[0017] The technical aspects of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in relation to the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person skilled in the art without performing creative labors belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0018] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the drawings below are intended to distinguish between similar objects without necessarily being used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this manner can be interchanged where appropriate, such that the embodiments of this application described herein can be practiced, for example, in an order other than that shown or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprise" and "have" and all variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the steps or units explicitly listed, but may include steps or units not explicitly listed or other steps or units inherent to the process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0019] For ease of explanation, spatially relative terms such as "above...", "above...", "on top of...", "above" are used herein to describe the spatial location of one device or feature relative to another device or feature as shown in the figures. It is understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations in use or operation of the device other than the orientation described in the figures. For example, if a device in the drawings is turned upside down, a device described as "above other devices or structures" or "on top of other devices or structures" would later be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "under other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above..." may include two orientations: "above..." and "below...". The device may be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and appropriately accounted for the spatially relative descriptions used herein.

[0020] Example: As shown in Figs. 1-9, the eyelash brush includes a brush rod 10 and brush bristles 20. The brush rod 10 includes a gripping portion 11 and a mounting portion 12 that are fixedly connected. The roots of the brush bristles 20 are provided on the side wall of the mounting portion 12, and the free ends of the brush bristles 20 are separated from the mounting portion 12. The side wall of the mounting portion 12 has a flat surface. At least one row of brush bristles 20 is provided on the flat surface, and the center line of the brush bristles 20 intersects the axis of the brush rod 10 non-orthogonally. The manufacturing process of the eyelash brush includes an integral molding process such as injection molding, gel injection, or blow molding in a molding cycle. Optionally, the brush rod 10 and the brush bristles 20 are integral injection molded products. Of course, the eyelash brush may be manufactured using other techniques, but the present application is not limited thereto. Having a flat surface on the side wall of the mounting portion 12 and having at least one row of bristles 20 on the flat surface means that the roots of at least one row of bristles 20 are attached to the flat surface. Having the center line of the bristles 20 intersect the axis of the brush rod 10 non-orthogonally means that the bristles 20 are arranged at an incline on the brush rod 10 or the center line of the bristles 20 is an arched line. In the present application, the bristles are arranged at an incline on the brush rod or the center line of the bristles 20 is an arched line, thereby increasing the surface area of ​​the bristles. Moreover, since the roots of at least one row of bristles are attached to the flat surface, and a flat surface has better material adhesion and material retention than a circular arc surface, the eyelash brush can apply more cosmetic from the bottle each time, increasing the material retention of the entire eyelash brush, thereby reducing the number of times the eyelash brush applies material, and improving the efficiency of makeup application.

[0021] In addition, by arranging the center line of the brush bristles 20 to intersect non-orthogonally with the axis of the brush rod 10, i.e., by providing an angle between the center line of the brush bristles and the axis of the brush rod, the brush bristles can be more easily inserted between the eyelashes. In addition, since the brush bristles are not perpendicular to the axis of the brush rod, the cross-sectional area of ​​the entire eyelash brush is reduced, and if the length of the brush bristles remains the same, the mouth of the mascara bottle becomes correspondingly smaller, which has the advantages of a high application effect, a more compact overall structure, and easier combing of the eyelashes.

[0022] Alternatively, the sidewall of the mounting portion 12 is entirely made up of flat surfaces or is made up of flat and non-flat surfaces. Alternatively, the sidewall of the mounting portion 12 includes flat surfaces and arcuate surfaces, the number of flat surfaces is 1 to 20, and brush bristles 20 are provided on all of the flat surfaces. Brush bristles 20 may or may not be provided on the arcuate surfaces.

[0023] Optionally, all the flat surfaces are arranged continuously along the circumferential direction of the mounting portion 12, the number of flat surfaces is 4 to 16, and the number of arc surfaces is 1. That is, the cross sections along the radial direction of the mounting portion 12 are composed of arc shapes and polygonal shapes. All of the cross sections according to this specification are perpendicular to the axis of the brush rod 10.

[0024] Optionally, the flat surfaces and the arc surfaces are alternately arranged along the circumferential direction of the mounting portion 12, and the number of the flat surfaces and the arc surfaces is 2 to 8. That is, the side walls of the mounting portion 12 are alternately configured with flat surfaces and arc surfaces, and the cross sections along the radial direction of the mounting portion 12 are alternately connected to each other by arcs and straight lines. The arc surfaces may be convex or concave. Optionally, the arc surfaces are convex, and brush bristles 20 are provided on each arc surface, making makeup more convenient when the arc surfaces are convex. When the arc surfaces are concave, the material retention is high.

