<Overall shape of the finger cover of the first embodiment>

1 and 2 show the overall configuration of the finger cover 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The finger cover 1 has a first sheet material 10 and a second sheet material 20. The first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are rectangular or substantially trapezoidal when viewed in a plan view. In the case of a trapezoid, the leg sides 10A and 20A of the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are bonded (including adhesive and fused; the same applies hereinafter), crimped or engaged, and the upper bottom becomes a short side. The 10B and 20B are bonded or crimped to each other, and the lower bottom 10C and 20C sides, which are the long sides, are in an open state. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, the finger cover 1 has a tubular shape, the upper bottom side which is one end of the tubular shape becomes a closed bottom portion, and the lower bottom side which is the other end of the tubular shape has an opening 30 for inserting a finger. It is formed. By inserting the fingertip into the opening 30, the finger cover 1 is attached to the tip of the finger. The tubular finger cover 1 attached to the fingertip has a first surface 40 arranged on the finger pad side and a second surface 50 arranged on the finger dorsal side.

<Material of sheet material>

Paper or non-woven fabric is used for the first sheet material 10 and / or the second sheet material 20, but in this embodiment, paper is used. The thickness of the paper is preferably 70 μm or less, preferably 60 μm or less. As a result, a good response can be obtained even when the touch panel of a smartphone or the like is operated. At the same time, since the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 have a slight sense of sheerness, the object to be contacted can be seen through the finger cover 1.

Further, in the paper used for the first sheet material 10 and / or the second sheet material 20, it is preferable that the outer peripheral side constituting the tubular shape has a glossy surface and the inner peripheral side constituting the tubular shape has a smooth surface. For example, the glossy surface preferably has a smoothness of 100 or more (preferably 120 or more), and the smooth surface has a smoothness of less than 100 (preferably 80 or less, more preferably 50 or less). As a result, the frictional resistance between the finger inserted inside and the surface becomes large, and it becomes difficult for the finger cover 1 to fall from the finger during use. On the other hand, when operating the touch panel, the frictional resistance between the glossy surface and the panel is reduced, and smooth operability can be obtained.

Further, it is preferable to use N pulp (coniferous pulp) as the paper used in the first sheet material 10 and / or the second sheet material 20. Since the tensile and tear strength is higher than that of hardwood pulp, it can be prevented from tearing during use.

In particular, in this embodiment, so-called pure white roll paper (commonly known as pure white roll paper) is used, weighing 25 to 35 g / m2, paper thickness 45 to 55 μm, and longitudinal tensile strength 2.5 to 6.0 kN /. m, lateral tensile strength 1.0 to 3.0 kN / m, vertical tear strength 150 to 400 mN, lateral tear strength 150 to 450 mN, glossy surface smoothness 100 to 300, smooth surface smoothness 5 to 30 Is adjusted to.

In addition to the roll paper, it is also preferable to use, for example, glassine paper or paraffin paper. In the case of glassine paper, the paper thickness can be made thinner than that of roll paper, and can be adjusted to, for example, 40 μm or less. As a result, the responsiveness of the touch panel is improved, and the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are sufficiently transparent, so that the contact object can be reliably seen through the finger cover 1. .. Paraffin paper can also improve the fluoroscopic performance.

Furthermore, it is preferable that the paper used in the first sheet material 10 and / or the second sheet material 20 also serves as a thin paper (greasy paper) used for so-called grease removing. As such thin leaf paper, for example, a pulp raw material mainly composed of plant fiber produced by processing plant fiber such as goose bark, sampi, honey, 楮, Manila hemp, straw, bamboo by various pulping methods, etc., and coniferous tree , Wood pulp obtained by treating broadleaf trees by various pulping methods, synthetic pulp such as polyethylene and polypropylene, synthetic fiber such as polyethylene and polypropylene, animal fiber such as silk fiber, or inorganic filler such as clay, talc and calcium carbonate. Examples thereof include those obtained by making a paper material containing the above. In particular, thin tissue paper having a basis weight of 10 to 30 g / m2 is preferable, and strength, oil absorption, and a soft feeling of use can be achieved at the same time. Furthermore, since the transparency of the portion that has absorbed the fat is increased, the degree of removal of the fat can be visually confirmed. As described above, by using the grease removing paper while keeping the shape of the finger cover 1, it can be used not only for the purpose of suppressing the virus from adhering to the finger but also for the purpose of absorbing sebum.

