  Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 are an overall view and an enlarged partial cross-sectional view of a deodorizing article 1 as an aroma / deodorizing stick according to an embodiment of the present invention. Applicants call this deodorized article "odor stick". This is named after Son Goku's Ruyi stick, which freely expands and contracts according to the will of the owner.

  The odor stick 1 is formed by covering a flexible wire 11 as a mandrel, a deodorizing agent 13 disposed around the flexible wire 11, and a packaging material 15 having air permeability. Then, it is formed in an elongated cylindrical shape (string shape) as a whole, and can be freely bent and deformed into a desired shape as will be described in detail later. After the deformation, the flexible wire 11 becomes a mandrel and its shape is maintained.

Specific dimensions of the scent bar are, for example, 3 mm to 10 mm in diameter and 30 cm to 5 m in length in consideration of daily use. For storage, wind it up like a normal metal wire. In actual sales, products with diameters of 3 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, lengths of 30 cm, 60 cm, 1 m and 2 m are prepared for various uses.
As the flexible wire 11, the one made of metal is excellent from the viewpoint of shape retention. However, it is good also as a flexible wire made from nylon from a viewpoint of cost or a manufacturing process. In any case, a material that can be easily deformed by the force of a human hand and has a degree of plasticity that maintains the shape after deformation is used.

  Here, a soft alloy flexible wire having a diameter of 0.2 mm to 0.7 mm, for example, a diameter of 0.5 mm, which is generally available, is used. When a thin flexible wire is used, the flexibility becomes high, so that it is suitable when used corresponding to a portion of a human body such as a glove. When a thick flexible wire is used, the shape can be maintained, which is appropriate when used for a portion that does not require flexibility.

  As the deodorizer 13, a physical deodorizer is used. A physical deodorant adsorbs and includes a component that causes malodor. On the other hand, there is a chemical deodorant. The chemical deodorant is a component that causes a bad odor source to chemically react with a component of the deodorizer to make an odorless component. Although a chemical deodorizer can be used as the deodorizer 13, an effect cannot be expected depending on the type of malodor, and versatility is lowered. There is also a difficulty in terms of reuse.

  Here, specifically, deodorized charcoal, in particular, bamboo charcoal granulated from Kagoshima-produced Sosetsu bamboo, is used as the deodorizer 13. Bunso bamboo bamboo charcoal has a variety of uses, and is particularly known for its excellent deodorizing, purifying, and humidity control. And if the particle size is about 1/3 to 1/6 of the radius of the odor stick 1, the handling is convenient. In this example, since the odor stick 1 has a diameter of 5 mm, the bamboo smashed to a particle size of about 1 to 2 mm is used. Even if the deodorizing power is reduced with use, the smashed bamboo is thus reusable by washing and can be used any number of times.

  As the packaging material 15, a porous synthetic resin film having excellent air permeability and sufficient strength is used. The flexible wire 11 and deodorized charcoal are placed on a film, wound with the film, and joined on the surface to produce the odor stick 1. Since this porous synthetic resin film is not stretchable, the deodorizing agent 13 will not move and be biased inside.

  In this case, since the porous synthetic resin film also permeates moisture, the effect can be recovered by washing the odor stick 1 with water as it is when the malodorous component is weakly adsorbed. In actual sales, a plurality of film colors such as red, black, white and blue are prepared for various uses.

  FIG. 3 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view of a deodorizing article 2 as an aroma / deodorant stick according to another embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the above embodiment, this embodiment is not provided with a flexible wire as a mandrel. Instead of providing a flexible wire, the packaging material 25 is made of a deformed shape retaining resin having air permeability. Therefore, like the above embodiment, it can be freely bent and deformed into a desired shape, and the shape is maintained after the deformation.

  4 and 5 are an overall view and a partially enlarged view of a deodorizing article 3 as an aroma / deodorant stick according to still another embodiment of the present invention. In the above embodiment, the deodorizer 33 is contained inside by using a porous synthetic resin film having no stretchability and by setting the particle size of the deodorizer to about 1/3 to 1/6 of the radius of the odor stick 1. And will not be biased. In this embodiment, the diaphragm 31 is inserted at a certain length, for example, every 1 to 2 cm to prevent the deodorizer 33 from moving and being biased inside. Therefore, the particle size of the deodorizer can be freely determined.

  Next, a specific usage example of the odor stick 1 will be described. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is installed in a baseball glove. That is, the odor stick 1 is deformed in advance into a hand shape as shown in the drawing and is installed in the glove.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is installed on the face and the hand of the kendo. That is, the odor stick 1 is deformed in advance into a shape that matches the face and hand as shown in the figure, and is installed in them. When installing in a mask, flexibility is not required, so a thick odor stick 1 should be used.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a case where the odor stick 1 is installed on the shoe. That is, the odor stick 1 is previously deformed into a shape that matches the shoe as shown in the figure, and is installed in them. When installing in shoes, flexibility is not necessary, so a thick odor stick 1 may be used.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is installed on a hanger used for clothes hanging. If you put it in the clothes chiffon, it will absorb the smell of other clothing. In particular, when the hanger is a metal hanger provided by a laundry or the like, if the odor stick 1 is loosely wrapped in an appropriate shape, the overall thickness will increase and the clothes will be deformed. There is also an effect of preventing. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 10, the odor stick 1 itself can be transformed into a hanger shape and used as a hanger.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is installed on the back. That is, if it is laid in advance according to the shape of the bottom of the bag, an unpleasant odor will not occur.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is installed in the waste bin. That is, if it is previously wound around the bottom of the waste bin in a spiral shape, an unpleasant odor will not occur.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a case where the animal's odor is absorbed by being wrapped around a pet collar. When kept indoors, it may be used instead of the collar as shown in FIG. In any case, if you use something in a colorful shade that is shaped to the owner's hobby, you will have more fun.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a case where the odor stick 1 is used as a strap. When used in a mobile phone that is always carried, a deodorizing effect can be expected. In this case, the flexible wire as the mandrel may be thinned or omitted.

  In the said embodiment, although the deodorizing agent was accommodated in the smell stick, you may accommodate a fragrance | flavor as an odorant instead of a deodorizing agent. As a fragrance, fragrances such as rose, lemon and peppermint are available. The other configuration is basically the same as that of the odor stick containing the deodorant, and thus the duplicate description is omitted.

  The odor stick containing the fragrance can be used in the same manner as the odor stick containing the deodorant as a countermeasure against bad odor. Or use for the purpose of enjoying the scent. In addition, by improving fashionability, in addition to those purposes, it may be worn around the neck as an accessory.

  As described above, the technical idea of the present invention is the same regardless of whether the deodorizer or the fragrance is used. Therefore, in the claims and the specification, these are collectively referred to as the fragrance / deodorant. And That is, both the deodorant and the fragrance are examples of the fragrance / deodorant.

  Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein. The present invention can be implemented as modified and changed modes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention defined by the description of the scope of claims. Therefore, the description of the present application is for illustrative purposes and does not have any limiting meaning to the present invention.
