This application is the national phase entry of International Application No. PCT/CN2023/096012, filed on May 24, 2023, which is based upon and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202221772926.9, filed on Jul. 11, 2022, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The present application relates to the technical field of cosmetics, and in particular to a pop-up cosmetic container.

With development of the society and humanity, cosmetics have quickly become prevailing in life. Cosmetics such as lipstick, lip gloss, and lip balm have been widely used. Most conventional containers for lipstick and the like are of a snap-on type or a magnetically attractable type. The lid and the shell in the snap-on container are clamped with each other, while the lid and the shell in the magnetically attractable container are magnetically attracted to each other. Hence, these containers must be opened with the help of two hands, which causes inconvenience in operation. Moreover, these containers are structurally simple, and not interesting.

In order to overcome the above defects, the present application provides a pop-up cosmetic container. The coupling rod is provided in the cosmetic container, the inner sleeve and the intermediate lid are connected with the coupling rod, and the shell assembly can be popped up by pressing the intermediate lid, so the present application is operated conveniently, and makes the product more interesting.

To solve the technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

The present application provides a pop-up cosmetic container, including a lid assembly, a coupling rod, an inner sleeve, an intermediate lid, and a shell assembly, where the lid assembly is sleeved outside the intermediate lid, and an end of the intermediate lid is stretched out of the lid assembly; the intermediate lid is sleeved outside the inner sleeve; the inner sleeve is sleeved outside the shell assembly; the coupling rod is rotatably provided in the lid assembly; and a first side of the coupling rod is connected to the intermediate lid, and a second side of the coupling rod is connected to the inner sleeve.

The inner lid is fixedly provided in the outer lid. The outer lid, the inner lid, the inner sleeve, and the shell assembly are arranged sequentially from outside to inside. The coupling rod includes one side connected to the intermediate lid, and the other side connected to the inner sleeve. The inner sleeve is clamped with the inner lid. When the intermediate lid is stressed to move toward the lid assembly, the intermediate lid pushes one side of the coupling rod to move up, and the other side of the coupling rod moves down, such that the inner sleeve is stressed to separate from the inner lid. Under an action of resilience of the elastic member, the inner sleeve and the shell assembly are popped up out of the lid assembly. The shell assembly is pulled out for use. Therefore, with a seesaw-like function of the coupling rod, the shell assembly can be popped up by pushing the intermediate lid. With the operating end and the pop-up end located at a same end, the present application facilitates single-handed operation of the user. The present application is operated conveniently and makes the product more interesting.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present application. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely some rather than all of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

It should be noted that the terms “first”, “second”, and so on in the description and claims of this application and in the above accompanying drawings are intended to distinguish similar objects but do not necessarily indicate a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in such a way may be exchanged under proper conditions to make it possible to implement the described implementations of this application in sequences except those illustrated or described herein. Moreover, the terms “include”, “contain”, and any other variants mean to cover the non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a list of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units which are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units which are not expressly listed or inherent to such a process, method, system, product, or device.

For ease of description, spatially relative terms, such as “above”, “on the upper side of”, “on the upper surface of” and “on”, can be used to describe the spatial positional relationship between components or features shown in the figure. It should be understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the components in use or operation in addition to those shown in the figure. For example, if a component in the figure is inverted, it is described as a component “above other component or structure” or “on other component or structure”. Therefore, the component will be positioned as “below other component or structure” or “under other component or structure”. Therefore, the exemplary term “above” may include both orientations “above” and “below”. The component may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated by 90 degrees or in other orientations), but the relative description of the space should be explained accordingly.

Embodiment: As shown in, a pop-up cosmetic container includes a lid assembly, coupling rod, inner sleeve, intermediate lid, and shell assembly. The lid assembly is sleeved outside the intermediate lid, and an end of the intermediate lidis stretched out of the lid assembly. The intermediate lidis sleeved outside the inner sleeve. The inner sleeveis sleeved outside the shell assembly. The coupling rodis rotatably provided in the lid assembly. A first side of the coupling rodis connected to the intermediate lid, and a second side of the coupling rodis connected to the inner sleeve. When the intermediate lidis stressed to move toward the lid assembly, the intermediate liddrives the first side to move synchronously, and the second side moves reversely, such that the inner sleevedrives the shell assemblyto stretch out of the lid assembly. The lid assembly, the inner sleeve, the intermediate lid, and the shell assemblyare coaxial. The shell assemblyis inserted into the inner sleeve. The inner sleeveis inserted into the intermediate lid. The intermediate lidis inserted into the lid assembly. The inner sleeve can only move along an axial direction of the intermediate lid. The intermediate lidcan only move along an axial direction of the lid assembly. The inner sleeve and the intermediate lid, as well as the intermediate lid and the lid assembly, can define a circumferential direction and a radial direction therebetween through a convex rib structure. The coupling rodincludes a middle position rotatably provided in the lid assembly, and two sides moving reversely.illustrate a standby state of the cosmetic container after assembly. In this case, a lower end of the intermediate lidis stretched out of the lid assembly. The first side of the coupling rodis connected to the intermediate lid and located at a low position, and the second side of the coupling rodis connected to the inner sleeve. As shown in, when the intermediate lidis stressed to move toward the lid assembly, the intermediate lid pushes the first side of the coupling rod to move up, and the second side of the coupling rod moves down, such that the shell assemblyis stretched out of the lid assembly. The shell assembly is pulled out for use. Therefore, with a seesaw-like function of the coupling rod, the shell assembly can be popped up by pushing the intermediate lid. With the operating end and the pop-up end located at a same end, the present application facilitates single-handed operation of the user. The present application is operated conveniently and makes the product more interesting.

