Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0611170A1] The brush (1) includes a core (2) formed from a metal wire curved into the shape of a U and the branches of which are twisted in order to trap between them the radial bristles (3), the core (2) being fastened to the end of a wand (rod) (6). The branches of the core are twisted by turning to the left (clockwise), in order to form spirals which turn clockwise around the axis (X) of the core when progressing from the wand towards the end of the brush, whilst the bristles (3) of the brush form helical sheets (layers) (S) rising from left to right in the zone located between the core and an observer who is holding the brush in front of her substantially vertically with its tip (point) turned upwards. <IMAGE>
