FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1, taken along the line X-X, showing two inner trays stored in parallel. As is clear from this, in this example, the inner trays are arranged in two rows, front and back,
A total of four pieces are stored in two rows on the left and right.

In addition, other than the above, it is also possible to store more inner plates in the same way, but in this configuration where many inner plates are stored, the inner plates can be placed directly on each other's sides as shown in Figure 2. In order to avoid contact, a wall (not shown) may be provided protruding from the bottom of the main body between adjacent inner plates so that the plates can be stored individually.

In addition, the length and width of the inner plate shown in Figures 1 and 2 are not limited to the size, but the length can be 1/2, the width 1/3, etc., and various combinations can be made depending on the required amount of use. be able to.

FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the previous embodiment in that the presser frame 6 is eliminated and the shape of the sliding frame 5 is modified. This allows the inner plate to be slidably and detachably held.

The sliding frame 5 has support pieces 5a' protruding from the outer periphery of each surrounding frame side except for the central frame side _5a2 , which are supported on the upper surface of the side wall _1a of the container body. The retaining protrusion 5a'' protruding from the outer lower part is connected to the side wall 1a of the container main body.
It is fitted into a sliding groove 1d' formed on the side of the low slope part of the frame 5a1 to be slidably held so that it will not come off, and the upper part of the rear end surface of the frame side _5a1 serves as an actuating part 5c.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the size, number of containers, arrangement configuration, etc. of the inner tray 4 are the same as in the embodiment described above.

Next, regarding the operation, since the structure of the pallet container of the embodiment shown in FIG.
By pushing the actuating part 5c of the sliding frame 5 held between the front and back (toward the left in the figure), the horizontal frame side _5a1 and the central horizontal frame side 5 of the sliding frame 5 are pushed forward (to the left in the figure) at the initial stage of the operation.
Each locking protrusion 5b' provided at the lower rear side of _a2 comes off from the front end locking protrusion 4c of each inner plate, and at the same time, the central horizontal frame side _5a2 and the horizontal frame side 5a of the sliding frame 5 are removed. Since the front side of ₃ contacts the rear end surface of the flange 4b of each inner plate 4, when the sliding frame 5 is further pushed, the inner plate 4 moves forward with the sliding frame 5, that is, to the left in FIG. 1. At this time, medium plate 4
Each front end of the inner plate rides on the slope of the inclined projection 1d on the bottom plate of the container main body, thereby floating the front end of the inner tray.

Simultaneously with the movement of the inner plate, the rear end engagement protrusion 4c of the inner plate is disengaged from the engagement protrusion 1c' of the bottom plate of the main body, and becomes ready for removal. In this case, the sliding frame 5 is supported on the lower part 1a' of the side wall 1a and the painting wall 1a'', and is held by the holding frame 6, so it can be slid forward by being pushed and left as it is. It stays in place, and if you push it backwards, it returns to its original position.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the same effect as in the previous embodiment is achieved by pushing the actuating portion 5c forward. In this case, the supporting piece 5a' of the sliding frame 5 is widely supported on the upper surface of the container main body side wall 1a, and the engaging protrusion 5a'' is fitted and held in the sliding groove 1d' and slides, so that it does not come off or swing. There's nothing to do.

To fit the inner plates into the container main body, when the sliding frame 5 is located toward the rear, push the inner plates from above so that the retaining protrusions 5 of the sliding frame 5 can be fitted by the inclined surfaces 4c' of each plate.
While kicking b' to push the sliding frame 5 forward, the inner plate is accommodated and fitted, and after that, the sliding frame can be slid rearward to engage with the inner plate. Further, when the sliding frame 5 is located toward the front, after storing the inner plate as it is, the sliding frame is moved rearward and the inner plate is locked in the same manner as described above.

Each member is molded from plastic, and each retaining protrusion has elasticity.

<Effects of the invention> Since the structure and operation of the pallet container of the invention are as described above, the following effects are achieved.

(1) The inner tray ejecting mechanism can be made with a simple structure that does not require a spring or other biasing member or a complicated pushing mechanism, and is only molded into a part of the sliding frame.

(2) The sliding frame has the function of supporting the inner plate and allowing it to slide at an incline, and its reciprocating sliding does not return naturally like a spring, so there is no need to hold it down.

(3) Since the structure does not require the troublesome effort of having to put your fingertips into the inner tray after taking out the cosmetics or putting them aside, the operation is easy and quick even when the inner tray is completely filled with cosmetics. The disadvantages of conventional techniques, such as getting the fingertips and nails dirty with cosmetics, and pressing the inner plate using a thin instrument to avoid this, have been eliminated.

(4) Since one end has an inclined surface and an inclined protrusion, and the other end has a locking protrusion, the structure is simple and the assembly work is easy for fitting and removing the inner plate into the container body.
