The handle 11 has a constricted portion 15 having a constricted planar shape in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 at a portion between both ends in the longitudinal direction.
Among the plurality of cosmetic applicators accommodated in the applicator accommodation chamber 113, the constricted portions 15 of the cosmetic applicators adjacent to each other face each other.
Details will be described below.

  The cosmetic container 100 includes, for example, a first housing 110, a second housing 120, and a hinge mechanism 130 that connects the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 to each other so as to be openable and closable. A container body 100a is provided. The first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are each formed in a flat shape, and are formed in substantially the same planar shape. The planar shapes of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are not particularly limited, but are rectangular in the example shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the cosmetic container 100 has the first housing 110 held by hand or placed on a table with the hinge mechanism 130 positioned on the back side, and the second housing. The design assumes that 120 is used in an open state with respect to the first housing 110.

  The second housing 120 has a flat recess 121 that faces the first housing 110 in the closed state. When the second casing 120 is opened, the angle formed between the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 becomes a predetermined obtuse angle, and the second casing 120 is supported by the first casing 110, so that the second casing The hinge mechanism 130 is configured such that the bottom surface of the recess 121 of the body 120 faces obliquely upward on the front side. A mirror 122 is provided on the bottom surface of the recess 121 of the second housing 120 so that the user can make up while projecting his / her face on the mirror 122.

  In the first casing 110, a cosmetic storage chamber 111 for storing cosmetics is provided on the back side (hinge mechanism 130 side) of the surface facing the second casing 120 in the closed state. An applicator accommodation chamber 113 for accommodating a plurality of cosmetic applicators in the state of being laid in parallel is provided in the front side portion.

  The cosmetic storage chamber 111 is a flat recess formed on the surface of the first housing 110 facing the second housing 120 in the closed state, and the edge 112 surrounding the periphery of the cosmetic storage chamber 111. It is recessed relatively to. Although the planar shape of the cosmetics storage chamber 111 is not specifically limited, For example, it is a rectangular shape.

  In the cosmetic storage chamber 111, for example, a cosmetic storage pallet 140 is stored. The cosmetic material accommodation pallet 140 is formed with a plurality of regions for accommodating cosmetic materials. For example, a first accommodation area 141, a second accommodation area 142, and a third accommodation area 143 are formed in the cosmetic accommodation pallet 140 in order from the back side, and these areas 141 to 143 extend in the left-right direction. Exist. For example, a creamy cosmetic 151 used as a base is stored in the first storage area 141, and a first cosmetic 152a and a second cosmetic 152b used as eye shadows are stored in the second storage area 142, A cosmetic 153 used as an eyeliner is accommodated in the third accommodation region 143.

The second housing region 142 is formed in a half-moon shape or a crescent-like shape imitating the shape of the upper eye lid, for example, and is formed in a long shape in the left-right direction. A relatively light-colored first makeup is formed in a region on the back side of the second storage region 142 that is partitioned by a virtual dividing line 142a that bisects the second storage region 142 along the longitudinal direction. A relatively dark second cosmetic material 152b is accommodated in an area on the near side where the material 152a is accommodated and partitioned by the dividing line 142a. The dividing line 142a may be a curve or a straight line.
As described above, the cosmetic storage chamber 111 includes a storage area (second storage area 142) that stores the first cosmetic 152a and the second cosmetic 152b of a color different from the first cosmetic 152a. The containing area is formed long in a specific direction. And the 1st cosmetics 152a and the 2nd cosmetics 152b are mutually extended in parallel and adjacent each other along the longitudinal direction of the accommodation area | region in the accommodation area | region.

  The applicator accommodation chamber 113 is a flat recess formed in a surface of the first housing 110 facing the second housing 120 in a closed state, and an edge 115 surrounding the applicator accommodation chamber 113. It is recessed relatively to. The applicator accommodation chamber 113 is formed long in one direction (for example, the left-right direction) in plan view. The applicator accommodation chamber 113 is a single recess having no partition. The bottom surface of the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is a flat placement surface 114. Although the planar shape of the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is not particularly limited, it is rectangular, for example.

  The longitudinal dimension (the dimension in the left-right direction) of the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is longer than the length of the cosmetic applicator having the longest longitudinal dimension among the plurality of cosmetic applicators accommodated together in the applicator accommodation chamber 113. long. On the other hand, the short dimension (dimension in the depth direction) of the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is that of the cosmetic applicator with the shortest longitudinal dimension among the plurality of cosmetic applicators accommodated together in the applicator accommodation chamber 113. Shorter than length.

  The first cosmetic applicator 10 and the second cosmetic applicator 20 are placed on the placement surface 114 in parallel with each other along the longitudinal direction of the applicator accommodation chamber 113. Thereby, the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 and the 2nd cosmetics applicator 20 are accommodated in the applicator accommodation chamber 113 so that removal from the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is possible.

  In the second housing 120, a locking piece 123 is provided on an edge portion far from the hinge mechanism 130. In the first casing 110, a locking portion 116 that engages with the locking piece 123 in the state where the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 are closed to each other is provided at the edge far from the hinge mechanism 130. Is provided.

  The second housing 120 is a lid. In a state in which the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are closed to each other, the surface of the first housing 110 facing the second housing 120 is covered with the second housing 120. The housing 120 can protect the cosmetics storage chamber 111 and regulate the cosmetic applicators 10 and 20 from falling off. At the same time, in a state where the first casing 110 and the second casing 120 are closed to each other, the recess 121 of the second casing 120 is closed by the first casing 110, so that the recess 121 is provided in the recess 121. The mirror 122 is protected by the first housing 110.

