The adjustment sheet 1 of the present embodiment is formed of paper having a certain degree of waist, such as coated paper or water-resistant paper. However, the material of the adjustment sheet 1 is not limited to this, and may be formed of a transparent synthetic resin such as polypropylene (PP), for example. At the time of shipment of the volatilization container 100, the adjustment sheet 1 is placed on the aluminum seal 17 of the container body 10 and is accommodated between the lid body 20.

  In addition to the adjustment sheet 1, a folded instruction manual or double-sided tape (not shown) may be stacked on the adjustment sheet 1 and stored between the container body 10 and the lid body 20. The double-sided tape is affixed to the bottom 14 of the container body 10 and is used to fix the container body 10 to a cup holder (not shown), a shelf or a stand (not shown) of the automobile.

  The adjustment sheet 1 has an outer shape that substantially matches the shape of the upper end 12 a of the neck 12 of the container body 10. In the present embodiment, the adjustment sheet 1 is a substantially circular sheet. The diameter of the adjustment sheet 1 is designed such that the outer peripheral edge 1 a of the adjustment sheet 1 just overlaps the upper end 12 a of the neck 12. More specifically, the diameter of the adjustment sheet 1 is designed to be at least larger than the inner diameter of the upper end 12a of the neck portion 12 and not to greatly exceed the outer diameter of the upper end 12a.

  Further, the diameter of the adjustment sheet 1 has a size that allows the adjustment sheet 1 to be disposed inside the lid 20 beyond the plurality of protrusions 21 protruding from the inner surface 22 a of the peripheral wall 22 of the lid 20. In other words, the protruding height from the inner surface 22a of the plurality of ridges 21 provided on the peripheral wall 22 of the lid 20 exceeds the plurality of ridges 21 and accommodates the adjustment sheet 1 inside the lid 20. Designed for possible values.

  The adjustment sheet 1 includes a folding part 2 that bends a part of the adjustment sheet 1 (hereinafter referred to as a vent part 4) at a position spaced inward from the outer peripheral edge 1 a, and a folding part 2 that connects both ends of the folding part 2. A substantially semicircular cut portion 3 provided so as to surround the vent portion 4. In the present embodiment, the adjustment sheet 1 has two substantially semicircular vent portions 4. Each of the two vent portions 4 can be cut out by cutting out the adjustment sheet 1 at the notch portion 3 and bending it at the fold portion 2. Alternatively, the cut portion 3 may be one in which the adjustment sheet 1 has been cut from the beginning. The adjustment opening 5 is opened in the adjustment sheet 1 by cutting and raising the vent portion 4. And the opening degree (opening amount) of the adjustment opening 5 can be adjusted by changing the bending angle around the bent part 2 of each vent part 4.

  The two vent portions 4 are provided at positions that are point-symmetric with respect to the center C of the adjustment sheet 1. In the present embodiment, the two folding parts 2 face each other in parallel with the center C of the adjustment sheet 1 in between, and the notch parts 3 project from the both ends of each folding part 2 in the direction of the outer peripheral edge 1a. It has been. For example, when these two vent parts 4 are cut and raised substantially perpendicularly to the same surface side of the adjustment sheet 1, the two vent parts 4 face each other in parallel.

Hereinafter, a method for handling the adjustment sheet 1 will be described.
When the volatilization container 100 is shipped, the adjustment sheet 1 is sandwiched between the aluminum seal 17 of the container body 10, the flange portion 23 of the lid body 20, and the plurality of ribs 24, and between the container body 10 and the lid body 20. It is stored and arranged. In some cases, the instruction sheet, double-sided tape, and the like are stacked together with the adjustment sheet 1 and stored together.

  When storing the adjustment sheet 1, the lid 20 is turned over and placed on a stand or the like, and the adjustment sheet 1 is stored inside the lid 20. At this time, the adjustment sheet 1 is inserted beyond the plurality of protrusions 21 of the lid 20 and placed on the flange portion 23 and the plurality of ribs 24. When the instruction manual and the double-sided tape are stored together, they are stored on the adjustment sheet 1.

  In this state, the container body 10 is turned upside down (with the aluminum seal 17 facing down) and the neck 12 is pushed into the inside of the lid 20. As a result, the plurality of protrusions 21 of the lid body 20 get over the annular engagement projection 16 on the neck 12 of the container body 10 and fit into the annular groove 15. In this state, the peripheral edge portion of the adjustment sheet 1 is sandwiched between the flange portion 23 of the lid body 20 and the upper end 12 a of the neck portion 12 of the container body 10. Since the opening 11 of the container body 10 is sealed with the aluminum seal 17, the container body 10 can be turned upside down and fitted into the lid 20 without the medicine Y flowing out.

  Alternatively, the lid 20 in a state where the adjustment sheet 1 is housed inside may be inverted 180 ° and fitted into the neck 12 of the container body 10 placed on a table or the like. In this case, the adjustment sheet 1 can be prevented from falling off the lid 20 by designing the outer diameter of the adjustment sheet 1 so that the outer peripheral edge 1a is slightly caught by the plurality of protrusions 21. And workability can be improved.

