DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a net-filled refill container for accommodating powdered cosmetics, and in particular, does not impose a large burden on the net even if the cosmetic is strongly rubbed against the net frame, and is durable and durable. The present invention relates to a net-filled refill container having excellent usability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art At present, powdery cosmetics such as foundations and white powders are provided with a mesh body inside a frame at an opening at an upper portion of a container body as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-289917. Sold in a refill container equipped with a net frame. Such a refill container is used in a state of being stored in a compact container, and when the cosmetic of the container body is used up, the compact container can be used again by refilling a new refill container.

[0003] Such a refill container can prevent scattering of powder cosmetics by a mesh, and can be used by attaching an appropriate amount of powder cosmetic to a puff through a mesh of the mesh.

[0004] This refill container is an inner plate (container body).
And a mesh frame composed of an annular frame (frame) and a mesh fabric (net). A cylindrical projection (annular projection) is formed at the upper end of the opening of the inner plate. When the inner plate and the mesh frame are engaged with each other, the cylindrical projection is formed inside the inward flange of the annular frame. It is fitted inside the peripheral portion, and prevents the mesh fabric from being pressed upward to produce a step with the annular frame.

[0005]

However, when the user takes out the cosmetic from the refill container, the refill container is repeatedly used to loosen the net because the puff is rubbed against the net. Get out. For this reason, when the frequency of use increases, a step occurs with the frame body,
There is a problem that a puff is caught or cosmetics accumulate on these steps, so that a good feeling of use cannot be maintained until the end.

In the above-described conventional refill container, the annular projection of the container body presses the net upward, but the purpose is to eliminate the step between the net and the frame, and to make the net elastic. I do not have the idea of supporting with sexuality. For this reason,
Each time the refill container is used repeatedly, a burden is imposed on the mesh, and the disadvantage that the mesh is loosened and falls into the frame cannot be avoided.

On the other hand, it is conceivable to simply form the annular projection with a material having elasticity. However, in this case as well, when the mesh is pressed many times by the puff, the annular projection is pulled inward, and the annular projection is pulled inward. Depending on the shape and thickness of the net, the annular projection is deformed, and the problem that the net body is loosened cannot be completely solved.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a refill container capable of preventing a net of a net frame from being loosened even when a refill container is repeatedly used and maintaining a good feeling of use to the end. Aim.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG.
This will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of the refill container according to the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is a side sectional view of the refill container, and FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a compact container storing the refill container.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a replaceable refill container A is housed in a compact container 5 (see FIG. 3).
It comprises a mesh frame 2, a projecting ring 3 sandwiched between the container body 1 and the mesh frame 2, and a casing 4 in which these are fitted (see FIG. 1). The cosmetic K stored in the container body 1 is a powdery cosmetic such as a foundation or white powder, or a putty-like cosmetic containing a little moisture.

The container body 1 is a dish-shaped container, and has a flat bottom 1a, a peripheral side wall 1b bulging outward in a U-shaped cross section,
And an annular body 1d attached to the outer periphery of the opening 1c. Bottom 1a, peripheral side wall 1 of container body 1
The part b is integrally formed of a synthetic resin material having flexibility, for example, an elastomer material such as urethane. Therefore, when the container body 1 is pressed from above, the peripheral side wall 1b is crushed so as to be folded, and the bottom portion 1a can push the stored cosmetic K upward.

The annular body 1d of the container body 1 is formed of a relatively rigid synthetic resin such as ABS, and has an opening 1c.
It is connected to the outer flange 1i on the outer periphery by insert molding. This annular body 1d has a U-shaped cross section,
f is formed, and a plurality of inward claws 1e are formed in the groove over the entire circumference.

The opening 1c of the container body 1 is formed with a ring supporting portion 1g for supporting the protruding ring 3 described later in detail. The ring support 1g is formed over the entire circumference of the opening 1c and is formed integrally with the opening 1c of the container body 1 by an elastomer resin, and therefore has sufficient elasticity. A space S is formed between the outer side of the ring support portion 1g and the wall portion 1h of the outer flange 1i, and serves as a movable space for the projecting ring 3 described later.

The net frame 2 has a structure in which a sheet-like net 2b is stretched inside a locking ring 2a which is a circular frame.
The net frame 2 is formed by insert molding in which a net 2b cut into a circular shape is placed in a mold and integrated with each other during injection molding of the locking ring 2a. The mesh body 2b is fixed to an intermediate portion in the thickness direction of the locking ring 2a (see FIG. 4 described later), and when the mesh frame 2 is not attached to the container body 1, the mesh ring 2a is Has a step.

