しかしながら、前記従来の塗布容器では、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓の先端部を被塗布部に当接させたときに、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を与えることが困難で、使用者に不快感を与えてしまうおそれがあった。 However, in the conventional applicator container, when the tip of the applicator plug located at the application position is brought into contact with the part to be coated, it is difficult to give the part to be coated a soft feel. There was a possibility that it might make you feel uncomfortable.

本発明は、前述した事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を与えることができる塗布容器を提供することを目的とする。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an applicator container capable of imparting a soft feel to the part to be applied.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes the following means.
The application container according to the present invention includes a bottomed cylindrical container main body that accommodates the content to be applied to the application target part, and a communication hole that is attached to the mouth of the container main body and communicates with the container main body. A weighing chamber communicating with the container main body through the communicating hole is formed between the inner plug member and the inner plug member, and a discharge hole communicating with the measuring chamber is formed at the tip portion. a cylinder member; and an applicator plug provided in the measuring cylinder member and having a distal end projecting from the discharge hole to the outside of the measuring cylinder member, wherein the applicator plug is connected to the discharge hole and the measuring chamber. and a measuring position that blocks communication with the measuring chamber and communicates the communicating hole with the measuring chamber; and a coating position that blocks communication with the hole and allows communication between the discharge hole and the measuring chamber. A pressing member is disposed between the measuring cylinder member and the outer peripheral surface, and the tip of the pressing member protrudes outside the measuring cylinder member from the discharge hole. The measuring cylinder can be ejected from the discharge hole by being engaged with an outer protrusion facing the peripheral edge of the opening of the discharge hole on the outer surface in the container axial direction and a locking part formed on the inner surface of the measuring cylinder member. and a locked portion that restricts the member from coming off to the outside, and is formed of a soft material, and the tip surface of the outer projection faces the tip surface of the applicator plug positioned at the applicator position. , an equivalent position in the axial direction of the container, or positioned outside the container body along the axial direction of the container , and the pressing member is such that the outer protrusion is located at the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member. A contact position where the locked portion abuts against the opening peripheral portion of the discharge hole and is spaced apart from the locking portion in the container axial direction, and the outer protrusion is located at the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member. and a projecting position in which the engaged portion abuts or approaches the engaging portion, and moves in the axial direction of the container away from the opening peripheral portion to the outside of the container body along the axial direction of the container. freely arranged .

この発明によれば、軟材質で形成された押圧部材の外突部の先端面が、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓の先端面に対して、同等の容器軸方向の位置に位置している、または容器軸方向に沿う容器本体の外側に位置しているので、被塗布部に内容物を塗布する際に、外突部を優先して被塗布部に押し付けることができる。これにより、被塗布部に内容物を塗布する際に、被塗布部に対する押し付け力、および衝撃力などを緩和若しくは吸収することが可能になり、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を与えることができる。
外突部が、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部に容器軸方向で対向しているので、押圧部材が、吐出孔内から計量筒部材の内部に抜けるのを防ぐことでき、押圧部材が被係止部を備えるので、押圧部材が、吐出孔内から計量筒部材の外部に抜けるのを防ぐことができる。
According to the present invention, the front end surface of the outer protrusion of the pressing member made of a soft material is positioned at a position in the axial direction of the container equivalent to the front end surface of the applicator stopper positioned at the application position. Alternatively, since it is located outside the container body along the container axial direction, the outer projection can be preferentially pressed against the coated portion when the content is coated onto the coated portion. As a result, when the content is applied to the applied part, it is possible to reduce or absorb the pressing force and impact force on the applied part, and the applied part can be given a soft feel. can.
Since the outer protrusion faces the peripheral edge of the opening of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member in the axial direction of the container, the pressing member can be prevented from slipping out of the discharge hole into the measuring cylinder member. Since the member has the locked portion, it is possible to prevent the pressing member from slipping out of the measuring cylinder member from the discharge hole.

圧部材が、突当り位置と突出位置との間を容器軸方向に移動自在に配設されているので、押圧部材を突出位置に位置させた状態で、外突部を被塗布部に押し付けると、押圧部材が突当り位置に移動することとなる。したがって、外突部を被塗布部に押し付ける当初に、押圧部材を突出位置に位置させておくことにより、被塗布部に衝撃力を加えにくくすることが可能になり、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を確実に与えることができる。 Since the pressing member is disposed so as to be movable in the axial direction of the container between the abutment position and the projecting position, when the pressing member is positioned at the projecting position, the outer projecting portion is pressed against the applied portion. , the pressing member moves to the abutting position. Therefore, by positioning the pressing member at the projecting position at the beginning of pressing the outer projecting portion against the coated portion, it is possible to make it difficult to apply an impact force to the coated portion, and the coated portion is soft. You can definitely give it a nice feel.

また、前記塗布栓は、前記塗布位置から前記計量位置に移動するときに、前記押圧部材を、容器軸方向に突き上げて前記突出位置に位置させる突き上げ部を有してもよい。 Further, the applicator plug may have a push-up portion that pushes up the pressing member in the axial direction of the container to position it at the projecting position when moving from the applying position to the weighing position.

この場合、塗布栓が、塗布位置から計量位置に移動するときに、押圧部材を、容器軸方向に突き上げて突出位置に位置させる突き上げ部を有するので、計量室内で計量された内容物を、被塗布部に塗布するのに先立って、押圧部材を突当り位置から突出位置に引き上げる操作が不要になり、外突部を被塗布部に押し付ける当初に、押圧部材を必ず突出位置に位置させておくことができる。 In this case, when the applicator stopper moves from the application position to the weighing position, it has a push-up portion that pushes up the pressing member in the axial direction of the container to position it at the projecting position. To dispense with an operation of pulling up a pressing member from an abutting position to a projecting position prior to application to an application part, and to always position the pressing member at the projecting position when the outer projecting part is initially pressed against a part to be coated. can be done.

