Description

  The present invention relates to a coating film transfer tool in which a transfer tape is exchangeably incorporated in an openable / closable container composed of a container body and a lid.

  The container in the coating film transfer tool incorporating the transfer tape in a replaceable manner has a lid body connected to the container main body by a hinge portion so as to be freely opened and closed (for example, Patent Document 1).

  In the container disclosed in Patent Document 1, the hinge part is integrally formed with a synthetic resin material that forms the container body and the lid, and the hinge part utilizes the hinge characteristics of the material. .

  However, such a hinge part may not only deteriorate and break when the lid is opened and closed repeatedly, but in order to increase the durability of the hinge part, it is necessary to use a material having excellent hinge characteristics such as polypropylene. Since the material to be used is limited, the degree of freedom in design is reduced accordingly.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 6 which is an enlarged perspective view of the main part of the container, a coating film transfer tool (01) in which a transfer tape is exchangeably incorporated in an openable container is commercially available.

  The container (02) is provided with a pair of support protrusions (05) (05) on the outside of the side wall (04) of the container body (03), and surfaces of the support protrusions (05) (05) facing each other. (06) and (06) are provided with locking plugs (07) and (07), and on the peripheral edge (09) of the lid (08), the opposing surfaces (06) of the pair of support protrusions (05) and (05) (06) Provided with a protrusion (010) that can be inserted between the engagement holes (012) (012) on both end faces (011) (011), and the engagement holes (012) (012) The locking plugs (07) and (07) are engaged with each other to form a hinge portion (013), and the lid (08) is connected to the container body (03) so as to be freely opened and closed.

However, in the case of such a hinge part (013), when a large load is applied due to rough handling or the like when the lid (08) is opened and closed, the locking plug (07) is damaged, and the lid (08) Detaches from the container body (03) and cannot be repaired. Furthermore, there is also a problem that the hinge part (013) protruding outside the container (02) hits the hand during use and becomes an obstacle.
