Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an accessory case suitable for storing various accessories such as a soap box, a cigarette ash remover, and a piggy bank.

In this invention, when the lever protruding from a part of the lid that covers the container body is pulled, the lid automatically opens, and when the opened lid is moved to the closed position, the lid automatically opens. The aim is to provide an accessory case that can be locked in place.

The embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. 1 is a small accessory case molded to imitate a hippopotamus, a type of beast, and the body is shaped to resemble the lower half of the hippopotamus's body to its lower jaw; The container body 2 is shaped so that the lower half of the hippopotamus is significantly smaller than the lower jaw, and the upper part of the hippo's body is designed to imitate the upper half of the hippo's body to the upper jaw. Lid body 3 shaped so that the part corresponding to the half is significantly smaller than the part corresponding to the upper jaw
It consists of. The container body 2 is provided with a partition wall 6 which partitions the inside thereof so that a part corresponding to the lower jaw of the hippocampus becomes a storage compartment 4, and a part corresponding to the lower half of the hippohorse's body becomes a small compartment 5. In the lid body 3, a portion corresponding to the upper jaw of the hippocampus becomes an opening/closing lid 7 that opens and closes the storage compartment 4, and a portion corresponding to the upper half of the hippohorse's body covers the small chamber 5 and is fixed to the container body 2. It is divided into fixed lids 8. The opening/closing lid 7 is provided with an actuating piece 9 that protrudes into the small chamber 5 from the center of the edge on the partition wall 6 side, and a thick joint part 10 is provided on the base end side of the actuating piece 9. Axial pins 11 and 12 are provided protruding from both sides of the shaft pin 12, and one shaft pin 12 is provided with an enlarged diameter portion 13. The fixed lid 8 has a notch 14 cut out in the center of the edge on the partition wall 6 side so that the joint part 10 and the enlarged diameter part 13 fit into it.
and a long hole 15 bored from a position close to the center of the edge opposite to the edge on the partition wall 6 side to a position close to the notch 14, and a pipe protruding vertically downward from both sides of the inner surface. 16 and 17 are provided, and bearing portions 18 and 19 are provided on both side edges of the notch portion 14 so as to cover the portions of the shaft pins 11 and 12 extending from above to both sides. Inside the small chamber 5, there is a pipe 1 that protrudes vertically upward from both sides of the bottom.
Pipes 20 and 21 into which the lower ends of 6 and 17 fit
and bearing portions 22 and 23 protruding from the wall surface of the partition wall 6 so as to abut against the lower portions of the shaft pins 11 and 12;
A bearing part 2 protrudes away from the wall surface of the partition wall 6 at a position lowered from the bearing parts 22 and 23.
4, 25, and a wood screw 2 is installed from the upper end of each pipe 20, 21 to the lower end of each pipe 16, 17.
6, 27, and fix the fixed lid 8 to the small chamber 5.
It is fixed so as to cover the A suspended spring 28 is wound around the enlarged diameter portion 13 so as to bias the opening/closing lid 7 in an open state at all times. Reference numeral 29 denotes a control lever, one end 30 of which protrudes to the outside of the fixed lid 8 through the elongated hole 15, and the other end 31 of which protrudes to the outside of the fixed lid 8.
A lever 33 connected to a shaft 32 installed at 4 and 25
, a receiving part 34 receives the tip of the actuating piece 9 with its lower surface in pressure contact when the opening/closing lid 7 is closed.
and a latching portion 35 that is latched to the upper surface of the tip of the operating piece 9 when the opening/closing lid 7 is opened. The portion of the control lever 29 that protrudes to the outside of the fixed lid 8 is shaped to resemble the tail of a hippopotamus. The tip of the actuating piece 9 is attached to the receiving part 3 on the shaft 32 of the control lever 33 when the opening/closing lid 7 is closed and opened.
A suspended spring 36 is wound around the spring 4 and the hook 35 so as to be in pressure contact with the hook 35. Four protrusions 37 imitating the legs of a hippopotamus are provided on the lower surface of the bottom of the container body 2. Note that when putting soap or the like into the container body 2, a slit 38 is provided at the bottom of the container body 2 to remove water, etc.
The slit 38 may be omitted depending on the small items to be placed in the case.

Next, to explain the operation of the accessory case with the above configuration, when the opening/closing lid 7 is closed, the actuating piece 9 projects horizontally into the inside of the fixed lid 8 as shown in the second figure, and the actuating piece 9 The control lever 29 stands up at the position where the tip receives the elastic force of the spring 36 and touches the end, and the receiving portion 34 is located on the lower surface of the tip of the actuating piece 9, so the tip of the actuating piece 9 receives the elastic force of the spring 28. The operating piece 9 is received in a state in which it is in pressure contact with the receiving portion 34, and the opening/closing lid 7 is locked in the closed state.

In this state, if the control lever 29 is pulled down as shown in FIG. The pins 11 and 12 are used as fulcrums to rapidly push down, and the opening/closing lid 7 is then suddenly opened using the shaft pins 11 and 12 as fulcrums. When the opening/closing lid 7 is opened in this way, if the control lever 29 is released from the lower position, the control lever 29 will move as shown in the fourth figure.
returns to its original position under the force of the spring 36, and the latch portion 35 hits the upper surface of the tip of the actuating piece 9, which has been pushed down under the force of the spring 28, and the opening/closing lid 7 is hung in the open state. stop.

If the opening/closing lid 7 opened in this way is pushed down against the elasticity of the spring 28 and using the shaft pins 11 and 12 as fulcrums, the tip of the actuating piece 9 will be
While being pushed up using the shaft pins 11 and 12 as fulcrums, the control lever 29 is pushed against the elasticity of the spring 36 until the hook 35 is disengaged from the tip of the actuating piece 9, and the opening/closing lid 7 is placed in the closed lid position. reached,
When the actuating piece 9 reaches the horizontal position, the control lever 2
9 receives the elasticity of the spring 36, and the receiving part 34
is pushed back until it reaches a position where it receives the tip of the operating piece 9, and the opening/closing lid 7 is locked in the closed state.

The present invention may be implemented as a container for various models other than hippopotamus, or other suitable shapes.

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when the lever protruding from a part of the lid covering the container body is pulled, the lid automatically opens and the opened lid is moved to the closed position. Since the lid is automatically locked when moved, it is possible to provide an accessory case that is convenient for putting in and taking out small items. In addition, by molding the shape of the accessory case to imitate a hippopotamus as in the above example, the opening/closing lid mimics the familiar motion of a hippopotamus opening its mouth, making the movement more interesting. A storage compartment can be provided.
