Standard Capacity Discharge Case of Liquid Content

Abstract

The present design relates in general to an automatic pencil type case enabling a user to discharge a liquid cosmetic to a brush by pressing a release button, more specifically, to an improved structure of a dispensing unit dispensing a liquid cosmetic product to thereby enhance productivity in assembly process and reduce manufacturing cost at the same time. As such, a liquid foundation case capable of discharging liquid content reserved in a body to a makeup brush through a pressing down operation of a release button, includes: a body (10) formed of a first case (11) where the liquid content is reserved and a second case (12) in which a pump tube (30) is installed; a check valve (20) mounted in the first case (11); a pump tube (30) installed inside the second case (12); a valve (50) mounted on the front end of the pump tube (30); a release button (60) for pressing down the pump tube (30); and a makeup brush (40) installed on an exposed end of the second case (12).

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present design relates to an automatic pencil type case enabling a user to discharge a liquid cosmetic to a makeup brush by pressing a release button. More specifically, the present design relates to an improved structure of a discharging unit for use in discharging a liquid cosmetic product, to thereby enhance productivity in assembly process and reduce manufacturing cost at the same time.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Liquid cosmetic products that are liquid and volatile lost their original functions if moisture or volatile solvents are volatilized into air.[0003]Examples of such cosmetic products containing moisture or volatile substances include eyeliner, lip-gloss, lip-color, eye serum, anti wrinkle cream, foundation cream and so on.[0004]These cosmetics are preferably stored in a container minimizing their contact with air. There have been devised a variety of containers that can minimize contact of the cosmetics with air.[0005]Among them is a cosmetic container ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0010]As mentioned above and will be described below, the standard capacity discharge case of liquid content according to the present design is built in a manner that when a user presses a pump tube 30 installed inside a second case 12, the pump tube 30 is compressed to thereby liquid content having been held in the pump tube 30 is discharged towards a makeup brush 40 through a content discharge passage 32; and when an external force applied to the release button 60 is removed and thus, the pump tube 30 is pumped up, a content inlet 31 having been blocked by an opening / closing bar 22 of a check valve 20 is opened and the content reserved in a first case 11 flows in the pump tube 30. Accordingly, the present design can be advantageously used for simplifying the structure of a cosmetic container having a brush and for resolving difficulties in manufacture by eliminating ultra precision machining used in the conventional dispensing means. Also, the present design can reduce manufacturing cost in connection with production, and further manpower-related expenses thanks to the simplified work processes in assembly process. As such, productivity may be improved and mass production of the cosmetic product(s) becomes possible. Further, the present design can prevent deteriorations in reliability of cosmetic products caused by functional loss of the content dispensing means.

Problems solved by technology

Even though such a container had benefits in that it is capable of dispensing a fixed quality of the liquid cosmetic and preventing volatilization of volatile substances therein, the content dispensing mechanism is so complicated that it was difficult not only to reduce production cost involved in manufacturing process, but also to input a lot of manpower to such a complicated assembly process.

This led to a substantial increase in assembling time and low productivity.
