 The present invention relates to a refill container that is automatically collapsed and closed by simply rotating the lid slightly when closing the lid.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, various cosmetic compacts have been developed and put into practical use, and in recent years, high-class compacts have become popular. Since such a compact is expensive, it is often used repeatedly by replacing it with a refill cosmetic after the internal cosmetics are exhausted. Such a refill cosmetic is contained in a refill container as shown in FIG. 21, for example. As shown in the figure, this refill container is housed in a container body 40 having an upper surface formed with a recess 40a, a lid 41 for covering the upper surface of the container body 40, and the recess 40a of the container body 40. It is composed of a decorative plate 33, and an engaging portion 44 is formed at the front end portion of the container body 40, a shaft hole 46 is formed at the rear end portion, and the engaging portion 44 is engaged at the front end portion of the lid 41. To form the engaged portion 45, and to form a shaft hole (not shown) at the rear end, and to insert the hinge shaft 47 into both shaft holes 46, the lid body 41 is hingedly connected to the container body 40. It is configured. In the figure, 33a is a cosmetic material, 42 is an adhesive layer provided on the bottom surface of the container body 40, 43 is a through hole formed in the bottom portion of the container body 40, and the through hole 43 is the through hole 43. It is used when taking out the makeup tray 33 from the. When assembling such a refill container, first, the lid body 41 is placed in the rear part of the container body 40 in an open state, and the shaft hole 46 of the container body 40 and the shaft hole of the lid body 41 are aligned with each other. Then, the hinge shaft 47 is inserted into both shaft holes 46 to hinge-connect the lid 41 to the container body 40, and then the decorative plate 33 is housed in the recess 40a of the container body 40 and the adhesive layer 42 is formed. Then, the lid 41 can be rotated and tilted to the upper surface of the container body 40 to engage the engaging portion 44 of the container body 40 with the engaged portion 45 of the lid 41. Done.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the above refill container, at the time of assembly, the lid body 41 is hingedly connected to the rear end of the container body 40, the makeup tray 33 is housed in the container body 40, and then the lid body 41 is rotated. And the engaging portion 44 of the container body 40 and the engaged portion 45 of the lid body 41 must be engaged with each other, which is troublesome. Moreover, since the front end of the container body 40 and the front end of the lid 41 are used to form the engagement means for holding the closed state (that is, the engagement portion 44 and the engaged portion 45), Since the front-rear length of the minute refill container is increased and the decorative plate 33 is housed in the container body 40, the entire refill container is enlarged by the thickness of the container body 40. Furthermore, the engaging means for holding the closed state (that is, the engaging portion 44 and the engaged portion 45) must be formed in the container body 40 and the lid body 41, which complicates the structure.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and when the lid is closed, the lid is automatically tilted to close the lid by simply rotating the lid a little, and the lid is small in size and is for holding the closed state. It is an object of the present invention to provide a refill container having a simple structure without the need for providing an engaging means on the container body and the lid.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, a refill container of the present invention is provided with a makeup plate having a cosmetic material receiving recess formed on the upper surface thereof, and a plurality of lids for appropriately selecting and covering the upper surface of the makeup plate. Each of the lids has an attachment portion formed at an end portion of one side edge different from each other, and an engagement portion is formed inside each attachment portion, which corresponds to the engagement portion of the lid body selected appropriately. An engaged portion that rotatably engages with the engaging portion is formed on a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the decorative plate, and one side edge of each of the lids that is different from the other engages with the engaged portion of the decorative plate when engaging. The structure is such that an elastic body portion is formed that contacts one side portion and presses the lid body toward the decorative plate side by its own elastic force when the lid is closed.

[0006]

That is, in the refill container of the present invention, when assembling the refill container, first, one is appropriately selected from a plurality of lids. Next, the appropriately selected lid is placed in an upright state and placed on one side of the decorative plate corresponding to one side edge of the lid, and then the engaging portion formed on one side edge of the lid is placed. The engaging part of the lid is engaged with the engaged part of the decorative plate by aligning with the engaged part of the decorative plate corresponding to the engaging part. In this engaged state, the elastic body portion provided on the lid body is in contact with one side portion of the decorative dish. After that, the lid is slightly rotated toward the decorative plate. As a result, the lid automatically falls down to the side of the decorative plate and the lid is closed. After the lid is closed, the elastic force of the elastic body portion acts in the opposite direction to the force for opening the lid, so that the closed state is maintained. The procedure of such assembling is the same regardless of which of the plurality of lids is selected. As described above, in the refill container of the present invention, the lid is rotatably connected to the makeup plate when assembled, and the lid is automatically closed by slightly rotating the lid toward the makeup plate. However, this work does not take time. In addition, since there are multiple types of attachments for the lid to one makeup tray, the makeup tray is attached to various refill containers (for example, the lid is attached to the longitudinal end of the makeup tray so that it can be opened and closed in the longitudinal direction). Common parts such as vertical type and horizontal type refill container that can be opened and closed in the orthogonal direction by attaching a lid to the end in the direction that intersects the longitudinal direction directly It can be planned. In addition, since the lid is attached to the decorative plate, the engaging means for maintaining the closed state is formed by using the front end of the container body and the front end of the lid as in the conventional example. It is possible to prevent the front-rear length of the refill container from becoming long and the refill container from becoming large in size by approximately the thickness of the container body that houses the makeup plate. Furthermore, the engaging means for holding the closed state, which is required in the conventional example, can be omitted, and the structure is simplified.

Next, this invention will be described in detail based on embodiments.
