- the impregnation material may be designed to have a width required to allow the impregnation material to be disposed in the container of the cosmetic product in a state in which the impregnation material cannot be moved.
- the above-mentioned arrangement of the impregnation material may contribute to preventing leakage of the liquid cosmetic material with which the impregnation material is impregnated or which is present in a separated state in the container.
- the width of the rim portion of the impregnation material may be 0.5 mm or more, and particularly, 1 to 3 mm.
- FIGS. 6A and 6B are a view schematically illustrating a three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- a three-dimensional fabric has a surface structure in which weaving density varies locally.
- a three-dimensional fabric impregnation material 200 includes a first surface 210 and a second surface 220 opposite to the first surface 210, and the first surface 210 and the second surface 220 of the fabric impregnation material 200 have, at central portions thereof, shapes convex upward and downward, respectively. Meanwhile, a height of the fabric impregnation material 200 is gradually decreased toward the rim, and the first surface 210 and the second surface 220 are in close contact with each other at the rim of the fabric impregnation material 200, such that a rim portion 230 is formed to extend around an outer circumference of the fabric impregnation material 200.
- opening hole portions A are formed in the first surface 210 of the impregnation material 200 illustrated in FIGS. 6A and 6B .
- the opening hole portions A may be repeatedly arranged periodically or irregularly in the surface of the three-dimensional fabric.
- the opening hole portions A formed in the first surface are illustrated as being present to be spaced apart from one another, but at least some of the opening hole portions A may be continuously connected to one another.
- FIG. 8 is an illustrative cross-sectional view illustrating a vertically layered structure at a central portion of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material in FIGS. 5A and 5B .
- the description will be made below while focusing on the fabric impregnation material illustrated in FIGS. 6A and 6B , but the impregnation material illustrated in FIG. 7 has the same vertically layered structure at the outer periphery as well as the central portion.
- the three-dimensional fabric is vertically layered and includes the surface structure which includes the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2, and the pillar region P which is provided between the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2.
- the first surface region S 1 has a woven pattern woven by using a warp yarn 240A, a filling yarn 240B, and a Z-yarn 250.
- the woven pattern of the first surface region S 1 may have a region in which weaving density locally varies, and as an example, the woven pattern may have a densely woven portion D which has dense weaving density, and opening hole portions A which are defined as non-woven portions.
- the second surface region S2 is woven averagely with uniform density and has no opening hole portion.
- the opening hole portion A may serve as a channel which opens the first surface 210 to make it easy to inject and/or discharge the cosmetic material. That is, the opening hole portion A makes it easy to fill the pillar region P with the liquid cosmetic material. Meanwhile, the opening hole portion A allows the cosmetic material, which fills the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material, to be easily discharged when the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material is pressed.
- average weaving density of the densely woven portion D of the first surface region S 1 may be designed to be higher than average weaving density of the second surface region S2. That is, when comparing the densely woven portion D, the opening hole portion A, and the second surface region, the respective regions are different in average weaving density from one another. That is, regarding the average weaving density of the surface, the relationship "Densely Woven Portion > Second Surface > Opening Hole Portion" may be defined.
- the entire first surface region S 1 and the entire second surface region S2 may of course be set to be equal to or different from each other in average weaving density.
- the multiple Z-yarns extend while traversing the pillar region P at predetermined angles.
- a traversing angle of the Z-yarn from the first surface region or the second surface region may be defined as an angle formed between a normal line to the surface of the surface region and the extension direction of the Z-yarn.
- the multiple Z-yarns may have various traversing angles. Particularly, the traversing angles of the multiple Z-yarns may range from 0 to 60 degrees.
- the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material 200 according to the present invention may be accommodated in the container main body of the cosmetic product in various manners.
- the impregnation material may be accommodated in the container main body of the cosmetic product so that the first surface 210 formed with the opening hole portions A becomes a bottom surface of the impregnation material.
- the impregnation material may be accommodated in the container main body so that the first surface becomes an exposed surface of the impregnation material.
- the former case is advantageous in that the cosmetic material is not excessively discharged from the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material 200.
- FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a vertically layered structure at a central portion of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- the three-dimensional fabric according to the present exemplary embodiment is vertically layered and includes the surface structure which includes the first surface region S 1 including the first surface 210 and the second surface region S2 including the second surface, and the pillar region P which is provided between the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2.
