Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a two-way locking one-button cover, and more specifically to a two-way locking one-button cover capable of two-way locking of the cover unit and having a safety function to prevent the cover unit from being easily opened. Background Technology

[0002] Generally speaking, cosmetic containers are used to hold and use cosmetics for various purposes. Most cosmetic containers have sealing units to prevent the cosmetics from deteriorating or being damaged during distribution or storage, and the degree of sealing varies depending on the purpose and characteristics of the cosmetic.

[0003] Recent trends indicate that product development that considers resource recycling and the environment is actively encouraged when developing cosmetic containers. Furthermore, there is a need for environmentally friendly products that are easy to sort and recycle to minimize consumer inconvenience caused by product use or disposal.

[0004] Furthermore, conventional cosmetic containers, due to their screw-fastening method, allow anyone to easily open the lid. As described above, when the lid is easy to open, extra caution is required because the contents may be wasted by children with poor discernment, and there is also a risk of safety-related accidents (such as children potentially ingesting the contents without adult supervision).

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to solve the above problems.

[0006] The background technology of this invention is disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2011-0002279 (published on January 7, 2011, invention title: Sealed Safety Double Cover). Summary of the Invention

[0007] Technical issues The present invention is disclosed to solve the above-mentioned problems and aims to provide an environmentally friendly two-way locking one-touch cap that retains the convenience of a one-touch cap, improves sealing function, and is formed from a single material that does not require sorting and recycling.

[0008] Furthermore, the present invention aims to provide a two-way locking one-touch cover with a structure that prevents safety-related accidents by opening the cover unit at a specific location.

[0009] Technical solution According to one embodiment of the present invention, a two-way locking one-button cover includes: a body; a covering unit connected to the body and opening or closing an opening in the body; and a safety open-close operation unit that controls the covering unit to open or close to seal the body and open the covering unit at a specific location.

[0010] In addition, the covering unit may include: a ring portion rotatably disposed on a circumferential portion of the body; and a hinged cover that is hinged to the ring portion and opens or closes the opening of the body.

[0011] Furthermore, corresponding stepped sections can be formed on the facing surfaces of the ring section and the hinged cover.

[0012] Furthermore, the safety open-close operating unit may include: a sealing member disposed on the hinged cover; and a sealing operating unit that moves the cover unit downward to contact the sealing member with an opening in the body, and the sealing operating unit may include: a plurality of sealing guide grooves formed to slope downward along the circumferential surface of the body for a predetermined length; a sealing guide protrusion formed on the hinged cover to be correspondingly inserted into the sealing guide groove; and an opening formed at a position in the sealing guide groove except for the end portion, such that the sealing guide protrusion retracts from the sealing guide groove to open the hinged cover.

[0013] In addition, each sealing guide groove in the sealing guide groove can be formed to slope downwards in two directions from the opening.

[0014] In addition, multiple sealing guide grooves formed along the circumferential surface of the body can be connected to each other.

[0015] In addition, the sealing operation unit may include a sealing reinforcement portion that enhances the sealing force between the body and the cover unit.

[0016] In addition, the sealing reinforcement portion can be formed in the lower end portion of the sealing guide groove, and the sealing guide protrusion can be guided downward to press the hinged cover toward the ring portion.

[0017] In addition, the safe open-close operation unit may include an auxiliary guide portion that guides the sealing operation of the cover unit performed by the sealing operation unit.

[0018] In addition, the auxiliary guide portion can be formed in the main body parallel to the sealing guide groove.

[0019] Additionally, an auxiliary guide protrusion may be included, which is formed to protrude from the ring portion and be inserted into the auxiliary guide groove.

[0020] In addition, a positioning protrusion that temporarily fixes the position of the auxiliary guide protrusion can be formed in the auxiliary guide groove.

[0021] In addition, the auxiliary guide groove and the sealing guide groove can be connected to each other through the connecting groove.

