Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a thermal conductive makeup application apparatus, and more specifically to a makeup brush configured to provide hot air through brush bristles and enable enhanced blending of makeup on user's skin.

BACKGROUND

Many users apply cosmetics, makeup foundation, etc. on their faces to hide scars, pigments, etc., or generally to enhance appearance. A user may apply the makeup foundation on facial skin by using a makeup application apparatus such as a makeup brush.

The foundation is typically in powder or semi-solid form, and may not blend with the facial skin seamlessly by using a conventional makeup brush. The user may be required to pat the brush for a substantial time duration to blend the foundation with the skin. This may cause inconvenience to the user. Further, there may be instances where the foundation may not blend completely with the skin even after patting the brush for a long time duration. This may result in sub-optimal makeup application on the user skin.

Thus, there is a need for a makeup application apparatus that may enable a user to conveniently apply makeup foundation or cosmetics to the user skin.

It is with respect to these and other considerations that the disclosure made herein is presented.

Illustrative Embodiments

The disclosure will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which example embodiments of the disclosure are shown, and not intended to be limiting.

FIG.1 depicts anexample environment100 in which techniques and structures for providing the systems and methods disclosed herein may be implemented. Theenvironment100 may include auser105 who may be using a thermal conductive makeup application apparatus110 (or apparatus110) to apply makeup to a user facial area/skin. The makeup may be, for example, cosmetics or foundation Further, the makeup may be in powder or semi-solid form. In some aspects, theuser105 may first apply the makeup on the facial skin and then pat the skin using theapparatus110. In other aspects, theuser105 may first apply the makeup on theapparatus110 and then pat theapparatus110 on the skin to blend the makeup.

Theapparatus110 may be a makeup brush including ahandle115 and a plurality ofbristles120. Thehandle115 may be shaped as an elongated hollow cylinder (or a hollow cuboid) having a length in a range of 6 to 10 inches. In some aspects, thehandle115 may be hollow throughout a handle length. In other aspects, one or more portions of thehandle115 may be hollow, and remaining portions may be solid. For example, handle top and bottom portions may be solid, and a handle middle portion may be hollow. Further, thehandle115 may have a tapered diameter (or width), with a diameter of ahandle bottom portion125 less than a diameter of a handletop portion130. In an exemplary aspect, a handle top portion diameter may be in a range of 0.75 to 2 inches, and a handle bottom portion diameter may be in a range of 0.5 to 1.5 inches. The tapered diameter may facilitate a comfortable grip of thehandle115, when theuser105 holds the handle115 (e.g., by using fingers). Thehandle115 may be made of plastic, fiber, wood, and/or the like. In an exemplary aspect, thehandle115 may be made of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic.

Theapparatus110 may further include a removable top cover135 (or cover135) that may be removably attached to thehandle top portion130. Thecover135 may be shaped as a hollow cylinder, with a diameter equivalent to the handle top portion diameter. Thecover135 may be made of flexible plastic, and may have a length in a range of 0.5 to 1.5 inches. In some aspects, thecover135 may be transparent or translucent. In other aspects, thecover135 may be opaque The plurality ofbristles120 may be disposed in proximity to a cover top portion, as shown inFIG.1. The plurality ofbristles120 may be made of nylon, polyester, synthetic Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPU), and/or the like Each bristle120 may have a length in a range of 1 to 2 inches.

Theapparatus110 may be configured to blow hot air through and/or around the plurality ofbristles120, so that theuser105 may conveniently apply and blend the makeup to the facial skin. Specifically, theuser105 may apply the makeup directly to the facial skin or to the plurality ofbristles120, and may pat (or rub) the makeup on the skin by using the plurality ofbristles120. The hot air may heat bristle top portions, and thus the makeup, which may enable the makeup to liquefy. A person ordinarily skilled in the art may appreciate that the makeup may blend efficiently with the facial skin and easily assimilate into the skin when the makeup may be liquefied. After applying the makeup and patting the makeup on the facial skin by using the plurality ofbristles120, theuser105 may allow the makeup to cool and blend with the facial skin.

Structural details of theapparatus110 are described in detail in conjunction with subsequent figures.

FIG.2A depicts an example thermal conductive makeup application apparatus in accordance with the present disclosure. Specifically,FIG.2A depicts theapparatus110 described in conjunction withFIG.1. While describingFIG.2A, references may be made toFIG.2B andFIG.3.

As described above in conjunction withFIG.1, theapparatus110 may include thecover135 that may be removably attached to thehandle top portion130. Thecover135 may be attached mechanically or magnetically to thehandle top portion130, such that thecover135 may be easily removed from or attached to thehandle top portion130 by theuser105. A view of theapparatus110 with thecover135 removed is shown inFIG.2B.

