Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a content container. [Background technology]

[0002] Among cosmetics, color cosmetics such as eye shadow, shading, blush (cheek blush), and foundation are provided in compact containers that include an inner container for storing the cosmetics and an outer container for fixing the inner container. In such compact containers, the inner container and the outer container are either integrated and inseparable, or tightly bonded to each other with an adhesive or the like, making it difficult to separate the inner container and the outer container, and there is a problem that it is difficult to refill only the inner container and reuse the outer container after the cosmetics have been used up.

[0003] In addition, in some cases, the outer container and the inner container of such compact containers are made of different materials, and in this case, the outer container and the inner container must be separated from each other in the process of disposing of the compact container. However, with conventional containers, it was not possible to separate the outer container and the inner container, and even if it was possible to separate them, the separation was troublesome because the remaining cosmetic product would get on the hands or damage the nails, etc. in the process.

[0004] On the other hand, compact containers are generally configured to include a container part for storing the contents and a lid part for opening and closing the container part. In such compact containers, the lid part is rotatably connected to one side of the container part, and a number of metal hinge pins are used for rotating the lid part, but it is difficult to separate only the hinge pins from the compact container made of synthetic resin material, which makes it difficult to recycle the compact container. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and has an object to provide a content container in which a first container part containing contents can be fixed to a second container part or easily separated from the second container part by a simple rotation operation of a locking part.

[0006] The technical problems of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other technical problems not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the following description. [Means for solving the problem]

[0014] According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a content container, the content container including a first container part for storing content therein, a second container part that encloses the outside of the first container part and has a coupling part on an upper side for fixing the first container part, and a lock part that encloses the outside of the coupling part and is rotatably coupled to the coupling part, the coupling part may include a pressing part that bends inwardly to the coupling part when the lock part rotates in a first direction relative to the coupling part and presses an outer surface of the first container part to fix it.

[0015] Furthermore, when the locking portion rotates in a second direction opposite to the first direction relative to the connecting portion, the position of the pressing portion is restored, the pressing portion is released from the pressing portion against the first container portion, and the first container portion can be separated from the connecting portion.

[0016] In addition, the locking portion includes a guide portion that protrudes from an inner surface of the locking portion and has an inclined surface formed horizontally in one area, and when the locking portion rotates in the first direction, the pressing portion can be bent inwardly of the coupling portion by being in close contact with the inclined surface and moving relative to the locking portion.

[0017] The pressing portion may be provided on an upper end of the coupling portion and extend a predetermined length in the second direction.

[0019] Furthermore, when the guide portion of the locking portion is inserted into the space between the first coupling portion and the second coupling portion, the inclined surface can be aligned to a position corresponding to the pressing portion.

[0020] In addition, at least one guide protrusion is protruded from an inner surface of the locking portion, and at least one guide groove corresponding to the guide protrusion is recessed into an outer surface of the connecting portion, so that when the locking portion rotates, the guide protrusion moves along the guide groove, thereby allowing the locking portion to rotate at a constant height.

[0021] The guide groove may extend in a circumferential direction from a location on the outer surface of the coupling portion to a location on the outer surface of the pressing portion.

[0022] In addition, a first locking step is formed at the lower end of the coupling portion, and a second locking step is formed on the guide portion below the inclined surface, and when the locking portion rotates in the first direction, the second locking step moves below the pressing portion and abuts against the end of the first locking step, thereby restricting further rotation of the locking portion.

[0023] In addition, a locking protrusion is formed on an inner surface of the locking portion at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the guide portion, and a locking groove corresponding to the locking protrusion is formed on an outer surface of the first locking step, and the locking protrusion is inserted into the locking groove to prevent any rotation of the locking portion.

[0024] The container may further include a cover that is detachably coupled to one side of the second container and rotates relative to the second container to open and close the second container.

[0025] In addition, the second container part includes a first hinge part recessed on one side, and the lid part includes a second hinge part protruding on one side to be inserted into the first hinge part, and the second hinge part is inserted into the inside of the first hinge part, so that the lid part can be detachably coupled to the second container part.

[0026] Further, the first hinge portion includes a notch portion recessed into the inside of the second container portion and at least one hinge protrusion protruding into the inside of the notch portion, and the second hinge portion includes a protrusion portion protruding downward from the lid portion and a hinge groove recessed into the inside of the protrusion portion to correspond to the hinge protrusion, and when the second hinge portion is inserted into the first hinge portion, the hinge protrusion is fitted into the hinge groove and the lid portion can rotate around the hinge protrusion relative to the second container portion.

