Two or more deformed holes 34b having a large-diameter portion through which the headed protrusion 34a can be inserted and a small-diameter portion that can be locked can be employed (FIG. 8A). Further, in place of the combination of the headed projection 34a and the odd-shaped hole 34b, two or more rectangular projections 34c that can be elastically bent and two or more rectangular holes that can be snapped into the projections 34c. 34d (Fig. 8 (b)), two or more pairs of male and female hooks 34e, 34f (Fig. 8 (c)), and two or more pairs of rails 34g, 34h that are slidably engaged with each other ( FIG. 8D) and the like can be employed.

  In particular, in the connection mechanism 34 including the rails 34g and 34h shown in FIG. 8D, the relative positions at the time of mutual connection of the plurality of accommodating portions 24 can be appropriately selected. According to this configuration, the overall outer shape of the storage device 12 and the positions of the individual storage portions 24 can be appropriately changed as necessary. In addition, also in the connection mechanism 34 shown to Fig.8 (a)-(c), by increasing the number of the connection elements 34a-34f which mutually cooperate, the position of the connection element of a connection other party can be selected suitably. Similarly, it can be set as the structure which can select the relative position at the time of mutual connection of the accommodating part 24. FIG.

  On the other hand, the storage device 12 (FIGS. 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 7A and 7B) in which a plurality of storage portions 24 are integrally formed with each other. 7 (b) forms a plurality of internal spaces 28 and openings 30, and a wall portion 32 between adjacent internal spaces 28 in an apparatus body integrally formed in a shape including all of the accommodating portions 24. Can be configured. Alternatively, the individual accommodating portions 24 described above can be configured by permanently connecting and integrating each other. According to this configuration, the structure of the storage device 12 can be simplified, the manufacturing cost can be reduced, and the rigidity of the entire device can be improved.

  The attachment mechanism 26 of the storage device 12 includes a fixing element 36 that fixes and attaches the plurality of storage portions 24 to the external structure S (FIGS. 2 to 7). The fixing element 36 can be selected from fastening mechanical elements such as nails, wood screws, rivets, and welding according to the material of the structure S, the required mounting strength, and the like. When the surface of the structure S is flat and clean, an adhesive or a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 36a (FIG. 9A) can be used as the fixing element 36.

The mounting element 40 includes a combination of a suction cup 40a and an auxiliary seat 40b (FIG. 9B), a combination of a nail or wood screw 40c and a hooking hole 40d (FIG. 9C), and a combination of a rail 40e and a hook 40f ( It can be selected as appropriate from FIG. The attachment element 40 can removably attach the entire storage device 12 to the structure S. According to this configuration, installation, removal, rearrangement, and the like of the storage device 12 can be easily performed according to site requirements.

  The storage device 12 may further include a contact prevention unit 42 that prevents mutual contact of the adhesive rolls 16 of the plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 individually accommodated in the plurality of storage units 24 (FIGS. 2 to 7). . According to this configuration, during the storage in the storage device 12, the adhesive rolls 16 of the plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 adhere to each other on the adhesive surfaces 14, thereby hindering the handling of the adhesive roll cleaner 10. However, it is prevented in advance.

  The contact prevention part 42 can include the isolation element 44 provided between the adjacent accommodating parts 24 (FIGS. 2-7). The isolation element 44 is interposed between the adhesive rolls 16 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 accommodated in the adjacent accommodating portions 24, and can be configured as a part of the wall portion 32 of each individual accommodating portion 24. According to this structure, since the contact prevention part 42 can be formed simultaneously in the manufacturing process of each accommodating part 24, it is advantageous in cost. In this case, as the separating element 44, a solid plate 44a (FIG. 10A), a plurality of bars 44b (FIG. 10B), a mesh plate 44c (FIG. 10C), and a pair of opposed protrusions 44d. (FIG. 10D) and the like can be appropriately selected and employed. In addition, the whole wall part 32 which each accommodating part 24 has can also be made into the same structure as the isolation | separation element 44 (44a-44d).

