Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a device for fixing an inner tray in a compact, which is used to compactly fix an inner tray filled with cosmetics such as foundation.

Generally, a compact container is composed of a container body and a lid body that is hinged to one edge of the container body and has a mirror on the inside, and an inner tray filled with cosmetics such as foundation is stored inside the container body.

By the way, the inner plate is stored in a state fixed to the container body by some means so that it does not easily slip out from the container body, but conventional methods for fixing the inner plate include the use of adhesive, Fixing methods such as forcible fitting using undercuts or ribs were used.

However, the size (diameter dimension,
Conventional methods for fixing the inner plate change the shape of the compact product depending on the size of the inner plate, and only one compact is used for one inner plate. There is a dissatisfaction with the fact that it has to be molded, which increases the cost of the compact.

Furthermore, when replacing the inner plate with a new one after the cosmetics have been consumed, using adhesive to fix the inner plate may cause problems such as the adhesive adhering to fingertips or clothing; With the conventional force-fitting method, there are problems that need to be solved, such as being relatively difficult to process, being susceptible to dimensional accuracy, and making it difficult to attach and detach the inner plate.

This idea was made in consideration of the conventional problems mentioned above, and its purpose is to
To provide a fixing device for an inner plate in a compact, which can store two or more inner plates of different sizes in the same compact in a fixed state without changing the product shape of the compact.

In order to achieve such an object, the present invention particularly provides a saucer-shaped holder that forms a recess for accommodating the inner plate at a position facing the mounting hole of the inner frame in the recess of the container body, and A plurality of inner plate holders are divided along lines extending radially from the center of the mounting hole, and are arranged movably toward the center of the mounting hole, and these inner plate holders are connected to the center of the mounting hole. The inner plate holder is composed of a bottom plate and a side wall erected on the outer peripheral edge of the bottom plate, and the upper edge of the inner plate is attached to the upper inner surface of the side wall. A locking protrusion is formed to engage with the locking protrusion, and the upper and lower surfaces of the locking protrusion are formed to be inclined so that the tip thereof is tapered.

This invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

The container body 1 is made of synthetic resin or the like and has a substantially rectangular shape as a whole, and has a recess 2 on the top surface for accommodating a circular saucer-shaped inner plate 20 . On the bottom surface 1a of the container body 1 in this recess 2,
A pair of fitting protrusions 32 for locking springs 30, which will be described later, are located at the four corners of the recess 2 and are formed symmetrically along the diagonal line of the container body 1. A lid 5 having a mirror 4 on the inner surface is hinged to one edge via a hinge 3, and is designed to cover the recess 2.

On the other hand, in the upper part of the container body 1, the recess 2
The middle frame 6 is attached so as to cover the middle frame 6, and the middle plate 20 is mounted approximately at the center of the middle frame 6.
A mounting hole 7 is formed. The mounting hole 7 is formed in a circular shape corresponding to the shape of the inner plate 20, and in the recess 2 of the container body 1 facing the mounting hole 7, as shown in FIG. A saucer-shaped holder that forms a housing recess A for the inner tray 20 is provided.

This holder includes a plurality of inner plate holders 10 which are divided along lines extending radially from the center of the mounting hole 7 and are disposed movably toward the center of the mounting hole 7, and these inner plate holders. The spring 30 biases the receiver 10 toward the center of the mounting hole 7.
The inner tray holder 10 is composed of a fan-shaped bottom plate 11 and a side wall 12 erected on the outer periphery of the bottom plate 11 so as to surround the bottom plate 11. It is formed with approximately the same curvature as the outer periphery of. A locking protrusion 1 that engages with the upper edge of the inner plate 20 is provided on the upper inner surface of the side wall 12.
3 is formed, and this locking protrusion 13 is
The upper and lower surfaces 13a, 1 are arranged so that the tips thereof are tapered.
3b is an inclined surface. Furthermore, a flange 14 that comes into contact with the back surface of the middle frame 6 is provided on the upper side opposite to the bottom plate 11.

By the way, the spring 30 includes a curved elastic piece 31 made of synthetic resin or the like and having elasticity. It is attached by fastening. Further, the curved elastic piece 31 is slidably locked by fitting the locking portions 31a at both ends between a pair of fitting protrusions 32 formed on the bottom surface 1a of the container body 1. The inner plate holder 10 is biased using the fitting protrusion 32 as a fulcrum. Furthermore, the curved elastic piece 31 is
0 to the container body 1. In the figure, 25 is a pin insertion hole, and a pin or the like is inserted into this pin insertion hole 25 to push up the inner plate 20.

