By the way, in the case of the one-touch type compact as mentioned above, even if the hook member is inadvertently pressed when not in use, the top lid will open, and the stored cosmetic materials will accidentally come out, for example. There is a problem in that the inside of the handbag in which the compact is carried gets dirty, or the quality of the decorative material itself is deteriorated due to the appearance of the compact.

Therefore, the technical problem of this invention is to prevent the top cover from opening even if the hook member is inadvertently pressed when not in use.

(3) Means for solving the problems In order to solve the above problems, the compact of this invention is characterized by adopting the following technical means. In other words, a lower cover has a recess for fitting the inner frame on its surface and a through hole in the front end wall, and a portion of the lower lid protrudes outward from the through hole in the recess, and in the direction of this projection. a hook member disposed so as to be displaceable in a direction intersecting with the hook member; a middle frame having an opening at the front end above the hook member and fitted to cover the recess of the lower lid; and a rear end of the lower lid. The hook member is provided with an upper lid pivotably supported on the lower lid so as to be openable and closable, and the hook member is in contact with engaging pieces provided on the lower lid or the middle frame on both sides thereof, so that a part of the hook member is always inserted through the through hole of the lower lid. The hook member has an elastic portion that tends to protrude outward, and the hook member has a recessed hole that communicates with the opening of the inner frame, and a first engagement member is provided on the side end side of the recessed hole in the direction in which the hook member is displaced. A stop protrusion is provided, and a second one is provided on the rear end side.
A locking protrusion is provided at the front end of the upper lid, and the first part of the hook member is inserted through the opening of the middle frame when the lid is closed.
A third locking protrusion that locks with the locking protrusion and a fourth locking protrusion that locks with the second locking protrusion of the hook member are provided, respectively, and the third locking protrusion of the top lid locks with the hook member when the lid is opened. The fourth locking projection disengages from the first locking projection of the hook member by displacing the hook member, and the fourth locking projection releases the second locking projection of the hook member by pressing the hook member into the lower lid against the elastic force of the elastic portion. It is designed so that it can be detached from the stop projection.

(4) Function When the lid is closed and not in use, the second locking protrusion of the hook member and the fourth locking protrusion of the top cover are normally locked, and the first locking protrusion of the hook member and the third locking protrusion of the top cover are locked. is engaged and locked. When the hook member is displaced in the above state and is pressed into the lower lid against the elastic force of the elastic portion, the first
When the third locking protrusion separates from the second and fourth locking protrusions, the locks are released, and the top cover is lifted upward, the lid is opened. After opening the lid, the pressing of the hook member is stopped, and the hook member is returned to its original position by the elastic restoring force of the elastic portion, and the hook member is displaced in the opposite direction. To close the lid from the open state, press the top lid toward the bottom lid. As a result, the fourth locking protrusion of the top lid is locked to the second locking protrusion of the hook member through the opening of the middle frame, and the lid is closed, and the first locking protrusion of the hook member is locked to the third locking protrusion of the top lid. It is locked into the locking protrusion. Therefore, in the locked state where the first and third locking protrusions are locked, it is possible to press the hook member and release the second and fourth locking protrusions, but the first and third locking protrusions It is impossible to open the lid because the protrusion is locked.

To assemble each of the above members, first attach the hook member 5.
The operating protrusion 17 is arranged in the recess 7 so as to protrude outward from the cutout hole 9 of the lower lid 2, and the inner frame 4 is arranged so as to cover the hook member 5 with the engaging piece as shown in FIG. 15, 15a to the elastic portions 18, 1 of the hook member 5.
8a by pressure contact and attached to the lower lid 2.
Moreover, the upper lid 3 is arranged so as to cover the middle frame 4,
The locking portion 27 is locked with the locking portion 8 of the lower lid 2,
A pivot pin 31 with a spring 30 interposed therein is inserted into the pin hole provided in both the locking parts 8 and 27. By this,
The upper lid 3 is pivoted to the lower lid 2 so that it can be opened and closed.

Next, the operation of the above-mentioned compact 1 will be explained.

The locking protrusion 22 of the hook member 5 and the locking protrusion 29 of the upper lid 3 are engaged, and the locking protrusion 2 of the hook member 5
1 and the locking projection 28 of the upper lid 3 are engaged and locked in the closed state shown in FIGS. When the hook member 5 is moved, the locking projection 21 of the hook member 5 is disengaged from the locking projection 28 of the upper lid 3, and the lock is released (FIGS. 3 and 9A).

