Description

  The present invention relates to an eyelash curler for curling eyelashes.

  The eyelash curler is conventionally known as a beauty device for curling eyelashes. The eyelash curler is formed by applying a shaping pressure to the shaping portion that is opened and closed by a hook-like mechanism or the like to bend the eyelashes. The facial expression of the eye can be shown differently by changing the curled state of the eyelashes, and the eyelashes can be characterized by partially strengthening the curled state of the eyelashes in the width direction of the eyelashes. it can.

  As an eyelash curler that partially changes the state of curling of the eyelashes, an abutment part in which either one or both of the shaping parts that apply shaping pressure partially protrude toward the other side and a non-isolated There is known an eyelash curler in which a contact portion is formed and the contact portion and the non-contact portion are connected by a smooth bent portion (see Patent Document 1). According to this eyelash curler, the eyelashes are sandwiched over the entire width thereof, and a shaping pressure is applied to the eyelashes at the abutting portion that partially contacts, and the shaping pressure is not applied to the non-contacting portion. Can change the state. In addition, by connecting the abutment part and the non-abutment part with a smooth bent part, the curl of the eyelash can be changed so that it can be continuously shifted from the strongly curled part to the weakly curled part. While this state is partially strengthened in the width direction of the eyelashes, the curl of the eyelashes becomes a natural state as a whole. By changing the position of the abutting part and the non-abutting part of the shaping part, the part where the curl is strongly attached can be changed in the width direction of the eyelashes, and the facial expression can be characterized.

In addition, a shaping plate that attaches a moving plate that can move in the width direction to the shaping part, and cooperates with the other shaping part at the lower part of the moving plate to clamp a part of the eyelashes to apply shaping pressure. In addition, an eyelash curler that can hold the moving plate in a stopped state at a desired position has also been developed (see Patent Document 2). According to the eyelash curler, the eyelash can be partially curled and the position thereof can be arbitrarily changed.

  The upper shaped part (P) and the lower shaped part (Q) have a length substantially equal to the entire width of the eyelashes, are curved in an arc shape, and are shaped along the curvature of the hairline at the hairline. . Further, when the tilting part (1) is tilted left and right with respect to the holding part (4), the distance that the tilting part (1) moves to the left and right along the holding part (4) is from the left support part (53L). It is the difference between the distance from the right support part (53R) and the distance from the left latching part (33L) to the right latching part (33R), the upper shaped part (P) or the lower shaped part (Q) It is a slight distance compared to the length of. For this reason, the tilting portion (1) has a length substantially equal to the entire width of the eyelashes, and the entire width of the eyelashes can be sandwiched between the tilting portion (1) and the upper shaping portion (P), and the eyelashes The curl can be applied over the entire width, and no abnormal curl is applied partially.

  Since the one end portion of the tilting portion (1) is inclined so as to approach the upper shaping portion (P) from the other end portion, and the tilting portion (1) is maintained in an inclined state, the upper shaping portion ( From the end close to P) to the other end, the distance from the upper shaped part (P) changes continuously. In this state, when the eyelash is pinched between the upper shaping part (P) and the lower shaping part (Q) and shaping pressure is applied, the shaping pressure is applied to the end close to the upper shaping part (P). Strongly applied, and the shaping pressure continuously changes to the other end. For this reason, the state of curling of the eyelashes can be changed in the width direction of the eyelashes so as to change continuously from the strongly curled portion to the weakly curled portion.

  The tilting part (1) is held so as to be tiltable with respect to the holding part (4), so that one end portion of the tilting part (1) is closer to the upper shaping part (P) than the other end part. Tilt. When the tilting portion (1) is tilted in the opposite direction, the other end portion is tilted so as to approach the upper shaping portion (P), and the tilted state is maintained. For this reason, the part which gives a shaping pressure strongly to eyelashes can be changed right and left. Therefore, it is possible to curl the left and right eyelashes with a single eyelash curler (J), and it is not necessary to replace the tilting part (1). it can.

  The left locking portion (33L) and the right locking portion (33R) formed on the lower surface of the tilting portion main body (3) are formed in a left-right symmetrical shape at a left-right symmetrical position with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction. The left guide part (35L) and the right guide part (35R) are formed in a symmetrical shape at a symmetrical position with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction. Further, the left support part (53L) and the right support part (53R) formed on the upper surface of the receiving member (5) are formed in a symmetrical shape at a symmetrical position with respect to the central part in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, the inclination of the tilting part (1) with respect to the holding part (4) is the same on the left and right, and the left end part of the tilting part (1) is close to the upper shaping part (P) and the right end part is the upper shaping part. The state approaching (P) is a symmetric state. When the user changes the tilt of the tilting portion (1) left and right, it automatically becomes a symmetric state. Therefore, it is possible to give a symmetrical curl to the left and right eyelashes, and it is not necessary for the user to confirm the symmetrical state, so that the eyelashes can be quickly given.

