Abstract

Provided is a make-up brush including a coating section for applying liquid cosmetic on a predetermined surface, the coating section having a plurality of bristles which forms a bundle, while being spaced at a predetermined distance from each other; a heat-bonded portion formed by melting one ends of the bristles such that the ends are integrally connected to each other; a housing section having such a cross-sectional shape that the end of the coating section having the heat-bonded portion is inserted and housed; a fixing section for fixing the end of the coating section, inserted into the housing section, to the housing section such that the density of the bristles is uniform; and a rod section connected to the housing section and having such a length that a user can hold the rod section by hand.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A make-up brush comprising:
 a coating section for applying liquid cosmetic on a predetermined surface, the coating section having a plurality of bristles which forms a bundle, while being spaced at a predetermined distance from each other;   a heat-bonded portion formed by melting one ends of the bristles such that the ends are integrally connected to each other;   a housing section having such a cross-sectional shape that the end of the coating section having the heat-bonded portion is inserted and housed;   a fixing section for fixing the end of the coating section, inserted into the housing section, to the housing section such that the density of the bristles is uniform; and   a rod section connected to the housing section and having such a length that a user can hold the rod section by hand.   
   
   
       2 . The make-up brush according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the coating section has a cross-sectional shape with an outer circumference.   
   
   
       3 . The make-up brush according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the coating section has a cross-sectional shape with outer and inner circumferences.   
   
   
       4 . The make-up brush according to  claim 2  or  3 ,
 wherein the coating section has a cross-sectional shape where a diagram with a specific shape is divided into a plurality of portions.   
   
   
       5 . The make-up brush according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the fixing section is an inward protrusion formed by pressing a portion of the housing section such that the portion is bent toward the coating section.   
   
   
       6 . The make-up brush according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the fixing section is a staple which passes through the housing section and the coating section.   
   
   
       7 . The make-up brush according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the fixing section is a socket which closely covers the periphery of the end of the coating section having the heat-bonded portion and has such a predetermined thickness as to be closely inserted onto the inner surface of the housing section.   
   
   
       8 . The make-up brush according to  claim 7 ,
 wherein the socket having a plurality of edges covers the coating section while being folded, and has a fixing protrusion formed on a connection surface between the edges, the fixing protrusion protruding toward the coating section.   
   
   
       9 . A method of manufacturing a make-up brush, the method comprising:
 densely housing a plurality of bristles with a predetermined length into a frame such that one ends of the bristles are exposed;   melting and thermally bonding the ends of the bristles exposed to the outside of the frame by using a heating apparatus;   integrally forming or assembling a housing section in one end of a rod section which extends by a predetermined length such that a user can hold the rod section by hand, the housing section having such a cross-sectional shape that the bonded ends of the bristles can be inserted and housed; and   inserting and housing the bonded ends of the bristles into the housing section and fixing the ends of the bristles to the housing section such that the bristles have a uniform density.   
   
   
       10 . The method according to  claim 9  further comprising:
 continuously providing a bristle wound around a bobbin to one side and cutting the bristle by a predetermined length;   stacking the plurality of cut bristles such that the bristles are directed to a predetermined direction; and   weighing a necessary quantity of bristles from the plurality of stacked bristles to form a predetermined shape and then providing the bristles.   
   
   
       11 . The method according to  claim 9  or  10  further comprising:
 cutting and trimming the leading ends of the bristles exposed to the outside of the housing section.