また、前記計量筒部材の先端部は、容器軸方向に延びる筒状に形成され、前記外突部に、容器軸方向に沿う前記底部側に向けて延びるとともに、前記押圧部材が前記突出位置に位置した状態で、前記計量筒部材の外面における前記吐出孔の開口周縁部を径方向の外側から覆う被覆壁が設けられてもよい。 Further, the distal end portion of the measuring cylinder member is formed in a tubular shape extending in the axial direction of the container, and extends toward the bottom portion side along the axial direction of the container at the outer projecting portion, and the pressing member is positioned at the projecting position. A covering wall may be provided that covers the opening peripheral edge portion of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member from the outside in the radial direction in the positioned state.

この場合、外突部に被覆壁が設けられているので、押圧部材が突出位置に位置し、外突部と、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部と、の間に容器軸方向の隙間が生じても、この隙間が被覆壁により径方向の外側から覆われることとなる。したがって、押圧部材を突出位置に位置させた状態で、外突部を被塗布部に押し付けたときに、押圧部材が突当り位置に移動して前記隙間が無くなっても、被塗布部にある例えば髪の毛などが、外突部と、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部と、の間に挟まれるのを防ぐことができる。 In this case, since the outer protrusion is provided with the covering wall, the pressing member is positioned at the protruded position, and the outer protrusion and the opening peripheral portion of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member are spaced in the axial direction of the container. Even if a gap is generated, this gap is covered from the outside in the radial direction by the covering wall. Therefore, when the pressing member is positioned at the protruding position and the outer protrusion is pressed against the coated portion, even if the pressing member moves to the abutting position and the gap disappears, hair, for example, that is on the coated portion is removed. etc. can be prevented from being caught between the outer protrusion and the peripheral edge of the opening of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member.

A pressing member having a portion projecting from the discharge hole to the outside of the measuring cylinder member is disposed, and the pressing member is provided at the tip of the pressing member, and the opening peripheral edge of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member. By being locked by an outer protrusion opposed to the container axial direction and by a locking portion formed on the inner surface of the measuring cylinder member, the measuring cylinder member is prevented from coming off from the discharge hole to the outside. and a to-be-locked portion formed of a soft material, wherein the tip surface of the outer protrusion is located at a position in the axial direction of the container equivalent to the tip surface of the applicator stopper positioned at the application position. or on the outer side of the container body along the axial direction of the container, at least one of the outer protrusion and the opening peripheral edge of the discharge hole on the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member, A depression is formed between the outer projection and the outer surface of the measuring cylinder member, while the outer projection is in contact with the periphery of the opening of the discharge hole.

この発明によれば、軟材質で形成された押圧部材の外突部の先端面が、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓の先端面に対して、同等の容器軸方向の位置に位置している、または容器軸方向に沿う容器本体の外側に位置しているので、被塗布部に内容物を塗布する際に、外突部を優先して被塗布部に押し付けることができる。これにより、被塗布部に内容物を塗布する際に、被塗布部に対する押し付け力、および衝撃力などを緩和若しくは吸収することが可能になり、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を与えることができる。
外突部が、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部に容器軸方向で対向しているので、押圧部材が、吐出孔内から計量筒部材の内部に抜けるのを防ぐことでき、押圧部材が被係止部を備えるので、押圧部材が、吐出孔内から計量筒部材の外部に抜けるのを防ぐことができる。
外突部、および計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部のうちの少なくとも一方に、前記窪み部が形成されているので、外突部が、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部に当接した状態で、被塗布部に強く押し付けられたときに、外突部と、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部と、の間の隙間を埋めるように、外突部が弾性変形することとなる。したがって、外突部が、計量筒部材の外面における吐出孔の開口周縁部と、被塗布部と、により挟まれた状態であっても、外突部の柔軟性を確保することが可能になり、被塗布部に対してソフトな感触を確実に与えることができる。
According to the present invention, the front end surface of the outer protrusion of the pressing member made of a soft material is positioned at a position in the axial direction of the container equivalent to the front end surface of the applicator stopper positioned at the application position. Alternatively, since it is located outside the container body along the container axial direction, the outer projection can be preferentially pressed against the coated portion when the content is coated onto the coated portion. As a result, when the content is applied to the applied part, it is possible to reduce or absorb the pressing force and impact force on the applied part, and the applied part can be given a soft feel. can.

Push-up portion 21 extends continuously over the entire circumference. The upper surface of the push-up portion 21 is formed in a planar shape extending in both the radial direction and the circumferential direction. The outer peripheral edge of the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 faces the lower portion 8d of the discharge hole 8 in the container axis O direction.

