Description

  The present invention stores a wet material such as paper, cloth, etc. in a wet state, and stores the wet tissue in the wet material storage container capable of taking out the wet material as necessary and the wet material storage container. The present invention relates to a wet tissue package.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a container that stores a wet material such as wet tissue such as wet tissue or cloth and that can be pulled out and used as necessary has been used. A typical example of such a container is a cylindrical container in which a wet material in the form of being wound is stored in an upright state, and the wet material is drawn out from a drawer opening provided on the top surface of the container. , It was used by cutting it off at an appropriate position. A cap is attached to the drawer port to prevent the inside of the container from drying. In addition, a notch is provided from the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the opening at the top of the cylindrical container, the wetting material is drawn from the notch, and a pivotable lid is provided at the periphery of the opening at the top of the container. There is also known a container having a structure in which a take-out port is formed at a position corresponding to the portion and the lid is rotated to close or open the cut portion (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-9735).

  On the other hand, there is also known a container in which sheet-shaped wet tissues are stored in a stacked state. A container for storing single-sided wet tissue is a box-shaped container (horizontal container) whose maximum size on the bottom is considerably smaller than the height, and in which the wet tissue is stored horizontally and the top of the container is placed. In this configuration, the wet tissue is drawn out from the outlet formed in the center of the surface. And in order to close the taking-out port, the lid | cover which can be rotated by a hinge is provided (for example, refer Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 9-58725).

However, the use of the cylindrical container described above has a problem that only a continuous wet material in a wound state can be used, and it cannot be used for storing a single wet tissue. In addition, it is necessary to rotate the cap and lid to open and close the outlet, and there is a problem that it cannot be operated with one touch and is difficult to handle. On the other hand, in the case of using a single-wafer wet tissue, a spring is connected to a lid attached by a hinge and always biased in the opening direction, and the locking piece that restrains the lid in the closed position is released. Although the lid can be opened with one touch and excellent in handleability, the wet tissue is stored horizontally, so that there is a problem that the occupied area is larger than that of the cylindrical container and takes up a place.

  Since the container for wetting material storage of the present invention is configured to assemble a vertical container with a front body and a rear body, the occupation area can be reduced, and the take-out port for taking out the internal wetting material is a vertical type. By providing it in the area near the top of the side of the container or in the area from the area near the top of the side to the top, it is possible to draw the wetting material diagonally upward from the top of the vertical container. Thus, it becomes very easy to take out the wetting material. Here, if the take-out port is inclined so as to face obliquely upward, the wetting material can be taken out upward, laterally, or taken obliquely upward, depending on the preference of the person to take out. The degree of freedom in taking out becomes greater and the taking out becomes easier. Furthermore, the lid for closing the extraction port is configured to open and close by turning around the upper end side of the extraction port as the rotation center axis, so that the lid can be opened largely diagonally upward to open the extraction port greatly. Yes, even if the tip of the wetting material falls into the container, it can be easily taken out by inserting a finger from the outlet. The lid having a structure that is swung open can be easily opened with a single touch, and a container with good operability can be provided. In addition, in order to close the take-out port with a lid with good airtightness or to open the lid with a single touch, the structure of the front body that forms the take-out port needs to be somewhat complicated. Since the container of the mold is divided vertically, it is possible to mold even a complicated structure. Thus, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a vertical container having a small occupation area and a good handle for storing a wet material. The container for storing a wetting material of the present invention can be used for storing any wetting material, but can also be suitably used for storing a single wet tissue.

  Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 (a) and 1 (b) are schematic perspective views showing a wetting material storage container according to an embodiment of the present invention with the lid closed and the lid open, and FIG. 2 for storing the wetting material. FIG. 3 (a), (b), (c) is a schematic front view, a schematic side view, and a schematic view of the container for accommodating a wetting material, together with a wet tissue bag disassembled and put in the container. FIG. 4 is a schematic sectional view of the wetting material storage container. The container for storing a wetting material generally indicated by reference numeral 1 is a container for storing a wetting material such as wet paper such as wet tissue or a cloth, which can be taken out as necessary. A split front body 2 and rear body 3 are provided. Here, the vertical container means a container that can be used in an upright state and has a height higher than the maximum dimension in a horizontal plane. As described above, the vertical container is formed by the front body 2 and the rear body 3, so that an advantage of reducing the occupied area can be obtained.

