Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1a to 16, a mascara according to the present invention is configured to include disk plates 10 to 50 on which combs 11 to 51 and brushes 12 to 52 are formed to be radially protruded along the outer circumferential surfaces thereof; and a predetermined stacking means by which a plurality of single disk plates 10 to 50 are coupled to be stacked.

Describing a first embodiment of the mascara, as shown in FIGS. 1a to 8, the disk plate 10 is a disk shape of which the center is formed with a through hole 10a and a stacking means corresponding thereto is configured of a core bar 15 that is penetrated to be fixed to the through hole 10a of the disk plate 10 to stack the plurality of disk plates 10.

Herein, the inner circumferential surfaces of the central through holes 10b to 10e of the disk plate 10 may be an asymmetric structure in an irregular oval shape or may be formed in a cross shape or a plurality of saw-toothed structures and a polygonal surface where the inner circumferential surface of the through hole is subdivided at a fine angle. However, the inner circumferential surface is not limited thereto, but may be formed in various shapes.

As shown in FIG. 7, the comb 11 and the brush 12 on the disk plate 10 are formed by a double injection molding.

At this time, the comb 11 may be a single comb structure that is integrally formed and otherwise, a multi-comb structure that is formed in one or more comb.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the disk plate 10 can be formed by a multi-injection molding so that it has different colors by forming a portion including the comb 11 and the brush 12 or by dividing it into halves or generally has various colors by making several pieces have different colors.

The protrusion length of the comb 11 and the brush 12 on the outer circumferential surface of each disk plate 10 is different, such that they may be formed in a taper structure where the protrusion length becomes short as going to the up direction where the disk plate 10 is stacked.

The shape of the comb 11 and the brush 12 may be formed variously.

In the present invention, as one example, the end of the comb 11 is a rounded cylindrical shape and the end of the brush 12 is formed in a sharp needle shape.

As shown in FIG. 2b, the brush 12 may be formed to be extended in a branch shape from the outer circumferential surface of the disk plate or formed so that another branch shape is continuously extended from the branch. In addition, the outer circumferential surfaces of the comb and the brush are coated, making it possible to add a predetermined coating layer.

It is natural that the plurality of disk plates 10 are stacked on the core bar 15 and then, a predetermined separation preventing means (not shown) is finally provided to prevent the disk plates 10 at the edge from separating to the outside of the core bar 15. Meanwhile, the double injection molding of the comb and the brush will be briefly described below.

The mascara according to a first embodiment of the present invention is formed by stacking the plurality of disk plates 10. The disk plate 10 is a disk structure of which the center is formed with a through hole 10a and is manufactured together with the brush by a primary injection molding in a state where a portion of the disk plate is incomplete and the comb 11 is subjected to a secondary injection molding using a material different from that of the brush 12.

Herein, the double injection is performed in sequence that the brush 12 is first molded and the comb is then molded. On the contrary, the injection molding sequence can be adjusted so that the comb 11 is first molded and the brush 12 is then molded.

As such, the injection method using different materials is referred to as the double injection. Herein, describing the double injection in more detail, the double injection performs the molding by filling secondary resin in a space between a secondary cavity and a primary molding product earliest molded by using two injection devices using two or more different resins or resins of two different colors and an injector having a structure where a movable plate are installed with a rotation mechanism or a mold designed to be able to perform the double injection using a core or a slide structure.

Using the double injection, a shape of a product is less limited since the primary side cavity and the secondary side cavity are accurately replaced and the width of product application is wide such that the design of the product can be various. Further, the general injection according to the related art manufactures a product by molding it with two parts twice and performing a secondary processing such as a welding process or a coating process, while the double injection manufactures a product by molding it at a time, such that it has advantages in reducing cost as well as manufacturing the products of various designs.
