专利说明:

[0001] The present invention relates to the application of a cosmetic product to human keratin materials, in particular the skin, the lips or the eyelashes and / or eyebrows. European patent application EP 2 976 162 discloses a device for treating human keratin materials, in particular the skin, comprising two parts that are removably attached to one another and that define two opposite faces of the applicator, allow to perform different treatments. The first face allows for example to apply a cosmetic product and the second side to remove, clean or absorb impurities. European Patent Applications EP 1 726 235 and EP 0 792 602 disclose cosmetic product applicators having a cavity for retaining the product to be applied. EP 0 839 472 discloses a flocked applicator comprising a housing receiving a foam impregnated with a cosmetic product. There is a need to further improve the packaging and application devices and in particular to benefit from a device which is simple in its construction and which makes it possible to obtain new treatment or make-up effects. According to one of its aspects, the subject of the invention is therefore an applicator member for applying a cosmetic product to human keratin materials, comprising an applicator head having two opposite faces, the applicator head comprising a first part having at least one housing, and a second part connected by a hinge to the first part and engaged at least partially in the housing of the first part, the first and second parts being both accessible on each of said parts. faces of the applicator head. The applicator head may have a generally flattened shape and said faces may correspond to the main faces. The invention offers new possibilities for producing the applicator member, with on the first and second parts different surface states and / or different materials. In particular, the invention makes it very easy to flock only one of the parts, if desired, or to flock them differently. Such partial flocking, limited to. one of the parts, also gives an attractive aesthetic to the applicator. By "being both accessible on each of said faces of the applicator head", it is understood that, on each of these faces, the first and second parts are at least partially present on the surface and / or accessible through a through opening. This may allow, if desired, to achieve the applicator member so that, during the application of the cosmetic product from one of said faces, the human keratin materials come into contact with least one of the first and second parts, better in contact with both if the user wishes. On at least a portion of the length of the applicator member, it is possible to have on each of said faces the two portions that are visible; alternatively, on at least a portion of the length of the applicator member, only one of the parts is visible on one of said faces. This is for example the case when the first part has a slot housing in which is engaged an upper portion of the second portion carrying pins, the second portion having a lower portion defining at the base of the upper portion, a shoulder, and that the first part is set back from the edge of this shoulder. The body of the applicator member may be made in one piece, by molding thermoplastic material (s). Preferably, the housing of the first part is through, allowing access to the second part from each of said faces of the applicator head. The second part can contain the product to apply. It may thus comprise, on at least one of said faces, a cavity containing the cosmetic product to be applied. This product is for example semi-solid, red type or lip gloss, foundation, mascara or eyeshadow and comes into direct contact with keratin materials when using the application member. The product contained in the cavity may be in the form of a mass of cast or compacted product, without impregnation of a porous structure. Alternatively, the product mass impregnates a porous structure.
[0002] Thus, alternatively, the second part comprises, on at least one of said faces, a porous material, which can be impregnated with the cosmetic product before the first use, or alternatively, impregnate with the product during the first use. The possibility of producing, if desired, the applicator member with the product contained thereon without having to be withdrawn makes it possible to reduce the size of the device and to facilitate its use. Alternatively, the user uses a product reservoir and the application member belongs for example to an applicator arranged to close the container in the absence of use. Preferably, the aforesaid hinge is disposed on the applicator member opposite the distal end of the applicator head. The hinge is preferably a hinge film or having two flexible strands. The hinge may be molded with the body of the applicator member in a thermoplastic material. At least one of the first and second portions, preferably the first portion, is at least partially, more fully, flocked. The flocking hairs allow better retention of the cosmetic product on the applicator member and facilitate its spreading over the area to be treated. Preferably, the other of the first and second parts, in particular the second part, is unflocked. This allows, if desired, to limit the amount of cosmetic product that accumulates on the applicator member. This other part can be made without reservoir cavity. One or more reliefs can be made on this other part to exert for example a massage action of the skin or lips or separation of eyelashes or eyebrows. As a variant, this other part is at least partially flocked, but the flocking of the first part may be different from the flocking of the second part, especially in terms of the amount of fibers, fiber sizes and / or the physical properties of the fibers. for example, fiber stiffness. Two different flocages can make it possible to have different effects when applying the cosmetic product. In addition, attractive aesthetic effects can be achieved, for example by using different colors for the fibers.
