BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure of a compact container which is a portable cosmetic container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional compact container is basically composed of a drum for accommodating cosmetics, a container into which the drum is fitted, and a lid which is hingedly connected to the container.

In contrast to the compact container having such a structure, the compact container is a container for storing and holding expensive cosmetics, and the container for storing the cosmetics is used because it is a container for carrying. In order not to deteriorate the quality as much as possible or prevent it from being scattered wastefully, a certain level of sealing ability is required, and a high ability to mechanically retain the cosmetics from the impact applied from the outside is also required. There is a demand for easier operation.

As a means for answering the above request,
Providing a short cylinder piece on the inner surface of the lid that fits shallowly into the drum body assembly recess of the container that fits and holds the cosmetic body directly, and fits this short cylinder piece into the drum body assembly recess. According to the above, there is one that achieves the sealing and holding of the cosmetic material in the closed state and the prevention of scattering.

In addition, the assembly of the drum body to the container,
There is a structure in which an adhesive body having a cushioning ability is bonded and assembled, and the cushioning ability of the adhesive body is configured to mechanically protect the cosmetics from an impact applied from the outside of the container.

Further, a spring material is attached to a hinge structure for hinge-connecting the container and the lid, or an elastic material is arranged on the contact surface portion between the container and the lid. There is a structure in which a lid in a closed state is rotated in an opening direction by an elastic force so that the container can be easily opened.

[0007]

Certainly, the above-mentioned prior art exhibits some effects individually, but in the case of, for example, one in which cosmetics are hermetically housed and held, the degree of hermetic sealing is not always sufficient. However, there is a problem that the powdered cosmetic material leaks out of the container and stains the outer surface of the container and surrounding articles.

Further, it is impossible to completely prevent deterioration of the quality of the stored cosmetics due to early loss of volatile components in the stored cosmetics or conversely moisture absorption of the cosmetics. There was a problem to say.

Further, the one that mechanically holds the stored and held cosmetics from the external impact by utilizing the cushioning effect exerts its effect to some extent, but this one exclusively exhibits the cushioning effect. However, there is a problem that the other requirements, that is, the securing of airtightness and the ease of operation cannot be obtained.

In particular, in the case where a spring member is provided in the hinge portion for the purpose of easy operation, and in the case where the elastic material is projected at one place of the contact surface between the container and the lid, Instead of being able to obtain the ease of opening the container, its elasticity reduces the ability to store and store the cosmetics in the closed state, and thus another dedicated structure for achieving the closed storage and retention of the cosmetics. There is a problem that it is necessary to provide a part.

The above-mentioned problems in the prior art are inevitably caused because measures are taken individually for the above-mentioned matters required for the compact container.

Therefore, the present invention was devised in order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, in which the elastic force exerted by one elastic material is exerted on the sealing action, the cushioning action and the elastic action. This is a technical issue, and it is an object of the present invention to exert an excellent retaining ability for the cosmetics stored and retained.

[0013]

Means for Solving the Problems The means for solving the above technical problem is to provide an upper elastic portion and a lower elastic portion at the upper end of the outer peripheral surface of a cylindrical wall of a bottomed cylindrical body with a gap therebetween. Have a drum body for storing cosmetics in which a ring-shaped elastic material cushion body is assembled, which are opposed to each other. With the drum body fitted and held, the drum body is mounted and held by the lower elastic portion of the cushion body. And a container having a holding piece for holding the drum body in pressure contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cushion body. The container is hinged to be openable and closable to the upper elastic portion of the cushion body in the closed posture. It has a lid body in which a pressing cylinder piece that is pressed tightly from above is provided around the lower surface.

That is, the cushion body is firmly assembled in a wound form around the outer periphery of the opening end of the drum body, the drum body is assembled and held in the container through the cushion body, and in the closed state of the compact container, The pressing cylinder piece of the lid body presses the cushion body against the supporting piece of the container.

[0015]

In the closed posture, the pressing cylinder piece of the lid body presses its lower end closely against the upper elastic portion of the cushion body, so that the drum body is sealed by the lid body. But,
It is the upper elastic portion of the cushion body made of an elastic material that the pressing cylinder piece of the lid closely presses, so the close contact of the lower end of the pressing cylinder piece with the cushion body becomes extremely strong and reliable.
As a result, the sealed storage and holding of the cosmetic material stored in the drum body can be reliably and firmly achieved and maintained.

Further, in this closed state, as described above, the cushion body in which the lower end of the pressing tube piece of the lid is in contact with the upper elastic portion which is easily elastically deformed is the lower elastic portion which is easily elastically deformed. Since it is mounted on the support piece of the container, it is elastically deformed in the upper and lower elastic parts by the pressing force from the pressing cylinder piece. Therefore, the elastic force of the elastically deformed cushion body rotates the lid body in the opening direction. To make it work,
When the function of holding the closed posture of the compact container in the closed posture is released, the lid body in the closed posture is pivotally displaced in the opening direction by the action of the elastic force of the cushion body to be in a slightly opened state. It is extremely easy to open the lid.

