Abstract

The device comprises a body which has an operating part, by which the magnet element is movable in the hollow space, and thus the magnet element is transferred in a closed position (31) and an open position. The small components are located to a large extent in the hollow space in the closed position. The small components project out of the thinning area of the body with their gripping ends and so are accessible to an operator in the opening position. The device is completely or partly made of plastic.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Art. Solche Vorrichtungen finden Verwendung zur Aufbewahrung von magnetisierbaren Kleinteilen, wie Näh- und Stecknadeln, Haarnadeln, Nägeln oder Ähnlichem. Diese Teile müssen einerseits gut und sicher gelagert und aufbewahrt werden, andererseits aber auch einem Benutzer zugänglich gemacht werden und zwar auf möglichst einfache Art, da dieser bei den zugehörigen Arbeiten, wie Säume abstecken oder Haare frisieren, häufig nur eine Hand zum Greifen eines Kleinteils zur Verfügung hat.The invention relates to a device specified in the preamble of claim 1. Art Such devices are used for storing small magnetizable parts, such as sewing and needles, hairpins, nails or the like. On the one hand, these parts have to be stored and stored well and safely, but on the other hand they must be made accessible in the simplest possible way, as they frequently stick out only a hand when gripping a small part in the associated work, such as setting out seams or hair Has available.

Das deutsche Gebrauchsmuster DE 1 753 070 beschreibt einen Klarsichtbehälter für Nadeln, bei welchem die Nadelunterlage sich beim Öffnen des Behälters selbsttätig bewegt, so dass einzelne Nadeln entnommen werden können. Nachteilig bei dieser Anordnung ist, dass die Nadeln in einzelne Aufnahmen positioniert werden müssen, so dass zum Zurücklegen der Nadeln in den Behälter zwei Hände benötigt werden. Außerdem sind die Behälter nur für eine relativ geringe Anzahl an Nadeln ausgebildet. Um die Anzahl der im Behälter befindlichen Nadeln zu erhöhen, wie es beispielsweise für Stecknadeln sinnvoll ist, muss der Behälter deutlich verbreitert werden, was ihn relativ schnell unhandlich macht.The German utility model DE 1 753 070 describes a transparent container for needles, in which the needle pad moves automatically when opening the container, so that individual needles can be removed. A disadvantage of this arrangement is that the needles must be positioned in individual receptacles, so that two hands are needed to return the needles in the container. In addition, the containers are designed only for a relatively small number of needles. In order to increase the number of needles in the container, as is useful, for example, for pins, the container must be significantly widened, which makes him relatively quickly unwieldy.

Das deutsche Patent DE 61 165 zeigt ebenfalls einen Nadelbehälter. Dieser umfasst zwei Teile, die gegeneinander verdreht werden können. Durch diese Verdrehung werden die Nadeln entweder ins Innere des Behälters gebracht oder ragen mit ihrem Griffende über den gesamten Behälterumfang aus dem Behälter heraus. Der Behälter selbst besitzt eine konzentrische Einlage aus weichem Material, welcher mit einem Filz, Tuch oder Ähnlichem bezogen ist. Die Nadeln werden in diese Einlage gesteckt, um in der Vorrichtung gehaltert zu werden. Auch hier ergibt sich der Nachteil, dass Nadeln, welche zurückgelegt werden, zunächst in die Einlage gesteckt werden müssen. Werden sie nicht richtig hereingesteckt, so besteht die Gefahr, dass die Nadeln bzw. die Kleinteile herausfallen können. Auch ist diese Vorrichtung nicht geeignet für Gegenstände, die nicht spitz zulaufen, wie es bei einigen Haarnadeln beispielsweise der Fall ist. Außerdem ist die Vorrichtung schwierig zu handhaben, da die Nadeln über den gesamten Umfang aus dem Behälter in seine Offenstellung herausstehen. Hierdurch besteht die Gefahr von Verletzungen für die Bedienperson.The German patent DE 61 165 also shows a needle container. This includes two parts that can be twisted against each other. By this rotation, the needles are either placed inside the container or protrude with their grip end over the entire container circumference out of the container. The container itself has a concentric insert of soft material, which is covered with a felt, cloth or the like. The needles are inserted into this insert to be held in the device. Again, there is the disadvantage that needles, which are covered, must first be inserted into the insert. If they are not inserted correctly, there is a risk that the needles or the small parts may fall out. Also, this device is not suitable for items that are not tapered, as is the case with some hairpins, for example. In addition, the device is difficult to handle, since the needles protrude over the entire circumference of the container in its open position. This creates the risk of injury to the operator.

