DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with
reference to accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals
provided in the drawings indicate the same members.
[0021] FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view illustrating a
configuration of a mascara container provided with a moving wiper
according to an exemplary embodiment. FIG. 2 is a perspective view
illustrating a configuration of the mascara container provided with
a moving wiper according to an exemplary embodiment. FIG. 3 is a
combined cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration of the
mascara container provided with a moving wiper according to an

[0022] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, a mascara container provided
with a moving wiper according to the preferred embodiments includes
a container body 100, a mascara part 200, and a brush wiper
300.
[0023] The container body 100, storing liquid-type contents such as
mascara, is provided with a discharge part 110 in which contents
are discharged at an upper portion thereof, wherein a first screw
thread 111 is formed at an outer circumferential surface of the
discharge part 110 for being screw-coupled with a coupling part 210
of the mascara part 200.
[0024] The mascara part 200, screw-coupled to an upper portion of
the container body 100, is provided with a coupling part 210 which
encases the discharge part 110 and detachably screw-coupled,
wherein a second screw thread 211 is formed at an inner
circumferential surface of the coupling part 210 for screw-coupling
with the first screw thread 111.
[0025] At a center portion of the coupling part 210 is downwardly
extended a brush rod 220 which is inserted into an interior of the
container body 100 in a state that the coupling part 210 is coupled
to the discharge part 110, and at a lower end of the brush rod 220
is coupled a brush 230 for applying contents stored in the
container body 100.
[0026] The presently described embodiments are characterized in a
way that a brush rod wiper 240 is coupled to the brush rod 220 for
encasing an outer circumferential surface of the brush rod 220 and
slidingly moving in a longitudinal direction, wherein the brush rod
wiper 240 is configured to be fixedly coupled to an inner side of
the brush wiper 300 in a state that a mascara part 200 is coupled
to the container body 100, and to wipe away contents adhered on the
brush rod 220 in a process of withdrawing the brush rod 220 from
the container body 100. When the brush rod 220 completes being
withdrawn away, the brush rod wiper 240 is released from coupling
with the brush wiper 300 by pressurization of the first
pressurization 221 formed at a dead end of the brush rod 220 and
thereby is withdrawn in company with the brush rod 220.
[0027] For this, at a lower portion of the brush rod 220 is
provided a first pressurization part 221 which pressurizes a lower
end of the brush rod wiper 240 in a process that the brush 220 is
withdrawn from the container body 100 and moves the brush rod wiper
240 to an upper portion of a limitation protrusion 310, thereby
fixing the brush rod wiper 240 at an inner side of the brush wiper
300.
[0028] Meanwhile, at an upper portion of the brush rod 220 is
provided a second pressurization part 221 which fixes the brush rod
wiper 240 to an inner side of the brush wiper 300 by pressurizing
an upper end of the brush rod wiper 240 in a process the brush rod
220 is inserted into the container body 100 and moving the brush
rod wiper 240 to a lower portion of the limitation protrusion
310.
[0029] Furthermore, the brush rod wiper 240 is formed in a smaller
size than the brush wiper 300 such that the mascara part 200 can be
fixedly coupled to an inner side of the brush wiper 300 in a state
of being coupled to the container body 100, preferably in as big a
diameter as to be closely contacted to an outer circumferential
surface of the brush rod 220 and for the brush rod 220 only to pass
through.
[0030] Meanwhile, a cover part 400, which encases the mascara part
200, is coupled to an outer surface of the mascara part 200,
wherein the cover part 400 has a predetermined length for a user to
grasp, thus enabling the mascara part 200 coupled to an inner side
thereof to rotate according to user's manipulation.
[0031] The brush wiper 300 is coupled to an upper portion of the
container body 100 and wipes away contents adhered on the brush 230
in a process of withdrawing the mascara part 200 from the container
body 100. In the present embodiments, the brush wiper 300 is
characterized to form a limitation protrusion 310, at an inner
circumferential surface of the brush wiper 300, which temporarily
limits the movement of the brush rod wiper 240 in a process of
inserting the brush rod 220 into the container body 100 or
withdrawing the brush rod 220 from the container body 100.