シール筒25の周壁(以下、栓筒という)22の上部は、吐出孔8の大径部8a内に着脱可能に嵌合する。栓筒22の上端部における外周面に、径方向の外側に向けて突出するとともに周方向に延びる環状または円弧状の第2係合突部22aが形成されている。第2係合突部22aは、塗布栓9が塗布位置から計量位置に移動したときに、吐出孔8の大径部8aに形成された第1係合突部8fを上方に乗り越え、第1係合突部8fに第2係合突部22aの下側から係合する。なお、第1係合突部8fおよび第2係合突部22aは、互いに全周にわたって連続して係合しなくてもよい。

The upper portion of the peripheral wall (hereinafter referred to as plug cylinder) 22 of the seal cylinder 25 is detachably fitted into the large diameter portion 8a of the discharge hole 8. As shown in FIG. An annular or arcuate second engagement protrusion 22a is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the upper end of the plug tube 22, protruding radially outward and extending in the circumferential direction. The second engaging protrusion 22a climbs over the first engaging protrusion 8f formed in the large-diameter portion 8a of the discharge hole 8 when the applicator plug 9 moves from the application position to the weighing position. It engages with the engaging protrusion 8f from below the second engaging protrusion 22a. In addition, the first engaging protrusion 8f and the second engaging protrusion 22a do not have to be continuously engaged with each other over the entire circumference.
The lower end of the plug tube 22 is detachably fitted inside the peripheral wall of the cylinder tube 12 of the inner plug member 4 . The thickness of the lower end portion of the plug tube 22 is thinner than the thickness of the other portions.

図3に示すように、塗布栓9が計量位置に位置するときに、栓筒22の上部が、吐出孔8の大径部8aに嵌合し、かつ突き上げ部21の上面の外周縁部が、吐出孔8の下段部8dに当接することで、吐出孔8と計量室6との連通を遮断する。この際、栓筒22の下端部が、中栓部材4のシリンダ筒12内から上方に離脱することで、計量室6と連通孔5とが連通する。 As shown in FIG. 3, when the applicator plug 9 is positioned at the measuring position, the upper portion of the plug cylinder 22 is fitted into the large-diameter portion 8a of the discharge hole 8, and the outer peripheral edge of the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 is , the communication between the discharge hole 8 and the measuring chamber 6 is cut off by coming into contact with the lower step portion 8d of the discharge hole 8 . At this time, the measuring chamber 6 and the communicating hole 5 are communicated with each other by the lower end of the stopper tube 22 being removed upward from the inside of the cylinder tube 12 of the inner plug member 4 .

ここで、塗布栓9が計量位置に位置した状態では、突き上げ部21の上面が、吐出孔8の下段部8dに当接することで、たとえ計量筒部材7に対して塗布栓9を上側へ移動させる向きの外力が作用した場合でも、計量位置に位置した塗布栓9が上側に向けてそれ以上移動することが規制されている。 Here, when the applicator plug 9 is positioned at the weighing position, the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 abuts against the lower portion 8 d of the discharge hole 8 , so that the applicator plug 9 moves upward with respect to the weighing tube member 7 . Even when an external force is applied in a direction to cause the application plug 9 to move upward, the applicator plug 9 positioned at the measuring position is restricted from moving further upward.

図2および図4に示すように、塗布栓9が塗布位置に位置するときに、栓筒22の上部が、吐出孔8内から下方に離脱することで、吐出孔8と計量室6とが連通する。この際、栓筒22の下端部が、中栓部材4のシリンダ筒12の周壁の内側に嵌合することで、計量室6と連通孔5との連通を遮断する。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, when the applicator plug 9 is positioned at the applicator position, the upper portion of the plug cylinder 22 is removed downward from the discharge hole 8, thereby separating the discharge hole 8 and the measuring chamber 6. communicate. At this time, the lower end of the plug tube 22 is fitted inside the peripheral wall of the cylinder tube 12 of the inner plug member 4 to block communication between the measurement chamber 6 and the communication hole 5 .

外挿筒24は、中栓部材4の案内軸11aに上下動自在に外挿されている。図示の例では、外挿筒24は、中栓部材4の案内軸11aに非接触状態で上下動する。これにより、塗布栓9を円滑に上下動させることができる。また、外挿筒24の下端開口縁は、シール筒25の下端開口縁よりも下側に位置している。 The externally inserted cylinder 24 is externally fitted on the guide shaft 11a of the inner plug member 4 so as to be vertically movable. In the illustrated example, the outer tube 24 moves up and down without contacting the guide shaft 11a of the inner plug member 4 . As a result, the applicator plug 9 can be smoothly moved up and down. In addition, the lower end opening edge of the outer insertion cylinder 24 is positioned below the lower end opening edge of the seal cylinder 25 .

図2に示すように、塗布栓9が塗布位置に位置した状態で、外挿筒24の下端開口縁は、支持体11の規制部11bの上端縁と当接し、支持体11の規制部11bに下側から支持されている。このとき、支持体11の案内軸11aの上端縁と、外挿筒24の天壁と、の間には、容器軸O方向の隙間が設けられている。なおこれに代えて、案内軸11aの上端縁、および外挿筒24の天壁を互いに当接させて、塗布栓9のこれ以上の下降移動を規制してもよい。 As shown in FIG. 2, when the applicator plug 9 is positioned at the applicator position, the lower opening edge of the outer insertion tube 24 contacts the upper edge of the regulating portion 11b of the support 11, and the regulating portion 11b of the support 11 contacts. supported from below. At this time, a gap in the direction of the container axis O is provided between the upper edge of the guide shaft 11a of the support 11 and the ceiling wall of the outer insertion tube 24 . Alternatively, the upper edge of the guide shaft 11a and the top wall of the outer insertion tube 24 may be brought into contact with each other to restrict further downward movement of the applicator plug 9. As shown in FIG.

