Description

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

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

These portable containers with a spray device spray the stored cosmetic liquid by pushing the pressing part of the head and using the pushing force. First, the pressing part is pushed in, and when the pressing part returns, a dropper is used. The cosmetic liquid is pulled up based on the principle of the above, and the cosmetic liquid pulled up by pressing the pressing part for the second time is sprayed from the spray hole. It is possible and convenient to carry.

In addition, in the above spraying method, the cosmetic liquid is sprayed in the air in addition to the spray to the target position, so that it may be known to the surroundings that the perfume was used, or the cosmetic liquid may be wasted. In some cases, spraying perfume may hesitate. Therefore, there is also a method 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 Documents 3 and 4).

In the above-mentioned application type, the cosmetic solution is applied directly to the skin by immersing the cosmetic solution in a porous body such as felt, contacting the felt or the like on the inside, and pressing a ball exposed to the outside on the opposite side against the skin and rolling it. I tried to do it.

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

Further, even if the same cosmetic liquid is used, it is necessary to put it in each of the two types of containers, which is troublesome.

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems and to provide a portable container for cosmetic liquid that can be used in both a spray type and a coating type in one container.

In order to solve the above problem, the invention of claim 1 is a cylindrical body in which one end of a tubular body having both ends open for storing the cosmetic liquid is sealed by a spray mechanism portion having a function of spraying the cosmetic liquid by a pressing operation. The other end of the main body is closed by a coating mechanism portion having a function of applying cosmetic liquid via a ball that can rotate in all directions exposed to the outside, and the coating mechanism portion is removable from the tubular main body . In the portable container for cosmetic liquid , the coating mechanism portion has a partition plate that partitions the inside of the tubular main body and the inside of the coating mechanism portion when connected to the tubular main body, and the partition plate is The cylinder has a cylindrical portion that protrudes inward of the coating mechanism portion, and a protrusion that conducts with the cylindrical portion and protrudes from the partition plate to the inside of the tubular body to allow passage of liquid. A spring for pressing the ball to the outside is fitted on the outside of the portion, and one end thereof is in contact with the ball and the other end has a liquid holder fitted inside the cylindrical portion and the protrusion portion. A portable container for cosmetic liquid.

Further, according to the second aspect of the present invention, in the portable container for cosmetic liquid according to the first aspect, the coating mechanism portion has a large diameter portion having substantially the same diameter as the tubular body and a tip having a diameter slightly larger than that of the ball. A small-diameter portion that exposes a part of the surface of the ball is provided from the opening, and has a removable cap that covers these coating mechanism portions. The spring and the liquid holder are housed in the small-diameter portion. The cap has an open tubular body that covers the small diameter portion inside, and when closed by the cap, the engagement is fixed by the engaging portion provided between the small diameter portion and the tubular body. It is characterized by the configuration to be used.

As described above, according to the invention of claim 1, since the spray type and the coating type portable containers are combined into one, both types can be used properly depending on the time and place, and it is compact and convenient to carry.

In addition, since both 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 method is mainly used. The cosmetic solution inside can be fully used up.

Further, at least the coating mechanism portion can be detached from the tubular body, so that the cosmetic liquid can be easily replenished or replaced, and the liquid holding body in the coating mechanism portion can be easily replaced.

Further , since the coating mechanism portion has a liquid holder only on the ball side of the partition plate, most of the cosmetic liquid on the tubular body side of the partition plate is stored in the tubular body as it is. It is possible to prevent the cosmetic liquid for spraying from being absorbed by the liquid holder for application and not being sprayed.

In addition, since the coating mechanism is impregnated with the cosmetic liquid by the liquid holder and the balls are pressed outward by the spring, it is possible to prevent the cosmetic liquid from leaking from the opening where the balls are exposed in the coating mechanism. Can be done.

Next, according to the invention of claim 2 , in addition to the effect of the invention of claim 1, by providing a small diameter portion having a diameter slightly larger than that of the ball and exposing a part of the surface of the ball from the tip opening. The cosmetic liquid reaches the ball through a small diameter portion in which the spring and the liquid holder are housed, so that the leakage of the cosmetic liquid can be further reduced.

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

The partition plate 36 is as shown in the perspective view of FIGS. 3A and 3B, and the cylindrical portion 36a is projected from the central portion of the disk having substantially the same diameter as the inside of the large diameter portion 31c. The inside of the spring 34 is fitted and joined to the outside of the cylindrical portion 36a, and the liquid holder 35 is housed inside the cylindrical portion 36a.

Further, a projecting portion 36b is projected on the opposite side of the cylindrical portion 36a of the partition plate 36, and the projecting portions 36b are provided around four openings communicating with the cylindrical portion 36a at the base of the partition plate 36. A pillar 36c is erected, and a ring portion 36d connecting the tips of adjacent pillars 36c and a cross portion 36e connecting the tips of the opposing pillars 36c are formed. It protrudes, and through the protrusion 36b, the cosmetic liquid in the tubular main body 10 becomes sufficiently in contact with the liquid holding body 35.

The liquid holding body 35 is prevented from falling out to the tubular 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. It is not limited to this, and various structures can be adopted. In short, the shape and the like are adjusted in consideration of the degree of impregnation of the cosmetic liquid from the tubular body 10 side into the liquid holding portion 35 as well as preventing the liquid holding body 35 from coming off. And design it. For example, one or a plurality of small holes may be provided in the protruding portion 36b, and even 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 and can be pressed by the spring 34.

Further, the inner diameter of the small diameter portion 31a is slightly larger than that of the ball 32 to the extent that the ball 32 can move in the length direction, while the tip opening 33 of the small diameter portion 31a is slightly smaller than the diameter of the ball 32. , The ball 32 does not go out from the tip opening 33, but is pressed by the spring 34 and stays 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 assembly method, first insert the ball 32 from the large diameter portion 31a side, and then continue. The liquid holding body 35 is housed inside the cylindrical portion 36a and the protruding portion 36b through the cylindrical portion 36a of the partition plate 36, the inner end of the spring 34 is fitted to the outside of the cylindrical portion 36a, and this assembly has a small diameter with the spring 34 at the head. The partition plate 36 is placed inside the large diameter portion 31a and abuts on the portion of the locking piece 37 provided near the boundary with the tapered portion 31b inside the large diameter portion 31c so that the partition plate 36 is placed near the boundary between the large diameter portion 31c and the tapered portion 31b. The partition plate 36 is fixed by sandwiching the peripheral edge portion of the partition plate 36 between the tip of the external screw portion 12 described later of the tubular main body 10 and the locking piece 37, and the spring 34 is in this state as the ball 32. Is being pressed.

When the cosmetic liquid is directly applied to the skin using the application mechanism portion 30, the ball 32 exposed on the surface is pressed against the skin so that the ball 32 is slightly deeper than the tip opening 33 against the force of the spring 34. The ball 32 rotates by retracting to the side and further rolling on the skin, and the surface of the ball rotates while in contact with the liquid holder 35 impregnated with the cosmetic liquid inside the small diameter portion 31a, and is rotated via the ball 32. The cosmetic liquid will be applied to the skin.

Although the liquid holding body 35 is stored inside the spring 34 in the drawing, it can be stored not only in this portion but also inside the tapered portion 31b, that is, the liquid is stored on the terminal side of the partition plate 36 in the case 31. The retainer 35 may be filled.

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

The small diameter portion 31a, the tapered portion 31b, the large diameter portion 31c, and the ridge 38 in these cases 31 can be integrally molded with synthetic resin at one time.

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