SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In light of conventional disadvantages such as those described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a bar-shaped cosmetic housing container that can be easily assembled and in which a dish member does not easily bend.


To achieve the above-described object, a bar-shaped cosmetic housing container according to a first aspect of the present invention is characterized by including: a dish member that holds a bar-shaped cosmetic and has an engaging portion in a lower portion; an inner cylinder member that has a dish-member guide groove with which the engaging portion of the dish member is engaged and a body-member slit groove with which a rotation control portion that is provided in a body member is engaged; the body member that has a guidance groove with which the engaging portion is engaged and has the rotation control portion that is engaged with the body portion slit groove on an inner peripheral surface thereof; a screw member in which a screw groove is formed on an inner peripheral surface, the engaging portion being engaged with the screw groove and the dish member being moved in an up/down direction; and a skirt member that is provided in a lower end portion of the body member. The dish-member guide groove has a crank-shaped bent portion in a lower portion thereof and is formed to reach a lower end portion of the inner cylinder member. The body-member slit groove has a sloped portion that slopes in a circumferential direction in a lower portion thereof. When the screw member is rotated and the dish member is raised, the engaging portion of the dish member comes into contact with the bent portion, and the inner cylinder member rises synchronously with the dish member. In addition, when the rotation control portion moves to the sloped portion, the inner cylinder member is rotated in the circumferential direction by the sloped portion. The guidance groove and the dish-member guide groove are in a substantially overlapping state. As a result, only the dish member rises.


A bar-shaped cosmetic housing container according to a second aspect is characterized in that a cap body that freely opens and closes is provided in an upper end portion of the body member. The cap body is urged in a direction in which a cap closes by an urging means.


A bar-shaped cosmetic housing container according to a third aspect is characterized in that the urging means is configured by a pair of locking pieces that are formed in an upper portion of the body member and the cap body, and an annular elastic body that is locked by the pair of locking pieces.


A bar-shaped cosmetic housing container according to a fourth aspect is characterized in that a slip preventing mechanism is provided on a surface of the screw member.


A bar-shaped cosmetic housing container according to a fifth aspect is characterized in that a locking portion that further extends in the circumferential direction from a lower end portion of the sloped portion is formed in the body-member slit groove. When the dish member is raised, the rotation control portion enters the locking portion.


Effects of the Invention

As is clear from the description above, the present invention achieves the effects listed below:


(1) In the invention according to the first aspect, the dish-member guide groove of which the lower end portion thereof reaches the lower end portion of the inner cylinder member and has the crank-shaped bent portion is formed in the inner cylinder member. Therefore, the engaging portion of the dish member can be easily engaged (inserted) with the dish-member guide groove.


Consequently, assembly can be facilitated.


(2) The engaging portion of the dish member can be inserted from the lower end portion of the dish-member guide groove. Therefore, a notch or the like is not required to be formed in the dish member. Rigidity of the dish member can be ensured. The dish member can be made difficult to bend.


Consequently, the bar-shaped cosmetic can be held without being affected by bending of the dish member.


(3) The inventions according to the second aspect and the third aspect also achieve effects similar to (1) and (2), described above.


(4) The invention according to the fourth aspect also achieves effects similar to (1) and (2), described above. In addition, the screw member can be easily rotated.


(5) The invention according to the fifth aspect also achieves effects similar to (1) and (2), described above. In addition, because the locking portion that further extends in the circumferential direction from the lower end portion of the sloped portion of the body-member slit groove is provided, even should load be applied downward from an upper portion after the dish member is moved near an upper dead point, the rotation control portion comes into contact with the locking portion. The rotation control portion moving to the sloped portion, the inner cylinder member rotating, an operation pin getting caught, and operation becoming poor can be prevented.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The present invention will hereinafter be described in detail based on embodiments for carrying out the present invention shown in the drawings.


According to a first embodiment for carrying out the present invention shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 10, reference number 1 represents a bar-shaped cosmetic housing container (referred to, hereafter, as a “housing container”) of the present invention that houses a bar-shaped cosmetic 2 such as lipstick. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the housing container 1 is configured by: a dish member 4 that holds the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 and has an engaging portion 3 (such as an engaging pin) in a lower portion; an inner cylinder member 8 that has a dish-member guide groove 5 with which the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is engaged (inserted) and a body-member slit groove 7 with which a rotation control portion 10 (such as a rotation control pin) of a body member 6 is engaged (inserted); the body member 6 that has a guidance groove 9 with which the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is engaged (inserted) and has the rotation control portion 10 that is engaged (inserted) with the body portion slit groove 7 on an inner peripheral surface thereof; a screw member 12 in which a screw groove 11 is formed on an inner peripheral surface, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 being inserted into the screw groove 11 and the dish member 4 being moved in an up/down direction; a skirt member 13 that is provided in a lower end portion of the body member 6; and a cap body 14 that is provided in an upper end portion of the body member 6.


