Description

  The present invention relates to a preparation storage case that can store a preparation for microscopic observation in which a thin slice of a biological specimen such as a pathological tissue is fixed. In particular, the present invention relates not only to a lateral stress due to a normal earthquake but also to a vertical earthquake due to a direct earthquake. Even if stress is applied, the housing part can be prevented from popping out and falling, and when the preparation in the housing part is taken out, the housing part can be easily pulled out, which is highly safe and easy to use. It relates to the preparation storage case.

  Biological tissues such as pathological tissues are usually examined by placing the tissue excised from the affected area of a patient in a container having a large number of through holes called cassettes, treating with chemicals with formalin solution, etc., and then calling it an embedding tray. After placing the chemical-treated tissue in the container to be placed, the cassette was placed on the embedding tray, the molten paraffin was allowed to flow into the embedding tray from above the cassette, and the tissue was embedded outside the bottom of the cassette It is a so-called embedding block to which a paraffin block is attached. This embedding block is fixed on a device called a microtome with a paraffin block that embeds the tissue facing up, then sliced, the cut tissue piece is placed on a slide glass, stained, and covered with a cover glass. The prepared preparation is observed with a microscope.

  The prepared slide is stored in a prepared case so that it can be used for re-examination. When it is desired to observe the pathological tissue again, a predetermined preparation is taken out from the preparation case and observed with a microscope.

As an organizing case for organizing samples such as embedding blocks and slide glasses (preparations), it contains an embedding block storage section that accommodates a large number of embedding blocks divided vertically and horizontally and accommodates slide glasses. An arrangement case has been proposed in which a slide glass storage unit is provided, and the arrangement of the slide glass by the slide glass storage unit corresponds to the arrangement of the embedded blocks by the embedded block storage unit (Patent Document 1).

  However, in the rearrangement case described in Patent Document 1, the target embedding block or preparation is easily taken out, but the embedding block or preparation is stored in a laid state. The required space per sheet becomes quite large. Moreover, although a large amount of used embedding blocks and used preparations are generated, the frequency of these reexaminations is not so high, resulting in the inconvenience that a large storage space is required for samples that are used infrequently.

  Moreover, since the rack described in Non-Patent Document 1 stores preparations in an upright position, a large amount of preparations can be stored in a small space. However, since the spring is interposed between the adjacent preparations, the storage amount of the preparation is reduced, and one or two springs may be skipped to store the preparation. In this case, the preparation storage amount is further reduced. Furthermore, a hook for hooking a finger when pulling out is projected downward on the front of the drawer, so there is a possibility that clothes will be hooked on this hook. There is a problem that they cannot be stored compactly side by side without a gap.

  Furthermore, in both cases of Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1, when a lateral stress is applied due to an earthquake or the like, the stored preparation or embedded block is heavy, so the drawer storing these is vigorous. Not only does it jump out of the case and fall to spoil precious specimens, but there is a risk of serious injury if the popped out drawer hits the viewer.

  Furthermore, although the preparation storage case described in the cited document 2 does not pop out even in the case of a roll due to a normal earthquake or the like, for example, in the case of an earthquake with a vertical motion such as a direct earthquake, In the case of shaking, the abutting of the stopper piece a and the stopper piece b may come off, and the effect may not be fully exhibited.

  In view of such circumstances, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, can store a large amount of preparations in a small space, and the drawer does not unexpectedly jump out and fall even in the case of a severe earthquake with vertical shaking, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a preparation storage case with excellent properties.

  In order to achieve the above object, a first feature of the present invention is that a rectangular parallelepiped housing portion having an open top is inserted into a rectangular parallelepiped outer frame portion having an opening on one side. A drawer-type preparation storage case, wherein the accommodation portion is provided with a pitching prevention portion A, and a fixed locking piece projects from the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the accommodation portion, and the pitching prevention portion B is provided on the outer frame portion. And a movable locking piece is provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion, and an operation mechanism is provided on the outer frame portion for moving the movable locking piece between a locked position and an open position. The preparation storage case is located at the position where the pitching prevention part A and the pitching prevention part B abut when the fixed locking piece of the storage part is in a position where it can engage with the movable locking piece.

