Description
[Technical field] 【0001】 The present invention relates to a pallet container with lid that is useful for constructing multi-colored palettes. [Background technology] 【0002】 In point makeup such as eye shadow and blush, multiple colors are often used in one application. In addition, the color tone of point makeup is easily influenced by the fashion of the time. Furthermore, the makeup that users aim for is diversifying, and the colors that users want to use and how to use colors change daily. Therefore, it is convenient for users to have palettes of multiple colors in which cosmetics are filled by color in a cosmetic dish, but even if a user has a palette of multiple colors, it is difficult to keep them lined up, and they end up getting scattered in a cosmetic pouch. 【0003】 For this reason, the mainstream cosmetics for point makeup sold on the market are multi-color palettes in which multiple colors of cosmetic products selected by a cosmetics manufacturer based on a specific concept are contained in one compact case. 【0004】 However, the multiple color cosmetics contained in commercially available multi-color palettes are not necessarily the color combinations that users want to use, and cosmetics of colors that users do not use end up being discarded unused or barely used. 【0005】 In response to this, there is also a sales model in which the user can purchase the compact case that constitutes the multi-color palette and the individual single-color cosmetic trays that are to be placed in the compact case separately. With this sales model, the user can select the color of the cosmetic to be placed in the compact case. 【0006】 However, even in this sales format, the user cannot freely select the number of cosmetic trays to be placed in the compact case or the size of the cosmetic trays, nor can the user choose whether or not small cosmetic items such as brushes can be stored in the compact case. In addition, the user cannot change the size of the compact case, and therefore, in situations where a cosmetic tray of one color is sufficient, the user may be inconvenienced by having to carry around a compact case that stores cosmetic trays of multiple colors. Therefore, it is required to allow the user to freely select the colors of the cosmetics that make up the multi-color palette, the size of the cosmetic trays, the size of the compact case, the presence or absence of cosmetic items, etc. 【0007】 Meanwhile, it has been proposed that a user can connect a desired number of palettes with lids to construct a multi-color palette (Patent Document 1). However, with this multi-color palette, the user must open and close the lids of the multiple palettes one by one when applying makeup, which is cumbersome. Patent Document 1 also proposes that the user connects a predetermined number of palettes without lids, and covers the connected palettes with a lid of a size corresponding to the number of connected palettes. However, in this case, there is the inconvenience that the user must prepare in advance lids of a shape and size corresponding to the number of connected palettes. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents] 【0008】 [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 63-25910 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention] 【0009】 In contrast to the above-mentioned prior art, the object of the present invention is to enable a user to freely select and connect the desired number of palettes that differ in the color of the cosmetic, the size of the dish-shaped portion that holds the cosmetic, the presence or absence of cosmetic accessories, etc., and to enable the user to select the size of a compact case formed from one or more palettes, and to enable the lids of multiple connected palettes to be opened and closed simultaneously. [Means for solving the problem] 【0010】 The inventor conceived the idea that if the pallets with lids containing cosmetics or cosmetic accessories could be connected together in the face direction and the lids could also be connected together, the connected pallets could be opened and closed in one go using the connected lids, and thus completed the present invention. 【0011】 In other words, the present invention provides a lidded pallet comprising a pallet and a lid for opening and closing the pallet, the pallet having a pallet connecting structure on the side of the pallet that enables the pallets with lids lined up in the face direction of the pallet to be connected to each other, and the lids having a lid connecting structure on the side of the lid that enables the lids to be connected to each other, and in the connected body of lidded pallets connected by the pallet connecting structure and the lid connecting structure, the connected body of pallets is opened and closed by the connected body of the lids. 