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 body and a part of the front wall of the lid body, and by simultaneously pushing these finger hooks in opposite directions up and down, 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, by doing this, when the first and second engaging protrusions are disengaged, that is, when the lid is open, the rotating body will rotate at a certain angle in both forward and reverse directions. It was to occur. 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 rotating body from rattling. Referring to the drawings below, 1 is a compact body, 2 is a lid body, and these are pivotally attached at each rear part.

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 attached to the center of the rear wall 6, and second recesses 9, 9 for bearings are provided on the left and right side walls.
has been drilled. The second recess is a circular recess whose front portion is open to the front, and a third recess 10 is formed on the lower surface of the recess forming wall.

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

The rotating body 13 is fitted into the first recess. The rotating body extends from both left and right sides of the front wall 14 to the end wall 1.
5 and 15, and an engagement plate 16 respectively protrude rearward from the lower part of the front wall, and shaft portions 17, 17 are attached to the outer surfaces of both left and right end walls, and the shaft portions are inserted into the second recess. They are fitted together so that the rotating body can rotate. The shaft portion has a C-shaped spring piece 1 as shown in the figure.
8,18. One end of the spring piece is attached to the end walls 15, 15, and the other end is fixed to the inner surface of the second recess, and the other end has a protrusion 1.
9 and 19 are attached, and the protrusion is attached to the third
It is fixed by fitting into the recess. Engagement plate 1
The rear upper surface of 6 is engaged with the lower end surface of the engaging piece 11.
The lower part of the rotating body can be pushed into the first recess against the bias of the spring piece, and the engagement plate pushes up the engagement piece as a result of the pushing, so that the aforementioned first and second engagement protrusions 8,
12 is disengaged, and when the above push is released, the spring piece 1
8 and 18, the rotating body returns to its original position.

The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, in which the shaft portion of the rotating body is formed by C-shaped spring pieces 18, 18, and the shaft portion is bored into the left and right side wall surfaces of the first recessed portion of the front wall of the compact main body. The spring piece is fitted into the second recesses 9, 9, and one end of the spring piece is attached to the end face of the rotating body, and the other end is fixed to the inner surface of the second recess, so that the rotating body is engaged with the compact body and the lid body. When the lower part is pushed in to remove it, when the push is released, the rotating body immediately returns to its original state due to the action of the spring piece and does not rotate unless the lower part is pushed. Therefore, the rattling of the rotating body mentioned at the beginning can be prevented, and the user's trust in the product can be increased. In addition, since the C-shaped spring piece is curved into a C-shape, it can be fitted into the second recess and serve as the shaft, and can have the necessary length as a spring piece.
Further, the spring piece can be integrally molded with the rotating body from a synthetic resin material, and the cost can be reduced.
