- the pin 1710 comprises, from the anchoring end 14, a proximal stage 1713, a bridge 1715 and a distal stage 1711, 1717 extending to the free end 12.
- the distal stage comprises a main extension 1717 extending to the right of the proximal stage 1713 via the bridge 1715.
- the main extension 1717 has an internal flat face 1717a situated in the plane P of the spike 1710.
- the distal stage also comprises a secondary extension 1711 which s extends along and at a distance from the main extension 1717.
- the secondary extension 1711 has a flat internal face 1711 a which is not concomitant with the plane P and extends opposite and at a distance from the latter.
- FIG 36 another yet illustrated alternative embodiment of a pin 1810 for an applicator device according to the invention is illustrated.
- the pin 1810 comprises, from the anchoring end 14, a proximal stage 1813, a bridge 1815 and a distal stage 1711, 1717 extending to the free end 12.
- the distal stage comprises a main extension to two branches 1717, symmetrical in mirror relation to each other, extending to the right of the proximal stage 1813 via the bridge 1815.
- the branches 1717 have an internal planar face 1717a located in the plane P of the pin 1810
- the distal stage further comprises a secondary extension 1711 which extends along and at a distance from the main extension.
- the secondary extension 1711 has a plane internal face 1711 a which is not concomitant with the plane P and extends opposite and at a distance from the latter.
- the extensions 1717 and / or 1711 extend vertically in the figures either in a straight line or in a curved manner according to a single curve or according to several curves.
- applicator devices according to the invention in a version mainly of mascara brush or the like. Other forms are necessary for applications directed towards the epidermis (skin, lips).
- This applicator device 2020 according to the invention comprises a core 2000 which is hollow comprising a tube 2001 comprising a longitudinal slot 2002.
- An external surface of the tube 2001 includes an implantation of pins 2010 which may have the structure of one of the pins described above.
- Such a structure of the core 2000 makes it possible to make it developable so as to become plane as illustrated in FIG. 42b.
- the applicator device 2020 further comprises a support 2021 comprising a receiving housing 2023 bordered on either side by slides 2022.
- the core 2000 once developed, is introduced into the housing 2023 in sliding it along the slides 2022.
- the applicator device 2020 according to the invention forms a spatula for applying a fluid or pasty product to an epidermis.
- the core 3000 comprises a tube 3001 comprising a longitudinal slot 3002.
- An external surface of the tube 3001 comprises an implantation of pins 10 which may have the structure of one of the pins described above.
- the core 3000 comprises an ogive 3003 of essentially frustoconical shape.
- the tube 3001 has a bias cut 3004. This cut will allow the tube 3001 to be able to develop without being hindered by the warhead 3003.
- the core 3000 comprises, here illustrated, longitudinal orifices 3005 passing through a thickness of the tube 3001 and situated between the longitudinal rows of pins 10.
- the core 3000 did not comprise longitudinal orifices.
- the applicator device 3020 comprises a support 3021 for receiving the sliding core 3000.
- the support comprises a body 3023 in the form of a sword comprising two longitudinal tanks 3022 open on the top intended to receive liquid or pasty product to be applied.
- the body 3023 ends in a guard 3024.
- the hollow developable core 3000 is threaded by sliding on the body 3023 of the support 3021, the shape of the body 3023 being arranged so as to progressively develop the tube 3001 until the core 3000 comes into bearing contact against the guard 3024, the warhead 3003 receiving a point from the body of the support 3021.
- the longitudinal orifices 3005 allow the product stored in the tanks 3022 to reach the pins 10.
- Figure 46 illustrates a first variant of the support 3120 in which the body 3123 is full and has no reservoirs.
- FIG. 47 illustrates a second variant of the support 3220 in which the body 3223 has a recess 3222 which acts as a product reservoir, once the core 3000 has been placed on the support 3220.
- Figure 48 illustrates a third variant of the support 3320 in which the body 3323 has a series of bumps 3322 projecting from an upper face which is covered by the core 3000, once in place on the support 3320, the spacings between the bumps 3322 forming product reservoirs. It should be noted that, moreover, these spacings leave “voids” between the upper face of the support 3320 and an internal surface of the core 3000. These “voids” thus allow the core 3000 to bend during the application of the cosmetic product making the gesture of application even more soft and tactile (feeling of comfort), the pins then pushing the core 3000 which “collapses” slightly in front of the spacings of the support 3320.
- Figure 49 is illustrated an alternative embodiment 3420 of one of the above supports in which the body 3423 has an implantation of pins 10 (which may have the structure of one of the pins described above) on an opposite face to that covered by the core 3000 once it is in place.
- Figures 50 to 52 is illustrated an alternative embodiment 3520 of one of the preceding supports, in particular the support 3021.
- the support 3520 is similar to the support 3021 except that it further comprises a conduit 3025 passing, coaxially, a handle 3026 of the guard 3024 so as to open into the two longitudinal tanks 3022 open on the top of the body 3023.
- the cosmetic or care product P follows a path illustrated by the arrows FP by entering from the rear of the handle 3026 in the conduit 3025 then flowing into the tanks 3022 and finally exiting through the longitudinal orifices 3005 of the core 3000 placed on the support 3520.
- the support 3620 is similar to the support 3120 except that it comprises a conduit 3125 passing longitudinally through the support 3620 from one end of the handle 3026 of the guard 3024 to one end 3126 of the body 3123.
- the cosmetic or care product P follows a path illustrated by the arrows FP by entering from the rear of the handle 3026 in the conduit 3125 then flowing along the conduit 3125 until emerging through the end 3126, in the manner of a mechanical pencil mine.
- the support 3620 is mounted, here, with a hollow core 3009 which is an alternative embodiment of the hollow core 3000 previously described adapted for the support 3620 so as to leave free the end 3126 of the outlet of the conduit 3125.
- the support 3620 has a face 3624, generally opposite a face of the support 3620 on which is mounted the hollow core 3009, which has a particular structure: flocking, or an additional layer of a softer material.
- the sponge type for example, having cells, or a micro-structuring of said face 3624, or of any layer of soft and micro-structured material having the same effect as an area at one end of the fingers of which a user is serves naturally.
- an applicator device in alternative embodiments of an applicator device according to the invention, illustrated in Figures 57 and 58, the latter comprises a handle 3700 mounted on the handle 3026 of the support 3620 and includes means of implementation 3701, 3710 of the path, illustrated by the arrow FP, of the product P.
- the means of implementation 3701 is a pusher 3701 on which a pushing action 3702 causes a path of the product P.
- the means of implementation 3710 is a ring 3710 rotatably mounted and arranged so that a rotation 3712 of the ring 3710 causes a flow of the product P.
- the pusher 3701 or the ring 3710 act, for this, on a product metering system P arranged within the 3700 handle. This dosing system is a mechanical pump or device depending on the consistency of the product P used.
- the applicator device makes it possible to improve the charge of cosmetic or care product and its application to keratin fibers (while ensuring optimal separation of the latter) or the epidermis while providing a feeling of optimal comfort for its user.