  FIG. 2 is a view showing the first cosmetic applicator (cosmetic applicator) 10 of the cosmetic container 100 according to the first embodiment. 2 (a) is a plan view, FIG. 2 (b) is a side view seen from the direction of arrow B in FIG. 2 (a), and FIG. 2 (c) is seen from the direction of arrow C in FIG. 2 (b). FIG. 2 (d) is a front view as seen from the direction of arrow D in FIG. 2 (b). Moreover, FIG.2 (e), FIG.2 (f) and FIG.2 (g) are sectional drawings of the handle | steering_wheel 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle | steering_wheel 11 of the 1st cosmetics applicator 10, respectively. 2 (e) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line EE in FIG. 2 (a), FIG. 2 (f) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line FF in FIG. 2 (a), and FIG. It is GG arrow sectional drawing of (a). Moreover, FIG.2 (h) is a HH arrow sectional drawing of Fig.2 (a). That is, FIG. 2 (h) is a diagram showing a longitudinal section of the handle 11 at a position parallel to the center axis X of the handle 11 and offset in the width direction of the handle 11 with respect to the center axis X. . 2E, 2F, and 2G, the thin direction of the first cosmetic applicator 10 is the vertical direction, and the thick direction is the horizontal direction (left and right direction). Show.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the first cosmetic applicator 10 is a makeup brush. In the first cosmetic applicator 10, the brush as the application body 12 is provided only at one end of the handle 11, and the application body 12 is not provided at the other end of the handle 11.

  As shown in FIGS. 2E, 2F, 2G, etc., the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a flat shape. That is, the handle 11 has a thin direction and a thick direction. When the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114, the thick direction in the cross section of the handle 11 is the horizontal direction, and the thin direction in the cross section of the handle 11 is the vertical direction. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a flat shape that is thinner in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction in a state where the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114. I am doing.

The handle 11 has a first handle portion 13 in surface contact with the placement surface 114 in a state where the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114, and the first cosmetic applicator 10 placed thereon. And a second handle portion 14 in line contact with the mounting surface 114 in a state of being mounted on the surface 114.
The second handle 14 is located farther from the application body 12 than the first handle 13 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. The first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14 may be adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 or may be separated from each other. In the case of the present embodiment, the first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14 are adjacent to each other.

More specifically, for example, the first handle 13 is a portion including the end of the handle 11 on the application body 12 side, and the second handle 14 is on the opposite side of the handle 11 from the application body 12 side. It is a part including an end part.
In other words, the first handle portion 13 is a portion including the one end 11 a of the handle 11 and having a predetermined dimension in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. The second handle portion 14 includes the other end 11 b of the handle 11 and has a predetermined dimension in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11.

In at least a part of the handle 11 in the longitudinal direction, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is such that the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape are convex curves. That is, the lower edge of the cross-sectional shape bulges downward in an arch shape, and the upper edge of the cross-sectional shape bulges upward in an arch shape.
More specifically, the second handle 14 has a convex curve at the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 at any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. ing. That is, the lower surface and the upper surface of the second handle portion 14 are convex curved surfaces.
In addition, since the lower surface and upper surface of the 2nd handle | pattern part 14 are convex-curved shape in this way, the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 can be mounted on the mounting surface 114 irrespective of the upper and lower sides.
The cross-sectional shape is preferably symmetrical.
The shape in which the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves include an elliptical shape and a spindle shape, as well as straight portions on the edges of both sides of the cross section. Shape etc. are included.
The elliptical shape is not limited to an elliptical shape (a shape made up of a curve made up of a set of points with a constant sum of distances from two fixed points and having a minor axis and a major axis). But a shape close to an ellipse is included. In the case of an elliptical shape, the edges of both side portions of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curved, that is, arched (convexly curved) toward the side (outward). ).

The thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X of the handle 11 is substantially constant over the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, or is gradually reduced from the one end 11a to the other end 11b (see FIG. 2 (b)). That is, the thickness d1 and the thickness d2 shown in FIG. 2B may be equal to each other, or the thickness d2 may be slightly smaller than the thickness d1. Here, the thickness d1 is the maximum thickness in the portion excluding the chamfered portion on the one end 11a side and the other end 11b side of the handle 11, and the thickness d2 is the chamfered portion on the one end 11a side and the other end 11b side of the handle 11. It is the minimum thickness in the excluded part.
The ratio (d1: d2) between the thickness d1 and the thickness d2 is in the range of 1: 1 to 5: 1, so that the handle 11 can be easily held. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of easy removal, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1: 3: 1. From the viewpoint of ease of use, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1 to 2: 1.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2 (h), the thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 at a position parallel to the offset of the handle 11 passing through the center axis X of the handle 11 and offset from the center axis X. Is thinner at the other end 11b than at the one end 11a. More specifically, for example, a section 17 and a section 18 are formed between the end of the first handle 13 on the other end 11b side and the other end 11b. Of these, the section 17 is a section that is adjacent to the first handle 13 and gradually decreases in thickness toward the other end 11b. The section 18 is located between the section 17 and the other end 11b and has a substantially constant thickness.
The thickness of the section 18 is substantially the same as the minimum thickness in the section 17. More specifically, for example, the thickness of the section 18 is the other end than the thickness at the boundary between the section 18 and the section 17 in a portion that coincides with the central axis X in a plan view and a portion that is close to the central axis X. The thickness at the portion on the 11b side is thinner. On the other hand, in the portion far from the central axis X in plan view, the thickness of the section 18 is thicker at the portion on the other end 11b side than at the boundary between the section 18 and the section 17. ing. That is, with respect to the thickness of the section 18, the thickness of the portion on the other end 11b side with respect to the thickness at the boundary between the section 18 and the section 17 increases with increasing distance from the central axis X in plan view, and their magnitude relationship is , Reverse at a certain position.

