Description

  The present invention relates to a compact container having a mirror on its outer surface.

  As a compact container, for example, a container having a container for storing contents such as cosmetics and a lid attached with a mirror and rotatably connected to the container is known. This type of compact container usually has a mirror attached to the inner surface of the lid, but since the mirror cannot be used unless the lid is opened, a makeup check or the like cannot be performed easily. For example, there is a risk that cosmetics may scatter or applicators such as puffs and brushes may fall.

On the other hand, a compact container in which a mirror is attached to the outside of a lid as shown in Patent Document 1 below is also known.
This compact container is attached to the container in which cosmetics are stored, a lid having a mirror attached to the outer surface, and the rear end side of the container, and rotatably connects the container and the lid. And a hinge part. The lid is slidable on the storage container toward the rear end side of the storage container in a closed state. A gap that allows the front end of the lid to enter is formed on the rear end side of the storage container.

  In this compact container, since the mirror is attached to the outer surface of the lid, the mirror can be used without opening the lid. When performing makeup, after sliding the lid toward the rear end of the container, the front end of the lid is rotated by rotating around the hinge so as to lift the rear end of the lid. The part can enter the gap. Accordingly, the lid can be raised with the mirror facing forward, and the cosmetic can be used while using the mirror.

Japanese Patent No. 5420446

  However, in the above-described conventional compact container, when using cosmetics, it is necessary to slide the lid on the storage container. However, due to catching on the storage container and contents, frictional resistance between the storage container and the like. There was a possibility that the slide could not be moved smoothly, and there was room for improvement in the operability of the lid.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances. The purpose of the present invention is to facilitate the opening operation of the lid and to easily shift the mirror to the use state. It is easy to provide a compact container.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following means.
(1) A compact container according to the present invention is a container that contains contents and opens upward, and a lid that covers the opening of the container and is connected to the container so as to be opened and closed in the vertical direction. The lid body includes a mirror body having a mirror disposed on an outer surface thereof, and a frame body that surrounds the periphery of the mirror body and is rotatably connected to the storage container around a first rotation axis. And the mirror body is reversible between an outward posture in which the mirror faces the opposite side of the container and an inward posture in which the mirror faces the container side. It is connected to the body so as to be rotatable around the second rotation axis, and is housed inside the frame body in the outward posture and the inward posture.

In the compact container according to the present invention, since the mirror is disposed on the outer surface of the mirror body, the mirror can be used without opening the lid, and for example, a makeup check can be easily performed.
On the other hand, when using contents such as cosmetics, the entire lid body can be opened so as to be spaced apart from the container by rotating the frame body around the first rotation axis. Then, after the lid opening operation, the mirror body can be rotated around the second rotation axis to reverse the outward posture to the inward posture. Thereby, a mirror body can be turned over and a mirror can be turned to the opening side of a storage container. As a result, the contents can be used while using a mirror, for example, makeup can be performed.

  In this way, unlike the conventional one in which the lid is slid, the lid can be opened and the mirror can be used continuously by simply performing a series of rotation operations. Excellent and easy to use. In particular, since it is not necessary to slide the lid on the container, for example, the lid is caught on the contents, so that an applicator (content) such as a puff falls or the cosmetic (content) is air. It is difficult to cause phenomena such as scattering inside and sticking to the mirror. In addition, the mirror can be stored inside the frame regardless of whether the mirror is in the outward posture or the inward posture, so that the mirror can be prevented from jumping out of the frame and obstructing. In addition, the mirror can be properly oriented to the user side and is easy to use.

(2) The mirror body may be formed symmetrically with respect to the second rotation axis in a plan view of the mirror body.

  In this case, the mirror body can be provided with rotational symmetry, and the outer shape of the mirror body can be overlapped between the outward posture and the inward posture. Therefore, since the position of the mirror body relative to the frame body does not change between the outward posture and the inward posture, for example, the gap between the frame body and the mirror body changes according to the posture of the mirror body. Can be prevented. Therefore, it is easy to achieve uniformity in the appearance of portions other than the mirror, and the design can be improved.

(3) The mirror body may include a second engagement portion that detachably engages with a first engagement portion formed on the frame.

