Description

A cosmetic applicator capable of controlling the amount of contents dispensed

[0001] The present invention relates to a cosmetic applicator, and more specifically, to a cosmetic applicator that dispenses a desired amount of contents and allows for convenient application.

[0002] Generally, a cosmetic applicator capable of applying cosmetics to the lips, eyebrows, skin, etc., consists of a handle cap screwed into a container holding the cosmetic, a brush extending from the handle cap, and an application tip provided at the bottom of the brush. Such an applicator is designed so that the application tip is stored inside the container while the handle cap is screwed into the container.

[0003] The application tip holds a certain amount of cosmetic product while in contact with the contents while stored inside the container, and when the user rubs the application tip on the skin surface, the contents are delivered evenly to the skin.

[0004] However, conventional cosmetic applicators have a problem where, when the application tip is rubbed against the skin surface, the already applied cosmetic product adheres to the tip again, resulting in uneven application. Additionally, since a sufficient amount of product often fails to penetrate the surface of the application tip, users face the inconvenience of having to repeatedly insert the tip into the container to pick up the cosmetic product multiple times before applying it to the skin.

[0005] Furthermore, since the amount of product absorbed into the applicator tip cannot be determined and the user cannot control the dispensing volume, cases frequently occur where the product is excessively dispensed, resulting in a failure to achieve the desired cosmetic effect.

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the above problems by providing a cosmetic applicator that facilitates the smooth delivery of contents from the application tip to the skin surface and allows for the control of the amount of contents contained in the application tip to be dispensed, thereby enabling the contents to be applied conveniently and easily to the skin surface.

[0007] The technical problems of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other unmentioned technical problems will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the description below.

[0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a cosmetic applicator is provided. The cosmetic applicator comprises a brush holder; and an application tip fixed to the brush holder, wherein the application tip comprises a tip body connected to the brush holder; a squeeze portion formed at a predetermined distance from the tip body; and a squeeze receiving portion that receives contents between the tip body and the squeeze portion, wherein the squeeze portion moves toward the tip body by contact pressure and can discharge contents contained in the squeeze receiving portion.

[0009] According to another embodiment of the present invention, a cosmetic applicator is provided. The cosmetic applicator comprises a brush holder; and an application tip fixed to the brush holder, wherein the application tip includes a squeeze receiving portion for receiving contents, and the squeeze receiving portion may be formed as a concave annular groove along the circumference of the application tip.

[0010] According to another embodiment of the present invention, a cosmetic applicator is provided. The cosmetic applicator comprises a brush holder; and an application tip fixed to the brush holder, wherein the application tip includes a plurality of straight protrusions spaced apart from one end to the other end, and a straight groove portion for receiving contents may be formed between the straight protrusions.

[0011] According to the present invention, the delivery of the contents from the application tip to the skin surface is smooth, and the amount of contents contained in the application tip can be easily controlled. Specifically, the amount of contents in the application tip can be increased, and the amount of contents can be controlled by the contact pressure of the applicator, so that the contents can be applied conveniently and easily.

[0037]

[0038] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing a cosmetic container according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, FIG. 1(a) is a perspective view of a cosmetic container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1(b) is a drawing showing a state in which a cosmetic applicator is separated from the container body. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1(a), and FIG. 3 illustrates an application tip according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0039] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a cosmetic container (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a container body (110) for holding contents; and cosmetic applicators (120, 130, 140) inserted into the container body (110) for holding contents.

[0040] The contents contained in the container body (110) may contain cosmetics, medicines, etc., and may be used not only as lip products such as lip gloss, lip tint, and lip marker, and makeup products such as mascara, but also as products applicable to the scalp or hair. However, they are not limited thereto. The contents contained in the container body (110) may be in a liquid form and may be contained in a form impregnated in an impregnating material such as a sponge.

[0041] The cosmetic applicator (120, 130, 140) has the function of delivering the contents contained in the container body (110) to the lips, eyebrows, scalp, skin, etc., and can apply the contents evenly and effectively to the area desired by the user.

[0042] A cosmetic applicator (120, 130, 140) may include a handle cap (120) coupled to a container body (110); a brush (130) coupled to the handle cap (120); and an application tip (140) fixed to the brush (130) and containing contents.

[0043] The brush head (130) is connected to the handle cap (120) so that it can be easily pulled out of the container body (110) by gripping the handle cap (120), and is used to apply the contents to an application surface such as lips by handling the position and movement of the application tip (140).

