Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a case for sunscreen, and more specifically, to a case for sunscreen that improves hygiene and convenience of use by allowing the user to apply sunscreen stored in the container through the application guide while the stopper part is separated from the container part, thereby eliminating the need to apply sunscreen to the user's hands. Background Technology

[0003] Generally, sunscreen is used as a means to protect the skin from ultraviolet rays, and most of these sunscreens are stored and used in tube containers that are dispensed by pressurized operation using external force.

[0004] Such a tube container is formed from a soft synthetic resin so that the stored sunscreen can be squeezed out and used, and consists of a container body that stores the sunscreen and a stopper that covers the top of the container body to open and close the opening of the container body.

[0005] In other words, the user removes the stopper covering the opening of the container body, dispenses the sunscreen stored inside the container body, and then protects the sunscreen stored inside the container body by covering the opening of the container body with the stopper again.

[0006] However, in the case of tube containers according to the prior art, in order for a user to use the sunscreen stored inside the container body, the user must open the cap, squeeze the stored sunscreen onto their hand, and then apply the sunscreen directly to the skin using their hand. This results in a sticky sensation on the user's hand after application, causing the user to have to wash off the sunscreen that has gotten on their hand, which is inconvenient. Furthermore, if the user rubs the sunscreen onto their skin with their hand while their hand is dirty, it causes skin irritation.

[0007] Therefore, there is a need to improve this.

[0008] A related background technology is Korean Published Patent Application No. 10-2012-0006907 (published Jan. 19, 2012, Title: Sun Cream Applicator). The problem to be solved

[0010] The present invention was created out of the above-mentioned necessity, and aims to provide a sunscreen case that improves hygiene and convenience of use by allowing the user to apply the sunscreen stored in the container to the user's skin through the application guide while the stopper part is separated from the container part, thereby eliminating the need to apply the sunscreen to the user's hands. means of solving the problem

[0012] To achieve the above objective, a case for sunscreen according to one embodiment of the present invention is characterized by comprising a container portion in which sunscreen is stored so as to be dispensed, a stopper portion detachably connected to the container portion, and an application guide portion that guides the application of the sunscreen stored in the container portion to the user's skin when the stopper portion is separated from the container portion.

[0013] The above application guide is characterized by comprising a puff member disposed on the open side where the stopper part is connected to the container part to apply sunscreen stored in the container part so as to be in contact with the user's skin, and an elastic extension connecting part connecting the puff member and the stopper part so that the puff member is supported to be elastically extendable and retractable from the stopper part.

[0014] The above elastic protruding and retracting connecting portion is characterized by comprising: a support block formed protruding from the inner side of the stopper portion and having a locking groove formed recessed in the thickness direction; a movable shaft portion inserted into the locking groove portion so as to be axially movable; a fixed cover provided at the end of the movable shaft portion to cover the puff member so as to be fixed; and an elastic member fitted into the movable shaft portion such that one side is supported by the support block and the other side is supported by the fixed cover.

[0015] The above puff member is deformed into a shape corresponding to the shape of the contact area by a contact deformation guide when in contact with the skin, and the contact deformation guide comprises a filling space formed inside the puff member, a cushioning material filled in the filling space with a set capacity, a plurality of through holes formed in the puff member to allow air to flow in or out into the filling space, a communication hole formed in the support block to communicate with the through holes, and a filter member installed in the communication holes to prevent the cushioning material from detaching from the filling space when air flows in or out into the communication holes. Effects of the invention

[0017] According to the sunscreen case of the present invention, since the sunscreen stored in the container is applied directly to the user's skin through the application guide while the cap portion is separated from the container portion, there is no need to apply the sunscreen to the user's hands, thereby improving hygiene and convenience of use.

[0020] Hereinafter, an embodiment of a sunscreen case according to the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings. In this process, the thickness of the lines or the size of the components shown in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of explanation.

[0021] Furthermore, the terms described below are defined in consideration of their functions in the present invention, and these may vary depending on the intent or practice of the user or operator. Therefore, the definitions of these terms should be based on the content throughout this specification.

[0023] FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view illustrating a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a bottom exploded perspective view illustrating a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a state in which a puff member is spaced apart from the skin in a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a state in which a puff member is in contact with the skin in a sunscreen case according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0025] As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6, a case for sunscreen according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a container part (10), a stopper part (20), and an application guide part (30).

[0026] The container part (10) is configured to store sunscreen so that it can be dispensed.

[0027] The container (10) includes a storage body (11) that is open on one side and can store a certain amount of sunscreen, a fastening neck part (12) that is extended from one side of the storage body (11) and connected to a stopper part (20), and an outflow guide part (13) that is connected to the open part of the storage body (11) and guides the sunscreen to flow out.

