[0028] In the exemplary embodiment, the cosmetic pipette unit may include the pipette 40, the brush member 50, the brush tip 60, and the brush fixing member 70. Also, in the exemplary embodiment, the pipette unit may further include at least one of the cap portion 20 and the button portion 30.

[0029] In the container body 10, a liquid cosmetic is stored therein, and a thread may be provided on an outer peripheral surface of the upper end portion.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1, the cap portion 20 includes an inner cap 21 coupled to an upper portion of the container body 10 and a covering member 22 surrounding the outer surface of the inner cap 21.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1, the inner cap 21 of the cap portion 20 maybe detachably screwed to the container body 10 by a thread provided on the outer wall.

[0032] In the exemplary embodiment, the inner cap 21 may be made of a plastic material.

[0033] The covering member 22 of the cap portion 20 protects the inner cap 21 by covering the outer wall of the inner cap 21 and may be made of a metal material.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 1, the button portion 30 is coupled to the inner cap 21 to provide a suction force or a pumping force so that the cosmetics stored in the container body 10 are sucked into the pipette 40.

[0035] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the button portion 30 may have a convex elliptical shape with an empty interior.

[0036] Also, in the exemplary embodiment, the button portion 30 may be engaged with the inner cap 21 by an outer wall groove provided on the outer wall.

[0037] Further, in the exemplary embodiment, the button portion 30 may be made of a rubber material.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 1, the pipette 40 is fitted into an inner wall groove provided in an inner wall portion of the button portion 30 and serves to suck the cosmetics stored in the container body 10 by the contraction and expansion of the button portion 30.

[0039] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the end of the pipette is provided with a narrower diameter than other portions, and the brush fixing member 70 may be coupled thereto.

[0040] The brush member 50 is coupled to an end of the pipette 40 by the brush fixing member 70 as shown in FIG. 1 and serves to apply the cosmetics to the skin.

[0041] In the exemplary embodiment, the upper side of the brush member 50 is provided in the expansion portion 51 as shown in FIG. 1. The expansion portion 51 is disposed between the fixing portion 61 of the brush tip 60 and the brush fixing member 70 and may be coupled to the end of the pipette 40 with the brush tip 60 by a pressing force by the brush fixing member 70. In the exemplary embodiment, the expansion portion 51 may be provided by bending the end after heating the end of the brush member 50 by a known heating means.

[0042] In the exemplary embodiment, the brush member 50 may be provided to be longer than the end of the brush tip 60 while being coupled to the pipette 40 as shown in FIG. 1.

[0043] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the brush member 50 is provided with an introduction passage by the brush tip 60 disposed therein, so that the cosmetic can be introduced into the pipette 40.

[0044] In the exemplary embodiment, the brush member 50 may include at least one of a natural hair and an artificial hair.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 1, the brush tip 60 is coupled to the end of the pipette 40 by a brush fixing member 70, and is disposed inside the brush member 50 to provide an introduction passage so that the cosmetics may be introduced into the brush member 50.

[0046] That is, in the exemplary embodiment, the brush tip 60 prevents the cosmetics from being not sucked by collecting the brush member 50 when the cosmetics are sucked into the pipette 40.

[0047] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the brush tip 60 includes a fixing portion 61 which is disposed between the end of the pipette 40 and the expansion portion 51 of the brush member 50 and coupled to the end of the pipette 40 by the pressing force of the brush fixing member 70 and an extension portion 62 which is extended from the fixing portion 61 to the other side of the brush member 50 and in contact with the inside of the brush member 50 to provide the aforementioned introduction path.

[0048] In the exemplary embodiment, the brush tip 60 may be made of a rubber material.

[0049] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the extension portion 62 may be provided to be inclined so that a width of a region disposed at the lower end of the pipette 40 is greater than a region disposed at the lower end of the brush member 50.

[0050] The brush fixing member 70 is coupled to the lower end of the pipette 40 to couple the brush member 50 and the brush tip 60 to the pipette 40, as shown in FIG. 1.

[0051] In the exemplary embodiment, the brush fixing member 70 may have a ring shape and may be fitted or screwed to the end portion of the pipette 40.

[0052] FIG. 2 is another exemplary embodiment of a main part shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a schematic external view of FIG. 2.

[0053] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the brush member 50 and the brush tip 60 may be coupled to the end of the pipette 40 without using the aforementioned brush fixing member 70.

[0054] Particularly, as shown in FIG. 2, an expansion groove expanded is provided inside the end of the pipette 40, the brush tip 60 is first coupled thereto, and then the brush member 50 is coupled, so that the brush member 50 and the brush tip 60 may be coupled to the end of the pipette 40.

[0055] At this time, in the brush member 50, the aforementioned expansion portion 51 (see FIG. 1) maybe omitted, and the brush member 50 and the brush tip 60 may be fitted to each other or coupled to each other using a harmless adhesive.

[0056] The present invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein, and it would be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications might be made without departing from the spirit and the scope of the present invention. Therefore, it will be determined that the changed examples or modified examples are included in the appended claims of the present invention.
