Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] Hereinafter, referring to the drawings, a compact container 100, which is an embodiment of the present disclosure, will be described in detail.

[0015] Figures 1 to 3 show the external appearance and cross-sectional view of a compact container 100, which is one embodiment of the present disclosure. The compact container 100 according to this embodiment comprises a container body 10 having a recess 10m for containing contents such as cosmetics, and a lid 40 that covers the upper end opening of the recess 10m of the container body 10 by rotating around a rotation axis R relative to the container body 10. The lid 40 also has a lid adsorption member 43, which is a ferromagnetic material, that closes the lid 40 by attracting a body adsorption member 13, which is a ferromagnetic material, located on the container body 10 side. In this embodiment, both the body adsorption member 13 and the lid adsorption member 43 are permanent magnets, but at least one of them may be a magnetic material and the other may be a ferromagnetic material (such as permalloy or soft iron) that is not a magnetic material. Also, at least one of the body adsorption member 13 and the lid adsorption member 43 may be partially composed of a magnet. If both the main body suction member 13 and the lid suction member 43 are permanent magnets, then it is sufficient that they are arranged so that different magnetic poles face each other when the lid 40 is closed, for example, the upper surface of the main body suction member 13 is magnetized to the north pole while the lower surface of the lid suction member 43 is magnetized to the south pole.

[0016] In this embodiment, the vertical direction in Figure 1 and the direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper in Figure 2 represent the left-right direction (X-axis direction) of the compact container 100, with the positive X-axis direction being the rightward direction. Also, the left-right direction in Figure 1 and the left-right direction in Figure 2 represent the front-back direction (Y-axis direction) of the compact container 100, with the positive Y-axis direction being the rearward direction. Furthermore, the direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper in Figure 1 and the vertical direction in Figure 2 represent the up-down direction (Z-axis direction) of the compact container 100, with the positive Z-axis direction being the upward direction.

[0017] In this embodiment, the upward and downward directions are defined as the upward and downward directions when the lid 40 is closed, as shown in Figure 3. For example, since the mirror 49 is mounted below the top wall 40e when the lid 40 is closed as shown in Figure 3, the mirror 49 will also be described as being mounted below the top wall 40e in Figure 2.

[0018] The accompanying drawings of this disclosure are drawn to the same scale in the vertical, front-to-back, and left-to-right directions, and the aspect ratio of the compact container 100 in the drawings represents the aspect ratio of the compact container 100 of this disclosure. However, the configuration, shape, dimensional ratio, etc. of the compact container 100 in the accompanying drawings are merely one embodiment of this disclosure. This disclosure should be interpreted in accordance with the language of the claims and is not limited to the configuration, shape, dimensional ratio, etc. shown in the drawings.

[0019] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the container body 10 has a rectangular shape in plan view and includes a bottom wall 10e, a front side wall 10a, a rear side wall 10c, a right side wall 10b2, and a left side wall 10b1 that rise from the front, rear, right, and left ends of the bottom wall 10e, a body suction member 13 that maintains the lid 40 in a closed state by attracting the lid suction member 43 on the lid 40 side, and a body hinge portion 10j (see Figures 1 to 3) that rotates the lid 40 around a rotation axis R relative to the container body 10. The body hinge portion 10j is provided with an axial hole into which a pin for rotating the lid 40 around the rotation axis R can be inserted.

[0020] The container body 10 is partitioned into a recess 10m by the bottom wall 10e, the front side wall 10a, the rear side wall 10c, the right side wall 10b2, and the left side wall 10b1 described above. As shown in Figure 1, the recess 10m is provided with a dividing wall 10d that extends in the left-right direction (up-down direction in Figure 1). A receptacle made of synthetic resin or metal for containing the contents may be placed on at least one side of the dividing wall 10d. Alternatively, an applicator or the like may be placed on one side of the dividing wall 10d in the recess 10m.

[0021] At the front of the container body 10, a body suction member 13 is positioned to maintain the closed state of the lid 40 by attracting the lid suction member 43 on the lid 40 side. As shown in Figures 1 to 4C, the body suction member 13 has a roughly rectangular parallelepiped shape that is long in the left-right direction. The body suction member 13 is positioned in the body suction member housing space 10s of the container body 10 and is covered from above by the body suction member cover 14.

