Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a disposable pillowcase, and can be suitably used particularly when a large number of pillowcases are used, such as in nursing homes and nursing homes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a pillow cover, a fabric made of cotton or a blend of cotton and polyester is exclusively used. When the pillow cover is soiled by use, it is appropriately washed and used again.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state where a conventional pillow cover is mounted on a pillow (conventional example). The pillow cover 31 is in the form of a bag made of a plain cotton fabric, and the pillow 30 is inserted through the opening of the bag, and the cloth portion 31a near the pillow cover opening is folded so as to be arranged at the bottom of the bag. Is completed.

[0004] In addition, there is a conventional pillow cover in which a zipper is provided at an opening side of a bag-shaped pillow cover (conventional example), and the pillow is taken out of the pillow cover by opening the fastener.

[0005] As another conventional pillow cover, there is a pillow cover made of a tubular fabric (conventional example), and a pillow is put in the cylinder and attached.

[0006]

In facilities such as nursing homes and nursing homes that use a large amount of pillowcases, the pillowcases are small but require a large amount of washing. The burden of caregivers is increasing due to the labor of drying and drying.

[0007] The operation of attaching a pillow cover to a pillow is not always simple in the case of a conventional pillow cover.
There is a problem that it takes time to replace a large number of pillowcases.

In order to reduce the burden on the caregiver,
An object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive disposable pillow cover that requires less time and effort for replacement.

[0009]

The disposable pillow cover according to the present invention comprises an adhesive layer formed in a streak shape along an arbitrary edge of a nonwoven fabric piece, and a release tape is provided on the adhesive layer. The gist is that there is.

The operation of mounting the disposable pillow cover of the present invention on the pillow is simple, since the release tape is peeled off and the pillow cover is placed on or wound around the pillow. Even if you have to put on, it does not take much effort. Since the pillow cover is attached by the adhesive layer, it is possible to prevent the pillow cover from shifting during use of the pillow.

Although a pillowcase in which protrusions of an adhesive resin are provided on the nonwoven fabric piece in a dot-like manner is also conceivable, in this case, the production cost is high. In this regard, in the case where the adhesive layer is formed in a streak shape as in the present invention, the production cost is relatively low.

In addition, since the main body of the disposable pillow cover is made of non-woven fabric, it can be manufactured at low cost. Therefore, even if the user uses it as a disposable, it does not cost much.

Further, in the present invention, it is preferable that the adhesive layer is constituted by a double-sided tape.
The double-sided tape has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on both sides of the base tape.

In the present invention, the main material of the nonwoven fabric piece is preferably rayon fiber.

Rayon has good hygroscopicity, so that it can well absorb perspiration from the head, and rayon has a good feel, so that it has a good feeling of use. Further, when discarded, rayon has a low burning temperature, so that it hardly damages the incinerator and there is almost no risk of generating harmful gas (for example, dioxin) by burning. In addition, since it has good biodegradability, it can be buried in soil and disposed.

In the present invention, it is preferable that an antibacterial agent and / or a deodorant are added to the nonwoven fabric piece. The antimicrobial agent can suppress the growth of microorganisms and prevent the pillow cover from becoming dirty. Further, the above-mentioned deodorant can reduce malodorous components such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a view showing a disposable pillowcase according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein (a) is a front view and (b) is a back view.

The disposable pillow cover 10 is a non-woven piece 12 having a rectangular main body. The non-woven piece 12 is obtained by blending 70% by mass of rayon fiber with 10% by mass of a composite fiber of polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene. In this case, the antibacterial / deodorant was added at 20% by mass.

An adhesive tape (adhesive layer) 11 is provided on the back surface of the pillow cover 10 along the edges of both long sides thereof, and a release tape 13 is provided on the adhesive tape 11.
Are superimposed. The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 11 has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on both sides of a base tape. One of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers is adhered to the nonwoven fabric piece 12, and the other is covered with the release tape 13. An example of the material of the adhesive layer is an acrylic copolymer resin. This acrylic copolymer resin is preferable because it hardly causes harm to the human body.

FIG. 2 shows the disposable pillow cover 10 with the pillow 30.
It is a perspective view showing the state attached to.

When mounting the pillow cover 10, the release tape 13 is peeled off to expose the adhesive tape 11, and the pillow 30
Paste in. At this time, the pillow cover 10 is preferably wound around the pillow 30, and it takes less time and effort to mount the pillow cover than the conventional pillow cover. It is desirable that the pillow cover 10 has a size suitable for the size of the pillow, and it is preferable to prepare a large pillow cover for a large pillow.

When the pillow 30 is in use, the adhesive tape 11 serves as a slip stopper, and the pillow cover 10 hardly shifts from the pillow 30.

In the operation of removing the pillow cover 10, if the pillow cover 10 is peeled off from the pillow 30, the pillow cover 10 can be easily removed without much trouble.

In addition, since the pillow cover 10 is provided with an antibacterial / deodorant, germs do not propagate much and the generation of odor can be reduced.

As a method for manufacturing the pillow cover 10, a printing machine is used to attach the adhesive tape 11 and the release tape 13 while flowing a long non-woven fabric (for example, a running speed of 50 m / m).
Min).

As described above, the disposable pillow cover according to the present invention has been specifically described with reference to the drawings showing examples, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to the illustrated examples.
It is also possible to carry out the present invention with appropriate modifications within a range that can be adapted to the above-mentioned purpose, and all of them are included in the technical scope of the present invention.

For example, in the above example, the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 11 having the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers on both sides of the base tape was used as the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, but may be a single layer of the pressure-sensitive adhesive alone. Further, an adhesive layer may be formed along the short side edge of the nonwoven fabric piece 12.

It is needless to say that the nonwoven fabric piece may not be provided with an antibacterial / deodorant. In addition, printing may be performed on the nonwoven fabric piece to improve the design.

[0029]

The disposable pillow cover according to the present invention is inexpensive, and the operation of attaching and detaching the pillow cover to and from the pillow is simple. Therefore, a caregiver who replaces a large number of pillow covers can reduce the burden of care.
