[0029] In order to fully understand the present invention, the operational advantages of the present invention, and the objectives that can be achieved by implementing the present invention, it is necessary to refer to the drawings showing preferred embodiments of the present invention and the contents shown in the drawings.
[0030] Hereinafter, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to explain the present invention in detail. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same components.
[0031] Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of a cosmetic container according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a combined cross-sectional view of a cosmetic container according to the present invention, Figure 3 yes Figure 2 A magnified view of part A. Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the positions of the nozzle, the first partition wall and the dip tube according to the present invention.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 3 According to the present invention, the cosmetic container 100 includes an inner cover 300 coupled to the injection port 210 of the container 200 containing the contents; a pump 500 coupled to the inner cover 300 and inserted into the injection port 210 of the container 200 to discharge a certain amount of the contents each time; a button 400 disposed on the upper part of the inner cover 300, which activates the pump 500 by pressing, and has a nozzle 470 on one side for discharging the contents; and a suction tube 600 having one end connected to the pump 500, the other end inclined downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470, and the terminal end disposed on the bottom edge of the container 200.
[0033] When a small amount of content remains in the container 200, a general user covers the container 200 with his hand, tilts the container 200, and presses the button 400 to discharge the content with the tip of the nozzle 470 facing the outside of the hand.
[0034] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned usage habits of users, the present invention arranges the dip tube 600 to be tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470 so that the end of the dip tube 600 is located at the bottom edge of the container 200, so that the contents in the container 200 can be discharged smoothly even when a small amount of contents remain in the container 200. In this way, the contents in the container 200 can be completely used up.
[0035] The inner cap 300 according to the present embodiment is detachably coupled to the injection port 210 of the container 200 in a state where the pump 500 is coupled thereto, and plays a role in supporting the pump 500 .
[0036] A second bulkhead 310 in a hollow tube shape is formed at the center of the inner cover 300, and a piston guide 550 of a pump 500 described later is inserted through the second bulkhead 310 at the upper portion of the inner cover 300. In addition, inside the second bulkhead 310, the piston guide 550 is slid and raised in the height direction by pressing a button 400 described later.
[0037] In addition, the lifting range of the piston guide 550 is limited by the second partition wall 310. This is because during the lifting of the piston guide 550 inside the second partition wall 310, the third limit protrusion 553 protruding outward from the lower end of the piston guide 550 is hooked on the lower end of the second partition wall 310 to limit the lifting.
[0038] A housing 510 coupled to a pump 500 described later is inserted under the inner cover 300. Thus, the second partition wall 310 is disposed between the housing 510 and the piston guide 550. That is, the housing 510 is disposed outside the second partition wall 310, and the piston guide 550 is disposed inside the second partition wall 310.
[0039] On the other hand, when the inner cover 300 is screwed into the injection port 210 of the container 200, in order to prevent the contents in the container 200 from leaking, a rubber sealing ring 700 can be provided which is in close contact with the lower surface of the first flange 515 of the outer shell 510 described later and in close contact with the upper surface of the injection port 210.
[0040] The button 400 according to this embodiment is disposed on the upper portion of the inner cover 300 and is connected to the pump 500, and plays a role of activating the pump 500 by pressing. A nozzle 470 for discharging the contents is provided on one side of the button 400.
[0041] A third partition wall 410 having a hollow tube shape is formed inside the button 400. A third flow path 430 communicating with a second flow path 552 formed inside a piston guide 550 described later is formed inside the third partition wall 410 along the longitudinal direction.
[0042] On the other hand, in this embodiment, unlike the prior art, in order to prevent the button 400 from rotating on the upper part of the inner cover 300 and fix the position of the button 400 relative to the inner cover 300, a first limiting protrusion 450 protruding outward is formed on the outer side wall of the button 400, and correspondingly, a first limiting groove 330 into which the first limiting protrusion 450 is inserted is formed on the inner side wall of the inner cover 300. The first limiting groove 330 is formed to be longer from the upper end of the inner cover 300 downward, so that when the button 400 is combined with the inner cover 300, the first limiting protrusion 450 is slidably inserted from the upper part of the first limiting groove 330 to the lower part.
[0043] Therefore, through the hooking combination of the first limiting protrusion 450 and the first limiting groove 330, the position of the button 400 combined with the inner cover 300 is fixed, and the position of the nozzle 470 set on the button 400 is also fixed.
[0044] The pump 500 according to the present embodiment functions to discharge a certain amount of the content in the container 200 each time.
