Double-spiral lipstick tube

Abstract

A double-spiral lipstick tube that is small-sized but can accommodate a standard volume of a paste body product. The double-spiral lipstick includes a tube body that houses an outer screw member and an inner screw member embedded inside the outer screw member. The double-spiral lipstick also includes a middle segment that is axially fixed to and circumferentially slidable relative to the outer screw member. The double-spiral lipstick further includes a bead having a barrel body for housing the paste body. A lower portion of the bead extends into the inner portion of the inner screw member. The rotation of the tube body causes rotation of the outer screw member and the inner screw member, which in turn pushes the bead and the inner screw member to move up together up to a certain distance, and thereafter on a continuous rotation of the tube body, only the bead moves up.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of cosmetic packaging, and in particular to a double-spiral lipstick tube.

BACKGROUND ART

With the improvement of living conditions, people need to carry more and more items with them when they go out, so the items in small size are more convenient to carry. Lipstick is generally a cosmetic that women carry with them for makeup at any time. At present, the lipstick tube on the market mostly has a single-spiral structure and a short stroke, if the amount of a paste body contained in the lipstick tube is to be increased, the volume of the lipstick tube needs to be increased, making the lipstick occupy a large space and be inconvenient to carry, so the technician develops a lipstick tube that is small in size and ensures the volume of the paste body contained, making it easy to carry around.

a double-spiral lipstick tube, which comprises a cap and a tube body snapped vertically to each other, an outer screw member engaged and fixed inside the tube body, an inner screw member embedded inside the outer screw member, a middle segment axially fixed to and circumferentially slidable relative to the upper portion of the outer screw member, a lifting member slidably sheathed on the middle segment, a bead whose lower portion passes through the lifting member and extends into the inner portion of the inner screw member, and a bushing whose lower portion extends into the tube body and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the middle segment, wherein the inner wall of the outer screw member is provided with an outer guiding groove, the outer wall of the lower portion of the inner screw member is provided with protruding posts, the inner screw member is rotatably connected to the outer screw member via the protruding posts and the outer guiding groove, the bead comprises a push rod at a lower portion, the inner wall of the inner screw member is provided with an inner guiding groove, the outer wall of the lower portion of the push rod is provided with rotating posts, and the bead is rotatably connected to the inner screw member via the rotating posts and the inner guiding groove.

A coloring member for marking the color of the product is embedded in the center of the top of the cap.

The inner wall of the lower portion of the cap is provided with a groove ring, and the outer wall of the upper portion of the tube body is evenly distributed with protruding teeth snapped into the groove ring.

The outer screw member comprises an upper outer screw member and a lower outer screw member which are connected vertically, the outer wall of the lower outer screw member is provided with a limiting ring, and the inner wall of the lower portion of the tube body is provided with a limiting groove into which the limiting ring abuts.

The outer wall of the lower outer screw member is also circumferentially and evenly distributed with outer limiting teeth, and the inner wall of the lower portion of the tube body is circumferentially and evenly distributed with inner limiting teeth engaged to the outer limiting teeth.

The outer wall of the upper outer screw member is provided with several rib rings, the inner wall of the middle segment is provided with several ribs, and the rib rings abut vertically against the ribs to form axial limiting of the middle segment by the outer screw member.

The bead further comprises a barrel body connected to an upper end of the push rod, and the barrel body is located inside the bushing.

The lifting member comprises an upper lifting portion and a pair of side lifting portions symmetrically connected to a lower end surface of the edge of the upper lifting portion, the outer wall of the middle segment is symmetrically provided with a pair of sliding grooves, and the lifting member is slidably connected to the middle segment via the side lifting portions and the sliding grooves.

The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the double-spiral structure doubles the stroke of the bead, and the volume of the double-spiral lipstick tube is smaller than that of the single-spiral lipstick tube when containing the same volume of paste body, which saves on the amount of materials, reduces the costs, and is also convenient to carry around.
