Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is a lid for a compact container that can be easily opened with one touch by pushing hook members arranged on both sides of the container body. This relates to a locking device.

Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and ideas A conventionally known compact container in which the lid can be opened by pushing pressing members arranged on both sides of the container body is disclosed in Utility Model Application No. 57-129700. (Utility Model Application No. 59-34710), this container has a locking structure for the lid body and a means for releasing the locking state, which are separated and installed in separate locations. The release operation of the locked state cannot be applied directly to the locking structure of the lid body, but rather acts indirectly, which is not necessarily satisfactory from the viewpoint of light and simple release of the lid body. do not have.

The object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks and to provide a lid locking device that allows the lid to be opened easily with one touch by pressing the hook member.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention attempts to solve the conventional drawbacks by incorporating the locking means of the lid body and its release means into one structure without separating them separately. A lid body 2 is pivotably mounted on a shaped body 1 so as to be freely openable and closable, and hook rods 3 having claws 3' are provided on both sides of the lid body 2 to protrude downward,
A recess 4 is formed in both side edges 1' of the main body 1, and a support shaft 8 protruding from one end of a slightly resilient hook member 6 made of synthetic resin is formed in one side of the recess 4. The hook member 6 is engaged with the stop hole 5 in the recess 4.
The inner surface of the hook member 6 has an upper half formed into a vertical surface 6' and a lower half formed into a downwardly sloped slope 6'', so that when the lid body 2 is closed, The claw 3' of the hook rod 3 is engaged with a locking piece 11 protruding from the wall surface of the recess 4, and the lower end of the hook rod 3 is in contact with the slope 6'' of the hook member. This is a summary.

Function: When the lid body 2 is closed, the hook rod 3 is located in the recess 4 and interposed between the hook member 6 and the wall of the recess 4, and the hook 3' of the hook rod 3 is engaged. The lid is held in the closed state by being locked to the piece 11, and in this state, when the hook member 6 is pressed with a fingertip in the direction of the arrow in FIG. Therefore, the slope portion 6' of the hook member 6 directly pushes up the hook rod 3, and the claw 3' separates from the locking piece 11, allowing the lid 2 to be released.

Embodiments The details of the present invention will be explained below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. 1 is a shallow dish-shaped main body, 2 is a lid that is pivoted to the main body 1 so that it can be opened and closed, and 3 is both side edges of the lid 2. a hook rod having a claw 3' protruding downward at 2';
4 is a recess formed in both side edges 1' of the main body 1, 5 is a locking hole having a spherical recess 5' in the upper part,
The locking hole 5 is connected to the large diameter portion 5 through a stepped portion 5″ at the lower part.
It consists of a structure with perforations. Reference numeral 6 is a hook member made of synthetic resin and having some elasticity, and a semicircular engagement member 7 formed at one end of this hook member 6 is engaged with the recess 5', and the engagement member 7 is
A support shaft 8 protruding from the lower part of the support shaft 8 is engaged with the locking hole 5, and a compressible bulge 9 formed by dividing a vertical split 10 connected to the lower part of the support shaft 8 is connected to the large diameter part. 5. The inner surface of the hook member 6 has an upper half formed as a vertical surface 6' and a lower half formed as an inclined surface 6'' that slopes downward from the vertical surface 6'.11
indicates a locking piece protruding from the wall surface of the recess 4.

Effects of the invention As described above, the present invention has a concave portion 4 bored in both side edges 1' of the main body 1, and a supporting shaft 8 protruding from one end of a slightly elastic hook member 6 made of synthetic resin.
A hook member 6 is set in the recess 4 so as to be engaged with a locking hole 5 drilled in one side, and the hook member 6 is designed to rotate slightly about the support shaft 8 when pressed. Inward immersion when pressed and recovery when the pressure is released are performed reliably and effectively,
Further, the inner surface of the hook member 6 has an upper half formed as a vertical surface 6' and a lower half formed as a downwardly inclined slope 6'', and the lower end of the hook rod 3 comes into contact with this slope 6''. When the hook member 6 is pressed, the slope portion 6'' directly pushes up the hook rod 3, so that the engagement between the hook 3' and the locking piece 11 can be easily and easily released. This has the advantage that the lid 2 can be opened easily with a single touch operation.Furthermore, the present invention is composed of three parts, the main body 1, the lid 2, and the hook member 6, and is easy to assemble. This has the advantage that a container that is convenient to use and whose lid can be opened with a single touch operation can be manufactured at a low cost.