[0025] The circumferential direction of the side wall of the mounting portion 12 is made up of 3 to 20 flat surfaces. That is, the side walls around the mounting portion 12 are all flat surfaces. The cross section of the mounting portion 12 is polygonal. The polygon may be a regular polygon or an irregular polygon.

[0026] Optionally, the cross section of the mounting portion 12 is a regular polygon having 3 to 20 sides.

[0027] Alternatively, the cross section of the attachment part 12 is a regular octagon, a regular decagon, a regular dodecagon, a regular tetragon, or a regular hexadecagon, with one row of brush bristles on each plane. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of the eyelash brush of this embodiment. The cross section of this embodiment is a regular decagon. That is, the attachment part 12 is composed of 10 planes, with one row of brush bristles on each plane. Since planes have better material adhesion and material retention than arcuate planes, eyelash brushes having this structure have better material adhesion and material retention. Of course, the cross section of the attachment part 12 may be a regular octagon, a regular dodecagon, a regular tetradecagon, or the like. If the number of sides of the cross section is small, two rows of brush bristles can be provided on one plane. Of course, it is not preferable for the number of sides of a regular polygon to be too large. If the number of sides of a regular polygon is too large, for example exceeding 18 sides, the area of ​​the plane is too small and the advantage of portability is lost. For practical use, it is necessary to arrange the number of regular polygons in a rational manner in accordance with the diameter of the mounting portion 12.

[0028] As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the plane is disposed along the axial direction of the entire side wall of the attachment portion 12. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the present eyelash brush, and Figure 8 shows a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the present eyelash brush. As can be seen from the figures, the plane extends from the top of the attachment portion 12 to the tail of the attachment portion 12, which is connected to the grip portion 11. As shown in Figures 1 and 9, the attachment portion 12 in this embodiment is entirely composed of planes in the circumferential and axial directions.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 8, the attachment portion 12 is divided into an upper portion, a middle portion, and a lower portion along the axial direction, and at least a part of the upper portion, the middle portion, and the lower portion has a cylindrical structure. That is, the attachment portion 12 is divided into three stages, the upper portion, the middle portion, and the lower portion, along the axial direction, and the flat surface of the side wall of the attachment portion 12 is provided in one or two of the three stages, but does not extend in the entire axial direction of the attachment portion 12. Optionally, the middle portion and the lower portion have a cylindrical structure, i.e., the upper portion of the attachment portion 12 has a flat surface. Or, the lower portion has a cylindrical structure, i.e., the upper and middle portions of the attachment portion 12 have flat surfaces. The length of the brush bristles in the middle portion of the attachment portion 12 is smaller than the length of the brush bristles in the upper portion and the lower portion, thereby fitting better to the shape of the eyelashes and achieving a better brushing effect.

[0030] Alternatively, the center line of the brush bristles 20 is an arc line, the angle between all the brush bristles 20 and the axis of the brush rod 10 is the same, the brush bristles 20 are arranged in a single row at a distance along the axis of the brush rod 10, or the brush bristles 20 are arranged in multiple rows at a distance along the axis of the brush rod 10 and at the same time arranged in a cyclone shape at a distance along the circumferential direction of the brush rod 10, and the brush bristles 20 of two adjacent rows are arranged side by side or cross each other along the axis of the brush rod 10. When the brush bristles 20 are arranged in multiple rows, the number of rows of the brush bristles 20 is 8 rows, 10 rows, 12 rows, etc. Note that the number of rows of the brush bristles 20 is an exemplary description, and the present application does not limit the specific number of rows. In this embodiment, the number of rows is 10 rows. The brush bristles 20 of two adjacent rows are parallel to each other or cross each other along the axis of the brush rod 10. The brushing effect can be improved by the brush bristles 20 of the two adjacent rows crossing each other.

[0031] It should be pointed out to those skilled in the art that any modifications or improvements made without departing from the concept of the present application will fall within the scope of protection of the present application, and therefore the scope of protection of the present application should be in accordance with the scope of the attached utility model claims.
