MARCELLUS Patented Sept. 25, 195i UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE COMBINED EYELASH CURLER, MASCARA APPLICATOR, AND REMOVER Ada C. Marcellus, New York, N. Y. Application March 2, 1949, Serial No. 79,185
therefrom mascara or Vaseline; while, more particularly, the aim is to provide a novel and valuable such appliance and one involving the inclusion of improved means for permitting a more efilcacious application or removal of mascara and Vaseline. The present application proposes improvements in the Mascara and Vaseline Applicators forming the subject matter of my copendin application Serial No. 702,865 filed October 11, 1946, granted as Patent No. 2,489,099 on November 22, 1949.
One of the important features of the present invention is an arrangement such that any one of a number of different applicators, each adapted for a special function, may be at will, if already on the appliance, removed therefrom, for the secure and ready replacement of another and a differently functioning applicator; as for substituting one applicator for another as from time to time required, Or to change the combination of a plurality of the actuators to be used conjointly at one time while detachably mounted on the applicator-carrying means. This means, or carrier, will below be called the traveller. ,As an example of the various different kinds of, applicators advantageously to be used at different times on the new appliance may be mentioned brushes, one for instance with a single line of bristle tufts and another for instance with a plurality of lines of such tufts, a rubber roll, a sponge roll or a brush roll, a strip of spongy material or comb with teeth. The rubber roll is capacitatcd for an important smoothing action. Thesponge element when moistened and a plied to the lashes will soften them for easier curling, and will loosen the previously applied and sometimes caked mascara and then facilitate its removal. At the same time, the sponge element absorbs the thus loosened and hence relatively flow-able yet viscously fluent mascara and thus prevents it from running into the eyes. Also, with advantage and for certain uses, a brush having its bristles extended all around the same from a core of rolled or twisted wire, may well constitute the workin instrumentality of a singly or plurally employable applicator.
All the applicators should be readily removable, not only for interchangeable use, as above, but also for individual cleaning. The rubber roll, sponge roll, brush rolland the sponge element,
2 especially, have for the latter reason to be made removable, because when mascara gets into cor-' ners, crevices .and the like, as in between the sponge or rubber and a gripper or other holder therefor on the travellerythe mascara 'hardens and cakes and'cannot be removed until the parts are disassembled.
Various other important features of the present invention will be pointed out or become apparent from the within disclosure when fully studied.
For further comprehension of the invention,
and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.

Fig. 25 is an enlarged sectional view taken on the line 25-25 of Fig.24.
Referring now to the drawings more in detail, and first to Figs. 1-3, the new appliance as here illustratively shown constitutes an appliance operable scissors-fashion by relative movements of the thumb and a finger of one hand of a 4 person with these digitals each inserted in one of two substantially o- shaped receptors 30 and 3|; these receptors, or eyes, being formed, one on the lower end of what will be called a fixed frame 32, this frame shown as constituted by suitably bending and shaping a single piece of round wire and carrying rigidly at its top the already mentioned shield, 33. The other of these eyes is formed on the lowerend of a swinggframe 34, also shown as constituted by suitablybending and forming a single piece of round wire. The
two frames 32 and 34 are interpivoted as at 35.
The aforesaid traveller, for upward and downward sliding movement relative to the shield 33, and along the upper two parallelly erectile terminal lengths of the wire member of the frame 32, is designated 36. As for the corresponding terminal lengths of the wire member of the frame 34, these terminal lengths, forwardly extending, are flattened and laid side by side together to establishiin effect a single rocker-arm element 31. Thi element 3! is apertured near its swinging end and there pivotally connected to the lower endof a link v38. The link 38is also shown as formed from a single piece-of bent and shapedround'wire, and such pivoting as at the bight of a loop bend at a central point along the length of the last-named wi-re. Said link 38 is suitably connected at its upper endto the traveller 36, for causing upward and downward movement of the latter according asthe digital receptors or eyes 30 and 3| are brought toward or moved away from each other.
The shield 33 is contoured as illustrated, and hence shaped to :lie snugly against the bottom forehead projection above the inward and downward-concave dip of theface toward the eye sockets, to preclude reaching'of the eyes by the used unguents and other materials; and-to prevent uncomfortable or complexion blemishing edge contacts anywhere against the forehead the said shield along its topcontinuity is'laterally curvilinearly rolled'over as at 39. As already-stated,-a salientfunction of the shield-33 is to-prevent mascara from reachingan eyebrow.
The new appliance may be used-as an eyelash curler, as during or following the application of Vaseline or the -like asa keratin softener or in preparation for or in conjunction withthe application of mascara, or evenif desired when using Vaseline or an equivalent ung'uent to soften up previously dried and cakedmascara to facilitate removal of the-sames imply, in the case of say an upper eyelash, "by placing the lower edge of the shield 33 over the rootportion of'the eyelash, 'and, with that eye widely opened to forwardly extend the eyelash, operating the digital receptors 30 and 3| to impart an u pward rise'to the traveller 36 for upthrust against the eyelash and so curl it by rolling it up over said lower edge of the shield 33.