<Explanation of detailed shape>

In the flattened aspect as shown in FIG. 1, the width W1 of the opening 30 of the finger cover 1 is set to 50 mm or less at 25 mm or more, preferably 35 mm or less. That is, when the opening 30 is opened in a perfect circle, the opening circumference is 50 mm or more and 100 mm or less, preferably 70 mm or less. In this way, the finger can be inserted smoothly.

Further, in the finger insertion space inside the finger cover 1, the maximum axial length L from the opening 30 to the bottom is set to 100 mm or less at 30 mm or more, and preferably 70 mm or less at 40 mm or more. By doing so, it is possible to sufficiently suppress the attachment of the virus to the finger.

Further, in the flattened mode as shown in FIG. 1, the width W2 on the fingertip side of the internal finger insertion space in the finger cover 1 is set to 40 mm or less at 15 mm or more, and preferably 30 mm or less. With such a narrow width, the range in which the contact object is covered (hidden) by the finger cover 1 can be reduced, so that the visibility when operating the touch panel or the button with the fingertip can be improved.

<Explanation of joints>

In the finger cover 1, side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A joined to each other are formed along the leg sides 10A and 20A of the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20. That is, these side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are along the axial direction of the tubular shape of the finger cover 1. The band widths of the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are set to 10 mm or less at 3 mm or more, preferably 5 mm or less. In the present embodiment, the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are bonded by an adhesive (glue). As shown in FIG. 2, it is preferable that the finger cover 1 is attached to the finger in a posture in which the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are in the vicinity of both finger sides. Therefore, such a usage method can be specified in the usage manual. In this case, as shown in FIG. 3, when the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are separated from each other with the opening 30 as a starting point, the joint between the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A can be forcibly peeled off. For example, when the first sheet material 10 is attached to the fingertip so that the first sheet material 10 is arranged on the back side of the finger and the second sheet material 20 is arranged on the finger pad side, the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are peeled off as shown in FIG. By folding or folding back the second sheet material 20, it is possible to cover the second surface 50 to which the virus is likely to adhere during use.

In addition, although the case of bonding with an adhesive (adhesive) is exemplified here, the concept of adhesion also includes adhesion and fusion using a resin material as an adhesive. Further, the bonding is not limited to joining with an adhesive, and crimping or engagement may be used. In the case of crimping, the pulp fibers can be entangled with each other by ultrasonic pressure or the like to join the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A. In the case of engagement, the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A may be joined by mechanical engagement (fitting) by embossing (unevenness) processing, knurling processing, or the like.

Further, tip strip-shaped regions 12B and 22B joined to each other are formed along the upper bottoms 10B and 20B of the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20. That is, these tip band-shaped regions 12B and 22B are along the radial direction of the tubular shape of the finger cover 1. The band widths of the tip band-shaped regions 12B and 22B are set to 10 mm or less at 3 mm or more, preferably 5 mm or less. In the present embodiment, the tip band-shaped regions 12B and 22B are bonded by an adhesive, but they may be crimped or engaged.

<Aperture shape>

As shown in FIG. 1, the opening 30 has a convex region 30A that is convex to the outside of the tubular shape in the axial direction (the webbing side of the finger). That is, the end portions of the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A that define a part of the opening 30 in the strip longitudinal direction are retracted toward the fingertip side from the convex region 30A. The convex region 30A is formed on each of the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20. By doing so, the flexibility of the convex region 30A is increased, and it becomes easy to pinch or turn over with the fingertips, so that the opening 30 can be easily opened when the finger is inserted.

