The present application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-0131311, filed Oct. 4, 2021, the entire contents of which is incorporated herein for all purposes by this reference.
The present disclosure relates to a cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function and, more particularly, to a cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function, which enables to separately accommodate powder or liquid first and second cosmetic contents in a cap and container, respectively, and allows the first and second cosmetic contents to mix at the time desired by a consumer or user (before using the cosmetics) to use.
In general, there are cosmetics that are manufactured and used as single-content products, and cosmetics that are manufactured as multi-content products containing two different contents and supplied to consumers in a state of being stored separately from each other, and then mixed and used at a time desired by the consumer.
In other words, if different types of cosmetic contents are mixed in advance and distributed, ingredients of the mixed cosmetic contents may be degraded in the distribution process due to internal chemical reactions, or the efficacy may be significantly reduced.
There are cases where, after storing two different types of cosmetic contents separately in two respective containers, a user transfers the content stored in one container to another container and mixes the two contents together, but this has a problem in that it is inconvenient.
Accordingly, a cosmetic mixing container having a structure in which two types of cosmetic contents may be mixed with the help of a user's hand after being stored together in a separated state in one container has been devised and used in the related art to solve the above-mentioned problem of inconvenience.
However, as described above, even in the method where different types of cosmetic contents are stored separately in the distribution process and mixed just before use, the user has to take an additional action to mix the different types of cosmetic contents so that the contents are mixed together, which is troublesome.
That is, as shown in
At the lower discharge port of the dip tube 6, a sealing cap 8 is coupled as shown in
When the consumer wants to use the product, the dropper 10 may be separated from the cosmetic container and lifted as shown in
However, in the above-described cosmetic container with a different content mixing function, depending on the coupling strength with which the sealing cap 8 is press-fitted to the discharge port, the sealing cap 8 may not be separated even when in contact with the brush 2, which causes a problem and inconvenience in that the brush 2 needs to be lifted from the container to be separated.
Moreover, since the connection structure of the dip tube 6 and the pumping part 4 is a concave-convex coupling, when the pumping part 4 is pressurized while the sealing cap 8 is not separated, the first cosmetic content flows out to the concave-convex coupling portion, making the container 12 dirty, and there are other problems such as causing inconvenience to the user.
Accordingly, the present disclosure has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the related art, and the present disclosure is intended to provide a cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function, which prevents unintentional mixing of different cosmetic contents, allows mixing of different cosmetic contents with a simple action without removing the cap of the cosmetic container from the container when mixing different cosmetic contents, and enables easy pumping of the cosmetic mixture.
In order to achieve the above objective, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided a cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function, the cosmetic container cap including: a body part 102 in which a female fastening portion 102b is formed below an upper open-type chamber 102a where an accommodation space is formed to accommodate a first cosmetic content A of liquid or powder so as to be fastened to a male fastening portion 204 formed to be exposed in a container 202, and having a through opening 102c formed to extend a predetermined length downward from the chamber 102a; a pressing part 104 that is in close contact with an inner diameter surface of the chamber 102a to secure a space inside the chamber 102a while being inserted downward to a predetermined height from a bottom surface of the chamber 102a of the body part 102, and that, when descending, discharges the first cosmetic content A inside the chamber 102a under pressure to the opening 102c to be mixed with a second cosmetic content B inside the container 202; and a sealing member 120 that is insert-penetrated upward from a lower portion of the opening 102c, whose upper end is close to or in close contact with the pressing part 104, and whose lower portion is press-fitted to an inner diameter of the opening 102c to close the opening 102c.
In addition, it is preferable that a plurality of inlet grooves 102d are formed along a circumferential direction at an upper outer periphery of the inner diameter of the opening 102c where the opening 102c and the chamber 102a are connected.
As described above, the cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function of the present disclosure has an effect that when mixing the second cosmetic content stored in the container and the first cosmetic content of the cap coupled to the container, the first cosmetic content and the second cosmetic content can be mixed without removing the cap from the container. In addition, the cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function of the present disclosure has the effect of maintaining the aesthetics of the appearance since the sealing member that prevents the first cosmetic content of the body part from leaking is concealed without staying inside the container even when the first cosmetic content and the second cosmetic content are mixed.