  On the other hand, when using the above-described volatilization container 100, the user first removes the lid 20 from the neck 12 of the container body 10, places the container body 10 on a table or the like, and places the aluminum seal 17 on the upper end of the neck 12. Remove from 12a. At this time, the user takes out the adjustment sheet 1 (instruction manual, double-sided tape). Immediately after the aluminum seal 17 is peeled off, the volatilization of the medicine Y filled in the container body 10 is started.

  Then, the user places the adjustment sheet 1 on the upper end 12a of the neck 12 of the container body 10 in a state where the opening 11 is open. At this time, the user cuts and raises the vent portion 4 of the adjustment sheet 1 in advance to adjust the opening and opens the adjustment opening 5. The opening degree of the adjustment opening 5 can be adjusted by adjusting the folding angle of the folding part 2 when the vent part 4 is raised. Moreover, the opening amount of the adjustment opening 5 can be adjusted more dynamically by making the opening degree of the two vent parts 4 different, or cutting and raising only one side.

  When the adjustment sheet 1 is placed on the upper end 12 a of the neck portion 12, the cut vent portion 4 is arranged in the inner side of the neck portion 12 of the container body 10 (the vent portion 4 faces downward). In this way, by inserting the vent portion 4 inside the neck portion 12, even when the adjustment sheet 1 is placed with being shifted with respect to the upper end 12 a of the neck portion 12, the vent portion is formed at the edge of the opening portion 11. 4 is caught, and the adjustment sheet 1 is difficult to drop off from the upper end 12 a of the neck portion 12. Thereby, it becomes easy to place the adjustment sheet 1 on the upper end 12a.

  Thereafter, the user puts the lid 20 on the opening 11 of the container body 10. At this time, when the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 placed on the upper end 12a of the neck portion 12 protrudes outward from the upper end 12a of the neck portion 12, if the cover body 20 is covered as it is, the adjustment sheet 1 may be pinched. In such a case, the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 may be damaged. For this reason, the user puts the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 inside the peripheral wall 22 of the lid 20, and then shifts the lid 20 sideways so as to be disposed concentrically with the neck 12 of the container body 10. From the state, the lid 20 is pushed downward to push the neck 12 into the inside of the lid 20.

  At this time, a part of the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 comes into contact with one of the plurality of protrusions 21 provided on the inner surface 22a of the peripheral wall 22 of the lid 20, and the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 corresponds to the protrusion. Get over the section 21. As described above, when the lid body 20 is shifted and pushed sideways, the outer peripheral edge of the adjustment sheet 1 is in contact with only a part of the inner surface 22a of the peripheral wall 22 of the lid body 20. For this reason, the adjustment sheet 1 comes into contact with the ridge portion 21 on the inner surface 22a with which the adjustment sheet 1 is in contact. In this way, when a part of the adjustment sheet 1 comes into contact with the ridge 21 and gets over, the adjustment sheet 1 is shifted laterally (closed to the center), and the center of the adjustment sheet 1 is coaxial with the center of the neck 12. Will be centered.

  As described above, by attaching the adjustment sheet 1 between the container body 10 and the lid 20, at least one adjustment opening 5 whose opening is adjusted is at least partially in the plurality of volatilization holes 25 of the lid 20. Overlap and volatilization of the medicine Y accommodated in the container main body 10 becomes possible. In other words, the folding part 2 and the notch part 3 for forming the adjustment opening 5 are provided at positions where the adjustment opening 5 at least partially overlaps the plurality of volatilization holes 25.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the volatilization amount per unit time of the medicine Y can be adjusted with an inexpensive configuration simply by providing the adjustment sheet 1 between the container body 10 and the lid body 20. For this reason, for example, even when the volatilization container 100 is placed in a relatively high temperature vehicle or when the volatilization container 100 is placed near the air vent of the air conditioner, the volatilization speed of the drug Y can be reduced. The usage period of the container 100 can be controlled to some extent.

  Moreover, according to this embodiment, since the folding part 2 and the notch part 3 were provided in the position away from the outer periphery 1a of the adjustment sheet | seat 1, the vent part 4 does not interfere with the neck part 12 of the container main body 10, and adjustment The opening degree of the opening 5 does not change carelessly. Moreover, when the adjustment sheet | seat 1 slip | deviates from the upper end 12a of the neck part 12, falling off of the adjustment sheet | seat 1 can be prevented by the vent part 4 being hooked on the upper end 12a of the neck part 12, and workability | operativity can be improved.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the adjustment sheet 1 is formed of coated paper or water-resistant paper, the volatilized medicine Y is difficult to be adsorbed on the adjustment sheet 1, and the adjustment sheet 1 is not altered by the medicine Y.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the adjustment sheet 1 is provided with the folding portion 2 and the notch portion 3 and the vent portion 4 is cut out, the adjustment sheet 1 is not cut when the adjustment sheet 1 is manufactured. 1 processing cost can be suppressed. Moreover, since it is in the flat state which does not cut and raise the vent part 4 of the adjustment sheet 1 at the time of shipment, it can be stacked on the aluminum seal 17 of the container body 10, the configuration can be made compact, and the manufacturing cost of the volatilization container 100 is low. Can be. Furthermore, the opening degree of the adjustment opening 5 can be adjusted by adjusting the angle which raises the vent part 4 at the time of use.
