Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a compact, and in particular, the invention is comprised of a container, a lid, and an inner plate removably disposed inside the container, and the inner plate is provided with a container. An engaging piece is provided that extends outward from one side and has a protrusion at its tip,
The present invention relates to a compact in which a concave portion that engages with the engagement piece is bored inside one side wall of the container.

[Prior Art] The above-mentioned compact is shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-9540, and as shown in Fig. 5, the engaging piece protrudes from the inner plate, and the free end extends upward. A pair of elastic engagement pieces consisting of an upper protrusion that extends horizontally and a lower protrusion that extends in the horizontal direction, and a groove or recess into which the upper protrusion fits is formed at the upper inner side of the recess. .

[Problems to be solved by the invention] In the compact described above, when the engaging piece is pressed toward the recess when attaching the inner plate, the upper protruding piece and the lower protruding piece are bent in a direction toward each other and are pushed into the recess. Fit together. Further, when the engaging piece is pulled when the inner plate is removed, the upper protruding piece and the lower protruding piece are bent in the direction in which they approach each other and are removed from the recessed portion in the same manner as described above. As described above, in conventional compacts, the inner plate is attached and detached by bending the engagement piece, so the engagement piece tends to break during attachment and detachment. Further, since the engaging piece is formed of a pair of upper and lower projecting pieces and has a complicated shape, it is troublesome to manufacture a mold. Furthermore, the die-cutting process is complicated because a recess with an enlarged interior must be formed inside one side wall of the container.

The present invention aims to provide a compact device that solves the above problems all at once.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The compact according to the present invention has only one engagement piece disposed on the inner plate, and an elastic body made of rubber or elastomer is attached to the inside of one side wall of the container. The lower part of the body is a recess that engages with the engagement piece.

[Function] In the compact according to the present invention, an elastic body is attached to the inside of one side wall of the container, and a recess is formed below the elastic body, so there is no need to bend the engagement piece when the engagement piece is engaged or disengaged. do not have. That is, when an engaging piece having a protrusion at the tip is pressed against the entrance of the recess, the elastic body deforms and the entrance of the recess expands, allowing the engaging piece to be inserted, and even when the engaging piece is released. Similarly, the elastic body can be deformed to fit the engagement piece.

Further, the compact according to the present invention has a simple shape because it has only one stage of engagement pieces.

Furthermore, since the compact according to the present invention has a concave portion formed by pasting an elastic body on the inside of one side wall of the container, it is not necessary to mold the concave portion, or even if there is, it is very simple.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 3.

1 is a compact according to the present invention, and 10 is a container of the compact 1. 30 is a lid of the compact 1, which is connected to the container 1 via a hinge 32.
It is connected to the rear end of 0. Reference numeral 14 denotes an engagement protrusion protruding from the recess 12 on the front side of the container 10, which engages with an engagement protrusion 34 vertically provided on the front edge of the lid 30 to maintain the closed state of the lid 30. hold.

40 is a medium plate for storing cosmetics; container 1;
It is placed inside 0. Reference numeral 44 denotes an engagement piece that extends forward or backward from the bottom plate 42 of the inner tray 40, and this engagement piece 44 has a protrusion 46 projecting downward over its entire width at its tip.

Reference numeral 18 denotes an engagement groove that engages with the protrusion 46, and is bored laterally at the front and rear ends of the inner bottom of the container 10, so that the inner plate 40 can be inserted into the container 1.
0, the protrusion 46 engages with this engagement groove 18. In the above embodiment, the protrusion 46 protrudes downward over the entire width of the tip, but is not limited to this and may protrude partially.

Reference numerals 51 and 53 are elastic bodies made of rubber or elastomer, and are in the form of long and narrow plates extending in the left-right direction. These elastic bodies 51 and 53 are mounting plates for the engagement piece 44, and are attached to the insides of the front wall 11 and rear wall 13 of the container 10. Elastic bodies 51, 53
Each has a gap 22 with approximately the same height as the thickness of the engaging piece 44 of the inner plate 40 between it and the bottom plate 16 of the container 10, and has a gap 22 in the left-right direction at the lower end of the side to which it is attached. It has a notch 52 that extends to. A recess 20 with a narrow entrance and a wide depth is formed by the gap 22 and the engagement groove bored in the inner bottom of the container 10, and the engagement piece of the inner plate 40 is inserted into this recess 20. 44, the inner plate 40 is fixed inside the container 10.

In this case, when the engaging piece 44 of the inner plate 10 is pressed against the entrance of the recess 20 of the container 10 at an angle as shown in FIG. Since it is larger than the engagement piece 4
4 presses the lower end 54 of the elastic body 53.
Since the pressed elastic body 53 is distorted backward and upward, the entrance of the recess 20 becomes larger, and the engagement piece 44 is fitted into the recess 20.

Although not essential, if cutouts 52 are provided in the elastic bodies 51 and 53 as in the above embodiment,
The elastic bodies 51 and 53 are easily deformed when pressed, making it easier to fit the engagement piece 44 into the recess 20.

In addition, instead of the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the container 1
An L-shaped member 24 having a notch 25 may be disposed on the inner wall side of 0. That is, the L-shaped member 24 is bonded to the inner wall and inner bottom surface of the container 10 such that the gap 26 between the upper surface and the lower surface of the elastic bodies 51 and 53 is approximately at the same height as the thickness of the engaging piece 44. However, the gap 26 and the notch 25 of the L-shaped member 24 may form a recess 20 into which the engagement piece 44 is fitted. This L-shaped member 24 is connected to the elastic bodies 51 and 5.
3, it may be formed of rubber or elastomer, or it may be molded integrally with the container 10.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, the recess 20 is provided on the front wall 11 and the rear wall 13 of the container 10, but the recess 20 may be provided on any one of the front, rear, left, and right side walls of the container 10. Note that it is convenient to provide the recesses 20 in the four peripheral walls so that the inner plate 40 can be fixed at a desired location.

[Effects of the invention] In the compact according to the invention, when the inner plate is attached or removed, the engaging piece is inserted by deforming the elastic body stuck above the recess of the container, so that the engaging piece is difficult to break. Further, since only one engaging piece is arranged and the shape is simple, the mold can be easily manufactured. Furthermore, since the recessed portion of the container is formed by pasting an elastic body inside one side wall of the container, the step of cutting out the recessed portion is unnecessary or simple.