Das Dokument US 2,600,589 wiederum beschreibt einen Magnetbehälter für längliche Gegenstände aus magnetisierbarem Material. Dieser Behälter weist mehrere Öffnungen für die Gegenstände, wie beispielsweise Nadeln oder Haarnadeln auf. Außerdem ist mindestens ein Magnet vorgesehen, welcher zumindest bereichsweise eine Wandung der Aufnahmen für die Nadeln bildet. Die Nadeln sind aus diesem Behälter schwer entnehmbar und können, je nachdem wie viele Nadeln pro Ausnehmung vorgesehen sind, kaum von einer Bedienperson einzeln entnommen werden.The document US 2,600,589 again describes a magnetic container for elongated objects made of magnetizable material. This container has several openings for the objects, such as needles or hairpins. In addition, at least one magnet is provided, which at least partially forms a wall of the receptacles for the needles. The needles are difficult to remove from this container and, depending on how many needles are provided per recess, can hardly be removed individually by an operator.

Das Gemeinschaftsgeschmacksmuster 732 276-0001 zeigt einen zylinderförmigen Behälter für Nadeln. In diesem ist ein Magnetelement höhenverschieblich angeordnet, um die Nadeln ins Innere des Behälters zu bringen oder auch mit ihrem Griffende herausragen zu lassen. Das Magnetelement muss jedoch manuell im Behälter bewegt werden. So wird der Deckel des Behälters entfernt und der Behälter mit seiner Öffnung nach unten gehalten, um dann durch eine Schüttelbewegung der Hand des Benutzers das Magnetelement im Behälter zu bewegen und die Nadeln für die Bedienperson zugänglich zu machen. Nachteilig hieran ist jedoch, dass bei einem zu starken Schütteln die Nadeln aus dem Behälter herausgeschleudert werden können. Dies kann ggf. auch von der Bedienperson unbemerkt geschehen. Auf dem Boden, insbesondere auf hochflorigem Teppichboden befindliche Nadeln, bilden jedoch Gefahrenquellen, insbesondere wenn Personen in den Räumlichkeiten barfuß laufen oder wenn kleine Kinder dort auf dem Boden krabbeln oder spielen. Es ist daher für eine Bedienperson schwer einzuschätzen, wie stark der Behälter bewegt werden muss, um die Nadeln einerseits zugänglich zu machen, andererseits ein Herausfallen der Nadeln jedoch zu verhindern.The Community Design 732 276-0001 shows a cylindrical container for needles. In this, a magnetic element is arranged vertically displaceable in order to bring the needles into the interior of the container or to allow it to protrude with its handle end. However, the magnetic element must be manually moved in the container. Thus, the lid of the container is removed and held the container with its opening down to then move by a shaking of the user's hand, the magnetic element in the container and make the needles accessible to the operator. The disadvantage of this, however, is that if too strong shaking the needles from the container can be thrown out. This may possibly also happen unnoticed by the operator. However, needles on the floor, especially on deep-pile carpeting, are sources of danger, especially when people walk barefoot in the premises or when little children are crawling or playing on the floor. It is therefore difficult for an operator to estimate how much the container has to be moved in order to make the needles accessible on the one hand, but on the other hand to prevent the needles from falling out.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei welcher die Kleinteile von einer Bedienperson einfach entnommen und wieder zurückgebracht werden können, insbesondere auch unter Verwendung nur einer Hand und welche handlich und kompakt ausführbar ist, wobei auch eine größere Anzahl von Nadeln einfach und sicher aufbewahrt werden kann. Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, denen folgende besondere Bedeutung zukommt.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a device of the type mentioned, in which the small parts can be easily removed and returned by an operator, especially using only one hand and which is handy and compact executable, with a larger Number of needles can be easily and safely stored. This object is solved by the characterizing features of claim 1, which has the following special significance.

