Description

The present invention relates to a small-filled stick-shaped cosmetic container that is distributed to customers as a sample or sold for portable use.

Traditionally, when advertising a new product or conducting some kind of campaign, a cosmetics company distributes a small amount of cosmetics sample, which is a sample of the contents of the new product or the product related to the campaign, for free at stores or on the street, or direct mail. It is often sent by.

Among such cosmetic samples, as a sample of oil-based cosmetics such as lipstick and eye shadow, for example, a card type as shown in FIG. 9 is widely used. In this case, in the mount 1 on which thick paper is laminated, a notch hole 2 is provided in the surface layer portion thereof, and a small amount of cosmetic 3 is applied to the lower layer thereof to expose the notch hole 2 from the notch hole 2. The opening is covered with a film 4. To use this sample, first, the film 4 is peeled off, the inner cosmetic 3 is scraped off with a cosmetic chip or the like, and the film 4 is applied to the lips and skin.

However, among cosmetics, lipsticks are actually stick-type products in many cases, so in such a card-type cosmetic sample, the ease of stretching when actually applying stick-type cosmetics to the lips I couldn't feel the touch, and I couldn't say that I was fully satisfied with the sample.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 10, a disposable trial lipstick imitating a stick-type lipstick cosmetic has been proposed (see Patent Document 1). This product has a structure in which an inclined end face 6 is provided at the tip of a tubular body 5 that imitates the actual product shape, and the lipstick cosmetic 7 for one or several times is piled up on this end face 6. It has become. 8 is a cap.

However, in the above, the lipstick cosmetic 7 applied on the end face 6 easily slips off from the end face 6, and even if the lipstick cosmetic 7 is applied to the lips, the end face is before the lipstick cosmetic 7 adheres to the lips. There is a problem that it is easy to lift up from 6 and slip off or fall off.

Therefore, the applicant has developed a cosmetic sample that allows the cosmetic to be applied directly to the skin and lips without slipping or falling off, and to test the stretch and feel of the cosmetic. It has already been filed (see Patent Document 2).

As shown in FIG. 11 (a) and FIG. 11 (b), which is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XX', this has a cylindrical body portion 14 for filling and holding the oil-based cosmetics 13 and a square tubular portion. A resin case 11 having a hakama portion 14a is provided, and the top surface portion 12 thereof is inclined obliquely with respect to the body portion 14. A shallow annular wall 15 is formed around the top surface portion 12, and the oil-based cosmetics 13 held on the top surface portion 12 are prevented from coming off by the annular wall 15.

Utility Model Registration No. 3068287 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2016-43179

Although the above cosmetic sample 10 contains a small amount of oily cosmetic 13, it can be used by directly applying it to the skin or lips like an actual product, and is easy to use. If you want to prepare cosmetic samples, you need as many cosmetic samples as there are colors. For this reason, it is desired to have a more compact configuration in consideration of sending by direct mail or carrying it.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and has a good usability when the cosmetic is applied directly to the skin or lips, and two types of cosmetics (two identical cosmetics). It is an object of the present invention to provide an excellent stick-shaped cosmetic container capable of compactly holding (the same applies hereinafter) including the case where it is divided into two and individually held.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a rod-shaped cosmetic container having a main body portion having a grip portion formed on one end side and a cosmetic holding portion formed on the other end side of the cosmetic holding portion. The contour shape in a plan view is a substantially elliptical shape set so that the length dimension of the major axis is 1.1 to 3 when the length dimension of the minor axis is 1, and the peripheral surface of the cosmetic holding portion is among them, in a portion opposed to each other in the minor axis direction of the plan view contour shape, toward the tip of the cosmetic holder a pair of inclined surfaces approaching provided et al are each other, each of the pair of inclined surfaces, the inclined surface With the peripheral edge left in an annular shape, a cosmetic holding recess having a depth of 0.1 to 1.2 mm _{is formed, and the inclination angles θ 1} and θ _{2 of the} pair of inclined surfaces with respect to the vertical direction, respectively. However, the first gist is a stick-shaped cosmetic container set at 15 to 30 °.

Further, the present invention is its inter alia, in particular, the upper Symbol cosmetic retention recess formed on the inclined surfaces, oily cosmetic of 0.05~0.3g is adapted to be filled and held bar-like The cosmetic container is the second gist.