[0027] Furthermore, the lid portion may be formed at least partially from a transparent or translucent material so that the contents can be seen through. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0032] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a content container according to an embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the content container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 3 is an exploded perspective view of a second container part and a lid part according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, Fig. 1(a) is a view showing the content container in a closed state, and Fig. 1(b) is a view showing the content container in an open state.

[0033] 1-3, a content container 1000 may include a first container portion 100, a second container portion 200, a lock portion 300, and / or a lid portion 400.

[0034] The first container portion 100 can accommodate contents therein. Here, the contents may be solid, semi-solid, powder, liquid, or gel-like cosmetics. For example, the contents may include makeup base, blush, shading, eye shadow, eyebrow, lotion, milk lotion, moisture lotion, nourishing lotion, skin lotion, skin softener, skin toner, astringent, massage cream, nourishing cream, moisture cream, whitening essence, tone-up cream, sunscreen, sunscreen cream, sunscreen milk, BB cream, foundation, CC cream, concealer, eye cream, primer, etc. However, the contents are not limited to these, and other dosage forms, other types of cosmetics, medical contents, etc. may be applied.

[0035] For example, the first container 100 may have a bottom surface portion of a circular, elliptical, polygonal, etc. shape, a side surface portion extending upward from the bottom surface portion, and an opening at the top portion to form a space capable of accommodating contents therein. More specifically, the first container 100 may have various shapes, such as a cylinder, a cone, a truncated cone, a hemisphere, a polygonal prism, a polygonal pyramid, a polygonal pyramid, etc., with an open top. Here, the polygonal prism, the polygonal pyramid, and the polygonal pyramid may include shapes formed not only by plane surfaces, but also by curved surfaces having a predetermined curvature.

[0036] Also, for example, at least a part of the first container part 100 may be made of a metal material such as aluminum, copper, titanium, magnesium, iron, etc. However, the material of the first container part 100 is not limited to a metal material, and the first container part 100 may be made of various materials such as synthetic resin materials such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and natural materials such as cloth, paper, fiber, Tencel, and silk.

[0037] The second container part 200 has a connecting part 210 provided on the upper side, so that the first container part 100 can be fixed. The connecting part 210 can fix the first container part 100 while wrapping the outside of the first container part 100.

[0038] In an embodiment, the coupling portion 210 may include a pressing portion 211 , a vertical groove 212 , a guide groove 213 , a first locking step 214 and / or a locking groove 215 .

[0039] The pressing part 211 can fix the first container part 100 to the second container part 200 or separate the first container part 100 from the second container part 200 based on the rotational movement of the lock part 300.

[0040] For example, when the locking portion 300 rotates in a first direction (e.g., clockwise) relative to the coupling portion 210, the pressing portion 211 can bend inwardly of the coupling portion 210 and press the outer surface of the first container portion 100, thereby fixing the first container portion 100 to the second container portion 200. In FIG. 2, the first direction is illustrated as being clockwise, but is not limited thereto, and the first direction may be illustrated as being counterclockwise.

[0041] Furthermore, for example, when the locking part 300 rotates in a second direction (e.g., counterclockwise) opposite to the first direction with respect to the coupling part 210 while the pressing part 211 is pressing the first container part 100, the position of the pressing part 211 that was bent inwardly of the coupling part 210 may be restored. This releases the pressing of the pressing part 211 against the first container part 100, and the first container part 100 may be separated from the coupling part 210. When the user has used up the contents contained in the first container part 100, the first container part 100 can be easily removed from the coupling part 210 by rotating the locking part 300, and the first container part 100 can be replaced with a first container part containing new contents. Furthermore, if the first container part 100 and the second container part 200 are made of different materials (for example, if the first container part 100 is made of aluminum and the second container part 200 is made of plastic), the first container part 100 can be easily separated and discharged from the second container part 200.

[0042] In the embodiment, at least a part of the pressing portion 211 may be made of an elastic material so as to bend or restore its position toward the inside of the coupling portion 210 in response to the rotation direction of the locking portion 300. However, the present invention is not limited to this.

