Definitions

  • This invention relates to compacts and cosmetic cases and more particularly to a compact or cosmetic case comprising one or more magnets for releasably securing within the case one or more pans of a magnetically attracted material which contains colored powders, creams or the like.
  • Cosmetic cases or compacts typically comprise a plastic casing which opens to expose a mirror and a select number of colored powders, creams or other cosmwtic materials. Such colored materials are typically cori.ained in metai pans which fit into individual preformed compartments within the casing. Additional compartments may be provided for containing an applicator such as a brush or a swabOther compartments may be provided for containing such things as colored pencils and the like or liquid cosmetic materials such as polishes or removers.
  • the favorite colors of a user include colors sold by more than one manufacturer.
  • a manufacturer's cosmetic case is designed to receive pans of colored powders, creams and the like which are sold by that manufacturer. Accordingly, pans of cosmetic material from one manufacturer's cosmetic case cannot be interchanged with pans from another manufacturer's cosmetic case.
  • this invention provides a cosmetic case or compact in which magnetically attracted pans containing cosmetic materials such as colored powders, creams and the like from various manufacturers can be mounted.
  • the cosmetic case comprises an openable casing having a hollow interior. At least one magnet, preferably in the form of a plate, is mounted within the casing for releasably securing at least one magnetically attracted pan containing colored powder, cream or the like within the casing.
  • the cosmetic case comprises a casing having two sections, e.g., an first section and a second section.
  • At least one magnet preferably in the shape of a flat plate, lines at least a portion of the inner surface of one section for releasably securing one or more magnetically attracted pans which contain colored powder, cream or the like in that section.
  • a mirror preferably lines at least a portion of the inner surface of the other section.
  • One or both sections may be subdivided into compartments for containing applicators or other articles.
  • the cosmetic case may also comprise one or more trays comprising one or more magnets for securing magnetically attracted pans of colored powder, cream or the like on the trays.
  • At least one magnet preferably in the form of a plate, lines at least a portion of both sections of the casing to allow magnetically attracted pans of colored powder, creams and the like to be mounted in either section.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a preferred cosmetic case constructed in accordance with the invention shown in an open arrangement;
  • FIG. 2 is a front cross-sectional view of the cosmetic case of FIG. 1 shown in the closed arrangement
  • FIG. 3 is a front cross-sectional view of the cosmetic case of FIG. 2 showing an alternate method of attaching the mirror and magnet;
  • FIG. 4 is a front cross-sectional view of a second preferred cosmetic case constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a third preferred cosmetic case constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 6 is a side cross-sectional view of a fourth preferred cosmetic case constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 A preferred compact or cosmetic case 9 made in accordance with the present invention is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and comprises a casing 10 having first and second sections 11 and 12.
  • the casing may be any size which is sufficient to contain at least one magnetically attracted pan containing a colored powder, cream or the like and may be made of any suitable material including rigid materials such as metals and rigid plastics or soft, pliable materials such as cloth, leather and flexible plastics.
  • the first section 11 and second section 12 are connected at their rear edges by hinges 13.
  • Latch members 14 and 16 are provided for releasably securing the first and second sections together when the housing 10 is closed.
  • Other means for connecting or securing the first and second sections together e.g., snaps, buttons, zippers, etc., may be used as desired.
  • the casing may have any suitable shape.
  • the first and second sections have a generally rectangular configuration. Other shapes or configurations, e.g., square, circular, oval, etc. may be used as desired. It is also to be understood that the first and second sections need not have the same thickness.
  • the cosmetic case comprises a mirror 17 which is mounted in the first section 11.
  • the mirror may be magnifying or non-magnifying as desired. Mounting may be by any conventional means such as bonding the mirror to the interior surface of the first section 11 by adhesives and the like. Alternatively, the mirror may be mounted in the first section 11 and secured by mechanical means, e.g., lip 18 as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the second section 12 is subdivided into two compartments, a first compartment 21 for containing pans of colored powders, creams and the like, and a second compartment 22 for containing other articles, e.g., applicators, brushes or the like.