[0032] The limitation protrusion 310 supports an upper end portion
of the brush rod wiper 240 and limits the downward movement of the
brush rod wiper 240 when the brush rod 220 is inserted into the
container body 100, but limits the brush rod wiper 240 from moving
upwards in a state that the brush rod wiper 240 moves to a lower
portion of the limitation protrusion 310 when the second
pressurization part 222 pressurizes the brush rod wiper 240.
[0033] Hereafter, with reference to FIGS. 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B,
and 6C, an operational procedure of a mascara container provided
with a moving wiper according to an exemplary embodiment will be
described.
[0034] Firstly, referring to FIGS. 4 and 6, when the cover part 400
is rotated in a state that a coupling part 210 of the mascara part
200 is coupled to a discharge part 100 of the container body 100, a
first screw thread 111 of the discharge part 110 is released from
screw-coupling with a second screw thread 211 of the coupling part
210, such that the mascara part 200 can be withdrawn from the
container body 100. At this moment, since it is in a state that an
upper end of the brush rod wiper 240 is supported by a limitation
protrusion 310 and thereby the ascent of the brush rod wiper 240 is
limited, the brush rod wiper 240 can wipe away contents adhered on
an outer circumferential surface of the brush rod 220 in a process
of the brush rod 220 ascending.
[0035] When a first pressurization part 221 provided at a lower
portion of the brush rod 220 meets a lower end of the brush rod
wiper 240 while the brush rod 220 is ascending, the brush rod wiper
240 breaks away from the limitation protrusion 310 and moves
upwards, such that the brush rod wiper 240 can be withdrawn in
company with when the brush rod 220 is withdrawn from the container
body 100.
[0036] As in the above, in a process that the brush rod 220 is
withdrawn, contents adhered on the brush 230 which is coupled to a
dead end of the brush rod 220 is wiped away by the brush wiper
300.
[0037] Next, referring FIG. 6, when a mascara part 200 is inserted
into the container body 100, a brush rod 220 descends with an upper
end of the brush rod wiper 240 seated on a limitation protrusion
310. When a second pressurization part 222 meets an upper end of
the brush rod wiper 240 provided at an upper portion of the brush
rod 220 while the brush rod 220 is descending, the brush rod wiper
240 breaks away from the limitation protrusion 310 by the second
pressurization part 222 and moves downward.
[0038] As in the above, when the brush rod wiper 240 move to a
lower portion of the limitation protrusion 310, an upper end of the
brush rod wiper 240 is supported by the limitation protrusion 310
and thereby an upward movement thereof is limited. Due to this,
when the mascara part 200 is withdrawn for content use, it is
possible to wipe away contents adhered on an outer circumferential
surface of the brush rod 220.
[0039] The present embodiments, as previously described, are
configured in that the brush rod wiper 240 fixedly coupled to an
inner side of the brush wiper 300 in a process of withdrawing the
mascara part 200 from the container body 100 firstly wipes away
contents adhered on the outer circumferential surface of the brush
rod 220 and then, after being withdrawn in company with the brush
rod 220 by the pressurization part 221 at an dead end of the brush,
contents adhered on the brush 230 is wiped away by the brush wiper
300. Therefore, it is possible to keep the brush rod 220 clean and
also to prevent the brush 230 from being deformed due to the
structure wherein the brush 230 does not pass through the brush rod
wiper 240 whose perimeter is relatively narrow.
[0040] As described above, optimal embodiments have been disclosed
in the drawings and the specification. Although specific terms have
been used herein, these are only intended to describe the present
embodiments and are not intended to limit the meanings of the terms
or to restrict the scope of the accompanying claims. Therefore,
those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications
and other equivalent embodiments are possible from the above
embodiments. Accordingly, the scope of the claims should be defined
by the technical spirit of the description above.
