DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in a housing for accommodating a breast milk pad for a mother during lactation to interpose between underwear such as a bra and a breast.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, such a breast milk pad is used, for example, as shown in FIG. In the figure, a substantially circular dome-shaped breast milk pad 1, 1 is inserted inside each of the cups 3, 3 of the brassiere 2 one by one.

As shown in FIG. 19 (a) which is a front view and FIG. 19 (b) which is a side view, such breast milk pads 1 and 1 are formed in a circular dome shape. It is configured by laminating a plurality of flexible materials. That is,
The breast milk pad 1 is provided with a surface material on the inner surface which is in direct contact with the skin of the user, followed by an absorbent material, so that at least on the outside the liquid does not seep out of the absorbent material and contaminate the clothes. And a waterproof material is laminated thereon.

At a predetermined position on the front side of the waterproof material, an adhesive portion 4 to which an adhesive or the like is applied is provided.
As shown in FIG. 18, the adhesive portion 4 is attached to the inside of the cup 3 of the brassiere 2 and fixed. This allows
The underwear and the breast milk pad 1 are used so as not to shift.

[0005]

By the way, when such a breast milk pad 1 is sold, it is folded in half as shown by an arrow in FIG. 20 to form a semicircle or a half moon as shown in FIG. Individually packaged in the individual container 5. In this case, the individual packaging body 5 is a bag formed of, for example, a polyethylene film or the like, and one surface thereof (the upper surface in FIG. 22) is provided in the width direction near the center and cut along the cutting line 5c. Using the cut or the cut as a key, one of the upper surfaces, for example, 5
The side a is cut off, and the folded breast milk pad 1 housed inside is taken out. The removed breast milk pad 1 is used in such a manner that the release paper 4 described in FIG. 18 is peeled off by hand and attached to the inside of the underwear.

[0008] Further, the breast milk pads 1 housed one by one in the individual housing body 5 are, for example, as shown in FIG. It is preferable to be provided in a sales channel while being housed in a waterproof package 6.

However, in the above-mentioned individual packaging body 5, when the breast milk pad 1 accommodated therein is folded in two, as shown in FIG. Height h2. Also, as shown in FIGS. 21 to 23,
Since the circular breast milk pad 1 is folded and housed in two, in the region 7 shown in FIG. 23, the stored matter does not fill the space inside the individual housing 5. Due to such factors, when the individual packaging bodies 5 are stacked as shown in FIG. 23, the whole is inclined so that the rear side in the figure becomes lower. Therefore, since it is difficult to accommodate it in the rectangular flexible package 6 for accommodating it, it has been accommodated in a paper box having mold holding properties. However, such a paper box has a problem in that when it is distributed, for example, if the corners of the box are crushed or the like, the commercial value is impaired. In addition, such a box is difficult to deform, so it is bulky and inconvenient to transport.

Further, in the individual package 5, the breast milk pad 1
In the case of using two at the same time as shown in FIG. 18 and using two at the same time, the user has to break the two individual housings 5 separately and take out the breast milk pad 1, which is a daily routine. The product was inconvenient for usability.

The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and requires only one or two simple operations.
An object of the present invention is to provide a breast milk pad container in which two breast milk pads can be taken out of the container, and when each container is put together as a package for distribution, it is easy to form a flexible and waterproof package.

