Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In the above-described portable container, the pair of unit containers are in close contact with each other so that the side surfaces of the pair of unit containers are flush. Therefore, when the connection between the pair of unit containers is released by pinching the side surface with a finger, there may occur a problem that it is difficult to remove the unit container from the other unit container. More specifically, it may happen that unless the side surface of one of the pair of unit containers is pinched with a finger and the one unit container is appropriately pulled upward with a finger, the unit container cannot be removed.

[0005] The present disclosure aims to provide a cosmetic palette and a cosmetic set that can be coupled to other cosmetic palettes and easily removed from other cosmetic palettes.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] (1) The cosmetic palette according to the present disclosure is a cosmetic palette having side walls and a bottom wall that define a concave-shaped accommodating portion capable of accommodating cosmetics. The cosmetic palette includes a convex portion extending upward with respect to the side wall and a concave portion into which the convex portion of another cosmetic palette fits from below. When the convex portion of another cosmetic palette fits into the concave portion of one cosmetic palette, a gap is formed between the lower end of the side wall of one cosmetic palette and the upper end of the side wall of the other cosmetic palette.

[0007] This cosmetic palette has an accommodating portion capable of accommodating cosmetics, and the accommodating portion is defined by a side wall and a bottom wall. The cosmetic palette has a convex portion protruding upward with respect to the side wall and a concave portion into which the convex portion of another cosmetic palette fits. Therefore, by fitting the convex portion of another cosmetic palette into the concave portion of one cosmetic palette, another cosmetic palette can be coupled to the one cosmetic palette. When the convex portion of another cosmetic palette fits into the concave portion of one cosmetic palette, a gap is formed between the lower end of the side wall of the one cosmetic palette and the upper end of the side wall of the other cosmetic palette. Therefore, by inserting a finger into this gap and pulling up one cosmetic palette from the other cosmetic palette, one cosmetic palette can be easily removed from the other cosmetic palette. That is, since a gap is formed between the lower end of the side wall of one cosmetic palette and the upper end of the side wall of the other cosmetic palette, it is possible to make the finger less likely to slip by inserting the finger into the gap, so that the cosmetic palette can be easily removed.

[0008] (2) In the above (1), the convex portion may have a top surface and a side surface extending downward from the top surface, and the concave portion may have a bottom surface facing the top surface, an inner surface facing the side surface, and a protrusion protruding from the inner surface. The protrusion may contact the side surface of the convex portion when the convex portion of another cosmetic palette fits into the concave portion of one cosmetic palette. In this case, a gap is formed between the inner surface of the concave portion and the side surface of the convex portion due to the protrusion protruding from the inner surface of the concave portion contacting the side surface of the convex portion. Therefore, a gap is formed between the side walls of one cosmetic palette and the side walls of another cosmetic palette, and a gap is formed between the inner surface of the concave portion and the side surface of the convex portion, so that it is possible to make it easier to remove the cosmetic palette. When one cosmetic palette is coupled to another cosmetic palette, the protrusion formed on the inner surface of the concave portion contacts the convex portion, and a gap is formed between the inner surface of the concave portion and the side surface of the convex portion. Therefore, even when one cosmetic palette is pulled obliquely upward with a finger, it can be easily removed.

[0009] (3) In the above (1) or (2), the cosmetic palette may include a protruding portion that protrudes outside the cosmetic palette with respect to the side wall and against which a finger can be applied when removing one cosmetic palette from another cosmetic palette. In this case, by applying a finger to the protruding portion and pulling up the protruding portion, it is possible to more easily remove one cosmetic palette from another cosmetic palette.

[0010] (4) In the above (3), the protruding portion may have a display portion that displays the name of an item stored in the storage portion. In this case, by looking at the name of the item displayed on the display portion of the protruding portion that protrudes outside the cosmetic palette with respect to the side wall, it is possible to easily grasp the contents of the cosmetic palette.

[0011] (5) The cosmetic set according to the present disclosure includes any one of the cosmetic palettes (1) to (4) above and a lid for sealing the storage portion of the cosmetic palette. The lid includes a lid recess into which the convex portion of the cosmetic palette fits from below. The lid recess has a lid bottom surface facing the top surface of the convex portion, a lid inner surface facing the side surface of the convex portion, and a lid protrusion protruding from the lid inner surface. The lid protrusion abuts against the side surface of the convex portion when the convex portion of the cosmetic palette fits into the lid recess.