  The front body 2 and the rear body 3 are made by resin molding, for example, injection molding, and have fitting portions 5 and 6 that can be fitted to each other with good airtightness at respective peripheral portions. As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 5A, the fitting portions 5 and 6 are provided with a groove 5a having a narrowed tip opening, and the other fitting portion 6 is provided in the groove 5a. The protrusion 6a which can be fitted and has a thick part at the front-end | tip is provided, and it can connect with airtight by fitting the protrusion 6a in the groove | channel 5a. Here, the fitting portions 5 and 6 are formed over the entire periphery of the front body 2 and the rear body 3, and the front body 2 and the rear body 3 are hermetically sealed by fitting the fitting portions 5 and 6 together. Can be connected to each other and assembled into a vertical container. The undercuts formed in the fitting portions 5 and 6 may be the same over the entire circumference of the front body 2 and the rear body 3, but each corner portion is connected when connecting substantially rectangular peripheral edges. By tightly fitting the two, reliable connection between them and good airtightness are ensured. For this reason, it is preferable to make undercut of the fitting parts 5 and 6 formed in the corner part larger than other areas. When the fitting portions 5 and 6 are fitted to each other, a guide 7 is formed at an appropriate position on the front body 2 in order to easily perform the fitting operation. Further, the fitting portion 6 of the rear body 3 is formed with a bulge portion 6c so that the outer side surfaces 5b and 6b are substantially flush with the fitting portion 5 when fitted. With this configuration, the appearance when the front body 2 and the rear body 3 are fitted is very good.

  The connection between both side edges of the front body 2 and the rear body 3 may be performed only by fitting the fitting parts 5 and 6, but in the case of long side edges exceeding, for example, 15 cm, simply fitting. When only the joint portions 5 and 6 are fitted, a gap may be formed between the fitting portions 5 and 6 when an impact such as dropping is applied, resulting in poor airtightness or disengagement. Therefore, in order to prevent such fitting portions 5 and 6 from being disengaged, in this embodiment, the intermediate region in the height direction of the side edge of the front body 2 is shown in FIG. As described above, the hook 9 for locking to the rear body 3 is continuously provided via the hinge portion 9a. On the other hand, a recess 10 is formed in the area of the rear body 3 that is locked by the front body 9 as shown in FIG. 6, and one end of the recess 10 (the protrusion that is locked to the hook 9 at the end on the front body 2 side). This configuration ensures the connection between the front body 2 and the rear body 3 by locking the hook 9 to the convex portion 11 and can be fitted even when an impact or the like is applied when dropped. It is possible to prevent the fitting of the portions 5 and 6 from being disengaged or the formation of a gap to break the airtightness, as shown in Fig. 5B, in the region of the rear body 3 corresponding to the hook 9, the hook 6 is connected to the outer surface of the rear body 3. The bulge portion 6c is cut out so as to make it as close as possible to the best, and the hook 9 and the recess 10 are not limited to the case where one set is provided at the center of the side edges of the front body 2 and the rear body 3. In response, it may be provided a plurality of sets appropriate intervals.

  1 to 4, the front body 2 has a side surface located on the front side of the vertical container and close to the top surface in a state where the front body 2 and the rear body 3 are assembled in a vertical container. A take-out port 15 is formed from a region to a part of the top surface region, and the take-out port 15 is configured to be opened and closed by a lid 16 that can be turned around a rotation center axis set in the top surface region. The lid 16 may be formed in an integral structure with the front body 2, that is, in a structure that is connected to the front body 2 via a hinge portion. However, in this embodiment, as a separate part from the front body 2, resin molding, for example, Made by injection molding. Hereinafter, the region of the front body 2 where the outlet 15 is formed and the structure of the lid 16 will be described in more detail.

