Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a container for nail polish remover, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a container that can easily and reliably remove nail polish without using an applicator such as a brush, and is low in bulk and convenient to carry. That is.

Conventionally, to remove nail polish and wash it off, a brush, felt, or other applicator or cotton tissue has been used, which is then impregnated with nail polish remover and applied to the nails, but this process is extremely troublesome. In addition, there is a risk that drops of nail polish remover may fall, and furthermore, it is inconvenient for portable use.

Therefore, in the present invention, an elastic absorbent material such as a sponge is attached to the inside of the lid body with a bellows-shaped retaining tube that can be freely expanded and contracted, and the retaining tube and the elastic absorbent material are compressed into the container body, and the lid is closed. When the body is removed from the container main body, the elastic absorbent material impregnated with the nail polish remover inside is expanded and returned to its original state, so that nail polish removal can be performed using the elastic absorbent material. be.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a container body made of glass, synthetic resin, ceramics, etc., which is provided with a threaded portion 2 on the outer periphery of the peripheral side and a protruding edge 3 for gripping on the outer periphery of the bottom, and has a relatively shallow cross-section as a whole. It has a mu-like shape.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a lid formed of synthetic resin or the like in a concave shape, and is removably screwed onto the threaded part 2 on the outside of the peripheral side of the container main body 1 with a thread on the inner circumference of the peripheral side part 4a. It is usually formed to have approximately the same depth as the container body 1, and the lower end of the circumferential side portion 4a is close to or in contact with the protruding edge 3 in the screwed state.

Reference numeral 5 denotes an elastic absorbent material made of sponge or other material such as open-cell synthetic resin foam, and is provided with a bellows-shaped retaining cylinder 6 that can be expanded and contracted inside the top plate of the lid body 4 so that at least the center portion of the lower surface side is exposed. The lid body 4 is fitted into and held by the container body 1.
It is provided so that it enters into the container body 1 in a state where it is screwed onto the container body 1.

In particular, the elastic absorbing material 5 and the holding cylinder 6 are formed to be longer than the depth of the container body 1, that is, to protrude downward from the circumferential side 4a of the lid 4, and the elastic absorbing material 5 is As shown in the figure, it is pushed into the container main body 1 in a compressed state, and when the lid 4 is removed from the container main body 1, the elastic force of the elastic absorbing material 5 causes the second As shown in the figure, it expands and returns to its original state.

Furthermore, this elastic absorbent material 5 is provided with a fingertip insertion section 7 into which a fingertip can be elastically inserted into the center of the lower side channel. In addition to circular holes, various shapes into which the fingertips can be pushed elastically can be formed, such as holes with an elliptical cross section, groove-like holes, recessed holes with a required depth, or simple notches.

The elastic absorbing material 5 may be held from the outer periphery only by the bellows shape of the holding tube 6, but it is preferable to provide a protruding edge inside the lower end of the holding tube 6 to prevent it from coming off.

Further, the holding cylinder 6 is provided with a projecting edge 9 on the outer periphery of its upper end, which is engaged with a protrusion 10 protruding from the lower surface of the top plate of the lid body 4, and is detachably provided.

The present invention is constructed as described above, and the nail polish remover is stored in an amount sufficient to impregnate the elastic absorbent material 5 such as a sponge. Since the material 5 is in a compressed state, the liquid that is not absorbed is stored in a space such as a gap outside the holding cylinder 6 in the container body 1.

When the lid body 4 is removed from the container body 1 when used to remove nail polish, the elastic absorbing material 5 which is in a compressed state expands and returns to its original state. The nail polish remover in the container body 1 is absorbed and impregnated into the elastic absorbing material 5.

Turn over the lid 4 that holds the elastic absorbent material 5 impregnated with the nail polish remover, and insert the fingertip from which the nail polish should be removed into the fingertip insertion part 7, such as a hole or notch, provided at the center of the lower surface of the elastic absorbent material 5. It is only necessary to push in using the elasticity of the elastic absorbing material 5,
Since the elastic absorbing material 5 has returned to its original state, there is no problem with the fingertip insertion action, and as a result of the surface of the fingernail of the inserted fingertip sliding against the elastic absorbing material 5 impregnated with nail polish remover, the insertion/extraction action is prevented. You can remove nail polish from the surface of your nails and wash it off with a chisel.

As described above, in the present invention, the elastic absorbent material 5 such as a sponge is pressed into the container body 1 in a compressed state using the elastic bellows-shaped holding cylinder 6 inside the lid body 4, and the lid body 4 is moved into the container body 1. The elastic absorbent material 5 impregnated with the nail polish remover is allowed to swell and return by being removed from the nail polish remover, and nail polish removal can be performed by pushing the fingertip into the fingertip insertion portion 7 of the elastic absorber 5. Therefore, there is no need to use applicators such as brushes or cotton tissues, and you can easily and reliably remove nail polish.There is no fear of drops of nail polish remover falling, and you can use it anywhere. It's extremely convenient.

In particular, in the present invention, since the elastic absorbent material 5 is pressed into the container body 1 in a compressed state, the elastic absorbent material 5 must have a thickness (for example, 3 to 5 cm) necessary for insertion with a fingertip. Also, the depth of the container body 1 can be made quite shallow, and the overall thickness of the container can be reduced to make it compact.
Since it is small and does not require an applicator, it is very convenient to carry, and depending on the amount of nail polish remover that can be impregnated into the elastic absorbing material 5, it can be disposable.

Furthermore, in the present invention, since the elastic absorbing material such as a sponge is held by the bellows-shaped holding cylinder, the nail polish remover can be prevented from seeping out or evaporating from the outer periphery of the elastic absorbing material during nail polish removal. There are also effects such as being able to.
