Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention pivots a compact main body and a lid body for opening and closing the top surface of the main body at each rear edge, and also includes a first engaging protrusion attached to the front surface of the front wall of the main body. The present invention relates to a compact container in which a second engaging protrusion at the lower end of an engaging piece, which is vertically provided from the front part of the lid body, is engaged with the lower surface.

This type of compact container usually has finger hooks attached to a part of the front wall of the compact main body and a part of the front wall of the lid body, and by simultaneously pushing these finger hooks in the opposite direction up and down, the first and the above-mentioned Although the two engagement protrusions are disengaged, if the engagement is too strong, it is difficult to disengage, and precision is required to make the engagement appropriate, resulting in high costs. In order to eliminate these drawbacks, a rotating body is provided on the front wall of the compact body.
When the lower part of the rotating body is pushed in, an engagement plate attached to the rotating body pushes up the lower surface of the engagement piece to disengage the first and second engagement protrusions. However, if this is done, when the first and second engaging protrusions are disengaged, that is, when the lid is open, the rotating body will move blindly at a certain angle in both forward and reverse directions, resulting in rattling. The day came. Although the rattling is not caused by any structural problems, it is not desirable for the user as a consumer and impairs the confidence in the product.

The present invention prevents the above-mentioned rotating body from rattling.The first embodiment shown in Figs. I'm wearing it.

A first recess 4 for fitting a rotating body, which will be described later, is bored in the front surface of the front wall 3 of the compact main body. The recess is open on the front and top surfaces, and therefore the bottom wall 5
It is formed by a rear wall 6 and left and right side walls 7, 7.
A first engaging protrusion 8 is provided horizontally above the central portion of the rear wall 6, and protrusions 9 are provided at the vertical intermediate portions of both left and right portions of the rear wall. Further, second recesses 10, 10 for bearings are bored in the left and right side walls.

An engagement piece 11 hangs down from the front part of the lid body 2, and a second engagement protrusion 12 attached to the lower rear surface of the engagement piece engages with the lower edge of the first engagement protrusion. be.

The rotating body 13 is fitted into the first recess. The rotating body has shafts 14, 14 attached to both end faces.
are fitted into the aforementioned second recesses 10, 10, and the rear portion of the engagement plate 15 protruding from the rear surface of the rotating body is engaged with the lower end surface of the aforementioned engagement piece. Further, leaf springs 16, 16 are suspended from the upper edges of the left and right sides of the rotary body with an appropriate gap between them and the rear surface of the rotary body, and the lower portions of the leaf springs are bent diagonally downward to the rear so that the bent portions are bent backward. Statement part 9,
9 is engaged with the lower surface. As can be understood from FIG. 3, the upper ends of the leaf springs 16, 16 are preferably located above the shafts 14, 14.

In the above configuration, when the lower part of the leaf spring is brought into pressure contact with the protrusions 9, 9, the lower part of the rotating body is pushed backward and does not move blindly forward. When the lower part of the rotating body is pushed backward from the state shown in FIG. 3, the lower part elastically deforms the leaf spring around the shafts 14, 14 until the rear surface of the lower part contacts the lower part of the leaf spring, and is pushed into the first recess. The engagement plate 15 is pushed into the engagement piece 11.
Push up to disengage the first and second engaging protrusions.
When the press is released, the leaf spring returns to the state shown.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment in which the protrusions 9, 9 of the rear wall 6 of the first recess are not provided, and the upper end of the leaf spring 16 is made to protrude from approximately the same height as the shafts 14, 14. This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the lower end of the leaf spring is fitted into the rear wall of the first recess. In the case of this embodiment, one end of the leaf spring is fixed to the rotating body and the other end is fixed to the rear wall of the first recess, so that the lower part of the rotating body does not move blindly in any direction. When the lower part of the rotating body is pushed backward from the state shown in the figure, the plate springs are elastically deformed and rotated around the shafts 14, 14, so that the engagement plate 15 pushes up the engagement piece 11, and the first and second engagement Disengage the mating protrusions 8 and 12.
When the push is released, the leaf spring returns to the state shown.

The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and the leaf spring 16 is made to protrude from the rear surface of the rotary body, and the tip of the leaf spring is engaged with the rear surface of the first recess so as to prevent blind movement of the rotary body. Since there is no backlash and the leaf spring can be molded integrally with the rotating body, there is no need to increase the number of parts and increase costs, and the installation of the leaf spring is not troublesome, unlike when separate members are provided.