[0012] This cosmetic set has a lid for sealing the storage portion of the cosmetic palette. The lid includes a lid recess into which the convex portion of the cosmetic palette fits. The lid recess has a lid inner surface, and the lid has a lid protrusion protruding from the lid inner surface. The lid protrusion abuts against the side surface of the convex portion when the convex portion of the cosmetic palette fits into the lid recess. In this case, since the lid protrusion abuts against the side surface of the convex portion, a gap is formed between the lid inner surface and the side surface of the convex portion. Therefore, since a gap is formed between the lid inner surface and the side surface of the convex portion, it is possible to easily remove the lid from the cosmetic palette.

Advantages of the Invention

[0013] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a cosmetic palette and a cosmetic set that can be coupled to other cosmetic palettes and easily removed from other cosmetic palettes.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0015] Hereinafter, embodiments of a makeup palette and a makeup set according to the present disclosure will be described. In the description of the drawings, the same or corresponding elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant descriptions will be omitted as appropriate. The drawings may be drawn with some parts simplified or exaggerated for ease of understanding, and dimensional ratios and the like are not limited to those described in the drawings.

[0016] FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a makeup palette 1 and a makeup set 100 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the makeup set 100 according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of makeup palettes 1 and a lid 20. The makeup palette 1 is detachable from another makeup palette 1 when stacked on the other makeup palette 1. Therefore, it is possible to change the number of makeup palettes 1 to be carried.

[0017] The lid 20 is detachably attached to the cosmetic palette 1. The lid 20 seals the storage section 1b (see FIG. 2) of the cosmetic palette 1. For example, by stacking multiple cosmetic palettes 1 and attaching the lid 20 to the topmost cosmetic palette 1, it is possible to prevent dust and the like from entering the cosmetic palette 1, thereby reducing problems during storage of the cosmetic set 100.

[0018] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the cosmetic palette 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the cosmetic palette 1 has a concave storage section 1b. The storage section 1b is capable of storing a cosmetic M. The cosmetic M is stored in the storage section 1b, for example, in a state where it is filled in an inner tray. The cosmetic M is in a solid, semi-solid, soft, or mousse form. For example, the cosmetic M may be an eye color, lipstick, eyebrow, eyeshadow, powder foundation, touch-up powder, face powder, concealer, blush, or base makeup.

[0019] The storage section 1b is capable of storing an applicator N. The applicator N may be a cosmetic applicator such as a brush, a puff, a sponge, a tip, or an impregnated body. For example, the types of cosmetics M stored in the multiple cosmetic palettes 1 and the types of applicators N are different from one another.

[0020] FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the cosmetic palette 1. In plan view, the cosmetic palette 1 has a rectangular shape with rounded corners. In the following description, the longitudinal direction of the cosmetic palette 1 in plan view is the first direction D1, the lateral direction of the cosmetic palette 1 in plan view is the second direction D2, and the thickness direction of the cosmetic palette 1 is the third direction D3. In addition, the direction in which the storage section 1b of the cosmetic palette 1 faces upward is sometimes referred to as the top, upper side, or upper side, and the direction in which the bottom wall 3 described later is located is sometimes referred to as the bottom, lower side, or lower side. Also, the view from above is sometimes referred to as the plan view, and the view from below is sometimes referred to as the bottom view. However, these directions are for convenience of explanation and do not limit the position or direction of an object or part.

[0021] The cosmetic palette 1 has a side wall 2 and a bottom wall 3 that define the storage section 1b. The side wall 2 includes, for example, an outer wall 2A that has a frame shape (in a plan view) when viewed along the third direction D3, a first inner wall 2B that extends in the first direction D1 inside the outer wall 2A in the plan view, and a second inner wall 2C that extends from a midpoint of the first inner wall 2B to the outer wall 2A in the plan view.

[0022] The outer wall 2A has a first outer wall 2D extending in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3 and having a thickness in the second direction D2, and a second outer wall 2E extending in the second direction D2 and the third direction D3 and having a thickness in the first direction D1. The outer wall 2A has a pair of first outer walls 2D aligned along the second direction D2, and a pair of second outer walls 2E aligned along the first direction D1.