  Or the contact prevention part 42 can also contain the holding element 46 provided in each accommodating part 24 (FIG.10 (e)). The holding element 46 holds the adhesive roll cleaner 10 housed in each housing portion 24 at a fixed position in the internal space 28. According to this configuration, in particular, in the configuration in which the plurality of storage portions 24 are integrally formed with each other, the structure of the storage device 12 is reduced by omitting the wall portion between the adjacent storage portions 24 as illustrated. It can be simplified. In the configuration in which the plurality of accommodating portions 24 are connected to be separable from each other, the holding element 46 can be provided in addition to the wall portion 32 (that is, the isolation element 44) between the adjacent accommodating portions 24.

  The storage device 12 further has as much mutual adhesive force as possible between the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 accommodated in each accommodating portion 24 and the surface of the wall portion 32 that defines the internal space 28. It is possible to provide a configuration for reducing the above. For example, in a storage device 12 (FIGS. 2 and 3) for storing a plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 in a horizontal orientation in parallel in the vertical direction, as shown in FIG. A lifting part 48 that engages and separates the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 at least partially from the inner wall surface 32 b of the accommodating part 24 can be provided in the at least one accommodating part 24. According to this configuration, during storage in the storage device 12, the contact area between the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 of each adhesive roll cleaner 10 and the inner wall surface 32 b of the wall portion 32 of the storage portion 24 is as much as possible. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the adhesive surface 14 from adhering to the inner wall surface 32b from hindering the handling of the adhesive roll cleaner 10.

  In the example shown in the drawing, the lifting portion 48 opens one of the hanging wall portions 32 a that define the opening portion 30 within a range that does not hinder smooth insertion and removal of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 with respect to the internal space 28 of the housing portion 24. It is formed by extending in a narrowing direction (FIG. 11A). In this case, the lifting portion 48 engages with the base of the gripping portion 22 of the support member 18 at its end edge to lift the adhesive roll cleaner 10 obliquely, thereby substantially the entire adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16. Is separated from the inner wall surface (floor surface) 32b on the lower side of the accommodating portion 24 in the direction of gravity.

  The lifting portion 48 described above can also be effectively employed in the storage device 12 (FIGS. 4 and 5) that stores the plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 in an oblique orientation in parallel in the vertical direction. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), the sum of the inclination angle θ of the accommodating portion 24 with respect to the horizontal plane in the direction of gravity and the lifting angle γ of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 with respect to the floor surface 32 b of the accommodating portion 24 is 90 By forming the lifting portion 48 so as to be less than the degree, the adhesive roll cleaner 10 can be stably accommodated in the accommodating portion 24.

  In the above configuration, a cutout portion 50 for receiving the base of the gripping portion 22 of the support member 18 can be provided at the end edge of the lifting portion 48 (FIG. 11C). The cutout portion 50 prevents the support member 18 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 that is lifted obliquely from the floor surface 32 b of the housing portion 24 by the lifting portion 48 from sliding sideways along the edge of the lifting portion 48. Acts like As a result, a reduction in storage stability due to a reduction in the contact area between the pressure-sensitive adhesive roll 16 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive roll cleaner 10 and the wall portion 32 of the storage portion 24 is compensated.

  As another means for reducing the mutual adhesive force between the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 and the surface of the wall portion 32 of the housing portion 24, the adhesive force is applied to the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16. The low-adhesion contact portion 52 that is contacted so as to weaken may be provided in at least one housing portion 24 (FIG. 12). The low-adhesion contact portion 52 is formed on the inner wall surface 32 b of the wall portion 32 of the housing portion 24 at a portion where contact with the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 is predicted. According to this configuration, the storage device 12 (FIG. 6) that stores a plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 in a horizontal position in parallel and a plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 stores a plurality of adhesive roll cleaners 10 in a horizontal direction in parallel. Even in the storage device 12 (FIG. 7), the adhesion surface 14 of the adhesion roll 16 can be effectively prevented from adhering to the inner wall surface 32 b of the accommodation portion 24.