【0012】 Here, the palette broadly includes a dish-shaped object that contains or that can contain cosmetics or cosmetic accessories, including a dish-shaped container filled directly with cosmetics and a dish-shaped container filled with cosmetics by fitting a refill in. In a compact case, the dish-shaped portion, also called the container body, is filled with cosmetics directly or with a refill, and this dish-shaped portion can also be a palette of the present invention. 【0013】 The cosmetics contained in each palette may be of a single color or of multiple colors. The lid of the lidded palette may be of a sliding or hinged type. Thus, the lidded palette includes a palette equipped with a dish-shaped object filled directly with a cosmetic and a lid that opens and closes the dish-shaped object by sliding, a palette equipped with a refill, a dish-shaped portion that contains the refill (e.g., the container body of a compact case), and a lid that opens and closes the dish-shaped portion (e.g., the lid of a compact case), etc. Effect of the Invention 【0014】 According to the lidded palette of the present invention, a user can purchase palettes with only the types and colors of cosmetics and makeup accessories that suit his / her preferences or are necessary, and the palettes of cosmetics or makeup accessories that have been selected can be easily connected, removed, or rearranged using the connecting structure on the side of the palette. Therefore, a user can select palettes according to the usage scenario and connect the required number of palettes for use. It is also possible to avoid waste, such as discarding palettes of cosmetics in colors that do not suit the user's preferences unused. 【0015】 Furthermore, with the lidded pallet of the present invention, the lids connected to the pallets can be opened and closed all at once, eliminating the need to open and close the lids of each lidded pallet, improving the ease of use of the lidded pallets.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 【0017】 The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings, in which the same reference numerals denote the same or equivalent components. 【0018】 (Configuration of lidded pallet) 1A to 1C show a lidded pallet 1A according to one embodiment of the present invention with the lid open, and FIGS. 2A to 2D show this lidded pallet 1A with the lid closed. 【0019】 This lidded pallet 1A includes a pallet 10 and a lid 40 that opens and closes the pallet 10 by sliding. A refill 30 filled with cosmetic material A is fitted into the storage section 12 of the pallet 10. Note that cosmetic material A may also be directly filled into this storage section. 【0020】 The storage section 12 can store various types of cosmetics in various shades, such as eye shadow, blush, eyebrow, etc. The cosmetics may be stored directly in the storage section 12 without using refills. The items stored in the storage section 12 are not limited to cosmetics, but may also store makeup tools such as brushes and applicators, or may store a mirror. Furthermore, the items stored are not limited to cosmetics, but may also store accessories, various daily necessities, medicines, etc. 【0021】 This lidded pallet 1A has a pallet connection structure on the side of the pallet 10 that enables the pallets 10 to be connected to each other when multiple lidded pallets 1A are arranged in the surface direction of the pallet 10, and has a lid connection structure on the side of the lid that enables the lids 40 to be connected to each other when the pallets 10 are connected to each other, and as shown in Figures 7A and 8A, in a connected body 2A of lidded pallets connected by the pallet connection structure and the lid connection structure, the connected body of the pallets 10 is opened and closed by the connector 41 between the lids 40. That is, in this connected body 2A of lidded pallets, since the connectors 41 are connected between the lids 40, the connected body of the pallets 10 is opened and closed all at once, so that it is not necessary to open and close the lids 40 of each pallet 10 one by one. Therefore, it is possible to apply makeup while keeping an eye on all the colors of cosmetics in the connected body 2A and taking all the colors into consideration. 