【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、携帯容易に化粧料を収納する気密コンパクト容器に関し、とりわけ、化粧皿を収納する容器本体に蓋体が開閉自在に蝶着され、蓋体の裏側に設けたパッキン材が化粧皿の周縁部上面に圧接されるようになった気密コンパクト容器に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
一般に、化粧料を携帯する際にコンパクト容器が用いられるが、このコンパクト容器は容器本体内に設けられる中枠に化粧皿を形成し、この化粧皿内に化粧料を収納すると共に、容器本体の後端部に開閉自在に蝶着される蓋体を設け、この蓋体で容器本体上側を覆うようになっている。そして、容器本体と蓋体との前端部間に設けられるフック機構で蓋体の閉止状態が保持され、かつ、このフック機構を解除するためのプッシュボタンが容器本体の前端部から突出されるのが一般的な構造となっている。
【０００３】
ところで、この種のコンパクト容器では化粧皿の気密性を保持するために、例えば実公平６−２５８５号公報に開示されるように蓋体の裏側にパッキン材を設け、蓋体を閉止した際に前記パッキン材のシール部分が化粧皿の周縁部上面に圧接されるようになっている。尚、かかる提案ではシール部分と並列して切欠かれたヒンジ溝が弾発力を発生するようになっている。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、かかる従来の気密コンパクト容器にあっては、蓋体を閉止した際にパッキン材が化粧皿の気密を保持するための保持力（作用力）は、支点となる蓋体の蝶着部分と、力点となるフック機構の係合部分とで決定される。このため、前記蝶着部分にガタ付きがあると、作用点となるシール部分までの距離が著しく短いこともあって前記気密保持力を十分に確保することができないため、この蝶着部分には高い組み付け精度が要求される。従って、組付け精度を高く確保しなければならないことから組付け作業が煩雑で組立性に劣り、結果的に高コストな製品となってしまう。
【０００５】
また、前記フック機構を解除するためのプッシュボタンを容器本体に対してスライド可能に独立して取付ける必要があり、このスライド部分の精度を確保する必要があると共に、プッシュボタンにはスプリング等の復帰手段を別途設ける必要があり、操作部分の部品点数が大幅に増加すると共に、その組付け性が大幅に複雑化することにより、製品の更なるコストアップが余儀なくされてしまうという課題があった。
【０００６】
そこで、本発明はかかる従来の課題に鑑みて、容器本体と蓋体との蝶着部分の精度に関係なく化粧皿内の気密性を十分に確保すると共に、組付け部品点数を削減することができる気密コンパクト容器を提供することを目的とする。
【０００７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
かかる目的を達成するために本発明の気密コンパクト容器の第１の構成は、化粧皿を設けた中枠を受容する容器本体と、該容器本体に開閉自在に蝶着される蓋体とを備え、該蓋体の裏側に設けたパッキン材が該蓋体の閉止状態で該化粧皿の周縁部上面に圧接され、該化粧皿の内方を気密状態に保持するようになった気密コンパクト容器において、該中枠を該容器本体に対してスライド可能に配置すると共に、該中枠から一体にプッシュボタンを突設して、該プッシュボタンを該容器本体に形成した開口部に位置させ、かつ、これら中枠と容器本体との間に該中枠を復帰方向に押圧する付勢手段を設け、該中枠に該化粧皿を取り囲んで適宜間隔を隔てて複数の第１係合突起を設けると共に、該蓋体の閉止状態で該第１係合突起にそれぞれ係合される複数の第２係合突起を該蓋体に設け、かつ、これら中枠及び蓋体の少なくともいずれか一方に、該中枠のスライドで係合解除される該第１係合突起若しくは該第２係合突起のいずれかを該蓋体の開放方向へ押圧する傾斜面を形成したことを特徴とする。
【０００８】
また、本発明の気密コンパクト容器の第２の構成は、化粧皿を設けた中枠を受容する容器本体と、該容器本体に開閉自在に蝶着される蓋体とを備え、該蓋体の裏側に設けたパッキン材が該蓋体の閉止状態で該化粧皿の周縁部上面に圧接され、該化粧皿の内方を気密状態に保持するようになった気密コンパクト容器において、該中枠を該容器本体に対してスライド可能に配置すると共に、該中枠から一体にプッシュボタンを突設して、該プッシュボタンを該容器本体に形成した開口部に位置させ、かつ、該中枠に該化粧皿を取り囲んで適宜間隔を隔てて複数の第１係合突起を設けると共に、該蓋体の閉止状態で該第１係合突起にそれぞれ係合される複数の第２係合突起を該蓋体に設け、かつ、これら中枠及び蓋体の少なくともいずれか一方に、該中枠のスライドで係合解除される該第１係合突起若しくは該第２係合突起のいずれかを該蓋体の開放方向へ押圧する傾斜面を形成したことを特徴とする。
【０００９】
