[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a compact that accommodates liquid or cream-shaped foundations.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In general, liquid or creamy cosmetics are stored in a bottle-shaped container or a tube container, which makes them bulky when carried, and it is inconvenient to carry a puff for transferring the cosmetics separately. Further, there is a problem in that the appearance is inferior to a conventional compact that stores powder cosmetics. Therefore, as a solution to these problems, for example, a compact for containing a liquid cosmetic as shown in FIG. 8 has been proposed. This compact has a container main body 2 having an accommodating portion 1 for a puff 1a on the upper surface, a lid 3 hinged to the rear end of the container main body 2, and a recess 2a on the bottom rear surface of the container main body 2. And a tube container 4 housed in. A cap 6 having a substantially L-shaped pouring hole 5 and rotatably attached to the rear end of the recess 2a is attached to the neck of the tube container 4. The cap 6 is attached to the fitting portion 9 at the rear end of the recess 2a so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction so as to close the hole 8 communicating with the housing 1 from the recess 2a. When not in use, the compact is stored in a state in which the tip of the tube container 4 is stopped by the engaging protrusion 7 on the front surface of the recess 2a. Then, at the time of use, as shown in FIG. 9, the tip portion of the tube container 4 is rotated downward so that the pouring hole 5 and the hole portion 8 of the cap 6 are in communication with each other. The liquid cosmetic is taken out from the container 1 of the container body 2 by pressing the body of the tube container 4 from above and below.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the above compact, the tip of the tube container 4 is disengaged from the engaging projection 7 of the recess 2a and pivoted due to vibration or the like applied while being carried, whereby the pouring hole 5 and the hole 8 are separated. It will be in a state of communication. For this reason, there arises an inconvenient situation in which the liquid cosmetic flows out into the housing portion 1 of the container body 2, and in some cases, the liquid cosmetic unexpectedly projects when the lid 3 is opened. Further, the amount of the liquid cosmetic material taken out from the tube container 4 into the container 1 is not constant depending on the pressing degree. For this reason, there is a drawback in that the amount of cosmetics taken out is too large to be used at one time and the cosmetics are wasted, or too small to press them again. Further, when applying makeup, the compact must be turned over once to disengage the tube container 4 from the engaging projections 7, then turned over again to restore the original state and press the tube container 4 to take out the liquid cosmetic. If not, the operation becomes complicated. Further, in the above compact, since the housing portion 1 is located below the tube container 4, the liquid cosmetic in the tube container 4 cannot be completely used up.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the liquid cosmetic can be taken out only when the liquid cosmetic is used, and the liquid cosmetic can be taken out one by one at a time. The purpose is to provide a compact that can be used up to the end.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the compact of the present invention comprises a container main body having a recess on the upper surface and a lid body hinged to the rear end of the container main body. A small container that can store a single-use amount of cosmetics on the bottom surface of the cosmetic container, with the neck opening of the container is placed sideways with the neck opening facing the cosmetic product outlet on the other end of the recess. A recess is provided, an inner cap is attached to the neck of the bottle container, a hole is formed in the ceiling of the inner cap, and the outer cap that closes the hole is rotatably attached to the inner cap. The outer cap is capped with a spout hole, and an operation lever for rotating the outer cap is extended on the outer peripheral surface of the outer cap to connect the spout hole and the hole. In this state, the lever protrudes upward from the recess and the hole is blocked by the outer cap. In state a configuration that the operating lever is set to fit within the recess.

[0006]

[Action]

 That is, the compact of this invention is such that a flexible bottle container containing liquid cosmetics inside has a neck opening at one end side of the concave portion of the container main body and a neck opening at the cosmetic take-out portion at the other end side of the concave portion. It is stored sideways. When not in use, this bottle container blocks the hole of the inner cap attached to its neck from the outer cap attached to the inner cap, so that the liquid cosmetics contained in the bottle container do not flow out. It is becoming like this. In this state, the operation piece extended on the outer peripheral surface of the outer cap is housed in the compact with the lid closed so that the outer cap does not rotate. When using, the outer cap is rotated to connect the hole and the pouring hole, and in this state, the upper surface of the body of the bottle container is pressed downward to apply the liquid cosmetic in the bottle container. Take out to the small concave part formed on the bottom of the material extraction part. Then, the liquid cosmetic thus taken out is transferred to a puff or the like and makeup is performed. In the state where the hole and the pouring hole are in communication with each other, the operation lever projects upward from the recess, and the lid cannot be closed. When the small concave portion is filled with the liquid cosmetic, the amount used for one makeup can be automatically taken out.

Next, this invention will be described in detail based on embodiments.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 shows a compact embodiment of the present invention. This compact is composed of a container body 11 which is vertically long and has a recess 11a formed on the upper surface thereof, and a lid 12 which is attached to the rear surface of a mirror 12a and hinged to the rear end of the container body 11. ..

