In the information notification medium according to the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, the information notification object 3 contained in the plastic container 7 is embedded in the transparent soap 5 so as to be recognizable from the outside of the transparent soap 5. Has been done. FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the information notification medium 1. In the drawings, the same reference numerals indicate the same members.

[0012] The information notification object information notification object 3, it is possible to use various materials without being particularly limited constant as long as can be stored in a plastic container 3, those shapes.

[0013] Specifically, the information notice may be, for example, various kinds of paper such as Japanese paper and (semi) synthetic paper, on each side of which various or the same or different kinds of information are printed and displayed. Figures (eg: company emblem, etc.), paintings, photos (eg: graduation memorial photo, marriage memorial photo, company founding commemorative photo), letters (eg: company emblem, company name, phone number, business information, lottery lottery number) Etc.) may be formed and displayed by a method such as folding, folding, or punching in a relief shape (unevenness) that represents, etc. Also, a desired character (mark) etc. is displayed on a piece of paper that is finely cut. It may be displayed by a method such as array adhesion in a plastic container.

In addition, the information notice that can be recognized from the outside can be printed on the surface of a sheet such as a plate, a sheet, or a foil, which is made of colored transparent, semitransparent, or opaque plastic, if necessary. Such desired various information may be displayed in the same manner as described above.

In the present invention, the information notification object is not limited to the above examples, and may be cloth, and may be a natural material, a metal, a phosphorescent material, a fluorescent material, a liquid crystal display device, or a display device using an optical fiber. May be. The above-mentioned natural product may be a plant or a part thereof such as pressed flowers, bark, leaves, etc., or an animal such as an insect or a part thereof. Further, for example, as shown in FIGS. 3 (A) and 3 (B), the pressed flower 3a and the mount 3b on which the company name and the like are stored as a set and stored in a plastic container 7, You may use it combining 1 type or 2 types or more suitably.

The size of the information notice 3 which can be recognized from the outside is not particularly limited as long as it can be accommodated in the plastic container 7 embedded in the transparent soap. In the present invention, since the information notice 3 is enclosed in the plastic container as described above, the transparent soap is used as the information notice 3 as compared with the case where the character sheet is directly put in the soap as in the conventional example. The range of materials (eg pressed flowers), shapes, etc. that can be accommodated inside has been expanded, and the information notification medium 1 containing various information notification objects can be easily installed regardless of the materials and shapes of the information notification objects. Can be manufactured.

Plastic Container 7 As the plastic container (hereinafter, also simply referred to as “container”) 7 in which the above information notice 3 is accommodated, the information notice 3 contained therein is not broken, As long as it is formed of a safe material that does not cause injury or inflammation to the human body and has a safe shape, various materials can be used. Specifically, for example, polyvinyl chloride can be used. , Nylon (polyamide), polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, epoxy resin, polyester, acrylic resin and the like.

The shape of such a plastic container is not particularly limited, and for example, the cross-sectional outer shape may be a quadrangle (see FIG. 2) as shown in FIG. 4), heart shape, star shape, etc. It is preferable that such a plastic container is wholly or partially transparent, but it may be opaque or semitransparent. In particular, when various information is directly displayed on the plastic container itself by a method such as printing, drawing and processing, the container may be opaque, semi-transparent or the like.

Transparent Soap As the transparent soap 5 in which the plastic container in which such an information notice is stored is buried, those conventionally known can be widely used.

In the present invention, the transparency of the transparent soap 5 needs to allow the information contained in the soap to be read and visually recognized (recognized) from the outside of the soap, for example, by polishing the surface of the transparent soap. When a test piece with a thickness of 20 mm is placed on a sheet on which 7-point type is printed and lighted up from the back side of the sheet, it is usually sufficient that the type of this size is legible through soap. It is desirable that the 5-point type should be legible.

The information notification medium 1 and the transparent soap 5 as a base material of the information notification medium 1 are manufactured, for example, as follows. Production of transparent information soap [raw material] Examples of the fatty acid used as a raw material of soap include lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, isostearic acid and ricinoleic acid. These fatty acids are deoxidized by animal and vegetable fats and oils (beef tallow, sheep fat, palm oil, olive oil, castor oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, etc.) by alkali refining, decolorizing by activated clay or activated carbon, and vacuum deodorizing treatment. It may be isolated and purified.

The mixing ratio of these fatty acids is appropriately determined depending on the performance of the transparent soap, the outer shape of the information notification medium (the outer shape of the transparent soap), and the like, but it is not definitely determined. For example, lauric acid 20%, myristin The amount is about 37% acid, 19% palmitic acid, 17% stearic acid, 3% isostearic acid, and 5% ricinoleic acid. In addition to these, castor oil, polyhydric alcohols, sucrose (sugar), ethanol, glycerin, etc. are optionally used as a clarifying agent.

