Abstract

A cosmetic case includes an outer case and a drawer-like inner case drawn in or drawn out the outer case, the drawer-like inner case having a space for accommodating cosmetics wherein the outer case has a push-pull locking device therein and the drawer-like inner case has a hooking member outside thereof such that the push-pull locking device is cooperated with the hooking member and the outer case further has a spring therein such that the spring presses the drawer-like inner case in a drawn-out direction, the cosmetic case allows the drawer-like inner case to be automatically drawn in and out the outer case by means of an operation of the push-pull locking device when the user lightly pushes the drawer-like inner case in a drawn-in direction. Thus, it is convenient to carry the cosmetic case and it is prevented from a leakage of the contents.

A drawer-like cosmetic case comprising an outer case and a drawer-like inner case drawn in or drawn out the outer case, the drawer-like inner case having at least one space for putting cosmetic contents wherein the outer case has a push-pull locking device and a pair of springs for pressing the drawer-like inner case in a drawn-out direction therein and the drawer-like inner case has a hooking member outside thereof such that the hooking member is cooperated with the push-pull locking device,

wherein the push-pull locking device includes a guide member, a sliding member moved in a longitudinal direction in the guide member, and a pair of gripping members mounted on the sliding member, the guide member includes a drawn-in path having an inside one-directional projection formed thereon and a drawn-out path having an outside one-directional projection formed thereon, the sliding member has a triggering pin circulated along the drawn-in path and the drawn-out path at a bottom portion thereof, and the pair of gripping members is rotationally mounted on the sliding member such that they are closed when they are in contact with the inside of the guide member.
