As shown in FIG. 1, the toilet paper package 1 of the first embodiment is formed of a laminate 10 in which a plurality of toilet papers 20 are laminated and a package 40 in which the laminate 10 is installed.

<Laminated body>
As shown in FIG. 2, the laminated body 10 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape. In the present specification, in order to facilitate understanding, in the arrow view in FIG. 2, the front surface is referred to as the first surface 11, the back surface facing the front surface is referred to as the second surface 12, and the left surface surface is referred to as the third surface 13. The right side surface facing the left side surface is referred to as the fourth surface 14, the top surface is referred to as the fifth surface 15, and the bottom surface facing the top surface is referred to as the sixth surface 16.

The laminated body 10 is formed by folding a plurality of toilet papers 20 in a pop-up manner and laminating them. The toilet paper 20 of the first embodiment is formed by laminating two sheets of toilet paper to form two plies, but it can also be formed by laminating three or four sheets of toilet paper to form three or four plies.

The length of the laminated body 10 is not particularly limited, but the laminated body 10 of the first embodiment has a length in the width direction, that is, a distance between the third surface 13 and the fourth surface 14 is approximately 105 mm in the front-rear direction. The distance between the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 is approximately 110 mm, and the length in the vertical direction, that is, the distance between the fifth surface 15 and the sixth surface 16 is approximately 220 mm. As a result, it can be easily attached to the existing toilet holder via the engaging portion 39 of the packaging body 40.

As shown in FIG. 3, the folded edge 21A of the toilet paper 21 is located on the left side, the front side portion 21B extends to the right front from the folded edge 21A, and the rear side portion 21C extends to the right rear from the folded edge 20A. Is formed.

The folded edge 22A of the toilet paper 22 adjacent to the front side of the toilet paper 21 is located on the right side, the front side 22B extends to the left front from the folded edge 22A, and the rear side 22C extends to the left rear from the folded edge 22A. Is formed. Further, the folded edge 23A of the toilet paper 23 adjacent to the rear side of the toilet paper 21 is located on the right side, the front side portion 23B extends to the left front from the folded edge 23A, and the rear side portion 23C extends to the left rear from the folded edge 23A. It is formed extending to. In FIG. 3, for ease of explanation, three adjacent toilet papers 20 are illustrated with reference numerals 21 and 22, 23, respectively.

The front side portion 21B of the toilet paper 21 is inserted between the front side portion 22B and the rear side portion 22C of the toilet paper 22, and the rear side portion 21C of the toilet paper 21 is the front side portion 23B and the rear side portion 23C of the toilet paper 23. It is inserted in between. As a result, when the toilet paper 20 located on the frontmost side of the laminated body 10 is pulled out to the front side, the toilet paper 20 adjacent to the rear side of the toilet paper 20 can be pulled out to the front side.

The basis weight per thin paper sheet constituting each ply of the toilet paper 20 is formed to be ^{10.0 to 25.0 g / m 2.} As a result, the toilet paper 20 can be sufficiently resistant to tearing and has a good texture, and sufficient water solubility can be maintained. The basis weight is a value measured in accordance with JIS P 8124 (1998).

The thickness of the toilet paper 20 is formed to be 100 to 150 μm per sheet. As a result, it is possible to ensure that the toilet paper 20 is sufficiently resistant to tearing and has a good texture. The paper thickness is measured using a dial thickness gauge (thickness measuring instrument) "PEACOCK G type" (manufactured by Ozaki Seisakusho) after the test piece is sufficiently adjusted under the conditions of JIS P 8111 (1998). It is the value that was set. More specifically, after confirming that there is no dust, dust, etc. between the plunger and the measuring table, lower the plunger on the measuring table and move the memory of the dial thickness gauge to set the zero point. Next, the plunger is raised, the test piece is placed on the measuring table, the plunger is slowly lowered, and the gauge at that time is read. At the time of measurement, care should be taken so that the terminal of the metal plunger (a circular plane having a diameter of 10 mm) hits the paper plane perpendicularly. The load at the time of measuring the paper thickness is about 70 gf.