  In this case, it is possible to prevent the mirror body from unexpectedly rotating around the second rotation axis with respect to the frame body, so that the mirror body is stably maintained in the outward posture or the inward posture. be able to.

(4) One of the mirror body and the frame is formed with an elastic piece that can be elastically deformed, and the first engagement portion or the second engagement portion is formed on the elastic piece. May be.

  In this case, since the elastic piece can be elastically deformed when the mirror body is rotated about the second rotation axis, the engagement between the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion is smoothly released. be able to. Further, when the mirror body is in the outward posture or the inward posture, the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion can be more reliably engaged with each other by using the restoring deformation of the elastic piece. Unexpected rotation of the mirror can be effectively prevented, and a so-called click feeling can be given to the user, thereby improving operability.

  According to the present invention, the opening operation of the lid can be easily performed, and the mirror can be easily shifted to the use state, so that it is easy to use.

It is a top view which shows embodiment of the compact container which concerns on this invention. It is sectional drawing of the compact container in alignment with AA shown in FIG. It is sectional drawing of the compact container in alignment with BB shown in FIG. It is a disassembled perspective view of the cover body shown in FIG. It is the side view which looked at the axial hole shown in FIG. 4 from the arrow C direction. It is sectional drawing which shows the state opened from the state shown in FIG. 2 by rotating the whole cover body around the 1st rotating shaft. It is sectional drawing which shows the state which turned the mirror ahead by rotating a mirror around the 2nd rotating shaft with respect to a frame from the state shown in FIG.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of a compact container according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the compact container 1 of the present embodiment is a portable lidded container for storing contents such as cosmetics, and is a thin container formed in a square shape in plan view. Yes.
The compact container 1 includes a storage container 2 in which contents are stored, and a lid 3 that is connected to the storage container 2 so as to be openable and closable.

  In the present embodiment, in the thickness direction of the compact container 1, the lid 3 side is the upper side, and the storage container 2 side is the lower side. Further, in the direction orthogonal to the up-down direction, the engagement portion 40 side, which will be described later, is defined as the front, and the opposite side is defined as the rear. Furthermore, let the direction orthogonal to the up-down direction and the front-back direction be the left-right direction.

  The storage container 2 is formed in a thin bottomed cylindrical shape that opens upward, and is formed in a square shape in plan view in which the length along the left-right direction is equal to the length along the front-rear direction. ing. Specifically, the storage container 2 includes a bottom wall portion 10 and a peripheral wall portion 11 extending upward from the outer peripheral edge portion of the bottom wall portion 10.

The peripheral wall portion 11 is a pair of side walls that are located on both sides in the left-right direction and that connects the front wall portion 11a and the rear wall portion 11b. Part 11c.
A concave notch 15 that is recessed downward is formed in the middle portion in the left-right direction of the front wall portion 11a. In addition, a connecting recess 16 that penetrates the rear wall portion 11b up and down is formed in an intermediate portion in the left-right direction of the rear wall portion 11b.

  The inside of the storage container 2 defined by the bottom wall portion 10 and the peripheral wall portion 11 functions as a storage recess (storage space) R in which contents (not shown) are stored. Examples of the contents include an applicator such as a puff, and a metal dish that contains cosmetics such as a foundation. However, the present invention is not limited to this case, and the contents may be appropriately selected according to the use of the compact container 1 or the like.

In the illustrated example, the inside of the storage container 2 is a single storage recess R. For example, one or a plurality of partition walls are provided on the bottom wall 10, and the interior of the storage container 2 is formed into a plurality of storage recesses. A partitioning structure may be used. In this case, the inside of the storage container 2 may be partitioned in the front-rear direction or in the left-right direction. Thus, when a plurality of receiving recesses are formed, different contents can be stored separately in each receiving recess.
In the illustrated example, the entire bottom wall portion 10 is formed flat. However, a raised bottom portion that is recessed upward may be formed in a part of the bottom wall portion 10, for example.