The above and other objectives, features, and other advantages of the present disclosure will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
The configuration of a cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying
As shown in
As shown in
In addition, the through opening 102c is formed with a predetermined length downward from the chamber 102a of the body part 102, so that the chamber 102a and the opening 102c communicate with each other.
Meanwhile, the pressing part 104 is inserted downward into the chamber 102a of the body part 102. The pressing part 104 is formed of a stretchable material and is in close contact with the inner diameter surface of the chamber 102a into which the pressing part 104 is inserted, thereby preventing leakage of the first cosmetic content A accommodated in the chamber 102a. In addition, when the pressing part 104 descends, by compressing the chamber 102a, the first cosmetic content A inside the chamber 102a is discharged into the container through the opening 102c.
It is preferable that the outer diameter surface of the pressing part 104 has a concave and convex round structure as shown in
In addition, although the pressing part 104 has a ‘ shaped structure in the accompanying drawings, the present disclosure is not limited to this shape, and may have a 0’ shaped structure, or a shaped structure that is not hollow and has a predetermined thickness.
Furthermore, the pressing part may be directly pressed down by a user or consumer to discharge the first cosmetic content A of the chamber 102a into the container 202. Alternatively, as shown in
The present disclosure is that the pressing part 104 directly discharges the first cosmetic content A inside the chamber 102a to the opening 102c as described above, and therefore, is not limited to an additional configuration for operating the pressing part 104, and this additional configuration may be variously adopted and changed.
Meanwhile, in the present disclosure, the sealing member 120 is provided for keeping the opening 102c closed and then opening the opening 102c according to a user's intention so that the first cosmetic content A and the second cosmetic content B are mixed. This is to prevent the first cosmetic content A from leaking through the opening 102c and then mixing with the second cosmetic content B filled in the container 202 when there is no user's intention after filling the chamber 102a of the body part 102 with the first cosmetic content A.
The sealing member 120 is loosely inserted upward from a lower portion of the opening 102c, and the lower portion of the sealing member 120 is formed with a relatively large outer diameter to close the opening 102c while being press-fitted into the opening 102c.
In addition, it is preferable that a plurality of inlet grooves 102d are formed along the circumferential direction at the upper outer periphery of the inner diameter of the opening 102c where the opening 102c and the chamber 102a are connected to facilitate the discharge of the first cosmetic content A inside the chamber 102a to the container 202.
At this time, the first cosmetic content A may be in the form of liquid or powder, and the second cosmetic content B may also be in the form of liquid or powder, and thus, in the present disclosure, the types of the first cosmetic content A and the second cosmetic content B are not limited and may be selected and changed in various ways.
The function of the cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function according to the present disclosure configured as described above will be described with reference to the accompanying
As shown in
At this time, the first cosmetic content A filled in the chamber 102a is prevented from leaking to the outside since the pressing part 104 maintains a state in close contact with the inner diameter of the chamber 102a.
As described above, when the first cosmetic content A is filled in the chamber 102a, the sealing member 120 is inserted downwardly into the end of the opening 102c as shown in
At this time, the upper portion of the sealing member 120 is loosely inserted because the outer diameter thereof is formed to be relatively smaller than the inner diameter of the opening 102c, and one end of the sealing member 120 is close to or in close contact with the pressing part 104 as shown in
Meanwhile, the container 202 is filled with the second cosmetic content B as shown in
As described above, after filling the chamber 102a with the first cosmetic content A and sealing the opening 102c using the sealing member 120, the female fastening portion 102b of the cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function according to the present disclosure is fastened, as shown in
Meanwhile,
That is,
Accordingly, the sealing member 120 sealing the opening 102c is separated from the opening 102c while descending, and as the pressing part 104 descends further along the outer diameter of the chamber 102a, the opening 102c is opened and the first cosmetic content A is discharged into the container 202.
As described above, when the sealing member 120 is separated from the opening 102c and descends by the pressing part 104, the first cosmetic content A and the second cosmetic content B are mixed to form a cosmetic mixture C, and then a consumer or user is able to use the cosmetic mixture C inside the container 202 after disassembling the cosmetic container cap with a duo-mix function according to the present disclosure fastened to the container 202.
Meanwhile, as shown in
