Embodiment Construction

[0014] Now describing the accompanying drawings in detail, figure 1 and 2 show a preferred embodiment of an artificial fingernail adapted to accommodate different finger size and shape variations. The artificial fingernail 10 includes a polymer body 20 and a layer 30 of deformable material.

[0015] Polymer 20 has the general overall shape and structure of a natural fingernail, and has an upper surface 22 and a lower surface 24 . Polymer 20 may be a conventional plastic artificial fingernail, and is preferably made of a blend of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) plastic and polycarbonate, but may also be formed by using conventional injection molding techniques known in the art. , made of any plastic-like material commonly used in artificial nail products such as ABS plastic, Nylon, Thonate Acetate, Vinyl Acetate, Polycarbonate, Polyvinyl Chloride, etc.

[0016] Polymer 20 has a forward distal portion 26 and a rear proximal portion 28, both of which may be transparent, t...

Abstract

An artificial fingernail and method of making an artificial fingernail is provided in which the artificial fingernail is adapted to conform to varying finger sizes and shapes. In one aspect, the artificial fingernail includes a polymeric body having a fingernail shape with an upper and a lower surface. A layer of deformable material is applied to at least a portion of the lower surface. The layer of deformable material is adapted to conform to an upper surface of a natural fingernail when applied to the natural fingernail.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to artificial fingernails, and more particularly to artificial fingernails adapted to accommodate different finger sizes and shapes and methods of making said artificial fingernails. Background technique [0002] The prior art includes numerous patents dealing with artificial fingernails or other natural fingernail coverings and methods of applying them through the use of various forms of adhesives. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,632,134 to Reid, U.S. Patent No. 4,671,305 to Mann, U.S. Patent Nos. 4,745,934 and 4,751,935 to Mast et al., U.S. Patent No. 4,767,648 to Hokama et al., U.S. Patent Nos. 4,943,462 to Komerska et al. US Patent No. 5,638,835 to Franz et al., US Patent No. 5,699,813 to Carroll, and US Patent No. 6,394,100 to Chang. [0003] Artificial fingernails are usually made of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) plastic. ABS plastic is useful because it bonds to nail glue and is easily dissolved by ace...
