Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] Industrial applications This case concerns compact containers for cosmetics.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY Compact cosmetic containers usually have a rear part of the lid that opens and closes the top of the compact body pivotally attached to the rear edge of the compact body, and the engagement for keeping the lid closed is carried out at the front part of the container. I'm going.

Conventionally, the engagement was removed by providing finger hooks on the front of the compact body and the lid, and pushing these in the opposite direction, but in this case, the engagement was removed. Since this can sometimes be difficult, some compacts have recently been equipped with a rotating piece or a sliding piece on the front of the compact body so that engagement and removal can be performed by operating the rotating piece or sliding piece.

Problems that the invention aims to solve: Providing a rotating piece, etc. at the front of the compact body spoils the appearance of the compact container.

The object of the present invention is to enable easy removal of the engagement between the compact body and the lid without damaging its appearance.

Means for Solving the Problems The compact main body 1 and the lid 2 that closes the top surface of the compact main body are pivotally connected at each rear edge portion by pins 3 so that the lid is biased in the opening direction. The lid is biased by a known method. An engaging piece 5 with a first engaging element 4 attached to its lower end hangs down from the back surface of the front part of the lid body, and the first engaging element engages with the upper part of the front part of the compact body to close the lid. A second engager 6 is provided to maintain the body closed state.

The second engaging element 6 is attached to the tip of the swing plate 7. The rocking plate 7 has its base end pivotally attached 7a to the compact main body, so that it can swing downward against bias, and is horizontally protruded in either the front or rear direction and is attached to the front of the compact main body. It is installed in the upper part.

Between the base body and the compact body, a first and a second
A small gap 8 is provided to allow the front part of the lid to be further pushed down from the engaged state of the engagers 4 and 6, and a small gap 8 is provided on the back side of the front part of the lid to allow the front part of the lid to be pushed down within the small gap. When lowered, a pressing portion 9 is provided which can push down the swing plate 7 and release the first and second engagers at this time.

Operation When the front part of the lid is pressed down in the lid closed state, the pressing part 9 pushes down the rocking plate 7 against the bias, and then the first and second engagements are activated as shown in FIG. 3B. Since the engagement between the interlocking elements 4 and 6 will be disengaged, if you release the front part of the lid body in this state,
The lid opens under pressure. When the lid is closed again, the first engager 4 comes into contact with the upper surface of the second engager 6, but when pressed further down, the rocking plate slides downward and the second engager comes off from the first engager. At this time, the swing plate 7 returns to the horizontal state, and the first engaging element 4 engages with the lower surface of the second engaging element 6 by releasing the front part of the lid.

Embodiment FIGS. 1 to 3 show a first embodiment. In this embodiment, the rocking plate 7 is pivotally attached to an upper plate 11 with a drum fitting recess 10 which is fitted into the compact body 1 as shown in FIG. There is 1 through hole on the top plate.
2 is bored, and bearings 13, 13 are suspended from the left and right edges of the through hole. Further, the swing plate 7 is made to protrude rearward. Note that 14 is a spring for biasing the rocking plate. Instead of the spring,
A spring with a mustache may be attached to the pivot portion of the rocking plate.

As shown in FIG. 4, the rocking plate portion 7 can also be made to protrude toward the front of the container.

FIG. 5 shows an example in which the bearings 13, 13 for pivoting the rocking plate are made to stand up from the bottom wall 15 of the compact main body.

Effect When the front part of the lid body 2 is pressed down, the pressing part 9 attached to the back surface of the lid body presses down the rocking plate 7 to move the first and second
This operation is extremely easy because the engagement elements 4 and 6 are disengaged, and since the lid body is biased in the opening direction, once the engagement elements 4 and 6 are disengaged, the lid body can be released as it is. The lid can be opened easily. Even when the lid is closed, the first and second engaging elements can be engaged simply by pressing down on the lid, which is convenient.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] The compact main body 1 and the lid 2 that opens and closes the top surface of the compact main body are pivoted at each rear edge by urging the lid in the opening direction, and from the front of the lid,
The closed state of the lid body is maintained by hanging the engaging piece 5 having the first engaging element 4 attached to the lower end and engaging the first engaging element with the second engaging element provided at the front part of the compact main body. In the cosmetic compact container, a swinging plate 7 is provided in the upper front part of the compact main body, the base end of the swinging plate is pivotally attached to the compact main body, and the second engagement member is attached to the tip of the swinging plate. A collapsible member 6 is attached and horizontally protruded in either the front or rear direction so as to be able to swing downward against bias, and between the lid body and the compact body, the first, A small gap is provided to allow the front part of the lid to be further pushed down from the second engager engaged state, and when the front part of the lid is pressed down within the small gap, the pressing force provided on the back surface of the front part of the lid is created. A cosmetic compact characterized in that the part 9 pushes down the swing plate, and at this time, the first and second engagers can be disengaged from each other.
