Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cosmetic packaging, and in particular to a cosmetic packaging tube. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards continue to improve, lipstick has become increasingly important in daily life, becoming an essential item in women's cosmetics. Consumers' demands for lipstick are no longer limited to color and texture; the fun and uniqueness of the packaging are also gradually becoming important factors in purchasing decisions.

[0003] However, most lipstick tubes on the market have traditional opening and closing mechanisms such as cap opening and press-type, which not only have relatively simple usage methods and lack innovation, but also fail to meet consumers' pursuit of personalized and differentiated experiences. Therefore, further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a cosmetic packaging tube.

[0005] Cosmetic packaging tubes, including:

[0006] A tube body having a first end and a second end opposite to each other, wherein the first end is open.

[0007] The cover is axially movable inside the tube body;

[0008] A support component for holding cosmetics, the support component and the cover are engaged to enclose the cosmetics in an internal space, the support component having a stored state that is restrained and hidden by the tube;

[0009] A driving member is rotatable relative to the tube body and has an operating part exposed outside the tube body. The driving member is linked to the cover body and drives the cover body and the supporting assembly to move synchronously in the retracted state, so that the supporting assembly is freed from the constraint of the tube body.

[0010] Several alternative methods are provided below, but they are not intended as additional limitations on the overall solution above. They are merely further additions or optimizations. Provided there are no technical or logical contradictions, each alternative method can be combined individually with respect to the overall solution above, or multiple alternative methods can be combined with each other.

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0039] In this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number or order of the indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0040] In this application, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a system, product, or device that includes a series of units is not necessarily limited to those units that are explicitly listed, but may include other units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such products or devices.

[0041] See Figures 1-6 One embodiment of this application provides a cosmetic packaging tube, including a tube body 100, a cap 500, a carrier component 200, and a drive component 300.

[0042] The tube body 100 has a first end 110 and a second end 120, which are open and closed respectively. For ease of explanation, the specific positions of the first end 110 and the second end 120 will be described below as follows: Figure 1 The orientation is taken as the standard, that is, the first end 110 is at the bottom and the second end 120 is at the top.

[0043] The cover 500 is axially movable inside the tube 100. The support component 200 is used to hold cosmetics, which refers to lipsticks, lip balms, and other cream-like cosmetics. The support component 200 and the cover 500 are joined to enclose the cosmetics in the internal space. The support component 200 has a storage state that is bound and hidden by the tube 100.

[0044] The support assembly 200 includes a central core 210 and a base 220 that are fixedly connected. The central core 210 can adopt an existing structure, such as including a storage element for holding cosmetics, a drive element with a threaded inner wall and a guide element rotatably connected to the drive element. The storage element cooperates with the threaded part, and the guide element restricts the rotation of the storage element. During the relative rotation of the drive element and the guide element, the drive element drives the storage element to move axially.

[0045] The drive unit 300 can rotate relative to the tube body 100. Regarding the direction of rotation, please refer to... Figure 1 The X-axis is perpendicular to the tube body 100, and the drive unit 300 can rotate around the X-axis.

[0046] To facilitate operation, the drive unit 300 has an operating part 310 exposed outside the tube body 100. The drive unit 300 is linked to the cover 500 and drives the cover 500 and the support component 200 to move synchronously in the retracted state, so that the support component 200 is freed from the constraint of the tube body 100.

[0047] The cosmetic packaging tube of this application is equipped with a rotating drive component that is linked to the cap. When in use, simply rotating the drive component will release the supporting component 200 from the tube. Compared with the prior art, this provides a new way of opening the tube, which is more fun to play with and can bring consumers a new user experience.

[0048] In one embodiment, after the support component 200 is released from the tube body 100, its bottom end protrudes from the tube body 100 from the first end 110. The user can hold the bottom end of the support component 200 and pull it out for subsequent use of cosmetics.

[0049] See Figures 1-4 To ensure smooth linkage between the drive component 300 and the load-bearing component 200, the packaging tube also includes a transmission component 400 disposed between the load-bearing component 200 and the drive component 300. The transmission component 400 can take various forms, such as a screw mechanism or a worm gear mechanism, which can be selected according to requirements. In the illustration, the transmission component 400 uses a rack and pinion mechanism.

[0050] In one embodiment, the drive unit 300 has a gear 410 and the cover 500 has a rack 420.

[0051] In one embodiment, the drive member 300 is located near the second end 120 (top), and correspondingly, the tube body 100 has a corresponding clearance hole 140 on its side wall at this location, so that the output shaft 320 of the drive member 300 can extend into the tube body 100.

[0052] See Figures 1-4 Gear 410 is located on output shaft 320. To ensure gear 410 operates in a predetermined position, a mounting base 150 is provided inside tube body 100. Gear 410 is mounted between mounting base 150 and second end 120. Specifically, a groove 101 is provided on the inner wall of tube body 100, and mounting base 150 has a retaining ring 153. When groove 101 and retaining ring 153 engage, axial positioning is achieved. To allow gear 410 to rotate normally, a pair of brackets 151 adapted to the shape of output shaft are provided on the top of mounting base 150. Gear 410 is located between the two brackets 151 to prevent gear 410 from sliding out of clearance hole 140. To prevent gear 410 from shifting during rotation, several protrusions 102 are arranged on second end 120. The protrusions 102 and brackets 151 cooperate to rotatably clamp output shaft 320 between them.