[0023] The configuration of the side wall 2 is not limited to the above example and can be changed as appropriate. For example, the side wall 2 may have only the outer wall 2A and the first inner wall 2B, or may not have an inner wall. The bottom wall 3 extends in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 and has a thickness in the third direction D3. In a plan view, the bottom wall 3 is provided in a portion defined by the outer wall 2A.

[0024] The cosmetic pallet 1 has a protruding portion 4 that protrudes outward from the side wall 2. For example, the protruding portion 4 is in the form of a plate extending in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 and having a thickness in the third direction D3. For example, the protruding portion 4 protrudes in the second direction D2 from a middle portion of the first outer wall 2D in the first direction D1. The protruding portion 4 may protrude in the first direction D1 from a middle portion of the second outer wall 2E in the second direction D2. For example, the cosmetic pallet 1 has a pair of protruding portions 4, and the pair of protruding portions 4 are aligned along the second direction D2.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the protruding portion 4 has a display portion 4b that displays the name of the item accommodated in the accommodation portion 1b. By looking at the display portion 4b, it becomes possible to grasp the contents of the cosmetic palette 1 in a state where a plurality of cosmetic palettes 1 are stacked. The positions of the protruding portions 4 in plan view are different from each other among the plurality of cosmetic palettes 1. That is, the position of the protruding portion 4 protruding from the outer wall 2A is different depending on the cosmetic palette 1. In this case, when a plurality of cosmetic palettes 1 are stacked, the position of the protruding portion 4 appears to be shifted, so it becomes possible to make the display portion 4b easier to see.

[0026] The protruding portion 4 is configured such that a finger can be placed on it when removing one cosmetic palette 1 from another cosmetic palette 1. That is, by placing a finger on the protruding portion 4 and lifting the protruding portion 4 with the finger, the cosmetic palette 1 can be easily separated from another cosmetic palette 1 located below.

[0027] FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the cosmetic palette 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the cosmetic palette 1 has a recess 5 formed so as to surround the bottom wall 3 in a bottom view (when viewed along the third direction D3). The side wall 2 has an outer edge portion 2b that forms a frame shape outside the recess 5 in a bottom view. The recess 5 is a portion that is recessed upward from the bottom wall 3. The recess 5 will be described in detail later.

[0028] For example, the outer edge portion 2b has a plate shape. The outer edge portion 2b includes a first outer edge portion 2c that extends in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the second direction D2, and a second outer edge portion 2d that extends in the second direction D2 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the first direction D1. The outer edge portion 2b includes a pair of first outer edge portions 2c arranged along the second direction D2 and a pair of second outer edge portions 2d arranged along the first direction D1. The outer edge portion 2b protrudes below the bottom wall 3 and the recess 5. For example, the protruding portion 4 protrudes outside the cosmetic palette 1 in a bottom view from the outer edge portion 2b.

[0029] FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the lid 20 as viewed from below. FIG. 6 is a bottom view of the lid 20. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, for example, when viewed along the third direction D3, the lid 20 has a rectangular shape with rounded corners. The lid 20 has a lid recess 21 that is recessed in the third direction D3. The lid recess 21 has a lid bottom surface 22 and a lid inner surface 23 that extends in the third direction D3 from the outer edge of the lid bottom surface 22.

[0030] The lid bottom surface 22, for example, has a flat shape. The lid inner surface 23 is formed on each of a first side wall 23b that extends in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the second direction D2, and a second side wall 23c that extends in the second direction D2 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the first direction D1. The lid 20 has a pair of first side walls 23b arranged along the second direction D2 and a pair of second side walls 23c arranged along the first direction D1.

[0031] The lid recess 21 has a lid protrusion 25 that protrudes from the lid inner surface 23. The lid protrusion 25, for example, has a semi-cylindrical shape. In this case, the lid protrusion 25 has a bottom surface 25b that extends in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, and a curved surface 25c that protrudes in a curved shape from the lid inner surface 23 along the bottom surface 25b. For example, when viewed along the third direction D3, the bottom surface 25b has an arc shape.

[0032] For example, the lid protrusion 25 is formed at the center of the lid inner surface 23 in the first direction D1 and at the center of the lid inner surface 23 in the second direction D2, respectively. However, the arrangement position of the lid protrusion 25 may be a position shifted from the center of the lid inner surface 23 in the first direction D1 or the center of the lid inner surface 23 in the second direction D2, and is not particularly limited.