  The second feature of the present invention is the above-described preparation storage case in which the pitching prevention portion A is the upper surface of the front plate of the housing portion and the pitching prevention portion B is the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening on the side surface of the outer frame portion. Content.

  A third feature of the present invention is that a stopper piece a projects from the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the housing portion, and the stopper piece a has a surface on the front side in the pulling direction that is substantially perpendicular to the bottom surface of the housing portion. The back surface in the direction is an inclined surface whose angle is shallow with respect to the bottom surface of the housing portion, and the top surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion is provided with a substantially vertical surface that can collide with a substantially vertical surface on the front side in the pulling direction of the stopper piece a. The preparation storage case described above is provided with a stopper piece b projecting therefrom.

  A fourth feature of the present invention is that a rear end indicating portion is provided near the rear end on the bottom plate lower surface side of the housing portion, and a front edge indicating portion is provided near the front edge on the bottom plate upper surface side of the outer frame portion. The above-described preparation storage case is configured such that the storage portion sinks when the storage portion is pulled forward and the rear end indicating portion contacts the front edge indicating portion.

  A fifth feature of the present invention is that a rear end indicating portion is provided near the rear end on the bottom plate lower surface side of the housing portion, and a front edge indicating portion is provided near the front edge on the bottom plate upper surface side of the outer frame portion. The above-described preparation storage case is configured such that the storage portion is lifted when the storage portion is pulled forward and the rear end indicating portion comes into contact with the front edge indicating portion.

  The preparation storage case according to the present invention prevents the vertical movement of the storage part by the fixed locking piece and the movable locking piece, and also prevents the pitching prevention part B and the pitching prevention part when the movable locking piece is in the locking position. Since A collides and the vertical movement is prevented, the vertical movement is prevented before and after the accommodating portion. As a result, for example, in the case of not only a normal earthquake roll but also a vertical shake such as a direct earthquake, the housing portion does not unexpectedly jump out of the outer frame portion and is safe.

  If the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening on the side of the outer frame portion is the vertical shake prevention portion B and the upper surface of the front plate of the storage portion is the vertical shake prevention portion A, the storage portion is moved up and down when the storage portion is slightly pulled out. This makes it possible to handle the accommodating portion.

  If a stopper piece a having a predetermined shape protrudes from the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the housing portion and a stopper piece b having a predetermined shape protrudes from the top surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion, the movable locking piece and the fixed locking piece are locked. Even when a lateral stress is unexpectedly applied when there is not, it is possible to prevent the housing portion from popping out.

A rear end indicating portion is provided near the rear end of the accommodating portion, a front edge indicating portion is provided near the front edge of the outer frame portion, and the accommodating portion is pulled forward and the rear end indicating portion abuts on the front edge indicating portion. Sometimes, if the container is configured to sink, the feeling of sinking is transmitted to the finger of the user who has the handle, this feeling acts as an alarm, and if the user pulls further, the container will fall Knowing that there is a danger, you can put your hand under the container so that it does not fall. As a result, an accident that causes the container to fall due to excessive pulling is prevented in advance, and safety is improved.
In addition, when the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening on the side of the outer frame portion is the pitching prevention portion B and the upper surface of the front plate of the housing portion is the pitching prevention portion A, the rear end indicating portion becomes the leading edge indicating portion. Even if it is configured so that the housing portion is lifted when it comes into contact, an accident that causes the housing portion to fall due to excessive pulling can be prevented in the same manner as described above.

The preparation storage case of the present invention includes a rectangular parallelepiped housing portion 2 having an opening on the upper side and a rectangular parallelepiped outer frame portion 3 having an opening on one side as shown in FIGS. A slide-type preparation storage case 1 inserted into the storage portion, wherein the storage portion is provided with a pitching prevention portion A: 2b, and a fixed locking piece projects from the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the storage portion,
The outer frame portion is provided with a pitching prevention portion B: 3b, and a movable locking piece 3a is provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3,
The outer frame 3 is provided with an operation mechanism 3c for moving the movable locking piece 3a between a locking position and an opening position, and the fixed locking piece 2a of the housing portion 2 is engaged with the movable locking piece 3a. When in a position where it is possible, the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b are in a position where they meet.

