[Problems to be solved by the invention]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional fragrance container, when the former cover is provided with a hole, the size of the volatilization port cannot be changed, so that it is difficult to adjust the volatilization amount widely. Further, the latter method of raising and lowering the cover along the column requires the provision of the column, a tube for inserting the column, and the like, and has a disadvantage that the structure is complicated.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fragrance container that can solve such a conventional problem.

[Means for solving the problem]

In order to solve the above-described problem, the first invention includes a container body that holds the fragrance in a volatilizable manner, and a cover that is attached to an upper portion of the container body so as to be rotatable around its central axis, A fragrance container capable of forming a gap for volatilizing the fragrance between the container main body and closing the gap by rotating the cover around the central axis; A wavy edge waving so as to draw a curve in the vertical direction is provided at the hem portion, and the container body side slides with respect to the cover side wavy edge with rotation of the cover around the center axis. The gap is formed between the cover-side undulation edge or a configuration in which a undulation edge capable of eliminating the gap is formed, and the second invention contemplates the container body and the cover Volatilize the fragrance during And an engaging edge for engaging with the container main body at the lower portion of the volatilizing base along with the waving edge on the container main body side, and the cover side waving at the engaging edge. In the third aspect of the present invention, a cylindrical portion fixed to the container body is provided between the container body and the cover, and the inside of the cover faces the cylindrical portion. A projection is provided, and the cylindrical portion is provided with a guide that engages with the projection that guides the movement of the cover along the wavy edge.

[Action]

In the first invention, when the cover is rotated around the central axis of the container body, the undulating edge on the cover slides along the undulating edge on the container body. Thereby, the cover moves up and down with respect to the container body, and when the cover is stopped at a predetermined position where the cover has moved up, a gap is opened. Therefore, the fragrance is volatilized to the outside from such a gap and the volatilization opening of the cover. On the other hand, when the cover is stopped at the lower position, the gap is closed, and the fragrance can be volatilized only from the volatilization opening of the cover.

In the second invention, the volatilization stand is fixed to the container body by the engagement edge. The cover moves up and down while sliding along the engaging edge of the volatilization stand.

In the third invention, when the cover is rotated around the central axis, the protrusion is guided and regulated by the guide. Thus, the cover moves precisely along the wavy edge. Further, as a result of the cover being regulated by the guide, the cover stops even in the middle of the peak or valley of the waving edge, and the gap can be opened halfway.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the fragrance container according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 9, this fragrance container comprises a container body 2 for holding a liquid fragrance 1 in a volatilizable manner.
And a cover 3 attached to an upper portion of the container body 2 so as to be rotatable around a substantially vertical center axis.

The container body 2 has a bottle shape, and its peripheral wall has a shape that is flush with the outer shape of the cover. And the seventh
As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 8, a cylindrical neck portion 4 is provided on the upper wall 2a vertically on the central axis, and a volatilizing rod 5 and a support pipe 6 for supporting the same are inserted into the width thereof. I have.

The volatilization rod 5 contains the liquid fragrance 1 filled in the container body 2.
The lower part is immersed, and the upper part protrudes slightly from the cylindrical neck part 4. The support pipe 6 is suspended in the container main body 2 with the volatilizing rod 5 by hooking a flange portion 6a provided at an upper end thereof to an upper edge of the cylindrical neck portion 4. The volatilization bar 5 desirably reaches the bottom of the container body 2 so that all of the fragrance 1 can be sucked up.

As a result, the volatilizing rod 5 sucks up the fragrance 1 in the container body 2 by the principle of a capillary tube and exudes onto the cylindrical neck 4.

Before using the fragrance container, the cylindrical neck 4
The volatilizing rod 5 protruding from the inner cap 7 is covered with an inner cap 7, and the outer cap 8 is further covered thereover, whereby the container body 2 is sealed.

The flange 7a of the inner cap 7 covers over the flange 6a of the support pipe 6 above the cylindrical neck 4, and the outer cap 8 engages with the screw 4a formed on the cylindrical neck 4 to thereby achieve this. The flange 7a and the flange 6a are pressed against the upper edge of the tubular neck 4. Thus, the fragrance 1 in the container body 2 is sealed.

A hole is formed at the center of the outer cap 8, and the head of the inner cap 7 projects out of the hole from the hole.

A volatilizing stand 9 for volatilizing the fragrance 1 in cooperation with the volatilizing rod 5 is mounted on the upper portion of the container body 2 as shown in FIGS.

