Abstract: A vanity case is provided which comprises a case body, a cover member hinged with the case body, and a slide member adapted to effect the latching-unlatching of the cover member. The slide member is slidably disposed in a recess formed at the rear end of the case and has an enlarged portion at its rear end, which portion is, when pushed forwardly against a spring force, made contact with a projection downwardly extending from the rear end of the cover so as to rotate the cover to an open position. A locking means is provided on the slide member to prevent the rotation of the cover when the slider is in the rearmost position.

Abstract: A vanity case is provided which comprises a receptacle and a cover members, a cavity formed in one of the members and a slider element slidably inserted at its inner portion into the cavity. The slider element has an enlarged outer portion and is so arranged that when the slider element is pushed inwardly, the enlarged outer portion exerts such a force as to release a snap engagement of the cover member with the receptacle member. An elastic piece formed integrally with the slider element urges the latter outwardly along the cavity.

Abstract: A cap for closing a bottle shaped container. The cap has an inner lid formed with a ring groove that receives a lateral rib protruding inwardly from an outer lid that encompasses the inner lid. The inner lid has a sealing plate forming the top thereof that has a central portion connected to a side peripheral portion by a flexible hinged structure so that the central portion is movable with respect to the peripheral portion. Cushion material is formed integrally with or attached to the central portion of the inner lid and is contacted by the outer lid to urge the central portion into contact with the container thereby providing an air-tight seal.
