Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for storing contents, and more particularly to a slidable container with a child lock intended to prevent accidents caused e.g. by child's mischief.
  • Slidable containers have been used to store contents such as solid medicine, capsules, etc.
  • a slidable container includes a lower container for storing contents, and a lid for closing the lower container and mounted slidably on the lower container.
  • the present invention has been made in view of the above situation. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a slidable container with a child lock, which has a simple construction and is easy to handle, and yet can securely prevent accidents caused e.g. by child's mischief.
  • the present invention provides a slidable container with a child lock, comprising: a rectangular open-top lower container including a bottom plate, a front plate, a rear plate and a pair of side plates; and a lid for sealing the lower container and mounted on the lower container slidably in a direction from the rear plate toward the front plate of the lower container, said lid including a top plate, a rear plate and a pair of side plates, wherein each side plate of the lower container has, on its front side, an inner plate portion, and the lower container has a pair of working plates each extending from the front plate of the lower container and lying outside and parallel to the inner plate portion, wherein an engaging piece is provided through an engaging step portion at the rear end of each working plate, wherein when the lower container is sealed with the lid, each side plate of the lid overlaps the corresponding side plate and the corresponding engaging piece of the lower container, and the front end of each side plate of the lid is in contact with the engaging step portion of the lower container, and wherein an engaging portion is provided in each engaging
  • each engaging piece of the lower container is comprised of an outwardly-projecting projection
  • the locking portion of the side plate of the lid is comprised of a groove configured to receive the projection
  • an inwardly-projecting first top-plate projection is provided on the back surface of the top plate of the lid and, when sliding the lid on the lower container in the opening direction from the closing position, the first top-plate projection comes into contact with the rear plate of the lower container, which produces a resistance to the sliding movement of the lid.
  • an inwardly-projecting second top-plate projection is provided on the back surface of the top plate of the lid and, when sliding the lid on the lower container in the opening direction from the closing position, the second top-plate projection comes into contact with the rear plate of the lower container, defining the degree of opening of the lid.
  • the slidable container with a child lock according to the present invention has a simple construction and is easy to handle, and yet can securely prevent accidents caused e.g. by child's mischief.
  • FIGS. 1 through 9 show a slidable container with a child lock according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • the slidable container 1 with a child lock comprises: a rectangular open-top lower container 2 including a bottom plate 3, a front plate 4, a rear plate 5 and a pair of side plates 6, 6; and a lid 20 for closing or sealing the lower container 2 and mounted on the lower container 2 slidably in a direction from the rear plate 5 toward the front plate 4 of the lower container 2.
  • the lid 20 includes a top plate 21 that covers the opening of the lower container 2, a rear plate 22 and a pair of side plates 23, 23.
  • the front side of the lid 20 is open; the lid 20 is mounted on the lower container 2 by moving the front-side opening from the rear plate 5 toward the front plate 4 of the lower container 2.
  • the lower container 2 and the lid 20 of the slidable container 1, having such a construction, are both made of a synthetic resin such as ABS, PP, PE, PS or PC, and can be produced by injection molding.
  • Examples of contents T to be stored in the slidable container 1 may include solid medicine and tobacco products such as capsule cigarettes, smokeless cigarettes, an oral tobacco product and cigarillos.
  • the rectangular lower container 2 includes the bottom plate 3, the front plate 4, the rear plate 5 and the pair of side plates 6, 6.
  • Each side plate 6 has, on its front plate 4 side, an inner plate portion 7 through (lying next to) a step portion 16.
  • An inner engaging piece 10 is provided through (lying next to) an engaging step portion 9 at the rear end (rear plate 5-side end) of each working plate 8.
  • a projection (engaging portion) 11, projecting outward, is provided on the outer surface of the engaging piece 10. The projection 11 is to be received in and engaged with the below-described groove portion (locking portion) 26 provided in the inner surface of the side plate 23 of the lid 20.
  • each side plate 23 of the lid 20 overlaps the corresponding side plate 6 and the corresponding engaging piece 10 of the lower container 2.
  • the front end 23a of each side plate 23 of the lid 20 comes into contact with the engaging step portion 9 of the working plate 8 of the lower container 2, whereby the lid 20 is positioned with respect to the lower container 2 and the lower container 2 is completely closed (sealed) with the lid 20.
