Compact Cosmetic Container with Disk-Type Panel for Uniform Discharge
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional compact containers for cosmetics make it difficult to use a uniform amount of cosmetic solution, leading to excessive or insufficient application, and can cause chemical changes or contamination due to improper closure.
Innovation Solution
A compact container with a push-type button and a disk-type panel featuring micro-holes, which uses an airless pump mechanism to uniformly discharge cosmetic solutions, ensuring consistent application and preventing contamination by maintaining airtightness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If conventional compact container design is used, then the container structure is simple, but the cosmetic solution cannot be discharged uniformly and contamination occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The discharge system is segmented into multiple functional components: a piston module for controlled displacement, a disk-type panel with multiple micro-holes for uniform distribution, and a valve module for precise flow control. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function optimally, achieving uniform cosmetic solution discharge while maintaining a manageable overall structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The disk-type panel with micro-holes acts as an intermediary between the cosmetic solution reservoir and the discharge point. It distributes the solution uniformly through its multiple small holes, transforming the discharge pattern from non-uniform to uniform without significantly complicating the overall container structure.
2Ease of operation
If the overcap is artificially opened and stored, then the container is easy to access, but the contents undergo chemical changes and the peripheral portion becomes contaminated
Solution Approach 1:
The valve module is designed to automatically close and seal the cosmetic solution pathway when the push button is not being used. This preliminary closing action prevents contamination and chemical changes before they can occur, while still allowing easy access when needed by simply pressing the button.
Solution Approach 2:
The container system includes self-sealing mechanisms that automatically prevent contamination when not in use. The valve module and piston design enable the system to protect its own contents without requiring user intervention to close seals or prevent contamination, maintaining reliability while preserving ease of access.
3Measurement precision
If conventional discharge mechanism is used, then the container structure is simple, but the user cannot use a uniform amount of contents
Solution Approach 1:
The disk-type panel features locally distributed micro-holes that create uniform flow patterns across the discharge area. Each micro-hole contributes to the overall uniform discharge, allowing precise control of the cosmetic solution amount without requiring a complex overall mechanism design.
Solution Approach 2:
The piston module provides dynamic control over the cosmetic solution discharge by moving up and down in response to push button actuation. This dynamic mechanism enables precise control of the discharged amount while keeping the overall structure relatively simple, as the piston's movement is directly coupled to the button press.