This is achieved by the container. According to the configuration of the first aspect, since the container is configured by folding the belt-shaped member, the container can be easily manufactured by supplying a continuous long sheet-shaped material in the manufacturing process. . And 2
The folded breast milk pads will be opposite to each other and overlap. As a result, the shape of the container folded in two has the same thickness on the left and right, and when forming a package by stacking a large number of these containers, a package such as a rectangular or rectangular parallelepiped balanced with a flexible material is used. It can be easily formed. Moreover, since two breast milk pads are formed in one container, it is necessary to break only one
Multiple breast milk pads can be removed at the same time.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a breast milk pad for forming a main body by laminating an absorbent for absorbing a liquid and a waterproof material disposed outside the absorbent. A container formed by folding a band-shaped member, wherein two breast milk pads folded in two are arranged in the same direction with respect to a central region of the container long in a band shape in one direction. And wrapping the two breast pads in such a manner that at least one of the end regions continuously provided in the length direction with respect to the central region of the container is folded over the two breast pads. This is achieved by a breast milk pad container. According to the configuration of claim 2,
A breast milk pad folded in two is arranged in the central region of the long container in a strip shape so as to be aligned. For this reason, when at least one of both ends of the container is folded and placed on one of the breast milk pads, the container is folded into two between the two breast pads, and the breast pads are overlapped. Therefore, each breast milk pad will be opposite to each other and overlap. As a result, the shape of the container folded in two has the same thickness on the left and right, and when forming a package by stacking a large number of these containers, a package such as a rectangular or rectangular parallelepiped balanced with a flexible material is used. It can be easily formed. In addition, since two breast milk pads are formed in one container, two breast milk pads can be simultaneously taken out only by breaking one container.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the second aspect, one of the end regions connected to the central region is folded back to overlap one of the breast pads, and the other breast pad is placed thereon. It is characterized by being wrapped so as to overlap.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, after two breast milk pads are arranged in series in the central region of the long container in the shape of a strip, the breast is wound with one end of the container inside. Thus, packaging by the container can be performed.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the second aspect, each of the end regions is formed such that both end regions continuous with each other in the length direction from the central region are folded inward so as to face each other. Each side edge of the central region is fixed to each other.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, each end region of the container is fixed to the side edge of the central region of the container at a corresponding position, so that individual regions corresponding to each breast milk pad are provided. A bag-like portion can be formed, and the breast milk pads can be taken out one by one by breaking each bag-like region.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the second to fourth aspects, the adhesive for forming the adhesive portion of each breast milk pad is applied to the surface of the central region in advance. The breast milk pad is housed therein.

According to the configuration of claim 5, the adhesive portion is exposed on the surface of the breast milk pad only by removing the breast milk pad from the container, so that it is not necessary to peel off the release paper as in the conventional case.

Further, according to the present invention, a breast milk pad for forming a main body by laminating an absorbent for absorbing a liquid and a waterproof material disposed outside the absorbent is accommodated. In order to do so, it is a container constituted by folding a band-shaped member, wherein the breast milk pad folded in two in the container, each bent portion outward in a different direction from each other, side by side This is achieved by a breast milk pad container housed to be placed. According to the configuration of claim 6, the folded breast milk pads are arranged in the central region of the container in different directions with the bent portions on the outside. For this reason, the shape of the container has the same thickness on the left and right, and when many packages are stacked to form a package, a well-balanced rectangular or rectangular parallelepiped package can be easily formed with a flexible material. . Moreover, since two breast milk pads are formed in one container, two breast milk pads can be taken out at the same time simply by breaking one container.

According to the seventh aspect of the present invention, there is provided a breast milk pad for forming a main body by laminating an absorbent for absorbing a liquid and a waterproof material disposed outside the absorbent. In this case, each of the breast milk is formed by folding a band-shaped member, and each of the breast milk pads is folded in two in a central region of the container long in one direction. The bent portion of the pad is arranged outside, and furthermore, both end regions connected in the length direction to the central region of the container are folded on the two breast milk pads. And then
According to the configuration of claim 7, which is achieved by a breast milk pad container enclosing two breast milk pads, the breast milk pad folded in the central region of the long strip-shaped container each has the bent part outside. And are arranged in different directions from each other. For this reason, in a state where both ends of the container are folded inward and placed on each breast milk pad, the shape of the container has the same thickness on the left and right, and a number of these containers are stacked to form a package. In this case, a well-balanced rectangular or rectangular parallelepiped package can be easily formed with a flexible material. Moreover, since two breast milk pads are formed in one container, it is necessary to break only one
Multiple breast milk pads can be removed at the same time.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiment described below is a preferred specific example of the present invention, and thus various technically preferable limitations are added. However, the scope of the present invention particularly limits the present invention in the following description. The embodiment is not limited to these embodiments unless otherwise stated.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view showing the appearance of a breast milk pad according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view showing the internal structure of the breast milk pad of FIG. . First, the structure of the breast milk pad according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to these drawings.

As shown in FIG. 2, the breast milk pad 10 is located in front of the breast 14 when worn by a user. In this state, the outside of the breast milk pad 10 (the left side in FIG. 2)
, A waterproof material 11 is disposed, and a surface material 13 is disposed on the inner surface side (the right side in FIG. 2). The absorber 12 is disposed between the surface material 13 and the waterproof material 11, and the surface material 13, the waterproof material 11, and the absorbent material 12, for example, are each formed in a substantially circular shape and overlapped, In the stacked state, the main body 18 of the breast milk pad 10 is configured.