[0003] At least one of the first and second parts, preferably the second part, may have raised or recessed reliefs, for example in the form of pins, bosses, grooves, grooves, cells, in particular in a regular arrangement. Advantageously, the first part is flocked and the second part has reliefs hollow or projecting, for example in the form of pins. The presence of spikes may allow, when applying product on the eyelashes and / or eyebrows, to separate them. The first part may carry a flocking coating and the second part may or may not include one or more rows of longitudinally extending spikes. The protruding reliefs may also be made to allow to exert a massage effect on the skin or the lips during the application of the cosmetic product. The recessed reliefs can promote the accumulation of product on the application member and increase its autonomy. The second part may protrude from the first part upwards and / or downwards when the applicator member is viewed from the side while being horizontal. It may be smooth and have a general shape protruding from the first part upwards and downwards, being for example in the form of a ball of diameter greater than the thickness of the first part. By "side view" is meant an observation perpendicular to a median plane for said faces, this median plane being substantially perpendicular to the plane of flattening of the applicator head. The second part may carry a pattern or inscription in relief or print form. The second part can completely occupy the housing of the first part. Alternatively, the second portion only partially occupies the housing of the first portion, the first and second portion defining a space therebetween for product accumulation. This space fills for example product when the applicator member is immersed in a reservoir containing the product. The second part can be fully engaged in the corresponding housing of the first part.
[0004] The first part can be made with two branches joining at their ends and defining between them the housing in which is engaged the second part. When one of said faces is viewed in front, the first portion may extend all the way around the second portion. The first part can carry a flocking coating all around the second part. The applicator head may have a width which decreases, in front view, towards its free end. The two branches of the second portion may converge toward each other towards the distal free edge. The applicator head may have, in side view, a thickness that varies relatively little towards the distal free edge, in particular that varies less than 25% of a thickness at a given location, over 90% of its length. The contour of the second portion may be rounded both in cross-section and when viewed from the front. The second part can be engaged in housing the first part partially and not completely; for example, a bracket of the second part is engaged in the housing of the first part. The first part then surrounds at least partially, better completely, the second part. The second portion may include a through opening through which the first portion is accessible. When viewed in front view of one of said faces, the visible surface of the second portion may surround at least partially, more fully, the visible surface of the first portion. When viewed from the front of the other of said faces, the visible surface of the first portion may surround at least partially, more completely, the visible surface of the second portion. Preferably, the first part is made of a flexible material, in particular elastomer. The first and second portions preferably form a single molded piece of thermoplastic material. Preferably, the applicator head is connected to a fitting or gripping tip of the applicator member. The tip is preferably formed of two half-ends, interconnected by the aforementioned hinge. Preferably, this hinge is disposed at the end of the tip opposite the applicator head. The two half-end pieces can be folded over one another to form the complete end piece, used for example for mounting in an applicator rod. The applicator member may comprise a tip of substantially cylindrical shape of revolution formed of two half-ends; each half-nozzle can be connected to one of said parts by a flared transition zone widening towards the corresponding part. A portion of the applicator member may be overmolded over the rest of the applicator, in particular of a different material. The applicator head may extend with its longitudinal axis aligned with that of the tip. Alternatively, the longitudinal axis of the applicator head is at a non-zero angle with that of the tip. The first and the second part can be fixed to each other in the use configuration, easily dismountable or not, by snap-fitting or force-fitting. The second part may comprise a raised projection at its periphery, cooperating with a recessed relief of the first part, or vice versa. Alternatively, the two half-ends or the first and second parts comprise other cooperating reliefs for maintaining