Abstract

The spouting-type cosmetic container includes: a main container provided with an opening; a pipette tube spouting cosmetic; a cap unit detachably installed to the opening of the main container and including an inner cap and an outer cap encasing the inner cap; an up/down button installed to the upper side of the outer cap to move up and down for a preset stroke and having cam holes formed on the side wall to face the cams; a piston fixed to the lower side of the up/down button to move up and down with the up/down button; and an elastic member elastically reacting to move the up/down button and the piston upward and to spout the cosmetic accommodated in the main container out. A preset amount of cosmetic is discharged and user's convenience may be enhanced.

Claims (14)

1. A spouting-type cosmetic container comprising:

a main container provided with an opening formed at the top;

a pipette tube for spouting cosmetic material accommodated in the main container out;

a cap unit detachably installed to the opening of the main container and including an inner cap thread-coupled with the main container and an outer cap encasing the inner cap and provided with cams formed on the inner circumference thereof;

an up/down button installed to the upper side of the outer cap to move up and down for a preset stroke and having cam holes formed on the side wall to face the cams;

a piston fixed to the lower side of the up/down button to move up and down with the up/down button; and

an elastic member elastically reacting when the cap unit is separated from the main container to move the up/down button and the piston upward and to spout the cosmetic accommodated in the main container out,

wherein the piston has a T-shape and comprises:

a fixing protrusion extending from the upper center thereof upward and fixed to a fixing element of the up/down button; and

leak-proof segments protruding from both sides of the fixing protrusion outwardly to be in contact with an extension segment of the inner cap to prevent the cosmetic from leaking.

2. The spouting-type cosmetic container of claim 1 , wherein the cams make a pair of protrusions extending inwardly from an inner circumference of the outer cap at positions facing each other, the cam holes includes ‘/’-shaped slope guides formed in the lower side with a preset angle and penetrate the side wall of the up/down button at a position corresponding to the cams, the cams are supported and rotated clockwise by the slope guides when the up/down button is pressed to move the up/down button down and is transferred with elastic reaction of the elastic member when the cap unit is rotated and separated from the main container and rotates counterclockwise to support the slope guide such that the up/down button is gradually moved upwardly.

3. The spouting-type cosmetic container of claim 1 , further comprising a wiper provided between the inner cap and the opening of the main container to wipe down the cosmetic attached to the outer circumference of the pipette tube.

4. The spouting-type cosmetic container of claim 1 , further comprising a leak-proof element preventing the cosmetic from leaking between the inner cap and the wiper.

5. The spouting-type cosmetic container of claim 1 , further comprising a stopper provided between the opening of the main container and the outer cap and having a rotation-preventing protrusion to control the rotation of the outer cap within a preset rotational angle.
