Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rod-shaped substrate container, and more particularly to a container for accommodating a rod-shaped substrate such as a lipstick.

Conventionally, stick-shaped lipsticks have been widely used. As is well known, this type of lipstick is often handled using a holder that includes a grip part that is gripped by a user and an inner tube held by the grip part. Specifically, one end of the stick-shaped lipstick is housed in the inner tube of this holder, and the user holds the other end of the lipstick outside the inner tube while grasping the grip of the holder. part is used for coating.

Generally, this type of holder is used in conjunction with a cap that houses the inner tube of the lipstick so as not to expose the lipstick when carrying or storing the lipstick when not in use. In other words, in this case, the lipstick container is composed of the holder and the cap. The caps that make up these lipstick containers often have a simple cylindrical shape with a bottom, but caps with other shapes have also been proposed for special purposes. .

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a cap that is formed in the shape of a square box with an opening at one end and configured to receive lipstick held in a holder (container body) through the opening. This cap is formed into a box shape as described above in order to pivotally support a mirror plate holding a makeup mirror on one of its four sides. Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses a box having an opening at one end for receiving a cylindrical holder (container body) holding a lipstick, and a container portion extending approximately in the longitudinal direction, that is, in the direction of receiving the holder, on one side. A shaped cap is shown. This cap has the above-described structure in order to fit and accommodate a makeup brush in the container and pivotally support a mirror plate similar to the above.

As mentioned above, the lipstick container with the box-shaped cap has a clearly shaped cap compared to many conventional lipstick containers that have a bottomed cylindrical cap attached to the lipstick area. Because of the difference, and because the box-shaped cap could be attached and removed while placed on a table, etc., the product image could be seen as ``something special'' or even ``luxury.'' .

However, as explained above, in the conventional lipstick container, which has a box-shaped cap with all or part of the side surface being flat, and is configured to receive lipstick from the opening at one end, the table, etc. When storing lipstick in the cap placed on top of the cap, if the position of the lipstick is slightly misaligned with respect to the opening of the cap, it may cause an undesirable situation such as staining the area around the opening of the cap with lipstick. There is. Therefore, when storing lipstick in the cap of a conventional lipstick container of this type, it is necessary to align the lipstick with a certain degree of accuracy relative to the opening of the cap, or, if this is troublesome, to store the lipstick in the cap of the lipstick container. The lipstick is housed in the inner tube of the cap (that is, the lipstick is not drawn out from the inner tube), and the lipstick is housed in the cap.

As described above, paying attention to the position of the lipstick relative to the opening of the cap and storing the lipstick in the inner tube of the lipstick container are both troublesome tasks for the user. Furthermore, in this type of lipstick container, when the lipstick is stored in the cap, it is desirable to avoid the cap from accidentally coming off from the container body holding the lipstick. To this end, in Patent Document 1, a locking pawl is provided on the outer surface of the container body that protrudes toward the cap, and when the container body and the cap are combined, the locking pawl locks the cap (more specifically, pivots to the cap). A structure has been proposed in which each end plate is held down so that it can be rotated. In the lipstick container of Patent Document 1 with such a structure, when assembling the container body and the cap, it is necessary to pay attention to the position of the locking claw, which makes the assembly process even more troublesome. . For these reasons, conventional lipstick containers of this type are not convenient to use.

The problems with lipstick containers have been explained above, but the container consisting of a cap and holder as described above is also used as a container for stick-shaped base materials other than lipstick, such as stick glue, and in that case, the same problem as above is applied. problems may occur.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and includes a rod-shaped base material container in which a rod-shaped base material such as a lipstick is held in a rod-shaped base material holder, and the rod-shaped base material is housed inside a cap. The purpose is to eliminate the need for troublesome operations when storing materials inside a cap.

The rod-shaped base container according to the present invention includes:
A rod-shaped base material container consisting of a rod-shaped base material holder having a middle tube for accommodating a rod-shaped base material such as lipstick, and a grip part for holding the middle tube, and a cap for storing the middle tube of this rod-shaped base material holder inside. In,
The cap is
A storage box having an internal space for accommodating the inner cylinder, the storage box having a side opening extending between one end and the other end in the longitudinal direction of the storage box and communicating with the internal space, and a side opening formed at the one end or the other end. a storage box having an end opening that communicates with the internal space;
a lid body that opens and closes the side opening by swinging around a swing axis extending in the length direction;
and a lid urging means for urging the lid in the opening direction,
The lid body of the cap has a gripping mechanism for gripping the rod-shaped substrate holder when the rod-shaped substrate holder is arranged in the rod-shaped substrate storage position with respect to the storage box and the lid body is in the closed lid position where the side opening is closed. When the rod-shaped substrate holder moves inside the end opening toward the outside of the storage box and comes out of the rod-shaped substrate storage position, the engagement occurs. An engaging part is provided to release the
It is characterized by this.

