Eyelash curler and eyelash curler accessories

The present invention relates to an eyelash curler, and more particularly to an attachment for an eyelash curler for curling eyelashes.

In the past, a variety of eyelash curlers have been known for curling eyelashes. However, when the eyelash curler is used to curl the eyelashes, there are cases where the eyelashes are connected to each other to be curled or the eyelashes are erected. In order to solve such a problem, an eyelash curler has been disclosed which has an eyelash arranging means for causing the eyelashes to be combed and combed between the eyelashes when the eyelashes are caught (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). However, the eyelash curler does not start from the root of the eyelashes, so there is a problem that the effect of preventing the eyelashes from being connected to each other is insufficient.

The present invention is in view of the problems of the prior art. Completion, therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide an eyelash clip and eyelash clip attachment that allows the eyelashes to be opened from the root portion and curled perfectly.

The first aspect of the present invention provides an attachment for an eyelash clip that allows the eyelashes to be opened from the root portion and perfectly curled. The eyelash curler attachment is attached to an eyelash curler having a movable member that can be moved up and down. The eyelash clip attachment includes a fitting portion that can be attached to the movable member, a bridge portion that extends from the fitting portion, and a plurality of tooth portions that extend upward from the bridge portion and are disposed at regular intervals in the horizontal direction.

The second aspect of the present invention provides an eyelash curler that allows the eyelashes to be opened from the root portion and perfectly curled. The eyelash curler includes: a frame portion that extends in a vertical direction, a movable member that can move up and down along a pair of frame portions, a fixing member that is fixed above the movable member, and an elasticity that is placed on the movable member. member. The movable member is connected between the pair of frame portions, and the fixed member is connected between the pair of frame portions. The elastic member has a contact area that can contact the fixed member. Further, the eyelash curler includes an operation portion that moves the movable member to the upper side and contacts the contact portion of the elastic member with the fixing member, and a comb member that can be attached to the movable member. The comb member has a bridge portion that can be fitted to the mounting portion of the movable member, a contact portion extending from the fitting portion to the elastic member, and a bridge portion extending from the vicinity of the contact portion of the elastic member and extending in the horizontal direction. A plurality of teeth are arranged at regular intervals.

In this way, since the plurality of teeth are extended upward from the bridge portion, the teeth are forcibly inserted between the roots of the eyelashes during use, so Make the eyelashes perfectly separate from the roots. Therefore, the eyelashes are not connected to each other, and the eyelashes can be perfectly curled from the root. Further, since the tooth portions are arranged at a constant interval in the horizontal direction, the eyelashes can be curled into a perfect fan shape at a constant interval.

Here, it is preferable that the tooth portions of the comb member each have a contact surface that substantially contacts the front surface of the fixing member when the contact portion of the elastic member comes into contact with the fixing member. In this case, the tooth portion of the comb member is disposed in the vicinity of the fixing member to such an extent that the contact surface substantially contacts the fixing member, so when the eyelash is sandwiched between the fixing member and the elastic member, the position of the tooth portion is Extremely close to the root of the eyelashes. Therefore, the above effect of opening the eyelashes from the root portion is more prominently exerted.

Further, it is preferable that the tooth portions of the comb member each have an upper end portion bent toward the front. By adopting such a shape that the upper end portion of the tooth portion is curved forward, the risk of the tip end portion of the tooth portion entering the user's eyes can be avoided when the eyelash curler is used. Further, when the movable member is moved upward, the fixing member is guided by the curved surface of the upper end portion of the tooth portion, so that the fixing member does not get caught at the tip end portion of the tooth portion.

Furthermore, the comb member may be attached to the outside of the movable member. In this case, since the comb member can be seen from the outside, the user can be visually presented with the effect of perfectly separating the eyelashes.

The tooth extending from the tooth portion to the lower side can be formed by cutting a part of the bridge portion of the comb member along the adjacent tooth portion so as to extend the slit formed by the adjacent tooth portion downward. unit. Moreover, the extension of the slit can be formed downward at the fitting portion of the comb member. Extending the ditch. Since the height of the root portion of the tooth portion or the thinness of the comb member can be partially adjusted by forming the tooth extension portion or the groove only in one portion of the comb member, the strength and rigidity of the comb member can be maintained, and It is easy to see between the elastic member and the fixing member (the root of the eyelashes) at the time of use.

