1 to 10 , the cosmetic container 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention has a storage portion 110, an attachment portion 120, a cover 130 and an applicator 10, and may be a conventional powder container (for example, a conventional powder container with an inner cover). structure), metal air cushion (for example, the container structure as disclosed in KR10-1471339B1), which has the same/similar structure as the metal air cushion and the ejection plate is made of a material other than metal, such as plastic, and the plastic material is applied. Various well-known shapes such as a vacuum (airless) powder type (refer to FIG. 2 ) or an air-cushion type shape of the ejection plate (for example, as disclosed in KR10-2018-0055324, a container structure including a dipping member for impregnating a cosmetic solution and an inner lid) In the cosmetic container 100, the applicator 10 can be magnetically attached to the cosmetic container 100 for storage, which will be described later.

It should be noted that, in the following embodiments, when the applicator 10 is attached by magnetic force, preferably, the cosmetic container 100 is configured as a metal air cushion structure, and preferably, the attachment portion 120 described later is a metal ejection plate However, it is not limited to this, and may be partially made of a metal material, and may be combined with various modifications as long as it does not conflict with known technical contents.

In other words, preferably, the attachment portion 120 is formed of the ejection plate 121 made of a metal material. However, in addition to the ejection plate 121 being formed of a metal material, various modifications are also possible, such as a layer of a metal material and a plastic material. The layer-by-layer structure, or the metal material and the plastic are arranged on the same layer, and the metal material is partially formed in the part where the magnetic force is required, or only the plastic material can be formed, as long as the known container structure does not conflict with this embodiment, it can be used. any structure.

First, the storage part 110 may store cosmetics. As described above, known cosmetic containers 100 of various shapes may be used, so that the manner in which the cosmetic is stored in the storage unit 110 may be any structure and configuration suitable for the cosmetic container 100 of various forms, and detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted instead of known techniques.

The attachment portion 120 is a structure for attaching the applicator 10. As an example, when the cosmetic container 100 is constituted by a metal air cushion type, it may be constituted by an ejection plate 121 and a vacuum pump structure (see FIG. 2). Alternatively, the above-described vacuum pump structure may be omitted, and the lower part of the ejection plate 121 may be modified into a shape in which the cosmetic is impregnated in an impregnating member such as a sponge. In this case, the attachment portion 120 may be constituted by the ejection plate 121 itself.

The ejection plate 121 may be made of a metal material that discharges cosmetic products from the storage portion 110 . In this case, the applicator 10 may be installed on the ejection plate 121 to be accommodated in the cosmetic container 100 , and may be arranged such that the applicator 10 is accommodated in the cosmetic container. Attached to the ejection plate 121 using magnetism (magnetic force) at 100, the applicator 10 may include a magnet 14, which will be described later.

In this way, in addition to the applicator 10 being magnetically attached to the ejection plate 121 made of metal, any one of the vacuum pump structures provided on the opposite side of the applicator 10 with the ejection plate 121 as a reference may be made of metal. , thereby acting magnetically on the applicator 10 .

For example, referring to FIG. 2 , the vacuum pump structure may include a guide portion 122 , a piston ring 123 , a cylinder 124 , and an elastic member 125 , which will be briefly described below.

The guide portion 122 is provided on the lower surface of the ejection plate 121 , and can guide the ejection of the cosmetic to a plurality of ejection holes (not shown) formed in the ejection plate 121 .

The cylinder 124 may be combined with the central part of the storage part 110, a piston ring 123 and a piston (not shown) may be disposed inside the cylinder 124, and a hole (not shown) for the inflow of cosmetics into the storage part 110 may be formed at the lower part of the cylinder 124 out the reference number).

When the pressure inside the cylinder 124 is lower than the pressure inside the storage part 110, the cosmetics can flow into the cylinder 124 through the holes of the cylinder 124, and the cosmetics flowing into the cylinder 124 can be discharged to the outside through the piston when the pressure inside the cylinder 124 increases. .

In addition, the elastic member 125 may be constituted by a spring, and may provide upward elastic force to the guide portion 122 so as to push the guide portion 122 moved to the lower portion upward. Thereby, the elastic member 125 can maintain the guide portion 122 and the ejection plate 121 in a substantially raised state, and the elastic member 125 can return the position of the ejection plate 121 moved downward by the user's pressure.

