Description

  The present invention relates to a storage container having a lid and suitable for storing articles such as tissue paper.

  2. Description of the Related Art A storage container that can store tissue paper in a stacked state and can take out the tissue paper one by one is well known. In addition, a storage container is known in which a lid is attached to a container portion having an opening for taking out the stored tissue paper so that the container can be reciprocally swung, and the opening can be opened and closed using the lid. .

  For example, an example of an openable and closable container described in Japanese Patent No. 5349915 (Patent Document 1) is a wet tissue storage container, and includes a main body having an outlet, a lid that opens and closes the outlet, and a direction in which the lid is opened. And an elastic member to be urged. The lid has a spring body on the base end side, and the main body has a slope portion with which the spring body abuts when the lid is opened. When the lid moves in the opening direction, the spring body slides on the slope portion, and the opening speed of the lid is suppressed. A cover extending substantially vertically from the top surface portion toward the main body is formed in the rear portion of the lid. The cover makes the gap between the lid and the main body small when the lid is closed, thereby improving the appearance on the back side of the container.

Japanese Patent No. 5349915

  In the openable / closable container, horizontal shaft portions formed on both side surface portions of the cover extending substantially vertically are inserted into holes formed in the main body, and the lid portion rotates around the shaft portion. Open and close the outlet. The cover formed on the lid is made so that the width of the gap (clearance) formed between the main body and the lid is not too large on the back side of the container. However, when the lid is rotated in the opening direction around the shaft, the lower end portion of the cover is also rotated around the shaft, and when the lid is closed, there is a gap between the lid and the main body on the back side of the container. Even if the relationship is small, when the lid is open, the gap may become large, and the appearance on the back side of the container may be impaired.

  An object of the present invention is to provide an improved storage container so that the appearance on the back side can be maintained in a good state regardless of whether the lid is closed or opened.

  The present invention includes a container part having a vertical direction, a horizontal direction, and a front-rear direction intersecting each other and having a take-out port for a stored article formed on a top surface part thereof. It is a storage container which has a cover part which opens and closes an exit.

  In the storage container according to the present invention, the lid when the outlet is in a closed state has a rear peripheral edge extending in the lateral direction at the rear portion of the container and covers the outlet. And an arm extending downward and rearward from the covering portion, the arm extending to the inside of the rear peripheral wall portion forming the rear portion of the container portion, and the inner side From the distal end of the arm extending to, a pivot shaft extends to each of both sides in the lateral direction, and the pivot shaft is located below the rear peripheral edge of the covering portion and is connected to the base end portion connected to the arm. The tip part which is an opposite end part has entered into the bearing part in the container part so that rotation is possible.

  In the storage container according to the present invention, there is a turning shaft at the tip of the arm extending downward and rearward from the covering portion in the lid portion, and the turning shaft is located below the rear peripheral edge portion of the covering portion. Even when the rear peripheral edge of the lid is close to the rear peripheral wall of the container so that the gap (clearance) between the container and the lid is small when the container is viewed from the rear, the lid When is opened, the rear peripheral edge portion is in a state of approaching the rear peripheral wall portion of the container portion while turning above the turning shaft. Therefore, even if the lid is opened, the gap between the lid and the container is not increased on the back side of the storage container, and the appearance of the container is not impaired.

  Taking a tissue paper storage container as an example of the storage container according to the present invention, the details of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition to the indispensable requirements of the present invention, the following embodiments include requirements that can be selectively adopted and requirements that can be appropriately combined.

  A storage container 10 shown in a perspective view in FIG. 1 is suitable for storing a later-described tissue paper 9 such as a wet tissue, and includes a container portion 11 and a lid portion 12. In the container portion 11, the top surface portion 14 and the peripheral wall portion 16 are integrally formed, and the bottom lid 13 can be attached to and detached from the peripheral wall portion 16 from below. Moreover, the postscript package 8 of the tissue paper 9 can be accommodated by removing the bottom lid 13. The peripheral wall portion 16 includes a front peripheral wall portion 16a, a pair of side peripheral wall portions 16b, and a rear peripheral wall portion 16c (see FIG. 1) described later. Double-headed arrows A, B, and C in the figure indicate the vertical direction, horizontal direction, and front-rear direction of the storage container 10.