The fitting portion of the comb member is formed with a through hole penetrating from the front surface of the fitting portion to the rear surface, and the movable member may be provided with a claw portion that is insertable into the through hole and that can lock the fitting portion of the comb member. In this manner, by inserting the claw portion of the movable member into the through hole of the fitting portion of the comb member to lock the fitting portion, the comb member can be firmly and stably fixed to the movable member. Therefore, when the eyelash curler is used, there is no risk that the comb member shakes and the tooth portion or the like enters the user's eyes.

According to the present invention, since a plurality of teeth are extended upward from the bridge portion, in use, the teeth are forcibly inserted between the roots of the eyelashes, thereby allowing the eyelashes to be perfectly separated from the root. Therefore, the eyelashes are not connected to each other, and the eyelashes can be perfectly curled from the root. Further, since the tooth portions are arranged at a constant interval in the horizontal direction, the eyelashes can be curled into a perfect fan shape at a constant interval.

The fixing member 50 connects the two frame portions 12, 12 to each other, and the lower end 50A has a function of pressing the eyelashes between the elastic members 70 to curl them.

Similarly to the fixing member 50, the movable member 60 connects the two frame portions 12 and 12 to each other. However, the movable member 60 is configured to be slidable up and down along the frame portions 12 and 12. That is, the both ends of the movable member 60 are formed with insertion holes 61, 61 through which the frame portions 12, 12 are respectively inserted. Thereby, the movable member 60 can slide up and down along the frame portions 12, 12.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, a V-shaped connecting member 41 is attached to the lower surface of the movable member 60, and the connecting member 41 is inserted through the through hole 22A formed in the upper end portion 22 of the second arm member 20. Therefore, when the second arm member 20 is moved about the rotation shaft 40, the upper end portion 22 of the second arm member 20 moves up and down, and the movable member 60 is pushed up or down. Figs. 1 and 2 show a state in which the movable member 60 is moved downward (open state). The state in which the movable member 60 is moved upward (closed state) is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.

Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line V-V of the crimping portion 30 of the eyelash curler 1 of Fig. 3. As shown in Fig. 5, in the state in which the movable member 60 is moved upward (closed state), the upper end portion 70A of the elastic member 70 placed on the movable member 60 comes into contact with the lower end 50A of the fixing member 50. That is, the elastic member 70 has a contact region 70A that can contact the lower end 50A of the fixing member 50 by moving the movable member 60 upward by operating the second arm member 20. As described above, in the present embodiment, the second arm member 20 is rotated. The shaft 40 and the connecting member 41 constitute an operation portion that moves the movable member 60 upward and brings the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70 into contact with the fixing member 50. When the eyelash curler 1 is used, the eyelashes are sandwiched between the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70 and the fixing member 50 to be curled.