塗布栓9が塗布位置に位置した状態で、塗布栓9の先端部26の上端開口縁(塗布栓9の先端面)26bは、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aより上方に位置している。先端部26の外径は、吐出孔8の内径より小さく、かつ外挿筒24の周壁の外径と同等になっている。先端部26の上端部における内周面には、径方向の内側に向けて突出するとともに周方向に延びる環状または円弧状の被係合部26aが形成されている。 When the applicator plug 9 is positioned at the applicator position, the upper end opening edge 26b of the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 (the tip surface of the applicator plug 9) is positioned above the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19. The outer diameter of the tip portion 26 is smaller than the inner diameter of the discharge hole 8 and is equal to the outer diameter of the peripheral wall of the outer insertion tube 24 . An annular or arc-shaped engaged portion 26 a is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the upper end portion of the tip portion 26 so as to protrude radially inward and extend in the circumferential direction.

塗布容器1は、容器本体2の口部3に着脱自在に装着されて吐出孔8および塗布栓9の先端部26を覆うキャップ体10を備える。
キャップ体10は、有頂筒状をなしており、その周壁の下部における内周面に、口部3の雄ねじ部に螺着する雌ねじ部が形成されている。雌ねじ部は、例えば二条ねじであってもよい。
The applicator container 1 includes a cap body 10 that is detachably attached to the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 and covers the discharge hole 8 and the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 .
The cap body 10 has a truncated tubular shape, and a female threaded portion to be screwed onto the male threaded portion of the mouth portion 3 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the lower portion of the peripheral wall. The internal thread may be, for example, a double thread.

なお、キャップ体10が、口部3に着脱可能に螺着されるのに代えて例えば、キャップ体10の平滑な内周面に、口部3の平滑な外周面を着脱可能に嵌合したり、あるいはキャップ体10が口部3に着脱可能にアンダーカット嵌合したりする等、適宜変更してもよい。また、キャップ体10を、口部3に装着するのに代えて例えば、計量筒部材7に装着してもよい。 Instead of detachably screwing the cap body 10 to the mouth portion 3, for example, the smooth inner peripheral face of the cap body 10 may be detachably fitted to the smooth outer peripheral face of the mouth portion 3. Alternatively, the cap body 10 may be detachably undercut-fitted to the mouth portion 3, and other modifications may be made as appropriate. Moreover, instead of attaching the cap body 10 to the mouth portion 3, for example, the measuring tube member 7 may be attached.

キャップ体10の天壁には、下方に向けて突出するとともに、下端部が、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓9の先端部26内に着脱自在に嵌合された引き上げ筒31が形成されている。引き上げ筒31の外周面には、径方向の外側に向けて突出するとともに周方向に延びる環状または円弧状の引き上げ突起31aが形成されている。引き上げ突起31aは、塗布栓9の先端部26の被係合部26aにアンダーカット嵌合されており、キャップ体10の、口部3および計量筒部材7に対する上昇移動に伴い、塗布栓9が引き上げられて塗布位置から計量位置に移動する。 The ceiling wall of the cap body 10 is formed with a pull-up cylinder 31 that protrudes downward and whose lower end is detachably fitted into the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 positioned at the applicator position. . An annular or arc-shaped lifting projection 31a is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the lifting cylinder 31, protruding radially outward and extending in the circumferential direction. The lifting projection 31a is undercut-fitted to the engaged portion 26a of the distal end portion 26 of the applicator plug 9. As the cap body 10 moves upward with respect to the mouth portion 3 and the measuring tube member 7, the applicator plug 9 is lifted. It is lifted and moved from the coating position to the weighing position.

ここで、キャップ体10の引き上げ突起31aが、塗布栓9の被係合部26aから外れるときには、計量位置に位置する塗布栓9の突き上げ部21が、計量筒部材7における吐出孔8の下段部8dに当接することで、塗布栓9が上側に向けてそれ以上移動することが規制された状態となる。したがって、キャップ体10の引き上げ突起31aが、塗布栓9の被係合部26aから外れる際、塗布栓9には下方に向けた弾性反発力が生ずることとなる。
しかしながら、前述したように、塗布栓9の第2係合突部22aが、計量筒部材7の第1係合突部8fに、第2係合突部22aの下側から係合しているので、塗布栓9の計量位置から下方に向けた移動を規制することができる。
Here, when the lifting protrusion 31 a of the cap body 10 is disengaged from the engaged portion 26 a of the applicator plug 9 , the push-up portion 21 of the applicator plug 9 located at the weighing position is pushed up to the lower part of the discharge hole 8 in the weighing cylinder member 7 . By coming into contact with 8d, the applicator plug 9 is restricted from moving further upward. Therefore, when the lifting projection 31a of the cap body 10 is disengaged from the engaged portion 26a of the applicator plug 9, the applicator plug 9 is subjected to a downward elastic repulsive force.
However, as described above, the second engaging protrusion 22a of the applicator plug 9 is engaged with the first engaging protrusion 8f of the measuring cylinder member 7 from below the second engaging protrusion 22a. Therefore, downward movement of the applicator plug 9 from the measuring position can be restricted.

キャップ体10の天壁には、下方に向けて突出し、計量筒部材7の吐出筒19に着脱自在に外嵌された外嵌筒28が形成されている。
キャップ体10の内周面には、周方向を向く壁面を備えた段部32が形成されている。キャップ体10が容器本体2の口部3に装着された状態において、段部32は、容器本体2の回り止めリブ3bに周方向から当接可能とされている。段部32が回り止めリブ3bに周方向から当接することで、キャップ体10が口部3に過度に締め込まれることが規制される。
The top wall of the cap body 10 is formed with an outer fitting cylinder 28 that protrudes downward and is detachably fitted onto the discharge cylinder 19 of the measuring cylinder member 7 .
A step portion 32 having a wall surface facing the circumferential direction is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the cap body 10 . When the cap body 10 is attached to the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 , the stepped portion 32 can come into contact with the anti-rotation rib 3 b of the container body 2 from the circumferential direction. The stepped portion 32 abuts the anti-rotation rib 3b from the circumferential direction, thereby restricting the cap body 10 from being excessively tightened to the mouth portion 3. As shown in FIG.