Such a structure and operation can be realized by applying a known vacuum pump structure. In such a structure, as an example, the elastic member 125, the ejection plate 121 and the like are made of metal materials, and the applicator 10 is magnetically attached to the attachment portion 120 to achieve fixation, Therefore, the applicator 10 does not come off from the cosmetic container 100, and can be stored stably.

At this time, when a mirror is provided on the upper part of the applicator 10, the applicator 10 can be stored in a manner of being fixed to the attachment portion 120, so even if the cosmetic container 100 is shaken, the applicator 10 can be maintained and stored without touching the mirror. The mirror can be prevented from being contaminated.

Moreover, even if the user arbitrarily installs the applicator 10 on the ejection plate 121, the applicator 10 can be arranged in the normal position by the magnetic force, and the applicator 10 can be arranged in the designed position, so that the closing of the cover 130 does not occur. If the hair 11 of the applicator 10 is caught in the cap 130 or the like, the applicator 10 can be kept intact.

In addition, as described above, the ejection plate 121 may have various modifications other than a single metal material, such as a structure in which a metal material layer and a plastic layer are laminated, or a metal material and a plastic layer are provided in the same layer and Parts that require magnetic force are partially formed of a metal material, or only made of a plastic material, and any structure can be used as long as the known container structure does not conflict with this embodiment.

As another example, when the cosmetic container 100 is constituted by a powder or an air cushion type, the attachment portion 120 may be constituted by the intermediate body 120B (see FIG. 6 ).

The intermediate body 120B may be disposed between the storage portion 110 and the cover 130 , and at this time, the applicator 10 may be installed in the intermediate body 120B and accommodated in the cosmetic container 100 .

Among them, the intermediate body 120B can divide the cosmetic stored in the storage part 110 and the applicator 10, and can open or close the storage part 110 by hinged rotation in a direction staggered from the cover 130, at least partially (the area where the applicator 10 is attached by magnetic force) ) is made of a metal material so that the applicator 10 can be attached magnetically.

The cover 130 is disposed on the storage part 110 so as to cover the cosmetic, and when the intermediate body 120B is disposed in the cosmetic container 100, the intermediate body 120B can also be covered. When the mirror 130 is provided, the opening of the shielding cover 130 of the intermediate body 120B is avoided, so that the user can use the mirror of the cover 130 regardless of whether the intermediate body 120B is opened or closed.

The applicator 10 is accommodated in the cosmetic container 100, and includes a plurality of hairs 11, a band portion 12, and handle portions 13 and 13A as a configuration for applying the cosmetic to the skin.

In particular, when the length/thickness/tension of the hair of the applicator 10 is not suitable, when the cosmetic is delivered to the skin, the makeup is not smooth, such as leaving a brush texture mark or cosmetic aggregation. For the same application surface Since it is necessary to repeatedly brush the brush for makeup, the present embodiment has the following configuration in order to improve such a problem.

First, the plurality of hairs 11 are densely packed to such an extent that the end on the side that delivers the cosmetic to the makeup site has a continuous surface shape.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10 , the thickness of the hair 11 may be 0.06 mm to 0.08 mm, the ratio of the thickness of the hair 11 to the length of the hair 11 may be 2 to 5×10 ⁻³ , and the thickness of the hair 11 is exposed to the length of the hair 11 . The ratio of the length of the bristles on the outside can be 3～8×10 ^-3 , the length of the bristles exposed on the outside in the length of the hair 11 can be 10mm～20mm, preferably 10mm～15mm, and the tension range of the hair 11 can be 30gf～350gf , preferably 100gf to 300gf, more preferably 150gf to 250gf.

Specifically, the thickness of the bristles 11 is 0.07 mm, the ratio of the thickness of the bristles 11 to the length of the bristles 11 can be 3.4-4.6×10 ^-3 , and the ratio of the thickness of the bristles 11 to the length of the bristles can be 5-7×10 ^-3 , The length of the bristles exposed to the outside may be 12 mm, and the tension range of the bristles 11 may be 210 gf.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 , the applicator 10 of the present embodiment as such can improve cosmetic satisfaction. Among them, 0 to 5 shown in FIG. 7 to FIG. 9 indicate that it is close to 0 when it is not satisfied, and the higher the satisfaction is, the closer it is to 5.