[0043] In the embodiment, the pressing portion 211 may be provided at an upper end of the coupling portion 210 (specifically, at an upper end of one side surface of the coupling portion 210) to extend a predetermined length in the second direction. When the locking portion 300 rotates in the first direction, the pressing portion 211 provided at an extended predetermined length can be easily bent toward the inside of the coupling portion 210 by receiving a pressing force while being in close contact with the locking portion 300 (particularly the inclined surface 311) over a wide area.

[0044] The vertical grooves 212 may be multiple and may become centers of elastic deformation of the pressing portion 211 when the locking portion 300 rotates. For example, multiple vertical grooves 212 may be formed spaced apart along the inner surface of the pressing portion 211. The vertical grooves 212 make it easier for the pressing portion 211 to elastically deform, and thus the pressing portion 211 can be more closely attached to the outer surface of the first container portion 100 to fix the first container portion 100.

[0045] Furthermore, even if the size of the first container part 100 changes within a certain range, the pressing part 211 can be elastically deformed via the vertical groove 212 to fit the size of the first container part 100. That is, regardless of the size of the first container part 100, the pressing part 211 can be in close contact with the outer surface of the first container part 100 to press and fix the first container part 100.

[0046] The guide groove 213 may be recessed into an outer surface of the coupling part 210. The guide protrusion 320 of the locking part 300 may be inserted into the guide groove 213, and when the locking part 300 rotates relative to the second container part 200, the guide protrusion 320 may move along the guide groove 213. That is, when the locking part 300 rotates, a constant rotation height of the locking part 300 may be maintained by the guide groove 213 and the guide protrusion 320.

[0047] In an embodiment, the guide groove 213 may extend in the circumferential direction from a location on the outer surface of the coupling portion 210 to a location on the outer surface of the pressing portion 211. By extending the guide groove 213 to the outer surface of the pressing portion 211, the user can more reliably rotate the lock portion 300 in the first direction or the second direction to couple or separate the first container portion.

[0048] The first locking step 214 is formed at the lower end of the coupling part 210, and can prevent further rotation of the lock part 300 in the first direction by abutting against the second locking step 312 of the lock part 300 rotating in the first direction. For example, the pressing part 211 may be provided at the upper end of one side of the coupling part 210, extending in the second direction, and the first locking step 214 may be provided to protrude by a predetermined length in the second direction from the lower end of one side of the coupling part 210 on which the pressing part 211 is formed (i.e., below the pressing part 211).

[0049] The locking groove 215 is formed on the outer surface of the coupling part 210, and the locking protrusion 330 of the locking part 300 is inserted into the locking groove 215 to prevent arbitrary rotation of the locking part 300. For example, the locking groove 215 is formed on the outer side of the first locking step 214, whereby the first locking step 214 can prevent the locking part 300 from further rotating in the first direction, while the locking groove 215 can prevent the locking part 300 from rotating in the first direction and arbitrary rotation in the second direction.

[0050] In the embodiment, the coupling part 210 may be configured in a plurality of parts so as to enclose different regions of the outer surface of the first container part 100. For example, the coupling part 210 may include a first coupling part 210-1 and a second coupling part 210-2. The first coupling part 210-1 and the second coupling part 210-2 may be arranged apart from each other so as to enclose different regions of the first container part 100. In this case, a pressing part 211 is provided at the upper end of one side of the first coupling part 210-1 and the second coupling part 210-2, respectively, extending in the second direction, and each pressing part 211 may press different regions of the outer surface of the first container part 100 to fix the first container part 100. In this way, the first container part 100 may be fixed in closer contact with the coupling part 210 since a plurality of regions (particularly, outer surfaces located in opposite directions) are pressed and fixed. In Figures 2 and 3, the coupling portion 210 is shown as being composed of two parts, but this is not limited to this, and various modifications can be made to the coupling portion 210, such as being composed of three or more parts, depending on the embodiment.

[0051] The second container part 200 may include a first hinge part 220 recessed on one side. The cover part 400 (particularly, the second hinge part 410) is inserted into the first hinge part 220, so that the second container part 200 and the cover part 400 can be detachably coupled to each other.

[0052] In the embodiment, the first hinge portion 220 may include a notch portion 221 and at least one hinge protrusion 222. The notch portion 221 is recessed on the inside of the second container portion 200, thereby allowing the protrusion portion 411 of the lid portion 400 to be inserted into the inside of the notch portion 221. Also, the hinge protrusion 222 may protrude from the inside of the notch portion 221 and be inserted into the inside of the hinge groove 412 of the lid portion 400. For example, there may be a plurality of hinge protrusions 222, and each of the hinge protrusions 222 may protrude inward from the opposing inner surfaces of the notch portion 221.