In the stick-shaped cosmetic container of the present invention, a conventional simple cosmetic sample holds the cosmetic on a single inclined surface provided on the top surface of the main body (see, for example, FIGS. 10 and 11). On the other hand, the cosmetics holding portion provided in the main body is provided with a pair of inclined surfaces that approach each other toward the tip thereof, and a cosmetic holding recess is formed on each inclined surface.

According to this configuration, the cosmetics can be held in small amounts in each of the cosmetic holding recesses provided on the pair of inclined surfaces, so that two cosmetics of different colors and types can be held at the same time. It can be distributed as a cosmetic sample or sold as a portable product. Then, since the periphery of the cosmetic held on each inclined surface is surrounded by the peripheral edge of the inclined surface left in an annular shape as the concave opening edge, the surface of the cosmetic held on the inside thereof is directly applied to the skin. Even if it is applied to the skin or lips and stretched, the entire makeup will not slip or fall off. Therefore, the cosmetic held in this cosmetic holder can be applied to the skin and lips in the same manner as when using a general stick-type cosmetic container, and the color and use of the cosmetic can be applied. You can feel the feeling.

Further, since the stick-shaped cosmetic container of the present invention holds two cosmetics, the amount of cosmetics held in the cosmetic holding recesses of each of the inclined surfaces may be small. However, in the present invention, in order to secure a sufficient opening area of the recess, the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion in a plan view is a substantially elliptical shape having a minor axis and a major axis. That is, if the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion in a plan view is, for example, a perfect circle, the formation area of the recess is inevitably limited within the range of the inclination angle that is easy to use. Therefore, in the present invention, the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion in a plan view is made substantially elliptical, and a pair of inclined surfaces are formed on the portions facing each other in the minor axis direction to form a recess having a sufficient opening area. Can be formed, and an amount of cosmetic that can be used once to several times can be retained on the two inclined surfaces.

In the present invention, the "substantially elliptical shape having a minor axis and a major axis" is not only an ellipse shape defined mathematically, but also an oval shape, an oval shape, a rhombus shape with rounded corners, a rectangle, and the like. , One of the two orthogonal axes can be distinguished as a minor axis and the other as a major axis, and a circle or an ellipse having a shape close to a circle includes various shapes extending in the major axis direction.

In the present invention , in particular, the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion in a plan view is a substantially ellipse set so that the length dimension of the major axis is 1.1 to 3 when the length dimension of the minor axis is 1. because it is Jo, among other things, the opening area of the cosmetic supporting recessed portions can be sufficiently ensured, also becomes good usability in use, it is preferable.

Further, in the present invention, in particular, of the pair of inclined surfaces, each of the inclination angle theta ₁ in the vertical direction, theta ₂ is because it is set to 15 to 30 °, for the same reason as described above, especially preferred be.

Furthermore, in the present invention, in particular, the depth of each inclined surface is formed in cosmetics holding recess, since it is set to 0.1 to 1.2 mm, especially, excellent cosmetic retention performance, preferred Is.

Further, among the present inventions, in particular, a stick-shaped cosmetic container in which 0.05 to 0.3 g of oily cosmetic is filled and held in the cosmetic holding recesses formed on each of the inclined surfaces. In particular, since one container can hold two types of cosmetics that can be used several times at the same time, as a cosmetic sample that allows you to try two types of cosmetics at the same time, at the store. It is convenient to distribute or send by direct mail. It is also convenient to carry and store.

(A) is a perspective view showing still another example of the conventional cosmetic sample, and (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XX'of (a).

Next, a mode for carrying out the present invention will be described. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

FIG. 1 shows a stick-shaped cosmetic container according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, this stick-shaped cosmetic container is a container for a cosmetic sample or a portable container that simply holds a small amount of cosmetics, and is formed on a main body 20 made of a vertically long hollow integrally molded body and the main body 20. It is provided with a ceiling-shaped cap 21 that is detachably engaged with the cap 21.

The main body 20 and the cap 21 are both made of acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer resin (AS) and are integrally molded products by injection molding. However, the molding method and the type of material resin are not limited to this, and any manufacturing method or material may be used as long as it can be molded into the shape of the main body 20 and the cap 21.