そして、本実施形態では、吐出孔8の内周面と塗布栓9の外周面との間に、上端部(先端部)が吐出孔8から計量筒部材7の外部に突出した押圧部材14が配設されている。押圧部材14は、外突部15、および被係止部16を備えるとともに、軟材質で形成されている。軟材質としては、塗布栓9を形成する材質より軟らかい材質であればよく、例えばニトリルゴム、ブチルゴム、シリコンゴム、エラストマー等のような弾性変形可能なゴム状の材質に限定されるものではなく、例えば低密度ポリエチレン等であってもよい。
本実施形態では、シリコンゴムにより一体に成形された押圧部材14を例として説明する。

A depression 15a is formed in the outer protrusion 15 to provide a gap between the outer protrusion 15 and the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 when the outer protrusion 15 is positioned at the abutting position. The recessed portion 15 a is formed at the radially inner end portion of the lower surface of the outer projection portion 15 . The recessed portion 15a is formed in a groove shape continuously extending over the entire circumference. The recessed portion 15a has a semicircular shape when viewed in longitudinal section.
For example, the recessed portion 15a may extend intermittently in the circumferential direction, and the vertical cross-sectional shape of the recessed portion 15a may be appropriately changed, for example, to a rectangular shape. The recess may be formed on the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19, or may be formed on both the lower surface of the outer protrusion 15 and the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19.

外突部15の上面における径方向の内端部に、上方に向けて突出した補助突起15bが形成されている。補助突起15bは、全周にわたって連続して延びる突条状に形成されている。補助突起15bは縦断面視で矩形状を呈する。補助突起15bは、窪み部15aより径方向の内側に位置している。補助突起15bの上面は、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓9の先端部26の上端開口縁26bより上方に位置し、計量位置に位置する塗布栓9の先端部26の上端開口縁26bより下方に位置する。補助突起15bの容積は、窪み部15aの容積より大きくなっている。

Auxiliary projection 15b is formed in the shape of a ridge continuously extending over the entire circumference. The auxiliary projection 15b has a rectangular shape when viewed in longitudinal section. The auxiliary projection 15b is positioned radially inward of the recessed portion 15a. The upper surface of the auxiliary projection 15b is located above the upper opening edge 26b of the tip portion 26 of the application plug 9 positioned at the application position and below the upper opening edge 26b of the tip portion 26 of the application plug 9 positioned at the weighing position.

被係止部16は、吐出孔8のうちの中径部8c内に容器軸O方向に移動自在に配設されている。突出位置に位置した被係止部16が、吐出孔8の上段部8eに係止されることにより、押圧部材14が吐出孔8内から計量筒部材7の外部へ抜けることが規制される。 The locked portion 16 is arranged in the middle diameter portion 8c of the discharge hole 8 so as to be movable in the container axis O direction. The engaged portion 16 located at the projecting position is engaged with the upper step portion 8 e of the discharge hole 8 , thereby restricting the pressing member 14 from coming out of the discharge hole 8 to the outside of the measuring cylinder member 7 .

押圧部材14の下端開口縁は、突き上げ部21の上面の内周部分と容器軸O方向で対向している。押圧部材14の下端開口縁は、突当り位置に位置した状態で、吐出孔8の下段部8dより下方に位置している。図示の例では、押圧部材14の下端開口縁は、突当り位置に位置した状態で、吐出孔8の下端より上方に位置している。塗布栓9の突き上げ部21は、塗布位置から計量位置に移動するときに、押圧部材14の下端開口縁を突き上げて押圧部材14を突出位置に位置させる。この際、被係止部16は、吐出孔8の上段部8eと、突き上げ部21と、により容器軸O方向の移動が抑止される。 The lower opening edge of the pressing member 14 faces the inner peripheral portion of the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 in the container axis O direction. The lower end opening edge of the pressing member 14 is positioned below the lower step portion 8d of the discharge hole 8 in a state of being positioned at the abutting position. In the illustrated example, the lower end opening edge of the pressing member 14 is positioned above the lower end of the discharge hole 8 while positioned at the abutting position. The push-up portion 21 of the applicator plug 9 pushes up the lower opening edge of the pressing member 14 to position the pressing member 14 at the projecting position when moving from the coating position to the weighing position. At this time, the engaged portion 16 is restrained from moving in the container axis O direction by the upper step portion 8 e of the discharge hole 8 and the push-up portion 21 .

塗布容器1は、中栓部材4、計量筒部材7、塗布栓9、および押圧部材14が組み立てられてなる計量塗布具を、内容物の充填された容器本体2の口部3に装着した後に、キャップ体10を口部3に螺着することで形成される。 The applicator container 1 is assembled with the inner plug member 4, the measuring tube member 7, the applicator plug 9, and the pressing member 14, and after the metering applicator is attached to the mouth portion 3 of the container main body 2 filled with the contents, , is formed by screwing the cap body 10 to the mouth portion 3 .

以下、本実施形態の塗布容器1の作用について説明する。 The action of the application container 1 of this embodiment will be described below.

