Vertically Pressed Cosmetic Container with Inclined Protrusion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional cosmetic containers are inconvenient for one-handed use and result in uneven dispensing of cosmetic material, leading to waste, with issues of hygiene and splattering due to the design of the nozzle and the need for additional tools.
Innovation Solution
A vertically pressed compact container with a pouch frame and airless pump, featuring an inclined protruding portion and a 'U'-shaped nozzle to prevent splattering, allowing for precise dispensing with one hand and incorporating a makeup tool container for hygiene.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If an airless pump is operated by pushing a button horizontally from the rear, then the cosmetic material can be dispensed, but it is very inconvenient to use with one hand
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the traditional horizontal pushing motion to a vertical pressing motion. The button is positioned on the top surface of the container and pressed vertically downward, which is a more natural and convenient gesture for one-handed operation. This inversion of the operating direction resolves the contradiction between ease of operation and device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the dimension of operation from horizontal (pushing from the rear) to vertical (pressing from the top). By transitioning the button pressing direction to the vertical dimension, the device becomes much more convenient for one-handed use while maintaining the airless pump functionality.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the nozzle is formed perpendicular to the container body, then the structure is simple, but the cosmetic material rises and discharges to the outside causing splattering
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a curved or bent nozzle design instead of a straight perpendicular nozzle. The curved nozzle redirects the cosmetic material flow in a controlled manner, preventing it from shooting upward and splattering outside the container. This curvature modification effectively eliminates the harmful splattering effect while adding minimal structural complexity.
3Ease of operation
If a cosmetic tool is placed on and kept in a compartment with a discharge hole, then the tool is accessible, but there is a hygiene problem
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the cosmetic tool from the contaminated discharge hole compartment and places it in a separate, dedicated storage compartment. This separation removes the tool from the harmful environment near the discharge hole, eliminating the hygiene contamination risk while keeping the tool easily accessible through its own designated space.
4Measurement precision
If pressure is applied to the tube container, then the cosmetic material can be discharged easily, but the amount discharged varies making it difficult to dispense a predetermined amount
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates a mechanism that provides feedback on the amount of cosmetic material discharged. The airless pump system with a vertically pressed button allows for controlled, incremental dispensing where the user can observe and control the discharge amount, enabling precise measurement while maintaining ease of operation through the simple vertical pressing action.

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables precise and convenient one-handed dispensing of cosmetics without waste, while maintaining hygiene through the design of the inclined protruding portion and 'U'-shaped nozzle, and the integration of a makeup tool container.
Implementation Method 1
a button on which a pressing protrusion for vertically pressing the inclined protruding portion is formed such that when the button is pressed vertically, the pouch frame moves horizontally to actuate the airless pump
Implementation Method 2
a pouch container having an airless pump installed therein is installed inside the pouch frame

AI summary
The present invention relates to a vertically pressed compact container provided with a pouch container and, more particularly, to a vertically pressed compact container provided with a pouch container, in which: pouch frame is housed inside an outer container, a pouch container having an airless pump installed therein is installed inside the pouch frame, an inclined protruding portion is formed on the rear surface of the pouch frame, and a button on which a pressing protrusion for vertically pressing the inclined protruding portion is formed such that when the button is pressed vertically, the pouch frame moves horizontally to actuate the airless pump and can discharge a precise amount of cosmetics, thereby enabling one hand instead of both hands to be used to press the button vertically and easily discharge cosmetics. In addition, a nozzle that is coupled to an end of the pump to discharge cosmetics is formed in a laid-down "U" shape in order to be able to prevent cosmetics from shooting upward and splattering.
