DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The present invention will be described in more detail be reference to the following embodiments which are presented for purpose of illustration and should not be construed to limit the scope of the invention thereto.

Firstly, structural construction of the present invention is described as follows with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 illustrates an exploded perspective view of a cosmetics case 1 according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the cosmetics case according to the present invention, showing it after opening a cover. FIG. 3 illustrates a sectional view of the cosmetics case according to the present invention, showing it in an assembly status. FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of the cosmetics case, taken along the line A-A of FIG. 1.

The cosmetics case 1 according to the present invention comprises a housing 10 opened at top portion thereof and a cover 20 pivotally hinged and coupled at top portion of the housing 10 to close the housing 10.

Inside the housing 10, a receipt member 11 is fitted to receive multiple cosmetic sets 12 and includes an elastic coil spring 13 at bottom portion thereof, which is fixed around outer side of a guide bar 14 arranged perpendicular to a bottom plate 15 thereof in order to push the receipt member 11 upward.

The receipt member 11 is formed with fitting grooves 16 to receive the cosmetic sets 12 provided according to cosmetic purposes thereof on the top portion thereof, while possessing an inserting groove 19 inserted with the guide bar 14 on a part of bottom to allow the latter to move into/out of the inserting groove 19.

Furthermore, on a part of the top portion of the receipt member 11, provided is a pushing plate receiver 17 having a threshold 18 to be fitted and connected with a pushing plate 22.

The pushing plate 22 is perpendicular to the cover 20 at one side of the cover 20 coupled to top portion of the housing 10. The pushing plate 22 is characterized to be extended and fitted into the pushing plate receiver 17 formed on the top portion of the receipt member 11 by a hinge 21 to freely move, and coupled by the hinge 21 to make the cover 20 and the housing 10 to be integrated.

Practical use and features of the cosmetics case 1 with such construction described above will be illustrated as follows:

FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate the cosmetics case 1 according to the present invention in a closed state.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the user intends to use the cosmetic set 12, the cover 20 is opened around the hinge 21 as an axis by opening the cover 20 and, simultaneously, the cosmetic set 12 is protruded above the housing 10 by the coil spring 13 mounted around outside of the guide bar 14 bouncing upward to push the receipt member 11 upward (FIG. 2).

Thus, the user can use desired one of the cosmetic sets 12 by pulling it out of a corresponding fitting groove 16. After completion of its use, the cosmetic set 12 is returned to the fitting groove 16 and the housing 10 is closed by the cover 20.

When the cover 20 closes the housing 10, bottom end of the pushing plate 22 positioned on one side of the cover 20 is sliding as it is connected to the threshold 18 of the receipt member 11 and forcibly presses down the threshold 18, whereby the receipt member 11 faces downward.

In such case, when the housing 10 is completely closed by the cover 20, since the pushing plate 22 perpendicular to the cover 20 presses the receipt member 11 and retains the cosmetic set 12 within the housing 10 as the carrying and storage status.

The cosmetics case 1 according to the present invention is advantageous to simply and conveniently use and carry the cosmetic set 12 by opening and/or closing the cover 20 to generate pivotal force of the pushing plate 22 and to forcibly permit the receipt member 11 located in the housing 10 to move upward and downward by the pivotal force.

The housing 10 includes a stopper 25 for inhibiting release of the pushing plate 22 out of the top portion of the housing 10, and a pair of hinge holes 26a and 26b disposed on the housing 10 and the cover, respectively.

FIGS. 6 and 7 are an exploded perspective view and an assembled perspective view of a second embodiment according to the present invention which is entirely and substantially identical to the first embodiment described above, except that it adapts a modification of the receipt member 11. More particularly, the second embodiment comprises a number of dent storage parts 31 divided and formed at one side of the receipt member 11a to carry various cosmetics with different uses and colors.

Additionally, provided is a cosmetic mirror 32 under the storage parts 31 reflecting face of the user to support the makeup work. Since the mirror 32 is mounted in the housing 10, it is preferable to make the housing 10 with transparent material able to reflect the user's face in the cosmetic mirror 32.

FIGS. 8 and 9 are an exploded perspective view and an assembled perspective view of a third embodiment according to the present invention which is entirely and substantially identical to the first embodiment described above, except that it further includes a number of storage parts 31 for carrying cosmetics divided and formed at one side of the receipt member 11b to carry various cosmetics, for example, lipsticks with different colors and an opening part 10a at one side of the housing 10.

Accordingly, the user can draw the cosmetic set 12 out of top portion of the housing 10 by opening the cover 20 to raise the receipt member 11 above the housing 10. The storage parts 31 reach a position corresponding to the opening part 10a of the housing 10 by opening the cover 20 to allow the cosmetics to be used.

Accordingly, the portable cosmetics case according to the present invention which includes the receipt members 11, 11a and 11b for cosmetic set 12 in the housing 10 to move upward and downward by opening and closing the cover 20 at top portion of the housing 10 in order to selectively use desirable one among several cosmetic sets 12 on demand and to attain convenient and simple carrying and use thereof.