【0022】 The lidded pallet 1A of this embodiment has a pallet fitting convex portion 13 and a pallet fitting concave portion 14 as a pallet connecting structure, and a lid fitting convex portion 43 and a lid fitting concave portion 44 as a lid connecting structure. By having a convex portion and a concave portion as a connecting structure in this way, it is possible to facilitate and ensure connection by fitting or press-fitting. The pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43 are provided on one side of the lidded pallet 1A, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 and the lid fitting concave portion 44 are provided on the opposite side of the lidded pallet 1A. By providing the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43 on the same side of the lidded pallet 1A in this way, it is possible to facilitate the work of fitting these convex portions into the corresponding concave portions. In addition, when the lid 40 is closed, the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43 overlap in the vertical direction (perpendicular to the pallet surface), and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 and the lid fitting concave portion 44 also overlap in the vertical direction. This facilitates the above-mentioned connection, and also facilitates miniaturization of the lid-equipped pallet 1A. Note that, when the lid 40 is closed, the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 and the lid fitting concave portion 44 do not have to overlap in the vertical direction. In addition, the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting concave portion 44 may be provided on one side surface of the lid-equipped pallet 1A, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 and the lid fitting convex portion 43 may be provided on the opposite side surface of the lid-equipped pallet 1A. 【0023】 In order to connect two lidded pallets, one of the lidded pallets 1A is 1 The pallet fitting recess 14 and the lid fitting recess 44 of the other lid-equipped pallet 1A 2 In order to prevent the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43 from coming loose when the user presses them in, a recess bottom plate 15 is formed on the bottom surface of the pallet fitting recess 14, as shown in Figure 7B. 【0024】 The pallet 10 has a pallet side rail 16 between the storage section 12 and the pallet fitting protrusion 13 for sliding the lid 40 to open and close it, and also has a similar pallet side rail 16 between the storage section 12 and the pallet fitting recess 14 (FIGS. 2B and 3B). This pallet side rail 16 is formed as a protrusion extending from the back side of the front wall 18 of the pallet 10 to the rear of the pallet 10 on the outer surface of the side wall 17 of the pallet 10. On the other hand, a lid side rail 46 is formed as a protrusion on the inner surface of the side wall 47 of the lid 40 (FIGS. 2B and 4B). Therefore, when the front end of the lid 40 is placed against the rear end of the pallet 10 and the lid 40 is pushed toward the front end of the pallet 10, the pallet side rail 16 and the lid side rail 46 engage with each other as shown in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B, and FIG. 1C. Thereafter, by sliding the lid 40, the pallet 10 can be closed with the lid 40 as shown in FIG. 2A. Conversely, by pushing backward the lid 40 of the lid-equipped pallet 1A with the lid 40 closed, the lid 40 can be slid and opened as shown in FIG. 1A. Therefore, in the lid-equipped pallet 1A of this embodiment, the sliding direction of the lid 40 is the same as that of the lid-equipped pallet 1A shown in FIG. 1 , 1A 2 The sliding direction of the lid 40 is perpendicular to the connecting direction of the lid pallets 1A. Since the sliding direction of the lid 40 is not parallel to the connecting direction of the lid pallets 1A, the sliding action of the connected lid 40 (connected body) prevents the pallet fitting convex portion 13 and the lid fitting convex portion 43, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 and the lid fitting concave portion 44 from coming loose. In addition, since it becomes easy to simultaneously open and close the multiple connected pallets 10 (connected body), convenience can be improved. From this viewpoint, the angle that the sliding direction of the lid 40 makes with the connecting direction of the lid pallets 1A is preferably 60 to 120 degrees. The sliding direction of the lid 40 may be less than 60 degrees with respect to the connecting direction of the lid pallets 1A, for example, 0 degrees (parallel). 