The contents of the present embodiment are applied to a portion to be applied (not shown), and are not particularly limited, but examples thereof include granular and powdery (powdered) contents.

The peripheral wall portion 11 of the container main body 2 is formed to be thicker than the bottom wall portion 10, and a portion protruding upward from the upper end portion thereof is the mouth portion 12. The mouth portion 12 of the container body 2 has a first mouth portion 12A having an outer diameter smaller than that of the peripheral wall portion 11, and an outer diameter further reduced than that of the first mouth portion 12A, and more than the first mouth portion 12A. A second mouth portion 12B protruding upward.
The mouth 12 of the container body 2 has an outer diameter reduced in two stages by the first mouth 12A and the second mouth 12B.

  A plurality of first vertical ribs 13 projecting outward in the radial direction are formed on the outer peripheral surface on the lower end side of the second mouth portion 12B at intervals in the circumferential direction. In the example shown in the drawing, the first vertical rib 13 is formed in a state of being connected to the first opening 12A.

The discharge member 3 is attached to the mouth 12 of the container body 2, specifically, the first mouth 12A so as to be rotatable around the container axis O.
The discharge member 3 is connected to the rotary cylinder 20 rotatably attached to the first mouth portion 12A of the container body 2 and an annular shape that is connected to the upper end of the rotary cylinder 20 and protrudes radially inward. The top wall portion 21, the first intermediate tube 22 projecting downward from the radially inner end of the top wall portion 21, and the radially inner side of the first intermediate tube 22, the inside being the discharge hole 7 and an annular support wall 24 that supports the discharge cylinder 23 by connecting the lower end of the discharge cylinder 23 and the lower end of the first intermediate cylinder 22.

  The rotary cylinder 20 is formed so as to surround the first mouth portion 12A of the container body 2 from the outside in the radial direction, and is rotatably attached to the first mouth portion 12A in a state where the lower end portion is prevented from coming off upward. . The upper end portion of the rotating cylinder 20 protrudes upward from the second mouth portion 12B. A plurality of second vertical ribs 25 protruding outward in the radial direction are formed on the outer peripheral surface on the lower end side of the rotating cylinder 20 at intervals in the circumferential direction.

  The top wall portion 21 is connected to the upper end portion of the rotary cylinder 20 protruding upward from the second mouth portion 12B, and is disposed at a position covering the second mouth portion 12B of the container body 2 from above. A part of the top wall portion 21 is in contact with a flange portion 32 (described later) of the opening / closing member 4, and the flange portion 32 is sandwiched between the opening edge of the second mouth portion 12B. A stepped portion 26 that is recessed downward is formed in an annular shape at the radially outer edge portion of the top wall portion 21.

Further, the top wall portion 21 is formed with a second intermediate tube 27 so as to protrude downward from a portion located radially outside of the first intermediate tube 22, and the second wall of the container body 2. A positioning cylinder 28 is formed that protrudes upward from a portion located directly above the two-portion portion 12B.
Note that the lower end portion of the second intermediate cylinder 27 is located above the lower end portion of the first intermediate cylinder 22 and is located above the opening edge of the second mouth portion 12B of the container body 2.

The lower end portion of the first intermediate cylinder 22 is located below the opening edge of the second mouth portion 12 </ b> B of the container body 2. On the other hand, the lower end portion of the discharge cylinder 23 is located above the lower end portion of the first intermediate cylinder 22. Therefore, the support wall 24 is gradually inclined upward from the connecting portion with the lower end portion of the first intermediate cylinder 22 toward the connecting portion with the lower end portion of the discharge cylinder 23.
Note that the upper end portion of the discharge cylinder 23 is located above the top wall portion 21.

