Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of personal care products, and in particular to a reversible and foldable makeup brush. Background Technology

[0002] Makeup brushes include body brushes for applying body lotion, and foundation brushes and glitter brushes for facial care and makeup. However, most existing makeup brushes have a fixed structure, and the bristles are easily contaminated and damaged due to long-term exposure (such as bristles bending or getting dusty when carried). Although they use detachable brush caps, they need to be disassembled manually, which is cumbersome and parts are easy to lose.

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to develop a makeup brush that can be flipped and stored, which has a simple structure, is easy to carry and use, and is not easily contaminated or damaged. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A flip-up and retractable makeup brush, characterized in that it includes a housing assembly, a brush head, and a positioning mechanism;

[0006] The housing assembly includes a box body with an opening at the top and a flip-up body;

[0007] The flipping body is rotatably connected to the box body at its center via a rotatable connecting part.

[0008] The rotating connection part is a rotating shaft that is disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the flipping body;

[0009] The rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the shaft hole of the box body;

[0010] The rotating connection part can be quickly and easily connected to the box without tools.

[0011] The brush portion is fixedly disposed on at least one surface of the rotating body;

[0012] The positioning mechanism is disposed between the flipping body and the box body;

[0013] The flip-up body has an unfolded state and a retracted state. In the unfolded state, the brush part is exposed outside the box; in the retracted state, the brush part is completely placed inside the box.

[0014] Preferably, the brush portion includes a soft bristle area and a hard bristle area;

[0015] The soft bristle area is located in the middle of the flipping body;

[0016] The hard bristle area surrounds the soft bristle area.

[0017] Preferably, the edge of the brush portion adjacent to the rotating connection portion is a region with a gradually decreasing height, the height H1 of which is less than the maximum height H of the brush portion, and H1≤0.7H.

[0018] Preferably, the outer contour of the brush portion is adapted to the shape of the opening at the upper end of the box, and satisfies the following condition: the maximum height H of the brush portion is less than the internal depth D of the box.

[0019] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a locking block disposed at one end of the flipping body, and locking slots opened at both ends of the box body and adapted to the locking block; when the flipping body is rotated to the unfolded state or the stored state, the locking block is engaged in the corresponding locking slot.

[0020] Preferably, the flip-over portion is exposed at the opening of the box body;

[0021] The slot is a through-type slot that penetrates the side wall of the box.

[0022] When the card block is inserted into the through-type card slot, it forms a mechanical limit with the card slot wall, preventing the flipping body from continuing to rotate in the original direction. Its maximum flipping angle is limited to 180 degrees, and it can only rotate in the opposite direction to achieve state switching.

[0023] Preferably, the front and rear sides of the box are provided with recessed areas at their midpoints, with a depth of 3 to 8 mm.

[0024] Preferably, in the stored state, the outer shell assembly has a semi-circular structure.

[0025] Preferably, the box body is an arc-shaped shell with an arc angle α = 15° to 25°.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0027] 1. When stored, it forms a sealed space, effectively protecting the bristles.

[0028] 2. The dual-zone soft and hard bristles provide both gentle care and deep cleaning, meeting the diverse needs of users.

[0029] 3. The curved design of the box and the concave areas on the side walls significantly improve the grip comfort and aesthetics.

[0030] 4. The mechanical locking structure is firmly fixed, avoiding accidental flipping or loosening caused by external force during use, and its stability is far superior to magnetic methods. Attached Figure Description

[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0039] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0040] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a flip-up makeup brush includes a housing assembly 1, a brush part 2, and a positioning mechanism 3.

[0041] The outer casing assembly 1 includes a box body 11 with an opening at the top and a flip-up body 12;

[0042] The flipping body 12 is rotatably connected to the box body 11 via a rotatable connecting part 4 in the middle.

[0043] The rotating connection part 4 is a rotating shaft that is disposed opposite to both sides of the flipping body, and the rotating shaft is rotatably disposed on the shaft hole 11a of the box body 11.

[0044] The rotating connecting part 4 and the box body 11 can be quickly and easily connected without tools;

[0045] The brush part 2 is fixedly disposed on at least one surface of the flipping body 12;

[0046] The positioning mechanism 3 is disposed between the flipping body 12 and the box body 11;

[0047] The flip-up body 12 has an unfolded state and a retracted state. In the unfolded state, the brush part 2 is exposed outside the box body 11; in the retracted state, the brush part 2 is completely placed inside the box body 11.

[0048] In this embodiment, a flip-up storage structure is adopted, which is set on one surface of the flip-up body 12. The flip-up body 12 rotates relative to the box body 11 through the rotating connecting part 4. When in use, the brush part 2 is exposed to the outside of the box body 11, and when not in use, the brush part 2 is completely placed inside the box body 11. Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 3 positions the flip-up body 12 relative to the box body 11 in the unfolded or stored state. This achieves convenient carrying and use, while preventing the brush part 2 from being contaminated or damaged, and the structure is reliable.

