- Each of the adhesive layer 30 and the adhesive layer 31 may, for example, be a layer of an adhesive; however, this is not limiting, and the fixed sheet section 20 a can be fixed to the lid 12 using a double-sided adhesive tape. Still alternatively, the fixed sheet section 20 a can be fixed to the lid 12 by ultrasonic joining, etc.
- FIG. 4 shows a state where the lid 12 is set in the open position, as described previously.
- the user when the user does makeup using the cosmetic case 10 , first, the user holds the main body 11 from below with the left hand M, for example, and sets the lid 12 in the open position.
- the separator sheet section 20 c of the protective sheet 20 is in the state shown in FIG. 1 . That is, when the lid 12 is in the closed position, the separator sheet section 20 c is positioned between the main body 11 and the mirror 18 , thereby preventing the mirror 18 from being smudged with the cosmetics 16 and 17 .
- the separator sheet section 20 c in the state shown in FIG. 1 is swung by flipping the edge 20 d of the separator sheet section 20 c with the thumb P of the left hand M, for example, and pushing and opening the separator sheet section 20 c into a position where the front side of the mirror 18 is open, as shown in FIG. 4 . That is, at this time, the separator sheet section 20 c is deformed to a position outside an area between the main body 11 and the mirror 18 . This allows the user to do makeup using the cosmetic 16 or 17 , or a makeup tool, if the makeup tool is contained in the receptacle 11 b or 11 c , as described previously, while looking at the mirror 18 .
- the folding line between the separator sheet section 20 c and the intermediate section 20 b (the portion connecting the separator sheet section 20 c and the intermediate section 20 b ) is set on the left side of the mirror 18 .
- the user holding the main body 11 with the left hand M which is not used to operate the makeup tool, can easily flip the separator sheet section 20 c with the thumb P of the left hand M, as described previously.
- the folding line may not necessarily be set on the left side of the mirror 18 , and may be set on the right side, the upper side, or the lower side of the mirror 18 .
- a cosmetic case suitable for left-handed people can be provided.
- the separator sheet section 20 c can be positioned in the close vicinity of the mirror 18 when the fixed sheet section 20 a is fixed to the back side of the mirror 18 .
- information may be included on separator sheet section 20 c , and the user can easily see and read the information during makeup while looking at the mirror 18 when the separator sheet section 20 c is positioned in the close vicinity of the mirror 18 .
- the separator sheet section 20 c is moved to a position where the separator sheet section 20 c faces the mirror 18 , and then the lid 12 is closed.
- This arrangement reduces possibility of the finger of hand of the user being smudged with the cosmetics 16 and 17 , when compared to conventional devices where the separator sheet section 20 c is moved to a position where the separator sheet section 20 c faces the cosmetics 16 and 17 .
- the mirror 18 is significantly larger than the inner trays 14 and 15 . Fixing the fixed sheet section 20 a to the back side of the mirror 18 allows a wider adhesion space, welding space, or the like, to fix the fixed sheet section 20 a , thereby allowing stable adhesion of the protective sheet 20 .
- the two corners 20 e and 20 f of the separator sheet section 20 c are filleted, thereby protecting the user's hand or finger from the two corners 20 e and 20 f . Since the corners 20 e and 20 f of the separator sheet section 20 c are positioned farthest from the folding line between the separator sheet section 20 c and the intermediate section 20 b , it is highly possible that the corners 20 e and 20 f contact the cosmetics 16 and 17 when the separator sheet section 20 c is deformed. However, filleting or chamfering the corners 20 e and 20 f is useful to avoid such contact to prevent the separator sheet section 20 c from being smudged.
- the separator sheet section 20 c when no external force is applied, the separator sheet section 20 c does not become parallel to the mirror 18 and keeps a state where it is slightly angled relative to and spaced apart from the mirror 18 .
- the angle is around 15 to 20°, for example.
- the main body 11 includes a protrusion 11 f , which protrudes slightly outward from the hinge 13 , on the right side of the hinge 13 . From the state shown in FIG.