Further, regardless of whether the compact container is opened or closed, the drum body is assembled and held in the container body composed of the container and the lid body via the cushion body having an excellent cushioning effect, so that the drum body is externally connected to the container body. Even if a mechanical shock acts, the shock acting on the container body is absorbed by the cushion body and does not strongly act on the drum body. Will be fully protected from the impact of.

The holding of the drum body assembled to the container is achieved and maintained by the holding piece of the container which is in pressure contact with the outer peripheral surface of the cushion body, so that the mechanical holding force of the holding piece directly acts on the drum body. Therefore, an external impact does not act on the drum body via this holding piece,
The cushioning effect of the cushion body is exerted more effectively.

[0019]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Main body 2 of drum body 1 in the shape of a short cylinder with a bottom
Has a shape in which a cylindrical wall 4 is continuously provided on the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 3, and an outer brim-shaped flange 5 is bent and continuously provided at the upper end of the cylindrical wall 4 to form the drum body 1.

The cushion member 6 made of an elastic material has an upper elastic portion 7 extending obliquely outward and upward from the upper end portion of the outer peripheral surface of the ring-shaped main body portion having a square cross section, and from the lower end portion of the outer peripheral surface of the main body portion. The lower elastic portion 8 extends obliquely downward and outward, and the main body portion thereof is locked to the flange 5 and slightly tightened on the outer periphery of the upper end portion of the cylindrical wall 4 of the drum body 1. It is assembled by winding.

Since the cushion body 6 has the upper elastic portion 7 and the lower elastic portion 8 extending therefrom, a large amount of elastic deformation of the upper and lower elastic portions 7, 8 can be obtained, which results in a large cushioning action. The elastic contact sealing effect and the large opening rotation displacement amount with respect to the lid body 16 can be provided.

A container 10 having a wall plate 12 provided upright on the peripheral edge of a bottom plate 11 has a wall portion 12 having a lower portion protruding inwardly and having a wall thickness, and a support piece 13 is formed on a stepped inner peripheral surface. To form
In addition, a holding piece 14 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the upper portion in a circumferential shape.

Therefore, the lower elastic portion 8 of the cushion body 6 is
Is mounted on the supporting piece 13 which is this step, and holds the drum body 1 in a posture of being lifted from the bottom plate 11 of the container 10. The holding piece 14 is pressed against the center of the outer peripheral surface of the cushion body 6 By the resistance force, the assembling of the drum body 1 with respect to the container 10 is maintained, and a gap 9 is formed between the upper and lower elastic portions 7, 8 to elastically deform the upper and lower elastic portions 7, 8. is doing.

Since the holding piece 14 is only in pressure contact with the central portion of the outer peripheral surface of the cushion body 6, the force for assembling and holding the combination of the drum body 1 and the cushion body 6 in the container 10 is by no means sufficient. Although it is difficult to say, when the compact container is in the closed state, the cushion body 6 is sandwiched between the container body 10 and the lid body 16 by the upper and lower elastic portions 7 and 8, so that the holding piece 14 is used. Container 10 of drum body 1
Assembling and holding force to the drum body 1 by the holding piece 14 is not required at all in actual use.
A low holding power for does not cause any inconvenience.

At the upper end of the outer peripheral surface of the front end of the wall plate 12, there is provided a locking strip 15 for holding the compact container in the closed posture.

The lid 16 in which the peripheral wall 18 is suspended from the peripheral edge of the top wall 17 is the assembly plate 20 which is further suspended from the rear end of the peripheral wall 18, and the hinge 21 is attached to the rear end of the wall plate 12 of the container 10. A press-fitting tubular piece 19 having a short tubular shape is hung around the lower surface of the top wall 17 on the lower surface of the top wall 17 at the peripheral edge facing the upper elastic portion 7 of the cushion body 6.

Further, at the lower end of the inner peripheral surface at the front end of the peripheral wall 18, a locking projection 22 for locking the locking strip 15 of the wall plate 12 from below is provided so as to project the lid 16 for the container 10. Maintain a closed position.

[0028]

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has the following effects. Since the drum body is fitted into the container through the cushion body, the cushion body absorbs this impact even if an external impact is applied, such as when the container is removed, so it was stored in the drum body. It is possible to prevent inconveniences such as cracking of the solid cosmetic material, and thus it is possible to safely protect the mechanically fragile cosmetic material from an external impact.

Since the drum body is closed by the lid body via the cushion body, the elastic force of the cushion body can be effectively utilized for the sealing action, whereby the airtightness in the container is surely maintained, and for example, Achieves suitable storage and retention of cosmetics without scattering powdered cosmetics from the gaps or releasing the scent, without polluting the surroundings and without causing deterioration of the quality of the cosmetics. it can.

By simply releasing the lock with the container, the lid body is slightly lifted from the container due to the elasticity of the cushion body, which facilitates the opening operation, and the compact container is easy and safe to handle. Will be things.