The left locking part (33L) and the right locking part (33R) formed on the lower surface of the tilting part main body (3) are concave shapes recessed from the contact surface (32), and are formed on the upper surface of the receiving member (5). The left support part (53L) and the right support part (53R) to be formed are convex shapes raised from the support surface (51). The left locking part (33L) and the left support part (53L) are locked by simply tilting the tilting part (1) left or right, or the right locking part (33R) and the right support part (53R) Is in a locked state, and the tilted portion (1) is kept tilted with respect to the holding portion (4).
In addition, the eyelash curler (J) in a state where the left locking portion (33L) and the left support portion (53L) are locked, or in a state where the right locking portion (33R) and the right support portion (53R) are locked When the pressing force is applied from above the tilting portion (1), the locked state is not released. Therefore, the state in which the tilting portion (1) is tilted with respect to the holding portion (4) is not inadvertently released while curling the eyelashes.
When the inclination of the tilting part (1) is changed left and right, the locking part and the support part are removed from the locked state by moving the tilting part (1) in the direction to be tilted, and the tilting part (1) However, the inclined state with respect to the holding portion (4) is easily released.

  The shape of the left locking part (33L) and the right locking part (33R) is substantially V-shaped, the shape of the left support part (53L) and right support part (53R) is also substantially V-shaped, and the left support part (53L) and the distal end portion of the right support portion (53R) are formed at the same or smaller angle than the distal end angles of the left engaging portion (33L) and the right engaging portion (33R). For this reason, even if a pressing force acts on the lower shaped part (Q) from the upper shaped part (P) from above, the locking top part (34) and the support top part (54) come into contact with each other to ensure The locked state is maintained and is not inadvertently released, and the locking top portion (34) is not displaced from side to side with respect to the support top portion (54). Therefore, during the curling of the eyelashes, the tilting portion (1) stably keeps the tilted state with respect to the holding portion (4), and the tilting portion (1) is attached to the holding portion (4). It does not shift from side to side.

  When the operation part (7) provided on the lower shaping part (Q) is operated to the left or right, the tilting part (1) connected to the operation part (7) is left or left with respect to the holding part (4). Tilt to the right. The left end part or the right end part is the upper shaped part by the engagement between the left engagement part (33L) and the left support part (53L) or the engagement between the right engagement part (33R) and the right support part (53R). The state close to (P) is maintained. Therefore, by operating the operation part (7) left and right, not only can the position where the shaping pressure can be strongly applied be changed, but also when the curls are symmetrically applied to the left and right eyelashes, the operation part (7 ) Can be used for the left and right eyelashes by simply operating.

  By forming the left guide part (35L) with rounded corners at the left end part of the lower part of the tilt part main body (3) and forming the right guide part (35R) at the right end part, the tilt part (1) When the left guide part (35L) comes into contact with the left support part (53L) by the action of the leftward force, the left guide part (35L) and the left support part (53L) follow the slope of the left support part (53L). An action of pushing the left end of the tilting part (1) upward is produced. By this action, the left guide part (35L) can easily get over the support top part (54) of the left support part (53L), and the left locking part (33L) is locked to the left support part (53L) and tilted. The left end portion of the part (1) can be replaced with a light operating force in a state of approaching the upper shaping part (P). The same applies to the action of the leftward force on the tilting part (1), and the right end part of the tilting part (1) can be changed with a light operating force to approach the upper shaping part (P).

  The finger hook part (71) formed on the left and right parts of the operation part (7) is formed with a slope so as to make an angle of about 45 degrees with respect to the center line of the operation part (7), and is a curved surface that is gentle to fingers during operation. Therefore, when the finger hanging portion (71) is operated left or right with a finger, a left or right force and an upward force are simultaneously applied to the operation portion (7). The left or right force and the upward force also act on the tilting portion (1) connected to the operation portion (7), and the tilting portion (1) moves in the upper left direction or the upper right direction. Therefore, the tilting part (1) can be inclined with respect to the holding part (4) simply by operating the operating part (7) in the left or right direction.

  Next, Example 2 will be described. In the second embodiment, the shape of the support surface (51) of the receiving member (5) is different from the first embodiment. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the support surface (51) includes a left support surface (55L) and a right support surface (55R). The left support surface (55L) and the right support surface (55R) are respectively inclined at a central portion in the longitudinal direction of the receiving member (5) and lowered toward both ends. The left support surface (55L) and the right support surface (55R) are inclined so as to be in surface contact with the contact surface (32) of the tilt portion (1) when the tilt portion (1) is tilted. That is, when the left end portion of the tilting portion (1) is brought close to the upper shaping portion (P), the right side of the center portion of the contact surface (32) of the tilting portion (1) is the receiving member (5 ) And the right support surface (55R). A part of the right guide part (35R) may also contact. If the tilting part (1) is tilted in the opposite direction and the right end part of the tilting part (1) is brought close to the upper shaped part (P), the center of the contact surface (32) of the tilting part (1) The left side of the portion is in surface contact with the left support surface (55L) of the receiving member (5). A part of the left guide part (35L) may also come into contact.