[0022] Beneficial effects As described above, the bidirectional locking one-touch cap according to the invention maintains its ease of opening or closing via a hinge and enhances sealing by allowing the cap unit to rotate to move vertically downward.

[0023] Furthermore, in this invention, since the sealing guide groove is formed around the opening in two directions, bidirectional locking is possible, which improves convenience; and since the opening is formed at a specific location in the sealing guide groove except for the end portion, the cover unit can be prevented from being easily opened, thereby preventing safety-related accidents by preventing children, the elderly, mentally disabled people or people with poor discernment from easily opening the cover unit.

[0024] Furthermore, this invention offers ease of use because the opening, closing, sealing, or locking of the covering unit can be performed in a single operation. The arrangement of the sealing operation unit and the auxiliary guide section in two rows allows for stable opening and closing movement; and the ability to identify the sealing and opening positions via the positioning protrusions further enhances ease of use.

[0025] Furthermore, in this invention, since the sealing enhancement portion is disposed in the sealing guide groove, the hinged cover can be pressed toward the container, and thus the sealing force can be increased and the improved locking state of the cover unit can be maintained.

[0026] Furthermore, since the body and cover unit are formed from a single material such as PP, a product that takes into account resource recycling and the environment can be provided. Moreover, since separate recycling is not required, an environmentally friendly product that minimizes inconvenience to the user depending on use or disposal can be provided.

Figure 9 This is a view of the usage state of a two-way locking one-touch cap according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 10 This is a view illustrating a modified example of a two-way locking one-touch cap according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0040] refer to Figures 1 to 9 According to one embodiment of the present invention, a two-way locking one-button cover 100 may include a main body 110, a covering unit 120 and a safe open-close operation unit 140.

[0041] The main body 110 can be formed as a ring and connected to, for example, Figure 9 The illustrated container C contains the contents at its upper inlet. That is, the body 110 can be integrally formed with the inlet of the container C, or it can be fixed to the inlet using a separate connecting unit. The container C can be any of various shapes formed to allow the contents to be contained and have an inlet through which the contents are removed from the container.

[0042] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 The cover unit 120 can be disposed on the main body 110, and the opening of the main body 110 can be opened or closed by a hinge. It includes a ring portion 122 that is rotatably disposed on the circumferential portion of the main body 110 and a hinged cover 124 that is hinged to the ring portion 122 and opens or closes the opening of the main body 110.

[0043] The ring portion 122 can be formed into a ring shape with a predetermined vertical width, and the hinge cover 124 can be hinged to the ring portion 122 via the hinge portion 123. The hinge portion 123 can be integrally formed with the ring portion 122 and the hinge cover 124, or it can be separately formed from the ring portion and the hinge cover and can be detachably attached to the ring portion and the hinge cover.

[0044] A stepped portion 125 may be formed on the surface of the ring portion 122 facing the hinge cover 124. The stepped portion 125 creates a large contact area to increase the sealing force and also prevents the corresponding surfaces of the ring portion 122 and the hinge cover 124 from misaligning when the hinge cover 124 is closed.

[0045] A tapered portion 112 is formed on the upper surface of the body 110. When the hinged cover 124 is opened or closed, the tapered portion 112 prevents the inner surface of the hinged cover 124 from getting stuck on the upper part of the body 110, and thus the opening or closing operation can be performed smoothly.

[0046] The anti-ring portion 122 and the hinged cover 124 can be spaced apart from each other by raising the anti-ring unit 130.

[0047] The lift prevention unit 130 may include: a lift prevention rib 132 formed to project upward from the ring portion 122; and a locking groove 134 formed in the inner surface of the hinged cover 124 to engage with the lift prevention rib 132.

[0048] In this case, the seating groove 132a in which the sealing guide protrusion 147 is seated is formed in the lift-prevention rib 132. Furthermore, it is preferable that the lift-prevention rib 132 is formed at a position facing the hinge portion 123.