As described above, the second handle portion 14 has a predetermined dimension in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 and has a cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 at any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. The lower and upper edges have convex curves, and the thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X of the handle 11 is substantially constant over the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 or one end 11a. Gradually decreases toward the other end 11b.
For this reason, the 2nd handle | steering-wheel part 14 comes in line contact with the mounting surface 114 in the state in which the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 was mounted in the mounting surface 114. FIG. Specifically, the central portion in the horizontal direction that is the thick direction (the lower edge of the second handle portion 14 in the longitudinal section of the handle 11 that passes through the central axis X) makes line contact with the placement surface 114.

On the other hand, in the first handle 13, the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a flat rectangular shape (for example, a rounded rectangular shape). That is, the first handle portion 13 has a flat rectangular parallelepiped shape. As shown in FIG. 2E, the first handle 13 has a lower surface 13a, an upper surface 13b, and side surfaces 13c and 13d, and the lower surface 13a, the upper surface 13b, and the side surfaces 13c and 13d are each flat. . In addition, the mutual boundary part of the lower surface 13a, the upper surface 13b, and the side surfaces 13c and 13d is chamfered, for example.
Since the first handle 13 has a predetermined dimension in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, the first handle 13 is placed on the placement surface 114 in a state where the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114. In surface contact.

  As described above, the handle 11 is constricted so that the planar shape of the handle 11 is constricted between the both ends in the longitudinal direction (between the one end 11a and the other end 11b). Part 15. For example, the constricted portion 15 is formed at an intermediate portion in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. More specifically, the constricted portion 15 is formed across, for example, an intermediate position when the handle 11 is divided into two equal parts in the longitudinal direction. However, the constricted portion 15 is not necessarily formed so as to straddle the intermediate position.

As shown in FIG. 2A, the constricted portion 15 is configured such that the front side and the back side surface of the handle 11 are recessed toward the central axis X side of the handle 11. . In other words, in the case of the present embodiment, the constricted portion 15 is formed by constricting the near side portion and the far side portion in plan view.
In the case of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2A, the constricted portion 15 is from the end on the other end 11 b side of the first handle 13 to the vicinity of the end on the other end 11 b side of the second handle 14. It is formed over the part. That is, in the case of the present embodiment, the second handle portion 14 includes the entire constricted portion 15.
However, the first handle portion 13 may include part or all of the constricted portion 15, and the second handle portion 14 may not include the constricted portion 15.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 is from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. After gradually decreasing, gradually increasing. More specifically, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 is continuous from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. After the decrease, it increases continuously. In addition, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 gradually decreased from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. Later, it may increase in stages.

  The handle 11 has, for example, a plane symmetric shape based on the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X. Further, the handle 11 has, for example, a plane symmetrical shape with respect to the plane cross section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X.

As shown in FIGS. 2F and 2G, the second handle 14 has a lower surface 14a, an upper surface 14b, a side surface 14c, and a side surface 14d.
In the vicinity of the cross-sectional position in FIG. 2F, the lower surface 14a, the upper surface 14b, the side surface 14c, and the side surface 14d are, for example, convex curved surfaces, respectively. That is, in the vicinity of the cross-sectional position in FIG. 2F, for example, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a convex curve with the lower, upper and left and right edges of the cross-sectional shape. It has become a shape. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the second handle portion 14 is, for example, an ellipse.
On the other hand, in the vicinity of the cross-sectional position in FIG. 2G, for example, the lower surface 14a and the upper surface 14b are convex curved surfaces, and the side surface 14c and the side surface 14d each include a planar portion. That is, in the vicinity of the cross-sectional position in FIG. 2F, for example, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a convex curve on the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape. However, the left and right edges include straight portions.

As shown in FIG. 2G, the constricted portion 15 has a lower surface 15a, an upper surface 15b, a side surface 15c, and a side surface 15d.
Here, at the position of the cross section of FIG. 2G, the lower surface 14a (lower surface 15a) has a shape close to a plane as compared with the lower surface 14a at the position of the cross section of FIG. Similarly, at the position of the cross section of FIG. 2G, the upper surface 14b (upper surface 15b), the side surface 14c (side surface 15c) and the side surface 14d (side surface 15d) are the upper surface 14b at the position of the cross section of FIG. Compared to the side surface 14c and the side surface 14d, each has a shape close to a plane.
Moreover, the shape of the lower surface 14a (lower surface 15a), the upper surface 14b (upper surface 15b), the side surface 14c (side surface 15c), and the side surface 14d (side surface 15d) is gradually close to a flat surface toward the one end 11a side. .
For example, the lower surface 15a and the upper surface 15b are respectively convex curved surfaces, and the side surface 15c and the side surface 15d each include a planar portion. That is, in the constricted portion 15, for example, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 has a convex curve shape on the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape. The edge includes a straight line portion.

