Furthermore, when fitting by the method (2) above, it is difficult to adjust the fitting strength, and the solid cosmetic in the metal plate is likely to break because the metal plate deforms during fitting. Also, above (3)
When fitting using this method, if the dimensions of the metal plate and the recess do not match, the metal plate may easily come off, or the metal plate may be tightened more than necessary, causing the solid cosmetic inside the metal plate to break easily. There are drawbacks.

This idea was created by focusing on the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose was to prevent the solid cosmetics in the metal plate from breaking when fitting the metal plate filled with solid cosmetics into the recess of the container body. To provide a compact container which does not cause deformation of the metal plate, can be fitted with appropriate strength without coming off even if the dimensions of the metal plate and the recess do not match, and allows the metal plate to be easily replaced. It's about doing.

<<Means for solving the problem>> In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in this invention, a lid is pivotally attached to the rear of the container body so as to be able to be opened and closed, and the container body is provided with a metal plate filled with solid cosmetics. In a compact container formed by forming a recess into which the container is fitted, a part of the inner circumferential surface of the recess and a bottom surface continuous thereto are cut out to form a notched recess with an inclined inner surface and an enlarged upper part, A slide piece that is slidable up and down along the inner inner surface and has a tongue piece integrally at the lower end is fitted into the cutout recess, and when the slide piece occupies the lower position, the front surface of the slide piece The metal plate is pressed forward to be sandwiched between the front surface of the slide piece and the front surface of the recess opposite thereto, and when the slide piece is slid upward, the front surface of the slide piece retracts backward. Then, the clamping of the metal plate is released, and the lower surface of the metal plate is raised by the tongue piece of the slide piece.

<<Embodiments>> Preferred embodiments of this invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

1 to 4 show a compact container according to a first embodiment of this invention. In the figure, 1 indicates a container body, and a recess 2 is formed in the center of the upper surface of the container body 1, into which a metal plate 3 filled with solid cosmetics is fitted. . Furthermore, a hinge part 4b that hangs integrally from the rear end of the lid 4 is hinged to the rear end of the container body 1 via a pin 5, so that the lid 4 is attached to the container body 1. It can be opened and closed freely.

The lid 4 is formed to cover the upper surface of the container body 1 when closed, and a mirror 6 is adhered to the inner surface thereof. A claw piece 7 is suspended from the front end of the lid, and a first engaging protrusion 8 is formed on the inner surface of the claw piece 7. A notch 9 is formed at the front end of the container body 1 in correspondence with the claw piece 7, and a second engaging protrusion 10 is formed on the inner inner surface of the notch 9, so that the lid body 4 can be closed. At times, the first engagement protrusion 8 and the second engagement protrusion 10 are engaged to occupy the closed position.

The rear end of the inner circumferential surface of the recess 2 of the container body 1 of this compact container and the rear end of the bottom surface continuous thereto are cut out, and the cross section is approximately L-shaped with the inner inner surface inclined and the upper part enlarged. A notch recess 11 is formed.

A slide piece 12 is fitted into the cutout recess 11, and the slide piece 12 is formed with an inclined back surface so that it can slide freely on the inner inner surface of the cutout recess 11. Also,
A tongue piece 12a is integrally formed at the lower end thereof, and is adapted to fit into the lower surface of the notch recess 11. A long groove 13 is formed on the side surface of the slide piece 12, and a shaft-shaped protrusion 1 is formed on the inner surface of the notch recess 11.
4 is formed, and this shaft-like protrusion piece 14 is slidably inserted from the upper end to the lower end of the long groove 13 of the slide piece 12. As a result, the slide piece 12 fitted into the notch 11 can slide in the vertical direction of the notch recess 11, and when the shaft-shaped protrusion 14 is at the lower end of the long groove 13, the slide piece 12 is fitted into the notch recess 11. When it reaches the upper end of the long groove 13, the shaft-like protrusion 14 is locked there, preventing the slide piece 12 from being raised any further and preventing it from coming out of the notched recess 11.

Then, when the slide piece 12 is slid downward so as to fit into the notch recess 11, the front surface of the slide piece 12 gradually moves forward because the inner surface of the notch recess is inclined, and the slide piece 1
The distance between the front surface of the recess 2 and the front surface of the recess 2 that opposes this narrows, and at the same time, the metal plate 3 is pressed forward by the front surface of the slide piece 12, and the slide piece 12
A metal plate 3 is sandwiched between the front surface and the front surface of the recess 2 facing the front surface. When the slide piece 12 is moved upward, the front surface of the slide piece retracts rearward and the clamping of the metal plate 3 is released.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, when the lid body 4 is closed, the top surface of the slide piece 12 is pressed so that the slide piece 12 does not move upward and the metal plate 3 comes off from the recess 2. The convex portion 4a is the lid body 4
It is integrally formed on the rear end of the inner surface. Also, the third
This figure and FIG. 4 show a mechanism for automatically raising the slide piece 12 in order to take out the metal plate 3 from the recess 2 when the lid body 4 is opened to a predetermined angle or more.

That is, in order to raise the slide piece 12, a projecting piece 12b is integrally formed by extending the upper end of the slide piece.
When the projecting piece 12 is fitted into the notch recess 11,
b is adapted to protrude rearward from the upper end of the inner inner surface of the notch recess 11, while a protrusion 4c is formed at the lower end of the hinge part 4b hanging down from the rear end of the lid 4. . When the lid body 4 is opened, the hinge part 4b rotates and the lower end part rises, and the protrusion 4
c pushes up the projecting piece 12b of the slide piece 12 from the lower surface, thereby raising the slide piece 12.

Although not shown in the figure, when fitting the metal plate into the recess of the container body, move the slide piece up and place the lower end of the metal plate on the tongue piece, then insert the metal plate into the recess. When a metal plate is placed diagonally into the chamber and a finger is placed on the edge of the metal plate and pressed downward, the slide piece descends and is fitted into the notch. Then, the metal plate is pressed forward by the slide piece and is clamped in the recess.

5 and 6 show a compact container according to a second embodiment of this invention. In the compact container of the second embodiment, the slide piece 1
2, the bottom surface of the cutout recess 11 is bored to form an opening 15. and,
The structure is such that the entire slide piece 12 is raised by inserting a fingertip or the like into the opening 15 and pushing up the lower surface of the tongue piece 12a of the slide piece 12.The other structure is the same as that of the first embodiment. be. According to the second embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, the protrusion 12b at the upper end of the slide piece 12
Since there is no protrusion 4c at the lower end of the hinge portion 4b, the slide piece 12 will not be raised even if the lid 4 is opened wide, and the slide piece 12 will not rise if the lid is opened wide inadvertently. , which prevents the gold plate from detaching.

<<Effects>> As described above, in the compact container according to this invention, a recess into which a metal plate filled with a solid cosmetic is fitted is formed in the container body, and a recess is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the recess and the bottom surface following the recess. A notched recess is formed, a slide piece that can be slid up and down is fitted into this, and this slide piece is slid up and down within the notched recess to sandwich the gold plate between the inner circumferential surface of the recess and the slide piece. It is designed to release the plate from being caught. Therefore, the metal plate can be fitted into the recess without being deformed, and even if the dimensions of the metal plate and the recess do not match slightly, the metal plate can be fitted with appropriate strength, making it easy to remove the metal plate when carrying. You no longer have to worry about the cosmetics inside breaking. In addition, the tongue piece formed at the lower end of the slide piece is designed to hold the bottom surface of the metal plate and move up and down, making it easy to remove the metal plate from the recess and fit it into the recess. It is also easy to replace.
