Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cosmetic unit according to the preamble of claim 1, in particular in the form of a mascara unit.
  • Such cosmetic units typically include a reservoir containing the cosmetic. In this reservoir and thus also in the cosmetic typically enters an applicator. Most of this applicator is attached by means of a shaft to the cap of the cosmetic unit. As a rule, the applicator dips into the supply of the cosmetic, if and while it is in its stowed position.
  • the applicator is pulled through a wiper, which is typically located in the neck or mouth of the cosmetic container.
  • the applicator is freed from a good part of the cosmetic, which he has stored by his immersion in the cosmetics stock between his bristles, fingers or other order organs.
  • Such a stripping is mandatory, otherwise the applicator would usually remain too heavily loaded with the cosmetic in order to achieve a clean cosmetic order hereby.
  • the difficulty or challenge lies in designing the wiping effect exactly so that the wiper result of the wiper finds the widest possible acceptance among the users. Even if this is successful, however, it is in many cases unsatisfactory that the wiping action of a normal wiper can not be easily adapted to the current needs of the respective user, which can change from case to case.
  • adjustable scrapers in which the user - for example, by rotating the scraper in a certain position - the diameter of the actual wiping effect inducing scraper lips can vary.
  • adjustable scrapers have disadvantages. For one, they are usually constructed in several parts and therefore expensive, on the other hand, they can stick over time, especially if the scraper is not adjusted for a long time.
  • many of the adjustable scrapers are infinitely adjustable and therefore require that after the purchase of the product once closer to the possibilities of the adjustable scraper deal to determine which of the many adjustment positions in about a stripping effect that meets their own needs and how the wiping action changes when you adjust the adjustable scraper intended in the one or the other direction.
  • a cosmetic unit in particular a mascara unit, is provided with a storage container for storing the cosmetic to be applied, an applicator which preferably dips into the cosmetic in its stowed position, and a stripper device which wipes off a portion of the cosmetic absorbed by the applicator when it is immersed wherein the wiper device consists of a plurality of wipers which produce a different wiping action and through which the applicator can alternatively be passed.
  • the applicator only has to be passed through any of the various wipers to extract it from the cosmetic supply.
  • the user can choose when re-closing the cosmetic container, through which the scraper it brings the scraper back to its stowed position.
  • the user will need to guide the applicator through a predetermined one of the different scrapers to bring it back to its stowed position.
  • the applicator can then only be guided through the other scrapers in order to change its loading, but not to finally close the cosmetic unit again.
  • the user can first apply a certain amount of the cosmetic mass after pulling out the applicator and only later, when the mass application has been provisionally completed, pull the applicator through another wiper, which due to its design moves the applicator so far from the still remaining on him cosmetic freed that he can now be used for example as a comb, such as for separating or shaping the eyelashes.
  • the plurality of scrapers each rigid scraper whose Abstreifrial can not be changed and their stripping effect differs from each other, preferably in that the Abstreif Sign generating wiper lips of the individual scrapers each have a different clear diameter.
  • Such a design facilitates handling, the user can without having to worry about the function of the / the wiper, comfortably achieve different wiper results.
  • the plurality of scrapers are formed in a single, one-piece scraper body, which is manufacturing technology and cost considerations (disposable) of great advantage.
  • the plurality of scrapers are formed in a single, one-piece scraper body, which is manufacturing technology and cost considerations (disposable) of great advantage.
  • can also different Scrapers are used in designated openings.
  • the one-piece stripper body circumferentially bounds a forecourt, in which open a plurality of scrapers with their relative to the wiper lip distal end.
  • a courtyard prevents the formation of splashes when pulling out of the applicator by the scraper.
  • an atrium facilitates the reliable sealing, also in relation to the in the closed position not penetrated by an applicator handle and therefore having a large free cross-section and thus prone to leakage of the cosmetic scraper openings.
  • the scraper body in the area in which it bounds the forecourt an increased wall thickness. This favors its sealing function, but usually also facilitates its reliable attachment in the mouth of the reservoir.
  • the stripper body in the region in which it borders the forecourt forms a sealing seat, against which a cover surface associated with the sealing surface can be brought into sealing contact.
  • the Ausgestaltun this seal seat is a conical or wedge seat with a relative to the container longitudinal axis L by the angle W of 0.5 ° to 7 ° inclined sealing surface.
  • Protection is also claimed for a multiple scraper for insertion into a cosmetic unit as such, consisting of a preferably one-piece scraper body with a plurality of scrapers, which produce a different wiping action and which are suitable and intended for alternatively performing an applicator.
  • the cosmetic unit 1 of the invention consists of a reservoir 2 and a lid 3.
  • the cosmetic unit 1 is a so-called sales unit, so no container for laboratory purposes, but a shapely, yet reasonably priced disposable container, preferably made Plastic with a wall thickness between 0.3 and 1.5 mm.
  • the lid 3 as soon as it is in its closed position, not be rotatable relative to the reservoir 2, but it is locked for closing the same stationary on reservoir 2 and placed and preferably fixed by additional retaining clips 14 and holding means.
  • the distal, d. H. the end facing away from the lid carries an applicator 5.
