DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a non-blister pack type adhesive container capable of directly hanging and displaying the container itself.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A blister pack is formed by forming a concave portion from a resin sheet such as hard polyvinyl chloride or high-impact polystyrene by vacuum forming or pressure forming in accordance with the shape of an object to be packaged. This is a packing method in which objects are inserted and packaged together with the mount. At the time of display at the store, it is hung by inserting the hanging holes provided on the backing paper through a rack or hanger.

[0003] The blister pack system is applied to a very wide variety of articles, and even for containers filled with an adhesive, most of consumer products except for large products adopt this system. . Rather, if the blister pack is not possible, the seller will not handle it easily,
Some people say that commercialization itself becomes difficult.

[0004] As related to the present invention, there have been proposed a number of adhesive containers in which a spatula is provided for convenience of application to an object. For example, a device provided with a spatula at the tip of the discharge port (see FIG.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-54944 and Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 63-664.
No. 6176), an elongated opening having a narrowed outer surface formed into a spatula (Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 62-182237), and a spatula hanging down along the outer surface of the container body (Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 3-35059). No.).

[0005]

The blister pack is
As mentioned above, it is widely spread, and in recent years it has become indispensable for product display at stores,
(B) A transparent sheet is required, and the sheet must be formed according to the size of the article.
The need for backing paper and the additional printing on the backing paper even though the label is printed on the container; (c) the material costs for the blister pack;
Molding cost and printing cost account for a significant proportion of the product cost. (D) Sheets and mounts formed in recesses must eventually be discarded, and sheets are mainly made of polyvinyl chloride or polystyrene. Therefore, there are various problems such as that it may cause pollution at the time of incineration.

[0006] Despite these disadvantages, the blister pack system is widely adopted because it has advantages over the disadvantages in the form of sales of the products. However, the cost of displaying products with blister packs must ultimately be borne by the consumer, and from the viewpoint of resource saving and environmental conservation, it is desirable that the accompanying packaging be as small as possible. However, it is time to consider some sort of blister pack.

Under such circumstances, the present invention has the same or better display effect as the blister pack while omitting the blister pack itself and following the trends of resource saving and environmental conservation. It is an object of the present invention to provide a non-blister pack type adhesive container in which the functionality at the time of using the adhesive is also taken into consideration.
