Further, a handle portion 119 that is gripped when the storage space S is exposed is formed at the lower end portion of the front surface of the upper portion 11 of the container body.

(Material of the upper part of the container body)
The upper portion 11 of the container body is formed of a hard material which is a hard material. As the hard material, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene and the like can be used. The method for measuring hardness is the same as that described for elastic materials.
Further, it is desirable that the portion formed of the elastic material described later and the portion formed of the hard material are integrally formed by injection molding (two-color molding).

(Recess)
As shown in FIG. 2, the recess 112 is formed near the central portion of the top surface portion 111 in a plan view. FIG. 2 shows a case where the recess 112 has a substantially rectangular shape that reaches the front end of the upper portion 11 of the container body in a plan view, but the specific shape of the recess 112 is not limited to this.
The depth of the recess 112 in the Z direction is preferably 5 mm to 20 mm when viewed from the top surface portion 111. The size in a plan view is not particularly limited as long as the take-out portion 113 can be formed inside, but is preferably 40 mm to 80 mm in the X direction and 40 mm to 120 mm in the Y direction.

(Ejection section)
The take-out portion 113 is a portion formed of an elastic material formed near the central portion in a plan view of the concave portion 112, and a substantially spherically raised bulge portion 113b is formed in the substantially center of the take-out portion 113. An take-out hole 113a is provided in the bulging portion 113b.
Further, on the edge of the take-out hole 113a, three projecting pieces 113c protruding from the front edge thereof toward the central portion of the take-out portion 113 are provided.
It is desirable that the take-out portion 113 is formed in a film shape having a thickness of 0.5 mm to 2 mm in the Z direction, for example.
As the elastic material forming the take-out portion 113, for example, a material having elasticity such as silicon rubber or a thermoplastic elastomer such as styrene-butadiene type, polyester type, polyethylene type or urethane type can be used, and the hardness is 20 or more. It is preferably 90. The hardness is measured by JIS K 6253 (Type A durometer).

If the hardness of the elastic material is lower than the above value, it is too soft and difficult to mold, which is not desirable because the molding efficiency deteriorates.
Further, when the hardness of the elastic material becomes higher than the above value, the take-out portion 113 in which the take-out hole 113a for taking out the household thin paper P is formed becomes hard, too much resistance is applied, and it becomes difficult to take out the sheets one by one. It is not desirable because it is difficult to put a finger into the storage space S when pulling out the sheet.

(Outlet hole)
The take-out hole 113a is a hole portion connected to the storage space S formed in the central portion of the take-out portion 113 in a plan view.
For example, in FIG. 2, the take-out hole 113a has a shape in which each side of the triangle protrudes inward in an arc shape, and three slits intersect at the center of gravity so as to connect each vertex and the center of gravity. It is in the shape of a letter. Further, the width of the slit extending in the X direction among the three slits is wider than the width of the other slits.
The number of slits may be smaller or larger than this, and may be formed by, for example, inserting two slits in a cross shape.
Since the periphery of the take-out hole 113a is formed of an elastic material, the take-out portion 113 can apply an appropriate resistance to the household thin paper P, and the household thin paper P stored in the storage space S is pulled out. After being used, it functions to hold the next household thin paper P. Further, when the household thin paper P is a roll sheet, it is possible to cut the household thin paper P with a perforation for cutting provided on the household thin paper P.

(Shard)
The projecting piece 113c is a place where the household thin paper P drawn out from the take-out hole 113a is in sliding contact with the projecting piece 113c, and is provided to apply an appropriate resistance to the household thin paper P drawn out from the take-out hole 113a.
Specifically, when the user opens the opening / closing lid 2 of the household thin paper storage container 1 and takes out the household thin paper P, the opening / closing lid 2 in an upright position behind the household thin paper storage container 1 is used at home. The user reaches out from the front side of the household thin paper storage container 1 so as not to interfere with the operation of taking out the tissue paper P for household use, and pulls out the tissue paper P for household use from the outlet hole 113a. The household thin paper P is in sliding contact with the projecting piece 113c on the front edge.
At this time, the projecting piece 113c protruding rearward from the front edge is in sliding contact with the household thin paper P pulled out from the take-out hole 113a, so that the projecting piece 113c is in contact with the household thin paper P. Appropriate resistance can be applied to prevent the household tissue paper P from being pulled out too much from the take-out hole 113a.
That is, the projecting piece 113c protruding rearward from the front edge imparts an appropriate frictional force to the household tissue paper P pulled out from the take-out hole 113a to the front side, and the household tissue paper to be pulled out and used. It has a function of preventing the next household thin paper P, which is pulled out following the P, from being pulled out too much from the take-out hole 113a.
Then, the next household thin paper P pulled out following the household thin paper P to be used is held in the take-out hole 113a in a state where one end thereof is pulled out with an appropriate length.