  The opening / closing member 4 includes an outer mounting cylinder 30 mounted on the second opening 12B of the container body 2, an inner mounting cylinder 31 fitted inside the second opening 12B of the container body 2, and an outer mounting cylinder. The upper end portion of 30 and the upper end portion of the inner mounting cylinder 31 are connected to each other, and the flange portion 32 that overlaps the opening edge of the second mouth portion 12B is positioned on the radially inner side of the inner mounting cylinder 31 and is discharged. A guide tube 33 disposed between the first intermediate tube 22 and the second intermediate tube 27 of the member 3, and an annular connecting wall 34 that connects the lower end of the guide tube 33 and the lower end of the inner mounting tube 31. And a connecting piece 35 for connecting the stopper portion 8 and the stopper portion 8 to the guide tube 33.

The outer mounting cylinder 30 is located between the second opening 12B and the rotating cylinder 20 of the discharge member 3, and is mounted to the second opening 12B by undercut fitting. However, it is not limited to undercut fitting.
The outer mounting cylinder 30 is formed with first locking ribs 36 that are locked in the circumferential direction with respect to the first vertical ribs 13 formed in the second mouth portion 12B. . Accordingly, the outer mounting cylinder 30 is mounted on the second mouth portion 12B while being prevented from rotating in the circumferential direction.

  As described above, the guide tube 33 is disposed between the first intermediate tube 22 and the second intermediate tube 27 of the discharge member 3, and the outer peripheral surface of the first intermediate tube 22 and the second intermediate tube 27. It is in sliding contact with or close to the peripheral surface. Thereby, the guide cylinder 33 plays a role of supporting the discharge member 3 from below while stably guiding the rotation of the discharge member 3 via the first intermediate cylinder 22 and the second intermediate cylinder 27.

The plug portion 8 is formed in a top tube shape that swells upward in a dome shape, and is fitted in the discharge hole 7 so as to be detachable from below the discharge tube 23. At this time, the upper half of the plug portion 8 from the substantially middle portion in the container axis O direction is fitted into the discharge hole 7, and the lower end portion of the plug portion 8 is below the lower end portion of the discharge cylinder 23. positioned.
The lower end portion of the plug portion 8 is located above the lower end portion of the guide tube 33 and the lower end portion of the first intermediate tube 22 in the discharge member 3.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the connecting piece 35 is a strip-like piece formed so as to be elastically deformable. The radially inner end portion 35a is connected to the lower end portion of the plug portion 8, and the radially outer end portion 35b. Is connected to the lower end of the guide tube 33. Therefore, the connecting piece 35 supports the plug portion 8 in a cantilever manner with the radially outer end portion 35b as a fulcrum.
The connecting piece 35 gradually inclines upward from the radially outer end portion 35b, which is a connecting portion with the guide cylinder 33, toward the radially inner end portion 35a, which is a connecting portion with the plug portion 8. ing. Note that a plurality of the connecting pieces 35 may be arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction, but in the illustrated example, only one is described as an example.

  Further, as described above, since the lower end portion of the plug portion 8 is located below the lower end portion of the discharge cylinder 23, a space is formed between the connecting piece 35 and the support wall 24 of the discharge member 3. ing. And the pressing part 40 is formed in this space.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the pressing portion 40 is formed so as to protrude downward from the support wall 24 and extend along the circumferential direction. In the illustrated example, the pressing portion 40 is formed in a portion of the support wall 24 that is slightly displaced radially outward from the connection portion between the support wall 24 and the discharge cylinder 23 and slightly in the circumferential direction. Two are formed so as to be arranged with an interval of. That is, the pressing portion 40 is formed over a range of about 180 degrees around the container axis O, and is formed in a semicircular shape in plan view.

2 and 3, when viewed from a direction orthogonal to the container axis O, the pressing unit 40 moves from one side along the container axis O toward the other side (in the direction of the arrow T1). It is formed so as to extend downward gradually.
The portion with the smallest downward protrusion is called the uppermost end 40a, and the portion with the largest downward protrusion is called the lowest end 40b. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the two pressing portions 40 are arranged such that the lowermost end 40 b of one pressing portion 40 and the uppermost end 40 a of the other pressing portion 40 are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction with a space therebetween. Are arranged as follows. The connecting piece 35 is disposed between the two pressing portions 40 when viewed from the container axis O direction.

