Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cosmetics, in particular to a cosmetic container which is convenient for scraping materials. Background Art

[0002] In everyday cosmetics use, products like mascara and lip gloss often rely on a dipstick to scoop up the liquid from the container. To control the amount of liquid dispensed and prevent excess liquid from affecting usage, a common practice is to install a scraper mechanism on the container's spout. This mechanism scrapes off excess liquid from the bristles when the dipstick is removed.

[0003] However, this traditional nozzle scraping design has many problems that need to be solved:

[0004] 1. When the scraping part is made of soft material, its scraping force is insufficient, making it difficult to completely remove the excess cream on the bristles, which not only leads to thick and uneven makeup, but also causes waste of cream;

[0005] 2. If hard materials are used to make scraping parts, although it can enhance the scraping effect, it will cause friction damage to the delicate bristles during the scraping process, significantly shortening the life of the dip stick and increasing the user's replacement cost;

[0006] 3. The scraping structure is usually fixedly connected to the nozzle. The scraped paste tends to remain at the connection and gradually solidify to form lumps, which not only affects the sealing of the container, but also hinders the smooth entry and exit of the dipping rod, causing operational inconvenience to the user.

[0007] These problems have long plagued the user experience of cosmetic containers and urgently require a better scraping solution to solve them. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a cosmetic container that is convenient for scraping materials, thereby solving the problems of insensitive sensing and single storage device of the above-mentioned slag removal equipment.

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a cosmetic container that is convenient for scraping materials, including a container and a dipping stick plugged into the container. A scraper ring is provided at the opening of the container, and the scraper ring includes a fixed upper hard ring and a scraper lower soft ring connected to the fixed hard ring. The fixed upper hard ring is fixed at the opening of the container, and the scraper lower soft ring extends into the container. The opening of the scraper lower soft ring is smaller than the opening of the fixed upper hard ring.

[0010] When the dip rod is extended into the container, the scraper lower soft ring passes through the dip rod and is interference-connected with the head of the dip rod; when the dip rod is pulled out of the container, the scraper lower soft ring can be deformed and retracted into the fixed upper hard ring, and the outer surface of the scraper lower soft ring is scraped with the dip rod head.

[0011] Preferably, the fixed upper hard ring includes a hard ring body and a first protrusion arranged at the end of the hard ring body. The hard ring body is provided with a supporting structure, and the supporting structure supports the hard ring body to fit the inner wall of the container without deformation. The first protrusion abuts against the end face of the container.

[0012] Preferably, the supporting structure is a supporting rib, which is arranged on the inner wall surface of the hard ring body, and a plurality of supporting ribs are provided.

[0013] Preferably, a second convex edge extending perpendicularly to the first convex edge is provided on the first convex edge.

[0014] Preferably, a groove corresponding to the second convex edge is provided in the handle portion of the dipping stick.

[0015] When the dipping rod is plugged into the container, the second convex edge is inserted into the groove.

[0016] Preferably, a connection area is provided on the outer wall of one end of the hard ring body away from the first protrusion, and the scraper lower soft ring is sleeved outside the connection area.

[0017] Preferably, the scraper lower soft ring includes a connecting portion and a scraper portion, the connecting portion is sleeved outside the connection area, the scraper portion and the connecting portion are an integrated structure, and a smooth arc transition is formed between the two, and the scraper portion is a tapered shape with a width at the top and a narrowness at the bottom;

[0018] When the dip rod is extended into the container, the scraping portion passes through the dip rod and is interference-connected with the head of the dip rod; when the dip rod is pulled out of the container, the scraping portion turns inward and retracts into the fixed upper hard ring, and the outer surface of the scraping portion scrapes the head of the dip rod.

[0019] Preferably, a plurality of linear guide grooves are evenly arranged on the outer surface of the scraper portion in a circumferential direction. The linear guide grooves extend along the axial direction of the scraper lower soft ring, and the groove bottom and groove wall of the linear guide groove are both arc transitions.

[0020] Preferably, the inner wall of the scraping portion is provided with a plurality of micro soft protrusions, the micro soft protrusions are hemispherical, and the plurality of micro soft protrusions are distributed in a spiral shape along the inner wall of the scraping portion.

[0021] Preferably, a prying opening is provided on the first convex edge, and the prying opening is a notch that is recessed radially inward along the first convex edge.

