DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] To further illustrate, examples detailing a cosmetic brush are described below. It should be noted that the following examples are intended to describe and not to limit the description.

[0027] As shown in FIGS. 2-13, a cosmetic brush comprises a main body 1, a front cover 2, a rear cover, a brush assembly, a piston 7. The main body 1 comprises a front part and a rear part. The front cover is disposed on the front part and the rear cover is disposed on the rear part. The main body 1 comprises a liquid storage cavity 3 (the capital letter A represents the length of the liquid storage cavity) disposed between the front part and the rear part. The brush assembly is disposed in the front part. The piston 7 is disposed in the rear part. The brush assembly and the piston are disposed at two ends of the liquid storage cavity 3, respectively. The rear cover 8 is rotatably disposed relative to main body 1. The rear cover 8 is provided with a rear cover sleeve 9. The rear cover sleeve 9 is fixed on the rear cover 8 axially and radially.

[0028] The rear cover 8 comprises a threaded rod 10 and at least one threaded sleeve. The threaded rod comprises a first end and a second end. The threaded sleeve can be one or more as needed. The first end of the threaded rod abuts against the piston, and the second end of the threaded rod is in threaded connection to the at least one threaded sleeve. When a plurality of threaded sleeves is provided, the threaded sleeves are telescopic and are hinged to one another via screw threads, and the second end of the threaded rod is in threaded connection to the innermost threaded sleeve. The outermost threaded sleeve is in threaded connection to the rear cover. The at least one threaded sleeve is unable to rotate along with the rear cover circumferentially.

[0029] The outermost threaded rod comprises a plurality of axially-distributed grooves (not shown in the figures), and the rear cover comprises a plurality of axially-distributed ribs (not shown in the figures) corresponding to the grooves. This prevents the rotation of the at least one threaded sleeve along with the rear cover circumferentially. The piston comprises a polygonal depression 18. The first end of the threaded rod comprises a polygonal terminal 19 corresponding to the polygonal depression 18. The polygonal terminal 19 is inserted and clamped in the polygonal depression 18, thus preventing the threaded rod from revolving on its axis circumferentially. The threaded rod can only move axially.

[0030] The brush assembly comprises a liquid conveying pipe 4 communicating with the liquid storage cavity, a brush hair 5 encircling the liquid conveying pipe, and a brush sleeve 6 sleeving the brush hair. Optionally, the brush assembly can be in other forms, for example, comprise an applicator.

[0031] The second end of the threaded rod comprises a first protruding connector 12 comprising first external screws 13; the inner surface of the threaded sleeve comprises first internal screws 14 (the capital letter C represents the axial length of the first internal screws) corresponding to the first external screws 13. The threaded rod engages with the threaded sleeve via the first external screws and the first internal screws.

[0032] The threaded sleeve comprises a second protruding connector 15 comprising second external screws 16; the inner surface of the rear cover comprises second internal screws 17 (the capital letter B represents the axial length of the second internal screws) corresponding to the second external screws 16. The threaded sleeve engages with the rear cover via the second external screws and the second internal screws.

[0033] The rear cover 8 comprises a plurality of circumferentially-disposed ratchets 20. The ratchets 20 are disposed between the main body and the rear cover, and can prevent the rear cover from rotating reversely.

[0034] When in use, clockwise rotate the rear cover sleeve 9, the rear cover 8 rotates with the rear cover sleeve 9, and the threaded sleeve 11 and the threaded rod 10 move in the rear cover to push the piston to move in the liquid storage cavity 3, as shown in FIG. 4. The cosmetic liquid is squeezed out. When the moving distance of the piston equals to the length B of the second internal screws of the rear cover, the piston temporarily stops moving. Continue clockwise rotating the rear cover sleeve 9, the threaded sleeve 11 rotates synchronously, the threaded rod 10 moves axially in the threaded sleeve 11, to push the piston to continue moving in the liquid storage cavity 3 until the moving distance of the piston reaches the length C of the first internal screws 14 of the threaded sleeve, as shown in FIG. 5. Thus, the cosmetic liquid is completely squeezed out.

[0035] Optionally, the threaded sleeve can be one or more. When two or three threaded sleeves are employed, compared with conventional cosmetic brushes with the same height and diameters as that of the cosmetic brush of the embodiment, the threaded sleeves of the cosmetic brush of the embodiment occupy less space but have larger extension distance, so that the storage capacity of the cosmetic brush is greatly increased.

[0036] It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made, and therefore, the aim in the appended claims is to cover all such changes and modifications.
