Description

目元化粧用塗布具および目元化粧用具Eye makeup applicator and eye makeup tool
　本発明は目元化粧用塗布具であって、特にマスカラ液、まつ毛用育毛剤、マスカラ下地、まつ毛コーティング剤、まつ毛エクステ用コーティング剤などの化粧料を塗布する目元化粧用塗布具及び該目元化粧用塗布具が適用される目元化粧用具に関する。 The present invention is an eye cosmetic applicator, and in particular, an eye cosmetic applicator for applying cosmetics such as mascara liquid, eyelash hair restorer, mascara base, eyelash coating agent, eyelash extension coating agent, and the like. The present invention relates to an eye makeup tool to which an applicator is applied.
　化粧を行う際に使用する化粧用具として数々のものがあるが、その一つとしてマスカラ（液）を塗布する際に使用するマスカラ塗布具がある。マスカラは、マスカラ液を塗布することで、まつ毛を濃く、長く、及びカールさせるものである。 There are a number of cosmetic tools used when applying makeup, and one of them is a mascara applicator used when applying mascara (liquid). The mascara makes the eyelashes darker, longer and curled by applying a mascara liquid.
　マスカラを塗布する際、まつ毛を濃くし、仕上がりを美しく見せるには、まつ毛の生え際（根元）からまつ毛の毛先まで、マスカラ液がしっかり塗布されていると好ましい。 When applying mascara, it is preferable that the mascara solution is applied firmly from the eyelash line (root) to the end of the eyelashes in order to darken the eyelashes and show the finish beautifully.
　従来では、マスカラ塗布具として軸から放射状に突出するブラシが用いられていた（例えば、特許文献１）。 Conventionally, a brush projecting radially from a shaft has been used as a mascara applicator (for example, Patent Document 1).
特表２０１３－５３８０６５号公報Special table 2013-538065 gazette
　しかしながら、マスカラ塗布具としてブラシを用いた場合には、ブラシの毛先が長いこと、及び放射状に突出することにより、使用者がマスカラブラシの先端がまぶたや眼球へ接触する恐れを感じてしまう。 However, when a brush is used as a mascara applicator, the tip of the mascara brush may be in contact with the eyelid or eyeball due to the long tip of the brush and the radial protrusion.
　また、まつ毛の根元に塗布具を当てた場合に、ブラシやコームの先端がまつ毛の隙間からまぶたに接触することで、まぶたにマスカラ液が付着することを回避しようという潜在的な意識が働いてしまう。 In addition, when an applicator is applied to the base of the eyelashes, there is a potential awareness that the tip of the brush or comb comes into contact with the eyelids through the gaps in the eyelashes to avoid the mascara from adhering to the eyelids. End up.
　よって、従来のマスカラ塗布具ではまつ毛の根元に確実にマスカラ液（化粧料）を塗布することができないという問題点があった。 Therefore, the conventional mascara applicator has a problem that the mascara liquid (cosmetic) cannot be reliably applied to the base of the eyelashes.
　そこで、本発明は上記事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、まつ毛の根元へマスカラ液を塗布する際に眼球やまぶたへの接触の恐怖を低減しながら、良好なメーキャップ効果が得られる目元化粧用塗布具を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and for eye makeup that provides a good makeup effect while reducing the fear of contact with the eyeball and eyelid when applying mascara liquid to the base of the eyelashes. An object is to provide an applicator.
　上記の課題は、支軸と、該支軸に支持される基台部と、前記基台部に形成され、前記基台部の長手方向に直交する方向に延在する複数の突起と、を有する目元化粧用塗布具であって、前記突起は前記基台部の腹面から突出するよう形成され、前記突起は前記基台部の外周縁から外側に突出する突出部を含むことを特徴とする、目元化粧用塗布具によって解決することができる。 The above-described problems include a support shaft, a base portion supported by the support shaft, and a plurality of protrusions formed on the base portion and extending in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the base portion. An eye cosmetic applicator, wherein the protrusion is formed to protrude from an abdominal surface of the base portion, and the protrusion includes a protrusion portion protruding outward from an outer peripheral edge of the base portion. It can be solved with an eye cosmetic applicator.
　一態様によれば、目元化粧用塗布具において、まつ毛の根元へ塗布する際に眼球やまぶたへの接触の恐怖を低減しながら、良好なメーキャップ効果が得られる。 According to one aspect, a good makeup effect can be obtained while reducing the fear of contact with the eyeball or eyelid when applying to the base of the eyelashes in the eye makeup applicator.

<Eye makeup tool>
FIG. 1 shows a mascara applicator (applicator for eye makeup, applicator) and an eye cosmetic applicator to which the mascara applicator is applied, which is an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, (A) is a half sectional view of a state where a mascara applicator is mounted on a mascara container, and (B) is an external view of the mascara applicator removed from the mascara container.
　先ず、図１の（Ａ）及び（Ｂ）を用いてマスカラツール（目元化粧用具）１について説明する。マスカラツール１は、マスカラ塗布具４０とマスカラ容器５０とを有する。 First, the mascara tool (eye makeup tool) 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. The mascara tool 1 includes a mascara applicator 40 and a mascara container 50.
　マスカラ容器（化粧料容器）５０は、内部に化粧料（マスカラ液等）Ｍが充填される（収容される）容器である。図１で示される化粧料Ｍは、マスカラ（マスカラ液）に限られず、まつ毛用育毛剤、マスカラ下地、まつ毛コーティング剤、まつ毛エクステ用コーティング剤、アイライナー液、およびマスカラとアイライナー兼用化粧料組成物等の複数用途に使用できる化粧料などであってもよい。 The mascara container (cosmetic container) 50 is a container in which cosmetics (mascara liquid or the like) M is filled (contained). The cosmetic M shown in FIG. 1 is not limited to mascara (mascara liquid), but a hair growth agent for eyelashes, a mascara base, an eyelash coating agent, an eyelash extension coating agent, an eyeliner liquid, and a mascara and eyeliner cosmetic composition. It may be a cosmetic that can be used for multiple purposes such as goods.
　マスカラ塗布具４０は、塗布体１０と、支持軸（支軸）２０と、把持部３０とを備えている。円柱形状の把持部（枝部、蓋部）３０には、支持軸２０が取り付けられている。支持軸２０の先端には、マスカラ液の塗布体１０が取り付けられている。塗布体１０の詳細については後述する。 The mascara applicator 40 includes an application body 10, a support shaft (support shaft) 20, and a grip portion 30. A support shaft 20 is attached to a cylindrical gripping part (branch part, lid part) 30. A mascara application body 10 is attached to the tip of the support shaft 20. Details of the coated body 10 will be described later.
　マスカラ容器５０は略筒状体であり、化粧料Ｍを取り出すための開口部が形成されている。開口部には雄ネジ５１が形成されており、この雄ネジ５１にはマスカラ塗布具４０の把持部３０の内壁に形成された雌ネジ３１が螺合する。 The mascara container 50 is a substantially cylindrical body, and an opening for taking out the cosmetic M is formed. A male screw 51 is formed in the opening, and a female screw 31 formed on the inner wall of the grip portion 30 of the mascara applicator 40 is screwed into the male screw 51.
　マスカラ容器５０が、図１の（Ａ）に示すように把持部３０に螺合した状態では、支持軸２０に設けられた塗布体１０は、マスカラ容器５０内の化粧料Ｍに浸漬される。 In the state where the mascara container 50 is screwed into the grip portion 30 as shown in FIG. 1A, the application body 10 provided on the support shaft 20 is immersed in the cosmetic M in the mascara container 50.
　また、マスカラ容器５０の開口部近傍には、しごき部材５２が設けられている。しごき部材５２は弾性体により構成され、マスカラ容器５０をマスカラ塗布具４０から取り外す際、塗布体１０と接触することにより、塗布体１０に過剰に付着したマスカラをしごく。このしごき部材５２により、塗布体１０に含ませるマスカラの量を適度に調整することができる。 Further, an ironing member 52 is provided in the vicinity of the opening of the mascara container 50. The squeezing member 52 is formed of an elastic body, and when the mascara container 50 is removed from the mascara applicator 40, the mascara excessively attached to the applicator 10 is squeezed by coming into contact with the applicator 10. With the ironing member 52, the amount of mascara included in the application body 10 can be adjusted appropriately.
　更に、マスカラ容器５０の開口部の近傍には、容器側当接部５３が設けられている。また支持軸２０には、把持側当接部２１が設けられている。把持側当接部２１は、容器側当接部５３に化粧料Ｍが溜まった場合に、その化粧料を容器内に押し戻す作用を有する。 Furthermore, a container side contact portion 53 is provided in the vicinity of the opening of the mascara container 50. The support shaft 20 is provided with a gripping-side contact portion 21. When the cosmetic M accumulates in the container-side abutting portion 53, the grip-side abutting portion 21 has an action of pushing the cosmetic back into the container.
　支持軸２０は、把持部３０から取り外し可能であってもよく、一体形成されていてもよい。取り外し可能な場合は係合部（突起部）２２が、把持部３０の内壁３２や係合部（不図示）に着脱可能に係合する。 The support shaft 20 may be removable from the grip portion 30 or may be integrally formed. When it is removable, the engaging part (projection part) 22 is detachably engaged with the inner wall 32 and the engaging part (not shown) of the grip part 30.
　図２及び図３に示すように、塗布体１０は、基台部１９、突起１３，１４、及び支持部１７を備えている。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the application body 10 includes a base portion 19, protrusions 13 and 14, and a support portion 17.
　塗布体１０は、支持軸２０から取り外し可能であってもよく、一体形成されていてもよい。取り外し可能な場合は支持部１７に接続された連結部１７Ｊが、支持軸２０の内壁等と着脱可能に係合することで、塗布体１０が支持軸２０へ連結される。 The application body 10 may be removable from the support shaft 20, or may be integrally formed. In the case where it can be removed, the connecting portion 17J connected to the support portion 17 is detachably engaged with the inner wall or the like of the support shaft 20, so that the application body 10 is connected to the support shaft 20.
　また、基台部１９、突起１３，１４、及び支持部１７は、表面がフロッキー（細毛）１６で覆われる構成としてもよい。 Further, the base 19, the protrusions 13 and 14, and the support 17 may be configured such that the surfaces are covered with flocks (fine hairs) 16.
　＜塗布体＞
　次に、図２及び図３を用いて塗布体１０の詳細について説明する。 <Applied body>
Next, the detail of the application body 10 is demonstrated using FIG.2 and FIG.3.
　図２及び図３は、本発明の一実施形態である、マスカラ塗布具４０の塗布体１０の拡大図である。 2 and 3 are enlarged views of the application body 10 of the mascara applicator 40 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
　塗布体１０は、支持軸２０の先端に連結される支持部１７と、支持部１７に支持される基台部１９と、該基台部１９から突出する複数の壁状の突起１３，１４を備えている。この壁状の突起１３，１４は、断面が矩形状又は多角形状の角柱状の突起である。なお、支持部１７を設けず、基台部１９と支持軸２０を直接連接してもよい。 The application body 10 includes a support portion 17 connected to the tip of the support shaft 20, a base portion 19 supported by the support portion 17, and a plurality of wall-shaped protrusions 13 and 14 protruding from the base portion 19. I have. These wall-shaped protrusions 13 and 14 are prismatic protrusions having a rectangular or polygonal cross section. Note that the base portion 19 and the support shaft 20 may be directly connected without providing the support portion 17.
　この塗布体１０は、樹脂を一体成型することにより形成されている。樹脂材料としては熱可塑性樹脂を用いることが望ましく、例えばエラストマー、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリスチレン、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリカーボネート、ポリアセテート、ナイロン等を用いることができる。 The application body 10 is formed by integrally molding a resin. As the resin material, it is desirable to use a thermoplastic resin. For example, elastomer, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, polyacetate, nylon and the like can be used.
　基台部１９は、平面視で長手方向Ｌ（基台部１９の中央部の湾曲方向）及びそれと直交する幅方向（短手方向）Ｓを有する縦長の細長い形状をしている。基台部１９は、腹面（マスカラ液を主に塗布する側の塗付面）１１、背面（まつ毛さばき面）１２、及び針状先端１５を含む。 The base portion 19 has a vertically long and narrow shape having a longitudinal direction L (curving direction of the central portion of the base portion 19) and a width direction (short direction) S perpendicular thereto in plan view. The base portion 19 includes an abdominal surface (application surface on the side on which mascara liquid is mainly applied) 11, a back surface (eyelash separation surface) 12, and a needle-like tip 15.
　基台部１９は、高さ方向Ｈ、及び幅方向Ｓにおいて、先端に向かうにつれて漸次細く（幅狭に）なっている。基台部１９は、腹面１１及び該腹面１１に対向して位置する背面１２を有する略板状の形状をしている。 The base part 19 is gradually thinner (narrower) in the height direction H and the width direction S toward the tip. The base portion 19 has a substantially plate shape having an abdominal surface 11 and a back surface 12 positioned to face the abdominal surface 11.