[0033] FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the cosmetic set 100 when cut by a plane extending in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3. FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of FIG. 3. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the cosmetic palette 1 has a convex portion 7 that extends upward with respect to the side wall 2.

[0034] When viewed along the third direction D3, the convex portion 7 is located outside the side wall 2. The concave portion 5 described above is formed directly below the convex portion 7. The convex portion 7 has a top surface 7b and side surfaces 7c extending downward from the top surface 7b. The side surfaces 7c are formed on the outside and inside of the top surface 7b when viewed along the third direction D3, respectively.

[0035] Hereinafter, the second cosmetic palette 1 from the bottom will be described as one cosmetic palette 1A, and the bottom cosmetic palette 1 will be described as another cosmetic palette 1B. Note that the third cosmetic palette 1 from the bottom may be one cosmetic palette 1A, and the second cosmetic palette 1 from the bottom may be another cosmetic palette 1B. In this way, among the pair of overlapping cosmetic palettes 1, the upper cosmetic palette 1 is one cosmetic palette 1A, and the lower cosmetic palette 1 is another cosmetic palette 1B.

[0036] The convex portion 7 of the other cosmetic palette 1B fits into the concave portion 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A from below. When the convex portion 7 of the other cosmetic palette 1B fits into the concave portion 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A, a gap S1 is formed between the lower end of the side wall 2 (outer edge portion 2b) of one cosmetic palette 1A and the upper end of the side wall 2 (outer edge portion 2b) of the other cosmetic palette 1B.

[0037] The convex portion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1 fits into the lid concave portion 21 of the lid 20 from below. The top surface 7b of the convex portion 7 faces the lid bottom surface 22, and the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 faces the inner lid surface 23. The lid protrusion 25 abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 when the convex portion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1 fits into the lid concave portion 21 of the lid 20. When the convex portion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1 fits into the lid concave portion 21 of the lid 20, a gap S2 is formed between the lower ends of the first side wall 23b and the second side wall 23c and the upper end of the side wall 2 (outer edge portion 2b) of the cosmetic palette 1.

[0038] As shown in FIGS. 4, 7, and 8, the recess 5 has a bottom surface 5b facing the top surface 7b of the convex portion 7, an inner surface 5c facing the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7, and a protrusion 5d protruding from the inner surface 5c. The bottom surface 5b has, for example, a flat shape. The inner surface 5c includes a first inner surface 5f located inside the bottom surface 5b when viewed along the third direction D3, and a second inner surface 5g located outside the bottom surface 5b when viewed along the third direction D3.

[0039] The protrusion 5d abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 when the convex portion 7 of another cosmetic palette 1B fits into the recess 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A. At this time, a gap S3 is formed between the inner surface 5c of the recess 5 and the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7. Also, when the lid protrusion 25 abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1, a gap is formed between the inner lid surface 23 and the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7.

[0040] The protrusion 5d protrudes, for example, from the second inner surface 5g. The protrusion 5d has, for example, a hemispherical shape. Note that the protrusion 5d may have a semi-cylindrical shape similar to the lid protrusion 25 described above, and the shape of the protrusion 5d is not particularly limited. For example, the protrusion 5d has a curved surface that abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7.

[0041] For example, the convex portion 7 has a curved surface 7f outside the top surface 7b when viewed along the third direction D3. The curved surface 7f is formed between the top surface 7b and the side surface 7c. The curved surface 7f allows the one cosmetic palette 1A to be easily attached to and detached from another cosmetic palette 1B. For example, the protrusions 5d are formed at the center of the inner surface 5c in the first direction D1 and at the center of the inner surface 5c in the second direction D2, respectively. However, the arrangement position of the protrusions 5d may be shifted from the center of the inner surface 5c in the first direction D1 or the center of the inner surface 5c in the second direction D2, and is not particularly limited.

[0042] Next, the effects obtained from the cosmetic palette 1 and the cosmetic set 100 according to this embodiment will be described in more detail. The cosmetic palette 1 has a storage portion 1b capable of storing the cosmetic M, and the storage portion 1b is defined by a side wall 2 and a bottom wall 3. The cosmetic palette 1 has a convex portion 7 protruding upward with respect to the side wall 2 and a concave portion 5 into which the convex portion 7 of another cosmetic palette 1B fits. Therefore, by fitting the convex portion 7 of another cosmetic palette 1B into the concave portion 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A, another cosmetic palette 1B can be coupled to one cosmetic palette 1A.

