  The present invention relates to a container with a comb configured to assemble a comb body into a container body containing a content solution such as a hair dyeing solution or hair nail polish and apply the content liquid directly from the container body to the hair.

With comb that attaches comb body to squeeze container body or aerosol-type container body, and can apply contents liquid such as gray hair dye liquid and hair nail polish stored in container body directly to hair Containers are known.
In a conventional container with a comb of this type, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, a plurality of comb-tooth pieces are arranged in parallel on a stand-up cylinder that is erected in a continuous manner at a spout of a container body. At the same time, a comb tooth body in which a large number of discharge holes are formed between the comb tooth pieces is assembled and fixed, and the liquid content pressurized and poured out from the spout of the container body is erected, and each comb tooth is passed through the discharge hole. By discharging and holding between the pieces and combing the hair in this state, the discharged content liquid is applied to the target hair portion.

Here, white hair dyeing liquid, hair nail polish and the like are easily solidified or deteriorated when exposed to air, and in the case of a type that is used in several degrees, it is necessary to wash the comb after use. Further, considering the separate collection of containers after use, it is required to clean the comb body even if it is a type that uses up the content liquid all at once, but it is particularly difficult to clean small holes such as discharge holes.
In this regard, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 of Patent Document 2, the comb body is integrally formed with a number of comb teeth pieces as comb teeth bodies, and this is assembled and fixed to the upright cylinder in an undercut shape as a separate member. If it is set as the structure to perform, it is also possible to remove and wash this comb-tooth body when washing | cleaning is required.

The container with a comb of the present embodiment is composed of an aerosol container 31a which is one form of a container body 31 for storing the content liquid, and a comb body 1. It consists of three members: an upright cylindrical body 2 integrally provided with an assembled cylinder 9 that is assembled and fixed at the upper end, a comb tooth body 11, and an opening / closing body 21.
The comb tooth body 11 has a top wall of a base cylinder piece 12 s having a long and short cylindrical shape as a substrate 12, and a large number of comb tooth pieces 13 are erected in parallel on the substrate 12. A slit-like discharge hole 16 is formed at the center of the left and right sides.
Further, a seal cylinder piece 14 is suspended from the peripheral edge of the lower surface of the substrate 12.

  The upright cylindrical body 2 has a bottomed short cylindrical shape in an upright posture in which the discharge chamber R is formed by tightly fitting the base cylindrical piece 12s on the front surface side 2f of the upper end portion of the upright cylindrical piece 2a. The lower part of the fitting cylinder piece 3 is continuously provided.

  The comb-tooth body 11 is fixed to the front surface of the upright cylinder body 2 by fixing the base cylinder piece 12s and the fitting cylinder piece 3 of the comb-tooth body 11 firmly in an undercut shape and hermetically sealed by the seal cylinder piece 14. Although arranged on the side 2f, the substrate 12 of the comb tooth body 11 is inclined obliquely upward and rearward, and the comb tooth piece 13 is erected obliquely upward and forward.

  And the outlet flow path F which connects the spout 32 of the aerosol container 31a and the discharge hole 16 of the comb-tooth body 11 in the range from the lower end of the standing cylinder 2 to the upper end including the discharge chamber R is formed.

In addition, an oval opening window is formed on the back side 2b of the upright cylinder 2 at a position substantially opposite to the position where the comb teeth 11 are disposed, that is, in the present embodiment, on the inclined bottom wall 3b of the fitting cylinder piece 3. 4 is formed.
Here, as described above, since the upper end portion of the upright cylinder piece 2 a and the lower portion of the fitting cylinder piece 3 are connected, the opening window 4 is connected to the bottom wall 3 b of the fitting cylinder piece 3. An opening having a sufficient size is formed in the upper portion excluding the portion, and the inside of the comb body 1 can be washed effectively in a short time by pouring water directly and directly into the opening window 4 from a tap or the like. .

  The opening / closing body 21 is a member that is disposed along the back side 2b of the upright cylinder 2 and seals the opening window 4 so as to be openable and closable. It is an elongated flat plate that is bent obliquely upward and backward in accordance with the inclination of the bottom wall 3 b of the piece 3.

