(14) According to the present invention, a finger insertion mascara container including a wiper having a corrugated tube includes: a container body 10 containing a mascara liquid therein, and formed at an upper portion thereof with an opening 11; a wiper 30 installed in the opening 11 of the container body 10 to sweep the mascara liquid, and formed on an outer peripheral surface thereof with a corrugated tube 31; a finger insertion member 40 inserted into the wiper 30, formed therein with a finger insertion space 41, and formed at a lower side thereof with a coupling extension portion 43; and a brush rod 50 coupled to the coupling extension portion 43 of the finger insertion member 40, and formed at a lower side thereof with a brush 51.

(15) The container body 10 contains the mascara liquid therein, and is formed at an upper end thereof with an opening 11.

(16) The wiper 30 may be directly installed in the opening 11 of the container body 10, or may be coupled to the packing 20 and installed in the opening 11.

(17) The packing 20 prevents the wiper 30 from being separated from the container body 10, and is preferably formed of a polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE) material.

(18) The packing 20 is formed at an upper end thereof with a latching sill 21, and formed on an outer peripheral surface thereof with a fastening protrusion wheel 22.

(19) The latching sill 21 is latched to the opening 11 of the container body 10 to prevent the packing 20 from moving toward an inside of the container body 10.

(20) The wiper 30 is coupled to the fastening protrusion wheel 22, and fitted between the fastening protrusion wheel 22 of the packing 20 and an inner wall of the container body 10.

(21) The wiper 30 is coupled to the opening 11 of the container body 10 or the fastening protrusion wheel 22 of the packing 20, and serves to sweep the mascara liquid smeared on the brush rod 50.

(22) The wiper 30 is formed of an elastic material so as to be elastically stretched and returned. Particularly, the wiper 30 is preferably formed of at least one material among natural rubber, elastomer, urethane rubber, nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR), and silicone.

(23) The wiper 30 is formed on the outer peripheral surface thereof with the corrugated tube 31, a counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 is formed at a lower side of the corrugated tube 31, and the wiper 30 is formed in an upper inner peripheral surface thereof with a fastening annular groove 33.

(24) The corrugated tube 31 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the wiper 30. The corrugated tube 31 is elastically stretched to allow the brush 51 to smear the mascara liquid remaining in the lower portion of the container body 10 for use, thereby preventing the mascara liquid from remaining inside the container body 10.

(25) In addition, the corrugated tube 31 extends downwards by the pressing of the finger insertion member 40 when the container lid 60 is coupled to the container body 10, so that the finger insertion member 40 may make close contact with an inside of the wiper 30, thereby preventing the mascara liquid contained in the container body 10 from being volatilized.

(26) The counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 is formed at a lower side of the corrugated tube 31.

(27) As shown in FIG. 9, the counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 may prevent the mascara liquid smeared on the brush rod 50 from rising on an outer peripheral surface of the wiper 30 when the finger insertion member 40 is separated from the container body 10. Accordingly, the counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 serves to prevent the mascara liquid from entering and being solidified in a space between the wiper 30 and the inner wall of the container body 10.

(28) The fastening protrusion wheel 22 of the packing 20 is coupled to the fastening annular groove 33 formed in the upper inner peripheral surface of the wiper 30 to prevent the wiper 30 from being separated from the inside of the container body 10.

(29) The finger insertion member 40 is inserted into the wiper 30.

(30) The finger insertion member 40 is formed therein with the finger insertion space 41, and formed at the lower side thereof with the coupling extension portion 43.

(31) A finger is inserted into the finger insertion space 41, and the finger insertion space 41 is formed on an inner peripheral surface thereof with an anti-slip protrusion 42 to prevent the finger from slipping when the finger is inserted.

(32) The brush rod 50 having the brush 51 is coupled to the coupling extension portion 43.

(33) The brush rod 50 may be coupled to the coupling extension portion 43, or may be integrally formed with the finger insertion member 40.

(34) In addition, as shown in FIG. 11, the brush rod 50 is formed to be bent, and the mascara liquid remaining in a lower edge of the container body 10 and the mascara liquid smeared on a wall surface may be smeared on the brush 51 for use by rotating the finger insertion member 40, thereby preventing the mascara liquid from remaining in the container body 10.

