Description

  The present invention relates to an ointment coloring tool.

  Conventionally, an ointment for stiff shoulders / muscular pain or an anti-itch ointment is applied to the back which is difficult to reach by hand.

  However, in order to apply the ointment by hand, it was necessary to apply it by an unreasonable posture or with the help of another person.

  The problem to be solved is that the ointment cannot be applied on the back, which is difficult to reach, in an easy posture.

  In order to achieve the above object, an ointment coloring tool according to the present invention includes a handle member and a rotating body, and further, the rotating body has a smooth ointment surface on one surface and a plurality of scrapes on the other surface. A hand part of the egg consisting of a protrusion for use, and the rotating body is attached to the tip of the handle member so that the surface of the ointment and the hand part of the egg can be freely switched.

  Further, the ointment surface is formed on an ointment body made of rubber or soft plastic. Moreover, the ointment body is made detachable. The handle member is slidably attached to the two elastically deformable wires extending from the grip portion, the two elastically deformable wires extending from the grip portion, and the two elastically deformable members. A slide block body for enlarging / reducing the gap between the two wire rods, and when the interval between the two elastically deformable wire rods is reduced by sliding the slide block body, A small protruding piece for restricting and fixing the rotation is formed on the rotating body.

  According to the ointment coloring tool of the present invention, it is possible to apply the ointment by itself in an easy posture on the back which is difficult to reach.

  1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention. This ointment coloring tool is for applying an ointment (not shown) by itself in an easy posture to the hard-to-reach parts such as the back and hips, and can also be used as a hand of the egg. That is, a rotating body 5 having an ointment surface 3 and a egg hand 4 is pivotally attached to the tip 2 of the handle member 1 so as to be able to rotate and switch between the ointment surface 3 and the egg hand 4. 1 to 3 show a state in which an ointment is applied--that is, the ointment surface 3 is used. FIG. 6 shows a state where the hand portion 4 of the egg is used.

  The rotating body 5 has a concave ointment coloring surface 3 having a concave shape with a loose central portion on one surface 6. Since the central portion of the ointment surface 3 is formed in a concave shape, the ointment surface 3 can be substantially fitted to the shape of the body, and the ointment can be easily applied. The rotating body 5 has a hand portion 4 of a egg composed of a plurality of scraping projections 8 on the other surface 7.

  Reference numeral 9 denotes a plastic, metal, or wooden rotating body that is pivotally attached to the handle member 1 through a hole 22. An ointment body 10 made of rubber or soft plastic and having the ointment surface 3 is fixed to the rotating body 9. A rotating hand main body 11 made of rubber or soft plastic and having the scraping projection 8 is fixed to the rotating body 9.

  The handle member 1 includes a resin-made, wooden or metal grip portion 12, two elastically deformable metal wires 13, 13 extended from the grip portion 12, two elastically deformable wire materials 13, A slide block body 14 is provided which is slidably attached to 13 and expands or contracts the distance between the two elastically deformable wires 13 and 13. A distal end portion 13 a of the wire 13 is bent inward at a substantially right angle and inserted into the hole 22 of the rotating body 9. As shown in FIG. 4, the slide block body 14 has a flat single-character hole 15, and the left and right inner surfaces of the hole 15 are in sliding contact with the wires 13 and 13.

  The rotating body 9 of the rotating body 5 rotates relative to the two elastically deformable wires 13 and 13 when the slide block 14 is slid to reduce the distance between the two elastically deformable wires 13 and 13. It has a small projecting piece 16 that restricts rotation of the body 5 and substantially fixes it. The small protrusion 16 is disposed at a position where the above-mentioned wire 13 abuts or substantially abuts the lower surface 16a (see FIG. 8) when the ointment surface 3 or the hand portion 4 of the egg is used.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the ointment body 10 is configured to be detachable from the rotary body 9. That is, the ointment body 10 has a recess 17 for fitting the rotating body 9 and an annular groove 19 on the inner wall 18 of the recess 17. The rotating body 9 has an annular ridge 20 that fits in the annular groove 19. The ointment body 10 is elastically deformed and attached to and detached from the rotating body 9. Reference numeral 21 denotes a peeling tongue piece for facilitating removal of the ointment body 10 from the rotary body 9.

Next, the usage method of the ointment coloring tool of this invention is demonstrated.
In order to switch from the state of use of the ointment surface 3 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 to the state of use of the hand portion 4 of the egg shown in FIG. Slide toward the side to enlarge the distance between the two wires 13 and 13.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the locking of the wire 13 and the small projecting piece 16 is released, and the rotating body 5 is rotated halfway (approximately 180 ° rotation) about the tip end portion 13a of the wire 13. Thereafter, the slide block body 14 is slid toward the rotating body 5 to reduce the interval between the two wire rods 13 and 13. At this time, as shown in FIG. 8, the wire 13 is brought into contact with or substantially brought into contact with the lower surface 16 a of the small projecting piece 16 of the rotating body 9. A force in the direction of arrow A (inward) is applied to the wire 13.

  In order to switch from the use state of the hand portion 4 of the egg shown in FIG. 6 to the use state of the ointment surface 3 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, an operation in the reverse procedure of the above switching operation may be performed.

  In the present invention, the design can be changed, and for example, the rotating body 9 may have a hand portion 4 of a plurality of scraping protrusions 8.

  As described above, the present invention includes the handle member 1 and the rotator 5, and the rotator 5 has the smooth ointment surface 3 on one surface 6 and a plurality of scraping protrusions 8 on the other surface 7. An ointment coloring tool having a rotating hand 5 attached to a tip 2 of a handle member 1 and an ointment coloring surface 3 and an egg handing part 4 so as to be capable of rotation switching. Because it has the body 10 and the ointment body 10 has the ointment surface 3, it is possible to apply the ointment on the hard-to-reach part of the body in an easy posture, and the itchy hand of the body Can be scratched. Moreover, the ointment surface 3 can also peel off the poultice of the portion that is difficult to reach by the hand of the body.

Since the ointment body 10 is made of rubber or soft plastic, the touch is good.
Since the ointment body 10 is removable, the ointment body 10 can be removed and washed, which is hygienic.

  A handle member 1 is slidably attached to a grip portion 12, two elastically deformable wires 13 and 13 extended from the grip portion 12, and two elastically deformable wires 13 and 13, and two handle members 1 are attached. The slide block body 14 for enlarging / reducing the interval between the elastically deformable wire rods 13 and 13 is provided, and the slide block body 14 is slid to reduce the interval between the two elastically deformable wire rods 13 and 13. Since the rotating body 5 has a small protrusion 16 that restricts and substantially fixes the rotation of the rotating body 5 with respect to the wires 13, 13, the ability of the wire 13 to hold the rotating body 5 is increased, and the ointment is applied. It is possible to prevent the rotating body 5 from rattling when it is applied or when the itchy part of the body is scratched.
