Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a compact case in which an inner tray filled with cosmetics can be refilled.

[Prior Art] Many compact cases have been proposed in the past, in which an inner tray filled with cosmetics can be attached or detached at will. The main attachment/detachment means include a structure in which the inner plate is attached with an adhesive, a structure in which the inner plate is attracted by magnetic force, a structure in which an engaging portion is provided on the inner plate and the case and the inner plate is engaged. There was a structure like this.

[The problem that the idea attempts to solve]

However, the configuration in which the inner plate is attached with adhesive is easy to attach because all you have to do is attach the inner plate to the adhesive, but when removing the inner plate, However, since the inner plate had to be pushed up against the adhesive force of the adhesive, it was difficult to remove the inner plate. Further, although the structure in which the inner plate is attracted by magnetic force allows the inner plate to be easily attached and removed, it requires magnets and magnetic materials for the inner plate and the case, which causes high costs. In addition, the structure in which an engaging part is provided on the inner plate and the case and the inner plate is engaged is a mechanism for removing the inner plate, such as pushing a wedge-shaped button below the inner plate and pushing up the inner plate. A special mechanism was required. Also,
When the inner plate was attached and removed, stress was applied to the inner plate, causing the inner plate to deform and sometimes damaging the cosmetics.

[Means to solve problems]

In a structure in which the lid body 9 and the container body 10 are hinged to each other so as to be openable and closable, and a storage recess 12 is provided on the upper surface of the container body 10 to which a storage tray 2 filled with cosmetics 1 is attached. The storage tray 2 is formed from thin metal, and is provided with a flange 3 projecting outward around the entire circumference of its upper end. A piece 4 having a certain degree of elasticity is provided continuously from one side of the flange 3. At the tip of this section 4, a curled portion 5 which is curled downward into a pipe shape is provided. Elastic bodies 7, 7 formed from an elastic material are inserted and fixed into the openings 6, 6 on both end faces of the curled part 5, with semicircular spherical heads 8a, 8a exposed to the outside. .

One inner wall 12a of the storage recess 12 of the container body 10
has a shape that follows the outer shape of the curled portion 5,
and the head portions 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 of the curl portion 5;
A groove 15 having a width narrower than the width between the grooves 8a is carved.
The distance between the groove 15 and the opposite inner wall 12b is configured to be slightly shorter than the distance between the curled portion 5 of the storage tray 2 and the opposite outer wall.

[Effect]

When installing the storage tray 2, first the curled portion 5 of the storage tray 2 is inserted into the groove 15 of the storage recess 12 and brought into contact with it. At this time, since the heads 8a, 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 protrude from both ends of the curled part 5,
It can be easily inserted, and the width of the groove 15 is equal to the head portions 8a, 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 of the curled portion 5.
Because the width is narrower than the width between the elastic bodies 7, 7
The heads 8a, 8a of the head 8a are elastically abutted against both side walls of the groove 15, and are engaged so as not to fall off inadvertently, but rotatably around the curled portion 5. In this state, the storage tray 2 is rotated around the curled portion 5, and the storage tray 2 is mounted in the storage recess 12. At this time, since the groove 15 has a rounded shape that follows the outer shape of the curled portion 5, the storage tray 2 can be rotated smoothly. Further, the distance from the groove 15 of the storage recess 12 to the inner wall 12b on the opposite side is as follows:
Although the distance is slightly shorter than the distance from the curled portion 5 of the storage tray 2 to the outer wall on the opposite side, since the storage tray 2 is made of thin-walled metal, the section 4 bends slightly and the storage tray 2 can be attached to the storage recess 12. The resilient force of this piece 4 causes the storage tray 2 to be resiliently held in the storage recess 12.

Moreover, by pushing up the opposite side of the curled portion 5 of the storage tray 2, the storage tray 2 can be easily removed.

