Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cosmetic brushes, and in particular to a cosmetic brush made of PBT material without glue. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of makeup brushes among makeup tools, which can be combined according to personal makeup habits. However, powder brushes, concealer brushes, blush brushes, eyeshadow brushes, eyebrow brushes and lip brushes are the six essential makeup brushes. The powder brushes swept by the powder brush have a silky texture, which can make the makeup face cleaner and more lasting; the concealer brush has finer bristles, which can reach hard-to-reach areas, and the concealer effect is more uniform and natural; the blush brush can apply blush with a natural arc, blend shadows, and perfectly highlight the facial contour; there are many types of eyeshadow brushes, and eyeshadow brushes of different sizes need to be prepared to match different eye-drawing methods; the eyebrow brush needs to be used with eyebrow powder to draw a very natural eyebrow shape; the lip brush accurately outlines the lip shape, making the lips full and even in color, and more lasting, meeting people's needs for makeup on different parts of the body.

[0003] At present, makeup brushes mainly consist of three parts: bristles, brush tubes, and brush handles. The bristles on the market are mainly made of fiber hair, the tubes are mainly aluminum tubes, and the handles are mainly PS or ABS plastic handles. The three parts are fixed with glue. The bristles, tubes, and handles are made of different materials, and they need to be specially classified for recycling after use. In addition, glue is a chemical, which brings great inconvenience to the recycling of finished products. The organic components in the glue may contain formaldehyde and benzene, which can cause harm to the human body and may affect other aspects such as the respiratory tract and skin, which is very environmentally unfriendly. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a PBT material glue-free makeup brush, which has the characteristics of being glue-free and made of uniform raw materials, and has the advantages of being environmentally friendly, safe, and easy to recycle.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted in this application is:

[0006] The present application provides a glue-free makeup brush made of PBT material, comprising a brush head, a brush tube and a brush handle, and also comprising a brush head fixing part, one end of the brush head is fixed in the brush head fixing part, the brush head fixing part is fixed to one end of the brush tube, and the other end of the brush tube is fixed to the brush handle; the brush head, brush head fixing part, brush tube and brush handle are all made of PBT material.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the present application have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0008] 1. The bristles of the present application are fixed to the mouth tube of the brush head fixing part by ultrasonic means, the mouth tube of the brush head fixing part is fixed to the brush tube by a snap buckle, and the brush tube is fixed to the brush handle by a snap buckle or a thread. The whole cosmetic brush is assembled and prepared in this way without the need for glue, and the process of preparation and use will not generate harmful gases. There is no need to remove the glue during recycling, which is more convenient for recycling and meets the needs of environmental protection.

[0009] 2. The bristles, bristle fixings, brush tubes and brush handles of the present application are all made of the same raw material, PBT plastic, so that the makeup brushes do not need to be disassembled and classified when they are recycled. The entire makeup brush can be recycled for waste recycling, which simplifies the recycling procedure, saves costs, and has economic benefits.

[0010] 3. In the preferred embodiment of the present application, degradable yeast can be added to the PBT plastic, so that the entire makeup brush can be naturally degraded in a certain environment, which is more environmentally friendly and efficient.

[0011] In summary, the PBT plastic glue-free makeup brush of the present application has the advantages of reducing resource consumption, reducing energy consumption, reducing waste and pollution, improving circular economy, and reducing production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below. If the specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, they are carried out according to the conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is not specified for the reagents or instruments used, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0017] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0018] A PBT glue-free cosmetic brush comprises a brush head, a brush tube and a brush handle, and also comprises a brush head fixing part, wherein one end of the brush head is fixed in the brush head fixing part, the brush head fixing part is fixed to one end of the brush tube, and the other end of the brush tube is fixed to the brush handle; the brush head, the brush head fixing part, the brush tube and the brush handle are all made of PBT material.

[0019] In some embodiments of the present application, the brush head is fixed in the brush head fixing member by ultrasonic process.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the brush head fixing member is fixed in the brush tube by means of a snap-fit.

[0021] In some embodiments of the present application, the other end of the brush tube is fixed to the brush handle by a buckle or a thread.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, the PBT material further comprises degradation yeast.

[0023] In some embodiments of the present application, the added amount of the above-mentioned degradation yeast is 1%.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, the PBT material of the brush head fixing part, the brush tube and the brush handle further contains pigment.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, the brush head fixing part and the brush tube can be separated for the sake of aesthetics and convenience of changing the colors of different parts. Alternatively, in order to save costs and reduce a set of injection molds and production and assembly processes, the brush head fixing part and the brush tube buckle structure can be combined into one, or the brush tube and the brush handle can adopt an integrated structure without affecting the overall product of a single material.

[0026] In some other embodiments of the present application, the makeup brush of the present application as a whole can also be set to a lipstick-like rotating structure, and the bristles can be rotated out of the brush tube or the brush handle by rotating the brush handle for use, which is more convenient to carry and keep clean.

[0027] In the context of global advocacy of energy conservation, environmental protection and sustainable development, this application has the following advantages:

[0028] Reduce resource consumption: Promoting the recycling and reuse of recycled plastics can reduce the demand for raw materials and thus save resources.

[0029] Reduced energy consumption: Promoting the recycling of recycled plastics requires less energy than making new plastics, thus reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.

[0030] Reducing waste and pollution: Promoting the recycling and reuse process of recycled plastics helps reduce waste generation and pollution to the environment. If plastic waste is directly discarded, it will accumulate in landfills or pollute water bodies, while the use of recycled plastics can reduce the amount of these wastes.

[0031] Improve circular economy: The use of recycled plastics promotes the realization of a circular economy, transforming waste plastics into useful products, extending their lifespan and reducing dependence on natural resources.

[0032] Lower costs: Recycled plastics cost less than new plastics because the cost of recycling and reuse is relatively low.

[0033] The features and performance of the present application are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.