The pop-up cosmetic container further includes elastic member. The elastic memberis provided between the inner sleeveand the lid assembly. As shown in, in another implementation, the second side of the coupling rod is connected to the inner sleeve. The elastic memberis in a compressed state. When the intermediate lidis stressed to move toward the lid assembly, as shown in, the intermediate lid pushes the first side of the coupling rod to move up, and the second side of the coupling rod moves down, such that the inner sleeveand the shell assemblymove outward from the lid assembly under an action of the elastic member, and thus the shell assemblyis stretched out of the lid assembly. In another implementation, there is no elastic member between the inner sleeve and the lid assembly. The second side of the coupling rod is connected to the inner sleeve. In use, the intermediate lid pushes the first side of the coupling rod to move up, and the second side of the coupling rod moves down, thereby pushing the inner sleeve to drive the shell assembly to operate synchronously, and stretching the shell assemblyout of the lid assembly. According to the present application, when the elastic member is provided between the inner sleeve and the lid assembly, the shell assembly can be quickly popped up out of the lid assembly. Therefore, the cosmetic container is used more smoothly and comfortably.

The inner sleeveis connected to the lid assembly. Optionally, the inner sleeve and the lid assembly are connected together through a limiting member. As shown in, the inner sleeve and the lid assembly are clamped to each other, and the elastic memberis in the compressed state. In use, as shown in, the intermediate lid pushes the first side of the coupling rod to move up, and the second side of the coupling rod moves down, such that the inner sleeveis stressed to separate from the lid assembly, and the elastic memberis released. Under an action of resilience of the elastic member, the inner sleeveand the shell assemblyare popped up out of the lid assembly. In another implementation, the inner sleeve and the lid assembly are clamped to each other, but there is no elastic member between the inner sleeve and the lid assembly. That is, there are two solutions for the container. According to a first solution, when the container is in a closed state, namely the shell assemblyis retracted into the lid assembly, the inner sleeveis connected to the lid assembly. According to a second solution, when the container is in the closed state, namely the shell assemblyis retracted into the lid assembly, the inner sleeveis connected to the second side of the coupling rod.

The lid assembly includes outer lidand inner lidthat are fixedly connected. The inner lidis provided in the outer lid. As shown in, a lower end of the inner lidextends axially downward to form lug. Rotating shaft holeis formed in the lug. First limiting memberand second limiting memberare provided in the inner lid. Rotating shaftis provided on the coupling rod. First connecting memberis provided on the first side. Second connecting memberis provided on the second side. The rotating shaftis provided in the rotating shaft hole. The first connecting memberis connected to the intermediate lid. The second connecting memberis connected to the inner sleeve. The outer lidis an internally hollow cylindrical structure, with an open lower end. The inner lidis provided inside an upper end of the outer lid. Two lugsarranged symmetrically along a central axis are provided on the inner lid. As shown in,and, the outer lidis clamped with the inner lid. The two lugsare parallel to each other. One first limiting memberand two parallel second limiting membersare provided on an inner sidewall of the inner lid. The two second limiting members are arranged symmetrically along the central axis of the inner lid.

As shown in, accommodating grooveis formed in the coupling rod. The rotating shaft, the first connecting memberand the second connecting memberall extend outward along a radial direction of the coupling rod. The coupling rodis an internally hollow annular structure, with a hollow portion being the accommodating groove. The coupling rodincludes a front sidewall and a rear sidewall respectively provided with rotating shafts, a left sidewall provided with the first connecting member, and a right sidewall provided with the second connecting member. In assembly, as shown in, two rotating shaftsare respectively provided in rotating shaft holes. Hence, the coupling rodcan rotate relative to the inner lid. The first connecting memberis connected to the intermediate lid. When the intermediate lidmoves down, the first connecting member of the coupling rodmoves down, and the second connecting member moves up, which is similar to a principle of the seesaw.