The outer frame portion 3 used in the present invention is a rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped member that can accommodate the accommodating portion 2 in which the preparation is accommodated. The outer frame part 3 is provided with an opening 3d on one side, and as shown in FIG. 1, the housing part 2 can be pulled out and put out from the opening 3d.
The accommodating portion 2 is a rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped member that can accommodate a preparation. The housing part 2 is opened at the top, and the preparation can be compactly housed from the opening.
In addition, since the preparation is generally quite small and has a large number, in order to make it easy to organize and store them, normally, several elongated storage portions 2 are stored in one outer frame portion 3, The housing portion 2 is provided with individual pulling direction restricting means so that the housing portion 2 can be pulled out in the correct direction.
In the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the two rails 3 f provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3 and the both edges of the lower surface of the bottom plate of the housing portion 2 are provided as the drawing direction restricting means. The guide rib 2e is used to prevent sideways slipping of the housing portion 2, and the housing portion 2 can be reliably inserted and removed in the front-rear direction.

In the present invention, a fixed locking piece 2 a protrudes from the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the housing portion 2, and a movable locking piece 3 a is provided on the top surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3. An operation mechanism 3c is provided for moving the stop piece 3a between the locking position and the release position.
In the first embodiment, the fixed locking piece 2a is a notch cut in the guide rib 2e, and the movable locking piece 3a is a tongue piece that slides in a direction perpendicular to the pulling-out direction of the housing portion 2, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the movable locking piece 3a is slid to the front of the fixed locking piece 2a to be locked with the fixed locking piece 2a. However, there is no particular limitation as long as the structure can lock the receiving portion 2 by engaging the fixed locking piece 2a and the movable locking piece 3a when the movable locking piece 3a is in the locking position. 10 (a) and 10 (b), the movable locking piece 3a may move up and down, or the movable locking piece 3a may rotate as shown in FIG. 18 (b). Further, the fixed locking piece may be a protruding piece or the like provided separately from the guide rib 2e.
Further, in the first embodiment, the operation mechanism 3c is an elongated plate-like member 3c1 provided with a predetermined number of movable locking pieces 3a standing upright, and is laterally provided from the elongated plate-like member 3c1 and protrudes from the front side of the outer frame portion 3. The operating mechanism 3c according to the third embodiment, which is the knob 3c2, rotates the elongated rod-like member 3c6 on which the movable locking piece 3a is projected by turning a lever 3c5 provided on the side wall of the outer frame 3. Although it is comprised, if it is the structure which moves all the movable latching pieces 3a simultaneously or each separately between a latching position and an open position, it will not specifically limit.

  In order to prevent the operating mechanism 3c from moving unexpectedly and releasing the locked state of the housing portion 2, a temporary fixing structure 3c4 may be provided. The temporary fixing structure 3c4 is not particularly limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, a recess is provided at the end of the slit 3c3 for projecting the knob 3c2 from the front surface of the outer frame 3, and the knob 3c2 is provided. An example is a configuration in which the knob 3c2 is dropped into the recess by urging with a spring or the like, and the knob 3c2 is lifted against the urging force of the spring or the like when the operation mechanism 3c is moved. Alternatively, it is possible to provide a structure in which concavities and convexities to be fitted to each other are provided in the vicinity of the slit 3c3 and the back side of the knob 3c2, and the side plate of the outer frame 3 and the knob 3c2 are elastically deformed when the operation mechanism 3c is moved.

In the present invention, when the fixed locking piece 2a is in a position where it engages with the movable locking piece 3a, the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b are in a position where they meet. To do.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, in the embodiment, the pitching prevention part A: 2 b is the upper surface of the front plate 2 d of the housing part 2, and the pitching prevention part B: 3 b is the outer frame part 3. Although it is the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening 3d, if the fixed locking piece 2a and the movable locking piece 3a are engaged, the forward and backward movement of the fixed locking piece 2a and the movable locking piece 3a is prevented. At this time, if the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b are in a position where they meet, the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: It is possible to prevent the fixed locking piece 2a and the movable locking piece 3a from being disengaged by the collision of the 3b and preventing the vertical movement.
As in the first embodiment, the upper surface of the front plate 2d of the housing portion 2 is set as the pitching prevention portion A: 2b, and the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening 3d of the outer frame portion 3 is set as the pitching prevention portion B: 3b. When the housing part 2 is slightly pulled out, the pitching prevention part A and the pitching prevention part B do not come into contact with each other, and it becomes easy to lift the housing part 2 as necessary, so that it becomes easy to handle.