  As the low-adhesion contact portion 52, a plurality of dot-like protrusions 52a (FIG. 12A), a plurality of linear protrusions 52b (FIG. 12B), and an uneven surface 52c by a sandblasting method (FIG. 12C). ), A plurality of wall-shaped protrusions 52d (FIG. 12 (d)) and the like obtained by bending when the sheet-shaped wall portion 32 is provided can be appropriately selected and employed. Alternatively, as the low-adhesion contact portion 52, a release agent treatment that makes it difficult to attach the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 can be applied to the inner wall surface 32 b of the housing portion 24. As the release agent, silicone, urethane, fluorine, acrylic, etc. can be adopted, and by applying an appropriate release agent corresponding to the adhesive of the adhesive surface 14 to the inner wall surface 32b of the accommodating portion 24, Alternatively, the low-adhesion contact portion 52 can be formed by crosslinking the release agent after application by room temperature, heating, light irradiation such as ultraviolet rays, or the like.

  As yet another means for reducing the mutual adhesive force between the adhesive roll 16 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 and the wall portion 32 of the housing portion 24, the wall portion 32 itself is used instead of providing the low adhesive contact portion 52. It can also be made from a material to which the adhesive surface 14 of the adhesive roll 16 is difficult to adhere. As a material for such a wall portion 32, synthetic resins such as polypropylene, polyacetal, high density polyethylene, and fluororesin can be used, and additives such as silicone and fluorine are added to these and other general resin materials. Added materials can also be used.

  In the storage device 12, the size of each storage portion 24 is such that most of the gripping portion 22 of the support member 18 is opened from the opening 30 when the adhesive roll cleaner 10 is stored, as shown in FIGS. A dimension that protrudes outward is desirable in terms of facilitating handling by an operator. However, as shown in FIG. 13, in particular, when the accommodating portion 24 has the opening 30 extended over two adjacent surfaces of the rectangular parallelepiped, substantially the entire adhesive roll cleaner 10 is accommodated in the internal space 28. Even if it is such a dimension, it is avoided that the handleability by an operator deteriorates.

  Further, the opening portion 30 of the housing portion 24 is configured so that the gripping portion 22 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 housed in the housing portion 24 as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. When it has the shape which can project in the direction which can be selected arbitrarily, the handleability by an operator can be improved further. In particular, in the configuration shown in FIG. 13, the two adjacent surfaces on which the openings 30 are formed are reconfigured as a single curved surface (FIG. 14) with a reduced corner, thereby occupying the storage unit 24 having the original rectangular parallelepiped outline. Within the region, the gripping portion 22 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10 accommodated in the accommodating portion 24 can be protruded outward from the opening 30.

  15 and 16 show a storage device 54 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The storage device 54 includes, in addition to the plurality of storage units 24 described above, an auxiliary storage unit 58 that stores a preliminary adhesive roll 56 that can be replaced with the adhesive roll 16 supported by the support member 18 of the adhesive roll cleaner 10. Further prepare. Since the structure of the storage part 24 and the attachment mechanism 26 of the storage device 54 is substantially the same as that of the storage part 24 and the attachment mechanism 26 of the storage device 12 described above, description thereof will be omitted. Note that FIGS. 15A to 15C and FIGS. 16A to 16C all show various forms of the storage device 54 that can be realized. According to such a configuration, even when the adhesive roll 16 is used up while the adhesive roll cleaner 10 is used, the unused preliminary adhesive roll 56 is immediately attached to the support member 18 and the cleaning operation is continued. Can be done.

  As mentioned above, although the structure of the storage apparatuses 12 and 54 by preferable embodiment of this invention was demonstrated, the storage apparatus which concerns on this invention can have various structures other than the above and illustration. For example, the individual accommodating portions 24 are not limited to a shape having a rectangular parallelepiped outline (FIGS. 2, 3, 6, and 7), but may be a cylindrical shape, a spherical shape, a hemispherical shape, a cone shape, a shape including various curved surfaces, or the like. It can have various contour shapes in consideration of ease and design. In addition, a lid having an appropriate structure (such as a hinge type, a slide type, a bellows type, a drawer type, and a swivel type) that opens and closes the opening 30 can be installed in each housing portion 24 for dust prevention. Furthermore, other functional elements such as a trash can and a mirror can be attached to the storage devices 12 and 54 as necessary. In addition, as materials for the storage devices 12 and 54, general materials such as synthetic resin, paper, wood, rubber, and metal can be used, and can be appropriately selected in consideration of necessary rigidity, workability, designability, and the like. In particular, from the viewpoint of workability and toning properties, synthetic resin materials such as polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, acrylic, epoxy, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene polymer resin, and the like are preferable.
