  • Patent number: 7128486
    Abstract: A feeding container (1, 101, 301) for a stick-form cosmetic material (A, B, C) comprises a sleeve (10, 110, 310) which accommodates a tubular holder (31, 131, 331) holding the base end of the stick-form cosmetic material (A, B, C). By constituting the holder (31, 131, 331) by a thin film, an appropriate clearance can be set between the cosmetic material (A, B, C) and the inner periphery of the sleeve (10, 110, 310) without providing a step in the outer periphery of the cosmetic material (A, B, C). The form of an opening portion of the holder (31, 131, 331) is corrected by the inner periphery of the sleeve (10, 110, 310) when the holder (31, 131, 331) is inserted into the sleeve (10, 110, 310), so the cosmetic material (A, B, C) can be fitted easily into the holder (31, 131, 331) in the sleeve (10, 110, 310).

  • Patent number: 6899484
    Abstract: A front cylinder and base are rotatably connected. Relative rotations cause stick-type cosmetic material retained by a core chuck member to slide forward and backward along an axial hole of the cylinder. Axially extending first slide grooves along an inner circumference of the hole have an inside diameter almost equal to a diameter of the material. Second grooves, deeper than the first, extend continuously from ends of the first grooves. Claws at a front-end section of the chuck retain the material and are slidably guided by the grooves. Back surfaces of the claws slide into contact with bottoms of the first grooves. Inner surfaces of the claws almost coincide with an inside diameter of the hole. If the material is loaded in the chuck with the claws at the second grooves, the claws elastically deform outward and the claws receive the material. With the claws at the first grooves, the claws tightly sandwich the material.

  • Patent number: 6896434
    Abstract: In a stick type cosmetic material feeding container 1, a stick type cosmetic material A retained at a front end of a core chuck member 30 moves in an axial direction in a front cylinder 10 by a feeding mechanism due to rotary operation of the front cylinder 10 and a base cylinder 20. A cylindrical body 34 which defines the advance limit and retreat limit of a feeding stroke is installed at a rear part of the core chuck member 30. Elastic engagement projections 37 which are spirally engaged with a roulette-shaped spiral 22 of the base cylinder 20 and have elasticity are installed at an outer circumference of the cylindrical body 34. Further, the cylindrical body 34 is provided with an elastic slit 34c for absorbing a shock in an axial direction.

  • Patent number: 6769826
    Abstract: A stick type cosmetic material feeding container which houses a stick type cosmetic material in such a manner that the stick type cosmetic material can be fed out prevents a spiral engagement mechanism from breaking at the uppermost limit or the like. The stick type cosmetic material feeding container further eliminates unsteadiness of the spiral engagement mechanism and can obtain the stress of slide due to the spiral engagement mechanism. A front cylinder 10 having a tip opening hole 11 through which a stick type cosmetic material advances and retreats is rotatably connected with a container body 3. A core chuck member 30 having a spiral section 34 is inserted in the container body 3 and a rotation regulating mechanism for synchronously rotating the front cylinder 10 and the core chuck member 30 is provided. Further, an elastic engagement section 68 is provided in a through hole 61 of an elastic cylindrical body 60 which rotates synchronously with the container body 3.

  • Patent number: 6588957
    Abstract: A cartridge type stick-shaped cosmetic material feeding container 1 comprises a cartridge 2 and a container body 3, and the cartridge 2 rotatably connects a base cylinder 20 and a front cylinder 10 having an opening hole 11 through which a stick-shaped cosmetic material A advances and retreats. The stick-shaped cosmetic material A is retained by claws 32 at a front end of a core chuck member 30 inserted and an O-ring 4 is wound to an outer circumference of the base cylinder 20. Due to a feeding mechanism in the cartridge 2, the stick-shaped cosmetic material A retained by the core chuck member 30 advances and retreats along the front cylinder 10 with rotations of the front cylinder 10 and the base cylinder 20. The feeding mechanism of the cartridge 2 inserted in the container body 3 functions when the base cylinder 20 and the container body 3 synchronously rotate by frictional resistance of an inner circumference of the container body and the O-ring 4 wound to the base cylinder 20.

  • Patent number: 6499897
    Abstract: A travelling section 30 for retaining the stick type cosmetic material is installed rotatably in an axial direction in an outer shell section 2 which is constituted by rotatably connecting a front cylinder 10 and a base cylinder 20. An outer circumferential surface 43 of a spiral cylinder 40 which is spirally engaged with a male screw section of the travelling section fits in a second slide surface provided on an inner circumferential surface of the base cylinder 20 which is one component of the outer shell section 2. Due to frictional force of this fit-in part, a cylindrical body and the spiral cylinder 40 are synchronously rotated. The travelling section 30 is engaged with an inner circumference of the front cylinder 10 and can slide only in an axial direction.

  • Patent number: 6450715
    Abstract: A push rod 50 is provided in a container body 4 and a cartridge 2 is attached to the container body 4 in such a manner that the cartridge 2 can be attached and detached. Due to rotations of the container body 4 and the cartridge 2, a feeding mechanism causes the push rod 50 in the container body 4 to spirally advance, pushes a core chuck member 20 in the cartridge 2, and causes a stick type cosmetic material retained at the core chuck member 20 to move forward and backward. The core chuck member 20 is always urged in a direction of retreat by a spring 3, and when the cartridge 2 is attached to the container body 4, the push rod 50 is pushed back by repulsion to an inside of the container body 4 so as to prevent the stick type cosmetic material from projecting out of the cartridge 2.

  • Patent number: 6334729
    Abstract: At least a part of a cylindrical body (20) is rotatably and unslidably housed in a front cylinder (10). A beam (30) for retaining a stick type cosmetic material (4) on the upper end side is made unrotatable and slidable to the front cylinder (10) by a sliding mechanism and made feedable by a rotation together with the cylindrical body (20) by a feeding mechanism. The beam (30) is always urged downward by a return spring (6). It is arranged such that a lower end part of the cylindrical body (20) is at the same level as that of a lower end part of the front cylinder (10) and a synchronous engagement section (26) formed on an inner circumferential surface of a lower end part of the cylindrical body (20) is synchronously engaged with a synchronous engagement shaft 43 provided at a bottom (42) of a container body (2). An O-ring (5) is installed between the front cylinder (10) and the container body (2).