　基台部１９は、支持軸２０が延伸する軸方向Ａに対して、腹面１１側へ凹状に湾曲したアーチ状をしている。つまり腹面１１は凹状湾曲面（くぼみ面）になっている。これとともに基台部１９は、該基台部１９の幅方向Ｓに関しても、図２の（Ａ）及び図３の（Ａ）に示すように、腹面１１側へ凹状に若干湾曲している。 The base portion 19 has an arch shape that is concavely curved toward the abdominal surface 11 with respect to the axial direction A in which the support shaft 20 extends. That is, the abdominal surface 11 is a concave curved surface (recessed surface). At the same time, the base 19 is slightly curved in a concave shape toward the abdominal surface 11 as shown in FIGS. 2A and 3A in the width direction S of the base 19.
　図２の（Ａ）において、円Ｂで示す部分がまつ毛中央部から先端部へのマスカラの塗布に使用され、円Ｃに示す部分がマスカラ塗布時にまつ毛を梳くことに使用され、円Ｄに示す部分がアイラインを引くこと及びマスカラ塗布時のダマを分離することに使用される。また、図２の（Ｂ）において、円Ｅに示す部分は、まつ毛の根元及び全体へマスカラを塗布することに使用される。 In FIG. 2A, the portion indicated by circle B is used for applying mascara from the center of the eyelashes to the tip, and the portion indicated by circle C is used for combing the eyelashes during mascara application, as indicated by circle D. The part is used to draw the eyeline and to separate the lumps when applying mascara. Further, in FIG. 2B, a portion indicated by a circle E is used for applying mascara to the base and the whole of the eyelashes.
　図２の（Ａ）からわかるように、基台部１９の支持軸２０から最も離れた先端は、連結される支持軸２０の軸Ａから離間した位置にあり、塗布体１０の基台部１９は、支持軸２０の軸Ａの延在方向から傾いている。一例として基台部１９の支持軸２０に対する傾斜角度は、５～１０°程度であると好適である（基台部１９の軸Ａからの傾斜角度を図２の（Ａ）に矢印θで示す）。 As can be seen from FIG. 2A, the tip of the base 19 that is farthest from the support shaft 20 is located away from the axis A of the support shaft 20 to be connected, and the base 19 of the application body 10. Is inclined from the extending direction of the axis A of the support shaft 20. As an example, the inclination angle of the base portion 19 with respect to the support shaft 20 is preferably about 5 to 10 ° (the inclination angle of the base portion 19 from the axis A is indicated by an arrow θ in FIG. 2A). ).
　塗布体１０の基台部１９が支持軸２０に対して傾斜することで、マスカラ容器５０をマスカラ塗布具４０から取り外す際、塗布体１０がしごき部材５２を通過する際に、腹面１１及び腹面突起１３を有する腹側に化粧料を多く付着することができ、背面１２及び背面突起１４を有する背側では化粧料がしごかれる。よって、腹側は塗布に適し、背側はさばきの効果を有する。 When the base part 19 of the application body 10 is inclined with respect to the support shaft 20, when removing the mascara container 50 from the mascara application tool 40 and when the application body 10 passes through the ironing member 52, the abdominal surface 11 and the abdominal surface protrusion A large amount of cosmetic material can be attached to the ventral side having 13, and the cosmetic material is squeezed on the back side having the back surface 12 and the back surface protrusion 14. Therefore, the ventral side is suitable for application, and the dorsal side has a judgment effect.
　基台部１９は、長手方向Ｌに対して、腹面１１側へ凹状に湾曲したアーチ状をしている。つまり長手方向Ｌに対して、腹面１１は凹状に湾曲し、背面１２は凸状に湾曲している。腹面１１は、基台部１９の凹状に湾曲（凹状湾曲面）した内側に位置し、背面１２は、前記凸状に湾曲した外側（凸状湾曲面）に位置する。このように、基台部１９の腹面１１の湾曲の曲率半径Ｒ１は、まつ毛が生えているまぶたの湾曲（目のカーブ）Ｒ（図３の（Ａ）、図６の（Ａ）参照）に対応するよう設定されている。 The base 19 has an arch shape that is concavely curved toward the abdominal surface 11 with respect to the longitudinal direction L. That is, with respect to the longitudinal direction L, the abdominal surface 11 is curved in a concave shape, and the back surface 12 is curved in a convex shape. The abdominal surface 11 is located inside the base portion 19 in a concavely curved shape (concave curved surface), and the back surface 12 is located outside the convexly curved surface (convex curved surface). Thus, the curvature radius R1 of the curvature of the abdominal surface 11 of the base portion 19 is the curvature (eye curve) R of the eyelid where the eyelashes grow (see FIGS. 3A and 6A). It is set to correspond.
　更に、基台部１９は、長手方向Ｌにおいて、背面１２の湾曲の半径Ｒ２は腹面１１の湾曲の半径Ｒ１よりも大きい、即ち、背面１２の曲率が小さく（曲がり具合が緩やか）であり、腹面１１の曲率が大きい（曲がり具合がきつい）（図３の（Ａ）参照）。よって、基台部１９の高さ方向Ｈにおいて支持軸２０から離れるにつれて腹面１１と背面１２の距離（厚さ）が漸次短く（薄く）なる。例えば、図２の（Ａ）の側面図に示すような、牙状の形状となる。 Further, in the longitudinal direction L, the base 19 has a curvature radius R2 of the back surface 12 larger than a curvature radius R1 of the abdominal surface 11, that is, the curvature of the back surface 12 is small (the degree of bending is gentle). 11 has a large curvature (the degree of bending is tight) (see FIG. 3A). Therefore, the distance (thickness) between the abdominal surface 11 and the back surface 12 becomes gradually shorter (thinner) as the distance from the support shaft 20 increases in the height direction H of the base portion 19. For example, it has a fang shape as shown in the side view of FIG.
　具体的には、基台部１９のうち、腹面１１の長手方向Ｌの長さが１５ｍｍ～４０ｍｍ、特に１６ｍｍ～２８ｍｍであることが、目頭から目尻にわたるまつ毛全体を一度に押さえることができる点と、操作性を兼ね備える点から好ましい。 Specifically, the length of the abdominal surface 11 in the longitudinal direction L of the base portion 19 is 15 mm to 40 mm, particularly 16 mm to 28 mm, so that the entire eyelashes extending from the eyes to the corners of the eyes can be pressed at once. From the point of having operability.
　また基台部１９は、基台部１９の短手方向である幅方向Ｓが、最も広い部分において３～８ｍｍ、特に３．５ｍｍ～４．５ｍｍであることが、まつ毛の根元から毛先にわたる全体を押さえることができる点と、操作性を兼ね備える点から好ましい。 The base portion 19 has a width direction S, which is the short direction of the base portion 19, of 3 to 8 mm, particularly 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm, in the widest portion. It is preferable from the point that it can hold down the whole and has operability.
　基台部１９の腹面１１の湾曲の程度（即ち、湾曲の曲率）は、曲率半径Ｒ１で表して２０ｍｍ以上、特に３０ｍｍ以上であることが、まぶたの湾曲（図６の（Ａ）参照）に合わせてまつ毛を確実に押さえつけることができる点から好ましい。 The degree of curvature of the abdominal surface 11 of the base portion 19 (that is, the curvature of the curvature) is 20 mm or more, particularly 30 mm or more in terms of the curvature radius R1, which is the curvature of the eyelid (see FIG. 6A). It is preferable because the eyelashes can be reliably pressed together.
　基台部１９の背面１２の長手方向Ｌに沿う湾曲の曲率は、曲率半径Ｒ２で表して３０ｍｍ以上、特に４０ｍｍ以上であることが、面で接してまつ毛一本一本を分ける（梳く）点から好ましい。 The curvature of the curve along the longitudinal direction L of the back surface 12 of the base 19 is 30 mm or more, particularly 40 mm or more, expressed by a radius of curvature R2, and the eyelashes touch each other to divide each eyelash. To preferred.
　ここで、図３の（Ｂ）及び図３の（Ｃ）に示すように、腹面１１の湾曲方向Ａと略垂直方向の断面は、横断面（基台部の短手方向である幅方向Ｓ）において、少なくとも一部が直線である形状である。ここで、断面における略直線状は、軽度の凹曲線、凸曲線の形状を含みうる（図９，図１０，図１１参照）。 Here, as shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, the cross section of the abdominal surface 11 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the bending direction A is a transverse cross section (the width direction S which is the short direction of the base portion). ), At least part of the shape is a straight line. Here, the substantially straight line shape in the cross section may include the shape of a light concave curve or convex curve (see FIGS. 9, 10, and 11).
　一方、基台部１９の背面１２側は、その幅方向Ｓに関して、外方へ向けて凸状に若干湾曲している。背面１２の幅方向についての湾曲に関し、これらの背面１２の曲率半径Ｒ３～Ｒ３'（図３の（Ｂ）、図３の（Ｃ））は０．５ｍｍ～８ｍｍ、特に１．５ｍｍ～４．０ｍｍであることが好ましい。 On the other hand, the back surface 12 side of the base portion 19 is slightly curved in a convex shape toward the outside in the width direction S. Regarding the curvature of the back surface 12 in the width direction, the radii of curvature R3 to R3 ′ (FIG. 3B, FIG. 3C) of these back surfaces 12 are 0.5 mm to 8 mm, particularly 1.5 mm to 4.. It is preferably 0 mm.
　幅方向Ｓにおいて、支持部１７に近い部分（図３の（Ｃ））の背面１２の曲率半径Ｒ３'と針状先端１５に近い部分（図３の（Ｂ））の背面１２の曲率半径Ｒ３は等しく、この例では、２．０ｍｍである。あるいは、先端に近い部分の曲率半径Ｒ３の方が支持部１７に近い部分の曲率半径Ｒ３'よりも小さい場合も考えられ、その場合には、最も幅が広い部分（支持部１７側）で、曲率半径は１．５ｍｍ～２．５ｍｍ程度であるとよい。また、先端に近い部分は、もっと細くてもよく、例えば曲率半径が１．０ｍｍであってもよい。 In the width direction S, the curvature radius R3 ′ of the back surface 12 of the portion close to the support portion 17 (FIG. 3C) and the curvature radius R3 of the back surface 12 of the portion close to the needle tip 15 (FIG. 3B). Are equal, in this example 2.0 mm. Alternatively, it is conceivable that the radius of curvature R3 near the tip is smaller than the radius of curvature R3 ′ near the support portion 17, in which case the widest portion (the support portion 17 side) The radius of curvature is preferably about 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm. Moreover, the part close | similar to a front-end | tip may be thinner, for example, a curvature radius may be 1.0 mm.
　また、背面突起１４の先端の曲率半径について、図３の例では、０．７ｍｍ～２．１ｍｍであると好ましい。このとき幅方向Ｓにおいて、支持部１７に近い部分（図３の（Ｃ））の背面突起１４の曲率半径Ｒ４'（例えば２．０ｍｍ）よりも、針状先端１５に近い部分（図３の（Ｂ））の背面突起１４の曲率半径Ｒ４（例えば０．７ｍｍ）の方が小さい。あるいは、先端に近い部分の背面突起１４の先端の曲率半径Ｒ４と、支持部１７に近い部分の曲率半径Ｒ４'が等しい場合も考えられる。 Further, the radius of curvature of the tip of the back projection 14 is preferably 0.7 mm to 2.1 mm in the example of FIG. At this time, in the width direction S, the portion closer to the needle tip 15 (in FIG. 3) than the curvature radius R4 ′ (for example, 2.0 mm) of the back projection 14 in the portion closer to the support portion 17 (FIG. 3C). The curvature radius R4 (for example, 0.7 mm) of the back projection 14 of (B)) is smaller. Alternatively, the case where the radius of curvature R4 of the tip of the back projection 14 near the tip and the radius of curvature R4 ′ of the portion close to the support portion 17 are equal may be considered.
　また、図２の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）からわかるように、基台部１９は、基台部１９の幅方向においても、支持軸２０から離れるにつれて細くなる被針形状（笹の葉状）の木の葉のような形状（Ｆで囲った部分）である。ここで、被針形状には、広被針形状や、三角形の支持部１７側以外の二辺が外側に膨らむように湾曲している形状や、三角形も含まれるとする。 Further, as can be seen from FIGS. 2B and 2C, the base 19 has a needle-like shape (leaf shape) that becomes narrower with distance from the support shaft 20 in the width direction of the base 19. It is a shape like a leaf (portion surrounded by F). Here, the needle shape includes a wide needle shape, a shape that is curved so that two sides other than the triangular support portion 17 side swell outward, and a triangle.