[0043] When the convex portion 7 of another cosmetic palette 1B fits into the concave portion 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A, a gap S1 is formed between the lower end of the side wall 2 of one cosmetic palette 1A and the upper end of the side wall 2 of another cosmetic palette 1B. Therefore, by inserting a finger into the gap S1 and pulling up one cosmetic palette 1A from another cosmetic palette 1B, one cosmetic palette 1A can be easily removed from another cosmetic palette 1B. That is, since the gap S1 is formed between the lower end of the side wall 2 of one cosmetic palette 1A and the upper end of the side wall 2 of another cosmetic palette 1B, the finger can be made less slippery by inserting the finger into the gap S1, so that the cosmetic palette 1 can be easily removed.

[0044] In this embodiment, the convex portion 7 has a top surface 7b and a side surface 7c extending downward from the top surface 7b, and the concave portion 5 has a bottom surface 5b facing the top surface 7b, an inner surface 5c facing the side surface 7c, and a protrusion 5d protruding from the inner surface 5c. The protrusion 5d abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 when the convex portion 7 of another cosmetic palette 1B fits into the concave portion 5 of one cosmetic palette 1A. In this case, a gap S3 is formed between the inner surface 5c of the concave portion 5 and the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7 by the protrusion 5d protruding from the inner surface 5c of the concave portion 5 abutting against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7.

[0045] Therefore, a gap S1 is formed between the side wall 2 of one cosmetic palette 1A and the side wall 2 of another cosmetic palette 1B, and a gap S3 is formed between the inner surface 5c of the recess 5 and the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7. Thus, it is possible to make it easier to remove one cosmetic palette 1A from another cosmetic palette 1B. When one cosmetic palette 1A is coupled to another cosmetic palette 1B, the protrusion 5d formed on the inner surface 5c of the recess 5 abuts against the protrusion 7, and a gap S3 is formed between the inner surface 5c of the recess 5 and the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7. Therefore, even when one cosmetic palette 1A is pulled obliquely upward with a finger, it can be easily removed.

[0046] In the present embodiment, the cosmetic palette 1 has a protrusion 4 that protrudes outside the cosmetic palette 1 with respect to the side wall 2 and against which a finger can be applied when removing one cosmetic palette 1A from another cosmetic palette 1B. In this case, by applying a finger to the protrusion 4 and pulling up the protrusion 4, it is possible to more easily remove one cosmetic palette 1A from another cosmetic palette 1B.

[0047] In the present embodiment, the protrusion 4 has a display portion 4b that displays the name of an item stored in the storage portion 1b. In this case, by looking at the name of the item displayed on the display portion 4b of the protrusion 4 that protrudes outside the cosmetic palette 1 with respect to the side wall 2, it is possible to easily grasp the contents of the cosmetic palette 1.

[0048] The cosmetic set 100 according to the present embodiment has a lid 20 that seals the storage portion 1b of the cosmetic palette 1. The lid 20 includes a lid recess 21 into which the protrusion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1 fits. The lid recess 21 has an inner lid surface 23, and the lid 20 has a lid protrusion 25 that protrudes from the inner lid surface 23. The lid protrusion 25 abuts against the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7 when the protrusion 7 of the cosmetic palette 1 fits into the lid recess 21. In this case, since the lid protrusion 25 abuts against the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7, a gap similar to the above-described gap S3 is formed between the inner lid surface 23 and the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7. Therefore, since a gap is formed between the inner lid surface 23 and the side surface 7c of the protrusion 7, it is possible to make it easier to remove the lid 20 from the cosmetic palette 1.

[0049] Next, various modifications of the cosmetic palette and the cosmetic set according to the present disclosure will be described. Some configurations of the cosmetic palette and the cosmetic set according to various modifications are the same as some configurations of the cosmetic palette 1 and the cosmetic set 100 described above. Therefore, hereinafter, duplicate descriptions of the same configurations as those of the cosmetic palette 1 and the cosmetic set 100 will be appropriately omitted with the same reference numerals.