  The handle 11 is formed with a recess 16 that opens toward the one end 11a. One end side portion of a large number of hairs constituting a brush as the application body 12 is inserted into the recess 16 and fixed thereto. . In addition, in the handle | steel 11, parts other than the part into which the one end side part of hair is inserted may be solid, and may be hollow.

Here, the application body 12 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 includes a first applicator 12a and a second applicator arranged side by side in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 of the first cosmetic applicator 10. And an application part 12b. And the color of the hair which comprises the 2nd application part 12b is darker than the color of the hair which comprises the 1st application part 12a. That is, the first cosmetic applicator 10 is a two-color brush having two colors of hair.
Thus, the application body 12 of at least any one of the cosmetic applicators (first cosmetic applicator 10) among the plurality of cosmetic applicators is in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 of the cosmetic applicator. It has the 1st application part 12a and the 2nd application part 12b arrange | positioned along with the orthogonal direction, and the 1st application part 12a and the 2nd application part 12b are a thing of a mutually different color.

  FIG. 3 is a view showing the second cosmetic applicator (cosmetic applicator) 20 of the cosmetic container 100 according to the first embodiment. 3 (a) is a plan view, FIG. 3 (b) is a side view seen from the direction of arrow B in FIG. 3 (a), and FIG. 3 (c) is seen from the direction of arrow C in FIG. 3 (b). FIG. 3D is a front view, as seen from the direction of arrow D in FIG. Moreover, FIG.3 (e), FIG.3 (f), and FIG.3 (g) are sectional drawings of the handle | steering_wheel 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle | steering_wheel 11 of the 2nd cosmetics applicator 20, respectively. 3 (e) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line EE in FIG. 3 (a), FIG. 3 (f) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line FF in FIG. 3 (a), and FIG. It is GG arrow sectional drawing of (a). In addition, each cross section shown in FIG.3 (e), FIG.3 (f), and FIG.3 (g) makes the thin direction of the 2nd cosmetics applicator 20 the up-down direction, and makes the thick direction the horizontal direction (left-right direction). Show.

  The second cosmetic applicator 20 is for drawing an eyeline. In the second cosmetic applicator 20, the tip as the application body 12 is provided only at one end of the handle 11, and the application body 12 is not provided at the other end of the handle 11. The application body 12 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 is made of a flexible porous material such as a resin sponge. The second cosmetic applicator 20 has a rod-shaped shaft portion 27 for fixing the application body 12 to the handle 11. The application body 12 is provided around a portion on one end side of the shaft portion 27, and the other end side portion of the shaft portion 27 is inserted and fixed to the handle 11 from the one end 11 a side of the handle 11.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (e), FIG. 3 (f), FIG. 3 (g) and the like, also in the second cosmetic applicator 20, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is It has a flat shape. When the second cosmetic applicator 20 is placed on the placement surface 114, the thick direction in the cross section of the handle 11 is the horizontal direction, and the thin direction in the cross section of the handle 11 is the vertical direction. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a flat shape that is thinner in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction with the second cosmetic applicator 20 placed on the placement surface 114. I am doing.

In the second cosmetic applicator 20 as well, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 that is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is convex at the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape in at least a portion of the handle 11 in the longitudinal direction. It has become a shape. That is, the lower edge of the cross-sectional shape bulges downward in an arch shape, and the upper edge of the cross-sectional shape bulges upward in an arch shape.
More specifically, at any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves (FIG. 3 (e) ), FIG. 3 (f), FIG. 3 (g)). That is, the lower surface and the upper surface of the handle 11 are convex curved surfaces.
In addition, since the lower surface and the upper surface of the handle 11 are convex curved in this way, the second cosmetic applicator 20 can be placed on the placement surface 114 regardless of whether it is upper or lower.
The shape in which the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves include an elliptical shape and a spindle shape, as well as straight portions on the edges of both sides of the cross section. Shape etc. are included.
The elliptical shape is not limited to an elliptical shape (a shape made up of a curve made up of a set of points with a constant sum of distances from two fixed points and having a minor axis and a major axis). But a shape close to an ellipse is included. In the case of an elliptical shape, the edges of both side portions of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curved, that is, arched (convexly curved) toward the side (outward). ).

The thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X of the handle 11 is substantially constant over the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, or from the portion on the one end 11a side to the portion on the other end 11b side of the handle 11 (See FIG. 3B). That is, the thickness d1 and the thickness d2 shown in FIG. 3B may be equal to each other, or the thickness d2 may be slightly smaller than the thickness d1. Here, the thickness d1 is the maximum thickness of the handle 11, and the thickness d2 is the minimum thickness of the portion on the other end 11b side of the handle 11 excluding the chamfered portion.
The ratio (d1: d2) between the thickness d1 and the thickness d2 is in the range of 1: 1 to 5: 1, so that the handle 11 can be easily held. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of easy removal, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1: 3: 1. From the viewpoint of ease of use, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1 to 2: 1.

Here, as described above, at any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves.
For this reason, when the thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X of the handle 11 is substantially constant over the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, the second cosmetic applicator 20 is placed on the placement surface 114. In this state, the handle 11 makes line contact with the placement surface 114.
Alternatively, when the thickness of the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X of the handle 11 decreases linearly from the portion on the one end 11a side to the portion on the other end 11b side of the handle 11, the second cosmetic In a state where the applicator 20 is placed on the placement surface 114, the handle 11 makes line contact with the placement surface 114.

