COSMETIC CONTAINER HAVING AN AIRLESS PUMP AND ENABLING THE QUANTITY OF CONTENT REMAINING IN THE CONTAINER TO BE CHECKED
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/083954
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an airless cosmetic container, and more particularly, to a cosmetic container having an airless pump, which enables a user to check the quantity of content remaining in the container prior to the complete consumption of the content, and which clearly indicates the state of complete consumption of the content. To accomplish the above, the cosmetic container of the present invention comprises: an opaque container (12) for accommodating a transparent container (11) which contains content therein; a discharge pump (13) provided at an open end (12a) of the opaque container (12) above the transparent container (11) so as to discharge the content when pressed; and a compression disk (14) tightly accommodated on the inner bottom surface of the transparent container (11) such that the compression disk (14) is lifted toward the discharge pump (13) by the vacuum pressure generated when the content is being discharged, thereby concentrating the content. The opaque container (12) has a transparent window (12b) on the bottom surface thereof, the discharge pump (13) has a recognition means (15) on the lower surface thereof, and the transparent compression disk (14) approaches the recognition means (15) such that the state of complete consumption of the content is indicated in accordance with the change in the visibility of the recognition means (15) which is visible through the transparent window (12b) of the opaque container (12). The cosmetic container of the present invention enables a user to check the quantity of the remaining content prior to the nearly complete consumption of the content, such that the user can buy a new product prior to complete consumption, thus enabling the user to avoid an embarrassing situation in which the user cannot use the cosmetic. In addition, the cosmetic container of the present invention enables the user to easily check the consumption of the content without any additional operation of the container, thus improving the recognition of the complete consumption of the content. In addition, if content is not discharged, the cosmetic container of the present invention enables the user to confirm whether it is due to the complete consumption of the content or due to a fault of the discharge pump, thus enabling the easy determination of the condition of the cosmetic container.