　このように形状が細くなることで、目のカーブの端部の目頭や目尻の短いまつ毛と塗布体１０とが接触し易く、目頭や目尻へ化粧料を塗布するときの、操作性が向上する。なお、図２の（Ｂ）等に示すように、被針形状の先端に針状先端を形成する場合は、被針形状の先端を切り取った切頭形にするのが好ましい。 By thinning the shape in this way, the eyelashes at the ends of the curve of the eyes and the eyelashes with short eye corners are easily brought into contact with the application body 10, and the operability when applying cosmetics to the eyes and eye corners is improved. . As shown in FIG. 2B or the like, when the needle-shaped tip is formed at the needle-shaped tip, it is preferable to use a truncated shape obtained by cutting off the needle-shaped tip.
　次に、突起（壁状の突起１３，１４）について説明する。 Next, the protrusions (wall-like protrusions 13 and 14) will be described.
　基台部１９における腹面１１には、複数の壁状の腹面突起（壁状突起、突起ともいう）１３が立設されている。各腹面突起１３は、腹面１１の幅方向の略全体に延在している壁状突起である。複数の腹面突起１３は、腹面１１に略平行に並設されて形成されている。腹面突起１３を設けることで、腹面１１におけるマスカラ液のさばきが向上する。 A plurality of wall-shaped abdominal surface protrusions (also referred to as wall-shaped protrusions or protrusions) 13 are erected on the abdominal surface 11 of the base 19. Each of the abdominal surface protrusions 13 is a wall-like protrusion that extends over substantially the entire width direction of the abdominal surface 11. The plurality of abdominal surface protrusions 13 are formed in parallel with the abdominal surface 11. By providing the ventral protrusion 13, the mascara solution on the abdominal surface 11 is improved.
　更に、図２の（Ａ）、図３の（Ａ）からわかるように、本実施形態では、壁状形状の腹面突起（壁状突起）１３は、腹面１１から、腹面１１の前方向であって、断面が直線の部分と略垂直な方向に突出している。 Further, as can be seen from FIG. 2A and FIG. 3A, in this embodiment, the wall-shaped ventral protrusion (wall-shaped protrusion) 13 extends from the abdominal surface 11 to the front of the abdominal surface 11. Thus, the cross section protrudes in a direction substantially perpendicular to the straight portion.
　よって、腹面１１及び腹面突起１３は支持軸２０から傾き、支持軸２０から異なる方向へ延在している。支持軸２０から傾くことで、まつ毛の根元へのマスカラ液塗布時、カーブした目元への密着度を調整しやすくなる。また、腹面突起１３において、支持部１７から遠い部分は、基台部１９の幅方向Ｓの腹側の側縁１１１から延出するように設けられている。 Therefore, the abdominal surface 11 and the abdominal surface protrusion 13 are inclined from the support shaft 20 and extend from the support shaft 20 in different directions. By tilting from the support shaft 20, it becomes easy to adjust the degree of adhesion to the curved eye when applying mascara liquid to the base of the eyelashes. Further, in the abdominal surface protrusion 13, a portion far from the support portion 17 is provided so as to extend from the side edge 111 on the abdominal side in the width direction S of the base portion 19.
　更に、図２の（Ａ）に示されるように、各腹面突起１３の先端面（突起先端、稜線）１３１の形状は、平面又は湾曲面である。また、腹面突起１３の全体では、各腹面突起１３の腹面１１から複数突出する高さは略同じ高さであるため、複数の腹面突起１３が並ぶことで、複数の腹面突起１３の先端面１３１は、軸方向Ａに対して、凹状に湾曲になるように並ぶことになる。 Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2A, the shape of the distal end surface (protrusion distal end, ridge line) 131 of each abdominal projection 13 is a flat surface or a curved surface. Further, since the height of the plurality of the ventral protrusions 13 protruding from the ventral surface 11 of each of the ventral protrusions 13 is substantially the same, the plurality of ventral protrusions 13 are arranged so that the front end surfaces 131 of the plurality of ventral protrusions 13 are aligned. Are arranged so as to be curved in a concave shape with respect to the axial direction A.
　このとき、腹面突起１３は、延在の方向と直交する幅方向において、突出の根元と前記突出の先端面１３１とは略等しい幅Ｗｃを備えている。従って、まつ毛との当接面は面形状になり、尖った形状ではないため、マスカラ塗布時に塗布体１０が目に接近することへの恐怖感を低減することができる。 At this time, in the width direction perpendicular to the extending direction, the abdominal surface protrusion 13 has a width Wc that is substantially equal to the base of the protrusion and the tip surface 131 of the protrusion. Therefore, since the contact surface with the eyelashes has a surface shape and is not a pointed shape, it is possible to reduce the fear of the application body 10 approaching the eyes during mascara application.
　ここで、腹面突起１３の幅Ｗｃは、０．１ｍｍ以上１．５ｍｍ以下、より好ましくは０．２ｍｍ以上０．８ｍｍ以下、例えば０．５ｍｍであると好適である。 Here, the width Wc of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is 0.1 mm or more and 1.5 mm or less, more preferably 0.2 mm or more and 0.8 mm or less, for example, 0.5 mm.
　また、腹面突起１３の間隔Ｉｃは、０．３ｍｍ以上２．０ｍｍ以下、１．２ｍｍ前後であると好適である。ここで記載した間隔の数値は、腹面突起１３の最も高い部分同士の間隔を表している。 Further, the interval Ic between the ventral protrusions 13 is preferably 0.3 mm or more and 2.0 mm or less and around 1.2 mm. The numerical value of the space | interval described here represents the space | interval of the highest parts of the ventral process 13.
　また、側縁１１１と突出部１３２により、幅方向Ｓに対して段差を形成している。なお、後述する図５の（Ｂ）で示すように、塗布の際、｛「間隔Ｉｃ」－「幅Ｗｃ」｝で形成される、突起（腹面１１に対する腹面突起１３、及び側縁（外縁）１１１に対する突出部１３２）間の空間（間隙）（「間隔Ｉｃ」－「幅Ｗｃ」＝「間隙（Ｇａｐ）Ｇｃ」）（図２の（Ａ）参照）に、まつ毛が入り込むことで、まつ毛に化粧料Ｍが塗布される。 Further, a step is formed with respect to the width direction S by the side edge 111 and the protruding portion 132. As shown in FIG. 5B, which will be described later, at the time of application, the protrusions (the abdominal surface protrusion 13 with respect to the abdominal surface 11, and the side edges (outer edges) formed by {"interval Ic"-"width Wc"} The eyelashes enter the space (gap) between the protrusions 132 with respect to 111 (“interval Ic” − “width Wc” = “gap (Gap) Gc”) (see FIG. 2A). Cosmetic M is applied.
　したがって、上述のように、恐怖心を低減し、且つ、突起間の間隙にまつ毛を入り込ませるように、「接触面（腹面突起１３の先端面１３１又は突出部１３２の側端１３３）の幅Ｗｃ」：「間隙の幅（Ｇｃ）」の比率が、１：４以上１：０．８以下であると好ましい。 Therefore, as described above, the width Wc of the “contact surface (the distal end surface 131 of the abdominal projection 13 or the side end 133 of the projection 132) is reduced so as to reduce fear and allow the eyelashes to enter the gap between the projections. ":" Gap width (Gc) "ratio is preferably 1: 4 or more and 1: 0.8 or less.
　ここで、腹面突起１３の高さＴｃは、０．１ｍｍ以上４．０ｍｍ以下、より好ましくは、０．５ｍｍ～２．０ｍｍ程度、例えば０．９ｍｍ程度であると好適である。 Here, the height Tc of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is 0.1 mm or more and 4.0 mm or less, more preferably about 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm, for example, about 0.9 mm.
　詳しくは、図６の（Ｃ）に示すように腹面１１が上を向いた状態で、目元に塗布体１０を近づける際、「腹面突起１３の高さＴｃ」（図２の（Ａ）参照）ｘ「腹面突起の幅Ｗｃ」がまつ毛と最初に接触する接触面となる。 Specifically, when the application body 10 is brought close to the eyes with the abdominal surface 11 facing upward as shown in FIG. 6C, “height Tc of the abdominal surface protrusion 13” (see FIG. 2A). x "The width Wc of the abdominal projection" is the contact surface that first contacts the eyelashes.
　従って、まぶたへ近接する際に恐怖感を取り除くために、「腹面突起１３の高さＴｃ」ｘ「腹面突起の幅Ｗｃ」で規定される突出部１３２の側端（側縁、先端部）１３３の接触面積（先端面積）が０．２ｍｍ２以上２．０ｍｍ２以下、例えば０．５ｍｍ２程度であると好適である。
　　　ここで、腹面突起１３の幅方向Ｓへの突出長さＬｐ（図２の（Ｂ）参照）は０．１ｍｍ以上２．５ｍｍ以下であると好適であり、さらに、０．５ｍｍ以上１．８ｍｍ以下、例えば、１ｍｍ程度であるとさらに好適である。 Therefore, in order to remove fear when approaching the eyelid, the side end (side edge, tip end) 133 of the protrusion 132 defined by “height Tc of the ventral protrusion 13” × “width Wc of the ventral protrusion” is defined. Is preferably 0.2 mm 2 or more and 2.0 mm 2 or less, for example, about 0.5 mm 2 .
Here, the protrusion length Lp in the width direction S of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 (see FIG. 2B) is preferably 0.1 mm or more and 2.5 mm or less, and further 0.5 mm or more and 1.8 mm. Hereinafter, for example, about 1 mm is more preferable.
　また、腹面突起１３の長さＬｃは、基台部１９の幅方向Ｓとほぼ等しく、特に最も広い部分において３．０ｍｍ～８．０ｍｍ程度、特に３．５ｍｍ～４．５ｍｍ程度であると好適である。 Further, the length Lc of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is substantially equal to the width direction S of the base portion 19 and is preferably about 3.0 mm to 8.0 mm, particularly about 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm in the widest portion. It is.
　詳しくは、図６の（Ｄ）に示すように、腹面がまつ毛に対向する状態で、目元に塗布体１０を近づける際、「腹面突起１３の長さＬｃ」ｘ「腹面突起の幅Ｗｃ」がまつ毛と接触する接触面となる。従って、まぶたへ近接する際に恐怖感を取り除くために、「腹面突起１３の長さＬｃ」（図２の（Ｂ）参照）ｘ「腹面突起の幅Ｗｃ」（図２の（Ａ）参照）で規定される腹面突起１３の先端面１３１の接触面積（先端面積）が０．６ｍｍ２以上６．０ｍｍ２以下、例えば２．０ｍｍ２程度であると好適である。 Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6D, when the application body 10 is brought close to the eye with the abdominal surface facing the eyelashes, the “length Lc of the abdominal projection 13” × “the width Wc of the abdominal projection” It becomes a contact surface that contacts the eyelashes. Therefore, in order to remove fear when approaching the eyelid, “length Lc of the ventral projection 13” (see FIG. 2B) × “width Wc of the ventral projection” (see FIG. 2A) in defined as the contact area (the tip area) of the front end face 131 of the pressure surface projection 13 is 0.6 mm 2 or more 6.0 mm 2 or less, it is preferable, for example, a 2.0 mm 2 approximately.
　このように、略板状の腹面突起１３の先端面１３１は、基台部１９の長手方向Ｌに対して所定の幅Ｗｃを有し、基台部１９の幅方向Ｓに上記所定の幅Ｗｃに対応する所定の長さ（図２では腹面１１の全体面）に延在している、面形状である。また、隣接する腹面突起１３は略等間隔に並んでおり、各腹面突起１３の間は腹面１１である。 As described above, the distal end surface 131 of the substantially plate-shaped ventral protrusion 13 has a predetermined width Wc with respect to the longitudinal direction L of the base portion 19, and the predetermined width Wc in the width direction S of the base portion 19. Is a surface shape extending to a predetermined length corresponding to (the entire surface of the abdominal surface 11 in FIG. 2). Adjacent ventral protrusions 13 are arranged at substantially equal intervals, and the ventral surface 11 is between each ventral protrusion 13.
　この構成により、化粧料を塗布する際、まつ毛は、面形状の腹面突起１３の先端面１３１又は腹面１１と面状に接触する。よって、まつ毛を持ち上げやすくするとともに、塗布体１０が眼球やまぶたに接近することへの恐怖感を低減することができる。 With this configuration, when applying cosmetics, the eyelashes come into surface contact with the distal end surface 131 or the abdominal surface 11 of the surface-shaped abdominal surface protrusion 13. Therefore, it is possible to easily lift the eyelashes and to reduce fear of the application body 10 approaching the eyeball or eyelid.
