[Embodiment of device]

 The configuration of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, reference numeral 1 is a handbag, and the handbag 1 has a storage part 2 and a lid part 3 which are integrally formed, and hands 4, 4 are provided in a loop shape on both outer sides of the storage part 2. In addition, curved frames 5a and 5b that are opened and closed are fitted to both edges of the lid 3, and the lid 3 is opened and closed by engaging and disengaging the engaging pieces 6. It is supposed to do. Incidentally, 6a and 6a are spindles of the frames 5a and 5b.

A hand switch 7 that is turned on / off by a slide operation is attached to the inner pad 2a that forms the inside of the storage section 2 below the vicinity of the frame 5a, and is attached to the lower part of the hand switch 7. Is fitted with an illuminating lamp 8 consisting of a lamp bulb that illuminates the inside of the storage part 2, and a battery 9 is installed inside the bottom part 2b of the storage part 2. As shown in FIG. The illumination lamp 8 is turned on by turning on the hand switch 7.

Therefore, in the handbag 1 configured as described above, the handkerchief, small articles, etc. stored in the storage portion 2 can be opened and closed by opening and closing the lid portion 3 in the same manner as in the conventional case in the daytime or under the required illumination. Can be taken in and out. Then, when taking out small items in the handbag 1 at night or in a movie theater or the like, by operating the engaging pieces 6 and 6 to open the lid portion 3 and then turning on the hand switch 7, the illuminated lamp is turned on. Only the inside of the storage part 2 is illuminated by the means 8 so that desired small articles can be easily taken out. At this time, since the illumination effect of the illumination lamp 8 is limited to the inside of the storage unit 2, it does not cause any inconvenience even when another person is nearby.

FIG. 4 shows an addition of an intermediate switch 10 as shown in FIG. 3B in addition to the circuit configuration of the above-mentioned embodiment, and the intermediate switch 10 is provided for opening / closing the frames 5a, 5b. It is designed to be linked to the operation. That is, the intermediate switch 10 includes the actuator 11 projecting from one facing surface 5b 'of the facing frames 5a, 5b toward the other facing surface 5a', and when the lid portion 3 is closed, The intermediate switch 10 is held in the open state by retracting the actuator 11 due to the surface contact between the facing surfaces 5a 'and 5b', and when the lid 3 is opened and the hand switch 7 is turned on, the actuator 11 The intermediate switch 10 is switched to the closed state in conjunction with the protrusion, and the illumination lamp 8 is turned on in the storage section 2. Therefore, according to the above configuration, even if the hand switch 7 is forgotten to be turned off, the intermediate switch 10 maintains the open state if the lid 3 is closed, so that the power consumption of the battery 9 is wasted. It can be prevented.

Next, the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3C and 5 will be described. In the figure, reference numeral 12 is a handbag having the same basic configuration as that of the above-mentioned embodiment, and a Darlington phototransistor Tr1 (hereinafter simply referred to as a phototransistor Tr1) is embedded as a light receiving element in a frame 5a of the handbag 12. The light receiving surface S is flush with the upper surface of the frame 5a, and a switch SW having two sets of contacts sw1 and sw2 is provided inside the facing surface 5b 'of the frame 5a.

The contacts sw1 and sw2 of the switch SW are configured to be switched between closed and open in synchronization with the projecting operation and the retracting operation of the actuator 13 provided on the facing surface 5b 'of the frame 5a. The open state is maintained when the lid 3 is closed, and the closed state is maintained when the cover 3 is opened.

Here, the connection state of the phototransistor Tr1 and the switch SW will be described. One contact sw1 of the switch SW is connected to the anode terminal of the battery 9, and the output side of the contact sw1 and the battery 9 are connected. A sensitivity adjustment volume VR and a phototransistor Tr1 are connected in series between the cathode terminal and the input terminal n1 connected to a contact sw2 connected to the output side of the contact sw1 and an input terminal n2. The output terminal out of the logic element AND which is connected to the collector C of the phototransistor Tr1 is connected to the base B of the drive transistor Tr2 via the resistor R.

Further, an illuminating lamp 8 made of a lamp bulb is provided between the collector C of the drive transistor Tr2 and the output side of the contact sw1. The drive transistor Tr1 is driven when the phototransistor Tr1 is turned on. The illumination lamp 8 is turned on via the collector C and the emitter E of the Tr2.

In the above-mentioned configuration, the handbag 12 has a handkerchief, small articles, etc. stored in the storage portion 2 by opening and closing the lid portion 3 in the same manner as in the above embodiment in the daytime or under required illumination. Can be taken in and out.

At this time, when the cover 3 is operated to open, the contacts sw1 and sw2 of the switch SW are switched to the ON state by the protrusion of the actuator 13, but the light receiving surface S of the frame 5a is exposed to sunlight or illumination light. Since the phototransistor Tr1 becomes conductive by receiving the light, the input terminal n1 of the logic element AND is held at the L level, and the other input terminal n2 is held at the H level via the contacts sw1 and sw2. As a result, the output terminal out of the logic element AND holds the L level, and the illuminating lamp 8 is not turned on because the drive transistor Tr2 is cut off.

On the other hand, when the lid 3 is opened to take out a small item in the handbag 12 at night or in a movie theater, the contacts sw1 and sw2 of the switch SW are turned on by the protrusion of the actuator 13. At this time, since the sunlight or the illumination light is stopped from entering the light-receiving surface S of the frame 5a, the phototransistor Tr1 is turned off, the input terminal n1 of the logic element AND holds the H level, and the other The input terminal n2 holds the H level via the contacts sw1 and sw2, the output terminal out of the logic element AND switches to the H level, and the potential of the base B of the drive transistor T r2 rises. The drive transistor Tr2 becomes conductive and the lamp 8 is turned on.

Therefore, in the above-described embodiment, regardless of whether it is day or night or whether or not there is illumination light, the lid 3 of the handbag 12 is simply operated to open, and the illumination lamp in the storage 2 is adjusted according to the place and the situation. 8 can be turned on and off, the required receipts can be taken out easily and accurately, and the convenience of customers can be improved.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the illumination lamp 8 made of a lamp bulb is turned on and off in the storage unit 2. However, when the storage unit 2 has a relatively small volume, for example, a wallet or a pocket. In the case of a bag such as a shet, a light emitting diode (LED) that consumes less power may be provided in the housing 2 instead of the lamp bulb. Further, it goes without saying that the structure of the present invention can be appropriately adopted not only in the above-mentioned bag, but also in an attache case, a trunk, etc. which are constituted by a hard case.