As shown in FIG. 2, the recess 11a of the container body 11 has a front side formed on the cosmetic take-out portion 13 and a small concave portion 13a is provided on the bottom surface of the cosmetic take-out portion 13. At the rear side of the recess 11a, a bottle container 14 having flexibility and containing a liquid cosmetic inside is accommodated sideways with the neck opening 14a thereof facing the cosmetic take-out portion 13. The lower surface of the bottle container 14 is formed as a taper surface 15a that is inclined downward toward the neck opening 14a, so that the liquid cosmetic material easily collects near the neck opening 14a. A pressing portion 15b is formed by raising the upper side of the body portion of the bottle container 14. Reference numeral 16a is a rib for supporting the bottle container 14 and is formed on the rear side of the recess 11a. A ridge 16b for supporting the bottle container 14 is formed slightly on the center side from the rib 16a.

An inner cap 19 is attached to the neck of the bottle container 14. As shown in FIG. 3, the inner cap 19 has an opening 20 in the ceiling, and a seal cylinder 21 that fits in the neck of the container 14 is extended downward from the periphery of the opening 20 so that the opening 20 is closed. The heavenly cylindrical portion 22 extends upward from the peripheral edge. A hole 23 that communicates with the container 14 is formed in a peripheral wall portion of the ceiling-shaped cylindrical portion 22, and a fitting protrusion 24 is formed on the outer peripheral surface in the circumferential direction. Reference numeral 25 denotes an outer cap that closes the hole 23. The fitting groove 26 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the cap 25 is fitted into the fitting projection 24 so that the cap is rotatably attached to the above-mentioned cylindrical member 22. It is worn. As shown in FIG. 4, a pouring hole 27 communicating with the above-mentioned hole portion 23 is formed in the edge portion of the ceiling portion of the outer cap 25, and the peripheral edge of the hole wall of the pouring hole 27 is extended upward. And a dispensing cylinder 27a is formed.

On the outer peripheral surface of the outer cap 25, an operation lever 28 for rotating the outer cap 25 is extended. The length L of the operating lever 28 projects upward from the recess 11a (see FIG. 5) when the hole 23 and the pouring hole 27 are in communication with each other, and the lid 12 cannot be closed. In the state where the hole 23 is blocked by the outer cap 25, the hole 23 is set to fit in the recess 11a (see FIG. 6). Reference numeral 29 is a fixing portion for fixing the bottle container 14 in the recess 11a. The fixing portion 29 has the above-mentioned recess 11a by engaging an engaging projection (not shown in the figure) on the outer surface with an engaging recess (not shown in the figure) on the side surface of the recess 11a. It is attached to the approximate center along the width direction. A cutout concave portion 30 is formed on a side surface of the fixing portion 29 on the cosmetic take-out portion 13 side, and a hole portion 31 is formed in the inner surface of the cutout concave portion 30 as shown in FIG. The bottle cap 14 is attached to the fixing portion 29 by fitting the inner cap 19 capped on the bottle container 14 into the hole 31. Further, the left and right side surfaces of the cutout concave portion 30 are formed as upwardly inclined taper surfaces 32a and 32b as shown in FIG. The inclination angle Q of the left taper surface 32a is set to 30 degrees so that the hole 23 of the inner cap 19 is blocked by the outer cap 25 when the operation lever 28 is brought into contact with the left taper surface 32a. It is set. Further, the inclination angle X of the right tapered surface 32b is set to 60 degrees so that the hole 23 and the pouring hole 27 can be communicated with each other when the operation lever 28 is brought into contact with the right tapered surface 32b. It is fixed.

As shown in FIG. 7, the positioning protrusion 19 a formed on the outer periphery of the inner cap 19 is fitted into the notch 31 a formed in the hole wall of the hole 31 of the fixing portion 29. There is. As a result, the inner cap 19 is fixed to the bottle container 14 so that the position of the hole 23 does not move.

Further, an engaging claw 33 is vertically provided on the front surface of the lid 12 (returning to FIG. 1), and an engaging projection 35 on the inner surface of the recess 34 formed on the front surface of the container body 11 is provided. It is designed to engage with. Reference numeral 36 denotes an operation piece for releasing the engagement between the engagement claw 33 and the engagement projection 35 to open the lid body 12, and is attached to the recess 34 of the container body 11 so as to move forward and backward. There is.

