TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a mascara brush and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a mascara brush and a method for manufacturing the same manufactured by combining filaments formed in various patterns with a body of the mascara brush.
BACKGROUND ART
Generally, mascara refers to a kind of cosmetic used by women, and refers to a cosmetic that shows off the appearance of the eye by applying various colors of liquids on eyelashes using a brush. Such mascara is configured by a container in which a mascara liquid is stored, a handle for opening and closing the container, a rod-type support protruding to the lower part of the handle, and a brush formed on the support, and has been used by applying the mascara liquid on the brush by coupling or separating the handle and the container.
A mascara brush corresponding to a structure consisting of the support and the brush has been manufactured according to various functions, such as volume (an effect of making eyelashes enriching), curl (an effect of rolling up ends of the eyelashes), long lash (an effect of making the length of eyelashes long), and clean (an effect of preventing eyelashes from being stuck) for the eyelashes according to a length and a shape of hair.
As such, the mascara brush needs to evenly apply a mascara liquid having viscosity on the eyelashes and needs to have a combing function by the brush so that the eyelashes are not stuck to each other.
The mascara brush serves to fix the eyelashes in various shapes using the mascara liquid, and has a disadvantage that a brushing effect of the mascara is reduced even if the position of the brush is regular. Further, even in the case of an integrated mascara brush, there was a problem that it is very difficult to make an irregular form of brush, and by assembling and manufacturing a plurality of brushes to make the irregular form of brush, there is a problem that manufacturing cost is expensive.
Further, a conventional mascara brush is formed of long bristles and irregularly arranged bristles, but in this case, since the brushing function of the brush is insufficient, the mascara liquid applied on the eyelashes is frequently aggregated at any part, and as a result, there was a problem that after applying the mascara, the aesthetic sense of eyelashes is rather inhibited.

FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a method for manufacturing a mascara brush according to the present invention. In FIG. 8, the method will be described by using the brush rod 11 of the first embodiment. As illustrated In FIG. 8, the method for manufacturing a mascara brush comprises the steps: (a) forming a certain pattern of filaments 151 by attaching the filaments 151 to an adhesive tape 14; (b) inserting the certain pattern of filaments 151 into the slot 12; (c) forming a brush 15 by injecting an adhesive into the slot 12 or vibration-fusing or thermal-fusing the slot when the certain pattern of filaments 151 are inserted into the slot 12; and (d) cutting and removing the portion attached with the adhesive tape 14 from the brush rod 11 formed with the brush 15. In step (a) illustrated in FIG. 8A, first, the filaments 151 are arranged to have a certain pattern to form the brush 15. Generally, the arrangement of the certain pattern of filaments is formed on a lower adhesive tape, and then an upper adhesive tape is attached on the top of the filaments when the arrangement is completed to fix the shape of the filaments 151. Next, in step (b) illustrated in FIG. 8B, the certain pattern of filaments 151 are inserted into the slot 11-3 of the brush rod 11. The certain pattern of filaments 151 inserted into the slot 11-3 are fixed into the slot 11-3. The interval of the slot 11-3 is formed to about 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm. Next, step (c) of FIG. 8C is a step of fixing the filaments 151 inserted into the slot 11-3. To fix the filaments 151, the slot portion is fused by injecting an adhesive into the slot 11-3 or using a vibration fusing machine 20 or thermal fusing machine 20. The vibration fusion includes ultrasonic fusion or high-frequency fusion. Accordingly, the filaments 151 are fixed to form the brush 15. In the case of the adhesive, there is no problem that the material is different, but when the vibration fusion or thermal fusion is performed, it is preferable that the brush rod 11 and the brush 15 are made of the same material. This is because different frequencies or heat are applied during vibration fusion or thermal fusion. In the embodiment, the brush rods 11, 11′, and 11″ of FIGS. 1 to 5 may be used. As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4, even when the slots 11-3a, 11-3b, 11-3a′, 11-3b′, 11-3a″, and 11-3b″ are formed in a multilayer, since the certain pattern of filaments 151 are inserted, the vibration fusion or thermal fusion is performed in the same manner. Step (d) of FIG. 8D illustrates a step of removing the adhesive tape 14 portion from the brush rod 11. When the adhesive tape 14 portion is removed, generally, one side is formed in a shape tapered toward an end when the filaments are prepared, but the other side is cut by a cutter so that the end may not be tapered. However, since the both ends of the brush have different shapes, the tapered portion of the original end may be used to apply the mascara finely and the portion with the cutting surface may be used to apply a large amount of mascara, and thus there are various advantages and there is an advantage of forming a different shape of brush. Next, step (e) illustrated in FIG. 8E may further include a step of cutting the end of the brush in a certain form to form a certain shape of cutting line 15-1 on the end of the brush 15 when the brush 15 is fixed and adhered to the brush rod 11. The cutting line 15-1 may be variously formed in the form illustrated in FIG. 11. Further, a curling may be formed without cutting the end. In addition, curled filaments may be used, and such a use may be only a simple design change in the art to which the present invention pertains.
FIG. 9 illustrates a second embodiment of a manufacturing method. In the second embodiment, the manufacturing method comprises the steps of: (a) forming a certain pattern of filaments 151′ by tying filaments 151′ with a strap 14′; (b) inserting the certain pattern of filaments 151′ to the slot 11-3; (c) forming a brush 15 by injecting an adhesive into the slot 11-3 into which the certain pattern of filaments 151′ is inserted or vibration-fusing or thermal-fusing the slot; and (d) cutting and removing the tied strap portion from the brush rod 11 formed with the brush 15. As illustrated in FIG. 9A, first, the certain pattern of filaments 151′ are formed by tying knots on the strap 14′ to have the certain pattern of filaments 151′. The knots formed on the strap may be formed by knitting the filaments, binding the filaments or attaching the filaments to the strap 14′. Next, FIG. 9B illustrates a step (b) of inserting the filaments 151′ tied with the certain pattern of knots on the brush rod 11 into the slot 11-3. The brush rod used in step (b) may use the brush rod of FIGS. 1 to 5. As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4, even when the slots 11-3a, 11-3b, 11-3a′, and 11-3b′ are formed in a multilayer, since the filaments 151′ are inserted into the slot, the same step is applied. In FIG. 9C, when the filaments 151′ are inserted into the slot 11-3, step (c) of fixing the filaments 151 to the brush rod 11 is performed. To this end, the filaments 151′ are fixed by applying the adhesive on the slot 11-3 or fusing the slot 11-3 by the vibration fusion machine 20 or thermal fusion machine 20. The vibration fusion includes ultrasonic fusion or high-frequency fusion. The filaments 151′ inserted into the slot 11-3 are fixed to form the brush 15. Next, FIG. 9D illustrates step (d) of cutting the strap 14′ portion fixing the filaments 151′ when the filaments 151′ are inserted into the brush rod 11. Next, FIG. 9E illustrates step (e) of further including a step of cutting the end of the brush in a certain form to form a certain shape of cutting line 15-1 on the end of the brush 15 when the brush 15 is fixed and adhered to the brush rod 11. The cutting line 15-1 may be variously formed in the form illustrated in FIG. 11. Further, a curling may be formed without cutting the end. Further, the mascara brush may be manufactured by using the curled filaments according to the process.
