[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a comb-equipped container for directly applying a liquid agent such as a hair dye or a hair material filled in a container body from the container body to the hair.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Containers with combs are widely used in which a cap with comb teeth is arranged in the container body so that liquids such as hair dye and hair stored in the container can be directly applied to the hair. It is used. In these comb-equipped containers, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No.
As disclosed in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 0-137029,
A spout is formed at each intermediate portion of the comb teeth arranged in a row, and the liquid agent can be spouted from this spout. In such a container with a comb, the liquid agent flowing out from the spout is applied to the hair. However, the liquid agent may not be evenly attached to the hair or the liquid agent may drip.

To solve these problems, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-2001
In Japanese Patent No. 275739, in front of the spout of the comb tooth piece,
A container with a comb is disclosed in which a plurality of grooves and a ridge are provided in the lateral direction to form an uneven shape to prevent the liquid agent from dripping from the tip of the comb tooth piece. Further, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-275752 discloses a container with a comb provided with a protruding piece in which the tip end portion of the comb tooth is bulged in a ball shape to prevent the liquid agent from dripping from the tip end of the comb tooth piece. Has been done.

[0004]

However, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-2001
In the container with a comb disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 275739/1997, since the thin comb-teeth piece is provided with a lateral groove and a lateral ridge to provide an uneven shape, the tip of the comb-teeth piece lacks rigidity.
Stable combing of hair tends to be difficult. On the other hand, if a shallow concave-convex shape is used to increase rigidity, it is not possible to sufficiently prevent the liquid agent from dripping. In addition, JP 20
In the container with a comb disclosed in the publication No. 01-275752, since the protruding piece is provided at the tip of the comb tooth piece, it is difficult for the liquid agent flowing out from the spout to reach the root of the hair, and it is even. It becomes difficult to apply the liquid agent to the. Further, since a protruding piece is provided at the tip of the thin comb tooth piece, there is a problem that the molding is not easy, such as using a split mold as the molding die.

In view of this, in the present invention, the comb tooth piece is formed with a vertical recess in the comb tooth surface facing the other adjacent comb tooth piece for storing the dispensed liquid agent.

According to a first aspect of the present invention, a comb tooth piece is formed with a concave portion for storing a liquid agent poured on a comb tooth surface facing another adjacent comb tooth piece in a vertical direction. ing. Thus, when applying the liquid agent to the hair, the hair combed by the comb teeth pieces becomes a hair bundle between the comb teeth pieces. The liquid agent flowing out from the spout is applied to each hair bundle. here,
The excess liquid agent is moved and stored in the concave portion by the hair bundle, and is prevented from dropping from the tip of the comb tooth piece. And
When the hair is repeatedly combed without flowing out the liquid agent from the pouring outlet, the liquid agent stored in the concave portion is applied to the hair to prevent the liquid agent from dropping and the liquid agent is evenly applied to the hair.

According to the invention of claim 2, the comb tooth piece is formed by one concave surface extending over the front and rear ends thereof. As a result, the gap between the comb teeth pieces is formed such that the middle portion is wide and the front and rear ends are narrowest. For this reason, the combed hair bundle is squeezed more lightly at the front and rear ends than at the middle portion, and the excess liquid agent flowing out from the spout is easily stored in the concave surface. In addition, if a bulge is formed along the portion where the communication hole is provided in the concave portion of the comb tooth piece, even if it is a thin piece of the comb tooth piece, the thickness of the portion where the communication hole is formed is sufficient. It is possible (claim 3).

In the invention of claim 4, the recess of the comb tooth piece is formed by a plurality of recessed grooves provided in the vertical direction.

According to the fifth aspect of the invention, the tip of the comb tooth piece is formed in a thin piece shape. As a result, the liquid agent can be accurately applied to the hairline.

[0010]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the invention, the concave portion for storing the dispensed liquid agent is formed in the vertical direction on the comb tooth surface facing the other adjacent comb tooth piece. , When applying the liquid agent to the hair, it is difficult for the sauce to fall off,
A container with a comb that can apply the liquid agent evenly can be provided.

As shown in FIG. 2, a male screw portion 1b is formed on the outer periphery of the wide-mouthed rim 1a of the container body 1 having a bottomed cylindrical shape. The cap 2 is hermetically attached to the lip 1a.

The cap 2 is a cylindrical cap body 20.
And a comb body 30 fitted to the cap body 20, each of which is formed by integral molding of plastic. On the inner circumference of the cap body 20, a female screw portion that is externally screwed to the male screw portion 1b of the rim 1a is provided to prevent leakage of the hair dyeing solution. Also, the cap body 20
A substantially rectangular mounting frame 21 is integrally formed on the top surface of the.

The comb body 30 is provided with a mounting base 31 in its lower part and a double substantially rectangular frame for sandwiching the mounting frame 21 on the lower surface side, so that the hair dyeing liquid does not leak. Is installed as.

At the center of the upper surface of the mounting base 31, six thin plate-like comb tooth pieces 32 are provided upright, and end comb tooth pieces 33, 33 of the same shape are provided on both sides of the six comb tooth pieces 32. The comb teeth row is formed by a total of eight comb teeth pieces 32 and 33 which are erected. As shown in FIG. 1, each comb tooth piece 32 has a communication hole 34 communicating with the inside of the container body 1 therein.
It is formed from the lower surface of 1 to a height position of about 3/4.
The tip of the communication hole 34 is located on the side surface of the comb tooth piece 32,
That is, it communicates with the spout 35 that opens toward the adjacent comb tooth pieces 32 and 33. Thereby, the container body 1
The hair dyeing liquid contained therein can be poured out between the comb tooth pieces 32, 33. In addition, since the communication holes 35 are not provided in the both end comb tooth pieces 33, 33 located outside the comb tooth row, the hair dyeing solution does not flow out to the outside of the comb tooth row.

Now, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the comb tooth piece 3
In Nos. 2 and 33, the comb tooth surface 36 facing the adjacent comb tooth pieces 32 and 33 is formed with a recess 37 having the most recessed center in the vertical direction. In the first embodiment, the concave portion 37 is composed of one concave surface over the front and rear ends of the comb tooth surface 36, and the hair dyeing solution that has flowed out to the center of one surface of the comb tooth can be stored in this concave surface. . As a result, as shown in FIG.
When applying the hair dye solution to the hair, the hair is combed by the comb teeth pieces 32 and 33 to form the hair bundle A, respectively, but the center of the comb teeth pieces 32 and 33 is the concave portion 37 that is the most concave. Therefore, a gap V is formed in the central recess 37. Therefore, the hair bundle A is squeezed more lightly at the front and rear ends than at the middle portion, and even if excess hair dyeing solution flows out from the spout 35, this excess hair dyeing solution is retained in the gap V. , Stored. As a result, excess hair dyeing liquid is prevented from dropping from the comb tooth pieces 32 and 33. Then, by repeatedly combing the hair while the outflow of the hair dyeing solution from the spout 35 is stopped, the liquid agent in the gap V is sequentially applied to the hair bundle A, and is evenly applied.