[0053] Since the axis of gear 410 is arranged perpendicular to the axis of tube 100, the rack 420 is arranged vertically accordingly. The cover 500 is located below the mounting base 150. Therefore, in order to enable the rack 420 to cooperate with the gear 410, the mounting base 150 is provided with an opening 152 for the rack 420 to pass through. The part of the rack 420 that slides at the opening 152 is not equipped with locking teeth to make it smooth to the touch.

[0054] In one embodiment, the rotation angle of the drive member 300 can be set as needed, for example, it can be set to 3 degrees, 5 degrees, 10 degrees, etc.

[0055] When the drive unit 300 rotates, it can drive the rack 420 to move up and down. However, when the rotation angle of the drive unit 300 is small, the rack 420 can only move down a limited distance. After the bearing assembly 200 is freed from the constraint of the tube 100, the portion exposed from the first end 110 is relatively small, which is not conducive to the user holding and pulling it out.

[0056] To solve the above problems, the cover 500 of this application is provided with a connector 600 that can move axially and engage with the bearing component 200. After the bearing component 200 is freed from the restraint of the tube 100, under the action of gravity, the bearing component 200 drives the connector 600 to move together in the direction of the first end 110.

[0057] Regarding card-binding methods, please refer to, for example... Figure 5 The inner wall of the connector 600 is provided with positioning ribs 620 extending along the axial direction. There are multiple positioning ribs 620, which are evenly arranged in the circumferential direction, making it more stable after engaging with the bearing component 200 and preventing it from easily disengaging.

[0058] See Figure 4 The cover 500 is provided with a sliding groove 510 extending along the axial direction, and the connector 600 has a protruding foot 610 extending into the sliding groove 510. In the figure, there are two sliding grooves 510, which are arranged opposite to each other.

[0059] In one embodiment, one groove 510 extends to the bottom of the cover 500 to facilitate assembly, and another groove 510 can limit the downward sliding distance of the support component 200 and the connector 600 to prevent them from falling off the cover 500.

[0060] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the cover 500 is provided with a protrusion 520, which can reduce the gap between the cover 500 and the outer tube 100, ensuring that the two remain centered and concentric during sliding. At the same time, the protrusion 520 can reduce the contact area between the cover 500 and the outer tube 100, thereby effectively reducing friction.

[0061] In one embodiment, a blocking part 230 is provided at the bottom of the support component 200, and the tube body 100 is interference-fitted with the blocking part 230 to restrain the support component 200. When the blocking part 230 moves outside the tube body 100, the support component 200 is released from the restraint of the tube body 100.

[0062] In one embodiment, the blocking part 230 may be disposed on the outer periphery of the base 220, and the specific structure may be configured according to requirements, for example... Figure 1 In the middle, the blocking part 230 is a convex ring 231.

[0063] In order to cooperate with the blocking part 230, a connecting sleeve 130 that is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the tube body 100 is also arranged inside the tube body 100. See Figure 6 The connecting sleeve 130 has a cylindrical structure with several circumferentially arranged protrusions 131 on its inner wall. The protruding ring 231 engages with the protrusions 131 to keep the bearing component 200 inside the tube body 100 in the storage state.

[0064] In one embodiment, the connecting sleeve 130 is disposed at the first end 110, and its bottom is flush with the bottom of the tube body 100. The protrusion 131 is disposed near the bottom end, and correspondingly, the blocking part 230 is also near the bottom end of the base 220. This design can not only reduce the interference between the bearing component 200 and the connecting sleeve 130, but also limit the axial movement stroke of the cover 500. When the driving member 300 rotates, the cover 500 moves downward until it abuts against the top of the connecting sleeve 130, which is the limit of the movement stroke of the cover 500.

[0065] See Figures 2a-2c In practical use, rotating the operating part 310 causes the corresponding gear 410 to rotate, and the rack 420 drives the cover 500 and the supporting assembly 200 to move synchronously towards the first end 110. The supporting assembly 200 overcomes the resistance of the blocking part 230, allowing the bottom to protrude from the first end 110. Figure 2b Then, under the action of gravity, the bearing component 200 drives the connector 600 to move together in the direction of the first end 110 until the protrusion 131 slides to the bottom end of the groove 510 and abuts against it. Figure 2c Finally, opposite forces are applied to the tube body 100 and the support component 200, causing the support component 200 to separate from the positioning rib 620 of the connector 600, allowing the support component 200 to be extracted for use. After use, the support component 200 is inserted into the cover 500. Under the action of the pushing force, the cover 500 moves to the top, and the corresponding rack 420 drives the gear 410 to rotate until the blocking part 230 engages with the protrusion 131, thus completing the storage.

[0066] The technical features of the embodiments described above can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features of different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be regarded as the drawing also disclosing examples of combinations of the various embodiments involved.

[0067] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. 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 modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
