The transparent window 311 or the scale 312 may be any form to see the inner part of the casing 31. A limit protrusion 313 protruding from an inner surface of the casing 33 toward a center direction and having a shape of a ring or a strip may be formed within the casing 31. The upward movement of the pressure piston 32 may be limited by the limit protrusion 313.
The pressure piston 32 may be a shape of a linear rod to move in a vertical direction, an operating plate 321 having a circular form or the like may be coupled to the lower part of the pressure piston 32. The operating plate 321 is located within the tint cylinder 35 to move upward and downward for discharging some tint component. The upper part of the pressure piston 32 may be coupled to the lower part of the regulating unit 34 through the inner part of the moving regulation unit 33.
The moving regulation unit 33 may have a cylindrical shape, wherein an elastic unit 331 is placed at an inner portion of the pressure piston 32, and a through hole is formed for the upper part of the pressure piston 32 to pass through at a center part of the pressure piston 32. The elastic unit 331 may be a coil spring or the like to apply an elastic property and have various shapes. The elastic unit 331 has a function of moving the regulating unit 34 placed at a lower position in the upward direction.
The regulating unit 34 may be coupled to the casing 31, wherein the lower part of the regulating unit 34 is placed at an upper part of the casing 31 protruding outward for being coupled to the casing 31. The regulating unit 34 may have a cylindrical shape on the whole, and a moving plate 341 in a form of a circular plate may be formed at the lower part of the regulating unit 34. A coupling hole 342 communicating to the inner part of the regulating unit may be made at the center of the moving plate 341, and the upper part of the pressure piston 32 may be connected at the coupling hole 342.
The moving plate 341 may be located at the upper part of the elastic unit 331 displaced at the moving regulation unit 33, and the pressure piston 32 may be displaced downwardly by applying some downward pressure on the regulating unit 34. And then the moving plate 341 can move upward by the elastic unit 331 with the upward movement being limited. The pressure piston 32 can move according to the movement of the moving plate 341, the operating cylinder 321 coupled to the lower portion of the pressure piston 32 can move up and down within the tint cylinder 35. And a portion of the tint stored within the tint cylinder 35 can be discharged outward according to the up and down movement of the operating plate 321.
The tint cylinder 35 may have a structure of storing a tint component such as a liquid or and the like, and have a shape in which the upper part is open. And tint tool 36 may be coupled to the lower part of the tint cylinder 35. The operating plate 321 can be inserted into the upper part of the tint cylinder 35 to move up and down according to the operation of the regulating unit 34. And some pressure can be applied to the tint component stored within the tint cylinder 35 depending on the up and down movement of the operating plate 321, and then dome tint component can be discharged to the tint tool 36 comprising a contacting part such as a brush, a painting brush or a cotton bud.
The tint tool 36 can comprise the contacting part such as the brush, the painting brush or the cotton bud, and the tint component stored in the tint cylinder 35 may be discharged to the tint tool 36 as a pre-determined amount. The sealing cap 37 may be coupled to the lower part of the casing 31 detachably, the tint tool can protrude outward passing through the sealing cap 37.
If the pressure is applied to the regulating unit 14 downwardly, then the pressure piston 32 can move downwardly. And then the operating plate 321 placed within the tint cylinder 35 may move downwardly to apply some pressure on the tine component stored within the tint cylinder 35. And then some amount of the tint component can be discharged to the tint tool 36 by the pressure applied on the tint component. The amount of tint component discharged to the tint tool 36 may be checked with the transparent window 311 and the scale 312. The regulating unit 34 can return to the original position by the elastic unit, and the regulating unit 34 can be pressured for an additive amount if necessary.
If the tint component stored within the tint cylinder 35 is burn out completely, the sealing cover 37 can be separated from the casing 31 to take out the tint cylinder 35 from the casing 31. And then some tint component can be filled within the tint cylinder 35 or the tint cylinder 35 can be replaced with new one. Alternatively the tint cylinder 35 can be replaced with other one with a different color. The tint component can be discharged from the tint cylinder 35 to the tint tool 36 by a capillary phenomenon or an open-close slit.
The discharging structure of the tint component will be explained below.

If some pressure may apply from the upper part of the tint cylinder 35, the pressure opening slit 411 may become open because of the elasticity of the discharge regulating plate 41 to make some tint component flow downwardly. And then the tint component flows into a storing means having capillary tubes such as a fiber, cotton or the like. The storing means may be connected to the contacting brush 363, for example the tint component can flow to the contacting brush 363 through the pressure opening slit 411 such as a capillary phenomenon. The pressure opening slit 411 may have a shape that the upper part is a groove shape and the lower part is a shape of hole so that the tint component may flow to the tint brush 363 through the separating receiving part by the applied pressure. Furthermore, the structure according the present invention makes the tint component be maintained within the tint cylinder 35, when the tint brush 363 is not used. And some tint component may supply to the tint brush 363 only when the tint brush is used.