Here, the above-mentioned "accommodation box length direction" is a direction parallel to the cylinder axis of the middle cylinder housed inside the accommodation box. Furthermore, the above-mentioned statement that the side opening "extends between one end and the other end in the longitudinal direction of the storage box" also means that it extends over the entire length of the storage box from one end to the other end. It shall also include extending over a portion. Furthermore, the above-mentioned "the rod-shaped substrate holder is arranged at a rod-shaped substrate storage position with respect to the storage box" refers to the position where the rod-shaped substrate held by the rod-shaped substrate holder is stored in the storage box. This means that the rod-shaped substrate holder is placed at (relative position to the storage box).

Note that the gripping portion of the rod-shaped substrate holder is desirably configured to close the end opening of the storage box when the rod-shaped substrate holder is placed at the rod-shaped substrate storage position.
And when the grip part is configured as described above,
The lid body has an end surface that faces the front end surface of the grip part of the rod-shaped substrate holder in the rod-shaped substrate storage position when the lid body is in the closed lid position,
The front end surface of the gripping portion has a recessed portion into which an engaging portion provided on the lid body is fitted;
The engaging portion is biased to protrude so as to elastically fit into the recess when the lid body is closed with the rod-shaped substrate holder in the rod-shaped substrate storage position.
Even more desirable.
Note that the front end surface of the gripping portion refers to the end surface facing the middle cylinder side held by the gripping portion.

Moreover, in the rod-shaped base material container according to the present invention,
The swing shaft is formed integrally with the lid body,
An extension portion extending radially outward of the swing shaft is provided at one end of the swing shaft,
The lid biasing means is formed of a tension coil spring that has one end locked to the extension and the other end to the storage box to rotate the swing shaft by pulling the extension. ,
This is desirable.

In the rod-shaped base material container of the present invention, the storage box constituting the cap has a side opening extending between one end and the other end in the length direction of the cap and communicating with the internal space, and a side opening at the one end or the other end. Since the end opening is formed and communicates with the internal space, the user can move the rod-shaped base material holder, which stores a rod-shaped base material such as lipstick in the inner cylinder, by grasping its gripping part. Thereby, the rod-shaped substrate held by the rod-shaped substrate holder can be easily accommodated in the internal space of the storage box through the side opening.

When the rod-shaped substrate holder is arranged in the rod-shaped substrate storage position with respect to the storage box and the lid is in the closed lid position that closes the side opening, the lid of the cap has a grip on the rod-shaped substrate holder. Since the engaging part is provided to keep the lid in the closed position by engaging with a part of the part, the user can close the lid after placing the rod-shaped substrate into the storage box through the side opening. By simply swinging the lid to the lid position, this closed lid position is automatically maintained by the engaging portion. Furthermore, when the rod-shaped substrate holder moves inside the end opening of the storage box to the outside of the storage box and is removed from the rod-shaped substrate storage position, the engagement portion stops the engagement with the gripping portion of the rod-shaped substrate holder. Since it is configured to be released, the above-mentioned engagement is released simply by the user moving the rod-shaped substrate holder to the outside of the storage box. When this engagement is released, the lid biased by the lid biasing means is automatically opened, so the user can move the rod-shaped base material out of the storage box through the side opening of the storage box. In other words, it can be taken out of the cap and used. As described above, according to the rod-shaped base material container of the present invention, the operation of taking out the rod-shaped base material from the cap can be easily performed.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a rod-shaped base material container 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The rod-shaped substrate container 1 is, for example, a lipstick container, and is composed of a rod-shaped substrate holder 10 and a cap 20 that accommodates a portion of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 therein. The rod-shaped substrate holder 10 and the cap 20 are basically made of synthetic resin such as ABS resin. However, the cap 20 is not limited thereto, and in particular, a part of the cap 20 may be made of other materials such as metal for aesthetic reasons.