図2に示すように、塗布容器1の使用前では、塗布栓9の栓筒22の下端部がシリンダ筒12の周壁の内側に嵌合して、計量室6と連通孔5との連通が遮断されている。
容器本体2内の内容物を被塗布部Sに塗布するには、まず、キャップ体10を上側へ移動させて容器本体2の口部3から離脱させ、吐出孔8および塗布栓9の先端部26を容器外部に露出させる。ここで、キャップ体10が離脱される際には、引き上げ筒31の引き上げ突起31aと、塗布栓9の先端部26の被係合部26aと、が互いに容器軸O方向に係合することで、キャップ体10により塗布栓9が引き上げられて計量位置に移動する。
As shown in FIG. 2, before the application container 1 is used, the lower end of the stopper cylinder 22 of the application stopper 9 is fitted inside the peripheral wall of the cylinder cylinder 12 so that the measurement chamber 6 and the communication hole 5 are not communicated with each other. is blocked.
In order to apply the contents in the container body 2 to the part to be coated S, first, the cap body 10 is moved upward and detached from the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2, and the discharge hole 8 and the tip end portion of the coating plug 9 are removed. 26 is exposed outside the container. Here, when the cap body 10 is detached, the lifting projection 31a of the lifting tube 31 and the engaged portion 26a of the tip portion 26 of the application plug 9 are engaged with each other in the container axis O direction. , the applicator plug 9 is pulled up by the cap body 10 and moved to the weighing position.

この際、口部3の雄ねじ部、およびキャップ体10の雌ねじ部は、二条ねじであるため、一条ねじである構成と比較して、ねじのリードが大きくなる。このため、キャップ体10の周方向の回転量に対する容器軸O方向の変位量を大きくすることができる。これにより、塗布栓9を速やかに上側に移動させることができるとともに、キャップ体10を容器本体2の口部3から速やかに離脱させることができる。 At this time, since the male threaded portion of the mouth portion 3 and the female threaded portion of the cap body 10 are double-threaded, the lead of the thread is increased as compared with the single-threaded configuration. Therefore, the amount of displacement in the direction of the container axis O relative to the amount of rotation of the cap body 10 in the circumferential direction can be increased. As a result, the applicator plug 9 can be quickly moved upward, and the cap body 10 can be quickly removed from the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 .

図3に示すように、塗布栓9が計量位置へ移動させられると、栓筒22の上部が、吐出孔8の大径部8aに嵌合し、かつ突き上げ部21の上面の外周縁部が、吐出孔8の下段部8dに当接することで、流通路Xと計量室6との連通を遮断する。この際、栓筒22の下端部が、中栓部材4のシリンダ筒12内から上方に離脱することで、計量室6と連通孔5とが連通する。またこの際、栓筒22の第2係合突部22aが、吐出孔8の大径部8aに形成された第1係合突部8fを上方に乗り越え、第1係合突部8fに第2係合突部22aの下側から係合する。またこの際、突き上げ部21の上面の内周部分が、押圧部材14の下端開口縁を突き上げて、押圧部材14を突出位置に位置させる。 As shown in FIG. 3, when the applicator plug 9 is moved to the measuring position, the upper portion of the plug cylinder 22 is fitted into the large diameter portion 8a of the discharge hole 8, and the outer peripheral edge of the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 is , the communication between the flow path X and the measuring chamber 6 is cut off by coming into contact with the lower part 8 d of the discharge hole 8 . At this time, the measuring chamber 6 and the communicating hole 5 are communicated with each other by the lower end of the stopper tube 22 being removed upward from the inside of the cylinder tube 12 of the inner plug member 4 . At this time, the second engaging projection 22a of the stopper tube 22 climbs over the first engaging projection 8f formed in the large diameter portion 8a of the discharge hole 8, and the first engaging projection 8f moves toward the first engaging projection 8f. It engages from the lower side of the 2-engagement protrusion 22a. At this time, the inner peripheral portion of the upper surface of the push-up portion 21 pushes up the lower opening edge of the pressing member 14 to position the pressing member 14 at the projecting position.

この状態から、さらに容器本体2の口部3に対してキャップ体10が上側へ移動することで、キャップ体10の引き上げ筒31の引き上げ突起31aが、塗布栓9の先端部26の被係合部26aを上方に乗り越えて、キャップ体10が容器本体2および塗布栓9から取り外される。 From this state, the cap body 10 is further moved upward with respect to the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 , so that the lifting protrusion 31 a of the lifting tube 31 of the cap body 10 is engaged with the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 . The cap body 10 is removed from the container body 2 and the applicator plug 9 by climbing over the portion 26a.

次いで、塗布栓9が計量位置に位置した状態で、塗布容器1を倒立姿勢にすることで、容器本体2内の内容物を連通孔5を通して計量室6内に流入させる。
次いで、図4に示すように、計量位置に位置する塗布栓9の先端部26を、被塗布部Sに押し付けると、塗布栓9は、塗布位置に向けて移動する。この過程において、栓筒22の上部が吐出孔8から下方に離脱し、外挿筒24が中栓部材4の規制部11bに突き当たり、栓筒22の下端部がシリンダ筒12の周壁の内側に嵌合される。これにより、計量室6と連通孔5との連通が遮断されるとともに、流通路Xと計量室6とが連通することで、計量室6内の一定量の内容物が、流通路Xを通して被塗布部Sに塗布される。
Next, with the applicator plug 9 positioned at the weighing position, the applicator container 1 is placed in an inverted position so that the contents in the container main body 2 flow into the weighing chamber 6 through the communication hole 5 .
Next, as shown in FIG. 4, when the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 positioned at the measuring position is pressed against the part to be applied S, the applicator plug 9 moves toward the applicator position. In this process, the upper portion of the plug tube 22 is disengaged downward from the discharge hole 8 , the external tube 24 abuts against the restricting portion 11 b of the inner plug member 4 , and the lower end of the plug tube 22 moves inside the peripheral wall of the cylinder tube 12 . mated. As a result, the communication between the measurement chamber 6 and the communication hole 5 is cut off, and the flow path X and the measurement chamber 6 are communicated with each other. It is applied to the application part S.