When using the compact configured as described above, first, from the state shown in FIG. 2, the operation piece 36 is pressed in the depth direction of the recess 34 to engage the engagement claw 33 of the lid 12 and the container body 11. The engagement with the fitting protrusion 35 is released, and the lid 12 is opened. Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the operating lever 28, which is in contact with the left taper surface 32a of the fixing portion 29, is rotated rightward until it comes into contact with the right taper surface 32b of the fixing portion 29. .. As a result, the hole 23 of the inner cap 19 and the pouring hole 27 of the outer cap 25 communicate with each other, as shown in FIG. 4, from the state shown in FIG. Next, when the pressing portion 15b of the body of the bottle container 14 is pressed with fingers in this state, the liquid cosmetic material flows out into the small concave portion 13a of the cosmetic material extracting portion 13. Then, the pressing of the pressing portion 15 is stopped when the small-sized recess 13a is filled with the liquid cosmetic, and the liquefied cosmetic taken out to the small-shaped recess 13a is transferred to a puff or the like for makeup. In the state where the hole 23 and the pouring hole 27 are in communication with each other, as shown in FIG. 5, the operating lever 28 projects upward from the concave portion 11a so that the lid 12 cannot be closed. .. After use, the operating lever 28 is rotated leftward in the opposite direction to the left tapered surface 32a so that the hole 23 is blocked by the ceiling of the outer cap 25 and the lid 12 is closed. It is stored in the closed state shown in FIG. The blocking state of the hole portion 23 is such that the lid body 12 does not rotate any more even if the operation lever 28 rotates.

As described above, in the above compact, since the operation lever 28 does not rotate when the lid 12 is closed, the liquid cosmetic material leaks into the concave portion 11a even when vibration or the like is applied when it is carried. No inconvenient situation occurs. Further, when the hole portion 23 of the inner cap 19 and the pouring hole 27 of the outer cap 25 are in communication with each other, the operating lever 28 protrudes from the concave portion 11a of the container body 11 and cannot close the lid 12. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lid body 12 from being closed while the hole portion 23 and the pouring hole 27 are in communication with each other. Further, since the small concave portion 13a of the cosmetic take-out portion 13 of the container body 11 is formed to have a size to accommodate a single-use amount of the liquid cosmetic, the liquid cosmetic may be taken out too much or insufficiently. There is no. Further, when the lower surface of the bottle container 14 is formed as a taper surface 15a that is inclined downward toward the neck opening 14a, the liquid cosmetic easily collects near the neck of the bottle container 14, so that the remaining amount of the liquid cosmetic remains. It can be taken out to the end even if it decreases. Further, when the pressing portion 15a is pressed with a small amount of the liquid cosmetic remaining in the bottle container 14, the pressing force presses the bottle container 14 against the ridge 16b formed on the center side of the recess 11a. As a result, the bottom surface side of the bottle container 14 is lifted upward with the ridge 16b as a fulcrum, and the bottom surface of the bottle container 14 is inclined downward toward the neck opening and accumulated on the bottom surface side of the bottle container 14. The liquid cosmetic that is present can be collected on the neck opening 14a side. However, when the inside of the bottle container 14 is filled with the liquid cosmetic, the bottle container 14 and the liquid cosmetic are integrated, and the pressing force is applied not only to the bottle container 14 but also to the entire contents. Therefore, the pressing force is supported as a whole, and the bottom side does not lift upward.

By applying Teflon processing to the surface of the cosmetic material take-out portion 13 of the concave portion 11a and the small concave portion 13a, it is possible to prevent the taken-out liquid cosmetic material from sticking.

[0017]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, in the compact of the present invention, the flexible bottle container is laterally stored and fixed to one end side of the concave portion of the container main body with the neck opening toward the other end side, and the neck portion is attached to the ceiling part. An inner cap having a hole is bored. A pouring hole is formed in the ceiling of the inner cap, and an outer cap that covers the hole is rotatably attached to the inner cap. When the hole is blocked by the outer cap, the operation piece extended on the outer peripheral surface of the outer cap is set so as to be accommodated in the closed compact. As a result, the rotation of the operation piece is hindered by the lid during storage, so that the state in which the outer cap blocks the hole is maintained. Therefore, there is no possibility that the liquid cosmetics contained in the bottle will flow out into the compact. Further, a small concave portion capable of accommodating a single-use cosmetic material is provided on the bottom surface of the cosmetic material take-out portion on the other end side of the concave portion. Therefore, by rotating the outer cap and pressing the bottle container downward with the hole and the pouring hole communicating with each other, the liquid cosmetic in the bottle container is removed. It can be taken out to the above small recess. In addition, since the liquid cosmetics for single use can be automatically taken out by filling the small concave portions, neither excessive extraction nor insufficient extraction occurs. Further, in a state where the hole and the pouring hole are communicated with each other, the operation lever projects upward from the recess, and it is set so as not to be able to close the cover, which is always set in the hole. Since the lid is closed only in the closed state, leakage of liquid cosmetics can be automatically prevented.