[0022] The container body 10 is provided with a body suction member housing space 10s at the center in the left-right direction behind the front side wall 10a of the body body. As shown in Figures 3 to 4C, the body suction member housing space 10s is partitioned by the front side wall 10a of the body body, body housing side walls 10f extending rearward from two locations in the left-right direction on the front side wall 10a of the body body, a bottom wall 10e, and a body housing rear wall 10g that connects the rear ends of the body housing side walls 10f in the left-right direction and covers at least a part of the rear end surface of the body suction member 13 (in this embodiment, only the lower part of the rear end surface of the body suction member 13). An engagement projection 10f1 for undercut engagement with the body suction member cover 14, which will be described later, is provided on the upper part of the body housing side wall 10f, projecting outward in the left-right direction.

[0023] The dimensions of the main suction member 13 are set to be slightly smaller than the inner dimensions of the main suction member housing space 10s. Therefore, by removing the main suction member cover 14 from the container body 10, the main suction member 13 can be removed from the container body 10 relatively easily by tilting the container body 10 or performing other operations.

[0024] As shown in Figures 3 to 4C, the main body suction member cover 14 includes an upper cover wall 14h that covers the main body suction member 13 from above, a side cover wall 14f that surrounds the main body housing side wall 10f from the outside in the left-right direction and has an engaging projection 14f1 that can undercut engage with the engaging projection 10f1 of the main body housing side wall 10f, a rear cover wall 14g that covers the main body suction member 13 and the main body housing rear wall 10g from the rear, and a gripping portion 14j that extends further to the left from the left end of the upper cover wall 14h and facilitates the removal of the main body suction member cover 14 by the user grasping and pulling upward.

[0025] When a sorter removes the main body suction member 13 from the container body 10 after using the compact container 100, they grasp the left end knob 14j from the state shown in Figure 4A and pull it upward. This operation causes the tip of the knob 14j to bend upward as shown in Figure 4B, and the lower part of the left cover side end wall 14f is displaced outward, releasing the undercut engagement between the engaging projection 14f1 and the engaging projection 10f1. Subsequently, as shown in Figure 4C, the sorter pulls the knob 14j further upward to separate the upper end wall 14h of the cover from the upper surface of the main body suction member 13. This allows the main body suction member 13 to be easily removed from the main body suction member storage space 10s by, for example, inverting the container body 10.

[0026] Although not shown in the diagram, the container body 10 may be composed of two parts: the container body and the inner frame, or a structure in which the inner frame is fitted inside the container body may be adopted.

[0027] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the lid 40 comprises an outer lid 46 having a top wall 40e oriented horizontally, a front lid wall 40a hanging down from the front end of the top wall 40e, a rear lid wall 40c hanging down from the rear end of the top wall 40e, and a left lid wall 40b1 and a right lid wall 40b2 hanging down from the left and right ends of the top wall 40e, respectively, and an inner lid 47 which is disposed in the space formed by the top wall 40e, the front lid wall 40a, the rear lid wall 40c, the left lid wall 40b1 and the right lid wall 40b2 and is detachably attached to the outer lid 46. Furthermore, the lid 40 includes a mirror 49 mounted in a recess 40h5 on the lower surface of the lid substrate 40h, a lid suction member 43 that closes the lid 40 by attracting the main body suction member 13 on the container body 10 side, and a lid hinge portion 42c (see Figures 1 and 3) that rotates the lid 40 around the rotation axis R relative to the container body 10. The lid hinge portion 42c is provided with an axial hole 42d into which a pin for rotating the lid 40 around the rotation axis R can be inserted.

[0028] A lid suction member 43 is positioned at the left-right center position behind the front side wall 40a of the lid 40. In this embodiment, the lid suction member 43 is movable in the left-right direction between a usage position (shown in Figures 5A and 5B) in which it is attracted to the main body suction member 13 when the lid 40 is closed and engages with both the inner lid 47 and the outer lid 46 in a way that prevents relative displacement in the vertical direction, and a separation position (shown in Figures 6A, 6B, and 7) in which it can be displaced vertically relative to the outer lid 46. In Figures 5A and 6A, the lid suction member 43 is indicated by a dotted line. The main body suction member 13, which moves the lid suction member 43 from the usage position (Figures 5A and 5B) to the separation position (Figures 6A and 6B) by suction force, is indicated by a dashed line in Figures 5A, 5B, and 6A.

[0029] A guide portion 40h1 is provided on the thick plate portion 40h2 located at the front of the lid substrate 40h of the inner lid 47, and the guide portion 40h1 is recessed to the rear from the front end surface of the thick plate portion 40h2. As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the guide portion 40h1 is a groove-shaped space extending in the left-right direction, and the lid suction member 43 can move within the guide portion 40h1 in the left-right direction (up-down direction in Figure 1, and perpendicular to the plane of the paper in Figures 2 and 3) between the usage position and the sorting position.

