Abstract:
1. A stick-shaped material propelling container for propelling and retracting a stick-shaped material whose cross section is of a polygon comprising: an outer barrel; an inner barrel slidably inserted in the outer barrel; an elastic body provided between the inner barrel and the outer barrel to urge the inner barrel rearward in accordance with a slide movement of the inner barrel; a plurality of chuck pieces provided at a front end portion of the inner barrel to fasten and release a stick-shaped material, said chuck pieces capable of advancing and retracting; a chuck ring inserted between the chuck pieces and the outer barrel; and frictional force applying parts formed on an inner peripheral surface of said outer barrel to impart a frictional force to a stick-shaped material so as to hold it in position while the chuck pieces are retracting, each frictional force applying part being assigned to a vertex of the polygon of a stick-shaped material and comprising a pair of flexible projections which project radially inward from the inner peripheral surface of said outer barrel and are adapted to abut on adjacent sides to the assigned vertex of the polygon symmetrically with respect to a center line of the polygon, which passes through the assigned vertex between the adjacent sides of the polygon.