- the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 have opening hole portions A1 and A2, respectively.
- the opening hole portions A1 and A2 of the first and second surface regions S 1 and S2 may be formed at positions that vertically face one another, but may also be formed at positions that are staggered as illustrated.
- the opening hole portion A1 of the first surface region S1 and the opening hole portion A2 of the second surface region S2 may be equal to or different from each other in sizes of the opening hole portions defined to have average diameters.
- the size of the opening hole portion may be associated with injection and discharge of the liquid cosmetic material having viscosity. For example, the opening hole portion having a large size makes it easy to inject the liquid cosmetic material, and the opening hole portion having a small size makes it easy to inhibit an inadvertent discharge of the liquid cosmetic material.
- the opening hole portions having small sizes are arranged on the first surface, and the opening hole portions having relatively large sizes are arranged on the second surface, such that the second surface may be used to make it easy to inject the liquid cosmetic material, and the first surface may be used to prevent a liquid leakage of the liquid cosmetic material.
- opening hole portions A1 and A2 of the first and second surfaces may be different in number.
- the multiple opening hole portions A1 and A2 having small average diameters are advantageous in uniformly discharging the liquid cosmetic material from the surface.
- the above-mentioned three-dimensional fabric impregnation material may be manufactured by cutting out a three-dimensional raw fabric manufactured by three-dimensional weaving to a size of the container main body, and then forming the rim portion at the rim thereof.
- a method of forming the rim portions 130 and 230 of the three-dimensional impregnation materials will be described with reference to FIG. 8 .
- FIGS. 10A and 10B are a schematic view for explaining a method of manufacturing the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- upper and lower cutting dies 310 and 320 which correspond to an external shape of an impregnation material to be cut out, are prepared.
- the cutting die may be a cylindrical die that extends in a circumferential direction.

Description
- The present invention relates to a cosmetic product, and more particularly, to a cosmetic product impregnated with a liquid cosmetic material.
- Cosmetic materials are present in various forms such as solids and liquids, and it is common to use a liquid cosmetic material in a state in which the liquid cosmetic material is stored in a flexible container such as a tube in order to easily discharge the liquid cosmetic material while preventing a leakage of the liquid cosmetic material.
- Meanwhile, a cosmetic product is used, in which an impregnation material such as polyurethane foam is impregnated with a liquid cosmetic material having comparatively low or high viscosity and fluidity, and the polyurethane foam is pressed by using a tool such as a puff to discharge the cosmetic material with the puff coated with the cosmetic material.
- Such porous foam requires a separate process of forming a special pattern on an exposed surface of the porous foam in order to impart an aesthetic appearance when using the cosmetic product. For example, in a case in which the pattern on the surface is formed by using a heating and pressing method, shapes and sizes of pores in the foam are changed, which causes a problem in that channels through which the cosmetic material flows are inadvertently damaged.
- In addition, because the channels in the porous foam are formed by small pores, it is difficult to inject the cosmetic material when impregnating the porous foam with the cosmetic material.