〔Example〕

First, the storage tray 2 filled with the cosmetic 1 will be explained. The storage tray 2 is formed by molding an aluminum plate material with a wall thickness of about 0.6 mm into a plate shape.
A flange portion 3 that is bent outward and folded back is formed around the entire upper end of the storage tray 2. This collar part 3
A downwardly bent section 4 is connected to one edge of the . This section 4 has a certain degree of elasticity and can be bent inward. Further, a curled portion 5 that is curled downward into a pipe shape is provided at the tip of this section 4. Elastic bodies 7, 7 made of an elastic material such as rubber are inserted and fixed into the openings 6, 6 at both ends of the curled portion 5. The elastic bodies 7, 7 have semicircular spherical heads 8a, 8a exposed to the outside from the ends of the curled part 5, and leg parts 8b, which are inserted and fixed through the openings 6, 6 of the curled part 5. ，
It is more similar to 8b.

Next, the case body that houses this storage tray 2 will be explained. The case body consists of a lid body 9 and a container body 10.
Each end is connected by a hinge so that it can be opened and closed. A locking mechanism for locking the lid body 9 and the container body 10 in the closed state is provided on each tip surface. A mirror 11 is attached to the lower surface of the lid 9. On the upper surface of the device body 10, a storage recess 12 in which the storage tray 2 is stored and an applicator storage space 14 in which an applicator 13 such as a puff is stored are provided front and rear via a partition 16. . This storage recess 12 is located on the inner wall 12 on the hinge side.
a concave groove 1 into which the curled portion 5 of the storage tray 2 enters;
5 is engraved. This concave groove 15 has a rounded shape that follows the outer shape of the curled portion 5, and the heads 8a, 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 of the curled portion 5 into which it enters.
It is carved narrower than the width between the two. Therefore, when the curled portion 5 is inserted into the groove 15, the elastic bodies 7, 7
The heads 8a, 8a of are elastically abutted against the side walls of the groove 15, and the curled portion 5 is in a state of being pivotally supported.
The storage tray 2 can be easily rotated around the curled portion 5. The length to the inner wall 12b of the storage recess 12 on the opposite side from the groove 15, that is, the side wall of the partition portion 16 that partitions the storage recess 12 and the applicator storage space 14, is the length of the curl portion 5 of the storage tray 2. The length is slightly shorter than the length to the outer wall on the opposite side. Therefore, when the storage tray 2 is installed in the storage recess 12, the section 4 of the storage tray 2 is stored with a slight bend, and the elasticity of the section 4 causes the side wall of the storage tray 2 to bend against the inner wall 12b of the partition portion 16. The storage tray 2 is pressed against the storage tray 2 to prevent it from accidentally falling off. In addition, the partition part 16 allows the user to hang the flange 3 of the storage plate 2 stored in the storage recess 12 with his or her finger to remove the storage plate 2.
Notches 16a, 16a are provided for pushing up.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, the present invention has a section 4 connected to one end of the storage tray 2 formed of thin metal, and a pipe-shaped curled section 5 is provided at the tip of this section 4.
By bringing the curled portion 5 into contact with the groove 15 of the storage recess 12 when installing the storage tray 2, the installation can be carried out smoothly using the groove 15 as a guide.
Moreover, the storage tray 2 is attached and held using the elasticity of the thin metal and the elastic material, but the pieces that are elastically deformed are the sections 4 and the elastic body 7 connected from the flange 3.
7, it does not have any adverse effect on the filled cosmetic 1. Further, when removing the storage tray 2, the notches 16a, 16a are provided so that the storage tray 2 can be easily pushed up.

The storage tray 2 also has a storage recess 12 for storing the curl portion 5.
When the storage tray 2 is inserted into the recessed groove 15, the heads 8a, 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 fixed to the both end faces of the recessed groove 15 elastically abut against the side walls of the recessed groove 15. It can be reliably attached to the position 12.

Furthermore, push up the flange 3 of the storage tray 2 and remove the storage tray 2.
Even if the curled portion 5 is pulled out of the storage recess 12, the heads 8a, 8a of the elastic bodies 7, 7 are elastically abutted and engaged with the recessed groove 15, so even in this state, the curled portion 5 will not be recessed. The storage tray 2 does not come off unless the curled part 5 is pulled out from the groove 15, and there is no chance of the storage tray 2 being accidentally dropped when the storage tray 2 is pulled out.
