Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a bar-shaped cosmetic container.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

In bar-shaped cosmetic containers such as lipstick,
Conventionally, a feeding mechanism is generally used that combines an outer cylinder having a spiral groove, an inner cylinder having an axially symmetrical vertical groove, and a saucer having a projection that penetrates the vertical groove and fits into the spiral groove.

However, with this structure, since the cap is attached to the outer tube, it is necessary to remove the cap each time it is used and to rotate the hakama body, which is fixed or integrated with the outer tube, to expose the cosmetics, which is a tedious operation. Since the cap was a separate part, there was a problem that it could easily fall off the mirror stand or table, or be easily lost.

Conventionally, a slit is formed in the cylindrical body, a saucer and a flexible strip with one end fixed to the saucer are arranged in the cylindrical body, and a part of the flexible strip protrudes from the slit. Types that combine with are also known. This type does not require the attachment or detachment of the cap, and the cosmetics can be made to appear or disappear by raising and lowering the knob, but it is difficult to adjust the sliding resistance of the flexible strip against the cylindrical body, and if the sliding resistance is reduced, There were problems such as the cosmetics being immersed in the product during use, and if the sliding resistance was increased, a large amount of force would be required to dispense the product, resulting in breakage of the knob.

In addition, there is also a linear sliding type of this type in which the lid is pivotally attached to the top of the main body, and the lid is tilted and opened when the saucer starts to rise using the knob, but since the lid is used, there are many parts. cosmetic containers because the lid naturally rotates and opens when it comes into contact with other objects other than the knob, making it easy for foreign matter such as dust and dirt to get in; and because the overall shape of the container is restricted to a rectangular shape. The problem was that there was a lack of freedom in design, which is an important aspect of design.

[Means for solving problems]

This invention was devised to solve the above problems, and its purpose is to have a simple structure that does not use a cap or lid, smooth one-touch operation, and no need to operate the knob. To provide a container of this kind that prevents cosmetics from being exposed as much as possible, is highly safe against dirt and dust, has a magical and unique appearance, and has high aesthetic appeal and commercial value.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a case body having an opening on one side in the longitudinal direction and a vertical groove formed in the side wall adjacent to the opening, and a case body that is fitted into the case body through the opening, and a lower side of the case body. a holder body which is pivotally connected to the case body at one end and has a guide groove formed in the side wall; an inner plate which is housed inside the holder body and has a horizontal groove formed in the side wall; It is configured to include a knob piece with a protruding shaft that fits into the guide groove and the lateral groove via the groove.

The guide groove has a groove for rotating the holder body and a groove for feeding out with a steeper slope than the groove, and preferably a bulge for preventing the knob from moving in the lower end area of the groove for rotating the holder body. The structure has a series of

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIGS. 1a, b, and c show an example of a bar-shaped cosmetic container according to the present invention as it changes from a non-extending state to an extended state, and FIGS. 2 to 4 show its specific structure.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a case body, which includes a top wall 1a, a bottom wall 1b, and three side walls 1c, 1d, and 1e connecting these, and has an opening 10 formed along one side in the longitudinal direction. A pair of side walls 1d and 1e adjacent to the opening 10 have vertical grooves 11 and 11 extending through the wall thickness.
are formed in a pair, and furthermore, at least one side wall 1
A fulcrum portion (hole in this embodiment) 12 is formed in the portion d near the bottom wall 1b and closer to the opening.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a holder body, which has a cylindrical shape or a shape with one side open in the longitudinal direction, and is attached to the case body 1.
The side wall 2e is inserted into the case body through the opening 10, and the dimensions are such that the outer surface of the side wall 2e is aligned with the opening 10 in this inserted state.

The holder body 2 has a rounded top wall 2a formed with a through hole 20 through which the bar-shaped cosmetic product A can enter and exit, while a fulcrum portion 20 forming a pair with the fulcrum portion 12 is formed at the lower end of at least one side wall 2c. A portion (protrusion in this embodiment) 22 is formed, and these fulcrum portions 12,
The holder body 2 is attached to the case body 1 by 22 so as to be freely tiltable.

Guide grooves 21, 21 are formed in a pair of side walls 2c, 2d of the holder body 2, penetrating through the wall thickness, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 2a. This guide groove 21,
21 has an apex near the push-in side, and is connected with a linear feeding groove 210 that extends diagonally downward from the apex, and a reversible groove 211 that is displaced from the axis of this feeding groove 210 and extends toward the opening. Although this reversible groove portion 211 has a slight radius in FIG. 2, it may be straight as shown in FIG. 2a.

The reversible groove 211 is for moving the holder body 2 into and out of the case body 1, and its vertical distance S ₁
is smaller than the vertical distance S ₂ of the feeding groove 210, and the angle α ₂ of the feeding groove 210 with respect to the horizontal line is larger than the angle α ₁ of the turning groove 211 with respect to the horizontal line, but It has a steep slope. This shows the holder body 2 in Figure 1c.
This is to maintain the protruding state as shown in the figure.

The lower end region of the convertible groove portion 211 is connected with a bulge portion 213 that appropriately protrudes toward the opening side beyond the width of the vertical groove 11 in the assembled state. This bulge 213 is used as necessary to prevent the holder body 2 from inadvertently tilting in the state shown by the solid line in FIG. 1A or FIG. It will be established. Alternatively, the lower end region of the convertible groove portion 211 may be a straight groove that matches the longitudinal groove 11, and a constriction may be formed in this portion or at a position near the base end of the longitudinal groove 11.