More specifically, the main body 20 is a front view thereof, FIG. 2A, a right side view thereof, FIG. 2B, a rear view thereof, FIG. 2C, and a plan view thereof. As shown in FIG. 2D, a cylindrical grip portion 22, a cylindrical intermediate portion 23 projecting upward from the upper surface of the grip portion 22, and a substantially dome shape upward from the upper surface of the intermediate portion 23. It is provided with a cosmetic holding portion 24 protruding from the dome. 3 (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA'of FIG. 2 (d), and FIG. 3 (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB'of FIG. 2 (d).

The grip portion 22 is a portion for gripping with a finger at the time of use, and in this example, it has a cylindrical shape having a diameter of 16 mm and a height of 15 mm. Further, the intermediate portion 23 above the intermediate portion 23 has a diameter reduced to one size smaller than that of the grip portion 22, and a stepped surface 25 having a width of 1.5 mm is formed at the boundary portion with the grip portion 22. The lower end surface of the cap 21 (see FIG. 1) comes into contact with the stepped surface 25.

Then, on the peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 23, a first narrow ridge 23a extending in the vertical direction is provided in the center of the front surface thereof for the alignment of the cap 21 and the main body portion 20, and similarly. A second ridge 23b having a large width extending in the vertical direction is provided in the center of the back surface. On the other hand, at the lower end of the peripheral wall of the cap 21, as shown in FIG. 1, two slits 21a and 21b having different widths, which are fitted with the first ridges 23a and the second ridges 23b, are formed. It is provided. By fitting these two, the cap 21 can be accurately covered without confusing the front surface and the back surface of each other.

Further, on the peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 23, four small ribs 26 extending in the vertical direction are provided in an arrangement of four equal parts in the circumferential direction. These ribs 26 serve to prevent the cap 21 from coming off by pressing the cap 21 from the inside when the main body 20 and the cap 21 are fitted. However, the engaging structure of the main body 20 and the cap 21 is not limited to this example, and is not particularly limited as long as the two are detachably engaged with each other.

The substantially dome-shaped cosmetic holding portion 24 projecting from the upper surface of the intermediate portion 23 has a width of the lower portion 27 that can be seen from the front equal to the width of the intermediate portion 23 [see FIG. 2A], from the side surface. The visible width is narrower than the width of the intermediate portion 23 [see FIG. 2 (b)], and as shown in FIG. 2 (d), the contour shape in a plan view has the front-back direction as the minor axis direction. It has an elliptical shape with the left-right direction as the major axis direction.

The upper portion 28 of the cosmetic holding portion 24 has a hollow substantially hemispherical shape extending slightly in the vertical direction, and of the hollow substantially hemispherical peripheral wall, front side and back side portions, that is, a flat surface. A pair of inclined surfaces 30 and 31 approaching each other toward the tip of the cosmetic holding portion 24 are provided at portions of the visual contour shape facing each other in the minor axis direction.

The two inclined surfaces 30 and 31 have an elliptical shape extending slightly along the vertical direction of the slope, and as shown in FIG. 3 (c), the peripheral portions thereof are formed on the inclined surfaces 30 and 31, respectively. The cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 are formed with the 32 and 33 left in an annular shape.

The bottom surfaces of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 are inclined surfaces parallel to the inclined surfaces 30 and 31, and the inner peripheral surfaces of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 are lower end portions [FIG. 3 (c)). [Represented by P] is formed substantially horizontally, and the upper end portion [indicated by Q in FIG. 3C] is formed substantially vertically in consideration of die cutting at the time of molding. Then, as shown by the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. 3C, the cosmetics can be provided to the customer in a state in which the cosmetics holding recesses 34 and 35 are filled in layers.

The method of filling the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 with the cosmetic is not particularly limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the main body 20 is first used for the cosmetic holding. The inclined surface 30 on which the recess 34 is formed is held in an inclined posture so as to be horizontal, and is positioned under the first cosmetic filling nozzle 50. Then, from the first cosmetic filling nozzle 50, the first cosmetic whose fluidity has been enhanced by heating is dropped and filled in the cosmetic holding recess 34. The dropped cosmetic is spread in layers in the cosmetic holding recess 34, and is solidified and held in a slightly raised state due to surface tension.

Next, the main body 20 is rotated 180 ° and held in an inclined posture in which the inclined surface 31 on the opposite side on which the cosmetic holding recess 35 is formed is horizontal, which is different from the first cosmetic. Positioning under the second cosmetic filling nozzle (not shown) for filling the second cosmetic, the second cosmetic is filled in the same manner as described above. In this way, the two types of cosmetics can be filled and held in the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35, respectively. Then, by covering the main body 20 with the cap 21, the desired stick-shaped cosmetic container can be obtained (see FIG. 1).