  In the second embodiment, in addition to the effects of the first embodiment, when the tilting portion (1) is tilted, the tilting portion (1) is in surface contact with the left support surface (55L) or the right support surface (55R), Since the tilted portion (1) is kept in a more stable state because it is supported by the surface, one end portion of the tilted portion (1) is not affected by the pressing force from the upper shaped portion (P) from above. This has the effect of maintaining the state of approaching the upper shaping part (P) more stably.

  Next, Example 3 will be described. The third embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the tilting portion (1) can maintain a neutral state in which the tilting portion (1) is not inclined with respect to the holding portion (4). Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 17, a left neutral support portion (56L) and a right neutral support portion (56R) are formed on the upper surface of the receiving member (5) at symmetrical positions with respect to the center portion. The left neutral support part (56L) and the right neutral support part (56R) are a left guide part (35L) formed at the left end part of the tilting part main body (3) and a right guide part formed at the right end part, respectively. (35R), and supports the tilting part main body (3) in a neutral manner. The left neutral support portion (56L) is formed on the right portion of the left support portion (53L) in FIG. 17, and the right neutral support portion (56R) is formed on the left portion of the right support portion (53R) in FIG. The

  The shapes of the left neutral support portion (56L) and the right neutral support portion (56R) are formed symmetrically with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the receiving member (5), and are formed from the support surface (51). It is raised and the upper surface is formed flat. The interval between the left neutral support portion (56L) and the right neutral support portion (56R) is such that the left neutral support portion (56L) is in contact with the left guide portion (35L) of the tilting portion main body (3). At the same time, the right guide part (35R) of the tilting part main body (3) abuts against the right neutral support part (56R) at the same time. Further, a part of the left end of the left guide part (35L) and a part of the right end of the right guide part (35R) are formed in contact with the left support part (53L) and the right support part (53R), respectively.

  In the third embodiment, in addition to the effects of the first embodiment, a left guide portion (35L) and a right guide portion (35R) formed on the tilting portion main body (3) are respectively formed on the receiving member (5). The left neutral support part (56L) and the right neutral support part (56R) are in contact with each other, and the tilting part main body (3) is neutrally supported, so that the tilting part (1) is neutral with respect to the holding part (4). Can keep the state. In addition, since the part of the left end of the left guide part (35L) and the part of the right end of the right guide part (35R) are in contact with the left support part (53L) and the right support part (53R), respectively, the tilt part (1) Does not shift from side to side with respect to the holding portion (4).

  In the neutral state, a uniform shaping pressure can be applied in the width direction of the eyelashes by the upper shaping part (P) and the lower shaping part (Q). Therefore, by operating the tilting part (1) and tilting it, the curled state of the eyelashes is changed in the width direction of the eyelashes, and the curled portion is continuously moved from the strongly curled portion to the weakened curled portion. In addition to being able to change, by setting the tilting portion (1) to the neutral state, the curled state of the eyelashes is not changed in the width direction of the eyelashes, and the curling can be imparted uniformly.

  In addition, an Example is not limited above, For example, you may change as follows.

  The mechanism for contacting and separating the upper shaping portion (P) and the lower shaping portion (Q) is not limited to the hook-like mechanism (M) similar to the conventionally known eyelash curler, and the upper shaping portion (P) Any mechanism that can apply the shaping pressure to the eyelashes by bringing the lower shaping portion (Q) into contact and separation may be used. For example, a mechanism for compressing the upper and lower sides of the U-shaped arm, such as tweezers and tweezers, and contacting and separating the tip of the arm can be used.

  In the state where the tilting part (1) is inclined with respect to the holding part (4), the left guide part (35L) or the right guide part (35R) does not necessarily need to contact the support surface (51). If the tilting portion (1) is tilted with respect to the holding portion (4) and the tilted state is maintained, the effects of the present invention can be exhibited. Accordingly, the left guide part (35L) or the right guide part (35R) may be in contact with a part of the left support part (53L) or the right support part (53R), respectively, and the contact surface (32). The tilting portion (1) may be maintained in the tilted state in a state of being in contact with the support surface (51).

  The shape of the upper surface of the tilting part main body (3) is not limited to a flat surface. For example, as shown in FIG. 16, the central part of the tilting part main body (3) protrudes high, and is formed as a curved surface so as to decrease toward both ends. May be. In this case, since the end of the tilted tilting part (1) is substantially parallel to the upper shaping part (P), a strong shaping pressure is applied to the eyelashes in a certain range from the outermost part as well as the outermost part. Moreover, it can also prevent that strong shaping pressure concentrates only on the extreme end.

  The shapes of the left locking portion (33L) and the right locking portion (33R) are not limited to the depressed shape, and may be a convex shape raised from the contact surface (32) as shown in FIG. .

  The support shaft (36) protruding from the tilting part main body (3) may be provided not only on the lower surface of the tilting part main body (3) but also on the outer surface of the tilting part main body (3). In this case, the holding hole (61) through which the support shaft (36) passes is formed on the outer surface of the holding portion main body (6). In addition, as shown in FIG. 19, the support shaft (36) may be formed on the operating portion (7) without being provided on the tilting portion main body (3).

  Instead of separately forming the receiving member (5) and the holding portion main body (6), the holding portion (4) may be integrally formed using a synthetic resin material or the like.