- the portion of the separator sheet section 20 c in the vicinity of the corner 20 f is kept lightly engaged with the protrusion 11 f . From this state, the edge 20 d of the separator sheet section 20 c is flipped with the thumb P of the left hand M, as described previously, and the portion of the separator sheet section 20 c in the vicinity of the corner 20 f is elastically deformed to be easily released from the protrusion 11 f.
- the fixed sheet section 20 a of the protective sheet 20 includes an opening 20 h at the center.
- the fixed sheet section 20 a around the opening 20 h is adhered to the lid 12 via the adhesive layer 30 , and thus fixed to the inner surface of the lid 12 .
- the mirror 18 is adhered and fixed to the lid 12 via the adhesive layer 31 through the opening 20 h .
- the protective sheet 20 can be fixed to the lid 12 by the mirror 18 and the adhesive layer 31 , and therefore the adhesive layer 30 can be omitted.
- the cosmetic case of the disclosure may employ an arrangement where the separator sheet section 20 c is directly foldably connected to the fixed sheet section 20 a .
- FIG. 7 illustrates one example of the protective sheet having such an arrangement.
- the protective sheet 120 shown in FIG. 7 is arranged such that the intermediate section 20 b is omitted from the protective sheet 20 shown in FIG. 2 .
- This protective sheet 120 is fixed to the lid 12 in the manner shown in FIG. 8 , for example.
- a structure for fixing the protective sheet 120 is basically the same as the structure for fixing the protective sheet 20 shown in FIG. 2 , except that the protective sheet 120 does not include the intermediate section 20 b.
- a protective sheet 220 shown in FIG. 9 includes information 201 and 202 on one side of the separator sheet section 20 c . It should be noted that the “one side” in this example refers to one of two sides of the separator sheet section 20 c facing the mirror 18 when the separator sheet section 20 c is positioned between the main body 11 and the mirror 18 .
- the information 201 and 202 may be included on the other side (i.e., the side facing away from the mirror 18 when the separator sheet section 20 c is positioned between the main body 11 and the mirror 18 ) of the separator sheet section 20 c .
- the information 201 and 202 is included on the above one side, the user can easily see the information 201 and 202 when the user is doing makeup while looking at the mirror 18 in a state where the separator sheet section 20 c is swung from the position where it faces the mirror 18 .
- possibility of the information 201 and 202 being smudged with the cosmetics 16 and 17 is reduced.

The cosmetic case includes: a body including a container for containing a cosmetic; a lid coupled to the body such that the body is openable and closable with the lid; a mirror attached to the inner surface of the lid; and a protective sheet including a portion serving as a separator between the body and the mirror, wherein the protective sheet includes a fixed section at least partially fixed between the lid and the mirror, and a separator section foldably connected to the fixed section such that the separator section is positioned between the body and the mirror when the body is closed with the lid.
Description
- This application is a National Phase Entry of PCT International Application No. PCT/JP2016/002681 filed on Jun. 2, 2016, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to Japanese Patent Application 2015-113819 filed on Jun. 4, 2015. Each of the above applications is hereby expressly incorporated by reference, in its entirety, into the present application.
- The present disclosure relates to a cosmetic case, and more particularly to a cosmetic case including a main body containing a cosmetic, a lid to open and close the main body, a mirror attached to the inner surface of the lid, and a protective sheet serving as a separator between the main body and the mirror.
- Conventionally, cosmetic cases including a main body, a lid, a mirror, and a protective sheet, as described above, are known, as taught in Patent Literature 1 and 2 (Japanese Patent No. 4216619 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2007-167341, respectively), for example. With such cosmetic cases including the protective sheet, the protective sheet prevents the mirror attached to the inner surface of the lid from being smudged with a cosmetic, such as a foundation, contained in the main body.
- Further, the conventional cosmetic cases as described above may include information, which shows how to handle the cosmetic or the cosmetic case, on a portion of the protective sheet serving as a separator between the main body and the mirror, as taught in Patent Literature 1.