In addition, when the upper surface of the front plate 2d of the housing portion 2 is set as the vertical shake prevention portion A: 2b and the lower surface of the upper edge of the opening 3d of the outer frame portion 3 is set as the vertical shake prevention portion B: 3b, it prepares for lateral stress. Further safety measures can be taken.
That is, in the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 to 11, an earthquake or the like using the stopper piece a: 2 c provided on the lower surface of the housing portion 2 and the stopper piece b: 3 e provided on the outer frame portion 3. Thus, even when a lateral stress is applied to the housing portion 2, the housing portion 2 is prevented from falling off.
For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the stopper piece a: 2c has a surface on the near side in the pulling direction of the housing portion 2 as a substantially vertical surface 2c1 with respect to the bottom surface of the housing portion 2, and a surface on the far side in the pulling direction. The inclined surface 2c2 has a shallow angle with respect to the bottom surface of the housing portion 2.

The position of the substantially vertical surface 3e1 of the stopper piece a: 2c and the stopper piece b: 3e is the same as that of the substantially vertical surface 2c1 of the stopper piece a: 2c when the accommodating portion 2 is accommodated to the back of the outer frame portion 3. The stopper piece b: 3e faces the substantially vertical surface 3e1, and when a stress is applied to the accommodating portion 2 from the front side in the pull-out direction, the stopper piece b moves slightly and moves to a substantially vertical surface 2c1. Although it will not specifically limit as long as it arrange | positions so that 3e1 may collide, It is preferable at the point with the big effect which prevents the protrusion of the accommodating part 2 to arrange | position in the drawer direction near side of the outer frame part 3 and the accommodating part 2. .
In the case of the second embodiment, the stopper pieces a: 2c are provided on both sides of the accommodating portion 2 on the front side in the pulling direction, and the stopper pieces b: 3e are provided on the rails 3f intermittently so that the drawing direction front side is provided. An example in which the rear side surface of the short rail is used as the substantially vertical surface 3e1 is shown.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 12, the stopper piece a: 2c of the storage portion 2 is provided at a position that does not overlap the rail 3f, and the outer side of the stopper piece a: 2c when the storage portion 2 is pulled out is blocked. The stopper piece b: 3e of the frame part 3 may be provided.
The pull-out length L1 when the substantially vertical surface 2c1 of the stopper piece a: 2c and the substantially vertical surface 3e1 of the stopper piece b: 3e abut is not particularly limited. If it is too long, the center of gravity of the entire preparation storage case 1 may come off and fall together with the case 1. Therefore, although it depends on the size of the preparation storage case 1, it is usually preferred to be about 5 mm to 50 mm (see FIG. 14).

It is preferable to provide a handle for facilitating pulling out of the housing portion 2 on the side plate 2d on the front side of the housing portion 2 in the pulling direction (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the front plate 2d). The shape of the handle is not particularly limited. However, when the stopper pieces a: 2c and the stopper pieces b: 3e are provided to prevent popping out as in the second embodiment, the fingers are inserted and hooked inside the housing portion 2 and pulled. A method of drilling the handle hole 2d1 is preferable.
That is, the estimated insertion length L2 of the finger to be inserted into the handle hole 2d1 is the pull-out length when the substantially vertical surface 2c1 of the stopper piece a: 2c and the substantially vertical surface 3e1 of the stopper piece b: 3e abut each other. When the length is longer than L1, the preparation can be safely put in and out without damaging the preparation when the accommodating portion 2 is pulled out for the reason described later.
For example, when the handle hole 2d1 is generally provided, the container 2 is usually pulled out by inserting the first joint portion of the finger into the handle hole 2d1 and hooking it inside the container 2, but in the case of an adult, Since the length of the fingertip from the first joint is about 15 to 30 mm, the estimated insertion length L2 of the finger to be inserted into the handle hole 2d1 is 15 to 30 mm, and the above-described extraction length L1 is set to about 5 to 10 mm in accordance with this. Is preferable.

