Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a hinge portion used in a compact or the like.

Taking compacts as an example, compacts are not only particularly important among various cosmetic tools for women, but also have the characteristic of being carried with them at all times and being used extremely frequently. In addition to being highly functional and user-friendly, it is also required to be fashionable and smart as a woman's portable item.

In general, compacts are constructed so that they can accommodate the essential items needed when applying makeup, such as puffs and brushes. Many of them are constructed so that a puff is placed on the body and a red brush can be stored in a recess formed in front of the puff. However, with this type of structure, residual cosmetics on the puff, red brush, etc. may scatter inside the compact, thereby staining the mirror placed on the back of the lid. and each time you use it,
There is the inconvenience of having to wipe off this dirt.

Recently, in an attempt to solve this inconvenience, the body is placed in the upper part of the body so that it can slide freely, and cosmetic tools such as puffs and red brushes are stored in the lower part of the body. A new system has emerged that is structured so that it can be done.

For products with this kind of configuration, it would be more convenient to use them if the body could be removed when cleaning the accommodating part of the puff etc. or replacing the cosmetics. In addition, if the body can be freely removed and a separately prepared lid can be attached to it as needed, it becomes possible to carry the cosmetic as a stand-alone product, and
You can arbitrarily choose a lid with a different color tone of your choice, making it more convenient; however, with conventional lids, such removal is easy due to the construction of the hinge. This is considered impossible, and the inconvenience in this respect cannot be denied.

The present invention provides a container such as a compact, in which a convex part or a concave part is integrally formed in the hinge part of the body or lid, and the hinge parts are fitted into each other, so that the hinge part can be opened and closed. In,
At the ends of both side surfaces of the body, bendable plate-like parts 4, 4 with downward and lateral notches are formed, and either the recesses 3, 3 or the protrusions 2, 2 are formed. By providing one side on the plate-shaped parts 4, 4, the hinge part can be removed extremely easily, thereby making it possible to use cosmetic tools having a hinge part, such as compacts. This is an attempt to improve self-discipline.

Taking the compact as an example, the structure of the hinge part will be explained with reference to Fig. 1. Compact 1
includes a main body 5, a lid 7 attached to the main body 5 via a hinge 6, and a lid 7 attached to the rear side of the lid 7 via a hinge 8, and the main body 5.
It consists of a body 9 disposed in an upwardly movable state, and communication between the body 9 and the lid body 7 is provided through recesses 3, 3 formed in the body 9 and on the inner surface of the side wall of the lid body 7. It has a schematic configuration in which this can be done by fitting the formed convex portions (not shown in the drawings) into each other.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the main body 5 has a accommodating section 11 for accommodating cosmetic tools such as puffs, and guard rails 10, 10 arranged horizontally are formed on both left and right wall surfaces of the accommodating section 11. In addition, a protrusion 12 is formed on the outer wall on the front side for securing the cover to the lid 7.
Further, a lid 7 is attached to the opposite wall via a hinge 6.

As shown in FIG. 1, the lid body 7 has a structure in which a mirror 17 is attached and fixed to the back surface thereof, and a mirror 17 is attached to the front side of the mirror 17 to engage with a protrusion 12 formed on the main body 2. It has a configuration in which an upright piece 13 is formed for the purpose of connecting the body 9 to the body 9, and circular convex portions (not shown in the drawings) for connection with the body 9 are formed on both left and right inner wall surfaces of the body 9. ) is formed.

The body 9 is as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2,
It has a structure in which a recess 14 for putting cosmetics is formed in the upper part thereof, and cut parts 15a/15b from below and from the lateral direction are formed in the end of the side part. As a result, the body 9 is provided with bendable plate-like parts 4, 4 on both sides thereof, and the second plate-like parts 4, 4 are provided on the sides of the plate-like parts 4, 4. Lid body 7 as shown in the figure
It has a configuration in which recesses 3, 3 are formed in a shape corresponding to the protrusion 2 formed therein.

Moreover, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the structure of the body of the compact and the separately prepared lid body, and shows the protrusion 2,
The lid body 16 formed in the compact 1 is a lid body prepared separately from the compact 1.

4 to 6 are different embodiments of the body 9, and FIG. 4 shows the incisions made from the upper and lateral directions of the body 9 when forming the plate pieces 4, 4. This is the case where the fifth part 15 is formed.
The figure shows a notch 15 from the upper end to the lower end.
FIG. 6 shows the case where the protrusions 2 are formed on the sides of the plate pieces 4, 4, and the lid 16 is a separately prepared lid. However, if the configuration is as shown in FIG. 6, the other member such as the lid 7 will have a recess formed in place of the projection 2.

The structure of the hinge part in the compact etc. according to the present invention is as described above, and when it becomes necessary to remove each component connected by the hinge part, the plate piece 4, It has the advantage that it can be performed by a one-touch operation of pressing 4 inward. Therefore, when it becomes necessary to remove the body when cleaning the compact or replacing cosmetics, there is an advantage in that this work can be done extremely easily.

In addition, if you take out the body of the compact and attach a separately prepared lid to it so that it can be carried as a separate body, the advantage is that it is extremely easy to remove the body and attach it to the lid. Yes, and its effectiveness is great.
