Face powder compact
Abstract
A face powder compact including a cosmetic tray for possessing a
grain of face powder on one side and a receiving portion for
accepting a cosmetic set on the other side comprises a base plate,
formed on a bottom of the receiving portion for accepting the
cosmetic set, including array of apertures on up side, and a hinge
at one end for raising a front end of the base plate and; a spring
formed between the bottom of the base plate and a spring groove of
the receiving portion for elastically supporting the front end of
the base plate. The cosmetic set may be a puff and the cosmetic set
may be a brush. Consequently, when closing a lid, the cosmetic set
and a base plate are possessed in a receiving portion while a
spring is compressed. If opening the lid, the compressed spring is
restored, and a front end of the base plate is raised upwardly
while the cosmetic set is separated from the receiving portion and
towards upward. Consequently, the cosmetic set is easily grasped
and reliability of the face powder compact is improved.

Claims
What is claimed is:
1. A face powder compact including a cosmetic tray for possessing a
grain of face powder on one side and a receiving portion for
accepting cosmetic set on the other side comprising: a base plate
21, formed on a bottom of the receiving portion 15 for accepting
the cosmetic set, including an array of apertures 23 on upper side,
and a hinge 22 at one end for raising a front end of the base plate
21 and; a spring 24 formed between the bottom of the base plate 21
and a spring groove 18 of the receiving portion 15 for elastically
supporting the front end of the base plate 21.
2. The face powder compact as claimed in the claim 1, wherein the
cosmetic set is a puff 25.
3. The face powder compact as claimed in the claim 1, wherein the
cosmetic set is a brush 26.
Description
BACKGROUND
[0001] 1. Field of Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a face powder compact, more
particularly to a portable face powder compact capable of easily
taking a puff out of the compact.
[0003] 2. Description of Prior Art
[0004] The conventional face powder compact, as described in FIG.
1, includes a case 2 having a cosmetic tray 3 on one side and a
receiving portion 5 on the other side. The cosmetic tray 3
possesses face powder 4 and the receiving portion 5 accepts a puff
7.
[0005] A lid 6 is hinged on one side of the case 2 in order to
prevent separation of the puff 7 and to protect the face powder
4.
[0006] The conventional face powder compact 1 is convenient to take
the puff 7 out because the puff 7 is entirely inserted in the
receiving portion 5 of the case 2. It is difficult to grasp one
side of the puff 7 when the puff 7 is inserted in the receiving
portion 5. And, the puff 7 may be winkled or torn when picking the
puff out from the receiving portion 5 because a user should pick
upside of the puff 7 using fingers as wrinkling the puff 7.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0007] In order to overcome the conventional problems, an object of
the present utility is to provide a portable face powder compact
for easily grasping a puff.
[0008] In order to accomplish the object, the present utility
provides a face powder compact, which includes a cosmetic tray for
possessing a grain of face powder on one side and a receiving
portion for accepting a cosmetic set on the other side, comprising
a base plate, formed on a bottom of the receiving portion for
accepting the cosmetic set, including array of apertures on up
side, and a hinge at one end for raising a front end of the base
plate and; a spring formed between the bottom of the base plate and
a spring groove of the receiving portion for elastic supporting the
front end of the base plate. The cosmetic set may be a puff or a
brush.
[0009] Consequently, the present utility has some advantages as
follows.
[0010] When closing a lid, the cosmetic set and a base plate are
possessed in a receiving portion while a spring is compressed. If
opening the lid, the compressed spring is restored, and a front end
of the base plate is raised upwardly while the cosmetic set is
separated from the receiving portion and towards upward.
Consequently, the cosmetic set is easily grasped and reliability of
the face powder compact is improved.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0011] These and other features, and advantages of the present
utility will become better understood with regard to the following
description, appended claims, and accompanying drawings, in which
like components are referred to by like reference numerals. In the
drawings:
[0012] FIG. 1 is a plane of the conventional face powder
compact;
[0013] FIG. 2 is a fragmentary perspective of a face powder compact
according to the present utility;
[0014] FIG. 3 is a plane of the face powder compact whose lid is
closed according to the present utility;
[0015] FIG. 4 is a plane of the face powder compact whose lid is
opened according to the present utility; and
[0016] FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective of the face powder
according to one embodiment of the present utility.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0017] Hereinafter, preferred embodiment of the present utility
will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying
drawings.
[0018] In FIG. 2, a face powder compact of the present utility
includes a case 12 and a lid 19 hinged to one side of the case 12
and opens/closes the upper portion of the case 12. A hook 20 is
formed on a front center of the lid, and a ledge 16 is formed on a
front center of the case 12 whose place is corresponding to the
hook 20. At front of the ledge 16, a button 17 is formed to
separate the hook 20 and the ledge 16 when pressing the sides of
the lid 19.
[0019] A cosmetic tray 13 for possessing the face powder 14 is
formed on one side of the case 12, and a receiving portion 15 is
formed on the other side of the case 12.
[0020] The receiving portion 15 includes a spring groove 18 on the
bottom in order to insert a spring 24. And a base plate 21 is
placed on the spring 24.
[0021] The base plate 21, formed on the bottom of the receiving
portion 15 for accepting the cosmetic set such as the puff 25 or a
brush 26, includes an array of apertures 23 on upside, and a hinge
22 at one end for raising the front end of the base plate 21.
[0022] The face powder compact 11 of the present utility contains
the base plate 21 and the puff 25 in the receiving portion 15 of
the case 12 while the spring 24 is compressed when closing the case
12 and the lid 19.
[0023] If the button 17 is pressed, the hook 20 is separated from
the ledge 16 and the lid 19 is opened as described in FIG. 4.
Accordingly, the compressed spring 24 is restored and raises the
front end of the base plate 21.
[0024] Consequently, the front of the puff 25 adhered on the base
plate 21 is led to upward of the receiving portion 15 and easily
grasped.
[0025] In the portable face powder compact of the present utility,
the one side of the puff 25 is protruded out of the receiving
portion 15 when the lid 19 of the compact 11 is opened.
Consequently, a user may easily grasp the puff 25. Besides, the
reliability of the product is improved by providing convenience to
the user.
[0026] Even though the face powder compact of the present utility
is a simple improved utility model, which solved only a simple
problem, the face powder compact is distinguished from other
product with a design which primarily aimed the user.
[0027] FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective of the face powder
according to one embodiment of the present utility.
[0028] FIG. 5 describes the face powder compact which contains a
brush 26 instead of the puff 25. And the face powder compact may
possess other cosmetic set besides the puff 25 and the brush
26.
[0029] Consequently, the present utility has some advantages as
follows.
[0030] When closing a lid 19, the cosmetic set and a base plate 21
are possessed in a receiving portion 15 while a spring is
compressed. If opening the lid 19, the compressed spring 24 is
restored, and a front end of the base plate 21 is raised upwardly
while the cosmetic set is separated from the receiving portion 15
and towards upward. Consequently, the cosmetic set is easily
grasped and reliability of the face powder compact is improved.
