Abstract
In a vanity case, such as a compact case, comprising a receptacle member and a hinged cover member arranged to be latched with each other by snap action, a recess is formed in one of the members in which a slider element having an enlarged outer end is provided in such a manner that when the slider element is pushed inwardly, the enlarged outer end exerts such a force as to separate the one member from the other member by releasing the latching therebetween. The slider element is urged forwardly by a spring member provided in the recess.
