Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. In the following description of the drawings, the same or similar parts are denoted by the same or similar reference numerals. However, it should be noted that the drawings are schematic, and the ratios of the respective dimensions are different from the actual ones. Therefore, specific dimensions and the like should be determined with reference to the following description. Also, there may be portions where the dimensional relationships and ratios are different between the drawings. In this specification and the drawings, elements having substantially the same functions and configurations are denoted by the same reference numerals to omit redundant descriptions, and elements not directly related to the present invention are not shown.

[0011] (First Embodiment) Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6, the mill 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the overall configuration of the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is an example of a front view of the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, FIG. 3 is an example of a view of the mill 1 shown in FIG. 2 as seen from the left direction X, FIG. 4 is an example of a view showing a state in which the lid portion 5 of the mill 1 according to the present embodiment is opened, FIG. 5 is a view for explaining an example of a situation in which decorative powder produced using the mill 1 according to the present embodiment is applied to nails, and FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining an example of a method for producing decorative powder to be applied to the nails according to the present embodiment.

[0012] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the mill 1 according to the present embodiment crushes the object S to be crushed taken in from the inlet 11 by the crushing unit 13 and discharges the crushed product L of the object S to be crushed from the outlet 12.

[0013] For example, as the object S to be crushed, minerals such as synthetic mica are used. In such a case, the crushed product L is called pearl (extremely small to small), lame (medium to large), or glitter (extremely large) according to the particle size.

[0014] Such a crushed product L may be used as decorative powder to be applied to nails, or may be used as decorative powder to be applied to other than nails. For example, such a crushed product L may be used on the face for makeup, or may be used on the skin such as the arm.

[0015] Furthermore, the mill 1 includes a tip portion 2, a rotary handle 3, a lid portion 5, and an adjustment dial 6. For example, the main body 4 of the mill 1 may be made of ABS resin. Also, the color of the main body 4 may be black. According to such a configuration, the crushed material L placed at the tip portion 2 is easier to see.

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tip portion 2 extends from a part of the periphery 12E of the discharge port 12.

[0017] Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the tip portion 2 may have a portion with a width W2 that is wider than the width W1 at the periphery 12E. According to such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 5, the crushed material L crushed by the crushing portion 13 and discharged from the discharge port 12 can be temporarily placed on the tip portion 2 and then moved to a desired location, so that the scattered state of the crushed material L can be avoided.

[0018] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the rotary handle 3 operates the crushing portion 13 by rotating about an axis O extending in the longitudinal direction D1 of the mill 1.

[0019] Here, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, only a part of the rotary handle 3 may be exposed from the main body 4 of the mill 1. According to such a configuration, since the part of the rotary handle 3 that is exposed from the main body 4 can be rotated while holding the part of the rotary handle 3 that is not exposed from the main body 4, the user can operate the crushing portion 13 with one hand.

[0020] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the lid portion 5 covers the rotary handle 3. As shown in FIG. 4, an inlet 11 may be provided in the rotary handle 3. When the lid portion 5 is opened as shown in FIG. 4, the inlet 11 is exposed. According to such a configuration, by providing the inlet 11 in the rotary handle 3, the number of parts can be reduced.

[0021] Note that, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of inlets 11 may be provided in the rotary handle 3. According to such a configuration, the user can more reliably operate the grinding unit 3 by holding the main body 4 with one hand and inserting the fingers of the other hand into the inlet 11 to rotate the rotary handle 3.

[0022] The adjustment dial 6 adjusts the particle size of the ground material L obtained by grinding by the grinding unit 13.

[0023] Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 6, an example of a method for manufacturing the ground material L (decorative powder for applying to nails) according to the present embodiment will be described.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 6, in step S101, the user puts the object S to be ground into the inlet 11 of the mill 1.

[0025] In step S102, the user rotates the rotary handle 3 of the mill 1 to grind the object S to be ground by the grinding unit 13 of the mill 1 (step S103).

[0026] In step S104, the user discharges the ground material L of the object S to be ground from the discharge port 12 of the mill 1 as a decorative powder for applying to nails, temporarily places it at the tip portion 2, and then transfers it to a desired position (for example, the position of a desired nail).

[0027] According to the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, a decorative powder can be easily manufactured. Further, according to the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, decorative powders different depending on the scene or application can be manufactured.

[0028] Further, according to the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, while holding the mill 1 with one hand, the decorative powder manufactured by the mill 1 can be sprinkled on the nails of the other hand.

[0029] Furthermore, according to the mill 1 according to the present embodiment, by grinding mica instead of plastic, microplastics are not generated, and decorative powder that is friendly to the global environment can be produced, contributing to Goal 14, Target 14.1 of the SDGs.

[0030] Although the present invention has been described in detail using the above-described embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described in this specification. The present invention can be implemented as modified and changed modes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the description of the claims. Therefore, the description of this specification is for the purpose of illustration and has no restrictive meaning for the present invention.
