A compression molding mechanism for compression molding may be provided. The presence of the mechanism portion is convenient for protecting the surface of the cosmetic agent or preventing the cosmetic agent from cracking when the containers 2 filled with the cosmetic agent and solidified are stacked.

Further, in the present invention, an automatic discharge mechanism portion for taking out the container 2 containing the cosmetic agent compression-molded as described above to the outside of the turntable 11 may be provided, and the concave body 9 on the turntable 11 may be provided. A container confirmation mechanism for automatically confirming the presence / absence and the front / back of the container 2 mounted inside, or an appropriate decoration such as sprinkling gold powder on the surface of the cosmetic agent in the filled and solidified container A decoration process mechanism portion that can be applied may be provided.

In the present invention in which all of the above mechanical parts are provided, as shown in the schematic block diagram of FIG. 2, while the containers 2 are mounted in the recessed parts 9 of the turntable 11 one after another, The container 2 is transferred to a mechanism section for confirming presence / absence and front / back of the container, and then transferred to a filling and solidifying mechanism section for the viscous cosmetic agent 1 to be sequentially filled with the viscous cosmetic agent and solidified. , The cosmetic agent surface is transferred to a mechanism section to be appropriately decorated, and then the cosmetic agent surface is compression-molded by the compression molding mechanism section, and then the container itself is discharged to the outside of the turntable 11. Each process will be fully automated as a system.

In the compression molding mechanism, for example, a silicone rubber material is used for the compression surface that comes into direct contact with the cosmetic surface, and if the rubber surface is provided with appropriate irregularities, the cosmetic surface has a three-dimensional decoration. Can be given.

In the present invention, however, the viscous cosmetic agent 1 may have various mechanical parts on the turntable 11 as described above.
At the same time as the filling step, the solvent in the viscous cosmetic agent 1 is sucked from the upper surface of the container 2 by the suction action of the suction mechanism portion 6 while the viscous cosmetic agent 1 is solidified. The method and the device.

The filling and solidifying action of the present invention thus configured will be described below.

That is, when the container 2 is transferred to the filling and solidifying mechanism portion on the turntable 11, the tip of the nozzle 3 is automatically raised to the opening 10 of the recessed body 9 and the opening 10 'on the rear surface of the container, and is attached to the portion. 2 is filled with the viscous cosmetic agent 1, and at the same time as the filling, the solvent in the viscous cosmetic agent 1 passes through the paper material 5 or the cloth 4, the steel mesh material, etc. located on the container surface, and the suction mechanism section 6 The cosmetic agent that is sucked by the vacuum action from a large number of the respective fine pores 8 and solidified instantly is formed and stored in the container 2.

The nozzle 3 for filling the viscous cosmetic agent into the container
As described above, the viscous cosmetic agent is filled when it is attached to the recessed body 9 and the openings 10 and 10 'of the container 2 while moving the tip up and down as described above. Depending on the type of the viscous cosmetic agent 1 to be filled, etc.,
The filling may be performed from a single filling to an appropriate number of fillings.

Further, in the present invention, if the nozzles 3 to be filled with the viscous cosmetic agents of different colors are properly provided, the same container 2 is provided.
Needless to say, a plurality of different-color viscous cosmetic agents can be filled in the interior or the like and solidified.

[Effect of the present invention]

As described above, according to the present invention, the viscous cosmetic agent 1 in the container 2 is
The filling and solidification can be performed extremely efficiently and quickly, and the filling and solidification can be instantaneously completed in a single step, so that the cost can be reduced and the apparatus itself can be made extremely simple. In the filling and solidifying method as in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to fill and solidify the viscous cosmetic agent regardless of the shape of the container 2 itself, and of course, the viscous cosmetic agent of a plurality of colors. However, simultaneous filling and solidification will be possible.

Further, in the filling and solidifying method and apparatus of the present invention, unnecessary cosmetic agent does not adhere to the periphery of the surface of the container 2 at all, so that the loss of the cosmetic agent is eliminated and, as a result, the cost is reduced also from this aspect. It will be.

Thus, the present invention is an excellent method and apparatus for filling and solidifying a viscous cosmetic agent, which exhibits various novel effects.