-
FIG. 1 is a view schematically illustrating a cosmetic product according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - As illustrated, a
cosmetic product 10 has a containermain body 11 configured to accommodate a liquid cosmetic material. The containermain body 11 accommodates a three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 impregnated with the liquid cosmetic material. The cosmetic product may include aninner lid 13 and/or anouter lid 15 in order to prevent leakage of the liquid cosmetic material from thefabric impregnation material 100. In addition, although not illustrated, a fixing member configured to fix the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material may be further provided in order to prevent withdrawal of the three-dimensional woven fabric impregnation material. The fixing member will be described separately below. -
FIGS. 2A and 2B are a perspective view and a front view, respectively, schematically illustrating an external appearance of the fabric impregnation material according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - Referring to
FIGS. 2A and 2B , thefabric impregnation material 100 has afirst surface 110 and asecond surface 120. Thefirst surface 110 and thesecond surface 120 of thefabric impregnation material 100 have an upward convex shape and a downward convex shape, respectively. Meanwhile, a height of thefabric impregnation material 100 is decreased from a central portion toward an outer side, and a rim of thefabric impregnation material 100 is compressed, such that arim portion 130 having a rim shape is formed in a state in which thefirst surface 110 and thesecond surface 120 are substantially laminated.FIG. 3 is a view schematically illustrating a cosmetic product not according to the invention. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , unlikeFIGS. 1 and2 , thefabric impregnation material 100 of thecosmetic product 10 has no rim portion of a rim shape at an outer periphery thereof, and the first surface and the second surface are formed as flat surfaces. -
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view schematically illustrating a cross-sectional structure, while focusing on a central portion of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material inFIGS. 2A and 2B . Meanwhile, since thefabric impregnation material 100 inFIG. 3 has no rim portion, the outer peripheral portion as well as the central portion has the cross-sectional structure inFIG. 3 . - In the present invention, the three-dimensional
fabric impregnation material 120 may be woven by using a series of filaments including warp yarns, filling yarns, and Z-yarns. In the present invention, the number of filaments used to weave the three-dimensional woven fabric impregnation material is not particularly limited. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 has thefirst surface 110 and thesecond surface 120 which are substantially flat. - In addition, the three-dimensional
fabric impregnation material 100 is vertically layered and includes a surface structure, which includes a first surface region S1 including the first surface and having a predetermined thickness and a second surface region S2 including the second surface and having a predetermined thickness, and a pillar region P between the two surface regions. In the drawing, the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 are illustrated as having a woven fabric pattern having a single layer, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and each of the surface regions may have two or more layers. In addition,FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrates the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material woven by using three filaments, but the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material may be woven by using three or more filaments, for example, five, seven, or any number of filaments. - In
FIG. 4 , each of the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 has a predetermined thickness and has a woven pattern made by weaving with awarp yarn 140A, a fillingyarn 140B, and a Z-yarn 150. - In the drawing, relative sizes such as lengths or thicknesses of the
warp yarn 140A, the fillingyarn 140B, and the Z-yarn 150 are defined for convenience of illustration, and thewarp yarn 140A, the fillingyarn 140B, and the Z-yarn 150 are not scaled to actual sizes. In addition, in the drawing, each of the warp yarn, the filling yarn, and the Z-yarn is illustrated as having a single fiber filament, but each of the warp yarn, the filling yarn, and the Z-yarn may be implemented by a bundle of filaments made by twisting fine fibers. In addition, a weaving method for forming the woven pattern is schematically illustrated in the drawing, and various possible weaving methods may be applied to form the woven pattern according to the present invention. - Referring back to
FIG. 4 , the Z-yarn 150 extends between the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 while connecting the first surface region and the second surface region, thereby forming a pillar region P. As an example, the pillar region P may be implemented only by the Z-yarn without using the warp yarn or the filling yarn. - In the present invention, the multiple Z-yarns may traverse the pillar region P while having a predetermined angle with respect to a normal line to the surface region.
- The pillar region P provides an accommodation space for accommodating the liquid cosmetic material and supports the surface structure including the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2. Particularly, the Z-yarn for forming the pillar region P is implemented by the filaments having appropriate rigidity and/or elasticity, such that the Z-yarn may have restoring force against deformation caused by a pressure within a predetermined range applied to the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2. In addition, the Z-yarn may be made by using the filament having a thickness different from a thickness of the filament of the
warp yarn 140A and the fillingyarn 140B in the first and second surface regions S 1 and S2. For example, the Z-yarn may have a larger thickness (denier) than the warp yarn and the filling yarn in order to ensure higher supporting force. In addition, some or the entirety of the filaments used for three-dimensional weaving may be implemented as filaments made by twisting superfine fibers in order to improve a contact property when a user touches the filaments. - In the present invention, the liquid cosmetic material is mainly absorbed into the pillar region P even though a part of the liquid cosmetic material is absorbed into the surface regions, and the impregnation amount is determined depending on a thickness of the yarn, density of the yarn, and a thickness of the pillar region. Considering that the thickness of the surface region is very small, the thickness of the pillar region P may be practically and substantially equal to a depth of the accommodation space of the container main body. In the present invention, the thickness of the pillar region may be 5 to 30 mm, and more particularly, 5 to 15 mm. In addition, the thickness of the pillar region P needs to be much larger than the thickness of each of the surface regions S1 and S2, and the thickness of the pillar region P may be at least five to ten or more times the thickness of the surface region S 1 or S2.
