DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of a storage container according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a container body, which is formed by forming a concave portion 3 that is long in the left-right direction on the rear wall portion of the peripheral wall 2 and cutting the wall portion from the upper end surface of the rear wall central portion to the front end surface of the bottom wall of the concave portion. An opening 4 for swinging the hinge part with an open end face is formed. In addition, a first fitting groove 5 having an open upper end surface is formed at the center of the inner surface of the front wall of the recess 3, and an upper end open first member is fitted into which the lower peripheral surface of the coin 6 can be fitted into the central portion of the first fitting groove. Two fitting grooves 7 are provided vertically.
[0009]
Reference numeral 10 denotes a lid, and a bearing portion 12 is suspended from the inner surface of the central portion of the rear wall portion of the peripheral wall 11 to form an opening portion 13 having an open lower end surface in the bearing portion, and on both left and right sides of the opening portion. Auxiliary openings 14 and 14 with open end faces are formed. Further, a window portion 16 that opens into the opening portion 13 and that can be fitted to the rear peripheral surface of the coin 15 is formed in the central portion of the upper portion of the front wall of the bearing portion 12.
Reference numeral 17 denotes a mirror attached to the lower surface of the top wall of the lid 10.
[0010]
Reference numeral 20 denotes a hinge portion, which is formed by a hinge assembly including a bearing plate 21 fitted into the recess 3 of the container body 1 and a shaft portion 27 pivotally attached to the bearing plate.
The bearing plate 21 of the hinge assembly has the pin hole forming thick plate portion 23 outward in the left-right direction from both left and right portions of the rear surface of the engagement plate portion 22 engaged in the first fitting groove 5 of the container body recess 3. The first pin holes 23a are formed in the left and right directions so as to project, and the two thick plate portions 23 are fitted into the left and right portions of the container body recess 3. Further, a protruding protrusion 24 is provided in the left and right direction from the front surface of the central portion above the engaging plate 22, and the protruding protrusion is fitted into the second fitting groove 7. Further, the split plate 25 having an open upper end surface is provided vertically in the left and right engaging plate portions of the protrusion preventing protrusion 24, and the engaging plate portion between these split grooves is formed in the elastic plate portion 26.
[0011]
The shaft portion 27 of the hinge assembly has a shaft rod 28 fitted between the pair of left and right pin hole forming thick plate portions 23, and a second pin hole 28a in the left-right direction is formed in the shaft rod. The pins 29, 29 are inserted into the second pin hole 28a from the left and right first pin holes 23a to pivotally attach the shaft rod 28 to the pin hole forming thick plate portion 23, and to the left and right of the upper surface of the shaft rod 28. The protrusions 30 and 30 are protruded from both parts, and the coin-engaging elastic protrusion 31 is erected from the central part, and the coin-engaging elastic protrusion 31 is inserted into the opening 13 of the lid 10. The protrusions 30 and 30 are fitted into the auxiliary openings 14 and 14, respectively.
The coin engaging surface on the upper part of the coin engaging elastic protrusion 31 is inclined in the coin 15 fitting direction.
[0012]
Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.
When the storage container configured as described above is discarded, it is disassembled from the viewpoint of separate collection.
First, the rear portion of the coin 15 is fitted into the window portion 16 of the bearing portion 12 and is engaged with the inclined surface of the coin engaging elastic protrusion 31, whereby the bearing portion 12 and the coin engaging elastic protrusion 31 are engaged. The lid 10 is separated from the container body 1 by being separated from both the protrusions 30 and 30.
[0013]
Next, by fitting the lower portion of the coin 6 to the upper end portion of the second fitting groove 7 and engaging the withdrawal preventing protrusion 24, the shaft portion 27 is moved in a state where the elastic plate portion 26 is elastically deformed rearward. The hinge assembly is separated from the container main body 1 by gripping and releasing the bearing plate 21 upward from the recess 3.
Further, the mirror 17 is removed from the lid 10, and the storage container is disassembled into four parts: the lid 10, the hinge assembly, the container body 1, and the mirror 17.
The order of disassembly is not limited to the above, and the container body 1 can be detached from the hinge assembly first.
[0014]
【The invention's effect】
In the first aspect of the present invention, since the hinge portion is formed of a hinge assembly and can be detached from the lid body and the container main body by using coins, when the storage container is discarded, It can be easily disassembled into a hinge assembly and container body, thus facilitating separate collection.
Moreover, since the pin hole for inserting the pin is not formed in the container main body, the appearance is improved.
Further, since the hinge portion is modularized as a hinge assembly, it can be used for various kinds of storage containers, and therefore, the cost can be reduced.
[0015]
According to the second aspect of the present invention, the auxiliary opening is formed, the protrusions are erected from the left and right parts of the shaft rod, and both the protrusions are fitted into the auxiliary opening. The connection with the body becomes stronger.
