Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a sealed compact for humid cosmetic materials.

There are many cosmetic materials that have a high moisture content, such as foundation and white powder, and these should be stored in airtight containers to prevent moisture from evaporating and leaking from inside the container. It is necessary that the

However, when trying to set the above-mentioned high-humidity cosmetic material into a portable compact, the lower lid and the upper lid, which are pivoted to each other at their rear ends, are
Compacts whose lids are closed by engaging the engaging portions formed at their front ends with each other do not have sufficient airtightness, and the moisture in the decorative material leaks between the lower and upper lids. It will gradually evaporate from the gaps between the compacts, and if you leave it for a long time, the decorative material will dry out and become unusable, or the decorative material itself will leak from inside the compact and stain the surrounding area. It often happens that the device is put away, and the engagement of the engagement parts at the front ends of the top and bottom lids tends to disengage easily, resulting in the top lid opening when being carried.
The contents often leaked out.

This invention was made in order to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional compacts for storing high-humidity decorative materials as described above. It is an object of the present invention to provide a closed type compact in which the engagement between the upper cover and the lower cover is strong, and the upper cover is prevented from being opened unexpectedly.

This invention will be explained below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

In Figs. 1 to 3, a recess 1 for filling the decorative material is shown.
An elastic ring 2 is embedded in the lower lid 1 equipped with a rim 1 at the outer periphery of the cosmetic material filling recess 1a so that its tip protrudes upward from the upper surface of the lower lid 1.
Further, a groove 1b that opens upward and outward is formed in the upper end of the outer periphery of the lower lid 1, and sliding grooves that open laterally are formed in the outer periphery of both left and right sides of the lower lid 1 within this groove 1b. 1c is drilled horizontally. The sliding groove 1c has an opening that opens upward on the rear end side in the clockwise direction from the center of the decorative material filling recess 1a in FIG. 1d are formed respectively,
Further, an inclined portion 1e that slopes downward from the opening 1d side toward the other end portion is formed on the lower surface of the top portion.

An upper lid main body 3 is attached to the rear end of the lower lid 1 with its rear end pivotally supported so that the upper lid main body 3 can be opened and closed. are formed identically. An engagement protrusion 3a is protruded from the outer peripheral side of the upper lid main body 3, and an engagement groove 4a bored in the inner circumferential surface is slidably fitted into the engagement protrusion 3a. In this state, the ring 4 is attached to the top lid body 3.
It is rotatably attached to the outer periphery of the This ring 4 and the upper lid main body 3 constitute an upper lid 5.

The lower end of the ring 4 protrudes downward from the lower surface of the upper lid main body 3, and when the upper lid 5 is closed to the lower lid 1,
It is adapted to be fitted into the groove 1b of the lower lid 1. A protrusion 4b is protrudingly provided on the inside of the lower end of the left and right sides of the ring 4, and when the ring is positioned at a closing position to be described later and the upper cover 5 is closed, the ring 4 passes through the opening 1d and slides into the sliding groove 1c. It is designed to be fitted inside. Note that 6 is a mirror attached to the lower surface of the upper lid main body 3.

To use the above compact, the upper cover 5 is closed and the protrusion 4b is inserted into the sliding groove 1 as shown in FIG.
From the state in which the ring 4 is in contact with the side wall of the end opposite to the opening 1d of c (the state shown in FIG. 4), move the ring 4 toward the top lid main body 3 in the direction of opening the lid (direction of arrow A in FIG. 2).
, the projection 4b slides within the sliding groove 1c and moves to the position of the opening 1d, and then the upper lid 5
Open the lid. Then, the protrusion 4b passes through the opening 1d and comes off the sliding groove 1c, allowing the upper cover 5 to be opened.

If a torsion spring is interposed between the pivot parts of the lower lid 1 and the upper lid main body 3 to always bias the upper lid 5 in the opening direction, the ring 4 can be turned to move the protrusion 4b into the opening 1d. It is also possible to automatically open the upper cover 5 simply by bringing it to the position shown in FIG.

Next, when closing the upper lid 5, the ring 4 is placed at a position where the protrusion 4b corresponds to the opening 1d (closing position).
When the upper lid 5 is closed, the lower end of the ring 4 fits into the groove 1b of the lower lid 1, and the protrusion 4b fits into the sliding groove 1c through the opening 1d. Then, when the ring 4 is rotated in the direction opposite to the arrow A in FIG. Abuts against the side wall. As a result, the upper lid main body 3 is urged downward, so that the lower surface of the upper lid main body 3 is pressed against the upper end of the elastic ring 2, and the inside of the cosmetic material filling recess 1a is sealed.

Here, in order to position the ring 4 at the closed position with respect to the upper lid main body 3 in the open state, the engaging protrusion 3a of the upper lid main body 3 slides within the engaging groove 4a of the ring 4. Then, when one end of the engagement protrusion 3a comes into contact with the side wall of one end of the engagement groove 4a,
If the protrusion 4b is positioned at a position corresponding to the opening 1d, this can be done easily.

As described above, in this device, as the ring rotates, the protrusion formed on the ring is removably fitted into the sliding groove formed on the lower lid, and the lower surface of the upper lid is brought into contact with the upper surface of the lower lid. By being pressed into contact with the attached elastic body, the inside of the compact can be completely sealed, and the humid decorative material stored in the compact can be prevented from drying out and leaking. This has excellent effects in that the upper and lower lids are difficult to disengage when carried, and opening and closing operations are easy.