[0049] Marking portions 115 can be formed on the main body 110 and the covering unit 120, and these marking portions are aligned with each other in the open state of the covering unit 120 so that the open state can be visually inspected.

[0050] The marking portion 115 can be formed as an engraved or embossed portion in the body 110 and the cover unit 120 or on the body and the cover unit, and its design can be varied.

[0051] refer to Figure 3 and Figures 5 to 7 The safety open-close operation unit 140 can control the cover unit 120 to open or close to seal the main body 110. Furthermore, since the cover unit 120 is opened at a specific location to prevent easy opening, it can prevent it from being opened by children or others with poor discernment.

[0052] The safe open-close operation unit 140 may include a sealing member 142 and a sealing operation unit 145.

[0053] The sealing member 142 is formed as a sealing rib that protrudes from the inner surface of the hinged cover 124. More specifically, the sealing member 142 may be formed to protrude from the lower surface of the hinged cover 124 and may contact the inner surface of the opening of the body 110 to seal the opening of the body 110 when the cover unit 120 moves downward through the sealing operation unit 145.

[0054] A tapered portion 143 may be formed on the end portion of the sealing member 142 such that when the hinged cover 124 is closed, the hinged cover 124 can easily enter the interior portion of the opening of the body 110.

[0055] In this invention, although the sealing member 142 is illustrated as being integrally formed with the lower surface of the hinged cover 124, the invention is not limited thereto. The sealing member 142 may be designed differently to change the sealing member 142 to be formed by foaming polyethylene (PE), attached to the lower surface of the cover unit 120, and pressed against the upper surface toward the opening of the body 110.

[0056] The sealing operation unit 145 can move the cover unit 120 downward to bring the sealing member 142 into contact with the opening of the body 110, and includes: a plurality of sealing guide grooves 146 formed to slope downward along the circumferential surface of the body 110 for a predetermined length; sealing guide protrusions 147 formed on the hinged cover 124 to be correspondingly inserted into the sealing guide grooves 146; and an opening 148 formed at a position of the sealing guide grooves 146 except for the end portion, such that the sealing guide protrusions 147 retract from the sealing guide grooves 146 to open the hinged cover 124.

[0057] When the sealing operation unit 145 is rotated, the covering unit 120 can move vertically downward, and the sealing member 142 can enter vertically into the interior portion of the opening of the body 110 and seal the interior portion of the body 110 by the downward movement of the covering unit 120.

[0058] Each sealing guide groove in the sealing guide groove 146 is formed to slope downward in two directions from the opening 148. That is, the opening 148 is formed at the upper end of the sealing guide groove 146, and the horizontal difference between the upper end and the corresponding lower end of the sealing guide groove 146 is the height that allows the sealing member 142 to be inserted into the opening of the body 110.

[0059] Therefore, as Figure 5 and Figure 8As illustrated in A, when each of the sealing guide protrusions 147 is positioned at the lower end of the sealing guide groove 146 by rotation of the cover unit 120, the sealing member 142 is inserted into the opening of the body 110, thereby creating a sealing state. Figure 6 and Figure 8 As illustrated in B, the sealing state is released when the sealing guide protrusion 147 is positioned at the upper end of the sealing guide groove 146 by the rotation of the cover unit 120. For example... Figure 7 and Figure 8 As illustrated in C, the hinged cover 124 can be opened when the sealing guide protrusion 147 retracts through the opening 148.

[0060] As described above, the sealing operation unit 145 can be used to control the opening or closing of the hinged cover 124, the sealing cover unit 120, and also guide the rotation of the cover unit 120.

[0061] The sealing guide grooves 146 formed in the two directions of the opening 148 can be configured to have different lengths. Since the left and right lengths of the sealing guide grooves 146 surrounding the opening 148 are different, the left and right rotation lengths of the covering unit 120 can also be different, allowing for various opening or closing operations. Because the opening or closing operations are not achieved through the opening or closing of the opening 148, safety features are enhanced.

