Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cosmetic container, and more particularly to a cosmetic container that contains a cosmetic product and is easy to operate.
  • a conventional cosmetic container has a body, a press-type nozzle, and a pipe.
  • the body has a chamber to contain a fluid-type cosmetic product.
  • An opening is formed in the body and is in communication with the chamber of the body.
  • the press-type nozzle is mounted on the opening of the body.
  • the pipe is mounted on the press-type nozzle and is located in the chamber of the body. The press-type nozzle can be pressed and the fluid-type cosmetic product in the body is drawn out of the press-type nozzle via the pipe.
  • a cap is mounted on the press-type nozzle to avoid the fluid-type cosmetic product from exposure to air and deteriorating.
  • the operation of the cosmetic container requires removing and retrieving the cap, but the cap is prone to loss. Therefore, the operation of the cosmetic container is inconvenient. If the cap is lost, the fluid-type cosmetic product in the body is not properly sealed and deteriorates easily. When the fluid-type cosmetic product is dispensed through the pipe, a part of the fluid-type cosmetic product easily remains in an inner surface of the body and is hard to be fully dispensed for use.
  • FR2686002 discloses another type of cosmetic container wherein a bottle is retractable inside a sleeve. To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention tends to provide a cosmetic container to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
  • the main objective of the invention is to provide a cosmetic container that is easy to operate.
  • the cosmetic container has a first sleeve, a driving assembly, a bottle and a second sleeve.
  • the driving assembly is mounted in the first sleeve and has a first rotating tube, a seat and a second rotating tube.
  • the first rotating tube is coactively mounted in the first sleeve and has an outer surface, an annular flange and multiple chutes.
  • the annular flange is formed on the outer surface of the first rotating tube.
  • the chutes are formed through the outer surface of the first rotating tube.
  • Each chute has a slanting section and a transverse section connected to a top end of the slanting section.
  • the seat is moveably mounted in the first rotating tube and has multiple protrusions respectively protruding into the chutes of the first rotating tube.
  • the second rotating tube is rotatably mounted around the first rotating tube and has an inner surface, an annular groove, multiple longitudinal grooves, and a positioning ring.
  • the annular groove is formed in the inner surface and connected to the annular flange of the first rotating tube.
  • the longitudinal grooves are formed in the inner surface and the protrusions of the seat respectively protrude into the longitudinal grooves.
  • the positioning ring is formed on the inner surface and an internal diameter of the positioning ring is smaller than an internal diameter of the second rotating tube.
  • the positioning ring has a positioning surface formed on a top surface of the positioning ring.
  • the bottle is mounted in the seat of the driving assembly and has a body, a chamber, a piston, a vacuum valve, a cap and an outlet.
  • the body is mounted in the seat of the driving assembly and an outer diameter of the body is smaller than the internal diameter of the positioning ring.
  • the chamber is formed in the body.
  • the piston is mounted in the body and is moveably located in the chamber.
  • the vacuum valve is mounted on the body.
  • the cap is mounted on the vacuum valve and a bottom surface of the cap faces the positioning surface of the positioning ring.
  • the outlet is formed in the cap and sunk in the second rotating tube.
  • the second sleeve is coactively mounted on the second rotating tube of the driving assembly.
  • the first sleeve is rotated to drive the first rotating tube.
  • the protrusions of the seat move along the chutes of the first rotating tube and the longitudinal grooves of the second rotating tube, and then the seat drives the bottle to move upward and downward. Therefore, the cosmetic container can be operated conveniently.
  • the cap of the bottle protrudes out of the second rotating tube, and then users can press the cap for driving the vacuum valve to generate a vacuum suction.
  • the piston moves upward to push out a cosmetic product in the body by the vacuum suction. So the cosmetic product stored in the body is easy to be dispensed.
  • the cap is sunk in the second rotating tube and the outlet is closed by the second rotating tube. So the cosmetic product in the body is stored in a proper condition.
  • the piston can push out and dispense the cosmetic product in the body effectively. Therefore, the quantity of the cosmetic product remaining in an inner surface of the body is decreased.
  • the outer diameter of the body is smaller than the internal diameter of the positioning ring. Therefore, the bottle is easy to be changed for replacement.
  • a cosmetic container in accordance with the present invention comprises a first sleeve 10, a driving assembly 1, a bottle 50 and a second sleeve 60.
  • the first sleeve 10 has a space 11 and an opening.
  • the space 11 is formed in the first sleeve 10.
