BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

(7) Hereinafter, a technical structure of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(8) As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, an oxygen-mixing cosmetic container includes: a body 10 having a storing space 11 of which the upper portion is open such that a cosmetic is contained therein; a cap 20 combined to the upper portion of the body 10 and having a pumping portion 21 in which a nozzle 21a is formed; a valve 30 airtightly mounted at the center of the lower portion of the body 10 and having a fracture rod 31 protruding downwardly; an oxygen capsule 40 having a fracture film 41 rupturing by the fracture rod 31 of the valve 30 to supply oxygen to the storing space 11 of the body 10; a connecting tube 50 formed integrally with the lower portion of the body 10 to surround the lower portion of the valve 30 and the upper portion of the oxygen capsule 40, and having an outer diameter smaller than that of the body 10; and an oxygen supply cap 60 detachably coupled to the connecting tube 50, the oxygen supply cap 60 having a capsule mounting portion 62 to which the oxygen capsule 40 is fit through a plurality of fixing pieces 61 radially protruding from the inner-diameter lower portion such that oxygen is ejected.

(9) Here, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container is capable of promoting absorption of specific nutrient ingredients of cosmetics into the skin by containing oxygen in cosmetics, sufficiently supplying pure oxygen, which does not contain contaminants, to the cosmetics separately from cosmetic ingredients, continuously supplying oxygen to the cosmetics regardless of whether or not oxygen generating materials are contained, and allowing a user to refill and reuse cosmetics. Such an oxygen-mixing cosmetic container includes the body 10, the cap 20, the valve 30, the oxygen capsule 40, the connecting tube 50, and the oxygen supply cap 60. The body 10 is a body of the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container, and has the storing space 11 of which the upper portion is open such that the cosmetic is contained therein. In this instance, it is preferable that the body 10 be formed with a transparent body so that the user can easily check conditions of the cosmetic contained in the storing space 11 from the outside.

(10) The cap 20 is detachably combined to the upper portion of the body 10 to seal the storing space 11, and has the pumping portion 21 disposed on the upper portion of the cap 20 to discharge the cosmetic to the outside through the nozzle 21a. In this instance, a valve 22 and a discharge tube 23 are mounted on the lower portion of the pumping portion 21. Therefore, when the user presses the pumping portion 21, the valve 22 is opened, and mixture liquid of the cosmetic and oxygen is discharged out along the discharge tube 23 through the nozzle 21a.

(11) The valve 30 is airtightly mounted at the center of the lower portion of the body 10, and has the fracture rod 31 mounted at the lower portion of the valve 30 to rupture the fracture film 41 of the oxygen capsule 40 and supply oxygen to the storing space 11 of the body 10. In this instance, the valve 30 is opened and closed by pressure, namely, is opened by external pressure and is closed by internal pressure.

(12) The oxygen capsule 40 has the fracture film 41 rupturing by the fracture rod 31 of the valve 30 to supply oxygen to the storing space 11 of the body 10. The oxygen capsule 40 is filled with oxygen compressed at high pressure. In this instance, when the user pushes the oxygen capsule 40 into the fracture rod 31, the fracture film 41 ruptures, and at the same time, oxygen is ejected to the fracture rod 31, so that the valve 30 is opened by pressure of the oxygen. Therefore, the oxygen compressed at high pressure and ejected from the oxygen capsule 40 is supplied to the storing space 11 of the body 10 through the fracture rod 31 and the valve 30.

(13) The connecting tube 50 is formed integrally with the lower portion of the body 10 to have the outer diameter smaller than that of the body 10. The connecting tube 50 has the space formed therein to surround the lower portion of the valve and the upper portion of the oxygen capsule 40. In this instance, the connecting tube 50 serves to detachably combine the oxygen supply cap 60 to the lower portion of the body 10.

(14) As soon as the oxygen supply cap 60 is detachably combined to the connecting tube 50, oxygen is ejected. Such an oxygen supply cap 60 has the plurality of fixing pieces 61 radially and integrally formed on the inner-diameter lower portion, and a capsule mounting portion 62, to which the oxygen capsule 40 is fit, is formed at the center of the inside of the fixing pieces 61. In this instance, when the oxygen supply cap 60 is combined to the connecting tube 50 after the oxygen capsule 40 is mounted in the capsule mounting portion 62 of the oxygen supply cap 60, the fracture rod 31 of the valve 30 ruptures the fracture film 41 while being forcedly pressed into the fracture film 41 of the oxygen capsule 40. So, when the oxygen supply cap 60 is combined, oxygen is ejected, and is supplied to the storing space 11 of the body 10 through the fracture rod 31 and the valve 30. In the meantime, the oxygen supply cap 60 is made with a transparent or opaque body.