【0025】 Here, the rear end of the pallet side rail 16 does not reach the rear end of the side wall 17 of the pallet 10, and is blocked by a triangular prism-shaped protrusion 19 protruding from the side wall 17 of the pallet 10 as shown in FIG. 3A. Also, semi-cylindrical protrusions 49a, 49b protruding from the inner surface of the side wall 47 above the lid side rail 46 are provided near the front end and the rear end of the lid 40 as shown in FIG. 4A. As shown in FIG. 5A, when the lid 40 is slid in the direction of the arrow X1 to fit the lid 40 from the rear end of the pallet, the front protrusion 49a of the lid 40 first abuts against the protrusion 19 of the pallet 10, so that the lid 40 does not move in the sliding direction. However, by pushing in the direction of the arrow X1, the protrusion 49a of the lid 40 overcomes the protrusion 19 of the pallet 10 as shown in FIG. 5B, and the lid 40 can be slid in the X1 direction on the pallet 10. Then, just before the lid 40 is closed, the rear convex portion 49b of the lid 40 hits the convex portion 19 of the pallet 10 as shown in Fig. 5C, and by further pushing and sliding the lid 40 in the direction of the arrow X1, the rear convex portion 49b of the lid 40 overcomes the convex portion 19 of the pallet 10, and the lid 40 is closed as shown in Fig. 5D. At this time, a clicking sensation can be obtained. On the other hand, once the lid 40 is closed as shown in Fig. 5D, the rear convex portion 49b of the lid 40 hits the convex portion 19 of the pallet 10, so that the lid 40 can be prevented from opening inadvertently. 【0026】 When opening the lid 40, the lid 40 is pushed in the X2 direction so that the rear protrusion 49b of the lid 40 climbs over the protrusion 19 of the pallet 10. The lid 40 can then be opened by sliding the lid 40 in the X2 direction. Then, as shown in Figure 5B, when the lid 40 is opened widely, the front protrusion 49a of the lid 40 comes into contact with the protrusion 19 of the pallet 10, preventing the lid 40 from accidentally falling off. 【0027】 The top plate 48 of the lid 40 has an end portion close to the lid fitting convex portion 43 as a protrusion 48a that covers the lid fitting convex portion 43, and an end portion close to the lid fitting recess 44 as a notch portion 48b that exposes the lid fitting recess 44, with the protrusion 48a overlapping this exposed portion, and the edges of the protrusion 48a and the notch portion 48b fitting together within the top plate surface (FIGS. 7A and 7B). As shown in FIG. 7A, the two lidded pallets 1A 1 , 1A 2 When these are connected to each other, the connection structure can be hidden by the top plate 48, improving the design of the connected body 2A. 【0028】 The shapes of the protrusion 48a and the cutout 48b can be determined as appropriate for design, but in this embodiment the edge shape of the protrusion 48a and the edge shape of the cutout 48b are arcs of the same radius. This is preferable because it intuitively guides the user to match the protrusion 48a, whose edge shape is an arc, with the cutout 48b, whose edge shape is also an arc, when connecting lidded pallets 1A together. 【0029】 (Connecting pallets with lids together) When connecting the lidded pallets 1A of this embodiment to each other, as shown in FIG. 6, one of the lidded pallets 1A is connected to the other with the lid 40 closed. 1 The pallet fitting recess 14 and the lid fitting recess 44 of the other lid-equipped pallet 1A 2 It is preferable to manually press the pallet fitting protrusions 13 and the lid fitting protrusions 43 together. As a result, as shown in Figs. 7A and 7B, both lid-equipped pallets 1A 1 , 1A 2 It is possible to easily obtain a connected body 2A in which the pallets 10 are connected to each other and the lids 40 are also connected to each other. By connecting the lids 40 to each other when connecting the pallets 10 to each other, it is possible to prevent the connecting work from becoming complicated. FIG. 8B shows the connected body 2A in a state where it is separated into a connected body of lids and a connected body of pallets. As can be seen from the figure, the connected body 2A is formed from a connected body of lids 40 and a connected body of pallets 10. 【0030】 In the connected body 2A, as described above, the connected bodies between the pallets 10 are opened and closed by sliding the connected bodies between the lids 40, so there is no need to open and close the lids 40 of the individual pallets 10 one by one (FIGS. 7A and 8A). When disassembling the connected body 2A into individual lidded pallets, the lidded pallet 1A connected by the pallet fitting convex parts 13 and lid fitting convex parts 43 with the lids of the connected body 2A closed is disassembled. 