In some aspects, thehandle top portion130 may include anelongated head205, as shown inFIG.2B. Theelongated head205 may be shaped as a cylinder that may be made of same material as thehandle115. Theelongated head205 may be hollow, with a consistent diameter throughout elongated head length. In some aspects, an elongated head diameter may be less than the handle top portion diameter, as shown inFIG.2B. In an exemplary aspect, the elongated head diameter may be in a range of 0.5 to 1 inches. In other aspects, the elongated head diameter may be equivalent to the handle top portion diameter. In an exemplary aspect, an elongated head length may be in a range of 1 to 1.5 inches. Further, a center of theelongated head205 may coincide with a center of thehandle top portion130.

Theelongated head205 may be configured to enable attachment of abrush head305 to thehandle top portion130. As shown inFIG.3, thebrush head305 may include a brushhead top portion310 and a brushhead bottom portion315. The brushhead top portion310 may include the plurality ofbristles120, and the brushhead bottom portion315 may be configured to attach to thehandle top portion130. In some aspects, the brushhead bottom portion315 and thehandle top portion130 may include magnetic attachment means (not shown) that may enable removable attachment of the brushhead bottom portion315 with thehandle top portion130.

In some aspects, theuser105 may attach thebrush head305 to thehandle top portion130 by inserting the brushhead bottom portion315 in theelongated head205. In this case, the brushhead bottom portion315 may be cylindrical in shape, and a brush head bottom portion diameter may be equivalent to (or slightly less than) the elongated head diameter. When theuser105 inserts the brushhead bottom portion315 in theelongated head205, magnetic coupling between the brushhead bottom portion315 and thehandle top portion130 may generate attractive force, which may enable thebrush head305 to attach with thehandle top portion130. In a similar manner, theuser105 may “pull” thebrush head305 from theelongated head205 and detach the brushhead bottom portion315 from thehandle top portion130, when theuser105 desires to replace thebrush head305 with a new brush head (or clean the plurality of bristles120) Theuser105 may then insert the new brush head in theelongated head205 to secure new brush head attachment with thehandle top portion130. Theelongated head205 may provide stable and robust attachment between thebrush head305 and thehandle top portion130.

Although the description above (and as shown inFIGS.2A,2B and3) describes an aspect where thebrush head305 may be attached to thehandle top portion130 via theelongated head205, the present disclosure is not limited to the presence of theelongated head205. In an alternative aspect (not shown), thehandle top portion130 may not include theelongated head205. In this case, the brushhead bottom portion315 may be directly attached to thehandle top portion130 via the magnetic attachment means. Further, in this case, the brush head bottom portion diameter may be equivalent to the handle top portion diameter.

As shown inFIG.2B, thehandle top portion130 may further include a plurality of vents210 (or through-holes). The plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on a handle top portion periphery (as shown inFIG.2B). Eachvent210 may be equidistant from adjacent vents, and may be of any shape including, but not limited to, circular, square, rectangular, etc. Further, eachvent210 may have a diameter or width in a range of 0.1 to 1 centimeter. In some aspects, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed along an entire handle top portion circumference. In other aspects, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on one or more portions of the handle top portion circumference.

Theapparatus110 may further include a heating element (shown asheating element405 inFIG.4) that may be disposed in a handle interior portion. The heating element may be configured to blow hot air towards thehandle top portion130. The plurality ofvents210 may allow passage of the hot air from the heating element towards the plurality ofbristles120. Specifically, since the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on the handle top portion periphery, the plurality ofvents210 may enable the hot air to pass around the plurality ofbristles120. In this case, the hot air may wrap around the plurality ofbristles120 and may pass towards bristle top portions. The hot air may heat the bristle top portions, and consequently liquefy the makeup that may be disposed on the bristle top portions (or on the user facial skin on which the bristle top portions may be rubbed or patted). In this manner, theapparatus110 may enable the makeup to liquefy, and hence easily blend with the user facial skin.

In another aspect (not shown), the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on a handle top portion center part (specifically, a flat surface of the handle top portion130). Specifically, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on the handle top portion center part that may be fully or substantially underneath the brushhead bottom portion315. In this case, the plurality ofvents210 may allow hot air passage through the plurality ofbristles120. In yet another aspect, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on both the handle top portion periphery and the handle top portion center part.

