Abstract

A mascara brush is disclosed. The mascara brush of the present invention includes a bristle part ( 120 ) for applying mascara to eyelashes, and a comb part ( 130 ) for tidying the eyelashes. The bristle part and the comb part are integrally formed with a brush body through an injection molding process, such that the bristles of the bristle part are thin and the comb teeth of the comb part are relatively thick. As such, in the present invention, because the bristle part, for applying mascara to the eyelashes, and a comb part, for tidying the eyelashes, are integrally formed with the brush body by injection molding, manufacturing equipment and manufacturing and assembling processes can be simplified, thus reducing production costs and enhancing workability and productivity.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A mascara brush, comprising: a bristle part for applying mascara to eyelashes, and a comb part for tidying the eyelashes, the bristle part and the comb part being integrally formed with a brush body through an injection molding process such that bristles of the bristle part are thin and comb teeth of the comb part are relatively thick. 
   
   
       2 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in one direction. 
   
   
       3 . The mascara brush according to  claim 2 , wherein the comb part comprises from one to five rows of comb teeth arranged on the brush body and aligned in a longitudinal direction of the brush body. 
   
   
       4 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in two opposite directions. 
   
   
       5 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, and wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in three directions spaced apart from each other at regular angular intervals. 
   
   
       6 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, and wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in four directions spaced apart from each other at regular angular intervals. 
   
   
       7 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the brush body has a polygonal cross-section having three or more angles. 
   
   
       8 . The mascara brush according to  claim 7 , wherein the comb part is formed at corners of the polygonal cross-sectional brush body, and the bristle part is formed on faces of the polygonal cross-sectional brush body. 
   
   
       9 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein the brush body has an elliptical cross-section. 
   
   
       10 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , made of one selected from among elastomer, silicone and plastics. 
   
   
       11 . The mascara brush according to  claim 1 , wherein each of the bristles of the bristle part has a thickness ranging from 0.07 mm to 0.13 mm, and each of the comb teeth of the comb part has a thickness ranging from 0.35 mm to 0.41 mm. 
   
   
       12 . A mascara brush, comprising: a bristle part for applying mascara to eyelashes, and a comb part for tidying the eyelashes, the bristle part and the comb part being integrally formed with a brush body through an injection molding process, wherein the bristle part comprises bristles, which are thin, each of the bristles having branches to have a snowflake shape, thus increasing an ability to absorb mascara, and the comb part comprises comb teeth, which are relatively thick to have strength suitable to conduct an eyelash tidying operation. 
   
   
       13 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in one direction. 
   
   
       14 . The mascara brush according to  claim 13 , wherein the comb part comprises from one to five rows of comb teeth arranged on the brush body in a longitudinal direction of the brush body. 
   
   
       15 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in two opposite directions. 
   
   
       16 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, and wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in three directions spaced apart from each other at regular angular intervals. 
   
   
       17 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the bristle part and the comb part are formed such that the bristles and the comb teeth are arranged around the brush body and are oriented in radial directions, and wherein the comb part extends from the brush body in four directions spaced apart from each other at regular angular intervals. 
   
   
       18 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the brush body has a polygonal cross-section having three or more angles. 
   
   
       19 . The mascara brush according to  claim 18 , wherein the comb part is formed at corners of the polygonal cross-sectional brush body, and the bristle part is formed on faces of the polygonal cross-sectional brush body. 
   
   
       20 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , wherein the brush body has an elliptical cross-section. 
   
   
       21 . The mascara brush according to  claim 12 , made of one selected from among elastomer, silicone and plastics.