  The lid 3 is connected to the mirror body 20 having the mirror 21 disposed on the outer surface thereof, and surrounds the periphery of the mirror body 20 so as to be rotatable about the first rotation axis M1 extending in the left-right direction with respect to the container 2. The frame 30 is connected to the storage container 2 so as to be openable and closable in the vertical direction. The lid 3 faces the bottom wall portion 10 in the up-down direction in the closed state, thereby covering the opening of the storage container 2 from above.

The mirror body 20 includes a mirror base 22 formed in a square shape in plan view, and the mirror 21 attached to the outer surface of the mirror base 22.
A stepped portion 25 that is recessed downward is formed in the central portion of the outer surface of the table 22. In the example shown in the drawing, the stepped portion 25 is recessed in a square shape in plan view over substantially the entire lens base 22. The mirror 21 is formed in a plate shape having a square shape in plan view, and is attached to the table 22 in a state of being housed in the stepped portion 25.

Examples of the method for attaching the mirror 21 include, but are not limited to, adhesion using an adhesive, double-sided tape, and the like, and fixation using other methods.
Further, in the illustrated example, the thickness of the mirror 21 is formed to be thinner than the depth of the stepped portion 25, and the upper surface of the mirror 21 is positioned lower than the outer surface of the table 22. Thereby, for example, even if the compact container 1 is dropped, the mirror 21 is difficult to break.
Furthermore, the upper surface of the mirror 21 may be positioned lower than the outer surface of the frame body 30. In this case, even if the upper surface of the mirror 21 is flush with the outer surface of the table 22, the compact container 1 is, for example, the same as when the upper surface of the mirror 21 is positioned lower than the outer surface of the table 22. Even if it falls, the mirror 21 is hard to break.

However, the mirror 21 is not limited to the case where it is formed in a plate shape. For example, the mirror may be arranged by a method of fixing a sheet-like or film-like mirror on the outer surface of the table 22 or a method of depositing a metal reflection film on the outer surface of the table 22. In any case, the mirror 21 may be disposed on the outer surface of the table 22.
In the case where the mirror is formed by a sheet-like or film-like mirror or vapor deposition, the step 25 is not necessarily provided.

  In addition, columnar shaft portions 26 </ b> A and 26 </ b> B projecting toward the front and the rear are formed on the front end portion 22 a located on the front side and the rear end portion 22 b located on the rear side of the table 22. These shaft portions 26A and 26B are respectively located in the middle portion in the left-right direction at the front end portion 22a and in the middle portion in the left-right direction at the rear end portion 22b, and are common so as to be aligned along the front-rear direction with the lens base 22 in between It is arranged on the axis line. The common axis is a second rotation axis M2 extending in the front-rear direction.

The shaft portions 26A and 26B described above are rotatably held around the second rotation axis M2 by shaft holes 32A and 32B described later formed in the frame body 30. Thereby, the mirror body 20 is connected to the frame body 30 so as to be rotatable around the second rotation axis M2.
Since the shaft portions 26A and 26B are located at the intermediate portion in the left-right direction at the front end portion 22a and the intermediate portion in the left-right direction at the rear end portion 22b, the mirror body 20 has the second rotation axis M2 in plan view. Are symmetrical with respect to the line.

The frame body 30 is formed in a square shape in a plan view that surrounds the entire body 20 from the front-rear direction and the left-right direction, and includes a front frame 30 a positioned at the front, a rear frame 30 b positioned at the rear, and both sides in the left-right direction. And a pair of side frames 30c connecting the front frame 30a and the rear frame 30b. Thereby, the mirror body 20 is in a state of being accommodated inside the frame body 30.
In the illustrated example, the thickness of the frame body 30 is equal to the thickness of the mirror body 20, and the mirror body 20 is also prevented from protruding upward and downward relative to the frame body 30.

The rear frame 30b of the frame body 30 is formed with a hinge block 31 that protrudes downward and is accommodated in the connecting recess 16 on the container 2 side.
The hinge block 31 extends along the left-right direction, and a lower end portion projects downward in a semicircular shape. The hinge block 31 is accommodated in the connecting recess 16 with the rear surface being flush with the rear surface of the rear frame 30b.

