DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the cosmetic box assembly of the present invention comprises a main part 1 and a sub-part 2, wherein the main part 1 includes a first box 11 and a first cover 12 which is pivotably connected to a side of the first box 11. A support member 13 is located in the first box 11 and includes a recessed area 131 so as to receive the sub-part 2 therein. A locking member 132 is connected to a side of the support member 3 so that the first cover 12 can be locked to the locking member 132. A mirror 121 is connected to an inside of the first cover 12. The support member 13 includes a T-shaped member 133 extending from a mediate portion of an inside of the recessed area 131.

The sub-part 2 includes a second box 21 and a second cover 22 which is pivotably connected to a side of the second box 21. The second box 21 and the second cover 22 each have storage recesses 211/221 so that cosmetic items or accessories can be received in the storage recesses 211, 221. The second box 21 and the second cover 22 each have a protrusion 25 which is engaged with the T-shaped member 133 when the sub-part 2 is received in the recessed area 131. It is noted that when the sub-part 2 is received in the recessed area 131 of the support member 3, the second box 21 and the second cover 22 are in opened positions as shown in FIG. 1. The second box 21 and the second cover 22 each include a flange 26 extending from a periphery thereof and the two respective flanges 26 are engaged with a lip on insides of the recessed area 131. Two locking pieces 23, 24 are located on the second box 21 and the second cover 22 respectively so that the second cover 22 can cover the second box 21 by locking the two locking pieces 23, 24 such that the sub-part 2 can be used as an individual box. A recess 135 is defined in one of four sides of the recessed area 131 and the locking piece 23 on the second cover 22 is engaged with the recess 135 so as to be properly positioned the sub-part 2 in the recessed area 131. Besides, the support member 13 includes a storage chamber 134 defined therein for storage of more items.

The cosmetic box assembly is a compact box in which cosmetic items and accessories are organized and stored in the storage recesses 211, 221 of the second box 21 and the storage chamber 134 of the support member 13. The sub-part 2 can also be separated from the support member 13 and used as a cosmetic box which provides necessary storage recesses 211, 221 and the sub-part is small and conveniently carried. The sub-part 2 is easily removed from or assembled to the support member 13 and meets needs of most of the female users.

While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