[0044] At this time, a wiper (111) is provided inside the container body (110), so that when the brush (130) passes through the wiper (111), the contents attached to the brush (130) can be wiped into the inside of the container body (110).

[0045] The application tip (140) is fixed to the brush (130) and can contain contents and deliver them to the skin. The application tip (140) may be formed integrally with the brush (130) or may be formed to be detachable from the brush (130).

[0046] The application tip (140) may include a tip body (1410) connected to a brush; a squeeze portion (1420) formed at a predetermined distance from the tip body (1410); and a squeeze receiving portion (150) that receives contents between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420).

[0047] The tip body (1410) can be connected to the end of the brush head (130) to form the frame of the application tip (140).

[0048] The squeeze portion (1420) is formed at a predetermined distance from the tip body (1410), and a squeeze receiving portion (150) for receiving contents can be formed between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420).

[0049] The squeeze receiving portion (150) can retain the contents even after being taken out of the container body (110) after containing the contents inside the container body (110). That is, the contents can be contained within the squeeze receiving portion (150) and then discharged to the outside by external pressure applied to the squeeze receiving portion (150).

[0050] To this end, the squeeze portion (1420) is elastically connected to the tip body (1410) so that it can return to its original position after discharging the contents contained in the squeeze receiving portion (150) by contact pressure. In other words, the squeeze portion (1420) is elastically connected to the tip body (1410) so that it moves toward the tip body (1410) by contact pressure to discharge the contents and then returns to its original position. Accordingly, the user can repeatedly press the squeeze portion (1420) to discharge the contents contained in the squeeze receiving portion (150).

[0051] The tip body (1410) can be formed with a smooth curved surface and can be formed in a shape that wraps around the inner side. The squeeze portion (1420) can be formed in a shape that covers an open area not covered by the tip body (1410). Through this, the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420) close the circumference of the dispensing tip (140), thereby effectively trapping the contents inside.

[0052] The tip body (1410) may include a soft application surface (1413) for applying the contents to the surface of the skin. This application surface (1413) may be formed on a surface in a direction different from the surface to which the squeeze portion (1420) is connected. In this case, the user can dispense the contents using the squeeze portion (1420), then change direction toward the surface of the tip body (1410) and apply the contents evenly using the application surface (1413) of the tip body (1410). However, this is not limited thereto, and the application surface (1413) may be formed on various surfaces of the tip body (1410).

[0053] The squeeze receiving portion (150) according to the present embodiment may include a receiving groove (151) that is concavely formed along the longitudinal direction of the brush (130); and a discharge opening (156) through which contents are discharged between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420).

[0054] Since the squeeze receiving portion (150) receives the contents in the receiving groove portion (151), it can contain a much larger amount of contents compared to a conventional single-structure application tip.

[0055] The receiving groove (151) of the squeeze receiving portion (150) may include an inclined groove (152) and / or an expanded groove (153). For example, the inclined groove (152) may be provided from one end of the tip body (1410) to a predetermined distance (e.g., the middle part), or the expanded groove (153) may be provided such that the width of the groove gradually increases from the brush (130) side toward the tip end. By configuring the inclined groove (152) or the expanded groove (153), the contents contained in the squeeze receiving portion (150) can be effectively discharged.

[0056] The squeeze receiving portion (150) may include a tip discharge port (156-1) provided at the end of the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420); and a side discharge port (156-2) provided between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420).

[0057] Accordingly, the contents in the receiving groove (151) are discharged by the pressure of the squeeze portion (1420) along the receiving groove (151) (e.g., inclined groove (152) and expanded groove (153)) to the tip discharge port (156-1), which is a discharge opening (156) provided on the tip side of the tip body (1410), and as the pressure of the squeeze portion (1420) increases, they can be discharged to the side discharge port (156-2).

[0058] In this way, the contents in the receiving groove (151) can be evenly discharged to the front discharge port (156-1) and the side discharge port (156-2) by the operating pressure of the squeeze part (1420) and delivered to the skin surface. The size of the front discharge port (156-1) and the side discharge port (156-2) can be adjusted by considering the type and viscosity of the contents, and thereby the amount of contents discharged can be controlled.

[0059] Both sides of the tip body (1410) may be formed as curved surfaces that surround the receiving groove (151). According to an embodiment, the upper portion of both sides of the tip body (1410) adjacent to the tip is formed with a steeper slope than the lower portion adjacent to the brush (130), thereby lowering the height of the receiving groove (151) so that the contents discharged through the tip discharge port (156-1) can be discharged widely and evenly delivered to the skin surface.