After the lock is released, as shown in FIG. 9B, when the operating protrusion 17 is pressed into the lower lid 2 with a finger against the elastic force of the elastic parts 18, 18a, the operating protrusion 17 changes from a solid line to a chain line. The locking projection 22 of the hook member 5 is disengaged from the locking projection 29 of the upper lid 3.
When both the locking protrusions 22 and 29 are released, the upper cover 3 is lifted upward by the force of the spring 30 and opened. After opening the lid, the operation protrusion 1 by the finger is
When you stop pressing 7, the operating protrusion 17 moves to the elastic part 1.
Due to the elastic restoring force of 8 and 18a, it returns to its original position protruding outward from the notch hole 9 again.

On the other hand, in order to close the lid from the open state, the upper lid 3 is pressed toward the lower lid 2. As a result, the locking projection 29 of the upper lid 3 comes to lock with the locking projection 22 of the hook member 5 through the opening 13 of the middle frame 4, and the lid is in a closed state. After closing the lid, when the operating protrusion 17 of the hook member 5 is slid to the opposite side, that is, in the direction of the arrow in FIGS. 3, 6, and 9A, the locking protrusion 2 of the hook member 5 is slid.
1 is re-latched to the locking protrusion 28 of the upper lid 3, and the eighth,
The lock state shown in Fig. 10 is reached.

When the operation protrusion 17 of the hook member 5 slides, the engagement part 19 of the elastic part 18 rides over and engages with the engagement protrusion 16 of the engagement piece 15, and the operation in the closed state is performed. The sliding position of the protrusion 17 is determined.

As described above, in the locked state in which the locking protrusion 21 of the hook member 5 and the locking protrusion 28 of the upper lid 3 are locked, the operating protrusion 17 of the hook member 5 is pressed to lock the locking protrusion 22 of the hook member 5. Locking protrusion 29 on top lid 3
Although it is possible to separate the upper cover 3 from the upper cover 3, since both the locking protrusions 21 and 28 remain locked, the upper cover 3 cannot be opened upward.

FIG. 11 shows another embodiment of this invention. In this embodiment, both corners of the front end of the operating protrusion 17' of the hook member 5' are cut out to form a pressing part 41, and the operating protrusion 17' is curved in the opposite direction to the elastic part 18a. A small elastic portion 43 is provided, and the small elastic portion 43
The tip of the elastic part 18 is pressed into engagement with the engagement piece 44 provided on the lower lid 2, and the tip engagement part 19 of the elastic part 18
The engaging piece 15' with which the hook member 5' engages is formed to be the same as the engaging piece 15a without the engaging protrusion 16, and the engaging piece 15' and the engaging piece 44 engage the elastic part 1 of the hook member 5'.
8 and 43, so that the operating protrusion 17' can be elastically displaced in a direction crossing the protruding direction, rather than sliding like the operating protrusion 17. Unlike the embodiment, the configuration of the other parts is the same.

Therefore, in the other embodiment as described above, in the closed state of FIGS. 8 and 10, the pressing portion 41 of the operating protrusion 17' of the hook member 5' protruding outward from the notch hole 9 is indicated by the arrow. When the hook member 5' is pressed diagonally rearward while pushing to the left, the operating protrusion 17' of the hook member 5' is elastically displaced toward the engaging pieces 15a and 44, thereby causing the hook member 5' The locking projection 21 of the hook member 5' connects to the locking projection 28 of the upper lid 3, and the locking projection 22 of the hook member 5' connects to the locking projection 29 of the upper lid 3.
Almost simultaneously, the lock is released and the top cover 3 is opened, and the top cover 3 is opened. After opening the lid,
When the pressing part 41 stops pressing, the operating protrusion 17' is displaced toward the engagement piece 15 by the elastic restoring force of the elastic parts 18, 18a, and 43, and returns to its original position protruding outward from the notch hole 9 again. Become.

To close the lid, press the upper lid 3 toward the lower lid 2. As a result, the locking protrusion 29 of the top cover 3 locks with the locking protrusion 22 of the hook member 5', and the locking protrusion 28 of the top cover 3 locks with the locking protrusion 21 of the hook member 5' almost simultaneously, and the lid is closed. A lock is made.

Thus, the alternative embodiment has the advantage that the top cover can be opened, closed and locked more quickly.

(6) Effects of the invention This invention is as described above, and when not in use, the hook member only needs to be positioned so that its first locking protrusion locks with the third locking protrusion of the top cover.
By doing this, it is possible to create a locked state in which the top cover does not open even if the hook member is pressed, which prevents the problem of the conventional case where the hook member is inadvertently pressed when not in use. It has excellent effects such as being able to completely eliminate the problems of compact size.