A method of using the preparation storage case 1 in which the stopper pieces a: 2c and the stopper pieces b: 3e are provided to prevent the storage portion 2 from popping out as in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the preparation storage case 1 of the present invention, the storage portion 2 is usually inserted and stored to the back of the outer frame portion 3 as shown in FIG. When a lateral stress is unexpectedly applied to the housing part 2 due to a normal earthquake or the like, the housing part 2 pops out by the length L1. However, there is an outside of the substantially vertical surface 2c1 of the stopper piece a: 2c of the housing part 2 and the outside. Since the stopper piece b: 3e of the frame portion 3 abuts with the substantially vertical surface 3e1, it is possible to prevent further protrusion.
When taking out the prepared slide stored in the storage section, as shown in FIG. 13 (a), first, the movable locking piece 3a is moved to the open position, and as shown in FIG. 13 (b), the storage section 2 Is slightly pulled out so that the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b do not collide with each other, and as shown in FIG. 13 (c), the front side of the housing part 2 is shown in FIG. 13 (b). If the slope 2c2 of the stopper piece a: 2c gets over the stopper piece b: 3e by lifting up from this state, the accommodating part 2 can be pulled out to the end as shown in FIG. 13 (d).

In this case, when the pull-out length L1 is long as shown in FIG. 14A, when the front side of the storage portion 2 is lifted to pull out the storage portion 2, it is lifted too much as shown in FIG. Thus, the slide housed in the housing portion 2 may collide with the upper edge of the opening 3d of the outer frame portion 3 and be damaged.
In order to avoid this, as shown in FIG. 15A, the estimated insertion length L2 of the finger F inserted into the handle hole 2d1 may be made longer than the pull-out length L1. In this case, when the front side of the housing part 2 is lifted, the tip of the finger F touches the upper edge of the opening 3d of the outer frame part 3 as shown in FIG. The collision between the slide and the upper edge of the opening 3d can be prevented, and the slide can be prevented from being damaged.

  Further, when the accommodating portion 2 is inserted and accommodated in the outer frame portion 3, the inclined surface 2c2 of the stopper piece a: 2c of the accommodating portion 2 is simply slid and pushed on the stopper piece b: 3e of the outer frame portion 3. Housed in the outer frame 3.

  In the present invention, by providing the rear end indicating portion 2j at the rear end of the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the accommodating portion 2, and by providing the front edge indicating portion 3g in the vicinity of the front edge of the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3, Before the container 2 completely falls out of the outer frame part 3, the container part 2 is lifted or sinks, the feeling is transmitted to the user's finger as an alarm, and the drawer of the container part 2 is stopped before the container part 2 falls off, Alternatively, it is possible to place a hand under the accommodating portion 2. (However, depending on the positions of the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b, it may be difficult to issue an alarm of a type that lifts the housing part 2).

Specifically, as in the fourth embodiment shown in FIGS. 16 to 19, for example, the rear end indicating portion 2 j is a protrusion that hangs from the rear end of the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the accommodating portion 2, and the front edge indicating The part 3g is a projection that stands up from the vicinity of the front edge of the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame part 3. For example, the sum of the protrusion height H1 (for example, 2 mm) of the protrusion of the rear end indicating portion 2j and the protrusion height H2 (for example, 3 mm) of the protrusion of the front edge indicating portion 3g is the bottom plate of the housing portion 2 and the outer frame portion 3. The distance H3 (for example, 4 mm) is larger (in the above example, 2 + 3 = 5 mm). In the example shown in the fourth embodiment, the first and second end indicating units 2j and 3g are provided as the rear end indicating unit 2j and the front end indicating unit 3g, respectively. The second is described later.
In this way, as shown in FIG. 20A, the accommodating portion 2 can be smoothly pulled out before the rear end indicating portion 2j and the leading edge indicating portion 3g come into contact with each other, but FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, if the rear end indicating portion 2j and the leading edge indicating portion 3g come into contact with each other, the trailing end indicating portion 2j gets over the front edge indicating portion 3g, so that the accommodating portion 2 is lifted by a certain height (in the above example, H1 + H2−H3 = 2 + 3−4 = 1 mm), since this touch is transmitted to the user's finger, this is an alarm, and the user knows that there is a risk of dropping if the container 2 is pulled further.