更に、本発明の気密コンパクト容器の第３の構成は、化粧皿を設けた中枠を受容する容器本体と、該容器本体に開閉自在に蝶着される蓋体とを備え、該蓋体の裏側に設けたパッキン材が該蓋体の閉止状態で該化粧皿の周縁部上面に圧接され、該化粧皿の内方を気密状態に保持するようになった気密コンパクト容器において、該中枠を該容器本体に対してスライド可能に配置すると共に、該中枠から一体にプッシュボタンを突設して、該プッシュボタンを該容器本体に形成した開口部に位置させ、かつ、これら中枠と容器本体との間に該中枠を復帰方向に押圧する付勢手段を設け、該中枠に該化粧皿を取り囲んで適宜間隔を隔てて複数の第１係合突起を設けると共に、該蓋体の閉止状態で該第１係合突起にそれぞれ係合される複数の第２係合突起を該蓋体に設け、これら第１，第２係合突起の係合長さを該中枠のスライド量より短く設定したことを特徴とする。
【００１０】
【作用】
以上の構成により本発明の第１の構成に示す気密コンパクト容器は、中枠をスライド可能として、この中枠を、プッシュボタンを押圧することにより移動できるようになっており、蓋体の閉止時には前記中枠に設けた第１係合突起に、蓋体に設けた第２係合突起が係合されるようになっており、この閉止状態でパッキン材により化粧皿の周縁部上面が密閉されて気密状態となる。このとき、前記第１係合突起は中枠に化粧皿を取り囲んで適宜間隔を隔てて複数が配置されるようになっているため、第１係合突起と第２係合突起との係合のみによって専ら化粧皿の気密保持を行うことができる。従って、容器本体と蓋体との蝶着部分の精度が化粧皿の密閉に影響することはなく、この蝶着部分の構成および組付け作業を簡単化することができる。ところで、前記蓋体の開放は、中枠から一体に突設したプッシュボタンを押圧することにより、この中枠が移動して第１，第２係合突起の係合状態が解除されると共に、これら中枠及び蓋体の少なくともいずれか一方に、中枠のスライドで係合解除される第１係合突起若しくは第２係合突起のいずれかを蓋体の開放方向へ押圧する傾斜面を形成したので、係合を解除した後にこの傾斜面と係合突起とで蓋体を若干押し上げることができるため、蓋体の開動操作が容易になる。更に、移動した中枠はプッシュボタンから手を離すことにより付勢手段で自動的に復帰方向に移動し、この復帰状態で第１係合突起が第２係合突起に対応した位置となり、蓋体を閉止することにより第１，第２係合突起が互いに係合される。
【００１１】
また、本発明の第２の構成に示す気密コンパクト容器は、前記第１の構成と同様に中枠に設けた第１係合突起と蓋体に設けた第２係合突起とが係合されることにより蓋体の閉止状態が保持され、前記第１係合突起が化粧皿を取り囲んで複数配置されることにより、化粧皿の気密状態が蝶番の精度とは無関係に、第１，第２係合突起の係合状態で保持される。ところで、前記蓋体の開放は、中枠から一体に突設したプッシュボタンを押圧することにより、この中枠が移動して第１，第２係合突起の係合状態が解除されると共に、これら中枠及び蓋体の少なくともいずれか一方に、中枠のスライドで係合解除される第１係合突起若しくは第２係合突起のいずれかを蓋体の開放方向へ押圧する傾斜面を形成したので、係合を解除した後にこの傾斜面と係合突起とで蓋体を若干押し上げることができるため、蓋体の開動操作が容易になる。更に、蓋体を開放状態から閉止する際には、この蓋体の閉動作によって係合突起で前記傾斜面を押圧して中枠を復帰方向に移動すると共に、この中枠の復帰状態で第１，第２係合突起を互いに係合することができる。従って、前記プッシュボタンを中枠から一体に突設したことと相俟って、中枠を復帰させるための付勢手段を廃止することができるため、部品点数を更に削減することができる。
【００１２】
更に、本発明の第３の構成に示す気密コンパクト容器は、前記各構成と同様に蓋体の閉止時に係合される第１，第２係合突起は、化粧皿を取り囲んで複数配置されているため、化粧皿の気密状態が蝶番の精度とは無関係に、第１，第２係合突起の係合状態で専ら保持される。また、この構成では蓋体の閉止状態からプッシュボタンを押圧して中枠を移動すると、第１，第２係合突起の係合長さを中枠のスライド量より短く設定してあるため、これら第１，第２係合突起の係合状態が解除されて蓋体を手動で開動することができる。そして、移動した中枠はプッシュボタンの押圧を解除することにより、付勢手段で自動的に復帰方向に移動し、この状態で蓋体を閉止することにより第２係合突起が第１係合突起に係合される。従って、この構成にあっても蝶番の高精度な組付け作業が要求されることはないとともに、部品点数の削減を図って組付け作業の簡略化を図ることができる。
【００１３】
【実施例】
以下、本発明の実施例を添付図面を参照して詳細に説明する。図１から図８は本発明の気密コンパクト容器の第１実施例を示し、図１は蓋体を半開した状態の斜視図、図２は蓋体を全開した状態の平面図、図３は図２のＡ−Ａ線断面図、図４は図３中Ｂ部分の拡大断面図、図５は図２のＣ−Ｃ線に対応した蓋体の全閉状態の拡大断面側面図、図６はプッシュボタンの押圧状態を示す図５に対応する拡大断面側面図、図７は第１，第２係合突起の係合状態を示す要部拡大断面図、図８は第１，第２係合突起の解除状態を示す要部拡大断面図である。
【００１４】
