A component 111 is included. The slit constituting portion 111 is formed by projecting the above-described first wall surface group and second wall surface group from the predetermined position on the inner surface of the main body 11 by 2 millimeters toward the inside of the main body 11. That is, the partition portion 13 is fixed in the container 1 by loosely sandwiching the slit portion 111 from both sides of the partition portion 13 disposed in the slit formed by the slit portion 111.

  The main body 11 has a first protrusion 112 for engaging with the lid 12 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2B and the like. The first protrusion 112 extends outward from the vicinity of the upper portion of the position of the outer surface corresponding to the position where the partition portion 13 is disposed in the first wall surface group and the second wall surface group. The first protrusion 112 has, for example, a mushroom shape, and is provided in total on the left and right side surfaces of the main body 11.

  The main body 11 has a second protrusion 113 for engaging with the lid 12 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2B and the like. The second protrusion 113 extends outward from a predetermined position on the outer surface of the first wall group and the second wall group. Specifically, the second protrusion 113 has a shape elongated in the horizontal direction from, for example, about 2 millimeters from the upper part of each of the left and right surfaces constituting the portion perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the container 1 on the outer surface of the main body 11. Projects outward. Therefore, there are two second protrusions 113.

  The partition portion 13 is a plate-like member that partitions the first space S1 and the second space S2, and the water separated from the soap flows from the first space S1 to the second space S2. As shown in FIG. 7, it has a passage, that is, a large number of small holes.

  Each of the above-mentioned many small holes has a size that does not allow the above-mentioned soap accommodated in the first space S1 to flow from the first space S1 to the second space S2. This is because the function of the container 1 is to separate the water from the soap and store it in the second space S2 after the soap has escaped from the first space S1 and moved to the second space S2. Because it cannot be done.

  The lid 12 includes a substantially rectangular or elliptical ceiling portion, a side surface portion that engages near the upper portion of the main body 11, and a net holding mechanism 122 described later. That is, when the side (back side) engaged with the vicinity of the upper part of the main body 11 of the lid 12 is seen, as shown in FIG. 3C and FIG. It extends in the direction to be connected, and continues from the side surface portion toward the inside of the lid 12 to the above-described ceiling portion that is substantially flat.

  As shown in FIG. 5 (b), the lid 12 has two recesses 123 for engaging with the two second protrusions 113, which are perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the container 1 inside the side surface portion. It has in each position of right and left.

It can be performed separately, whereby the function of the container 1 according to the present embodiment is fulfilled. When the soap is taken in and out, the portion on the right side of the line A1 shown in FIG. 2 (a) is opened and closed, and when the water is discharged, the left side of the line A2 shown in FIG. 2 (a). The part of is opened and closed.

  As shown in FIGS. 3C, 4C and the like, a net holding mechanism 122 that holds the net for foaming the soap is provided on the surface of the lid 12 that faces the first space S1. Is provided. The presence of the net holding mechanism 122 makes it possible to separately accommodate the soap and the lathering net to which water has adhered, and as a result, both can be prevented from sticking to each other with water adhering thereto.

  The net holding mechanism 122 is configured by a member that can hold the above-described net, for example. Specifically, the net holding mechanism 122 has a surface facing the first space S1 of the above-described ceiling portion of the lid body 12, and extends from the surface and finally extends in the direction toward the surface. It is composed of a U-shaped protrusion as seen from the lower side where the net can be sandwiched together with the surface.

  As shown in FIGS. 3C and 5B, the sealing frame 14 has an elongated frame shape with a substantially square cross-sectional area along the inside of the side surface portion on the back side of the lid 12. It has the shape of The sealing frame 14 is disposed at a predetermined position of the lid body 12 and is located between the main body 11 and the lid body 12 when the main body 11 and the lid body 12 are engaged with each other, and contributes to sealing the both in a watertight manner. .

  Hereinafter, an example of a method for using the container 1 according to the present embodiment having the above-described configuration will be described.

  First, the lid body 12 to which the sealing frame 14 is attached is prepared, and the above-described foaming net is sandwiched between the net holding mechanism 122. Next, soap is put into the first space S <b> 1, and the lid 12 is engaged with the main body 11. At this time, it is noted that the two first protrusions 112 and the two engaging portions 121 are engaged, and the two second protrusions 113 and the two recessed portions 123 are engaged.

  In such a state, the container 1 is carried in a bag or the like. Then, when it is desired to use the soap, the engagement between the second protrusion 113 on the side of the container 1 having the first space S1 and the recess 123 is released, and the first opening O1 in the lid 12 is released. The portion corresponding to is lifted upward to open the first opening O1. At this time, the engagement between the second projection 113 on the side of the container 1 having the second space S2 and the recess 123 is maintained, and the engagement between the two first projections 112 and the two engagement portions 121 is maintained. Note that this is also maintained.

  The above-mentioned soap is taken out from the first opening O1 and used for washing at the time of bathing. At this time, the above-described foaming net held by the net holding mechanism 122 is taken out and used for soap foaming. The user then rinses the soap and lather net. Then, the soap with water attached is accommodated in the container 1 through the first opening O1, and the foaming net with the water attached is sandwiched between the net holding mechanism 122 and corresponds to the first opening O1 in the lid body 12. The portion to be closed is closed and the second protrusion 113 and the recess 123 are engaged.