Further, one end of the household thin paper P held in the take-out hole 113a in this way is supported by three projecting pieces including the projecting piece 113c on the front side.
Since the take-out hole 113a for holding one end of the household thin paper P is provided in the bulge portion 113b of the take-out portion 113, the tip end side of each projecting piece 113c is the base surface around the bulge portion 113b. It is located higher than the portion 113.
Since one end of the household thin paper P is supported by such a projecting piece 113c at a position higher than the surroundings and held in the take-out hole 113a, it is easy to pick the household thin paper P.

[Effect of Embodiment]
Hereinafter, the main effects obtained by the present embodiment will be described.

(Closed container)
According to the present embodiment, in the household thin-leaf paper storage container 1, when the storage space S is closed, the inner edge portion 118 of the container main body upper 11 is fitted into the concave groove portion 121 of the container main body lower 12 to store the household thin-leaf paper. Even when pressure is applied to the container 1 in the X and Y directions, the storage space S is not easily exposed, the blockage can be maintained, and the airtightness is good.

Further, when the storage space S is closed by the first guide portion 1212a and the second guide portion 1212b provided in the lower portion 12 of the container main body, the inner edge portion 118 of the upper portion 11 of the container main body hits and guides the container main body upper portion 11 as it is to the concave groove portion 121. Therefore, the storage space S can be closed more reliably.
In particular, since the height of the two first guide portions 1212a is higher in the Z direction than that of the second guide portion 1212b, when the storage space S is closed, the upper portion 11 of the container body is relative to the lower portion 12 of the container body. Even if it is twisted to some extent, the trajectory is corrected by being guided by the higher first guide portion 1212a, so that the certainty of closing the storage space S can be further increased.
Further, the above effect can be further enhanced by providing the two first guide portions 1212a on the left and right ends of the rear surface, respectively, extending to the left surface or the right surface.
Further, since the second guide portion 1212b is provided in a wavy shape, the contact resistance can be reduced as compared with the case where the second guide portion 1212b is provided in the entire left-right direction, and the opening / closing operation is performed more smoothly. be able to.

(overall structure)
Further, since the container body 10 is composed of the container body upper part 11 and the container body lower part 12, and these are connected by the connecting portion 13 on the rear surface, the household thin paper storage container 1 is placed on the mounting surface. Until then, the storage space S can be exposed by rotating the upper portion 11 of the container body with the rear end as a fulcrum, and the household thin paper P can be refilled.
Therefore, when refilling the household thin paper P, the refilling operation can be performed more easily while the thin paper P is placed on the mounting surface.

(Button part, etc.)
In the household thin paper storage container 1, the button portion 3 is provided, and the tip portion 31a is formed so that the inclination angle is larger than the inclination angle of the base end portion 31b. Therefore, the button portion 3 and the container body upper portion 11 It becomes difficult to insert a finger into the gap b of the household, and it is possible to prevent the button portion 3 from being mistakenly gripped by the handle portion 119 and trying to rotate when refilling the household thin paper P.

Further, the button portion 3 is attached to the main body side fitting portion 1161 surrounded by the button movable portion 1162 protruding downward. As a result, when the user presses the upper surface portion 31 of the button portion 3 from above while the opening / closing lid 2 is closed, the button movable portion 1162 is distorted downward regardless of the pressed position, so that the button portion 3 will sink downwards.

At this time, since the opening / closing lid side locking portion 21 of the opening / closing lid 2 is inserted into the button side locking portion 33 of the button portion 3, when the button portion 3 sinks downward, the opening / closing lid 2 also responds accordingly. Although it is pushed downward, the opening / closing lid 2 is urged upward by the urging member 114, and such urging force becomes stronger as the opening / closing lid 2 sinks downward.
Therefore, when the button portion 3 is pushed in to a certain extent, the opening / closing lid 2 sinks accordingly, and the upward urging force against the opening / closing lid 2 becomes stronger, but the opening / closing lid 2 and the button portion 3 are on the opening / closing lid side. Since it is engaged only by the locking portion 21 and the button-side locking portion 33, when the urging force on the opening / closing lid 2 becomes strong, this engagement is disengaged and the opening / closing lid 2 is opened.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the opening / closing lid 2 can be easily opened by pressing any portion of the upper surface of the button portion 3.

Further, since the container main body upper portion 11 has the button mounting portion 116 having the main body side fitting portion 1161, the button portion 3 can be easily and stably fixed.

(Handle part)
The handle portion 119 is provided in the upper portion 11 of the container body, and the inner peripheral side of the handle portion 119 is formed into a curved surface by R processing, so that the handle portion 119 can be easily expanded to the outside as compared with the case where the inner peripheral side has an acute angle. Therefore, the engagement between the locking portion 1191 and the engaging protrusion 123 can be easily disengaged, and the storage space S can be easily exposed.
Further, the handle portion 119 overlaps with the engaging protrusion 123 provided on the lower portion 12 of the container body in the front-rear direction when the upper portion 11 of the container body and the lower portion 12 of the container body are engaged with each other. As a result, the engaging projection 123 cannot be seen from the front, which is good for appearance.