  Further, a gap 4 is provided between the rear end of the housing portion 2 and the rear end indicating portion 2j and / or between the front edge of the outer frame portion 3 and the front edge indicating portion 3g (in FIG. Between the front edge of the frame portion 3 and the front edge indicating portion 3g (first front edge indicating portion 3g1) and between the rear end of the receiving portion 2 and the second rear end indicating portion 2j2, the receiving portion 2 is lifted, Alternatively, the housing part 2 does not fall off the outer frame part 3 immediately after sinking, but a time delay is given, and a necessary measure can be taken such as putting a hand under the housing part 2 during this time. .

  It is sufficient to provide one protrusion as each of the rear end instructing unit 2j and the front end instructing unit 3g. However, in order to issue a stronger alarm, either the rear end instructing unit 2j or the front edge instructing unit 3g, or Two or more of both can be provided continuously, and in the fourth embodiment, the leading edge indicating portion 3g has a shape in which three protrusions are provided continuously. In this case, the user feels not only a feeling that the storage unit 2 is lifted or sinks, but also a feeling that vibrates rattlingly, and feels as a stronger alarm. As shown in FIG. 21, such an effect can also be obtained by forming a shape in which the front edge indicating portion 3g is one and the three rear end indicating portions 2j are connected in series.

  In Example 4, the protrusions used as the rear end indicating portion 2j and the leading edge indicating portion 3g are both horizontally long with respect to the pulling direction of the accommodating portion 2, but the shape of the protrusion is not limited thereto, For example, a hemispherical protrusion may be provided. In addition, it is preferable that the front and rear surfaces of the housing portion of these protrusions are inclined so that the rear end instructing portion 2j can easily get over the front edge instructing portion 3g.

The configuration in which both the rear end instructing portion 2j and the leading edge instructing portion 3g are projections has been described above, but the same effect can be obtained even if either the rear end instructing portion 2j or the front edge instructing portion 3g is recessed. It is done. In addition, if it makes a hollow, regardless of the position of the pitching prevention part A: 2b and the pitching prevention part B: 3b, the rear end instruction | indication part 2j and the front edge instruction | indication part 3g can be provided in any location.
For example, as shown in FIG. 22 (a), the rear end indicating portion 2j is a protrusion suspended from the rear end of the bottom surface of the bottom plate of the accommodating portion 2, and the front edge indicating portion 3g is the front edge of the top surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion. If the rear end indicating portion 2j serves as a space holding projection for the bottom plate of the housing portion and the bottom plate of the outer frame portion, the rear end indicating portion 2j and the front edge indicating portion 3g are in contact with each other. The housing portion 2 can be smoothly pulled out before contacting, but as shown in FIG. 22B, if the rear end indicating portion 2j and the front edge indicating portion 3g come into contact with each other, the rear end indicating portion 2j is It falls into the instruction part 3g, and this causes the container part 2 to sink, and this touch is an alarm and is transmitted to the user's finger. Therefore, if the user pulls the container part 2 further, there is a risk of dropping. know.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 23 (a), the rear end indicating portion 2j is a recess formed in the lower surface of the bottom plate of the accommodating portion 2, and the front edge indicating portion 3g is erected from the upper surface of the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3. If the leading edge indicating portion 3g serves as a protrusion for maintaining the distance between the bottom plate of the housing portion 2 and the bottom plate of the outer frame portion 3, the rear end indicating portion 2j and the leading edge indicating portion 3g are in contact with each other. Can smoothly pull out the accommodating portion 2, but as shown in FIG. 23 (b), if the rear end instructing portion 2j and the front edge instructing portion 3g come into contact with each other, the front edge is placed inside the rear end instructing portion 2j. The tip of the instruction part 3g enters, and the container part 2 sinks, and this touch is transmitted to the user's finger as an alarm. Therefore, if the user pulls the container part 2 further, there is a risk of dropping. know.

  As shown in FIGS. 22 and 23, either one of the rear end instructing portion 2j and the front edge instructing portion 3g also serves as a spacing holding projection, and even when the other is a depression, both are projections. Similarly to the case, either one or both of the rear end instruction part 2j and the front edge instruction part 3g may be provided so that the housing part 2 vibrates, or the rear end instruction part 2j and the front edge instruction part 3g. Can be provided obliquely, or provided in two rows on the left and right sides, and the timing at which the rear end indicating portion 2j and the front edge indicating portion 3g abut on the left and right can be shifted.

