Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric mascara brush, and more particularly to an electric mascara brush that can vibrate and counter rotate.
- Some of the conventional electric mascara brushes have a vibration motor, which has an axle attached with a counterweight block.
- the counterweight block provides the axle with a centrifugal force and makes the axle to vibrate.
- the main object of the present invention is to modify conventional electric mascara brushes to fulfill user's needs.
- the electric mascara brush of the present invention is characterised in that:
- the rod is sleeved with a gasket, so that the gasket blocks the opening and seals the liquid chamber when the main body is affixed to the bottle.
- the rod can be driven by the DC motor to vibrate as well as rotate, and the mascara liquid in the liquid chamber does not leak due to the gasket. Therefore, the users' needs can be satisfied.
- An electric mascara brush that can vibrate and counter rotate includes a main body 1, a rod 2, a bottle 3, a collar 4 and an end cap 5.
- the brush may further include a hand grip 8 sleeving around the main body 1 and the collar 4.
- the main body 1 defines a receiving space 11 therein and has a power source 14 and a reversible DC motor 12 which are disposed in the receiving space 11, in which the power source 14 electrically connects to the reversible DC motor 12.
- a switch 13 is disposed between the power source 14 and the DC motor 12.
- the switch 13 selectively electrically connects the power source 14 with the DC motor 12 and controls a direction of a current flow of the DC motor 12, so that the DC motor 12 selectively turns normally or reversely.
- the switch 13 is preferably provides three adjusting positions, which are a close position, a normal position and a reverse position, for the user to choose from.
- the DC motor 12 includes a rotor 121 and an axle 122, and may further include a stator (field magnet), a brush and a rectifier.
- the rotor 121 can rotate about the axle 122, and it is provided with at least one counterweight block 123 so that the center of mass of the rotor 121 is offset from the axle 122.
- the rotor 121 of the present embodiment includes three winding sets 124, each of which makes an angle of 120 degrees to its adjacent one.
- a gap 125 is defined between every two of the winding sets 124, and the counterweight blocks 123 are disposed in two of the gaps 125 so as to make the center of mass of the rotor offset from the axle 122.
- the main body 1 includes an upper part 101 and a lower part 102 pivoting to the upper part 101 so that the main body 1 can be opened.
- the receiving space 11 is, therefore, defined between the upper and lower parts 101 and 102.
- an annular rim may axially extend from a front end of the main body 1 toward the bottle 3, as shown in Fig. 3 , or the annular rim may extend from the collar 4 toward the bottle 3 instead, as shown in Fig. 1 .
- the rod 2 has a first end 21 and a second end 22, in which the first end 21 is directly or indirectly attached to the axle 122 in a rotational operative relationship, and the second end 22 is attached with an applicator head 23.
- the rod 2 is rotated when the axle 122 rotates.
- a deceleration mechanism 6 is provided between the axle 122 and the rod 2 to adjust the revolution ratio of the rod 2 and the axle 122.
- a connector 7 is then provided between the deceleration mechanism 6 and the rod 2.
- the connector 7 and the rod 2 is formed in one-piece, yet the two elements may be separately formed.
- the deceleration mechanism 6 has a non-circular axle 61, and the connector 7 (or the first end 21 of the rod 2) is formed with a non-circular bore 71 to receive the non-circular axle 61 therein, so that the rod 2 and the non-circular axle 61 can be in a rotational operative relationship, more particularly, can rotate simultaneously.
- the rod 2 is further sleeved with a gasket 24, so that the gasket 24 can block the opening 32 of the bottle 3 and seals the liquid chamber 31 when the main body 1 is affixed to the bottle 3. More specifically, the rod 2 is formed with a waist portion 25 with a smaller diameter, and the gasket 24 has a joint section 241 and a skirt section 242.
- the joint section 241 has a bore diameter corresponding to the waist portion 25, and the skirt section 242 has a bore diameter larger than that of the joint section 241.
- the joint section 241 sleeves around the waist portion 25 and the gasket 24 is affixed on the rod 2.
- the rod 2 is further formed with a neck portion 26 with a smaller diameter, and the neck portion 26 locates between the waist portion 25 and the applicator head 23.
- the bottle 3 defines a liquid chamber 31 and an opening 32 disposed on one end of the bottle 3.
- the opening 32 communicates with the liquid chamber 31.
- the rod 2 extends into the liquid chamber 31 through the opening 32.
- the opening 32 is disposed with an annular wiper 33 through which the rod 2 extends into the liquid chamber 31, in which the wiper 33 and the gasket 24 are both made from soft resilient material.
- a front end of the skirt section 24 seals the wiper 33 when the main body 1 is affixed to the bottle 3.
- the hardness of the gasket 24 is bigger than that of the wiper 33 so as to achieve better sealing effect.
- the wiper 33 has a bore diameter corresponding to the rod 2 to wipe off the mascara liquid adhered to the rod 2.
- the collar 4 is disposed at a front end of the main body 1, and the collar 4 is formed with inner threads.
- the bottle 3 is formed with outer threads around the opening 32 to mate with the inner threads of the collar 4. More specifically, the collar 4 defines a larger-diametered bore 41 and a small-diametered bore 42 which communicate with each other.
- the collar 4 has an inner wall 43 away from the bottle 3, and the smaller-diametered bore 42 is formed on the inner wall 43.
- the collar 4 is further formed with an annular rim 44 surrounding the smaller-diametered bore 42 and extending from the inner wall 43 toward the bottle 3.
- the skirt section 242 of the gasket 24 sleeves around the annular rim 44 to further prohibit the mascara liquid from entering the receiving space 11 of the main body 1.
- the end cap 5 rotatably sleeves around the main body 1, and the end cap 5 has an inner surface being formed with two protrusions 51, as shown in Fig. 2 .
- the main body 1 is formed with a transverse slot 15, and the switch 13 is slidably disposed in the slot 15 and is sandwiched between the protrusions 51, as shown in Fig. 3A .
- the protrusions 51 drive the switch 13 to slide along the slot 15 as the end cap 5 is turned, thereby the switch 13 selectively electrically connects the power source 14 with the DC motor 12 and controls the direction of the current flow.
- the inner surface of the end cap 5 is formed with several round grooves, and the main body 1 has an outer surface being formed with a point selectively engaging with one of the round grooves.
- the switch 13 locates either at the close position, the normal position or the reverse position.
- a connecting means is provided between the end cap 5 and the main body 1 to combine these two elements together.
- an automatic power off (APO) IC is provided to connect the power source with the DC motor.
- the APO IC is used to detect whether the DC motor functions well or not. In some occasions, the DC motor may run idle when the gasket is tightly engaged with the wiper. Thus, the APO IC can automatically power off the DC motor to prevent it from damage.
- the counterweight blocks are disposed on the rotor instead of the axle, so that he DC motor may have a smaller volume and become vibratable.
- the gasket is advantageous in prohibiting the mascara liquid from leakage. As a result, the mascara liquid will have little chance to coagulate between the threads or between the rotatable element and the non-rotatable element, which will further reduce the possibility of malfunctions of the electric mascara brush.
