Provided is a compact case including a cover 20, which slides parallel to the case body 10 and the fore end of the cover 20 is lifted upward by the rotating operation of the rail member 30 when the case 20 is located at the point that opening operation is completed, so that the cover 20 becomes leaned against the case body 10. According to the compact case of the present invention, user can makeup conveniently with looking at the portion to makeup in the mirror 21 attached to the cover 20, working efficiency to assemble the compact case can be improved due to the simplified structure, the cost can be reduced remarkably and stable, luxury and soft touch in use can be achieved due to the soft operation to open or close.

1. A compact case, comprising: a case body;a content plate hingedly connecting to and residing inside the case body;a cover having a front end and a rear end slidably mounted on the case body and movable between a closed position and an open position;a repulsive member exerting a generally upward pushing force on a pushing member, the pushing member exerting the generally upward pushing force indirectly on the cover while the cover is moving from the closed position to the open position;a rail plate having a pair of rails, wherein the rail plate is attached to the cover;a rail member having a pair of rail guides to allow a sliding movement of the cover; andwherein when the cover moves from the closed position to the open position, the cover slides to one side of the case body and exposes the content plate, the front end of the cover disengages from the case body while the rear end of the cover is attached to the case body, a surface of the pushing member applies the generally upward pushing force indirectly to the cover in a direction generally upward and away from the case body, thereby raising the cover to the open position with its front end defining a predetermined angle with respect to the case body and its rear end attached to the case body and wherein when the cover is tilted, its rear end is attached to the case body by engaging the rail member pivotally and directly mounted on the case body. 2. The compact case of claim 1, wherein the repulsive member is a coil spring or a plate spring. 3. The compact case of claim 1, wherein the repulsive member is normally in a state of compression. 4. The compact case of claim 1, wherein when the cover moves to the open position, the rear end pivots within an activity area proximate the repulsive member. 5. The compact case of claim 1, wherein the pushing member includes a partially-arcuate pushing surface which applies the generally upward pushing force to a rotatable rail member in contact with a back surface of the cover, the rail member being positioned to rotate upon application thereto of the generally upward pushing force, thereby moving the cover generally upward and away from the case body. 6. A compact case, comprising: a case body;a content plate hingedly connecting to and residing inside the case body;a cover having a front end and a rear end slidably mounted on the case body and movable between a closed position and an open position;a repulsive member exerting a generally upward pushing force indirectly on the cover while the cover is moving from the closed position to the open position;a rail plate having a pair of rails, wherein the rail plate is attached to the cover;a rail member having a pair of rail guides to allow a sliding movement of the cover; andwherein when the cover moves from the closed position to the open position, the cover slides to one side of the case body and exposes the content plate, the front end of the cover disengages from the case body while the rear end of the cover is attached to the case body, the repulsive member applies the generally upward pushing force indirectly to the cover in a direction generally upward and away from the case body, thereby raising the cover to the open position with its front end defining a predetermined angle with respect to the case body and its rear end attached to the case body and wherein when the cover is tilted, its rear end is attached to the case body by engaging the rail member pivotally and directly mounted on the case body. 7. The compact case of claim 6, wherein the repulsive member comprises a first magnet provided on a bottom side of the rail member and a second magnet provided on the rail plate at a position corresponding to and opposing the first magnet, wherein the two magnets have identical polarities so that one exerts a repulsive force on the other. 8. The compact case of claim 6, wherein the repulsive member is normally in a state of compression. 9. The compact case of claim 6, wherein when the cover moves to the open position, the rear end pivots within an activity area proximate the repulsive member.
