Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a cosmetic compact that can be stored and carried in a handbag or the like.

``Prior art'' Needless to say, this type of compact is a cosmetic dish filled with cosmetics, in which a single-opening lid that can be locked with a clasp is pivotally attached to one end, and the whole is made flat and small, making it portable. It has a stool-like shape, and a mirror is attached to the back of the lid to make it convenient for applying makeup.

``Problem to be solved by the invention'' The mirror is a so-called plane mirror that is usually fixed to the back of the lid with adhesive. This mirror is used not only for applying makeup, but also for inspecting rough skin and small scratches left by razors. In such cases, it would be extremely convenient to be able to enlarge and photograph the images, but it would be troublesome to carry a separate concave mirror for this purpose.

The object of the present invention is to obtain a convenient cosmetic compact in which the mirror provided on the back of the lid is thin and elastically deformable, and can be used as an ordinary plane mirror at all times and can be converted into a concave mirror when necessary.

"Means for Solving the Problems" The cosmetic compact of the present invention has a single-opening lid 3 which is pivotally connected to the rear end of a cosmetic dish 1 by a hinge 2, and the rear end is connected to the rear end of the cosmetic tray 1 by a hinge 2. Between a substrate 5 which is pivotally attached to the rear upper surface of the cosmetic dish 1 on the front side and has a large number of ribs 4 arranged in circular shapes on the back surface, and a deformable thin-walled substrate 5 on the back surface of the substrate 5. A mirrored plate 8 is fixed by a shaft 6 at the center with an appropriate gap between the sides, and has a deformable thin plane mirror 7 integrally fixed to the back surface, and the front end is pivotally connected to the front back surface of the lid 3. , and an elastically deformable middle plate 10 having a long hole 9 in the center that loosely fits into the shaft 6 and inserted into the gap between the base plate 5 and the mirrored plate 8, and a lid 3 is planned. When opened to the opening degree B, the relative position of the intermediate plate 10 and the integral body of the base plate 5 and mirror plate 8 is displaced by a predetermined amount, and this displacement causes the intermediate plate 10 to move by a predetermined amount.
The peripheral edge of the rib 4 is made to ride on the group of ribs 4 to deform it into a concave shape, and this deformation deforms the mirrored plate 8 into a concave shape.

"Operation" In the above, in the closed state, the middle plate 10
The upper surface of the substrate 5 is separated from the four groups of ribs, and in this state, the intermediate plate 10 and therefore the mirrored plate 8 are both flat.

When the lid 3 is opened, the positions of the hinge 2, which is the fulcrum of the lid 3, and the fulcrum A of the board 5 are shifted back and forth, so the trajectories of these free ends are different, and therefore the lid 3
As the opening of When the position shifts toward the rear with respect to the middle plate 10 and this positional displacement exceeds the limit opening position A for a plane mirror and reaches the planned opening position B, the periphery of the middle plate 10 rides on the four groups of ribs of the base plate 5. It deforms into a concave shape, and this deformation transforms the mirrored plate 8, and therefore the plane mirror 7, into a concave mirror.

``Example'' The cosmetic dish 1 is rectangular, with a central cosmetic chamber filled with cosmetics 11, bearings 12, 12 for supporting the base plate 5 on both sides of the rear upper surface, and one side of the stopper in the center of the front. A protruding engaging protrusion 13 is provided.

The lid 3 has an engaging member 14 hanging down from the center of the front surface, the other engaging protrusion 15 of the stopper protruding from the lower rear surface of the engaging member 14, and a rear surface slightly rearward from the engaging member 14. Bearing 16,1 for supporting the middle plate 10
6 is installed vertically.

The substrate 5 is a rectangular plate that can be inserted into the back surface of the lid 3, and has a large number of ribs 4 formed in a circular shape at intervals on the back surface, a spiral tube 17 hanging from the center of the back surface, and a spiral tube 17 at the middle of the front edge. A notched recess 18 is provided through which the engaging member 14 passes, and pins 19, 19 on both sides of the rear end are pivotally supported by the bearings 12, 12, and are rotatably attached to the upper surface of the cosmetic dish 1.

The mirrored plate 8 is disc-shaped and has a plane mirror 7 on the back side.
are fixed together with adhesive, and a screw shaft 6 is set up in the center of the upper surface, and this screw shaft 6 is screwed into the screw tube 17 to form an appropriate gap between the back surface of the substrate 5 and this substrate 5. It is fixed. This mirror plate 8 and mirror 7
Both are thin and elastic, and therefore can be deformed. Incidentally, the mirror 7 may be made of ordinary glass or a resin material.

The middle plate 10 is disk-shaped and has elasticity, and the support pieces 2
Both ends of the pin 21 at the front end provided through the pin 21 are pivotally supported by the bearings 16, 16 to be pivotally attached to the front end of the back surface of the lid 3, and the elongated hole 9 in the center is loosely fitted into the screw tube 17. It is inserted into the gap between the base plate 5 and the mirrored plate 8 so as to be movable in the front and back direction with these integrated components.

The middle plate 10 has a flat back surface and is in contact with the top surface of the mirrored plate 8, and has a thick part 22 formed with circular ribs at intervals on the periphery of the top surface. From to the plane mirror limit opening position A, this thick part 22 is removed from the 4 groups of ribs on the back side of the board 5,
This maintains a flat plate shape, and when the lid 3 opens beyond the opening position A to the B position, the integral body of the base plate 5 and the mirrored plate 8 is displaced from the middle plate 10, and the middle plate 10 The thick portion 22 is assembled so that it rides on the four groups of ribs of the substrate 5, and its peripheral edge protrudes toward the back side and deforms into a concave shape.

Each of the above parts is molded and manufactured from synthetic resin material. In FIG. 1, for convenience, the lid 3 at the "B" position is also shown by a solid line.

"Effect of the invention" According to the above cosmetic compact of the invention, the lid 3
The mirror 7 on the back side is always used as a normal plane mirror, and if necessary, it can be transformed into a concave mirror, which is extremely convenient.The operation for this is to move the lid 3 slightly from the plane mirror limit opening position A when applying makeup. This is possible by opening it to position B, which is advanced to position B, and is simple and hassle-free. Also, structurally, the substrate 5, the mirror 7
3, a mirrored plate 8 which is glued together, and an intermediate plate 10 which is inserted between these so as to be relatively movable.
Although parts are required, they are all simple in shape and can be easily made from synthetic resin materials.
