Mascara brush

Abstract

The present invention provides a mascara brush, which does not require a user to check the rotational position of the mascara brush before using it and makes it easy to apply mascara to eyelashes. The mascara brush includes a support bar ( 41 ), a tidying comb unit ( 150 ), and an applying brush unit ( 140 ). The tidying comb unit has a comb support part, a comb body, and several rows of combs. Brush exposure slots are formed in the comb body between the combs. An insert hole and an insert scat are formed in the tidying comb unit. The applying brush unit includes a coupling protrusion, which is inserted into the insert scat of the tidying comb unit, a brush support bar, the upper end of which is supported in the insert hole, and several rows of brushes, which are formed on the brush support bar.

 a support bar having at a first end thereof a coupling hole, so that a comb support part is coupled to the first end of the support bar through the coupling hole, the support bar being coupled at a second end thereof to a handle;   a tidying comb unit, comprising the comb support part, inserted into the coupling hole of the support bar, a comb body extending a predetermined length from the comb support part, and three rows of comb teeth provided on a side surface of the comb body and oriented in directions perpendicular to the side surface of the comb body, with brush exposure slots formed in the comb body between the three rows of comb teeth, an insert hole formed in the tidying comb unit to support an upper end of a brush support bar, an insert seat formed in a lower end of the tidying comb unit to support a lower end of an applying brush unit, and a hollow space defined in the tidying comb unit between the insert hole and the insert seat, so that the brush support bar of the applying brush unit is disposed in the hollow space; and   the applying brush unit, comprising a coupling protrusion inserted into the insert seat of the tidying comb unit, the brush support bar, the upper end of which is supported in the insert hole of the tidying comb unit, and three rows of brushes formed on a side surface of the brush support bar by forming cut parts between the three rows of brushes, the brushes being oriented in directions perpendicular to the brush support bar, wherein the three rows of brushes are exposed outside through respective brush exposure slots.   
     
     
         2 . A mascara brush, comprising:
 a support bar having at a first end thereof a coupling hole so that a comb support part is coupled to the first end of the support bar through the coupling hole, the support bar being coupled at a second end thereof to a handle;   a tidying comb unit, comprising the comb support part inserted into the coupling hole in the support bar, a comb body extending a predetermined length from the comb support part, and four rows of comb teeth provided on a side surface of the comb body and oriented in directions perpendicular to the side surface of the comb body, with brush exposure slots formed in the comb body between the four rows of comb teeth, an insert hole formed in the tidying comb unit to support an upper end of a brush support bar, an insert seat formed in a lower end of the tidying comb unit to support a lower end of an applying brush unit, and a hollow space defined in the tidying comb unit between the insert hole and the insert seat, so that the brush support bar of the applying brush unit is disposed in the hollow space; and   the applying brush unit, comprising a coupling protrusion inserted into the insert seat of the tidying comb unit, the brush support bar, the upper end of which is supported in the insert hole of the tidying comb unit, and four rows of brushes formed on a side surface of the brush support bar by forming cut parts between the four rows of brushes, the brushes being oriented in directions perpendicular to the brush support bar, wherein the four rows of brushes are exposed outside through the respective brush exposure slots.
