Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cosmetics compact container, and more particularly to a cosmetics compact container for storing powder cosmetics.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is a compact makeup container for storing powder cosmetics, which has a storage recess provided in the main body of a container fitted with a drum for filling powder cosmetics. In addition, this drum covers the top opening with a mesh to prevent the scattering of cosmetics, and at the time of use, the cosmetics protruding from the mesh are adhered to the puff surface to make the cosmetic particles uniform, and a large amount of cosmetics at a time. To prevent it from adhering to the puff.

Initially, this mesh is formed into a mesh dish and placed on the upper surface of the powder filled in the drum. Further, the puff is placed on this mesh dish, and the puff is taken out at the time of use. It was pressed against the upper surface of the mesh and used. However, since the mesh plate is simply placed on the powder, the mesh plate itself is buried in the powder due to vibrations during transportation of the container, which is extremely difficult to use. In consideration of such a point, containers disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-161908 or Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-14973 have been proposed.

The former has a mesh body (mesh) having a thick edge portion on the outer periphery, and this thick edge portion is connected to a fitting portion sandwiched between a drum and a container body through an elastic body to form a mesh. When the puff is pressed from above the body, the expandable body extends and the mesh body can move downward. Therefore, when not in use, the mesh body can be positioned above the powder, and the above inconvenience can be eliminated.

In the latter case, an annular frame is vertically movably inserted into the container body to hold a mesh plate (mesh) at the peripheral edge of the frame, and the lower portion of the peripheral edge of the mesh is substantially downwardly moved. The elastic legs made of flexible protrusions protruding in a V shape are integrally attached. This container can also solve the above-mentioned inconvenience.

[0006]

However, these containers still leave room for various improvements. For example, in the former, when the mesh body is pushed down, the stretchable portion located on the drum upper surface locally expands, and when the mesh body is released from the pressure, the stretchable portion contracts and returns to its original state.
In addition, since the stretchable portion is bent at a right angle at the upper edge of the drum and stretched while being rubbed, the stretchable portion is too heavy to be durable.

Further, in the latter, since the frame is supported by the C-shaped elastic legs, the direction of the force applied by the pressing when the elastic legs are spread and pushed down by the mesh plates is different. The legs are hard to spread because they hang in a direction close to the contact surface of the legs, and when the drum is circular, the lower ends of the legs must be rotated and spread out, which makes smooth pressing down anyway. .

Further, when the mesh tray is pushed down, the elastic legs may be entangled with each other, and the smoothness of the operation is also lacking in this respect. In this case, the entanglement can be prevented by making the opening angle of each pair small, but on the other hand, the above-described spread of the legs becomes extremely difficult.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional container, and does not have the disadvantage that the mesh is buried in the powder unlike the conventional container, and moreover, the mesh can be pushed down and returned smoothly, and the durability is improved. It proposes a container having excellent properties.