<How to use>

As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the finger cover 1 is attached to the index finger by inserting the fingertip of the index finger through the opening 30. As a result, since the index finger is covered with the finger cover 1, it is possible to prevent the virus from adhering to the index finger when operating the buttons of the elevator or operating the touch panel. At the same time, when the virus has already adhered to the index finger side, it is possible to suppress the virus from adhering to the device side even by operating the elevator button or the touch panel. As a result of the finger cover 1 being made of a paper material, when the finger cover 1 is loosened after being attached to the fingertip, the paper fits well and the fit to the fingertip can be improved.

Further, as a result of setting the paper thickness of the finger cover 1 to be thin, there is little electrical interference, so that the touch panel can be smoothly operated through the finger cover 1. In particular, since the outer surface of the finger cover 1 is a glossy surface, it can slide smoothly with the touch panel, so that it is easy to write characters. In recent years, there have been increasing opportunities to digitally sign contracts using the touch panel of information terminals owned by others. Therefore, by attaching this finger cover 1, smooth electronic signatures with fingertips can be realized. At the same time, the transmission of the virus can be suppressed from each other.

After use, as shown in FIG. 3, the convex region 30A of the opening 30 is pinched, and the second sheet material 20 on the finger pad side is folded while forcibly peeling off the joined state of the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A. Cover the second surface 50 on the finger pad side. As a result, the handling of the finger cover 1 after use becomes easy.

Further, since the finger cover 1 is made of a paper material, it can be mass-produced at an extremely low cost. As a result, the finger cover 1 can be discarded each time it is used without being reused. Since it is a paper material, it also has the advantage of not emitting harmful substances when it is disposed of.

In the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment, the case where the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are removable is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as in the finger cover 1 which is a modification shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, a pair of perforated fragile regions 13A extending in the axial direction along the inside of the pair of side strip regions 12A and 22A. , 23A may be formed. The fragile areas 13A and 23A are formed so as to be continuous from the opening 30. The fragile regions 13A and 23A are locally low tear strength portions in the second sheet material 20. As a result, when the opening 30 is torn, the second sheet material 20 breaks along the fragile regions 13A and 23A. By folding back a part of the second sheet material 20, the second surface 50 on the finger pad side can be covered.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 (C) and 4 (D), it is also preferable to firmly join the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A so as not to be peeled off. Since the two sheet materials are laminated in the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A, the mechanical rigidity is high and the tear strength is high. When the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are to be separated from each other by using the opening 30, the sheet material is easily torn along the inner edges of the high-strength side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A. The second surface 50 on the finger pad side can be covered by folding back a part of the second sheet material 20 while breaking the second sheet material 20 along the inner edge.

Further, in the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment, a case where the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are used and joined at a pair of side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A has been exemplified, but the present invention is limited thereto. Not done. For example, as shown in FIG. 5A, one sheet of the first sheet material 10 is folded into a cylindrical shape, and one side edge and the other side edge of the first sheet material 10 are joined in the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A. Therefore, it may be configured in a cylindrical shape. In this case, a crease 19 along the axial direction is formed on the side edge of the first sheet material 10.

Furthermore, in the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment, the case where the tip band-shaped regions 12B and 22B are formed has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 5B, the tip side may be opened and the tip side opening 35 may be provided without forming the tip band-shaped regions 12B and 22B.

Furthermore, in the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment, the case where the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are attached so as to be arranged along the vicinity of the finger side is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the finger cover 1 may be attached to the finger so that the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A are located on the finger pad side or the finger dorsal side. In this wearing posture, perforated fragile regions 13A and 23A extending in the axial direction along the finger side may be formed.

Further, in the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment, a plain case is illustrated, but as shown in FIG. 7, for example, it is preferable that characters, patterns, marks, pictures, characters, and the like are printed. In particular, since the finger cover 1 is made of paper that is compatible with printing, it is possible to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the printed characters and patterns. If you print a company advertisement, you can use it as a promotional material.

<Finger cover package of the second embodiment>

Next, the finger cover package 100 according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The finger cover package 100 includes a finger cover 1 of the first embodiment and a case 110 for accommodating the finger cover 1. The case 110 is made of thick paper and has a first accommodating portion 120 in which a plurality of finger covers 1 before use are stacked and a second accommodating portion 140 in which the finger covers 1 after use are accommodated. Have.

