Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to an application container for liquid cosmetics such as nail polish.

"Prior Art" Conventionally, there is a coating container of this type as shown in FIG. 3, for example.

First, a capped cylindrical inner stopper 3 with a valve hole 2 is inserted into the upper opening of the container body 1 that stores the liquid cosmetics.
The lower part (large diameter cylinder part) of the stepped cylindrical holder 4 located above the inner stopper is fitted and fixed by caulking or the like.

A valve element 5 that opens and closes the valve hole 2 by moving vertically in the figure is housed within the inner stopper 3. The valve stem 5a of the valve body passes through the inside of the valve hole 2 and projects largely above the inner plug, and is placed between the tip of the valve stem and the upper surface of the inner plug, so that the valve body is always moved upward, that is, in the valve closing direction. A biasing valve spring 6 is interposed.

The middle part of a rod-shaped liquid suction member 7 for applying liquid cosmetics is fitted and held in the small-diameter cylindrical part at the top of the holder so as to be able to move up and down, and the lower end surface of the member is in contact with the upper surface of the valve body. has been done.

Therefore, when the container is used, after the container body 1 is inverted, the liquid suction member 7 is pushed into the holder 4 by pressing it against human skin or the like. As a result, the valve body 5 in contact with the liquid suction member is pushed into the inner stopper 3 and the valve hole 2 is opened. As a result, the liquid cosmetic in the body of the container flows out of the body through the valve hole 2 and is absorbed by the liquid suction member, making it possible to apply the liquid cosmetic.

"Problems to be Solved by the Invention" In the conventional coating container described above, the valve stem 5a of the valve body 5 that opens and closes the valve hole 2 protrudes greatly upward from the inner stopper 3, and the upper end surface of the valve stem absorbs liquid. Since the valve hole 2 was structured so that it was in full contact with the lower end surface of the raising member 7,
As the distance from the tip to the tip of the liquid suction member 7 increases, the exposed area of the liquid suction member, that is, the surface area that comes in contact with the liquid cosmetics decreases, and when the valve is opened for the first time of use or after long-term storage, the liquid cosmetics become liquid. There was a problem in that it took time for the stain to reach the tip of the suction member, resulting in a lack of quick response.

The present invention was devised in consideration of these circumstances, and aims to provide a liquid cosmetic application container that is highly responsive and convenient.

"Means for Solving the Problems" In order to achieve the above object, the liquid cosmetic application container according to the present invention includes a container body 10 with a neck part 16 erected, and a bottom with a valve hole 17 on the inner surface of the mouth neck part. wall 1
8 Inner stopper 1 fitted with peripheral wall 19 standing up from the periphery
1, the valve head 20 is positioned below the bottom wall of the inner plug so that it can freely move up and down to open and close the valve hole, and the valve stem 21 that stands up from the surface of the valve head is loosely inserted into the valve hole to open the inner plug. A valve body 12 that protrudes inwardly and upwardly and has an upper portion of the valve stem formed in a cylindrical shape with a plurality of slits 22.
Then, the valve spring 13 is housed in the inner stopper by urging the valve body in the valve closing direction, and the lower part of the cylinder wall 23 is fitted onto the outer surface of the mouth and neck, and the upper part of the cylinder wall is raised above the mouth and neck. and a rod-shaped liquid suction member 15 whose intermediate portion is vertically movably inserted into the upper part of the cylinder wall and whose lower end is fitted into the upper part of the valve stem. do.

"Function" At the beginning of use or after long-term storage, for example, after turning the container body 10 upside down from the state shown in FIG.
When the tip of the rod-shaped liquid suction member 15 is pressed against the human skin A, etc., the liquid suction member 15 and the valve body 12 are moved against the holder 14 and the center against the biasing force of the valve spring 13, as shown in FIG. Move upwards relative to the stopper 11 and open the valve hole 17.

As a result, the liquid cosmetics in the container body 10 flows out from the valve hole 17 and is absorbed by the liquid suction member 15, making it possible to apply the liquid cosmetics.