  7 is a schematic sectional view showing the front body 2 with the lid 16 attached to the front body 2 opened, FIG. 8 is a schematic front view showing the front body 2 with the lid removed, and FIG. FIG. 10A is a schematic side view, a schematic back view, a schematic cross-sectional view, and a schematic end view of the lid 16. The front body 2 is a position where the front body 2 and the rear body 3 form a vertical container in a region where the take-out port 15 is formed, and the front body 2 is retracted inward from the outermost surface 18 on the top surface and the outermost surface 19 on the side surface. The wall portion 20 is inclined so as to face obliquely upward, and the take-out port 15 is formed in the wall portion 20. Here, “inclined” is not limited to a state where a straight line is inclined, but includes a state where a curved line is inclined as shown in the drawing. Since the outlet 15 is provided in the inclined wall portion 20 in this way, the outlet 15 with a large area can be formed and the outlet 15 faces obliquely upward, so that it is accommodated in a vertical container. The wetting material can be taken out upward, laterally, or obliquely upward, and the degree of freedom of taking out is increased according to the preference of the person taking it out, and it is easy to pull out the wetting material from an upright container Benefits are gained. Further, since the large-area take-out port 15 is formed, it is easy to put a finger into the container from obliquely above, and even if the wetting material enters the container, it can be easily pinched and pulled out.

  The lid 16 for closing the take-out port 15 is provided so as to be pivotable about a rotation center axis OO set in the top surface area and inside the outermost surface 18. More specifically, a support pin 23 is formed in the vicinity of the upper end of the vertical wall 22 extending from both ends of the inclined wall portion 20 of the front body 2 toward the outermost surface 19 so as to face each other. By fitting the bearing holes 25 formed at both ends of the lid 16 into the lid 23, the lid 16 is held so as to be rotatable with respect to the front body 2 about the rotation center axis OO. Here, since the support pin 23 is formed on the front body 2 side and the bearing hole 25 is formed on the lid 16 side, there is no need to form a bearing hole on the front body 2 side, It is not necessary to form a through hole that may cause air leakage. It is also conceivable to form a hole with a closed bottom instead of a through-hole as a bearing hole on the front body 2 side, but such a hole requires a boss for closing the bottom of the hole and is difficult to mold. (The die of the boss cannot be removed). In the present embodiment, these problems are avoided by forming the bearing hole 25 on the lid 16 side.

  The lid 16 is substantially flush with the outermost surface 18 of the container top surface and the outermost surface 19 of the container side surface located around the lid 16 when the outlet 15 is closed with the lid 16. Are provided with L-shaped outer surfaces 28 and 29. With this configuration, as shown in FIG. 1 (a), when the lid 16 is closed, the outer surfaces 28 and 29 of the lid are substantially flush with the outer surfaces 18 and 19 of the front body 2 adjacent thereto, which is extremely good. Give an appearance. Further, as can be seen from FIG. 4, since a space is formed between the take-out port 15 and the cover 16 in a state in which the lid 16 is closed, the wet tissue to be next taken out to the take-out port 15 as will be described later. When the front end portion is hooked, the front end portion is positioned in the space between the take-out port 15 and the lid 16 so that the wet tissue can be easily taken out without being crushed by the lid 16. .

