Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an eyelash curler, including an outer housing, a clamping mechanism, and a hair removing mechanism. The clamping mechanism is fixed to a first end of the outer housing, and the hair removing mechanism is disposed at a second end, opposite to the clamping mechanism, of the outer housing.
The eyelash curler of the present disclosure is provided with the clamping mechanism and the hair removing mechanism on two opposite ends of the outer housing, so that the eyelash curler may meet functions of curling eyelashes and removing body hair at the same time, thereby avoiding a problem that a single instrument only has a single function, and further improving applicability of the eyelash curler.
Some embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
Please refer to
The eyelash curler 100 is provided with the clamping mechanism 20 and the hair removing mechanism 30 on two opposite ends of the outer housing 10, so that the eyelash curler 100 may meet functions of curling eyelashes and removing the body hair at the same time, thereby avoiding a problem that a single instrument only has a single function, and further improving applicability of the eyelash curler 100.
Furthermore, the hair removing mechanism 30 has a first axis, and the outer housing 10 has a second axis. The hair removing mechanism 30 may rotate at the second end of the outer housing along an axis center A, so that the hair removing mechanism 30 may be rotated to a specific angle when users need to remove hair at different angles, which is convenient for the users to use.
Specifically, the axis center A is located on the second axis, so as to prevent the hair removing mechanism 30 from deviating from the outer housing 10 during rotating to cause interference between the hair removing mechanism 30 and the outer housing 10, thereby ensuring accuracy of positioning of the hair removing mechanism 30. Furthermore, after the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates with respect to the outer housing 10, an included angle between the first axis and the second axis ranges from 0° to 20°, so as to be applicable to different users. Preferably, after the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates with respect to the outer housing 10, the included angle between the first axis and the second axis is 10°. It should be noted that the foregoing angles are not limited thereto, as in another embodiment, the included angles may also be 0°, 2°, 4°, 6°, 8°, 12°, 14°, 16°, 18°, 20°, etc.
In order to ensure stability of the outer housing 10 when the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates with respect to the outer housing 10, a first surface 10a is disposed on an end wall, facing the hair removing mechanism 30, of the outer housing 10, and a second surface is 30a disposed on an end wall, facing the outer housing 10, of the hair removing mechanism 30. Preferably, the first surface 10a is attached to the second surface 30a, and when the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates with respect to the outer housing 10, the first surface 10a is always attached to the second surface 30a, thereby preventing generating gaps between the outer housing 10 and the hair removing mechanism 30 and further preventing problems like water intake to affect safety of electronic components in the outer housing 10.
Furthermore, in order to prevent the hair removing mechanism 30 from interfering with the outer housing 10 during rotating, the first surface 10a and the second surface 30a are arc surfaces, so that when the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates with respect to the outer housing 10, the first surface 10a and the second surface 30a run smoothly to cooperate with each other without interference problems caused by radians of the first surface 10a and the second surface 30a.
In order to enable the hair removing mechanism 30 to be perpendicular to the outer housing 10, in the embodiment, the hair removing mechanism 30 may rotate forward or reverse with respect to the outer housing by 90°, so that the hair removing mechanism 30 is vertically disposed on the outer housing 10. Specifically, the users may adjust rotation angles of the hair removing mechanism 30 with respect to the outer housing 10 as required. For example, when the users comb eyelashes of left eyes, the hair removing mechanism 30 may be rotated by 90° with respect to the outer housing 10, so as to conveniently comb the eyelashes of the left eyes; when the users comb eyelashes of right eyes, the hair removing mechanism 30 may be reversed by 90° with respect to the outer housing 10, so as to conveniently comb the eyelashes of the right eyes.
Furthermore, in order to ensure rotation accuracy of the hair removing mechanism 30, a fixing component 50 includes a positioning component 51. A positioning surface 511a is disposed on a bottom of each of positioning grooves 511 of positioning component 51, so that an included angle between any positioning surface 511a and an adjacent positioning surface 511a ranges from 5° to 15°.
It should be noted that each person has own habit in use of the eyelash curler. For example, holding the outer housing 10 of the eyelash curler 100 by left hands or right hands, merely holding the outer housing 10 of the eyelash curler 100 by fingers, or holding the outer housing 10 of the eyelash curler 100 through the fingers and abutting palms against an outer wall of the outer housing 10. Since there are multiple ways to hold the eyelash curler 100, when the rotation angle of the hair removing mechanism 30 with respect to the outer housing 10 is in a range from 5° to 15°, that is, the included angle between any positioning surface 511a and the adjacent positioning surface 511a is in the range from 5° to 15°, which is more suitable for the users to comb and curl relatively short eyelashes through the hair removing mechanism 30. In the embodiment, the users may determine the rotation angle of the hair removing mechanism 30 with respect to the outer housing 10 as required. Preferably, the rotation angle of the hair removing mechanism 30 with respect to the outer housing 10 is 10°.
Furthermore, the positioning grooves 511 include three positioning grooves 511, and the three positioning grooves 511 are disposed at equal intervals. In the embodiment, when the hair removing mechanism 30 is clamped in one of the three positioning grooves 511, the hair removing mechanism 30 and the outer housing 10 are on the same straight line.
In other embodiments, a quantity of the positioning grooves is greater than three.
Furthermore, in order to better ensure rotation precision of the hair removing mechanism 30, the fixing component 50 further includes a positioning core 52, the positioning core 52 is capable of rotating in the positioning component 51. In one embodiment, the positioning core 52 is made of a deformable material. Therefore, when the positioning core 52 is separated from one of the positioning grooves 511 and clamped in adjacent one of the positioning grooves 511, the positioning core 52 deforms, so that the hair removing mechanism 30 rotates.
In one embodiment, the positioning core 52 is made of a plastic material having micro deformation.