- In
FIG. 4 , the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 are illustrated as having substantially the same weaving density, but the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2 may have different weaving density. - In addition, in the present invention, the weaving density may locally vary even in one of the surface regions S 1 and S2, or a predetermined woven pattern may be formed by using filaments having different colors or by applying different weaving methods, and as a result, a surface pattern of the impregnation material may be formed. Here, the weaving density may be defined as the number of strands of the warp yarn, the filling yarn, and the Z-yarn per unit area in the first surface or the second surface.
- In the illustrated exemplary embodiment, the filaments of the Z-yarn in the pillar region P are illustrated as vertically extending straight, but the filament of the Z-yarn may of course be formed in a shape curved by a self-weight, external force, or artificial force. In addition, the multiple filaments of the Z-yarns for forming the pillar region P are illustrated as extending in substantially parallel with each other, but the multiple filaments of the Z-yarns may extend while intersecting each other.
-
FIGS. 5A and 5B are a view illustrating various shapes of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention when viewed from the front side. - First, referring to
FIG. 5A , the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 includes thefirst surface 110 which is substantially flat, and thesecond surface 120 which has a central portion that protrudes convexly downward. The three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 includes therim portion 130 which is formed around an outer circumference of the impregnation material and compressed to the extent to which thefirst surface 110 and thesecond surface 120 are almost in contact with each other. In therim portion 130, the pillar region P illustrated inFIG. 4 is compressed and collapsed, such that the pillar region P is considered as occupying substantially no space. In the present invention, therim portion 130 may continuously extend around the circumference of the impregnation material, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and therim portion 130 may extend intermittently around the circumference of the impregnation material. - Next, referring to
FIG. 5B , thefirst surface 110 and thesecond surface 120 of the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 have lens shapes that protrude upward and downward, respectively, the thickness of the impregnation material is gradually decreased toward a rim of the impregnation material, thereby forming therim portion 130. - In the present invention, the
rim portion 130 may have an appropriate width w. In the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, coupling force between the first surface and the second surface at therim portion 130 may be determined depending on the width of therim portion 130. The impregnation material having the rim portion having a large width provides high coupling force, such that the shape of the impregnation material may be structurally and stably maintained. In addition, as described below, in consideration of an arrangement structure in the cosmetic product, the impregnation material may be designed to have a width required to allow the impregnation material to be disposed in the container of the cosmetic product in a state in which the impregnation material cannot be moved. Meanwhile, the above-mentioned arrangement of the impregnation material may contribute to preventing leakage of the liquid cosmetic material with which the impregnation material is impregnated or which is present in a separated state in the container. As an example, in the present invention, the width of the rim portion of the impregnation material may be 0.5 mm or more, and particularly, 1 to 3 mm. -
FIGS. 6A and 6B are a view schematically illustrating a three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 6A and 6wB, a three-dimensional fabric has a surface structure in which weaving density varies locally. A three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 200 includes afirst surface 210 and asecond surface 220 opposite to thefirst surface 210, and thefirst surface 210 and thesecond surface 220 of thefabric impregnation material 200 have, at central portions thereof, shapes convex upward and downward, respectively. Meanwhile, a height of thefabric impregnation material 200 is gradually decreased toward the rim, and thefirst surface 210 and thesecond surface 220 are in close contact with each other at the rim of thefabric impregnation material 200, such that arim portion 230 is formed to extend around an outer circumference of thefabric impregnation material 200. - Unlike the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material described with reference to
FIGS. 2A and 2B , multiple opening hole portions A are formed in thefirst surface 210 of theimpregnation material 200 illustrated inFIGS. 6A and 6B . The opening hole portions A may be repeatedly arranged periodically or irregularly in the surface of the three-dimensional fabric. In addition, the opening hole portions A formed in the first surface are illustrated as being present to be spaced apart from one another, but at least some of the opening hole portions A may be continuously connected to one another. -
FIG. 8 is an illustrative cross-sectional view illustrating a vertically layered structure at a central portion of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material inFIGS. 5A and 5B . The description will be made below while focusing on the fabric impregnation material illustrated inFIGS. 6A and 6B , but the impregnation material illustrated inFIG. 7 has the same vertically layered structure at the outer periphery as well as the central portion. - Referring to
FIG. 8 , the three-dimensional fabric is vertically layered and includes the surface structure which includes the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2, and the pillar region P which is provided between the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2. - The first surface region S 1 has a woven pattern woven by using a
warp yarn 240A, a fillingyarn 240B, and a Z-yarn 250. The woven pattern of the first surface region S 1 may have a region in which weaving density locally varies, and as an example, the woven pattern may have a densely woven portion D which has dense weaving density, and opening hole portions A which are defined as non-woven portions. In contrast, the second surface region S2 is woven averagely with uniform density and has no opening hole portion. - In the present exemplary embodiment, the opening hole portion A may serve as a channel which opens the
first surface 210 to make it easy to inject and/or discharge the cosmetic material. That is, the opening hole portion A makes it easy to fill the pillar region P with the liquid cosmetic material. Meanwhile, the opening hole portion A allows the cosmetic material, which fills the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material, to be easily discharged when the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material is pressed. - In the present invention, it is possible to implement a surface pattern having an aesthetic appearance by appropriately combining shapes, sizes, arrangement positions, and/or the number of opening hole portions A.