[0062] Specifically, since the opening 148 is formed at a location other than the end portion of the sealing guide groove 146, the cover unit 120 is not easy to open compared to a general structure in which opening is performed at the end of the rotation of the cover unit 120, and thus the safety of children, etc. can be ensured.

[0063] In this embodiment, three sealing guide grooves 146 spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance are formed in the circumferential surface of the body 110, and three sealing guide protrusions 147 are formed on the inner surface of the hinged cover 124 to correspond to the sealing guide grooves 146. The number of sealing guide grooves 146 and sealing guide protrusions 147 is not limited thereto, and their number can be designed differently to vary.

[0064] The sealing operation unit 145 may include a sealing reinforcement portion 150 that enhances the sealing force between the main body 110 and the cover unit 120.

[0065] The sealing reinforcement portion 150 may be formed in the lower end portion of the sealing guide groove 146, guiding the sealing guide protrusion 147 downward to press the hinged cover 124 toward the ring portion 122, and allowing the sealing member 142 to be inserted deeper into the opening of the body 110, and increasing the contact surface to increase the sealing force.

[0066] like Figure 3 As illustrated, the sealing reinforcement portion 150 can be formed in a shape in which the lower end of the sealing guide groove 146 is slightly inclined downwards rather than in the horizontal direction.

[0067] That is, when the sealing guide protrusion 147 reaches the lower end of the sealing guide groove 146, since the sealing guide protrusion 147 is further guided downward by the sealing reinforcement portion 150, the hinged cover 124 can contact the ring portion 122 more tightly, and the sealing member 142 can be further inserted into the inlet of the body 110. Therefore, the sealing force can be increased.

[0068] at the same time, Figure 4 This is a view of a modified example of the sealing operation unit 145. A plurality of sealing guide grooves 146 formed along the circumferential surface of the body 110 can be connected to each other. In this modified example, since the sealing guide grooves 146 are formed along the entire circumferential surface of the body 110, the cover unit 120 can rotate continuously in one direction while moving up and down along the sealing guide grooves 146.

[0069] Furthermore, in the modified example, similar to the sealing guide groove 146, the auxiliary guide groove 162 (described below) is formed in the entire circumferential surface of the body 110.

[0070] The safe open-close operation unit 140 may also include an auxiliary guide portion 160 that guides the sealing operation of the covering unit 120 performed by the sealing operation unit 145.

[0071] The auxiliary guide portion 160 may include: a plurality of auxiliary guide grooves 162 formed in the body 110 parallel to the sealing guide groove 146; and an auxiliary guide protrusion 164 formed to protrude from the ring portion 122 to be inserted into the auxiliary guide groove 162.

[0072] A positioning protrusion 163, which temporarily fixes the position of the auxiliary guide protrusion 164, is formed in the auxiliary guide groove 162. Each positioning protrusion 163 may be formed in the auxiliary guide groove 162 at the lower end of a corresponding auxiliary guide groove and the upper end of the auxiliary guide.

[0073] The positioning protrusion 163 can be formed in a shape that protrudes upward from the lower surface of the auxiliary guide groove 162, which can temporarily fix the position of the corresponding auxiliary guide protrusion 164 that moves past the positioning protrusion 163 at the current position, and thus prevents the cover unit 120 from rotating unintentionally.

[0074] Furthermore, the positioning protrusions 163 formed at the upper end of the auxiliary guide groove 162 are formed as a pair of positioning protrusions 163, which are formed on a straight line corresponding to the edge of the opening 148 and spaced apart from each other by the width of the opening 148.

[0075] Therefore, the user can identify the closed state of the cover unit 120 or the open state of the hinged cover 124 by locating the protrusion 163.