即ち、本実施例の気密コンパクト容器１０は図１，図２に示すように、容器本体１２と、この容器本体１２の後端部に蝶番１４を介して蝶着される蓋体１６とを備え、容器本体１２には化粧皿１８（図３参照）を設けた中枠２０が受容される。前記蝶番１４は、容器本体１２の後端部中央に形成した凹部１４ａに、蓋体１６の後端部中央に形成した凸部１４ｂを嵌合して、これら凹部１４ａと凸部１４ｂとに跨がって両側部分から蝶番ピン１４ｃを挿入することにより構成される。
【００１５】
一方、前記容器本体１２は周縁部に壁面１２ａを形成して、その内側部分に凹部１２ｂが設けられ、この凹部１２ｂ内に前記中枠２０が受容される。中枠２０は前記化粧皿１８を嵌合する筒部２０ａが形成されると共に、この筒部２０ａの上端部に前記容器本体１２の凹部１２ｂを覆うフランジ部２０ｂが形成され、このフランジ部２０ｂの外周縁部が容器本体１２の壁面１２ａの内周縁部上面に重合して載置されるようになっている。前記筒部２０ａの内側面にはダボ２０ｃが突設されると共に、前記化粧皿１８の外側面には係合凹部１８ａが形成され、この係合凹部１８ａがダボ２０ｃに係合されて化粧皿１８の固定が行われる。また、前記化粧皿１８の上側周縁部にはフランジ部１８ｂが形成され、このフランジ部１８ｂが前記筒部２０ａの上側周縁部を凹設して形成した段部２０ｄに嵌合されて、化粧皿１８のフランジ１８ｂと中枠２０のフランジ部２０ｂの上面が面一となっている。
【００１６】
前記中枠２０の筒部２０ａと容器本体１２の壁面１２ａとの後側（図２中上方）間には所定の隙間δが設けられると共に、前記フランジ部２０ｂの両側部分には、化粧皿１８の周縁部に配置されるように前後に計４箇所の凹設部２０ｅが適宜間隔をもって形成され、この凹設部２０ｅの外側面が前記壁面１２ａの左右方向内側に密接して相対移動可能に当接されることにより、中枠２０が容器本体１２に対して前後方向にスライド可能となっている。また、凹設部２０ｅが壁面１２ａの左右方向内側に当接される際、凹設部２０ｅの下側から外方に突設された突起部２０ｆが、壁面１２ａに形成された前後溝１２ｃに係合されて、中枠２０が容器本体１２から抜脱されるのが防止される。
【００１７】
前記中枠２０の前端部中央にはプッシュボタン２２が一体に突設され、このプッシュボタン２２が前記壁面１２ａの前端部に切欠かれた開口部１２ｄから突出され、このプッシュボタン２２を押圧することにより中枠２０が後方に移動される。また、中枠２０と容器本体１２との後端部間の前記間隙δ部分には付勢手段としての板ばね２４が配置され、この板ばね２４によって中枠２０は移動復帰方向つまり前方に付勢される。
【００１８】
一方、前記蓋体１６の裏面１６ａには化粧皿１８の配置部分に対応してパッキン材２６が取付けられ、このパッキン材２６の周縁部に連続して形成される凸条２６ａが、蓋体１６の閉止状態で化粧皿１８のフランジ部１８ｂ上面に圧接され、化粧皿１８内部の気密が保持されるようになっている。
【００１９】
ここで、本実施例では前記中枠２０の凹設部２０ｅの化粧皿１８側内側に第１係合突起３０を突設すると共に、蓋体１６の裏面には前記第１係合突起３０に対応する位置に、凹設部２０ｅ内に嵌合可能な４本の支柱３２を突設し、それぞれの支柱３２の先端部内側に前記第１係合突起３０に係合可能な第２係合突起３４を形成する。また、前記凹設部２０ｅの前方側内側、つまり中枠２０の移動反対方向の内側に、後方に行くに従って下方に傾斜する傾斜面３６を形成する。傾斜面３６は図７に示すように、少なくとも第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合が解除される距離Ｌを隔てて形成される。尚、前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合部分長さは、中枠２０のスライド可能量より短く設定される。
【００２０】
以上の構成により本実施例の気密コンパクト容器１０は、図２に示すように中枠２０は自然状態では板ばね２４により前方側に付勢されて、プッシュボタン２２が容器本体１２の前端から突出された状態にある。この状態で図１，図２に示すように開放状態にある蓋体１６を、図３，図５に示すように閉止することにより、蓋体１６から突設する支柱３２は中枠２０の凹設部２０ｅに挿入され、第２係合突起３４が第１係合突起３０を乗り越えるように支柱３２が拡開され、乗り越えた時点で第２係合突起３４は図４に示すように第１係合突起３０に係合される。このように第１，第２係合突起３０，３４が係合されることにより、蓋体１６は閉止状態が保持されると共に、パッキン材２６の凸条２６ａが化粧皿１８のフランジ部１８ｂに圧接されて、この化粧皿１８内部の気密性が保たれる。
【００２１】
次に、閉止状態にある前記蓋体１６を開放する際には、プッシュボタン２２を押圧することにより中枠２０が後方に移動し、第１係合突起３０は図７に示す状態から前方に移動し、図８に示すように第２係合突起３４から離脱されて係合解除される。この状態で更に中枠２０が移動されることにより、第２係合突起３４は傾斜面３６に押し上げられて蓋体１６が若干開動され、その後、蓋体１６は手動で押し開かれることになる。