The dry tensile strength of the toilet paper 20 in the vertical direction is formed to be 150 to 800 cN / 25 mm. As a result, it is possible to ensure that the toilet paper 20 is sufficiently resistant to tearing and has a good texture.

The lateral wet tensile strength of the toilet paper 20 is formed to be 15 to 75 cN / 25 mm. As a result, it is possible to improve the durability of wiping in a wet state and the sense of security when wiping after using a so-called shower toilet. Further, the wet tensile strength in the lateral direction of the toilet paper 20 is formed to be 0.09 or more with respect to the dry tensile strength in the lateral direction. As a result, it is possible to achieve both good touch and toughness.

The vertical direction of the toilet paper 20 is also called the MD direction and is the flow direction during papermaking, and the horizontal direction of the toilet paper 20 is also called the CD direction and is orthogonal to the flow direction (MD direction) during papermaking. The direction.

The dry tensile strength is a value measured in accordance with JIS P 8113 (2006). More specifically, the test piece used is cut into a width of about 25 mm (± 0.5 mm) x a length of about 150 mm in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The test piece is measured with multiple plies. As the testing machine, a load cell tensile testing machine TG-200N manufactured by Minebea Co., Ltd. and an equivalent machine equivalent thereto are used. The gripping interval is set to 100 mm, and the tensile speed is set to 100 mm / min. The measurement is performed by tightening both ends of the test piece to the grip of the testing machine, applying a tensile load to the paper piece in the vertical direction, and reading the indicated value (digital value) when the paper breaks. Five sets of samples are prepared in each of the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, and measurements are made 5 times each, and the average of the measured values is taken as the dry tensile strength in each direction. The dry tensile strength of the product was measured by stacking a plurality of products according to the number of plies of the product. As for the base paper, the dry tensile strength was measured by stacking a plurality of sheets according to the number of plies of the product.

Wet tensile strength is a value measured according to JIS P 8135 (1998). Specifically, the test piece used is cut into a width of about 25 mm (± 0.5 mm) x a length of about 150 mm in both the vertical and horizontal directions. In the case of multiple plies, the tissue paper is measured with multiple plies. As the testing machine, a load cell tensile testing machine TG-200N manufactured by Minebea Co., Ltd. and an equivalent machine equivalent thereto are used. The gripping interval is set to 100 mm, and the tensile speed is set to 50 mm / min. As the test piece, a test piece that has been cured in a dryer at 105 ° C. for 10 minutes is used. After tightening both ends of the test piece to the grip of the testing machine, use a flat brush soaked in water to apply water horizontally to the center of the test piece with a width of about 10 mm, and then immediately move it up and down with respect to the piece of paper. A tensile load is applied to the water, and the measurement is performed by reading the indicated value (digital value) when the paper breaks. Five sets of samples are prepared in each of the vertical and horizontal directions and measured five times each, and the average of the measured values is taken as the wet tensile strength in each direction. Wet tensile strength was also measured by stacking a plurality of sheets according to the number of plies of the product.

The softness of the toilet paper 20 is formed to be 1.8 to 3.5 cN / 100 mm. Thereby, good softness of the toilet paper 20 can be ensured. The softness is a value measured based on the handle ometer method in accordance with the JIS L 1096 E method (1990). However, the size of the test piece shall be 100 mm × 100 mm, and the clearance shall be 5 mm. Measure 5 times each in the vertical and horizontal directions with 1 ply, and use the average value of all 10 times. The softness is unitless, but considering the size of the test piece, cN / It may be expressed in units of 100 mm.