[0028] At this time, a plurality of through holes (13a) are formed through the outflow guide (13).

[0029] Of course, the shape and material of the storage body (11) are not specifically limited and can be changed to various shapes and various materials.

[0030] And, the stopper part (20) is configured to be detachably connected to the container part (10).

[0031] This stopper part (20) serves to be detachably coupled to the fastening neck part (12) of the container part (10) and simultaneously provides a space for the application guide part (30) to be installed.

[0032] At this time, a fitting guide ring (21) that guides the user's finger to be fitted into the end of the stopper portion (20) may be formed in a U-shape. That is, when the user's finger is fitted into the fitting guide ring (21), the stopper portion (20) can be held in the user's hand so as not to be removed, thereby making it easy to apply or rub the puff member (31) of the application guide portion (30) onto the skin.

[0033] Of course, the shape and material of the stopper (20) are not specifically limited, and can be changed to various shapes and materials within the technical concept of being detachably coupled to the fastening neck (12) of the container (10).

[0034] Meanwhile, the application guide (30) is configured to guide the user to apply sunscreen stored in the storage body (11) of the container (10) to the user's skin while the cap (20) is separated from the fastening neck (12) of the container (10).

[0035] Specifically, the application guide (30) includes a puff member (31) positioned on the open side where the cap member (20) is connected to the container member (10) to apply the sunscreen stored in the container member (10) to the user's skin so as to be in contact with it, and an elastic extension connection part (32) connecting the puff member (31) and the cap member (20) so that the puff member (31) is supported to be elastically extendable and retractable from the cap member (20).

[0036] At this time, the material of the puff member (31) is not particularly limited, but it is advantageous to make it of silicone material so that the adsorption of sunscreen is prevented.

[0037] Additionally, the elastic protruding connection part (32) may include a support block (33) formed protruding from the inner side of the plug part (20) and having a recessed groove (33a) formed in the thickness direction, a movable shaft part (34) inserted so as to be axially movable into the recessed groove (33a), a fixing cover (35) provided at the end of the movable shaft part (34) to cover the puff member (31) so as to be fixed, and an elastic member (36) fitted into the movable shaft part (34) such that one side is supported by the support block (33) and the other side is supported by the fixing cover (35).

[0038] That is, when the stopper part (20) is separated from the container part (10) and a certain amount of sunscreen from the container part (10) is applied to the puff member (31), and the puff member (31) is tapped to come into contact with the user's skin, the moving shaft part (34) moves axially so that the fixed cover (35) compresses the elastic member (36) when the puff member (31) comes into contact with the skin, and moves axially to the initial position by the restoring force of the elastic member (36) when the puff member (31) is separated from the skin. Accordingly, the puff member (31) can provide a cushioning sensation during the process of tapping to come into contact with the user's skin.

[0039] At this time, when the puff member (31) comes into contact with the skin, it can be deformed into a shape corresponding to the shape of the contact area by the contact deformation guide (40).

[0040] To this end, the contact deformation guide (40) includes a filling space (41) formed inside the puff member (31), a cushioning material (42) filled in the filling space (41) with a set capacity, a plurality of through holes (43) formed in the puff member (31) to allow air to flow into or out of the filling space (41), a communication hole (44) formed in the support block (33) to communicate with the through holes (43), and a filter member (45) installed in the communication hole (44) to prevent the cushioning material (42) from escaping from the filling space (41) when air flows into or out of the communication hole (44).

[0041] At this time, the buffer material (42) is made of sand with fine particles and is filled in the filling space (41) in a range of 80% to 90%, and the filter member (45) is preferably made of a material that allows air to pass through while preventing the buffer material (42) from passing through.

[0042] That is, when the puff member (31) adheres to the skin and the cushioning material (42) is deformed into a shape corresponding to the area where the puff member (31) adheres, the internal air of the filling space (41) is discharged to the outside through the through hole (43) and the connecting hole (44), and when the puff member (31) is separated from the skin, external air flows into the interior of the filling space (41) through the through hole (43) and the connecting hole (44).

[0043] At this time, the filter member (45) prevents the leakage of the buffer material (42) mixed in the air while allowing the flow of air when external air is introduced into the interior of the charging space (41) or when the internal air of the charging space (41) is discharged to the outside.

[0044] Accordingly, when the puff member (31) comes into contact with the skin while the sunscreen is applied, it can enhance the absorption of the sunscreen into the skin.

[0046] Although the present invention has been described with reference to an embodiment illustrated in the drawings, this is merely illustrative, and those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and equivalent alternative embodiments are possible therefrom.

[0047] Therefore, the true technical scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the claims below. Explanation of the symbols