　更に、図２の（Ｂ）に示すよう支持部１７近くの腹面突起１３の先端面１３１の一部は角部が削られ、最も高い部分を楕円形状にしてもよい。この構成により、角部を減らし、まつ毛の根元への圧接の際に、腹面突起１３の角の部分が周囲のまぶたへ接触しづらくなる。 Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2B, a part of the tip surface 131 of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 near the support portion 17 may be cut off at the corner, and the highest portion may be elliptical. With this configuration, the corner portion is reduced, and the corner portion of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is difficult to contact the surrounding eyelids during pressure contact with the base of the eyelashes.
　ここで、図２の（Ｂ）に示すように、腹面１１に設けられる腹面突起１３の突出部１３２は、腹面１１の側縁（外周縁）１１１から外側に突出している。突出部１３２が側縁１１１の外側に突出することで、後述するまつ毛の根元から中央部へマスカラ塗布具４０を移動させる際にまつ毛を梳きやすくする。 Here, as shown in FIG. 2B, the protrusion 132 of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 provided on the abdominal surface 11 protrudes outward from the side edge (outer peripheral edge) 111 of the abdominal surface 11. The protruding part 132 protrudes to the outside of the side edge 111, so that the eyelashes can be easily combed when the mascara applicator 40 is moved from the root of the eyelashes described later to the central part.
　なお、全ての腹面突起１３が突出部１３２を有する必要はなく、少なくともその一部分が突出部１３２を備えてればよい。また、突出部１３２の側縁１１１からの突出量が、異なっていても、均一でもよい。例えば、本実施形態では、針状先端１５に近い腹面突起１３ほど、突出部１３２の突出量が大きくなる。よって、基台部１９の先端付近の横断面を示す図３の（Ｂ）では、腹面突起１３の突出部１３２は、側縁１１１から飛び出しているが、基台部１９が幅広である支持部１７に近い部分の横断面を示す図３の（Ｃ）では、腹面突起１３は、側縁１１１から突出していない。 In addition, it is not necessary for all the abdominal projections 13 to have the protrusions 132, and at least a part of the protrusions 132 may include the protrusions 132. Further, the protruding amount of the protruding portion 132 from the side edge 111 may be different or uniform. For example, in the present embodiment, the protrusion amount of the protrusion 132 increases as the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is closer to the needle-like tip 15. Therefore, in FIG. 3B showing a cross section near the tip of the base 19, the protrusion 132 of the abdominal projection 13 protrudes from the side edge 111, but the base 19 is wide. In FIG. 3C showing a cross section of a portion close to 17, the ventral protrusion 13 does not protrude from the side edge 111.
　図２の（Ｃ）に示すように、基台部１９における背面１２には、複数の壁状の背面突起１４が起立している。各背面突起１４は、背面１２の幅方向に延出するよう形成された壁状突起である。各背面突起１４は、基台部１９の長手方向Ｌに沿って一列に整列している。 2 (C), a plurality of wall-shaped back protrusions 14 are erected on the back surface 12 of the base 19. Each back projection 14 is a wall-like projection formed to extend in the width direction of the back surface 12. The back protrusions 14 are aligned in a line along the longitudinal direction L of the base portion 19.
　ここで、背面突起１４の高さＴｖ（図２の（Ａ）参照）で最も高いところは、０．１ｍｍ以上４．０ｍｍ以下、より好ましくは０．７ｍｍ程度であると好適である。背面突起１４の幅Ｗｖは、０．１ｍｍ以上２．０ｍｍ以下、１．２ｍｍ程度であると好適である。背面突起１４の長さＬｖ（図２の（Ｃ）参照）は、最も広い部分において３．０ｍｍ～８．０ｍｍ程度、特に３．５ｍｍ～４．５ｍｍ程度であると好適であって、基台部１９の幅方向Ｓの背側の側縁１２１から突出する場合は突出量が１．８ｍｍ以下であるように、設けられている。 Here, the highest part of the height Tv (see FIG. 2A) of the back projection 14 is preferably 0.1 mm or more and 4.0 mm or less, more preferably about 0.7 mm. The width Wv of the back projection 14 is preferably about 0.1 mm to 2.0 mm and about 1.2 mm. The length Lv of the back projection 14 (see FIG. 2C) is preferably about 3.0 mm to 8.0 mm, particularly about 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm in the widest portion. When projecting from the side edge 121 on the back side in the width direction S of the part 19, the projecting amount is provided to be 1.8 mm or less.
　また、背面突起１４の間隔Ｉｖは、０．３ｍｍ以上２．０ｍｍ以下、１．２ｍｍ前後であると好適である。ここで記載した間隔の数値は、背面突起１４の最も高い部分同士の間隔を表している。 Further, the interval Iv between the back projections 14 is preferably 0.3 mm or more and 2.0 mm or less and around 1.2 mm. The numerical value of the space | interval described here represents the space | interval of the highest parts of the back protrusion 14. FIG.
　背面突起１４は、基台部１９（背面１２）の略全長にわたって並んでいる。このように並んだ背面突起１４は、図６の（Ｅ）に示すようにまつ毛をさばくのに利用される。背面突起１４の突起側縁１４Ｓは、図２の（Ｃ）に示すように、その全てが背面１２の側縁１２１と同じ位置又は側縁１２１よりも内側に位置している。あるいは、背面１２の側縁１２１から突出する場合は突出量が１．８ｍｍ以下であるように設けられている。 The back projection 14 is arranged over substantially the entire length of the base 19 (back 12). The rear projections 14 arranged in this way are used for separating the eyelashes as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2C, all the protrusion side edges 14 </ b> S of the back surface protrusion 14 are located at the same position as the side edge 121 of the back surface 12 or inside the side edge 121. Alternatively, when protruding from the side edge 121 of the back surface 12, the protruding amount is provided to be 1.8 mm or less.
　更に、図３の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）に示すように、背面突起１４は、延在する方向（高さ方向）において、中央部１４Ｃが高く、それより両側縁に向かい漸次低くなる三日月形状としているが、最も高い位置を中央以外としてもよく、形状は限定されない。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, the back projection 14 has a crescent shape in which the central portion 14C is high in the extending direction (height direction) and gradually lowers toward both side edges. However, the highest position may be other than the center, and the shape is not limited.
　この構成によっても、図５の（Ｂ）に示すように、まつ毛の根元へ、塗布体１０で化粧料（マスカラ液）Ｍを塗布する際、反対側の部分が目に接触することを防止でき、接触の恐怖を低減することができる。

　＜比較例の構成を用いて化粧する際の目元と塗布具との位置関係＞
　図４の（Ａ）は比較例のマスカラの図３の（Ａ）のＰ方向から見た矢視図、図４の（Ｂ）は比較例のマスカラを用いて化粧をするときの目元の断面模式図である。 Even with this configuration, as shown in FIG. 5B, when applying the cosmetic (mascara liquid) M with the application body 10 to the base of the eyelashes, it is possible to prevent the opposite part from contacting the eyes. , Can reduce the fear of contact.

<Positional relationship between eyes and applicator when applying makeup using the configuration of the comparative example>
4A is an arrow view of the mascara of the comparative example seen from the direction P of FIG. 3A, and FIG. 4B is a cross-section of the eye when applying makeup using the mascara of the comparative example. It is a schematic diagram.
　ここでは、目元の化粧として、マスカラを塗布する際に、使用者は、鏡で自分のまつ毛（図中、上まつ毛ＵＡ、下まつ毛ＬＡ）の根元を視認しやすくするために、目線を下方に向けたり、顔を上向きにしたり、マスカラ塗布具４０を持っていない方の手の指でまぶた（上まぶたＵＩ，下まぶたＬＩ）を持ち上げたり、引っ張ったりすることが好ましい。 Here, when applying mascara as a makeup for the eyes, the user must keep the eye line downward to make it easy to see the roots of his eyelashes (upper eyelashes UA, lower eyelashes LA in the figure) with a mirror. It is preferable that the eyelid (upper eyelid UI, lower eyelid LI) is lifted or pulled with the finger of the hand that does not hold the mascara applicator 40.
　比較例として、軸部９１に対して放射状のブラシ９２を備える塗布体を備えるマスカラ塗布具９０について検討する。 As a comparative example, a mascara applicator 90 including an application body including a radial brush 92 with respect to the shaft portion 91 will be examined.
　ここで、マスカラ塗布具９０では図４の（Ａ）に示すように、使用者が持って操作する把持部３０と同一直線上であって、操作の力が直接伝わる軸部９１からブラシが放射状に長く飛び出している。このマスカラ塗布具９０を用いて、まつ毛ＵＡの根元にブラシ９２を接触させてマスカラ液を塗布する場合、軸部９１から突出した別の方向のブラシ９２の先端が眼球へ接触したり、まつ毛ＵＡの間隙からブラシの先端が突出してまぶたＵＩに当たってしまったりするおそれがある。 Here, in the mascara applicator 90, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), the brush is radiating from the shaft portion 91 that is collinear with the grip portion 30 that the user holds and operates, and to which the operation force is directly transmitted. Have long jumped out. When the mascara liquid is applied by bringing the brush 92 into contact with the base of the eyelashes UA using the mascara applicator 90, the tip of the brush 92 protruding from the shaft portion 91 comes into contact with the eyeball or the eyelashes UA. The tip of the brush may protrude from the gap and hit the eyelid UI.
　具体的に、図４の（Ｂ）に示すように、軸部９１からブラシ９２が放射状に飛び出していると、図中、円γで示すように、上まつ毛ＵＡを塗布しようとするブラシ９２ａに対し、反対側に突出するブラシ９２ｏが眼球ＥＢに当接するおそれがある。特に、先端に向かうにつれ先細りとなる錐形のブラシ９２を備えるマスカラ塗布具９０では、ブラシ９２の先端の接触部は点形状となるため、眼球ＥＢへの当接による恐怖を感じる傾向が強い。 Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4B, when the brush 92 protrudes radially from the shaft portion 91, as shown by a circle γ in the drawing, the brush 92a to which the upper eyelash UA is to be applied is applied. On the other hand, the brush 92o protruding to the opposite side may come into contact with the eyeball EB. In particular, in the mascara applicator 90 provided with the conical brush 92 that tapers toward the tip, the contact portion at the tip of the brush 92 has a point shape, and thus there is a strong tendency to feel fear due to contact with the eyeball EB.
　また、マスカラ塗布具９０をまぶたＵＩへ近づけすぎた場合、図中、円δで示すように、まつ毛ＵＡに塗布するために当接させるブラシ９２ａと隣接するブラシ９２ｂの先端が、まぶたＵＩに接触するおそれがある。また、接触により、まぶたＵＩの望まない部分にマスカラ液が付着してしまうと、その付着を落とす手間が必要となる。 Further, when the mascara applicator 90 is too close to the eyelid UI, as shown by a circle δ in the drawing, the tip of the brush 92b adjacent to the brush 92a to be applied to the eyelashes UA contacts the eyelid UI. There is a risk. Further, if the mascara liquid adheres to an undesired portion of the eyelid UI due to the contact, it is necessary to remove the adhesion.
　このように、使用者が比較例のマスカラ塗布具９０を用いて化粧する際に、塗布側と反対側のブラシ９２ｏの眼球ＥＢへの接触、塗布側に隣接するブラシ９２ｂのまぶたＵＩへの接触へのおそれ（恐怖心）があり、さらに、まぶたＵＩの望まない部分に化粧料が付着した場合には、付着を落とす煩わしさがある。そのため、使用者は、まつ毛ＵＡの根元へマスカラを塗布することを躊躇する傾向にある。 In this way, when the user makes up using the mascara applicator 90 of the comparative example, the brush 92o on the side opposite to the application side contacts the eyeball EB, and the brush 92b adjacent to the application side contacts the eyelid UI. If the cosmetics adhere to an undesired part of the eyelid UI, there is an annoyance of dropping the adhesion. Therefore, the user tends to hesitate to apply mascara to the base of the eyelashes UA.
　これに対し、本願の目元化粧用塗布具では、上記問題を解決することができる。 In contrast, the eye makeup applicator of the present application can solve the above problems.
　＜本願の構成を用いて化粧する際の目元と塗布具との位置関係＞
　図５の（Ａ）は、本願の一実施形態のマスカラ塗布具４０の図３の（Ａ）のＰ方向から見た矢視図、図５の（Ｂ）は本願の一実施形態のマスカラ塗布具４０を用いて化粧するときの目元の断面模式図を示す。 <Positional relationship between eyes and applicator when applying makeup using the configuration of the present application>
FIG. 5A is an arrow view of the mascara applicator 40 according to one embodiment of the present application viewed from the direction P in FIG. 3A, and FIG. 5B is a mascara application according to one embodiment of the present application. The cross-sectional schematic diagram of the eye when making up using the tool 40 is shown.
