Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a compact container in which a container and a lid are hinged together, and the container is provided with a cosmetic storage chamber and a cosmetic storage chamber such as a puff.

[Prior Art] A conventional compact container has a mirror fixed to the back surface of the lid so that the mirror surface faces the container. In such a compact container, the cosmetics may scatter and stain the mirror surface, so it is necessary to cover the cosmetics storage chamber. Various types of covers have been proposed for this purpose, such as those in which a thin plate made of plastic sheet is placed on the top surface of the cosmetics storage chamber, and those in which the inner lid is hinged to the inner tray for storing cosmetics. ing.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] The cover of the former type is easily lost because the thin plate must be removed from the container when the cosmetic is used. The latter type of cover has a complicated structure and is inevitably expensive.

This invention was made in view of the above, and
To provide a compact container whose mirror surface is not soiled even if the cosmetic storage chamber is not covered.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention is a compact container in which a container and a lid are hingedly connected at the rear, a lid fixing mirror is provided on a part of the inner surface of the lid, and a lid fixing mirror is provided on a part of the inner surface of the lid.
A mirror support plate is hinged to the lid so that it can be folded back along the inner surface of the lid, a mirror is provided on the inner surface of the mirror support plate, and when the mirror support plate is closed, the second
The mirror support plate covers the lid fixed mirror so that the mirrors overlap, and when the mirror support plate is opened, the two mirrors are exposed from the inner surface of the lid.

[Function] When the compact container is not in use, keep the mirror support plate closed. Thereby, the mirror support plate covers the lid-fixed mirror so that the two mirrors overlap. Therefore, the cosmetics and the like stored inside the compact container do not adhere to the lid-fixing mirror or the mirror on the inner surface of the mirror support plate.

And when using a compact container,
Open the lid from the container and leave the mirror support plate open.
As a result, the lid fixed mirror and the mirror fixed to the mirror support plate are exposed and can be used for makeup.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 4.

1 is a compact container according to the present invention, in which a container 10 and a lid 30 are rotatably connected via a hinge 32 at the rear of each. 34
is an engagement member protruding downward at the front edge of the lid 30, and is a recess 1 provided at the front edge of the container 10.
The lid 3 is engaged with the engagement protrusion 14 located on the rear wall of the lid 3.
0 closed state is maintained. Reference numeral 16 denotes a hook piece, which is pivotally mounted within the recess 12 so as to rotate in the front-rear direction, and rotates rearward to push up the lower end of the front edge of the lid 30 to release the engagement.

Reference numeral 20 denotes a refill tray for storing cosmetics, and is arranged on the rear side of the storage recess 18 of the container 10. The curled attachment part 22 at the rear end of the refill plate 20 is fitted into the attachment recess 19 provided at the rear edge of the container 10, so that the refill plate 20
is held in the container 10. 18 is storage recess 2
It is an engaging protrusion provided on the side wall of the refill plate 4, and engages with the upper edge of the refill plate 20 to fix the refill plate 20.

Numerals 36 and 36 are protrusions disposed inside the lid 30, and extend over the front and rear edges of the lid 30 on both sides. At approximately the center of the protrusions 36, 36, hinge protrusions 38, 38 are provided oppositely so as to protrude inward. Also, 39 is a concave mirror,
It is fixed on the inner surface of the rear side of the lid 30.

Reference numeral 40 denotes a plane mirror, which is disposed between the protrusions 36, 36 so that the concave mirror 39 and its mirror surfaces face each other. Reference numeral 42 denotes a mirror support plate that holds the plane mirror 40, and the plane mirror is fixed to a recessed portion of the mirror support plate 42 with an adhesive. The mirror support plate 42 has a hinge 4 provided on the front side thereof.
4 and the hinge protrusions 38, 38,
It is rotatably supported with respect to the lid 30. 4
Numerals 6 and 46 are protrusions provided on both rear side edges of the mirror support plate 42, and engage with the engaging recesses 35 and 37 arranged inside the protrusions 36 and 36, respectively. These engaging recesses 35 and 37 are provided oppositely on the front side and the rear side of the protrusions 36 and 36, and the mirror support plate 4
2 is rotated to the front side and the rear side, the mirror support plate 42 is fixed at each position.

In this embodiment, when the compact container is not in use, the protrusions 46, 46 are engaged with the engagement recess 37 on the rear side, and the plane mirror 40 is opposed to the inner surface of the lid 30. When using the compact container 1, insert the protrusions 46, 46 into the engagement recess 3 on the front side.
5. In this way, the plane mirror 40
This is convenient because both mirror surfaces of the concave mirror 39 are open so that two types of mirrors can be used.

Note that it goes without saying that the concave mirror 39 may be replaced with a plane mirror. Providing these concave mirrors 39 or plane mirrors on the back surface of the lid 30 is convenient for use of the compact container, but is not essential. Alternatively, the plane mirror 40 may be formed of plastic or the like, provided with a hinge portion, and directly hinged without using the mirror support plate 42.

Furthermore, the protrusions 36, 36 in the embodiment include hinge protrusions 38, 38 and engagement recesses 35,
37, the protrusions 36, 36 can be omitted when these are provided on the side edge or back surface of the lid 30.

In this embodiment, the mirror support plate 42 is located above the refill dish 20 when the compact container is not in use. Although it is not essential to do this, it is convenient because the height of the space in the puff storage chamber becomes larger.

In the above embodiment, the puff storage chamber and the cosmetic storage chamber are arranged in the front-rear direction, but they may be arranged in the left-right direction. In this case, it is preferable to support the mirror support plate 42 on the front side and the rear side inside the lid 30 and rotate the mirror in the left and right direction.

[Effect of the invention] With the compact container of the invention, when the mirror support plate is closed, the mirror support plate allows
The two mirrors are protected from cosmetics, so they don't get dirty.

Moreover, when using a compact container, by opening the mirror support plate, two mirrors are exposed and can be used for makeup.