[0050] FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing a cosmetic set 200 according to a first modification. FIG. 10 is a perspective view showing a cosmetic palette 31 according to the first modification. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the cosmetic set 200 has a cosmetic palette 31 and a lid 40, and the number of cosmetic palettes 31 stacked along the third direction D3 can be changed.

[0051] FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the cosmetic palette 31 viewed from below. As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the cosmetic palette 31 has a housing portion 1b, similar to the cosmetic palette 1. The cosmetic palette 31 has a side wall 32 and a bottom wall 33 that define the housing portion 1b. The cosmetic palette 31 has a recess 35 formed so as to surround the bottom wall 33 in a bottom view.

[0052] The side wall 32 has an outer edge portion 32b that forms a frame shape outside the recess 35 in a bottom view, and an inner wall portion 32c that is located inside the outer edge portion 32b in a plan view. When viewed along the third direction D3, the outer edge portion 32b and the inner wall portion 32c form a frame shape. The area of the outer edge portion 32b when viewed along the third direction D3 is wider than the area of the outer edge portion 32b when viewed along the third direction D3.

[0053] The outer edge portion 32b is located below the inner wall portion 32c. In the cosmetic palette 31, the housing portion 1b is defined by the inner wall portion 32c and the bottom wall 33. The recess 35 is a portion that is recessed in the third direction D3 in the outer edge portion 32b. The recess 35 is defined by the outer edge portion 32b and the bottom wall 33.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the inner wall portion 32c of another cosmetic palette 31B fits into the recess 35 of one cosmetic palette 31A, so that one cosmetic palette 31A can be detachably attached to another cosmetic palette 31B. The cosmetic palette 31 has a protrusion 32d that protrudes from the side wall 32 (inner wall portion 32c) when viewed along the third direction D3.

[0055] The protrusion 32d protrudes outside the cosmetic palette 31 when viewed along the third direction D3. The protrusion 32d protrudes from the inner wall portion 32c. The cosmetic palette 31 has a plurality of protrusions 32d. The protrusions 32d are formed, for example, at the center of the inner wall portion 32c in the first direction D1 and at the center of the inner wall portion 32c in the second direction D2, respectively.

[0056] For example, the protrusion 32d has a curved surface shape. In this case, one cosmetic palette 31A can be easily attached to and detached from another cosmetic palette 31B. The protrusion 32d has a first curved surface 32f whose cross section when cut by a plane extending along the thickness direction of the inner wall portion 32c and the third direction D3 is in an arc shape, and a pair of second curved surfaces 32g located on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the inner wall portion 32c when viewed from the first curved surface 32f.

[0057] The recess 35 is defined by a bottom surface 35b extending in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, a first inner surface 35c extending in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3, and a second inner surface 35d extending in the second direction D2 and the third direction D3. The recess 35 has uneven portions 35f formed on the first inner surface 35c and the second inner surface 35d. In the uneven portions 35f, the concave portions and the convex portions are arranged alternately along the third direction D3.

[0058] The protrusion 32d abuts against the first inner surface 35c (or the second inner surface 35d) of the recess 35 when the inner wall portion 32c of another cosmetic palette 31B fits into the recess 35 of one cosmetic palette 31A. For example, the protrusion 32d abuts against the uneven portion 35f of the recess 35. Thereby, one cosmetic palette 31A can be firmly coupled to another cosmetic palette 31B. At this time, a gap similar to the above-described gap S3 is formed between the outer surface of the inner wall portion 32c and the first inner surface 35c (or the second inner surface 35d) of the recess 35. Therefore, the attachment and detachment of one cosmetic palette 31A with respect to another cosmetic palette 31B can be easily performed.

[0059] FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the lid 40 as viewed from below. As shown in FIG. 12, the lid 40 has a lid recess 41 that is recessed in the third direction D3. The lid recess 41 has a lid bottom surface 42 and a lid inner surface 43 that extends in the third direction D3 from the outer edge of the lid bottom surface 42. The lid inner surface 43 is formed on each of a first side wall 43b that extends in the first direction D1 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the second direction D2, and a second side wall 43c that extends in the second direction D2 and the third direction D3 and has a thickness in the first direction D1. The lid recess 41 has uneven portions 43f formed on each of the first side wall 43b and the second side wall 43c. In the uneven portion 43f, similar to the above-described uneven portion 35f, the recesses and the protrusions are alternately arranged along the third direction D3.