  Also in the second cosmetic applicator 20, the handle 11 has a planar shape in a state of being placed on the placement surface 114 at a portion between both ends in the longitudinal direction (between the one end 11a and the other end 11b). A constricted portion 15 having a constricted shape is provided. For example, the constricted portion 15 is formed at an intermediate portion in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. More specifically, the constricted portion 15 is formed across, for example, an intermediate position when the handle 11 is divided into two equal parts in the longitudinal direction. However, the constricted portion 15 is not necessarily formed so as to straddle the intermediate position.

  The constricted portion 15 is formed, for example, from a portion near the end on the one end 11 a side of the handle 11 to a portion near the end on the other end 11 b side of the handle 11. As shown in FIG. 3A, the constricted portion 15 is configured such that the front and back side surfaces of the handle 11 are recessed toward the central axis X side of the handle 11. . That is, the constricted portion 15 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 is also formed by constricting the front side and the back side portions in a plan view, for example.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 is from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. After gradually decreasing, gradually increasing. More specifically, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placing surface 114 is continuous from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. After the decrease, it increases continuously. In addition, the width dimension of the narrow part 15 in the plan view in a state of being placed on the placement surface 114 is a plurality of steps from one end side to the other end side of the narrow part 15 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. After decreasing, it may increase in several steps.

  The handle 11 has, for example, a plane symmetric shape based on the longitudinal section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X. Further, the handle 11 has, for example, a plane symmetrical shape with respect to the plane cross section of the handle 11 passing through the central axis X.

The handle 11 has a lower surface 23a, an upper surface 23b, a side surface 23c, and a side surface 23d. The lower surface 23a, the upper surface 23b, the side surface 23c, and the side surface 23d are, for example, convex curved surfaces. That is, for example, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 has convex curves on the lower side, upper side, and left and right sides of the cross-sectional shape. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 is, for example, an ellipse.
The lower surface 15a, the upper surface 15b, the side surface 15c, and the side surface 15d of the constricted portion 15 are also convex curved surfaces. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the constricted portion 15 is, for example, an ellipse.

  In addition, in each of the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 and the 2nd cosmetics applicator 20, the material of the pattern 11 is not specifically limited. The handle 11 may be made of resin, or may be made of a material other than resin, such as wood.

  FIG. 4 is a view for explaining the take-out operation of the first cosmetic applicator 10 of the cosmetic container 100 according to the first embodiment, in which FIG. 4 (a) is the first cosmetic application with a finger. FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view showing the rotation of the handle 11 (for example, the second handle portion 14).

  As shown in FIG. 4A, for example, the first cosmetic applicator 10 can be easily accommodated by lifting the handle 11 so that the constricted portion 15 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 is picked with the index finger and thumb. The chamber 113 can be taken out. Because the constricted portion 15 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 and the constricted portion 15 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 face each other, the first cosmetic applicator 10 and the second cosmetic applicator 20 This is because a large gap is formed between them, and a finger (such as a thumb) can be easily inserted into the gap.

Here, when picking up the handle 11 of the first cosmetic applicator 10, the part 14e offset from the central axis X to the back side in the second handle portion 14 is lowered by any finger (for example, a ring finger). The handle 11 can be picked up more easily by pushing to.
The reason is as follows.
In the longitudinal section passing through the central axis X, the handle 11 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 has a substantially constant thickness as in the side view shown in FIG.
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2 (h), in the longitudinal section offset from the central axis X, the thickness at the other end 11b is thinner than the thickness at the one end 11a side. .
Furthermore, as for the cross-sectional shape of the 2nd handle | steering-wheel part 14 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle | steering_wheel 11, the lower edge and the upper edge are convex curve shape as mentioned above.
Therefore, when the portion 14e shown in FIG. 4A is pushed down, the handle 11 is rotated with the portion positioned below the central axis X on the lower surface 14a of the second handle 14 as a fulcrum (FIG. 4 ( b)), the portion 15e shown in FIG. Here, since the handle 11 rotates while being twisted on the spot, the first cosmetic applicator 10 can be easily taken out in a narrow space. That is, the pattern 11 does not purely rotate around the central axis X, but the pattern 11 can be rotated with the twist of the central axis X of the pattern 11. For this reason, compared with the case where the handle 11 is purely rotated around the central axis X, the amount of ascending of the portion 15e is increased, so that the operation of picking the handle 11 becomes extremely easy. The portion 15e is a side surface of the constricted portion 15 and is a portion that is offset from the central axis X to the near side in the constricted portion 15.

  FIG. 5 is a view showing a state in which the first cosmetic applicator 10 of the cosmetic container 100 according to the first embodiment is held by hand.

After taking out the first cosmetic applicator 10 from the applicator accommodation chamber 113, the user can hold the first cosmetic applicator 10 in a manner as shown in FIG. At this time, since the finger can be fitted to the constricted portion 15 and the handle 11 can be held, the first cosmetic applicator 10 can be stably supported.
Further, by attaching the belly of the index finger to the side surface (for example, the side surface 15d) of the constricted portion 15 or the side surface (for example, the side surface 13d) of the first handle portion 13, it is possible to prevent the handle 11 from being shaken around the central axis X. can do. This is because the side surface of the first handle portion 13 is flat and the side surface of the constricted portion 15 is closer to the plane than the curved side surfaces (side surface 14c and side surface 14d) of the second handle portion 14. This is because.
Moreover, since the edge part by the side of the other end 11b of the handle | pattern 11 is wide toward the other end 11b side, it is easy to hold the handle | strum 11 stably.

