Abstract
A paper container for cosmetic products is provided with a casing made of cardboard and including a cover, a base, and an intermediate section hingedly interconnected to the cover and the base; a flap made of paper and being partially attached to an inner surface of the cover; a receiving member made of cardboard attached to a top of the base and including at least one receptacle and a groove on a front end of a bottom wherein the flap is configured to insert into the groove; and a through hole disposed through the base and the receptacle.
Description
- The invention relates cosmetic containers and more particularly to a paper container for cosmetic products by providing a through hole through a base so that a cosmetic box may be releasably disposed in the receptacle, and the paper container being adapted to reuse or recycle for environmental protection purposes.
- For decreasing pollution to the environment, some manufactures have change the material of making cosmetic containers from plastic to paper. In a conventional paper container for cosmetic products, a magnet is provided on each of a cover and a receptacle. Thus, the container can be securely closed due to magnetic attraction when one magnet is attached to the other magnet.
- However, the container is provided with the magnets which are required to be classified when the container is recycled. This is no good to environmental protection.
- Thus, the need for improvement still exists.
- It is therefore one object of the invention to provide a paper container for cosmetic products comprising a casing made of cardboard and including a cover, a base, and an intermediate section hingedly interconnected to the cover and the base; a flap made of paper and being partially attached to an inner surface of the cover; a receiving member made of cardboard attached to a top of the base and including at least one receptacle and a groove on a front end of a bottom wherein the flap is configured to insert into the groove; and a through hole disposed through the base and the receptacle.
- The invention has the following advantages and benefits in comparison with the conventional art:
It is recyclable due to its paper material. - After inserting a hinged front portion of the flap into the groove of the receiving member, an intermediate portion of the flap engages a front end of the receiving member and a hinged tab of the flap urges against a top of a front end of the base of the casing, thereby securely closing the receiving member. Therefore, closing of the paper container is made easy. Further, opening of the closed paper container is made easy by pulling the hinged tab of the flap.
- A cosmetic box can be releasably disposed in the receptacle. An individual may insert his or her finger through the through hole to push the cosmetic box out of the receptacle for use. After use, the individual may place another cosmetic box in the receptacle again. The cosmetic container can be reused or recycled for environmental protection purposes.
- The above and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings.

-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a paper container for cosmetic products according to a first preferred embodiment of the invention, the paper container being open; -
FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the paper container; -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the paper container in a closed position; -
FIG. 4 is another perspective view ofFIG. 3 , viewed from the bottom; -
FIG. 5 is a front view ofFIG. 3 ; -
FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line 6-6 ofFIG. 5 ; -
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a paper container for cosmetic products according to a second preferred embodiment of the invention, the paper container being open; and -
FIG. 8 is a perspective with of the paper container according to the first preferred embodiment of the invention, the paper container being open and a cosmetic box being disposed in the receptacle. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 and2 , a paper container for cosmetic products (hereinafter "cosmetic container") in accordance with a first preferred embodiment of the invention comprises acasing 10 made of cardboard and including acover 101, abase 103, and anintermediate section 102 hingedly interconnected to thecover 101 and thebase 103; aflap 12 made of paper and being partially attached to an inner surface of thecover 101; a sheet ofpaper 14 attached to an inner surface of thecasing 10 to cover from a front end of an inner surface of thebase 103 to a joining portion of theflap 12 and thecover 101; a receivingmember 16 made of cardboard and attached to a portion of a top of the sheet ofpaper 14 directly above thebase 103, thereceiving member 16 including areceptacle 161 and agroove 162 on a front end of a bottom for allowing ahinged front portion 121 of theflap 12 to insert into; and a throughhole 18 through thebase 103, the sheet ofpaper 14, and thereceptacle 161. - It is envisaged by the invention that the cosmetic container is completely made of paper without a mirror and magnets. Closing of the cosmetic container (i.e., firmly joining the
cover 101 and the remaining parts of the cosmetic container together) is implemented by inserting the hingedfront portion 121 of theflap 12 into thegroove 162. In short, the cosmetic container is environmentally friendly. - The
receptacle 161 may be oval or multisided other than being circular as shown inFIG. 1 . - As shown in
FIG. 2 specifically, theflap 12 includes a joiningportion 123 having one surface attached to thecover 101 and the other surface attached to the sheet ofpaper 14, thehinged front portion 121 configured to insert into thegroove 162, and anintermediate portion 122 hingedly interconnected to the joiningportion 123 and the hingedfront portion 121 - Referring to
FIGS. 3 and 4 in conjunction withFIG. 2 , theflap 12 further comprises ahinged tab 124 in an intermediate portion of a joining edge of thehinged front portion 121 and theintermediate portion 122. Therefore, after inserting thehinged front portion 121 into thegroove 162, thereceiving member 16 is securely closed by thecover 101.

After inserting thehinged front portion 121 into thegroove 162, theintermediate portion 122 engages a front end of the receivingmember 16 and the hingedtab 124 urges against a top of a front end of thebase 103. As a result, thereceiving member 16 is securely closed by thecover 101. - Referring to
FIG. 7 , the receivingmember 16 is included in a paper container for cosmetic products (hereinafter "cosmetic container") in accordance with a second preferred embodiment of the invention is shown. The characteristics of the second preferred embodiment are substantially the same as that of the first preferred embodiment except the following: thereceiving member 16 comprises a plurality ofreceptacles 161, and a plurality of throughholes 18 through thebase 103. Thereceptacles 161 are aligned with and communicate with the throughholes 18 respectively. - Referring to
FIG. 8 in conjunction withFIG. 2 , acosmetic box 20 is releasably disposed in thereceptacle 161. Thecosmetic box 20 is made of metal or plastic and filled with foundation, cosmetic powder, or blush. An individual may insert his or her finger through the throughhole 18 to push thecosmetic box 20 out of thereceptacle 161 for use.
