Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cosmetic container in which a container main body and a lid are pivotally attached at the rear end portions thereof, and more particularly to a structure for reducing sound generated when the lid is closed.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Cosmetic containers are known as containers for storing cosmetics such as foundations and puffs. As this cosmetic container opening / closing locking structure, conventionally, a container body and a lid body for opening and closing the container body upper surface are pivotally attached to the rear end portions of the container body and attached to the front wall of the container body front portion. There is a configuration in which a hook suspended from the front portion of the lid body is engaged with the mating protrusion to hold the lid body in a closed state. Further, there is also known an apparatus in which a hook is engaged / disengaged via a pressing operation type operation piece instead of a cover being pushed up directly by an operation with a finger and forcibly engaging / disengaging the hook.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional cosmetic container, when the lid is closed, the lid and the container main body come into contact with each other when the hook on the front of the lid gets over the engaging protrusion on the front of the container main body and engages. There was a problem of making a harsh sound.
[0004]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and to reduce the sound generated when the hook gets over the engaging protrusion in the cosmetic container to close the lid.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, a cosmetic container according to the invention of claim 1 is a dish in which the container main body and the lid are pivotally attached at the rear end portions thereof, and the cosmetic is stored in a recess formed on the upper surface of the container main body. In the cosmetic container configured to hold the lid in a closed state by providing a frame and engaging a hook suspended from the lid front with respect to an engagement protrusion provided on the container body front, A sound absorbing member made of an elastic plate protrudes from a part of the edge of the dish frame, and when the hook rides on the engaging projection to close the lid and enters the engaging process on the descending slope, the lid and the container A small piece that elastically bends in the vertical direction, in which the sound absorbing member is brought into contact with the lid to prevent contact with the main body, and the elastic plate is formed by inserting two grooves in a part of the edge. And a protrusion formed on the upper surface of the small piece.
[0006]
This invention is a form (FIGS. 1-2) which provides the sound-absorbing member which consists of an elastic board in a dish frame .
[0007]
In a cosmetic container having a dish frame, since the contact between the container body and the lid when the hook is engaged with the engaging projection is blocked by the sound absorbing member made of an elastic plate, the lid when the hook is engaged Compared to conventional cosmetic containers, the sound generated when the container body comes into contact with the container body can be reduced to a softer sound.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on the illustrated embodiments. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the cosmetic container of the present invention. The cosmetic container of the present embodiment is configured by pivotally attaching a synthetic resin container main body 10 and a lid 20 so as to be openable and closable by hinges (not shown) at respective rear end portions.
[0009]
The container body 10 includes a recess 11 on the upper surface. Further, the container body 10 is provided with an operation recess 13 in the front wall 12a of the container body front portion 12, and the front wall 13a of the recess 13 is one of the constituent elements of the hook mechanism. A mating protrusion 14 is provided. As shown in FIG. 1 , the engaging protrusion 14 has a mountain-shaped cross section, and has an ascending slope 14a and a descending slope 14b. On the other hand, a hook 22, which is one of the components of the hook mechanism, is suspended from the front portion 21 of the lid 20 at the center of the lower surface thereof, and the claw portion 23 is an engaging protrusion 14 on the front portion of the container body 10. The lid 20 can be held in a closed state. A vanity mirror 24 is attached to the inner surface of the lid 20. This is an example in which a sound absorbing member 30 made of an elastic plate 33 is provided on the dish frame 40 of the container body 10. That is, a dish frame 40 for storing cosmetics is provided in the recess 11 formed in the container main body 10, and a part of the front edge 40 a of the dish frame 40, here a part corresponding to the center of the recess 13, is elastic. A plate 33 is provided, and thereby the sound absorbing member 30 protrudes in the vertical direction. In the case of this embodiment, the elastic plate 33 is a small piece that elastically bends in the vertical direction by inserting two grooves 41 from the front side into the edge of the synthetic resin dish frame 40, and at the tip of the upper surface thereof. The small protrusion 42 having a semicircular cross section is formed.
[0010]
The protruding amount of the elastic plate 33, that is, the height of the small protrusion 42 is determined when the hook 22 rides on the engaging protrusion 14 to close the lid 20 and enters the engaging process on the descending slope 14b. The elastic plate 33 is set in contact with the lid 20 so as to prevent contact between the lid 20 and the container body 10 and thus the dish frame 40.
[0011]
The operation of the above configuration is as follows. When closing the lid 20, first, the claw portion 23 of the hook 22 engages with the engaging protrusion 14 and rides on the rising slope 14 a. In this riding process, the lid 20 is still in a non-contact state with respect to the elastic plate 33. Next, the claw portion 23 of the hook 22 gets over the top of the engaging protrusion 14, and the hook 22 rapidly enters the engaging process at the descending slope 14b and tries to be stabilized. For this reason, if the elastic plate 33 of the sound absorbing member 30 does not exist, the claw portion 23 of the hook 22 engages with the engaging protrusion 14 to generate a so-called hook sound.
[0012]
However, in this embodiment, since the elastic plate 33 of the sound absorbing member 30 exists, when the hook 22 enters the engaging process at the descending slope 14b of the engaging protrusion 14 and attempts to stabilize, the hook 22 is shown in FIG. As described above, the lid 20 contacts the upper end of the elastic plate 33. Therefore, the impact caused by the contact between the lid 20 and the container body 10 during the engagement is sufficiently absorbed and attenuated by the elastic plate 33, and the sound is muted to the extent that the hook sound is not a concern.
[0013]
Thereafter, when the hand 20 is released to release the pressing force of the lid body 20, the lid body 20 is pushed up by the restoring force of the elastic plate 33, but the claw portion 23 of the hook 22 and the engagement protrusion 14 are more than this pushing-up force. Since the engaging force is stronger, the lid 20 is held in the closed state. In addition, what is necessary is just to put up a finger | toe in the recessed part 13 and push up the front part 21 of the cover body 20 when opening the cover body 20. FIG.
[0014]
【The invention's effect】
According to the cosmetic container of the first aspect of the present invention, the sound absorbing member made of an elastic plate protrudes from a part of the edge of the dish frame, and the elastic plate is provided with two grooves in a part of the edge. A small piece formed and elastically bent in the vertical direction, and a protrusion formed on the upper surface of the small piece, the hook rides on the engaging protrusion to close the lid, and in the engaging process on its descending slope Since the sound absorbing member is brought into contact with the lid so as to prevent contact between the lid and the container main body when entering, in a cosmetic container having a dish frame, the sound at the time of hook engagement is conventionally Compared to other cosmetic containers, it can be made smaller and softer.