the first and second parts in the configuration of use. The first part may comprise a fixing hook and / or the second part may comprise a fixing lug, the fixing hook being inserted in or under the through opening of the second part and the fixing lug engaging in the housing of the first part, the fixing lug cooperating with the fixing hook to hold the second part folded on the first part. Preferably, the fixing lug has a tooth which, upon folding of the second portion on the first portion, engages with the snap-fastening hook. Preferably, one of the fixing hook and the fixing lug, in particular the fixing lug, is flush with the surface of one of the main faces. In another variant, the first and second parts are not fixed to each other but only folded over one another. The holding of the first and second parts is then done for example by the introduction of the tip of the applicator member in a recess of a rod, the end piece coming for example to fit tightly in this recess or the rod being crimped on the tip, so that the two half-tips, and thus the first and the second part, are kept applied to one another. The invention also relates, in another of its aspects, to an application member for the application of a cosmetic product to human keratinous materials, comprising an applicator head having two opposite faces, the applicator head comprising: a first part having at least one housing, and a second part connected by a hinge to the first part and engaged at least partially in the housing of the first part, and containing the product to be applied. Such an applicator member makes it possible to apply a cosmetic product directly contained in the applicator member for the first use, without the need for a reservoir external to the applicator member. Preferably, according to this second aspect of the invention, the first and second parts are both accessible on each of the main faces of the applicator head, as for the application member defined above. According to a third aspect, the invention relates to an applicator member for applying a cosmetic product to the eyelashes and / or the eyebrows, comprising an applicator head having: a first part having at least one housing, and a second part connected by a hinge to the first part and engaged at least partially in the housing of the first part, the second part having pins, the first part having a flocking coating. The applicator head may have a face on which the housing opens, the flocking coating extending for example all around the opening of the housing or along the housing, on one side or on both sides of the -this. The invention further relates, in another of its aspects, to a device for applying a product to human keratin materials, comprising: a rod, an application member according to the invention, according to the invention; the first or the second aspect as defined above, the applicator member being attached to the end of the rod.
[0005] The tip of the applicator member is preferably inserted in a recess open at the end of the rod. Preferably, the device comprises a container containing the cosmetic product to be applied. This container may comprise a wiper member.
[0006] The device can be used for applying the product to the skin and / or the lips. Alternatively, the device is configured for application of the product on the eyelashes and / or eyebrows. The container may contain a product to be applied to the skin and / or the lips, especially a foundation, eyeshadow, concealer, concealer, lipstick, lip gloss, or a product to be applied on eyelashes and / or eyebrows, especially mascara. The invention further relates, in another of its aspects, to a method of manufacturing an application member according to the invention, comprising the steps of: molding a body of the application member to open state, comprising - a first part having at least one housing, and - a second part connected by a hinge to the first part and intended to engage in the housing after folding of the second part on the first part, - to apply an adhesive on one of the first and second parts, preferably on the first part, - applying flocking bristles on the adhesive, - folding the second part on the first part so that the second part engages at least partially in the housing of the first part.
[0007] Preferably, the body of the applicator member comprises two half-ends connected at their distal end respectively to the first and second parts, and connected together at their proximal end by the hinge. The second part can be fixed to the first part by snapping or mounting force. As a variant, the second part and the first part are only folded against each other and maintained in this state by an additional means, for example a rod in which the end piece is inserted.
[0008] The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a device according to the invention, comprising the step of fixing the application member as defined above on a rod, for example by inserting the tip in an open housing at the end of the stem.