[0045] Specifically, the pump 500 includes: a housing 510, which is formed in a protruding manner in which the upper end is combined with the inner cover 300 and the lower end is inserted into the injection port 210 of the container 200, and one end of the dip tube 600 is connected and combined with the lower end, so that the content flows into the receiving space S formed inside through the first content flow inlet 511 formed on the bottom surface; a piston part 530, which is inserted into the upper end of the housing 510 and is lifted and lowered in a state of being closely attached to the inner side wall of the housing 510, and a first flow path 532 connected to the receiving space S is formed inside along the length direction; a piston guide part 550, which supports the button 400 through the upper end, The lower end portion is inserted through the inner cover 300 and is arranged inside the outer shell 510, so that it is lifted and lowered together with the piston portion 530 in a state where the lower end portion is inserted into the upper end portion of the piston portion 530, and a second flow path 552 connected to the first flow path 532 is formed inside along the length direction, and a content discharge port 551 for discharging the content is formed on the upper surface; a spring component 590, which is externally inserted into the piston guide portion 550, thereby elastically supporting the piston guide portion 550 and the button 400; and a one-way valve 570, which is arranged inside the outer shell 510 and is in close contact with the bottom surface of the outer shell 510, thereby opening or closing the first content flow inlet 511.
[0046] According to the present embodiment, the housing 510 forms a storage space S inside for storing contents, which serves to provide a space for the piston part 530 and the piston guide part 550 described later to slide and rise and fall along the length direction of the housing 510 when inserted into the housing 510.
[0047] The outer shell 510 is formed in a protruding manner in which a first flange 515 coupled to the inner cover 300 is formed at the upper end thereof and a lower end thereof is inserted into the injection port 210 of the container 200. The upper end of the outer shell 510 is inserted into the lower side of the inner cover 300, so as to be arranged outside the second partition wall 310, and the first flange 515 formed at the upper end of the outer shell 510 is inserted and coupled to the inner cover 300.
[0048] On the other hand, in this embodiment, in order to prevent the outer shell 510 from rotating in the state of being coupled to the inner cover 300, so as to fix the position of the dipping tube 600 coupled to the lower end of the outer shell 510, a second stop protrusion 517 protruding upward is formed on the upper surface of the first flange 515, and correspondingly, a second stop groove 350 into which the second stop protrusion 517 is inserted is formed on the inner cover 300. Therefore, through the hooking and coupling of the second stop protrusion 517 and the second stop groove 350, the position of the outer shell 510 relative to the inner cover 300 is fixed, and the position of the dipping tube 600 coupled to the lower end of the outer shell 510 and disposed inside the container 200 is also fixed.
[0049] In addition, a first content flow inlet 511 is formed on the bottom surface of the housing 510 so that the content contained in the container 200 flows into the interior of the housing 510. The content flowing into the interior of the housing 510 through the first content flow inlet 511 is contained in a containing space S formed between the inner bottom surface of the housing 510 and the lower end of the piston part 530 described later.
[0050] According to the present embodiment, the piston portion 530 is inserted into the interior of the outer shell 510 and is tightly attached to the inner wall of the outer shell 510, and slides and rises and falls along the length direction of the outer shell 510, thereby causing the contents contained in the receiving space S to be discharged toward the nozzle 470, and causing the contents contained in the container 200 to flow into the receiving space S.
[0051] Specifically, the piston portion 530 includes: a piston rod 531, which is formed in a columnar shape and has a first flow path 532 formed inside along the length direction, and an outer wall is formed with a second content flow inlet 533 for the content contained in the containing space S to flow into the first flow path 532; and a shielding component 536, which is arranged between the piston guide portion 550 and the piston rod 531, and the upper end portion is inserted into the lower end portion of the piston guide portion 550, and the upper end portion of the piston rod 531 is inserted through the lower end portion.
[0052] The piston rod 531 is formed in a columnar shape. The lower end of the piston rod 531 is disposed inside the housing 510, and the upper end is inserted and coupled to the piston guide 550 described later, so the piston rod 531 and the piston guide 550 are moved up and down together in the height direction.
[0053] In addition, a fourth limiting protrusion 534 is formed at the lower end of the piston rod 531, which is hooked on the lower end of the shielding member 536 described later. When the piston rod 531 is linked with the button 400 and descends inside the housing 510, the contents contained in the housing 510 flow into the second content flow inlet 533, move toward the nozzle 470 and are discharged, and when the piston rod 531 rises inside the housing 510, the contents contained in the housing 510 are blocked from flowing into the second content flow inlet 533. At this time, the lifting range of the piston rod 531 is limited by the height of the shielding member 536. That is, the fourth limiting protrusion 534 protruding outward from the lower end of the piston rod 531 is hooked on the lower end of the shielding member 536 to limit the rise.