この際、突出位置に位置している押圧部材14の外突部15の上面が、被塗布部Sに押し付けられ、押圧部材14が突当り位置に移動する。これにより、被係止部16が、上段部8eから下方に離間し、外突部15の下面が、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aに当接する。
図示の例では、外突部15の補助突起15bを被塗布部Sに押し付けると、図5に示されるように、補助突起15bは容器軸O方向に圧縮変形しつつ、押圧部材14のうち、吐出孔8の内側に位置する部分は、容器軸O方向に沿う計量室6側に向けて弾性変位する。
At this time, the upper surface of the outer projecting portion 15 of the pressing member 14 positioned at the projecting position is pressed against the coated portion S, and the pressing member 14 moves to the abutment position. As a result, the locked portion 16 is separated downward from the upper step portion 8 e , and the lower surface of the outer projecting portion 15 abuts the upper end opening edge 19 a of the discharge cylinder 19 .
In the illustrated example, when the auxiliary projection 15b of the outer projecting portion 15 is pressed against the application target portion S, as shown in FIG. A portion positioned inside the discharge hole 8 is elastically displaced toward the weighing chamber 6 side along the container axis O direction.

そして使用後(塗布後)は、キャップ体10の引き上げ筒31の下端部を、塗布栓9の先端部26内に嵌合させつつ、引き上げ筒31の引き上げ突起31aを、先端部26の被係合部26aに被係合部26aの上方から当接させた状態で、キャップ体10の雌ねじ部を容器本体2の口部3の雄ねじ部に螺合することによって、引き上げ突起31aを、被係合部26aを下方に乗り越えさせるとともに、キャップ体10を容器本体2の口部3に装着する。 After use (after application), the lower end portion of the lifting tube 31 of the cap body 10 is fitted into the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9, and the lifting projection 31a of the lifting tube 31 is engaged with the tip portion 26. By screwing the female threaded portion of the cap body 10 into the male threaded portion of the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 in a state where the mating portion 26a is brought into contact with the engaged portion 26a from above, the lifting protrusion 31a is engaged. The cap body 10 is attached to the mouth portion 3 of the container body 2 while the joint portion 26a is pushed downward.

以上説明したように、本実施形態による塗布容器1によれば、軟材質で形成された押圧部材14の外突部15の上面が、塗布位置に位置する塗布栓9の先端部26の上端開口縁26bに対して、同等の容器軸O方向の位置に位置しているので、被塗布部Sに内容物を塗布する際に、外突部15を被塗布部Sに押し付けて弾性変形させることができる。これにより、被塗布部Sに内容物を塗布する際に、被塗布部Sに対する押し付け力、および衝撃力などを緩和若しくは吸収することが可能になり、被塗布部Sに対してソフトな感触を与えることができる。 As described above, according to the applicator container 1 according to the present embodiment, the upper surface of the outer projecting portion 15 of the pressing member 14 made of a soft material is the upper end opening of the tip portion 26 of the applicator plug 9 positioned at the application position. Since it is located at the same position in the direction of the container axis O with respect to the edge 26b, when the contents are applied to the part to be coated S, the outer projecting part 15 is pressed against the part to be coated S and elastically deformed. can be done. As a result, when the content is applied to the coated portion S, it is possible to reduce or absorb the pressing force and impact force on the coated portion S, and the coated portion S has a soft feel. can give.

外突部15が、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aに容器軸O方向で対向しているので、押圧部材14が、吐出孔8内から計量筒部材7の内部に抜けるのを防ぐことでき、押圧部材14が被係止部16を備えるので、押圧部材14が、吐出孔8内から計量筒部材7の外部に抜けるのを防ぐことができる。 Since the outer projecting portion 15 faces the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 in the direction of the container axis O, the pressing member 14 can be prevented from slipping out of the discharge hole 8 into the measuring cylinder member 7. Since the pressing member 14 has the locked portion 16 , the pressing member 14 can be prevented from slipping out of the measuring tube member 7 from the discharge hole 8 .

押圧部材14が、突当り位置と突出位置との間を容器軸O方向に移動自在に配設されているので、押圧部材14を突出位置に位置させた状態で、外突部15を被塗布部Sに押し付けると、押圧部材14が突当り位置に移動することとなる。したがって、外突部15を被塗布部Sに押し付ける当初に、押圧部材14を突出位置に位置させておくことにより、被塗布部Sに衝撃力を加えにくくすることが可能になり、被塗布部Sに対してソフトな感触を確実に与えることができる。 Since the pressing member 14 is disposed so as to be movable in the direction of the container axis O between the abutment position and the projecting position, the outer projecting portion 15 is moved to the coated portion while the pressing member 14 is positioned at the projecting position. When pressed against S, the pressing member 14 moves to the abutting position. Therefore, by positioning the pressing member 14 at the projecting position at the beginning of pressing the outer projecting portion 15 against the coated portion S, it is possible to make it difficult to apply an impact force to the coated portion S. A soft feeling can be surely given to S.