As shown in FIG. 2, according to the present embodiment, the dish member 4 is composed of resin and formed into a circular cylindrical shape. A substantially horizontal partition wall 15 is provided in a portion inside the dish member 4 that is towards an upper end portion. An upper portion space of the partition wall 15 serves as a bar-shaped cosmetic holding portion 16 that holds the bar-shaped cosmetic 2.


The engaging portion 3 is provided near a lower end portion of an outer peripheral wall of the dish member 4. According to the present embodiment, the engaging portion 3 is a substantially circular columnar protrusion.


As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, according to the present embodiment, the inner cylinder member 8 is composed of metal and is a pipe-shaped member that covers an outer peripheral portion of the dish member 4. The inner cylinder member 8 is a substantially circular cylindrical member of which an upper portion is obliquely cut. The dish-member guide groove 5 and the body-member slit groove 7 are formed on a side surface of the inner cylinder member 8.


In the dish-member guide groove 5, an upper end portion of a vertical portion 5a thereof is positioned in a substantially intermediate portion of the inner cylinder member 8 in the up/down direction. A crank-shaped bent portion 17 that has a horizontal portion 17a is formed near a lower end portion of the inner cylinder member 8. A lower end portion of the dish-member guide groove 5 is formed so as to reach the lower end portion of the inner cylinder member 8.


As a result of the dish-member guide groove 5 being formed in this manner, when the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 engages with the dish-member guide groove 5, the engaging portion can engage from the lower end portion of the dish-member guide groove 5 (a slit in the inner cylinder member 8). Assembly can be easily performed without the dish member 4 and the inner cylinder member 8 being required to be bent. In addition, a notch or the like is not required to be provided in the dish member 4. Rigidity of the dish member 4 can be ensured.


Furthermore, in the dish-member guide groove 5, the lower end portion thereof reaches the lower end portion (lower end surface) of the inner cylinder member 8. A portion of the outer periphery of the inner cylinder member 8 is cut. Therefore, when the inner cylindrical member 8 is inserted into the body member 6, the lower portion of the inner cylinder member 8 bends and decreases in diameter, and the rotation control portion 10 can be inserted into the body-member slit groove 7.


For example, the dish-member guide groove 5 includes a crank-shaped bent portion 17. The bent portion 17 is formed such that the engaging portion 3 is positioned in the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17 at normal times (when the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 and the dish member 4 are positioned in lower limit positions).


In the description according to the present embodiment, the body-member slit groove 7 is provided in a portion that opposes the dish-member guide groove 5. An upper end portion is positioned further above the upper end portion of the dish-member guide groove 5 in a substantially intermediate portion of the inner cylinder member 8 in the up/down direction. The body-member slit groove 7 extends substantially vertically downward. A sloped portion 18 that slopes in a circumferential direction is formed in a lower portion of the body-member slit groove 7. A lower end portion of the sloped portion 18 is formed so as to be positioned near the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17.


In the description according to the present embodiment, the rotation control portion 10 is inserted in the body-member slit groove 7. In a normal state, the rotation control portion 10 is positioned near a substantially upper end portion of the body-member slit groove 7.


As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, according to the present embodiment, the body member 6 is composed of resin and is a member that covers the outer periphery of the inner cylinder member 8.


For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the body member 6 is formed into a substantially circular cylindrical shape in which an upper portion has a slightly large diameter. The guidance groove 9 that reaches a lower end portion of the body member 6 is formed on an outer peripheral portion of the body member 6. According to the present embodiment, the guidance groove 9 includes, in a lower portion thereof, a crank portion 19 that is bent into a crank-shape. A lower end portion of the guidance groove 9 (the crank portion 19) reaches a lower end surface of the body member 6. The engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 can be inserted from this slit.


A lower end surface of the guidance groove 9 reaches the lower end portion of the body member 6. In addition, the lower end portion of the dish-member guide groove 5 of the inner cylinder member 8, described above, reaches the lower end portion of the inner cylinder member 8. Therefore, as a result of the body member 6 bending in a direction in which an inner diameter slightly widens, and the inner cylinder member 8 bending in a direction in which an outer diameter slightly narrows, the rotation control portion 10 can be easily inserted into the body-member slit groove 7.