Der Körper der Vorrichtung weist einen Betätigungsteil auf, durch welchen das Magnetelement in dem Hohlraum bewegbar ist. Durch diese Bewegung kann das Magnetelement in eine Geschlossen- und in eine Offenstellung überführt werden. In der Geschlossenstellung sind die Kleinteile mit dem überwiegenden Teil ihres Volumens in dem Hohlraum des Körpers aufgenommen. Bei der Offenstellung hingegen ragen die Kleinteile größtenteils, zumindest jedoch mit ihrem Griffende, aus dem lichten Umfang des Körpers heraus, so dass ein Benutzer diese entnehmen kann. Als Griffende dient hierbei beispielsweise bei Nadeln oder Nägeln der Kopf bzw. die Öse, an welche das entsprechende Kleinteil weniger scharf bzw. spitz ausgebildet ist, so dass eine Bedienperson das Kleinteil ohne Verletzungsgefahr mit der Hand greifen kann.The body of the device has an actuating part, by means of which the magnetic element is movable in the cavity. By this movement, the magnetic element can be converted into a closed and an open position. In the closed position, the small parts are taken up with the predominant part of their volume in the cavity of the body. In the open position, however, the small parts protrude mostly, but at least with their grip end, out of the clear circumference of the body so that a user can remove them. As a handle end is used here, for example, in needles or nails of the head or eyelet to which the corresponding hardware is less sharp or pointed, so that an operator can grab the small part without risk of injury with his hand.

Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn der Hohlraum in etwa zylinderförmig ausgestaltet ist. Dies ermöglicht die besonders platzsparende Unterbringung der Kleinteile. So können beispielsweise größere Mengen an Näh-, Steck- oder Haarnadeln bzw. Nägeln platzsparend aufbewahrt werden. Die Beschaffenheit der Außenkonturen bzw. des Außenumfangs des Körpers ist dabei von den Ausmaßen des Hohlraums relativ unabhängig, so dass jede beliebige ästhetisch ansprechende oder auch aus praktischen Gesichtspunkten vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung gewählt werden kann.It is advantageous if the cavity is designed approximately cylindrical. This allows the particularly space-saving storage of small parts. So can For example, larger amounts of sewing, plug or hairpins or nails are stored to save space. The nature of the outer contours or the outer circumference of the body is relatively independent of the dimensions of the cavity, so that any desired aesthetically pleasing or advantageous embodiment can be selected.

Die Vorrichtung ist nicht nur in ihrer äußeren Gestaltung sehr unterschiedlich ausführbar. Auch sind die unterschiedlichsten Materialien für die Vorrichtung wählbar. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich hierbei Kunststoff erwiesen. Die Vorrichtung ist hierdurch einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar. Außerdem ist die Vorrichtung leicht und kann somit auch problemlos auf Reisen mitgeführt werden.The device is not only very different executable in their external design. Also, the most diverse materials for the device can be selected. Plastic has proved to be particularly advantageous here. The device is thereby easy and inexpensive to produce. In addition, the device is lightweight and can therefore be easily carried on trips.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist zusätzlich den Deckel vorgesehen, welcher zumindest die Öffnung im Körper, durch welche der Hohlraum zugänglich ist, verdecken kann. Dieser Deckel kann beispielsweise nach Art eines Stopfens oder nach Art einer Kappe ausgebildet sein. Besonders wichtig ist es hierbei, dass die Öffnung insbesondere dann vom Deckel verschließbar ist, wenn sich das Magnetelement in seiner Geschlossenstellung befindet und somit die Kleinteile größtenteils im Hohlraum aufgenommen sind. Hierdurch ist eine sichere Lagerung der Kleinteile gegeben und diese können auch nicht unbeabsichtigt herausfallen. Der Deckel kann auch so ausgebildet sein, dass er mit dem Körper oder dem Betätigungsteil verbunden oder verbindbar ist, selbst wenn er nicht die Öffnung überdeckt, damit der Deckel nicht verloren gehen kann.In a preferred embodiment, the lid is additionally provided, which can cover at least the opening in the body through which the cavity is accessible. This lid may be formed, for example, in the manner of a plug or in the manner of a cap. It is particularly important in this case that the opening in particular can be closed by the lid when the magnetic element is in its closed position and thus the small parts are largely taken up in the cavity. As a result, a safe storage of small parts is given and these can not fall out unintentionally. The lid may also be configured to be connected or connectable to the body or actuator, even if it does not cover the opening, so that the lid can not be lost.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform bilden die in der Vorrichtung aufnehmbaren Kleinteile ein Set. Hier ist es beispielsweise möglich, unterschiedlichste Kleinteile zusammenzufassen, wie Nadeln, Garnspulen, einen Einfädler und eine Schere. Somit lassen sich praktische und handliche Nähsets, welche auch unterwegs einsetzbar sind, generieren. Selbstverständlich kann die ganze Vorrichtung auch größer ausgestaltet sein, um größere Nadeln, wie beispielsweise Strick- oder Häkelnadeln, aufzubewahren. Generell lassen sich so Sets für die verschiedensten Kleinteile, insbesondere für den Textilbereich, generieren.In a further preferred embodiment, the small parts which can be accommodated in the device form a set. Here it is possible, for example, to combine a variety of small parts, such as needles, bobbins, a threader and scissors. Thus, practical and handy sewing sets, which can be used on the go, can be generated. Of course, the entire device can also be made larger to store larger needles, such as knitting or crocheting needles. Generally, that's the way to go Generate sets for a variety of small parts, especially for the textile sector.

