[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a container, and more specifically, it has a lid that can be opened and closed, and when it is closed, it is automatically locked, and when it is opened, it is released by simply pressing the protrusion, and the lid can be opened freely. The present invention relates to a container constructed so that the contents can be taken out.

Hereinafter, details of the present invention will be explained based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

The container 1 according to the present invention has a container body 2 and a lid 3 attached to the container body 2 so as to be openable and closable.

The container body 2 is formed as a rectangular casing with an open top, and the upper edge of one set of long sides is vertically extended over the entire length with the container body 2 protruding outward by approximately the thickness of the container body 2. A protruding piece 4 of a predetermined width is perforated therein.

At the center of the front wall 5 of this container body 2, a
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 3, a quadrilateral notch 5a is formed with its upper end open, and the periphery of this notch 5a is surrounded by ribs 5b that protrude outward. It is. The upper edge of this front wall 5 has a height that reaches the lower end of the protruding piece 4.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the back wall 6 of the container body 2 has a height that reaches the upper edge of the projecting pieces 4, 4, but there are notches on both sides of the upper end between the projecting pieces 4, 4. 6a are formed respectively.

U-shaped protrusions 7, 7 are formed continuously from the left and right inner surfaces of the inner surface of the container body 2 to the bottom surface at a predetermined distance in the longitudinal direction of the container body 2. These protrusions 7, 7 are included in a plane perpendicular to the bottom plate 2a of the container body 2.

Furthermore, a through hole 2b into which a nail or the like is fitted when attaching to a wall surface or the like is formed at a position closer to the rear wall 6 of the bottom plate 2a.

Furthermore, a plurality of protrusions 8 are formed on the back surface of the bottom plate 2a near both ends of the container body 2 in the longitudinal direction.

Further, at the rear end portions of the left and right protrusions 4, 4, through holes 4a are formed, respectively, into which a protrusion of a lid 3, which will be described later, is rotatably fitted.

On the other hand, the lid 3 is also formed in the shape of a housing with its lower end open, and its outer shape is almost the same as the outer shape of the container body 2.

As shown in FIG. 1, a quadrilateral notch 9a is formed in the front wall 9 of the lid 3 at a position corresponding to the notch 5a of the container body 2.
A rib 9b is also formed on the periphery of the holder so as to protrude outward. Therefore, when the lid 3 is closed, the notches 5a and 9a form one connected opening as shown in FIG. 1, and the periphery thereof is surrounded by the ribs 5b and 9b. Become.

The width of the lid 3 is equal to the width of the container body 2 excluding the protruding pieces 4, and in the closed state, the lower edge of the lid 3 fits inside the protruding pieces 4 of the container body 2.

Protrusions 10 that are rotatably fitted into the through holes 4a of the protrusions 4, 4 are protruded from the left and right front walls of the rear end of the lid 3, and the portion where these protrusions 10, 10 are formed. 2, the lower end of the rear wall 11 of the lid 3 ends.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the back wall 11 ends at a position close to the upper end of the back wall 6 of the container body 2, so that the left and right side walls of the lid 3 overlap the flesh of the back wall 11 at their rear ends. It is in a state where it is retracted inward by the thickness.

Incidentally, a recess 12 is formed in the left and right side walls near the front wall 9 of the lid 3, and a tongue piece 13 is formed to face downward at the upper end of the recess 12 and connected to the lid 3. . Both side edges of the tongue piece 13 are separated from the lid 3 and are in a free state, and the inner surface thereof is flush with the inner surface of the lid 3 and is thinned by the depth of the recess 12, so that the tongue piece 13 has a sufficient thickness. It has a structure that can be elastically deformed.

As shown in FIG. 4, the lower end of the tongue piece 13 reaches near the inner step of the protruding piece 4 that projects outside the upper edge of the container body 2.

A protrusion 14 is provided in the middle of the outer surface of the tongue piece 13 to project outward, and a hook 13a is provided below the protrusion 14 and on the outside of the lower end of the tongue piece 13. The upper edge of the hook 13a is horizontal, and the outer peripheral surface thereof is provided with a tapered surface that becomes thinner toward the tip.

By the way, as is clear from Fig. 1, the protrusion 1
The projecting piece 4 of the container body 2 at a position opposite to the projecting piece 4,
A notch 4b is formed at the upper end edge of 4. The depth of this notch 4b is approximately equal to the thickness of the protrusion 14.

