Cosmetic container with a head-massage function
There is provided a cosmetic container that includes a head-massage function and that includes: a refill for containing a cosmetic liquid, a head-contact part that is attached to the refill, and that includes multiple projections, wherein the projections are arranged in one or more rows so that the projections disposed on the periphery of the head-contact part are higher than those disposed in the center of the head-contact part so that the projections form a curved shape, a case that detachably accommodates the refill inside the case, the case being slightly flattened in one direction in a plan view to form a jellyfish shape so as to enable the case's side to be gripped, an inner cap that accommodates the multiple projections so as to protect them, so that the inner cap prevents the cosmetic liquid from leaking out of the projections, a cap that accommodates the head-contact part and the inner cap so as to protect them, so that the cap holds in an upright state the refill, the head-contact part, and the case; and a through-hole provided to each of the multiple projections in the axial center of the through-hole, so that the through-hole serves as a supply path of the cosmetic liquid. The refill is changed according to a user's grasping power if the user holds the case with power equal to or more than a fixed level, whereby the cosmetic liquid is supplied in an amount according to the change of the refill from each tip of the projections.
1. A cosmetic container that includes a head-massage function, comprising:
a refill for containing a cosmetic liquid;
a head-contact part that is attached to the refill and that comprises multiple projections, the projections being arranged in one or more rows so that the projections disposed on the periphery of the head-contact part are higher than those disposed in the center of the head-contact part to be curved, with each tip of the projections rounded to have a bulging shape;
a case that detachably accommodates the refill, the case being slightly flattened in one direction in a plan view to form a jellyfish shape so as to enable the case's side to be gripped;
an inner cap that accommodates the multiple projections so as to protect them, with the inner cap preventing the cosmetic liquid from leaking out of the projections;
a cap that accommodates the head-contact part and the inner cap so as to protect them, the cap holding in an upright state the refill, the head-contact part, and the case; and
a through-hole provided to each of the multiple projections in the axial center thereof, the through-hole serving as a supply path of the cosmetic liquid;
wherein the refill is changed according to a user grasping the case with power equal to or more than a fixed level, whereby the cosmetic liquid is supplied in an amount according to the change of the refill from each tip of the multiple projections; and
wherein the refill and the head-contact part integrally form a cosmetic-liquid supply structure, and a refill container is formed by fitting the inner cap into the cosmetic-liquid supply structure, the refill container being used for refilling the cosmetic liquid into the cosmetic container that includes a head-massage function.
2. A cosmetic container that includes a head-massage function according to claim 1 ,
wherein both the case and the refill are composed of a flexible material, there being a space between the refill and the case, and
wherein when the case is only gently grasped by a user, only the case is changed to fit to a user's hand, and
wherein by applying to the case the power equal to or more than the level by which the case is changed to the extent that the case contacts with the refill, the refill is changed, and the cosmetic liquid is supplied.

The cosmetic container that includes a head-massage function according to claim 2 , further comprising a dedicated adapter for massaging the scalp, the dedicated adapter being attached to the projections for use with replacing the inner cap in a manner to accommodate the projections to provide softer massage to the scalp,
wherein the dedicated adapter for massaging the scalp, being configured to be detachable from the head-contact part, and being composed of a material that is more flexible than the projections of the head-contact part, includes multiple protruding storage portions whose number accords with that of the multiple projections, and
wherein each tip of the multiple storage portions, being configured to be round, includes a through-hole at the center of the tip, the through-hole of each tip of the storage portions being communicated with each of the through-holes of the projections.