The hinge block 31 and the connection recessed part 16 are connected via the 1st rotating shaft part 34 extended along the left-right direction. The first rotation shaft portion 34 connects the inner end portion in the left-right direction of the connecting recess 16 and the outer end portion in the left-right direction of the hinge block 31, respectively. The central axis of the first rotation shaft portion 34 is the first rotation axis M1.
Thereby, the whole lid 3 is connected to the receiving container 2 via the hinge block 31 so as to be rotatable around the first rotation axis M1. Therefore, it is possible to move the entire lid 3 so as to be separated upward with respect to the container 2 (see FIG. 6).

Incidentally, shaft holes 32A and 32B are formed in the front frame 30a and the rear frame 30b of the frame body 30 to hold the shaft portions 26A and 26B formed in the mirror body 20 so as to be rotatable around the second rotation axis M2. ing.
The shaft hole 32A formed in the front frame 30a opens downward and rearward, and extends in the front-rear direction so as to have the same length as the shaft portion 26A. However, in the illustrated example, the shaft hole 32A is closed toward the front. Similarly, the shaft hole 32B formed in the rear frame 30b opens downward and forward, and extends in the front-rear direction so as to have the same length as the shaft portion 26B. However, in the illustrated example, the shaft hole 32B is closed toward the front.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 5, the inner surface of these shaft holes 32A, 32B has a lower end portion on the inner surface facing in the left-right direction toward the shaft holes 32A, 32B (left-right direction). Projecting ridges 33 extending in the front-rear direction are formed.

  Since the shaft holes 32A and 32B are thus formed, the shaft portions 26A and 26B can be fitted into the shaft holes 32A and 32B from below. Therefore, the frame body 30 and the mirror body 20 can be easily combined. Further, the shaft portions 26A and 26B fitted in the shaft holes 32A and 32B are undercut fitted by the convex strip portion 33 as shown in FIG. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the shaft portions 26A and 26B from being unexpectedly detached from the shaft holes 32A and 32B, and it is possible to reliably maintain the combined state of the frame body 30 and the mirror body 20. Has been.

As described above, since the shaft portions 26A and 26B are stably held in the shaft holes 32A and 32B, the mirror body 20 is rotated around the second rotation axis M2 so that the mirror 21 is separated from the container 2. It is possible to smoothly reverse between the outward posture P1 (see FIG. 1) facing the opposite side and the inward posture P2 (see FIG. 7) in which the mirror 21 faces the container 2 side. Yes.
Note that the mirror body 20 is accommodated inside the frame body 30 regardless of the outward posture P1 or the inward posture P2.

As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the mirror body 20 is in relation to the engagement convex portion (first engagement portion) 35 formed on the frame body 30 in the outward posture P1 and the inward posture P2. An engagement recess (second engagement portion) 28 that is detachably engaged is provided.
The engaging convex portions 35 are formed so as to protrude from the inner surfaces of the pair of side frames 30c in the frame body 30 toward the mirror body 20 (inward in the left-right direction). In the illustrated example, the engaging convex portion 35 is formed on the inner surface of the side frame 30c so as to continuously protrude over the entire length of the side frame 30c in the front-rear direction.
Note that the engaging convex portion 35 may be formed integrally with the frame body 30 or may be attached to the frame body 30 after being formed separately from the frame body 30. When the engaging projection 35 is formed separately from the frame body 30, it can be formed of a soft material such as an elastomer.

  The engaging recesses 28 are respectively formed in the side end 22c of the table 22 facing in the left-right direction so as to be recessed inward in the left-right direction. In the illustrated example, the engaging recess 28 is formed in the side end portion 22 c of the table 22 so as to be continuously recessed over the entire length of the table 22 in the front-rear direction.

  The pair of side frames 30c in the frame 30 is formed with slits 36 that open downward and extend in the front-rear direction. The slit 36 is closed toward the front and rear. Accordingly, a portion of the side frame 30c that is located on the inner side in the left-right direction than the slit 36 functions as an elastic piece 37 that can be elastically deformed in the left-right direction. The engaging projection 35 is formed on the elastic piece 37.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the compact container 1 of the present embodiment is provided with an engaging portion 40 that maintains the closed state of the lid 3 with respect to the storage container 2.
The engaging portion 40 is provided with a first hook 41 provided in the storage container 2, a second hook 42 provided on the lid 3 and engageable with the first hook 41, and the first hook 41 and the second hook 42. And an operation member 43 for releasing the engagement.