The volatilization stand 9 has a cylindrical portion standing above the container body 2.
9a, the lower portion of the cylindrical portion 9a has an engaging edge 9b capable of engaging with the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container body 2, and the upper portion of the cylindrical portion 9a has a beam portion.
9c.

The engaging edge 9b is wavy up and down following the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container main body 2 as described later, and is formed in a rim shape so as to cover the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container main body 2. On the other hand, a step 10 is provided on the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container main body 2 at a position where it can engage with the engaging edge 9b. As shown in FIG. 8, a rib 11 is provided inside the cylindrical portion 9a in the vicinity of the engagement edge 9b, and a projection 12 is formed at the lower end thereof. Is formed with a recess 13 which can be engaged with the projection 12.

The beam portion 9c is formed by combining two beams so as to be orthogonal to each other, and has a disk 33 having a hole 14 through which the inner cap 7 penetrates in the middle of the crossing central portion. Since the beam portion 9c is composed of such a combination of beams, a hole 34 is formed between the beams.

The lower part of the disk 33 has an engagement cylinder 15 surrounding the hole 14 and surrounding the outer cap 8.

A plurality of cuts 16 are provided at the lower part of the engagement cylinder 15 so as to be easily elastically deformed, and a projection 17 is formed at the lower edge. On the other hand, a projection 18 is also provided on the cylindrical neck 4 of the container body 2 correspondingly.

Before the use of the fragrance container, since the inner and outer caps 7, 8 are attached, the beam portion 9c rides on the beam portion and slightly lifts the volatile base 9 above the container body 2. For this reason, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the projections 17 and 18 are engaged with each other to prevent the volatile base 9 from being detached from the container body 2. In addition, volatilization stand 9
The engaging edge 9b at the lower portion of the cylindrical portion is separated from the upper peripheral edge of the container body 2.

On the beam portion 9c, a volatilizing disk 19 which can be in contact with the upper end of the volatilizing rod 5 when the fragrance container is used is placed, and the cylindrical portion 9a
A locking piece 20 is protruded inward at the upper end so that the volatilization board 19 does not easily come off.

Next, the cover 3 covers the upper part of the container main body 2 together with the volatilization stand 9, and a first volatilization port 21 having a large number of pores and a chimney-shaped square tube at a predetermined location. It has a second vent 22 and a third vent 23 in the form of a window.

Further, a wavy edge 24 waving so as to draw a curved line in the up-down direction is provided at a skirt portion of the cover 3. In the illustrated example, the wavy edges 24 are provided so as to generate two pairs of wavy waves having the same size.

On the other hand, a gap 25 is formed between the cover body 3 and the cover side wavy edge 24 by sliding relative to the cover side wavy edge 24 with the rotation of the cover 3 around the central axis. Or a wavy edge that can eliminate the gap 25 is formed. In the illustrated example, the wavy edge 26 is provided above the engaging edge 9b in the lower portion of the cylindrical portion of the volatile base 9. The upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container body 2 covered by the engaging edge 9b also has a similar wavy edge 27. Therefore, the engaging edge 9b of the volatilizing stand 9 may be omitted, and the cover-side wavy edge 24 may be in contact with the wavy edge 27 on the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container body 2.

Since the cylindrical portion 9a of the volatilization stand 9 has the wavy edge 26 as described above, the area corresponding to the raised mountain edge has a large area, and there is a lip there as shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. A mold hole 28 is provided.

As a result, the cover side wavy edge 24 is
26, the substantially lip-shaped hole 28 is closed by the cover 3 as shown in FIG. Further, from such a state, when the cover 3 is rotated around the central axis so as to be twisted with respect to the container main body 2 so that the ridge of the cover 3 and the ridge of the engaging edge 9b are aligned, the valley of the cover is obtained. A gap 25 having substantially the same shape as the lip-shaped hole 28 opens between the edge and the concave edge of the engagement edge 9b, and the lip-shaped hole 28 communicates with the outside as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. .

A spring piece 29 is provided on the inner wall surface of the cover 3 at a position corresponding to the valley edge, as shown in FIGS.
At the lower end of the spring piece 29, an inward projection 30 is provided. On the other hand, a projection 31 for engaging with the projection 30 and maintaining the closed state of the cover 3 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, a projection 32 for maintaining the open state of the cover 3 is provided at a position which is 90 ° out of phase with the projection 30.