[0030] During use, the lid suction member 43 is attracted to the left by a fixing suction member 45, which is a ferromagnetic material located in a fixing recess 45a on the left side (upper side of Figure 5A) of the lid suction member 43, and is maintained in the position of use. At least one of the lid suction member 43 and the fixing suction member 45 includes a magnetic material.

[0031] Furthermore, the front side wall 40a of the outer cover 46 is provided with a restricting portion 41a that restricts the downward movement (upward in Figure 5B) of the cover suction member 43 in the usage position (see Figures 5A and 5B), and allows the downward movement (upward in Figure 6B) of the cover suction member 43 in the separation position (see Figures 6A and 6B).

[0032] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the restricting portion 41a of the outer cover 46 is provided on a rib 41 extending rearward from the front side wall 40a of the outer cover 46 at approximately the center position in the left-right direction, and is a groove-shaped portion that is recessed forward from the rear end surface of the rib 41 and extends in the left-right direction. In the usage position shown in Figures 5A and 5B, the rear part of the cover suction member 43 is positioned within the guide portion 40h1 and the front part is positioned within the restricting portion 41a, so it is engaged with both the outer cover 46 and the inner cover 47 in a way that prevents relative displacement in the vertical direction. Therefore, in the usage position, the relative vertical displacement between the outer cover 46 and the inner cover 47 is constrained by the cover suction member 43. Consequently, in the usage position, the outer cover 46 cannot be removed by moving it vertically relative to the inner cover 47.

[0033] On the other hand, when the lid suction member 43 is in the separation position shown in Figures 6A and 6B, the rear part remains within the guide part 40h1 (however, it moves to the right (downward in Figure 6A) away from the EE cross-sectional position in Figure 6A), but the front part moves to the right (downward in Figure 6A) away from the restricting part 41a. Therefore, although it engages with the inner lid 47 in a way that prevents relative displacement in the vertical direction, it is able to move relative to the outer lid 46 in the vertical direction. Consequently, in the separation position, the relative vertical displacement between the outer lid 46 and the inner lid 47 is not constrained by the lid suction member 43. Therefore, in the separation position, as shown in Figure 7, the outer lid 46 can be moved upward (downward in Figure 7) from the inner lid 47 and removed.

[0034] In this embodiment, the inner lid 47 is engaged with the outer lid 46 in a way that prevents relative displacement in the vertical direction when in the sorting position, but the outer lid 46 is configured to be able to move relative to it in the vertical direction. However, the embodiment is not limited to this configuration. The outer lid 46 may be engaged with the outer lid 46 in a way that prevents relative displacement in the vertical direction when in the sorting position, but the inner lid 47 may be configured to be able to move relative to it in the vertical direction.

[0035] The mirror 49 is mounted in a recess 40h5 provided on the lower surface of the lid substrate 40h. The mirror 49 can be formed, for example, by depositing aluminum onto the mirror surface side of a glass plate or an acrylic plate, but is not limited to this, and may be formed from other materials or by other manufacturing methods. In this embodiment, it is preferable to use a mirror 49 made of synthetic resin that does not require sorting during disposal.

[0036] As described above, this embodiment is a compact container 100 comprising a container body 10 for containing contents and a lid 40 that can rotate relative to the container body 10 to close the upper end opening of the container body 10, wherein the lid 40 comprises an outer lid 46 having a top wall 40e, a front lid wall 40a hanging down from the front end of the top wall 40e, and a rear lid wall 40c hanging down from the rear end of the top wall 40e, an inner lid 47 disposed in the space partitioned by the top wall 40e, the front lid wall 40a, and the rear lid wall 40c and detachably attached to the outer lid 46, and on the container body 10 side The compact container 100 has a lid suction member 43, which is a ferromagnetic material, that attracts the lid 40 to the main body suction member 13, which is a ferromagnetic material, thereby closing the lid 40. At least one of the main body suction member 13 and the lid suction member 43 contains a magnet, and the lid suction member 43 is configured to be movable in the left-right direction between a usage position in which it attracts the main body suction member 13 when the lid 40 is closed and engages with both the inner lid 47 and the outer lid 46 in a way that prevents relative vertical displacement, and a separation position in which it can be relatively displaced vertically with respect to at least one of the inner lid 47 and the outer lid 46. By adopting this configuration, the outer lid 46 of the lid 40 can be removed from the inner lid 47 and the lid suction member 43 located inside the inner lid 47 of the lid 40 can be easily removed to the outside simply by moving the lid suction member 43 located on the lid 40 side from the usage position to the separation position in the left-right direction. Therefore, the ferromagnetic material, which is made of a different material from the other components constituting the compact container 100, can be easily separated. Furthermore, since there is no need to provide a hole in the lid 40 for removing the magnet, the appearance of the compact container 100 is not compromised.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the lid suction member 43 is positioned in the usage position by attracting a fixing suction member 45, which is a ferromagnetic material provided inside the lid 40, and at least one of the lid suction member 43 and the fixing suction member 45 is configured to include a magnet. By adopting this configuration, the lid suction member 43 is stably maintained in the usage position when the compact container 100 is in use, and the lid suction member 43 can be easily moved to the separation position by a simple method such as bringing a magnet close to the lid suction member 43 when separating items, and the lid suction member 43 located inside the lid 40 can be easily removed to the outside.