FIG. 70, FIG. 72 is a front view of a variant of the applicator member, FIG. 73 is a side view of the applicator of FIG. 72, and FIG. 74 illustrates an alternative embodiment of FIG. the hinge. The packaging and application device 1, illustrated in FIG. 1, comprises a container 10 containing a product P to be applied and an applicator 3 for taking and applying the product contained in the container. The applicator 3 comprises a rod 4 having a longitudinal axis X, bearing at one of its ends an applicator member 8 comprising an applicator head 9. As can be seen in FIGS. 2 to 4, the applicator head 9 comprises a first part 15 and a second part 17 engaged in the first part 15, these two parts being interconnected by a hinge 34. In the example illustrated, the axis X of the rod 4 is rectilinear but it could be curved, alternatively. The container 10 may comprise in the upper part a neck 21, as illustrated. A wringing member 24 is engaged in this neck 21. As illustrated in Figure 1, the rod 4 is provided at its other end 6 with a gripping member 13 also constituting a sealing cap of the container 10. L The distal end 5 of the rod 4 has a recess which receives a fitting endpiece 30 of the applicator member 8. The applicator head 9 extends along a longitudinal axis T and is connected to the endpiece 30. This The latter is formed by two half-nozzles 30a and 30b in contact with each other and interconnected by the hinge 34. The two half-nozzles 30a and 30b are respectively connected to the first 30 and the second half. 17. The tip 30 may be retained in the rod 4 by any means, including gluing, force mounting, stapling, screwing, crimping or latching.
[0010] Preferably, the two half-ends 30a and 30b each have a flat face 31a and 31b, the latter coming into contact with each other over their entire surface. Alternatively, these faces comprise one or more reliefs cooperating, for example by snapping.
[0011] FIG. 18 illustrates the possibility for one of the half-nozzles 30a or 30b to include a recessed relief 75 for receiving the other half-nozzle. Preferably, the tip 30 is of cylindrical shape of revolution in case of mounting in a rod. The tip can be made differently, especially when it is intended to be used directly for gripping.
[0012] Preferably, the hinge 34 is disposed at the ends 36a and 36b of the two half-ends 30a and 30b which are opposed to the first and second parts 15 and 17. It allows the two parts 15 and 17 and the two half-ends 30a and 30b to be molded in open configuration in one piece and to assemble by rotation of the second portion 17 and the half-end 30b about a Y axis of the hinge 34, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis Z of the 30, as shown in Figures 5 to 7. The applicator head 9 may be generally flattened in a plane M perpendicular to the plane of Figure 4 and defines two opposite major faces 18 and 19. Preferably, the applicator head 9 has a larger width L which is greater than that D of the tip 30.
[0013] The first part 15 may be flocked, as illustrated in FIG. 1, and the second part 17 may comprise reliefs such as a plurality of ribs 27, as illustrated in FIG. 2. The ribs 27 preferably extend obliquely relative to the longitudinal axis T, forming an angle with the longitudinal axis T. The longitudinal axis T of the applicator head 9 preferably forms an angle α with the longitudinal axis Z of the nozzle 30, preferably less than 45 °, better between 10 and 45 °. As illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 7, the first and second parts 15 and 17 may each be connected to a respective half-nozzle 30a or 30b via a corresponding intermediate portion 43a or 43b, which widens in the direction of of the associated part. Preferably, the intermediate portions 43a and 43b are symmetrical so that when they are folded over one another, the applicator member 8 does not have a recess in its portion extending between the end piece 30 and the applicator head 9.
[0014] The hinge 34 is preferably a film hinge, as illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 7. In the example considered, the first part 15 comprises two branches 48 joining at their ends and defining between them a housing 40, in particular through, to receive the second part 17. Preferably, the first part 15 surrounds the second part 17, when the applicator member is viewed from the front, as in Figure 3. The housing 40 and the second portion 17 are for example substantially oval contour, as illustrated.
[0015] The second part 17 can completely fill the housing 40. The applicator head 9 can taper slightly toward its free end, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 7. As can be seen in particular in FIGS. 8 and 9, the first and second parts 15 and 17 may have respective thicknesses ea and eb, which are greater than those da and db of the intermediate parts 43a and 43b. The total thickness e of the applicator head may be less than its greater width L, as can be seen in FIG. 10. As illustrated in FIG. 8, the second portion 17 may be of substantially rectangular cross-section and comprise a rib 50 to its periphery 47.
[0016] It can be seen in FIG. 9 that each leg 48 of the first portion 15 may comprise a corresponding groove 53. As illustrated in Figure 10, the rib 50 snaps, when folding the second portion 17 on the first portion 15, in the groove 53 to keep the applicator member 8 in the closed position.