[0076] The auxiliary guide groove 162 and the sealing guide groove 146 are connected by a connecting groove 170. The connecting groove 170 is part for assembling and separating the cover unit 120, and the cover unit 120 can be assembled and separated through the opening 148 of the sealing guide groove 146 and the connecting groove 170 connecting the sealing guide groove 146 and the auxiliary guide groove 162.

[0077] The undercut portion 172 is formed in the connecting groove 170 to prevent the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 from separating from the auxiliary guide groove 162 into the connecting groove 170.

[0078] The connecting groove 170 may be formed to slope upward in the opposite direction to the auxiliary guide groove 162, and the undercut portion 172 may protrude inward from the edge of the lower end portion of the connecting groove 170 to prevent the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 from entering the connecting groove 170 when the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 moves along the auxiliary guide groove 162.

[0079] Furthermore, the auxiliary guide groove 162 and the sealing guide groove 146 have the same vertical width, and the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 is formed to be slightly smaller than the sealing guide protrusion 147. This can be a configuration for the operation of the sealing reinforcement portion 150, and allows the sealing guide protrusion 147 to be guided downward by the sealing reinforcement portion 150.

[0080] Of course, the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 and the sealing guide protrusion 147 can also be made to be the same size, and the vertical width of the auxiliary guide groove 162 is slightly larger than the vertical width of the sealing guide groove 146.

[0081] According to this embodiment, the body 110 and the cover unit 120 can be formed from a single material. For example, the body 110 and the cover unit 120 can be formed from a single material such as polypropylene (PP). Since all the above-mentioned components are formed from a single material, products that take into account resource recycling or the environment can be provided.

[0082] At the same time, such as Figure 10 As illustrated, in the modified example of body 110, the containment space in which the contents are contained can be formed in body 110.

[0083] Since the main body 110 is formed to have a predetermined height and is provided with a bottom surface and a accommodating space with a predetermined capacity, the main body 110 can be connected to the covering unit 120 and used as a container C.

[0084] The operation and effects of a two-way locking one-touch cap according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

[0085] Reference Figure 3 The assembly of the main body 110 and the cover unit 120 is described. A sealing guide groove 146 and an auxiliary guide groove 162 are recessed into the upper and lower portions of the circumferential surface of the main body 110, respectively, to be parallel to each other and have the same shape. A sealing guide protrusion 147 and an auxiliary guide protrusion 164, inserted therein, are formed in the ring portion 122 and the hinged cover 124, respectively, to be collinear with each other. In this case, the sealing guide groove 146 is formed in two directions around the opening 148.

[0086] After the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 formed on the ring portion 122 is inserted through the opening 148, the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 enters the auxiliary guide groove 162 through the connecting groove 170. Then, the ring portion 122 is rotated to move the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 to the upper end of the auxiliary guide groove 162, and the sealing guide protrusion 147 formed on the hinged cover 124 enters the sealing guide groove 146 through the opening 148 to complete the assembly of the main body 110 and the cover unit 120.

[0087] Reference Figures 5 to 8 Describe the sealing and opening operations of the covering unit 120.

[0088] like Figure 5 and Figure 8 As illustrated in A, when each of the sealing guide protrusion 147 and the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 is positioned at the lower end of the sealing guide groove 146, the sealing member 142, which is formed to protrude from the inner surface of the hinged cover 124, can come into close contact with the inner surface of the opening of the body 110 to seal the opening of the body 110 as the cover unit 120 moves to the lower portion of the body 110.

[0089] A positioning protrusion 163 may be formed at the lower end of the auxiliary guide groove 162 to fix the position of the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 and thus prevent unintended movement of the cover unit 120.

[0090] Furthermore, since the downwardly inclined sealing reinforcement portion 150 is formed at the lower end of the sealing guide groove 146, the sealing reinforcement portion 150 can press the hinged cover 124 downward more forcefully, and thus can increase the sealing force of the cover unit 120 (see...). Figure 3 ).