(15) The plurality of fixing pieces 61 are radially formed at the inner diameter lower portion of the oxygen supply cap 60, and serves to support the outer face of the oxygen capsule 40.

(16) According to the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, each of the fixing pieces 61 has an inclined surface 61a formed at the inner upper portion thereof to hold the upper portion of the oxygen capsule 40. In this instance, because a gripping space is formed at the inner upper portion of the fixing pieces 61 by the inclined surfaces 61a, when the user inserts his or her finger into the gripping space formed by the inclined surfaces 61a and holds the upper portion of the oxygen capsule 40, the user can easily pick out the oxygen capsule 40 to replace the oxygen capsule 40.

(17) The capsule mounting portion 62 is formed at the inner central portion of the fixing pieces 61, and the oxygen capsule 40 is fit in the capsule mounting portion 62.

(18) According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, a male screw 51 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting tube 50, and a female screw 63 to be screw-coupled with the male screw 51 is formed on the upper portion of the inner circumferential surface of the oxygen supply cap 60. In this instance, when the male screw 51 and the female screw 63 are coupled with each other, the oxygen supply cap 60 is simply and firmly coupled to the connecting tube 50. The oxygen supply cap 60 coupled firmly is not separated by pressure of the oxygen ejected when being combined.

(19) According to another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6, the connecting tube 50 includes: insertion grooves 52 opened at the lower portion and vertically formed at both sides of the outer circumferential surface of the connecting tube 50; elevation guide grooves 53 inclinedly formed at the upper portion of the insertion grooves 52 in a spiral direction; and fixing grooves 54 horizontally formed at the upper portion of the elevation guide grooves 53. The oxygen supply cap 60 includes fixing protrusions 64 formed at both sides of the inner circumferential surface thereof to be inserted and fit into the fixing grooves 54 through the insertion grooves 52 and the elevation guide grooves 53. In this instance, when the fixing protrusions 64 are inserted into the insertion grooves 52 and rotated toward the fixing grooves 54, the fixing protrusions 64 are fit and coupled with the fixing grooves 54 while going up along the inclined surfaces of the elevation guide grooves 53, so that the oxygen supply cap 60 can be simply and firmly combined to the connecting tube 50, and the firmly combined oxygen supply cap 60 is not separated by pressure of the oxygen ejected when being combined.

(20) In the meantime, according to the present invention, the body 10 and the oxygen supply cap 60 has the same outer diameter to make the appearance beautiful, and annular jaws 10a and 60a are respectively formed on the lower end of the outer circumferential surface of the body 10 and the upper end of the outer circumferential surface of the oxygen supply cap 60 to prevent slip when they are coupled with each other.

(21) Therefore, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can make oxygen ejected as soon as the oxygen supply cap 60 is combined to the body 10 due to the improved structure that the oxygen capsule 40 and the oxygen supply cap 60 mounted on the bottom of the body 10 are formed in a single unit, differently from the conventional oxygen mixing cosmetic containers.

(22) Moreover, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can reduce manufacturing costs and enhance assemblability of the oxygen supply cap 60 due to simplification of the single unit of the oxygen supply cap 60.

(23) Furthermore, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can allow the user to easily replace the oxygen capsule 40 mounted in the oxygen supply cap 60 to supply oxygen because the oxygen supply cap 60 supporting the oxygen capsule 40 has the inclined surfaces 61a formed on the inner upper portions of the fixing pieces 61 so that the user can easily grip the upper portion of the oxygen capsule 40.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

(24) According to the embodiments of the present invention, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can make oxygen ejected as soon as the oxygen supply cap is combined to the cosmetic container body due to the improved structure that the oxygen capsule and the oxygen supply cap mounted on the bottom of the cosmetic container body are formed in a single unit, differently from the conventional oxygen mixing cosmetic containers.

(25) Moreover, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can structurally reduce manufacturing costs and enhance assemblability of the oxygen supply cap due to simplification of the single unit of the oxygen supply cap.

(26) Furthermore, the oxygen-mixing cosmetic container can allow the user to easily replace the oxygen capsule mounted in the oxygen supply cap to supply oxygen because the oxygen supply cap supporting the oxygen capsule has the inclined surfaces formed on the inner upper portions of the fixing pieces so that the user can easily grip the upper portion of the oxygen capsule.