[0060] The squeeze portion (1420) may be in a shape that protrudes outward from the receiving groove portion (151). The squeeze portion (1420) may protrude in a round and long manner outward from the receiving groove portion (151), thereby facilitating contact with the skin surface.

[0061] A curved groove (1421) may be provided in the squeeze portion (1420). The curved groove (1421) may serve to form a larger side discharge opening (156-2). By expanding the side discharge opening (156-2) through this curved groove (1421), the contents in the receiving groove (151) can be properly discharged and delivered to the skin surface, for example, the middle of the lips, by traveling along the curved groove (1421) located in the middle of the squeeze portion (1420). That is, the user can deliver the contents to the middle of the lips and spread them evenly. The size and number of the curved grooves (1421) can be appropriately modified and applied considering the amount of contents discharged.

[0062]

[0063] At least a portion of the dispensing tip (140) may be flocked, or various other processing treatments such as coating and texturing may be applied. This allows the dispensing tip (140) to provide a smoother and more uniform application, or to improve the absorption and delivery efficiency of the contents depending on the specific application.

[0064] The material of the application tip (140) can be optionally made of a flexible and highly durable material such as silicone or TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer), and metal (SUS) can be applied to provide a cooling sensation. As such, the material of the application tip (140) can be a combination of various materials depending on the purpose of use and the area to be applied. For example, silicone or TPE can be used when skin irritation needs to be minimized, and metal can be used when heat conductivity needs to be increased or a cooling effect needs to be provided. In addition, the materials of the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) can be composed identically, but different materials can be optionally combined depending on the purpose and performance requirements to provide the user with the desired sensation.

[0065]

[0066] FIG. 4 is a drawing showing the usage state of the application tip (140). Referring to FIG. 4, the usage method of the cosmetic applicator of the present invention according to one embodiment is explained as follows.

[0067] According to one embodiment, the application tip (140) is composed of a tip body (1410) and a squeeze portion (1420), and a squeeze receiving portion (150) capable of receiving contents is formed between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze portion (1420). When the user separates the handle cap (120) from the container body (110), a soft wiper (111) sweeps down the brush (130) and the application tip (140) and pushes the contents into the receiving groove (151) of the squeeze receiving portion (150) to contain them.

[0068] The squeeze portion (1420) is elastically connected to the tip body (1410) and can move toward the tip body (1410) according to contact pressure. When a user applies gentle pressure by bringing the squeeze portion (1420) of the application tip (140) into contact with the skin surface, the squeeze portion (1420) is pressed toward the tip body (1410), and the contents contained in the receiving groove (151) of the squeeze receiving portion (150) are discharged through the discharge opening (156). Subsequently, the user can turn the squeeze portion (1420) to the opposite side and use the application surface (1413) of the tip body (1410) to spread the discharged contents evenly.

[0069] In this way, the user can control the amount of contents dispensed by appropriately adjusting the contact pressure applied to the application tip (140) and the skin surface, and can spread and apply it smoothly using the application surface (1413).

[0070]

[0071] The squeeze portion (1420) may be shorter in length than the tip body (1410). Since the discharge pattern of the contents may vary depending on the height difference between the squeeze portion (1420) and the tip body (1410), the height difference between the squeeze portion (1420) and the tip body (1410) can be appropriately set according to the type of contents and the area to be applied.

[0072] In the embodiment, the height (h) from the tip body (1410) to the squeeze portion (1420) is -2 <h<0 일 수 있고, 구체적으로 -1.8 <h<-0.5일 수 있고, 더 구체적으로 -1.6 <h<-1.0 일 수 있고, 가장 구체적으로 -1.6<h<-1.2 일 수 있다. 이 때, 높이(h)는 팁 바디(1410) 기준으로 수직방향으로 스퀴즈부(1420)의 단부까지의 거리(높이(h))를 측정한 것을 의미하며, 상기 높이 범위에서 내용물의 토출이 효과적이며, 토출 정확도가 높을 수 있다.

[0073] The squeeze portion (1420) is spaced apart from the tip body (1410) and can be formed in a shape that is spread apart at a predetermined angle with the tip body (1410). Depending on the difference in the angle between the squeeze portion (1420) and the tip body (1410), the volume capable of accommodating the contents may vary, and the range of movement of the squeeze portion (1420) may be determined, thereby varying the degree of dispensing of the contents. Additionally, since the degree of spread of the squeeze portion (1420) also affects the degree of interference with the wiper, an optimal angle can be set by considering the convenience of withdrawing the brush (130) and the interaction between the application tip (140) and the wiper (111).

