Description

  The present invention relates to a portable container for liquid cosmetics such as perfume, which can be sprayed or applied directly to the skin.

  In order to easily use liquid cosmetics such as perfumes and liquids (hereinafter simply referred to as cosmetic liquids) on the go, there are miniaturized portable bottles that can be carried around with cosmetic liquids inside. For convenience, there are those equipped with a spraying device by spraying (for example, see Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2).

  These portable containers with a spraying device spray the cosmetic liquid stored using the pressing force by pressing the pressing part of the head. First, the pressing part is pressed first, and when the pressing part returns, a dropper is used. The cosmetic liquid is pulled up from the principle of the above, and the cosmetic liquid pulled up by the second pressing of the pressing portion is sprayed from the spray hole. A gas cylinder or the like is not used for spraying, and it is simple, small and lightweight. It is possible and convenient to carry.

  In addition, in the above spraying method, the cosmetic liquid is sprayed in the air other than spraying to the target position, so that it is known to the surroundings that it has been used in perfumes, etc. Depending on the case, you may be hesitant to spray perfume. Therefore, there is a technique in which a cosmetic liquid such as perfume is directly applied to the skin with a ball that freely rotates in all directions regardless of spraying (see, for example, Patent Document 3 and Patent Document 4).

  For the above-mentioned application type, the cosmetic liquid is directly applied to the skin by immersing the cosmetic liquid in a porous material such as felt and pressing the ball that is in contact with the felt on the inside and exposed to the outside on the opposite side to the skin and rolling it. It is what you do.

  However, each of the spray-type and application-type portable containers described in Patent Documents 1 to 4 is excellent in portability, but it is convenient to use by spraying depending on time and place, and when use by application is convenient. In order to use them properly, it is necessary to carry both containers. In that case, there is a problem in carrying that two kinds of containers are required.

  Moreover, even if it is the same cosmetic liquid, the operation | work put into each of two types of containers is needed, and there also existed a problem that it took an effort.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems and to provide a cosmetic liquid portable container that can be used in both a spray type and a coating type with a single container.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention of claim 1 is characterized in that one end of a cylindrical main body having both ends open for storing the cosmetic liquid is sealed with a spray mechanism having a function of spraying the cosmetic liquid by a pressing operation. The other end of the main body is sealed with an application mechanism having a function of applying cosmetic liquid via a ball that can rotate in all directions exposed to the outside, and the spray mechanism is detachable from the cylindrical main body. This is a portable container for cosmetic liquid.

  Next, the invention of claim 2 is the portable container for cosmetic liquid according to claim 1, wherein the coating mechanism portion is provided with a partition plate that allows the cosmetic liquid to pass from the cylindrical main body. Between the partition plate and the ball, a configuration is provided in which a liquid holding body that can be held by impregnating the cosmetic liquid inside and a spring that presses the ball outward are provided.

  Furthermore, the invention of claim 3 is the portable container for cosmetic liquid according to claim 2, wherein the application mechanism is connected to the cylindrical body and has a large diameter portion having substantially the same diameter as the cylindrical body. A small-diameter portion having a slightly larger diameter than the ball and exposing a part of the surface of the ball from the opening of the tip, and a detachable cap that covers the coating mechanism portion. The small-diameter portion includes the spring and the liquid. A holding body is accommodated, and the cap has an open cylindrical body that covers the small diameter portion inside, and is engaged by an engaging portion provided on the small diameter portion and the cylindrical body when closed by the cap. It is characterized by a fixed configuration.

  As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, since the spray-type and application-type portable containers are combined into one, both types can be used properly depending on time and place, and it is compact and convenient to carry.

  In addition, since both the spray-type and application-type cosmetic liquids are shared in the same container, the container can be filled with the cosmetic liquid only once, and the container can be used regardless of which system is used mainly. You can use up the inner lotion.

  In addition, at least the application mechanism portion is detachable from the cylindrical main body, so that the cosmetic liquid can be easily replenished or replaced, and the liquid holder in the application mechanism portion can be easily replaced.

  Next, according to the invention of claim 2, in addition to the effect of the invention of claim 1, the coating mechanism portion has the liquid holding body only on the ball side from the partition plate. Most cosmetic liquids on the main body side are stored in a liquid state as they are in the cylindrical main body, and it is possible to prevent the cosmetic liquid for spraying from being absorbed by the liquid holder for application and not spraying.

