Abstract

A cosmetics container according to the present invention is capable of preventing alien substances from being introduced into the discharge port by arranging the discharge port through which the cosmetics are discharged and the applying member for applying the cosmetics on a skin, which are located independent of each other. In addition, the cosmetics container according to the present invention is capable of preventing a space from being formed inside the discharge port and preventing air or alien substances from being introduced into a vessel containing the cosmetics since the piston is only moved upward by manipulation of a user while preventing the piston from being moved downward.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A cosmetics container comprising:
a discharge head ( 200 ) including a discharge port ( 210 ) and an applying member which are formed independent of each other;
an upper body ( 100 ) which is combined and assembled to the discharge head ( 200 ) and contains cosmetics;
a piston ( 325 ) which is disposed in the upper body ( 100 ) and pressurizes and discharges the contained cosmetics to the discharge port ( 210 ); and
a lower body ( 300 ) which is combined to the upper body ( 100 ) and discharges the cosmetics by moving the piston ( 325 ) to the discharge port ( 210 ) through rotation relative to the upper body ( 100 ),
wherein the lower body ( 300 ) includes:
a lower shell ( 302 ) formed therein with an empty space;
a guide shaft ( 310 ) formed in the empty space of the lower shell ( 302 );
a screw cap ( 330 ) combined and fixed to the upper body ( 302 );
a screw shaft ( 320 ) whose upper side is fixed to the piston ( 325 ) and whose lower side is assembled with the guide shaft ( 310 ), wherein the screw shaft ( 320 ) is horizontally rotated along with the guide shaft ( 310 ) and is axially relatively moved along the guide shaft ( 310 ) to move the piston ( 325 ) upward and the screw shaft ( 3200 has axial threads ( 324 ) formed in the circumferential surface; and
an interference part ( 335 ) which has cap threads ( 334 ) formed to cause mutual interference with the axial threads ( 324 ), is formed in the screw cap ( 330 ), raises the screw shaft ( 320 ) by mutual engagement of the axial threads ( 324 ) and the cap threads ( 334 ) when the upper body ( 100 ) and the lower body ( 300 ) are forward rotated relative to each other, and releases the mutual engagement of the axial threads ( 324 ) and the cap threads ( 334 ) while being bent by the mutual interference when the upper body ( 100 ) and the lower body ( 300 ) are backward rotated relative to each other.

2. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the applying member is at least one of a brush and a sponge.

3. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the applying member is installed to be detached from the discharge head ( 200 ).

4. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the applying member is disposed in the opposite side to the discharge port ( 210 ).

5. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the discharge head includes:
a head base ( 530 ) which is combined and fixed to the upper body ( 100 ) and guides the cosmetics pressurized through the piston ( 325 ) of the upper body ( 100 ); and
a head cover ( 550 ) which is combined to the head base ( 530 ) and has the applying member and the discharge port ( 210 ) formed in the outer side of the head cover ( 550 ),
wherein a head base passage ( 534 ) and a head cover passage ( 554 ) guiding the cosmetics pressurized in the upper body ( 100 ) to the discharge port ( 210 ) are formed in the head base ( 530 ) and the head cover ( 550 ), respectively, and are interconnected.

6. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the interference part ( 335 ) is formed in an L-like shape and is deformed to be bent outward in the radial direction of the screw cap ( 330 ) in the backward rotation.

7. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the interference part ( 335 ) is formed in a cantilever shape in the inner side of the screw cap ( 330 ).

8. The cosmetic container according to claim 1 , wherein the piston ( 325 ) is moved to the discharge port ( 210 ) through mutual interference by engagement of the axial threads ( 324 ) and the cap threads ( 334 ) when the lower body ( 300 ) is forward rotated relative to the upper body ( 100 ), and
wherein the screw axis ( 320 ) is idle rotated in place as the cap threads ( 334 ) is separated from the axial threads ( 324 ) by the bending deformation of the interference part ( 335 ) when the lower body ( 300 ) is backward rotated relative to the upper body ( 100 ).
