Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] A. Purpose of the Invention Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a cosmetic compact that is carried while being stored in a handbag or the like.

PRIOR TECHNOLOGY This type of cosmetic compact is small, and therefore the clasp for locking the lid is also extremely small, which often makes unlocking inconvenient, especially when the clasp is hard to lock. may damage your fingertips and nails.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention The present invention provides an operating head made of a soft material that is elastically deformable and has a wide operating surface as one engaging body of the clasp, and deforms and manipulates this head to close the clasp. To provide a cosmetic compact which is configured to be unlocked and can therefore be easily and safely unlocked and opened.

B. Structure of the invention Means for solving the problems The cosmetic compact of the invention includes a lid 3 whose rear end is pivotally connected to the upper surface of the cosmetic dish 1 by a hinge 2, and a spring with a mustache attached to the hinge 2. In a cosmetic compact in which the lid 3 is always biased in the open direction, an engaging protrusion 4 is provided to protrude forward from the front end surface of the lid 3,
On the other hand, a bag-shaped operating head 5 made of an elastically deformable soft material and having an opening on the rear side is fixedly attached to the front surface of the compact body by attaching and fixing the bottom wall thereof to a support piece 6 protruding forward from the cosmetic tray 1. The rear edge of the top wall, which is the free end of the operating head 5, is hooked onto the upper surface of the engagement protrusion 4 and locked, and the lid 3 is closed against the spring with a mustache. The configuration is such that the state is maintained.

Effect With the above configuration, if the upper and lower surfaces of the operating head 5 are pinched and compressed, or the upper surface is pressed downward, the operating head 5 will deform, and this deformation will cause it to disengage from the engagement protrusion 4. To unlock the lid, the lid 3 is driven by a barbed spring and opens upward. Incidentally, when the lid 3 is pushed downward, the engaging protrusion 4 engages with the free end edge of the operating head 5 to lock it, and the lid 3 is closed.

Embodiment 1 First Embodiment (FIGS. 1 and 2) The overall shape of the compact to which the operating head 5 is attached is a triangle whose front side is tapered. Further, the operating head 5 has a bottom wall having a forked shape, and a support piece 6 is sandwiched between the forked parts and fixedly attached. Although the spring is not shown, a well-known spring with whiskers is used, and as is well known, this spring is attached to the hinge 2 by hooking one barb to the cosmetic plate 1 on the fixed side and the other barb to the lid 3 on the movable side. It is attached to a shaft so that the force of the spring is applied to the lid 3 as an urging force in the opening direction. 7 is a cosmetic drum stored in the cosmetic tray 1, and 8 is a mirror attached to the back surface of the lid 3.

Second Embodiment (Fig. 3 a, b, c) In this embodiment, the supporting piece 6 protruding from the cosmetic dish 1 is extended and its tip is bent upward to form an L shape, and the supporting piece 6 is operated. The head 5 is fitted over the head 5, and in this example, the upper surface is pressed downward to disengage the engagement protrusion 4. An engaging protrusion 9 is provided protrudingly on the upper surface of the bottom wall of the operating head 5, and this protrusion 9 is engaged with a corresponding groove on the lower surface of the support piece 6 to ensure secure attachment. Moreover, an example in which an inner tray 10 is provided inside the cosmetics tray 1 is shown.

In both of the above embodiments, the operating head 5 is made of a soft synthetic resin material, while the other parts are made of a hard synthetic resin material.

C. Effects of the invention In the above invention, a bag-shaped operation head 5 that is elastically deformable by protruding from the front part of the compact body is provided.
The lid 3, which is always biased in the opening direction by the free end of the top wall, is supported via the engagement protrusion 4 on the front end surface to maintain the closed state, and when the lid is opened, the top and bottom surfaces are Unlocking and opening the lid are easy because the lock is released from the engagement protrusion 4 by pinching or pressing the top surface to deform it. Further, since the upper and lower surfaces of the operation head 5 are relatively wide, the operation can be performed with the pads of the fingers, and there is no need to worry about damaging the fingertips or nails, making it safe. Also, the operation head 5
Since it is an elastic body, the alignment with the engagement protrusion 4 can be rough compared to the conventional clasp that relies on the engagement of engagement protrusions with each other, and therefore there is an advantage that precision is not required for machining and assembly.