2 The lid-equipped pallet 1A is connected to the pallet fitting recess 14 and the lid fitting recess 44. 1 Just push it up from there. 【0031】 Since the user can easily attach and detach the lidded palettes to each other by hand without using any special tool, the user can select the number of lidded palettes filled with cosmetics of the color of the user's choice as many as the user needs and connect them for use. 【0032】 Cosmetics manufacturers can also prepare lidded palettes that have a built-in mirror, that contain cosmetic tools such as brushes and sponge applicators, and that are empty containers into which users can put any contents. Furthermore, as lidded palettes for the ends of the connected bodies, lidded palettes that have no connecting structure on the side that is the end of the connected body and have a connecting structure only on one side that connects the lidded palettes to each other may be prepared. More specifically, for example, a lidded palette may have a pallet connecting convex portion and a lid connecting convex portion on one side, but no pallet connecting concave portion and lid connecting concave portion on the other side, or a lidded palette may have a pallet connecting concave portion and a lid connecting concave portion on one side, but no pallet connecting convex portion and lid connecting convex portion on the other side. In this case, the connecting structure is not exposed on the side that is the end of the connected body, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance. 【0033】 Since the lidded palette itself is composed of two parts, a palette and a lid, which have a similar fitting structure regardless of the type of contents contained in the lidded palette, cosmetics manufacturers can provide lidded palettes for storing a variety of different contents at low cost. 【0034】 The user can select and connect lidded pallets with different contents as appropriate. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, a lidded pallet 1A with a mirror M attached to one end of a connecting body 2A′ is M A pallet with a lid 1A is used that has no connecting structure on the left side as viewed from the front wall 18 of the pallet, and a cosmetic tool N such as a brush is stored in the other end of the connecting body 2A'. B A palette with no connecting structure on the right side as viewed from the front wall 18 is used, and cosmetics A1, A2, and A3 of different colors are filled between the palette 1A. 1 , 1A 2 , 1A 3 Pallet with lid 1A may be placed. 1 , 1A 2 , 1A 3 By attaching different patterns 51 to the lids 40 of the lids 40, for example, as shown in FIG. 9B, the user can 1 , 1A 2 , 1A 3 By changing the order of the connections, the external design of the connected body 2A' can be changed. This allows the user to enjoy changing the external appearance of the connected body 2A' and to enjoy expressing their originality. 【0035】 (Transformation mode) The lidded pallet of the present invention can take various forms. For example, the lidded pallet 1B shown in Figures 10A and 10B has the same pallet connection structure and lid connection structure as the lidded pallet 1A shown in Figures 1A and 2A, but further has a connection structure on the top plate 48 of the lid 40 and the bottom surface of the pallet 10 that enables connection between the top plate of the lid of the lower lidded pallet and the bottom surface of the upper lidded pallet when the lidded pallets are stacked one on top of the other. This makes the lidded pallet three-dimensional, and the above-mentioned effect can be obtained for each level in the vertical direction. More specifically, as the connection structure on the top plate 48 of the lid 40, a convex rib 50 with a trapezoidal cross section extends in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lid 40, and as the connection structure on the bottom surface of the pallet 10, a fitting groove 20 that fits into the convex rib 50 extends in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lid 40. In this way, the convex rib 50 and the engaging groove 20 extend in a direction that is not parallel to the sliding direction of the lid 40 relative to the pallet 10, thereby preventing the engagement between the convex rib 50 and the engaging groove 20 from coming loose when the lid 40 is slid. 