Thus, since the two pressing portions 40 and the connecting piece 35 are arranged, as shown in FIG. 4, the discharge member 3 is directed from the other side along the container axis O toward the one side, that is, the pressing portion. By rotating in the direction of arrow T2 (the direction opposite to the direction of arrow T1), which is the rotational direction in which the amount of protrusion 40 gradually increases, the connecting piece 35 can be gradually pushed downward. Accordingly, the connecting piece 35 can be elastically deformed with the radially outer end portion 35b as a fulcrum, and the plug portion 8 can be moved downward relative to the discharge member 3 to be detached from the discharge hole 7. It becomes.
That is, by rotating the discharge member 3, the discharge member 3 and the plug portion 8 can be relatively moved up and down, and the plug portion 8 opens and closes the discharge hole 7 in accordance with the vertical movement. ing.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the application member 5 is a member that applies the contents discharged from the discharge hole 7 to the application portion, and includes an application main body 50 having a plurality of electrostatic flocks 52, and the application main body. And an elastic member 51 that elastically supports 50 from below.

The elastic member 51 is formed of, for example, a foamed urethane resin having excellent rebound resilience. In the illustrated example, the elastic member 51 is formed in an annular shape and is fixed on the top wall portion 21 of the discharge member 3. The elastic member 51 has an outer diameter and an inner diameter that fit between the discharge cylinder 23 and the positioning cylinder 28, and the elastic member 51 has a thickness that protrudes upward from the discharge cylinder 23.
In the illustrated example, the elastic member 51 is sized such that the inner peripheral surface is in contact with the discharge cylinder 23 and the outer peripheral surface is close to the positioning cylinder 28, and the radial positioning is performed by the discharge cylinder 23 and the positioning cylinder 28. Yes.
The elastic member 51 does not need to be formed in an annular shape. For example, the elastic member 51 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is arranged on the top wall portion 21 of the discharge member 3 at a plurality of locations at intervals in the circumferential direction. It doesn't matter.

The application body 50 is formed of an elastomer such as polyurethane resin, and is formed in an annular shape so as to overlap the elastic member 51 and cover the elastic member 51 from above.
The radially inner end of the coating body 50 is bent downward and is attached to the outer peripheral surface on the upper end side of the discharge cylinder 23 by, for example, undercut fitting. The radially outer end of the coating body 50 is bent downward and is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the positioning cylinder 28 by, for example, undercut fitting.

  Thereby, the application main body 50 is mounted on the discharge member 3 in a state in which the application main body 50 is prevented from coming off upward, and covers the elastic member 51 from above. An annular ring member 53 is attached to the step portion 26 of the discharge member 3 to hold down the radially outer end of the coating body 50 from above. Thus, since the application body 50 is mounted on the discharge member 3, the application member 5 rotates together with the discharge member 3 around the container axis O.

  An outer surface of the application body 50 is an application surface portion 50a in which the electrostatic flocking 52 is implanted by electrostatic flocking. The electrostatic flocking 52 may be freely selected according to the type of contents, application application, etc., and examples thereof include nylon hair. In each drawing, the illustration of the electrostatic flocking 52 is simplified in order to make the drawing easy to see.

The overcap 6 surrounds the rotary cylinder 20 of the discharge member 3 from the outside in the radial direction and is formed in a top cylinder shape capable of covering the application member 5 from above. For example, it is mounted by undercut fitting.
At the lower end portion of the overcap 6, second locking ribs 6 a that are locked in the circumferential direction with respect to the second vertical ribs 25 formed on the rotating cylinder 20 are formed at intervals in the circumferential direction. As a result, the overcap 6 is mounted on the rotary cylinder 20 while being prevented from rotating in the circumferential direction. Therefore, it is possible to rotate the discharge member 3 while the overcap 6 is attached.

  However, the rotation prevention of the overcap 6 is not essential and may not be provided. Further, the overcap 6 is attached to the rotary cylinder 20, but the present invention is not limited to this case. For example, the overcap 6 may be attached to the container body 2.