The waterproof material 11 does not allow liquid to pass through, but it is preferable to select a material which can transmit water vapor to prevent stuffiness and has some flexibility.
The waterproof material 11 is formed of a material that is more flexible than a conventionally used waterproof material that can be thermally deformed. Also,
The material constituting the waterproof material 11 may have heat resistance and waterproofness, and may not be a material that can be thermally deformed as in the related art. As such a material, for example, polyethylene-laminated paper, polyethylene-laminated nonwoven fabric, melt-blown nonwoven fabric, and the like are used.

As shown in FIG. 1, an adhesive portion 4 is provided on the surface of the waterproof material 11. This bonding portion 4
It may be formed by applying an adhesive applied to the container as described later, or
In the case of not having such a structure, an adhesive is applied to the surface of the waterproof material 11 and a release paper is pasted thereon, thereby peeling it off, and removing the cup 3 of the brassiere 2 as described in FIG. The adhesive portion 4 can be stuck and fixed inside the inside.

The surface material 13 is a member that comes into direct contact with the skin of the user, and is made of a material that transmits moisture such as mother's milk well and has a good texture. In other words, since the surface material 13 directly touches the skin of the user, a material suitable for the user is selected in consideration of a good touch without damaging the skin more than necessary. Preferably, a dry mesh sheet (a mesh sheet formed of polyethylene or the like) or a nonwoven fabric is used.

As the absorber 12, a material excellent in liquid absorbency is selected, and a fibrous body, a laminate, or a sheet of pulp is used. Further, the absorbent body 12 is made of a pulp material or the like which is mixed with a polymer which is a material having a function of retaining the liquid as it is, or semi-solidified or solidified. As such a material, for example, a water-absorbing polymer is suitable, such as a polyacrylate copolymer, a starch-acrylonitrile graft copolymer hydrolyzate, a starch-acrylic acid graft copolymer, and polyvinyl. Examples thereof include alcohol-acrylate copolymers and modified carboxymethylcellulose. And the absorber 12 is wrapped in the tissue 15 as shown in FIG. This prevents the granular polymer and the like from leaking. The breast milk pad 10 having the above-described configuration is folded in half like a case described with reference to FIG. 20 to be formed into a semicircular or semilunar shape, and is accommodated in the container illustrated in FIG.

FIG. 3 shows an accommodating body 20 for accommodating two breast milk pads 10 for unit packaging. In the figure, the container is a belt-like member that is long in one direction, and is supplied as a belt-like polyethylene film in a manufacturing process described later. In the film as the container 20 for unit packaging, a central region 21 having a width and length sufficient to accommodate two breast milk pads 10 in series, and a length from each end of the central region 21 Two end regions 22 and 2 connected in the direction
3 are formed.

As shown in FIG. 4, two breast milk pads 10, 10 are placed in the central region 21 of the container 20 so as to be arranged in series in the longitudinal direction. In this state, each breast milk pad 10, 10 is folded in two as described above, and is oriented in the same direction as shown in FIG. For example, the directions are aligned such that the R-shaped peripheral edge of each of the folded breast milk pads 10, 10 is located on the upper side in the figure.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, each of the end regions 22 and 23 of the container 20 is folded inward so that the end surfaces thereof face each other.
Here, as shown by a virtual straight line L in FIG.
When dividing the central area 21 to be placed at an equal distance,
That is, the area is further divided between the breast pads 10 placed in the central area 21. And each end area 2
2, 23 respectively, the side edges 22a, 22b, 23a,
Each side edge of the central region 21 corresponding to the position corresponding to 24b is defined as 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d. In the manufacturing process described later, these side edges are formed such that the side edge 22a of the end region 22 is
a and the side edge 22b of the end region 22 are located on the side edge 21b of the central region 21 and the side edge 2 of the end region 23.
3a is a side edge 21c of the central region 21 located thereunder.
And the side edge 23b of the end region 23 is fixed to the side edge 21e of the central region 21 located therebelow. still,
This fixing step can actually be performed after the step of FIG. 6 as described later.

As shown in FIG. 5, which shows a cross section in a direction orthogonal to the virtual straight line L in FIG. 4, the bag-like portions 23 and 24 correspond to the end regions 22 and 23, respectively. Are formed respectively. Each of the bag-shaped portions 22 and 23 accommodates one breast milk pad 10, 10 respectively.
Preferably, for example, if a fixing tape 26 is applied as a fixing means between the end regions 22 and 23, each end surface of each end region 22 and 23 is almost closed, which is sanitary.