[0022] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0023] 1. The utility model takes into account both the scraping effect and the protection of the dipping hair. Through the soft and hard combination design of "fixed upper hard ring + scraper lower soft ring", the fixed upper hard ring provides stable support to ensure that the scraper structure is not easily deformed; the scraper lower soft ring adopts soft elastic material, combined with the tapered structure and the interference fit with the dipping rod head, it can not only generate sufficient scraping force through elastic deformation to remove excess paste, but also avoid the friction damage of hard materials to the delicate dipping hair, solving the contradiction of traditional "soft materials cannot scrape cleanly, and hard materials are easily damaged".

[0024] 2. This new design features a smooth, integrated arc-shaped transition between the connection between the scraper's lower soft ring and the scraper body, eliminating structural blind spots. Linear guide grooves on the scraper's outer surface guide the rapid return of scraped liquid. When the dipping rod is withdrawn, the scraper body retracts inwards into the fixed upper hard ring, further drawing residual liquid into the container. These three features work together to significantly reduce residual liquid at the connection, preventing lumps that could affect sealing and operation, resulting in significantly lower residual liquid compared to traditional structures.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0034] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cosmetic container that facilitates scraping, resolving issues such as insufficient scraping force, damage to the brush, and clogging caused by residual cream. While this embodiment is described using a mascara container as an example, it is not limited to this application and can also be applied to other cosmetic containers that rely on a dipping stick, such as lip gloss and eyeshadow.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a cosmetic container for easy scraping, comprising a container 1 and a dipping stick 2. The container 1 contains a creamy or liquid cosmetic (such as mascara or lip gloss), and a scraper ring 3 is mounted at the top opening. The dipping stick 2 generally comprises an elongated shaft with a dipping head 21 at one end. The other end is connected to a container cap 22 (i.e., a handle). During use, the dipping stick 2 is inserted into and removed from the container 1 through the container cap 22.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the scraper ring 3 consists of a fixed upper hard ring 4 and a scraper lower soft ring 5. The fixed upper hard ring 4 is preferably made of hard plastic, which has a certain degree of rigidity and shape stability; the scraper lower soft ring 5 is preferably made of a soft elastic material (such as silicone, rubber, or elastic plastic) with good elastic deformation ability.

[0037] Furthermore, the fixed upper hard ring 4 includes a hard ring body 41 and a first flange 42. The hard ring body 41 is an annular sleeve, and the outer wall size thereof is adapted to the inner wall of the opening of the container 1. The inner wall of the hard ring body 41 is provided with a plurality of support ribs 43 extending in the axial direction, and the support ribs 43 are evenly distributed along the circumference. When the fixed upper hard ring 4 is pressed into the container opening, the support ribs 43 make the hard ring body 41 close to the inner wall of the container, thereby firmly supporting the hard ring body 41 at the container opening and maintaining its roundness, preventing the hard ring body 41 from being deformed or loosened due to stress. The upper end of the hard ring body 41 extends outward to form a first flange 42, which is in the shape of an annular flange, and its outer diameter is larger than the diameter of the container opening. When the fixed upper hard ring 4 is completely installed into the container opening, the lower surface of the first protrusion 42 abuts against the end face of the container opening, thereby positioning and pressing the fixed upper hard ring 4 in the axial direction, so that it cannot move further downward. At the same time, the cooperation between the first protrusion 42 and the end face of the container also improves the sealing of the container opening, reducing the entry of air and causing the paste to dry up.

[0038] Further, if Figure 3As shown, the first flange 42 is also provided with a second flange 44. The second flange 44 is a thin, annular wall extending outward from the inner edge of the first flange 42 and perpendicular to the first flange 42. The inner diameter of the second flange 44 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the handle of the dip stick 2 (inside the container lid 22). This allows the second flange 44 to partially insert into a groove (not numbered) inside the container lid 22 when the dip stick 2 is inserted into the container and closed. This radial positioning and guidance of the dip stick 2 ensures that the dip stick 2 is coaxially aligned with the scraper ring 3 each time it is inserted, preventing the dip stick 2 from wobbling or deflecting within the container and improving the uniformity and consistency of scraping. Furthermore, the tight fit between the second flange 44 and the groove further enhances the container's sealing performance, preventing the paste from overflowing or air from entering.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the lower end (the end away from the first protrusion 42) of the hard ring body 41 is provided with a connection area 45 for fixing the scraper lower soft ring 5. Figure 4 As shown, the scraper lower soft ring 5 includes a connecting portion 51 and a scraping portion 52. The connecting portion 51 is also an annular sleeve, and its inner diameter is adapted to the outer diameter of the connecting area 45 of the hard ring body 41. During assembly, the connecting portion 51 is tightly sleeved on the connecting area 45, thereby fixing the scraper lower soft ring 5 below the fixed upper hard ring 4. The fixing method can be injection molding, gluing, etc., which is not limited in this application. The scraping portion 52 is integrally formed with the connecting portion 51 and extends downward from the lower end of the connecting portion 51. The scraping portion 52 is a truncated cone-shaped thin-walled structure, and its diameter gradually decreases from top to bottom, forming a tapered shape that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The diameter of the lowermost opening 53 of the scraper portion 52 is significantly smaller than the inner diameter of the hard ring body 41 of the fixed upper hard ring 4, so that an interference fit can be formed when the dipping rod is inserted. The connecting portion 51 and the scraping portion 52 are connected by a smooth arc 54 to avoid right angles or sharp angles and reduce the residual accumulation of the paste at the transition point.

