However, even if it is desired to apply the cosmetic liquid to only the necessary area, it is necessary to wash the cosmetic liquid on the hands after the make-up as it is properly applied to the skin after rubbing through the hand, or by penetration of bacteria or the like There is a problem of causing injury to the skin.

To overcome the functional simplicity of the cap for opening and closing such a cosmetic container, a technique for diversifying and expanding the function of the cap has been recently introduced.

Examples thereof include cosmetics such as BB cream and ultraviolet screening agents, gel cosmetics such as foundations, and the like in the case of cosmetics such as skin cosmetics such as skin lotion, which are applied on the hands, ), It is desirable to provide the puffs in a cosmetic tube container or a cap of a cosmetic tube container to diversify functions.

Some cosmetic containers form a receiving space on one side of the container and accommodate puffs and the like in the receiving space. However, since such a container has a separate puff accommodated in the accommodation space without being fixed or joined together, there is an inconvenience that the puff should be taken out from the accommodation space when using makeup.

In addition, other cosmetic containers can be used to hold a porous sponge-like puff, to form a hole in a sponge-like puff (No. 10-0915595) or to form a hole (No. 20-0297617) Thereby discharging the cosmetic liquid. However, the cosmetic container in which the hole is formed remains open until the hole is closed by the cover, so that air and bacteria may be introduced through the hole. In addition, when holes are not formed, the cosmetic liquid is wasted by spreading to the inside of the puff, and the cosmetic liquid on the puff may be contaminated or the bacteria may multiply.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a tubular cosmetic container according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a partial sectional view showing a tubular cosmetic container according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

1 and 2, a tubular cosmetic container 1000 according to the first embodiment includes a tube body 1100 storing cosmetic liquid and a cap 1200 coupled to the tube body 1100 And the cap 1200 may include a cap base 1230, a puff 1240, an upper lid 1210, and a guide member 1250.

The tube body 1100 may have an internal space and may be made of a material having elasticity. In addition, various functional cosmetic liquids such as sun cream, lotion, toner, and cream may be accommodated in the tube body 1100. Accordingly, when the user presses the tube member 1100, the cosmetic solution can be discharged to the outside of the tube member 1100.

At one longitudinal end portion of the tube body 1100, a flat joint 1120 formed by thermal fusion may be formed, and one longitudinal end of the tube body 1100 may have a cylindrical shape. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the tube body 1100 is formed to be gradually flattened from one side to the other side. Meanwhile, a coupling portion 1130 having a discharge port 1150 may be formed at the other end of the tube body 1100. The coupling portion 1130 may have a cylindrical shape, and a thread may be formed on the outer periphery of the coupling portion 1130. The discharge port 1150 may be formed at the center of the upper surface of the coupling portion 1130.

The cap 1200 is screwed to the engaging portion 1130 of the tube body 1100 to facilitate the discharge and application of the cosmetic liquid. The cap 1200 may be positioned at the top or bottom of the tube body 1100 in a state in which the tube body 1100 is placed.

The cap base 1230 may have a substantially elliptical columnar shape or a cylindrical shape, and has a coupling rib 1233 protruding downward. An opening 1236 for engagement of the puff 1240 and the guide member 1250 is formed on the upper support surface 1231 of the cap base 1230. The outer surface 1232 of the cap base 1230 may be formed with a detachable groove 1234 for engagement with the upper cover 1210. The support surface 1231 may have a disk shape and the outer surface 1232 may have a cylindrical shape. The outer surface 1232 may have a stepped portion abutting the lower end of the upper cover 1210.

The engaging ribs 1233 protrude toward the tube body 1100 and may have a circular tubular shape. A thread is formed on the inner surface of the engaging rib 1233 and the engaging rib 1233 can be fixed to the engaging portion 1130 of the tube body 1100 by screwing. The cosmetic liquid discharged from the discharge port 1150 may be supplied to the puff 1240 through the opening 1236. The opening 1236 may be provided with a plurality of openings 1236,

The cap base 1230 is formed with a pressing protrusion 1235 which extends along the circumference of the opening 1236 and protrudes downward. The pressing protrusion presses the lower end of the puff 1240 to prevent the cosmetic liquid from leaking. The tube body 1100 is coupled to the cap base 1230 and pushes up the lower end of the guide member 1250 and the puff 1240. The lower end of the puff 1240 is pressed by the press protrusion 1235 located at the upper side, .