The opening / closing body 21 has a fixing portion 22 formed with a circular fitting hole 23 in the vicinity of the lower end, a thinned hinge portion 24 is formed above the fixing portion 22, and further bent upward and obliquely upward and rearward. A lid portion 25 provided with a seal tube piece 26 fitted in a sealed manner to the opening window 4 is provided at the portion thus formed.
Further, a knob 29 is extended at the tip of the lid 25.

  And the fixing | fixed part 22 is assembled | attached to the short column-shaped fitting protrusion piece 5 protrudingly provided in the back side 2b of the standing cylinder piece 2a using the circular fitting hole 23 part so that rotation in an undercut shape is possible. Fix it. Further, the lid portion 25 seals the opening window 4 using a seal cylinder piece 26.

  Next, the comb body 1 composed of these three members is assembled and fixed to the upper end portion of the aerosol container 31a by using the assembled cylinder 9 integrally connected to the standing cylinder 2 via the hinge piece 7, When the lower end portion of the upright cylindrical piece 2 a is externally fitted to the upper end portion of the stem 33, the spout 32 and the discharge hole 16 of the comb tooth body 11 communicate with each other via the outlet channel F including the discharge chamber R.

  When the pressing piece 8 is pushed downward, the stem 33 is displaced downward, and the content liquid passes through the spout 32 and the outlet channel F, fills the discharge chamber R that becomes a part of the outlet channel F, and is slit. It discharges between the comb-tooth pieces 13 from the shape-like discharge hole 16.

When cleaning the inside of the comb body 1 after use, the knob 29 protruding from the upper end of the comb tooth body 11 is picked with a fingertip, and the lid part 25 is displaced backward using the hinge part 24. Then, the sealing cylinder piece 26 is inserted and removed from the opening window 4, and then the opening and closing body 21 is rotated in the left-right direction with the fixing portion 22 as the shaft portion to open the opening window 4 sufficiently large (see FIG. 4).
Then, the interior of the comb body 1 can be effectively cleaned in a short time by pouring water directly into the opening window 4 opened sufficiently large, for example, from a tap.

  In particular, the opening window 4 is arranged on the back side 2b so as to be opposed to the comb tooth body 11 arranged on the front side 2f, and tap water can be directly applied to the discharge hole 16 in a jetting manner. It is possible to effectively clean the discharge holes 16 in which it is difficult to clean the remaining content liquid with the slit-shaped flow path.

Further, the comb cylinder 1 is removed via the outlet channel F by removing the assembled cylinder 9 from the aerosol container 31a and pouring tap water through the lower end opening of the upright cylinder piece 2a with the opening window 4 opened sufficiently large. The entire body can be washed, and after washing, the comb body 1 can be used repeatedly by assembling it into a new aerosol container 31a.
Similarly, the assembled cylinder 9 can be removed from the aerosol container 31a, and the entire comb body 1 can be washed by immersing it in water stored in a basin or the like with the opening window 4 opened sufficiently large.

As mentioned above, although the embodiment of the present invention has been described according to the example, the present invention is not limited to this example.
In the above embodiment, the container body is an aerosol container, but it can also be a squeeze-type container body that presses the body portion and pours out the content liquid.

Further, the configuration of this embodiment is merely an example of the comb tooth body, and various shapes of the comb tooth body can be used. For example, in the present embodiment, the discharge holes are slit-shaped, but a large number of fine cylindrical discharge holes are formed, or the comb teeth are formed in a plate shape, the discharge holes penetrate the substrate, and the tips are inserted into the comb teeth. It is also possible to have a configuration in which the liquid is extended from the tip of the comb tooth piece to the comb tooth piece, extending in the shape of a vertical hole toward the part and communicating with the through horizontal hole formed at the tip part. .

  Further, in the above embodiment, in order to make the comb-teeth body inclined, the upright cylindrical piece and the fitting cylindrical piece are connected to form the upright cylindrical body. However, the opening is formed in the peripheral wall on the front side of the upright cylindrical piece. A part can be formed and the comb-tooth body can be directly fitted into the opening.

  As described above, the comb-equipped container of the present invention can easily and effectively wash the inside of the comb body, and is expected to be widely used as a dispensing container for white hair dyeing liquid, hair nail polish and the like.
