator is provided with a display indicating the size of the groove near the groove.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments illustrating the present invention will be described in detail. In this mascara applicator 10, the shaft body 11 is made of a round bar and is attached to a lid (not shown) of a mascara container that serves as a grip. This shaft body 1
1 has a large number of grooves 12 extending in the horizontal direction on the circumferential surface of the distal end thereof.
a, 12b are formed, and among these grooves, the groove 12a located on one half of the circumference of the shaft body 11 is formed so that the width and depth of each groove are larger than those of the groove 12b located on the other half of the circumference. ing. These grooves 12
The inner parts 13a and 13b of a and 12b have a rectangular cross section, and the plate pieces 14a and 14 between the grooves
The tip of b has a sharp cross-sectional shape. The tip of the shaft body 11 is flat and has a comb 15 formed therein. In a portion of the shaft body 11 near the grooves 12a and 12b, an indication 16a consisting of a large circular recess is formed in the front position of the large groove 12a, and an indication 16b consisting of a small circular recess is formed in the front position of the small groove 12b. ing.

Since this mascara applicator 10 has the above configuration, when mascara is applied, a large amount of mascara is contained in the large grooves 12a and a small amount is contained in the small grooves 12b, so a large amount of mascara is applied using the large grooves 12a. The small grooves 12b can be used to apply a small amount of mascara, and the comb 15 can be used to spread mascara to small areas such as the outer corner of the eyelashes, or to separate eyelashes that are bunched together by a large amount of mascara. You can make small corrections such as

Furthermore, in this example, the inner parts 13a and 13b of the groove are rectangular, and have the characteristic of containing a large amount of mascara compared to the size of the groove.Using this characteristic, the entire groove can be miniaturized, and the mascara can be applied to the eyelashes. It is possible to concentrate the adhesion on the eyelashes and prevent the phenomenon of clumping the eyelashes. Furthermore, since the tips of the plate pieces 14a, 14b between the grooves are sharp, the eyelashes bundled with mascara can be separated at these tips. Furthermore, when mascara adheres to the grooves 12a and 12b, it becomes difficult to determine the size of the grooves, but in this example, since indications 16a and 16b are provided, the grooves can be easily distinguished and used appropriately. .

In the above embodiments, the widths and depths of the grooves are made different in order to make the size of the grooves different, but it is also possible to make only one of the width or depth different, or the shape of the grooves. The mascara may be different, and the mascara content and application amount may be different.

It goes without saying that the shape of the grooves, the shape of the plate between the grooves, and the shape of the display are not limited to those in this example, and the mascara applicator of the present invention can be realized with other configurations.

Effects of the invention As mentioned above, the mascara applicator of the present invention has a comb in addition to grooves of different sizes, so after applying a large amount or a small amount of mascara using the grooves, use the comb This makes it possible to make detailed corrections to the coating condition, making it extremely easy to use.

In addition, if the deep part of the groove has a square cross-section and the tip of the plate of the groove has a sharp cross-section, it is possible to prevent the eyelashes from becoming bundled with mascara.
A more beautiful finish is achieved.

Furthermore, there is a display indicating the size of the groove, so
Even if the mascara is deposited and the grooves become difficult to see, the desired area is definitely selected and applied, and excessive mascara is not applied by mistake.
