ABSTRACT:
A new style of a compact case for cosmetics and a powder puff is provided with a smooth outer surface without protruding portions. Due to the soft and elastic front structure connected to the latching device, it is convenient and easy to open and close simply by pressing the front surface of the circumference frame. A structure of a compact case comprises the following components: a cylindrically-shaped lower case (40) integrally formed with a recessed axle-bearing portion (41) for mounting a hinge axle, a cylindrically-shaped cover (10) integrally formed with a hook at the front portion and a projected hinge (11) at the rear portion for rotatably mounting to the recessed axle-bearing portion (41) through the hinge axle, a circumferential, cylindrically-shaped external frame (30) with a soft, elastic front portion for releasing the hook by pressing the front external surface, the circumferential external frame (30) disposed between the lower case (40) and the cover (10), a latching slot (31) located on an arcuated segment (31a) of the circumferential external frame (30) for latching the hook, and an inner liner (20) formed with a cylindrically-shaped lateral skirt and a disk-shaped flange (21) at the top surface and inserted inside of the circumferential external frame (30).