The traveller 36 is longitudinally curvilinearly extended, and is of cup-shaped cross-section between its ends to provide, in addition to a bottom wall (analogous to the bottom wall 13 of 'Fig. 15) a higher front wall 40 anda lower rear wall 4| whereby the saidwall ll provides at its top a support -'f or the hereinafter explained platform rest of such an applicator as is forexampleshown in either of Figs. 4, .6 and 7, with said -wall M then presenting a positioning stop-for the lower span of the forward working face of said-applicator. Beyond these wallsr lfl and M, the opposite ends of the traveller are formed -into sleeves 42; these for slidably embracing the already menbeing shown as a stampinghaving atop platj form '44, a front wall 45, a slot andtabinterlock as indicated at 41 for said walls 45 and 56, and four C-curls'4l at top' and bottom of the opposite ends of the front wall 45 for securement of the device 43'to the upperend of thelink 38.
A pair of resilient gripper jaws 48. are anchored to and upstanding from the rear partof the platform wall 44, these jaws forme'dfa'nd 'estab-' lished, for instance, as indicated in Figs. 2fand 3.
The traveller 36 has the top. edge of its 'wall 4| formed with a pair of rearwardly extending tabs upon whichthe ends of the applicator, to be presently described, are 'to berestedto steady the same with relationto the traveller to'move therewith.
Three of the many possible applicators alter-- natively mountable onthe platform. Wall, and there g'rippable by the 'jawsv 48, are illustrated in Figs. 4-12 and 22-25.
Referring first specifically to Figs". 4 and s, this" applicator, 5|], incorporates, for its main carry-'- ing structure, which latter may"'well be molded of a suitable plastic,a main' arcuateportion, 5|, 3 this having a bottom flange52 for resting on the" tabs 1| and, rearwardly centrally offset from said main portion 5|, a combined attaching tongue and handle 53. The tongue 53 has finger tip receiving depressions 54.at top and bottom, and
said tongue is joined to the main portion 5|by a neck portion 55 shaped to be gripped between the jaws 48. The function of the said platform rest is to predeterminedly support the root or basal portion or portionsof thewo-rking in'stru mentality of instrumentalities :while allowing fo'rwardprojection of the working-portion orportions thereof. here shown as present are in the form of a single line of bristle tufts 56; the parts being so dimensioned, shaped and arranged that with this applicator in place on the top platform 45 of the device 43, and with the neck portion 55 gripped between the jaws 4B, the platform rest 52 will lie squarely on the top of the wall 4| and the forward edge of the platform rest will linearly abut the wall 40, of the traveller 36, thereby properly to project the working ends of the bristles.
The main arcuate portion 5| is also bent downward at its ends to conform to the shape of the traveller 36 and the bristle tufts 56 extend upward at an angle of substantially '60 degrees to be in proper operative position with relation to the top edge of the traveller.
The applicator 51 shown in Fig. 6 is, it will be noted, exactly like the applicator 50, except that projected above its platform rest corresponding to the platform rest 52 is a double line of bristle tufts 58 also extended upwards at an angle of substantially 30 degrees.
The applicator 59 of Figs. 7 and 8 is in all respects like the two applicators 5|] and 51, except that the concave face of the main portion 60 is provided therealong with a groove 6|, this groove being smoothly curvilinearly extended around the opposite ends of said main portion 60. Here the working instrumentality is shown as a sponge 52, for instance a cellulose-type fabricated sponge having a rounded working sur- The working" instrumentalities' were facet). this constitution ofthe" ,sa'i'd "spofigej being 5 desirable, because then the spongej-while having a good liquid absorbing capacityyis of rather ahigh degree'of elastic resistance to compression,
and consequently able to be quickly yet dependably securably, frictionally gripped in a keeper and crirn'ped' like the groove 62 when forced thereinto asshown in Fig.8.
The applicator as of Figs.'9-l2 is substantially" of the same shape and form as the three applicators just above described; and particularly isitjs'imilarto the applicator 59, in that main-5- portion 66. is attended by a groove 61-. Thisgroove, hdwevenextends also along the back or" convex face of said main portion 56. The work ing instrumentality-here included is shown' as a centrally "longitudinally bored rubber roll '68,; through which a flexible wire 69 is strung so 'as; to have projecting end portions.
trated.
Referring next to Still referring to Figs. l 3-l9, butwithspecial reference now to Figs. 16-18, here the traveller 36' is exactly like the, traveller 36, except that each of the two tabs corresponding to one of. the. tabs II has an aperture 74, these forv pro-- viding the keeperelements of a detentmeans: the complementary, elements of which could be;
depending studs with lower enlarged and;
rounded heads such as indicated at 15 in the case of the applicator A illustrated in Figs. 1'7 and 18, and which applicator, although shown: as having a single line of bristle tufts T like: the applicator of Fig. 4, may be assumed to bethat particular applicator out of several differ-- ent ones at hand which at any time could be selected for special use, and for use in combination with the accompanying employment of an; instrumentality 12 corresponding to the working instrumentality 12.
Fig. 19 is presented for further making clear" the places conjointly in the assembly of the two applicators referred to in the last preceding paragraph, with one of them for purposes of illustra tive depiction being assumed to be the applicator:
A--and being here so markedwhether the trav-- eller used, be that of Fig. 14 or that of Fig. 16.. Hence, in Fig. 19, with the working instru-- mentality other than that carried by said ap-- plicator A marked 12 the traveller is marked 35..
Referring finally to the auxiliary device of" Figs. 20 and 21, the main portion 16 thereof corresponds functionally per se to the main arcu-- ately extended portion of any one of the working-instrumentality-carrying structure of any one of the applicators hereinabove described; and, while a tongue portion corresponding to the tongue portion 53 is omitted, there is a sub-- stitute for the latter comprised of an elongate direct-manual-grasp handle portion 11 extended.