[0091] If the user wants to open the coverage unit 120, such as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As illustrated in B, when the cover unit 120 rotates in one direction, the sealing guide protrusion 147 and the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 move along the sealing guide groove 146 and the auxiliary guide groove 162, respectively, and the cover unit 120 moves upward from the body 110.

[0092] When the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 moves past the positioning protrusion 163 formed at the upper end of the auxiliary guide groove 162 and reaches its upper end, the sealing guide protrusion 147 aligns with the opening 148.

[0093] The contact between the sealing member 142 formed on the hinge cover 124 and the inner surface of the opening of the body 110 can be released by the upward movement of the cover unit 120 to release the seal, and the hinge cover 124 can ensure space that allows the hinge to open or close.

[0094] In this configuration, the ring portion 122 and the hinge cover 124 are kept in a closed state without gaps by the lift-prevention unit 130, which prevents the ring portion 122 and the hinge cover 124 from being spaced apart from each other. Since the lift-prevention rib 132 formed on the ring portion 122 facing the hinge portion 123 is fastened to the locking groove 134 of the hinge cover 124, the ring portion 122 and the hinge cover 124 can always be kept in a closed state in both the sealed and open positions of the cover unit 120. This has the effect of improving product quality.

[0095] Then, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As illustrated in C, since the sealing guide protrusion 147 is aligned with the opening 148, the user can rotate and open the hinged cover 124 to open the interior portion of the body 110.

[0096] When the contents of the main body 110 are no longer in use, the hinged cover 124 closes and the cover unit 120 rotates in one or the other direction. As the sealing guide protrusion 147 and the auxiliary guide protrusion 164 move along the sealing guide groove 146 and the auxiliary guide groove 162 respectively, the cover unit 120 moves downward, so that the main body 110 can be sealed again and the cover unit 120 can remain in the locked state.

[0097] like Figure 3 and Figure 8 As illustrated, since the sealing guide groove 146 is formed in two directions around the opening 148, it can be locked in both directions and can prevent safety-related accidents by preventing children, the elderly, mentally disabled or people with poor discernment from opening it.

[0098] More specifically, in the bidirectional locking one-touch cover 100 according to the invention, the hinged cover 124 can be opened at a specific location forming the opening 148. Since the opening 148 is formed at a location other than the end portion of the sealing guide groove 146, security is ensured.

[0099] That is, since the opening 148 is formed on the middle portion of the sealing guide groove 146 rather than on the end portion of the sealing guide groove 146, concentrated and precise manipulation is required to align the sealing guide protrusion 147 and the opening 148.

[0100] Therefore, unlike the general structure in which the covering unit 120 rotates and reaches the open position and opens, the difficulty of opening the covering unit 120 is increased.

[0101] That is, because children, the elderly, and people with mental disabilities lack concentration and have poor strength control, they have difficulty making precise manipulations, and therefore it can prevent easy opening, thereby preventing safety-related accidents caused by accidentally opening the contents.

[0102] In this configuration, the lengths of the left and right sealing guide grooves 146 surrounding the opening 148 can be varied. Since the rotational length of the cover unit 120 changes depending on the direction, various opening and closing operations can be performed. Because precise manipulation is required to adjust the position of the opening 148, safety features are enhanced.

[0103] At the same time, such as Figure 10 As illustrated, since the body 110 is formed to have a predetermined height and a bottom surface, a receiving space capable of accommodating contents is formed, and therefore the body 110 can be used as a container C.

[0104] As described above, the present invention has the following effects: maintaining the convenience of one-touch opening or closing of the cover, improving the sealing function by allowing the cover unit to rotate and move vertically downward, improving convenience by allowing bidirectional locking, and preventing safety-related accidents by preventing children, the elderly, mentally disabled persons, or persons with poor discernment from easily opening the one-touch cover.

[0105] Although the invention has been described with reference to embodiments illustrated in the accompanying drawings, these embodiments are merely exemplary.