Third limiting memberand fourth limiting memberare provided on the inner sleeve. The third limiting membercan be clamped into the second connecting member. The third limiting membercan be clamped with the first limiting member. The fourth limiting membercan be clamped with the second limiting member. The first limiting member, the second limiting member, the third limiting member, and the fourth limiting member each may be a clamping claw, a clamping point, a magnetic point, and the like, provided that the first limiting member and the third limiting member, as well as the second limiting member and the fourth limiting member, are clamped with each other.

As shown in, the inner sleeveis an internally hollow cylindrical structure, with an open lower end. An upper surface of the inner sleeveextends axially upward to form the third limiting memberand barrel. The fourth limiting memberis provided on the barrel. A diameter of the barrelis less than a diameter of an inner sleeve main body. The barrel is coaxial with the inner sleeve main body. Two fourth limiting membersarranged symmetrically along a central axis of the barrel are provided on the barrel. The third limiting memberis located at one side of the barrel.

The fourth limiting memberis inserted into the accommodating groove. The inner lidextends axially to form limiting sleeve. One end of the elastic memberis provided in the limiting sleeve, and the other end of the elastic member is provided in the barrel. In assembly, as shown in, the two fourth limiting members pass through the accommodating grooveof the coupling rod. As shown in, the third limiting memberpasses through the second connecting member, and the third limiting member hooks the first limiting member, such that the inner sleeve is connected to the inner lid, and the elastic member is compressed between the inner lid and the inner sleeve. The fourth limiting memberon the inner sleeveand the second limiting memberon the inner lid are configured to limit a maximum stroke of the elastic member.

As shown in, the intermediate lidis an internally hollow cylindrical structure, with an upper end and a lower end being open. The upper end of the intermediate lidextends axially to form connecting rod. Mounting groovefor mounting the first connecting memberis formed in the connecting rod. As shown inand, the first connecting memberon the coupling rod is inserted into the mounting grooveof the intermediate lid, such that the intermediate lid can drive the first connecting member of the coupling rod to move synchronously. The third limiting memberon the inner sleeveis inserted into the second connecting memberon the coupling rod, and the third limiting memberhooks the first limiting memberof the inner lid, such that the inner sleeve and the shell assembly are limited in the outer lid. Meanwhile, the elastic memberis compressed between the inner lid and the inner sleeve, as shown in. At this time, there is a certain distance between the second limiting memberof the inner lid and the fourth limiting memberof the inner sleeve, and this distance is a maximum stroke of the spring. When the intermediate lidis stressed to move toward the inner lid, the intermediate liddrives the first connecting memberof the coupling rod to move up. The second connecting memberof the coupling rod moves down to provide a horizontal component force for the third limiting member, such that the third limiting member is bent leftward to separate from the first limiting member, as shown in. At this time, a constraint force on the elastic memberdisappears. The elastic memberis restored to drive the inner sleeve and the shell assemblyto move down, and the shell assembly is popped up out of the outer lid, as shown into. In this case, the intermediate lid is attached to the lower end of the outer lid, the second limiting member is clamped with the fourth limiting member, and the shell assemblyis taken out for use.

As shown in, the shell assemblyincludes shell core, weight, and base. The shell coreis rotatably provided in the base. The weightis provided between the shell coreand the base. A cosmetic such as lipstick, lip gloss, and lip balm is provided in the shell core. By rotating the base, the cosmetic is stretched out of the shell core for makeup of the user. The shell assemblyis a common structure for the cosmetic such as the lipstick, which is not described in detail herein.

The operation process in the present application includes the following steps:

Step: Initially, the cosmetic container is in the closed state, as shown inand. The lower end of the intermediate lidis stretched out of the outer lid. The first side of the coupling rodis connected to the connecting rodof the intermediate lid, and located at the low position. The third limiting memberon the inner sleeveis inserted into the second connecting memberon the coupling rod, and the third limiting memberhooks the first limiting memberof the inner lid.

Step: By pressing the intermediate lidinward, the intermediate liddrives the first connecting memberof the coupling rod to move up. The second connecting memberof the coupling rod moves down to provide the horizontal component force for the third limiting member, such that the third limiting member is bent leftward to separate from the first limiting member, as shown in.

Step: The constraint force on the elastic memberdisappears. The elastic memberis restored to drive the inner sleeve and the shell assemblyto move down, such that the shell assembly is popped up out of the outer lid, as shown inand. At this time, the intermediate lid is attached to the lower end of the outer lid, the second limiting memberis clamped with the fourth limiting member, and the shell assemblyis taken out for use.