[0038] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the front end of the inner lid 47 is provided with a guide portion 40h1 that guides the lid suction member 43 so that it can move left and right between the usage position and the sorting position but cannot move up and down. The front side wall 40a of the outer lid 46 is provided with a restricting portion 41a that restricts the downward movement of the lid suction member 43 in the usage position and allows the downward movement of the lid suction member 43 in the sorting position. By adopting this configuration, the inner lid 47 and the outer lid 46 are constrained so that they cannot be displaced relative to each other in the up and down direction via the lid suction member 43 in the usage position, and in the sorting position, the outer lid 46 is separated from the inner lid 47 upward (downward in Figure 7), allowing the lid suction member 43, which is partially housed in the guide portion 40h1, to be easily removed to the outside.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a mirror 49 is mounted below the inner lid 47. By adopting this configuration, even if the mirror 49 is made of glass or the like, when the inner lid 47 and outer lid 46 are separated, the lid suction member 43 and the mirror 49, which are made of different materials from the other components constituting the compact container 100, will both be attached to the inner lid 47 side, thus making the subsequent separation process more efficient.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the main body suction member 13 is configured to be positioned within a main body suction member housing space 10s, which is partitioned by the main body front wall 10a, the bottom wall 10e of the container body 10, the main body housing side wall 10f extending rearward from the main body front wall 10a, and the main body housing rear wall 10g covering at least a portion of the rear end surface of the main body suction member 13. By adopting this configuration, the main body suction member 13 can be positioned more accurately relative to the container body 10, thereby improving the airtightness of the compact container 100 when the lid 40 is closed.

[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the main body suction member 13 is covered from above by a main body suction member cover 14 that engages with the main body housing side wall 10f with an undercut, and is configured to have a handle portion 14j that extends outward in the left-right direction beyond the main body housing side wall 10f. By adopting this configuration, the main body suction member 13 can be easily removed from the container body 10 by simply grasping the handle portion 14j and pulling it upward, thereby exposing the upper surface of the main body suction member 13. Therefore, the ferromagnetic material on the container body 10 side, which is made of a different material from the other components constituting the compact container 100, can be easily separated. In addition, since there is no need to provide a hole in the container body 10 for removing the magnet, the appearance of the compact container 100 is not spoiled.

[0042] While this disclosure has been described based on various drawings and embodiments, it should be noted that those skilled in the art will find it easy to make various modifications and alterations based on this disclosure. Therefore, it should be noted that these modifications and alterations are included within the scope of the present invention. For example, the functions included in each component can be rearranged in a logically consistent manner, and multiple components can be combined into one or separated. It should be understood that these are also included within the scope of the present invention.

[0043] For example, in this embodiment, the container body 10 and lid 40 are roughly rectangular in plan view (see Figure 1), but the embodiment is not limited to this, and can be appropriately changed to circular or elliptical shapes, etc., depending on the shape of the mirror 49 and the tray member in plan view.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the lid 40 is configured to open and close by rotating around a pin, but the embodiment is not limited to this, and the lid 40 may, for example, rotate around a hinge.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as shown in Figures 4A to 4C, the main body adsorption member 13 on the container body 10 side is first removed from the container body 10, and then, as shown in Figures 5A and 5B, the lid adsorption member 43 is moved from the usage position to the separation position and removed to the outside using the adsorption force acting between the lid adsorption member 43 and the main body adsorption member 13. However, the embodiment is not limited to this. The lid adsorption member 43 may also be adsorbed using a ferromagnetic member other than the main body adsorption member 13 and moved to the separation position and removed to the outside. [Industrial applicability]

[0046] This disclosure can be applied to a variety of compact containers 100 that use a ferromagnetic material such as a magnet to close the lid 40. [Explanation of symbols]
