Description

 The present invention is an invention of a mask storage case for storing a mask used by a person.

Conventional masks are used for infection prevention and allergy prevention, but they are removed several times a day during meals, meetings, etc. during use. In each case, the location of the mask was unspecified, and no consideration was given to preventing infection or cleaning the inside and outside of the mask. There were boxes and bags for storing the removed masks, but there are many things that can be touched by hand. Also, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-137858, there is a case in which a case is attached to a mask and used. However, it is not easy to remove a mask ear hook, and viruses and dust attached to the case are scattered around during storage. The problem is that it cannot be prevented. In addition, it is conceivable to touch the virus or dust attached to the mask case with a hand when remounting. Therefore, it is convenient to have a mask case that can be easily detached and stored without touching the inside or outside of the mask by hand.

JP-A-2005-137858 JP2007-68892

The mask can be easily attached and removed without touching the front and back of the mask, and can be stored at the same time, keeping the inside and outside of the mask clean, and easily storing without attaching virus, dust and pollen to the surroundings. Provide a mask storage case that is compact and convenient to carry.

A case main body made of a substantially rectangular sheet material is used with its longitudinal direction extending in the horizontal direction, and a protruding portion on which a mask ear hook is hung from the short side edge of the case main body extends in the longitudinal direction of the mask. , Can be folded in half at the center, the mask is placed inside the case body, the mask ear hook is exposed to the outside of the protruding part, folded in half, and the mask is sandwiched between the case body and stored In this case, the protruding portion is formed such that the upper base end side, which continues from the short side edge of the case, is formed so as to be licked upward, and the lower base end side is formed so as to be licked downward. The mask can be attached and detached without touching.

In this mask storage case, it was attached to the mask if the medicine holding part formed by forming a sheet of fibers for sterilization or spraying and holding the bactericide on the inner side surface of the case body was detachably attached. It can inactivate bacteria and viruses effectively.

Further, in the mask storage case described above, the mask can be easily stored by attaching the mask drop prevention means to the inside of the case body.

By attaching a fastener or a locking part for maintaining the state where the case body is sandwiched without opening the case body when folded in half, it can be stored compactly and is convenient for carrying.

The mask can be easily attached and removed without touching the front and back surfaces of the mask, and can be stored in the case as it is. The inside and outside of the mask can be kept clean and can be easily stored without attaching virus, dust or pollen to the surroundings. As a result, the mask storage case is convenient to carry.

Front view showing the case body with a mask attached Front view showing the state of storage The front view which shows the state which pinched | interposed the three-dimensional mask between fall prevention tools Central sectional view of the mask storage case of FIG.

The mask is used by the person wearing the mask to prevent allergens, bacteria, viruses, etc. from being splashed by the outside world, and to prevent them from being splashed by their own cough or breath. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the inside and the back side clean. Although the number of disposable masks has increased, it has to be removed several times a day. It can be disposable each time, but that requires a lot of masks. There was no suitable storage case. In addition, bags and box-shaped items cannot be stored compactly because they require a size for folding the mask by hand or putting the whole in.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, the case main body 1 has a vertical and horizontal size that is greater than the vertical and horizontal sizes of the mask 7 to be used. The protrusion 2 on which the mask ear hook 10 is hung from the edge of the short side extends in the longitudinal direction, and is formed so as to be foldable in the center. It is hung so that it is exposed to the outside of the protrusion 2 and is folded in half at the center of the case body or the center of the mask 7 so that the mask 7 is sandwiched between sheet materials and stored. The upper side base end side following the short side edge of the material was formed obliquely upward, and the lower side base end side was formed obliquely downward. Accordingly, when attaching / detaching the mask 7, the case main body 1 is pressed against the face and the mask ear hook 10 is attached / detached, so that the mask ear hook 10 can be easily attached to / detached from the case main body 1 without touching the mask 7. Can be fixed. The sheet material can be paper, plastic sheet, cloth, leather or the like. The mask can be stored and attached to the case at the same time by the operation of attaching and detaching the mask.

The shape of the projecting portion 2 is similar to a human ear, with a trapezoid sideways, with rounded corners, and preferably the same length as the short side of the case or a little smaller. And it is necessary for the ear hooking part 10 of the mask 7 to be easy to put on and to have a shape that is easy to remove. The base end portion may be at an angle within 45 degrees from the short side end of the main body.

Hold the outer face of the case body 1 on the face of the mask and press it against the face to remove the left and right mask ear hooks 10, hang them on the projections 2 for the mask ear hooks 10 attached to the mask body 1, and separate them from the face. The mask 7 can be removed without touching the mask, and the mask 7 stored on the face is pressed against the face and the left and right mask ear hooks 10 are put on the ears. In advance, fold the case body 1 such as paper, sheet, cloth, leather, etc., larger than the unfolded mask 7 in the middle and fold it into an arbitrary width to bond or sew, or cut the case body in two If the joint or stitching portion 4 having an arbitrary width is formed outside the bi-folded portion of the case main body, the outer side of the case main body can be easily held, and the face is attached to the face. Convenient to press.

Moreover, the chemical | medical agent holding | maintenance part 3 which formed the fiber which hold | maintains by sterilizing or disinfecting a bactericidal agent in the sheet form is attached to the mask storage case mentioned above so that attachment or detachment is possible. A mask is fixed there, and it is preserve | saved so that it may be pinched | interposed by the case main body 1. FIG. Thereby, the outside of the mask can be sterilized and sterilized. The reason for cutting the case body 1 and bonding and stitching it in two is because it has a strong pinching effect and can be reliably broken. Furthermore, it becomes hygienic by making the medicine holding part 3 detachable.

Since the mask ear hook 10 can be easily attached to and detached from the case, the operation is simple and convenient. When the outside of the mask comes in contact with a sterilized sprayed cloth, bacteria are killed or the number of bacteria is reduced, reducing the infectivity. Because the case itself is put in the bag or pocket beforehand, bacteria and viruses attached to the mask are not scattered nearby.

Before use, a sterilization or sterilization spray is sprayed on the surface of the medicine holding part 3 in the case body 1. It can be used cleanly by attaching several double-sided tapes to the back of the sprayed cloth, or by attaching some weak double-sided tapes to the case body and replacing them occasionally.

By attaching the mask drop prevention means 5 to the inside of the above-described mask storage case, it is convenient for storing a normal mask 7 or a three-dimensional mask 11 folded in advance. If there is a mask 11 that is currently manufactured in three dimensions and it is removed, it overlaps with the mask 11 so that when it is housed in the case body 1, it will fall off if the ear hook is simply hung on the protruding portion 2 without the fall prevention means 5. For this reason, the fall prevention means 5 is necessary in order that the outer side of the mask is fixed to the medicine holding part 3 more closely.

Furthermore, the fastener 6 or the latching tool for maintaining the state pinched | interposed into the mask storage case mentioned above is attached. Thereby, the case body folded in half can be stored compactly without opening.

Then, the mask 7 is moved around the center of the case body 1 and folded in half so as to be sandwiched. As shown in FIG. 2, two protrusions 2 for the mask ear-hanging portion 10 are overlapped, and when it is stopped by the tilting fastener 6, it becomes compact and can be easily stored in the back or pocket. When reusing the mask 7, remove the fastener 6, open it to the left and right with rubber, hold the adhesive stitching 4 on the outside of the case body 1, press the inside of the mask against the face, adjust the position, and then adjust the left and right ears. Put the rubber on. Then the case goes away. As a result, the mask is put on without directly touching the mask.