In detail, the case 110 has a first outer surface 122 forming one outer surface, a second outer surface 142 forming the other outer surface opposite to the first outer surface 122, and a first outer surface 122 and a first. (Ii) It has a partition surface 132 arranged between the outer surface 142. The first outer surface 122, the second outer surface 142, and the partition surface 132 have both side edges and lower edges continuous in a U-shape. As a result, the pocket structure composed of the first outer surface 122 and the partition surface 132 becomes the first accommodating portion 120, and the pocket structure composed of the second outer surface 142 and the partition surface 132 becomes the second accommodating portion 140.

At the center of the upper edge of the first outer surface 122 in the width direction, a notch 122A having a concave portion is formed on the lower side. The notch 122A exposes a part of the finger cover 1 (closest to the first outer surface 122) accommodated in the first accommodating portion 120. On the other hand, a tongue-shaped tongue portion 136 that is folded back toward the first outer surface 122 is formed at the center of the upper edge of the partition surface 132 in the width direction. By folding back the tongue portion 136, the notch 122A is covered. By inserting the lower end of the folded tongue portion 136 into the first accommodating portion 120 via the notch 122A, the finger cover 1 functions as a lid of the first accommodating portion 120 and is accommodated in the first accommodating portion 120. However, it can be prevented from falling from the upper end opening. Further, as shown in FIG. 9, when the tongue portion 136 is pulled out upward, the upper end opening of the first accommodating portion 120 is opened, so that the finger cover 1 exposed from the notch 122A is pulled out upward by hand. It will be possible to take it out.

Further, as shown in FIG. 10, the tongue portion 136 can be made to function as a hook by separating the lower end (tip) of the tongue portion 136 to be folded away from the first accommodating portion 120. Specifically, the tip of the tongue portion 136 is inserted into the opening 30 of the finger cover 1 attached to the fingertip and hooked. After that, by pulling out the finger from the finger cover 1, the used finger cover 1 remains on the tongue portion 136 side. As a result, the finger cover 1 can be separated from the finger without touching the outer peripheral surface at all, and the finger cover 1 can be dropped into the trash can as it is.

Returning to FIG. 8, a pair of tongue-shaped stoppers 148 folded into the pockets of the second accommodating portion 140 are formed on the upper edge of the second outer surface 142. Similarly, a pair of tongue-shaped stoppers 138 that are folded back into the pocket of the second accommodating portion 140 are formed on the upper edge of the partition surface 132. As shown in FIG. 11A, when the finger cover 1 attached to the fingertip is inserted into the second accommodating portion 140 together with the finger, the stoppers 148 and 138 are wedge-like with respect to the opening 30 of the finger cover 1. Engage. In this state, by pulling out the finger from the finger cover 1, the used finger cover 1 can be left in the second accommodating portion 140 as shown in FIG. 11B.

As shown by the dotted line in FIG. 11B, it is preferable that the antibacterial sheet 500 is inserted into the second accommodating portion 140. While the used finger cover 1 is stored in the second storage portion 140, it becomes possible to kill the virus by contacting with the antibacterial sheet 500. Instead of the antibacterial sheet, the inner wall of the second accommodating portion 140 may be antibacterial processed.

<Finger cover set of the third embodiment>

Next, the finger cover set 200 according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 and 13. The finger cover set 200 includes a plurality of finger covers 1 according to the first embodiment, and the finger covers 1 are laminated in a state of being adhered to each other by a peelable adhesive.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13A, the finger cover 1 has an adhesive region 28 formed on the fingertip side of the second sheet material 20 located on the finger pad side. When the finger cover 1 is laminated as shown in FIG. 12 (A), the adhesive region 28 formed on the second sheet material 20 of the upper finger cover 1 adheres to the first sheet material 10 of the lower finger cover 1. do. As a result, in the finger cover set 200, a plurality of finger covers 1 are detachably laminated and integrated in a manner like a so-called sticky note. As shown in FIG. 12B, the fingertip is directly inserted into the opening 30 of the uppermost finger cover 1 of the finger cover set 200, and then the finger cover 1 is peeled off from the lower layer finger cover 1. By doing so, it can be easily installed. Further, after use, as shown in FIG. 13B, the first sheet material 10 and the second sheet material 20 are separated from each other from the opening 30 side, and the second sheet material 20 is folded back to the finger pad side. It can be adhered to the adhesive region 28 while covering the second surface 50 of the above.

