BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION (1) Field of the Invention (2) Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 1.98

The disclosure and prior art relates to carry cases and more particularly pertains to a new carry case for maintaining and transporting false eyelashes.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a lower case body having a lower front side separated from a lower rear side, a lower left side separated from a lower right side, a lower bottom side, and an open top side. The lower front side, lower rear side, lower left side, lower right side, and lower bottom side form a lower cavity. An upper case body has a upper front side separated from a upper rear side, a upper left side separated from a upper right side, an upper top side, and an open bottom side. The upper front side, upper rear side, upper left side, upper right side, and upper top side form an upper cavity. A hinge mechanism is coupled to the lower rear side and the upper rear side to allow the upper case body to swingably open to an open position and alternatively close to an alternate closed position sealing the lower cavity and the upper cavity. An upper eyelash holder is coupled to the lower case body within the lower cavity and has a raised perimeter, a raised center, and a pair of depressions extending between the raised perimeter and the raised center. The pair of depressions is configured to secure and match the shape of a pair of false upper eyelashes. A lower eyelash holder is coupled within the upper cavity. The lower eyelash holder has a recessed center and a pair of protrusions extending from the recessed center to the upper left side and the upper right side. The recessed center receives the raised center of the upper eyelash holder and the pair of protrusions is received by the pair of depressions when the upper case body is in the closed position. The pair of protrusions is configured to secure and match the shape of a pair of false lower eyelashes.

There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.

The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.

 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new carry case embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.

As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the false eyelash carry case 10 generally comprises a lower case body 12 having a lower front side 14 separated from a lower rear side 16, a lower left side 18 separated from a lower right side 20, a lower bottom side 22, and an open top side 24. The lower front side 14, lower rear side 16, lower left side 18, lower right side 20, and lower bottom side 22 form a lower cavity 26. An upper case body 28 has a upper front side 30 separated from a upper rear side 32, a upper left side 34 separated from a upper right side 36, an upper top side 38, and an open bottom side 40. The upper front side 30, upper rear side 32, upper left side 34, upper right side 36, and upper top side 38 form an upper cavity 42. A hinge mechanism 44 is coupled to the lower case body 12 and the upper case body 28. The hinge mechanism is coupled to the lower rear side 16 and the upper rear side 32 to allow the upper case body 28 to swingably open to an open position 46 and alternatively close to an alternate closed position 48 sealing the lower cavity 26 and the upper cavity 42. A clasp 50 may be coupled to the upper front side 30 and a clasp receptacle 52 may coupled within the lower front side 14. The clasp 50 is selectively engageable with the clasp receptacle 52 to secure the upper case body 28 in the closed position 48.

An upper eyelash holder 54 is coupled within the lower cavity 26 and has a raised perimeter 56, a raised center 58, and a pair of depressions 60 extending between the raised perimeter 56 and the raised center 58. Each of the pair of depressions 60 may be semi-annular. The pair of depressions 60 is configured to secure and match the shape of a pair of false upper eyelashes 62. A lower eyelash holder 64 is coupled within the upper cavity 42 and has a recessed center 66 and a pair of protrusions 68 extending from the recessed center 66 to the upper left side 34 and the upper right side 36. The recessed center 66 receives the raised center 58 of the upper eyelash holder and the pair of protrusions 68 is received by the pair of depressions 60 when the upper case body 28 is in the closed position 48. Each of the pair of protrusions 68 may be semi-annular. The pair of protrusions 68 is configured to secure and match the shape of a pair of false lower eyelashes 70. In the closed position 48, each of the pair of false lower eyelashes 70 and the pair of false upper eyelashes 62 are held between the pair of protrusions 68 and the pair of depressions 60 to maintain their shape.

There may be a plurality of eyelash adhesives 72 comprising a pair of upper eyelash adhesives 74 coupled to the upper eyelash holder 54 proximal the raised center 58 and a pair of lower eyelash adhesives 76 coupled to the lower eyelash holder 64 adjacent the recessed center 66. The pair of upper eyelash adhesives 74 is configured to secure the pair of false upper eyelashes 62 and the pair of lower eyelash adhesives 76 is configured to secure the pair of false lower eyelashes 70. A round mirror 78 may be coupled to the recessed center 66 of the lower eyelash holder to aid a user in applying the pair of false upper eyelashes 62 and the pair of false lower eyelashes 70.

In use, a user removes the pair of false upper eyelashes 62 and the pair of false lower eyelashes 70 from his or her eyes and places them into the pair of depressions 60 of the upper eyelash holder and onto the pair of protrusions 68 of the lower eyelash holder, respectively. The upper case body 12 is then moved from the open position 46 to the closed position 48 to safely store the pair of false lower eyelashes 70 and the pair of false upper eyelashes 62.

With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.

Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
