Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Industrial field of application" The present invention relates to a cosmetic compact container.

"Prior Art" A compact container usually has a container body with an upper surface opening and a lid body that pivotally attaches a lid rear portion to the container body rear portion to openably and closably close the container body upper surface. The hook that is hung from the front of the lid is engaged with the lower surface of the engaging ridge attached to the container to keep the lid closed, and the rotator is pivotally mounted in the recess formed in the front wall of the container body. Then, when the lower part of the front surface of the rotator is pushed rearward, a part of the rotator pushes up the lid body or the lower end of the hook to disengage the hook from the engaging ridge. .

"Problems to be solved by the invention" A conventional compact container in which a hook pushing-up rotator is pivotally mounted in a recess formed in the front wall of the container main body has a high precision in molding the pivoting part. However, if the pivot shaft and the shaft hole are fitted to each other too tightly, it becomes difficult to rotate the rotator, and defective products are likely to occur, and manufacturing is not easy.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a compact container that is easy to manufacture and inexpensive by simplifying the structures of the engaging and disengaging means of the lid body and the container body.

"Means for Solving the Problems" The middle portion of the front wall 3 is cut out to form a recess 5 in the front surface of the bottom wall 2 which is continuous with the cutout portion 4, and an insertion hole 7 in the rear surface of the recess 5. A perforated container body 1, a drum 9 containing cosmetics 10 fitted in the container body, and a lid body 12 pivotally attached to the rear edge of the container body 1 to close the upper surface of the container body.
An elastic ring 16b from the rear surface of the front half plate portion 16c, an insertion portion 16a from the rear surface of the elastic ring, and horizontal plate portions 16 projecting rearward from the rear surface of the elastic ring, respectively, and the insertion portion 16a is inserted into the insertion hole 7. The horizontal plate portion 16 is fitted and fitted.
A fingertip plate portion 17 is erected from the front end of the inside of the notch portion 4 and is provided with an integrally molded operator 15. The compact container includes a rear surface of the hanging plate portion 13 from the front end of the lid body 12 and the Engaging means 14 and 23 that engage with each other to maintain the closed state are provided on the front surface of the finger contact plate portion 17, and the retreating gap capable of releasing the engagement of these engaging means. 22 for finger pad
Deformation allowances 24a, 24b of the elastic ring 16b at the time of retreating the finger contact plate portion are provided between the drum 17 and the drum 9 and between the left and right side surfaces of the recess 5, respectively.

"Operation" When the front surface of the finger contact plate portion 17 is pushed backward against the elasticity of the elastic ring 16b from the state shown in FIG. 1, the engagement between the finger contact plate portion and the engaging means 23, 14 of the lid 12 is released, The lid can be opened. When pushed backward, the elastic ring 16b is bulged and deformed in both left and right directions, but the deformation allowances 24a, 24b shown in the second figure prevent contact between the elastic ring and the left and right side surfaces of the recess 5.

Next, when the finger contact plate 17 is released, the finger contact plate is returned to the original position by the restoring force of the elastic ring 16b, and when the lid is closed in this state, the engaging means 14 and 23 are engaged. , Keep the lid closed.

"Example" 1 is a container body in which a peripheral wall is erected from a peripheral edge of a bottom wall 2.
The container body has a cutout portion 4 at the middle portion of the front wall 3 of the peripheral wall, a bottom wall 2 continuous with the cutout portion, a front surface and a recessed portion 5 of an opening on the front surface of the front portion, and a rear surface of the recessed portion. Insertion holes 7 are respectively provided in the middle portions. Further, in the illustrated example, the engaging projection 6 is projected from the front part of the bottom surface of the recess 5, and the guide grooves 8a and 8b are formed in the left and right side walls of the recess.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a cosmetic-containing drum 10 fitted into the container body 1, the front wall of which is indicated by reference numeral 11 in the accompanying drawings.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a lid body that is pivotally attached to the rear portion of the container body 1 to close the upper surface of the container body, and an engaging protrusion 14 is provided on the rear surface of the hanging plate portion 13 from the front portion of the lid body.

Reference numeral 15 is an actuator attached to the container body 1. The operator is constructed by erecting a finger contact plate portion 17 in the cutout portion 4 from the front end of a horizontal portion plate 16 fitted in the recess 5 and integrally molding these both plate portions.

The horizontal plate portion 16 has an elastic ring 16b projecting rearward from the rear surface intermediate portion of the front half plate portion 16c, and an insertion portion 16a protruding rearward from the elastic ring rear surface intermediate portion, and the insertion portion is located inside the insertion hole 7 of the recessed portion. The front half plate portion 16c is formed so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction against the elasticity of the elastic ring 16b. The elastic ring is provided with a size such that deformation allowances 24a, 24b corresponding to the lateral deformation in the left and right directions when the front half plate portion slides are formed between the recess and the left and right side surfaces.

In the illustrated example, guide ridges 19a, 19b are projected on both left and right side portions of the front half plate portion 16c and both left and right outer side portions of the guide plate portions 18a, 18b protruding rearward from the left and right side portions of the front half plate portion front surface. The projections are fitted in the guide grooves 8a and 8b, respectively. Further, in order to prevent the horizontal plate portion 16 from coming off, the engaging projection 6 is loosely fitted into the through hole 20 projecting in the front half plate portion 16c with a gap 21 for sliding the front half plate portion. Good.

Further, the finger contact plate portion 17 described above is provided with the engaging protrusion 23 at the upper part of the front surface thereof, and the engagement protrusion 14 and the engaging protrusion 14 of the hanging plate portion described above are engaged with each other so that the lid body The closed state is maintained, and the finger contact plate portion retracting gap 22 is arranged between the drum 9 and the drum 9 so that the engagement can be released by the retracting.

[Advantages of the Invention] As described above, the invention of the present application includes the finger contact plate portion 17 standing upright from the front end of the horizontal plate portion 16 fitted in the recess 5 and the elastic ring 16b.
It is configured to release the engagement of the engaging means 14 and 23 of the front surface of the finger pad and the front part of the lid by pushing it backwards against the elasticity of the container. Since there is no rotor for pushing up the engaging hook, defective products are less likely to occur, and the operator 15 as the means for releasing the engagement between the container body and the lid is provided with the horizontal plate portion 16 and the finger contact plate portion. Since it is integrally molded with the container 17, the number of parts as a whole of the container can be reduced, and the operator only pushes the horizontal plate portion 16 into the recess 5 to insert the insertion portion 16a at the rear end of the horizontal plate portion. Since it can be easily fitted by being fitted into the insertion hole 7, the manufacturing cost can be remarkably reduced. Further, since the engagement can be released only by pushing the finger contact plate portion 17 backward, the lid opening operation becomes extremely easy,
Between the left and right side surfaces of the recess 5 and the elastic ring 16b,
Since the deformation allowances 24a, 24b of the elastic ring are provided, the elastic ring is not pressed against the both side surfaces of the concave portion by the backward pushing of the finger contact plate portion to generate frictional resistance, and therefore the engagement can be released with a slight force. Become.