- In many of the conventional cosmetic cases including a main body, a lid, a mirror, and a protective sheet, as described above, one portion (a fixed section) of the protective sheet is fixed to the main body at a position between the inner tray containing a cosmetic and the main body, and the other portion (a separator section) of the protective sheet connected to the one portion serves as a separator between the main body and the mirror. However, the conventional cosmetic cases arranged as described above have the following problems.
- (1) When the separator section of the protective sheet is set in a position to serve as a separator between the main body and the mirror, the operation is performed immediately above the inner tray, and the finger or hand of the user tends to be smudged with the cosmetic contained in the inner tray.
- (2) It is difficult to move the separator section of the protective sheet with one hand while holding the main body with the one hand.
- (3) In a case where information is included on the separator section of the protective sheet, the position of the information is in the vicinity of the inner tray and away from the mirror, and it is difficult for the user to see the information while doing makeup while looking at the mirror.
- In view of the above-described circumstances, the present disclosure is directed to providing a cosmetic case that allows easily moving the separator section of the protective sheet with one hand and reduces possibility of the finger or hand of the user being smudged with the cosmetic.
- A cosmetic case according to the disclosure comprises:
- a main body comprising a container for containing a cosmetic;
- a lid coupled to the main body such that the main body is openable and closable with the lid;
- a mirror attached to an inner surface of the lid; and
- a protective sheet comprising a portion serving as a separator between the main body and the mirror,
- wherein the protective sheet comprises a fixed sheet section at least partially fixed between the lid and the mirror, and a separator sheet section foldably connected to the fixed sheet section such that the separator sheet section is positioned between the main body and the mirror when the main body is closed with the lid.
- It should be noted that the separator sheet section being “foldably connected to the fixed sheet section” encompasses both the cases where the separator sheet section is directly foldably connected to the fixed sheet section and where the separator sheet section is indirectly foldably connected to the fixed sheet section via another sheet section.
- As one example of the latter of the above-described two cases, it is desirable that the protective sheet of the cosmetic case of the disclosure comprise an intermediate section extending between the fixed sheet section and the separator sheet section along an end face of the mirror and has a substantially U-shaped cross-section.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, it is desirable that the fixed sheet section and the separator sheet section be connected to each other on the left side of the mirror. It should be noted that the “left side” in this case refers to the left side of the mirror on the open lid viewed from the main body side while the main body is held in a substantially horizontal orientation in a usual manner when the cosmetic case is used.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, it is desirable that at least the separator sheet section of the protective sheet comprise a transparent material.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, it is desirable that information be included on the separator sheet section.
- It is desirable that such information be included on one of two sides of the separator sheet section facing the mirror when the separator sheet section is positioned between the main body and the mirror.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, it is desirable that the separator sheet section be deformable with an external force to a position outside an area between the main body and the mirror.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, in a case where the separator sheet section is substantially rectangular, it is desirable that at least one of two corners of an edge of the separator sheet section opposite from an edge of the separator sheet section connected to the fixed sheet section be filleted or chamfered.
- In the cosmetic case of the disclosure, it is desirable that the separator sheet section comprise a recess for avoiding interference with a protrusion of the main body when the separator sheet section is folded relative to the fixed sheet section.
- With the cosmetic case of the disclosure, wherein the protective sheet includes a fixed sheet section at least partially fixed between the lid and the mirror and a separator sheet section foldably connected to the fixed sheet section such that the separator sheet section is positioned between the main body and the mirror when the main body is closed with the lid, the separator sheet section prevents the mirror from being smudged with the cosmetic contained in the main body, as with conventional devices.
- Further, with the protective sheet having the above-described arrangement, operation to set the separator sheet section of the protective sheet in a position to serve as a separator between the main body and the mirror is performed above the mirror.

FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of acosmetic case 10 according to one embodiment of the disclosure. Thecosmetic case 10 of this embodiment includes amain body 11, and alid 12 coupled to themain body 11 such that themain body 11 is openable and closable with thelid 12. As one example, each of themain body 11 and thelid 12 is made of a synthetic resin, or the like, and has a thin and substantially rectangular parallelepiped outer shape, for example. Thelid 12 is coupled to themain body 11 via ahinge 13 such that thelid 12 can swing in the direction of arrow A shown in the drawing, and can be set in an open state, in which themain body 11 is open upward, as shown in the drawing, and in a closed state, in which themain body 11 is closed from above. - It should be noted that the directions indicated by the terms such as “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, “front”, etc., in the description of embodiments of the disclosure refer to such directions relative to a
mirror 18 on theopen lid 12 viewed from themain body 11 side while themain body 11 is held in a substantially horizontal orientation in a usual manner when thecosmetic case 10 is used. - The
main body 11 includesreceptacles upper surface 11 a. Thereceptacles inner trays inner trays receptacles receptacles - The
inner trays cosmetics cosmetics inner trays receptacles - Still further, without using the
inner tray receptacles main body 11 formed in such a manner. - The
lid 12 includes an engagingprotrusion 12 a formed in the vicinity of the upper end thereof, and themain body 11 includes an engagingportion 11 d formed in the vicinity of the front end thereof. When theupper surface 11 a ofmain body 11 is closed with thelid 12, the engagingprotrusion 12 a engages with the engagingportion 11 d to maintain the closed state. This engaged state is disengaged when the engagingportion 11 d is pressed toward the hinge 13 (in the direction of arrow B), for example. In the disengaged state, thelid 12 can be swung into the open state, in which theupper surface 11 a of themain body 11 is open, as shown inFIG. 1 . - The
mirror 18, which is used during makeup, is attached to the inner surface of thelid 12. As one example, themirror 18 has a rectangular shape, so as to conform to the shape of thelid 12. Further, aprotective sheet 20 is fixed to thelid 12.FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of theprotective sheet 20, andFIG. 3 schematically illustrates a structure for fixing theprotective sheet 20. Now, theprotective sheet 20 is described in detail with reference toFIGS. 2 and 3 . - As shown in
FIG. 2 , theprotective sheet 20 includes three sections connected to one another, namely, afixed sheet section 20 a, anintermediate section 20 b, and aseparator sheet section 20 c, and has a substantially U-shaped cross-section. That is, theseparator sheet section 20 c is connected to the fixedsheet section 20 a via theintermediate section 20 b. - As one example, the fixed
sheet section 20 a has a substantially rectangular outer peripheral edge. Theseparator sheet section 20 c is also substantially rectangular, as one example, where twocorners edge 20 d of theseparator sheet section 20 c opposite from an edge of theseparator sheet section 20 c connected to the fixedsheet section 20 a are filleted. Further, the lower edge (the edge positioned on the lower side when thecosmetic case 10 is used) of theseparator sheet section 20 c includes arecess 20 g in the vicinity of theintermediate section 20 b. It should be noted that the twocorners - The
protective sheet 20 having the above-described shape is made of a thin transparent synthetic resin, for example, and the entire part thereof is deformable. When an external force is applied to theseparator sheet section 20 c of theprotective sheet 20, theseparator sheet section 20 c can deform and swing in the direction of arrow C shown in the drawing about the folding line between theseparator sheet section 20 c and theintermediate section 20 b. It should be noted that theprotective sheet 20 made of a transparent material, as described above, facilitates visual recognition of themirror 18; however, this is not limiting and theprotective sheet 20 may be made of a semi-transparent or opaque material. - The
protective sheet 20 is fixed to thelid 12 in the manner as shown inFIG. 3 .FIG. 3 shows a cross section viewed from above of the center portion in the up-down direction of thelid 12 with theprotective sheet 20 fixed thereto.FIG. 3 is a schematic representation and the elements shown are not to scale. As shown, the fixedsheet section 20 a is adhered to thelid 12 with anadhesive layer 30 to be fixed to the inner surface of thelid 12. Themirror 18 is adhered and fixed to the fixedsheet section 20 a via anadhesive layer 31. It should be noted that an end face of themirror 18 may be fixed, such as adhered, to theintermediate section 20 b, as necessary. - Each of the