The rod-shaped base material holder 10 includes a roughly cylindrical middle tube 12 that accommodates a rod-shaped lipstick 11, a roughly cylindrical outer tube 13 that holds the middle tube 12 from the outside, and an outer tube 13 disposed outside the outer tube 13. The helical tube 14 has a generally cylindrical shape, and a grip part 15 that holds the helical tube 14 from one end side (lower end side in the figure). The inner cylinder 12, outer cylinder 13, and spiral cylinder 14 are arranged coaxially with each other. Linear slits (not shown) extending in a direction parallel to the cylinder axis are formed in the peripheral wall of the outer cylinder 13 at an angular interval of 180° (degrees) from each other. This outer cylinder 13 is connected to a grip part 15, and they are integrally rotatable relative to the spiral cylinder 14. The spiral tube 14 has a spiral groove (not shown) carved in the inner surface of its circumferential wall, which repeats in the direction of the tube axis. The middle cylinder 12 has protrusions (not shown) protruding radially outward near one end (lower end in the figure) at an angular interval of 180 degrees from each other. Each of these convex portions passes through the slit of the outer tube 13, and the tip end thereof is housed in the helical groove of the helical tube 14.

Therefore, for example, when the grip part 15 is rotated relative to the spiral cylinder 14 while holding the helical cylinder 14, the convex part of the middle cylinder 12 is rotated by the outer cylinder 13 which rotates integrally with the grip part 15. Ru. As a result, these convex portions move within the slit while being guided within the spiral groove of the spiral tube 14, and the middle tube 12 moves in the direction of the tube axis, so that the lipstick 11 held in the middle tube 12 is moved. moves forward and backward relative to the outer cylinder 13 in the cylinder axis direction. In this way, by rotating the grip portion 15, the lipstick 11 can be drawn out from the outer tube 13 or stored in the outer tube 13 depending on the direction of rotation.

FIG. 2 is a front view of the gripping portion 15 viewed from the tip side of the lipstick 11. The grip portion 15 will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 2 as well. The front end surface 15a of the gripping portion 15 is a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner tube 12, outer tube 13, and spiral tube 14, that is, to the axial direction of the lipstick 11. A recess 15b dug toward the rear end of the grip portion 15 is formed in the front end surface 15a. The four recesses 15b are formed at angular intervals of 90 degrees from each other in the direction around the cylinder axis, in other words, they extend in a direction parallel to each outer surface of the gripping portion 15 having a substantially quadrangular prism shape. ing.

On the other hand, the cap 20 includes a storage box 21 that accommodates the inner cylinder 12, outer cylinder 13, and spiral cylinder 14 of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10, and a lid body 22. The storage box 21 has a generally cylindrical internal space 23 for accommodating the inner cylinder 12, outer cylinder 13, and spiral cylinder 14 of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10. The storage box 21 further includes a side opening 23a that extends almost the entire length of the storage box between one end and the other end in the length direction (arrow L direction) of the storage box 21, and a side opening 23a that is one end of the cap 20. It has an end opening 23b opened at the end surface 21a. These side openings 23a and end openings 23b both communicate with the internal space 23. The length of the side opening 23a is desirably longer in order to facilitate the operation of inserting and removing the middle cylinder 12 and the like into and out of the internal space 23 through the side opening 23a. Note that the end surface 21a of the storage box 21 is formed perpendicular to the direction in which the internal space 23 extends.

The lid body 22 is swingable in the direction of arrow R about a swing shaft 24 extending in the length direction of the cap 20 (direction of arrow L). That is, the swing shaft 24 is held in a part of the storage box 21 so as to be rotatable around its axis via a bearing portion (not shown). Further, the lid body 22 is integrated with the swing shaft 24 via a connecting portion 25. Therefore, when the swing shaft 24 rotates around the axis, the lid body 22 swings in the direction of the arrow R as described above. By swinging in this manner, the lid body 22 can open and close the side opening 23a of the storage box 21. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the lid body 22 is in an open position, that is, in a position where the side opening 23a is opened.

As described above, the swingable lid body 22 is biased in the lid opening direction. That is, an extension part 24a extending radially outward is attached to one end part (left end part in FIG. 1) of the swing shaft 24, and a tension member as a lid biasing means is attached to the folded part of the extension part 24a. One end of the coil spring 26 is locked. A cylindrical spring locking member 27 is fixed inside the storage box 21, and the other end of the tension coil spring 26 is locked to this spring locking member 27. Therefore, the tension coil spring 26 urges the lid body 22 in the lid opening direction. Note that the biasing of the lid body 22 will be explained in more detail later with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8.