【００２２】
ところで、前記蓋体１６の閉止状態は前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合で保持されるが、第１係合突起３０が化粧皿１８の周縁部を取り囲むように４箇所配置されているため、これら第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合のみによってパッキン材２６による化粧皿１８の気密性を保持することができる。従って、蓋体１６を容器本体１２に開閉自在に取付ける蝶番１４に高い精度を要求する必要がなく、凹部１４ａと凸部１４ｂとの嵌合精度とか、蝶番ピン１４ｃの組み付け精度に高精度を要求されることがなく、延いては、蝶番１４の組付け作業性を著しく向上することができる。
【００２３】
また、本実施例では前記プッシュボタン２２が中枠２０から一体に突設されるため、このプッシュボタン２２と中枠２０とを一体成形により形成することができ、部品点数の削減を達成することができる。
【００２４】
ところで、前記実施例では傾斜面３６を第１係合突起３０から、第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合を離脱するに必要な距離Ｌを離して形成したものを開示したが、これに限ることなく図９，図１０に示すように、傾斜面３６を第１係合突起３０の近傍に近付けて形成することができる。この場合、中枠２０の移動によって第１，第２係合突起３０，３４が係合解除される前に、傾斜面３６が第２係合突起３４に当接される。そして、この当接した後に更に中枠２０を強制的に移動することにより、第２係合突起３４は前記傾斜面３６によって上方への押し上げ力が作用し、この第２係合突起３４は支柱３２を外方に拡開しつつ第１係合突起３０を乗り越えて、これら第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合が解除される。
【００２５】
ところで、前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合が解除された際、第２係合突起３４が第１係合突起３０を乗り越えた際に、支柱３２が内方に閉じられようとするばね力が作用して蓋体１６は瞬発力をもって大きく開動される。従って、最終的に手動で蓋体１６を開放するのが容易になる。
【００２６】
また、この実施例では前記傾斜面３６が第１係合突起３０の近傍に形成されたことにより、蓋体１６を閉止する際には第２係合突起３４がこの傾斜面３６を下方に押圧して中枠２０を強制的に前方に移動させ、これら第１，第２係合突起３０，３４を係合させることができる。従って、この実施例では中枠２０を前方に復帰させるための板ばね２４を設ける必要がなくなり、部品点数の更なる削減を図ることができる。因に、この実施例にあっては第１，第２係合突起３０．３４の係合部分長さを、中枠２０のスライド可能量より短く設定する必要はない。
【００２７】
図１１，図１２は本発明の第２実施例を示し、前記実施例と同一構成部分に同一符号を付して重複する説明を省略して述べる。尚、図１１は蓋体を全開した状態の平面図、図１２は図１１のＤ−Ｄ線に対応した蓋体の閉止状態の断面図である。
【００２８】
即ち、この実施例では中枠２０に、化粧皿１８を収納する筒部２０ａ以外にパフ等の小物入れ４０を並設したもので、蓋体１６の裏面１６ａには化粧皿１８を覆うパッキン材２６と前記収納部４０を覆うバニティミラー４２とを並設してある。そして、蓋体１６の閉止時には前記パッキン材２６の凸条２６ａがフランジ部１８ｂ上面に圧接されて、前記実施例と同様に化粧皿１８内部が気密保持される。
【００２９】
前記蓋体１６は凹部１４ａ，凸部１４ｂおよび蝶番ピン１４ｃからなる蝶番１４を介して容器本体１２の後端部に開閉自在に蝶着され、かつ、中枠２０に形成される凹設部２０ｅは前記第１実施例と同様に化粧皿１８の周縁部の両側部分前後に４箇所形成される。そして、前記蓋体１６の裏側から突設した支柱３２先端部の第２係合突起３４が、蓋体１６の閉止状態で前記凹設部２０ｅに形成した第１係合突起３０に係合される。また、前記凹設部２０ｅの前端部には、蓋体１６の開放時に第２係合突起３４を上方に押し上げるための傾斜面３６が形成される。
【００３０】
尚、この実施例にあっても前記中枠２０は容器本体１２に対して前後方向にスライド可能になっており、それぞれの後端部間に板ばね２４が配置されて、中枠２０を前方に付勢すると共に、中枠２０の前端部中央に一体に形成したプッシュボタン２２が容器本体１２の開口部１２ｄから突出される。また、前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合部分長さを中枠２０のスライド可能量より短く設定してある。
【００３１】