The water solubility of the toilet paper 20 is formed in 60 seconds or less. As a result, when running water is disposed of in a flush toilet or the like, the risk of the toilet paper 20 being quickly loosened and clogging the pipes is further reduced. The hydrolyzability is a value measured according to JIS P 4501 (1993). More specifically, a test piece cured at 105 ° C. for 3 minutes was prepared, a 300 mL beaker containing 300 mL of water (water temperature 20 ± 5 ° C.) was placed on a magnetic stirrer, and the rotation speed of the rotor was measured. Adjust to 600 ± 10 rpm. Insert a test piece with a side of 114 ± 2 mm square into it and press the stopwatch. The rotation speed of the rotor once drops to about 500 rotations due to the resistance of the test piece, and the rotation speed increases as the test piece is loosened. When the number of revolutions recovers to 440 revolutions, the stopwatch is stopped and the time is measured in units of 1 second. The result of easiness of unraveling is expressed by the average of 5 tests. The rotor has a disk shape with a diameter of 35 mm and a thickness of 12 mm.

As raw material pulp for toilet paper 20, mechanical pulp such as ground wood pulp (GP), pressure-rised ground wood pulp (PGW), and thermomechanical pulp (TMP); semi-chemical pulp (CP), coniferous tree high yield unbleached craft Chemical pulps such as pulp (HNKP), coniferous bleached kraft pulp (NBKP), broadleaf unbleached kraft pulp (LUKP), broadleaf bleached kraft pulp (LBKP); used paper pulp such as Dinking pulp (DIP), waste pulp (WP) Etc., and may contain fibers other than pulp.

Pulp can be used by selecting one kind or two or more kinds. Preferably, chemical pulp containing no filler or foreign matter is preferable. In particular, those containing more LBKP (also referred to as L lumber or hardwood pulp) than NBKP (also referred to as N lumber or softwood pulp) are used. That is, chemical pulp having a ratio of NBKP to LBKP (NBKP / LBKP) of 50/50 to 30/70 is suitable. Since the fiber thickness of NBKP is thicker than that of LBKP, the larger the amount of NBKP, the bulkier it is. In addition, the raw material pulp may contain woody plants such as straw pulp, bamboo pulp, and kenaf pulp, and herbs. Further, although recycled paper pulp may be blended, it is extremely desirable that the recycled paper pulp is composed of only NBKP and LBKP of virgin pulp because it is difficult to express "softness".

On the other hand, as fibers other than pulp, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyester fibers such as copolymers thereof, polyolefin fibers such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polystyrene, acrylic fibers such as polyacrylonitrile, acrylic fibers such as modacryl, etc. Polyamide-based fibers such as nylon 6, nylon 66, and nylon 12, polyvinyl alcohol fibers, polyvinylidene chloride fibers, polyvinyl chloride fibers, synthetic fibers such as urethane fibers, semi-synthetic fibers such as triacetate fibers and diacetate fibers, and biscous rayon. , Copper ammonia rayon, polynosic rayon, regenerated cellulose fiber such as lyocell, and chemical fiber such as regenerated fiber spun from a solution of collagen, alginic acid, chitin, etc. can be included. The polymer constituting the chemical fiber may be in the form of a homopolymer, a modified polymer, a blend, a copolymer or the like.

<Cylindrical packaging material>

As shown in FIG. 4, the tubular packaging material 30 is formed in a tubular shape by joining one side portion of the planar packaging material 30A in the width direction to the other side portion.

In the present specification, in order to facilitate understanding, in the view of arrows in FIG. 4, the front surface of the tubular packaging material 30 is referred to as a front surface portion 31, the surface facing the front surface is referred to as a back surface portion 32, and the left surface is referred to as a left side surface. The face portion 33 is referred to, and the right surface facing the left surface is referred to as the right surface portion 34.

The left side surface portion 33 of the tubular packaging material 30 is formed with a folded portion 33A inward so that the right end portion of the left side surface portion 33 is a valley, and the right side surface portion 34 has a valley on the left end portion of the right side surface portion 34. The folded portion 34A is formed inside so as to be. Further, the upper portions of the front surface portion 31, the left side surface portion 33 and the right side surface portion 34 are open, and the lower portions of the front surface portion 31, the left side surface portion 33 and the right side surface portion 34 are open.

