Device for Dispensing Artificial Eyelashes

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for dispensing artificial eyelashes, comprising a housing equipped with a dispensing region, a carrier to which a plurality of artificial eyelashes grouped into units using a connecting strip is fixed, a movement mechanism capable of being actuated to cause movement of the carrier in order to convey the artificial eyelashes towards the dispensing region and to allow the artificial eyelashes to exit through said dispensing region, said eyelashes being oriented transversely to an axis of extension of the carrier, at least when they are passing through said dispensing region, wherein said connecting strip is positioned to the side beyond said carrier.

1 . Device for dispensing artificial eyelashes, comprising a housing equipped with a dispensing region, a carrier to which a plurality of artificial eyelashes is fixed, and a movement mechanism capable of being actuated to cause movement of the carrier in order to convey the artificial eyelashes towards the dispensing region and to allow the artificial eyelashes to exit through said dispensing region, each artificial eyelash comprising a unit of eyelashes interconnected at one end by a connecting strip; said connecting strip positioned to the side beyond said carrier, said eyelashes being oriented transversely to an axis of extension of the carrier, at least when they are passing through said dispensing region, wherein the eyelashes of one of said units of eyelashes are oriented in the opposite direction to the preceding and/or subsequent unit of eyelashes along the carrier. 
     
     
         2 . Device according to  claim 1 , wherein said eyelashes are curved so as to be able to fit closely to the curvature of natural eyelashes, each artificial eyelash being positioned on said carrier in the region of the middle of the eyelashes in the longitudinal direction thereof. 
     
     
         3 . Device according to  claim 1 , wherein the carrier comprises a strip, said eyelashes being positioned on said strip. 
     
     
         4 . Device according to  claim 3 , wherein said strip comprises an adhesive region or a plurality of separate adhesive regions. 
     
     
         5 . Device according to  claim 4 , wherein each of said adhesive regions is an adhesive strip positioned along the carrier. 
     
     
         6 . Device according to  claim 5 , wherein said adhesive strip, of which one is provided, is located substantially along a central axis of said strip. 
     
     
         7 . Device according to  claim 5 , wherein said adhesive strips, of which two are provided, are located along two longitudinal edges of said strip. 
     
     
         8 . Device according to  claim 1 , wherein the movement mechanism comprises a reel that is rotatably mounted relative to the housing, said carrier being wound around said reel so as to be gradually unwound by the eyelashes exiting, said reel having a winding surface which is intended for receiving said eyelashes, said winding surface being provided with a curvature that is substantially identical to the curvature of the eyelashes. 
     
     
         9 . Assembly for applying artificial eyelashes, comprising:
 at least one device according to  claim 1 ,   a bottle of an adhesive capable of applying adhesive to units of eyelashes, and   a bottle of a product capable of dissolving said adhesive.