Alkalis are used for neutralizing the above fatty acids or for saponifying fatty acid esters (oils and fats). Examples of the alkalis include NaOH (caustic soda), KOH, Na ₂ CO ₃ , triethanolamine and the like. To be

The transparent soap of the present invention includes, in addition to fragrances, other ingredients that are usually added to toilet soaps, such as bactericides, antiphlogistics, pigments, antioxidants, sequestering agents, skin protectants, and moisturizers. Agents, amphoteric or anionic surfactants and the like may be optionally incorporated. Examples of the antiseptic agent include triclocarban (trichlorocarbanilide) and triclosan (trichlorohydroxydiphenyl ether), and examples of the anti-inflammatory agent include allantoin and glycyrrhizinic acid. Skin protective agents include higher alcohols and fatty acids. And their esters, hydrocarbons and the like. Further, propylene glycol, sorbitol, polyethylene glycol and the like may be incorporated. [Manufacturing] Using the above raw materials, a transparent soap can be manufactured by a conventional method, for example, by a frame kneading method. In the frame kneading method, the above fatty acids are reacted with alcohols (eg ethanol) to form fatty acid esters, and then saponification is carried out with alkalis (ester saponification method). Next, various additives (sugars, polyols, glycerin, pigments, fragrances, etc.) are added to the obtained saponified product and mixed uniformly. The molten soap-containing material thus obtained is poured into a mold and cooled to form crystals, which solidify to obtain transparent soap (frame kneading method).

In the present invention, (A) in this frame kneading step, a plastic container 7 in which the above-mentioned information notice 3 is stored in a molten soap-containing material (hereinafter also referred to as “molten soap”). It may be buried.

Further, (B) the transparent soap 5 is previously provided with a storage portion for the plastic container 7 and a recess serving as the container storage port, and the container is stored in the recess of the transparent soap, and then the storage The mouth may be sealed with molten soap.

Further, (C) as shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of divided bodies 5A, 5B of transparent soap having concave portions 10a, 10b for accommodating a plastic container 7a are manufactured, and these divided bodies are manufactured. In order to cover the above-mentioned plastic container 7a in which the information notice 3 is stored, and to melt-join the divided body joints 12a and 12b, or to use a melted soap (not shown) separately prepared for the joints 12a and 12b. The split bodies may be joined by pouring.

Hereinafter, the method (A) for producing a transparent information soap by embedding a plastic container containing an information notice in molten soap will be described in more detail. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, when manufacturing the transparent information soap 1 in which the plastic container 7 containing the information notice 3 is set in the central portion of the soap, half of the entire amount of the molten information is melted in the mold. Soap is poured, and then the plastic container 7 in which the information notice 3 is stored is placed on the surface of the molten soap in the mold, and then the remaining amount of the molten soap 5B is placed on the entire surface of the plastic container 7. It may be poured so as to be covered, and the inside of the frame may be filled with molten soap and cooled and solidified.

If the plastic container 7 is heavy (specific gravity is larger than the molten soap 5A), the plastic container placed (set) on the surface of the molten soap 5A is displaced from a desired position and gradually melted. In the case of sinking into the bottom 5A of the soap, the plastic container 7 is hung (held) at a predetermined position in the molten soap by various suspension means (not shown) such as tex, wire, and glass rod. When the soap has solidified to some extent, the suspending means such as the tex may be removed.

Alternatively, after half a predetermined amount of molten soap is poured into the frame and once solidified, the plastic container containing the information notice is placed at a predetermined position on the molten soap, and then You may pour the remaining amount of molten soap so as to cover the information material and cool and solidify it.

In the above description, before the container 7 in which the information notification object 3 is stored, half of the predetermined amount (total amount) of molten soap is put so that the container is placed in the central portion of the transparent soap 5. Although the present invention is not limited to such a mode, the present invention is not limited to such a mode, and the container 5 accommodating the information notice 3 is arranged in the central portion of the transparent soap. , Or whether it is placed close to any one of the bottom surface and the top surface, or even diagonally with respect to the bottom surface, depending on the desired position in the transparent soap 5, the orientation, etc. The amount of molten soap added first can be appropriately selected.

The transparent information soap 1 may be manufactured by pushing the container 7 in which the information notification material 3 is stored into the molten soap from an arbitrary position. Moreover, the number of the containers 7 set in the transparent information soap 1 is not limited to one, and may be a plurality. In order to accommodate (set) a plurality of containers (for example, three containers (a), (b), and (c)) in transparent soap, for example, pour a small amount of molten soap into the frame, Then, after placing the first container (a) on the surface of this molten soap, a small amount of molten soap is poured again so that the surface of this container (a) is covered, and then the second container (b) is placed. Place the molten soap on the surface and then pour the molten soap again, and repeat the injection of molten soap and the placement of the container containing the information notice, and finally the surface of the container (c) It may be coated with molten soap. In addition, in order for the information items inside the container to appear in order of the containers (a) to (b) and then (c) as the transparent soap that constitutes the outer layer of the information notification medium is consumed, these containers must be They may be arranged in layers with a predetermined distance therebetween. In addition, the same information may be displayed on such information notification items in a plurality of containers, or different information may be displayed, and further, the material, size, The shapes and the like may be the same or different and are not particularly limited.

When the molten soap is cooled and solidified, a cooling press may be used in order to perform cooling quickly and efficiently. In any case, it usually takes several tens of days after the saponification-type casting to manufacture the information notification medium by such a frame kneading method.

As described above, the transparent soap obtained by solidifying after the saponification type (frame) casting and containing the information notice that can be recognized from the outside is subjected to the frame cutting step and the soap bar cut according to a conventional method. Cutting process for individualization, individual block is usually aged for 1 month or more, for example, about 50 to 60 days, long-term aging process for drying, polishing process for removing low moisture portion of soap surface, polishing finish process (upper wiping process) It is commercialized after going through.

As a method of enclosing the information notice in the container, a conventionally known method can be appropriately adopted. For example, a method of enclosing the information notice in the container by a vacuum packing method, or After storing the information notice in the container, the container opening may be sealed by a method such as fusion bonding, engagement, and sealing with a lid.
