Description

Cosmetic containers that can easily replace refill containers}

The present invention relates to a cosmetic container in which the refill container can be easily replaced. More specifically, a separation member is coupled between the container body and the refill container, and the refill container can be easily separated and replaced from the container body through the separation member. This relates to a cosmetic container that allows easy replacement of the refillable container.

In general, cream-type contents with high viscosity, such as gel or cream, are produced and sold in containers with wide openings, flat shapes, and screw-type lids.

In particular, cream cosmetics, which are widely used as basic cosmetics, are usually placed in cosmetic containers with wide openings and have a structure that opens and closes with a lid, considering the convenience of use or to use the cosmetics without waste.

In other words, the composition of such cosmetic containers consists of a storage container that is made of glass or synthetic resin and has a wide opening so that the contents can be accommodated inside, and a lid that opens and closes the opening of the storage container with a screw. They are generally constructed in a relatively low height form for convenience of use.

When you want to use the cream-type contents contained in the above cosmetic container, open the lid, then take an appropriate amount of the cream-type contents stored inside the container with your fingers or a separately provided spatula and spread it on the skin in the desired area.

However, conventional cosmetic containers do not have a structure to store the spatula, so there are difficulties in management such as losing the spatula during use, carrying, or storage, or contaminating the spatula with foreign substances.

In order to solve this problem, a container accessory holding tool was disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-open No. 2004-331105. In the prior art, a ring-shaped annular plate was installed on the outer periphery of the container, and a hole was formed on one side of the annular plate. It is characterized in that it is formed so that accessories (toiletries) can be inserted and stored in the hole.

However, since the conventional cosmetic container does not have a structure in which the refill container containing the contents and the container body are separated from each other, when the contents are all exhausted, the refill container cannot be refilled and used separately, and as a result, there is no choice but to repurchase the cosmetic container. There was a problem with this being wasted and increasing the economic burden on users.

In order to solve the above problem, a supplementary container was disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-173723. The prior art is provided with an inner container and an auxiliary part inside the outer container, but the auxiliary part is concealed inside the outer container and the inner container. , the auxiliary part is coupled with a release means and a release means having irregularities, so that the inner container comes out of the outer container as the auxiliary part rotates.

However, in the conventional cosmetic container, in order to refill the inner container, the inner container must be rotated from the outer container. At this time, only the upper part of the inner container is exposed to the outside of the outer container, making it inconvenient for the user to hold and rotate the inner container. There was a problem.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-331105 (published on November 25, 2004). “Container accessory maintenance tool” Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-173723 (announced on August 12, 2010). “Replenishment container”

In order to solve the above problem, the present invention combines the container body and the refill container with at least a portion of the separation member inserted, so that when the contents contained in the refill container are exhausted, the refill container is separated using the separation member.
