Multi-function fingernail device

Abstract

A multi-function fingernail device having a first brush component with a handle and a brush head, the handle having an open end exposing a hollow interior. A second brush component is removably insertable into and out of the hollow interior. The second brush component has a brush at one end and a scraper, with a cleaner/applicator attached to the scraper or a second brush, at the other end. The second brush component may be of a single-piece, or of a separable two-piece, construction.

1 . A multi-function fingernail device comprising:
 (a) a first brush component having a brush head with a curvilinear brush tip;   (b) a handle attached to said brush head wherein said handle has an open end having a width-W and a hollow interior in communication with said open end; and   (c) a second brush component having a brush handle with a front end and a distal end with a brush attached to said front end, a scraper handle attached to said brush handle at an adjacency section wherein said scraper handle has a front end and a distal end with a scraper attached to said front end, and wherein said second brush component is removably insertable into said handle of said first brush component.   
   
   
       2 . The device of  claim 1  wherein said brush head of said first brush component has a radial arc of approximately between 80° and 140°. 
   
   
       3 . The device of  claim 1  wherein said brush of said second brush component has a radial arc of approximately between 60° and 100°. 
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 1  wherein said adjacency section has a width-W 1 , said brush handle front end has a width-W 2  and said scraper handle front end has a width-W 2 ′, wherein width-W 1  is greater than width-W, and width-W is greater than said width-W 2  and said width-W 2 ′. 
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 1  further comprising attachment means for removably attaching said brush handle to said scraper handle. 
   
   
       6 . The device of  claim 5  wherein said attachment means comprises a friction-fitting wherein said brush handle distal end has an open end with a width-W 3  and said scraper handle distal end has a width-W 1 ′ wherein width-W 3  is greater than width-W 1 ′. 
   
   
       7 . The device of  claim 6  wherein a middle section on said scraper handle has a width-W 3 ′ wherein Width-W 3 ′ is greater than width-W 3 . 
   
   
       8 . The device of  claim 5  wherein said attachment means comprises a friction-fitting wherein said scraper handle distal end has an open end with a width-W 3  and said brush handle distal end has a width-W 1 ′ wherein width-W 3  is greater than width-W 1 ′. 
   
   
       9 . The device of  claim 8  wherein a middle section on said brush handle has a width-W 3 ′ wherein Width-W 3 ′ is greater than width-W 3 . 
   
   
       10 . The device of  claim 5  wherein said attachment means comprises a detent adjacent to the distal end of said scraper handle and a slot adjacent to the distal end of said brush handle wherein said detent registers into said slot. 
   
   
       11 . The device of  claim 5  wherein said attachment means comprises a detent adjacent to the distal end of said brush handle and a slot adjacent to the distal end of said scraper handle wherein said detent registers into said slot. 
   
   
       12 . The device of  claim 1  wherein said scraper extends outward from said scraper handle terminating at an end point, is substantially flat, and is substantially rigid. 
   
   
       13 . The device of  claim 12  further comprising a ball-like member at the end point of said scraper. 
   
   
       14 . The device of  claim 12  further comprising a flattened round-like member at the end point of said scraper. 
   
   
       15 . A multi-function fingernail device comprising:
 (a) a first brush component having a brush head with a curvilinear brush tip;   (b) a handle attached to said brush head wherein said handle has an open end having a width-W and a hollow interior in communication with said open end; and   (c) a second brush component having a handle with a front end, a back end, and an adjacency section between said front end and said back end, wherein a first brush is attached to said front end and a second brush is attached to said back end, and wherein said second brush component is removably insertable into said handle of said first brush component.