  In FIG. 1, a gap (clearance) 101 formed between the container portion 11 and the lid portion 12 is shown by a partially enlarged view surrounded by an imaginary line 100. The container part 11 has an inner contour line 15a and an outer contour line 15b in the fitting recess 15 to be described later, and a part 15c sandwiched between both the contour lines 15a and 15b is a part outside the outer contour line 15b. It is formed to be lower. The lid 12 has a front peripheral edge 36a. A gap 101 is formed between the front peripheral edge 36a and the inner contour line 15a. The gap 101 has a substantially constant width F when the storage container 10 is viewed from above, and the storage container gives an impression that the lid 12 fits into the later-described fitting recess 15 of the container part 11. Can be given to 10 users. The width F of the gap 101 is preferably selected from the range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm.

  FIG. 2 is a rear view of the storage container 10. In FIG. 2, the rear peripheral wall portion 16 c of the container portion 11 and the rear portion 35 of the lid portion 12 are visible. In the rear peripheral wall portion 16c, the inner contour line 15a and the outer contour line 15b in the fitting recess 15 are visible. In the rear portion 35 of the lid portion 12, a rear peripheral edge 36b extending horizontally in the lateral direction B and a front peripheral edge 36a extending in an arc in the vertical direction A are visible. A part of a hinge portion 40 to be described later can be seen at the center portion in the lateral direction B of the lid portion 12. The lid portion 12 indicated by an imaginary line is when the lid portion 12 is in an open state, and the rear peripheral edge portion 36 b overlaps the rear peripheral wall portion 16 c of the container portion 11.

  In FIG. 2, a part surrounded by an imaginary line 200 is a partially enlarged view of the container part 11 and the lid part 12. A gap 101 is formed between the inner contour line 15a of the container part 11 and the rear peripheral edge part 36b and the front peripheral edge part 36a of the lid part 12.

  FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III in FIG. 1, and the package 8 and the tissue paper 9 that are housed in the storage container 10 are indicated by phantom lines. The line III-III is at a position that bisects the dimension of the bottom lid 13 of the storage container 10 in the front-rear direction C. The top surface portion 14 of the container portion 11 has a fitting recess 15 for fitting the lid portion 12 in the central portion in the lateral direction B. The fitting recess 15 is made of a flexible elastic material such as silicone rubber or thermoplastic elastomer, and a partition plate 17 whose required portion is easily elastically deformed, and an upper portion sandwiching the partition plate 17 from the vertical direction A 18 and a lower portion 19.

  The partition plate 17 is formed with an outlet 21 for taking out the tissue paper 9, and upright portions 22 extend upward on both sides in the lateral direction B. An appropriate shape such as a circular shape, an oval shape, or a star shape can be selected for the outlet 21. The outlet 21 in the illustrated example is circular. The upright portion 22 is formed in an annular shape so as to surround the outlet 21. The partition plate 17 also has a flat plate-like portion 23 having a uniform thickness between the outlet 21 and the upright portion 22.

  The upper portion 18 in the fitting recess 15 is separate from the lower portion 19 and can be formed of a material different from the material forming the lower portion 19, but forms the lower portion 19. It can be formed using the same material as the material, for example, a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin. The upper portion 18 can also be molded using a two-color molding technique, which is one of injection molding techniques, so as to be integrated with the partition plate 17. An upper opening 24 larger than the outlet 21 is formed in the upper portion 18. The upper portion 18 is also formed with a peripheral edge portion 27 that abuts the base end portion 26 of the standing portion 22 from the lateral direction B. The peripheral portions 27 are connected to each other on both sides of the upright portion 22 via a connecting portion 27 a that penetrates the upright portion 22. The connecting portion 27a is a portion used as a flow path of the molding material for forming the peripheral edge portion 27 on both sides of the upright portion 22 when performing the two-color molding, but the connecting portion in the fitting recess 15 27a acts so as to integrate the partition plate 17 and the upper portion 18 so as not to be separated. A plurality of connecting portions 27a can be provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the upright portions 22 (see FIG. 3).