Note that when the second cosmetic applicator 20 is taken out, for example, the second cosmetic applicator can be easily obtained by lifting the handle 11 so that the constricted portion 15 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 is picked with the index finger and thumb. 20 can be taken out from the applicator accommodation chamber 113. Because the constricted portion 15 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 and the constricted portion 15 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 face each other, the second cosmetic applicator 20 and the first cosmetic applicator 10 This is because a large gap is formed between them, and a finger (such as a thumb) can be easily inserted into the gap.
In addition, since the lower and upper edges of the handle 11 of the second cosmetic applicator 20 have convex curves, the handle 11 can be easily picked up while rotating on the spot. Therefore, the second cosmetic applicator 20 can be easily taken in a narrow space.

  Next, an example of a makeup method using the cosmetic container 100 will be described. FIG. 6 is a view showing an example of use of the cosmetic container 100.

  First, the dullness of the eye lid is covered by applying the cosmetic 151, which is a cream-like base accommodated in the first accommodation area 141, to the eye lid with a finger.

  Next, using the first cosmetic applicator 10, the first cosmetic 152a and the second cosmetic 152b, which are eye shadows accommodated in the second accommodation region 142, are taken. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the first application part 12a of the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the first cosmetic 152a, and the second application part 12b is placed on the second cosmetic 152b. Put it on. And the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 is moved along the longitudinal direction of the 2nd accommodation area | region 142 so that the boundary of the 1st application part 12a and the 2nd application part 12b may move along the dividing line 142a. Thereby, the 1st cosmetics 152a can be mainly attached to the 1st application part 12a, and the 2nd cosmetics 152b can be mainly attached to the 2nd application part 12b. That is, the color shades of the first cosmetic material 152a and the second cosmetic material 152b and the color shades of the first application portion 12a and the second application portion 12b of the first cosmetic applicator 10 are matched. The 1st cosmetics 152a and the 2nd cosmetics 152b can be made to adhere to the 1 application part 12a and the 2nd application part 12b, respectively. Then, with the first application part 12a on the upper side and the second application part 12b on the lower side, the application body 12 is applied to the eyelid, and the first cosmetic applicator 10 is moved sideways along the eyelid as it is. First cosmetic material 152a and second cosmetic material 152b are applied to the eyelids. Thereby, an eye shadow can be easily applied to the eyelid so that a natural gradation that becomes a light color as it moves away from the eyes is formed. Here, since the handle 11 of the first cosmetic applicator 10 is formed flat, the user can hold the first applicator 12a and the second applicator 12b in the intended orientation (position). It can have a handle 11. Therefore, it is possible to easily apply the cosmetic to the intended portion of the eyelid by each of the first application unit 12a and the second application unit 12b.

  Next, using the second cosmetic applicator 20, the cosmetic 153 that is an eyeliner accommodated in the third accommodation region 143 is taken out. That is, the cosmetic 153 is attached to the application body 12 of the second cosmetic applicator 20. And the eyeline is formed by apply | coating cosmetics 153 at the time of eyes using the 2nd cosmetics applicator 20. FIG.

  By passing through these three steps, it is possible to easily make a makeup that covers a dull and has a bright eye with a gradation formed.

  In addition, when the cosmetics stored in the cosmetic storage pallet 140 are used up, they can be replaced with new cosmetic storage pallets 140. That is, the cosmetic can be refilled. Note that the refill set may include a plurality of cosmetic applicators newly accommodated in the applicator accommodation chamber 113 together with the cosmetic accommodation pallet 140.

According to the first embodiment as described above, the handle 11 of each of the plurality of cosmetic applicators accommodated in the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is placed on the placement surface 114 at a portion between both ends in the longitudinal direction. The constricted portion 15 has a constricted shape in plan view when placed on the surface. Of the plurality of cosmetic applicators, the constricted portions 15 of the cosmetic applicators adjacent to each other face each other. Therefore, compared with the case where the cosmetic applicator does not have the constricted portion 15, the gap between the cosmetic applicators adjacent to each other can be widened. The handle 11 of the applicator can be picked up.
Therefore, even if the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is formed to be sufficiently small, the cosmetic applicator can be easily taken out.
Moreover, since the finger | toe can be firmly fitted to the constriction part 15 and it can have the handle | pattern 11, makeup | decoration can be performed in the state which hold | maintained the cosmetic applicator stably with the hand. Therefore, the cosmetic can be applied by bringing the application body 12 into contact with a desired portion with a desired pressing amount.
In order to house a plurality of cosmetic applicators together in one applicator accommodation chamber 113, that is, to place a plurality of cosmetic applicators on a common mounting surface 114 for application. The combination of the cosmetic applicators stored in the tool storage chamber 113 can be easily replaced with a combination of the cosmetic applicators having different thicknesses, lengths, forms of the application bodies 12, and the like. That is, the same container body 100a can be reused for a plurality of types of cosmetic applicators.

Further, the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a thin flat shape in the vertical direction when the cosmetic applicator is placed on the placement surface 114. For this reason, the cosmetic applicator can be stably placed on the placement surface 114. In addition, when the cosmetic applicator is placed on a table or the like, the cosmetic applicator can be prevented from rolling off.
In addition, the handle 11 can be stably held by fitting a finger to the flat handle 11, and the cosmetic applicator can be used by easily adjusting the direction of the application body 12 to a desired direction.