Fig. 6 is a front view of the comb member 80, and Fig. 7 is a plan view. The comb member 80 is formed of, for example, a resin, and has a substantially arc shape in a plan view of Fig. 7. By the comb member 80, a part of the front surface and the bottom surface of the movable member 60 is covered. As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the comb member 80 includes a fitting portion 81 extending in a slightly vertical direction, a bridge portion 82 extending obliquely upward from the upper end of the fitting portion 81, and an upper end of the bridge portion 82. A plurality of teeth 83 (83-1, 83-2) extending upward. The fitting portion 81 is attached to the front surface of the movable member 60. The plurality of teeth 83 are disposed at a predetermined interval (for example, about 0.5 mm to about 1.0 mm) in the horizontal direction. As shown in Fig. 5, the bridge portion 82 extends to the vicinity of the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70, and the upper end of the bridge portion 82 is located in the vicinity of the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70. Such a tooth portion 83 is provided, for example, from about 15 to about 35.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the plurality of tooth portions 83 extend upward from the bridge portion 82 in the vicinity of the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70. Therefore, when used, the tooth portions 83 are forcibly inserted into the elastic member 70. Between the contact area 70A and the root of the eyelash between the fixing members 50, the eyelashes can be perfectly separated from the root. Therefore, the eyelashes are not connected to each other and the eyelashes can be perfectly curled from the root. Further, the plurality of tooth portions 83 extending in parallel with each other are arranged at a predetermined interval in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the tooth portion 83 easily enters between the eyelashes and the eyelashes, and the eyelashes can be curled into a perfect fan shape. Further, since the comb member 80 having such a tooth portion 83 is attached to the outside of the movable member 60, the comb member 80 can be seen from the outside, and the user can visually exhibit the effect of perfectly separating the eyelashes.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a plurality of concave portions 84 (three concave portions 84 in the illustrated example) are formed in the front surface 81A of the fitting portion 81 of the comb member 80 at intervals in the horizontal direction. Moreover, the through hole 85 which penetrates the comb-shaped member 80 up to the back surface 81B of the mounting part 81 is formed in the upper side area of each recessed part 84. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5, the movable member 60 is provided with the claw portion 62 corresponding to the concave portion 84 of the comb member 80 and the through hole 85. The claw portion 62 can be bent by using a tool, and Fig. 5 shows a state in which the claw portion 62 is bent downward.

When the comb member 80 is attached to the movable member 60, the claw portion 62 is first inserted into the through hole 85 of the comb member 80 (in the state indicated by a broken line 62A in Fig. 5), and then bent downward to allow the claw portion 62 to be closed. It enters the recess 84. Thereby, the claw portion 62 of the movable member 60 is locked to the wall surface of the concave portion 84, and the comb member 80 is fixed to the movable member 60.

In this manner, the claw portion 62 of the movable member 60 is inserted into the through hole 85 of the fitting portion 81 of the comb member 80 and locked to the fitting portion 81, so that the comb member 80 can be firmly and stably fixed to the movable member 60. Therefore, the eyelash curler 1 does not have a risk that, for example, the comb member 80 is shaken and the tooth portion 83 enters the user's eyes. Further, the number and position of the concave portion 84, the through hole 85, and the claw portion 62 are not limited to those of the drawings. Moreover, if the comb member 80 can be attached to the movable member 60 without using the claw portion 62 and the through hole 85, Preferably, the comb member 80 is attached to the movable member 60 by these methods. Further, the comb member 80 can be attached to the movable member 60 in a detachable manner.

As shown in Fig. 5, each of the tooth portions 83 has a contact surface 83A that substantially contacts the front surface 50B of the fixing member 50 when the contact portion 70A of the elastic member 70 is brought into contact with the fixing member 50 (for example, the contact surface 83A and There is no gap between the front surface 50B of the fixing member 50 or even a gap of 0.3 mm or less. In this manner, the tooth portion 83 of the comb member 80 is disposed in the vicinity of the fixing member 50 such that the contact surface 83A substantially contacts the fixing member 50. Therefore, when the eyelash is sandwiched between the fixing member 50 and the elastic member 70, the tooth shape is formed. The position of the portion 83 will be extremely close to the root of the eyelashes. Therefore, the above effect of opening the eyelashes from the root portion is more prominently exerted.

Further, as shown in Fig. 5, the upper end portion 83B of each of the tooth portions 83 is formed to be curved forward from the front surface 50B of the fixing member 50. When the eyelash clip 1 is used in a shape in which the upper end portion 83B of the tooth portion 83 is curved forward, the risk of the leading end portion of the tooth portion 83 entering the eyes of the user disappears. Further, when the movable member 60 is moved upward, the fixing member 50 is guided by the curved surface of the upper end portion 83B of the tooth portion 83, so that the fixing member 50 does not get caught at the tip end portion of the tooth portion 83. For example, the upper end portion 83B of the tooth portion 83 may be bent forward at an angle of about 15 degrees to about 20 degrees with respect to the contact surface 83A. Further, the length of the upper end portion 83B can be, for example, about 0.5 mm to about 1.5 mm.

