Definitions

• the invention relates to a container attachment according to the preamble of claim 1.
• Such an attachment with hollow tines connected to a storage container for applying a liquid
• Hair treatment agent on head hair is known, for example, from US Pat. No. 5,311,887 A1 and is used, in particular for self-application, strands of hair or the entire head hair with the hair treatment agent - such as a hair dye - to be wetted as completely as possible, for which purpose the hollow tines with the emerging hair treatment agent repeatedly the head hair is brushed, but this can only be achieved with - usually protected - hands by further manually distributing the hair treatment agent on the strand of hair
• the object of the invention is therefore to provide a container attachment of the same type, which largely eliminates the need for further manual distribution of the hair treatment agent after application or which enables better wetting of the hair treatment agent on the hair on the head.
• the comb tines arranged between the hollow tines ensure a more uniform wetting and distribution of the Hair treatment agent reached on the scalp hair.
• the comb teeth make application quick and easy by detangling the dry hair.
• the comb function of the comb teeth ensures that the hair on the head does not slip from the hollow teeth.
• the comb teeth have approximately half the length of the hollow teeth, a relatively thick strand of hair can be guided between the hollow teeth.
• the slightly conical comb and hollow tines make it easier to remove the attachment from your hair.
• the outlet openings can optionally be arranged at the lower end of the tine or laterally.
• the elastic hollow tines have the advantage that they adapt to a head shape.
• Container attachment in a first embodiment 2 shows the attachment according to FIG. 1 ; 3 shows the attachment in a side view; 4 shows the top in a plan view;
• FIG. 5 shows a side view of a closure cap
• Cap in an enlarged view; 7 shows the closure cap in a perspective view; 8 is a top view of the closure cap;
• FIG. 9 shows a top view of a container attachment in a second exemplary embodiment
• FIG. 10 shows the container attachment according to FIG. 2, but with lateral outlet openings.
• FIG. 1 shows in a first exemplary embodiment a container attachment 1 for applying a liquid hair treatment agent 2 (FIG. 2) to head hair, which has a plurality of hollow tines 3 of essentially the same length on a tine base 4, which have an inner channel 5 which is at least in the region 6 of one Tine end 7 is provided with at least one outlet opening 8.
• Comb tines 9 are arranged between the hollow tines 3 and have a maximum length L of the hollow tines 3.
• the comb teeth 9 have approximately half a length L of the hollow teeth 3 and are conical like the hollow teeth 3.
• the outlet openings 8 are arranged at the lower tine end 7 of the hollow tines 3.
• the three hollow tines 3 and the two comb tines 9 are arranged in a row, the outlet openings 8 being aligned in a plane 11 of the row.
• the attachment 1 To connect the attachment 1 to a crushable storage container 10 shown in dashed lines, the attachment 1 is provided with an internal thread 12 and the container 10 with a corresponding external thread neck 13.
• the hair treatment agent 2 is applied by correspondingly pressing the container wall of the Container 10, wherein the tines 3 are directed essentially downwards to the hair on the head (FIG. 2).
• the at least hollow tines 3 are designed to be elastic, as a result of which they can adapt to a head shape.
• a closure cap 14 is shown in different views for closing the outlet openings 3. This function is shown in Fig. 6, the closure cap 14 snapping with at least the central hollow prong 3 and by manual pressing on the lower side areas 15 can be solved again.
• FIG. 9 A second embodiment of an attachment 1.1 is shown in FIG. 9, the hollow and comb teeth 3, 9 being arranged in a circle. As a result, the attachment 1.1 does not have to be oriented toward the head hair, which results in a handling advantage.
• FIG. 10 shows the attachment 1 according to FIG. 2, but with lateral tread openings 8, whereby a direct contact with the scalp is excluded.