As described above, the example in which the container 2 is pulled in the horizontal direction when the container 2 is pulled out has been described. Hereinafter, an example in which the container 2 is pulled obliquely upward or obliquely downward will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 24 (a) and 24 (b), when the rear end instructing part 2j is provided at the rear end of the housing part 2, the rear end instructing part 2j does not indicate the front edge even if the housing part 2 is pulled obliquely upward. Since it collides with the part 3g and gets over the leading edge indicating part 3g, the accommodating part 2 is lifted and acts as an alarm.
However, as shown in FIG. 25 (a), when the accommodating portion 2 is pulled obliquely downward, the rear end of the accommodating portion 2 is lifted before colliding with the front edge indicating portion 3g, and the accommodating portion 2 is pulled as it is. However, as shown in FIG. 25B, there is a risk that the rear end instructing section 2j passes over the front edge instructing section 3g and does not act as an alarm.
Thus, when it is anticipated that the accommodating part 2 is pulled diagonally downward, as shown to Fig.26 (a), on the front edge of the outer frame part 3, the front edge instruction | indication part 3g (2nd front edge instruction | indication) In addition to providing the portion 3g2), the gap portion 4 is provided between the rear end of the accommodating portion 2 and the rear end indicating portion 2j (second rear end indicating portion 2j2). However, in this case, when the accommodating portion 2 is pulled obliquely upward, the rear end of the accommodating portion 2 floats before colliding with the front edge indicating portion 3g, and the rear end indicating portion 2j moves over the front edge indicating portion 3g. There is a danger of passing and not acting as an alarm.
Accordingly, when there is a possibility of pulling the housing part 2 diagonally upward and diagonally downward, for example, as shown in FIGS. 19 (a) and 19 (b), the second part provided at the rear end of the housing part 2 is used. 1 When using the rear end indicating portion 2j1 and the first front edge indicating portion 3g1 provided in the vicinity of the front edge of the outer frame portion 3 via the gap portion 4, even when the accommodating portion 2 is pulled obliquely upward A second rear end indicating portion 2j2 provided in the vicinity of the rear end of the accommodating portion 2 via the gap portion 4 and a second front end provided at the front edge of the outer frame portion 3 so as to reliably generate an alarm. By using the edge indicating portion 3g2, it is only necessary to ensure that an alarm is generated even when the housing portion 2 is pulled obliquely downward.
By configuring in this way, even if the accommodating portion 2 is pulled in any of the horizontal direction, obliquely upward, and obliquely downward directions, an alarm is surely issued and the accommodating portion 2 can be pulled out more safely.

The second rear end instructing portion 2j2 in the present embodiment is a notch provided in the guide rib 2e, and is provided from the rear end of the accommodating portion 2 through the gap portion 4. In addition, the second front edge indicating portion 3g2 in the present embodiment is provided on the front edge of the outer frame portion 3, and is a protrusion that is cut out from the portion immediately behind the front edge and protruded by embossing.
When the accommodating portion 2 is pulled obliquely downward, as shown in FIG. 26 (a), the protrusion as the second front edge indicating portion 3g2 enters the notch as the second rear end indicating portion 2j2, thereby The accommodating part 2 sinks for a moment and functions as an alarm.

In the present invention, even if the container 2 is pulled obliquely downward by providing a fall-preventing part having substantially the same height as the opening on the side surface of the outer frame part at the rear end of the container 2, 2 can be prevented from falling.
That is, when the housing part 2 is pulled obliquely, the front part of the housing part 2 is lowered and becomes inclined, and slips between the bottom plate of the housing part 2 and the front edge of the outer frame part 3, and further the contents of the housing part 2. Although the weight of the object is added, the container 2 may be pulled out with a momentum beyond the user's expectation. In such a case, the fall prevention portion 2f having the same height as the opening 3d is provided. Then, as shown in FIG. 26 (b), since the upper end of the fall prevention part 2f abuts on the upper end of the opening 3d, the storage part 2 is prevented from popping out.
In Example 4, the front and rear side walls of the housing part 2 have the same height as the opening 3d, the left and right side walls are lower than that, and the rear side walls are above the upper ends of the left and right side walls. Is used as the fall prevention portion 2f.