The stick-shaped cosmetic container can be displayed as it is at the store and used as a tester, but it can be easily packed by a simple two-fold blister pack, shrink wrapping, or simple bagging. Can be packaged.

According to the stick-shaped cosmetic container filled and held with the cosmetics in this way, since two types of cosmetics are held in one stick-shaped container, for example, a combination of two types of lipstick cosmetics having different colors. Or, even if the same lipstick cosmetics are used, a combination of different types of cosmetics such as lip color and lip gloss can be provided as one compact rod-shaped container. Therefore, when two types of cosmetics are distributed as cosmetic samples or sent by direct mail, they are not bulky and are easy to handle. Further, it is suitable as a product to be sold in a small amount for trial use or portable use because it is not bulky for storage or carrying.

Moreover, according to the stick-shaped cosmetic container, the grip portion 22 of the stick-shaped cosmetic container is held by a finger, and the cosmetic held on the inclined surfaces 30 and 31 of the cosmetic holding portion 24 is pressed against the lips and skin. By simply shifting, you can test the color and spread of the makeup in the same way as when applying an actual stick-type makeup. At this time, the cosmetics held in the cosmetics holding recesses 34 and 35 are placed inside the annular remaining inclined surfaces 30 and 31 by the peripheral edges 32 and 33 [see FIG. 3C]. It is held in a stable state. Therefore, even if the main body portion 20 is displaced laterally, the cosmetics themselves do not shift or fall off, and this can be applied smoothly.

In the present invention, the retained cosmetic can be applied directly to the lips and skin to each of the two cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 provided in the cosmetic holding portion 24. It is important to be able to hold a small amount of cosmetics for one to several doses. For that purpose, although it depends on the type of cosmetics, when the cosmetics are, for example, oil-based cosmetics, 0.05 to 0.3 g in each of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35, particularly 0. It is preferable that about 1 to 0.2 g of cosmetics are retained.

The opening areas of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 can be applied directly to the lips and skin on either surface, and the cosmetic can be held once to several times. , It is preferable to make it as large as possible. The depth of the cosmetic retention recesses 34 and 35, Ru is set to 0.1~1.2m m.

In the present invention, in order to make the opening areas of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 as large as possible, the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion 24 in a plan view is made substantially elliptical, and the inclined surface 30 of the cosmetic holding portion 24. 31 is made wide. In particular, in the above-mentioned substantially elliptical shape, assuming that the length dimension of the minor axis [indicated by S in FIG. 2 (d)] is 1, the length dimension of the major axis [indicated by L in FIG. 2 (d)]. ] that is set to be 1.1 to 3, it is necessary to increase the opening area of the cosmetic retention recesses 34, 35. This ratio depends on the angle formed by the pair of inclined surfaces 30 and 31 formed on the cosmetic holding portion 24 [indicated by θ in FIG. 3C] described below, but for example, the angle θ is. When the temperature is 30 to 60 °, which is a suitable range, it is particularly preferable to set the above S: L to 1: 1.15 to 2. Incidentally, in the above example, the angle θ formed by the pair of inclined surfaces 30 and 31 of the cosmetic holding portion 24 is 45 °, and the length dimension S of the minor axis in the planar contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion 24 is 11 mm. Similarly, the length dimension L of the major axis is set to 13 mm.

_{That is, the inclination angles θ 1} and θ _{2 with} respect to the vertical direction of the pair of inclined surfaces 30 and 31 formed on the cosmetic holding portion 24 [see FIG. 3 (c), and in the figure, the “vertical direction” is the chain line E. If it is too small, the difference in inclination between the lower portion 27 of the cosmetic holding portion 24, which is a non-inclined portion, and the inclined surfaces 30 and 31, becomes small, and the finger holding the grip portion 22 when applied to the skin or the like. May hit the skin and make it difficult to make up. Moreover, when the opening areas of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 are constant, the inclined surfaces 30 and 31 extend long in the axial direction, so that the main body 20 and the cap 21 become long in the axial direction and become bulky. Is also not preferable.