The locking ring 2a of the mesh frame 2 has substantially the same diameter as the opening 1c of the container body 1, and a claw 2c serving as a locking projection is formed on the lower surface of the locking ring 2a. The claw 2c is an outward claw 2c having a projection formed outward, and the outward claw 2c is formed without interruption on the entire circumference of the locking ring 2a. Further, a step portion 2d for fitting the protruding ring 3 is formed on the lower surface of the locking ring 2a.

The projecting ring 3 has a vertical side 3
It is an annular body formed into an L-shaped cross section by a and the horizontal side 3b. The vertical side 3a has substantially the same diameter as the inner diameter of the locking ring 2a of the mesh frame 2. When the projecting ring 3 is sandwiched between the mesh frame 2 and the container body 1, the vertical side 3a of the projecting ring 3 becomes A vertical side 3 of the projecting ring 3 is fitted inside the locking ring 2a of the net frame 2.
a pushes up the net 2b upward.

The protruding ring 3 is made of a synthetic resin having high rigidity, for example, polypropylene, and the protruding ring 3 itself is deformed even when the mesh body 2b is pressed by a makeup tool 6 such as a puff as described later. Never.

When the mesh frame 2 is attached to the opening 1c of the container body 1 so as to sandwich the projecting ring 3, the projecting ring 3 is held by the ring supporting portion 1g of the container body 1 to form the mesh 2b.
In order to push up the boundary with the step with the locking ring 2a,
The net 2b rises horizontally as a whole, and the net 2b
Will be located higher.

At this time, the outward claws 2c of the net frame 2 are fitted into the grooves 1f in the upper portion of the container body 1, and the outward claws 2c are meshed with the inward claws 1e. Therefore, the outward claws 2c of the mesh frame 2 and the inward claws 1e of the container body 1 firmly fix the two, and the outward claws 2c of the mesh frame 2 are fitted into the grooves 1f, and the side surfaces of the claws 1d are formed into one ring. Due to the close contact with the portion, it is possible to reliably prevent the cosmetic K stored in the container body 1 from leaking from the joint between the two.

The casing 4 is a holding container having a simple shape composed of a bottom 4a and a peripheral side 4b. The center of the bottom 4a is raised in a trapezoidal shape to form a push-up 4c. The push-up portion 4c functions to push up the bottom surface of the container body 1 and push out the cosmetic material K to the surface of the mesh frame 2 when the makeup tool 6 presses the mesh frame 2 during use of the compact container (described later). (See FIG. 4B).

The container body 1 and the mesh frame 2 are engaged with the inward claws 1e and the outward claws 2c, and the refill container A is formed by fitting this into the casing 4. The bottom surface of the container body 1 and the push-up portion 4c of the casing 4 are adhered to each other with an adhesive (not shown) so that the container body 1 and the net frame 2 do not fall off the casing 4.

As shown in FIG. 3, the refill container A described above is accommodated in a compact container 5. The compact container 5 is composed of a lid 5A and a container body 5B assembled. The lid 5A and the container body 5B have hinge portions 5a and 5b at one end, and locking projections 5c and 5c at the other end.
d is formed. And these hinge parts 5a, 5
b, the lid 5A is connected to the container body 5B.
And a locking projection 5c,
By engaging 5d, the closed state can be maintained.

The refill container A described above is stored in a storage portion 5e formed in the container body 5B of the compact container 5. The size of the storage portion 5e of the compact container is substantially the same as the size of the refill container A, and is designed so that there is no play so as not to rattle in the horizontal direction at the time of use. Therefore, active engagement such as bonding is not performed. A hole 5f for pushing up the refill container is formed at the bottom of the container body 5B of the compact container 5. When replacing the refill container A, the refill container A is pushed up through a thin rod such as a pin into the hole 5f. It has a structure that can be.

On the back surface of the lid 5A of the compact container 5,
A packing 5g, which is a sheet member having elasticity, is attached. By closing the lid 5A, the packing 5g is pressed against the upper surface of the mesh frame 2 of the refill container A, thereby closing the mesh of the mesh body 2b over the entirety and reliably preventing the cosmetic K from leaking. can do.