The upper lid 1210 is detachably coupled to the cap base 1230. The upper lid 1210 includes an upper surface 1212 and an outer peripheral surface 1213 protruding from the upper surface 1212 so as to surround the cap base. The upper surface 1212 may have a substantially disc shape and may have a curved surface protruding or depressed at the center or a flat surface. The outer peripheral surface 1213 extends along the side edge of the upper surface 1212 and projects toward the cap base 1230 and has a substantially circular cross section. A detachable protrusion 1215 inserted into the detachable groove 1234 may be formed on the inner side of the outer circumferential surface 1213. The attaching / detaching protrusion 1215 protrudes from the inside of the outer circumferential surface 1213 and extends in the circumferential direction of the outer circumferential surface 1213.

The upper lid 1210 is formed with a blocking rib 1216 protruding toward the puff 1240 with the blocking rib 1216 protruding downward from the bottom of the upper surface 1212 and having a generally circular cross section. The blocking rib 1216 may be formed at the center of the upper surface 1212. The blocking rib 1216 has a height greater than the spacing between the top surface 1212 and the top surface of the puff 1240 to press the puff 1240. The cut-off ribs 1216 prevent the cosmetic liquid from flowing out. For this purpose, the cut-outs 1246 are formed under the space enclosed by the cut-off ribs 1216. When the upper cover 1210 is coupled to the cap base 1230, the puff 1240 may be depressed by the blocking rib 1216 to form a groove.

The guide member 1250 is inserted between the lower end of the puff 1240 and the front end of the engaging portion and includes a support pipe 1251 protruding upward and a support plate 1252 extending outward from the lower end of the support pipe 1251 . The support plate 1252 may be in the form of a disc and is positioned between the lower end of the puff 1240 and the tube body 1100. The support tube 1251 is inserted into the induction tube 1242 formed in the puff 1240 so as to penetrate through the opening 1236.

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view showing a cap of a tubular cosmetic container according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a puff of a tubular cosmetic container according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 2 to 3, the puff 1240 is made of a material having elasticity, and may be made of non-porous silicon, for example. Here, nonporous means not only a material having no micropores, but also a material having ultrafine pores in which a cosmetic liquid can not permeate.

The puff 1240 may be made of a material having greater elasticity than the cap base 1230 and the tube body 1100. [ If the puff 1240 is made of a material having elasticity, the cosmetic liquid can be easily discharged through the cutout portion 1246, and the cut portion 1246 can be stably closed after the cosmetic liquid is discharged. .

The puff 1240 includes an application plate 1241 formed with a cutout 1246 and a guide pipe 1241 extending from the bottom surface of the application plate 1241 toward the tube body 1100 to connect the discharge port 1150 and the cutout 1246 And a sealing projection 1245 formed on a side of the flange 1243. The flange 1243 extends outward from the side of the guide tube 1242 and the sealing projection 1245 is formed on the side of the flange 1243. [ The application plate may be formed of a curved plate having a central portion higher than the outer end, and may be formed to gradually increase in thickness from the center to the outer side. Further, a side end of the application plate 1241 can be held in contact with the cap base 1230. Accordingly, when the cosmetic liquid is applied to the skin using the puff 1240, the application plate 1241 can be stably supported.

A cutout 1246 is formed at the center of the application plate 1241. The cutout 1246 is formed to penetrate from the upper end to the lower end of the application plate 1241 and has a length extending in the radial direction of the puff 1240 . That is, as viewed from the top of the puff 1240, the cutout 1246 has a length leading to the line.

One cutout portion 1246 may be formed on the application plate 1241 and a plurality of cutouts 1246 may be formed. The cutout 1246 according to the first embodiment may be formed radially from the center. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the cutout 1246 may be formed of one or a plurality of straight lines and curved lines.

As shown in FIG. 5, the cut portion 1246 may be formed by punching the puff 1240 in the thickness direction by using a sharp cutting tool 1300 at the bottom. The punching tool 1300 may include one or a plurality of continuously formed blades. Thus, a cutout 1246 having a length at the time of punching can be formed.

This cutout 1246 may serve as a safety valve that is opened and closed by pressure. If the external force is not applied, the incision is closed by the elastic force, and the pressure in the tube body 1100 increases due to an external force, so that the cosmetic solution can be discharged to the outside when the valve is opened.

The length of the incision 1246 may be greater than the thickness of the center of the puff 1240 wherein the thickness of the center of the puff 1240 may be 0.5 to 0.9 times the length of the incision. If the thickness of the center of the puff 1240 is less than 0.5 times, there may arise a problem that the incision portion 1246 can not be stably closed when the discharge of the cosmetic solution is stopped, and the thickness of the center of the puff 1240 is more than 0.9 The problem may occur that the cosmetic liquid can not be discharged properly.