When the handle hole 2d1 is provided, it is preferable to cover the dust-proof cover 2d2 over the handle hole 2d1 in order to prevent dust and dirt from entering through the handle hole 2d1.
The shape and structure of the dust cover are not particularly limited as long as it covers the handle hole 2d1 and closes the handle hole 2d1, but for example, as shown in FIG. A dust-proof cover 2d2 formed by sticking a sheet made of a flexible member that has been cut so as to be divided into two is covered with the handle hole 2d1, and when the finger is inserted, the dust-proof cover 2d2 is pushed inward, When the finger is pulled out, the pushed dust cover is returned to its original state and the handle hole 2d1 is closed, which is convenient because the dust cover can be automatically opened and closed. Further, as shown in FIG. 28, a dustproof cover 2d2 pivotally attached above the handle hole 3b is used, and when the housing portion 2 is pulled out, the dustproof cover 2d2 is rotated upward to put a finger into the handle hole 2d1. You may make it insert.

27 and 28, an example in which the dustproof cover 2d2 is provided on the outer surface side of the front plate 2d is described. However, as shown in FIGS. 29 and 30, a dustproof cover 2d2 may be provided on the inner surface side of the front plate 2d. In this example, the dustproof cover 2d2 is suspended from the vicinity of the upper edge of the opening 3d of the outer frame 3, and is pivotally attached to the outer frame 3 near the upper end thereof. The dustproof cover 2d2 is biased outward by an elastic mechanism (not shown) such as a spring, and the dustproof cover 2d2 is placed in the front plate 2d in a state in which the storage part 2 is stored in the outer frame part 3. It is in a state of being pressed to the inner surface side (see FIG. 30 (a)), and intrusion of dust, dust or the like is prevented.
In such a preparation storage case 1, if the dust cover 2d2 is pushed in with the finger F from the handle hole 2d1, the dust cover 2d2 is pushed up against the pressing force of the elastic mechanism and the finger F can be inserted (FIG. 30 ( b)).

  Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 31A and 31B, an elastic resin sheet (polypropylene having a thickness of about 0.3 mm, PET, or the like) covered on the back side of the handle hole 2d1 may be used as the dustproof cover 2d2. it can. In this example, since only the lower side of the dustproof cover 2d2 is fixed with an adhesive or the like, the dustproof cover 2d2 bends inward when a finger is inserted into the handle hole 2d1, and returns to its original shape when the finger is extracted. The handle hole 2d1 is closed to prevent intrusion of dust and dirt.

Depending on the shape and size of the storage section 2, a vertical partition 2g and a horizontal partition 2h are provided for organizing the preparation as shown in FIGS. 32 (a) and 32 (b). be able to. In addition, the vertical partition 2g in this example is extended in the length direction of the accommodating portion 2, and the interval between the vertical partition 2g and the side wall is slightly wider than the width of the preparation, and the preparation is raised. And the preparation can be arranged with no gaps along the vertical partition 2g and the side wall.
Further, the horizontal partition 2h in this example is provided in a direction orthogonal to the vertical partition 2g, and the inside of the accommodating portion 2 is divided, and this preparation is set up when the number of the prepared portions in the accommodating portion 2 is small. It can be used as a support for storing in a state. However, when there are few kinds of preparations to be stored and it is not necessary to divide them finely or when the number of sheets is large, the horizontal partition 2h is unnecessary, so it is preferable to be able to remove it.

The protrusion 2i may be provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate of the accommodating portion 2, and the preparation may be placed on the protrusion. In this case, for example, even when an adhesive for fixing the cover glass on the slide glass hangs down and accumulates on the bottom surface of the storage portion 2, it is possible to prevent a trouble that the preparation is adhered to the storage portion 2. it can.
The shape of the ridge 2i is not particularly limited. However, as shown in FIGS. 32 (a) and 32 (b), the shape is simple and inexpensive if the two straight lines extending in the preparation arrangement direction are used. It is preferable because it can be manufactured easily and is easy to clean.

  As described above, according to the preparation storage case of the present invention, even if not only the lateral stress due to a normal earthquake or the like but also the vertical stress due to a direct earthquake or the like, the accommodating portion pops out and falls. In addition, when the preparation in the storage portion is taken out, the storage portion can be easily pulled out, which is useful as a preparation storage case that is highly safe and easy to use.
