Detailed Implementation

[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described in this application are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such uses of the terms can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0036] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0037] Example 1: As Figure 1-9As shown, an applicator includes a first applicator head 100 and a brush rod 200. The first end of the brush rod 200 is fixedly provided with a connecting portion 210, and the second end of the brush rod 200 is fixedly provided with a second applicator head 220. The brush rod 200 is an integrally formed part. The second applicator head 220 is provided with a receiving cavity 221. The first applicator head 100 is installed in the receiving cavity 221 and is fixedly connected to the brush rod 200. The hardness of the first applicator head 100 is greater than the hardness of the second applicator head 220. In this application, the second applicator head 220 is directly formed on the brush handle 200, thereby reducing the number of parts in the applicator, lowering mold and assembly costs, and directly fixing the first applicator head 100 in the brush handle 200 without the need for additional dotting processes, simplifying the applicator assembly process; after hollowing out the interior of the second applicator head 220 to form a receiving cavity 221, the first applicator head 100 is installed in the receiving cavity 221. When applying makeup with the softer second applicator head 220, the first applicator head 100 supports the second applicator head 220, thereby improving the makeup application effect of the second applicator head 220; since the first applicator head 100 and the second applicator head 220 have different hardness, they can meet different makeup application needs of users, broadening the functionality of the applicator.

[0038] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first applicator head 100 includes a mounting portion 110 and an applicator portion 120 fixedly connected to the mounting portion 110. The mounting portion 110 is installed within the receiving cavity 221, and the applicator portion 120 has a first applicator surface 121. The first applicator surface 121 is exposed on the outer side of the brush handle 200 and is used for applicating materials. Optionally, the first applicator surface 121 includes a curved surface and / or a flat surface. Optionally, as... Figure 6-7 As shown, the applicator 120 is provided with a boss 122, and the second applicator 220 is provided with a groove 224. When the first applicator 100 is installed in the receiving cavity 221, the boss 122 is placed in the groove 224 to improve the installation strength of the first applicator 100.

[0039] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the mounting part 110 is provided with a buckle 111, and the brush handle 200 is provided with a slot 230. The slot 230 is connected to the receiving cavity 221. When the mounting part 110 is installed in the receiving cavity 221, the buckle 111 is engaged in the slot 230 to fix the first applicator head 100 to the brush handle 200. The first applicator head 100 is a one-piece molded part, which is divided into a mounting part 110 and an applicator part 120. The mounting part 110 is located inside the receiving cavity 221, and the mounting part 110 is directly engaged and fixed to the brush handle 200 by the buckle 111. Therefore, the assembly method is simple and the bonding strength is high. The first applicator surface 121 on the applicator part 120 is located on the outside of the brush handle 200 and is used for makeup. In order to meet different needs, the first applicator surface 121 can have different shapes, such as a flat surface, a curved surface, or both a flat surface and a curved surface; a flocked layer can also be formed on the first applicator surface 121.

[0040] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the applicator also includes an inner cover 300, which is fixedly connected to the joint 210. In this embodiment, the brush rod 200 and the inner cover 300 are separate structures.

[0041] like Figure 8-9 As shown, when the brush handle 200 and the inner cover 300 are separate structures, the inner cover 300 includes a top plate 320 and a cylindrical body 310 fixedly connected to the top plate 320. The inner sidewall of the cylindrical body 310 is provided with an internal thread 311. In this embodiment, the brush handle 200 and the inner cover 300 are two independent components. The inner cover 300 has a cylindrical structure that is closed at the top and open at the bottom. The inner cover 300 is connected to the connecting part 210, and the internal thread 311 of the cylindrical body 310 is used to connect to the bottle body 500. Optionally, the inner cover 300 and the connecting part 210 are fixedly connected by snap-fit, glue, or welding.