  • the stem on its side facing away from the applicator expediently a pot-like sprue, by means of which it is connected to a shell 13, preferably latched or glued, with which he forms the lid 3.
  • both the edge of the opening 6 and the Abstreifer Sciences 7 are each provided with at least one corresponding latching member and a corresponding recess.
  • the stripper body 7 is here designed as a one-piece plastic part, which forms three individual scrapers preferably of conventional design, which are arranged side by side along a line B - B, d. H. whose scraper longitudinal axes 8 forming the respective center of the scraper all intersect the line B - B.
  • the three wipers differ only or essentially by the stripping effective diameter of their wiper lip.
  • the Abstreiferpö réelle can also have different geometries.
  • the in figure 3 to be recognized mainly to be used, because the insertion of the applicator in the cosmetic unit enabling scrapers have a wiper lip whose light diameter is the largest.
  • the two other scrapers which are preferably arranged on the left and right of the here in the middle, mainly to be used scraper, each have a wiper lip whose light diameter is slightly smaller.
  • the middle scraper has proved to be favorable to equip the middle scraper with a diameter R1 defining its radius and one of the adjacent scrapers with a corresponding radius R2 of at least 5%, better at least 7.5% smaller than the radius R1 and other of the adjacent scrapers with a corresponding radius R3 of at least 10%, better at least 15% smaller than the radius R1.
  • the opening 6 reservoir has for this purpose a clear cross-section, which is greater than the clear cross-section of the adjoining the opening 6 remainder of the reservoir. Which circumstances it has, will be explained in more detail.
  • the reservoir is not completely round, but at least in the region of its opening 6 has a cross-section which is longer in a first direction Ri1 by at least a factor of 1.5, better even by at least the actuator 1.75, than in a perpendicular thereto second direction Ri2.
  • the side of the lid 3, which cooperates with the opening 6 of the reservoir, is designed accordingly.
  • At its side facing away from the opening 6 in the cross-section of the reservoir 2 preferably tapers so that the reservoir is slimmer in the direction of its side facing away from the opening 6, as already mentioned above.
  • the reservoir 2 is tapered so that the applicator can only be pushed so deep into the reservoir 2 by the main use, here middle of the three scrapers that the lid 3 can be brought into its closed position.
  • the applicator can be pushed through the two left and right next to the middle scraper arranged further scraper only so deep into the reservoir that it completely passes the respective further scraper, but then collides with the wall of the reservoir and is therefore haptically hindered from further movement before it dips into the stored cosmetic.
  • Such an embodiment is expedient, since it prevents the applicator, which is moved by the further scraper to strip it off more strongly, then unexpectedly dips again cosmetic mass, which would possibly impair the desired stronger stripping.
  • the scraper body 7 consists of a one-piece plastic part.
  • This one-piece plastic part occasionally two or even three scrapers conventional design are formed.
  • the stripper body is preferably made by injection molding, ideally from a single plastic material in a single operation.
  • a preferred material for such a scraper body for example, under the brand name Grilflex traded plastic.
  • the one-piece stripper body forms an atrium 9 bounded by its wall in the circumferential direction.
  • this atrium 9 open several scrapers with their distal, ie the respective wiper lip 10 facing away from the end.
  • This atrium captures cosmetic mass that may be squirting outwardly from the respective wiper when the applicator is withdrawn, for example, by having individual bristles snap into their unloaded position as soon as they have passed the narrow cross section of the respective wiper and are suddenly no longer exposed to any bending load.
  • this atrium preferably also serves to provide a sealing surface into which a corresponding counterpart of the lid or cup-like sprue forming part of the lid can be forced to thereby clamp against the wall of the atrium so as to provide a tight connection at least between the scraper and the lid or its pot-like sprue.
  • the inner surface of the wall of the atrium 9 is advantageously slightly inclined by the angle W, for example by 0.3 ° -5 °, compare the FIG.
  • the wall of the wiper body 7 bounding the atrium is made thicker and it is ensured that the portion of the wall can be connected as firmly as possible to the opening of the storage container.
  • the sealing of the cosmetic container area must be performed as dimensionally stable as possible, so that a reliable seal is given even if the cosmetic container is exposed, for example, when transporting in a handbag bending or punctual pressure loads.
  • the said scrapers consist, as can be seen, in each case of a preferably circular-cone-shaped passage, which forms a scraper lip 10 in each case on its container-inward side.
  • the wiper lip 10 may be integrally made of the same material as the Abstreifer emotions 7. Alternatively, modern 2-component process can be used, ie of at least one of these scrapers, for example, the wiper lip made of a subsequently molded particularly soft or even rubber-elastic plastic ,
  • the stripper body has, in the region of the atrium 9, an annular peripheral region, in that its wall thickness is increased. This area has an increased resistance to deformation and thus serves to hold the wiper body 7 securely in the opening 6 of the storage container 2, compare for example the Figures 4-6 ,
  • this reinforced area of the Abstreifer Sciences 7 also additionally carries a plurality of retaining projections 11, so how best to use the FIGS. 4 and 5 can recognize.
  • FIG. 1 detects these retaining projections 11 engage behind a projection of the wall, which defines the opening 6 of the reservoir.