In addition, since the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves in at least a part of the handle 11 in the longitudinal direction, the touch of the portion becomes soft. , Easy to hold the handle 11. In particular, since the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is elliptical, the touch can be made softer.
Moreover, when taking out the cosmetic applicator from the applicator accommodation chamber 113, in particular, the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape of the end of the handle 11 on the other end 11b side are convex curves. It can be suppressed that the handle 11 is caught by the edge 115 or the handle 11 is caught by the handle 11 of the adjacent cosmetic applicator. That is, even when the handle 11 comes into contact with the edge 115 or the handle 11 of the adjacent cosmetic applicator, the handle 11 can be smoothly moved and taken out. Therefore, even if the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is narrow, the cosmetic applicator can be easily taken out from the applicator accommodation chamber 113. In particular, since the cross-sectional shape of the end portion on the other end 11b side of the handle 11 is elliptical, the cosmetic applicator can be taken out more reliably and smoothly.

Moreover, in the 1st cosmetics applicator 10, the application body 12 is provided only in the one end part of the handle | steering_wheel 11, the application body 12 is not provided in the other end part of the handle | steering_wheel 11, and the handle | steering_wheel 11 is 1st. The first handle 13 that is in surface contact with the placement surface 114 in a state where the cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114 and the first cosmetic applicator 10 are placed on the placement surface 114. And the second handle portion 14 that is in line contact with the mounting surface 114 in a state where the mounting surface 114 is in contact. The second handle 14 is located farther from the application body 12 than the first handle 13 in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. In any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, the second handle portion 14 has a convex curve shape on the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11.
Accordingly, when the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114 or when the first cosmetic applicator 10 is held by hand, the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface. The ease of taking out from 114 can be made compatible.
That is, since the first handle portion 13 is in surface contact with the placement surface 114, the first cosmetic applicator 10 can be stably placed on the placement surface 114. In addition, the handle 11 can be stably held by attaching the finger to the surface in surface contact with the placement surface 114 in the first handle portion 13 and holding the handle 11.
Further, for example, when a portion 14e shown in FIG. 4A is pushed down (see FIG. 4B), a portion located below the central axis X on the lower surface 14a of the second handle 14 serves as a fulcrum. The handle 11 rotates and the part 15e shown in FIG. Here, since the turning of the handle 11 accompanied by the twist of the center axis X of the handle 11 can be realized, the amount of ascending of the portion 15e is increased as compared with the case where the handle 11 is purely rotated around the center axis X. To do. Therefore, even if the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is narrow, the first cosmetic applicator 10 can be easily taken out from the applicator accommodation chamber 113.

  In particular, in the longitudinal section of the handle 11 offset from the central axis X, the thickness of the handle 11 is thinner at the other end 11b than at the one end 11a. As a result, the amount of rise of the part 15e when the part 14e shown in FIG. 4A is pushed down can be further increased, and therefore the operation of picking the handle 11 becomes extremely easy.

  In the second cosmetic applicator 20, the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape of the handle 11 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are convex curves at any position in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. It has become. Thereby, the operation | movement which rotates the handle | steering-wheel 11 around the central axis X on the spot can be performed easily. Therefore, even if the applicator accommodation chamber 113 is narrow, the second cosmetic applicator 20 can be easily taken out of the applicator accommodation chamber 113.

  In addition, in at least one cosmetic applicator among the plurality of cosmetic applicators, the width dimension of the constricted portion 15 in a plan view in a state of being placed on the placement surface 114 is the length of the handle 11. After gradually decreasing from one end side to the other end side of the constricted portion 15 in the direction, it gradually increases. Thereby, since a finger can be smoothly inserted into the gap between the constricted portions 15 of the adjacent cosmetic applicators, the cosmetic applicator can be taken out more easily.

  The cosmetic storage chamber 111 includes a storage area (second storage area 142) that stores the first cosmetic 152a and the second cosmetic 152b having a color different from that of the first cosmetic 152a. The accommodation area is formed long in a specific direction. The first cosmetic material 152a and the second cosmetic material 152b extend in parallel and adjacent to each other along the longitudinal direction of the accommodation region in the accommodation region. And the application body 12 of the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 has the 1st application part 12a arrange | positioned along with the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle | pattern 11 of the 1st cosmetics applicator 10, and a 2nd application | coating. The first application part 12a and the second application part 12b have different colors. Therefore, as described with reference to FIG. 6, the shades of the colors of the first cosmetic 152 a and the second cosmetic 152 b and the colors of the first application part 12 a and the second application part 12 b of the first cosmetic applicator 10. The cosmetics can be applied in accordance with the lightness and darkness. Accordingly, the first cosmetic 152a can always be attached to the first application part 12a and the second cosmetic 152b can be attached to the second application part 12b. It can suppress that the color with the material 152b is mixed. Therefore, even after the first cosmetic applicator 10 is repeatedly used, a beautiful gradation can be formed with good reproducibility.

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 7 is a plan view showing a plurality of cosmetic applicators provided in the cosmetic container (not shown) according to the second embodiment.

  The cosmetic container according to the present embodiment is different from the cosmetic container 100 according to the first embodiment described above in the cosmetic applicator, and the container main body 100a is the cosmetic container according to the first embodiment. The configuration is the same as 100.