　本願の一実施形態のマスカラ塗布具４０を用いるとき、腹面１１を上方向に向けて、腹面突起１３及び側縁からの突出部１３２でまつ毛ＵＡの根元にマスカラ液を塗布すると、反対側の背面１２が眼球ＥＢに近接する。 When the mascara applicator 40 according to one embodiment of the present application is used, when the mascara liquid is applied to the base of the eyelashes UA with the abdominal surface protrusion 13 and the protruding portion 132 from the side edge with the abdominal surface 11 facing upward, the back surface on the opposite side 12 is close to the eyeball EB.
　ここで、上述のように背面１２の背面突起１４は、中央部１４Ｃが最も高く突出し、突起側縁１４Ｓになるにつれて徐々に低くなる三日月形状（略三日月形状）である。また、背面突起１４の突起側縁１４Ｓは、背面１２の側縁１２１と同じ位置又は背面１２の側縁１２１よりも内側に位置している（図５の（Ａ）参照）。あるいは、突起側縁１４Ｓが背側の側縁１２１から突出する場合は、突出量が１．８ｍｍ以下であるように設けられている。 Here, as described above, the rear projection 14 of the rear surface 12 has a crescent shape (substantially crescent shape) that protrudes the highest at the central portion 14C and gradually decreases as the projection side edge 14S is reached. Further, the protrusion side edge 14S of the back protrusion 14 is located at the same position as the side edge 121 of the back face 12 or inside the side edge 121 of the back face 12 (see FIG. 5A). Alternatively, when the protrusion side edge 14S protrudes from the back side edge 121, the protrusion amount is provided to be 1.8 mm or less.
　よって、図５の（Ｂ）に示すように、まつ毛ＵＡに塗布する腹面１１の腹面突起１３とは反対側の方向の図中、円αの位置には、基台部１９から背面突起１４が突出しないことになり、眼球ＥＢに塗布体１０が触れる可能性を低減することができる。 Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the drawing in the direction opposite to the abdominal surface protrusion 13 of the abdominal surface 11 applied to the eyelashes UA, the back surface protrusion 14 extends from the base 19 to the position of the circle α. Since it does not protrude, the possibility that the application body 10 touches the eyeball EB can be reduced.
　また、腹面突起１３の先端面１３１は、腹面１１と略相似形に腹面１１と略並行に湾曲して並ぶように配列されているので、まつ毛ＵＡのカーブ（カールしたまつ毛）に沿いやすい。 Further, since the distal end surface 131 of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 is arranged so as to be curved and arranged substantially parallel to the abdominal surface 11 in a shape similar to the abdominal surface 11, it is easy to follow the curve of the eyelashes UA (curled eyelashes).
　よって、図５の（Ｂ）の円βの位置で、まぶたＵＩに腹面突起１３が接触しないように調整しやすい。 Therefore, it is easy to adjust so that the abdominal protrusion 13 does not contact the eyelid UI at the position of the circle β in FIG.
　また、本発明の構成では、腹面突起１３の側縁からの突出部１３２が短い（例えば１．８ｍｍ以下である）ため、まつ毛ＵＡの根元のすきまに入れ込んだ際に、まぶたＵＩに接触しにくい。 Further, in the configuration of the present invention, since the protrusion 132 from the side edge of the ventral protrusion 13 is short (for example, 1.8 mm or less), it contacts the eyelid UI when it is inserted into the gap at the base of the eyelashes UA. Hateful.
　また、この実施形態では突出部１３２の先端面（側端起立面）は、腹面１１からの突起１３の突出の高さに相当し、所定の幅（例えば、０．１ｍｍ以上１．５ｍｍ以下、より好ましくは０．２ｍｍ以上０．８ｍｍ以下、例えば０．５ｍｍ程度）であると好適である。この幅を有しているので、突起１３の先端が尖っておらず、まぶたＵＩに接近する際の恐怖心を低減できる。 In this embodiment, the front end surface (side end upright surface) of the protrusion 132 corresponds to the height of the protrusion 13 protruding from the abdominal surface 11, and has a predetermined width (for example, 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm, More preferably, it is 0.2 mm or more and 0.8 mm or less (for example, about 0.5 mm). Since it has this width, the tip of the protrusion 13 is not sharp, and the fear of approaching the eyelid UI can be reduced.
　これにより、本実施形態のマスカラ塗布具を用いてまつ毛（上まつ毛ＵＡ、下まつ毛ＬＡ）の根元に化粧料Ｍを塗布する際に、眼球ＥＢやまぶた（上まぶたＵＩ、下まぶたＬＩ）への接触の恐怖が低減されるため、使用者は、まつ毛の根元にマスカラを確実に塗布することができる。 Thereby, when applying the cosmetic M to the roots of the eyelashes (upper eyelashes UA, lower eyelashes LA) using the mascara applicator of this embodiment, the eyeballs EB and eyelids (upper eyelid UI, lower eyelid LI) are applied. Since the fear of contact is reduced, the user can reliably apply mascara to the base of the eyelashes.
　＜使用態様＞
　図６は本発明の一実施形態の目元化粧用具のマスカラの上まつ毛への使用態様の例を示している。図６の（Ａ）及び（Ｂ）はまつ毛根元へのマスカラ液塗布時の正面図を示す。 <Usage>
FIG. 6 shows an example of how the eye cosmetic device according to one embodiment of the present invention is used on the upper eyelashes of mascara. (A) and (B) of FIG. 6 show the front view at the time of mascara application to the base of the eyelashes.
　図６の（Ｃ）はまつ毛根元へのマスカラ液塗布時の側面図、図６の（Ｄ）はまつ毛の中央部～先端部へのマスカラ液塗布時の側面図を示す。なお、図６の（Ｃ），（Ｄ）は機能の説明のため、使用者の目元は側面図を示すが、マスカラ塗布具４０は横断図を用いて説明する。図６の（Ａ）～（Ｄ）で示す塗布動作を行う際は、基台部１９の腹側（腹面１１，腹面突起１３）、と側縁側（側縁１１１（１２１）、突出部１３２）を利用する。 (C) in FIG. 6 is a side view when the mascara liquid is applied to the root of the eyelashes, and (D) in FIG. 6 is a side view when the mascara liquid is applied from the center to the tip of the eyelashes. 6 (C) and 6 (D) are side views of the user's eyes for explanation of functions, the mascara applicator 40 will be described using a cross-sectional view. When performing the application operation shown in FIGS. 6A to 6D, the ventral side (abdominal surface 11, abdominal projection 13) and the side edge side (side edge 111 (121), projecting portion 132) of the base 19 are used. Is used.
　図６の（Ｅ）はまつ毛中央部のまつ毛さばき時の斜視図、及び図６の（Ｆ）は目尻付近のまつ毛さばき時の斜視図を示す。 (E) in FIG. 6 is a perspective view when the eyelashes are split at the center of the eyelashes, and (F) in FIG. 6 is a perspective view when the eyelashes are near the corner of the eye.
　まず、まつ毛根元へのマスカラ液塗布時、図６の（Ａ）に示すように、腹面１１の湾曲Ｒを目元のカーブＲに対応させるように、目元（正面方向）に対して位置させる（差し込む）。このとき、側面では図６の（Ｃ）に示すように、まつ毛をかき分けるように、突出部１３２をまつ毛と接触させながら、マスカラ塗布具４０をまつ毛の根元へ当接させる。 First, when applying mascara liquid to the root of the eyelash root, as shown in FIG. 6A, the curve R of the abdominal surface 11 is positioned (inserted) so as to correspond to the curve R of the eye. ). At this time, as shown in FIG. 6C, the mascara applicator 40 is brought into contact with the base of the eyelashes while the protrusions 132 are in contact with the eyelashes so that the eyelashes are separated as shown in FIG.
　図６の（Ｂ）の正面図及び（Ｃ）の側面図に示すように、マスカラ塗布具４０をまつ毛の根元へ接触させ始める際、突出部１３２と側縁１１１との段差により、まつ毛を捌きながら（かき分けながら）、突出部１３２がまつ毛の根元に接触する。このとき、まつ毛の根元は、突出部１３２又は側縁１１１と接触している。 As shown in the front view of FIG. 6B and the side view of FIG. 6C, when the mascara applicator 40 starts to contact the root of the eyelashes, the eyelashes are combed by the step between the protrusion 132 and the side edge 111. However, the protrusion 132 contacts the root of the eyelashes. At this time, the root of the eyelashes is in contact with the protrusion 132 or the side edge 111.
　上記の図６の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）に示すように、腹側を上側に向けた使用態様（図６の（Ｂ））は次の塗布動作へ移行させやすい点で有利である。しかし、塗布開始の際、どちらの側縁側であっても、突出部１３２と側縁１１１による段差がまつ毛の根元へ当接していればよいため、腹側を眼球側に向けた使用態様、または腹側を下側に向けた使用態様のいずれであってもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 6 (B) and 6 (C) above, the usage mode (FIG. 6 (B)) with the ventral side facing upward is advantageous in that it is easy to shift to the next application operation. However, at the time of starting application, it is sufficient that the stepped portion 132 and the side edge 111 are in contact with the base of the eyelashes on either side edge side. Any of the usage modes in which the ventral side is directed downward may be used.
　ここで、本発明の実施形態では、図６の（Ｃ）から分かるように、突起１３，１４が眼球方向へ突出していないため、マスカラ塗布具４０が眼球へ接触する恐怖心を抑制できる。 Here, in the embodiment of the present invention, as can be seen from FIG. 6C, since the protrusions 13 and 14 do not protrude in the eyeball direction, fear of the mascara applicator 40 coming into contact with the eyeball can be suppressed.
　また、図６の（Ｃ）に示すように、突出部１３２がまつ毛の根元に入り込ませやすい形状（長さ）であることにより、まつ毛の根元から化粧料をしっかりと塗布することができる。ここで、突出部１３２がまつ毛の根元に入り込んで当接する状態である、図６の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）の状態で、まつ毛の根元に押し当てる。そして、しばらくの間、この押し当て状態を維持することで、まつ毛の根元が上方に向くようにする。 Also, as shown in FIG. 6C, the protrusion 132 has a shape (length) that can easily enter the roots of the eyelashes, so that the cosmetic can be firmly applied from the roots of the eyelashes. Here, in the state of (B) and (C) in FIG. 6 where the protrusion 132 enters and contacts the root of the eyelashes, it is pressed against the root of the eyelashes. Then, by maintaining this pressed state for a while, the base of the eyelashes is directed upward.
　その後、まつ毛中央部から先端部へマスカラ液を塗布するため、図６の（Ｄ）の状態のように塗布体１０の腹側（腹面１１、腹面突起１３）をまつ毛に当接させて押し当てながら、マスカラ塗布具４０をまつ毛に対して上方に移動させる。 Thereafter, in order to apply the mascara liquid from the center of the eyelashes to the tip, the abdomen (abdominal surface 11, abdominal projection 13) of the application body 10 is brought into contact with and pressed against the eyelashes as shown in FIG. Meanwhile, the mascara applicator 40 is moved upward with respect to the eyelashes.
　ここで、腹面突起１３の先端面１３１は、平面又は湾曲面（凹状、凸状）の面状であり、略等間隔に並ぶ隣接する腹面突起１３の間隔の溝は、腹面１１に相当するため、図６の（Ｄ）の状態では、まつ毛とマスカラ塗布具４０とは、まつ毛が伸びる方向と同じ方向に、面状に接触する。よって、まつ毛にきれいなカールが付与され、仕上がり性が良好になる。 Here, the front end surface 131 of the abdominal projection 13 is a plane or a curved surface (concave, convex), and the grooves between adjacent abdominal projections 13 arranged at substantially equal intervals correspond to the abdominal surface 11. In the state of FIG. 6D, the eyelashes and the mascara applicator 40 are contacted in a planar manner in the same direction as the direction in which the eyelashes extend. Therefore, a beautiful curl is imparted to the eyelashes and the finish is improved.
　さらに、基台部１９の腹面１１の曲率半径Ｒ１は、図６の（Ａ）で示すように、まぶたのカーブ（湾曲形状の曲率半径）Ｒに大体合致し、腹面１１は湾曲形状の少なくとも一部に合致して延在している。更に、腹面突起１３の先端面１３１はまぶたの湾曲形状の少なくとも一部に合致して長手方向Ｌへ凹状に湾曲するように並んでいる。そのため、目頭から目尻までの広い範囲にわたり、まつ毛を押し当てることができるので、押し当て回数が１回又は最小限の回数で済む。 Further, as shown in FIG. 6A, the curvature radius R1 of the abdominal surface 11 of the base portion 19 substantially matches the eyelid curve (curved curvature radius) R, and the abdominal surface 11 has at least one curved shape. It extends to match the part. Further, the distal end surface 131 of the abdominal projection 13 is aligned to match at least a part of the curved shape of the eyelid and is curved in a concave shape in the longitudinal direction L. Therefore, since the eyelashes can be pressed over a wide range from the top of the eye to the outside of the eyes, the number of times of pressing may be one or the minimum number.
