[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a sprinkling container for powders such as fine powder artificial hair (so-called powder hair).

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, fine hair-like powder has been sprinkled onto thin portions of hair and attached, or colored powder has been sprinkled on a paper surface coated with an adhesive to produce a painting. These powders have a spout and may be sold in powder containers that are used by shaking them by hand.However, depending on the amount of the powder, there is a problem that more or less powder is discharged at a time. . In order to gently and stably disperse the powder, there has been provided an apparatus in which a powder container is integrally attached to a vibration device using a motor.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, in this type, since the vibrating device and the powder container are provided integrally and are disposable, once the powder is used up, all the power sources still usable and the case for storing them are discarded. It had to be. Therefore, the cost is inevitably high and the burden on the user is large, and the impact on the global environment is also a concern. The present invention aims to solve such a problem.

[0004]

Means and Action for Solving the Problems

 An object of the present invention is to provide a vibrating device including a driving source for rotating a rotating shaft, an eccentric weight attached to the rotating shaft, and a switch for turning on / off the driving source, which is filled with powder. This is achieved by providing a powder sprinkling container characterized in that a cartridge having a powder spouting port is detachably provided.

Since the cartridge filled with the powder is detachably provided to the vibrating device, when the powder runs out, only the cartridge can be removed from the vibrating device and discarded. By attaching it to the device, it can be used continuously. Therefore, after the user purchases this powder sprinkling container, it is possible to continue using it by simply replacing the cartridge, which has less economic burden and has less impact on the global environment. It works.

[0006] Since the cartridge is of an independent sealed type, there is no danger of powder scattering when the cartridge is attached to or detached from the vibration device. Powder is difficult to handle. In particular, when the powder is powder hair, it easily enters the eyes of clothing. Therefore, handling of such a cartridge in which powder is sealed is extremely easy, clean and convenient.

As the drive source, a mainspring or a motor can be used. In the former, it is assumed that the driving source is a mainspring connected to a rotating shaft via a gear train, and the switch is a latch member attached to the gear train. When the mainspring is wound, the locking member is engaged with the gear train to accumulate energy. When the engagement between the locking member as a switch and the gear train is released, the mainspring rewinds, but the speed is reduced via the gear train, and the rotating shaft with the eccentric weight attached is rotated to generate stable vibration. is there. The driving source using such a mainspring is an advanced technology and can withstand repeated use.

[0008] The drive source may be a motor and a battery wired to the motor, and the switch may be a power switch provided between the motor and the battery. When the power switch is turned ON, the motor rotates and rotates the rotating shaft on which the eccentric weight is attached. In this embodiment, it is preferable that the batteries be replaceable. This is because the driving source is used permanently. Conventionally, the power source had to be discarded when the powder was used up (life span of about three months). If the battery has been stored in a warehouse for a long time, the battery has deteriorated and its life has been shortened, and the powder remains, but it cannot be used until the end, and it must be disposed of. Such a problem is solved by the powder sprinkling container. In addition, a rechargeable battery other than a battery may be used, or power may be obtained directly from a home power supply.

In both the mainspring and the motor, when the rotating shaft is rotated, the eccentric weight fixed to the rotating shaft rotates to generate vibration, and the vibration device vibrates, whereby the vibration is transmitted to the cartridge. The powder vibrates in the cartridge and is evenly dispensed from the spout. Even if the powder is tightly packed or hardened by moisture, it can be finely separated by vibration and used cleanly to the end. It is preferable that a cap capable of covering the opening is attached to the cartridge.

In order to provide the cartridge detachably with respect to the vibrating device, it is preferable that a concave portion or a protrusion is provided in the vibrating device, and a fitting portion that fits the concave portion or the protrusion is provided on the cartridge side. I can do it. When the concave portion is provided on the vibrating device side, the fitting portion on the cartridge side is a projection matching the concave portion, and when the projection is provided on the vibrating device side, the fitting portion on the cartridge side is the protruding portion. It is a concave part that fits. In the latter case, since the concave portion has a protruding shape inside the cartridge, it is expected that the protrusion will act to agitate the powder during vibration.

Alternatively, the vibration device may be provided with a screw thread, and a screw thread to be screwed into the screw thread may be provided on the cartridge side, so that both can be detachably provided. They are attached and detached by twisting the cartridge. In addition, it is also possible to use a magnet or a hook-and-loop fastener as a means for attaching and detaching the vibration device and the cartridge, and it is also possible to integrate the vibration device and the cartridge by pressing them with a rubber band.

Next, two or more cartridges can be attached to one vibration device. It is preferable that a plurality of powders having different colors can be attached to one vibration device. In order to use different colors, it is necessary to reduce the trouble of replacing cartridges as much as possible. When two or more cartridges are to be mounted, three cartridges may be arranged side by side on one vibrating device, for example, three times symmetrically, or separate cartridges may be provided on both ends of one vibrating device, for example. May be attached. Alternatively, the overall shape may not be particularly limited to a rod shape.

It is characterized in that it can be detachably attached to the. That is, a projection 13 is formed on the top of a motor case 11 described later, and this projection 13 is designed so as to be able to fit into a concave portion 21 formed on the bottom of the cartridge 2. It is detachable from the vibration device unit 1.

The vibrating device 1 includes a battery case 10 and a motor case 11, both of which are fitted and integrated by their flange portions 12. At this time, the battery case 10 is rotatable with respect to the motor case 11. A substantially cylindrical spacer 14 is inserted into the battery case 10, and the battery 4 is accommodated in the center of the spacer. A coil spring 3 for resiliently contacting a negative contact of the battery 4 is attached to the bottom of the battery case 10. The coil spring 3 is a lead piece 30 extending toward the flange 12 along the inner wall of the battery case 10. It is connected to the.

A motor 5 fixed by a spacer is accommodated in the motor case 11, and one contact 52 of the motor 5 is placed at a position facing the positive contact of the battery 4, and the other contact 52 53 is located at a position where it can come into contact with the lead piece 30. Therefore, when the battery case 10 is rotated with respect to the motor case 11, the lead piece 30 is rotated and comes into contact with the other contact 53 of the motor 5, so that the motor 5 is turned on. An eccentric weight 51 is attached to the rotating shaft 50 of the motor 5.

The cartridge 2 is composed of a powder container 20 and a swing-out cap 22, both of which are fitted and adhered to each other by a flange 23.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view schematically showing a state where the overcap 25 is removed.

Now, when the battery case 10 is rotated with respect to the motor case 11, it is understood by touch that the lead piece 30 has come into contact with the contact 53, and the motor 5 rotates to rotate the eccentric weight 51. Vibration occurs. At this time, if the overcap 25 is removed and the spouting port 24 is directed downward, the powder filled in the powder container 20 is spouted out of the spouting port 24 as if it were shaking. It is.

When the powder in the powder container 20 has been used up, the powder container 20 may be removed from the vibrating unit 1 by pulling it out, and replaced with a new powder container 20. Therefore, it is possible to continue using the cartridge 2 only by replacing it, and the economical burden is small and the environment is friendly to the global environment. As the powders to be filled in the powder container 20, in addition to the above-mentioned colored powder for producing a picture, a hair-like powder (powder hair) to be attached to a thin part of hair can be optionally used. In the case of powder hair, colored hair can also be used.
