Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cosmetic jar with a bowl-shaped lower housing part, a powder pan and / or the like receiving insert within the lower housing part and a hinged lid, with paired, hook-shaped latching elements for locking the lid and lower housing part, a first latching element integrally on the lid is formed, as well as with a handle to unlock the locking elements.
  • a sufficient path for the same and for the handle is required to securely unlock the latching elements so that the cosmetic jar can be opened effortlessly, even taking tolerances into account.
  • the parts must have sufficient strength and be guided in a common and ergonomically favorable manner.
  • the object of the invention is a safe guidance of the handle over a large displacement and a high strength of the locking elements, furthermore inexpensive to manufacture and easy to use for the user.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in that the second locking element sits in one piece on the lower housing part and that the pusher is connected to the insert via a V-shaped support, is guided in a straight line in a passage of the lower housing part and that approaches of the pusher with the first locking element can be brought into engagement.
  • the invention differs from the prior art in that the latching element connected to the bottom of the lower housing part can be deformed over the entire height of the lower housing part for unlocking.
  • the deformation path is therefore quite large.
  • the pusher on the other hand can be adjusted in a straight line over a long way.
  • the handle engages a long lever arm of the locking element so that the required actuation force is low.
  • the straight-line guidance of the handle has an ergonomic advantage for the user; because any pivoting of the handle is perceived as unpleasant. Swiveling movements are laid alone in the locking elements and do not affect the user when actuated.
  • a uniform guidance of the handle results from the fact that several supports are provided for the handle.
  • a straight and tilt-free guidance of the handle is achieved in that guide strips of the handle are guided on the undercut edges of the passage of the front wall.
  • a secure closure is ensured by the fact that the lugs of the locking elements interlock with the profile surfaces.
  • Raising the lid when opening is ensured in that a profile surface of the handle interacts with a profile surface of the first latching element in the sense of lifting the lid during the opening process.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 schematically show a cosmetic jar 1 consisting of a bowl-shaped lower housing part 2 with a pusher 4 and a lid 3.
  • the lid 3 is connected to the lower housing part 2 by a hinge 5.
  • a first locking element 6 is integrally formed in the cover 3.
  • the second locking element 7 is plate-shaped and integrally formed on the bottom 8 of the lower housing part 2, as can be seen from FIG. 3.
  • the button 4 which comes from the front wall 10 of the lower housing part 2 protrudes, the cover 3 is unlocked according to FIG. 1.
  • the cosmetic jar can then be opened easily.
  • the lower housing part, the cover and the insert are expediently thermoplastic injection molded parts made of the same or different thermoplastics.
  • the lower housing part 2 is bowl-shaped and receives an insert 9 for a powder pan.
  • the insert 9 can consist of a softer material than the cover 3 and the lower housing part 2.
  • the pusher 4 is formed on one side wall thereof via one or more V-shaped supports 11.
  • the carriers 11 are band-shaped, that is to say as thin and deformable as possible, so that the pusher 4 can be moved with little effort.
  • the pusher 4 projects through a passage 13 in the front wall 10 of the lower housing part 2 and is movable in the direction of the double arrow 12, FIGS. 3 and 6.
  • the carriers 11 represent a flexible guide and also provide a restoring force.
  • the passage 13 has undercut edges 14 which engage in the guide strips 15 of the pusher 4. This ensures that the handle 4 is guided in a straight line.
  • On the inside of the handle 4 on the one hand a profile surface 16 inclined to the direction of movement and on the other hand peg-shaped projections 17 are provided, which come into engagement with the latching element 7 during the movement of the handle.
  • the end faces 25 of the lugs 17 are inclined so that the lugs 17 come into engagement with the upper end of the locking element 7.
  • the locking element 7 is essentially plate-shaped and has a nose 18 at the upper end with a profile surface 19 inclined towards the plate plane.
  • the latching surface of the nose 18 is also inclined.
  • the locking element 7 delimits a slot 23 with the profile surface 16 and the shoulders 17 of the pusher 4.
  • the locking element 6 of the lid 3 has a nose 20 which is profiled essentially complementary to the nose 18.
  • a profile surface 21 is inclined in accordance with the profile surface 19.
  • a profile surface 22 is provided, which is designed to match the profile surface 16.
  • the locking element 6 is dimensioned so that it fits through the slot 23.
  • Fig. 3 shows the locking elements in the closed state.
  • the locking element 6 rests with the nose 20 on the nose 18 of the locking element 7.
  • the cosmetic box 1 is kept closed by the inclined latching surfaces of the lugs 18 and 20 and by the restoring force of the latching elements 6 and 7.
  • the button 4 is pressed inwards. 4, the locking element 7 is deformed so that the lugs 18 and 20 come apart.
  • the cover 3 is raised by the action of the profile surfaces 16 and 22, as can be seen from FIG. 4. However, this is also possible in another way.
  • the profile surfaces 19 and 21 are provided, which cause the locking elements to deflect when the cosmetic jar is closed.