On the contrary, if the inclination angles θ ₁ and θ ₂ are too large, the diameter of the main body 20 becomes too large when the opening areas of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 are constant. On the other hand, if the diameter of the main body portion 20 is constant, the areas of the inclined surfaces 30 and 31 become small even if the contour shape of the cosmetic holding portion 24 in a plan view is substantially elliptical, and the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35. There is a risk that the opening area will not be sufficient. From this point of view, the pair of inclined surfaces 30, 31 are formed on the cosmetic holder 24, each angle theta ₁ with respect to the vertical direction, theta ₂ is Ru is set to 15 to 30 °.

In the above example _{, the relational expression of θ 1} = θ ₂ = θ / 2 holds, but the inclination angles θ ₁ and θ ₂ of the inclined surfaces 30 and 31 with respect to the vertical direction are different from each other. good.

Further, the opening shape of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 is substantially elliptical extending in the vertical direction (see FIG. 2 and the like) as in the above example, so that the cosmetic can be neatly filled. It is preferable in terms of the appearance of the retained cosmetic and the ease of makeup. In order to obtain such a substantially elliptical shape, it is desirable that the upper portion 28 of the cosmetic holding portion 24 is rounded to a substantially hemispherical shape. Incidentally, the radius of curvature seen from the front at the substantially hemispherical tip of the upper portion 28 of the cosmetic holding portion 24 [ _{indicated by R 1} in FIG. 2 (a)] is 4 mm, and the radius of curvature seen from the side surface at the apex [ In FIG. 2 (b), _{indicated by R 2} ] is 2.8 mm.

Further, in the example shown in FIG. 1, the top surface of the cap 21 has a flat shape, but as shown in FIG. 6A, for example, the top surface 41a of the cap 41 covering the main body 20 is rounded in a dome shape. You may. A dome shape is suitable because the volume of the cap portion is reduced, resulting in a more compact shape as a whole.

Further, in the example shown in FIG. 1 and the example shown in FIG. 6A, the overall shape of the main body 20 covered with the caps 21 and 41 is substantially cylindrical, but is shown in FIG. 6B, for example. As described above, in the main body 40, the shape of the cosmetic holding portion 24 remains the same, and the shapes of the grip portion 42, the intermediate portion 43, and the cap 44 are all angular, and the overall shape is made substantially prismatic. good. Although this shape is bulkier than the cylindrical one, it is preferable in that the main body 40 and the cap 44 can be erected stably and they do not roll and fall.

Further, as another example of the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, in the main body portion 45, an intermediate portion 53 and a cosmetic holding portion 54 are provided on both sides of the grip portion 52, and each cosmetic holding portion 54 is provided. It is also possible to hold two types of cosmetics, for a total of four types of cosmetics. According to this container, in the past, four stick-shaped cosmetic containers were required to prepare four types of cosmetics with different colors and types, but since only one container is required, put it in a pouch or the like. It is very convenient to carry around and use as a cosmetic sample for direct mail.

In the above series of examples, the bottom shapes of the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 provided in the cosmetic holding portion 24 (including 54, the same shall apply hereinafter) do not necessarily have to be flat. For example, as shown in FIG. 8 (a), a concave curved surface may be formed, or as shown in FIG. 8 (b), the bottom surface may be roughened by a textured shape or an uneven groove. These shapes are suitable because even if the cosmetic has a relatively low viscosity, there is no risk that the cosmetic will slip or fall off. Further, the cosmetic holding portion 24 itself does not have to be substantially dome-shaped as in the series of examples, and the shape thereof can be appropriately set.

Further, in the above series of examples, as shown in FIG. 5A, holes 60 are formed in the portions of the cap 21 facing the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 on the main body 20 side, respectively. As shown in 5 (b), the cosmetic may be dropped and filled from the hole 60 with the cap 21 still closed. According to this filling method, the production efficiency is good. Then, after filling the cosmetics, the holes 60 of the cap 21 can be closed with a small round seal, or a band-shaped seal can be wound in the circumferential direction and closed at the same time. Display such as a color number may be given to these stickers.

In the above series of examples, the cap 21 is detachably covered with the main body 20, but the cap 21 is not always necessary. For example, a stick-shaped cosmetic container composed of only the main body 20 may be directly stored in a separately prepared blister pack or the like.

In the present invention, the cosmetics to be held in the cosmetic holding recesses 34 and 35 include lipstick cosmetics such as lip color and lip gloss, as well as eye color, cheek color, face color, face shadow, concealer and the like. Various oil-based cosmetics can be preferably used.

The present invention can be used as a simple stick-shaped cosmetic container capable of holding two types of cosmetics at the same time.