The left side surface 33 of the tubular packaging material 30 is formed with a breaking line 37 extending linearly in the vertical direction at the center in the front-rear direction, and the right side surface 34 is linearly linear in the vertical direction at the center in the front-rear direction. An extending break line 37 is formed. The break line 37 is formed so as to extend from the upper end portion to the lower end portion of the left side surface 43 and the right side surface 44 of the packaging material 40, which will be described later, respectively. As a result, the toilet paper 20 incorporated in the tubular packaging material 30 can be easily provided by pulling either the side surface portion of the left side surface portion 33 and the right side surface portion 34 in the front-rear direction to break the break line 37 to form an outlet. Can be pulled out to.

The basis weight of the packaging material 30A forming the tubular packaging material 30 is 50 to 200 g / m ² . When the basis weight is ^{less than 50 g / m 2} , it becomes difficult to maintain the shape of the package 40 formed from the tubular packaging material 30, and when the basis weight is ^{more than 200 g / m 2} , it is folded. It becomes difficult and there is a possibility that the packaging body 40 cannot be easily formed. The basis weight of the packaging material 30A is preferably ^{70 to 130 g / m 2.} As a result, the third surface 13 and the fourth surface 14 of the laminated body 10 whose number of layers has been reduced by the drawer are folded right on the left folding portion 34A and the right side surface 44 formed on the left side surface 43 of the packaging body 40. It can be supported by the portion 34A to prevent the laminated body 10 from falling downward.

The paper thickness of the packaging material 30A is formed to be 100 to 300 μm. If the paper thickness is less than 100 μm, it is likely to be torn when water droplets adhere to the surface, and if the paper thickness is more than 300 μm, folding becomes difficult and the package 40 may not be easily formed.

Further, the packaging material 30A is preferably hydrolyzable like the toilet paper 20. As a result, when running water is disposed of in a flush toilet or the like, the risk of the packaging material 30A being quickly loosened and clogging the piping is further reduced.

As raw material pulp for packaging material 30A, mechanical pulp such as ground wood pulp (GP), pressure rised ground wood pulp (PGW), thermomechanical pulp (TMP); semi-chemical pulp (CP), coniferous tree high yield unbleached craft Chemical pulps such as pulp (HNKP), coniferous bleached kraft pulp (NBKP), broadleaf unbleached kraft pulp (LUKP), broadleaf bleached kraft pulp (LBKP); used paper pulp such as Dinking pulp (DIP), waste pulp (WP) And so on.

Pulp can be used by selecting one kind or two or more kinds. Preferably, chemical pulp containing no filler or foreign matter is preferable. In particular, those containing more LBKP (also referred to as L lumber or hardwood pulp) than NBKP (also referred to as N lumber or softwood pulp) are used. That is, chemical pulp having a ratio of NBKP to LBKP (NBKP / LBKP) of 50/50 to 30/70 is suitable. Since the fiber thickness of NBKP is thicker than that of LBKP, the larger the amount of NBKP, the bulkier it is. In addition, the raw material pulp may contain woody plants such as straw pulp, bamboo pulp, and kenaf pulp, and herbs. Further, although used paper pulp may be blended, it is preferable that the used paper pulp is composed of only NBKP and LBKP of virgin pulp because it is difficult to express "softness".

The inner surface of the packaging material 30A is preferably coated with a starch paste material, a resin heat seal material, or the like. Thereby, for example, the tubular packaging material 30 can be easily formed by easily joining the one side portion of the packaging material 30A in the width direction to the other side portion. When the inner surface of the wrapping paper 30A is coated with a resin heat-sealing material or the like, it is preferable to form the wrapping paper 30A with a proportion of pulp of 60% or more. As a result, the amount of resin discarded can be reduced, and the amount of microplastics floating in the ocean can be reduced.

