Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cosmetic applicator. More particularly, the present invention relates to a mascara brush with improved bristle fibers .
  • Applicator brushes including mascara brushes, are known in the art.
  • a mascara applicator brush is inserted into a container having a reservoir of mascara or cosmetic medium.
  • the bristle fibers pick up the mascara or cosmetic medium and carry it from the container for application onto the user's eyelashes.
  • Such applicators are shown in, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,365,642 to Costa, U.S. Patent No. 4,733,425 to Hartel, et al., and U.S. Patent No. 4,887,622 to Gueret .
  • prior art mascara brushes tend to focus improvements on increasing the loading capacity of the brush.
  • Loading is a term of art that refers to the mascara carrying capacity of the brush or bristle fibers. Basically, loading is the characteristic of the amount of cosmetic medium left on the brush when removed from the reservoir.
  • the prior art focuses upon an optimal amount of product load such that a finished appearance may be expeditiously accomplished in as few strokes as possible.
  • the prior art focuses upon the bristle head and the bristle fibers by varying the lengths and physical geometry of the bristle fibers to achieve improved loading of the brush.
  • the user may not only desire to increase the load characteristics of the bristle fibers, but also to apply cosmetic medium in a comfortable manner. Since the skin is tender on the face and mascara application is performed near the eyes, rough bristle fibers and abrasive materials are disfavored.
  • the prior art has attempted to solve some of these problems by increasing the flexibility attributes of the brush core. However, increased flexibility of the brush core is insufficient.
  • improved bristle fibers rather than conventional fibers or bristles, improved softness, surface characteristics and flexibility can be achieved, while maintaining the necessary structural stiffness to allow the user to better control the bristle fibers and improve combing and loading characteristics of the bristle fibers.
  • the applicator brush has a brush core and a number of bristles or bristle fibers extending, preferably radially, from the brush core.
  • the bristle fibers are co-extruded with protruberances or indentations, preferably random indentations, for surface structure.
  • the bristle fibers have an additive such as an antibacterial agent.
  • the bristle fibers are made of a thermoplastic or thermoelastic material .
  • the bristle fibers achieve improved performance characteristics such as improved antibacterial qualities, improved fiber surface structure, improved combing and improved loading characteristics over applicator brushes known in the art. In this manner, better application characteristics are achieved for the benefit of the user.
  • Fig. 1 is a partially cross-sectional side view of an improved mascara brush of the present invention.
  • Figs. 2 to 8 are perspective views of various bristle fibers for use in a preferred embodiment of the improved mascara brush of Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 9 is a side view of a mascara brush of the present invention.
  • Fig. 10 is an exploded view of a bristle fiber end as shown in Fig. 9.
  • Figs. 11 to 14 are perspective views of yet further bristle fibers for use in a preferred embodiment of the improved mascara brush of Fig. 1.
  • an applicator brush generally represented by reference numeral 10.
  • the applicator brush preferably a mascara applicator brush, 10 can be removably secured, or made an integral part of, a cap 20.
  • Cap 20 is removably securable to a container 15 so that brush 10 is positioned in the container.
  • the brush 10 has a brush core 25 and one or more types of bristles or bristle fibers 30 extending from the brush core .
  • the container 15 may have any elongated shape in order to accommodate brush 10.
  • the cap 20 has a lower end 60 that receives brush core 25.
  • the container 15 has a cylindrical outer wall 35 and cylindrical inner wall 40 defining a product storage chamber 45 that can receive bristle fibers 30 of mascara brush 10.
  • An exemplary aspect of product storage chamber 45 is that the chamber has a volume that holds a suitable amount of mascara or cosmetic medium therein for repeated application of mascara.
  • the container 15 and cap 20 may be made of a thermoplastic material or any other solid material.

In this manner, bristle fibers 30 are positioned into liquid cosmetic medium disposed in chamber 45 when cap 20 is secured to container 15.
  • brush core 25 may have a cylindrical configuration of bristle fibers 30 suitably flexible for the user to apply cosmetic medium to the user's eyelashes.
  • An exemplary aspect of brush core 25 is that the brush core may be twisted about a longitudinal axis 70 to displace bristle fibers 30 trapped therebetween, and thereby distribute cosmetic medium to user's eyelashes.
  • the brush core 25 preferably has a diameter that is about 0.0157 inches to about 0.0355 inches.
  • the bristle fibers 30 radially extend from brush core 25.
  • the bristle fibers 30 may be formed by one or more of the filaments sold under the trade name Pedex & Co. GmbH from Pedex High Tech Filaments. These filaments are covered by U.S. Patent No. 6,163,918, U.S. Patent No. 6,048,478 to Weihrauch, and U.S. Patent No. 5,540, 873 to Knapp .
  • the bristle fibers 30 may have a diameter about 0.002 to about 0.015 inches, preferably about 0.005 inches to about 0.008 inches.