Further, in the application container 1 of the present embodiment, a medicine storage chamber R that opens toward the inside of the container body 2 is formed between the discharge member 3 and the opening / closing member 4. Specifically, the annular space formed between the top wall portion 21 of the discharge member 3 and the connecting wall 34 of the opening / closing member 4 is a medicine storage chamber R.
In the illustrated example, the annular space is partitioned by a wall portion (not shown) and partitioned in the circumferential direction, and a part of the partitioned annular space is used as a medicine storage chamber R. And in this chemical | medical agent storage chamber R, the dehumidifying agent 70 is accommodated as a chemical | medical agent, for example.
The entire annular space may be used as the medicine storage chamber R.

  The connecting wall 34 of the opening / closing member 4 is formed with a communication hole 71 that allows the medicine storage chamber R and the container body 2 to communicate with each other. Thereby, the medicine storage chamber R is opened in the container body 2 through the communication hole 71. Further, a closing body 72 is attached to the opening / closing member 4 so as to close the communication hole 71. The closing body 72 restricts the passage of the contents and allows the passage of gas (air, water vapor, etc.), and examples thereof include a film and a sheet.

(Use of application container)
Next, the operation of the application container 1 configured as described above will be described.
First, in the stage before use, as shown in FIG. 1, the stopper 8 covers the discharge hole 7 and the overcap 6 covers the application member 5. Therefore, the sealing performance in the container main body 2 can be improved, and the quality of the contents can be maintained over a long period of time, for example.

Next, the case where the contents are applied will be described.
In this case, after removing the overcap 6, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, the discharge member 3 is rotated around the container axis O while gripping the rotary cylinder 20. Accordingly, the discharge member 3 and the plug portion 8 can be moved so as to be relatively spaced apart from each other, and the plug portion 8 can be detached from the discharge hole 7 to open the discharge hole 7.

  Specifically, the discharge member 3 is rotated in the arrow T2 direction along the container axis O. Thereby, the pressing part 40 formed in the discharge member 3 gradually pushes down the connecting piece 35, and when the lowermost end 40b of the pressing part 40 reaches just above the connecting piece 35 by rotation, the connecting piece 35 is greatly lowered. Press down. As a result, the connecting piece 35 is greatly elastically deformed downward with the radially outer end portion 35b as a fulcrum, and the plug portion 8 is moved downward relative to the discharge member 3 to be detached from the discharge hole 7. be able to. As a result, the discharge hole 7 can be opened.

  After opening the discharge hole 7, for example, by tilting the container body 2, the contents in the container body 2 can be discharged through the discharge hole 7 and applied to the application portion. Further, by using the electrostatic flocking 52 of the application member 5, it is possible to apply the applied content to, for example, the application portion while extending it over a wide range, or to apply the stimulus to the application portion. . In particular, even if the electrostatic flocking 52 is pressed against the portion to be coated, the elastomer coating body 50 bends and the elastic member 51 is appropriately elastically deformed. It can be applied while giving good irritation.

  In addition, after the discharge member 3 is rotated together with the overcap 6 with the overcap 6 attached, and the discharge hole 7 is opened, the overcap 6 may be removed to perform the coating operation.

And after application | coating of a content is complete | finished, the discharge member 3 is further rotated toward the direction of arrow T2 around the container axis | shaft O again. Thereby, the pushing down of the connecting piece 35 by the lowermost end 40b of the pressing part 40 can be released, and the connecting piece 35 can be restored and deformed. As a result, the stopper portion 8 can be moved upward and re-fitted into the discharge hole 7 to close the discharge hole 7 again.
Note that after the application is completed, the discharge member 3 may be rotated in the direction of the arrow T1 which is opposite to the direction of the arrow T2 to return to the original state.

  As described above, according to the application container 1 of the present embodiment, the discharge hole 7 can be easily opened and closed by using the stopper portion 8 by a simple operation by simply rotating the discharge member 3. It is possible to maintain the sealing performance in the container body 2 while preventing the deterioration of the container.