Further, the bag-shaped portions 22 and 23 are folded along the imaginary line L in FIG. 4 so as to overlap each other as shown by arrows in FIGS. As a result, the entire container 20 becomes a two-fold unit package as shown in FIG. In this state, the two-folded breast milk pads 10 and 10 are stacked in the container 20 in the opposite directions, and therefore, the thickness T on the left side in the drawing of the container 20 is shown.
1 (height) and the thickness T2 (height) on the right side are substantially equal.

FIG. 7 shows a modification of the above-described embodiment in a different packaging mode by the container 20. In FIG. 7, only the end region 22 of the container 20 is the breast pad 1
0, 10 and in this state, the container 2
0 center area and other end areas 23
It is packaged so as to wrap around 0,10. Even in such a packaging form, in the container 20,
The two-folded breast milk pads 10 and 10 are stacked with their directions reversed, so that the thickness of the left side and the right side in the drawing of the container 20 is substantially equal.

FIGS. 8 and 9 are views for explaining the details of the bonding portion between the container and the breast milk pad in the above embodiment. In FIG. 8, an adhesive portion 4 is located on the lower surface (the surface of the waterproof material) of the breast milk pad 10, and a release paper 42 is temporarily fixed to the adhesive portion 4. Then, the release paper 42 is
Is fixed to an adhesive portion 43 formed on the inner surface of the. That is, in this case, the bonding portion 43 and the bonding portion 43 are formed so that the bonding force is higher than that of the bonding portion 4 by, for example, using a different adhesive.

For this reason, the user can take out the breast milk pad 10 only by breaking the container 20. This breast milk pad 1
When 0 is taken out, the temporary fixing with the release paper 42 is released. This is because the bonding portion 43 between the container 40 and the release paper 42
Is stronger than the adhesive force of the adhesive portion 4 between the breast milk pad 10 and the release paper 42. Therefore, in the operation of taking out the breast milk pad 10 from the container 40, at the same time, the release paper is removed from the breast milk pad 40. 42 is peeled off, and the bonding portion 4 is exposed.

FIG. 9 is a view for explaining another example of the details of the bonding portion between the container and the breast milk pad in the above embodiment. In the figure, a peeling portion 45 is formed on the inner surface of the container 20. This peeling part 45
Forms a surface that is more easily peeled than the inner surface of the container 20 where the peeling portion 45 is not formed. The peeling portion 45 is formed of, for example, a polyethylene film coated with silicon. On the other hand, breast milk pad 10
The bonding portion 4 is located on the lower surface (the surface of the waterproofing material) of the device, and the peeling portion 45 is temporarily fixed to the bonding portion 4.

Therefore, the user can take out the breast milk pad 10 only by breaking the container 20. This breast milk pad 2
The adhesive part 4 is exposed when 0 is taken out. That is,
Since the bonding portion 4 is only temporarily fixed to the peeling portion 45 of the container 20 which is particularly easily peeled, in the operation of taking out the breast milk pad 10 from the container 20, the bonding portion 4 of the breast milk pad 10 The temporary fixing with the peeling part 45 is easily released, and the bonding part 4 is exposed.

FIG. 10 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the portions denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the above-described first embodiment have a common configuration.
A duplicate description will be omitted, and the following description will focus on the differences. The container 50 has exactly the same configuration as the container 20 described above, but differs in the storage mode of the breast milk pads 10 and 10 stored therein.

In the figure, two breast milk pads 10, 10 are arranged in the central region 21 of the container 50 in a state of being folded in two. In this case, the breast milk pad 10,
10 is arranged so that the folded portions 10a, 10a are folded outward and face different directions from each other. On each breast milk pad 10, 10, an end region 22, 23 are stacked.

Further, a different point from the first embodiment is that the container 50 is not folded in two. Therefore, in the state of FIG.
3 and the height T4 on the right side are the same. For this reason, in this state, even if a large number of containers 50 are stacked, the left and right thicknesses of the stacked state are the same, which is suitable for packaging with a flexible package material 37 as described later.

FIGS. 11 to 17 simply show a packaging process of the breast milk pad container 20 provided in the latter half of the manufacturing process of the breast milk pad 10 as described above. In FIG. 11, a container material 31 made of a film or the like that is to become a container elongated in the transport direction A is sent onto a transport unit such as a conveyor (not shown) of the production line. The container material 31 has a belt shape that extends long in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the container 20 in FIG. 3 extends.