As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, an engaging portion 28 is provided at one end of the lid 22 in the length direction. The engaging portion 28 is disposed within a recess 22a formed on the back surface of the lid 22, and its left and right ends (upper and lower ends in FIG. 1) are accommodated in the linear groove of the lid 22. There is. To explain in more detail, the linear groove portion is constituted by a portion of the lid body 22 that sandwiches a portion of the left end portion and right end portion of the engaging portion 28 from above and below. Thereby, the engaging portion 28 is linearly movable relative to the lid body 22 in the length direction of the cap 20, that is, in the direction of arrow L in FIG.

Here, the engaging portion 28 will be explained in detail with reference to FIG. 4 as well. FIG. 4 is a plan view showing a state in which the engaging portion 28 is housed in the recess 22a when viewed from the depth direction of the recess 22a, and shows the lid body 22 constituting the above-mentioned linear groove. Parts are omitted. As shown in the figure, the left and right end portions of the engaging portion 28 are respectively constituted by arm portions 28b. The engaging portion 28 is made of relatively highly elastic synthetic resin or the like, and therefore each of the pair of arm portions 28b can be elastically deformed in a direction intersecting with its own longitudinal direction. On the other hand, sloped portions 22b are formed in the portions of the lid 22 that serve as side walls of the recessed portions 22a at positions facing the respective tips of the pair of arm portions 28b. In the above configuration, when no external force is applied to the engaging portion 28, the engaging portion 28 assumes the position shown in FIG. When the engaging part 28 is pushed into the recess 22a from this state, that is, to the left in the figure, each arm part 28b is elastically deformed so that its tip moves along the slope part 22b, and the engaging part 28 is The state shown in Figure (B) is reached. After this state is reached, when the pushing of the engaging portion 28 is stopped, each arm portion 28b returns to its original state due to its own elasticity, and the engaging portion 28 returns to the position shown in FIG.

Note that in order to maintain the engaging portion 28 in the state shown in FIG. 4A, mechanisms other than those described above may be applied. That is, for example, compression coil springs extending in the linear movement direction of the engagement part 28 are built into the left and right end parts of the engagement part 28, and the rear ends (the ends opposite to the tip part 28a) of the compression coil springs are provided. ) in contact with a part of the lid body 22, etc. can be applied. Furthermore, instead of the compression coil spring, leaf springs extending in a direction intersecting the linear movement direction of the engaging part 28 are arranged outside the left and right ends of the engaging part 28, and the tips of these leaf springs A mechanism for elastically pushing the engaging portion 28 toward the tip portion 28a by means of a portion may also be applied.

Hereinafter, the operation of the rod-shaped base material container 1 having the above configuration will be explained. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 is removed from the cap 20. When the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 is in this state, the user can grasp the grip portion 15 of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 and apply makeup using the lipstick 11 held by the rod-shaped substrate holder 10. Can be done. To use the lipstick 11 in this way, by rotating the grip portion 15 relative to the spiral tube 14 as described above, the lipstick 11 held in the inner tube 12 can be drawn out from the outer tube 13 or removed. It can be housed in the cylinder 13.

When the user has finished using the lipstick 11, the user can protect the lipstick 11 by storing the inner tube 12 in the cap 20 by the following operation. In this case, first, as shown in FIG. 5, the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 is placed so that the front end surface 15a of the gripping part 15 is in contact with the end surface 21a of the storage box 21 (see also FIG. 1). As described above, the end surface 21a of the storage box 21 is formed perpendicular to the direction in which the internal space 23 extends, and the front end surface 15a of the grip portion 15 is aligned with the cylinder axes of the inner cylinder 12, outer cylinder 13, and spiral cylinder 14. Since they are formed perpendicular to the direction, if the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 is arranged in the storage box 21 as described above, the inner cylinder 12, the outer cylinder 13, and the spiral cylinder 14 will be aligned in the direction of their cylinder axis. are arranged to match the direction in which the internal space 23 extends. Since the front end surface 15a of the gripping part 15 comes into close contact with the end surface 21a of the storage box 21, the internal space 23 of the storage box 21 is closed and dust etc. are prevented from entering there. Note that the position of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 shown in FIG. 5 is the aforementioned rod-shaped substrate storage position.