[0017] It may be otherwise, and in particular the first portion 15 may comprise a rib snapping into a groove of the second portion 17 or the first and the second portion 15 and 17 have no snap fastening relief. Figures 11 to 17 show an alternative embodiment of the invention which differs from that described in relation to Figures 1 to 10 mainly by the shape and size of the second portion 17. As seen in Figures 11 to 13 the second part 17 can only partially fill the seat 40 sotte that remains in the applicator head 9, a space 60 between the first part 15 and the second part 17, which allows the accumulation of product on the head applicator 9. The second portion 17 may have protruding reliefs 65, in particular bosses, in particular with a circular contour in front view, making it possible to exert a massage action on the skin or the lips. The two portions 8a and 8b can be held in place by the insertion of the applicator member 8 in the recess of the rod 4. The two half-ends 30a and 30b are then clamped against each other . FIGS. 18 and 19 show an alternative embodiment which differs from the example of FIGS. 1 to 10 by the shape of the second part 17. This comprises a non-through cavity 70 containing the cosmetic product P, which is not thus accessible only on one side of the application member. The cosmetic product P is for example eye shadow type, foundation, red or lip gloss, or mascara. One of the half-tips 30a and 30b may be wider than the other. For example, a relief recessed 75 extends along the half-end 30a to receive the half-end 30b. In the variants illustrated in FIGS. 20 to 27, the second portion 17 has projecting or recessed reliefs of different shapes, in particular bosses 65, as illustrated in FIGS. 23, 25 and 26, grooves 27, oblique or as shown in FIGS. 20 and 27, longitudinal grooves 72 as illustrated in FIG. 24, cavities 74 as illustrated in FIGS. 21 and 22, or pins 76, as illustrated in FIG. 25. When viewed from the front the contour of the applicator head, over a greater part of the length which is flocked, may be substantially elliptical, as illustrated in Figures 24 and 25, rectangular as illustrated in Figures 26 and 27, with parallel lateral edges connected by a rounded as in Figures 22 and 23, or convex edges outwardly connected by a rounded as in Figures 20 and 21. In the variant illustrated in Figure 28, the second portion 17 carries a relief 30 80 or an impression, for example representing a decorative logo or inscription helping the user to identify themselves during use.
[0018] In the example of this figure, the tip serves as a direct grip on the user. The tip 30 can still be inserted into a cladding element serving as a gripping member. This embodiment allows in particular the application of foundation. In the variant illustrated in Figures 29 and 30, the second portion 17 is in the form of a bulge 83, for example in the form of a ball, which is housed in the housing 40 defined by the first portion 15, so as to protruding from both sides of the housing 40 in side view. This bulge 83 can be used to massage the keratin materials. Figures 31 to 35 illustrate an alternative embodiment of the invention which differs from that described in relation to Figures 1 to 10 mainly by the shape of the two parts and their method of attachment. The first and second parts 15 and 17 are of similar dimensions and come, in folded position, in contact with one another. The second part 17 has a through opening 88, visible in FIG. 33, and a fixing lug 90 coming into the housing 40. This fixing lug 90 has a tooth 100. The first part 15 comprises a fixing hook 95 disposed, when the applicator member is in the folded position, in or under the through opening 88 of the second portion 17, so that it remains visually accessible from the face 19. The fastening tab 90, in particular the tooth 100, and the hook 95 come into engagement with one another, as illustrated in FIG. 33. In this example, the first and the second part 15 and 17 define, in the folded position, a free space 110 in the applicator head 9. Preferably, as illustrated, the fastening tab 90 is flush with the face 8, so that, when using the applicator member, the keratin materials may come into contact with its end. The applicator member may comprise, as illustrated in FIGS. 31 to 35, a collar 120 serving as an insertion stop in the rod, this collar 120 being formed between the intermediate parts 43a and 43b and the half-nozzles 30a and 30b.
[0019] Various examples of arrangements of the first and second parts of the applicator head are shown in FIGS. 36 to 59 in cross-section. In these figures, the residual clearance between the first and second parts could be exaggerated for the sake of clarity.
