Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a false eyelash.
  • the prior art false eyelash 103 comprises an extremely thin linear base 101 having approximately 0.5mm width and artificial eyelash transplanted onto the base, which is attached with bonding agent to an eyelid just above an eyelash 122.
  • Another type prior art is, as shown in Fig.13 , adhered spottedly by using tweezers, for example, to a removed part of an eyelash 122 or to other reinforcing sites, at usually one or several points.
  • the prior arts use bonding agent for adhesion of false eyelash, which has the risk that the eye could be damaged. Accordingly, the false eyelash adhering operation should be done with case, which requires prudent attention and take a long time. In some case, the false eyelash is used even though not sufficiently adhered.
  • the prior art false eyelash is linear and, therefore, may be variously deformed when it is to be adhered. It may be deformed in a vertical direction, in a horizontal direction and in any directions in 360 degrees.
  • the false eyelash should be adhered to the lower edge of an upper eyelid, which is difficult enough as it is.
  • the linear false eyelash with full deformability should be adhered to such site. This makes it extremely difficult to fit the false eyelash in position, which requires high-level skill.
  • the prior art false eyelash has a linear or spotly base 101 providing a small area for adhesion, which makes it impossible to wear the false eyelash for a long period of time. It could be detached or slipped off by face-washing.
  • the prior art requires use of solvent-containing bonding agent, when it is to be fitted to the eyelid or while in use, so that a wearer cannot open her eyes for a predetermined time after the false eyelash is adhered, because solvent will volatilize.
  • the linear base especially its opposite end portions may hit against the eyelid, which causes pain to a wearer. Because of the linear body to be attached, it lasts only six hours around at the longest. It would easily be removed by face-washing or tears.
  • Patent Document 2 which, however, still have the following defects.
  • the false eyelash of Patent Document 2 utilizes a base that has been developed for a hair-transplanted wig with a rugged underside. When such base is fitted onto a head, ruggedness on the underside will turn the other way around. Such inversion of ruggedness on the underside can be expected because the wig has relatively wide area for fitting. This, however, is not practically applicable to a false eyelash to be fitted to an eyelid. This is because why an eyelid is one of the thinnest human skin sites, usually having thickness of the order of 10-20 micrometers, which could not bear a great value of pressure applicable to a head when a wig is to be fitted.
  • an adhesive layer only on the convex of the base underside is adhered to the eyelid, but the adhesive layer on the concave is very hard to be adhered to the eyelid.
  • the object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-described defects, more particularly to provide a false eyelash that is easily wearable with hair segments being aligned in good order and is prevented from slippage and separation while in use.
  • a false eyelash according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises an extremely thin base, a bonding layer formed linearly on a surface of the base, a plurality of hair segments individually and separately adhered to the bonding layer, and an adhesive layer formed on an entire underside of the base, said base being formed into a three-dimensional configuration that contours a curved shape of an eyelid to which the base is fitted.
  • the false eyelash according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises an extremely thin base, a bonding layer formed linearly on a surface of the base, a plurality of hair segments individually and separately adhered to the bonding layer, and an adhesive layer formed on an entire underside of the base, said base being formed into substantially a two-dimensional shape.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 is further characterized in that the base is smaller than the eyelid.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 is further characterized in that a base end portion of said base is cutting linearly, and its end portion opposite to said base end portion is cut into a convex arc shape.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 is further characterized in that the thickness of said base is equal to or smaller than 20 micrometers.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 is further characterized in that a root portion of said hair segment is formed to have a curved shape in cross-section.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 6 is further characterized in that said root portion is formed to have a sphere in cross-section.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 7 is further characterized in that said hair segment is cut by a laser beam.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 is further characterized in that a root portion of said hair segment is formed into a planar shape.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 9 is further characterized in that said hair segment is cut by a cutter.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 is further characterized in that said hair segments are adhered to said bonding layer while they are connected and aligned with each other by one or more linear members.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 11 is further characterized in that said hair segments are entwined with said linear members.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 11 is further characterized in that said hair segments are bonded to said linear members.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 12 or Claim 13 is further characterized in that said linear member(s) comprises a single one.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 12 or Claim 13 is further characterized in that said linear member(s) comprises plural ones.
  • the false eyelash according to Claim 12 or Claim 13 is further characterized in that said linear member(s) and said hair segments are formed in one body.
  • the false eyelash according to any one of Claim 6 to Claim 16 is further characterized in that said hair segments are adhered to a lower end portion of said bonding layer.
  • the false eyelash according to any one of Claim 6 to Claim 17 is further characterized in that said root portion of said hair segment is adhered perpendicularly to said bonding layer.
  • the false eyelash according to any one of Claim 6 to Claim 17 is further characterized in that said root portion of said hair segment is adhered aslant to said bonding layer.
