Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a cosmetic compact having a front clasp portion with a push button for unlocking the clasp.

``Prior art'' As is well known, this type of compact is used for cosmetic dishes,
In addition, if the puff plate is attached, a recess is provided in the front part where the puff plate clasp will be placed, and the top surface of the puff plate is in contact with the back surface of the front of the lid, and the required space is provided behind the recess so that the push button can be pressed. The lower part of this push button is pushed in from the front and rotated vertically when the clasp is unlocked, and this rotation pushes up the front of the lid and unlocks the clasp.

"Problems to be Solved by the Invention" According to the push-button method described above, the lock can be easily unlocked with a light operating force, which is convenient. However, when the push button is pushed in, the clasp is unlocked and the lid is left in a half-open state, so if the push button hits another object while the compact is being carried in a handbag, etc., it will activate and the compact will open half-open.
There is a concern that cosmetics may become contaminated with dirt in the bag. Furthermore, since the push button is pivoted with a certain amount of play, there is a problem in that it swings and makes a rattling sound when being carried or handled.

In this invention, a slide piece that can be slid in the left and right directions is attached to the push button for unlocking the clasp, and this slide piece is placed behind the push button, and the push button is constantly pressed to the front side, and the push button is locked depending on the slide position. Furthermore, it is an object of the present invention to obtain a cosmetic compact in which an elastic locking piece for releasing the lock is extended to prevent the push button from being inadvertently moved and swinging.

"Means for Solving Problems" In the present invention, in a cosmetic compact in which a push button 2 for unlocking the clasp is pivotally provided in a front recess 1, the push button 2 is attached to at least one side edge of a front plate 3. A slide piece 5 is provided on the front plate 3 of the push button 2 and has members 5a and 5b along the front and back sides of the front plate 3, and is slidable in the left and right directions. An elastic locking piece 7 is provided, which presses the push button 2 toward the front side from the back member 5b of the slide piece 5, and whose free end 6 is located in the space behind the protrusion 4 to lock the push button 2 from being pressed.
When the clasp is unlocked, the slide piece 5 is slid to move the free end 6 of the elastic locking piece 7 from behind the protrusion 4 to behind the front plate 3, and the push button 2 is released from the push-in lock. I try to do that.

``Function'' In the above, normally the stopper is locked and the lid 8 is kept in the closed state as shown in FIGS. 1a and 1b. At this constant time, the slide piece 5 is
Position it approximately at the center of the push button 2 as shown in the figure. In this position, the free end 6 of the elastic locking piece 7 is behind the protrusion 4 of the push button 2 and fills the space behind the protrusion 4, so the push button 2 cannot be pushed in and the clasp is released. The lock and opening operations are locked.

For decoration, slide the slide piece 5 to the left as shown in FIG. Release the push-in lock.
Therefore, after this, it is only necessary to push the push button 2 against the elastic locking piece 7 as shown in FIG. This allows the front part of the lid 8 to be pushed up and the clasp to be unlocked.

However, in the above, the push button 2 is the elastic locking piece 7.
Since it is constantly pressed to the front by the reaction force of

``Example'' The cosmetic compact of the present invention has a slide piece 5 attached to the push button 2 for unlocking the clasp so that it can slide in the left and right direction, and the push button 2 is pressed toward the front side.