[0020] In the example of FIG. 36, the applicator head has a generally flattened shape along a plane of flattening M. The second portion 17 has for example, as illustrated, a cross section in the general shape of an hourglass, which is retained by complementarity of shapes. in the housing 40 of the first part 15. The applicator portion may have a symmetrical shape with respect to a plane of symmetry S which may be perpendicular to the plane of flattening M. In the example of FIG. 37, the applicator head presents in cross section a general shape of almond. The extents occupied by the second part on each of the opposite faces 18 and 19 of the applicator head may be different. In the example shown, the second portion 17 thus occupies a smaller portion of the face 18 than the face 19, the portion 17 being wider at its base. The portion of the application surface defined by the second portion 17 may have a smaller radius of curvature on the side of the face 18 than on the side of the face 19. In FIG. 37, the applicator head has a symmetrical shape with respect to at the plane of symmetry S, but in a non-illustrated variant, the applicator head has an asymmetrical shape with respect to a median plane intersecting it at mid-length. As in the example of Figure 36, the second part has a narrowing of its section between the faces 18 and 19, which ensures the maintenance in place of the second part in the housing 40. The plane where the second part becomes the most narrow can coincide as illustrated with that where the first part 15 is the widest. In the example of Figure 37, the applicator head has a section which is asymmetrical with respect to a plane intersecting it mid-thickness. In the example of Figure 38, the applicator head has a cross section which is generally of polygonal shape and more particularly, in the example, of square shape. The housing 40 in which is received the second portion 17 may be defined between two branches 48 having convex surfaces facing and for example substantially in the shape of a quarter circle. When the applicator head has a cross section of generally polygonal shape, it may be symmetrical with respect to a mid-plane intersecting it mid-thickness, as illustrated. In a variant not shown, the applicator head has a cross section of non-regular polygonal shape. In the example of Figure 39, the applicator head has a cross section which is generally oval, for example elliptical. The major axis of the section may be contained in a median plane M intersecting the applicator head at mid-thickness. The applicator head may have a generally symmetrical shape with respect to a plane of symmetry S perpendicular to the median plane M. In the example of FIG. 40, the applicator head has a generally circular shape in cross section; It can be seen in this figure that the second part 17 can occupy a part of the surface of each face 18 or 19 which is different depending on the face considered. Thus, in the illustrated example, the second portion occupies on the face 18 a central narrow strip and on the face 19 substantially all of this face, the rest thereof being defined by the lower portions 48i of the branches 48.
[0021] In the example of Figure 41, the applicator head has in cross section a general multilobed shape, with for example as illustrated four lobes. The housing 40 in which the second part 17 is received is defined between the branches 48 which constitute the left and right lobes. The applicator head may have a shape having a symmetry with respect to a median plane M intersecting it at mid-thickness as well as with respect to an orthogonal plane S. The variant embodiment of FIG. 42 differs from that of FIG. by the presence on the first part 15 of a coating of flocking fibers 215 and by the presence on the second part 17, on each of the faces 18 and 19, of pins 217, the applicator being more particularly intended for lash makeup and eyebrows. The number of pins 217 and their arrangement and / or their shape may differ between faces 18 and 19; for example, as illustrated in FIG. 42, the number of pins 217 on the face 18 is smaller than the number of pins on the face 19. The embodiment of FIG. 43 differs from that of FIG. a flocking coating 215 on the opposite faces of the limbs 48 of the first portion 15 as well as by the presence of the pins 217 on the second portion 17, on the faces 18 and 19.