<Toilet paper packaging>
As shown in FIG. 5, in order to form the package 40 of the toilet paper package 1, the folded portion 33A of the left side surface portion 33 of the tubular packaging material 30 and the folded portion 34A of the right side surface portion 34 are raised and stood up. Make a rectangular parallelepiped shape with the upper and lower parts open.

Next, the lower portion of the rectangular parallelepiped tubular packaging material 30 is caramel-shaped, that is, the lower portion of the front portion 31 of the tubular packaging material 30 is folded toward the back surface portion 32, and the lower portions of the left side surface portion 33 and the right side surface portion 34 are folded. The bottom surface 46 of the package 40 is formed by folding the right side surface portion 34 side and the left side surface portion 33 side, respectively, and folding the lower portion of the back surface portion 32 toward the front surface portion 31 side to close the lower portion of the tubular packaging material 30. As a result, the bottom surface 46 of the wrapping body 40 is formed by laminating the wrapping paper 30A in four layers to increase the rigidity, and deformation due to the weight of the laminated body 10 built in the wrapping body 40 can be suppressed. In the first embodiment, before the laminate 10 is installed, the lower portion of the rectangular parallelepiped-shaped tubular packaging material 30 is folded to form the bottom surface 46 of the package 40, but the laminate 10 is formed. After the interior is installed, the lower portion of the rectangular parallelepiped-shaped tubular packaging material 30 can be folded to form the bottom surface 46 of the packaging body 40.

In the present specification, in order to facilitate understanding, in the view of arrows in FIG. 1, the front surface is referred to as a front surface 41, the surface facing the front surface is referred to as a back surface 42, the left surface is referred to as a left side surface 43, and the surface facing the left surface is referred to as a left surface. The right surface is referred to as the right surface 44, the surface on which the mounting portion 47 described later is formed is referred to as the top surface 45, and the surface facing the top surface 45 is referred to as the bottom surface 46.

As shown in FIG. 6, the laminated body 10 is inserted from the upper part of the tubular packaging material 30 and placed on the bottom surface 46 of the packaging body 40. At this time, the laminating direction of the laminated body 10 is inserted along the width direction, that is, the direction from the left side surface 43 to the right side surface 44 of the packaging body 40, and the longitudinal direction of the laminated body 10 is the vertical direction, that is, the packaging. It is inserted along the direction from the top surface 45 of the body 40 toward the bottom surface 46. The front portion 31, the back surface portion 32, the left side surface portion 33, and the right side surface portion 34 of the tubular packaging material 30 facing the laminated body 10 are the flat surface 41, the back surface 42, the left side surface 43, and the right side surface of the packaging body 40, respectively. Form 44. Further, as described above, the upper and lower ends of the break line 37 formed on the tubular packaging material 30 are located on the upper and lower ends of the left side surface 43 and the right side surface 44 of the package 40, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 7, the upper portion of the tubular packaging material 30 is pillow-shaped, that is, the upper portion of the left side surface portion 33 of the tubular packaging material 30 is folded toward the right side surface portion 34, and the upper portion of the right side surface portion 34 is toward the left side surface portion 33. After folding, the upper portion of the front portion 31 and the upper portion of the back surface portion 32 are joined via glue or the like to form an extending portion 38 to close the upper portion of the tubular packaging material 30, and the top surface 41 of the packaging body 40 is closed. Form. As a result, it is possible to prevent the packaging body 10 from falling off from the packaging body 40.

As shown in FIG. 8, the extending portion 38 is bent downward at a substantially intermediate portion in the vertical direction, and the upper end portion of the extending portion 38 is joined to the lower portion of the extending portion 38 via glue or the like. As a result, a substantially circular engaging portion 39 extending in the width direction can be formed above the top surface 45 of the package 40.

