The applicator 11 includes a shaft portion 9 that protrudes from the inside of the lid portion 2 toward the housing portion 3 side (downward in the drawing) of the container body 1, and an application body 10 provided at the tip of the shaft portion 9. .

  The shaft portion 9 has a cylindrical body having a smaller diameter than the lid portion 2, is configured to have a smaller diameter than the cylindrical hole of the inner plug portion 6, and can pass through the cylindrical hole. The application body 10 is a so-called applicator such as a brush, brush, brush, chip, comb, and the like, and here, a brush is used. This brush tip has a cross section orthogonal to the axial direction, that is, its outer shape (outer shape) is substantially circular.

  When the lid portion 2 is attached to the opening neck portion 4 of the container body 1 by screwing of the screws 5 and 7 (when the lid portion 2 is tightened), the shaft portion 9 is passed through the cylindrical hole of the inner plug portion 6 to the container. It enters into the storage part 3 of the main body 1, and the application body 10 is configured to be immersed in the liquid cosmetic L stored in the storage part 3.

  The inner plug portion 6 is formed by molding plastic, rubber, or the like, for example. Here, the inner plug portion 6 is formed by injection molding of plastic. As described above, the inner plug portion 6 has a tapered cylindrical shape, and has an annular collar portion 6a at the upper end thereof, and the inner plug portion 6 is located upward in the opening neck portion 4 of the container body 1. And is fixed to the opening neck 4 in a state in which the lower end surface of the collar 6a is in contact with the upper end surface of the opening neck 4. The lower end of the cylindrical hole of the inner plug portion 6 has a small diameter, and when the shaft portion 9 passes through the small diameter cylindrical hole 6b, it adheres around the shaft portion 9 due to the peripheral edge of the small diameter cylindrical hole 6b. The liquid cosmetic L is scraped off.

Here, the inside plug portion 6 in particular of this preferred embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2-7, the inner peripheral surface thereof is provided with an adjusting groove 6c extending vertically. A plurality (four in this case) of the adjustment grooves 6c are arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction, and are arranged facing each other.

  Hereinafter, the adjustment groove 6c will be described in detail. The adjustment groove 6c is provided from the upper end of the inner plug portion 6 to the middle in the axial direction so that the application body 10 can pass through the groove, and the circumferential width of the adjustment groove 6c is set in the application body 10. The extra liquid cosmetic L that has adhered is narrow enough to be squeezed when passing through the application body 10.

  Specifically, the shape of the adjustment groove 6c is configured to correspond to the outer shape of the application body 10, and more specifically, the inner peripheral surface of the adjustment groove 6c is a brush whose cross section is substantially circular. It is comprised by the substantially semicircle which becomes substantially half of the outer peripheral surface of a brush head in planar view so that it may match with the outer peripheral surface of this. The adjustment groove 6c is inclined so as to approach the axial center of the inner plug portion 6 from the upper end to the lower side, and the semicircular shape in plan view is gradually reduced in a similar shape.

Further, in the inner plug portion 6, a communication hole 6k having a rectangular cross section that connects the inner peripheral surface and the outer peripheral surface is provided in the middle of the adjustment groove 6c in the axial direction. In this communication hole 6k, the edge (edge) on the inner peripheral side forming the communication hole 6k is used for scraping off the excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10 (details will be described later). If this communication hole 6k only exhibits the function of scraping off the excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10, it is a recess (a recess that does not penetrate) from the inner peripheral surface of the inner plug portion 6 toward the radially outer side. ) good in, but in this preferred embodiment, since the molding material is a plastic, forced disconnect the core pin for forming the cylindrical hole of the inner plug portion 6 has a convex part for forming the recess on the outer peripheral surface in the axial direction Since there is a risk of parts being damaged, the outer peripheral surface (split mold; split mold) for forming the outer peripheral surface of the inner plug portion 6 reaches the inner peripheral surface of the inner plug portion here. Protrusions (which reach the outer peripheral surface of the core pin) are provided, and the communication holes 6k are formed.

  Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 4, 5, and 7, the adjustment groove 6 c is inclined so as to approach the axial center of the inner plug portion 6 from the upper side to the lower side, and has a substantially semicircular shape in plan view. A communication hole that communicates the inside and outside of the cylindrical hole with an inclined use surface 6d that has a width for squeezing excess liquid cosmetic L adhering to the application body 10 in a gradually decreasing shape and is a substantial use surface. The rectangular opening 6k continues so as to be parallel to the axial center of the inner plug portion 6, and as shown in FIG. 7, the inclined surface 6f that is an extension of the inclined use surface 6d through the rectangular opening. However, when the excessive liquid cosmetic L adhering to the application body 10 is squeezed, it is configured to continue and terminate as a surface that is not substantially used.

