FIG. 2 an assembled perspective view illustrating a configuration of the cosmetic powder container according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an assembled cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration of the cosmetic powder container according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a cosmetic powder container according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a lower case 100, a rubber container 200, a sealing member 300, and an upper case 400.
The lower case 100, which is coupled to a rubber container to be described later and supports the rubber container, is provided with a coupling groove 110 such that a coupling part 210 of the rubber container 200 can be coupled to an upper end thereof.
The back surface of the lower case 100 portion has a portion cut open such that the upper case 400 can be hinge-coupled and form a space, and the front surface is provided with a handle groove 120 such that a user can easily open the upper case 400.
Furthermore, the lower case 100 has a lower end thereof cut open such that a storage part 220 of the rubber container 200 can be exposed to the outside in a state of the rubber container 200 being coupled to an inner side thereof.
Meanwhile, at an inner side of the lower case 100 is coupled a sealing plate 500 which is disposed between the rubber container 200 and the sealing member 300 and seals a space between the rubber container 200 and the sealing member 300, wherein a bottom surface of the sealing plate 500 presses an upper end of the rubber container 200 and is coupled to an inner side of the lower case 100, thereby preventing the rubber container 200 from being separated to an upward direction.
Furthermore, at the sealing plate 500 is provided a hollow 510 at which a lower end of the sealing member 300 is combined fit such that contents stored in the rubber container 200 can be discharged through discharge holes 311 of the sealing member 300.
Furthermore, at an upper end of the front surface of the sealing plate 500 is provided a protrusion part 520 which is protrusively formed in an upward direction and fixes the upper case 400 such that the upper case 400 can be kept closed, wherein a fixation protrusion 521 coupled to a fixation groove 410 of the upper case 400 is formed at the end of the protrusion part 520.
The protrusion part 520 penetrates an insertion hole 320 of the sealing member 300 and an insertion groove 620 of the sealing cap 600 in a state of the upper case 400 being closed and is coupled to a fixation groove 410 of the upper case 400 through the fixation protrusion 521, thereby keeping the upper case 400 closed.
The rubber container 200, coupled to the lower case 100 and storing powder contents, is composed of a coupling part 210 which is coupled to a coupling groove 110 of the lower case 100 and a storage part 220 where contents are stored.
In the present invention, it is characterized in that the storage part 220 is exposed to the outside through an open lower end of the lower case 100, and is made of elastic material which is deformed when a user pressurizes a storage part 220. When a user pressurizes as rubbing the storage part 220, its shape is deformed and presses contents stored, and makes contents discharged in an extrusive manner. Due to this, when a user pressurizes the storage part 220, after opening the upper case 400 and separating a content application member (P) received in a receiving groove 310 from a receiving groove 310, the user can check contents being discharged through the discharge holes 311 with his/her eyes and discharge contents as needed for using, thereby providing user convenience.
The sealing member 300, which is fixedly installed at an inner side of the sealing plate 500, disposed at an upper portion of the rubber container 200 and close an open upper end of the rubber container 200, is provided with a receiving groove 310 such that a content application member (P) for applying contents onto user's skin is received at an upper end thereof, and formed with a multitude of discharge holes 311 at a bottom surface of the receiving groove 310 such that contents stored in the rubber container 200 can be discharged.
In the present invention, the content application member (P) is characterized to be formed in more thickness than the height of a space (S) formed by the receiving groove 310 and the sealing cap 600. Due to this, when the upper case 400 is closed, the content application member (P) is compressed by a mirror (M) equipped at an inner side of the upper case 400 and thereby the discharge holes 311 are closed; therefore, even though the rubber container 200 is pressed while being carried, it is possible to prevent contents from being discharge through the discharge holes 311. In other words, only in a state that the upper case 400 is opened for being used, the discharge holes 311 are opened and thereby contents are discharged.
Furthermore, an insertion hole 320 is formed at an front surface of the sealing member 300 such that the fixation protrusion 521 can be penetrated and inserted.
The upper case 400, which encases the content application member (P) and is hinge-coupled for being rotatable upwards and downward at a back surface of the lower case 100, is formed with a fixation groove 410 which is coupled to the fixation protrusion 521 in a state of being closed at an inner side of the front surface thereof.
At an inner side of the upper case 400 is coupled a sealing cap 600 which is closely contacted to an upper end of the sealing member 300 in a state of the upper case 400 being closed, and seals an open upper space of the receiving groove 310, wherein the sealing cap 600 is provided with a penetration hole 610 at a center part such that a mirror (M) equipped at an inner side of the upper case 400 can be penetrated and inserted, and is formed with an insertion groove 620 at the front surface thereof such that the fixation protrusion 521 can be penetrated and inserted.
The sealing cap 600 is fixed to an inner side of the upper case 400 such that an insertion groove 620, where the fixation protrusion 521 is inserted, can keep the directional nature when the upper case 400 is rotated to a downward direction. At an inner side of the upper case 400 is provided a rotation preventing groove 420 for preventing the sealing cap 600 from being rotated, and at the sealing cap is equipped a rotation preventing protrusion where the rotation preventing groove 420 is inserted.
Hereafter, referring FIGS. 4 to 6, a using method of the cosmetic powder container according to an exemplary embodiment will be explained.
Firstly, as illustrated in FIG. 4, to use contents stored in a rubber container 200, a user rotates to an upward direction and opens an upper case 400, and then separates a content application member (P) received in a receiving groove 310 from the receiving groove 310.
Next, as illustrated in FIG. 5, when the user pressurizes a storage part 220 of the rubber container 200 with a hand, the shape of the storage part 220 will be changed. Due to this, contents will be discharged in an extrusive manner through discharge holes 311. At this time, it is possible for the user to check the contents being discharged through the discharge holes 311 and to discharge the contents; therefore, the user can discharge contents as needed by pressurizing the storage part 220.
As in the above, when contents are discharged onto an upper surface of the receiving groove 310 through the discharge holes 311, it is possible, as illustrated in FIG. 6, for the user to put the contents which are discharged on the upper surface of the receiving groove 310 by means of the content application member (P) and apply the contents onto the user's skin.
As previously described in the above, the presently described embodiments are configured in that, powder contents are discharged through the discharge holes 311 when opening the upper case 400 and softly pressurizing as rubbing the rubber container in a state of an upper case being opened, such that it is possible to easily discharge powder contents without erecting the container up after flipping the container over. Additionally, it is possible for the user to discharge contents as needed while checking the contents being discharged with one's eyes, thereby providing user convenience.
As described above, optimal embodiments have been disclosed in the drawings and the specification. Although specific terms have been used herein, these are only intended to describe the present embodiments and are not intended to limit the meanings of the terms or to restrict the scope of the accompanying claims. Accordingly, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and other equivalent embodiments are possible from the above embodiments.