A cap-body attaching portion 20 for attaching the cap body 14 is formed in a large diameter portion in the upper portion of the body member 6. According to the present embodiment, one locking piece 21 is provided near the cap-body attaching portion 20 in the upper portion of the body member 6.


In the description according to the present embodiment, the screw member 12 is formed into a stepped circular cylindrical shape in which an outer diameter in a lower portion is a small diameter. The screw groove 11 is formed on an inner peripheral surface of the screw member 12. The screw member 12 is a member that covers the outer periphery of the body member 6, excluding the large diameter portion.


The engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is inserted into the screw groove 11. As a result of the screw member 12 being rotated, the engaging portion 3 is pushed upward by the screw groove 11, and the dish member 4 is lifted upward.


In the description according to the present embodiment, the skirt member 13 is formed into a bottomed circular cylindrical shape. The skirt member 13 is attached in a state in which the lower end portion of the body member 6 is inserted inside the skirt member 13. Here, an outer periphery of the small diameter portion in the lower portion of the screw member 12 is covered by the upper portion of the skirt member 13.


As a result of the skirt member 13 being provided, even when the lower portion of the body member 6 is cut as a result of the guidance groove 9, bending of the body member 6 can be suppressed.


In the cap body 14, an attaching piece 22 that is composed of resin and attached to the cap-body attaching portion 20 is formed. The attaching piece 22 is pivotally supported to the cap-body attaching portion so as to be capable of rotating by a shaft 23. As a result of the cap body 14 rotating around the shaft 23, the opening in the upper portion of the body member 6 is opened and closed.


In addition, on a bottom surface near the attaching piece 22 of the cap body 14, another locking piece 24 that forms a pair with the one locking piece 21 is formed. According to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, an urging means 25 that urges the cap body 14 in a closing direction is configured by this pair of locking pieces 21 and 24, and an annular elastic body 26 that is locked by the pair of locking pieces 21 and 24. The elastic body 26 stretches when the cap body 14 is opened, and applies an urging force to the cap body 14 in the closing direction.


Movements of the dish member 4, the inner cylinder member 8, and the body member 6 when the housing container 1 of the invention of the present application is used will be described. When the engaging portion 3 is in a position of a lower dead point, the state is such that the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is positioned in the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17 of the dish-member guide groove 5 and the rotation control portion 10 is inserted into the body-member slit groove 7. Therefore, the state is such that the inner cylinder member 8 does not rotate in relation to the body member 6, and the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 does not move from the horizontal portion 17a.


As shown in FIG. 9, as a result of the screw member 12 being rotated, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is lifted along the screw groove 11 and the dish member 4 is raised. At this time, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is inserted into the guidance groove 9 of the body member 6. Therefore, the dish member 4 moves upward without rotating.


In addition, in the inner cylinder member 8, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is in contact with the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17. Therefore, the dish member 4 lifts the inner cylinder member 8, and the dish member 4 and the inner cylinder member 8 are synchronously raised. The inner cylinder member 8 is simply merely lifted by the engaging portion 3. In addition, the rotation control portion 10 of the body member 6 is inserted into the body-member slit groove 7. Therefore, the inner cylinder member 8 moves upward without rotating.


At this time, the inner cylinder member 8 lifts the cap body 14 and opens the upper end portion of the body member 6.


When the screw member 12 is continuously rotated and the rotation control portion 10 moves to the sloped portion 18 of the body-member slit groove 7, the rotation control portion 10 moves into the sloped portion 18 of the inner cylinder member 8. As a result, the inner cylinder member 8 slightly rotates and reaches an upper dead point.


Then, rising of the inner cylinder member 8 stops. In addition, a vertical portion 9a of the guidance groove 9 and the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5 substantially overlap. In accompaniment, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 moves from the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17 to a lower end portion (lower dead point) of the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5.


As described above, when the inner cylinder member 8 and the dish member 4 synchronously move upward, as a result of being pressed by the upper end portion of the inner cylinder member 8, the cap body 14 rotates against the urging force of the urging means 25 and enters an open state. In the state in which the inner cylinder member 8 is positioned at the upper dead point, the cap body 14 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the inner cylinder member 8 and maintains the open state without affecting the bar-shaped cosmetic 2.


As a result of the screw member 12 being rotated in this state, the inner cylinder member 8 remains at this position, and only the dish member 4 rises. As shown in FIG. 10, the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 is exposed.