  The first hook 41 has a guide wall portion 45 disposed in a notch portion 15 formed in the front wall portion 11a of the container 2. The guide wall portion 45 has a front surface disposed behind the front surface of the container 2 and an inclined surface 45a that is inclined rearward as it goes upward. A first claw portion 45 b is projected from the upper end portion of the guide wall portion 45 toward the front. A guide hole 45c extending along the front-rear direction is formed at the lower end of the guide wall 45.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the second hook 42 has a vertical wall portion 46 that extends downward from the front frame 30 a of the frame body 30 and is disposed behind the front wall portion 11 a. Yes. The vertical wall portion 46 is disposed at a position overlapping the first hook 41 in plan view when the lid 3 is closed.
In addition, a vertical groove 46a that opens downward and communicates with the shaft hole 32A is formed at the central portion in the left-right direction of the vertical wall portion 46, whereby the vertical wall portion 46 is formed in a bifurcated shape.
Further, the lower end of the vertical wall portion 46 is inserted into the cutout portion 15 of the storage container 2 in the closed state of the lid 3 and can be engaged with the first claw portion 45b of the first hook 41. The part 46b protrudes toward the rear.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the operation member 43 is supported by the container 2 inside the notch 15. Specifically, the operation member 43 has a pressing wall portion 43a that is disposed at a position in the front-rear direction equivalent to the front frame 30a of the frame body 30, and protrudes rearward from the pressing wall portion 43a. A protrusion 43b located on the inclined surface 45a of the wall 45, and a base 43c formed at the lower end of the pressing wall 43a and inserted into the guide hole 45c of the first hook 41. Yes.

  The first claw portion 45b is formed in the operation member 43, and instead of the projection 43b and the inclined surface 45a of the guide wall portion 45, for example, a cylindrical elastic body is provided between the guide wall portion 45 and the operation member 43. You may make it the structure which interposes.

(Use of compact containers)
Next, the case where the compact container 1 comprised as mentioned above is used is demonstrated.
First, as shown in FIG. 1, the compact container 1 has a mirror 21 disposed on the outer surface of the mirror body 20, so that the mirror 21 can be used without opening the lid body 3. Easy to do.

  Next, when using contents such as cosmetics, first, the operating member 43 of the engaging portion 40 is operated to release the closed state of the lid 3. Specifically, the pressing wall portion 43a is pressed rearward, and the entire operation member 43 is slid rearward. Then, since the protrusion 43b of the operation member 43 moves rearward along the inclined surface 45a of the guide wall 45, the second claw 46b of the second hook 42 is pushed up from below, and the first hook 41 in the first hook 41 is moved upward. It is made to detach | leave from 1 nail | claw part 45b. Thereby, engagement with the 1st nail | claw part 45b and the 2nd nail | claw part 46b can be cancelled | released, and the cover body 3 will be in the state which can be opened.

As a result, the entire lid 3 can be rotated around the first rotation axis M1, and the lid 3 can be opened so as to be spaced apart from the container 2 as shown in FIG. it can. At this time, since the engaging convex portion 35 and the engaging concave portion 28 are engaged, the mirror body 20 does not rotate around the second rotation axis M2, and is integrated with the frame body 30 to form the first rotation shaft. Rotate around M1. Therefore, the opening operation of the lid 3 can be performed stably.
6 shows a state in which the mirror body 20 is rotated 90 degrees around the first rotation axis M1 and is standing vertically, the rotation angle of the mirror body 20 may be adjusted as appropriate.

  Next, after opening the lid 3, as shown in FIG. 7, the mirror 20 is rotated about the second rotation axis M2, thereby reversing the mirror 20 from the outward posture P1 to the inward posture P2. be able to. Thereby, the mirror body 20 can be turned over, and the mirror 21 can be turned to the front which is the opening side of the container 2. As a result, the contents can be used while the mirror 21 is used, and for example, makeup can be performed.