Figure 8 is a VIII-VIII of the comb member 80 of Figure 6. The line cross-sectional view shows a portion of the tooth portion 83 that is closer to the concave portion 84. In the vicinity of the toothed portion 83-1 (first toothed portion). Fig. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along line IX-IX of the comb member 80 of Fig. 6, showing a tooth portion 83-2 (second tooth portion) formed at a position farther from the concave portion 84 in the tooth portion 83. Nearby. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, the bridge portion 82 extends from the upper end of the fitting portion 81 to the root of the first tooth portion 83-1 in order to secure the strength and rigidity of the fitting portion 81 in the portion closer to the recess portion 84. Part of the whole.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 9, the root portion of the second tooth portion 83-2 formed at a position farther from the concave portion 84 is formed so as to be narrowed by the adjacent tooth portion 83. One of the bridge portions 82 is cut along the second tooth portion 83-2 so that the slit S (see Fig. 6) is extended downward. Thereby, the tooth extension portion 86 continuing from the second tooth portion 83-2 to the lower side is formed. In this portion, the second tooth portion 83-2 and the tooth extension portion 86 are integrally formed as the first tooth. The tooth portion 83-1 has a long tooth portion. In this manner, the bridge portion 82 is cut off at both sides of the tooth extension portion 86. Therefore, the opposite side of the comb member 80 can be observed in the portion where the second tooth portion 83-2 is formed (the reverse side of the paper surface of Fig. 6 is The left side of Fig. 9 is up to a position lower than the portion formed by the first tooth portion 83-1. For example, the length of the second tooth portion 83-2 may be about 3 mm to 5 mm.

Further, in the front surface 81A of the mounting portion 81, a groove 87 extending downward on the extension line of the slit S is formed, and a portion formed by the second tooth portion 83-2 is formed larger than the first tooth portion 83-1. In part, the thickness of the comb member 80 is partially thinned (refer to Fig. 7).

Here, when using the eyelash curler 1, it is better for the user to see Between the elastic member 70 and the fixing member 50, it can be confirmed that the eyelashes are correct Between the elastic member 70 and the fixing member 50, if the thickness of the comb member 80 is thick or the height of the root portion of the tooth portion 83 of the comb member 80 is high, the comb member 80 blocks the visual field. Therefore, it is preferable that the thickness of the comb-like member 80 is as thin as possible, and the height of the root portion of the tooth portion 83 is as low as possible (even if the length of the tooth portion 83 is long), but on the other hand, If the thickness of the comb member 80 is too thin and the height of the root portion of the tooth portion 83 is too low, the strength and rigidity of the comb member 80 may be insufficient, and the assembly and fixing of the movable member 60 of the comb member 80 may be changed. Difficulties, such as breaking down immediately.

From this point of view, in the present embodiment, the bridge portion 82 is not cut out in the portion where the first tooth portion 83-1 is formed, and the groove such as the groove 87 is not formed in the fitting portion 81 to improve the comb. In the strength and rigidity of the member 80, at the same time as the portion in which the second tooth portion 83-2 is formed, the bridge portion 82 is cut off and the tooth extension portion 86 is formed, and the groove 87 is formed in the fitting portion 81, and is changed in use. It is easy to see the structure between the elastic member 70 and the fixing member 50 (the root of the eyelashes). That is, since the height or thinness of the comb member 80 can be partially adjusted by forming the tooth extension portion 86 and the groove 87 only in one portion of the comb member 80, the strength and rigidity of the comb member 80 can be maintained and improved. Easy to use when used. Further, as described above, if the comb member 80 can be attached to the movable member 60 without using the claw portion 62 and the through hole 85, the through hole 85 does not need to be formed in the fitting portion 81, so that all the tooth portions 83 can be made. It is formed to be as long as the second tooth portion 83-2. In this case, it is easier to observe the eyelashes when using the eyelash curler 1.

In the above embodiment, the case where the comb member 80 is attached to the front surface of the movable member 60 will be described, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The comb member 80 is fitted to the rear or inside of the movable member 60.

The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various embodiments can be implemented without departing from the scope of the technical idea.