　このように、マスカラ液をまつ毛に塗布する際、目のカーブの端部に位置する目頭や目尻ではまつ毛が短いため、マスカラ塗布具４０が太いと当接させづらい。よって、目頭や目尻にマスカラ液を塗布する際、マスカラ塗布具４０の塗布体１０の細い部分を目頭や目尻に当接させると好適である。本実施形態において、塗布体１０の針状先端１５に向けて、基台部１９は高さ方向Ｈ及び幅方向Ｓ（図２の（Ｂ）参照）において先細り形状であるため、図６の（Ｂ）の目頭側（Ｉ）又は目尻側（Ｔ）のように、マスカラ塗布具４０の塗布体１０の先端部分を利用することで、目頭や目尻側の短いまつ毛にも化粧料が塗布しやすくなり、操作性が向上する。 Thus, when the mascara liquid is applied to the eyelashes, the eyelashes are short at the corners of the eyes and at the corners of the eyes, so that the mascara applicator 40 is difficult to come into contact with the eyelashes. Therefore, when the mascara liquid is applied to the eyes and the corners of the eyes, it is preferable that the thin portion of the application body 10 of the mascara applicator 40 is brought into contact with the eyes and the corners of the eyes. In the present embodiment, since the base 19 is tapered in the height direction H and the width direction S (see FIG. 2B) toward the needle-like tip 15 of the application body 10, ( By using the tip of the application body 10 of the mascara applicator 40 as in the case of the eye side (I) or the eye corner side (T) of B), the cosmetics can be easily applied to the short eyelashes on the eyes or the eye corner side. Thus, the operability is improved.
　上記のように、側面から見て図６の（Ｃ）の角度⇒（Ｄ）の角度で、目元（正面）に対して図６の（Ａ）⇒（Ｂ）のような相対位置で、塗布する操作によって、まつ毛にマスカラ液を塗布する。なお、必要に応じて、所望の量のマスカラ液がまつ毛に塗布されるまで、上記塗布の操作を繰り返してもよい。 As described above, when viewed from the side, it is applied at an angle of (C) in FIG. 6 → (D) and at a relative position as shown in FIG. 6 (A) → (B) with respect to the eye (front). Apply mascara solution to the eyelashes. In addition, as needed, you may repeat the said operation of application | coating until a desired quantity of mascara liquid is apply | coated to an eyelash.
　ここで、マスカラ液が塗布されたまつ毛は、マスカラ液の有する粘性によって、複数本が束になった状態になることがある。そこで、束になった状態のまつ毛を一本一本分離させるための操作を次に行う。 Here, the eyelashes to which the mascara liquid is applied may be in a bundled state due to the viscosity of the mascara liquid. Therefore, an operation for separating eyelashes in a bundled state one by one is performed next.
　図６の（Ｅ）に示すように、マスカラ塗布具４０の腹側と背側を上下反転させて、基台部１９の背面１２を目元に近づける。そして背面１２に設けられた背面突起１４によって、まつ毛を根元から先端に向けて梳き上げる。まつ毛は、背面１２に形成されている背面突起１４間の溝部に案内され、背面突起１４によって梳かれる（セパレート効果）。なお、図６の（Ｅ）では、背面１２及び背面突起１４を用いて、上側からまつ毛を梳く例を示しているが、背面１２及び背面突起１４を用いて、下側からまつ毛を梳いてもよい。 6 (E), the abdomen and the back of the mascara applicator 40 are turned upside down so that the back surface 12 of the base 19 is brought close to the eyes. Then, the eyelashes are rolled up from the root toward the tip by the back projection 14 provided on the back surface 12. The eyelashes are guided by the groove between the back projections 14 formed on the back surface 12, and are curled by the back projections 14 (separate effect). 6E shows an example in which the eyelashes are combed from the upper side using the back surface 12 and the back projection 14, but the eyelashes can be combed from the lower side using the back surface 12 and the back projection 14. Good.
　ここで、基台部１９において、上記のように塗布体１０が軸に対して傾斜することで、マスカラ塗布具４０をマスカラ容器５０から取り外す際、塗布体１０がしごき部材５２（図１の（Ａ）参照）を通過する際に、腹側（腹面１１、腹面突起１３）は付着した化粧料が残るが、背側（背面１２，背面突起１４）は化粧料がしごかれる。更に、背面１２は表面が凸形状なので、マスカラ液中に浸漬後、しごき部材５２を通過する際に、マスカラ液が背面１２，背面突起１４には残りづらい。よって、図６の（Ｅ）のように、背面１２，背面突起１４でまつ毛を捌くときに、追加のダマが発生することを防止できる。 Here, in the base part 19, when the application body 10 inclines with respect to an axis | shaft as mentioned above, when removing the mascara application tool 40 from the mascara container 50, the application body 10 is the squeezing member 52 ((( When passing through (see A), the adhering cosmetic material remains on the abdominal side (abdominal surface 11, abdominal surface protrusion 13), but the cosmetic material is squeezed on the back side (rear surface 12, rear surface protrusion 14). Furthermore, since the back surface 12 has a convex shape, it is difficult for the mascara liquid to remain on the back surface 12 and the back projection 14 when passing through the ironing member 52 after being immersed in the mascara liquid. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6E, when the eyelashes are combed by the back surface 12 and the back surface projection 14, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of additional lumps.
　腹面１１の突出部１３２と腹面突起１３による化粧料塗布と、背面１２と背面突起１４による束になったまつ毛を分離させる操作を所望の回数繰り返して、希望する仕上がりを得る。 The cosmetic finish application by the protrusion 132 and the ventral protrusion 13 of the ventral surface 11 and the operation of separating the eyelashes bundled by the back surface 12 and the back protrusion 14 are repeated a desired number of times to obtain a desired finish.
　図６の（Ｅ）に示す操作でも、複数本のまつ毛の束がほどかれない場合、例えば、目元の構造上、カーブの終端となる目頭や目尻付近では束がほどかれないことがあるが、図６の（Ｆ）のような方法で束になったまつ毛を分離させることも可能である。 In the operation shown in (E) of FIG. 6, when a bundle of a plurality of eyelashes cannot be unwound, for example, on the structure of the eye area, the bunch may not be unwound near the corner of the eye or the corner of the eye, It is also possible to separate the bundled eyelashes by a method as shown in FIG.
　図６の（Ｆ）では、目尻付近のまつ毛さばき時であって、基台部１９の先端である先細り形状の針状先端１５あるいは先端付近の突出部１３２でダマをかき分けることで、束になったまつ毛を分ける。 In FIG. 6 (F), when the eyelashes are measured near the corner of the eye, a bundle is formed by scraping the lumps with the tapered needle tip 15 which is the tip of the base 19 or the protrusion 132 near the tip. Separate the eyelashes.
　このように本実施形態によれば、塗布体１０の種々の面を使い分けることで、まつ毛を根元から立ち上げてまつ毛全体をカールし、ボリューム感を持たせると共にダマやムラを防ぎ良好な仕上がりを実現できる。よって、本願のマスカラ塗布具でマスカラを塗布することで、まつ毛の根元に当てても怖くなく、メーキャップ効果も両立することが可能になる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, by properly using various surfaces of the application body 10, the eyelashes are raised from the base to curl the entire eyelashes, giving a sense of volume and preventing lumps and unevenness, thereby achieving a good finish. realizable. Therefore, by applying the mascara with the mascara applicator of the present application, it is not afraid to hit the root of the eyelashes, and a makeup effect can be achieved.
　また、本願の目元化粧用塗布具を用いて、化粧料を下まつ毛へ塗布することもできる。図７の（Ａ）～（Ｄ）は本発明の一実施形態の目元化粧用塗布具のマスカラの下まつ毛への使用態様の例である。図７の（Ａ）は、背側を上に向けた使用例の正面図で、（Ｂ）は（Ａ）に対応する側面図である。図７の（Ｃ）は、腹側を上に向けた使用例の正面図で、（Ｄ）は（Ｃ）に対応する側面図である。 Also, the cosmetics can be applied to the lower eyelashes using the eye makeup applicator of the present application. FIGS. 7A to 7D are examples of usage of the eye cosmetic applicator of the embodiment of the present invention on the lower eyelashes of mascara. (A) of FIG. 7 is a front view of the usage example with the back side facing upward, and (B) is a side view corresponding to (A). (C) of FIG. 7 is a front view of a usage example with the abdomen facing upward, and (D) is a side view corresponding to (C).
　図７の（Ｂ）及び（Ｄ）に示す断面図からわかるように、いずれの場合であっても側面の段差（側縁側の突出部１３２と側縁１１１（１２１））をまつ毛の根元に当て、毛先に向かって梳かしおろすように塗布する。そのため、ダマを発生させずに、まつ毛を捌きながら、マスカラを下まつ毛へ均等に塗布することができる。 As can be seen from the cross-sectional views shown in FIGS. 7B and 7D, in either case, the step on the side surface (the protruding portion 132 on the side edge side and the side edge 111 (121)) is applied to the root of the eyelashes. Apply to the hair ends. Therefore, mascara can be evenly applied to the lower eyelashes while combing the eyelashes without causing lumps.
　あるいは、図６の（Ｆ）のような向きで、塗布体１０の針状先端１５を用いて、下まつ毛にマスカラを塗布してもよい。 Alternatively, mascara may be applied to the lower eyelashes using the needle-like tip 15 of the application body 10 in the direction as shown in FIG.
　なお、本願の目元化粧用塗布具において、図６及び図７のように塗布する化粧料（液体）は、マスカラ塗布用に限られず、例えば、まつ毛用育毛剤や、マスカラ下地、まつ毛エクステ用のコーティング剤、まつ毛エクステ用美容液等であってもよい。 In the eye cosmetic applicator of the present application, the cosmetic (liquid) to be applied as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 is not limited to mascara application. For example, for eyelash hair restorer, mascara base, and eyelash extension. It may be a coating agent, a serum for eyelash extension, or the like.
　更に本願の目元化粧用塗布具は、アイライナーとして用いることもできる。図８は本発明の一実施形態の目元化粧用塗布具のアイライナーの使用態様の例を示し、図８の（Ａ）は細めにアイラインを引く場合の正面図、図８の（Ｂ）は太めにアイラインを引く場合の正面図を示す。 Furthermore, the eye cosmetic applicator of the present application can also be used as an eyeliner. FIG. 8 shows an example of how the eyeliner of the eye cosmetic applicator according to one embodiment of the present invention is used. FIG. 8A is a front view when a thin eyeline is drawn, and FIG. Shows a front view when the eyeline is drawn thickly.
　図８の（Ａ）及び（Ｂ）に示すように、アイライナー使用時では、目の縁部に、マスカラ塗布具４０の針状先端１５を当接させるか、側縁１１１から延出する腹面突起１３の突出部１３２を当接させてアイラインを描いて（引いて）もよい。 As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, when the eyeliner is used, the needle-like tip 15 of the mascara applicator 40 is brought into contact with the edge of the eye or extends from the side edge 111. An eyeline may be drawn (pulled) by bringing the protrusion 132 of the protrusion 13 into contact.
　ここで、アイラインを引く際には、鏡で自分のまつ毛の根元を視認しやすくするため、並びにアイラインを引きやすくするために、まぶたを指で持ち上げたり、まぶたを横方向へ引っ張ったり、下方を向いてまぶたを半開きにしてもよい。 Here, when drawing the eyeline, in order to make it easy to see the root of your eyelashes with a mirror, and to make it easier to draw the eyeline, you can lift the eyelid with your finger, pull the eyelid laterally, The eyelids may be opened halfway facing downward.
　まぶたのアイラインを描く領域を目尻部、中央部、目頭部に分割し、この順にアイラインと描くと美しい仕上がりが得られる（各部位の中では、目頭から目尻方向へ手を動かしてラインを描く）が、使用方法はこれに限定されるものではない。 Divide the eyeline eyeline area into the corner of the eye, the center, and the head of the eye, and draw the eyeline in this order to obtain a beautiful finish. However, the method of use is not limited to this.
　ここで、アイライナーとしての用途を考慮して、本願の目元化粧用塗布具は、少なくとも先端部（針状先端１５）に、フロッキー１６が付与（フロッキー処理（表面の静電植毛））されていると肌あたりの観点から好ましい。 Here, in consideration of the use as an eyeliner, at least the tip part (needle-like tip 15) is provided with a flocky 16 (flocky treatment (electrostatic flocking on the surface)). It is preferable from the viewpoint of per skin.