  The lower portion 19 in the fitting recess 15 is a portion that can be injection-molded simultaneously with the peripheral wall portion 16 and the like of the container portion 11, and is harder than the material forming the partition plate 17, such as polypropylene or the like. It is formed of a thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polyethylene. The lower portion 19 and the lower surface 17b of the partition plate 17 are in close contact with each other around the outlet 21 by adhesion, welding, mechanical bonding, or the like. In a more preferable container part, at least the partition plate 17 and the lower part 19 are in close contact with each other so as to be in an airtight state on the entire circumference of the outlet 21. The lower portion 19 is also formed with a lower opening 25 larger than the take-out port 21 so that the upper opening 24, the take-out port 21 and the lower opening 25 can easily take out the tissue paper 9 one by one. It has been aligned. The upper opening 24, the outlet 21 and the lower opening 25 can be appropriately combined in size and shape so that the tissue paper 9 can be easily taken out. The fact that the tissue paper 9 can be easily taken out includes the meaning that it is easy to separate and take out the tissue paper 9 one by one.

  The lid portion 12 is formed of the same hard material as the upper portion 18 and / or the lower portion 19 in the fitting recess 15, for example, a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin, and can be opened and closed inside the fitting recess 15. doing. The lid portion 12 has an outer surface portion 28 that forms a part of the outer surface of the storage container 10 when it is closed, and an inner surface portion 29 that faces the outlet 21. A drooping portion 30 is formed on the inner surface portion 29 so as to extend straight toward the fitting recess 15 and abut against the inclined portion 31 of the top portion 32 of the upright portion 22. The hanging portion 30 is formed in an annular shape so as to surround the top portion 32. The inclined portion 31 in the top portion 32 is inclined so as to rise upward from the outside of the standing portion 22 toward the inside. The top portion 32 is also formed in the inclined portion 31 so that the thickness gradually decreases from the bottom to the top, and when the drooping portion 30 comes into contact, the top portion 32 is easily elastically deformed toward the inside in the radial direction. . Along with the elastic deformation, the height of the upright portion 22 in the vertical direction A may be slightly lowered. Thus, the upright part 22 and the hanging part 30 which are in contact with each other form a peripheral wall part 72 which integrally surrounds the outlet 21. Inside the peripheral wall portion 72, the inner surface portion 29 of the lid portion 12 forms a ceiling portion 73 that faces the outlet 21. Due to the peripheral wall portion 72 and the ceiling portion 73, an airtight space 74 is formed above the outlet 21, and drying of the tissue paper 9 in a wet state can be prevented. In such a storage container 10, the fitting recessed part 15 and the cover part 12 of the container part 11 form the cover part opening / closing structure.

  In this lid portion opening / closing structure, the lid portion 12 is supported by the container portion 11 so as to be pivotable clockwise and counterclockwise, and is detachably engaged with the fitting recess 15. Further, when the lid portion 12 is fitted into the fitting recess 15, the hanging portion 30 in the lid portion 12 and the standing portion 22 in the fitting recess 15 are in close contact with each other in the vertical direction A to form the peripheral wall portion 72. Either the hanging part 30 or the standing part 22, for example, the standing part 22 is formed of a flexible elastic material, and is elastically deformed in the radial direction of the peripheral wall part 72.

  In the present invention, when it is referred to as a hard material, a portion of the storage container 10 that does not deform when it comes into contact with the flexible elastic material forming any part of the storage container 10 is formed. It means that it is a material. Also, that a certain part is formed of a flexible elastic material means that the part is formed of a material that is elastically easily deformed when the part formed of a hard material comes into contact with it. doing.

  4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in FIG. 1, and the lid 12 in a state of turning clockwise as indicated by an arrow E is indicated by a virtual line. The IV-IV line is at a position that bisects the dimension in the lateral direction B of the bottom lid 13 of the storage container 10. On the right side of the figure, the lid 12 has a pivot shaft 36 (see FIGS. 6 and 7) formed on the lid 12 rotatably entering a bearing portion 37 (see FIG. 7) formed in the fitting recess 15. Thus, by reciprocally turning in the clockwise direction E and the counterclockwise direction, the take-out port 21 for taking out the tissue paper 9 can be opened and closed. The pivot shaft 36 and the bearing portion 37 form a hinge portion of the storage container 10. In the storage container 10, the spring member 40 is interposed in a stored state between the lower portion 19 of the fitting recess 15 and the lid portion 12, and the lid portion 12 is opened in the opening direction, that is, in the clockwise direction E. Energized. The illustrated spring member 40 is an elastic strip formed of synthetic rubber or natural rubber. The elastic strip is folded an appropriate number of times, and one end 41 in the length direction of the elastic strip. Is fixed to the lower portion 19 in the fitting recess 15 and the other end portion 42 is fixed to the lid portion 12, whereby the spring member 40 is in an energized state. The spring member 40 can be replaced with a conventional spring material such as a coil spring instead of the illustrated example.