  In addition, since the cosmetic liquid is impregnated with the cosmetic liquid by the liquid holding body and the ball is pressed outward by the spring, the cosmetic liquid is prevented from leaking from the opening where the ball of the coating mechanism part is exposed. Can do.

  Next, according to the invention of claim 3, in addition to the effect of the invention of claim 1 or 2, a small-diameter portion having a slightly larger diameter than the ball and exposing a part of the surface of the ball is provided. Thus, the cosmetic liquid reaches the ball through the thin small-diameter portion in which the spring and the liquid holding body are accommodated, and the leakage of the cosmetic liquid can be further reduced.

  Further, the removable cap that covers the coating mechanism portion has a cylindrical body that is open on the one side that covers the small diameter portion, and is engaged and fixed by an engaging portion provided on the small diameter portion and the cylindrical body when closed. Therefore, the cap does not come off carelessly, and even if the cosmetic liquid leaks from the ball part, the cosmetic liquid stays inside the cylindrical body of the cap, and there is no risk of contaminating the surroundings.

Hereinafter, embodiments of a portable container for cosmetic liquid according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a cosmetic liquid carrying container according to the present invention, which has a spray mechanism portion 20 at one end of a cylindrical tubular body 10 and an application mechanism portion 30 connected to the other end. .

  The cylindrical main body 10 contains a cosmetic liquid such as a lotion or a perfume, and is made of a transparent resin or glass so that the contents can be seen through, so that the remaining amount of the cosmetic liquid can be seen. Can be confirmed at a glance.

  The spray mechanism unit 20 has a well-known simple spray structure that does not use a gas cylinder or the like, and a detailed description thereof is omitted, but the base 21 having the same diameter as the cylindrical main body 10 is viewed from the outside in the longitudinal direction. By pressing the small-diameter columnar pressing portion 22 that can be moved inward and backward toward the base portion 21 side, first, when returning from the first pressing, the cosmetic liquid is dropped from the cylindrical main body 10 through the tube 24 by the negative pressure generated. The liquid is sucked up by the above action, and the stored liquid is sprayed from the spray hole 23 on the side surface of the pressing portion 22 by the second press.

  The coating mechanism 30 includes an outer case 31 having a small diameter part 31a at the tip, a large diameter part 31c having the same diameter as the cylindrical main body 10, and a tapered part 31b between the small diameter part 31a and the large diameter part 31c. Thus, an omnidirectional freely rotating ball 32 directly exposed to the skin is exposed from the tip of the small diameter portion 31a.

  The components of the coating mechanism section 30 are as shown in the exploded view of FIG. 2, and the case 31 having the above configuration, the ball 32 housed inside the case 31, the spring 34 that presses the ball 32 outward, and the spring 34. And a partition plate 36 that engages and holds a spring 34 at the opposite end of the ball 32. The liquid holder 35 is made of a porous material such as felt or sponge.

  The partition plate 36 is as shown in the perspective views of FIGS. 3 (A) and 3 (B). A cylindrical portion 36a is projected from the central portion of the disc having the same diameter as the inside of the large diameter portion 31c. The outside of the cylindrical portion 36a is fitted and joined to the inside of the spring 34, and the liquid holding body 35 is accommodated inside the cylindrical portion 36a.

  In addition, a protruding portion 36 b is provided on the side opposite to the cylindrical portion 36 a of the partition plate 36, and this protruding portion 36 b has four openings around the opening that communicates with the cylindrical portion 36 a at the base of the partition plate 36. The column 36c is erected, and includes a ring portion 36d that connects the tips of the adjacent columns 36c, and a cross portion 36e that connects the tips of the opposing columns 36c. The liquid holding body 35 is inserted into the projecting portion 36b through the cylindrical portion 36a. The cosmetic liquid in the cylindrical main body 10 can sufficiently come into contact with the liquid holding body 35 through the protruding portion 36b.