[0060] As shown in FIGS. 10 and 12, by fitting the inner wall portion 32c of the cosmetic palette 31 into the lid recess 41 of the lid 40, the lid 40 is detachably attached to the cosmetic palette 31. When the inner wall portion 32c of the cosmetic palette 31 fits into the lid recess 41 of the lid 40, the protrusion 32d of the cosmetic palette 31 abuts against the lid inner surface 43 of the lid recess 41. For example, the protrusion 32d abuts against the uneven portion 43f of the lid inner surface 43. Thereby, the lid 40 can be firmly coupled to the cosmetic palette 31. At this time, a gap similar to the above-described gap S3 is formed between the outer surface of the inner wall portion 32c and the lid inner surface 43 of the lid recess 41. Therefore, the attachment and detachment of the lid 40 with respect to the cosmetic palette 31 can be easily performed.

[0061] In the above-described cosmetic palette 31 and cosmetic set 200 according to the first modification example, the side wall 32 of the cosmetic palette 31 has the protrusion 32d, and when the inner wall portion 32c fits into the recess 35, the protrusion 32d abuts against the first inner surface 35c (or the second inner surface 35d) of the recess 35. Therefore, since the attachment and detachment of one cosmetic palette 31A to another cosmetic palette 31B can be easily performed, the same operational effects as those of the above-described cosmetic palette 1 can be obtained from the cosmetic palette 31.

[0062] FIG. 13 is a perspective view showing a cosmetic palette 51 and a cosmetic set 300 according to a second modification example. The cosmetic set 300 is different from the above-described cosmetic sets 100 and 200 in that it does not have a lid. The cosmetic set 300 is composed of a plurality of cosmetic palettes 51 arranged along the third direction D3.

[0063] The cosmetic palette 51 has a palette body 52 capable of accommodating cosmetic M, and a lid member 53 that covers the palette body 52 and is pullable with respect to the palette body 52. FIG. 14 is a perspective view showing the lid member 53. FIG. 15 is a perspective view showing the palette body 52.

[0064] The palette body 52 has a housing portion 52b that can accommodate cosmetic M and has a concave shape. The palette body 52 has a bottom wall 52c extending in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, and a side wall 52d standing upright in the third direction D3 from the outer edge of the bottom wall 52c. The housing portion 52b is defined by the bottom wall 52c and the side wall 52d.

[0065] The side wall 52d has a gripping portion 52f formed at one end of the side wall 52d in the first direction D1. The length of the gripping portion 52f in the second direction D2 is longer than the length of the portion of the side wall 52d other than the gripping portion 52f in the second direction D2. The gripping portion 52f protrudes from each of both ends of the side wall 52d in the second direction D2. By gripping this gripping portion 52f with a finger, the palette body 52 can be easily pulled out from the lid member 53.

[0066] The lid member 53 has a top surface portion 53b extending in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, and a side wall 53c extending downward from the outer edge of the top surface portion 53b. The top surface portion 53b has a rectangular shape, and the side wall 53c extends downward from three sides of the top surface portion 53b. An opening 53d through which the pallet body 52 is inserted and removed is formed below the side where the side wall 53c is not formed among the four sides of the top surface portion 53b.

[0067] The lid member 53 has the opening 53d at one end in the first direction D1. Further, the lid member 53 has a pallet body accommodating portion 53f extending from the opening 53d into the lid member 53, and a rail portion 53g extending from below the opening 53d into the lid member 53. The lid member 53 has a pair of rail portions 53g, and each rail portion 53g protrudes inward in the second direction D2 with respect to the side wall 53c.

[0068] By placing the portion of the pallet body 52 opposite to the gripping portion 52f on the rail portion 53g and inserting the side wall 52d into the opening 53d, it is possible to store the pallet body 52 inside the lid member 53. As shown in FIG. 13, in the state where the pallet body 52 is stored inside the lid member 53, the gripping portion 52f is exposed. In this state, by pulling the gripping portion 52f in the first direction D1 with respect to the lid member 53, the pallet body 52 can be pulled out from the lid member 53 to expose the accommodating portion 52b of the pallet body 52.