The length of the packaging body 40 is not particularly limited, but the length of the engaging portion 39 of the packaging body 40 in the width direction is formed to be 107 to 120 mm, and the inner diameter of the engaging portion 39 is formed to be 25 to 45 mm. Is preferable. A general toilet paper holder corresponds to a toilet roll width of 107 to 114 mm, whereby the toilet paper package 1 can be attached to an existing toilet paper holder and used. If it is less than 107 mm, it may fall off from the toilet paper holder during use, and if it exceeds 120 mm, the holdability to the toilet paper holder is high, but it is difficult to attach it.

<Measurement of drawer resistance>
(Measuring method)
The pull-out resistance in the vertical installation state (the state in which the longitudinal direction of the laminated body 10 is provided along the vertical direction) is formed on the front surface 41 of the packaging body 40 by fixing the bottom surface 46 of the packaging body 40 to the platen. The break line 37 is broken to form an outlet, the central portion of the interior laminated body 10 in the vertical direction is sandwiched between clips (Kokuyo Co., Ltd. double clip 25 mm width), and the toilet paper 20 is placed on the front 41. On the other hand, the peak of the resistance value (gf) when pulled out in the normal direction was measured using a digital force gauge (Model: Z2-20N manufactured by Imada Co., Ltd.). In addition, the laminated body 10 was carried out using 180 sets (360 sheets) of elleair audusty shoes.

The pull-out resistance in the horizontal state (the state in which the longitudinal direction of the laminated body 10 is provided along the width direction) is formed on the front surface 41 of the package body 40 by fixing the left side surface 43 of the package body 40 to the platen. The break line 37 is broken to form an outlet, the central portion of the interior laminated body 10 in the width direction is sandwiched between clips (Kokuyo Co., Ltd. double clip 25 mm width), and the toilet paper 20 is placed on the front 41. On the other hand, the peak of the resistance value (gf) when pulled out in the normal direction was measured using a digital force gauge (Model: Z2-20N manufactured by Imada Co., Ltd.). In addition, the laminated body 10 was carried out using 180 sets (360 sheets) of elleair audusty shoes.

(Measurement result)
The average value of the pull-out resistance in the vertical position measured 5 times was 0.77 kgf, and the average value of the pull-out resistance in the horizontal position measured 5 times was 1.04 kgf. It was found that the pull-out resistance in the vertical position was approximately 25% smaller than the pull-out resistance in the horizontal position.

As shown in FIG. 1 and the like, the break line 37 formed on the front surface 41 of the package 40 extends linearly in the vertical direction from the upper end portion to the lower end portion of the front surface 41 at the center in the width direction of the front surface 41. Exists. As a result, the pull-out resistance of the toilet paper 20 can be further suppressed, and the toilet paper 20 can be more easily pulled out and used even for a person with a disability who has a disability in one arm due to an obstacle.

Next, the toilet paper packaged product 1 of the second embodiment will be described. The same members are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 9, the left side surface 43 of the package 40 of the toilet paper packaged product 1 of the second embodiment has a substantially inverted J-shape, for example, an upper portion in a portion shifted to the rear portion in the left side view. A break line 37A is formed in the middle portion so as to extend linearly in the vertical direction and the lower portion projects rearward in a 1/4 arc shape. Further, on the right side surface 44, in the right side view, a substantially inverted J-shape is formed at a portion shifted to the rear portion, for example, the upper portion and the intermediate portion extend linearly in the vertical direction, and the lower portion extends rearward. A breaking line 37A projecting in a 1/4 arc shape is formed. As a result, the pull-out resistance of the toilet paper 20 is further suppressed, and even if there is a person with a disability who has a disability in one arm due to an obstacle, the toilet paper 20 can be pulled out from the outlet formed by breaking the break line 37A on either side. It can be pulled out more easily and used. In addition, it is possible to further suppress the lodging of the laminated body 10 whose volume has been reduced by pulling out the toilet paper 20.