[0053] In an embodiment, the second container portion 200 may be made of a recyclable material. The second container portion 200 is environmentally friendly because it is made of a reusable material without post-processing. For example, the second container portion 200 may be made of a material such as, but not limited to, polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and the like.

[0054] The locking part 300 can rotate relative to the coupling part 210 to fix the first container part 100 to the coupling part 210 or separate it from the coupling part 210. For this purpose, the locking part 300 can wrap around the outside of the coupling part 210 and be rotatably coupled to the coupling part 210.

[0055] In an embodiment, the locking portion 300 may include a guide portion 310 , a guide protrusion 320 and / or a locking protrusion 330 .

[0056] The guide portion 310 protrudes from the inner surface of the lock portion 300 and enables the pressing portion 211 to bend inwardly of the coupling portion 210 when the lock portion 300 rotates.

[0057] For this purpose, a horizontally inclined surface 311 may be formed in one region of the guide part 310. For example, the inclined surface 311 may be formed such that the height of the protrusion increases in the second direction. As a result, when the lock part 300 rotates in the first direction, the pressing part 211 moves relative to the lock part 300 while being in close contact with the inclined surface 311, and thus can be bent inwardly of the coupling part 210.

[0058] In the embodiment, when the coupling part 210 includes the first coupling part 210-1 and the second coupling part 210-2, the guide part 310 of the lock part 300 may be aligned and inserted into the space between the first coupling part 210-1 and the second coupling part 210-2. That is, in order to couple the lock part 300, the user may first align the guide part 310 of the lock part 300 so that it is positioned above the space between the first coupling part 210-1 and the second coupling part 210-2, and then move the lock part 300 downward to insert the guide part 310 into the space. Therefore, in a state in which the inclined surface 311 is aligned at a position and height corresponding to the pressing part 211 and the guide protrusion 320 is aligned at a position corresponding to the guide groove 213, the second container part 200 and the lock part 300 may be coupled together with the rotation of the lock part 300.

[0059] In the embodiment, the guide part 310 may have a second locking step 312 formed on the lower side of the inclined surface 311. The second locking step 312 may abut against an end of the first locking step 214 of the coupling part 210, thereby restricting the movement of the lock part 300 rotating in the first direction. Specifically, when the lock part 300 rotates in the first direction, the second locking step 312 may move below the pressing part 211 and abut against an end of the first locking step 214, thereby restricting further rotation of the lock part 300 in the first direction. For this purpose, for example, the pressing part 211 may be provided at the upper end of one side of the coupling part 210 to extend in the second direction, the first locking step 214 may be provided at the lower end to protrude, and the second locking step 312 may be provided to extend in the first direction.

[0060] The guide protrusion 320 protrudes from the inner surface of the locking part 300 and can be inserted into the guide groove 213 of the coupling part 210 and move along the guide groove 213 when the locking part 300 rotates. For example, the guide protrusion 320 may be extended a predetermined length in the horizontal direction (or the rotation direction of the locking part 300). While the locking part 300 rotates in the first direction, the pressing part 211 bends inwardly of the coupling part 210 and generates an external force (i.e., an elastic restoring force of the pressing part 211), but the locking part 300 can rotate at a certain height without coming off the coupling part 210 despite the external force.

[0061] The locking protrusion 330 is inserted into the locking groove 215 of the coupling part 210 to prevent the locking part 300 from rotating arbitrarily. When an external force of a certain level or more acts on the locking part 300 in the second direction with the locking protrusion 330 inserted into the locking groove 215, the locking protrusion 330 is disengaged from the locking groove 215 and the locking part 300 can rotate in the second direction. For example, the locking protrusion 330 may be formed on an inner surface of the locking part 300 at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the guide part 310, and the locking groove 215 may be formed on an outer surface of the first locking step 214 corresponding to the locking protrusion 330. In this case, when the locking part 300 rotates in the first direction and the second locking step 312 abuts against an end of the first locking step 214, the locking protrusion 330 may be inserted into the locking groove 215.

[0062] The lid 400 is detachably coupled to one side of the second container 200 and can rotate relative to the second container 200 to open and close the second container 200. To this end, a second hinge 410 protruding to correspond to the first hinge 220 of the second container 200 may be provided on one side of the lid 400. That is, the second hinge 410 is inserted into the inside of the first hinge 220, so that the lid 400 can be detachably coupled to the second container 200. This makes it possible to easily fit the second container 200 and the lid 400 together without the need for a hinge pin that has been conventionally used to rotatably couple a container and a lid.