従って、この実施例にあっても第１係合突起３０を化粧皿１８の周縁部に複数箇所形成したことにより、蓋体１６を閉止した際にパッキン材２６による化粧皿１８内部の密閉状態を、専ら前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合で保持することができるため、蝶番１４の高精度な組付け精度を要求されることがないと共に、プッシュボタン２２が中枠２０と一体成形できることにより、部品点数の削減を達成できる。
【００３２】
図１３から図１７は本発明の第３実施例を示し、前記各実施例と同一構成部分に同一符号を付して重複する説明を省略して述べる。尚、図１３は蓋体を全開した状態の斜視図、図１４は蓋体を全開した状態の平面図、図１５は図１４中Ｅ−Ｅ線に対応した蓋体の閉止状態の断面図、図１６は図１４中Ｆ−Ｆ線に対応した蓋体の閉止状態の断面図、図１７は蓋体の開動初期状態を示す図１６に対応した断面図である。
【００３３】
即ち、この実施例にあっても図１３，図１４に示すように、蓋体１６は蝶番１４を介して開閉自在に容器本体１２に蝶着されると共に、前記第２実施例と同様に中枠２０には化粧皿１８を収納する筒部２０ａと小物入れ４０が並設され、蓋体１６の裏側にはパッキン材２６およびバニティミラー４２が並設される。また、前記中枠２０の前端部中央にはプッシュボタン２２が一体成形されると共に、この中枠２０と容器本体１２の後端部間に板ばね２４が配置されている。
【００３４】
ここで、この実施例では前記筒部２０ａを中枠２０の一般上面から上方に突出させ、この突出した壁面２０ｇの外側面に第１係合突起３０を突設するようになっている。尚、蓋体１６の閉止時には前記パッキン材２６の凸条２６ａが、突出した筒部２０ａの上端面に圧接されるようになっている。また、前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合部分長さを中枠２０のスライド可能量より短く設定してある。
【００３５】
従って、この実施例では図１５に示すように蓋体１６を閉止した状態では、前記各実施例と同様に蓋体１６の裏側に形成した支柱３２先端部の第２係合突起３４が前記第１係合突起３０に係合されており、図１６の閉止状態から蓋体１６を開放する際には、図１７に示すように中枠２０に伴って第１係合突起３０が移動して、第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合が解除され、この解除状態で蓋体１６を手動で開動する。次に、蓋体１６を閉止する際には、中枠２０が板ばね２４の付勢力で前方に復帰されて第１，第２係合突起３０，３４が相対する位置となっており、蓋体１６の閉止力で第２係合突起３４が支柱３２の変形を伴いつつ第１係合突起３０を乗り越えて係合される。
【００３６】
従って、この実施例にあっても前記各実施例と同様に、化粧皿１８の周縁部に４箇所設けられた第１係合突起３０と、これらに係合される第２係合突起３４とによって、パッキン材２６による化粧皿１８の気密保持を行うことができるため、蝶番１４の高精度な組付け精度を要求されることがないとともに、かつ、中枠２０に一体化されるプッシュボタン２２によって部品点数の削減を可能とする。
【００３７】
図１８から図２２は本発明の第４実施例を示し、前記各実施例と同一構成部分に同一符号を付して重複する説明を省略して述べる。尚、図１８は蓋体を全開した状態の斜視図、図１９は蓋体を全開した状態の平面図、図２０は図１９中Ｇ−Ｇ線に対応した蓋体の閉止状態の断面図、図２１は図１９中Ｈ−Ｈ線に対応した蓋体の閉止状態の断面図、図２２は蓋体の開動初期状態を示す図２１に対応した断面図である。
【００３８】
即ち、この実施例にあっても図１８，図１９に示すように、蓋体１６は蝶番１４を介して開閉自在に容器本体１２に蝶着されると共に、前記第２，第３実施例と同様に中枠２０には化粧皿１８を収納する筒部２０ａと小物入れ４０が並設され、蓋体１６の裏側にはパッキン材２６およびバニティミラー４２が並設される。また、前記中枠２０の前端部中央にはプッシュボタン２２が一体成形されると共に、この中枠２０と容器本体１２の後端部間には図２１，図２２に示すように板ばね２４が配置されている。更に、前記第３実施例と同様に前記筒部２０ａを中枠２０の一般上面から上方に突出させ、この突出した壁面２０ｇの外側面に第１係合突起３０が突設される。
【００３９】
ここで、この実施例では蓋体１６の裏側に、パッキン材２６の外周を囲繞して前記筒部２０ａの突出部分外周に嵌合される立壁４４を形成し、この立壁４４の内側に第２係合突起３４を形成するようになっている。また、前記第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合部分長さを中枠２０のスライド可能量より短く設定してある。
【００４０】
従って、この実施例では図２０に示すように蓋体１６を閉止した状態では、立壁４４の内側の第２係合突起３４が筒部２０ａの外側の第１係合突起３０に係合されており、図２１の閉止状態から蓋体１６を開放する際には、図２２に示すように中枠２０に伴って第１係合突起３０が移動して、第１，第２係合突起３０，３４の係合が解除され、この解除状態で蓋体１６を手動で開動する。次に、蓋体１６を閉止する際には、中枠２０が板ばね２４の付勢力で前方に復帰されて第１，第２係合突起３０，３４が相対する位置となっており、蓋体１６の閉止力で第２係合突起３４が、立壁４４および筒部２０ａ両者の撓み変形を伴いつつ第１係合突起３０を乗り越えて係合される。