  In particular, as the discharge member 3 rotates, the push-down portion 40 indirectly moves the plug portion 8 downward via the connecting piece 35, so that the discharge hole 7 can be opened smoothly and good operability is achieved. Can be maintained. In addition, in the present embodiment, since the two pressing portions 40 are formed every 180 degrees around the container axis O, the connecting piece 35 is pushed down by merely rotating the discharge member 3 approximately 180 degrees, so that the plug portion 8 can be detached from the discharge hole 7. Therefore, the rotation amount of the discharge member 3 can be suppressed, and the operability is excellent.

  Further, since the moisture generated in the container body 2 can be removed using the dehumidifying agent 70 stored in the medicine storage chamber R, the quality of the contents can be easily maintained in a good state. In addition, as a chemical | medical agent accommodated in the chemical | medical agent storage chamber R, it is not limited to the dehumidifying agent 70, For example, an oxygen removal agent etc. may be sufficient and you may select suitably according to the content and a use.

  Moreover, since only the application | coating main body 50 in which the electrostatic flocking process was performed is formed with the elastomer among the application members 5, the cost spent on the application member 5 can be held down. On the other hand, since the application body 50 is formed of an elastomer, various electrostatic flocking processes can be performed depending on the application, and the contents can be applied satisfactorily to the portion to be applied.

  The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

  For example, in the above embodiment, the two pressing portions 40 are formed every 180 degrees with the container axis O as the center. However, the present invention is not limited to this case, and the number of the pressing portions 40 may be one. Two or more may be formed.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the connecting piece 35 is pushed down by the pressing portion 40 as the discharge member 3 rotates, thereby causing the plug portion 8 to be detached from the discharge hole 7 and discharging using the restoring deformation of the connecting piece 35. The hole 7 is closed again with the plug portion 8, but is not limited to this case.
It is only necessary that the discharge member 3 and the plug portion 8 are moved up and down relatively with the rotation operation of the discharge member 3, and the discharge hole 7 can be opened and closed by the plug portion 8 along with the vertical movement.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a coating container 80 may be used in which the rotating cylinder 20 of the discharge member 3 and the outer mounting cylinder 30 of the opening / closing member 4 are combined via a spiral screw.
In the illustrated example, a spiral groove 82 constituting a spiral screw is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the rotary cylinder 20 in the discharge member 3, and is screwed into the spiral groove 82 on the outer peripheral surface of the outer mounting cylinder 30 in the opening / closing member 4. The threaded protrusion 81 is formed so as to protrude outward in the radial direction.
Note that only one spiral screw including the screw projection 81 and the spiral groove 82 may be provided. However, it is preferable to provide a plurality of spiral screws (for example, three) at intervals in the circumferential direction as illustrated. Further, a spiral groove may be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the outer mounting cylinder 30, and a screw projection that is screwed into the spiral groove may be formed on the inner peripheral surface of the rotating cylinder 20 so as to protrude radially inward. Absent.

In the case of this application container 80, the entire ejection member 3 can be moved up and down relatively with respect to the opening / closing member 4 by rotating the ejection member 3. Therefore, the plug portion 8 can be moved up and down relatively with respect to the discharge member 3, and the discharge hole 7 can be opened and closed. Even in this case, the same effect can be achieved.
Further, in the case of the application container 80, the pressing unit 40 is not necessary, so that the configuration can be simplified. Moreover, since the pressing part 40 is unnecessary, the number of the connecting pieces 35 that support the plug part 8 can be easily formed, and the plug part 8 can be supported more stably.

In the coating container 80 described above, the rotating cylinder 20 and the outer mounting cylinder 30 may be combined by a general screwing method using a male screw part and a female screw part, instead of being combined via a helical screw. Even in this case, the same effect can be achieved.
Moreover, in the application container 80 mentioned above, the case where the chemical | medical agent storage chamber R is not formed is mentioned as an example. Thus, in this invention, the chemical | medical agent storage chamber R is not an essential structure and does not need to comprise. However, the medicine container R may be provided in the application container 80.