  2-7, between the adjustment grooves 6c, 6c aligned in the circumferential direction, the adjustment groove 6c is recessed in the radial direction to the same extent as the adjustment groove 6c, and the width in the circumferential direction is the adjustment groove. Grooves 6g each having a width approximately twice as large as the circumferential width of 6c are provided. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 7, the groove 6 g has an inclined inclined usage surface 6 d which is substantially the same as the inclined usage surface 6 d of the adjustment groove 6 c from the upper end toward the lower side. An inclined surface 6h having substantially the same length in the axial direction is followed by a surface 6i that is parallel to the axial center of the inner plug portion 6 and substantially the same length as the rectangular opening of the communication hole 6k. The inclined surface 6j is substantially the same as the inclined surface 6f of the adjustment groove 6c, and the inclined surface 6j is substantially the same in axial length as the inclined surface 6f.

  The groove 6g is for simply connecting the adjustment grooves 6c and 6c, and the width thereof is wide as described above, and is not a width that allows the application body 10 to pass through the groove up and down so that it can be squeezed. The surface is not used substantially.

  When such a cosmetic container 100 is used, from the state shown in FIG. 2, the user pulls up the lid 2 by lifting the lid 2 while releasing the screwing of the screws 5, 7. Remove from 1. At this time, the shaft portion 9 of the lid portion 2 passes through the small diameter cylindrical hole 6b of the inner plug portion 6, and the liquid cosmetic L attached around the shaft portion 9 is scraped by the peripheral edge of the hole forming the small diameter cylindrical hole 6b. Be dropped. However, since the outer diameter of the application body 10 is smaller than the outer diameter of the shaft portion 9, the excess liquid cosmetic L remains around the application body 10.

  In this state, as shown in FIG. 8, the lid portion 2 is pulled up so that the application body 10 passes through the adjustment groove 6 c provided on the inner peripheral surface of the inner plug portion 6. Specifically, the application body 10 is pulled up obliquely upward according to the inclination of the adjustment groove 6c.

  Then, since the width of the adjustment groove 6c of the inner plug portion 6 (the width of the inclined use surface 6d) is a width that can squeeze the excess liquid cosmetic L attached to the application body 10, the adjustment groove 6c The excess liquid cosmetic L can be squeezed out with the minimum number of times without allowing the applied body 10 to enter and pass through many times. As a result, the excess liquid cosmetic L of the applied body 10 can be easily scraped off. The shape of the application body 10 can be easily adjusted.

  Further, when the adjustment groove 6c is used, an edge on the inner periphery side of the hole forming the communication hole 6k of the inner plug portion 6 is utilized, and an edge (especially an upper end edge) on the inner periphery side of the hole. When the application body 10 is brought into contact with (pressed against) the excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10 can be scraped off more easily, and the shape of the application body 10 can be more easily adjusted.

In addition, when the adjustment groove 6c is used, since a plurality of adjustment grooves 6c are provided along the circumferential direction, any adjustment groove 6c can be narrowed in the same manner, and the usability can be improved. in some adjusting groove 6c, the diaphragm (the substantially semicircular cross-section in this reference embodiment) on one side of the coating member 10, then, is almost spin coating member 10 (lid 2) around the axis (turning) that without opposite Since the remaining one side of the application body 10 can be squeezed by another adjustment groove 6c, excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10 can be scraped off more easily, and the shape of the application body 10 can be more easily adjusted. Can do.

  Further, since the adjustment groove 6 c is configured in a shape corresponding to the outer shape of the application body 10, the excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10 can be scraped off more easily. Can be arranged more easily.

  Further, since the adjustment groove 6c is inclined so as to approach the axial center of the inner plug portion 6 from the upper side to the lower side, the operation of causing the application body 10 to enter and pass through the adjustment groove 6c is impossible. It can be done with no natural posture (without standing upright).

  Further, the width of the adjustment groove 6c is different between the upper part and the lower part. Here, since the lower part is narrowed, it is possible to reliably squeeze the excess liquid cosmetic on the application body 10 on the narrowed side.

  Then, when the excess liquid cosmetic L of the application body 10 is scraped off and the shape of the application body 10 is adjusted in this way, the application body 10 applies the liquid cosmetic L to the application portion, and the application is performed. When the process is completed, the lid 2 is turned in the opposite direction to that at the time of removal, and the lid 2 is mounted on the container body 1 while the screws 5 and 7 are screwed together.

Thus, in this reference embodiment, it is possible to drop easily scraped excess liquid cosmetic L of coating member 10, it is possible to adjust the shape of the coating member 10 easily, I wanted a beautiful makeup Can be applied.
