Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] "Industrial application field" This case concerns compact containers for cosmetics.

``Prior Art'' Compact cosmetic containers usually have a container body and a lid that opens and closes the top of the container body pivoted at each rear edge, and an engagement part attached to the front surface of the container body is connected from the front surface of the lid body. When the vertical hook is engaged to maintain the closed state of the lid relative to the container body, and the finger hooks provided on the front surfaces of the container body and the lid are pushed in the opposite direction, the engaging portion and the hook are engaged. It is provided so that the lid can be opened by disengaging the lid.

By the way, the container body and the lid are each integrally molded from a synthetic resin material, but when they are molded, they are injected into a mold in a high temperature molten state and cooled to form a product, so the engaging part and the lid are molded together. It was difficult to achieve precision in the engaging portion, and as a result, the engagement was often too strong. In order to eliminate these drawbacks, recently a rotator has been pivoted to the front wall of the container body,
When the lower part of the rotator is pushed backward, a push-up plate protruding from the rear surface of the rotor pushes up a hook or the like hanging vertically from the lid, thereby engaging the container body and the lid. There are known devices that are designed to remove the

``Problems to be solved by the invention'' A rotator is pivotally mounted on the front surface of the container body, and when the lower part of the rotor is pushed in, a push-up plate that protrudes rearward from the rear surface of the rotor is moved to the lid. Conventional compact containers are designed to open the lid by pushing up a hook that hangs down from the front of the container body and engages with an engaging element on the front of the container body. Since it has to be pivoted to both left and right wall surfaces of a recess provided in the front wall of the container body, it has been impossible to reduce the height of the container body's peripheral wall very much.

This proposal eliminates the above drawbacks.

"Means for solving the problem" The container body 1 and the lid 2 are pivotally connected at each rear edge, and the engaging strip 3 is attached to the front wall 5 of the container body.
In a compact cosmetic container in which a hook 4 hanging down from the front of the lid is engaged to maintain the closed state of the lid, a container is provided on one side of the front wall 2a of the container body on the front surface, top surface, and side surface of the front wall. A notch 6 that opens is provided, and a rotator 7 is placed in the notch, and the base end 7 of the rotator is set at the central end of the front wall 5 of the container body.
It is pivoted by a pin 8 so as to be horizontally rotatable about a, and a slope 9 rising upward and rearward from the rear upper surface is attached to the rear of the base end, and a lid body is attached to the bottom of the slope. By keeping the lower end rear edges of the front wall 2a in contact with or close to each other, and rotating the rotor tip 7b forward about the pin from this state, the above-mentioned slope pushes up the lid front wall 2a. The slope is formed so that the hook can be disengaged from the engagement strip 3.

"Operation" From the state shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the tip 7b of the rotator 7 is moved forward by rotating it around the pin 8 at the proximal end as shown in FIGS. 1C and 2. When the rotator is moved to , the slope 9 of the rotator pushes up the front wall 2a of the lid body, disengages the hook 4 that engages with the engagement strip 3 on the front wall 5 of the container body, and the lid body Enables opening.

When closing the lid, return the rotator to its original position and press down the lid 2 against the container body 1, and the hook will engage with the engagement strip 3 to maintain the lid closed state. .

``Embodiment'' 1 is a container body, 2 is a lid body, and these are pivotally connected at each rear edge. In addition, there is an engaging strip 3 on the front wall of the container body.
A hook 4 hanging down from the front of the lid engages with the engagement strip to maintain the lid in its closed state.

A notch 6 is provided on one side of the front wall 5 of the container body, which opens to the front, top, and side of the front wall. In addition, the rotator 7 is placed in the notch, with the end of the rotator on the center side of the container body front wall 5 being the base end.
It is pivoted by a pin 8 to allow horizontal rotation around a. Further, a slope 9 rising upward and rearward from the upper surface of the rear portion is attached to the rear portion of the base end portion. As shown in FIG. 1B, the slope is provided so that the lower part of the slope contacts or approaches the rear edge of the lower end of the front wall 2a of the lid body, and from this state, the rotor 7 is rotated about the pin 8. By moving the tip 7b forward, the slope 9 pushes up the front wall 2a of the lid body, as shown in FIG. Form.

"Effects of the invention" As described above, the present invention provides a notch 6 on one side of the front wall of the container body that opens on the front, top, and side surfaces, and inserts the rotor 7 into the notch. Doko's
The front wall 5 of the container main body is pivotally connected by a pin 8 to be horizontally rotatable around the base end with the central end thereof as the base end, and is attached to the rear of the base end from the top surface of the rear part upward to the rear. Since it is only necessary to attach an ascending slope 9 and bring the rear edge of the lower end into contact with or close to the front wall 2a of the lid body at the lower part of the slope, the rotator can be mounted even if the height of the front wall of the container body is low. If possible, it does not matter even if the container is thin, and by rotating the rotator 7 whose base end is pivoted about its pin 8, the slope 9 attached to the base end of the rotor can be rotated. Since the front wall of the lid body is pushed up to disengage the engagement strip and the hook 4,
The engagement can be easily removed with small force.