【0036】 According to this lidded pallet 1B, one of the two lidded pallets, lidded pallet 1B 1 The pallet fitting recess 14 and the lid fitting recess 44 on the side of the other lid-equipped pallet 1B 2 The pallet fitting protrusions 13 and the lid fitting protrusions 43 on the sides of the lid 1B are fitted together to form the two lidded pallets 1B as shown in FIG. 1 , 1B 2 The lids 40 of the two connected bodies 2B can be connected to each other to open and close the two connected bodies 2B. 1 , 2B 2 The two connecting bodies 2B are connected by fitting the protruding strip 50 of one of the lids 40 into the fitting groove 20 on the bottom surface of the pallet of the other connecting body. 1 , 2B 2 A total of four connected lidded pallets 2B' can be obtained, each of which is stacked vertically. 1 and connector 2B 2 The direction in which the protrusion 50 is fitted into the fitting groove 20 when connecting the connector 2B 1 Or connector 2B 2Since the sliding direction of the lid 40 when opening and closing the lid 40 is not parallel to the connecting body 2B, 1 The convex strip 50 and the connector 2B 2 The fitting groove 20 will not come loose. Furthermore, with the linked lidded pallet assembly 2B', the width of the linked assembly can be made narrower than that of a linked assembly in which four lidded pallets 1B are linked in one direction by the connecting structure of their sides. 【0037】 In the present invention, there is no particular limit to the number of pallet connecting structures and lid connecting structures provided on the side of one lid-equipped pallet. For example, pallet 10B shown in Fig. 13 is the pallet 10 shown in Fig. 3B, with two pallet fitting convex portions 13 and two pallet fitting concave portions 14 provided on each side. The lid of this pallet 10B has two lid fitting convex portions and two lid fitting concave portions on each side. 【0038】 The present invention is not particularly limited by the fitting shape when a pallet fitting convex portion and a pallet fitting concave portion are provided as a pallet connection structure. For example, in the pallet 10 shown in Fig. 3B, the pallet fitting convex portion 13 is T-shaped when viewed from above, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 is a T-shaped notched shape when viewed from above, but as in the pallet 10C shown in Fig. 14, the pallet fitting convex portion 13 may be trapezoidal when viewed from above, and the pallet fitting concave portion 14 may be trapezoidal notched when viewed from above. 【0039】 The design of the lid of the lidded pallet and the pallet can be changed as appropriate. For example, the lidded pallet 1A shown in FIG. 4 As shown in FIG. 1, the lid 40 may be provided with a transparent or semi-transparent window 52. Providing the window 52 makes it possible to check what is contained in the pallet 10 with the lid 40 closed. When multiple pallets containing different colors of cosmetics are connected together using a connecting structure on the side of the lidded pallet, the colors of the cosmetics visible through the window 52 will be different, so that it is possible to enjoy changing the appearance of the connected body by rearranging the lidded pallets. 【0040】 In the present invention, the pallet connection structure and the lid connection structure are not limited to the fitting structure. For example, the lidded pallet 1C in Fig. 16A, Fig. 16B, and Fig. 16C has magnets 10M on the left and right side surfaces 10a, 10b, the front surface 10c, and the rear surface 10d of the pallet 10 as the pallet connection structure, and magnets 40M on the left and right side surfaces 40a, 40b, the front surface 40c, and the rear surface 40d of the lid 40 as the lid connection structure. It is preferable to reduce the number of magnets used in the connection structure as much as possible. The number of magnets per lidded pallet can be a total of four or more, with two magnets on the left and right side surfaces for the pallet connection structure and two magnets on the left and right side surfaces for the lid connection structure. 【0041】 Also, this lidded pallet 1C has lid side rails 46 and pallet side rails 16, similar to the lidded pallet 1A shown in FIG. 1A, in order to open and close the lid 40 and the pallet 10 by sliding. 【0042】 According to this lidded pallet 1C, the magnets 10M on the pallet sides 10a and 10b are used to connect adjacent lidded pallets 1C together like a connected body 2C shown in FIG. 1 , 1C 2 The sides of the pallets 10 can be connected to each other by magnets 10M, and the adjacent lidded pallets 1C 1 , 1C 2 The sides of the lids 40 can be connected together by magnets 40M. 