【００４１】
従って、この実施例にあっても前記各実施例と同様に、化粧皿１８の周縁部に４箇所設けられた第１係合突起３０と第２係合突起３４との係合によって、パッキン材２６による化粧皿１８の気密保持を行うことができるため、蝶番１４の高精度な組付け精度を要求されることがなく、かつ、中枠２０に一体化されるプッシュボタン２２によって部品点数の削減を可能とする。
【００４２】

[0010]
[Action]
With the above configuration, the airtight compact container according to the first configuration of the present invention is configured such that the inner frame can be slid, and the inner frame can be moved by pressing a push button. When the lid is closed, The second engagement projection provided on the lid is engaged with the first engagement projection provided on the middle frame, and in this closed state, the upper surface of the peripheral portion of the decorative dish is sealed by the packing material. It becomes airtight. At this time, since a plurality of the first engagement protrusions are arranged at appropriate intervals surrounding the decorative dish in the middle frame, the engagement between the first engagement protrusions and the second engagement protrusions is performed. Only by this means can the airtightness of the decorative dish be maintained. Therefore, the precision of the hinged portion between the container body and the lid does not affect the sealing of the decorative dish, and the construction and assembly work of the hinged portion can be simplified. By the way, when the lid is opened, by pressing a push button integrally projecting from the middle frame, the middle frame moves to release the engagement state of the first and second engagement projections, An inclined surface is formed on at least one of the middle frame and the lid to press either the first engagement projection or the second engagement projection disengaged by sliding the middle frame in the opening direction of the lid. Since the lid can be slightly pushed up by the inclined surface and the engagement protrusion after the engagement is released, the opening operation of the lid becomes easy. Further, the moved middle frame is automatically moved in the return direction by the urging means when the hand is released from the push button, and in this returned state, the first engagement protrusion is at a position corresponding to the second engagement protrusion. By closing the body, the first and second engagement projections are engaged with each other.