After use, when the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 is housed, the screw member 12 is rotated in a reverse direction and the dish member 4 is lowered. When the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 reaches the lower end portion (bent portion 17) of the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5, the inner cylinder member 8 is pressed downward by the engaging portion 3. The inner cylinder member 8 starts to move downward synchronously with the dish member 4. Then, the inner cylinder member 8 is rotated by the sloped portion 18 of the body-member slit groove 7. Subsequently, the inner cylinder member 8 moves to a lower limit position without rotating and returns to the normal state.


The cap body 14 is rotated by the urging means 25 when the inner cylinder member 8 moves into the body member 6, and seals the upper portion opening of the body portion 6.


OTHER EMBODIMENTS FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Next, other embodiments for carrying out the present invention, shown in FIG. 11 to FIG. 20, will be described. Regarding the descriptions of the other embodiments for carrying out the present invention, constituent sections that are identical to those according to the above-described first embodiment for carrying out the present invention are given the same reference numbers. Redundant descriptions are omitted.


A second embodiment for carrying out the present invention, shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, mainly differs from the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention in that an urging means 25A that urges the cap body 14 by a pair of arm insertion holes 27 and a torsion spring 28 is configured. The pair of arm insertion holes 27 are formed in the cap body 14 and the body member 6. Arms of the torsion spring 28 are respectively inserted into the pair of arm insertion holes 27. In addition, the torsion spring 28 is pivotally supported by the shaft 23. In a housing container 1A that uses such an urging means 25A as well, working effects similar to those of the above-described housing container according to the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention can be achieved.


A third embodiment for carrying out the present invention, shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, mainly differs from the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention in that a skirt member 13A and a screw member 12A are used. In the skirt member 13A, a length of a portion that is exposed outside is increased. In the screw member 12A, a length of a portion that is exposed outside is shortened. In addition, a slip preventing mechanism 29 is provided on the surface of the screw member 12A that is exposed outside. In such a housing container 1B as well, working effects similar to those of the above-described housing container according to the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention can be achieved. Furthermore, the skirt member 13A can be fitted in the palm of a hand, and the screw member 12A can be rotated by a finger. The housing container 1B can be easily operated with one hand.


In addition, as a result of the slip preventing mechanism 29 being provided, the screw member 12A can be easily rotated even with one hand.


That is, a drawing-out and open/close operation (one-click) can be performed by one hand. Usage can be further facilitated.


Here, according to the present embodiment, the slip preventing mechanism 29 is provided as that which has straight knurling. However, for example, the slip preventing mechanism 29 may be provided through application of a diamond-knurling pattern, decoration, engraving, or anti-slip coating. Such a slip preventing mechanism 29 can also be provided on the housing containers according to the first and second embodiments.


A fourth embodiment for carrying out the present invention, shown in FIG. 15 and FIG. 20, mainly differs from the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention in that a body-member slit groove 7A that has a locking portion 30 that further extends from the lower end portion of the sloped portion 18 in the circumferential direction is formed so as to be continuous with the sloped portion 18, and an inner cylinder member 8A in which a dish-member guide groove 5A is formed is provided. The dish-member guide groove 5A has a bent portion 17A in which a dish-member sloped portion 31 is formed so as to be continuous with the horizontal portion 17a. In such a housing container 1C as well, working effects similar to those of the above-described housing container according to the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention can be achieved.


Here, the guidance groove 9 according to the present embodiment is preferably formed such that the lower end portion reaches the lower end portions of the inner cylinder member 8A and the body member 6. As a result of the guidance groove 9 being formed in this manner, the engaging portion 3 can be easily inserted into the dish-member guide groove 5A and the guidance groove 9.


As a result of the locking portion 30 that substantially horizontally extends in the circumferential direction from the lower end portion of the sloped portion 18 of the body-member slit groove 7A being formed, when the dish member 4 is raised, the protrusion-shaped rotation control portion 10 enters the locking portion 30 as a result of the working of the dish-member sloped portion 31. Therefore, even when force from above is applied to the inner cylinder member 8A and the like in the state in which the rotation control portion 10 is inside the locking portion 30, the locking portion 30 can receive the load. The rotation control portion 10 can be prevented from entering the sloped portion 18.


Therefore, the inner cylinder member 8A rotating along the sloped portion 18, the rotation control portion 10 being sandwiched between the dish-member guide groove 5A and the guidance groove 9, and up/down movement of the rotation control portion 10 being obstructed can be prevented.


Here, according to the present embodiment, the urging means 25A similar to that according to the above-described second embodiment is used.


