ABSTRACT:
A compact case for sealingly supporting and enclosing a cosmetic preparation. A receptacle for the cosmetic preparation is mounted on a lower cover by means of a flexible annular member which permits relative movement between the receptacle and the lower cover in both axial and radial direction. The receptacle includes a platform and a first annular rim which projects from the platform. An upper cover hinged to a lower cover for movement between open and closed positions includes a second annular rim fittingly engageable with the first annular rim when the upper cover is moved to the closed position. The receptacle has a flexible annular member of "V" or "U" shaped cross section around it to permit movement of the receptacle in vertical and horizontal directions. This movement accommodates the mating closure rim and assures that an effective circumferential seal is always obtained between the annular rims. In some instances, the mating surfaces of the annular rims may be tapered, or one or the other of the rims may be hollowed out to form a "V"-shaped cross section. The annular members may also be made of dissimilar materials.