Since the net 2b is elastically supported by the projecting ring 3 of the container body 1, the net 2b is
g and the protruding ring 3 sandwich it from both sides in the vertical direction, so that extremely high adhesion can be maintained. In the conventional container body, the peripheral side wall 1b is deformed to have elasticity, but when the cosmetic K is sufficiently sealed in the container body, when the cosmetic K is sealed, the cosmetic K prevents the deformation of the container body. , Its elasticity cannot be expected. On the other hand, the refill container according to the present invention includes the peripheral side wall 1b of the container body 1.
Even if does not exhibit elasticity, since the projecting ring 3 exhibits elasticity by the action of the ring supporting portion 1g alone, the close contact with the lid 5A of the compact container 5 can be enhanced as described above. .

The operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4A is a partial cross-sectional view of the refill container in a normal state, and FIG. 4B is a partial cross-sectional view of the refill container in a state in which a mesh frame is pressed by a makeup tool.

First, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), in the normal state of the refill container A, the projecting ring 3 of the container body 1 pushes up the mesh 2b of the mesh frame 2 from below, and the inside of the locking ring 2a The net 2b is elastically supported. The mesh body 2b is insert-molded and fixed at an intermediate portion in the thickness direction of the locking ring 2a (in the state of the net frame 2 alone, the upper surface of the mesh body 2b is fixed to the locking ring 2a).
The projection ring 3 pushes the net 2b up until the upper surface of the net 2b is higher than the upper surface of the locking ring 2a.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), when using the refill container A, the user puts on a puff or other makeup tool 6 with the mesh 2.
b) and rub it against the upper surface to apply an appropriate amount of cosmetic. At this time, the container body 1 is crushed and deformed downward by the pressing force of the makeup tool 6, but at the same time, the projecting ring 3 also moves downward, and the upper surface of the net 2b is also pushed down.

The lower part of the projecting ring 3 is elastically supported by the ring supporting portion 1g of the container body 1 and moves up and down in accordance with the pressing force of the makeup tool 6. At this time, the projecting ring 3 is connected to the stepped portion 2 d of the net frame 2 and the outer flange wall 1 of the container body 1.
The space S is moved up and down using h as a guide.

Therefore, the pressing force applied from the makeup tool 6 to the net 2b is absorbed by the projecting ring 3,
When the refill container A is used, no excessive load is applied to the net. Therefore, even if the number of uses is increased, the net 2b is not deformed and sags downward, and the initial feeling of use can be maintained until all the cosmetics are consumed.

In particular, in this embodiment, since the projecting ring 3 has rigidity, the projecting ring 3 itself does not deform. Since the projecting ring 3 moves only in a predetermined direction using the stepped portion 2d of the net frame 2 and the outer flange wall portion 1h of the container body as guides, the ring support portion 1g always receives only a vertical force and is high. Durability can be obtained.

The net 2b, which is elastically supported on the entire periphery by the protruding ring 3, is given an appropriate tension over the entire surface. When the mesh 2b is pressed by the makeup tool 6, the cushion is effective and the user is good. You can give a good feeling of use.

Further, when the mesh frame 2 is pressed by the makeup tool 6, the peripheral side wall 1b of the container body 1 is bent so as to be folded in a square shape, so that the peripheral edge of the opening 1c, that is, the ring 1d is Inward, and the inward claws 1e formed thereon move outward in the container. On the other hand, the pressing force of the makeup tool 6 deforms the mesh frame 2 of the refill container A so as to push the mesh frame 2 downward, so that the outward claws 2c formed on the peripheral edge of the mesh frame 2 bend outward and move inward of the container. Moving.

Therefore, when the refill container A is used,
The outward claws 2c and the inward claws 1e of the net frame 2 and the container body 1 move in the directions of each other and come into pressure contact with each other. For this reason, the engagement between the container main body 1 and the net frame 2 becomes stronger, and it is possible to prevent the net frame 2 from coming off the container main body 1 as in a conventional refill container.

In the refill container A described above, an example is shown in which the protruding ring is a rigid member, but the protruding ring itself may be configured to have elasticity.

In the refill container A, the container body and the net frame are housed in a casing to form a unit. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It is needless to say that the present invention can be applied to a refill container composed of only a refill container.

[0038]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Even if the refill container is repeatedly stroked with a makeup tool, the pressing force is absorbed by the protruding ring that elastically supports the net of the net frame, so that the net is not overloaded. Can be done. Therefore, even if used frequently,
It is possible to provide a refill container capable of maintaining a good feeling of use to the end without the net body being loosened by pressing of the makeup tool.

In particular, since the projecting ring is formed separately from the container body and has a structure for elastically supporting the projecting ring, the projecting ring can be formed of a material having rigidity. The problem of deformation can be solved.