  In this type of container for storing a wetting material, it is necessary to close the outlet 15 as tightly as possible. Therefore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 in particular, the outlet side rib 30 is formed so as to surround the entire circumference of the outlet 15, and the receiving surface 31 is formed outside thereof. Yes. The receiving surface 31 is preferably provided over the entire circumference of the take-out port 15, but may be omitted in some areas if there is a place restriction or the like. For example, in this embodiment, the receiving surface 31 is formed on the side and the lower side of the extraction port side rib 30 formed in an annular shape, but the receiving surface is not formed on the upper side. On the other hand, the lid 16 is formed with a lid-side rib 33 fitted to the outer surface so as to surround the entire circumference of the outlet opening-side rib 30. The lid-side rib 33 is arranged so that when the lid 16 is turned around the rotation center axis O and placed on the take-out side rib 30, the lid-side rib 33 fits well with the take-out side rib 30. The shape is defined. Further, the height of the lid-side rib 33 is determined so that the tip 33a of the lid-side rib 33 is substantially in contact with the receiving surface 31 on the front body 2 side when the lid 16 is closed. That is, the curvature of the tip of the lid-side rib 33 is determined to match the curvature of the receiving surface 31. With this configuration, even when the receiving surface 31 is formed on the front body 2 with an integrated structure (made of the same material), there is an advantage that good airtightness can be secured. Note that the fitting between the outlet-side rib 30 and the lid-side rib 33 is not limited to fitting in a strict sense, and even if there is a slight gap between them, appropriate airtightness can be maintained. The term “fitting” used for the outlet-side rib 30 and the lid-side rib 33 in the text includes a case where there is a slight gap. In order to further improve the airtightness even if there is some cost increase, the receiving surface 31 may be formed of a soft material, or an appropriate packing material may be disposed on the receiving surface 31. In order to form the receiving surface 31 with a material softer than the material forming the front body 2, the front body 2 may be manufactured by different material molding or insert molding.

  A coil spring 35 is attached to the lid 16 so that the lid 16 can be opened with one touch from the state where the lid 16 is held in the closed position. FIG. 11 shows a spring accommodating portion 36 for holding the coil spring 35 on the lid 16. The spring housing portion 36 is inserted by pushing the coil spring 35 perpendicularly to the central axis of the coil spring 35 and the holding space 36a for holding the coil spring 35 so as to be positioned on the rotation central axis OO. Although it is possible, the insertion port 36b made smaller than the outer diameter of the coil spring and the portion 35a extending in the tangential direction of one end of the coil spring 35 are restrained from rotating so as to prevent falling off. A locking hole 36c and a groove 36d for allowing the turning of a portion 35b extending in the tangential direction of the other end of the coil spring 35 are provided. With this configuration, if the coil spring 35 is set in the holding space 36a of the spring storage portion 36, the coil spring 35 will not fall off, and the coil spring 35 is set in the spring storage portion 36 in the state where the coil spring 35 is set. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 7, by attaching the lid 16 to the front body 2, the other end portion 35 b of the coil spring 35 is supported by the support surface 38 of the front body 2, and the coil spring 35 is always the lid 16. An urging force in the opening direction (clockwise in FIG. 7) can be applied.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 4, 7, 8, etc., the front body 2 and the lid 16 have a locking means 40 that holds the lid 16 biased in the opening direction by the coil spring 35 in a closed state. Is provided. As shown in FIGS. 12 (a) and 12 (b) in an enlarged manner, the locking means 40 includes a locking convex portion 42 formed at the front end portion of the lid 16 and the front body 2 in a closed state. A push button portion 43 is integrally formed in a raised shape in a region facing the tip portion of the lid 2. The push button portion 43 includes a push surface 43a for pushing with a finger, and side walls 43b and 43c formed on the entire circumference of the push surface so as to support the push surface 43a. The side wall 43b disposed on the side facing the front end portion of the lid 16 is formed in a flat shape, and has a convex portion 43d to be engaged with the engaging convex portion 42 of the lid 16 on the surface thereof. When the push button 43 is pushed as shown by the arrow F in the push surface 43 a, the flat side wall 43 b is easily inclined in the direction away from the latching projection 42 of the lid 16, and the latching projection 42. And the convex portion 43d are made to be unlatched.

  The structure of the push button portion 43 having such characteristics is not limited to the illustrated embodiment, but in the present embodiment, the push surface 43a is provided at the root portion of the planar side wall 43b. A thin-walled portion 43e is formed so that the side wall 43b is easily inclined as a whole when pressed, and a thin-walled U-shaped portion 43f is formed in the base region of the other side wall 43c to facilitate deformation. Yes. With this configuration, as shown in FIG. 12 (a), when the push surface 43a of the push button portion 43 is pushed, the U-shaped portion 43f is easily deformed. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 12 (b), the push surface The lower end region of 43a is pushed in, so that the side wall 43b forming the convex portion 43d is inclined in a direction away from the locking convex portion 42 of the lid 16, and the lid 16 is released. Thus, no matter where the push surface 43a of the push button portion 43 is pressed, the restraint of the lid 16 can be released, and the lid 16 can be reliably opened with one touch. Such a structure of the push button portion 43 can be realized by molding the push button portion 43 into an integral structure with the front body 2 (with the same resin), and thus can reduce the cost. The means for releasing the restraint of the lid 16 is not limited to the push button portion formed integrally with the front body 2, and a configuration using a push button of a separate part may be used.

