FIG. 3 is an assembled cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration of a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment. FIG. 4 is a constitutional view illustrating an operational state of a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment.

(7) Referring to FIGS. 2 to 4, a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment includes an outer container 100, an inner container 200, a support body 300, a pumping member 400, a button part 500, a contents absorption member 600, and a button cap 700.

(8) The outer container 100 holds an inner container 200, on an upper portion of which a combining part 110 comprising a combining protrusion is installed to be combined with the inner container 200 to be explained later.

(9) The inner container 200, which is inserted in the interior of the outer container 110 and where contents are kept, comprises a piston 210 which ascends according to use of the contents inside the inner container 200, wherein an air inflow hole 220 is installed at a lower end of the inner container 200, so that the air flowing in through a space formed by the outer container 100 and the inner container 200 moves into the interior of the inner container 200 and can lift a piston 210.

(10) On an upper portion of the inner container 200 is provided a bent part 230 which is bent to outer direction and combined to a combining part 110, and on the bent part 230 is provided an engaging protrusion 231 which meets the lower end of the combining protrusion 111 so as to be prevented from being separated to upper direction after being combined to the combining part 110 of the outer container body 100.

(11) The support body 300 is combined as encircling the outer container 100 and the inner container 200, and supports a pumping member 400. In the center portion of the support body is provided a cylinder 310, wherein a seal cap, which is combined to a piston rod of the pumping member 400 and an outer circumferential surface of the piston rod, ascends and descend, supporting the pumping member 400. At the lower end of the cylinder 310 is provided a content inflow hole 311 so as for the contents kept in the inner container 200 to flow in when the pumping member operates. At an upper end of the content inflow hole 311 is installed a check valve 312 that opens and closes according to operation or non-operation of the pumping member 400.

(12) Furthermore, at the support body 300 is provided a protrusion 320 which comprises a guide groove 321 so as to prevent distortion and guide vertical movement when the button part 500 ascends and descends.

(13) On the other hand, at the support body 300 is combined an over cap 900 so as to encircle a button cap 700 and thereby to be able to be attached and detached to the support body 300. The over cap 900 is combined as encircling the button cap 700 and thereby prevents malfunction of the pumping member 400 caused by pressurization of the button cap 700.

(14) The pumping member 400 is combined to the support body 300 and discharges contents by pumping operation, as is generally understood.

(15) The button part 500 is combined to an upper portion of the pumping member 400 and pressurizes the pumping member 400 by pressurization of the button cap 700 according to a user's control, thereby enabling pumping operation. On the center of the button part 500, a content movement hole 510 is provided to enable contents to move by pumping operation of the pumping member 400.

(16) At the button part 500 is installed a guide protrusion 520 which moves inside the guide groove 320 and thereby guides vertical movement of the button part 500.

(17) The content absorption member 600 is positioned at an upper portion of the button part 500 and absorbs the contents flowing in through the content movement hole 510, thereby making it possible for a user to apply the contents by hand or by means of a cosmetic applicator, which can be various kinds of materials such as puff, sponge, foam, or brush, preferably made of a porous material for easy absorption of contents.

(18) When an over cap 900 is closed without using up all the absorbed contents, the content absorption member 600 stays in a content-absorbing state, and thereby, when reusing it later, it is possible to use the absorbed contents by hand or by means of a cosmetic applicator without another pumping operation.

(19) When contents absorbed into the content absorption member 600 lacks, the contents can be used by reabsorbing contents into the content absorption member 600 through pumping operation by pressurizing the button cap 700.

(20) The button cap 700 is combined as encircling the button part 500 and the content absorption member 600, and according to a user's pressurization, delivers pressure to the button part 500, thereby making a pumping operation of the pumping member 400 possible, wherein a hollow 720 is formed which exposes the content absorption member 600 so as to make it possible for a user to use the contents absorbed into the content absorption member 600.

(21) At the upper end is installed a pressing part 710 which extends to an inner surface direction so as to prevent the content absorption member 600 from being separated and pressurizes an upper end of the content absorption 600. At a lower end of the pressing part 710, it is preferred that a fixed protrusion 711 is formed to fix the content absorption 600.

(22) On the other hand, between the button part 500 and the content absorption member 600, is installed a content discharge member 800 which is connected with the content movement hole 510 of the button part 500 and delivers contents moving through the content movement hole 510 to the content absorption member 600. At the content discharge member 800 are formed a multitude of content discharge holes 810 evenly positioned with a regular interval.

(23) The content discharge member 800 is preferred to have a space, placed with a narrow margin apart from the button part 500, thereby allowing the contents to move smoothly to a multitude of content discharge holes 810.

(24) In the following, referring to FIG. 4, an operational procedure of a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment will be explained. FIG. 4 is a constitutional view illustrating an operational state of a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment.

(25) Referring to FIG. 4, as for a vacuum cosmetic container for cream type cosmetics according to an embodiment, when a button cap 700 is pressurized, a button part 500 combined to a lower portion of the button cap moves downwards and pumping operation of a pumping member 400 is performed by downward movement of a button part 500, thereby leading contents stored in a cylinder 310 to move to a content discharge member 800 via a content movement hole 5110 of a button part 500 and to be discharged through a multitude of content discharging holes 810 formed at the content discharge member 800.

(26) As the above, when contents are discharged by a multitude of content discharging holes 810, a content absorption member 600 positioned at an upper portion of a content discharge member 800 absorbs contents, and the contents absorbed in a content absorption member 600 can be used by coating with a hand or a cosmetic applicator.

(27) 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. Accordingly, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and other equivalent embodiments are possible from the above embodiments. Therefore, the scope of the claims should be defined by the technical spirit of the specification.