  The liquid holding body 35 is prevented from falling off to the cylindrical main body 10 side by the pillar 36c, the ring portion 36d, and the cross portion 36e constituting the protruding portion 36b, but the structure of the protruding portion 36b is shown in the figure. Various structures can be employed, and in summary, the shape and the like are adjusted in consideration of the degree of impregnation of the cosmetic liquid into the liquid holding portion 35 from the cylindrical body 10 side together with the prevention of the liquid holding body 35 from coming off. And design. For example, one or a plurality of small holes may be provided in the projecting portion 36b, and in that case, the number and size of the holes may be appropriately determined in consideration of the degree of impregnation of the cosmetic liquid into the liquid holding portion 35 and the like. .

  The ball 32 has a diameter slightly larger than the inner diameter of the spring 34, and the ball 32 does not enter the inside of the spring 34 but can be pressed by the spring 34.

  Further, the inner diameter of the small diameter portion 31 a is slightly larger than the ball 32 to such an extent that the ball 32 can move in the length direction, while the tip opening 33 of the small diameter portion 31 a is slightly smaller than the diameter of the ball 32. The ball 32 does not come out of the tip opening 33 but is pressed by the spring 34 so as to remain in the tip opening 33.

  The structure of the coating mechanism portion 30 is as shown in the front view of FIG. 4A and the front sectional view of FIG. 4B. As an assembling method, the ball 32 is first inserted from the large diameter portion 31a side, and then The liquid holding body 35 is accommodated inside the cylindrical portion 36a and the projecting portion 36b through the cylindrical portion 36a of the partition plate 36, and the inner end of the spring 34 is fitted to the outer side of the cylindrical portion 36a. The partition plate 36 is placed near the boundary between the large-diameter portion 31c and the tapered portion 31b by being put inside the portion 31a and contacting the portion of the locking piece 37 provided near the boundary with the tapered portion 31b inside the large-diameter portion 31c. Then, the partition plate 36 is fixed by sandwiching the peripheral edge of the partition plate 36 between the distal end of the outer screw portion 12 (to be described later) of the cylindrical main body 10 and the locking piece 37, and in this state, the spring 34 is moved to the ball 32. Is pressed.

  When applying the cosmetic liquid directly onto the skin using the application mechanism unit 30, the ball 32 is slightly behind the tip opening 33 against the force of the spring 34 by pressing the ball 32 exposed on the surface against the skin. The ball 32 is rotated by retracting to the side and rolling on the skin, and the ball surface rotates while contacting the liquid holder 35 impregnated with the cosmetic liquid inside the small-diameter portion 31 a. The cosmetic liquid is applied to the skin.

  Although the liquid holder 35 is housed inside the spring 34 in the drawing, the liquid holder 35 is not limited to this portion, and can be housed inside the tapered portion 31b. The holding body 35 may be filled.

  On the outer periphery of the small-diameter portion 31a in the case 31, a ridge 38 that continuously protrudes in the circumferential direction of the outer diameter of the small-diameter portion 31a is provided, and has an action of locking a cap 50 described later. Further, an inner screw 39 for detachably joining the cylindrical main body 10 is provided on the inner diameter side of the large diameter portion 31c.

  The small-diameter portion 31a, the tapered portion 31b, the large-diameter portion 31c, and the protrusion 38 in the case 31 can be formed at a time by integral molding of synthetic resin.

  Next, in order to complete the portable container for cosmetics of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, the spray mechanism 20 and the application mechanism are used by using the external screw portions 11 and 12 at both ends of the cylindrical main body 10. A part 30 is attached.

  The spray mechanism 20 is attached to the cylindrical main body 10 by inserting the tube 24 from the outer threaded portion 11 side of the cylindrical main body 10 into the inside, and an inner screw (see FIG. (Not shown) is screwed onto the external thread portion 11 and attached.

  The application mechanism 30 is attached to the cylindrical main body 10 by screwing the inner screw 39 shown in FIG. 4B to the outer screw 12 of the cylindrical main body 10. Then, the partition plate 36 is pushed in as the outer screw portion 12 is screwed into the inner screw 39 inside the case 31, and finally the peripheral portion of the partition plate 36 is brought into contact with the locking piece 37 and the tip of the outer screw portion 12. It will be pinched and fixed.

  When assembled as described above, the configuration shown in FIG. 6 is obtained, and when carrying, the pressing portion 22 of the spray mechanism portion 20 is inadvertently pushed, or another article touches the ball 32 of the coating mechanism portion 30. In order to prevent this, the caps 40 and 50 are put on both mechanism parts.

