Make-up box I

The invention relates to a make-up box with a vessel part and a lid hinged to it, which is in particular on the inside has a mirror.

It is known to offer powder or other non-volatile cosmetics in make-up boxes of this type. On the other hand, they are fleeting Creams containing substances, such as perfume creams, packed in tightly closed cans or tubes.

On the other hand, the practical advantages of a make-up box with an easily hinged lid and one on top of it Inside arranged mirror obviously.

The invention is therefore based on the object of a make-up box with a vessel part and an articulated, in particular internally mirrored lid to create, in which creams containing volatile components can also be packaged.

According to a first embodiment of the invention, this object is achieved in that the vessel part also has an inner lid is articulated, which seals a recess formed in the vessel part. In the recess sealed in this way, the Cream containing volatile substances is hermetically sealed, so that its quality does not change even after prolonged storage reduced.

According to another embodiment of the invention, a vessel part and a lid articulated thereon are provided in one Make-up box fitted an insert part which is provided with a recess which is hinged to the insert part by a Inner lid is sealed. Creams packaged in this recess therefore cannot contain their volatile constituents lose.

In particular, the last-mentioned embodiment of the invention has the advantage that a conventional make-up box, which was previously only suitable for holding non-volatile cosmetics was, can be redesigned to include cosmetics with volatile components, such as perfume creams can.

The well-known advantages of the well-known powder compacts, namely the compact, space-saving design, the ease of use and the saving of a special mirror, also remain with the make-up boxes according to the invention for accommodating volatile Obtain creams containing ingredients.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention it is provided that the recess in said insert part is designed circular and that the inner cover on its the recess facing side has an annular projection which can be pressed into the recess with a precise fit. Thus, the Recess to be sealed by the annular projection. The use of an annular projection is advantageous in that than this has a non-tiring elasticity even with prolonged use, so that the sealing effect is not can subside.

In a particular embodiment of the invention, the ring-shaped The outside of the projection is provided with a protruding lip which comes to rest against the inner wall of the recess. The sealing lip is preferably on the edge of the front

Jump arranged and ensures both a good seal of the recess and easy opening of the inner corner, without tilting.

So that the insert can be replaced with a tight press fit in the vessel part is, its material is chosen so that it has a suitable coefficient of elasticity, so for example Polypropylene.

ILi a special embodiment of the invention is provided that the inner cover has an annular, directed away from the recess bulge, from which the projection in Direction of the recess protrudes. This configuration has the advantage that the projection has a considerable height can have without penetrating too deeply into the recess. Due to the height, the projection gains the necessary for sealing Elasticity.

Furthermore, the bulge can advantageously be dimensioned in such a way that, when the cover is closed, it is located on the inside thereof supports that the projection is necessarily pressed into the position in which it seals the recess. When closed The lid of the make-up box is also guaranteed that the inner lid seals the recess.

The pivot axes of the cover and the inner cover are preferred arranged perpendicular to each other, which promotes the convenience of handling. The lid of the make-up box can be in the usual Way be provided with an elastic locking lug, which holds it in the closed position.

The insert part pushed into the vessel part is also corresponding provided with two opposing lugs which fit into corresponding recesses in the inner wall of the vessel part intervene elastically.

The make-up box according to the invention not only enables the tight Packaging of creams containing volatile components, but also at the same time the storage of powder. For this is in a variant of the invention, the top of the inner cover is provided with a further recess into which the Powder block is fitted. The powder is loosened from the block with a brush and applied. Since powder is not volatile Contains substances, it does not need to be hermetically sealed.

The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of an exemplary embodiment. It shows:

1 shows a section through a make-up box according to the invention with an insert part;

FIG. 2 shows a plan view of a make-up box according to FIG. 1, with the cover removed and the inner cover fully opened is;

FIG. 3 shows a plan view corresponding to FIG. 2 with the inner cover closed; FIG. and

4 shows a detailed representation of the sealing of the recess.

The make-up box 10 shown in FIG. 1 has a vessel part 12 and a lid 14 hinged to it. On the inside A mirror 16 is arranged on the cover so that it can be used when the cover is opened.

In the vessel part 12 of the make-up box 10, an insert part 18 made of polypropylene is fitted with a press fit. The vessel part 12, too and the lid 14 of the make-up box 10 are made in a known manner from a plastic.

FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the make-up box according to FIG. 1, with the lid 14 removed. In the assembled state, the cover 14 would be in a known manner by means of a pin hinge articulated in the recess 19 on the vessel part 12. According to FIG. 2, the inner cover 20 is attached to the insert part via an articulated hinge 21 18 hinged. In the open position shown, the inner cover 20 exposes a recess 22 in the insert part 18. The cream containing volatile components is arranged in this recess. An annular projection 24 sealingly engages into the recess 22, which is explained in more detail below with reference to FIG.

Fig. 3 shows a plan view of the make-up box with the lid removed, the inner lid 20 being closed.

Details of the sealing according to the invention of the recess receiving the cream can be seen in FIG. 4, which shows a detail of Fig. 1 on an enlarged scale. Here, too, the cover is for the purpose of a clearer representation 14 omitted. A sealing lip 26 is arranged on the outside of the annular projection 24, which lip is connected to the inner wall 28 of the recess 22 is in engagement. In Fig. 4, the inner cover 20 is in its closed position. He has one of the recess 22 facing away bulge 30, from which the annular projection 24 protrudes downward. Through this Arrangement, the annular projection 24 can have a considerable height without it being too deep into the recess 22 penetrates and there pushes cream away from the inner wall 28.

The height of the bulge 30 is chosen so that when the cover 14 is closed (not shown in Fig. 4) the bulge on the Cover 14 abuts in order to bring the inner cover 20 into the closed position shown in FIG. 4. So it is guaranteed that with the lid 14 closed, the cream is packaged in a sealed manner in the recess 22.

Fig. 4 also shows the interference fit of the insert part 18 in the vessel part 12 of the can 10. For this purpose, the insert 18 is provided with a resilient nose 32 which is inserted into a recess 34 in the Inner wall of the vessel part 12 engages. The insert part 18 is thus secured in the vessel part 12.

According to FIG. 4, the bulge 30 forms a recess 36 (see also Fig. 3) on the top of the inner lid. This recess 36 can be used to hold non-volatile cosmetics, such as powder, to serve.