[0074] In the embodiment, the squeeze portion (1420) can be opened 3 to 8 degrees outward with respect to 90 degrees, specifically 4 to 6 degrees, and more specifically 4.5 to 6.5 degrees. At this time, the degree of opening of the squeeze portion (1420) is measured by the angle at which the end of the squeeze portion (1420) is opened outward with respect to 90 degrees, and within the angle range, the volume for accommodating the contents is appropriate, so the discharge of the contents is effective and usability can be excellent.

[0075] In this way, the squeeze portion (1420) protrudes outward at a predetermined angle, making it easy to contact the skin surface. It also has appropriate elasticity, allowing it to move toward the tip body (1410) and discharge the contents. Additionally, the squeeze portion (1420) has elastic recovery properties, so it returns to its original opened angle after contact pressure is applied. At this time, the contents that escape are restored by tension, allowing a sufficient amount of contents to be contained without any loss.

[0076]

[0077] [Experimental Example]

[0078] Experimental Example 1. Comparative experiment based on the height difference between the tip body and the squeeze part

[0079] In order to compare the effects according to the height difference between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) of the dispensing tip (140), the dispensing accuracy was measured by changing the height difference between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) as shown in Table 1 below. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the length (b) of the tip body (1410) was kept constant while the length (a) of the squeeze part (1420) was changed, and the height difference from b to a was measured in the vertical direction based on b. The dispensing accuracy was evaluated by observing the pattern of the contents being discharged while applying pressure to the squeeze part (1420) toward the tip body (1410), according to the following criteria.

[0080] ○: Suitable for application

[0081] △: Applicable, but somewhat lacking

[0082] X: Unsuitable for application

[0083]

[0084] The evaluation results are shown in Table 1, and a photograph taken after dispensing the contents is shown in Figure 6.

[0085]

[0086]

[0087] As a result of the experiment, when the height difference was -2mm, the squeeze part (1420) was excessively short compared to the tip body (1410), and the contents were discharged inward. Meanwhile, when the height difference was -1.45mm, the contents were applied to the center of the coating surface and discharged uniformly. When the height difference was 0~1mm, the contents were discharged irregularly without left-right or up-down directionality, and when the height difference exceeded 1mm, the tip body (1410) could not sufficiently cover the contents accumulated between the squeeze part (1420) and the tip body (1410), and the contents were discharged to the left, right, and back.

[0088] Therefore, it can be seen that the discharge pattern of the contents changes depending on the height difference between the squeeze part (1420) and the tip body (1410), and it has been confirmed that the height difference between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) is an important factor in the discharge accuracy.

[0089]

[0090] Experimental Example 2. Comparative experiment based on the difference in angle between the tip body and the squeeze part

[0091] In order to compare the discharge effect according to the difference in the angle between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) of the coating tip (140), the degree of wiper interference, discharge amount, and usability were evaluated by changing the angle between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) as shown in Table 2 below. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the angle of the squeeze part (1420) was changed while maintaining the same angle of the tip body (1410), and the angle to the end of the squeeze part (1420) in the outward direction was measured based on 90 degrees.

[0092] The degree of wiper interference was evaluated by assessing the degree of interference with the wiper (111) when the application tip (140) is attached to the container body (110), the discharge amount was assessed by observing the pattern of the contents being discharged by pressing the squeeze part (1420) toward the tip body (1410) after passing the wiper (111), and the usability was evaluated by whether it is easy to discharge the contents by pressing the squeeze part (1420) toward the tip body (1410). The evaluation criteria are as follows, the evaluation results are shown in Table 2, and a photograph taken after the contents were discharged is shown in FIG. 8.

[0093] ○: Suitable for application

[0094] △: Applicable, but somewhat lacking

[0095] X: Unsuitable for application

[0096]

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] As a result of the experiment, when the squeeze part (1420) was opened 2.5 degrees outward, there was no problem with the degree of interference with the wiper, but the volume was insufficient so it could not hold enough contents, resulting in a small discharge amount, and it was found that the usability was poor due to the slight change in angle.

