Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a storage container for storing stick-shaped cosmetics such as lipstick, lip balm, stick eye shadow, stick foundation, etc. [Background technology]

[0002] A conventional storage container for lipstick, etc., is composed of a hakama member, an inner tube member having an axial notch whose lower end is inserted and fixed into the hakama member, a spiral member having a spiral groove rotatably attached to the outer periphery of the inner tube member, an outer tube portion covering the outer periphery of the spiral member, a dish member supporting lipstick that moves up and down inside the inner tube member, an engagement pin formed on the dish member that engages with the notch of the inner tube member and the spiral groove of the spiral member, and a cap that detachably fits into the hakama member covering the outer periphery of the outer tube member.

[0003] However, in conventional storage containers for lipstick, etc., constructed in this manner, while it is easy to fill the container with lipstick if the upper end of the dish member protrudes upward from the upper end of the outer tube member, it is unsightly if the upper end of the dish member protrudes upward from the upper end of the upper tube member when in use, and is prone to consumer complaints such as injury from the protruding upper end of the dish member. Because conventional lipstick storage containers are constructed as described above, they have the disadvantage that they can only be set to either have the upper end of the dish member protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member, or not protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member.

[0004] As a remedy for this problem, the applicant has previously developed a headpiece member, an inner cylinder member whose lower end is inserted and fixed into the headpiece member, a notch formed in the inner cylinder member in the axial direction with an open upper portion, a plate member made of a metal material that can move under its own weight and directly supports lipstick or the like and has an engagement pin that engages with the notch and is attached to the inner cylinder member so as to be movable up and down, a spiral member attached to the outer periphery of the inner cylinder member so as to be rotatable, an outer cylinder member covering the outer periphery of the spiral member, and a top end of the outer cylinder member that engages with the engagement pin of the plate member formed on the spiral member, The inventors have devised a storage container for lipstick, etc., which comprises a spiral groove that guides the upper end of the dish member so that it does not protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member, a locking groove into which the engagement pin is inserted with the upper end of the dish member protruding upward from the upper end of the outer tube member, which is formed so as to open into the notch on the upper side of the inner tube member, and a guide groove that opens into the spiral groove, which allows the engagement pin to be inserted and positioned within the locking groove formed on the upper part of the spiral member, thereby allowing the upper end of the dish member to protrude upward from the upper end of the outer tube member, and have filed Utility Model Application No. 1-137150.

[0005] This Utility Model Application No. 1-137150 addresses the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, namely, when filling with lipstick etc., the upper end of the metal dish member can be made to protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member, and when in use, the upper end of the dish member does not protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member, making it easy to fill with lipstick etc. and safe and unsightly when in use. However, when rotating the outer tube member and the hakama to advance lipstick etc., if the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated particularly vigorously, the dish member can also rise with force, causing the dish member to move above the designated position, i.e., the engagement pin of the dish member can move to the position of the guide groove, causing the dish member to protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member. If that were to happen, it would no longer be safe and presentable for use. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] Application No. 1-137150 (Application No. 3-99513) Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] The problem to be solved is to provide a storage container for lipstick, etc., which allows the upper end of a metal dish member to protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member when filling it with lipstick, etc., but does not cause the upper end of the dish member to protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member when in use, making it easy to fill it with lipstick, etc., and which can be used safely and without looking unsightly when in use, but which does not move above the upper end of the outer tube member when the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated to dispense lipstick, etc., as the dish member also rises with force, especially when the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated with force, causing the dish member to move above a predetermined position and not protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The present invention comprises a hakama member, an inner tube member having a lower end inserted and fixed into the hakama member, a notch formed in the inner tube member in the axial direction with an open upper portion, a plate member made of metal for directly supporting lipstick or the like, the plate member having an engagement pin that engages with the notch and is attached to the inner tube member so as to be movable up and down, a spiral member rotatably attached to the outer periphery of the inner tube member, an outer tube member covering the outer periphery of the spiral member, a spiral groove that engages with the engagement pin of the plate member formed in the spiral member and guides the upper end of the plate member so as not to protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member, a locking groove formed to open into the notch on the upper side of the inner tube member and into which the engagement pin is inserted with the upper end of the plate member protruding upward beyond the upper end of the outer tube member, and a guide groove that opens into the spiral groove, which allows the engagement pin to be inserted and positioned in the locking groove formed in the upper part of the spiral member, so that the upper end of the plate member can protrude upward beyond the upper end of the outer tube member, and the engagement pin is attached to the opening of the guide groove. The upward momentum of the plate member is reduced by the contact, and the engagement pin The main feature of this type of screw is that it is formed with a safety protrusion that temporarily prevents the screw from being guided from the spiral groove into the guide groove. Effect of the Invention

[0009] The present invention has the effect of preventing the dish member from moving above a predetermined position and protruding above the upper end of the outer tube member when the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated to dispense lipstick or the like, as the dish member also rises forcefully when the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated vigorously, particularly when the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated vigorously, thereby preventing the dish member from moving above a predetermined position and protruding above the upper end of the outer tube member.

