AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0010] The subject invention solves the above problems by offering a make up brush device that consists of a pen-type cylindrical container capable of accommodating a brush head that is has a quick connect / disconnect that allow the user to quickly and easily change brush heads for particular needs or purposes.
[0039] It is another object of the present invention to provide a retractable brush with easily replaceable brush tip whereby said quick connect / disconnect is achieved through use of opposing polarity magnets.

Problems solved by technology

The prior devices, as described above, have several problems.
Some can only accommodate a single brush stick.
When more than one brush stick is used selectively, the changing either cannot be accomplished rapidly, or the change results in a undesirable mixing of particulate from the various brush heads.

Abstract

The present invention relates generally to a brush device that comprises pen-type container with an individual brush stick, wherein said brush sticks are selectively interchangable.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates generally to a artist / make-up brush device, and more specifically to a brush device that consists of a pen-type cylinder with an individual brush tip, wherein said brush tip is selectively interchangeable. [0002] Prior brushes have tried to address the problem of both utilizing retractable bristles to address self-styling and concerns regarding interchangability with limited success. Some prior retractable bristle brushes typically utilize complicated systems of movement that increase the cost of manufacture of the brush, require two hands to operate effectively, fail due to material collected within the operating components of the brush. [0003] One example of a retractable bristle brush is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,815,877 to Heneveld provides a rectangular brush wherein bristles are retracted from the topside of the brush by moving a sleeve that holds the bristles along a bottom side of the brush retracting the br...
