Description
BACKGROUND

[0001] 1. Field of Invention

[0002] The present utility relates to a powder case, more particularly, to a powder case that prevents dispersing of the powder when adhering the powder on a brush.

[0003] 2. Description of Prior Art

[0004] The conventional powder case, as described in FIG. 1, includes a case 1 which has an outer case 2. The outer case 2 has a receiving portion 3 and a tray 5. The receiving portion 3 receives the powder 4. And the tray 5 is for filling a part of the powder from the receiving portion 3, and is formed at an upper part of the receiving portion 3. The receiving portion 3 contains a puff 6 or a brush for adhering the powder. Also, a lid 7 is screwed to the case 1 in order to prevent separation of the puff 6 or the brush.

[0005] But the conventional powder case is inconvenient to use. A user should to separate the tray 5 whenever taking out the powder from the receiving portion 3, fix the tray 5 into the receiving portion 3 again, and then adhere the power on the puff 6 or brush. Accordingly, whenever adhering the powder on the puff 6 or brush, the powder 4 is dispersed around. Accordingly, there is a loss of the powder and circumference is unclean.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] In order to overcome the conventional problems, an object of the present utility is to provide a powder case that is easy to adhere the powder on a brush and prevents dispersing of the powder when adhering the powder on a brush.

[0007] In order to accomplish the object, the powder case comprises a lower case for receiving powder and being formed with a conjunction protrusion around upper peripheral; and an upper case including hook to be coupled with the conjunction protrusion on the inner peripheral surface of the lower case, a cylindrical housing formed vertically from the upper center to the lower, a ledge formed along middle peripheral of the housing, for locking a flange of a brush, and an array of apertures at the bottom of the housing.

[0008] Consequently, the present utility has some advantages as follows.

[0009] If the end portion of the brush is inserted into the inner of the housing of the powder case after leading out a slider of the brush, the slider is inserted into the case while the flange of the slider is locked on the ledge of the housing, Accordingly, the brush adheres the powder through the apertures. That is, a user may adhere the powder on the brush by only inserting the brush into the housing. The inserting work is very comfortable, and the loss of the powder is prevented, and a problem of the uncleanness of the circumference is solved.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0010] These and other features, and advantages of the present utility will become better understood with regard to the following description, appended claims, and accompanying drawings, in which like components are referred to by like reference numerals. In the drawings:

[0011] FIG. 1 is a plane of a conventional powder case.

[0012] FIG. 2 is a fragmentary perspective of a powder case according to the present utility.

[0013] FIG. 3 is a plane of a powder case coupling with a brush according to an embodiment of the present utility.

[0014] FIG. 4 is a plane of a powder case coupling with a brush according to another embodiment of the present utility.

[0015] FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective of the powder case according to another embodiment of the present utility.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0016] Hereinafter, preferred embodiment of the present utility will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] As described in FIG. 2, the powder case 11 according to the present utility includes a lower case 12 and an upper case 15.

[0018] The lower case 12 receives the powder 14 in inner portion of itself and is formed with the conjunction protrusion 13 around upper peripheral.

[0019] The upper case 15 is formed with the hook 16 so as to be coupled to the conjunction protrusion 13 on the inner peripheral surface of the lower case 12. The upper case 15 includes a cylindrical housing 17, which is formed vertically from upper center to the lower. A ledge 18 is formed along middle peripheral of the housing 17 for locking a flange 24 of a brush 21. And, arrays of apertures 19 are formed at the bottom of the housing 17.

[0020] According to the present utility, the powder case 11 of the one time use possesses the powder 14 in the lower case 12, and couples the conjunction protrusion 13 to the hook 16 of the upper case 15.

[0021] In order to couple the brush 21 to the housing 17 of the powder case 11, as described in FIG. 3, a slider 23 of the brush 21 should be led out for gathering the brush fur 25 to inside of the slider 23. And then, as described in FIG. 4, the end of the brush 21 is led into the housing 17.

[0022] When leading the brush 21 into the housing 17, a flange 24 of the slider 23 is locked by the ledge 18. If pushing the brush 21 continuously, the slider 23 is inserted into the inner case 22, and the brush fur 25 is exposed outwardly, and the powder 14 provided through the apertures 19 of the housing 17 is adhered to the brush fur 25.

[0023] The powder case 11 according to the present utility is more comfortable than the conventional powder case because the powder 14 is adhered to the brush fur 25 with only a simple work such as pushing the brush 21 into the housing 17.

[0024] On the other hand, when adhering the powder 14 on the brush fur 25, the powder 14 may be dispersed around. In the present utility, all portions of the powder case are closed except only the apertures 19 of the housing 17, and the apertures 19 are intercepted by the brush fur 25. Accordingly, the powder is not dispersed into anywhere except the brush fur 25.

[0025] Consequently, the present utility may prevent undesired waste of the powder 14 and the user may use the powder 14 long times while reducing a cost and solve the conventional problem of the uncleanness of the circumference.

[0026] FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective of a powder case according to another embodiment of the present utility. The powder case further includes a cover 27 for covering the inner peripheral of the housing 17 included in the upper case 15. The powder case is emerged in condition that inner peripheral of the housing 17 is covered by the cover 27. And the powder in the lower case 12 is prevented from being dispersed outwardly through the apertures 19.

[0027] Consequently, the present utility has some advantages as follows. If the end of the brush 21 is inserted into the inner of the housing 17 of the powder case 11, 13 after leading out a slider 23 of the brush 21, the slider 23 is inserted into the case 22 while the flange 24 of the slider 23 is locked on the ledge 18 of the housing 17. Accordingly, the brush fur 25 adheres the powder 14 through the apertures 19. That is, a user may adhere the powder 14 on the brush fur 25 by only inserting the brush 21 into the housing 17. The inserting work is very comfortable, and the loss of the powder is prevented, and the uncleanness of the circumference is solved.