Als Magnetelement 30 ist ein zylinderförmiger Permanentmagnet vorgesehen, der nach Art eines Schlittens funktioniert. Dieses Magnetelement 30 ist im eingebauten Zustand im aus dem Inneren der Innenhülse 15 gebildeten Hohlraum 11 angeordnet. Selbstverständlich kann es sich bei dem Magnetelement 30 auch um ein Element handeln, was nur teilweise aus magnetischem Material besteht. Die Innenhülse 15 ist mit dem bereits in Fig. 1 gezeigten Fuß 41, der als Betätigungsteil 40 wirkt, einteilig ausbildet. Somit ist der Fuß 41 drehfest an der Innenhülse 15 angeordnet. Fig. 2 shows the device Fig. 1 in exploded view. The body 10 is in this case formed of two concentrically arranged sleeves, namely the inner sleeve 15 and the outer sleeve 20. As a magnetic element 30, a cylindrical permanent magnet is provided which functions in the manner of a carriage. This magnet element 30 is arranged in the installed state in the cavity 11 formed from the interior of the inner sleeve 15. Of course, the magnetic element 30 may also be an element, which only partially consists of magnetic material. The inner sleeve 15 is with the already in Fig. 1 shown foot 41, which acts as an actuating part 40, integrally formed. Thus, the foot 41 is rotatably mounted on the inner sleeve 15.

Das Magnetelement 30 ist in der in Fig. 3 gezeigten Vorrichtung in seiner Offenstellung 32. Der Deckel 51 wurde hierzu entfernt. Führt man nun mit dem Fuß 41 eine Drehbewegung 42 aus, so wird das Magnetelement 30 im Hohlraum 11 des Körpers 10 nach oben bzw. unten 35 geführt. Die Kleinteile 50, bei denen es sich hier um Nähnadeln handelt, ragen mit ihrem Griffende 53, also dem Bereich, an dem die Öse der Nähnadeln angeordnet ist, aus dem lichten Umfang 14 des Körpers 10 heraus. Hierbei liegen sie im Bereich der Öffnung 13 am oberen Ende 18 der Innenhülse 15 an und fächern 52 dabei auf, so dass sie von einer Bedienperson einfacher zu entnehmen sind. Die Bedienperson kann so direkt die passende Nadeln auswählen und entnehmen und dies auch, wenn sie nur eine Hand dafür frei hat, was insbesondere beim Abstecken von Textilien oder beim Frisieren häufiger vorkommen kann.The magnetic element 30 is in the in Fig. 3 shown device in its open position 32. The lid 51 has been removed for this purpose. If one then carries out a rotary movement 42 with the foot 41, then the magnetic element 30 is guided upwards or downwards in the cavity 11 of the body 10. The small parts 50, which are sewing needles here, protrude out of the clear periphery 14 of the body 10 with their grip end 53, that is to say the region on which the eyelet of the sewing needles is arranged. In this case they are in the region of the opening 13 at the upper end 18 of the inner sleeve 15 and fan 52 while, so that they are easier to remove by an operator. The operator can thus directly select and remove the appropriate needles and this, even if they only one hand free, which can occur more often especially when staking textiles or hairdressing.

