Description

【０００１】
【産業上の利用分野】
この発明は、自動組み立てが可能なコンパクトに関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
一般に、コンパクトは、容器本体の後端部に蓋体をヒンジ連結して構成され、蓋体が開閉自在になっている。このようなコンパクトとして、例えば、図１８に示すようなものがある。このコンパクトは、上面に化粧皿３３収容用凹部３１ａが形成された容器本体３１の後端部の左右両側壁３１ｂに、蓋体３２の後端部の中央から垂下する連結部３２ａをヒンジ軸３７によりヒンジ連結して構成されている。このコンパクトの閉蓋状態は、上記容器本体３１の前端部の切欠凹部３１ｃの奥面に形成された係合突起３４と上記蓋体３２の前端部から垂下する係合爪３５との係合により保持されるようになっている。そして、蓋体３２の開蓋は、上記切欠凹部３１ｃに取り付けられた操作片３６を奥側に押圧して上記係合を解除したのち、蓋体３２の前面や左右両側面を手指で持って後方に回動させることにより行われる。しかしながら、このコンパクトでは、上記係合を解除したのち蓋体３２を後方に回動させるときに、容器本体３１と蓋体３２との間に隙間がないため、蓋体３２の前面や左右両側面を手指で持ちにくいという問題がある。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
そこで、開蓋時に蓋体３２を手指で持ちやすくしたものとして、図１９に示すように、蓋体３２の連結部３２ａの右側面に凹部３８を設け、この凹部３８にコイルばね３９を、ヒンジ軸３７に巻き付けた状態で収容し、この収容状態で、上記コイルばね３９の一端３９ａを上記凹部３８の後側面３８ａに接当させるとともに、他端３９ｂを容器本体３１の後端部に形成した切欠部４０の底面４０ａに接当させるようにしたものがある。このものでは、操作片３６を奥側に押圧して上記係合を解除したときに、上記コイルばね３９のばね力で蓋体３２が開蓋方向に少し回動し、容器本体３１と蓋体３２との間に隙間ができるようになる。ところが、このものでは、組立て時に、図２０に示すように、ヒンジ軸３７にコイルばね３９を挿通しこれを連結部３２ａの軸穴４１および凹部３８に組付ける作業を要し、この作業は手先の細かな（器用な）動きが必要とされるため、手作業により行われていた。したがって、上記組立て作業の作業効率が悪く、上記手作業を自動化して作業の効率アップを図ることが強く要望されている。
【０００４】
この発明は、このような事情に鑑みなされたもので、組み立て作業の自動化が可能なコンパクトの提供をその目的とする。
【０００５】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、この発明のコンパクトは、容器本体の前端部に係合部を設けるとともに、蓋体の前端部に上記係合部と着脱自在に係合する係合爪を垂設し、上記容器本体の後端部に切欠部を設けるとともに、上記蓋体の天井板部の後端部から上記切欠部内に連結部を下垂させてヒンジ連結し、上記切欠部の前面に凹部を形成するとともに、連結部に、その下端面から上端面にわたって前面開放状の切欠き部を形成し、この切欠き部に弾性体を取付け、この弾性体を、上記切欠き部に収まる大きさの直方体の前部下側部分に、上記凹部に収まる大きさの押さえ部を形成したもので構成し、上記弾性体の上端面と押さえ部の下端面間の距離を、閉蓋状態における上記凹部の底面と蓋体の天井板部の下面との間の距離よりも長く形成し、閉蓋状態において上記弾性体の上端面を蓋体の天井板部の下面に圧縮状態で接当させるとともに、上記弾性体の押さえ部の下端面を上記凹部の底面に圧縮状態で接当させるように構成したという構成をとる。
【０００６】
【作用】
すなわち、この発明のコンパクトは、容器本体の後端部に設けた切欠部内に蓋体の後端部から連結部を下垂させてヒンジ連結し、上記切欠部と連結部との一方に弾性体を取付け、閉蓋状態において上記弾性体の一部を上記切欠部と連結部との他方に圧縮状態で接当させるようにしている。したがって、閉蓋状態（容器本体の前端部に設けた係合部を蓋体の前端部に垂設した係合爪に係合させた状態）から開蓋状態にするため、上記係合を解除する場合には、圧縮された弾性体の一部が伸長し、この伸長により蓋体が開蓋側に押圧されて後方に（すなわち、上方に）回動する。このため、容器本体と蓋体との間に隙間ができ、蓋体の前面や左右両側面を手指で持上げやすくなる。しかも、蓋体に弾性体を取付ける作業は、容器本体の切欠部と蓋体の連結部との一方に弾性体を、その一部が閉蓋時に上記切欠部と連結部との他方に圧縮状態で接当するように取付けるだけで行うことができ、従来例のように手先の細かな動きを必要とせず、自動化が容易になる。
【０００７】
つぎに、この発明を実施例にもとづいて詳しく説明する。
【０００８】
【実施例】
図１はこの発明のコンパクトの一実施例を示している。この実施例では、コンパクトは、合成樹脂製の容器本体１と、合成樹脂製の蓋体２とを備えている。上記容器本体１は皿状に形成されており、図２および図３に示すように、その上面には凹部１ａが形成され、この凹部１ａに化粧料４が充填された化粧皿３が収容されている。また、容器本体１には、その前壁の前端面に凹部１ｂが形成されており、この凹部１ｂの奥面に係合突条７が形成されている。一方、上記容器本体１には、図４および図５に示すように、その後壁１ｃの中央部に切欠き部５が形成されており、この切欠き部５の前面の中央部に凹部６が形成されている。図２において、８は上記凹部１ｂに収容される開蓋用の操作片であり、９は容器本体１の後壁１ｃの左右両側部に、上記後壁１ｃの左右の各側面から切欠き部５の左右の各側面にわたって貫通状に形成された軸穴である。
