Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a compact container in which a puff case is attached to the lower part of a compact body for storing cosmetics such as pancakes. The purpose is to make it easier to dry the puffs in the puff case.

Pancakes, which are a type of foundation for cosmetics, are made by melting them into a sponge-like puff that contains sufficient moisture to apply makeup.

Therefore, it is convenient and desirable to store this type of cosmetics and puffs in one compact container, but if the puffs containing moisture are stored directly in the cosmetics area after use, the cosmetics There is an inconvenience that the powder may melt, and the puff itself must be kept as dry as possible from a hygienic point of view when not in use.

For this reason, it is possible to attach a puff case that stores puffs under the compact body that stores cosmetics so that it can be opened and closed. It is assembled so that it can slide freely in the front and rear directions.

If the puff case is slidably assembled to the compact body in this manner, there is a risk that the puff case may open improperly or fall out of the compact body when not in use. Also, when the puff case is closed, ventilation will be poor.
This makes it difficult for the puff to dry.

The present invention is a compact container devised to solve the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, in which the upper end of the rear wall of the puff case crosses over and locks onto the lower surface of the rear end of the compact body, in which the puff case is slidably assembled underneath. In addition to providing a locking protrusion, cutouts are provided in the front and rear walls of the puff case.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a rectangular, thin box-shaped container body, in which a recess 2 is provided in the center into which a drum for storing pancakes as cosmetics is fitted, and engaging protrusions 3 are provided in the longitudinal direction on the lower edges of both sides. A notch 4 is formed in the center of the rear part into which the rear end of the lid 6 (described later) is incorporated, and a pair of locking protrusions 5 protrudes from both sides of the rear end of the lower surface. has been done.

Further, a hinge piece 7 is provided hanging down from the rear end of the plate-shaped lid 6, and this hinge piece 7 is fitted into the notch 4 and assembled to the container body 1 via the hinge shaft, making it compact. It will be configured as body 8.

Next, below this compact body 8, there is a puff P
A thin box-shaped puff case 9 for storing the is attached so as to be slidable in the front and rear directions.

That is, both side walls 1 of the puff case 9 are composed of a bottom wall 10, a front wall 11, a rear wall 12, and a side wall 13.
3. On the inner surface of the upper end portion, a guide groove 14 with which the engagement protrusion 3 of the container body 1 engages is provided along the length direction with the rear end open.
The rear end of the puff case 9 is aligned with the front end of the container body 1, the engagement protrusion 3 is fitted into the guide groove 14, and the puff case 9 is pushed to the rear end of the container body 1 to be assembled.

At this time, the rear wall 12 climbs over the locking projection 5 on the lower surface of the rear end of the container body 1, and the locking projection 5 is almost in contact with the inner surface of the upper end of the rear wall 12. The protruding position of the locking protrusion 5 is as follows:
This is a portion located at the rear end of the lower surface of the container body 1 and moved inward by the thickness width of the upper end of the rear wall 12.

Note that the upper end of the center portion of the rear wall 12 and the upper end of the center portion of the front wall 11 opposing thereto are each formed with a cutout portion 15 cut out from the upper edge to improve ventilation inside the puff case 9. There is.
This notch 15 is open even when the puff case 9 is closed.

As is clear from the above description, the compact container of the present invention has a structure in which the puff case 9 is assembled to the lower part of the compact body 8 so as to be slidable in the front and back direction, and the rear wall 12 of the puff case 9 is attached to the rear end of the lower surface of the compact body 8. The puff case 9 is attached to the compact body 8 because the upper end is provided with a locking protrusion 5 that can be crossed over and locked.
In the assembled state, the locking protrusion 5 is in contact with the inner surface of the upper part of the rear wall 12, so that the puff case 9 will not slide forward unnecessarily and open.

Of course, since the locking projection 5 has a simple bulging shape, the rear wall 12 can overcome the locking projection 5 by applying a certain amount of force, so that there is no problem in the opening operation. In addition, notches 1 are provided in the front wall 11 and the rear wall 12.
5, it has good air permeability, and as a result, moist puffs inside the puff case dry quickly, so the puffs can be kept clean. In addition, some conventional puff cases maintain ventilation by forming ventilation holes in the bottom wall, but these ventilation holes are blocked by the puff, making it impossible to obtain sufficient ventilation. Another drawback is that the moisture in the puff oozes out through its vents, staining other items inside the handbag.

Therefore, the present invention has an extremely simple structure and is easy to mold, and since the puff case does not unnecessarily open against the compact body, it is convenient to carry and easy to use, and the puff can be kept dry and clean. It has many excellent effects, such as being able to maintain
