Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[0001] The present invention relates to a packaged wet tissue paper. More specifically, the present invention relates to a large-sized wet tissue paper folding structure suitable for nursing the elderly or sick at home or hospital.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Wet-type tissue paper (hereinafter referred to as wet tissue or wet tissue paper) is a liquid (for example, water, alcohol, a disinfectant, a preservative) for a base cloth such as paper or nonwoven fabric. Liquid mixed with an agent, a fragrance, etc.). The wet tissue is stored in a hermetically sealed film-like sealing bag or a packaging container such as a plastic container in a state of being stacked (for example, about 50 to 100 sheets) to form a product.

[0003] Wet tissue is convenient for soiling of limbs, nursing infants, around the mouth after meals, cleaning up defecation, and the like, and is preferably used in ordinary households. It is also often used for nursing the elderly and sick at home and hospitals. The wet tissue is very convenient because it can easily and quickly wipe off dirt on the body and the like, and can reliably remove dirt. For this reason, it is used as a stationary type in homes, hospitals, and the like, and is also commercially available in various forms for portable use. Further, it is used as a cleaning paper for kitchen and around water by impregnating with detergent and the like.

[0004] As a folded structure of a packaged wet tissue, various shapes have conventionally been proposed. The folding structure used for the stationary type is a so-called V
A letter-shaped, C-shaped, Z-shaped or modified version thereof has been frequently used. In particular, when each leaf of the wet tissue is folded with an overlap, when one wet tissue is removed from the exit, a part of the next leaf is protruded and held for the next removal. That is, it is possible to provide a so-called pop-up property, and the convenience of being able to take it out in a spread state with one hand is preferred. For example, JP-A-7-213453 and JP-A-8-89439 disclose a modified Z-shaped superimposed structure,
In the publications of −51118, 70175 and 79074,
Various folding structures having such an overlap of a VZ-shaped, double Z-shaped, and C-shaped overlapping structures have been proposed. However, in these folded shapes, the folded width is reduced to only about half the width of the base cloth,
General size 20 for baby wipes and miscellaneous goods
It is suitable as a folding structure for wet tissue with a size of about 0 mm width x 150 mm length, but as a folding structure for adult wet tissues used for nursing elderly and sick people who need a larger size, packaging The size of the container becomes excessively large, which is not preferable in any of production, distribution, and use of products.

[0005] On the other hand, as a folding structure used for a portable wet tissue, a Z-shaped upper and lower free piece portion is folded back, and further folded in two.
So-called tissue folding is often used. In addition, as a modification of the above, a laminated structure is first folded in two, and then folded in a Z-shape perpendicular to this (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-70388). Examples of octaves and others (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 9-6601)
No. 5, Publication No. 3034469). However, in tissue folding,
The folding width is about 1/3 of the base cloth width.
In the structure disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 0388, it is about 1/2, which is suitable as a portable folding structure, but it is difficult to say that it is small enough to be directly applied to an adult. In addition, in the folding example of the registered utility model No. 3034469, when the fold is eight, the fold width can be reduced to 1/4 of the width of the base cloth, but the edge of the base cloth or the fold is a peripheral part of the fold structure of the wet tissue. And cannot be located in the opening of the outlet of the enclosing bag. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Hei 10-174663 proposes a small wet tissue package in which a sheet is folded in one direction and folded in three in a direction orthogonal to the folding direction to enable pop-up.