【０００９】
上記蓋体２には、図６および図７に示すように、その前端部に、上記容器本体１の凹部１ｂの奥面に形成された係合突条７に着脱自在に係合しうる係合爪２ａが垂設されているとともに、図８〜図１０に示すように、その後端部に連結部１０が垂設されている。この連結部１０は、上記蓋体２の後端部から垂下する後側支持部分１０ａと、この後側支持部分１０ａの左右両側から前方に向かって延びる横側支持部分１０ｂと、これら各支持部分１０ａ，１０ｂの下端部に固定される横長円柱部分１０ｃ（この横長円柱部分１０ｃの上面は前側に向かって下る傾斜面に形成されている）とからなり、上記蓋体２の天井板部の下面と横長円柱部分１０ｃの傾斜面との間に隙間が形成されるようにしている。また、上記横長円柱部分１０ｃには、その中央部に上下に貫通する前面開放状の切欠き部１１が垂直方向に穿設されており、この切欠き部１１の上部空間を挟むようにして上記横長円柱部分１０ｃの上面から、後述のゴム体１５が左右に倒れないようにするための側壁部分１０ｄが立設されている。図６において、１３は蓋体２の裏面に貼着された鏡である。また、図１０において、１４は蓋体２の連結部１０の左右両側部に貫通状に形成された軸穴である。
【００１０】
上記切欠き部１１には、図１２に示すようなシリコン製ゴム体１５が取付けられている。このゴム体１５は、上記切欠き部１１に収まる大きさの直方体の前面上半部分と下面中央部分とをそれぞれ切欠き形成したものであり、これにより、前部下側部分に、上記容器本体１の切欠き部５の凹部６に収まる大きさの押さえ部１５ａが形成されるようにしている。そして、上記ゴム体１５の上端面と押さえ部１５ａの下端面間の距離が、閉蓋時における上記凹部６の底面と蓋体２の天井板部の下面との間の距離よりもやや長く形成されており、これにより、閉蓋時に押さえ部１５ａが圧縮される状態にしている。
【００１１】
上記ゴム体１５を蓋体２の連結部１０の切欠き部１１に取付ける場合には、押さえ部１５ａを前側にし切欠き部１１内に押し込むことが行われる（図１参照）。そして、このような作業は、機械を用いて行われる。また、このようにして取付けられたゴム体１５は、図１３に示すように、その上端面が蓋体２の天井板部の下面に接当し、押さえ部１５ａの前部下側部分が容器本体１の凹部６の底面に接当している。
【００１２】
このような構成において、保管時（閉蓋時）には、図１に示すように、容器本体１の凹部１ｂの係合突条７に蓋体２の係合爪２ａが係合されており、この状態で、圧縮状態のゴム体１５の押さえ部１５ａの前部の前面および下面が容器本体１の切欠き部５の凹部６の前面および下面に圧縮状態で接当している。そして、この閉蓋状態から開蓋状態にする場合には、操作片８を奥側に押して上記係合を解除することが行われる。これにより、図１４に示すように、上記ゴム体１５の押さえ部１５ａの復元力で蓋体２が開蓋側に押圧されて少し上方に回動し、容器本体１と蓋体２との間に隙間ができる。そののち、上記蓋体２を手指で持ち後方に回動して開蓋することが行われる。
【００１３】
このように、上記コンパクトでは、操作片８を奥側に押して容器本体１の係合突条７と蓋体２の係合爪２ａとの係合を解除すると、自動的に蓋体２が開蓋側に少し回動するため、容器本体１と蓋体２との間に隙間ができ、蓋体２を手指で持ちやすくなる。しかも、蓋体２にゴム体１５を取付ける作業を自動化することができる。さらに、ゴム体１５が蓋体２の連結部１０の中央部に取付けられているため、開蓋時に蓋体２が傾くことがない。このため、ヒンジ軸等が偏磨耗して早期に損傷したり、閉蓋しにくいというようなことがない。
【００１４】
図１５〜図１７はこの発明のその他の実施例を示している。この実施例では、容器本体１の後壁１ｃの左右両側部に切欠き部１６が形成されており、両切欠き部１６のうち右側の切欠き部１６の前面の左端部に、上記ゴム体１５の押さえ部１５ａが収まる大きさの凹部１７が形成されている。
【００１５】
一方、蓋体２の後端部の左右両側部に連結部１８が垂設されており、両連結部１８のうち右側の連結部１８の左端部に上下に貫通する前面開放状の切欠き部１９が垂直方向に穿設されている。図１７において、１９ａはゴム体１５が右側に倒れないようにするための側壁部分である。
【００１６】
それ以外の部分は上記実施例と同様であり、同様の部分には同じ符号を付している。この実施例では、上記ゴム体１５が蓋体２の右側の連結部１８の切欠き部１９に取付けられ、上記実施例と同様に作用し、効果を奏する。
【００１７】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、この発明のコンパクトによれば、閉蓋状態（容器本体の前端部に設けた係合部を蓋体の前端部に垂設した係合爪に係合させた状態）から開蓋状態にするため、上記係合を解除する場合には、圧縮された弾性体の一部が伸長し、この伸長により蓋体が開蓋側に押圧されて後方に（すなわち、上方に）回動する。このため、容器本体と蓋体との間に隙間ができ、蓋体の前面や左右両側面を手指で持ち上げやすくなる。しかも、蓋体に弾性体を取付ける作業は、容器本体の切欠部と蓋体の連結部との一方に弾性体を、その一部が閉蓋時に上記切欠部と連結部との他方に圧縮状態で接当するように取付けるだけで行うことができ、従来例のように手先の細かな動きを必要とせず、自動化が容易になる。
