[0071] like Figure 4 As shown, a cosmetic container includes an imitation leather decorative piece, which is attached to the assembly surface of the cosmetic container 200, and the assembly surface includes a plane or a curved surface. The assembly surface includes an upper surface and / or surrounding side surfaces, that is, the decorative piece can be attached to the upper surface of the cosmetic container, or the surrounding side surfaces of the cosmetic container, or the upper surface and surrounding side surfaces of the cosmetic container. Among them, the upper surface of the cosmetic container can be a plane or a curved surface, and the surrounding side walls of the cosmetic container are curved surfaces. That is, the decorative piece can be attached to the assembly surface such as a plane or a curved surface of the cosmetic container 200.

[0072] The decorative piece is assembled on the mounting surface of the cosmetic container 200 by bonding, clamping or hot pressing. The decorative piece has a leather-like appearance and leather-like touch. When attached to the mounting surface of the cosmetic container, it not only protects the container, but also gives people a leather-like visual sense, thereby improving the grade of the product.

[0073] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the decorative piece includes a decorative piece body 100, and the decorative piece body 100 includes a decorative portion 113, and the decorative portion 113 includes at least one of a protrusion, a groove and a suture line. The decorative portion 113 and the decorative piece body 100 are integrally formed by injection molding. The imitation leather decorative piece includes a decorative piece body 100, and the decorative piece body 100 includes a first surface 110 and a second surface 120 arranged opposite to each other. The first surface 110 includes a ridge 111 and a recessed portion 112 arranged at intervals from each other, and the projection of the recessed portion 112 on the second surface 120 is a joint portion, and the joint portion is used to make the decorative piece body 100 and the cosmetic container 200 be combined. Among them, the first surface 110 of the decorative piece body 100 is an outer surface, the second surface 120 is an inner surface, and the joint portion is a part of the second surface 120. Optionally, the joint portion is a plane, and the joint portion is directly attached to the outer surface of the cosmetic container by glue or tape, so as to achieve the function of protecting and decorating the container through the first surface 110; the first surface 110 is a decorative outer surface. The shape of the decorative part body 100 can be adjusted according to the structure of the cosmetic container, for example, it can be rectangular, square, oval, circular, etc. In addition to the decorative part body, the decorative part can also include other components. For example, the first surface 110 of the decorative part body 100 can be attached with a protective film for protecting the patch substrate, and the second surface 120 can be attached with an adhesive layer for sticking the patch substrate to the surface of the cosmetic container. This decorative part has a leather-like appearance and leather-like touch. It is attached to the outer surface of the cosmetic container, which not only protects the container, but also gives people a leather-like visual sense, improving the grade of the product; this decorative part is made of plastic material, which is more wear-resistant and elastic than leather; compared with the traditional pressed silicone substrate combined with imitation leather surface products, this decorative part has high hardness, strong toughness, and is more durable.

[0074] A decorative portion 113 is disposed on the first surface 110 . The decorative portion 113 is recessed toward the second surface 120 , or the decorative portion 113 protrudes from the raised portion 111 . Figure 4 The decorative part 113 shown in the figure is A. In practical applications, the letter A can be made into any image. The decorative part 113 can be any uppercase or lowercase letter, number, Chinese character or other special symbol. The symbol is directly formed during the molding process of the decorative part, which is simple and convenient to manufacture. The decorative part of the decorative part can be selected from the decorative part that the consumer likes, or the character with a specific meaning, so as to meet the diverse needs of consumers. In another possible implementation, the groove formed by the decorative part 113 can be inlaid or pasted with a corresponding insert. In other implementations, the decorative part 113 can also be designed as a convexity, and the decorative part 113 protrudes from the raised part 11, that is, the decorative part is higher than the first surface 110, and the consumer can touch the symbol, and the overall structure of the decorative part is more three-dimensional and more novel.

[0075] There is a cavity between the decorative part body 100 and the assembly surface of the cosmetic container 200. There is a cavity between the decorative part body 100 and the container assembly surface. When the decorative part is pressed, the part of the decorative part with the cavity can be deformed to improve the hand feel. Traditional leather materials can be deformed when pressed by the tension of the material itself, while the imitation leather decorative part of the present application can have the same pressing deformation effect and hand feel as leather through the effect of the cavity. If there is no cavity, the material is relatively hard when pressed, the deformation degree is very low, and the hand feel is not good, so the material requirements of the decorative part are relatively high.

[0076] The cavity may not be filled with any substance, but may be filled with a soft filler, such as sponge, foam, cotton, silica gel, or other flexible material.

[0077] The decorative portion 113 divides the cavity into M sub-cavities, and the lower surface of the decorative portion 113 is attached to the mounting surface of the cosmetic container 200, where M≥2, and M is an integer. That is, the lower surface of the decorative portion 113 is convex toward the cosmetic container, and the lower surface of the decorative portion 113 is attached to the mounting surface of the cosmetic container 200 to divide the cavity into 2, 3, or more than 3 sub-cavities.

[0078] The decorative part body 100 at the corresponding part of the cavity is a convex arc structure, and if two points are taken at random on the decorative part body 100 at the corresponding part of the cavity, the thickness of the decorative part body 100 at the two points is D1 and D2 respectively, and the difference between D1 and D2 is less than the tolerance of the decorative part body. That is, the decorative part body 10 at the corresponding part of the cavity is a convex arc structure with the same thickness.

[0079] A method for preparing an imitation leather decorative piece comprises the following steps:

[0080] Manufacturing thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles: mixing raw materials uniformly and injecting them into a twin-screw extruder for granulation to obtain thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles, wherein the raw materials include polyol, isocyanate and chain extender;

[0081] Injection-molded imitation leather decorative parts: thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles, antioxidants and lubricants are injected into an injection molding machine, and the imitation leather decorative parts are obtained by injection molding using the injection molding machine.

[0082] The process for producing thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles comprises the following steps:

[0091] Molding: Inject the molten mixture into the mold of the injection molding machine for injection molding to obtain imitation leather decorative parts. The present application first degasses the raw materials such as polyols, isocyanates and chain extenders, mixes and dries the raw materials, and then uses a twin-screw extruder to granulate to obtain thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles. The hardness, elasticity, elongation and other indicators of the plastic polyurethane elastomer obtained by using a specific raw material ratio can meet the needs of imitation leather decorative parts. Finally, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles obtained by injection molding and chemical additives such as antioxidants and lubricants are used to obtain an integrally molded imitation leather decorative part through injection molding by an injection molding machine. Therefore, the production cost of the decorative part is low, which is conducive to large-scale industrial production, and the wear resistance is good, and it is not easy to wear and tear, and the product can maintain its beauty for a long time.

[0092] Wherein, the material also includes at least one of polyolefin, masterbatch and anti-adhesive. In the step of injecting into the injection molding machine, at least one of polyolefin, masterbatch and anti-adhesive is added into the injection molding machine and hot-melted together with thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles. During injection molding, at least one of the masterbatch and polyolefin is put into the injection molding machine and injection-molded together with the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer particles to obtain leather decorative parts, which can improve the toughness of the leather decorative parts and make the leather decorative parts have a more comfortable feel and are not sticky. During injection molding, only polyolefin or masterbatch can be added, or polyolefin and masterbatch can be added at the same time to obtain leather decorative parts of different colors.

[0093] In the degassing step, the degassing time is 10-30 minutes, and in the mixing step, the drying conditions of the mixture are: temperature 80-95° C., time 3-4 hours.