adhesive layer 30 and theadhesive layer 31 may, for example, be a layer of an adhesive; however, this is not limiting, and the fixedsheet section 20 a can be fixed to thelid 12 using a double-sided adhesive tape. Still alternatively, the fixedsheet section 20 a can be fixed to thelid 12 by ultrasonic joining, etc. - Now, operation of the
cosmetic case 10 having the above-described arrangement is described with reference toFIG. 4 .FIG. 4 shows a state where thelid 12 is set in the open position, as described previously. As shown, when the user does makeup using thecosmetic case 10, first, the user holds themain body 11 from below with the left hand M, for example, and sets thelid 12 in the open position. At this time, theseparator sheet section 20 c of theprotective sheet 20 is in the state shown inFIG. 1 . That is, when thelid 12 is in the closed position, theseparator sheet section 20 c is positioned between themain body 11 and themirror 18, thereby preventing themirror 18 from being smudged with thecosmetics - After the user sets the
lid 12 in the open position, theseparator sheet section 20 c in the state shown inFIG. 1 is swung by flipping theedge 20 d of theseparator sheet section 20 c with the thumb P of the left hand M, for example, and pushing and opening theseparator sheet section 20 c into a position where the front side of themirror 18 is open, as shown inFIG. 4 . That is, at this time, theseparator sheet section 20 c is deformed to a position outside an area between themain body 11 and themirror 18. This allows the user to do makeup using the cosmetic 16 or 17, or a makeup tool, if the makeup tool is contained in thereceptacle mirror 18. - It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the folding line between the
separator sheet section 20 c and theintermediate section 20 b (the portion connecting theseparator sheet section 20 c and theintermediate section 20 b) is set on the left side of themirror 18. With this arrangement, the user holding themain body 11 with the left hand M, which is not used to operate the makeup tool, can easily flip theseparator sheet section 20 c with the thumb P of the left hand M, as described previously. However, the folding line may not necessarily be set on the left side of themirror 18, and may be set on the right side, the upper side, or the lower side of themirror 18. In particular, in the case where the folding line is set on the right side of themirror 18, a cosmetic case suitable for left-handed people can be provided. - Regardless of on which side of the
mirror 18 the folding line is set, theseparator sheet section 20 c can be positioned in the close vicinity of themirror 18 when the fixedsheet section 20 a is fixed to the back side of themirror 18. As described later, information may be included onseparator sheet section 20 c, and the user can easily see and read the information during makeup while looking at themirror 18 when theseparator sheet section 20 c is positioned in the close vicinity of themirror 18. - To set the
lid 12 in the closed state, first, theseparator sheet section 20 c is moved to a position where theseparator sheet section 20 c faces themirror 18, and then thelid 12 is closed. This arrangement reduces possibility of the finger of hand of the user being smudged with thecosmetics separator sheet section 20 c is moved to a position where theseparator sheet section 20 c faces thecosmetics - In general, the
mirror 18 is significantly larger than theinner trays sheet section 20 a to the back side of themirror 18 allows a wider adhesion space, welding space, or the like, to fix the fixedsheet section 20 a, thereby allowing stable adhesion of theprotective sheet 20. - Further, in this embodiment, the two
corners separator sheet section 20 c are filleted, thereby protecting the user's hand or finger from the twocorners corners separator sheet section 20 c are positioned farthest from the folding line between theseparator sheet section 20 c and theintermediate section 20 b, it is highly possible that thecorners cosmetics separator sheet section 20 c is deformed. However, filleting or chamfering thecorners separator sheet section 20 c from being smudged. - It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when no external force is applied, the
