Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for supplying detergents, which is not such a current recycle form as to make reusable by processing the containers of detergents into a raw material of chip-form, but which can make a reuse of containers themselves, and thus which needs no disposal of the refill containers and can perform a truly environment-friedly recycle. <P>SOLUTION: The system comprises packing a detergent, at a supplier 1, into the containers (pack-finish containers a) having as much a capacity as common consumers can use, supplying the detergent packed in these containers to each of consumers 2 (consumer A, consumer B, consumer K) who makes the contract on the basis of predetermined contract contents, and collecting the containers (empty containers b), which the consumers 2 (consumer A, consumer B, consumer K) use up the detergent and make the containers empty, to the supplier 1 and simultaneously reuse these containers as the supply containers of a detergent. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a cleaning agent supply system for use in laundry, kitchens, etc. in general households, and more particularly to a cleaning agent supply system in consideration of the environment so as to reduce the generation of greenhouse gases.

  Today, many recycling proposals have been made due to the establishment of recycling (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Among them, recycling that is familiar to consumers can be classified and collected mainly by local governments.

  One of the items that are collected and collected is a resin container that contains a cleaning agent used for washing and dish washing performed almost every day in the home.

  In addition, the flow until this container is recycled is that the detergent manufacturer packs the container with the detergent, and transports the container filled with the detergent to the distributor through the distributor. It is sold to consumers such as housewives through a dealer.

  When a container such as a housewife purchases a container packed with a cleaning agent, consumes a necessary amount of the cleaning agent from the container for a predetermined period, consumes it, and when the container is empty, Are disposed of at the designated collection date and time as resource waste at the municipal waste collection site.

  Containers discarded at the collection site are collected by local governments, designated contractors, etc., and processed, for example, by crushing into raw materials in the form of chips that are purchased and reused by molding companies, etc. .

  However, even if the recovered container is processed into a chip-shaped raw material that can be reused together with a large amount of energy, it is currently incinerated without being reused because the raw material seems to be excessively supplied. In some cases, greenhouse gases were generated during incineration, and environmentally friendly recycling could return and worsen the environment.

  In addition, although refill cleaning agents are becoming widely available, containers for refill cleaning agents are disposed of without being reused, so they can be reused as resources. Is not a fundamental solution.

JP 2007-79662 A (pages 1 to 12, FIGS. 1 to 4)

  The present invention is not a current recycling form that allows the container of the cleaning agent to be reused by processing it into a chip-like raw material, but the container itself can be reused, and there is no need to dispose of the refill container. We have made it possible to provide a cleaning agent supply system that can perform truly environmentally friendly recycling.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the cleaning agent supply system according to the present invention is packed with a cleaning agent packed in a container having a capacity that can be used by a general consumer at the supply source. The agent is supplied to consumers who have signed the contract based on the contents of the prescribed contract, and after the consumption of the cleaning agent is completed by the consumer, the empty container is collected at the supplier, and the container is used for the cleaning agent. It is designed to be reused as a supply container.

  When the container is collected, at least the hydrogen ion concentration is inspected with a litmus paper and then reused.

  Furthermore, the detergent is used as a household detergent such as a laundry detergent used when washing clothes and a kitchen detergent used when washing dishes, and the supply of the detergent is performed regularly. To be supplied.

  According to the cleaning agent supply system of the present invention, an empty container after the consumption of the cleaning agent is recovered, and the container is used as a container for newly cleaning the cleaning agent. Unlike recycling methods that are wasteful and generate greenhouse gases, such as being incinerated even if a great deal of energy and effort is required, the containers can be used continuously over a long period of time, making them truly environmentally friendly. It can be performed.

  In addition, the necessary number of containers to be packed with the cleaning agent can be manufactured, and when the container becomes necessary, the required number can be manufactured. The amount of greenhouse gases emitted during production can be greatly reduced.

Hereinafter, the cleaning agent supply system of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the present cleaning agent supply system, the supplier 1 supplies each consumer 2 (consumer A, consumer B, consumer K) with a cleaning agent packed in a container (packed container a).

  Then, each consumer 2 (consumer A, consumer B, consumer K) collects the empty container (empty container b) after the consumption of the cleaning agent is collected in the supplier 1, and the container (empty container) The cleaning agent is packed in b) and supplied to each consumer 2.

  The empty container b collected in the supply source 1 is inspected by the litmus test paper 4 with the inspection unit 3 in addition to the visual inspection of the empty container b, and the test water is put in the empty container b. It is determined whether or not the collected empty container b can be reused.

  By doing this, it is possible to easily perform the presence or absence of impurities when reusing the empty container, and to suppress as much as possible the work that can be a cause of water pollution such as cleaning of the used container. There is also a merit.

  Next, the empty container b that has passed the inspection in the inspection unit 3 is transported to the stuffing unit 5, and the cleaning agent stored in the storage tank 6 in the stuffing unit 5 is stored in the empty container b. Stuffed.

  And the container (packed container a) filled with the cleaning agent is temporarily stored in the supply unit 7, and is also packed (packed) for each consumer 2 (consumer A, consumer B, consumer K). The cleaning agent packed in the container a) is supplied.

  Further, the supply of the cleaning agent is performed based on the contents of the contract, and as shown in FIG. 2, the supply date, the number of supply, the number of collection, etc. are determined.

  The cleaning agent to be supplied may be a laundry detergent used when washing clothes or a kitchen detergent used when washing dishes. In some cases, a cleaning agent used in a general household such as a cleaning agent or a cleaning detergent is supplied.

  The supply of the cleaning agent is basically determined by regularly determining the delivery date about once a month, but it may be supplied twice a month or every other month. Is managed by the personal computer 8 so that the consumption amount can be grasped for each consumer and the supply can be predicted for a long time.

The figure which shows the system configuration | structure in the supply system of the cleaning agent which concerns on this invention. The figure which shows an example of the supply specification form put together based on the contract content.