  • a magnet 20 is fixedly attached to the interior surface of the first compartment 21.
  • the magnet 20 is in the form of a generally rectangular plate and covers substantially the entire interior surface of the first compartment 21. It is apparent that magnets of other shapes and sizes as well as multiple magnets may be used as desired. Attachment of the magnet 20 to the surface of the first compartment 21 may be by any suitable means such as glues, adhesives, or the like. Alternatively, the magnet may be incorporated in the wall of the casing or mounted and held in place by mechanical means such as by lip 23 as shown in FIG. 3.
  • Pans 24 containing a cosmetic material 26 such as colored powders, creams or the like are mounted in the first compartment 21 of the second section 12.
  • the pans 24 comprise a magnetically attracted material, i.e., a material such as iron which is capable of being attracted by a magnet.
  • the magnetically attracted pans are thus held in place with the casing 10 by magnetic attraction to magnet 20. Since it is not required that the pans fit into individual compartments, the pans 24 may be of any shape and size which fit into the first compartment 21. Accordingly, pans 24 of varying shapes and sizes from different cosmetic manufacturers may be incorporated into a single cosmetic case.
  • pans 24 may be removed for replacement or simply to facilitate access to the cosmetic material within the pan by simply lifting the pan off of magnet 20 and are easily mounted back in the casing by simply placing the pan onto magnet 20.
  • other articles such as applicators, enclosed containers of liquid cosmetic materials or any other articles may comprise magnetically attracted material and thus may be secured within the casing by magnet 20.
  • there may or may not be any need for additional compartments, such as second compartment 22.
  • FIG. 4 Another preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 4.
  • a magnet 30, generally in the form of a rectangular plate, is mounted in the first section 11 as well as in the second section 12.
  • Magnetically attracted pans 24 containing cosmetic material can thus be mounted within the casing in either the first section or second section.
  • magnet 30 extends over substantially all of the inner surface of the first section 11 as shown.
  • Mirror 31 comprising a plurality of small plugs 32 of a magnetically attracted material attached to its back surface is mounted in the first section by attraction between the plugs 32 and magnet 30.
  • the mirror 31, like the pans 24, can be easily removed and reinserted into the casing.
  • mirror 31 may be fixedly mounted in the first section 11.
  • magnet 30 would preferably extend only over some or all of the portion of the first section 11 not covered by mirror 31.
  • the compact or cosmetic case comprises a tray 40 which lifts out of the second section 12 as the cosmetic case is opened.
  • a magnet 41 in the form of a rectangular plate is mounted on the tray 40 to secure magnetically attracted pans 24 of cosmetic material thereto.
  • the space 44 beneath the tray 40 can be used to store other articles such as liquid polishes and removers, colored pencils, etc.
  • a second magnet may be mounted on the interior surface of the second section so that additional magnetically attracted pans of cosmetic material or any other article comprising a magnetically attracted material may be secured in the cosmetic case.
  • FIG. 6 A fourth preferred embodiment is shown in FIG. 6.
  • magnets 49 and 50 in the form of plates, are mounted on the inside surfaces of both the first and second sections 51 and 52 of casing 48, which, in this case, is made of a flexible material.
  • Magnetically attracted pans 53 of colored powder, creams, etc. are releasably secured to each magnet 49 and 50.
  • a partition 54 comprising a non-magnifying mirror 55 on one side and a magnifying mirror 56 on the other side divides the interior of the casing into two chambers 57 and 58 thereby separating the pans 53 secured to magnet 49 from the pans 53 secured to magnet 50.
  • pans 53 which contain colored powders to be secured in one chamber, e.g., chamber 57, and pans 53 which contain colored creams mounted in chamber 58. This effectively prevents powders of one color from inadvertently mixing with creams of another color.
  • Casing 48 is shown with an exterior pouch 59 for containing applicators or other small articles.
  • the cosmetic cases may have no mirrors or, if desired, may have a mirror on the exterior of the cosmetic case.
  • the casing may have more than two sections, if desired. Likewise, the sections need not be of the same size or shape. For example, one section may simply be a panel whose edges slidably engage grooves in the other section.