[0054] The shielding member 536 is disposed between the piston guide 550 and the piston rod 531 , and is linked to the button 400 , and is raised and lowered together with the piston guide 550 and the piston rod 531 .
[0055] A first insertion groove 537 is formed at the upper end of the shielding member 536, and the lower end of the piston guide 550 can be inserted into and closely attached to the first insertion groove 537. Therefore, when the piston guide 550 is moved downward in conjunction with the button 400, the lower end of the piston guide 550 is inserted into and closely attached to the first insertion groove 537, thereby maintaining airtightness, so that when the contents are discharged along the second flow path 552 of the piston guide 550 through the second content flow inlet 533 of the piston rod 531 and the second flow path 552, leakage of the contents can be prevented.
[0056] Furthermore, a second insertion groove 538 is formed at the lower end of the shielding member 536, and an insertion protrusion 535 bent upward from the end of the fourth limiting protrusion 534 of the piston rod 531 is inserted into the second insertion groove 538. Therefore, when the push button 400 is released and the piston rod 531 rises, the insertion protrusion 535 of the piston rod 531 is inserted into and closely adheres to the second insertion groove 538, thereby maintaining airtightness, so that the second content flow inlet 533 of the piston rod 531 can be blocked from flowing into the content.
[0057] In this way, when the piston rod 531 descends, the shielding component 536 exposes the second content flow inlet 533 to allow the content to flow into the second content flow inlet 533 , and when the piston rod 531 rises, the shielding component 536 covers the second content flow inlet 33 to block the content from flowing into the second content flow inlet 533 .
[0058] According to the present embodiment, the piston guide 550 is disposed between the button 400 and the piston 530 , connects the button 400 and the piston 530 to each other, and cooperates with the pressing action of the button 400 to move the piston 530 up and down.
[0059] The button 400 is disposed on the upper portion of the piston guide 550, and a second flange 556 is formed at the upper end of the piston guide 550 to support the button 400. The second flange 556 is inserted under the button 400 to support the button 400 and is coupled to the button 400. Therefore, the piston guide 550 and the button 400 are connected to each other through the second flange 556 and are linked to each other.
[0060] On the other hand, the spring member 590 is externally inserted into the piston guide 550, thereby elastically supporting the piston guide 550 and the button 400. Specifically, one end of the spring member 590 is connected to the lower surface of the second flange 556, and the other end is connected to the inner cover 300, thereby elastically supporting the piston guide 550 and the button 400. When the user presses the button 400, the piston guide 550 and the piston part 530 are linked with the button 400, thereby discharging the contents. When the pressure on the button 400 is released, the spring member 590 returns to its original state, and the piston guide 550 and the piston part 530 rise, thereby blocking the discharge of the contents.
[0061] In addition, the lower end of the piston guide 550 is inserted through the second partition wall 310 of the inner cover 300 to be disposed inside the housing 510 , and the lower end of the piston guide 550 is hooked and coupled to the second partition wall 310 .
[0062] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the lower end of the piston guide 550 to be inserted into the interior of the second partition wall 310, an undercut processing area C is formed at the lower end of the piston guide 550, and at least one cutting groove 554, 555 is formed along the length direction in the undercut processing area C of the piston guide 550. In addition, a third limiting protrusion 553 that is hooked on the lower end of the second partition wall 310 and protrudes outward is formed at the lower end of the undercut processing area C.
[0063] The cutting grooves 554 and 555 generate tension on the lower end of the piston guide 550, so that the lower end of the piston guide 550 can be easily inserted into the second partition wall 310 of the inner cover 300, thereby improving the assembly performance of the piston guide 550 and the inner cover 300.
[0064] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a first cutting groove 554 is formed at the lower end of the undercut processing area C from the lower end of the piston guide 550 toward the upper end, and a second cutting groove 555 can be continuously formed by being separated from the upper side of the first cutting groove 554. This is to increase the elastic force of the lower end of the piston guide 550 to restore the original state by the tension after the lower end of the piston guide 550 is deformed corresponding to the width of the first cutting groove 554 and the second cutting groove 555, and after the piston guide 550 is inserted through the second partition wall 310 and inserted through the second partition wall 310 by separating the first cutting groove 554 and the second cutting groove 555 in the height direction.
[0065] After the lower end of the piston guide 550 is inserted through the second partition wall 310 , the third limiting protrusion 553 is hooked and coupled to the lower end of the second partition wall 310 , thereby assembling the piston guide 550 and the inner cover 300 .
