Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a lid opening/closing device for a cosmetic container such as a compact, and in particular, the container body and the lid are provided with an overlapping part that overlaps with each other, and the overlapping part is held by a slidable clamping member. The present invention relates to a lid opening/closing device that opens and closes by opening and closing the lid.

Conventionally, cosmetic containers such as compacts have been known in which the container body and the lid are provided with hook means that engage with each other to open and close the lid. The impact was so great that there was a risk that the stored cosmetics would crack or scatter.
In addition, when using such a hook means, a plurality of independent storage parts for separately storing cosmetics and their applicators are provided in the container body, and these can be opened and closed separately with a plurality of lids. However, since the hook means has two meshing parts, the impact when the lid is closed becomes larger, and there is a risk that the cosmetic may crack or scatter more.

This invention was made in order to eliminate such drawbacks seen in conventional cosmetic containers, and consists of a container body 1 having a plurality of storage parts 2 and 3 formed therein, and a container body 1 having a plurality of storage parts 2 and 3 arranged in parallel on one side of the container body 1. It consists of a plurality of lids 4 and 5 that are hinged to be openable and closable and cover the plurality of storage sections 2 and 3 individually and independently, and the other side edge of the container body 1 is opposite to the hinge of the lid. the plurality of storage sections 2 and 3;
A plate-shaped overhang piece 6 is formed that extends across the plurality of lid bodies 4 and 5, and plate-like overhang pieces 7 and 8 are formed on the plurality of lid bodies 4 and 5, respectively, so that they overlap on the overhang piece 6 when the lid is closed. The projecting pieces 6, 7, 8 are provided with a cross-sectional clamping means 9.
The device is characterized in that the lids 4 and 5 can be slidably held, and all of the plurality of lids 4 and 5 can be locked or selectively unlocked by sliding the gripping means 9, see the drawings below. I will explain it in detail.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a container body, which includes an independent cosmetic storage section 2 and an applicator storage section 3. 4,
Reference numeral 5 denotes a plurality of lids which are hinged to the container main body 1 on one side, and open and close the plurality of storage sections 2 and 3 of the container main body 1 independently.

On the side opposite to the lid hinge part, plate-shaped projecting pieces 6, 7, and 8, which are overlapping parts that overlap with each other when the lid is closed, are protruded. The overhang piece 6 formed on the container body 1 extends across the two storage parts 2 and 3, and the overhang pieces 7 and 8 formed on each lid body 4 and 5 are such that the lid bodies are adjacent to each other. terminates at the side end. Reference numeral 9 denotes a holding member that holds the overlapping pieces 6, 7, and 8, and has a cross-sectional shape.
It has a sufficient length to simultaneously straddle and hold the object. The clamping member 9 consists of a guide groove 10 formed on the lower surface of the overhang piece 6 of the container body 1 and an overhang piece 7 of the lid body 4, 5.
The open end is fitted into a guide groove 11 formed on the upper surface of 8, and the overhanging pieces 6,
7 and 8 can be slid freely in the longitudinal direction. When the clamping member 9 is positioned astride both the overhanging pieces 7 and 8 on the lid side, the two lids 4 and 5 are held in a closed state at the same time, and the clamping member 9 is slid to either the left or right. When retreating from the overhanging piece 7 or 8 on one lid side, either the lid 4 or 5 can be opened. It would also be possible to make it possible to open and close a plurality of lids at the same time by sliding the holding member 9 widely. In this way, when both lids 4 and 5 are opened at the same time, the clamping member 9 will clamp only the overhanging piece on the lid side or the main body side, and the clamping force may decrease and the overhanging piece may become loose. The ends of the clamping member 9 can be thickened to prevent the clamping force from decreasing, or a leaf spring 13 can be stretched between the inner surface of the clamping member 9 and the overhang piece to absorb looseness, as shown in FIG. You may also do this. Note that the overlapping portion is not limited to the above-mentioned overhanging pieces 6, 7, and 8, and a portion of the container body 1 and the lids 4, 5 are overlapped to form the overlapping portion, and the clamping member 9 is connected to the container body 1 and the lids 4, 5. It may be directly slidably attached to the lid and held.

It is very advantageous to provide a suitable stop in order to stop the clamping member 9 in a position in which the two lids 4, 5 are simultaneously locked in the closed position.
Further, in order to make the clamping state even stronger, the thickness of the central portion of the overhanging piece 6 on the side of the container body 1 may be made thicker to generate a clamping force when clamping. Furthermore, the lid 4 on the side of the cosmetics storage section 2 is tightly attached to the container body 1 to prevent the cosmetic from drying out, and air holes are formed in the lid 5 on the side of the applicator storage section 3 for application. It would be a good idea to try to dry the ingredients. In addition, 12 is Kagami.

As described above, the cosmetic container lid opening/closing device of this invention includes a container main body 1 in which a plurality of storage sections 2 and 3 are formed, and a flap that is arranged in parallel on one side of the container main body 1 and can be opened and closed freely. It consists of a plurality of lids 4 and 5 that are attached to each other and cover the plurality of storage parts 2 and 3 individually and independently, and the plurality of storage parts are arranged on the other side edge of the container body 1 facing the hinge of the lid. A plate-shaped overhang piece 6 is formed that extends across the lids 4 and 3, and plate-like overhang pieces 7 and 8 that overlap the overhang piece 6 when the lid is closed are attached to the plurality of lid bodies 4 and 5. A cross-sectional holding means 9 is slidably held by the overhanging pieces 6, 7, and 8, and the plurality of lid bodies 4,
5. All locks or selective unlocks can be performed, so the plurality of lids can be opened and closed individually by sliding the clamping means, and each storage section can be opened and closed independently. The convenience of use is improved since there is no fear that the applied applicator may fall during use of the cosmetic container, and the lid is opened and closed by sliding the clamping means, so conventional interlocking hook means are used. There is no shock generated when the lid is closed, unlike the case, and there is no risk of cracking or other damage to the cosmetics. In addition, since the storage section is divided into small parts, it is possible to reduce the risk of water from the stored cosmetics scattering.
