Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a slide lock of a container, and more particularly to a slide lock for locking and unlocking a lid by sliding a slider in a container with a lid that can be opened and closed.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, containers made of, for example, plastic and formed by opening and closing a lid using a pivot member have been used in various fields.

By the way, in this type of container, it is difficult to lock the lid accurately and accurately, a complicated mechanism cannot be applied, and a locking device separate from the container is used. If it is attached, there are some disadvantages such as the risk of damage to that part.

[0004]

[The purpose of the device]

 In consideration of such problems, the object of the present invention is that the container can be made of the same material, has a simple structure and installation, can be locked securely, and has a low risk of damage. To provide.

[0005]

【Example】

 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, a container 10 made of plastic can be freely attached to a lower body 12 and a suitable pivot member 14 such as a leaf spring or a hinge on the rear side wall of the body 12. It consists of a lid 16 attached so that it can be opened and closed. The slide lock of the present invention comprises a slider 22 which locks or unlocks the body 12 and the lid 16 by sliding them with the fingers along the front side walls 18 and 20 of the body 12 and the lid 16. To do.

As shown in FIG. 1, the slider 22 has a first protruding edge 26 that fits into a first groove 24 provided in a central portion of the front side wall 18 of the main body 12 and a center of the front side wall 20 of the lid body 16. It is a plate-shaped small member made of the same material as the container 10 having a second groove 28 provided in the section and a second protruding edge 30 that fits.

A portion of the front side wall 18 of the main body 12 to which the slider 22 is attached is formed on a protruding wall 32 having a width substantially matching the width of the slider 22, and a second groove 28 of the lid 16 is formed along the top thereof. A third groove 34 is formed which can be communicated with and through which the second protruding edge 30 of the slider 22 can slide.

On the other hand, on the front side wall 20 of the lid body 16, a notch portion 36 is provided at a position corresponding to the protruding wall 32 of the main body 12 so as not to interfere with the protruding wall 32 when the lid body 16 is opened and closed. Is formed.

A U-shaped notch 38 is formed in the projecting wall 32 of the main body 12 so as to act as a spring, and a hemispherical portion that slightly projects outward is provided at the center of the notch 38. It serves as a stopper 40 for the idder 22.

As shown in FIG. 3, a guide groove 42 is provided on the back surface of the slider 22 so as not to interfere with the stopper 40 when sliding the slider 22 along the grooves 24 and 28 of the main body 12 and the lid 16. Hemispherical recesses 44 and 46 can be provided at both ends of the guide groove 42 so that the stopper 40 does not rest and the slider 22 does not move freely.

[0012]

[Function and effect of the device]

 The slide lock of the container of the present invention can be easily understood from the structure described in detail above. When the slider 22 is positioned so as to overlap the protruding wall 32 of the main body 12 with fingers, The lid 16 can be freely opened and closed with respect to the main body 12.

Next, when moving from that position to the other, the second projecting edge 30 at the top of the slider 22 moves from the third groove 34 provided in the projecting wall 32 to the second groove 28 of the lid body 16. Then, the first groove 24 of the main body 12 and the second groove 28 of the lid 16 are bridged by the slider 22, and the main body 12 and the lid 16 are locked by the slider 22.

The structure of the slide lock of the present invention is extremely simple, and since the main body 12, the lid body 16 and the slider 22 of the container 10 can be made of plastic, a metal or other separate locking device can be used. It is possible to lock the lid 16 on the main body 12 or to unlock the lid 16 to open and close freely by simply sliding the slider 22.
