(57) [Summary] [Purpose] A dry plate-like loofah material of natural plant fiber and a resin rich in elasticity and water absorption for the purpose of being used as a human body cleaning tool for bathing or as a cleaning tool for household kitchen utensils. The sponge material is combined and integrated, the characteristics of both materials are utilized, and the sponge material is stored in a flexible resin bag in a flat shape and packaged to reduce the volume during storage and transportation. [Structure] One surface of a resin sponge material 1 having elasticity and water absorbability and one surface of a dry plate-like loofah material 2 having expansion and contraction are bonded and integrated, and as they are, or by absorbing a detergent or the like, a flexible resin It is characterized in that it is housed in a bag 3, the flexible resin bag 3 is compressed to eliminate the internal air, and the flexible resin bag 3 is airtightly packaged in a flat state.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[Field of Industrial Application] [0001] The present invention is intended for use as a bathing human body cleaning tool at the time of bathing or as a cleaning tool for household kitchen utensils, and is packaged in a flat shape until used and stored or transported. The volume of is reduced.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, there are various kinds of human body bath cleaning tools and kitchen utensil cleaning tools. In addition to conventional scrubbing brushes, elastic resin sponge materials, resin non-woven materials, vegetable fibers, or rich flexibility are provided. Brushes and pumice-like materials are used, and these materials are used alone or in combination.

In the cleaning tool illustrated in FIG. 3, one surface of a soft resin sponge material 1 having elasticity and one surface of a resin non-woven material 4 harder than the resin sponge material 1 are bonded to each other to soften and soften the material. It can be used properly.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] When the conventional cleaning tools described above are made of a single material, only a single effect of the material can be expected. However, as shown in FIG. When combined with each other, it is possible to expect the effect of each of a plurality of materials. However, a cleaning tool that combines multiple materials has not yet been developed, which uses a combination of an elastic resin sponge material and a loofah material in which natural plant fibers are formed into a multi-layer network. Further, it has not been possible to improve the efficiency of storage and transportation by using a cleaning tool composed of a plurality of materials by making the volume flat while not using the cleaning tool.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention is directed to a dry plate-like loofah material having swelling property, which is formed by drying natural plant loofah into a plate shape, and a sponge-like material having elasticity and water absorption. The resin sponge material is combined, compressed, degassed, wrapped in a flat shape, and expanded to its original shape when used. That is, one surface of a resin sponge material having elasticity and water absorption and one surface of a dry plate-shaped loofah material having expansion and contraction properties due to water absorption and dry compression are bonded and integrated, and as they are, or as a result of absorbing or adhering detergent, fragrance, etc. The cleaning tool is characterized in that it is housed in a flexible resin bag, the flexible resin bag is compressed to eliminate the internal air, and is airtightly packaged in a flat state.

[Operation] The operation will be described with reference to one embodiment shown in FIGS. As is well known, the one side composed of the sponge-like resin sponge material 1 having elasticity and water absorbency, when soaked in hot water or hot water containing detergent, is used as a cleaning agent for a bath which is brought into direct contact with human skin, It is effective as a cleaning material for kitchen utensils and tableware in the home.

[0007] Furthermore, since the other surface side composed of the dry plate-shaped loofah material 2 having the swelling property is formed into a natural plant fiber network, the fibers become soft when immersed in hot water containing hot water or detergent. Since it swells and shares softness and hardness, it is most suitable for rubbing the human skin and giving an appropriate stimulus, and is extremely effective as a bath cleaning material and a skin friction material for maintaining health. . Therefore, by sharing softness and hardness, it is possible to not only simply wash but also to wash off adhered residual food deposits, which is effective as a cleaning material for kitchen utensils and tableware at home.

According to the present invention, the resin sponge material 1 and the dry plate-shaped loofah material 2 are airtightly housed in the flexible resin bag 3 and compressed and deaerated to be flatly packaged. Of course, during storage and transportation, the volume will be reduced and the storage and transportation costs can be reduced.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 will be described. Fig. 2 shows one side of a sponge-like resin sponge material 1 having elasticity and water absorption formed in an appropriate shape, and one surface of a dry plate-like loofah material 2 having expansion / contraction property and water absorption formed in an appropriate shape. Stick them together as shown. This is housed in a flexible resin bag 3 made of a resin sheet, and then compressed to appropriately remove the internal air, and airtightly packaged in a flattened state.

Further, depending on the application, the resin sponge material 1 and the dry plate-shaped loofah material 2 housed in the flexible resin bag 3 absorb or attach detergent or fragrance to make it convenient for use. Increase added value.

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the characteristics of a resin sponge material that is highly elastic and water-absorbent, as well as the characteristics of a dry plate-shaped loofah material that has swelling property, water absorption, and has both hard and soft properties after water absorption. Since it has and, it is extremely effective as a cleaning tool for human body, or a cleaning tool for kitchen utensils and tableware. In addition, since the package is formed into a flat shape by compression and deaeration, the volume is reduced during storage and transportation when not in use, and the costs associated therewith can be reduced. Furthermore, the dried plate-shaped loofah wood is a natural plant fiber, and the treatment after disposal is non-polluting, which has the effect of preventing environmental pollution.