In the first embodiment, the example in which the cosmetic container 100 includes two cosmetic applicators has been described. However, in the second embodiment, the cosmetic container has three cosmetic applicators. It has.
As shown in FIG. 7, the cosmetic container according to the present embodiment includes a first cosmetic applicator 30, a second cosmetic applicator 40, and a third cosmetic applicator 50.

The second cosmetic applicator 40 is the same as the second cosmetic applicator 20 described above.

FIG. 8D is a front view as seen from the direction of arrow D in FIG. Moreover, FIG.8 (e), FIG.8 (f), and FIG.8 (g) are sectional drawings of the handle | steering_wheel 11 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle | steering_wheel 11 of the 1st cosmetics applicator 30, respectively. 8E is a cross-sectional view taken along the line E-E in FIG. 8A, FIG. 8F is a cross-sectional view taken along the line F-F in FIG. 8A, and FIG. It is GG arrow sectional drawing of (a).

In the first cosmetic applicator 30 having the application body 12 at both ends, for example, the thickness d2 can be the thickness of the constricted portion 15. And thickness d1 and thickness d2 can be made into substantially the same thickness. Alternatively, the thickness d2 can be made slightly thinner than the thickness d1.
The ratio (d1: d2) between the thickness d1 and the thickness d2 is in the range of 1: 1 to 5: 1, so that the handle 11 can be easily held. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of easy removal, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1: 3: 1. From the viewpoint of ease of use, the ratio of the thickness d1 to the thickness d2 (d1: d2) is preferably in the range of 1: 1 to 2: 1.

  According to this embodiment, the same effect as that of the first embodiment can be obtained.

FIG. 9 is a view showing a modified example of the first cosmetic applicator 10, in which FIG. 9 (a) shows the cross-sectional shape of the first handle portion 13 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11, and FIG. 9 (b). Indicates the cross-sectional shape of the second handle portion 14 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11.

In the above-described first embodiment, the example in which the cross-sectional shape of the first handle portion 13 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 is a rounded rectangular shape has been described, but as illustrated in FIG. Alternatively, it may be a chamfered rectangular shape.
In the first embodiment, the lower and upper edges of the cross-sectional shape of the second handle portion 14 orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the handle 11 are the second handle portions in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11. In any of the 14 positions, an example of a convex curve has been described. However, the cross-sectional shape of the second handle portion 14 may not be a curved shape. For example, a polygonal shape as shown in FIG. 9B shows an example in which the lower surface 14a of the second handle 14 includes a flat surface in surface contact with the placement surface 114, but the lower surface 14a has a V-shaped cross section. For example, the shape may be in line contact with the mounting surface 114.

In the above description, the example in which the constricted portion 15 is formed by constricting both side surfaces of the handle 11 has been described. However, the constricted portion 15 is formed by constricting one side surface of the handle 11. Also good.
Moreover, when the both sides | surfaces of the handle | steering_wheel 11 are each tied, the degree of the tightness may differ on one side and the other side.
Further, there are a curved surface shape (curvature etc.) from the upper surface of the handle 11 through one side surface to the lower surface and a curved surface shape (curvature etc.) from the upper surface of the handle 11 through the other side surface to the lower surface. They may be different from each other.
Further, the constricted portion 15 may be provided at a plurality of locations in the longitudinal direction of the handle 11.

Moreover, in said 1st Embodiment, the 2nd pattern part 14 of the 1st cosmetics applicator 10 contains the whole narrow part 15, and the 1st pattern part 13 does not contain the narrow part 15 at all. However, the positional relationship between the first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14 and the constricted portion 15 is not limited to this example.
As described above, the first handle portion 13 is a portion that makes surface contact with the placement surface 114, and the second handle portion 14 is a portion that makes line contact with the placement surface 114. On the other hand, the constricted portion 15 is a portion where the handle 11 is constricted in a plan view. For this reason, various inclusion relationships can be established between the first handle 13 and the constricted portion 15 and between the second handle 14 and the constricted portion 15, respectively.
First, FIG. 10A is a diagram showing a positional relationship between the first handle portion 13, the second handle portion 14, and the constricted portion 15 in the first embodiment. In this case, the second handle portion 14 includes the entire constricted portion 15.
As shown in FIG. 10B, the constricted portion 15 may be formed from the first handle portion 13 to the second handle portion 14. That is, the first handle portion 13 may include a part of the constricted portion 15, and the second handle portion 14 may include the remaining portion of the constricted portion 15.
As shown in FIG. 10C, the first handle portion 13 may include the entire constricted portion 15. In addition, in FIG.10 (c), the example by which the edge part by the side of the other end 11b in the 1st handle | pattern part 13 is located near the other end 11b rather than the edge part by the side of the other end 11b in the narrow part 15 is shown. However, the end portion on the other end 11b side of the first handle portion 13 and the end portion on the other end 11b side of the constricted portion 15 may coincide with each other.
As shown in FIG. 10D, the constricted portion 15 may be disposed at a position sandwiched between the first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14. When the first cosmetic applicator 10 is placed on the placement surface 114, the case where the constricted portion 15 does not contact the placement surface 114 and floats in the air corresponds to this example.
Although not shown, the constricted portion 15 is located between the first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14 and is separated from both the first handle portion 13 and the second handle portion 14. You may do it. In this case, in the first intermediate portion located between the first handle portion 13 and the constricted portion 15, the thickness of the handle 11 decreases toward the constricted portion 15 side, and the second handle portion 14 and the constricted portion 15 In the second intermediate portion located between them, the thickness of the handle 11 decreases toward the constricted portion 15 side.