As shown in FIG. 11, two sets of breast milk pads 1 are arranged so as to be arranged in the width direction of the container material 31.
0 and 10 are arranged in the same direction (described above). further,
Along the transport direction A, the other sets of breast milk pads 10, 10 are successively sent at equal intervals.
Here, on the surface of the container material 31, each breast milk pad 10
Adhesives 32, 33, such as hot melt, are applied to the positions corresponding to the surface of the waterproof material 11, and each breast milk pad 10 is placed thereon. Thereby, the bonding part 4 is formed on the surface of the waterproof material 11 of each breast milk pad 10 placed thereon.

Next, as shown in FIG. 12, both side edges 34 and 35 of the container material 31 are folded back inside. The side edges 34 and 35 correspond to the end regions 22 and 23 of the container 20 in the unit package, respectively.

Further, as shown in FIG. 13, the container material 31 is folded at a position corresponding to the virtual straight line L in FIG. 4, so that the breast milk pads 10, 10 are oriented in the direction shown in FIG. Will overlap each other. Then, as shown in FIG. 14, in the next step, the container 2 forming each unit package is formed.
For each 0, the intermediate portion 36 is fixed by, for example, heat sealing. This step is a fixing step of forming the respective bag-like portions 24 and 25 described with reference to FIGS. In addition, each container 20 is cut at the fixing portion 36 to complete the breast milk pad container 20 as a unit package product.

Next, as shown in FIG. 15, a large number of breast milk pad containers 20 are stacked. In this case, as described with reference to FIG. 6, the entire breast milk pad container 20 has the same thickness and thus can be stably stacked. Then, a plurality of stacked breast milk pad containers 20 are further arranged in parallel in a plurality of rows as shown in FIG. 16 and compressed by applying a load from the surroundings as shown by arrows, as shown in FIG. Wrap with 37.

In this case, since a large number of breast milk pad containers 20 stacked vertically and horizontally become substantially accurate rectangles or rectangular parallelepipeds, they can be packaged with a flexible and waterproof packaging material 37 such as polyethylene. It is extremely easy to handle in each process of distribution as compared with a package made of a paper box, which is difficult to handle.

Further, the breast milk pad container 20 of the present embodiment
Has the following various advantages in addition to the package performance described above. That is, as described above, the two breast milk pads 10, 10 can be made into one unit package, and therefore, as described with reference to FIG.
When the breast milk pads 10, 10 are to be attached to the respective cups 3, 3, a convenient unit package corresponding to the unit to be used can be obtained. When only one breast milk pad 10 is to be used, one end region 22 or 23 of the breast milk pad container 20 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 is picked up and one of the bag-like portions 24 and 25 is removed. It can be broken and taken out, and thereafter, if the breast milk pad container 20 is folded in two as shown in FIG. 6, it is convenient to carry.

This is the same in the case of the modification shown in FIG. 7, and in the breast milk pad container 30 shown in FIG.
When the breast milk pad container 30 is opened while holding one end of the breast milk pad with fingers, the lower breast milk pad 10 in the figure can be easily taken out.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, when the adhesive 32 or 33 is applied to the inner surface of the container 20 in advance, either one of the bag-like portions 24 and 25 is broken to remove the breast milk pad. By simply taking out 10, the bonding portion 4 can be exposed on the surface (the surface of the waterproof material 11).
That is, when the user holds the breast milk pad container 20 in the state of FIG. 6, the user opens the state from FIG. 6 to the state of FIG. As shown in FIG. 18, only one of the torn portions 24 and 25 is blown, and the stored breast milk pad 10 is taken out.
It can be attached to underwear by using the bonding portion 4. Therefore, it is possible to easily use the breast milk pad which is individually packaged as in the related art, since the troublesome procedure of tearing the packaging and removing the release paper one by one is omitted. Moreover, since no release paper remains as garbage,
Even when used on the road, there is no inconvenience of processing unnecessary release paper, and it is extremely functional and easy to use.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.
For example, the main body 18 of the breast milk pad 10 does not need to be circular, and may of course have another shape. Further, the housing material in the main body 18 may be other than the above-described members. Further, as the waterproof material 11, the surface material 13, and the absorber 12, various materials other than the materials described in the above-described embodiment can be selected. Further, each component of each embodiment described above may be arbitrarily selected and combined.

[0050]

As described above, according to the present invention, one or two breast milk pads can be taken out of the container by a simple operation, and each container is put together in a package as a package. In addition, it is possible to provide a breast milk pad container that can be easily formed into a flexible and waterproof package.
