When closing the lid 15, the flat plate portion 34 of the applicator lifting member 18 and / or the applicator placed on the upper surface of the flat plate portion 34 functions as a stopper that limits the rotation of the applicator lifting member.

  Therefore, according to the cosmetic compact case 10 of the present embodiment, when the rotating operation for opening the lid 15 is performed when the cosmetic compact case 10 is used, the applicator is lifted as the lid 15 rotates. Since the member 18 is rotated within a predetermined angle range and the flat plate portion 34 is inclined, the member 18 can be protruded from the bottom portion 17 of the applicator storage portion 13. The applicator accommodated in 13 is lifted, and its peripheral portion is moved upward from the opening edge on the upper surface of the applicator container 13 to facilitate the picking of the peripheral portion, so that the applicator can be smoothly removed from the container body 11. It becomes possible to take out.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made. For example, the portion of the applicator lifting member that protrudes from the bottom of the applicator accommodating portion is not necessarily flat and may be rod-shaped. In addition, the portion protruding from the bottom of the applicator accommodating portion does not necessarily have to be a substantially rectangular shape, and is not necessarily provided in the region of the corner portions on the cosmetic accommodating portion side and the hinge portion side. You may make it protrude the substantially whole bottom part of an applicator accommodation part upwards. Further, the flat plate portion of the applicator lifting member is preferably fitted into the notch opening 36 formed in the bottom portion 17 of the applicator accommodating portion 13, but may extend to the upper surface of the bottom portion 17.

  The locking part of the applicator lifting member does not necessarily need to be a linear convex rib formed on the circumferential surface of the pivoting part, and may be a dotted convex rib or the like. Further, a portion formed on the outer circumferential surface of the pivoting portion as a locking portion, where the distance from the shaft pin of the hinge portion is larger than the portions on both sides in the circumferential direction, for example, has a semi-elliptical cross-sectional shape. The locking portion of the lid that has been pivoted from the short axis side is smoothly locked by a frictional force or the like in the vicinity of the long axis in the vicinity of the long axis in the pivoting portion formed as described above At the same time, it is possible to smoothly get over the opposite minor axis.

  Furthermore, the locking part of the applicator lifting member does not necessarily need to be formed on the outer peripheral surface in the circumferential direction of the pivoting part. For example, a locking part is formed on the end face of the pivoting part in the direction perpendicular to the shaft pin, and for example, on the side surface of the gate-shaped notch part of the pivoting part of the lid disposed opposite to the locking part. The provided lid side latching part can also be latched so that it can get over. The locking part of the applicator lifting member and the locking part of the lid body do not necessarily have to be convex parts, and may be concave parts that are depressed.