　＜基台部の変形例＞
　図９は、本発明の基台部１９の複数の変形例の横断図を示す。 <Modification of base part>
FIG. 9 shows cross sections of a plurality of modifications of the base 19 of the present invention.
　図９は、突起１３，１４を除いた基台部１９の複数の変形例を示す。上記実施形態では、図９の（Ａ）に示すように、基台部１９は、幅方向で切断した断面において、腹面１１は平面形状で、背面１２は、外側に凸状に湾曲している。しかし、基台部１９の形状はこれに限られず、様々な形態がとり得る。 FIG. 9 shows a plurality of modified examples of the base part 19 excluding the protrusions 13 and 14. In the said embodiment, as shown to (A) of FIG. 9, the base part 19 is the cross section cut | disconnected in the width direction, the abdominal surface 11 is planar shape, and the back surface 12 is curving convexly outward. . However, the shape of the base 19 is not limited to this, and can take various forms.
　例えば図９の（Ｂ）～（Ｄ）に示すように、面の形状が異なっていてもよい。図９の（Ｂ）は背面１２aの湾曲が図９の（Ａ）に比べて大きくなっている。図９の（Ｃ）は、腹面１１ａが窪んで湾曲した構成となっている。このとき、窪んだ部分の曲率は、腹側よりも背面の方が大きくなっている。図９の（Ｄ）は、腹面１１ｂが外側に向けて突出する湾曲形状とされている。 For example, as shown in FIGS. 9B to 9D, the shape of the surface may be different. 9B, the curvature of the back surface 12a is larger than that in FIG. 9A. FIG. 9C shows a configuration in which the abdominal surface 11a is bent and curved. At this time, the curvature of the recessed portion is larger on the back side than on the ventral side. FIG. 9D shows a curved shape in which the abdominal surface 11b protrudes outward.
　更に、図９の（Ｅ）～（Ｇ）に示すように、腹面１１と背面１２との間に、側面１８を設けてもよい。この場合も、上記図９の（Ａ）～（Ｄ）と同様に、面の形状について適宜変形してもよい。例えば、図９の（Ｆ）に示すように、腹面１１ａが凹状に少し湾曲していてもよい。図９の（Ｇ）に示すように、腹面１１ｂが凸状に少し湾曲していてもよい。 Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 9E to 9G, a side surface 18 may be provided between the abdominal surface 11 and the back surface 12. Also in this case, the shape of the surface may be appropriately changed as in the case of (A) to (D) of FIG. For example, as shown in FIG. 9F, the abdominal surface 11a may be slightly curved in a concave shape. As shown in FIG. 9G, the abdominal surface 11b may be slightly curved in a convex shape.
　なお、いずれの形態の場合も、眼球への塗布体１０の接触の恐怖を回避するため、背面１２は外側に凸状に湾曲する湾曲面であると好適である。 In any case, in order to avoid fear of contact of the application body 10 with the eyeball, the back surface 12 is preferably a curved surface that curves outwardly.
　＜突起の変形例＞
　図１０は、本発明の腹面突起の複数の変形例を示す。図１０の（Ａ）、（Ｃ）～（Ｆ）はマスカラ塗布具４０（塗布体１０）の横断図であり、図１０の（Ｂ）が、図３の（Ａ）のＰ方向から見た（斜め上から見た）図１０の（Ａ）の塗布体１０の矢視図である。 <Modification of protrusion>
FIG. 10 shows a plurality of modifications of the ventral projection of the present invention. 10A and 10C are cross-sectional views of the mascara applicator 40 (applied body 10), and FIG. 10B is viewed from the P direction of FIG. 3A. It is the arrow line view of the application body 10 of (A) of FIG.
　上述の実施形態では、腹面突起１３の先端面（稜線）１３１は図３の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）に示すように、平面形状であった。しかし、腹面突起の形状は平面な形状に限られず、先端面１３１を曲面等の様々な形状とすることができる。 In the above-described embodiment, the tip surface (ridge line) 131 of the ventral protrusion 13 has a planar shape as shown in FIGS. However, the shape of the abdominal surface protrusion is not limited to a flat shape, and the distal end surface 131 can have various shapes such as a curved surface.
　例えば図１０の（Ａ）に示すように、腹面突起１３ａの先端面１３１ａが凸状に湾曲した面としてもよい。腹面突起１３ａの先端面１３１ａを湾曲面とした場合であっても、基台部１９から突出する高さＴｃ及び突出部１３２ａの長さは、上述の実施形態と同様で、短いため、まぶたと接触しづらい。 For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the distal end surface 131a of the abdominal surface protrusion 13a may be a curved surface. Even when the distal end surface 131a of the abdominal surface protrusion 13a is a curved surface, the height Tc protruding from the base portion 19 and the length of the protruding portion 132a are the same as in the above-described embodiment, and are short. Difficult to touch.
　また、図１０の（Ｂ）は図１０の（Ａ）の構成の矢視図である（なお、図１０（Ｂ）では背面突起１４を少し大きめに示している）。腹面突起１３ａにおいて、先端面１３１ａが湾曲していても、幅方向において、突出の根元と前記突出の先端面１３１ａとは略等しい幅Ｗｃを備えている。従って、まつ毛との当接面は膨らんだカーブ面形状になり、尖った形状ではないため、マスカラ塗布時に塗布体１０が目に接近することへの恐怖感を低減することができる。 FIG. 10B is an arrow view of the configuration of FIG. 10A (note that the back projection 14 is shown slightly larger in FIG. 10B). In the ventral protrusion 13a, even if the distal end surface 131a is curved, the protruding root and the protruding distal end surface 131a have substantially the same width Wc in the width direction. Therefore, the contact surface with the eyelashes has a bulging curved surface shape and is not a sharp shape, so that the fear of the application body 10 approaching the eyes during mascara application can be reduced.
　また、図１０の（Ｃ）で示すように、腹面突起１３ｂの幅方向の全体を凸状の湾曲面形状（略半楕円形状）としてもよい。さらに、図１０の（Ｄ）に示すように、腹面突起１３ｃの全体が楕円の一部を切断して切断面を腹面１１と連接させた形状であってもよい。 Also, as shown in FIG. 10C, the entire width direction of the abdominal surface protrusion 13b may be a convex curved surface shape (substantially semi-elliptical shape). Further, as shown in FIG. 10D, the entire abdominal surface protrusion 13 c may have a shape in which a part of an ellipse is cut and the cut surface is connected to the abdominal surface 11.
　または、図１０の（Ｅ）に示すように、腹面曲面を腹面突起１３ｄの側面だけに形成してもよい。更に、図１０の（Ｆ）に示すように、腹面突起１３ｅの先端面１３１ｅを窪んだ湾曲面としてもよい。 Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 10E, the abdominal surface curved surface may be formed only on the side surface of the abdominal surface protrusion 13d. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 10 (F), the distal end surface 131e of the abdominal surface protrusion 13e may be a concave curved surface.
　いずれの構成の場合も、腹面突起１３（１３ａ，１３ｂ，１３ｃ，１３ｄ，１３ｅ）の、基台部１９から腹面方向の突出長さである高さＴｃは短く、さらに、側縁方向へ延出する突出部１３２の突出方向の長さＬｐは短いため、まぶたと接触しづらい。 In any case, the height Tc, which is the length of the protrusion in the abdominal surface direction from the base portion 19, of the abdominal surface protrusion 13 (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d, 13e) is short and further extends in the side edge direction. Since the length Lp in the protruding direction of the protruding portion 132 is short, it is difficult to contact the eyelid.
　図１１は、本発明の腹面突起の複数の変形例を更に示す。上記図１０に示す変形例では、突起の形状は左右対象であった。しかし、図１１に示すように、突起の形状は左右対象に限られず、様々な形態がとり得る。図１１の（Ａ）、（Ｃ）～（Ｇ）はマスカラ塗布具４０（塗布体１０）の横断図であり、図１１の（Ｂ）が、図３の（Ａ）のＰ方向から見た矢視図である。 FIG. 11 further shows a plurality of modified examples of the ventral projection of the present invention. In the modification shown in FIG. 10 above, the shape of the protrusion is the left and right object. However, as shown in FIG. 11, the shape of the protrusion is not limited to the left and right objects, and can take various forms. 11A, 11C, and 11G are cross-sectional views of the mascara applicator 40 (applying body 10), and FIG. 11B is viewed from the P direction in FIG. 3A. It is an arrow view.
　図１１の（Ａ）に示す、腹面１１から突出する腹面突起（壁状突起）１３ｆは、延在する方向に対し漸次その高さが変化するよう形成されている。よって、腹面突起１３ｆの先端面（上面）１３１ｆは傾斜面となる。また、腹面突起１３ｆは、その一端（側面）１３３ｆが平面とされている。 11A, the ventral projection (wall projection) 13f protruding from the ventral surface 11 is formed so that its height gradually changes in the extending direction. Therefore, the tip surface (upper surface) 131f of the ventral protrusion 13f is an inclined surface. Further, the abdominal surface protrusion 13f has a flat end at one end (side surface) 133f.
　また図１１の（Ｂ）に示す例では、腹面突起１３ｆの一端１３３ｆは腹面１１の側縁１１１から突出しているが、他端は、腹面１１の側縁１１１とは、一致しており突出していない。更に、隣接する腹面突起１３ｆの離間距離は等間隔とされており、腹面突起１３ｆの先端面１３１は平面であるため、まつ毛或いはまつ毛の生え際と腹面突起１３ｆは面接触する。 In the example shown in FIG. 11B, one end 133f of the abdominal surface protrusion 13f protrudes from the side edge 111 of the abdominal surface 11, but the other end coincides with the side edge 111 of the abdominal surface 11 and protrudes. Absent. Further, the distances between the adjacent ventral projections 13f are equal, and the tip surface 131 of the ventral projection 13f is a flat surface, so that the eyelashes or the hairline of the eyelashes and the ventral projection 13f are in surface contact.
　なお、図１１の（Ａ）に示す腹面突起１３ｆではその一端１３３ｆを平面としたが、図１１の（Ｂ）に示すように腹面突起１３ｇの一端１３３ｇを外側に膨らむ湾曲面としてもよい。また、図１１の（Ａ）に示す腹面突起１３ｆでは、上面を平面形状としたが、図１１の（Ｄ）に示すように、腹面突起１３ｈの上面が膨らむ湾曲面としてもよい。 In addition, although the end 133f of the abdominal surface protrusion 13f shown in FIG. 11A is a flat surface, the end 133g of the abdominal surface protrusion 13g may be a curved surface that swells outward as shown in FIG. 11B. In addition, although the upper surface of the ventral protrusion 13f shown in FIG. 11A is planar, the upper surface of the abdominal protrusion 13h may be curved as shown in FIG. 11D.
　更に、接触する面は腹面１１の全面すべてに設置されなくてもよい。例えば図１１の（Ｅ）に示す腹面突起１３ｉのように、部分的に設けられてもよい。基台部１９の腹面のうち、腹面突起１３ｉが存在しない部位において、基台部１９の腹面に、幅方向に複数の溝部（図示せず）が形成されていてもよい。 Furthermore, the contacting surface may not be installed on the entire surface of the abdominal surface 11. For example, it may be partially provided like an abdominal protrusion 13i shown in FIG. A plurality of groove portions (not shown) may be formed in the width direction on the abdominal surface of the base portion 19 in a portion of the abdominal surface of the base portion 19 where the abdominal surface protrusion 13i does not exist.
　また、腹面突起は、２列に設けられてもよい。２列に設ける場合は、図１１の（Ｆ）に示すように、腹面突起１３ｊは連接して設置されてもよいし、図１１の（Ｇ）に示すように腹面突起１３ｋは離れて（２列に）設置されてもよい。基台部１９の腹面のうち、腹面突起１３kが存在しない部位において、基台部１９の腹面に、幅方向に複数の溝部（図示せず）が形成されていてもよい。 Further, the ventral protrusions may be provided in two rows. When provided in two rows, as shown in FIG. 11 (F), the abdominal surface protrusion 13j may be connected and installed, or as shown in FIG. 11 (G), the abdominal surface protrusion 13k is separated (2 May be installed). A plurality of grooves (not shown) may be formed in the width direction on the abdominal surface of the base portion 19 in a portion of the abdominal surface of the base portion 19 where the abdominal surface protrusion 13k does not exist.
　＜背面突起の変形例＞
　図１２の（Ａ）～（Ｋ）は、本発明に係る背面突起の複数の変形例の横断図である。 <Modification of back projection>
12A to 12K are cross-sectional views of a plurality of modifications of the back projection according to the present invention.