  • the lower container 2 has a peripheral projection 13 projecting outward from the lower ends of the pair of side plates 6, 6 and the lower end of the rear plate 5.
  • the peripheral projection 13 extends peripherally along the pair of side plates 6, 6 and the rear plate 5, and lies in the same plane as the bottom plate 3.
  • a guide projection 25, which is to be fit into the guide groove of each side plate 6 of the lower container 2 extends linearly and horizontally on the inner surface of each side plate 23 of the lid 20.
  • the guide projections 25 of the lid 20 are guided along the guide groove portions 15 of the lower container 2.
  • a first top-plate projection 28 and a second top-plate projection 29, both projecting inward, are provided on the back surface of the top plate 21 of the lid 20.
  • the first top-plate projection 28 of the lid 20 is provided near the rear plate 22, and the second top-plate projection 29 is provided near the center of the back surface of the top plate 21.
  • the first top-plate projection 28 comes into contact with the rear plate 5 of the lower container 2, which produces a resistance to the sliding movement of the lid 20 in the opening direction. Therefore, even after the engagement between the projections 11 of the lower container 2 and the groove portions 26 of the lid 20 is released, the lid 20 does not slide easily on the lower container 2 in the opening direction upon the contact of the first top-plate projection 28 with the rear plate 5.
  • the second top-plate projection 29 comes into contact with the rear plate 5 of the lower container 2, thereby inhibiting the movement of the lid 20 and defining the degree of opening of the lid 20 with respect to the lower container 2.
  • the slidable container 1 also has non-slip portions 8a on the outer surface of each working plate 8 of the lower container 2 so that a finger(s) will not slip upon the opening/closing operation.
  • the lid 20 is mounted on the lower container 2 in which contents T are housed.
  • the lid 20 can be mounted by sliding the lid 20 on the lower container 2 in a direction from the rear plate 5 toward the front plate 4.
  • the lower container 2 can be closed (sealed) with the lid 20.
  • the side plates 23, 23 of the lid 20 overlap the pair of side plates 6, 6 and the pair of engaging piece 10, 10 of the lower container 2.
  • the front ends 23a, 23a of the side plates 23, 23 of the lid 20 come into contact with the engaging step portions 9 of the lower container 2, whereby the lid 20 is positioned in the closed position.
  • the projections 11, 11 provided in the engaging pieces 10, 10 of the lower container 2 engage the groove portions 26, 26 provided in the side plates 23, 23 of the lid 20. This prevents the lid 20 from moving in the opening direction.
  • the pair of working plates 8 of the lower container 2 is first pressed inward to bend the working plates 8 and the pair of engaging pieces 10 inward, thereby disengaging the projections 11, provided on the outer surfaces of the engaging pieces 10, from the groove portions 26 provided in the inner surfaces of the side plates 23 of the lid 20.
  • the lid 20 is then slid on the lower plate 2 in the opening direction (the direction from the front plate 4 toward the rear plate 5 of the lower plate 2).
  • the first top-plate projection 28 comes into contact with the rear plate 5 of the lower container 2, which produces a resistance to the sliding movement of the lid 20. This can prevent the lid 20 from easily sliding on the lower container 2 in the opening direction after the engagement between the projections 11 of the lower container 2 and the groove portions 26 of the lid 20 is released.
  • the lid 20 is further slid in the opening direction, whereupon the first top-plate projection 28 of the lid 20 moves across the upper end of the rear plate 5 of the lower container 2, and the lid 20 further slides in the opening direction.
  • the second top-plate projection 29 of the lid 20 then comes into contact with the upper end of the rear plate 5 of the lower container 2, whereby the movement of the lid 20 in the opening direction is inhibited.
  • the degree of opening of the lid 20 with respect to the lower container 2 is thus defined.
  • a child can be prevented from accidentally taking the contents T, such as solid medicine or capsules, out of the lower container 2.
  • Each of the working plates 8, 8 of the lower container 2 is provided outside and parallel to the corresponding inner plate portion 7 of the side plate 6 and located at a predetermined distance from the plate section 7. Therefore, when pressing on the working plates 8, 8 inward, the working plates 8, 8 and the engaging pieces 10, 10 can be bent to a large extent. This makes it possible to easily and securely release the engagement between the projections 11 of the lower container 2 and the groove portions 26 of the lid 20.