(35) A finger retaining portion 44 extends from an upper portion of the finger insertion member 40, and the finger retaining portion 44 serves to retain the finger inserted into the finger insertion space 41.

(36) An elastic slit portion 45 is formed in a middle of the finger retaining portion 44 to allow the finger insertion space 41 to be elastically widened and withdrawn, and the elastic slit portion 45 allows the finger to be inserted into the finger insertion space 41 regardless of the size of the finger.

(37) A container lid 60 is coupled to the upper portion of the container body 10.

(38) A pressing protrusion wheel 61 is formed at an inner upper portion of the container lid 60, and the pressing protrusion wheel 61 presses the finger retaining portion 44 of the finger insertion member 40 when the container lid 60 is closed as shown in FIG. 6.

(39) The pressing protrusion wheel 61 presses an upper end of the finger retaining portion 44 while the wiper 30 is pushed to the lower portion of the container body 10 to allow the corrugated tube 31 to be stretched, so that the finger insertion member 40 may make close contact with the inside of the wiper 30 to tightly seal the container body 10, thereby preventing the mascara liquid contained in the container body 10 from being volatilized.

(40) Hereinafter, a method of assembling the finger insertion mascara container including the wiper having the corrugated tube according to an embodiment of the present invention and the use of the same will be described in detail.

(41) According to the present invention, the packing 20 is coupled to the opening 11 at the upper end of the container body 10. The fastening protrusion wheel 22 formed at the lower side of the packing 20 is fitted to the fastening annular groove 33 of the wiper 30, so that the wiper 30 is coupled to the lower side of the packing 20.

(42) At this time, the wiper 30 is formed on the outer peripheral surface thereof with the corrugated tube 31, and the counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 is formed at the lower side of the corrugated tube 31.

(43) Thereafter, the wiper 30 is formed therein with the finger insertion space 41, the finger insertion member 40 formed at the lower side thereof with the coupling extension portion 43 is inserted, and the brush rod 50 having the brush 51 is coupled to the coupling extension portion 43.

(44) In addition, the container lid 60 is coupled to the upper portion of the container body 10, the pressing protrusion wheel 61 is formed at the inner upper portion of the container lid 60, and the pressing protrusion wheel 61 presses the finger retaining portion 44 of the finger insertion member 40 when the container lid 60 is closed as shown in FIG. 6, which completes the assembly.

(45) At this time, the wiper 30 is pushed to the lower portion of the container body 10 to allow the corrugated tube 31 to be stretched, so that the finger insertion member 40 may make close contact with the inside of the wiper 30 to tightly seal the container body 10, thereby preventing the mascara liquid contained in the container body 10 from being volatilized.

(46) In order to use the mascara liquid of the finger insertion mascara container including the wiper having the corrugated tube, which is assembled by the above method, the container lid 60 is opened from the container body 10 as shown in FIG. 7. At this time, the corrugated tube 31 of the wiper 30, which is stretched by the pressing of the container lid 60, is shrunk, so that the finger insertion member 40 is moved upwards.

(47) Thereafter, the finger is inserted into the finger insertion member 40 as shown in FIG. 8, and the finger insertion member 40 is separated from the container body 10 as shown in FIG. 9.

(48) When the finger insertion member 40 is separated, the mascara liquid smeared on the brush rod 50 coupled to the finger insertion member 40 is swept by the wiper 30 and returns to the lower side due to the counter-flow preventing protrusion wheel 32 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the wiper 30, thereby preventing the mascara liquid from being solidified by entering the space between the wiper 30 and the inner wall of the container body 10.

(49) Then, as shown in FIG. 10, when the mascara liquid remains in the lower portion of the container body 10, the finger insertion member 40 presses the wiper 30 downwards while the finger is inserted into the finger insertion space 41.

(50) The corrugated tube 31 is elastically stretched when the wiper 30 is pressed, so that the brush 51 can smear the mascara liquid in the lower portion of the container body 10 for use, thereby preventing the mascara liquid from remaining inside the container body 10.

(51) As described above, although the finger insertion mascara container including the wiper having the corrugated tube according to one embodiment of the present invention has been described for illustrative purposes, the present invention is not limited thereto. It is understood that various changes and modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as disclosed in the appended claims.
