Definitions

  • the invention relates to a utility container for a cosmetic pencil, such as a lip balm, with a sleeve-shaped container housing open at one end, which has in its wall a slot extending in the axial direction, through which a slide switch is guided to the outside, with a within the container housing slidably arranged train and pressure tape is connected, which has at one end a socket for receiving the cosmetic stick and the other end serves to seal the container housing, and arranged in the container housing means by which the tension and compression band within the container housing in a Loop is deflected by 180 °.
  • a cosmetic pencil such as a lip balm
  • Utility containers for cosmetic sticks consisting of the actual container and a mechanical device for conveying the cosmetic stick out of the container for use are known in various embodiments and mechanisms. Emphasis is placed on safe storage of the cosmetic pen when not in use, ease of use for the use of the cosmetic pen and a simple and cost-effective production and assembly of the individual components.
  • a lipstick is described with a arranged in a housing with cap make-up, in which the make-up pencil for use by means of a threaded rod can be moved out of the housing upwards.
  • the make-up pin holder is releasably connected to the housing.
  • a cosmetic pencil device with a base attached to a cosmetic pencil, wherein the base has a central guide with an internal thread and a sleeve with a rotatably mounted pin with external thread, with the internal thread of the guide the socket cooperates to axially displace the cosmetic pencil within the sleeve.
  • Such a lipstick is known from DE 43 42 238 C1.
  • the lipstick consists of a pin housing, a sliding mechanism for extending and retracting the pin and a cap for covering the insertion or insertion opening on the pin receiving housing.
  • Cap and pin-receiving housing are pivotally connected to each other, wherein the cap in a pivotal position covers the insertion or insertion opening and in the other pivotal position releases this opening.
  • the cap is designed as a holding part to which the lipstick is gripped.
  • German Offenlegungsschrift DT 2 261 892 discloses a use container for cosmetic pens in which a socket receiving the pin is attached to a flexible band which is guided in a guide device in an outer sleeve consisting of two housing halves and has a grip part. which can be gripped through a slot in the outer sleeve from the outside of the sleeve forth.
  • the free, not connected to the socket end of the flexible band forms the closure part, so that the width of the band must correspond to the inner diameter of the sleeve.
  • the flexible band is deflected at the bottom of the sleeve in a loop by 180 °, so that during the downward movement of the handle part of the cosmetic pen is guided upwards.
  • a disadvantage of this known utility container is its two-part design of the outer sleeve.
  • the two housing halves of the sleeve are brought together and the flexible band must be introduced into the guides, faults often occur when the flexible band is not exactly fitted into the guides.
  • a one-piece Schminkstoring matterser is known with a rectangular cross-section, in the container housing with upper application opening a rectangular tube with rounded bottom surface having on both sides a sliding guide, which also surrounds the rounded bottom surface, is housed as a guide body for a resilient steel strip ,
  • a cup for receiving the make-up pin is slidably disposed and connected to one end of a resilient steel strip, which is guided by the sliding guide with a screw.
  • At the other end of the steel strip is a through a slot of the container outwardly guided slide, which is connected to the outside of the housing via a hinge with a hinged lid to the closure of the make-up pen container.
  • the lid is arranged and designed so that it can be used as a handle key to move the steel strip and thus the make-up pin folded down.
  • US Pat. No. 5,984,551 A discloses a make-up pencil container with a container housing containing an upper application opening into which a tube with a circular cross-section is introduced as a guide body for a tension and compression band.
  • This guide body is provided at its lower end with an arcuate sliding guide
  • the tension and compression band has at one end a socket for receiving the make-up pin and is connected at the opposite end via a hinge with a larger tab, which serves to seal the guide body on the upper opening - This while overlapping laterally - can be pushed.
  • FR 663 721 and the lower end of the container housing is open and has such a large opening that can be inserted from below into the container housing for mounting the guide body and the tension and compression band. After installation, this opening is closed by a lid.
  • the assembly of the construction elements to the ready-to-use container is quick and easy to carry out, since the tension and pressure band not in Guide elements must be adjusted.
  • the cosmetic stick is introduced into the socket only after the assembly has taken place, the delivery of the empty use container for filling with the cosmetic pencil usually taking place in a center position of the sliding button in the slot. Since the tension and pressure band below the socket between the guide body and centrally disposed on the inner wall of the container housing side webs is slidably guided over its entire length, there is no risk that the pull and pressure band when inserting the cosmetic pen in the socket can buckle due to the pressing pressure.
  • bottom webs which are arranged in the bottom of the container housing and whose contour are adapted to the lower end of the guide body, so that the tension and compression band between the bottom webs and the lower End of the guide body is guided by both sides.
  • the tension and compression band is formed so long beyond the slide switch that its front tongue-shaped end can close the opening of the container housing in the displacement of the sliding switch upwards.
  • a lateral slot is formed below an annular collar of the guide body, then passes through the tongue-shaped end of the tension and pressure band.
  • the tension and compression band can fulfill its intended tasks, it is made of a flexible material, preferably of a flexible material Made of plastic.
  • Figures 1, 2 and 3 are the perspective view of the individual construction elements, from which an exemplary container for use cosmetic pencil is put together, shown.
  • the container housing 10 shown in Figure 1 has at about 180 ° of its circumference a cylindrical outer surface 17, which is opposite to a substantially flat outer surface 18.
  • a slot 11 which begins above the bottom 15 and leads to the open upper end face 14 of the container housing 10.
  • the open end face 14 is inclined towards the axis of the container housing 10 for better handling of the cosmetic pen passing through this end face 14.
  • webs 12, 13 are arranged to stabilize the container housing (webs 12) and to guide the tension and compression band 20 (side bars 13).
  • the tension and compression band 20 is shown in FIG. It is made in one piece from a flexible material and has at one end a socket 21 for receiving the cosmetic pencil (2, Fig. 7) and a tongue-shaped closure of the other end 23 for closing the container housing 10. Below the tongue-shaped end 23 is located a sliding switch 22 which is connected to the tension and compression band 20 via a nose (the nose is not shown), which is inserted into the slot 11 of the container housing 10, so that when inserted in the container housing 10 tensile and compressive strip 20 by this the remaining outside of the container housing 10 slide switch 22 can be moved.
