Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1070463A1] The applicator consists of a reservoir (2) for the product and an applicator brush with a holder (3), a rod (5) and a bristle tip (4). The bristles (9) have a cross-section (S13) with one or more surface cavities and spiral twists. The bristles can be in one tuft aligned with the rod or a series of radial tufts held between twisted wires, depending on the product to be applied. They are between 2 and 25 mm long, having a cross-section fitting inside a circle of 0.06 and 0.30 mm diameter, and spiral grooves with a pitch of 2 - 9 mm. The cross-sectional shape of the bristles can be geometrical, e.g. in the form of a cross, star, crescent. hollow cylinder or polygon, or various letters of the alphabet.