[0006]

In contrast, in recent years,
Wet tissue paper for adults, which is used favorably for nursing the elderly and sick at home and hospitals, is mainly an alternative to conventional cotton towels that have been wetted with water. While the general size for wipes and miscellaneous goods is about 200 mm width x 150 mm length, for example, about 300 mm x 200 mm to 6 mm
It is preferable to use a large size of about 00 mm × 300 mm and a relatively thick base cloth. In addition, as for the method of use, it is often used one by one rather than several at a time, and it is not always necessary to provide a pop-up property, but rather, it is required to be as easy to spread as possible. In other words, on an adult wet tissue paper, wrap a large-format base fabric as compactly as possible,
In addition, there is a demand for a specific foldable structure or packaging form, such as easy removal and easy spreading when used, and an object of the present invention is to provide a wrapped wet tissue paper that satisfies these requirements.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a packaging wet tissue paper in which wet tissue paper is folded and stored in a packaging container, wherein the folded structure of the laminated and stored wet tissue paper is (1) rectangular. The short side edges are folded in a C-shape or a Z-shape in a direction perpendicular to the long side, and then (2) the double-folded edges are cut in a direction parallel to the folding. The present invention provides a packaging wet tissue paper characterized in that it is folded in a letter shape or a Z shape, and (3) it is folded in a direction perpendicular to the above-mentioned folding.

Further, the present invention is a packaging wet tissue paper in which wet tissue paper is folded and stored in a packaging container, wherein the folded structure of the wet tissue paper stacked and stored is (1) in the longitudinal direction of a rectangle. Fold in two, and then (2) fold both edges of the short side of the double rectangle into a C-shape or Z-shape in the direction perpendicular to the long side, and (3) fold this quadrilateral. The present invention provides a packaging wet tissue paper having a structure in which both end edges thus formed are folded in a C-shape or a Z-shape in a direction parallel to the folding.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a packaged wet tissue paper of the present invention. The packaging wet tissue paper 2 of the present invention is obtained by folding a wet tissue paper 21 cut into a rectangular shape having a predetermined area into a specific shape, laminating the wet tissue paper 21, and storing it in a packaging container 22. Also,
The wet tissue 21 is obtained by impregnating a liquid (for example, a liquid in which alcohol, a disinfectant, a preservative, a perfume, or the like is mixed with water) according to a purpose of use in a base cloth such as paper or nonwoven fabric.

The packaging container 2 is made of a material and a structure generally used as a packaging container for wet tissues, such as an airtight film-shaped sealing bag, a plastic container, a paper container, or a combination thereof. Thus, a packaging container 22 having an outlet 24 is used. Normally, in the case of a sealed bag, the outlet 24 provided on the upper surface of the sealed bag is sealed by a seal member 26 coated with an adhesive 25 on the back surface, and in the case of a plastic container, formed on the upper surface of the plastic container. The opened outlet is covered with an opening / closing lid. As a method of storing the folded and laminated wet tissue 21 in these packaging containers 22, for example, the laminated wet tissue is sealed in a liquid-impermeable sealing bag, and the wet tissue formed on the upper surface of the sealing bag is sealed. The method for continuously manufacturing cosmetic-enclosed bags described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 64-3722, in which wet tissues can be taken out one by one from the outlet, can be applied as it is.

Hereinafter, the wet tissue paper 21
Will be described. FIG. 2 shows a specific example of the wet tissue folding structure according to the present invention.
It is sectional explanatory drawing. In the figure, the packaging container 22 is folded.
Only three of the wet tissues 21 stored in are shown. FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line II-II of FIG. 1 for a wet tissue having the same folding structure.
In addition, the II-II section is deviated from the center line of the packaging container 2 in order to display the number of folded pieces corresponding to FIG. In the figure, the folded wet tissue is stored in the same direction with respect to the fold, but left and right alternately,
Alternatively, storing in another method can be appropriately selected.