  • the false eyelash according to any one of Claim 6 to Claim 17 is further characterized in that a leading end portion of said hair segment is curled outwardly in relation to a base end portion of said base.
  • the base since the base is formed into a three-dimensional configuration that contours a curved shape of the eyelid, it may be fitted tightly to the eyelid. Even when the base is formed into substantially a two-dimensional configuration, the base is extremely thin and, therefore, can be fitted tightly to the eyelid along the curved shape of the eyelid. At this time, the hair segments are firmly adhered to the bonding layer in such manner that they remain linearly attached to the base, by which the false eyelash with the hair segments being kept in well aligned state can easily be fitted to the eyelid.
  • the hair segments are linearly attached to the lower end portion of the base, it can be fitted in such manner that the hair segments are substantially aligned with the own eyelash. Accordingly, the false eyelash could not be distinguished from the own eyelash, providing very good appearance. In addition, the remaining portion of the bonding layer is not visible, providing good visibility.
  • the false eyelash according to the present invention provides a planar, wide area for adhesion, and said wide adhesive area is adhered to an upper eyelid, for example. Accordingly, in addition to the fact that the surfaces of the base held by the user are wide, planar, easily-handled surfaces, it is very easy to position the base end portion to align with the lower edge of the upper eyelid when fitting the false eyelash, thereby greatly saving labor and time required for the fitting operation. Further, the adhesive surface is planar and has a wide area for adhesion to the eyelid, which prevent slippage and separation of the false eyelash while in use.

  • the base 1 is made from elastic material such as polyurethane, tinged with a transparent light skin color and contoured into a three-dimensional configuration in conformity to a curved shape of an eyelid.
  • the base 1 has a space 2a on its surface, which extends along a lower end portion 1c in a lengthwise direction, and also has a bonding layer 4 on the lower end portion 1c, leaving the space 2a. At the opposite ends of the bonding layer 4, there are spaces 2b of substantially equal size.
  • the bonding layer 4 comprises UV-curable agent and is formed linearly on the base 1 (shown in Fig.6(B) ), to which hair segments 3 are adhered.
  • a reference numeral 1d denotes an upper end portion of the base 1, which is formed into a convex arc.
  • an adhesive layer 7 comprising a medical-grade adhesive agent for fitting to a human body.

  • the hair segment unit 3A is cut into the hair segments 3 by a laser beam, which will provide the following effects.
  • Non-contact cutting by the laser beam will prevent the hair segments 3 from unraveling and being scattered in various directions, when cut.
  • the hair segment unit 3A is cut by the laser beam while it remains held by the robot shafts 15, so that it may be cut at the connecting portion with the hair tips maintaining the original curled shape, to thereby separating the hair segments 3 from each other. Accordingly, the hair segments 3 remain in alignment.
  • this spherical root portion 5 may be used as a tab for adhesion, which will make it unnecessary to have a separate step for providing a tab for adhesion to the base 1.
  • any part of the spherical surface of the root portion 5 may be adhered to the bonding layer 4.
  • the hair segments 3 may be firmly adhered to the bonding layer 4, while they remain held by the robot shafts 15, with the tips thereof maintaining the original curled orientation. Accordingly, in spite that the respective hair segments 3 are adhered spottedly, the hair tips will not scatter in various directions, which makes it possible that the hair segments are fixed to the surface of the base 1 while maintaining the original orientation of the hair tips, that is the curled shape thereof as it is. Accordingly, the underside of the base 1 do not have an uneven surface, which was required in the prior arts, thereby preventing entry of water, etc. while in use and preventing displacement and separation of the false eyelash.
  • the hair segments 3 are adhered to the base 1 while maintaining the upwardly curled shape and being separated from each other, once fitted to the eyelid, the upper eyelid 20 will open into a convex arcuate shape so that the root portions 5 of the hair segments 3 adhered will also shaped into a convex arc along the upper eyelid 20. Consequently, the hair segments 3 that have originally been adhered in parallel will become angled radially, thereby enlarging the gaps formed between the hair segments 3.
  • the lines of the hair segments 3 are adhered just above the own eyelash 22, as shown in Fig.8(A) through Fig.8(C) , so that the own eyelash 22 will appear from the enlarged gaps to be in alignment with the lines of the hair segments 3. Accordingly, there is the effect that the false eyelash fitted will be well in harmonization with the own hairs.
  • any part of the spherical surface of the root portion 5 may be adhered to the bonding layer 4. This makes it possible to adjust the angle of adhesion of the hair segments 3, which facilitate grouping of the products depending upon their use and extension of the products. For example, a product wherein the hair segments 3 are adhered to the bonding layer 4 in a crosswise manner will be suitable to the youth because the eyelash looks longer, whereas another produce wherein the hair segments 3 are adhered to the bonding layer 4 in an oblique manner will be suitable to the aged because the eyelash looks thicker.