  In FIG. 2, reference numeral 50 denotes an example of a wetting material suitable for being stored in the wetting material storage container 1. Here, a plurality of single-wafer type wet tissues 51 are respectively connected to each wet tissue. A wet tissue bag 50 is shown in which a part of 51 is stacked in a form that is folded into a part of the next wet tissue, and is housed in a bag 52. The wet tissue bag 50 is provided with an opening seal 53 in the upper end region of the front surface thereof, and by removing the opening seal 53, a wet tissue take-out port can be formed at this position, and the wet tissue can be formed from the take-out port. 51 can be pulled out one after another. The wet tissue package 50 can be formed by storing the wet tissue bag 50 so that each wet tissue 51 is in the vertical direction and the portion where the opening seal 53 is arranged faces the take-out port 15 of the front body 2.

  The take-out port 15 of the front body 2 can satisfactorily take out the wet tissue 51 of the wet tissue bag 50 having such a configuration and can hold a part of the wet tissue 51 in a state of being caught by the lower end region of the take-out port 15. Of structure. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, the lower end edges 15a and 15b of the take-out port 15 are V-shaped, and one from the side to the lower side of the V-shaped lower end region. Two lateral tongue pieces 55 and 56 are provided in a shape extending so as to enter, and a first passage 58 that is obliquely narrow is formed between the lateral tongue pieces 55 and 56 so as to extend in the same direction as the lower edge 15a. A second passage 59 having a slightly larger size is formed in the tip region of the lower lateral tongue piece 55 so as to be connected to the first passage 58, and further vertically extended so as to extend upward below the lower lateral tongue piece 55. A tongue piece 60 is provided, a narrow third passage 61 connected to the second passage 59 is provided between the horizontal tongue piece 55 and the vertical tongue piece 60, and a third passage 61 connected to the third passage 61 beside the vertical tongue piece 60.

  Here, the narrow first passage 58 and the third passage 61 are arranged so as to intersect at a small angle, so that when the wet tissue 51 (see FIG. 2) is pulled out from the take-out port 15, the wet tissue is extracted. 51 is guided by the lower edges 15a and 15b and enters the first passage 58, the second passage 59, the third passage 61, the fourth passage 62, etc., and when passing through these, the narrow first passage 58 and the A moderate resistance is provided by the third passage 61. For this reason, when the next wet tissue 51 is pulled out by the wet tissue 51 pulled out first, the next wet tissue 51 is caught at the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 and held in that position. . Thus, when pulling out the single wet tissue 51, only one wet tissue is pulled out, the subsequent wet tissue is caught in the lower end region of the takeout port 15, and the tip is held in a state protruding from the takeout port 15, We will prepare for the next drawer. Further, when one wet tissue is pulled out, a plurality of subsequent wet tissues are likely to be pulled out together, and these also have a lateral tongue piece 55 that forms the first passage 58 and the third passage 61. , 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60, and a plurality of wet tissues are not pulled out together. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the front end portion of the subsequent wet tissue 51 that is pulled by the rear end portion of the first (first) wet tissue 51 and accumulated in the takeout port 15 is closed. And is held without being crushed in the space between the outlet 15. For this reason, at the time of next use, the front-end | tip part of the wet tissue can be easily pinched and pulled out.