A protrusion 4c that engages with the hook 13a is provided on the inner surface of the protrusion 4 at a position facing the notch 4b. The lower end of the protrusion 4c is horizontal, and a tapered surface that becomes thinner toward the upper end is formed on its outer surface.

Therefore, when the lid 3 is closed, the tongue piece 13 is elastically deformed and the hook 13a rides over the protrusion 4c, so that the two engage with each other.

In this state, the lid 3 is locked and cannot be opened. When opening, protrusions 14, 14
The lid 3 can be opened freely by pressing with a fingertip to elastically deform the tongue piece 13 inward and removing the hook 13a from the protrusion 4c.

On the other hand, a protrusion 15 is formed on the inner surface of the lid 3 from the left and right inner surfaces to the upper inner surface at positions corresponding to the protrusions 7, 7 of the container body 2.

By the way, what is shown in FIG. 6 is a dust removal roller shown as an example of an article to be housed in a container according to the present invention. A pincushion-shaped rotating frame 18 is rotatably and detachably attached to this support shaft 17. This rotating frame 18 has a plurality of arms 1 extending back and forth.
9 and 19 are provided at equal angular intervals in the circumferential direction, and as shown in FIG. 7, the dust removal roll 20 is attached using the elasticity of these arms 19. Garbage removal roll 2
0 is an adhesive sheet coated with an adhesive on the front side and a release agent on the back side, which is wound around a core material 21 in a roll shape, and a cut 22 is formed along the axial direction in a part of the adhesive sheet. A triangular notch 23 is formed at the edge of the grip 16 in a state continuous with the notch 22. This notch 2
3 is for making it easier to peel off the adhesive sheets one by one from the upper layer.

In the above-described embodiment, the adhesive is applied to the container body and the lid 3 in order to accommodate the dust removal roller, for example.
Although the protrusions 7 and 15 are formed so as not to adhere to the inner circumferential surface of the grip 16, and the notches 5a and 9a surrounding the grip 16 are formed, these parts are not necessary when the object to be stored is not a dust removal roller.

Further, if the container 1 does not need to be hung on a wall or the like, the through hole 2b is also unnecessary.

Next, a method of using the container 1 according to the present invention when a dust removal roller is used as a container will be explained.

When the lid 3 is open, the edge of the rear wall 11 of the lid 3 contacts the outer surface of the rear wall 6 of the container body 2, as shown in FIG. 3, and the lid 3 can be opened at a substantially right angle. can.

In this state, as shown in FIG. 7, the base of the grip 16 of the dust removal roller is fitted into the notch 5a of the front wall 5 of the container body 2, and the dust removal roll 20 is
is fitted into the container body 2.

Then, as shown by the chain line in FIG. 4, the dust removal roll 20 is supported in a state in which it is in contact only with the protrusion 7.

Therefore, the adhesive applied to the circumferential surface of the dust removal roll 20 does not adhere to the inner circumferential surface of the container body 2.

In this state, the lid 3 can be closed by rotating the lid 3 clockwise around the protrusion 10 in FIG. 7.

At this time, as described above, the hook 13a rides over the protrusion 4c while elastically deforming the tongue piece 13, so that the lid 3 is locked in the completely closed state.

Note that the rotation limit of the lid 3 in the closing direction is limited by the projection 1.
4 is regulated by contacting the upper edge of the notch 4b of the projecting piece 4 of the container body 2.

In this state, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, even if the container is attached perpendicularly to the wall surface 24 shown by the imaginary line with screws 25, etc., the lid 3 will not open because it is locked and the dust removal roller will not open. will not fall.

When opening the lid 3, press the protrusions 14 with your fingers to cause the tongue piece 13 to elastically deform inward and open the hook 1.
It can be opened extremely easily by removing 3a from the protrusion 4c.

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, a lid is rotatably supported on one end of the main body of the container, and elastically deformable tongue pieces are provided on both sides of the lid's free end. The structure has a hook on the outside of the lower end of the tongue that engages with a protrusion formed on the inner edge of the container body, so when the lid is closed, it is securely locked, and when it is opened, the tongue The lock can be released simply by pressing the projection protruding from the outside of the tongue with your finger and elastically deforming the tongue. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a container with an extremely simple structure and a lid that can be locked and unlocked with a single touch and whose contents can be easily taken out.