Movements of the dish member 4, the inner cylinder member 8A, the body member 6, and the like when the housing container 1C such as this is used will be described. When the engaging portion 3 is in the position of the lower dead point, the state is such that the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is positioned in the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17 of the dish-member guide groove 5A and the rotation control portion 10 is inserted into the body-member slit groove 7A. Therefore, the state is such that the inner cylinder member 8A does not rotate in relation to the body member 6, and the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 does not move from the horizontal portion 17a.


As a result of the screw member 12 being rotated, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is lifted along the screw groove 11 and the dish member 4 is raised. At this time, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is inserted into the guidance groove 9 of the body member 6. Therefore, the dish member 4 moves upward without rotating.


In addition, in the inner cylinder member 8A, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 is in contact with the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17. Therefore, the dish member 4 lifts the inner cylinder member 8A, and the dish member 4 and the inner cylinder member 8A are synchronously raised. The inner cylinder member 8A is simply merely lifted by the engaging portion 3. In addition, the rotation control portion 10 of the body member 6 is inserted into the body-member slit groove 7A. Therefore, the inner cylinder member 8A moves upward without rotating.


At this time, the inner cylinder member 8A lifts the cap body 14 and opens the upper end portion of the body member 6.


When the screw member 12 is continuously rotated and the rotation control portion 10 moves to the sloped portion 18 of the body-member slit groove 7A, the rotation control portion 10 moves into the sloped portion 18 of the inner cylinder member 8A. As a result, the inner cylinder member 8A slightly rotates and reaches the upper dead point of the inner cylinder member 8A.


Then, rising of the inner cylinder member 8A stops. In addition, the vertical portion 9a of the guidance groove 9 and the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5A substantially overlap. In accompaniment, the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 moves from the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17 to the lower end portion (lower dead point) of the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5A.


As described above, when the inner cylinder member 8A and the dish member 4 synchronously move upward, as a result of being pressed by the upper end portion of the inner cylinder member 8A, the cap body 14 rotates against the urging force of the urging means 25A and enters an open state. In the state in which the inner cylinder member 8A is positioned at the upper dead point, the cap body 14 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the inner cylinder member 8A and maintains the open state without affecting the bar-shaped cosmetic 2.


As a result of the screw member 12 being rotated in this state, the inner cylinder member 8A remains at this position, and only the dish member 4 rises. As shown in FIG. 20, the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 is exposed.


When the dish member 4 rises to the vicinity of the upper dead point, the engaging portion 3 enters the dish-member sloped portion 31 that is formed in the dish-member guide groove 5A. In accompaniment, the dish member 4 and the inner cylinder member 8A slightly rotate in the circumferential direction. The inner cylinder member 8A cannot move upward any further as a result of the rotation control portion 10. Therefore, the inner cylinder member 8A rotates in the circumferential direction without moving upward.


Then, the rotation control portion 10 enters the locking portion 30 that extends in the circumferential direction from the lower end portion of the sloped portion 18. The rotation control portion 10 and the locking portion 30 are in an engaged state.


Meanwhile, the engaging portion 3 also enters the horizontal portion 17a of the bent portion 17A, and the dish portion 4 also reaches the upper dead point.


In this state, even when force from above is applied to the inner cylinder member 8A and the like, because the locking portion 30 and the rotation control portion 10 are in a state of contact in the up/down direction, the locking portion 30 can receive the load from above. The rotation control portion 10 entering the sloped portion 18 can be prevented.


Therefore, the inner cylinder member 8A rotating along the sloped portion 18, the rotation control portion 10 being sandwiched between the dish-member guide groove 5A and the guidance groove 9, and up/down movement of the rotation control portion 10 being obstructed can be prevented.


After use, when the bar-shaped cosmetic 2 is housed, the screw member 12 is rotated in the reverse direction and the dish member 4 is lowered. When the engaging portion 3 of the dish member 4 reaches the lower end portion (horizontal portion 17a) of the vertical portion 5a of the dish-member guide groove 5A, the inner cylinder member 8A is pressed downward by the engaging portion 3. The inner cylinder member 8A starts to move downward synchronously with the dish member 4. Then, the inner cylinder member 8A is rotated by the sloped portion 18 of the body-member slit groove 7A. Subsequently, the inner cylinder member 8A moves to a lower limit position without rotating and returns to the normal state.


The cap body 14 is rotated by the urging means 25A when the inner cylinder member 8A moves into the body member 6, and seals the upper portion opening of the body portion 6.
