Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a compact container for storing cosmetics, puffs, etc.

A woman's makeup routine generally involves applying lotion, milky lotion, skin lotion, control color (base cream), and foundation (solid form) in this order after washing her face.

By the way, compact containers usually contain solid foundation among the various cosmetics mentioned above, and are often used for simple makeup touch-ups on the go. In addition to foundation, a so-called base cream, such as a control color, is often required.

However, as is well known, conventional compact containers do not have a structure in which the container body is sealed even when the lid is closed, so it is difficult to store cream-like cosmetics with low viscosity such as control color. Therefore, it is inconvenient that such a control collar must be carried in a portable bottle or the like along with a compact container. In addition, the separate containers often caused inconvenience, especially when you needed to quickly touch up your makeup while out and about.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and its object is to provide a functional compact container that can store not only solid foundations and puffs, but also cream-like cosmetics such as control colors at the same time.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figures 1 to 3 are perspective views of the compact container according to the present invention, and Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view.
In these figures, reference numeral 1 indicates a container main body with an open top, reference numeral 2 indicates a lid that is hinged to one edge of the container main body via a pin 3 and opens and closes the opening of the container main body 1, and reference numeral 4 indicates the container main body. Pin 3 as well as 1
It is an intermediate plate that is hingedly connected through the container body 1 and the lid body 2 and divides the storage space formed by the container body 1 and the lid body 2 into upper and lower parts, and both of these plates are made of synthetic resin.

At the center of the upper surface of the middle plate 4, there is a storage part 4 for so-called cream-like cosmetics such as control color.
A cylindrical protrusion 42 is formed forming the cylindrical protrusion 1, and a ring-shaped protrusion 43 is formed on the inner peripheral surface near the mouth edge of the cylindrical protrusion 42. Reference numeral 44 denotes an inner lid that is placed over the mouth edge of the accommodating portion 41, and this inner lid 44 is formed with an annular protrusion 45 that fits inside the cylindrical protrusion 42. A ring-shaped protrusion 46 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the ring-shaped protrusion 45 and engages with the ring-shaped protrusion 43 in a liquid-tight manner. The inner lid 44 and the middle plate 4 are connected by a connecting piece 47. In addition, the middle plate 4, the middle lid 44, and the connecting piece 4
In this embodiment, 7 is integrally formed by a molding method such as simultaneous injection molding.

The peripheral edge of the intermediate plate 4 is formed to approximately match the shape of the opening edge of the container body 1, and the inner surface of the peripheral edge of the intermediate plate 7 is formed to match the shape of the opening edge of the container body 1.
The container body 1 is positioned in contact with a step 11 formed on the edge of the opening, thereby forming an accommodation space A between the lower surface of the intermediate plate 4 and the bottom surface of the container body 1. This storage space A is used to store solidified cosmetics such as foundation, puffs, and the like.

Note that a rectangular through hole 48 through which the engagement piece 21 formed protruding from the lid body 2 passes is provided at the peripheral edge of the middle plate 4 on the opposite side from the hinge joint portion.
A U-shaped protrusion 49 is formed on the inner surface of the engagement piece 21 on the wall surface of the recess 12 formed in the portion of the container body 1 corresponding to the engagement piece 21. A locking protrusion 13 that engages with the protrusion 22 is formed, and these constitute a so-called base portion. Note that the reference numeral 23 indicates a mirror, and the reference numeral 50 indicates a knob piece.

When using the compact container according to the present invention constructed in this way, cream-like cosmetics such as control color are put in the storage part 41 with the inner lid 44, and the cream-like cosmetics such as control color are placed in the storage space A under the middle plate 4. Use with solid foundation, puff, or both. In this case, even if the cosmetics placed in the container 41 are cream-like with low viscosity such as control color, the inner lid 4
4 over the rim of the housing part 41 and push it in, the fourth
As shown in the figure, at the position where the ring-shaped protrusion 46 on the inner lid 44 side passes over the ring-shaped protrusion 43 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical protrusion 42, the two become liquid-tight with each other. Fit together to prevent contents from leaking. Here, when removing the inner lid 44, it is sufficient to perform an operation such as pushing the inner lid 44 upward using the knob piece 50. Even if the inner cover 44 is removed by such an operation, there is no risk of it being lost since the inner cover 44 is integrally connected to the middle plate 4 by the connecting piece 47. In addition, when opening the lid body 2 from the closed state as shown in FIG. When the engagement is released, the lid body 2 becomes rotatable with respect to the container body 1 together with the middle plate 4 about the pin 3 as a fulcrum.

5 and 6 show another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a screw is threaded on the outer peripheral surface of a cylindrical protrusion 42 that forms a housing portion 41 in the center of the upper surface of the middle plate 4. 43a, and on the other hand, a female thread (not shown) is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the inner lid 60 to be screwed into the male thread 43a.
The inner lid 60 is of a so-called screw-in type.

In this way, when the inner lid 60 is of a screw type type, the sealing effect of the accommodating portion 41 can be made more reliable.

In each of the above embodiments, a sealing member such as a rubber gasket may be provided on the inner surface of the inner lid to further ensure the sealing effect of the accommodating portion 41.

As described in detail above, the compact container according to the present invention has a cylindrical protrusion that forms a storage part at the center of the upper surface of the middle plate, and the contents are liquid-tightly sealed at the rim of the cylindrical protrusion. Since the structure is such that it is covered with a removable and removable inner lid, and a space for accommodating at least a puff or a solid cosmetic is formed on the underside of the inner plate, it is possible to store foundations, puffs, etc. as solid cosmetics. In addition, creamy cosmetics such as control colors can be stored at the same time, making it extremely convenient for sudden use on the go. It has excellent practical effects such as preventing the mirror provided on the inner surface of the lid from becoming dirty or foggy due to the cosmetics contained therein.