In einer besonderen Ausführungsform ist der Hohlraum 11 im Bereich der Öffnung 13 trichterförmig ausgestaltet. Besteht der Körper 10 aus Innenhülse 15 und Außenhülse 20, so kann man dies vorsehen, indem man die Innenseite der Innenhülse 15 im Bereich ihres oberen Endes 18 abschrägt. In dem Fall können die Kleinteile 50 noch einfacher auffächern 52, da sie, wenn sich das Magnetelement 30 in Offenstellung 32 befindet, an diesem trichterförmigen Bereich anliegen.In a particular embodiment, the cavity 11 is configured funnel-shaped in the region of the opening 13. If the body 10 consists of inner sleeve 15 and outer sleeve 20, then this can be provided by chamfering the inner side of the inner sleeve 15 in the region of its upper end 18. In that case, the small parts 50 can fan out even more easily, since, when the magnetic element 30 is in the open position 32, they rest against this funnel-shaped area.

Die Fig. 4 und 5 zeigen die Innenhülse 15 mit dem drehfest daran angeordneten Fuß 41. Die Innenhülse 15 weist dabei zwei Durchbrüche 17 auf, welche linear und achsparallel zur Mittelachse der Innenhülse 15 verlaufen. Es kann selbstverständlich auch eine andere Anzahl Durchbrüche 17 vorgesehen sein. Am oberen Ende 18 der Innenhülse 15 erkennt man die Öffnung 13, durch welche der Hohlraum 11 zugänglich ist. Ebenfalls am oberen Ende 18 der Innenhülse 15 ist an der Außenseite 16 der Vorsprung 19 vorgesehen. Die Wirkungsweise dieses Vorsprungs 19 wird im Folgenden nähert erklärt werden.The 4 and 5 The inner sleeve 15 in this case has two openings 17 which extend linearly and axially parallel to the central axis of the inner sleeve 15. Of course, a different number of openings 17 may be provided. At the upper end 18 of the inner sleeve 15 can be seen the opening 13, through which the cavity 11 is accessible. Also at the upper end 18 of the inner sleeve 15, the projection 19 is provided on the outer side 16. The operation of this projection 19 will be explained in more detail below.

Aus den Fig. 6 und 7 ist die Außenhülse 20 ersichtlich. Diese weist an ihrem oberen Ende 24 im Bereich ihrer Innenseite 21 eine Ausnehmung 25 auf. Ist der Körper 10 zusammengebaut, so stehen die Ausnehmung 25 der Außenhülse 20 und der Vorsprung 19 der Innenhülse 15 miteinander in Wirkverbindung. Hierdurch sind Innen- 15 und Außenhülse 20 aneinander drehbar gelagert. Eine translatorische Bewegung der beiden Hülsen 15, 20 zueinander ist jedoch nicht möglich.From the 6 and 7 the outer sleeve 20 can be seen. This has at its upper end 24 in the region of its inner side 21 has a recess 25. If the body 10 is assembled, then the recess 25 of the outer sleeve 20 and the projection 19 of the inner sleeve 15 are in operative connection with each other. As a result, inner 15 and outer sleeve 20 are rotatably mounted to each other. A translational movement of the two sleeves 15, 20 to each other is not possible.

An ihrer Innenseite 21 weist die Außenhülse 20 zwei spiralförmige Führungskanäle 22 auf, an welchen jeweils eine Steuerkante 23 angeordnet ist. Diese Steuerkante 23 wird im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel von der Kante des jeweiligen Führungskanals 22 gebildet. Die Führungskanäle 22 sind nur auf der Innenseite 21 der Außenhülse 20 vorgesehen, durchbrechen aber die Wandung der Außenhülse 20 nicht. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, eine andere Anzahl von Führungskanälen 22 vorzusehen bzw. diese auch die Wandung durchbrechen zu lassen.On its inner side 21, the outer sleeve 20 has two spiral-shaped guide channels 22, on each of which a control edge 23 is arranged. This control edge 23 is formed in the present embodiment of the edge of the respective guide channel 22. The guide channels 22 are only on provided the inner side 21 of the outer sleeve 20, but do not break through the wall of the outer sleeve 20. Of course, it is also possible to provide a different number of guide channels 22 or to let them break through the wall.