【0043】 Furthermore, as shown in connected body 2C' in Figure 18, by connecting magnets 10M on the front surface 10c of the pallet and the rear surface 10d of the pallet, and connecting magnets 40M on the front surface 40c of the lid and the rear surface 40d of the lid, adjacent lidded pallets can be connected front to back, resulting in connected body 2C' (cosmetics A1, A2, A3, A4) connecting a total of four lidded pallets, two on the left and right and two on the front to back. 【0044】 In addition, as shown in Fig. 18, in order to enable the lids for cosmetics A1, A2 to slide until cosmetics A3, A4 are exposed, it is preferable that in this connected body of lidded pallets 2C', the protrusions 49a, 49b on the side of the lid 40 can relatively easily overcome the protrusions 19a, 19b on the side of the pallet 10. Therefore, in the pallet 10, the protrusion height of the protrusion 19b on the rear side is formed lower than the protrusion 19 (Fig. 3A) on the rear side of the pallet of the above-mentioned lidded pallet 1A. The pallet 10 also has a protrusion 19a on the front side. 【0045】 When magnets are used for the pallet connection structure and the lid connection structure, in addition to the structure of connecting magnets to each other as described above, the connection structure may be formed by a magnet and a metal that attracts the magnet. For example, when a magnet 10M is provided on one of the left and right side surfaces 10a of the pallet 10 of the lidded pallet 1C shown in FIG. 16A, a metal piece such as iron, cobalt, nickel, or an alloy containing these is provided on the other side surface 10b so as to connect to the magnet 10M. Similarly, when a magnet 40M is provided on one of the left and right side surfaces 40a of the lid 40, a metal piece such as iron, cobalt, nickel, or an alloy containing these is provided on the other side surface 40b so as to connect to the magnet 40M. Regarding the magnets on the front surface 10c and the rear surface 10d of the pallet, a magnet can be provided on one of the front surface and the rear surface, and a metal piece that attracts the magnet can be provided on the other surface. Regarding the magnets on the front surface 40c and the rear surface 40d of the lid 40, a magnet can be provided on one of the front surface and the rear surface, and a metal piece that attracts the magnet can be provided on the other surface. 【0046】 In the present invention, the pallet connection structure and the lid connection structure may be connection structures by press-fitting. Lidded pallet 1D shown in Figures 19A and 19B has a press-fit convex portion 21 as the connection structure on one side of pallet 10 and a press-fit concave portion 22 as the connection structure on the opposite side, and the connection structure of lid 40 also has a press-fit convex portion 53 on the same side as pallet 10's press-fit convex portion 21 and a press-fit concave portion 54 on the opposite side. The press-fit convex portions 21, 53 and the press-fit concave portions 22, 54 are formed into a fit that is firmly connected by press-fitting. Therefore, as shown in Figure 20, lidded pallets (1D1 , 1D 2 ) are arranged side by side, and one pallet with a lid 1D 1 The press-fitting projection 21 of the pallet is inserted into the other lidded pallet 1D. 2 The pallet is pressed into the press-fit recess 22 of the pallet in the direction of the pallet surface, and the 1D 1 The press-fitting projection 53 of the lid is inserted into the other lidded pallet 1D. 2 By pressing the connector 2D into the press-fit recess 54 of the lid, a connector 2D shown in FIG. 21A can be obtained. 【0047】 Here, the pallet 10 and the lid 40 of the lid-equipped pallet 1D are hinged. The reference numeral 55 shown by a dashed line in FIG. 19A is the axis of the hinge. Therefore, the lid 40 of the lid-equipped pallet 1D opens as shown in FIG. 19C. Therefore, the lid-equipped pallet 1D shown in FIG. 21A 1 , 1D 2 The connecting body 2D opens with the lid 40 connected as shown in FIG. 21B, and when closed, the lid 40 remains in the connected state. 【0048】 In the present invention, the lid can be opened and closed using a hinge whether the pallet connection structure and the lid connection structure are a fitting connection structure or a magnetic connection structure, and there is no particular restriction on the opening and closing direction of the lid in the present invention. 【0049】 In the present invention, the above-mentioned modified embodiments can be combined as appropriate.