At this time, the upper part of the valve stem 21 of the valve body 12 is formed into a cylindrical shape with a plurality of slits 22 and is fitted to the lower end of the liquid suction member 15 to reduce the contact area with the member as much as possible. Therefore, when the valve is opened as described above,
A large amount of the flowing liquid cosmetic comes into contact with the entire lower end of the liquid suction member, and the liquid cosmetic quickly penetrates into the tip of the member.

After application, if the container body 10 is lifted to make the liquid suction member 15 free, the valve body etc. will move downward with respect to the inner stopper etc. by the biasing force of the valve spring 13.
Closing the valve hole 17 is self-evident.

``Example'' An example of the present invention will be described below based on the accompanying drawings.

In FIG. 1, 10 is a container body, 11 is a bottomed cylindrical inner stopper, 12 is a valve body, 14 is a stepped cylindrical holder, and 15 is a rod-shaped liquid suction member made of felt.

The container body 10 has a neck part 16 erected from the upper end of a body part 24. Inside the body, a plurality of steel balls (not shown) for preventing the cosmetic from clumping together with the liquid cosmetic are housed.

The inner plug 11 has a valve hole 17 on the inner surface of the mouth and neck part 16.
A peripheral wall 19 that stands up from the periphery of the bottom wall 18 is fitted. An outward flange 25 is attached to the upper outer edge of the peripheral wall 19, and the outward flange 25 engages with the top surface of the mouth and neck portion 16.

The valve body 12 is configured such that the valve head 20 is freely movable up and down to open and close the valve hole, and the valve head 20 is positioned below the bottom wall of the inner plug, and the valve stem 21, which stands up from the surface of the valve head, is loosely inserted into the valve hole. The valve stem is made to protrude upward into the inner plug, and the upper part of the valve stem is formed into a cylindrical shape with a plurality of slits 22.

In the illustrated example, the valve rod 21 is formed separately from the valve head 20 and has an enlarged diameter at the upper part, into which the lower end of a liquid suction member 15, which will be described later, is fitted. A ring-shaped spring receiver 26 is attached to the upper end surface of the valve stem.

A valve spring 13 is interposed between the spring receiver 26 and the inner stopper bottom wall 18, which biases the valve body 12 in the valve closing direction.

The holder 14 has a cylindrical wall 23 with a large diameter portion 23a.
are formed in the intermediate diameter portion 23b and the small diameter portion 23c,
The inner surface of the large diameter portion 23a is screwed into the outer surface of the mouth and neck portion 16. At this time, the downwardly facing step part 27 on the inner surface of the large diameter part holds the outwardly facing flange 25 of the inner stopper between it and the top surface of the neck part 16.

The intermediate diameter portion 23b and the small diameter portion 23c are erected above the mouth and neck. A cylindrical auxiliary liquid suction member 28 made of urethane is fitted into the intermediate diameter portion 23b.

The rod-shaped liquid suction member 15 has an intermediate portion inserted into the small diameter portion 23c of the holder so as to be vertically movable.

In the figure, 29 is a cap, and 30 is an auxiliary cap that fits inside the cap to prevent drying. In addition, each part is molded and manufactured using synthetic resin material as appropriate.

Therefore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG.
The valve body 12 is moved up and down by the rod-shaped liquid suction member 15.
The valve opens and closes, and when the valve is opened, liquid cosmetics quickly permeate both the rod-shaped and cylindrical liquid suction members 15 and 25.

"Effects of the Invention" As explained above, according to the present invention, the upper part of the valve stem of the valve body is formed into a cylindrical shape with a plurality of slits, and the lower end of the liquid suction member 15 is fitted into the upper part of the valve stem. As a result, the exposed area of the lower end of the member can be increased as much as possible, and when the valve is opened when the container is in use, a large amount of liquid cosmetics comes into contact with the entire lower end of the liquid suction member, thus preventing it from reaching the tip of the member. To obtain a liquid cosmetic application container that allows liquid cosmetics to quickly permeate and has high responsiveness.