塗布栓9が、塗布位置から計量位置に移動するときに、押圧部材14を、容器軸O方向に突き上げて突出位置に位置させる突き上げ部21を有するので、計量室6内で計量された内容物を、被塗布部Sに塗布するのに先立って、押圧部材14を突当り位置から突出位置に引き上げる操作が不要になり、外突部15を被塗布部Sに押し付ける当初に、押圧部材14を必ず突出位置に位置させておくことができる。 When the applicator plug 9 moves from the application position to the weighing position, the pressing member 14 is pushed up in the direction of the container axis O and positioned at the projecting position. is not required to lift the pressing member 14 from the abutting position to the projecting position prior to applying to the coated portion S, and the pressing member 14 is always lifted when the outer protrusion 15 is pressed against the coated portion S. It can be left in a protruding position.

外突部15に、外突部15が吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aに当接した状態で、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aとの間に隙間を設ける窪み部15aが形成されているので、外突部15が、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aに当接した状態で、被塗布部Sに強く押し付けられたときに、外突部15と、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aと、の間の隙間を埋めるように、外突部15が弾性変形することとなる。したがって、外突部15が、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aと、被塗布部Sと、により挟まれた状態であっても、外突部15の柔軟性を確保することが可能になり、被塗布部Sに対してソフトな感触を確実に与えることができる。 The outer projection 15 is formed with a recess 15a that provides a gap between the outer projection 15 and the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 when the outer projection 15 is in contact with the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19. , when the outer protrusion 15 is strongly pressed against the coated portion S while in contact with the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19, the outer protrusion 15, the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19, The outer protrusion 15 is elastically deformed so as to fill the gap between them. Therefore, even when the outer protrusion 15 is sandwiched between the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 and the coated portion S, it is possible to secure the flexibility of the outer protrusion 15. It is possible to surely give a soft feel to the part S to be coated.

外突部15が、全周にわたって連続して延びているので、被塗布部Sに対する外突部15の接触面積を広く確保することが可能になり、被塗布部Sに対してソフトな感触を確実に与えることができる。 Since the outer protrusion 15 extends continuously over the entire circumference, it is possible to ensure a large contact area of the outer protrusion 15 with respect to the part to be coated S, and the part to be coated S has a soft feeling. can definitely give.

外突部15における径方向の内端部に補助突起15bが形成されているので、被塗布部Sに内容物を塗布する際に、外突部15の補助突起15bを被塗布部Sに押し付けて弾性変形させることで、補助突起15bに径方向で隣接する流通路Xも弾性変形することとなる。したがって、被塗布部Sに内容物を塗布する際に、流通路Xの流路断面積が拡縮することにより、空気置換が容易になり、計量室6の内容物を安定して被塗布部Sに供給することができる。 Since the auxiliary projection 15b is formed at the inner end portion in the radial direction of the outer protrusion 15, the auxiliary projection 15b of the outer protrusion 15 is pressed against the coated portion S when the content is applied to the coated portion S. By elastically deforming the auxiliary projection 15b, the flow path X radially adjacent to the auxiliary projection 15b is also elastically deformed. Therefore, when the content is applied to the portion to be coated S, the cross-sectional area of the flow path X expands and contracts, facilitating air replacement, and the content of the measurement chamber 6 can be stably applied to the portion to be coated S. can be supplied to

次に、本発明の第2実施形態に係る塗布容器50を、図6および図7を参照しながら説明する。

図示の例では、キャップ体10の外嵌筒28は、吐出筒19より上方に位置している。外嵌筒28の下端開口縁が、外突部29において、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aに位置する部分のうち、窪み部15aより径方向の外側に位置する部分の上面に当接している。
A covering wall 27 is provided on the outer projecting portion 29 of the pressing member 30 and extends downward to cover the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 from the outside in the radial direction when the pressing member 30 is positioned at the projecting position. ing. The covering wall 27 is provided on the outer peripheral edge of the outer protrusion 29 . The cover wall 27 is formed in a cylindrical shape and extends continuously over the entire circumference. The lower opening edge of the cover wall 27 is positioned below the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 when the pressing member 30 is positioned at the projecting position. A connection portion between the cover wall 27 and the outer protrusion 29 is formed in a curved surface shape protruding outward in the radial direction.
In the illustrated example, the outer fitting cylinder 28 of the cap body 10 is located above the discharge cylinder 19 . The lower opening edge of the outer fitting cylinder 28 abuts on the upper surface of the portion of the outer protrusion 29 positioned at the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 and located radially outside the recessed portion 15a. .

以上説明したように、本実施形態による塗布容器50によれば、外突部29に被覆壁27が設けられているので、図7に示されるように、押圧部材30が突出位置に位置し、外突部29と、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aと、の間に容器軸O方向の隙間が生じても、この隙間が被覆壁27により径方向の外側から覆われることとなる。したがって、押圧部材30を突出位置に位置させた状態で、外突部29を被塗布部Sに押し付けたときに、押圧部材30が突当り位置に移動して前記隙間が無くなっても、被塗布部Sにある例えば髪の毛などが、外突部29と、吐出筒19の上端開口縁19aと、の間に挟まれるのを防ぐことができる。 As described above, according to the application container 50 according to the present embodiment, the covering wall 27 is provided on the outer projecting portion 29, so that the pressing member 30 is positioned at the projecting position as shown in FIG. Even if there is a gap in the direction of the container axis O between the outer protrusion 29 and the upper opening edge 19a of the discharge tube 19, this gap is covered with the covering wall 27 from the outside in the radial direction. Therefore, when the pressing member 30 is positioned at the projecting position and the outer projecting portion 29 is pressed against the coated portion S, even if the pressing member 30 moves to the abutting position and the gap disappears, It is possible to prevent hair, for example, on S from being caught between the outer protrusion 29 and the upper end opening edge 19a of the discharge cylinder 19 .