  Then, this time, the engagement between the second protrusion 113 on the side having the second space S2 in the container 1 and the recess 123 is released, and the portion corresponding to the second opening O2 in the lid 12 is moved upward. To open the second opening O2. At this time, the engagement between the second projection 113 on the side of the container 1 having the first space S1 and the recess 123 is maintained, and the engagement between the two first projections 112 and the two engagement portions 121 is maintained. Note that this is also maintained.

  In this state, the container 1 is hand-held with the second opening O2 on the bottom, and the soap and foaming net are drained. Thereby, the water separated from the soap and the foaming net passes through the passage of the partition portion 13 by centrifugal force or inertia force, and is discharged to the outside through the second opening O2 through the second space S2. . When the discharge of water is finished, the portion corresponding to the second opening O2 in the lid 11 is closed, and the second protrusion 113 and the recess 123 are engaged.

  Then, the container 1 in this state is again carried in a bag or the like. At that time, it is desirable to take care that the container 1 is not upside down or slanted. Then, since the bottom part of the first space S1 is inclined so as to descend toward the second space S2, the water that has not been completely discharged earlier passes through the passage of the partition part 13, and the second space It will be accommodated in the space S2. At this time, as described above, the surface of the bottom portion of the first space S1 is formed in a wave shape so that the water adhering to the soap is easily separated. Furthermore, since the bottom portion of the first space S1 is provided at a position slightly higher than the bottom portion of the second space S2 through a step, water accommodated in the second space S2 enters the first space S1. As described above, it does not reverse.

  Through the use procedure as described above, the soap in the container 1 is separated from the water adhering thereto and discharged from the second opening O2 or accommodated in the second space S2. It does not become a softened state. Therefore, the soap accommodated in the container 1 can always be used in a comfortable state for the user of the container 1. In addition, since the container 1 is sealed in a watertight state when the main body 11 and the lid 12 are engaged, water may leak from the container 1 and wet the surroundings when being carried in a bag or the like. Absent.

  The above-described embodiments can be variously modified within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

  For example, although the main body 11, the lid body 12, and the partition portion 13 are made of synthetic resin, they may be made of other materials such as metal. Moreover, although the sealing frame 14 is made of silicon rubber, it may also be made of other materials.

  In addition, the container 1 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape like a lunch box, but this does not limit the present invention.

  Moreover, although the bottom of the first space S1 is inclined so as to descend toward the second space S2, it may not be inclined if there is no particular problem.

  Further, the bottom of the first space S1 is provided at a position slightly higher than the bottom of the second space S2 through a step, but the step may be omitted if there is no particular problem.

  In addition, the bottom surface of the first space S1 is configured to wave in a direction perpendicular to the direction from the first space S1 to the second space S2, but it is wavy for the purpose of improving drainage. However, it is only necessary that a plurality of irregularities be provided on the surface of the bottom of the first space S1. If there is no particular problem, the plurality of unevenness may not be provided.

  Moreover, although the partition part 13 shall have many small holes in order to make the distribution | circulation of the water from 1st space S1 to 2nd space S2 easy, if there is no problem in particular, it is not many. It is only necessary to have at least one passage. Moreover, as long as the thing accommodated in 1st space S1 does not move to 2nd space S2 through the partition part 13, the above-mentioned channel | path may be what kind of shape or magnitude | size. .

  In addition, the main body 11 is provided with the slit constituting portion 111 for fixing the partition portion 13. However, if the partition portion 13 can be fixed at an appropriate position of the main body 11, other than the slit constituting portion 111. A configuration may be used. For example, the partition part 13 may be formed integrally with the main body 11. In that case, the slit structure part 111 becomes unnecessary. Further, the above description does not limit the present invention with respect to the shape or size of the slit component 111.

  Further, the main body 11 is provided with a first protrusion 112 and a second protrusion 113, and the lid body 12 is provided with an engaging portion 121 and a recess portion 123, which are engaged with each other to form the main body 11 and the lid body. 12 may be used, but if the main body 11 and the lid body 12 are engaged and the purpose of not easily separating them can be achieved, a configuration other than the configuration described above may be used. Good. For example, instead of the first protrusion 112 of the main body 11, a dome-shaped protrusion is provided, and instead of cutting the engaging portion 121 of the lid body 12, a mortar-shaped concave portion is provided on the inside thereof, and the dome-shaped protrusion of the main body 11 is provided. A configuration in which the main body 11 and the lid body 12 are engaged by the protrusion and the mortar-shaped concave portion of the lid body 12 engaging each other may be employed. In addition, the above description does not limit the present invention with respect to the shape or size of the first protrusion 112, the second protrusion 113, the engagement portion 121, or the recess portion 123.

  Moreover, although the cover body 12 shall have a substantially rectangular or elliptical ceiling part, this shape does not limit this invention. In addition, the lid body 12 has a side surface portion that is engaged near the upper portion of the main body 11, and the side surface portion extends in a direction to engage with the main body 11, but the shape of the side surface portion is also The above description does not limit the invention.

