Description

  The present invention generally uses a tube container-type paste-type or powder-like toothpaste processed into a tablet-shaped solid toothpaste, and this solid toothpaste is loaded into a storage container and used. The present invention relates to a solid toothpaste storage container that takes into account the reuse of resources that can be completely used up and refilled by rotating the section, sliding the tablet-shaped solid toothpaste up and down, and taking out one by one.

Conventionally, a paste-type toothpaste in a laminate tube type container has been the mainstream.
There were some powdered toothpastes, but in the mainstream tube-type toothpaste, it was used to hold the tube container, squeeze it out and apply toothpaste to the toothbrush, but the toothpaste residue in the tube container When the amount was small, it was difficult to squeeze out, and it still remained several times but could not be used up to the end.

This has the following drawbacks.
When the amount of tube-type toothpaste in the container becomes small, it is very difficult to squeeze out, and although it is still remaining several times, it remains without being squeezed out to the end. Both the tube and tube containers were valuable resources and were wasted.
The present invention has been made to solve these problems.

A spiral inner member is inserted and joined to the outside of the inner cylindrical member, and the cylindrical inner cylindrical member formed with the slit groove and the cylindrical helical member formed with the helical groove are engaged with each other in the inner cylindrical member.
An engagement pin that allows the plate member to move up and down in the inner cylinder member is formed, and it is configured with a basic structure that engages the slit groove of the joined inner cylinder member and the spiral groove of the helical member and moves up and down. However, the tablet-shaped solid toothpaste that can be stored in the storage container can be loaded horizontally.
It is used by using a function that is formed on the pedestal and is provided with a dial portion for vertically moving the pedestal in the inner cylinder member below the cylindrical outer cylinder member that covers the outer periphery of the spiral member.
This invention is a solid toothpaste storage container which consists of the above structures.

By using the present invention, the solid toothpaste is loaded into the storage container, and the dial part provided below the storage container is rotated, so that the solid toothpaste in the container moves up and down and is stored in the lid on the top of the container. Using tweezers, taking into consideration the hygiene, bring it to the mouth and brush your teeth.
Furthermore, in the conventional tube container-type toothpaste, the tube type is difficult to squeeze out until it is used up to the end, and the container and contents remain wasted several times while remaining in the container. It is completely used up by solidifying one toothpaste for each toothpaste, so if you refill the storage container with solid toothpaste for refilling, you can consider the reuse of resources and garbage problems, as well as at home and at work. It is a solid toothpaste storage container that is compact and convenient to carry, with only the amount required for school, travel, etc.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
(A) The cylindrical inner cylinder member (10) in which the slit groove (11) is formed and the cylindrical spiral member (6) in which the spiral groove (7) is formed are arranged outside the inner cylinder member (10). The helical pin (6) is inserted and joined to the base member (8), and the engaging pin (9) is formed so that the base (8) engaged in the inner cylindrical member (10) can move up and down in the inner cylindrical member (10). This is a basic configuration in which the slit groove (11) of the joined inner cylinder member (10) and the helical groove (7) of the helical member (6) are engaged and moved up and down.
The tablet-shaped solid toothpaste (1) to be loaded on the solid toothpaste storage container (15) is formed on the pedestal (8) that can be loaded horizontally, and the pedestal (8) in the inner cylinder member (10) is moved up and down. The dial portion (5) is provided below the cylindrical outer cylinder member (4) that covers the outer periphery of the helical member (6).
(B) An insertion hole (3) is provided on the side surface of the lid portion (2) shown in FIG. 2, and tweezers (14) are inserted into the insertion hole (3) on the side surface of the lid portion (2) as shown in FIG. ) Is stored.
(C) As the material for the solid toothpaste storage container (15), a plastic material or synthetic resin plate that has been subjected to antibacterial processing is punched into a shape and processed into a cylindrical shape. Is done.
The present invention is configured as described above. When this is used, the solid toothpaste (1) in which the tablet-shaped solid toothpaste (1) shown in FIG. 1 is stacked is loaded in the solid toothpaste container (15), The base member (8) engaged in the inner cylinder member (10) shown in FIG. 2 is formed in a horizontal direction in which the base (8) communicates with the slit groove (11). 2 is engaged, and the lower dial portion (5) of the cylindrical outer cylinder member (4) shown in FIG. 2 is pinched, and the dial portion (5) as shown in the lower portion of FIG. ), The engagement groove (11) of the inner cylinder member (10) and the helical groove (7) of the helical member (6) are engaged and moved upward with the engaging pin (9) as a fulcrum.
Then, the pedestal (8) that has moved up moves up to the position of the upper locking groove (12) formed in the horizontal direction communicating with the slit groove (11) of the inner cylinder member (10) shown in FIG. .
Further, during the downward movement, the slit groove (11) of the inner cylinder member (10) and the spiral groove (7) of the spiral member (6) are engaged and moved downward with the engaging pin (9) as a fulcrum, and the slit groove ( 11) A mechanism for stopping is formed by a lower locking groove (13) formed in the horizontal direction communicating with 11), and the base (8) in the inner cylinder member (10) moves up and down by repeatedly operating the mechanism. To do.
Hereinafter, when the user uses the solid toothpaste storage container (15) of the solid toothpaste (1) of the present invention, the insertion hole (3) on the side surface of the lid (2) shown in FIG. The tweezers (14) shown is housed, and using the tweezers as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the tablet-shaped solid toothpaste (1) is picked up from the solid toothpaste storage container (15) shown in FIG. 4 (c). In consideration of hygiene, bring it into the mouth, chew it lightly with a small amount of water, apply it to the entire mouth, and brush with a toothbrush.
Since the solid toothpaste (1) is put into the mouth, the material for the solid toothpaste storage container (15) and tweezers (14) is made of a safe and sanitary member subjected to antibacterial processing.