  The spray mechanism part 20 is covered with a cap 40, and the pressing part 22 is protected by a well-known means such as an inner wall of the cap 40 fitted to the base part 21 (not shown). Note that a clip 41 may be provided as another example of the cap in the figure (cap 40 ') so that it can be carried by being engaged with a pocket or the like.

  On the other hand, the cap 50 is put on the coating mechanism 30. The cap 50 is provided with a cylindrical body 51 having a size covering the small diameter portion 31a of the coating mechanism section 30 on the inner side. When the small diameter portion 31a is fitted into the inner wall of the cylindrical body 51, the small diameter portion A groove 52 is provided so that the protrusion 38 provided on 31a can be lightly engaged.

  The portable cosmetic container according to the present invention configured as described above is as shown in FIG. 7, and the cosmetic liquid to be carried is first formed into a cylindrical shape by either spraying mechanism part 20 or application mechanism part 30. Rotate and remove from the main body 10 in the loosening direction of the screw, introduce the cosmetic liquid with the opening of the cylindrical main body 10 up, and then place the spray mechanism part 20 or the application mechanism part 30 on the screw part 11 of the cylindrical main body 10 or 112 is screwed to close the opening.

  For example, when a cosmetic liquid such as perfume is to be used by spraying, if the cap 40 is removed and the pressing mechanism 22 is pressed upward and the pressing portion 22 is pressed, the spray hole 23 can be used. Cosmetic liquid is sprayed.

  On the other hand, when applying the cosmetic liquid directly to the skin, the cosmetic liquid is applied to the skin by removing the cap 50 and rolling the application mechanism portion 30 downward while bringing the ball 32 into direct contact with the skin.

  In any of the above-described uses, the application mechanism 30 is on the lower side, and the cosmetic liquid stored in the cylindrical body 10 at that time passes through the partition plate 36 in the application mechanism 30 by gravity. Thus, the liquid holder 35 is replenished.

  On the other hand, the liquid holding body 35 does not exist on the cylindrical main body 10 side from the partition plate 36 and the cosmetic liquid remains in a liquid state, and the cosmetic liquid is used for spraying until the cosmetic liquid reaches the lower end of the tube 24 in FIG. can do.

  Further, since the ball 32 exposed downward when spraying is used or at other times is strongly pressed against the tip opening 33 of the small diameter portion 31a by the spring 34, leakage of the cosmetic liquid from the tip opening 33 is prevented. be able to.

  In addition, even if the cosmetic liquid leaks out from the tip opening 33 while being stored in the bag or the like, it stays in the cylindrical body 51 of the cap 50, so the inside of the bag or the like is soiled without knowing it. Can also be prevented.

  When the cosmetic liquid in the cylindrical main body 10 is used up, the spray mechanism unit 20 or the application mechanism unit 30 side is removed by unscrewing from the cylindrical main unit 10, and the cylindrical main unit 10 (on the external screw unit 12 side) is removed. Replenish the cosmetic liquid from the opening.

  In the case of this embodiment, both the spray mechanism unit 20 and the application mechanism unit 30 are detachable by screwing. However, if at least the application mechanism unit 30 side is detachable, for example, the cosmetic liquid to be used is different. When changing to a new one, the liquid holder 35 in the coating mechanism 30 can be replaced with a new one, which is convenient.

  As the procedure, first, when the inner screw 39 of the application mechanism portion 30 and the outer screw portion 12 of the cylindrical main body 10 are unscrewed and the application mechanism portion 30 is removed, the locking piece 37 is removed by the tip of the outer screw portion 12. The partition plate 36 that has been pushed and fixed to the side becomes free, and further, for example, a cross portion 36e of the protruding portion 36b of the partition plate 36 from the opening (on the inner screw 39 side) of the case 31 is appropriately provided as a means or jig. The partition plate 36 can be taken out from the case 31 together with the spring 34 and the liquid holding body 35 by hooking and pulling at, and after replacing the liquid holding body 35 with a new one, the partition plate 36 is fitted into the case 31 again. From here, it can be screwed into the cylindrical body 10.

  The configuration of the present invention is as described in the above embodiment. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment, and it is needless to say that the design can be changed as appropriate within the scope of the object of the present invention. Yes.