Das Magnetelement 30 ist nunmehr in den Fig. 8 und 9 dargestellt. Im Bereich seines Außenumfangs 33 weist das Magnetelement 30 hier zwei Nasen 34 auf. Das Magnetelement 30 selbst ist als flacher Zylinder ausgebildet.The magnetic element 30 is now in the 8 and 9 shown. In the region of its outer circumference 33, the magnetic element 30 here has two lugs 34. The magnetic element 30 itself is formed as a flat cylinder.

Im zusammengebauten Zustand durchdringen die Nasen 34 des Magnetelements 30 die Durchbrüche 15 der Innenhülse 15 und greifen in die Führungskanäle 22 der Außenhülse 20 ein. Es ist vorteilhaft gleich viele Durchbrüche 15, Führungskanäle 22 und Nasen 34 vorzusehen.In the assembled state, the lugs 34 of the magnetic element 30 penetrate the openings 15 of the inner sleeve 15 and engage in the guide channels 22 of the outer sleeve 20. It is advantageous to provide the same number of openings 15, guide channels 22 and lugs 34.

Bei einer Drehung 42 des Fußes 41 gleiten die Nasen 34 entlang der Steuerkanten 23 an den Führungskanälen 22, wodurch sich das Magnetelement 30 im Hohlraum 11 nach oben bzw. unten bewegt 35. Selbstverständlich ist auch eine kinematische Umkehr dieser Teile, insbesondere der Führungskanäle 22 und der Durchbrüche 17, möglich.Upon rotation 42 of the foot 41, the lugs 34 slide along the control edges 23 on the guide channels 22, whereby the magnetic element 30 in the cavity 11 moves up or down 35. Of course, a kinematic reversal of these parts, in particular the guide channels 22 and the breakthroughs 17, possible.

Fig. 10 schließlich zeigt den Deckel 51, der hier in Form einer Kappe ausgebildet ist. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, den Deckel 51 mit dem Körper 10 bzw. dem Betätigungsteil 40 verrastbar zu machen, um ein einfaches Öffnen und Schließen des Hohlraumes 11 zu ermöglichen. Selbstverständlich sind auch die verschiedensten anderen Arten von lösbaren Verbindungen denkbar, wie Schraubverbindung, Steckverbindung oder Ähnliches. Fig. 10 Finally, shows the lid 51, which is formed here in the form of a cap. It is particularly advantageous to make the cover 51 latchable with the body 10 or the actuating part 40, in order to allow a simple opening and closing of the cavity 11. Of course, a variety of other types of releasable connections are conceivable, such as screw, connector or the like.

Abschließend sei noch darauf hingewiesen, dass die hier dargestellten Ausführungsformen lediglich beispielhafte Verwirklichungen der Erfindung sind. Diese ist nicht darauf beschränkt. Es sind vielmehr noch weitere Abwandlungen und Abänderungen möglich. So kann der Betätigungsteil auch beispielsweise in Form eines Schiebers ausgestaltet sein. Der Deckel kann auch gleichzeitig als Betätigungsteil fungieren, so dass beim Öffnen des Deckels das Magnetelement bewegt wird. Das Gleiche gilt für ein Schließen des Deckels. Der Betätigungsteil kann außerdem besondere haptische Eigenschaften aufweisen, um eine einfache Betätigung der Vorrichtung zu ermöglichen. Auch die Form des Körpers, des Deckels und des Fußes sind beliebig variierbar.Finally, it should be pointed out that the embodiments shown here are merely exemplary realizations of the invention. This is not limited to this. On the contrary, further modifications and alterations are possible. Thus, the operating part also, for example, in Shape of a slider be configured. The lid can also act as an actuating part at the same time, so that when the lid is opened, the magnetic element is moved. The same applies to closing the lid. The actuating member may also have special tactile properties to allow easy operation of the device. The shape of the body, the lid and the foot can be varied as desired.
