Thereafter, the end cap 7 is attached to the holder 2, and the main cap 8 is fitted to the end cap 7. By doing so, the puff 12 of the base 4 arranged at the uppermost stage is also sealed.

  The case where the operation container 1 of the said structure is used is demonstrated. Remove the main cap 8. When the operation portion 22 of the feed mechanism 5 is pressed, the operation portion 22 is displaced toward the inside of the holder 3 and the ratchet pawl 21 is separated from the ratchet teeth 20. As a result, their engagement is released. In this state, when a load is applied to the operating portion 22 to slide the operating portion 22 toward the cylindrical portion 6, the ratchet pawl 21 moves toward the cylindrical portion 6 so as to get over the ratchet teeth 20. Then, the pedestal 4 </ b> A arranged at the uppermost stage in the stacking direction is exposed from the cylindrical portion 6. When the above pressing force is released in this state, the ratchet teeth 20 and the ratchet pawl 21 approach and mesh with each other, and the above-described movement is prevented. That is, it is locked. In this state, the puff 12 of the base 4A arranged at the uppermost stage is used.

  After use of the puff 12 will be described. When the two gripping portions 18 of the pedestal 4A arranged at the uppermost level are pressed, that is, picked up, the locking portion 17 of the pedestal 4A is opened and separated from the protrusions 14 of the other pedestals 4B connected below it. To do. In this case, the outer surface of the locking portion 17 of the pedestal 4A and the inner surface of the gripping portion 18 of the other pedestal 4B come into contact with each other, and the gripping portions 16 of the other pedestal 4B are displaced outward. Accordingly, the locking portion 17 of the other pedestal 4B approaches the protrusion 14 of the other pedestal 4C connected to the other pedestal 4B. As a result, the pedestal 4A arranged in the uppermost stage can be removed while maintaining the connection between the other pedestal 4B and the other pedestal 4C.

  Therefore, in this invention, the used base 4A can be reliably removed one by one. Moreover, since the base 4 is removed by picking the gripping part 18, it is possible to prevent the cosmetic impregnated in the puff 12 from adhering to the user's hand or finger during the removal. Furthermore, since the puffs 12 other than the puff 12 of the pedestal 4A arranged in the uppermost stage are sealed by the other recesses 13 arranged on the upper side in the stacking direction, the cosmetics impregnated in the puffs 12 are used. Can be prevented from evaporating or being contaminated by foreign substances. That is, the hygienic operation container 1 can be obtained.