　図１２の（Ａ）は上述の実施形態(例えば、図２，図３，図６等)に対応する背面突起１４を備えるマスカラ塗布体１０の横断面を示す。図１２の（Ａ）では、突起１４は、線対称の三日月形状であった。しかし、背面突起１４の突出開始位置は、背面の縁部に収まっていなくてもよい。 (A) of FIG. 12 shows the cross section of the mascara application body 10 provided with the back protrusion 14 corresponding to the above-mentioned embodiment (for example, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 6 etc.). In FIG. 12A, the protrusion 14 has a line-symmetric crescent shape. However, the protrusion start position of the back protrusion 14 may not be within the edge of the back face.
　例えば、背面突起１４の突出は、背面１２の側縁（外周縁）１２１を超えていてもよい。図１２の（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）に示すように、例えば、腹面突起１３の側端１３３と同じ位置から、背面突起１４ａ，１４ｂが突出してもよい。さらに、円弧形状は、基台部１９に対して対称形状でなくてもよく、非対称に傾斜していてもよい。

　なお、図１２の（Ｃ）に示すように、基台部１９の幅方向の中央部付近に背面突起１４ｂが存在しない場合、基台部１９の背面に、幅方向に複数の溝部１２Ｇが形成されていてもよい。 For example, the protrusion of the back protrusion 14 may exceed the side edge (outer peripheral edge) 121 of the back surface 12. As shown in FIGS. 12B and 12C, for example, the back protrusions 14 a and 14 b may protrude from the same position as the side end 133 of the abdominal surface protrusion 13. Furthermore, the arc shape may not be symmetrical with respect to the base part 19 and may be inclined asymmetrically.

As shown in FIG. 12C, when the back projection 14b does not exist near the center portion in the width direction of the base portion 19, a plurality of groove portions 12G are formed in the width direction on the back surface of the base portion 19. May be.
　さらに、背面突起１４の頂面（先端面）は、全ての部分で湾曲していなくてもよい。例えば、２つ以上の複数の頂点を備える、四角形状であってもよい。 Furthermore, the top surface (tip surface) of the back protrusion 14 does not have to be curved at all portions. For example, a quadrangular shape including two or more vertices may be used.
　背面突起１４が四角形状である例として、図１２の（Ｄ）、（Ｅ）及び（Ｆ）に示すように、台形形状であってもよい。この際、安全性を考慮し、背面突起１４ｃ、１４ｄ，１４ｅの角の部分が丸みを帯びているとよい。なお、四角形状又は上述の円弧形状は、基台部１９に対して対称形状でなくてもよく、図１２の（Ｅ）に示すように、非対称に傾斜していてもよい。 As an example in which the back protrusion 14 has a quadrangular shape, a trapezoidal shape may be used as shown in FIGS. 12D, 12E, and 12F. At this time, in consideration of safety, the corner portions of the back projections 14c, 14d, and 14e are preferably rounded. Note that the quadrangular shape or the above-described arc shape may not be symmetrical with respect to the base portion 19 and may be inclined asymmetrically as shown in FIG.
　さらに、背面突起１４の側端は、腹面突起１３の側端よりも突出していてもよい。例えば図１２の（Ｇ）に示すように、非対称の四角形状の背面突起１４ｆにおいてｐｄ１部分が腹面突起１３よりも突出している。 Furthermore, the side edge of the back protrusion 14 may protrude beyond the side edge of the ventral protrusion 13. For example, as shown in FIG. 12G, the pd1 portion protrudes from the abdominal surface protrusion 13 in the asymmetric quadrangular back protrusion 14f.
　また、背面突起１４の側端は、腹面突起１３の側端よりも突出している場合、両端側から突出していてもよい。図１２の（Ｈ）に示すように、例えば矩形形状の背面突起１４ｇにおいて、両端のｐｄ２の部分が腹面突起１３の側端１３３から突出している。 Further, when the side edge of the back protrusion 14 protrudes from the side edge of the ventral protrusion 13, it may protrude from both end sides. As shown in (H) of FIG. 12, for example, in a rectangular rear protrusion 14 g, pd <b> 2 portions at both ends protrude from the side end 133 of the abdominal protrusion 13.
　あるいは、背面突起１４を腹面突起１３の側端よりも突出させるために、図１２の（Ｉ）、（Ｊ）及び（Ｋ）に示すように、一対の背面突起（１４ｉ，１４ｈ）、（１４ｋ，１４ｊ）、（１４ｌ，１４ｍ）を設けてもよい。 Alternatively, in order to protrude the rear projection 14 from the side edge of the ventral projection 13, a pair of rear projections (14i, 14h), (14k) as shown in (I), (J) and (K) of FIG. , 14j), (141, 14m) may be provided.
　図１２の（Ｇ）～（Ｋ）に示すように、背面突起１４の側端は、腹面突起１３の側端１３３よりも突出している場合、背面突起１４を図６の（Ｃ）に示すようなまつ毛の根元の立ち上げ動作に利用してもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 12G to 12K, when the side end of the back projection 14 protrudes from the side end 133 of the abdominal projection 13, the back projection 14 is shown in FIG. You may use for the starting operation | movement of the base of a lashes.
　図１２の（Ｇ）～（Ｋ）に示す構成で、腹面突起の側端と、背面突起の側端との距離（段差）が大きすぎる（長すぎる）と、まぶたに接触しやすくなってしまう。そのため、背面突起１４の側端と、腹面突起１３の側端１３３又は腹面１１の側縁１１１のいずれか短い方の距離（ｐｄ１，ｐｄ２，ｐｄ３，ｐｄ４，ｐｄ５）が、１．０ｍｍ以下であると好適である。 In the configuration shown in FIGS. 12G to 12K, if the distance (step) between the side edge of the abdominal projection and the side edge of the back projection is too large (too long), contact with the eyelid is likely to occur. . Therefore, the shorter distance (pd1, pd2, pd3, pd4, pd5) of the side end of the back projection 14 and the side end 133 of the ventral projection 13 or the side edge 111 of the abdominal surface 11 is 1.0 mm or less. It is preferable.
　＜側面突起の変形例＞
　図１３は、本発明に係る側面突起の複数の変形例の横断図である。上述の図９の（Ｅ）～（Ｇ）に示すように、腹面１１と背面１２との間に、側面１８を設けている場合、側面１８から突出する側面突起が設けられていてもよい。 <Modification of side projection>
FIG. 13 is a cross-sectional view of a plurality of modifications of the side protrusions according to the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 9E to 9G described above, when the side surface 18 is provided between the abdominal surface 11 and the back surface 12, a side projection protruding from the side surface 18 may be provided.
　図１３の例では、図９の（Ｅ）の構造に対して、側面突起を設けている。側面突起を設ける場合は、図６の（Ｃ）に示すようなまつ毛の根元の立ち上げ動作に適用可能にするため、腹面１１に対して上方に突出していると好適である。 In the example of FIG. 13, side protrusions are provided for the structure of FIG. When the side protrusions are provided, it is preferable that the protrusions protrude upward with respect to the abdominal surface 11 in order to be applicable to the raising operation at the base of the eyelashes as shown in FIG.
　側面突起は、例えば、図１３の（Ａ）の側面突起１８ａに示すように、起立面（腹側）を直線状にしてもよいし、図１３の（Ｂ）の側面突起１８ｂに示すように、起立面が曲面形状であってもよい。 For example, as shown in the side projection 18a in FIG. 13A, the side projection may have a straight standing surface (abdominal side), or as shown in the side projection 18b in FIG. 13B. The rising surface may be a curved surface.
　また、側面突起は、図１３の（Ｃ）に示す側面突起１８ｃ，１８ｄのように、両側の側面１８に設けてもよい。ここで、側面突起を設ける場合、側面突起（１３ａ，１３ｂ，１３ｃの角の部分が丸みを帯びているように構成する。 Further, the side projections may be provided on the side surfaces 18 on both sides like the side projections 18c and 18d shown in FIG. Here, when the side protrusions are provided, the corners of the side protrusions (13a, 13b, 13c) are rounded.
　また、図１３の（Ｄ）は図１３（Ａ）の構成の図３の（Ａ）のＰ方向の簡略化した矢視図である。側面突起１８ａにおいて、幅方向において、突出の根元と先端面とは略等しい幅Ｗｘを備えている。従って、まつ毛との当接面は面状、カーブ面形状、又は丸みを帯びた角部であり、尖った形状ではないため、マスカラ塗布時に塗布体１０が目に接近することへの恐怖感を低減することができる。 FIG. 13D is a simplified arrow view in the P direction of FIG. 3A of the configuration of FIG. In the side protrusion 18a, the base of the protrusion and the tip surface have a substantially equal width Wx in the width direction. Accordingly, the contact surface with the eyelashes is a surface shape, a curved surface shape, or a rounded corner, and is not a pointed shape. Therefore, there is a fear that the application body 10 approaches the eyes when applying mascara. Can be reduced.
　なお、図１３の横断面において、腹面突起１３、背面突起１４は図示していないが、側面突起を設ける場合に腹面突起１３又は/及び背面突起１４と一緒に設けてもよいし、腹面突起１３又は背面突起１４のいずれかに代えて側面突起としてもよい。腹面突起１３又は背面突起１４のいずれかが存在しない場合は、基台部１９の幅方向に延びる複数の溝部（図示せず）が形成されていてもよい。 In the cross section of FIG. 13, the abdominal projection 13 and the back projection 14 are not shown. However, when the side projection is provided, the abdominal projection 13 and / or the back projection 14 may be provided together. Alternatively, a side protrusion may be used instead of any of the back protrusions 14. When either the ventral protrusion 13 or the back protrusion 14 is not present, a plurality of grooves (not shown) extending in the width direction of the base 19 may be formed.
　いずれの変形例を用いるとしても、上記実施形態に係るマスカラ塗布具４０と同様にこれらの複数の変形例に係るマスカラ塗布具を用いてまつ毛の根元への塗布する際に、眼球やまぶたへの接触の恐怖を低減でき、まつ毛の根元にマスカラを塗布することを躊躇しにくくすることができる。更に、まつ毛を根元から立ち上げてカールし、ボリューム感を持たせると共にダマやムラを防ぎ良好な仕上がりを実現できる。 Whichever modification is used, when applying to the roots of the eyelashes using the mascara applicator according to the plurality of modifications similar to the mascara applicator 40 according to the above-described embodiment, it is applied to the eyeball or eyelid. The fear of contact can be reduced, and it can be difficult to hesitate to apply mascara at the base of the eyelashes. In addition, the eyelashes are raised from the base and curled to give a sense of volume and to prevent lumps and unevenness and achieve a good finish.
　＜先端部の変形例＞
　図１４は、本発明の先端部の変形例を含む塗布体の例を示す。 <Modification of tip>
FIG. 14 shows an example of an application body including a modification of the tip of the present invention.
　本実施形態に係る塗布体は、先端部が二股状に枝分かれすることにより、２つの針状先端１５Ａ，１５Ｂを有している。 The application body according to the present embodiment has two needle- like tips 15A and 15B by branching the tip portion into a bifurcated shape.
　本実施形態の塗布体１０Ａを使用すると、例えば図６の（Ｆ）に示すまつ毛さばき時に、２つの先端部（針状先端１５Ａ，１５Ｂ）と溝を用いてさばくことができる。ただし、上述の実施形態に係る塗布体１０（図２参照）と比較して幅が太くなるため、用途とサイズに応じて、適宜構成を選択すると好ましい。 When the application body 10A of the present embodiment is used, for example, when the eyelashes shown in (F) of FIG. 6 are handled, the two tip portions (needle- like tips 15A and 15B) and a groove can be used. However, since the width is thicker than that of the coated body 10 according to the above-described embodiment (see FIG. 2), it is preferable to appropriately select the configuration according to the application and size.
　本実施形態に係るマスカラ塗布具では、幅が太いため、上記実施形態に係るマスカラ塗布具４０よりも、更にまつ毛をカールし、ボリューム感を持たせやすくなると共に、２つの先端部によりダマやムラをより防ぎやすく、良好な仕上がりを実現できる。 Since the mascara applicator according to the present embodiment is thick, the eyelashes are further curled and more voluminous than the mascara applicator 40 according to the above-described embodiment, and the two tip portions are free of lumps and unevenness. It is easier to prevent and can achieve a good finish.
　以上、本発明の好ましい実施形態について詳述したが、本発明は上記した特定の実施形態に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲に記載された本発明の要旨の範囲内において、種々の変形・変更が可能なものである。 The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims. It can be modified and changed.
　本出願は、２０１５年１２月２８日に日本国特許庁に出願された特願２０１５－２５７２８９号、及び２０１６年１２月２７日に日本国特許庁に出願された特願２０１６－２５３２８４号に基づく優先権を主張するものであり、特願２０１５－２５７２８９号及び特願２０１６－２５３２８４号の全内容を本出願に援用する。 This application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-257289 filed with the Japan Patent Office on December 28, 2015 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-253284 filed with the Japan Patent Office on December 27, 2016.
