Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The invention relates to a compact container,
In particular, the present invention relates to a compact container in which a partition is provided between a lid and a container so that cosmetics and an applicator such as a puff can be stored separately.

This type of compact container is provided for the purpose of storing and carrying puffs etc. that have been soaked in water along with cosmetics. Generally, a method is adopted in which a ventilation hole is formed and the recess is communicated with the outside.

However, when the puff communicates with the outside through the ventilation hole, water may leak from the ventilation hole if the puff is stored without thoroughly draining the water after use, or makeup that may be stuck to the puff after drying. This can lead to unsanitary conditions such as dust scattering from there and staining the inside of the handbag, or conversely, external dust can seep into the recess through the ventilation hole and adhere to the puff. Ta. In addition, especially when a ventilation hole is formed at the bottom of the recess, when a damp puff is stored, the ventilation hole is blocked by the puff's own weight, resulting in the problem that sufficient ventilation cannot be achieved. It was hot.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to dry puffs and the like while they are stored, and also to prevent moisture and adhering cosmetics from scattering to the outside or vice versa. To provide a compact container in which there is no fear that external dust etc. may adhere to the puffs etc. being stored, and the ventilation of the recess for storing the puffs is not impaired.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 show a compact container according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a container portion 1, a partition body 2, and a lid body 3 can be opened and closed at the rear end by hinges 4 and 5. It is connected to the . The lid body 3 has a first hook 6 formed on the body end edge,
The third hook 8 formed at the lower front edge of the partition body 2 is connected to the second hook 7 at the upper front edge of the partition body 2 to close the partition body, while the third hook 8 formed at the lower front edge of the partition body 2 is connected to the fourth hook 7 at the upper front edge of the partition body 1. It is configured to be coupled with the hook 9 to close the container portion. The upper center of the partition body 2 has a dish shape, and this and the lid body 3 form a recess 1 for storing puffs.
0 is defined, and an inner tray 13 filled with a cosmetic 12 is attached to the recess 11 of the container portion 1. Further, a mirror 14 is fixed to the lower surface of the partition 2, and this mirror can be used when the partition is opened to the container portion 1.

In the recess 10 for storing puffs, a dish-shaped water absorbent body 15 is fixed to the partition body along the inner peripheral wall of the partition body 2 forming the recess, and a puff 16 is attached to the inside of the water absorbent body.
is placed. This water absorbent body 15 can be formed from Japanese paper, foamed plastic, porous sintered plastic sheet, etc., which have excellent water absorption properties due to capillary phenomenon, but preferably, by using a composite material of these materials, the surface hardness and It is also important to have sufficient wear resistance. Further, this water absorbent body 15 is communicated with the outside through a pair of horizontal slits 17a and 17b formed through both side walls of the partition body 2, whereby water is absorbed from the puff 16 into the water absorbent body 15. The moisture evaporates, promoting drying of the puff. Preferably, when forming and fixing the water absorbent body 15, the portions corresponding to the slits 17a and 17b are curved as shown in the figure to increase the area communicating with the outside.

In the compact container configured as above,
Cosmetics may be applied to the puff 16 by moistening it with water, and after use, the puff is stored in the recess 10 and the lid 3 is closed. As a result, the moisture contained in the puff 16 is absorbed by the water absorbent body 15 fixed in the recess by capillary action, and further this absorbed moisture evaporates into the outside air through the slits 17a and 17b. As a result, the puff 16 is completely dried and the recess 10 is prevented from being filled with bad odor. On the other hand, since the puff 16 and the outside are separated by the water absorbing body 15, the puff 16 is completely dried. The cosmetics are prevented from scattering to the outside and staining the inside of the bag, and conversely, dust from the outside air is prevented from adhering to the puff 16, so that the puff can always be kept sanitary. Also, recess 10
Slits 17a and 17b are formed on each side wall of the partition 2, and the water absorbent body 15 is interposed between the slits 17a and 17b and the puff 16.
These slits are not blocked and the recess 10 is always well ventilated.

As described above, the present invention provides a compact container in which a lid body and a partition body are connected to a container part by a hinge so as to be openable and closable, and recesses are separately provided to store cosmetics and application bodies such as puffs. A coating body storing recess is defined by a partition body and a lid body, a water absorbing body is fixed to the concave part so as to cover the peripheral wall of the partition body and come into contact with the coating body, and this is attached to both side walls of the partition body. The water absorbent body is communicated with the outside air by forming a horizontal slit that passes through it, so when a moist puff, etc. is stored, the moisture is absorbed by the water absorbent body and then evaporates into the outside air. In addition to being able to dry as is, the water absorbent body prevents moisture from dripping during storage or cosmetics from scattering from dried puffs, etc., resulting in stains.
On the other hand, there is no fear that dust in the outside air will enter the recess and adhere to the puff, and the puff etc. can be stored hygienically. Furthermore, the drying effect can be carried out efficiently by communicating the water absorbent body with the outside through the slit, and the structure is also streamlined, which improves operability during use. It is very convenient in practice.