[0066] On the other hand, in order to prevent the piston guide part 550 from moving in a direction opposite to the direction of insertion into the second partition wall 310 after the lower end of the piston guide part 550 is hooked and engaged with the second partition wall 310, the hooking and engagement between the lower end of the piston guide part 550 and the second partition wall 310 is released through the tension of the first cutting groove 554 and the second cutting groove 555. According to this embodiment, the inner side wall of the first insertion groove 537 formed at the upper end of the shielding part 536 is arranged between the piston guide part 550 and the piston rod 531.
[0067] After the lower end of the piston guide 550 is inserted into the second partition wall 310, the shielding member 536 and the piston rod 531 are sequentially inserted into the lower end of the piston guide 550, so that the inner side wall of the first insertion groove 537 formed at the upper end of the shielding member 536 is closely attached to the inner side wall of the lower end of the piston guide 550 formed with the bite processing area C. Thus, the lower end of the piston guide 550 formed with the first cutting groove 554 and the second cutting groove 555 can be prevented from shrinking, and the clamping combination of the piston guide 550 and the second partition wall 310 can be prevented from being released.
[0068] Furthermore, as described above, the upper end of the piston rod 531 is inserted into the lower end of the piston guide 550, so the piston guide 550 is lifted and lowered together with the piston rod 531. Furthermore, while the piston guide 550 is lifted and lowered inside the second partition wall 310, the third limiting protrusion 553 is hooked on the lower end of the second partition wall 310, so the lifting range of the piston guide 550 is limited.
[0069] Furthermore, a linear second flow path 552 communicating with the first flow path 532 of the piston part 530 is formed in the piston guide part 550 along the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, a content discharge port 551 for discharging the content moving along the second flow path 552 is formed on the upper surface of the piston guide part 550 .
[0070] On the other hand, a third partition wall 410 in the shape of a hollow tube inserted into the upper portion of the piston guide 550 is formed inside the button 400. In addition, a linear third flow path 430 communicating with the second flow path 552 is formed inside the third partition wall 410 along the length direction. Therefore, by pressing the button 400, the content contained in the storage space S of the housing 510 rises vertically along the first flow path 532, the second flow path 552, the content discharge port 551, and the third flow path 430 without being twisted, and then is discharged through the nozzle 470 provided in the button 400.
[0071] According to the present embodiment, the one-way valve 570 is disposed inside the housing 510 , and serves to open or close the content flow inlet according to the pressing action of the button 400 .
[0072] The one-way valve 570 is disposed to be in close contact with the inner bottom surface of the housing 510 where the first content flow inlet 511 is formed.
[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, the one-way valve 570 includes: an annular ring portion 571 combined with the inside of the outer shell 510; a switch portion 572 which is arranged in the center of the ring portion 571 and corresponds to the size of the content flow inlet, and has a recessed groove 573 symmetrically arranged in the upper and lower parts of the center portion; one end is connected to the ring portion 571, and the other end is connected to the switch portion 572, so that the ring portion 571 and the switch portion 572 are connected to each other, and a plurality of annular belts 574 with inflow holes 575 for content flow in are formed between the ring portion 571 and the switch portion 572.
[0074] The ring portion 571 is pressed into place tightly against the inner bottom surface of the shell 510, thereby being snapped into place with the shell 510. A protrusion 513 is formed on the bottom surface of the shell 510 forming a content flow inlet. The protrusion 513 is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the recessed groove 573, thereby being inserted and tightly fitted into the recessed groove 573.
[0075] In addition, a protrusion 513 is formed on the bottom surface of the shell 510 at which a content flow inlet is formed opposite to the recessed groove 573 formed in the center of the switch portion 572. The protrusion 513 is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the recessed groove 573 so as to be inserted tightly into the recessed groove 573.
[0076] When the button 400 is lifted and restored by the spring member 590, the piston guide 550 and the piston rod 531 are lifted and the switch 572 moves upward due to the vacuum pressure. As a result, the first content flow inlet 511 is opened, and the content fills the storage space S of the housing 510 along the inflow hole 575.
[0077] On the contrary, when the pressurizing button 400 and thus the piston guide 550 and the piston rod 531 are lowered, the contents contained in the storage space S are discharged through the second content flow inlet 533, the first flow path 532, the second flow path 552, the content discharge port 551, and the third flow path 430 through the nozzle 470. Furthermore, when the piston part 530 is lowered, the switch part 572 of the check valve 570 is lowered by the pressure applied to the storage space S by the piston part 530, thereby closing the first content flow inlet 511 and preventing the contents from moving to the container 200.
[0078] The dip tube 600 according to the present embodiment functions as a flow path for moving the contents contained in the container 200 to the pump 500 .
