Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention is mainly applicable to applications where a highly viscous coating liquid is applied using a brush or an application member made of an easily deformable material such as a foam, specifically nail polish, eyeliner, etc. Heavy-duty utensils used for applying cosmetics such as

Conventional technology Conventionally, as an applicator used for such purposes, an extrusion piston is provided in the coating liquid tank, and this piston is moved by an external operation to push out the lint liquid to an application member such as a brush. something is known.

In addition, as a writing instrument for stationery, a pressurized coating liquid is stored in a tank, and a coating material such as felt is pressed against the material to be coated such as paper to open the valve and allow the coating liquid to flow out. Nishida applicators are also known.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention With the piston-operating applicator described above, the piston must be moved with great force every time there is insufficient coating liquid in the wall fabric, which is extremely inconvenient.

In the applicator used as the writing implement for stationery mentioned above, the coating liquid easily flows out, but it is necessary to use a hard material as a material for spilling, and the applicator used as a writing implement for stationery etc. It cannot be applied on the road.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention has been devised for the purpose of providing an applicator that can easily drain and replenish a coating liquid while using an easily deformable applicator such as a brush.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides a tank for storing a coating liquid under pressure, a valve provided in the tank and opened manually from the outside to drain the coating liquid, and a valve for discharging the coating liquid from the valve. This applicator is characterized by having an applicator member made of an easily deformable material such as a brush to which a spilled coating liquid can be attached and applied.

EXAMPLES Two examples illustrating the present invention will now be described in detail.

FIG. 1 shows an applicator 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In this applicator 10, a tank 11 is provided in a cartridge 12, stores a coating liquid 13 therein, and has an extrusion piston 14 at the rear end.

This cartridge 12 is housed in the applicator main body 15,
At this time, the piston 17 is pushed by the spring 16 provided at the rear of the applicator main body, so that the application liquid 1 in the tank 11
3 is in a pressurized state. Reference numeral 17 denotes a valve, which is formed by pressing a valve body 20 formed at the rear end of the shaft body 19 against the mouth end of the tip pore 18 of the tank 1 by means of a spring 21. This shaft body 19 is formed with a passage 22 that communicates the front periphery and the tip of the valve body 20, and when this shaft body J9 is moved forward against the spring 21, the valve body 20 moves to the tip end of the tank 11. Away from the mouth end of the hole 18, the valve 17 opens and the coating liquid 13 flows out through the passage 22.

Reference numeral 23 designates an operation button, which is supported by a leaf spring 24 and protrudes outward from the peripheral surface of the distal end of the applicator main body 15, the rear end of which abuts against a slope 25 of a bulge formed around the shaft body 19. ,
The shaft body 19 can be moved forward by pushing from the outside with a finger. Reference numeral 26 denotes a lining member, which is made of a synthetic fiber brush, which is inserted into the hole 27 formed at the rear end by holding the molten and solidified brim-like part at the rear and making several holes at the tip of the rag body 15. The tip of the shaft body 19 is inserted into. Although not shown, a cap is provided and can cover the tip of the main body 15.

Since this applicator 10 has the above-described configuration, when the operation button 23 is pressed with a finger, the shaft body 19 moves forward, the valve 17 opens, and the application liquid 13 in the tank 11 flows out into the 1 passage 22.
It operates to replenish the applicator 26 through the process.

FIG. 2 shows an applicator 30 of a second embodiment. This applicator 3
0, 31 is a tank, which is provided within the writing instrument main body 32, and stores a coating liquid 33 and pressurized gas 34 therein. 35 is a valve, which is located on the inner surface of the mouth end of the tank 31;
A valve body 37 formed at the rear end of the shaft body 36 is pressed forward from the inner surface of the tank by the pressure inside the tank 31 and the spring 38, and when the shaft body 36 is moved rearward, it opens and the coating liquid 3 is released.
3 flows out through the periphery of the valve body 37 and the shaft body 36. 3
Reference numeral 9 denotes an operation button, which protrudes to the outside through a rubber membrane 40 stretched around the tip of the applicator main body 32, and a slope 41 of a bulge provided at the tip of the shaft body 36 at the back. comes into contact with
The υ shaft body 36 can be moved rearward by pushing from the outside with a finger. Reference numeral 42 denotes an applicator, which is attached to the tip of the cloth main body 32, which is made of foam or the like. Although not shown, a cap is provided, and this applicator main body 32
The tip can be covered.

Since this applicator 30 has the above-described configuration, when the operation button 39 is pressed with a finger, the shaft body 36 moves rearward, the valve 35 opens, and the application liquid 33 flows out to replenish the application member 42. Operate.

In the above embodiment, a spring-biased extrusion piston and pressurized gas were used to pressurize the coating liquid, but if the coating liquid is volatile, the volatile components of the coating liquid itself may be used to pressurize the coating liquid. It's okay.

Any configuration of the valve can be used, such as one that opens by pulling it out of the tank, one that opens by pushing it into the tank, or one that opens by tilting the valve body.The valve operation means can also be a push button as shown in the example. In addition, various types of levers such as swing levers and slide levers can be used, and the number of such levers may be not only one but two or more so that the valve can be opened with either of them. The position of is also arbitrary. It is convenient to provide the operating means at the tip of the applicator body as shown in the figure, since it can be operated without changing hands during application.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the applicator of the present invention can pressurize the coating liquid and simply operate the operation button or the like to open the valve to allow it to flow out and replenish the coating member. Replenishment operations are extremely light, easy to handle, and convenient to use.

Moreover, since an easily deformable material such as a brush or foam material is used as the application member, it can be applied to applications that require delicate application conditions, such as nail polish, eyeliner, and foundation.