- In addition, in the present invention, average weaving density of the densely woven portion D of the first surface region S 1 may be designed to be higher than average weaving density of the second surface region S2. That is, when comparing the densely woven portion D, the opening hole portion A, and the second surface region, the respective regions are different in average weaving density from one another. That is, regarding the average weaving density of the surface, the relationship "Densely Woven Portion > Second Surface > Opening Hole Portion" may be defined.
- In addition, in the present exemplary embodiment, the entire first surface region S 1 and the entire second surface region S2 may of course be set to be equal to or different from each other in average weaving density.
- Meanwhile, as illustrated in
FIG. 8 , in the present invention, the multiple Z-yarns extend while traversing the pillar region P at predetermined angles. In this case, a traversing angle of the Z-yarn from the first surface region or the second surface region may be defined as an angle formed between a normal line to the surface of the surface region and the extension direction of the Z-yarn. In the present invention, the multiple Z-yarns may have various traversing angles. Particularly, the traversing angles of the multiple Z-yarns may range from 0 to 60 degrees. - The three-dimensional
fabric impregnation material 200 according to the present invention, which has been described above with reference toFIGS. 6 to 8 , may be accommodated in the container main body of the cosmetic product in various manners. The impregnation material may be accommodated in the container main body of the cosmetic product so that thefirst surface 210 formed with the opening hole portions A becomes a bottom surface of the impregnation material. On the contrary, the impregnation material may be accommodated in the container main body so that the first surface becomes an exposed surface of the impregnation material. The former case is advantageous in that the cosmetic material is not excessively discharged from the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 200. -
FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a vertically layered structure at a central portion of the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - Referring to
FIG. 9 , like the above-mentioned three-dimensional fabric impregnation material, the three-dimensional fabric according to the present exemplary embodiment is vertically layered and includes the surface structure which includes the first surface region S 1 including thefirst surface 210 and the second surface region S2 including the second surface, and the pillar region P which is provided between the first surface region S 1 and the second surface region S2. - Unlike
FIG. 8 , in the exemplary embodiment illustrated inFIG. 9 , the first surface region S1 and the second surface region S2 have opening hole portions A1 and A2, respectively. The opening hole portions A1 and A2 of the first and second surface regions S 1 and S2 may be formed at positions that vertically face one another, but may also be formed at positions that are staggered as illustrated. - In addition, in
FIG. 9 , the opening hole portion A1 of the first surface region S1 and the opening hole portion A2 of the second surface region S2 may be equal to or different from each other in sizes of the opening hole portions defined to have average diameters. The size of the opening hole portion may be associated with injection and discharge of the liquid cosmetic material having viscosity. For example, the opening hole portion having a large size makes it easy to inject the liquid cosmetic material, and the opening hole portion having a small size makes it easy to inhibit an inadvertent discharge of the liquid cosmetic material. Therefore, for example, the opening hole portions having small sizes are arranged on the first surface, and the opening hole portions having relatively large sizes are arranged on the second surface, such that the second surface may be used to make it easy to inject the liquid cosmetic material, and the first surface may be used to prevent a liquid leakage of the liquid cosmetic material. - In addition, the opening hole portions A1 and A2 of the first and second surfaces may be different in number. The multiple opening hole portions A1 and A2 having small average diameters are advantageous in uniformly discharging the liquid cosmetic material from the surface.
