Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] "Industrial application field" The present invention relates to a compact cosmetic container.

"Prior Art" Conventionally, in this type of container, a synthetic resin lid plate is rotatably attached to a synthetic resin container body at the rear edge, and the lid is held in an open state by a spring or the like. Generally, the closed state of the lid was maintained by elastic engagement between an engaging piece attached to the lid plate and an engaging element attached to the container body.

``Problems that the invention aims to solve'' In conventional containers, springs and other elements are required to keep the lid open, which increases costs due to an increase in the number of parts, and also requires additional components to keep the lid closed. There was a risk that the elastic engagement between the mating piece and the engaging element would become stiff due to some dimensional errors caused by shrinkage during molding of the container body and lid plate.

The present invention was proposed in consideration of these circumstances, and the purpose is to propose a compact cosmetic container that reduces costs, facilitates opening/closing operations, and is attractive. .

"Means for Solving the Problems" In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the cosmetic compact container of the present invention has a recess 2 for storing articles in the upper surface, and short side walls 3, 3 from both left and right rear sides.
a container main body 1 with a concave portion 14 formed in the center of the rear end surface; and an upper wall 5 that is openably and closably fitted between the short side walls to close the top surface of the container main body.
A lid plate 4 with a rear wall 6 hanging down from the rear edge and a rear part of the top wall 5 pivoted to the rear part of the short side wall, and a rear opening slidably fitted onto the front outer surface of the container body. It has a cylindrical part 10, and a bottom wall 11 of the cylindrical part 10 extends rearward to slidably pass through the lower part of the container main body, with its rear end protruding into the recess 14, and a rear end of the bottom wall 11. a sliding member 9 with guide frames 12, 12 standing upright from both left and right sides of the cover plate rear wall 6 forming a vertically elongated hole 13; 8 and by pulling out the sliding member 9 forward with respect to the container body, the lid plate 4 rotates around the pivot portion 7 and the lid can be opened.

"Operation" When the sliding member 9 is pulled out forward with respect to the container body 1 from the state shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the vertical holes 1 of the guide frames 12, 12 attached to the sliding member 9
3 with pins 8, 8 connected to the bell crank-shaped lid plate 4
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the movement converting mechanism constituted by the above-mentioned coupled state rotates clockwise around the pivot portion 7 formed by a pin or the like to stand up and open the lid.

Conversely, when the sliding member 9 is pushed into the main body 1 from the state shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the cover plate 4 will turn counterclockwise around the pivot portion 7 and lie down, closing. Cover.

Embodiment The container according to the present invention is composed of a container body 1, a lid plate 4, and a sliding member 9, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

The container body 1 has a rectangular plate shape, and has short side walls 3, 3 standing up from both left and right sides. Further, at this rear part, a recess 14 is formed in which the guide frames 12 of the sliding member 9 and the cover plate rear wall 6 that engage with the guide frames 12 can move forward and backward. Furthermore, there are 15 makeup brushes on the top.
One recess 2 with an open end and a relatively deep bottom for storing cosmetics 16, a mirror 17, etc., and two relatively shallow recesses 2, 2 for storing cosmetics 16, a mirror 17, etc.
One deep-bottomed recess 2 is formed by the upper wall of the rear opening cylindrical portion 10 of the sliding member 9, and two shallow-bottomed recesses 2, 2
is adapted to be opened and closed by a cover plate 4.
Further, a guide hole 18 is provided horizontally in the lower part of the interior, into which the bottom wall 11 of the sliding member 9 can slide.

The lid plate 4 is made of a transparent material, and is fitted between the short side walls to allow the rear wall 6 to hang down from the rear edge of the upper wall 5 that closes off the upper surface of the container body except for the front part. 5, the rear part is pivotally attached 7 to the rear part of the short side wall.

The sliding member 9 extends the bottom wall 11 of the rear opening cylindrical portion 10, which is removably fitted to the outer surface of the front portion of the container body, rearward along the bottom surface of the container body, and extends from both left and right sides of the rear end of the bottom wall. Guide frames 12, 12 forming a vertically elongated hole 13 are erected from the guide frames 12, 12, and pins 8, 8 protruding from both left and right sides of the lower end of the cover plate rear wall 6 are engaged in the lower part of the frame. Further, a through hole 19 is bored in the middle portion of the bottom wall 11, and a stopper piece 20 having an engaging protrusion 20a at its tip projects from one side wall of the through hole. Two concave grooves 21a, 2 are formed at predetermined positions of the closed lid position and the opened lid position on the bottom wall of the sliding member on the inner wall surface of the guide hole 18 of the container body 1.
It is configured to be elastically fitted to 1b.

By pulling out the sliding member 9 forward with respect to the container body, the lid plate 4 is moved around the pivot portion.
The lid can be opened by rotating.

``Effects of the invention'' As explained above, the container of the present invention has the above-described structure and can maintain the lid open state without the need for springs, etc. unlike conventional products, which reduces costs by reducing the number of parts. This can be reduced. In addition, there is less influence caused by shrinkage during molding of synthetic resins, etc.
Improved ease of assembly allows for smoother opening and closing operations of the lid. Furthermore, the upper surface of the container body can be tightly covered by the upper surface of the sliding member and the upper surface of the lid plate, and deterioration of the cosmetics in the article storage recess can be prevented as much as possible. Furthermore, the lid plate can be opened and closed simply by inserting and removing the sliding member from the container body, and the lid opening/closing mechanism is completely different from conventional products, making it more interesting to use, making it suitable as a compact cosmetic container. This has the effect of increasing marketability.