Since the lid can be slightly pushed up by the inclined surface and the engagement protrusion after the engagement is released, the opening operation of the lid becomes easy. Furthermore, when closing the lid from the open state, the closing operation of the lid pushes the inclined surface with the engagement protrusion to move the middle frame in the return direction, and in the return state of the middle frame, The first and second engaging projections can be engaged with each other. Therefore, in combination with the fact that the push button is integrally protruded from the middle frame, the urging means for returning the middle frame can be eliminated, so that the number of parts can be further reduced.
[0012]
Furthermore, in the airtight compact container according to the third configuration of the present invention, a plurality of first and second engagement projections that are engaged when the lid is closed are arranged so as to surround the decorative dish, similarly to the above configurations. Therefore, the airtight state of the decorative dish is exclusively held in the engagement state of the first and second engagement projections regardless of the accuracy of the hinge. Further, in this configuration, when the push button is pressed from the closed state of the lid to move the middle frame, the engagement length of the first and second engagement protrusions is set to be shorter than the sliding amount of the middle frame. The engagement state of the first and second engagement projections is released, and the lid can be manually opened. The moved middle frame is automatically moved in the returning direction by the urging means by releasing the push of the push button, and by closing the lid in this state, the second engagement projection is brought into the first engagement state. The projection is engaged. Therefore, even in this configuration, there is no need to perform a highly accurate assembling operation of the hinge, and it is possible to simplify the assembling operation by reducing the number of parts.