In some aspects, thecover135 may ensure that the hot air passing through the plurality ofvents210 do not escape “sideways”, and is predominantly directed towards the bristle top portions. Stated another way, thecover135 may trap the hot air that may be passed via the plurality ofvents210, and may enable the hot air to reach to the bristle top portions. In this case, thecover135 may enclose the brush head bottom portion315 (specifically the elongated head205) and the plurality ofvents210, so that the hot air does not escape sideways. Further, in this case, thecover135 may be formed of heat-resistant plastic, e.g., Polyetherimide, Polyether ether ketone, Polytetrafluoroethylene, Polybenzimidazole, and/or the like, to ensure that thecover135 does not get damaged when the hot air passes through the plurality ofvents210 towards the bristle top portions.

FIG.4 depicts an internal view of an example thermal conductive makeup application apparatus in accordance with the present disclosure. Specifically,FIG.4 depicts an interior view of theapparatus110.

In addition to the elements described in conjunction withFIGS.1,2A,2B and3, theapparatus110 may include a plurality of elements including, but not limited to, aheating element405, apower source410, and an actuation and temperature control unit415 (or unit415). Theheating element405, thepower source410 and theunit415 may be disposed in a handle interior portion, between thehandle bottom portion125 and thehandle top portion130 as shown inFIG.4.

Theheating element405 may be configured to blow hot air towards the plurality ofbristles120 via the plurality ofvents210. Specifically, theheating element405 may include aheater420 and one ormore fans425, which may enable blowing of the hot air towards the plurality ofbristles120. In some aspects, thefans425 may be disposed below theheater420 Stated another way, thefans425 may be disposed between theheater420 and thehandle bottom portion125. Theheater420 may be configured to generate heat, and thefans425 may blow air that may transfer heat from theheater420 towards thehandle top portion130 in the form of hot air. The hot air may pass through the plurality ofvents210 and towards the plurality ofbristles120.

As described above, in some aspects, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on the handle top portion periphery. In this case, thefans425 may be configured to blow hot air around the plurality ofbristles120 via the plurality ofvents210. In other aspects, the plurality ofvents210 may be disposed on the handle top portion center part (e.g., underneath the brush head bottom portion315). In this case, thefans425 may be configured to blow hot air towards bristle bottom portions via the plurality ofvents210. The hot air may travel from the bristle bottom portions towards the bristle top portions, thereby liquefying the makeup as described above. In yet another aspect, theelongated head205 may include one or more hollow tubes (not shown) that may be disposed in an elongated head interior portion (e.g., a hollow interior portion of the elongated head205). One end of each tube may be connected to one ormore vents210 and the other end may be disposed in proximity to the bristle top portions. In this case, thefans425 may blow hot air towards the bristle top portions via the plurality ofvents210 and the one or more tubes. In some aspects, the tubes may ensure that a substantial portion of the hot air reaches the bristle top portions (and hence towards the user facial skin), and loss of heat is minimal

In some aspects, different configurations of the vents210 (and/or the tubes) may enable application of different types of cosmetics on different types of user skin types. For example, based on whether the cosmetic and/or the user skin type require more or less heat, apparatuses with different configurations of the vents210 (and/or the tubes) may be used.

Theheating element405 may be powered by thepower source410, and actuated by a user (e.g., the user105) by using theunit415. Specifically, theuser105 may actuate (e.g., switch ON) theheating element405 by providing inputs to theunit415. In some aspects, theunit415 may include a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) that may be disposed on a handle exterior surface, using which theuser105 may input a command to switch ON theheating element405. In other aspects, theunit415 may include a mechanical dialer that may be disposed on the handle exterior surface, and theuser105 may switch ON theheating element405 by using the mechanical dialer. In yet another aspect, theunit415 may be configured to receive inputs from theuser105 wirelessly. In this case, theunit415 may communicatively couple with a user device via a wireless communication network, such as BlueTooth™, Ultra-wideband (UWB), Near Field Communication (NFC), and/or the like. Theuser105 may input the command to switch ON theheating element405 on the user device, which may transmit the command to theunit415 via the wireless communication network.

Responsive to receiving the command to switch ON theheating element405 from theuser105, theunit415 may send the command to thepower source410. Thepower source410 may then power theheating element405, responsive to receiving the command from theunit415.

In some aspects, theheating element405 may be configured to blow hot air at a predetermined temperature when thepower source410 powers theheating element405. The predetermined temperature may be in a range of, e.g., 75 to 85 degree Celsius. In other aspects, theuser105 may control hot air temperature by using theunit415. In this case, along with or separately from the command to switch ON theheating element405, the user104 may input a desired hot air temperature on the unit415 (e.g., via the HMI or the mechanical dialer, or wirelessly). Theunit415 may send the input to theheating element405, which may then blow the hot air at the temperature desired by theuser105

Theunit415 may be further configured to deactivate theheating element405 based on user inputs. For example, when theuser105 has applied the makeup on the facial skin, theuser105 may send deactivation inputs (e.g., via the HMI or the mechanical dialer, or wirelessly) to theunit415 to deactivate theheating element405. Responsive to receiving the deactivation inputs, theunit415 may send a deactivation command signal to thepower source410, which may in turn stop supply of power to theheating element405 responsive to receiving the deactivation command signal.