As described above, in the compact container 1 of the present embodiment, unlike the conventional case in which the lid 3 is slid and moved, the lid 3 is opened and the mirror 21 is moved to a use state only by performing a series of rotation operations. Because it can be operated continuously, it is excellent in operability and easy to use.
In particular, since it is not necessary to slide the lid 3 on the container 2, for example, the lid 3 is caught on the contents, and thereby an applicator (content) such as a puff falls or a cosmetic (content ) Are scattered in the air and attached to the mirror 21. Further, since the mirror body 20 can be accommodated inside the frame body 30 regardless of the posture of the mirror body 20 in the outward posture P1 or the inward posture P2, the mirror body 20 jumps out of the frame body 30. In addition to being able to prevent it from getting in the way, the direction of the mirror 21 can be appropriately directed to the user side, making it easy to use.

  Further, even when the mirror body 20 is in the outward posture P1 or the inward posture P2, the engagement convex portion 35 and the engagement concave portion 28 are engaged with each other. Thus, the mirror body 20 can be prevented from unexpectedly rotating around the second rotation axis M2. Therefore, the mirror body 20 can be stably maintained in the outward posture P1 and the inward posture P2.

  Furthermore, since the engagement convex part 35 is formed in the part which functions as the elastic piece 37, when rotating the mirror body 20 around the 2nd rotating shaft M2, the elastic piece 37 can be elastically deformed, The engagement between the projection 35 and the engagement recess 28 can be smoothly released. Further, when the mirror body 20 is set in the outward posture P1 or the inward posture P2, the engagement convex portion 35 and the engagement concave portion 28 can be more reliably engaged by using the restoring deformation of the elastic piece 37. Therefore, the unexpected rotation of the mirror body 20 can be effectively suppressed. In addition, since a so-called click feeling can be given to the user, operability can be improved.

  Furthermore, since the mirror body 20 is formed in line symmetry with respect to the second rotation axis M2 in a plan view, the mirror body 20 can have rotational symmetry, and the inward posture and the outward posture P1. The outer shape of the mirror body 20 can be overlapped at the time of P2. Therefore, since the position of the mirror body 20 with respect to the frame body 30 does not change between the outward posture P1 and the inward posture P2, for example, the gap between the frame body 30 and the mirror body 20 is the posture of the mirror body 20. It can be prevented from changing accordingly. Therefore, it is easy to achieve uniformity in the appearance of portions other than the mirror 21, and the design can be improved.

  The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the shape of the mirror 21 is a square shape in plan view. However, the shape is not limited to this, and may be, for example, a circular shape, an elliptical shape, or a polygonal shape.
Similarly, the shape of the table 22 is not limited to a square shape in plan view, and may be, for example, a circular shape, an elliptical shape, or a polygonal shape. In this case, the shape of the frame body 30 may be determined so as to correspond to the shape of the table 22.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the mirror body 20 was formed in line symmetry with respect to the 2nd rotating shaft M2 by planar view, it does not need to be formed in line symmetry. Even in this case, the same effect can be achieved. However, it is more preferable to form the mirror body 20 line-symmetrically with respect to the second rotation axis M2 in plan view, because the mirror body 20 can be provided with rotational symmetry.
Further, in the above embodiment, the second rotation axis M2 is formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction. However, the present invention is not limited to this case. For example, the second rotation axis M2 may be formed so as to extend in the left-right direction. You may form so that it may extend diagonally along the diagonal line which connects a diagonal part among four corners.

  Further, the mirror 21 may be formed on the outer surface of the table 22 by in-mold molding. In this case, various types of mirrors such as a concave mirror and a plane mirror can be formed easily and simultaneously with the molding of the table 22. Further, since the lid 3 can be easily reduced in thickness, the compact container 1 can be reduced in thickness and weight.

  Further, the engaging convex portion 35 is formed on the frame body 30 side, and the engaging concave portion 28 is formed on the mirror body 20 side. On the contrary, the engaging concave portion 28 is formed on the frame body 30 side, The engagement convex portion 35 may be formed on the body 20 side. In addition, as an example of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion, the combination of the engaging convex portion 35 and the engaging concave portion 28 has been described as an example. However, for example, the engaging convex portions 35 may be engaged with each other. good.