[0040] See Figure 2 The outer surface of the scraper portion 52 is also provided with a plurality of linear guide grooves 55. The guide grooves 55 extend axially (vertically) along the scraper portion 52 and are evenly distributed circumferentially. The guide grooves 55 have an arc-shaped cross-section, with both the bottom and walls transitioning to a circular arc and lacking sharp edges. This structure allows the scraped paste to flow smoothly downward along the guide grooves 55 to the bottom of the container without accumulating on the surface of the scraper portion 52. Furthermore, the arc-shaped transition prevents the paste from solidifying and agglomerating within the grooves, ensuring the long-term effectiveness of the guide grooves 55.

[0041] See Figure 2The inner surface of the scraper portion 52 (the side facing the dip stick head) is provided with a plurality of micro soft bumps 56. The bumps are hemispherical protrusions, the height of which needs to exceed the support ribs 43 by about 0.1 to 0.3 mm, and are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the scraper portion 52. Moreover, these bumps are arranged according to the trajectory of the spiral line, that is, a spiral distribution similar to a thread is formed on the inner wall of the scraper portion 52. When the dip stick head 21 passes through the connecting portion 51, these bumps can fully contact the bristles, and use their elastic deformation to fill the gaps between the bristles, thereby more thoroughly scraping off the paste attached to the bristles. The spirally distributed bumps can also produce a progressive scraping effect when the dip stick is rotated and pulled out, further improving the scraping efficiency.

[0042] In order to facilitate the user to disassemble the scraper ring 3 for cleaning or replacement, one or more prying openings 46 can be provided on the first ridge 42 of the fixed hard ring 4. Figure 5 As shown, the prying notch 46 is a small indentation formed radially inwardly at the edge of the first lip 42. To remove the scraper ring 3, the user can insert a fingernail or a small tool into the prying notch 46 and pry upward, thereby removing the fixed upper hard ring 4 and the scraper lower soft ring 5 from the container opening. The provision of the prying notch 46 solves the problem of conventional scraper rings being difficult to remove due to an interference fit, thereby improving the product's maintainability.

[0043] When it is necessary to dip the cosmetics, open the container cover 22, insert the dipping stick 2 into the container 1, and immerse the dipping head 21 in the cream. Then pull the dipping stick 2 upward to withdraw it from the container. During the extraction of the dipping stick 2, the dipping head 21 first passes through the opening 53 of the scraper lower soft ring 5. Since the diameter of the opening 53 is smaller than the maximum diameter of the dipping head 21, the thin wall of the scraper portion 52 will be stretched open by the dipping head 21, producing elastic deformation, thereby fitting tightly with the dipping hair and scraping off excess cream attached to the dipping hair. As the dipping stick 2 is further lifted, the scraper portion 52 gradually turns inward under the action of friction, and its lower part is pulled into the hard ring body 41 of the fixed upper hard ring 4 (as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown). At this time, the outer surface of the scraper portion 52 is in turn pressed against the brush head 21 for a second scraping, further scraping off any cream that may remain at the roots or gaps of the brush. Since the scraper portion 52 is soft and deformable, the entire scraping process is very gentle on the brush and will not cause pulling or damage. At the same time, most of the scraped cream will flow back into the container along the outer wall of the scraper portion 52 and the guide groove 55, and only an appropriate amount of cream will be evenly attached to the brush for use. When the dipping rod 2 is completely pulled out, the scraper lower soft ring 5 loses the external force and returns to its original shape under the action of its own elasticity, drooping again and extending into the container, waiting for the next use.

[0044] The above disclosure is merely one or more preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of the present application. A person skilled in the art will understand that all or part of the processes of the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of the present application are still within the scope of the present application.