[0022] On the face 18, which corresponds to the upper side of the section in the figure, the pins 217 are for example all aligned substantially parallel to the plane S, while on the face 19, the pins 217 are oriented substantially radially. It is also possible, as illustrated in FIGS. 42 and 43, to cover the pins 217 with a flocking coating 218. The same is true of the embodiment examples of FIGS. 44 and 45, which differ respectively from those of FIGS. 38 and 39. by the presence of the flocking coating 215, the pins 217 and the flocking coating 218. In non-illustrated variants, the flock coating 218 is absent. The same is true of the exemplary embodiments of FIGS. 46 and 47. It can be seen in these figures that the flocking coating 218 can cover not only the pins 217 but also the outer portions of the second portion 17 which extend between the pins or between them and the first part 15, as shown in Figure 47 in particular. In the presence of a second multilobed portion 17, the pins 217 are, for example, oriented substantially radially on each corresponding lobed portion. The presence of grooves formed between one of the lobes of the second portion 17 and the two lobes of the first portion 15 can accumulate product and increase the autonomy of the applicator. The examples of FIGS. 48 to 53 differ from those of FIGS. 42 to 47 by the absence of the flocking coating 218 on the second portion 17. The examples of FIGS. 54 to 59 differ from those of FIGS. 36 to 41 by the presence of flocking coatings 215 and 218 on the first 15 and second portions 17. In the illustrated examples, the flocking coating 218 of the second portion 17 does not extend over the surfaces thereof facing the first portion 25. 15, in the housing 40. In a variant not shown, the coating 218 overflows on these surfaces, and the assembly of the first and second parts makes it possible to hide the flocking coating which overflows on said surfaces, which can make it possible to obtain sharp contours on each of the faces 18 and 19. It may be the same flocking coating 215 which extends on the first part. It may overflow into the housing 40 and be partially hidden by the second part when it is put in place.
[0023] The flocking coatings 215 and 218 of the first 15 and second 17 parts are for example flock fibers differ in length and / or diameter, the material used and / or their color. FIGS. 68 and 69 show another example embodiment of an applicator member. In this example, the first part comprises two branches 48 defining a housing 40 in which is received the second portion 17, which is on the side of the face 18 of the pins 217, while it is devoid of the side of the face 19 which corresponds to the back of the application organ. The pins 217 are for example arranged in one or more rows of pins, for example two or three rows extending longitudinally. The applicator head may have a generally curved, concave shape on the side of the face 18. The first portion 15 may comprise a flocking coating 215 which extends all around the second portion 17 on the side of the face 18, as can be see especially in Figure 68. The second portion 17 has an upper portion 17s which widens as can be seen in Figure 69, to ensure the snap-fastening of the second portion 17 in the first 15. L ' embodiment of FIGS. 70 and 71 is fairly close to that of FIGS. 68 and 69. However, the face 19 is defined on the major part of the applicator member by the second part 17, the first part 15 being visible on the side of the face 19 at the end of the applicator member, on a distal portion 15d where the second part 17 is absent. The second portion 17 may on the portion of its length where it is engaged in the first part, extend over a width greater than or equal to that of the first part, as can be seen in Figure 71. The second part may have a shoulder 245 which lies in a plane 25 of greater width for the applicator member 8. In the example of Figures 72 and 73, the first portion 15 has pins 219 on the side of the face 18, visible in FIG. 72, as well as around the periphery of the first portion 15, the second portion 17 being devoid of such pins. The second portion 17 may or may not include a flocking coating.
[0024] The first part 15 has two branches that converge towards the distal end of the applicator member when it is viewed from the front, as in FIG. 72, forming between them a housing 40 in the general shape of a droplet. water, for example, as illustrated. The pins 219 which extend around the periphery of the first portion 15 may each have their longitudinal axis which is contained in a median plane M intersecting the applicator member substantially at mid-thickness. The other pins 219 may be oriented substantially perpendicular to this plane M, as illustrated. Of course, other examples of arrangements of the pins are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention. The hinge can be made as illustrated in FIG. 74, with two flexible strands 234 that connect to each of the parts 15 and 17 away from their proximal end. The strands form a kind of frame in top view, in the molding configuration. The invention is not limited to the illustrated examples. In particular, the characteristics of the various examples illustrated can be combined within variations not shown. For example, in general the two parts can be flocked, flocking being different; one of the parts may comprise on one side a relief of a certain type and the other another type of relief to have different effects on one side and the other of the applicator.
[0025] The phrase "having one" is synonymous with "comprising at least one".