A plurality of fine protrusions 1247 are formed on the upper surface of the application plate 1241. The fine protrusions 1247 may have a semispherical longitudinal cross-section. The fine protrusions 1247 can be uniformly arranged on the upper surface of the application plate 1241 at predetermined intervals.

When the fine protrusions 1247 are formed on the application plate 1241, the cosmetic liquid can be more easily applied to the skin. The conventional puff is made of a sponge, so that the cosmetic solution remains in the puff and the cosmetic solution spreads inside the puff, causing the cosmetic solution in the puff to be contaminated or the cosmetic solution to be wasted. However, if the puff 1240 is made of non-toxic silicone having no porosity as in the first embodiment, the cosmetic liquid can not penetrate into the puff 1240 and the cosmetic liquid in the puff 1240 can be prevented from being deteriorated .

The induction pipe 1242 is formed so as to extend from the application plate 1241 toward the tube body 1100 and penetrate through the opening 1236. Also, a guide pipe 1251 may be inserted into the induction pipe 1242. The flange 1243 extends outward from the lower end of the induction tube and is inserted between the cap base 1230 and the support plate 1252. [ The sealing protrusion 1245 is formed to extend in the circumferential direction of the flange 1243 and has a greater thickness than the flange 1243. The sealing protrusions 1245 may be formed to have a substantially circular vertical cross-section, and are formed in an annular shape. The sealing projection 1245 can be engaged with the pressing projection 1235. The pressing projection 1235 is inserted inside the sealing projection 1245 between the guide tube 1242 and the sealing projection 1245, And the upper surface of the flange 1243 together.

FIG. 6 is a view illustrating a process of discharging cosmetic liquid through an incision formed in a puff of a tubular cosmetic container according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

6, when the user presses the tube member 1100, when the cosmetic liquid 1400 rises upward, the puff 1240 is pressed to open the lower portion of the cut portion 1246, 1400 enter the cut-out portion 1246. On the other hand, when the user stops the pressurization, when the cosmetic liquid 1400 is discharged to the upper end of the incision portion 1246, the lower end of the incision portion 1246 is closed.

As described above, according to the first embodiment, when the discharge of the cosmetic liquid 1400 is started, the cosmetic liquid 1400 flows into the lower portion of the incision portion 1246 in a state where the upper end of the incision portion 1246 is closed And when the discharge of the cosmetic liquid 1400 is stopped, since it is closed from the lower end of the incision portion 1246, the inflow of air or the inflow of foreign substances or bacteria can be minimized.

Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing a cut-out portion formed in a puff of a tubular cosmetic container according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

7, a cutout portion 1246 is formed in the puddle 2100 according to the second embodiment, and a guide groove 2130 is formed in the lower portion of the cutout portion 2120, the width of which gradually decreases toward the upper portion. . Here, the cutout 2120 may be formed in a straight line.

The guide groove 2130 may extend in the longitudinal direction of the puff 2100 and the guide groove 2130 may be formed to be smaller than 1/4 of the central thickness of the puff 2100. The cutout portion 2120 in the guide groove 2130 is not closed even if no external force acts

When the guide groove 2130 is formed as described above, the cosmetic liquid can more easily move upward through the guide groove 2130 when an external force acts. The guide groove 2130 may be formed by cutting after the incision 2120 is formed by a pawl.

Hereinafter, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing a cut-out portion formed in a puff of a tubular cosmetic container according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

8, a cut 2210 is formed in the puff 2200 according to the third embodiment, and the cut 2210 is extended in the first direction from the lower surface of the puff 2200 in the first direction And may include a first portion 2212 and a second portion 2213 that bends at the first portion 2212 and extends to the top surface of the puff 2200. [ The cutout 2210 may be formed in a cross shape.

Here, the first direction may be a direction perpendicular to a lower surface of the puff 2200, and the second direction may be a direction inclined by 10 ° to 30 ° with respect to the first direction.

The first portion 2212 may be formed to have a height that is less than one-half the thickness of the puff 2200. The cut portion 2210 may be formed with a punch using a straight punching tool. After forming the first portion 2212, the second portion 2213 may be formed by changing the direction of punching by the punch tool. Thereafter, a cross-shaped incision 2210 may be formed by punching once again using a punching tool.

When the cut portion 2210 includes the first portion 2212 and the second portion 2213 that are formed to penetrate in the thickness direction of the puff 2200 and extend in different directions, when the puff 2200 is opened, The first portion 2212 can be closed first when the first portion 2212 is closed and the second portion 2213 is closed when the puff 2200 is closed.

Hereinafter, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing an incision formed in a puff of a tubular cosmetic container according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.