separator sheet section 20 c does not become parallel to themirror 18 and keeps a state where it is slightly angled relative to and spaced apart from themirror 18. The angle is around 15 to 20°, for example. Further, as shown inFIGS. 1 and 4 , themain body 11 includes aprotrusion 11 f, which protrudes slightly outward from thehinge 13, on the right side of thehinge 13. From the state shown inFIG. 4 , when thelid 12 is swung in the closing direction with theseparator sheet section 20 c being lightly pressed against themirror 18, a portion of theseparator sheet section 20 c in the vicinity of thecorner 20 f engages with theprotrusion 11 f and theseparator sheet section 20 c is pushed toward themirror 18. Then, when thelid 12 is set in the closed position, theseparator sheet section 20 c is positioned between themain body 11 and themirror 18. - Thereafter, when the
lid 12 is swung into the open position during use of thecosmetic case 10, the portion of theseparator sheet section 20 c in the vicinity of thecorner 20 f is kept lightly engaged with theprotrusion 11 f. From this state, theedge 20 d of theseparator sheet section 20 c is flipped with the thumb P of the left hand M, as described previously, and the portion of theseparator sheet section 20 c in the vicinity of thecorner 20 f is elastically deformed to be easily released from theprotrusion 11 f. - Further, as shown in
FIGS. 1 and 4 , themain body 11 includes aprotrusion 11 g, which protrudes slightly outward from thehinge 13, on the left side of thehinge 13, and theseparator sheet section 20 c includes therecess 20 g, as described previously, correspondingly to theprotrusion 11 g. When theseparator sheet section 20 c is swung, theprotrusion 11 g makes relative movement in therecess 20 g, thereby avoiding interference between theseparator sheet section 20 c and theprotrusion 11 g. - Now, another example of the structure for fixing the
protective sheet 20 and themirror 18 to thelid 12 is described with reference toFIGS. 5 and 6 . It should be noted that elements shown inFIGS. 5 and 6 and the following drawings equivalent to those already described are denoted by the same reference numerals, and are not described again, unless otherwise necessary. In this example, as shown inFIG. 5 , the fixedsheet section 20 a of theprotective sheet 20 includes anopening 20 h at the center. As shown inFIG. 6 , the fixedsheet section 20 a around theopening 20 h is adhered to thelid 12 via theadhesive layer 30, and thus fixed to the inner surface of thelid 12. Themirror 18 is adhered and fixed to thelid 12 via theadhesive layer 31 through theopening 20 h. In this case, theprotective sheet 20 can be fixed to thelid 12 by themirror 18 and theadhesive layer 31, and therefore theadhesive layer 30 can be omitted. - In the above-described embodiment, the
separator sheet section 20 c is foldably connected to theintermediate section 20 b. It should be noted that “theseparator sheet section 20 c foldably connected to the fixedsheet section 20 a” of the disclosure encompasses the case where theintermediate section 20 b is provided between theseparator sheet section 20 c and the fixedsheet section 20 a, as mentioned previously. - Alternatively, the cosmetic case of the disclosure may employ an arrangement where the
separator sheet section 20 c is directly foldably connected to the fixedsheet section 20 a.FIG. 7 illustrates one example of the protective sheet having such an arrangement. - The
protective sheet 120 shown inFIG. 7 is arranged such that theintermediate section 20 b is omitted from theprotective sheet 20 shown inFIG. 2 . Thisprotective sheet 120 is fixed to thelid 12 in the manner shown inFIG. 8 , for example. A structure for fixing theprotective sheet 120 is basically the same as the structure for fixing theprotective sheet 20 shown inFIG. 2 , except that theprotective sheet 120 does not include theintermediate section 20 b. - Next, still another embodiment of the protective sheet is described with reference to
FIG. 9 . Aprotective sheet 220 shown inFIG. 9 includesinformation separator sheet section 20 c. It should be noted that the “one side” in this example refers to one of two sides of theseparator sheet section 20 c facing themirror 18 when theseparator sheet section 20 c is positioned between themain body 11 and themirror 18. - The
information 201 may be graphical information showing how the cosmetics and/or makeup tools are arranged in the main body 11 (seeFIG. 1 , etc.), for example. On the other hand, theinformation 202 may be text information showing an explanation and/or caution about the cosmetics and/or makeup tools. Another example of thetext information 202 includes an explanation and/or caution about handling of the cosmetic case, such as “Please close the lid after placing the protective sheet inside.” - It should be noted that the
information mirror 18 when theseparator sheet section 20 c is positioned between themain body 11 and the mirror 18) of theseparator sheet section 20 c. However, when theinformation information mirror 18 in a state where theseparator sheet section 20 c is swung from the position where it faces themirror 18. Further, when theinformation information cosmetics