  The lid 12 can be opened and closed independently at the first opening O1 and the second opening O2 in a state of being engaged with the main body 11, but as will be described in Modification 1 described later. If there is no particular problem, it may not be possible to open and close each independently.

  In addition, the second opening O2 is provided on the upper surface of the second space S2, but the second opening O2 may be provided at another position as described in Modification Example 2 described later. .

  Further, although the net holding mechanism 122 for holding the net for foaming soap is provided on the back side of the lid 12, the net holding mechanism 122 may not be provided if there is no particular problem. The net holding mechanism 122 may have any configuration as long as it can hold the above-described net. For example, you may provide shapes other than a U-shape. In addition, for example, a door that can be opened and closed like a small window is provided in a portion that closes the first opening O1 of the lid 12, and a pocket that is formed of a wall surface having a large number of holes is provided on the inside thereof. The door may be opened in a state where the first opening O1 is closed while being attached to the main body 11 so that the net can be taken in and out.

  Further, the sealing frame 14 may be omitted or an alternative configuration may be used as long as the purpose of sealing the main body 11 and the lid body 12 in a watertight manner can be achieved.

Hereinafter, modifications of the above-described embodiment will be described. In the following description, differences from the above-described embodiment will be mainly described.
(Modification 1)

  FIG. 8 is an external view of the container 1 according to this modification.

  In the above-described embodiment, notches are formed on both sides of the engaging portion 121 in the longitudinal direction of the container 1, and the portion corresponding to the first opening O <b> 1 of the lid body 12 and the second portion are provided by the notches. The portion corresponding to the opening portion O2 can be opened and closed independently.

  In the present modification, the above-described notch is not provided in the lid 12, and the lid 12 has a portion corresponding to the first opening O1 and a portion corresponding to the second opening O2 not independent. At the same time, they are opened and closed together.

  As a result, the structure of the main body 11 and the lid body 12 can be simplified. That is, the main body 11 does not include the first protrusion 112 and the second protrusion 113, and the lid body 12 does not include the engagement portion 121 and the recess portion 123. And by using resin materials having different elasticity for each of the main body 11 and the lid body 12, the upper surface of the wall surface of the main body 11 is engaged with each other by being fitted in a groove provided on the lower edge of the lower surface of the lid body 12. The structure which seals watertightly from the outside is employ | adopted. Therefore, the sealing frame 14 is not necessary.

  And the usage method of the container 1 is also easy so that it may demonstrate below. That is, after the soap is used, the soap is accommodated in the first space S1, and as shown in FIG. 8, the cover 12 covers only the first opening O1 and the second opening O2. The lid body 12 is arranged on the main body 11 in such a relative positional relationship. In this state, the container 1 is held by hand so that the positions of the lid 12 and the main body 11 do not change, and the container 1 is shaken by the hand so that the second opening O2 is on the lower side. The water separated from the soap is discharged from the second opening O2 through the second space S2 by centrifugal force or inertial force.

In addition, it is free to employ other configurations that contribute to the engagement between the main body 11 and the lid body 12. For example, the structure which provides the 2nd protrusion 113 and the recessed part 123 in each of the main body 11 and the cover body 12, and engages them mutually like in the above-mentioned embodiment may be employ | adopted.
(Modification 2)

  FIG. 9 is an external view of a container according to this modification.

A configuration is adopted in which the stopper 12b closes the second opening O2 when the container 1 is sealed. The plug 12b constitutes a part of the lid that seals the opening in a watertight manner together with the lid 12a that closes the opening at the top of the main body 11.

  By having such a configuration, the user can easily change the container 1 from a sealed state to a state in which water can be discharged from the second opening O2.

  That is, after the soap is used, the soap is accommodated in the first space S1, and the lid 12a is engaged with the main body 11. Then, the above-mentioned stopper 12b is removed from the second opening O2, and the container 1 is held and shaken with the hand so that the second opening O2 is on the lower side. Is discharged from the second opening O2 by centrifugal force or inertial force.

  In addition, it is desirable that the above-described plug 12b is always attached to the main body 11 with a chain or the like in a state where it can be detached from the second opening O2. This is to prevent the above-described stopper 12b from being lost when it is removed from the second opening O2.

  In the present modification, the lid body 12a adopts a configuration in which the portion corresponding to the first opening O1 can be opened and closed independently from the portion corresponding to the upper surface of the second space S2 as in the above-described embodiment. Alternatively, a configuration in which a portion corresponding to the first opening O1 and a portion corresponding to the upper surface of the second space S2 are integrally opened and closed simultaneously as in the first modification example described above. Good.

  The container according to the present invention is convenient not only for storing soap, but also for storing food such as blueberries and lettuce. For example, if the container is stored in a refrigerator or the like with the blueberries stored in the first space, the water separated from the blueberries moves from the first space to the second space through the partition and is stored there. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the blueberry from being damaged by being immersed in water for a long time.

  Also, for example, it can be used when a body towel or sponge used for washing the body is drained and carried after use.

  As described above, the container according to the present invention is expected to be used in various situations in which an object with water attached is accommodated in the container.