[0069] FIG. 16 is a perspective view of the lid member 53 as viewed from below. As shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the pallet body 52 has convex portions 52g protruding from both ends in the second direction D2 from the side wall 52d at the end of the side wall 52d opposite to the gripping portion 52f. The lid member 53 has convex portions 53h protruding inward in the second direction D2 from the side wall 53c at the end of the pallet body accommodating portion 53f opposite to the opening 53d.

[0070] When the pallet body 52 is inserted into the opening 53d of the cover member 53, the convex portion 52g of the pallet body 52 climbs over the convex portion 53h of the cover member 53. This causes the pallet body 52 to engage with the cover member 53 in the first direction D1, thereby preventing the pallet body 52 from unintentionally coming off the cover member 53.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 16, the cosmetic palette 51 includes a convex portion 53j extending upward from the side wall 53c, and a concave portion 53k into which the convex portion 53j of another cosmetic palette 51B fits from below. The convex portion 53j and the concave portion 53k are formed on the cover member 53. The convex portion 53j has the above-mentioned top surface portion 53b and a side surface portion 53m extending downward from the outer edge of the top surface portion 53b. The convex portion 53j has a convex portion 53t protruding from the side surface portion 53m. A pair of the convex portions 53t are arranged along the first direction D1. The surface of the convex portion 53t is curved.

[0072] The recess 53k is defined by a bottom surface 53p facing downward and an inner side surface 53q extending upward from the inside of the bottom surface 53p in a bottom view. The bottom surface 53p is formed at the lower end of the side wall 53c, and the bottom surface 53p has a U-shape in a bottom view. An uneven portion 53r is formed on at least a part of the inner side surface 53q. In the uneven portion 53r, the recesses and protrusions are aligned along the third direction D3, similar to the uneven portion 35f described above.

[0073] The protruding portion 53j of the other cosmetic palette 51B fits into the recessed portion 53k of the first cosmetic palette 51A, so that the first cosmetic palette 51A can be attached and detached to the other cosmetic palette 51B. When the protruding portion 53j of the other cosmetic palette 51B fits into the recessed portion 53k of the first cosmetic palette 51A, the uneven portion 53r of the recessed portion 53k abuts against the side portion 53m of the protruding portion 53j. For example, the protruding portion 53t protruding from the side portion 53m abuts against the uneven portion 53r. This allows the first cosmetic palette 51A to be firmly connected to the other cosmetic palette 51B.

[0074] When the convex portion 53j of another cosmetic palette 51B fits into the concave portion 53k of one cosmetic palette 51A, a gap S4 is formed between the lower end of the side wall 52d of one cosmetic palette 51A and the upper end of the side wall 52d of another cosmetic palette 51B. More specifically, a gap S4 is formed between the lower end of the knob portion 52f of one cosmetic palette 51A and the upper end of the knob portion 52f of another cosmetic palette 1B.

[0075] Therefore, by inserting a finger into the gap S4 and pulling up one cosmetic palette 51A from another cosmetic palette 51B, one cosmetic palette 51A can be easily removed from another cosmetic palette 51B. Therefore, the cosmetic palette 51 and the cosmetic set 300 can obtain the same effects as the above-described cosmetic palette 1 and the cosmetic set 100.

[0076] As described above, the embodiments and various modifications of the cosmetic palette and the cosmetic set according to the present disclosure have been described. However, the cosmetic palette and the cosmetic set according to the present disclosure are not limited to the contents of the above-described embodiments or modifications, and may be further modified within the scope of the gist described in the claims.

[0077] For example, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which the convex portion 7 including the top surface 7b and the side surface 7c and the concave portion 5 in which the bottom surface 5b, the inner surface 5c, and the protrusion 5d are formed, and the protrusion 5d abuts against the side surface 7c of the convex portion 7. However, a cosmetic palette having a concave portion in which the protrusion 5d is not formed may also be used. In this case, the size of the concave portion may be approximately the same as the size of the convex portion, and one cosmetic palette may be detachably coupled to another cosmetic palette by fitting the convex portion into the concave portion.

[0078] In the second modified example described above, the cosmetic palette 51 in which one palette body 52 can be inserted into and removed from one lid member 53 has been described. However, a cosmetic palette in which a plurality of palette bodies can be inserted into and removed from one lid member may also be used. Further, a through hole for taking out the inner dish accommodated in the accommodating portion 52b may be formed in the bottom wall 52c of the palette body 52. In this case, the inner dish can be easily taken out from the accommodating portion 52b.