  13 and 14, the ease of deformation of the lateral tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 forming the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 and the gap dimension between the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 are as follows. Affects the pulling characteristics of wet tissue. That is, when the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 do not deform so much and the distance between the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 is narrow, the resistance when drawing out the wet tissue is preferably increased. Otherwise, the subsequent wet tissue cannot enter the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 and falls into the container. On the other hand, when the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 are easily deformed or when the distance between the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 is too wide, a plurality of wet tissues are pulled out together. . Therefore, the ease of deformation of the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 and the gap dimension between the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 may be determined so as not to cause these problems. If the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 are appropriately deformed easily, the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 and the vertical tongue piece 60 are deformed when the wet tissue is pulled out, and the first passage 58 and the second tongue piece 60 are formed. The advantage is that the gap of the three passages 61 is widened and the influence of the gap size of the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 can be reduced. Although the gap dimension of the 1st channel | path 58 and the 3rd channel | path 61 should just be set suitably according to the wet tissue of use object, about 1-3 mm can be illustrated as a standard.

  As a result of various tests conducted by the present inventors, it has been found that when the horizontal tongue pieces 55 and 56 are easily deformed, it is preferable to improve the wet tissue drawing characteristics by deforming the base tongue portion so that it is inclined as a whole. did. Therefore, in this embodiment, curved easily deformable portions 55a and 56a are formed at the base portions of the lateral tongue pieces 55 and 56, and reinforcing ribs are provided in the region on the tip side of the easily deformable portions 55a and 56a. 55b and 56b are provided.

  Next, a method of using the wet material storage container 1 having the above-described configuration will be described. The wetting material storage container 1 is supplied to the market as a wet tissue package that stores the wet tissue bag 50 shown in FIG. The person who has obtained this pushes the push surface 43a of the push button portion 43 on the front surface of the front body 2 to open the lid 16, puts a finger through the take-out port 15, and peels off the opening seal 53 on the front surface of the wet tissue bag 50. The wet tissue 51 is pulled out and hooked on the first passage 58 and the third passage 61 in the lower end region of the outlet 15. The opening of the wet tissue bag 50 may be performed by disassembling the front body 2 and the rear body 3 and taking out the wet tissue bag 50. After the first wet tissue 51 is pulled out and hooked on the lower end region of the extraction port 15, the lid 16 is closed. As a result, preparation for use is completed, and the wet material storage container 1 is placed and used in an appropriate position in a standing state.

  In order to take out the wet tissue, the push surface 43a of the push button portion 43 is simply pushed with a finger. As a result, the locking of the lid 16 is released, and the lid 16 is automatically opened by the biasing force of the coil spring 35. Therefore, it is only necessary to pinch and pull out the end of the wet tissue that is caught by the takeout port 15. When one wet tissue is taken out from the take-out port 15, the leading end of the subsequent wet tissue is pulled out together and held in a state of being caught by the first passage 58 or the third passage 61 in the lower end region of the take-out port 15. The Thereafter, the lid 16 can be closed by turning and pushing the lid 16 in the closing direction. As described above, by simply pushing the push surface 43a of the push button unit 43 with a finger, pulling out the wet tissue after the lid 16 is opened, and then turning and pushing the lid 16 in the closing direction, One wet tissue can be pulled out, and the wetting material storage container 1 can be returned to its original state. After the stored wet tissue is used, a new wet tissue bag 50 is obtained, the front body 2 and the rear body 3 are disassembled, the wet tissue bag 50 is replaced, and the above operation is repeated.

  The preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and can be changed as appropriate within the scope of the claims. For example, the wetting material stored in the wetting material storage container 1 is not limited to a single wet tissue, and may be a continuous wet tissue in a wound form or a cloth-like one. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the front body 2 is provided with the inclined wall portion 20 at a position retracted inward from the top and side surfaces of the vertical container formed by the front body 2 and the rear body 3. The outlet 15 is formed in the wall portion 20, but the wall portion retracted inward is omitted, and the outlet is provided so as to open directly on the top and side surfaces of the vertical container. In addition, a change such as a configuration in which an extraction port is provided so as to open only in the upper end region of the side surface may be added. In the case where the takeout port is provided so as to open only in the upper end region of the side surface of the vertical container, the side surface forming the takeout port on the side surface of the container is inclined so as to recede toward the upper end, and the takeout port Is preferably opened obliquely upward because the wetting material can be easily taken out.