In addition, at a position close to the apex of the feeding groove 210 (although it is less aesthetically pleasing, the same position in the vertical groove may be used),
A constriction 212 for maintaining the extended state is provided.

Reference numeral 3 denotes an inner plate, which has a size and shape that allows it to be inserted into the holder body 2 and slid along the inner surface thereof, and has a cosmetic attachment part concentrically with the through hole 20 of the holder body 2 on the upper part. 3a is formed. The side walls 3c and 3d of this inner plate 3 have horizontal grooves 31,
31 is formed. In this embodiment, the horizontal groove 3
1 and 31 are slits that reach the ends of the side walls, but it goes without saying that long holes that do not reach the ends of the side walls may be used, and the lateral grooves 31 and 31 may have an appropriate slope.

4 is a knob piece, which is attached to the side wall 1c of the case body 1;
1d, and a protruding shaft 4 that penetrates through the guide groove 21 and the horizontal groove 31 via the vertical groove 11.
It is equipped with b. In this embodiment, this protruding shaft 4b is provided with a small protrusion 40 at its tip to prevent it from coming off, but it may also be a simple pin. Further, the knob piece 4 does not necessarily have to be divided into two parts, and may be connected by a connecting part 41 as shown in FIG. 5a, or one main body 4 as shown in FIG. 5b.
The projecting shaft 4b may extend long from the main body 4b and be connected to the other main body 4a by undercutting, screwing, or the like.

In the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 4, the case body 1
Although the top wall 1a is shell-shaped or egg-shaped, it can also be shaped like a cone as shown in FIG. 6 or other shapes.

[Effect of the embodiment]

In the container of the present invention, the inner plate 3 is inserted into the holder body 2, and in this state, the holder body 2 is fitted into the case body 1 through the opening 10. When this fitting is done, the fulcrum part 1
2 and 22 are engaged with each other, the holder body 2 is assembled to the case body 1 in a freely tiltable manner using the lower end as a fulcrum. In this state, the knob piece 4 is arranged on the outer surface of the side wall of the case body 1, and the protruding shaft 4b is aligned with the vertical grooves 11, 1.
1, it fits into the guide groove 21 of the holder body 2 and the horizontal groove 31 of the inner plate 3, and the assembly is completed. Then, with the knob piece 4 raised and the holder body 2 protruding, the cosmetics A are placed on the inner tray 3.
It becomes a product by being attached to it.

When the knob piece 4 is at the lower limit position as shown in FIG. 1a, the protruding shaft 4b is located at the base end of the vertical groove 11 and the guide groove 21 as shown in FIG. are doing. Therefore, the inner plate 3 is at its lower limit, and the front side wall 2e of the holder body 2 housing it is tightly aligned with the opening 10, as if forming the side wall of the case body 1.

In this state, since the bulge 213 of the holder body 2 protrudes closer to the opening than the vertical groove 11, the protruding shaft 4b is prevented from being inadvertently raised due to the locking action, and the protruding shaft 4b is connected to the top wall 1a of the case body 1. Since there is nothing corresponding to a lid on the bottom wall 1b, the appearance is extremely good.

Next, when the knob piece 4 is raised in the longitudinal direction of the case body 1, the lower end area of the guide groove 21 bulges toward the opening side as described above, so that when the protruding shaft 4b gets over this, the holder body 2 It tries to move inside the case body 1, and this generates initial torque. Furthermore, by raising the protruding shaft 4b along the vertical groove 11, a tilting force is applied to the holder body 2 through the tilting groove 211, and the holder body 2 is gradually moved outward from the opening 10 using the fulcrum parts 12 and 22 as fulcrums. stand out. At this time, the inner tray 3 moderately rises within the holder body 2 while the protruding shaft 4b moves along the lateral groove 31, but the cosmetic product A remains housed in the holder body 2.

FIG. 1b shows a state in which the holder body 2 has been completely projected, and the through hole 20 is exposed from the opening 10 of the case body 1. At this time, the position of the protruding shaft 4b is the second
At the position a in the figure, the feeding groove 210 of the guide groove 21 and the vertical groove 11 are aligned.

When the knob piece 4 is further raised, the protruding shaft 4b is aligned with the longitudinal groove 11 and the feeding groove 21.
0, the holder body 2 is held in a tilted state, only the inner tray 3 rises along the inner wall of the holder body 2, and the cosmetic product A protrudes from the through hole 20. This protrusion ends when the protruding shaft 4b passes through the constriction 212, and the extended state is fixed. This will result in a usage condition as shown in Figure 1c.

Even if an external force on the push-in side acts on the holder body 2 in this state of use, the holder body 2 is firmly fixed in the protruding state because the feeding groove 210 has a steeper slope than the reversible groove 211, and the makeup is not applied. There will be no problem.

[Effect of idea]

According to the present invention described above, since no cap or lid body is used, the number of parts is small, and the structure and assembly can be simplified.
Cosmetics can be smoothly dispensed and stored by simply raising and lowering.

Moreover, when the cosmetics are not drawn out, the inner tray 3 is stored in the holder body 2, and this holder body 2 is tightly fitted into the case body 1, so that the through hole 20 for cosmetics in the holder body 2 is inserted into the case top wall 1a. covered with Therefore, even if the cosmetics are handled roughly, dirt and the like are less likely to adhere to them.

In addition, during the feeding operation, the holder body 2 tilts and appears from the case body 1, and in this state, the cosmetics protrude, exhibiting a unique movement. Excellent effects such as being able to use this type of container with a high
