In general, a cosmetic compact is configured by accommodating an inner plate filled with a cosmetic material inside an outer container including a container body and a lid. Recently, a type in which the above-mentioned middle plate can be detached by one touch has been proposed. Such a compact has a structure as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. In these figures, reference numeral 21 denotes a shallow box-shaped container body having an open upper surface, and a recess 24 for detaching a one-touch is provided at the end of the inner bottom surface thereof. An L-shaped lever 22 for detaching the one-touch is arranged in the recess 24,
A boundary portion between the L-shaped horizontal action piece 22a and the L-shaped vertical action piece 22b is supported by a shaft 25. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the pressing portion 22c at the upper end of the action piece 22b projects to the upper surface of the middle frame 26a through the notch hole 27 and is movable in the notch hole 27 in the left-right direction shown in the drawing. ing. 23 is the above middle frame 26a
It is an inner plate housed inside. In this compact,
When the pressing portion 22c of the L-shaped lever 22 is pressed downward as shown in FIG. 7, the lever 22 rotates clockwise about the shaft 25, and the action piece 22a pushes up the inner plate 23 upward.
As a result, the inner plate 23 is removed by one touch. Incidentally, 28 is hinge-connected to the container body 21 so that the container body 21
It is a lid that covers.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the above compact, when the compact shakes when being carried or the like, the L-shaped lever 22 shakes up and down around the shaft 25, and the action piece 22a hits the inner bottom surface of the container body 21 to generate a contact sound. Further, the cosmetic powder contained in the inner plate 23 enters the container body 21 through the notch hole 27 formed in the upper surface of the middle frame 26a and is solidified in the recess 24, so that the operation of the L-shaped lever 22 is prevented. The problem of regulation arises. If it is forcibly operated in this state, the L-shaped lever 22 will be broken. Even if such a situation does not occur, a considerable force is applied to the L-shaped lever 22 at the time of one-touch operation, so that material fatigue due to repeated one-touch operation accumulates and eventually breaks. is there.

This invention was made in view of such circumstances,