  On the left side of FIG. 4, a latch 46 extends downward from the inner surface portion 29 of the lid portion 12 in the closed state. At the lower end portion of the latch 46, the engaging projection 47 extends toward the latch receiving member 51 that serves as a keeper for the latch 46. The fitting recess 15 of the container portion 11 is formed with a recess 49 which is a part of the fitting recess 15, and the latch receiving member 51 is housed and the latch 46 in the lid portion 12 when in the closed state. Is engaged with the latch receiving member 51. When the lid portion 12 is in a closed state, the top opening 49a of the concave portion 49 is concealed by the lid portion 12, and is not visible from the outside of the storage container 10, and affects the appearance of the storage container 10. There is no. The latch receiving member 51 for engaging the latch 46 does not come out upward from the recess 49 because the forward extending portion 52 of the upper portion 18 in the fitting recess 15 abuts from above. Further, in the latch receiving member 51, the small protrusions 53 formed at the upper end portion and the lower end portion contact the raised portions 54a and 54b formed at the recessed portion 49 and the extended portion 52 of the upper portion 18 from the front-rear direction C. By being in the obtained state, it does not swing in the front-rear direction C. Also in FIG. 4, the partition plate 17 is formed with a connecting portion 27 a extending through the upright portion 22.

  FIG. 5 is a view taken along the line VV in FIG. 4 and shows the front surface portion 51 a of the latch receiving member 51 housed in the recess 49. However, in the illustrated front part 51a, the front part 51a can be easily distinguished from other parts by entering a large number of dots therein. 5A to 5F correspond to a series of operations by the tissue paper user from when the lid 12 is closed to when it is opened, and the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 enters the latch receiving member 51. FIG. It shows the process from leaving to leaving. The storage container 10 in which the lid portion 12 opens and closes following this process is a kind of container having a so-called push lock / push open lock mechanism.

  FIG. 5A shows a state in which the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 starts to enter the latch receiving member 51 when the lid 12 is to be closed. In this state, a clearance 61 is formed between the latch receiving member 51 and both side portions of the concave portion 49 so that the latch receiving member 51 can slide in both sides in the lateral direction B in the concave portion 49. The latch receiving member 51 can linearly slide in the lateral direction B. The latch receiving member 51 also has a groove 62 formed in the front surface portion 51a. The groove portion 62 has an entry path 63 that can guide the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 that has entered from the entrance / exit 62a of the groove portion 62 downward when the lid portion 12 is closed, and the protrusion 47 toward the upper side from below. An exit path 64 that can be guided and exited from the entrance / exit 62a, and an engagement portion 67 that is between the entrance path 63 and the exit path 64 and is connected to the lowermost end portions 65 and 66 of both the paths 63 and 64. Have. The engaging portion 67 is located above the lowermost end portions 65 and 66 by a required dimension, and is latched together with the lid portion 12 by the action of the spring member 40 (see FIG. 4). The protrusions 47 of 46 can be engaged with each other in a manner in which they are pressed from below to above and can be made stationary.

  In FIG. 5B, when the lid portion 12 is further rotated downward, the latch 46 linearly advances downward. However, since the entrance path 63 is curved as shown in the figure, the protrusion 47 presses the side wall portion of the entrance path 63 and slides the latch receiving member 51 to the left in the drawing. While the latch 46 advances in this way, the lid portion 12 presses the standing portion 22 in the container portion 11 with the hanging portion 30 of the lid portion 12 while resisting the bias of the spring member 40, thereby pushing the standing portion 22. Elastically deform.