  • any part of the spherical surface of the root portion 5 may be adhered to the bonding layer 4, which facilitates speedy and effective production.
  • the false eyelash according to the present invention has a wide, planar adhesive surface, and this wide adhesive surface is adhered to the upper eyelid 20.
  • the planar base 1 having the substantially straight-extending base end portion 1c and the convex arcuate leading end portion 1d will be deformed only in one direction (up-and-down direction), as shown in Fig.9 . Deformation in other directions could be ignored in substance.
  • the prior art base is deformable in all directions around 360 degrees.
  • the adhesive surface is planar and has a wide area for adhesion to the upper eyelid 20, which prevent slippage and separation of the false eyelash while in use.
  • the base 1 is formed into a three-dimensional shape that conforms to the curvature of the eyelid onto which the base is fitted, it will further improve good-fit and easy-fit to the upper eyelid 20.
  • the hair segments 3 in clamped condition are cutting linearly by the laser beam, so that the root portions 5 of the hair segments 3 are formed into spherical shape, and any part of the spherical surface of the root portion 5 may be adhered to the bonding layer 4. Accordingly, it may easily be adhered to the upper eyelid 20 while remaining the orientation of the curled hair tips.
  • the base 1 is adhered along the own hair extending from the lower edge of the upper eyelid 20.
  • the root portion 5 of the hair segment 3 is adhered to the lower end portion 4a of the bonding layer 4, which makes it possible to cut the base 1 just along the adhered hair segment 3 with only a small space 2a therebetween. Accordingly, as shown in Fig.8(A) through Fig.8(C) , the hair segment 3 is substantially aligned with the own eyelash 22 and, therefore, could not be distinguished from the own eyelash 22, which provides very good appearance. In addition, the remaining portion of the bonding layer 4 will not come into view, which provides good visibility.
  • the root portion 5 of the hair segment 3 should be adhered to the center of the bonding layer 4, the own eyelash 22 and the hair segment 3 are vertically overlapped with each other to thereby greatly reduce appearance, and the remaining portion of the bonding layer 4 should come into view to thereby worsen the visibility as if it is in a fog. Such is prevented by the present invention.
  • the laser beam R is irradiated from the underside of the base 1. If this cutting operation should be carried out such that, as shown by an alternate long and short dash line in Fig.10(A) , the laser beam R is irradiated at right angle to the base 1, especially just along the line to which the hair segment 3 is adhered, it would damage the hair segment 3 in most cases.
  • the laser beam R should be irradiated at an angle of inclination with respect to the bonding layer 4 (for example, at an angle of 60 degrees inclined to the bonding layer 4) to cut the base 1, as shown by a solid line in Fig.10(A) .
  • This manner of irradiation will prevent the hair segment 3 from being damaged adhered near to the bonding layer 4.
  • whole or a part of the adhesive layer 7a formed on the underside of the base 1 would melt, so that it could separate or partly peel off from the underside. Under such conditions, even when it is fitted to the upper eyelid, the fittability to the upper eyelid should be lost, which reduce the fitting power.
  • a part of the base 1 peels off from the upper eyelid, there is formed a gap between the base 1 and the upper eyelid, so that it really looks a false eyelash, which can easily be distinguished over the natural hair in appearance.
  • a solid line in Fig.10(B) there is the space 2a on a site corresponding to the lower end portion 1c of the surface of the base 1 along the longitudinal direction, and the spaces 2b of equivalent size at the opposite ends of the bonding layer 4. Accordingly, even if the laser beam R is irradiated at a slant angle (for example, about 60 degrees to the base 1) to a site to be formed as the lower end portion 1c, it will not damage the hair segment 3.
  • the output of the laser beam R may be small, which prevents melting of the adhesive layer 7 in the vicinity to the irradiated area. Accordingly, it prevents removal of the fitted false eyelash from the upper eyelid and separation of the hair segments 3 from the base 1.
  • the hair segments 3 are adhered to the base 1 just along the lower edge thereof, leaving the small space 2a that is hardly be recognized by the naked eyes. Accordingly, as shown in Fig.8(A) through Fig.8(C) , the hair segment 3 is substantially aligned with the own eyelash 22 and, therefore, could not be distinguished from the own eyelash 22, which provides very good appearance. In addition, the remaining portion of the bonding layer 4 will not come into view, which provides good visibility. If the hair segment 3 should be adhered not just along with the lower edge of the base 1, the own eyelash 22 and the hair segment 3 are vertically overlapped with each other to thereby greatly reduce appearance, and the remaining portion of the bonding layer 4 should come into view to thereby worsen the visibility as if it is in a fog.