[0100] Meanwhile, when the squeeze portion (1420) was opened outward at 4.5 degrees and 6.5 degrees, there was almost no interference with the wiper, and it was confirmed that the contents that escaped during the process of the squeeze portion (1420) returning to its original state after passing the wiper were restored by tension, so that a sufficient amount of contents could be contained without any loss. Therefore, it was found that an appropriate amount of contents was discharged and usability was good.

[0101] When the squeeze portion (1420) was opened 8.5 degrees outward, the discharge volume was sufficient, but the degree of interference with the wiper was large, causing it to bend excessively inward when passing the wiper, resulting in loss of the contained contents. Consequently, it was found that uniform discharge was not achieved, as this affected the discharge volume. Additionally, it was found that the usability was poor because a lot of force was required to press the squeeze portion (1420) toward the tip body (1410).

[0102] Therefore, it can be seen that the capacity and dispensing pattern of the contents vary depending on the angle difference between the squeeze part (1420) and the tip body (1410), and it has been confirmed that the angle difference between the tip body (1410) and the squeeze part (1420) is an important factor in proper dispensing of contents and usability.

[0103]

[0104] FIG. 9 is a cosmetic applicator according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0105] Referring to FIG. 9, a cosmetic applicator according to another embodiment of the present invention comprises a brush (130); and an application tip (140) fixed to the brush, wherein the application tip (140) includes a squeeze receiving portion (150) in which contents are received, and the squeeze receiving portion (150) may be formed as a concave annular groove (160) along the circumference of the application tip (140).

[0106] In the embodiment, the annular groove (160) is formed on one side of the tip body (1410), and both sides may be provided in an inclined shape.

[0107] Additionally, due to the formation of the annular groove (160), the relatively protruding part leads to a smooth curved surface and can form a rounded inclined coating surface (161). Therefore, the user can apply the contents using the relatively protruding rounded inclined coating surface (161).

[0108] In this way, the application tip (140) according to another embodiment can be pushed into the annular groove (160) and contained as it passes through the wiper (111) of the container body (110), and can be discharged to the outside of the container body (110) and used on a skin surface such as the lips.

[0109] That is, the user can hold the handle cap (120) connected to the brush (130) and bring the application tip (140) into contact with the skin surface to deliver the contents in the annular groove (160) to the lips, and apply it evenly to the lips using the rounded beveled application surface (161).

[0110]

[0111] FIG. 10 is a cosmetic applicator according to another embodiment.

[0112] According to another embodiment of the present invention with reference to FIG. 10, the application tip (140) includes a plurality of straight protrusions (170) spaced apart from one end to the other end, and a straight groove (171) is formed between the straight protrusions (170). Contents can be received in the straight groove (171).

[0113] The coating tip (140) having a straight groove (171) formed thereon may have a plurality of straight protrusions (170) formed on one side and a round coating surface (1413) on the opposite side. The side having the straight groove (171) formed thereon may have a curved shape.

[0114] The heights of the multiple straight protrusions (170) may differ from one another. For example, the height of the straight protrusions (170) may be formed higher toward the center, so that contact with the straight protrusions (170) in the center is facilitated when applied to the skin surface. The depth of the straight grooves (171) between the multiple straight protrusions (170) may also be formed differently.

[0115] The application tip (140) may include a receiving groove (151) formed by penetrating a plurality of straight protrusions (170). Accordingly, when the straight protrusions (170) come into contact with the skin, they are elastically pressed, allowing the contents in the receiving groove (151) and the straight groove (171) to be easily discharged to the outside.

[0116] In this way, the multiple straight protrusions (170) can easily contain the contents in the receiving groove (151) and the straight groove (171) and deliver them to the skin, and appropriately adjust the pressure with the skin to dispense an appropriate amount of contents onto the skin surface.

[0117] Additionally, the plurality of straight protrusions (170) have a structure in which a penetrating receiving groove (151) is located inside, and can be provided with an elastic material capable of discharging contents by pressure.

[0118] According to this other embodiment, the application tip (140) can be used on the skin by passing through the wiper (111) of the container body (110), pushing the contents into a plurality of straight grooves (171), and being contained inside the receiving groove (151) and then being discharged to the outside of the container body (110).

[0119] That is, the user can hold the handle cap (120) connected to the brush (130) and bring the application tip (140) into contact with the skin surface to deliver the contents inside the receiving groove (151) and the straight groove (171) to the skin, and apply it evenly to the skin using the round application surface (1413) on the opposite side of the straight groove (171) on the application tip (140).