Although the case where the adhesive region 28 is formed on the fingertip side of the finger cover 1 in the finger cover set 200 is illustrated here, the present invention is not limited to this. As in the finger cover set 200 shown in FIG. 14, the adhesive region 28 may be formed on the opening 30 side of the second sheet material 20 in each finger cover 1.

Although the finger cover 1 of the present embodiment is exemplified by the case where it is made of a paper material, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a non-woven fabric can be used.

Further, when the finger cover 1 is attached to a short finger such as a thumb, the finger cover 1 is changed by bending the tip of the finger cover 1 or partially peeling off the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A of the opening 30 to change the position of the opening 30. It is also possible to freely adjust the length of.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment illustrates the case where the second sheet material 20 on the finger pad side is pinched by the other finger and peeled off. Not limited to. For example, as in the finger cover 1 shown in FIG. 15, the first sheet material 10 on the back side of the finger can be removed by pinching it with the other finger and peeling it toward the fingertip side. The entire finger cover 1 may be carried to the trash can and discarded while the first sheet material 10 is pinched by the other finger. Further, the first sheet material 10 may be folded back to the second sheet material 20 side from the fingertip side to cover the second surface 50 on the finger pad side with the first sheet material 10. As shown in FIG. 15C, the peeling operation may be performed on the table 800.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5A, the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment is formed by folding one sheet of the first sheet material 10 laterally along a crease 19 along the axial direction to form a tubular shape. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as in the finger cover 1 shown in FIG. 16, a pair of first sheet materials 10 are vertically folded and mated along a fold 19 orthogonal to the axial direction (or having an angle in the axial direction). By joining the side strip-shaped regions 12A and 22A of the above, a bottomed tubular structure may be formed. In this case, the fold 19 of the finger cover 1 is located on the fingertip side at the time of mounting.

Furthermore, although the outer shape of the finger cover 1 of the first embodiment is illustrated as a trapezoidal shape (partial cone during use) before use, the present invention is not limited to this, and various outer shapes can be adopted. .. For example, a convex portion 29 imitating an animal's ear is formed as in the finger cover 1 shown in FIG. 17 (A), or a convex portion imitating a bird or an airplane wing like the finger cover 1 shown in FIG. 17 (B). A unit 29 may be provided. The convex portion 29 is formed by bonding the first sheet 10 and the second sheet 20. In this way, the advertising function can be enhanced by imitating the outer shape of the finger cover 1 with the outer shape of an animal, a vehicle, various articles, a company logo mark, or the like. Color printing can also be performed according to these outer shapes.

Furthermore, in the finger cover package 100 of the second embodiment, the case where the case 110 is made entirely of thick paper is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, as in the case 110 shown in FIG. 18A, a configuration having a bag body 170 made of a resin film (resin sheet) such as a transparent OPP bag and a partition member 180 housed therein. Can be adopted. If the partition member 180 made of thick paper or the like is inserted into the bag body 170, the first accommodating portion 120 and the second accommodating portion 140 are formed. Here, the partition member 180 is folded in three in a Z shape and then inserted into the bag body 170. As a result, the partition member 180 itself can form the first outer surface 122, the second outer surface 142, and the partition surface 132.

As an example of further simplifying the case 110, for example, as shown in FIG. 18B, only by inserting a single sheet-shaped partition member 180 inside the bag body 170, the first accommodating portion 120 and the second accommodating portion 120 and the second The accommodating portion 140 may be configured. In this case, one surface of the bag body 170 becomes the first outer surface 122, the other surface becomes the second outer surface 142, and the partition member 180 becomes the partition surface 132. The finger cover 1 accommodated in the first accommodating portion 120 can be seen through by the transparent bag body 170.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it goes without saying that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