The projection 30 and the projection 31 have an engagement force of
It is formed so as to be larger than the engagement force between the projection 17 on the lower edge and the projection 18 on the cylindrical neck 4. For this reason, when removing the cover 3 from the container main body 2 at the time of use, the volatilization stand 9 comes off from the container main body 2 together with the cover 3, and the cap 8 can be immediately exposed.

In addition, a guide rail 35 that connects the projections 30 and 31 is provided on an outer surface of the cylindrical portion 9a. The guide rail 35 engages with the projection 30 on the cover side to engage with the cover 3.
The curved line is similar to the curved edge so as to guide the vertical movement along the curved edges 24, 26.

As described above, since the projection 30 and the guide rail 35 are always engaged, the cover 3 is stopped at an arbitrary position and the gap 25 is stopped.
Of the fragrance can be adjusted by changing the size of the fragrance.

From both sides of the projection 31, guide pieces 36 extend upward along the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 9a. Since the spring piece 29 is guided between the two guide pieces 36 and engages with the projection 31, the cover 3 can be easily mounted.

 Next, a method of using the fragrance container will be described.

At the stage of sale, storage, etc., the fragrance container is in a sealed state as shown in FIGS. In this state, as shown in FIG.
Since the cover 3 is engaged with the container 18, the cover 3 does not come off from the container body 2 unnecessarily.

When using the fragrance container, first, the cover 3 is removed from the container body 2. At this time, as shown in FIG.
The 29 projections 30 engage with the projections 31 of the volatilization stand 9, and the engagement force is greater than the engagement force between the projections 17 and the projections 18, as described above. .

Next, the inner and outer caps 7, 8 are removed from the container body 2, and the cover 3 is put on the container body 2 as shown in FIG. Since the caps 7 and 8 are removed, the volatilization stand 9 is slightly lowered to the container body side than before, and the engagement edge 9b is engaged with the step 10 of the container body 2 and the engagement edge 9b side Protrusion
12 engages with the valley 13 on the step 10 side. Thereby, the volatilization stand 9 is firmly fixed to the container body 2 side. At the same time, the upper end of the volatilizing rod 5 penetrates upward through the hole 14 of the beam 9c,
Touches the lower surface of 19. For this reason, the fragrance 1 rising along the volatilization rod 5 reaches the volatilization board 19 and diffuses therein, and goes out through the volatilization ports 21, 22, and 23 of the cover 3.

When the cover 3 is rotated around the central axis from this state,
The undulating edge 24 slides along the undulating edge 26 of the engaging edge 9b, and the cover 3 moves above the container body 2 as shown in FIGS. Then, the lip-like hole 28 of the volatilization stand 9 is exposed from the gap 25, and the fragrance 1
Will be volatilized. The fragrance volatilized from the lip-shaped hole 28 descends in the volatilization stand 9 through the hole 34 of the beam 9c.

Since the protrusion 30 in the cover is always engaged with the guide rail 35, the cover can be stopped at a predetermined height. Therefore, the amount of volatilization can be adjusted by adjusting the size of the gap 25.

When the cover 3 is raised to the uppermost position, the projection 30 of the spring piece 29 engages with the projection 32 of the volatilization stand 9, so that the cover 3
Keeps the posture as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG.

In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the various volatile ports 2 of the cover 3 are used.
1, 22, and 23 can be omitted.

[Effect of the invention]

Since the first invention is configured as described above, a volatilization gap can be easily opened between the cover and the container body only by rotating the cover in a twisted manner, Further, the size of the gap can be changed, so that the amount of fragrance emitted can be adjusted. Furthermore, since the opening and closing of the gap is performed by sliding the cover through the wavy edge with respect to the container body, the structure can be simplified by omitting the conventional columns and the like, and the cover moves up and down with the opening and closing, so that it is extremely It can be an interesting container.

Further, in the second invention, a volatilization base for volatilizing the fragrance is provided between the container main body and the cover, and the lower part of the volatilization base is waved along a waving edge of the container main body side and the waver. An engaging edge that engages with the container body is provided, and the cover side waving edge is in contact with this engaging edge, so that the volatilization stand can be stably held and the movement of the cover with respect to the container body is reduced. It can be smoother.

In the third invention, a cylindrical portion fixed to the container main body is provided between the container main body and the cover, and a projection protruding toward the cylindrical portion is provided in the cover.
Since the guide is provided to engage with the protrusion for guiding the movement along the wavy edge of the cover, the movement of the cover can be more accurately regulated. In addition, the cover is stopped halfway with respect to the container body to make the gap half-open, so that the amount of the fragrance volatilized can be adjusted.