- In the present invention, the above-mentioned three-dimensional fabric impregnation material may be manufactured by cutting out a three-dimensional raw fabric manufactured by three-dimensional weaving to a size of the container main body, and then forming the rim portion at the rim thereof. Hereinafter, an example of a method of forming the
rim portions FIG. 8 . -
FIGS. 10A and 10B are a schematic view for explaining a method of manufacturing the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - First, referring to
FIG. 10A , upper and lower cutting dies 310 and 320, which correspond to an external shape of an impregnation material to be cut out, are prepared. For example, the cutting die may be a cylindrical die that extends in a circumferential direction. As illustrated inFIG. 8 , acutter 312 and a catchingprojection 314 are provided at a lower end of theupper die 310. - When an impregnation material raw fabric 100' is supplied between the illustrated cutting dies 310 and 320, the upper cutting die moves downward to cut the raw fabric. As illustrated in FIG. 8B, this structure may cut the impregnation material raw fabric 100' to a predetermined size and compress the first surface and the second surface at a cut end. The upper die is heated during the cutting process, and thus the catching projection 214 of the upper die heats and presses the impregnation material raw fabric, such that the raw fabric is melted or softened and compressed, thereby forming the rim portion at the corresponding position. In this case, the first surface region, the pillar region, and the second surface region, which define the vertically layered structure, are collapsed and compressed as the raw fabric is heated and pressed. This method may manufacture the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material having the shape illustrated in
FIG. 6A . - Meanwhile,
FIG. 11 is a schematic view for explaining a method of manufacturing the three-dimensional fabric impregnation material according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - The
lower die 320 of the upper and lower cutting dies 310 and 320 illustrated inFIG. 11 has a cylindrical shape that corresponds to the upper die, and as a result, the impregnation material may be manufactured such that the cut-out impregnation material has a shape convex upward and downward. - IGS. 12A and 12B are a view illustrating an example of the cosmetic product including the impregnation material according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 12A is a schematic view illustrating a state in which the cosmetic product is disassembled, andFIG. 12B is a schematic view illustrating a state in which the cosmetic product is assembled. - Referring to
FIGS. 12A and12B , the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 is accommodated on the containermain body 11 configured to accommodate the impregnation material. An impregnationmaterial fixing member 17, which has anopening 19 at a central portion thereof, is mounted on the three-dimensionalfabric impregnation material 100 to prevent withdrawal of the fabric impregnation material. - The above-mentioned rim portion of the impregnation material according to the present invention protects the pillar region in the impregnation material from the outside, such that it is possible to inhibit a discharge of filament scraps which are produced when cutting out the fabric impregnation material or when using the cosmetic material.
-
FIGS. 13A and13B are captured photographs of cut-out impregnation materials, in whichFIG. 13A is the captured photograph of the impregnation material cut out without a rim portion, andFIG. 13B is the captured photograph of the impregnation material having a rim portion. - First, referring to the photographs at the upper and lower sides in
FIG. 13A , it can be seen that three-dimensional fabric foam has different surface structures and has a coarse rim having threads and scraps produced due to the cutting process. However, referring toFIG. 13B , it can be seen that the compressed rim portion is formed along the rim of the impregnation material to be cut out, such that the cut-out impregnation material has a clear rim without causing a break of a filament at a cut portion or producing threads. -
FIGS. 14A and 14B are captured photographs of cosmetic products manufactured by using three-dimensional fabric foam inFIG. 11 . -
FIG. 14A illustrates a state in which the impregnation material is accommodated in the container main body such that a woven fabric pattern surface having coarse opening hole portions is exposed upward, andFIG. 14B illustrates a state in which the impregnation material is accommodated in the container main body such that a woven fabric surface having fine opening hole portions is exposed upward. - While the present invention has been described above with reference to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the above-mentioned description is provided just for illustrating the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. It should be considered by those skilled in the art that various modifications may be made without departing from the appended claims.