Next, the folding structure of the wet tissue paper 21 cut into a rectangle having a predetermined area will be specifically described. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of a specific example of the wet tissue folding structure of the present invention, and illustrates a folding step. In the first step, the rectangular wet tissue 21 is folded in a C-shape in the first step, in which both short side edge portions 11a and 11b are perpendicular to the long side 13 of the rectangle according to the two mountain fold lines Y. As a corresponding second step,
(A) Inverted C-shape, (b) Z-shape, and (c) C-shape can be selected (the inverted Z-shape appears the same as the Z-shape). First, taking (a) as an example, in the second step,
Both edge portions 12a and 12b formed by double folding are folded in an inverted C-shape in a direction parallel to the folding (in a direction perpendicular to the long side 13 of the original rectangle) according to the two valley fold lines X. (Note that the inverted C-shape here means the direction opposite to the plane of the first C-shape and the rectangle.) Further, in the third step, this is perpendicular to the above-mentioned folding (original direction). In the direction parallel to the long side of the rectangle). At this time, it is preferable that the short side edge 11a and / or 11b of the original rectangle be folded in two in the direction facing the outside of the folded wet tissue 21. That is, when the folded wet tissue 21 is stored in the packaging container (enclosure bag) 22, the short side edge 11 a and / or 11 b of the wet tissue 21 is positioned in the opening of the outlet 24. Therefore, there is an advantage that the wet tissue 21 can be picked out easily, the wet tissue 21 can be easily pulled out, and the wet tissue 21 can be taken out in a sufficiently spread state. When (b) and (c) are selected in the second step, the valley fold line X instead of the two valley fold lines is used.
And the mountain fold line Y or two mountain fold lines Y.

FIG. 5 is an explanatory view of another embodiment of the folding structure of the wet tissue of the present invention, and illustrates the folding step. Rectangular wet tissue 21
In the first step, both short side edge portions 11a and 11b are folded in a Z-shape in a direction perpendicular to the long side 13 of the rectangle according to the mountain fold line Y and the valley fold line X. As the corresponding second step, (a) a C-shape, (b) an inverted Z-shape, and (c) a Z-shape can be selected (the inverted C-shape appears the same as the C-shape). ). First, description will be made with reference to (a) as an example. In the second step, the two side edge portions 12 formed by double folding are formed.
a and 12b are folded in a C-shape in the direction parallel to the folding (in the direction perpendicular to the long side 13 of the original rectangle) in accordance with the two valley fold lines X. Further, in a third step, this is folded in a direction perpendicular to the above-mentioned folding (original direction parallel to the long side of the rectangle). At this time, the short side edge 11 of the original rectangle
As described above, it is preferable that a and / or 11b be folded in two in the direction facing the outside of the folded wet tissue 21. When (b) and (c) are selected in the second step, the valley fold line X and the valley fold line Y or the valley fold line Y and the valley fold line X in place of the two valley fold lines are used. Will be folded according to.

In the examples shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, in each case, the sheet is folded in the width direction first, and finally folded in the direction perpendicular to the width direction. Next, it can be sequentially folded in the width direction according to the folding structure of FIG. 4 or FIG. Also at this time, when the final fold is formed and stored in the packaging bag, the short side edge 11a and / or 11b of the original rectangle faces the upper side of the folded wet tissue 21. It is preferable in terms of removability.

FIG. 6 is an explanatory view showing an example of a conventional folding structure, which is an example of so-called tissue folding which is frequently used for portable tissues and wet tissues.
50 to 150-200mm width x 200mm length base cloth
Although it is folded to about 70 mm width x 100 mm length, it is about 1/3 in the width direction and is not small enough. FIG. 7 is an explanatory view showing another example of the conventional folding structure. However, the width and the length are about half the size of the base fabric, and are not sufficiently small. FIG. 8 is an explanatory view showing still another example of the conventional folding structure. First, the folded structure is folded in half and then folded twice to form eight folds. When stored in a bag, neither the edge portion nor the fold of the base fabric is located in the opening of the outlet, so that there is a problem that the removability is poor.

[0016]

The packaging wet tissue paper of the present invention can be compactly stored in a packaging container by folding a large-size wet tissue into a specific folding structure and laminating it, and at the time of use, can be placed at an outlet. Since the edge portion of the wet tissue is located, the wet tissue can be easily picked and taken out. Further, when the wet tissue passes through the outlet, the fold is easily unfolded and easily spread to be suitable for use. In addition, since a known method can be applied to the manufacturing method, it is advantageous in cost.