[0079] like Figure 2 As shown, one end of the dip tube 600 is connected to the lower end of the housing 510, and the other end of the dip tube 600 is tilted downward at a predetermined angle, and the end is located at the bottom edge of the container 200. This is in consideration of the user's habit of tilting the container 200 when there is a small amount of content left in the container 200 as described above, so that the end of the other end of the dip tube 600 is located at the bottom edge of the container 200.
[0080] Furthermore, generally, the user covers the container 200 with his / her hand and presses the button 400 with the tip of the nozzle 470 facing outward of the hand, so the other end of the suction tube 600 is tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470 .
[0081] And, if Figure 4 4 shows that, in order to completely use up a small amount of content remaining in the container 200, the tip of the nozzle 470 and the end of the other end of the dip tube 600 are located on the same virtual plane B perpendicular to the bottom surface of the container 200. That is, the virtual plane B connecting the tip of the nozzle 470 and the end of the other end of the dip tube 600 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the container 200.
[0082] On the other hand, in this embodiment, when the dip tube 600 is connected to the lower end of the housing 510, a first partition wall 519 having a hollow tube shape and tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470 is extended from the lower end of the housing 510, so that the dip tube 600 is tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470. Figure 4 It is shown that the end of the first partition wall 519 and the tip of the nozzle 470 are located on the same virtual plane B perpendicular to the bottom surface of the container 200. That is, the virtual plane B connecting the end of the first partition wall 519 and the tip of the nozzle 470 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the container 200.
[0083] The first partition wall 519 plays a guiding role so that the dip tube 600 is tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470, and the other end of the dip tube 600 is located at the bottom edge of the container 200. That is, when one end of the dip tube 600 is inserted and fixed in the first partition wall 519, the dip tube 600 is tilted downward at a predetermined angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470, and the other end of the dip tube 600 is located at the bottom edge of the container 200.
[0084] As described above, the cosmetic container 100 according to the present invention fixes the position of the button 400 relative to the inner cover 300 and the position of the outer shell 510 relative to the inner cover 300, so that the dip tube 600 is tilted downward at a specified angle toward the tip of the nozzle 470, and the end of the other end of the dip tube 600 is located at the bottom edge of the container 200. When a small amount of content remains in the container 200, the tip of the nozzle 470 is directed toward the outside of the hand, and the nozzle 470 is tilted downward at a specified angle. After being positioned, the content in the container 200 can be completely used up by simply pressing the button 400, thereby improving ease of use.
[0085] Next, the use state of the cosmetic container 100 according to the present invention constructed as described above will be described.
[0086] Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 2 is a diagram showing a cosmetic container in use according to the present invention.
[0087] In particular, when a small amount of contents remain on the bottom of the container 200 and the end of the dip tube 600 is not immersed in the contents, the contents cannot be discharged by the pump 500. At this time, the user can open the inner cover 300 of the container 200 and discharge the remaining contents by hand or other tools.
[0088] In order to solve the inconvenience of such users, Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, according to the cosmetic container 100 of the present invention, the user can tilt the container 200 while covering the container 200 with his hand, so that the tip of the nozzle 470 is facing the outside of the hand, and a small amount of content can be discharged by just pressing the button 400, thereby improving the convenience of use and completely using up the content.
[0089] Next, the operation of discharging the contents when a small amount of the contents remains in the container 200 will be described.
[0090] like Figure 5 2, the user tilts the container 200 while covering the container 200 with his hand. Then, the user first presses the button 400 to discharge the contents in the container 200. When the button 400 is pressed, the piston guide 550 supporting the button 400 and the piston part 530 coupled to the inside of the piston guide 550 are lowered together.
[0091] Afterwards, as the piston portion 530 descends in the receiving space S of the housing 510, due to the pressure applied to the receiving space S, the contents filled in the receiving space S are discharged to the outside through the second content flow inlet 533, the first flow path 532, the second flow path 552, the content discharge outlet 551 and the nozzle 470 in sequence.
[0092] At this time, due to the downward pressure applied by the piston part 530, the recessed groove 573 of the switch part 572 is tightly attached to the protrusion 513 formed at the first content flow inlet 511, thereby blocking the content in the container 200 from flowing into the receiving space S.
[0093] Afterwards, if Figure 6 As shown, the button 400 is raised and restored by the spring member 590, thereby the piston guide 550 and the piston rod 531 are raised, and the switch portion 572 of the one-way valve 570 moves upward due to the vacuum pressure. After that, the first content flow inlet 511 is opened, and the content fills the receiving space S of the housing 510 along the inflow hole 575.
[0094] As described above, the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments, and those skilled in the art may obtain various modifications and variations without departing from the concept and scope of the present invention. Therefore, such modifications or variations should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