In some aspects, thepower source410 may include a rechargeable battery that may be charged via a Universal Serial Bus (USB) charger or an inductive wireless charger (e.g, via a Qi charging pad).

In additional aspects, theapparatus110 may include an insulating layer (not shown) disposed between theheating element405 and handle interior sidewalls, which may ensure that thehandle115 does not heat when theheating element405 blows hot air. The insulating layer may be made of mica sheet and may match a handle inner profile. In an exemplary aspect, when theheating element405 blows hot air in a temperature range of 75 to 85 degree Celsius, the insulating layer may ensure that the temperature of handle sidewalls do not exceed 50 degree Celsius. In this manner, theapparatus110 may ensure that theuser105 may conveniently apply the makeup to the user facial skin without any discomfort, when theheating element405 may be blowing hot air towards the plurality ofbristles120.

In yet another aspect, theapparatus110 may include one or more proximity sensors that may automatically actuate (i.e., switch ON) theheating element405 when theapparatus110 may be brought in proximity to the user facial skin. Specifically, in this case, the proximity sensors may send a command signal to thepower source410 to actuate theheating element405 when a distance between the user facial skin and the bristle top portions or thehandle top portion130 may be less than a predefined threshold. Responsive to receiving the command signal, thepower source410 may power theheating element405.

Theapparatus110 may further include one or more indicators (e.g., Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and/or audio indicators) that may actuate when theheating element405 actuates. For example, theapparatus110 may include one or more LEDs that may illuminate when theheating element405 blows hot air. In further aspects, intensity of LED illumination may change based on the hot air temperature. For example, the LEDs may illuminate with a higher intensity when the hot air temperature may be high, and the LEDs may illuminate with a lower intensity when the hot air temperature may be relatively low.

In additional aspects, theapparatus110 may include a timer (not shown) that may automatically switch OFF theheating element405 when theheating element405 blows hot air for more than a predefined time duration threshold. In this case, the timer may send a deactivation command signal to thepower source410 when the timer detects that theheating elements405 may have blown hot air for more than the predefined time duration threshold. Responsive to receiving the deactivation command signal, thepower source410 may stop supply of power to theheating element405. In an alternative aspect, the timer may send a temperature reduction command signal to theheating element405 when the timer detects that theheating element405 may have blown hot air for more than the predefined time duration threshold. In this case, theheating element405 may reduce hot air temperature by a predetermined amount (e.g., reduce by 50% or 75% of existing hot air temperature), responsive to receiving the temperature reduction command signal from the timer.

Theapparatus110 described in the present disclosures provides many advantages over a conventional makeup brush. For example, since hot air is provided through the plurality ofbristles120 towards the makeup and the user facial skin, the makeup blends easily and seamlessly to the user skin. Specifically, the hot air enables the makeup to liquefy and hence the makeup blends more evenly and quickly on the user skin. Further, blowing of hot air on the user facial skin helps in oil control and clearing pores. Furthermore, regular apparatus usage (specifically blowing of the hot air on the user facial skin) may assist in reducing wrinkles.

FIG.5 depicts a flow diagram of anexample method500 for applying makeup to a user facial skin in accordance with the present disclosure.FIG.5 may be described with continued reference to prior figures, includingFIGS.1-4. The following process is exemplary and not confined to the steps described hereafter.

Referring toFIG.5, atstep502, themethod500 may commence. Atstep504, themethod500 may include activating theheating element405. As described above, theuser105 may activate theheating element405 by using theunit415.

Atstep506, themethod500 may include applying makeup to the plurality of bristles120 (or the user facial skin). Atstep508, themethod500 may include applying or blending the makeup to the user facial skin by using the plurality ofbristles120. As described above, theuser105 may apply the makeup to the facial skin by patting the plurality of bristles120 (including the makeup) on the facial skin. Since theheating element405 blows hot air towards the plurality ofbristles120 and the facial skin, the makeup may blend easily, quickly and seamlessly in the skin.

Atstep510, themethod500 may include deactivating theheating element405. Theuser105 may deactivateheating element405 by using theunit415. Deactivating theheating element405 may enable the makeup to cool on the user facial skin.

Atstep512, themethod500 may stop.