Further, since the handle portion 119 is provided with the locking portion 1191, the user hooks a finger on the gap a between the front surface of the container main body upper portion 11 and the handle portion 119, and the container main body upper portion 11 and the container main body lower portion 12 Can be easily disengaged to expose the storage space S.
In particular, since a plurality of locking portions 1191 are provided at positions separated from the central portion of the inner surface of the handle portion 119 in the left-right direction to the left and right, when a finger is inserted near the center of the handle portion 119, the locking portion is provided. The 1191 does not get in the way, and the engagement between the upper part 11 of the container body and the lower part 12 of the container body can be more easily released to expose the storage space S.
Further, two locking portions 1191 are formed on the inner surface of the handle portion 119, and the distance between the two locking portions 1191 is provided so as to be wider than the finger width, whereby the upper portion 11 of the container body is rotated. At that time, the finger can easily enter between the two locking portions 1191, the upper portion 11 of the container body can be easily rotated, and the storage space S can be easily exposed.
The lateral length of the engaging projection 123 is longer than the sum of the lateral length of the two locking portions 1191 and the distance between the two locking portions 1191, and there are two engaging projections 123. Since the locking portion 1191 is engaged, the strength is increased as compared with the case where the engaging projection 123 is individually provided for each locking portion 1191, and the locking portion 1191 can be engaged more stably.

Further, since the upper part 11 of the container body, the lower part 12 of the container body and the connection part 13 are integrally formed by a method such as injection molding (two-color molding), the manufacturing efficiency of the household thin paper storage container 1 is improved. But excellent.

Further, since the household thin paper P held in the take-out hole 113a is not sandwiched between the opening / closing lid 2, the wet household thin paper P (wet tissue or the like) is sandwiched between the opening / closing lid 2 and the container body 10 is sandwiched. There is no trouble that it sticks out to the outside and dries.

If the household thin paper storage container 1 is provided with the take-out hole 113a, the household thin paper P can be suitably pulled out and used, and the next household pulled out following the household thin paper P that has been pulled out and used. One end of the thin paper P can be held in the take-out hole 113a so as not to interfere with closing the opening / closing lid 2.
Then, since the household thin paper P pulled out to an appropriate length is held in the take-out hole 113a, it is preferable to pull out the household thin paper P stored in the storage space S and use it. Can be repeated.

Further, of the three slits of the take-out hole 113a, only the width of the slit extending in the X direction is wider than the width of the other slits, so that the take-out is taken out by the two projecting pieces 113c excluding the front side. The support portions of one end of the household thin paper P held in the holes 113a are dispersed, and one end of the household thin paper P can be supported more stably by the take-out holes 113a.
Further, since the widths of the other two slits extending to the front side are relatively narrow, it is possible to prevent one end from entering the slits when the household thin paper P is taken out.

(Bending member)
Further, according to the household thin paper storage container 1 according to the present embodiment, the opening / closing lid 2 can be urged in the opening direction only by providing the urging member 114 with an elastic material on the upper portion 11 of the container body.
On the other hand, for example, when a spring-shaped urging member standing upward is provided and this is connected to the opening / closing lid 2, the opening / closing lid 2 repeatedly breaks and stretches each time the opening / closing lid 2 is opened / closed. Therefore, such a spring-like portion tends to deteriorate, and the urging force on the opening / closing lid 2 tends to weaken at an early stage. Then, if the urging force on the opening / closing lid 2 is weakened to a certain extent, it cannot be released with one touch.
According to the present embodiment, since the urging member 114 formed of the elastic material is pushed by the opening / closing lid 2 to generate an urging force against the opening / closing lid 2, the portion formed of the elastic material is deformed. Since the amount is small and it is hard to deteriorate, the urging force on the opening / closing lid 2 is hard to weaken.

Further, since the storage recess 115 is provided in the recess 112, it is possible to prevent the pressure applied to the contact portion of the bias member 114 with the recess 112 from becoming too large, and it is possible to reduce the possibility that the bias member 114 is damaged. ..

Further, since the urging member 114 is formed on the rear side of the container body 10 near the fulcrum of rotation of the opening / closing lid 2, the urging force against the opening / closing lid 2 is strengthened, and this is easily opened.

(Other configurations)
Further, since the non-slip portion 122 is provided on the upper surface of the lower portion 12 of the container body, when the household thin paper P is taken out from the take-out hole 113a, the household thin paper P in the storage space S moves and is hard to collapse. , Household thin paper P can be taken out stably.

Further, a part of the non-slip portion 122 is in contact with the mounting surface and serves as a mounting portion 1221 to improve the stability when the household thin paper storage container 1 is mounted on the mounting surface. be able to.

Further, when the opening / closing lid 2 is closed, the opening / closing lid side sealing ring portion 22 is in contact with the outer circumference of the take-out portion 113, so that the airtightness of the storage space S can be improved.
