BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container for storing creamy cosmetics such as shampoos and rinses.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A container body which stands up from the upper end of an elastically squeezable body via a shoulder and an inner cylinder fitted on the outer surface of the mouth and neck is provided at the center of a top wall and the body. And a cap having an outer cylinder having a diameter substantially the same as the outer diameter of the outer wall of the top wall, and a cap hanging down from the outer periphery of the top wall. Storage containers are known. The reason for raising the container in an inverted state is to make it possible to use up the container with almost no residual storage when the container is discarded.

[0003]

The above-mentioned inverted cream-like cosmetic storage container is often used in a bathroom or the like, and scattered hot water or the like travels along the body of the container, and the upper end of the body and the cap outer cylinder. When the cap is removed for the use of stored items, water in the cap drips. There is no particular problem if such a situation is during bathing, but if it occurs in another place after a lapse of time after bathing, the water that has come out of the cap will wet the clothes or fall to the feet and wet the surroundings This will cause consumer dissatisfaction.

According to the present invention, a groove is formed in a top wall portion between the inner and outer cylinders, and a drain hole is formed in the groove. Hot water flowing down to the inner surface of the top wall portion flows out of the drain hole. The above-mentioned drawback is eliminated by making the inner surface of the top wall portion tapered so as to facilitate the operation.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A container body 1 which stands up from a top end of an elastically squeezable body 2 via a shoulder 3 to a mouth and neck 4.
And an outer cylinder 8 having an outer diameter substantially the same as the outer diameter of the top wall 6 from the center of the top wall 6 where the inner cylinder 7 fitted to the outer surface of the mouth and neck portion is provided horizontally. A container 5 comprising a cap 5 which hangs down and extends a short length of the outer cylinder 8 above the top wall, wherein the upper and lower cylinders 7 are provided so as to stand upside down with the upper surface of the outer cylinder 8 as a ground surface. A narrow groove 9 is provided around a part of the upper surface of the top wall portion 6a between the upper and lower portions 8, and an appropriate number of drain holes 10 are formed in the bottom or side wall of the narrow groove.
The inner wall surface of the top wall portion 6a was formed as a tapered surface having a high groove edge side of the narrow groove, and a part of the upper end of the tapered surface was formed at a part of a hole edge of the drain hole 10.

[0006]

As shown in FIG. 1, when hot water adheres to the outer surface of the container body 2 in a state where the container stands upright with the upper surface of the outer cylinder 8 of the cap as the ground surface, the hot water is applied to the outer surface of the body. 1 to the upper end of the torso (the lower end in FIG. 1).
The hot and cold water that has entered the cap,
8, the inner surface of the top wall portion 6a flows to the groove side because the narrow side edge of the narrow groove 9 provided on the top surface of the top wall portion 6a is high (low in the inverted state in FIG. 1). It flows out from the drain hole 10 formed in the side wall of the groove. The outflow is surely performed by the suction by the action of the surface tension of the water in the narrow groove 9, and the water in the narrow groove increases due to the suction to the floor or the like via the ground contact surface. leak.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS First, a first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described. Reference numeral 1 denotes a tubular container having a body 2 which can be elastically squeezed. Sealed. From the upper end of the body, a mouth-and-neck portion 4 for screwing the cap is erected through the shoulder portion 3.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a cap fitted to the container.
The cap has an inner cylinder 7 vertically suspended from the center of the top wall 6 provided horizontally and screwed to the outer surface of the mouth and neck, and an outer diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the container body from the outer periphery of the top wall. The tube 8 is suspended. The outer cylinder 8 has its upper end extending slightly above the outer periphery of the top wall 6 for convenience of drainage. Of the top wall portion 6a between the inner and outer cylinders 7, 8, a narrow groove 9 is formed on the upper surface of the inner cylinder side top wall portion.
And an appropriate number of drainage holes 10 are formed in the side walls of the narrow groove. The inner wall surface of the top wall portion 6a has a tapered surface with a high groove edge side of the narrow groove, and a part of the upper end of the tapered surface is formed at a part of the upper end edge of the drain hole 10.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment. In this embodiment, the narrow groove of the first embodiment is used as a shallow groove, a shallow groove 9 is formed on a top plate portion above the outer surface of the inner cylinder, and the shallow groove is formed. Drain hole 1 on bottom wall
0, and the inner wall surface of the top wall portion 6a is
The lower edge of the narrow groove is formed as a high tapered surface, and a green under the drain hole 10 is formed at a part of the upper end thereof.

FIG. 4 shows a third embodiment. In this embodiment, a shallow narrow groove 9 is formed on the outer peripheral side of the top wall portion 6a between the inner and outer cylinders.
And an appropriate number of drainage holes 10 are formed in the bottom wall of the groove. A blind plate 11 is provided on the inner surface of the outer cylinder below the portion. Also in this case, as in the case of FIG. 3, a part of the upper end of the tapered surface forms a part of a hole edge of the drain hole 10.

[0011]

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the above-described structure. In addition to the inner cylinder 7 fitted into the mouth and neck of the container body, the outer cylinder 8 having substantially the same outer diameter as the body of the container body is provided horizontally. In a creamy cosmetic storage container that hangs upside down by fitting a cap that hangs down from the wall 6 and extends the outer tube 8 shortly above the top wall, the inner and outer tubes 7 and 8 are interposed. Top wall part 6a
A narrow groove 9 is provided on a part of the upper surface of the groove, and a drain hole 10 is formed in a bottom wall or a side wall of the narrow groove. This makes it possible to make the drain hole inconspicuous, and the narrow groove 9 is formed on the top wall 6.
Since the cap is provided on the upper surface, the decorativeness of the cap can be enhanced.
The groove green side has a high tapered surface and a part of the tapered surface is formed at a part of the hole edge of the drain hole 10. Therefore, even when hot water enters the cap when the container is used in a bathroom or the like, the hot and cold water is Flows out through the drain hole 10 along the tapered surface, and the outflow is performed by sucking the water in the cap by the action of the surface tension of the water in the narrow groove 9. Therefore, when the cap is removed, water does not flow out from the inside of the cap, so that the dissatisfaction of the consumer as in the conventional example described above can be resolved.