Note that the spring 30 is not limited to one using a curved elastic piece 31 made of synthetic resin or the like, and may have any configuration, such as one using a coil spring, for example.

Further, the shape of the accommodation recess A of the inner plate 20 constituted by the inner plate holder 10 is not limited to the circular shape as described above, but, for example, as shown in FIG. It may be a recess B, and its shape is arbitrary.

Next, the operation of the inner plate fixing device of this invention having the above structure will be explained.

First, in the compact container configured as described above, when fixing the inner plate 20 to the container body 1, hold the inner plate 20 with your fingertips and insert it from above the mounting hole 7 formed in the inner frame 6. Multiple medium plate holder 10
It is sufficient to push it from above into the accommodation recess A formed by. At this time, the inner plate 20 resists the urging force of the spring 30, that is, the curved elastic piece 31, so that the lower surface of the inner plate 20 slides on the upper surface 13a of the locking protrusion 13 of the inner plate receiver 10. and outward (4th
(to the right in the figure), and is inserted into the accommodation recess A after passing between the locking protrusions 13. Then, at the same time that the inner plate 20 is inserted into the accommodation recess A, the plurality of inner plate holders 10 are urged toward the approximate center of the mounting hole 7 by the action of the curved elastic piece 31,
The upper end of the inner plate 20 is connected to the lower surface 13b of the locking protrusion 13.
The inner plate 20 is clamped in the accommodation recess A by being locked with the inner plate 20.
As a result, the inner plate 20 is fixed to the container body 1, and the inner plate 20 will not come out of the container body 1 inadvertently.

On the other hand, when removing the inner plate 20, it is sufficient to insert a pin rod or the like into the pin insertion hole 25 of the container body 1 and push up the back surface of the inner plate 20.

In the above, the locking protrusion 13 is formed to have a tapered end, and its upper surface 13a and lower surface 13b constitute an inclined surface, so that it is easy to insert the inner tray 20 into the accommodation recess A, and the inner tray 20 can be easily inserted into the accommodation recess A. Concave A that accommodates 20
When inserted into the interior, the upper end can be locked at any position on the lower surface 13b of the locking protrusion 13, and
Since the inner plate holder 10 is always urged toward the approximate center of the mounting hole 7 by the spring 30, the inner plate 20
The inner plate 20 can be fixed to the container body 1 regardless of its size. That is, in the fixing device for the inner plate 20 configured as described above, the plurality of inner plate holders 10 that hold the inner plate 20 move depending on the size of the inner plate 20, and the inner plate holder 10 that holds the inner plate 20 moves depending on the size of the inner plate 20. Since the locking position (clamping position) of the locking protrusion 13 is changed, the height and size of the inner plate 20 can be adjusted by the amount of movement of the inner plate holder 10 and the length of the inclined surface, so that various sizes can be created. The inner plate 20 can be attached. In addition, since a flange 14 is formed on the upper part of the side wall 12 of the inner plate holder 10, even if the clamping position of the inner plate holder 10 changes due to the difference in the size of the inner plate 20, the aesthetic appearance of the compact will be impaired. Never.

As explained above, this invention provides the following excellent effects.

The holder for holding the inner plate is composed of a plurality of inner plate holders and a spring that biases the inner plate holders toward the center of the mounting hole. Since the locking position of the locking protrusion can be changed, the height and size of the inner plate can be adjusted by the amount of movement of the inner plate holder and the length of the slope, allowing for two or more types. It is possible to attach medium plates of different sizes. As a result, the inner plates can be stored in the same compact without changing the product shape of the compact, there is no need to prepare one compact for one inner plate, and the cost of the compact can be reduced.

Since the locking protrusion that locks the inner plate is formed to be tapered at the tip, the inner plate can be smoothly attached or removed along the inclined surface, making it easy to attach or remove the inner plate. Can be implemented.

The inner plate can be securely attached using only the multiple inner plate holders that are movably arranged toward the center of the mounting hole, so you can attach the inner plate without using adhesive. This prevents the adhesive from getting on your fingertips or clothing when replacing the inner tray.