[0049] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to clean the inner cavity of the box 11, the box 11 can be separated from the rotating connection part 4 by applying external force. The disassembly and assembly process does not require additional tools, making it convenient and the connection stable and reliable.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to reduce gravity and lower costs, a material-saving cavity 12a is provided inside the flipping body 12.

[0051] In this embodiment, by forcefully expanding the connection between the box body 1 and the rotating connection part 4 outward, the rotating shaft of the rotating connection part can be disengaged from the shaft hole, thereby realizing the separation of the flipping body 12 from the box body 1.

[0052] Furthermore, in order to meet different user needs and achieve the dual functions of gentle care and deep cleaning, the brush part 2 includes a soft bristle area 21 and a hard bristle area 22.

[0053] The soft bristle area 21 is located in the middle of the flipping body 12;

[0054] The hard bristle area 22 is arranged around the soft bristle area 21.

[0055] In this embodiment, users can choose to use the central soft bristle area 21 for daily care or the outer hard bristle area 22 for deep cleaning, depending on their cleaning needs.

[0056] In this embodiment, the soft bristle area 21 is made of soft nylon bristles (0.12 mm in diameter, H = 12 mm in height) and is used for gentle cleaning; the hard bristle area 22 is made of more rigid nylon or boar bristles (0.2 mm in diameter, 10 mm in height) and is used for deep cleaning and exfoliation.

[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to avoid motion interference and ensure smooth flipping action, the edge of the brush part 2 adjacent to the rotating connection part 4 is a gradually decreasing height area, and its height H1 is less than the maximum height H of the brush part 2, and H1≤0.7H.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the flipping body 12 rotates, the movement trajectory of the part near the rotating axis is an arc. If the bristles here are the same height as elsewhere, they are very likely to collide, rub, or even get stuck with the inner wall or edge of the box 11 during the flipping process, making it impossible to open or close normally. The gradually lowering area provides the necessary movement avoidance space for the flipping.

[0059] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to ensure reliable storage and effective protection, the outer contour of the brush part 2 is adapted to the shape of the opening at the upper end of the box body 11, and satisfies the following: the maximum height H of the brush part 2 is less than the internal depth D of the box body 11.

[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to effectively and stably maintain the flip body 12 in the unfolded or folded state, the positioning mechanism 3 includes a locking block 31 disposed at one end of the flip body 12, and a locking slot 32 opened at both ends of the box body 11 and adapted to the locking block 31.

[0061] When the flipping body 12 is rotated to the unfolded state or the stored state, the locking block 31 is locked into the corresponding locking slot 32.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to effectively prevent the flipping body 12 from over-rotating due to inertia or misoperation, part of the flipping body 12 is exposed at the opening of the box body 11.

[0063] The slot 32 is a through slot 32 that penetrates the side wall of the box body 11;

[0064] When the card block 31 is inserted into the through slot 32, it forms a mechanical limit with the wall of the slot 32, so that the flipping body 12 cannot continue to rotate in the original direction. Its maximum flipping angle is limited to 180 degrees, and it can only rotate in the opposite direction to achieve state switching.

[0065] In this embodiment, the user will feel a clear resistance point and a "click" sound, thus knowing that the end position has been reached; to change the state, a reverse force must be applied to make the card block 31 exit the current card slot 32 before it can rotate in the opposite direction.

[0066] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to improve grip comfort, stability and design, the front and rear sides of the box body 11 are provided with recessed areas 11b with a depth of 3 to 8 mm.

[0067] In this embodiment, the recessed area 11b provides a natural placement and gripping position for the thumb and fingers, increasing friction and effectively preventing the brush from slipping out of the hand, even when bathing with wet hands.

[0068] In this embodiment, the recessed area 11b breaks the monotonous flatness of the side of the box 11, increases the product's sense of line and design, and makes the product more beautiful.

[0069] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to achieve a small size and easy portability, the outer shell assembly 1 has a semi-circular structure in the stored state.

[0070] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, in order to better fit the palm of the hand during use and to improve aesthetics, the box body 11 is an arc-shaped shell with an arc angle α = 15° to 25°.

[0071] In this embodiment, the curvature of 15° to 25° can perfectly fit the curvature of the palm when holding the hand naturally, making the grip more stable and comfortable, as if it were "tailor-made" for the hand shape; and the appropriate curvature can enhance the shell's resistance to bending and deformation, making the product structure more robust and durable.

[0072] In this embodiment, to enhance aesthetics and meet the needs of different users, the box body 11 may be made of a transparent material.

[0073] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and modifications can be made based on the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all such changes and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model patent.
