In general, cosmetics are used for skin care, and solid cosmetics such as foundation, liquid cosmetics such as skin, and semi-solid cosmetics mixed with foundation and liquid are used.

In addition, solid cosmetics and semi-solid cosmetics are used in the form of putting cosmetic contents into a container having an accommodation space, burying them in a built-in puff, and then applying them to the skin.

However, the conventional cosmetics described above are wasteful because, when the puff is brought into contact with the cosmetic contents during use, excessive cosmetics more than necessary are buried on the puff by the pressing force. Therefore, cosmetics are contaminated by viruses, mold, bacteria, etc., which causes skin troubles or shortens the period of use.

As a method to solve this disadvantage, a rotary cosmetic container as disclosed in Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-1590936 has been proposed.

Referring to FIG. 1 , the conventional rotary cosmetic container 100 includes an upper case 110 , a lower case 120 , an intermediate case 130 , a rotating member 150 , an inner member 170 , and a piston 180 . , a refill pedestal 190 , a check valve 206 , a disk 210 , a refill case 220 , a button 230 and a rotating screw shaft 240 .

This rotary cosmetic container 100 has a structure that can discharge cosmetics while the piston 180 rises only when the rotating member 150 is rotated, and is inconvenient to use because the user has to hold and rotate several fingers, so that it slides easily due to sweat, etc. As such, there is a disadvantage that a malfunction is caused.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 1 , the conventional rotary cosmetic container 100 has too many components and a complicated structure, so the manufacturing cost is increased due to the increase in raw material cost and assembly cost.

Hereinafter, the operation of the air-driven cosmetic container according to an embodiment of the present invention will be briefly described.

8 is a view for explaining the operation of an air-driven cosmetic container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and is a cross-sectional view showing an operating state.

First, press the button 53 to release the binding state of the upper case part 6 fixed to the lower case part 5, and apply an opening force to the upper case part 6 so that the inside is exposed as shown in FIG. It opens and operates the pressure operation unit 232 to perform the cosmetic discharging process.

When the discharging process of these cosmetics is described in more detail with reference to Figs. 5 and 8, when the contact piece 232c of the pressurizing operation unit 232 is pressed with a finger while the upper case unit 6 is open, the compression bag ( 231 is contracted and deformed to compress the air inside, and the compressed air thus generated moves along the connection line 231b and the air supply line 221, and the opening/closing ball 243 is seated in the ball seating groove 242a. ) will increase.

When the opening/closing ball 243 is raised, the compressed air moves along the ball moving part 242 and then is ejected to the bottom of the piston member 21 through the air supply hole 241b. When compressed air is not supplied while the opening/closing ball 243 is raised as described above, the opening/closing ball falls by its own weight and is seated in the ball seating groove 242a to block the reverse flow of air.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8, the piston member 21 is moved upward according to an increase in the amount of compressed air filled in the bottom of the piston member 21 due to the repeated operation of the pressure operation unit 232 as described above.

As shown in FIG. 8, when the piston member 21 is raised in this way, the cosmetics (c) accommodated on the upper surface is discharged through the cosmetic supply hole 122 of the container cover 12, and is composed of a diffusion part 31 It spreads widely on the diffusion groove, and then is evenly ejected through the ejection hole 322 of the ejection plate 32 .

As such, when the cosmetics are ejected onto the upper surface of the discharge plate 32 , the user places the cosmetics on the bottom surface of the puff 7 and then puts on makeup.

Since the cosmetic container assembled as described above can discharge the cosmetics by a simple operation of pressing the pressure operation unit 232 with a single finger, the discharge amount of the cosmetics can be precisely controlled. And, since the structure is not complicated compared to the conventional cosmetic container, the cost of raw materials and the cost of assembly can be reduced due to the reduction in the quantity of parts and the simplicity and simplification of the structure, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.

What has been described above is only one embodiment for implementing the air-driven cosmetic container according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and as claimed in the claims below, the present invention It will be said that the technical idea of the present invention exists to the extent that various modifications can be made by anyone with ordinary knowledge in the field to which the invention pertains within the scope not departing from the gist of the invention.

The singular expression includes the plural expression unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In the present application, terms such as “comprise” or “have” are intended to designate that a feature, number, step, operation, component, part, or combination thereof described in the specification exists, but one or more other features It should be understood that this does not preclude the existence or addition of numbers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.
