Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a compact that is opened by a push button, and more specifically, a recess is formed in the opening of the main body, and a lid opening member having a taper is provided in the recess, and the lid is opened. This invention relates to a compact in which the lid is pushed up using the taper of the member to release the engagement between the locking claw of the main body and the protrusion of the lid.

-Compact containers for cosmetics, puffs, etc.
A structure consisting of a container body and a lid that is hinged to one edge of the container body to open and close the container body, or a so-called mouthpiece structure that temporarily fixes the lid to the container body when the lid is closed. Various methods have been proposed so far.

For example, a recess is formed in the opening of the main body, and a push button with a tapered head is pushed into the recess toward the hinge to open the lid. be.

In order to cause the taper to have the effect of lifting the lid, the compact is provided with a taper that is higher on the outside and lower on the inside.

However, in the above configuration, when the push button is pressed, the lid is pushed in a direction that deepens the engagement between the locking pawl and the protrusion, and an unreasonable force is also applied to the hinge, resulting in large locking friction. However, it not only has the disadvantage that it is difficult to release the two from each other, but also has the disadvantage that the locking pawl and the protrusion wear quickly.

The present invention improves the conventional drawbacks and makes it possible to easily disengage the locking claw and the protrusion without applying excessive force to the lid.
Moreover, it provides a compact structure with less wear on both parts.

Hereinafter, the compact according to the present invention will be specifically explained based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall view of the compact according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the main body of the present invention broken down into parts.

A recess 10 is bored in the opening of the main body 1, and a locking claw is provided at the back of the recess 10 to prevent the lid 2 from opening when the lid 2 is in the closed state. 4 is installed protrudingly.

A notch 11 is provided adjacent to the recess 10, and a pin 8 is provided between the recess 10 and the notch 11.

The opening member 6 that engages with the recess 10, pin 8, and notch 11 of the main body 1 has a taper at one end that is thicker on the inside of the main body 1 and thinner toward the outside with the hole 9 in between. 6′
is provided to protrude outward from the main body 1, and a push button 7 is provided at the other end to protrude in the same direction as the taper 6'. 8 is engaged with a hole 9, and the notch 11 is engaged with a push button 7, respectively, and are attached so as to be rotatable about the pin 8 as a fulcrum.

On the other hand, the center of the opening of the lid body 2 is provided with a protrusion 13 that engages with the locking pawl 4 protruding from the recess 10 on the main body 1 side, and becomes thicker toward the outside of the lid body 2. A retaining piece 5 having a taper 5' is provided in a protruding manner and is connected to the main body 1 by a hinge 12 so as to be openable and closable.

Note that the middle frame 3 is inserted into the main body 1 to store cosmetics and the like.

The operation when opening the compact constructed as described above will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the center of the opening showing the closed state.

When the locking pawl 4 protruding from the recess 10 of the main body 1 and the protrusion 13 of the engagement piece 5 protruding from the center of the opening of the lid 2 are engaged (engaged), the lid 2 is opened. It is kept closed, but now,
When the push button 7 is pushed in the direction of arrow 2 in FIG. 1, the opening member 6 rotates around the pin 8 and hole 9, and the taper 6' moves in the direction of arrow 2 in FIG. 3.

When the taper 6' of the opening member 6 moves in the direction of the arrow (■), the taper 5' formed on the engagement piece 5 of the lid 2 and the taper 6' formed on the opening member 6 work together. Lid body 2
Lift the engaging piece 5 upwards diagonally outward from the compact.

In other words, the direction perpendicular to the tapered surface (arrow 0 shown in Figure 4)
A force is applied in the direction), and the engaging piece of the lid body 2 is separated from the locking claw 4 of the main body 1.

As is clear from the detailed description above, the present invention provides a recess in the opening of the main body, a notch adjacent to the recess,
On the other hand, when it is assembled into the main body with a hole in between, a taper that becomes thinner toward the outside of the main body is placed on one end, and an opening member with a push button protruding in the same direction as the taper is placed on the other end as a recess in the main body. The pin provided between the notches engages the hole of the opening member, and the protrusion of the engagement piece protruding from the lid side and the locking pawl on the main body side are provided so as to engage with each other, Since the configuration is such that the taper of the engagement piece and the taper of the opening member are in contact with each other, the following effects are achieved.

(1) Since the opening member rotates around the hole, by providing a hole near a part of the taper, even if you press the push button with a small force, a large force will act on the taper part (leverage). principle), the lid can be opened easily.

(2) Since the taper acts outward and upward, no unreasonable force is applied to the locking pawl and the protrusion, and therefore there is less wear on both, so failures of the locking portion can be reduced.

In addition, in the above embodiment, I4. As the engaging piece 5 of the lid body 2, the protrusion 13 that engages with the locking claw 4 of the main body 1 and the 5' on which the taper 6' of the opening member 6 acts are described as one body.
The protrusion 13 and the taper 5' are separated, and the main body 1
Since the pin 8 and the hole 9, which are engaged with the opening member 6, are in a relative relationship, it goes without saying that the pin may be provided on the opening member side, contrary to the above embodiment.