[Figure 7] FIG. 4 is a development view of a helical member according to an embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0011] When the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated to deliver lipstick or the like, if the outer tube member and the hakama are rotated vigorously, the plate member also rises vigorously, causing the plate member to move upward from a predetermined position and to protrude above the upper end of the outer tube member. This is achieved by the engagement pin being inserted into the opening of the guide groove. This is achieved by forming a safety protrusion that temporarily prevents the engagement pin from being guided from the spiral groove into the guide groove, thereby reducing the upward momentum of the disk member upon contact. EXAMPLES

[0012] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. As shown in Figs.In the embodiment, 1 is a hakama member, which is composed of a hakama member main body 2 having an open upper portion, and a cap fitting member 4 having a cap fitting portion 3 formed on the outer periphery above the open end of the hakama member main body 2, which is fitted and fixed to the hakama member main body 2.

[0013] Reference numeral 5 denotes an inner tube member whose lower end is inserted and fixed into the hakama member 1, and this inner tube member 5 has ring-shaped spiral member locking protrusions 6, 7 at the top and bottom, a notch 8 in the axial direction, and a locking groove 9 near the top that opens into the notch 8.

[0014] Reference numeral 10 denotes a helical member that is engaged with the helical member engaging protrusions 6, 7 which rotatably cover the outer periphery of the inner tube member 5. This helical member 10 is formed with a helical groove 13 having a horizontal support axis 12 at the top, and a guide groove 14 which opens into the helical groove 13 at a position corresponding to the engaging groove 9 of the inner tube member 5.

[0015] Reference numeral 15 denotes an outer cylindrical member attached so as to cover the outer periphery of the helical member 10 .

[0016] Reference numeral 16 denotes a plate member having a predetermined weight that can move under its own weight and supports lipstick 17 that is attached so as to be movable up and down inside said inner cylinder member 5. This plate member 16 is fitted with an engagement pin 18 that engages with the notch 8 of said inner cylinder member 5 and the spiral groove 13 of said spiral member 10. The raw material for this plate member 16 is mainly metal material such as iron, copper alloys such as brass, or aluminum, but it is not limited to these and other materials, for example, a material in which metal powder and plastic material are kneaded, can be molded. This is what It doesn't hurt to have it.

[0017] The attachment portion of this engagement pin 18 to the dish member 16 is such that when the engagement pin 18 is engaged with the spiral groove 13 and support groove 12 of the spiral member 10, the upper end of the dish member 16 does not protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member 15, and when the engagement pin 18 is engaged with the locking groove 9 of the inner tube member 5, the upper end of the dish member 16 protrudes beyond the upper end of the outer tube member 15.

[0018] 19 is This cap covers the outer periphery of the outer cylinder member 15 and is detachably fitted into the cap fitting portion 3 of the hakama member 1 .

[0019] The container 20 for storing lipstick or the like having the above-mentioned structure is rotated by holding the hakama member 1 and the outer cylinder member 15, and the plate member 16 is positioned at the top as shown in FIG.

[0020] Then, Figures 5 and 6 As shown in FIG. 1, a push-up pin 23 can be inserted through the push-up pin insertion hole 24 on the underside of the hakama member 1 so that the upper end of the plate member 16 can protrude beyond the upper end of the outer tube member 15, and the plate member 16 can be pushed upward to position the engagement pin 18 within the guide groove 14 of the spiral member 10.

[0021] In this state, by rotating the lid member 1 and the outer cylindrical member 15 in a direction to raise the plate member 16, the engagement pin 18 is pushed into the engagement groove 9 of the inner cylindrical member 5 and engaged therein, as shown in FIG. In this manner, lipstick 17 is filled into the dish member 16 with the upper end of the dish member 16 protruding from the upper end of the outer cylinder member 15 .

[0022] When the dish member 16 is filled with lipstick 17, the dish member 16 is rotated downward by holding the hakama member 1 and the outer tube member 15, whereby the engaging pin 18 is pushed down from the locking groove 9 into the cutout portion 8 by the surface formed on the same inclined plane as the spiral groove 13 of the guide groove 14 of the spiral member 10, and is lowered.

[0023] In this state, the upper end of the plate member 16 is positioned below the upper end of the outer tube member 15, and the plate member 16 moves up and down by rotating the hakama member 1 and the outer tube member 15. However, the engagement pin 18 only engages with the spiral groove 13 and the support groove 12 of the spiral member 10. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the upper end of the plate member 16 does not protrude beyond the upper end of the outer cylindrical member 15.

[0024] Reference numeral 11 denotes a safety protrusion formed at a position where an engagement pin 18 on the upper edge of the spiral groove 13 is guided from the spiral groove 13 to the guide groove 14. This safety protrusion 11 acts to temporarily prevent the engagement pin 18 from being guided from the spiral groove 13 to the guide groove 14. When the outer barrel member 15 and the hakama member 1 are rotated vigorously when pushing out lipstick or the like, the plate member 16 may also rise vigorously, and the plate member 16 may move upward from a predetermined position and protrude above the upper end of the outer barrel member 15. However, when this safety protrusion 11 comes into contact with the engagement pin 18, The plate member 16 rises. The momentum is attenuated and the engaging pin 18 can be reliably guided to the support shaft 12. [Industrial Applicability]

[0025] Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it can also be used as a container for storing stick-shaped cosmetics such as stick eye shadow and stick foundation. [Explanation of symbols]
