Abstract:
1. A cosmetic receptacle comprising: a storage container comprising a storage container body having a storage space therein and a pipe-shaped neck part formed in the storage container body such that the neck part is connected to the storage space; an inner cap configured to comprise an inner cap body, through which an inner cap through-opening passes, and a closed-loop shaped inner cap circumferential wall extending from the inner cap body to surround the inner cap through-opening, and detachably coupled to the storage container through the inner cap body such that the inner cap through-opening is connected to the neck part; a discharge operation part for discharging cosmetics stored in the storage space through a nozzle flow path with interworking with manipulation of discharge operation buttons, the discharge operation part comprising a nozzle provided with the nozzle flow path and installed such that the nozzle flow path is connected to the neck part and the discharge operation buttons manipulated by a user when the user desires to discharge the cosmetics stored in the storage space through the nozzle flow path; an outer cap installed such that the outer cap surrounds the inner cap; a shoulder part configured to comprise a support plate provided with a neck passage opening at a center thereof and a skirt part bent from a circumferential portion of the support plate and installed such that the neck part passes through the neck passage opening in a lower region of the inner cap and the shoulder part is supported on the storage container body through the support plate; and a concave auxiliary container comprising a pair of button openings having a phase difference of 180° and mounted to the storage container such that the auxiliary container surrounds the storage container body, wherein the inner cap circumferential wall has a pair of operation protrusion exposure openings having a phase difference of 180°, the nozzle is made of an elastic material, has a concave lever-pressurized surface in an outer surface of the nozzle to surround the nozzle flow path, and is installed in the inner cap through-opening such that the lever-pressurized surface faces the operation protrusion exposure opening, the discharge operation part comprises a nozzle opening/closing valve and a pair of press plates, the nozzle opening/closing valve comprising a ring-shaped valve body, a pair of opening/closing operation levers having a phase difference of 180° and extending from an inner surface of the valve body in a direction in which they approach each other, and a pair of opening/closing operation protrusions extending from an outside surface of the valve body at identical positions of the opening/closing operation levers in a direction in which they are away from each other, the nozzle opening/closing valve being installed in the inner cap such that the opening/closing operation protrusions protrude through the operation protrusion exposure opening, the valve body is deformed when the pair of opening/closing operation protrusions approach each other, and when the valve body is deformed, the pair of opening/closing operation levers press the lever-pressurized surface in both directions until the nozzle flow path is closed, the pair of press plates being formed from the skirt part to reach the button openings, the outer cap is coupled to the inner cap such that the pair of opening/closing operation protrusions protruding through the operation protrusion exposure openings is pressurized in a direction in which they approach each other, and the discharge operation buttons protrude from outer surfaces of the press plates such that the discharge operation buttons enter the button openings.