[0063] In the embodiment, the second hinge portion 410 may include a protrusion 411 protruding downward from the lid portion 400, and at least one hinge groove 412 recessed into the inside of the protrusion 411. For example, when the multiple hinge protrusions 222 are respectively protruding inward from opposing inner surfaces of the notch portion 221, the corresponding multiple hinge grooves 412 may be recessed inward from both side surfaces of the protrusion 411. When the second hinge portion 410 is inserted into the inside of the first hinge portion 220, the hinge protrusion 222 can be fitted into the hinge groove 412, thereby allowing the lid portion 400 to rotate about the hinge protrusion 222 relative to the second container portion 200.

[0064] In the embodiment, an opening 413 may be formed below the hinge groove 412. The opening 413 may be provided such that at least a portion of the opening area of ​​the hinge groove 412 extends downward to form a path into which the hinge protrusion 222 is inserted when the second hinge unit 410 is coupled to the first hinge unit 220. That is, when the second container unit 200 and the lid unit 400 are coupled such that the second hinge unit 410 is inserted into the inside of the first hinge unit 220, the hinge protrusion 222 can be easily inserted into the inside of the hinge groove 412 through the opening 413. In addition, for example, the opening 413 may be formed such that the width of the opening 413 increases toward the lower side. This makes it easier for the hinge protrusion 222 to be inserted into the hinge groove 412, but prevents it from coming off the hinge groove 412 once it is inserted.

[0065] In an embodiment, the lid portion 400 may be at least partially formed of a transparent or translucent material. This allows the contents contained in the first container portion 100 to be seen through from the outside of the content container 1000, so that the user can easily check the type, color, remaining amount, etc. of the contents. For example, the lid portion 400 may be at least partially formed of a material such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), etc., and may be formed of the same material as the second container portion 200. However, this is not limited thereto, and the second container portion 200 and the lid portion 400 may be made of different materials.

[0066] The content container 1000 in FIGS. 1 to 3 is merely exemplary, and various configurations can be adopted depending on the embodiment to which the present invention is applied.

[0067] 4 to 6 are diagrams for explaining the operation of the content container according to the embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are perspective and plan views of the content container 1000 in a state in which the first container part 100 is omitted, Fig. 4(a) and Fig. 5(a) are diagrams in a state in which the pressing part 211 is released from the first container part 100, and Fig. 4(b) and Fig. 5(b) are diagrams in a state in which the pressing part 211 presses and fixes the first container part 100. Fig. 6(a) is a diagram showing a state in which the pressing part 211 presses the first container part 100, and Fig. 6(b) is a diagram showing a state in which the first container part 100 is separated from the second container part 200.

[0068] 4 and 5, when the locking part 300 rotates in the first direction relative to the coupling part 210, the pressing part 211 moves relative to the locking part 300 and comes into close contact with the inclined surface 311 of the guide part 310, thereby being able to bend inwardly of the coupling part 210. As a result, the pressing part 211 can fix the first container part 100 to the second container part 200 by pressing the outer surface of the first container part 100.

[0069] Meanwhile, when the second locking step 312 of the locking part 300 moves in the first direction below the pressing part 211 and abuts against the end of the first locking step 214, it can restrict further rotation of the locking part 300 in the first direction. At this time, the locking protrusion 330 of the locking part 300 is inserted into the locking groove 215 of the coupling part 210, so that arbitrary rotation of the locking part 300 in the first and second directions can be prevented.

[0070] 6, when the locking part 300 rotates in the second direction while the pressing part 211 is pressing the first container part 100, the position of the pressing part 211 that was bent inwardly of the coupling part 210 can be restored. This releases the pressing part 211 from pressing the first container part 100, and the first container part 100 can be separated from the coupling part 210.

[0071] The operations of the content container 1000 in FIGS. 4 to 6 are merely illustrative, and various operational modes may be adopted depending on the embodiment to which the present invention is applied.

[0072] As described above, the best mode for carrying out the present invention has been disclosed in the drawings and the specification. Although specific terms are used herein, they are merely used for the purpose of describing the present invention, and are not used to limit the meaning or the scope of the present invention described in the claims.