When arranging the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 in this manner, the user can easily insert the inner cylinder 12, outer cylinder 13, and spiral cylinder 14 into the inside of the storage box 21 by passing them through the side opening 23a of the storage box 21. It can be accommodated in the space 23. At this time, since the lid body 22 is in the open position, the side opening 23a can be used as described above. When the lid body 22 is in the open position, the state of the tension coil spring 26 and its surrounding parts is as shown in FIG. Note that FIG. 7 shows a cross-sectional shape of a portion taken along line AA in FIG.

The state of FIG. 7 is maintained by the action of the tension coil spring 26. In other words, as the tension coil spring 26 pulls the extension 24a of the swing shaft 24, the swing shaft 24 is biased to rotate clockwise in FIG. energized. The opening position of the lid body 22 may be determined by a part of the lid body 22 contacting an appropriate stopper portion while receiving the above-mentioned urging force, or alternatively, the opening position of the lid body 22 may be determined by a part of the lid body 22 contacting an appropriate stopper portion while receiving the above-mentioned urging force, or alternatively, The rotational biasing force may be in a state where no rotational biasing force is applied, and the swinging of the lid body 22 may be suppressed and defined.

After arranging the bar-shaped substrate holder 10 as shown in FIG. is swung around the swiveling shaft 24 toward the closed position. FIG. 6 shows the rod-shaped base material container 1 with the lid 22 in the closed lid position in this manner. This closed position of the lid body 22 is maintained by the action of the engaging portion 28 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3. That is, when the lid 22 is pushed in as described above, the engaging portion 28 protruding from the lid 22 hits the edge of the front end surface 15a of the grip portion 15 slightly before the lid 22 reaches the closed position. . When the lid body 22 is pushed in as it is, the inclined back surface of the tip 28a of the engagement part 28 is pushed by the grip part 15, and the engagement part 28 moves the arm part 28b as shown in FIG. 4(B). It retreats inward (upper left in FIG. 3) while being elastically deformed.

When the lid 22 reaches the closed position shown in FIG. 6, the engaging portion 28 retracted in this manner will be aligned with the recess 15b of the grip portion 15. Thereupon, the engaging portion 28 protrudes again as shown in FIG. 4(A) due to the elasticity of the arm portion 28b, and is fitted into the recess 15b. In addition, since the four recesses 15b are formed in the gripping part 15 as described above, it is difficult to determine in what direction the gripping part 15 is oriented with respect to the storage box 21 (however, the outer surfaces of both are parallel to each other). Even if it is arranged, the engaging part 28 fits into any one of the four recesses 15b. As the engaging portion 28 fits into the recess 15b and engages with the grip portion 15 in this manner, the lid body 22 is maintained in the closed position even though it receives the biasing force from the tension coil spring 26. When the lid body 22 is in the closed position, the state of the tension coil spring 26 and its surrounding parts is as shown in FIG. The display method in FIG. 8 is the same as the display method in FIG. 7 described above. Further, the direction of arrow R2 shown in FIG. 8 is the direction in which the lid body 22 is swung when pressed by the user.

When the user uses the lipstick 11 next time, the user moves the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 outward through the end opening 23b of the storage box 21 and pulls it out from the storage box 21. When the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 is pulled out from the storage box 21 in this manner, the engaging portion 28 that has been fitted into the recess 15b of the gripping portion 15 is disengaged from the recess 15b. Then, the swing shaft 24 rotates around its axis due to the biasing force of the tension coil spring 26, and the lid body 22 swings in the direction of arrow R1 in FIG. 7 to be set at the lid open position shown in FIG. After reaching this state, the middle tube 12, outer tube 13, and spiral tube 14 of the rod-shaped substrate holder 10 can be taken out of the storage box 21 through the end opening 23b. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is also possible to easily take out the storage box 21 through the larger side opening 23a or through both the end opening 23b and the side opening 23a.

The embodiment of the rod-shaped base material container configured as a container for storing a rod-shaped lipstick has been described above, but the rod-shaped base material container of the present invention can also be used as a container for storing a rod-shaped base material other than lipstick, for example, the above-mentioned glue stick. It is also possible to configure it, and in such a case, the same effect can be achieved.
