2. Description of the Related Art Various devices have been proposed which are capable of extracting a stored liquid in a state in which a flexible and amorphous container (bag) which is relatively inexpensive as compared with a three-dimensional container is stood up. For example, there is one disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2001-55281, and the extraction device described in the above publication has a winding roller that winds a bag inside an integrally molded resin casing (holder body). The bag body can be wound by rotating the manual knob provided on the outer wall of the housing with the winding roller. Then, by winding the bag body with the winding roller, the pressure inside the bag body is increased and the stored liquid (contents) and the like are extracted from the opening of the bag body. At this time, the take-up roller can be moved up and down in the housing along a long hole that axially locks the roller formed in the side wall of the housing in accordance with the rotation of the manual knob.

[0003]

However, the liquid extraction device for an irregular container described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-55281 can be applied to a dining table or the like, but when setting the bag body in the housing, the bag is first prepared. Since it is necessary to fix one end of the body to the take-up roller, the adjustment is troublesome, and the bag shape must be specially formed. Further, due to its structure, it is difficult to squeeze the filling material in the bag body to the end, and there are various problems that the remaining amount in the bag body is increased and it is uneconomical. The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and can thoroughly extract viscous materials and liquids filled in irregularly shaped containers such as bags and is easy to handle and can be appropriately provided on the table. An object is to provide an object extracting device.

[0004]

That is, a viscous material extraction device with a bag according to the present invention comprises a holder main body for accommodating and holding the bag inside, and a rotating body along the inner wall surface of the holder main body. A roller to be moved, a manual rotating means for this roller, a pair of racks fixedly provided so as to extend parallel to each other on both sides of the inner wall surface of the holder main body in the moving direction of the roller, and both ends of the roller. And a pair of pinions that are respectively engaged with the pair of racks, respectively, and a guide side wall portion that guides the rollers in the moving direction while preventing separation of the rollers from the inner wall surface of the holder, The inner top surface and the inner bottom surface of the holder are formed in an arc shape having substantially the same shape as the outer peripheral circle of the roller,
With the bag body filled with the viscous material housed and held in the holder body, the rollers are rotated by the rotating means to extend the pair of racks while guiding the rollers by the guide side wall portions. The bag body filled with the viscous material in the moving direction is sequentially compressed between the roller and the inner wall surface so that the bag body is filled between the top surface and the inner bottom surface of the holder body. It is characterized in that the viscous material held in the above is extracted almost completely from the opening formed at one end of the bag body through the extraction port of the holder.

At this time, the guide side wall has at least one side wall of the holder body formed with a long hole extending in the moving direction of the roller, and one end of each end of the roller is formed in the long hole. If the structure is such that the roller is rotatable and slidably inserted, the moving direction and pressing force of the roller can be reliably controlled. Further, if the structure is such that the rotation of the roller is performed by the manual rotation knob attached to the side wall of the holder body, the whole device can be made compact and more suitable for serving on a table or the like.

In the inner space of the holder main body 2, a roller 3 that is moved while rotating along the inner wall surface 5 of the holder main body 2 is housed. The roller 3 meshes with a pair of racks 4 and 4 fixedly installed on both sides of the wall surface 5 of the holder body 2 so as to extend in parallel with each other, and a pair of pinions 6 and 6 attached to both ends of the roller 3, respectively. It is structured to rotate and move at least. The rotational stress of the roller 3 is applied to the roller 3 by manually rotating the rotary knob 13 located outside the holder body 2 and connected to the roller 3 through the elongated hole 8.

In the present embodiment, the inner top surface 9 and the inner bottom surface 10 of the holder body 2 are formed in an arc shape, and the roller 3
The shape is substantially the same as the outer semicircle. At this time, the inner bottom surface 10 side is formed as a door 14 that can be opened and closed on one half side of the inner bottom surface 10 so as to sandwich the opening 12 of the bag body 11 accommodated in the holder body 2. With such a door structure, by rotating and moving the roller 3, the bag body 11 is narrowed down to the inner bottom surface 10 of the holder body 2 without a gap, so that the filling material in the bag body 11 is left. It can be extracted from the opening 12 without a problem.

In the present embodiment, the outer bottom surface of the inner bottom surface 10 is formed as an opening / closing door 14 which projects in a substantially beak shape in a side view, and the opening 12 thereof is formed by applying an internal pressure to the bag body 11. The door structure is such that one half of the inner bottom surface 10 of the holder main body 2 is opened as a result of the opening. As a result, the filler extracted from the opening 12 of the bag 11 is given a certain directionality and extracted, and after the extraction, the opening 12 of the bag 11 is opened and closed by a leaf spring (not shown) 14
It can be closed again by the return force to the original position.

Next, by manually rotating the rotary knob 13, the pinion 6 of the roller 3 is moved along the rack 4 meshing with the pinion 6, and the roller 3 is also moved. Laura 3
Is moved, the bag 11 is narrowed and pressure is applied to the inside.
At that time, the opening 12 opens against the closing force of the opening / closing door 14 forming the inner bottom surface 10 of the holder body 2. As a result, the filling material in the bag body 11 is extracted to the outside of the holder body 2. After the filling material is extracted, the pressure inside the bag 11 is restored and the opening / closing door 14 is closed again.

By repeating these steps, all the filling material in the bag 11 is scraped off and extracted until the roller 3 abuts the inner bottom surface 10 of the holder body 2. By this abutment, the outer circumference of the roller 3 and the arc of the bottom surface of the holder body 2 are formed in substantially the same shape, so that the filling in the bag body is completely extracted from the opening 12 of the bag body to the end.
In the bag-like viscous material extracting apparatus of the present embodiment, when leaving and storing the filling in the bag 11 as it is, the cap 15 is capped on the outer bottom surface of the holder main body 2, and the holder main body 2 It is possible to set it up so that it will be ready for subsequent extraction.

As described above, according to the present invention, the shape of the inner top surface and the inner bottom portion of the holder body is formed in a semi-arc shape having the same shape as the outer circumferential circle of the roller for pressing the bag body.
The filling (viscous substance) in the bag housed in the holder body can be completely extracted to the end. Therefore,
Since the viscous material in a bag, which is relatively inexpensive, can be used up without waste, the repeated use brings about an extremely economical effect.
