Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a powder box.
  • a makeup box such as that described in Chinese Patent No. CN203424525U granted on Feb. 12, 2014, according to the prior art typically comprises a bottom box, an inner box having an interior cavity, a box cover connected with the bottom box, an inner box cover being sealingly provided over the interior cavity of the inner box between the bottom box and the box cover, a snap frame being provided between the bottom box and the inner box, a circle of raised seal rib being provided at the periphery of the lower surface of the inner box cover, and, correspondingly, a circle of seal groove being provided at the periphery of the inner box.
  • the seal groove and the seal rib are fastened by each other.
  • the sealing of the inner box cover and the inner box generally is achieved by the cooperation of the seal rib and the seal groove. Therefore, during processing the box body, there is high requirement for machining precision of the seal rib and the seal groove. If deviations occur in processing of the seal rib and the seal groove, the inner box cover and the inner box may be poorly sealed or even impossible to close.
  • the present invention thus has an object of providing a powder box that can be effectively sealed while being efficient in manufacture and assembly.
  • an embodiment of the powder box has a first box body with an interior cavity and an upward facing opening, a first box cover capable of lidding over the first box body and covering the opening, and a circle of a protruding portion or protruding portions being formed on an upper surface of the first box body and protruding upwards.
  • the phrase capable of lidding shall mean to be capable of forming a lid.
  • the material of the lower surface of the first box cover is an elastomeric material capable of elastic deformation. With that, the protruding portions contact with the lower surface of the first box cover and cause elastic deformation of the lower surface of the first box cover when the first box cover lids over the box body.
  • the protruding portions can have a cross section with a trapezoid shape or an arch shape, and that shape can gradually narrow from bottom to top.
  • the elastomeric material of the lower surface of the first box cover could, by way of example and not limitation, be thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), or thermoplastic rubber (TPR), or any other elastomeric material except as the same may be expressly limited by the claims.
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • TPU thermoplastic polyurethane
  • TPR thermoplastic rubber
  • the lower surface of the first box cover could be a flat surface.
  • the powder box further comprises a second box body detachably disposed external to the first box body.
  • a second box cover can be connected with the second box body to be capable of lidding over the first box cover.
  • Manifestations of the powder box can have a side of the first box body and a side of the first box cover hinged by a first hinge and a side of the second box body and a side of the second box cover hinged by a second hinge.
  • the second box body can be formed with a first containing groove for accommodating the first hinge and a second containing groove for accommodating the second hinge.
  • the first containing groove and the second containing groove can be staggered from each other.
  • a plurality of first hook portions can be formed on the first box cover and can extend downward and be formed with hook feet.
  • a plurality of first grooves corresponding in location and otherwise to the first hook portions can be formed on the first box body or between the first box body and the second box body.
  • at least one second hook portion can be formed on the second box cover and can extend downward and be formed with hook feet.
  • At least one second groove corresponding in location and otherwise to the second hook portions can be formed on the second box body.
  • a containing space is formed on the upper surface of the first box cover for receiving, for example, a powder puff.
  • a mirror can be disposed, such as by fastening or otherwise, on the lower surface of the second box cover.
  • orientation words such as “front”, “back”, “left”, “right”, “over”, “on”, “upper”, “below”, “lower”, “downward”, “upward”, etc. are to define the orientation when the powder box is disposed upright for normal use.
  • the powder box is disposed upright in, for example, FIGS. 4 and 5 .
  • the scope of the present invention is not limited to the technical schemes formed by specific combination of the above-mentioned technical features.
  • the scope of the invention should be interpreted to cover the technical schemes formed by any combination of the above-mentioned technical features and equivalents thereof.
  • the technical schemes formed by interchanging the above-mentioned technical features and the technical features with similar functions to the disclosed components of the present application, but not limited thereto, are included in the scope of the invention except as it might be expressly limited by the claims.
  • the present powder box has advantages over the prior art. For instance, by employing the elastomeric material as the material of the lower surface of the first box cover and providing a circle of a protruding portion or portions on the upper surface of the first box body, the sealing of the first box body and the first box cover may be achieved by the cooperation of the protruding portions and the elastomeric material. Accordingly, the first box body and the first box cover of the present powder box are simple to process and have good sealing effect.
  • FIG. 1 is an exploded view of a powder box according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the powder box in an open state