  In FIG. 5C, when the protrusion 47 reaches the lowermost end 65 of the entry path 63, the tissue paper user who wants to close the lid 12 feels that the latch 46 is dead, that is, the lid 12. Can give you the feeling of being completely closed. The protrusion 47 located at the lowermost end 65 is formed in front of the lowermost end 65 of the approach path 63 and passes through the stepped portion 68a that prevents the upward movement of the protrusion 47. There is no such thing as going up the approach path 63 and going up.

  Further, in FIG. 5C, when the hand is released from the closed lid portion 12, the lid portion 12 that is under the bias of the spring member 40 and on which the elastic restoring force of the upright portion 22 acts is opened. Turn in the direction, ie upwards. Then, the projecting portion 47 passes through another stepped portion 68b for preventing retrograde movement, and ascends toward the engaging portion 67 that is curved so as to protrude upward, as shown in FIG. It becomes the state of. The protrusion 47 at this time is engaged by being pressed against the engaging portion 67 from below and is in a stationary state. When the projection 47 is stationary, the lid 12 is closed against the bias of the spring member 40. In addition, since the hanging portion 30 of the lid portion 12 is in pressure contact with the top portion 32 of the standing portion 22 in the container portion 11, the standing portion 22 is elastically deformed, so that the lid portion 12 is elastically elastic to the standing portion 22. Closed against resilience.

  In FIG. 5 (e), the protrusion 47 is located at the lowermost end 66 in the exit path 64. When the projecting portion 47 is in the state of FIG. 5D, when the outer surface portion 28 of the lid portion 12 is pressed at the portion 70 (see FIGS. Guided in the direction of passing through the next stepped portion 68c that prevents the retrograde movement, it goes from the engaging portion 67 to the lowermost end portion 66 of the exit path 64. At the lowermost end 66, the lid 12 stops descending, and the tissue paper user can feel the dead end of the latch 46.

  FIG. 5 (f) shows a state in which the projection 47 is guided by the exit path 64, rises from the lowermost end 66, and tries to go out from the entrance / exit 62 a of the groove 62. In FIG. 5 (e), when the hand is released from the cover 12, the cover 12 under the biasing force of the spring member 40 and the restoring force of the standing part 22 that is elastically deformed is removed. It automatically begins to turn upward to open the outlet 21. As the lid 12 turns, the protrusion 47 is guided by the exit path 64 and reaches the entrance 62a.

  In the storage container 10 thus formed, when the lid portion 12 in the lid portion opening / closing structure is closed, the annular hanging portion 30 is formed in an annular standing shape formed in the fitting recess 15 of the lid portion opening / closing structure. The upright portion 22 is elastically deformed inward in the radial direction by being pressed against the portion 22. In other words, in FIG. 3, the hanging portion 30 is deformed in the lateral direction B so that the inner diameter of the top portion 32 of the standing portion 22 is small, and in FIG. 4, the standing portion 22 is deformed in the front-rear direction C. Yes. The hanging part 30 may elastically deform the standing part 22 so that the dimension in the vertical direction A becomes small in accordance with the deformation of the standing part 22 in this way. The hanging portion 30 when the lid portion 12 is opened has a dimension corresponding to the dimension in the vertical direction A when the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 descends from the engaging portion 67 to the lowermost end portion 66 of the exit path 64. Further, the upright portion 22 that is already in contact with the hanging portion 30 and elastically deforms is further elastically deformed. That is, the peripheral wall portion 72 formed by the upright portion 22 and the hanging portion 30 is in an elastically deformed state even when the protruding portion 47 is at the engaging portion 67 or at the lowermost end portions 65 and 66 respectively. . In the storage container 10 used in this manner, it is preferable that the standing portion 22 is formed of a flexible elastic material so that the elastic deformation amount of the peripheral wall portion 72 in the vertical direction A can be sufficiently increased. Specifically, the elastically deformable amount of the upright portion 22 in the peripheral wall portion 72, that is, the elastically deformable dimension is to keep the space 74 in an airtight state when the lid portion 12 is closed. The amount of elastic deformation required in the vertical direction A and the vertical direction required when the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 moves from the engaging portion 67 to the lowermost end 66 of the exit path 64 when the lid 12 is opened. It is preferable to make the standing part 22 to be larger than the sum of the elastic deformation amount in the direction A.