[0042] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 2-3 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner cover 300 is fitted onto the joint 210. The inner wall of the cylinder 310 has a groove 312, and the outer wall of the joint 210 has a protrusion 211, which is engaged in the groove 312. The inner cover 300 and the joint 210 are fixed together by the protrusion 211 and the groove 312, resulting in a high bonding strength. In this embodiment, the inner cover 300 and the brush rod 200 are formed independently, thus reducing the forming difficulty of both.

[0043] Optionally, the first applicator head 100 is made of a temperature-sensitive material, including metals, metal alloys, ceramics, glass, or stone, while the second applicator head 220 is made of plastic. Metal or metal alloy materials include steel, iron, aluminum, copper, zinc, aluminum alloys, copper alloys, etc., while plastic materials include polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymers, thermoplastic elastomers, etc. In this application, makeup is applied using the first applicator head 100 and the second applicator head 220. The temperature-sensitive material of the first applicator head 100 provides a cooling sensation, enlarging pores and facilitating the penetration of the product into the pores before it contracts, thus improving the skin's absorption of the product and the evenness of the product application.

[0044] like Figure 4-5 and Figure 7 As shown, the second applicator head 220 has a second applicator surface 222, and a flocked layer 223 is provided on the second applicator surface 222. Of course, the second applicator surface 222 can also be smooth. The flocked layer 223 on the second applicator surface 222 carries a larger amount of product and can quickly apply the product to the area to be made up. Then, the first applicator surface 121 on the first applicator head 100 is used to spread the product evenly, completing the makeup application process and improving efficiency. Different materials for the first applicator head 100 and the second applicator head 220 can achieve different makeup effects, and users can experience multiple tactile sensations during use.

[0045] Example 2: As Figure 10-13 As shown, the brush handle 200 and the inner cover 300 are integrally molded. When the brush handle 200 and the inner cover 300 are integrally molded, the inner cover 300 includes a cylindrical body 310, which is fixedly molded to the joint portion 210. The inner sidewall of the cylindrical body 310 is provided with an internal thread 311. In this embodiment, the inner cover 300 has a cylindrical structure with openings at both the upper and lower ends. The upper open end of the cylindrical body 310 is directly molded to the joint portion 210 of the brush handle 200. That is, the brush handle 200, the second applicator head 220, and the inner cover 300 are integrally molded, which further reduces the number of parts in the applicator and lowers the mold cost and assembly cost.

[0046] Example 3: As Figure 14-15As shown, a packaging container includes an applicator and an outer casing assembly. This embodiment uses the applicator from Embodiment 1. The outer casing assembly includes an outer cap 400 and a bottle body 500. An inner plug 510 is fixedly installed at the mouth of the bottle body 500. The outer cap 400 is fixedly fitted onto the inner cap 300, and the outer cap 400 covers the bottle body 500. A brush handle 200 is inserted into the bottle body 500, and the bottle body 500 is screwed to the inner cap 300. Optionally, the neck of the bottle body 500 is provided with an external thread 520, and the inner cap 300 and the bottle body 500 are screwed together and fixed by the internal thread 311 and the external thread 520. The bottle body 500 is used to store skin care products such as face cream, hand cream, and moisturizing cream; or cosmetic products such as mascara, eyelash serum, and eyebrow gel. The outer cover 400 and the inner cover 300 can be fixed together by means of snap-fit, glue bonding, ultrasonic welding, etc. The inner plug 510 is used to scrape off the excess material on the brush rod 200.

[0047] Example 4: Figure 16-17 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 3 is that this embodiment uses the applicator from embodiment 2.

[0048] The process of using the packaging container in this application includes the following steps: First, the user rotates the outer cap 400 to separate the inner cap 300 from the bottle body 500, and pulls out the outer cap 400. The inner plug 510 scrapes off the excess material on the brush handle 200. Then, the user quickly applies the material to the area to be made up using the flocked layer 223 on the second application surface 222. The user then uses the first application surface 121 on the first application head 100 to spread the material evenly, thus completing the makeup application process. Finally, the user inserts the brush handle 200 back into the bottle body 500 and tightens the outer cap 400.

[0049] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent application shall be determined by the appended claims.
