Abstract
Systems and methods here may include a two armed, spring biased applicator tool. In some examples, the arms may include an approximately 90 degree offset arm with silicone pads to aid in application of false eyelashes. In some examples, the system may include a locking mechanism to hold the two arms together for storage or application.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A system comprising:
a top arm with a hinge knuckle at a first end and an angled applicator arm at a second end; a bottom arm with a hinge knuckle at a first end and an angled applicator arm at a second end, wherein the first arm hinge knuckle and second arm hinge knuckle are arranged with a hinge pin connecting the first arm hinge knuckle and second arm hinge knuckle; a compression spring arranged between the top arm and bottom arm configured to exert a bias force against the two arms and force them into an open position unless a counter closing force is exerted on the top arm and bottom arm to counteract the compression spring and force the top arm and bottom arm into a closed position; and a bottom lock on the bottom arm, the bottom lock including a bottom hook configured to move into a first position to engage with a top hook on the top arm and move into a second position to disengage the top hook on the top arm.
2 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a top silicone pad on the top arm angled applicator arm and a bottom silicone pad on the bottom arm angled applicator arm.
3 . The system of claim 1 wherein the angled applicator arm of the top arm and the angled applicator arm of the bottom arm are arranged generally 90 degrees from the top arm and bottom arm.
4 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a spring housing wall on the top arm and a spring housing wall on the bottom arm, the spring housing wall on the top arm being generally circular and the spring housing wall on the bottom arm being generally circular.
5 . The system of claim 4 wherein a diameter of the generally circular spring housing wall on the top arm is smaller than a diameter of the generally circular spring housing wall on the bottom arm.
6 . The system of claim 1 wherein the hinge pin is arranged approximately 10 mm from an end of the first arm and the second arm, and wherein the first arm and second arm may pivot open to a maximum open angle of approximately 7 degrees.
7 . The system of claim 1 wherein the hinge pin is arranged approximately 5 mm from an end of the first arm and the second arm, and wherein the first arm and second arm may pivot open to a maximum open angle of approximately 11 degrees.
8 . The system of claim 1 wherein the hinge pin is arranged approximately 12 mm from an end of the first arm and the second arm, and wherein the first arm and second arm may pivot open to a maximum open angle of approximately 5 degrees.
9 . The system of claim 1 wherein the hinge pin is arranged approximately 3 mm from an end of the first arm and the second arm, and wherein the first arm and second arm may pivot open to a maximum open angle of approximately 17.5 degrees.
10 . The system of claim 1 wherein the movable lock is slidable.
11 . The system of claim 1 wherein the movable lock is rotatable.
12 . A system comprising:
a top arm with a first end and a second end, the top arm first end having a hinge component and the top arm second end having a top arm angled applicator arm; a bottom arm with a first end and a second end, the bottom arm first end having a hinge component and the bottom arm second end having a bottom end angled applicator arm,
wherein the top arm hinge component is in communication with the bottom arm hinge component, the top arm hinge component and bottom arm hinge component configured to allow the top arm and bottom arm to pivot in relation to each other;
a spring arranged between the top arm and bottom arm configured to push the top arm and bottom arm away from one another, the spring configured on the arms between the hinge components and the angled applicator arms; and a lock configured to lock the top arm and bottom arm together, the lock arranged between the arm hinge components and the arm angled applicator arms.
13 . The system of claim 12 wherein the movable lock is slidable.
14 . The system of claim 12 wherein the movable lock is rotatable.
15 . The system of claim 12 further comprising a top silicone pad on the top arm angled applicator arm and a bottom silicone pad on the bottom arm angled applicator arm, wherein the angled applicator arm of the top arm and the angled applicator arm of the bottom arm are arranged generally 90 degrees from the top arm and bottom arm.
16 . The system of claim 15 wherein the top arm and bottom arm each include a circular recess and the spring is configured between the top arm circular recess and the bottom arm circular recess.
17 . The system of claim 12 wherein the top arm includes at least one top guide rib along at least a part of a length of the top arm, and wherein the bottom arm includes at least one bottom guide rib along at least a part of the bottom arm, the top arm at least one top rib and the bottom arm at least one bottom rib configured to aid alignment of the top arm and bottom arm when the top arm and bottom arm are in a closed configuration.
18 . The system of claim 15 wherein the top applicator arm and bottom applicator arm are each curved and include a silicone nub at a terminal end of each respective applicator arm.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