  6 and 7 are an enlarged view of the portion VI in FIG. 4 and a view taken along the line VV in FIG. In FIG. 6, the lid portion 12 includes a covering portion 12 a that covers the outlet 21 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) and an L-shaped arm 120 that extends from the covering portion 12 a. The arm 120 includes a hanging portion 121 that extends downward from the covering portion 12 a and a connecting portion 122 that extends from the lower end portion of the hanging portion 121 to the inside of the rear peripheral wall portion 16 c in the container portion 11. From the distal end portion of the connecting portion 122 extending in this manner, the pivot shaft 130 extends horizontally on both sides in the lateral direction B (see also FIG. 7). The turning shaft 130 is located below the rear peripheral edge 36b extending in the lateral direction B in the rear portion of the covering portion 12a. A gap 101 having a dimension F in the vertical direction is formed between the rear peripheral edge 36 b and the inner contour line 15 a of the fitting recess 15 in the container part 11.

  In FIG. 7, the pivot shaft 130 extending in the lateral direction B from each side of the connecting portion 122 of the arm 120 is formed in the container portion 11 and formed on the wall surface portion 123 facing the connecting portion 122. It is approaching in a rotatable manner. In the swivel shaft 130, the portion connected to the arm 120 is a base end portion, and the portion entering the bearing portion 124 is a distal end portion.

In the partially broken enlarged view surrounded by the phantom line 300 in FIG. 7, the dimension W ₀ is the dimension in the lateral direction B that is the width of the arm 120. The dimension W ₁ is a dimension on the front side between the wall surface parts 123 facing each other, and the dimension W ₂ is a dimension on the rear side between the wall surface parts 123. Each of the dimensions W ₀ , W ₁ , and W ₂ is adjusted so that the dimension W ₀ is smaller than the dimension W _{1 and} larger than the dimension W ₂ .

  In order to open the outlet 21 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) in FIG. 6, the closed lid 12 is turned clockwise as indicated by the arrow E (see FIGS. 4 and 7). The lid 12 turns around the turning shaft 130 and stops when the connecting part 122 of the arm 120 comes into contact with the inner contour line 15a of the container part 11 or its surrounding part from the front. The paper 9 (see FIG. 4) can be taken out. When the lid portion 12 is swung, the rear peripheral edge 36b of the covering portion 12a located above the swivel shaft 130 passes over the inner outline 15a of the container portion 11 separated by the gap 101 having the dimension F. It turns and comes behind the back peripheral wall part 16c (refer also FIG. 2). Therefore, even if the gap 101 has a small value of about 0.5 to 1.5 mm, the covering portion 12a does not come into contact with the container portion 11 when it turns. When the storage container 10 after the lid part 12 is swung is viewed from the rear, the rear peripheral wall part 16c in the container part 11 and the covering part 12a in the cover part 12 are connected with no gap in the vertical direction, An external appearance with a sense of unity can be created between the container portion 11 and the lid portion 12. When the color tone of the container part 11 and the cover part 12 is the same, since the unity feeling becomes strong especially, it is preferable. However, even if the container part 11 and the lid part 12 are of opposite colors, for example, the two-tone appearance created by the container part 11 and the lid part 12 is preferably not divided in the vertical direction A. become.

The lid portion 12 is urged by the spring member 40, but the wall surface portion 123 where the bearing portion 124 is formed in the container portion 11 has a dimension between them from the front to the rear of the container portion 11. as gradually decreases toward the, i.e. the dimension W ₂ is inclined so smaller than the dimension W _1. Since the dimension W _{0 of the} arm 120 is larger than the dimension W ₂ , when the lid portion 12 is opened, the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 are engaged so as to slide, and the urged lid portion 12 is The opening speed is suppressed and gradually becomes slower. For example, even if the urged lid portion 12 starts to open vigorously, the speed is reduced when the opening ends, and the container portion 11 is not vibrated.

  However, in the container 10, the engagement between the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 is not limited to the engagement in the illustrated example. For example, a protruding portion in the lateral direction B is formed on one of the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123, and a concave portion into which the protruding portion can be fitted is formed on the other, and the lid portion 120 finishes opening. Sometimes, the engagement between the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 may be realized by fitting the protrusion after the protrusion slides around the recess.
