[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing one embodiment of the paint bucket of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side sectional view showing a use state of the paint bucket of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is another embodiment of the paint bucket of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a side sectional view showing another embodiment of the paint bucket according to the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the paint bucket 1 of the present invention is a paint bucket 1 used for uniformly infiltrating and applying paint A to an application roller 3, and a bottom wall 11 is attached to a front wall 12. And a relatively large curved surface portion 113 having a radius of curvature R (unit: mm, the same applies hereinafter) is formed at a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11. It is characterized by having been formed. During the painting operation, a predetermined amount of the paint A is injected into the paint bucket 1, and then the hook 21 is locked to the upper end of the front wall 12 or the rear wall 13, and the mesh plate 2 is tilted into the paint bucket 1. Set with.

As shown in FIG. 2, the bottom wall 11 has an inclined portion 112 which is inclined upward toward the front wall 12 via a flat portion 111 from a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, an inclined portion 112 is formed which is inclined upward toward the front wall 12 immediately from a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11. The inclination angle θ of the inclined portion 112 formed on the bottom wall 11 is preferably set to 5 ° to 45 °, particularly preferably 5 ° to 30 °.

In addition, curved portions 113 and 114 having a relatively large radius of curvature R are formed at a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11 and at a connection portion between the side walls 14 and 14 and the bottom wall 11. This is the feature. The curvature radii R of the curved surface portions 113 and 114 formed at the connection portions are preferably set to 5R to 30R, and particularly to 10R to 30R substantially equal to the radius of the application roller 3.

According to the present invention, since the inclined portion 112 having the inclination angle θ of 5 ° to 45 ° is formed on the bottom wall 11, excess paint A attached to the application roller 3 is transmitted along the mesh plate 2.

【Example】

 As shown in FIG. 1, the paint bucket 1 of the present invention comprises a bottom wall 11, a front wall 12, a rear wall 13 and side walls 14, 14 standing upright from the bottom wall 11. A pair of handles 15, 15 are attached to upper ends on both sides. The mesh plate 2 is set in the paint bucket 1 by locking the locking hook 21 to the upper end of the front wall 12.

In the paint bucket 1, an inclined portion 112 is formed on the bottom wall 11, which is inclined downward from the middle of the front wall 12, and the inclination angle θ is set to 5 ° to 30 °. As shown in FIG. 2, the inclined portion 121 is formed so as to be inclined upward toward the front wall 12 from a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11 via a flat portion 111 having a predetermined length d. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, it is formed so as to be inclined upward toward the front wall 12 immediately from a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11.

As described above, by forming the inclined portion 112 on the bottom wall 11, the paint A excessively attached to the application roller 3 flows down the mesh plate 2 and flows toward the rear wall 13. . That is, the paint A hardly remains at the connection portion between the front wall 12 and the bottom wall 11 and at the connection portion between the mesh plate 2 and the bottom wall 11. The reason why the inclination angle θ is set to 5 ° to 45 ° is that when the inclination angle θ is set to less than 5 °, the paint A is less likely to flow toward the rear wall 13, while the paint A having a high consistency However, even if the inclination angle θ is not set to exceed 45 °, the paint A sufficiently flows toward the rear wall 13. In particular, it is preferable to set the inclination angle θ to 5 ° to 30 ° because the capacity in the paint bucket 1 can be sufficiently secured.

In the paint bucket 1, as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3, a curved surface portion 113 having a radius of curvature R of 5R to 30R is preferably provided at a connection portion between the rear wall 13 and the bottom wall 11, and preferably, As shown in FIG. 4, a curved surface portion 114 having a radius of curvature R of 5R to 30R is formed at a connection portion between the side walls 14 and 14 and the bottom wall 11. An arc 142 of 10R to 30R substantially equal to the radius of curvature R of the application roller 2 is formed.

As described above, by forming the curved surface portion 114 having a relatively large radius of curvature R at the connection portion between the rear wall 13 or the side walls 14, 14 and the bottom wall 11, the remaining paint A can be applied to a fabric, It can be easily wiped off with the application roller 3 and the like, and the color change operation of the paint can be facilitated. The reason for setting the radius of curvature R to 5R to 30R is that if the radius of curvature R is set to less than 5R, it becomes difficult to wipe off the remaining paint A. On the other hand, it is not necessary to set the radius of curvature R beyond 30R. This is because the paint A remaining sufficiently can be wiped off. In particular, it is preferable that the radius of curvature R be set to 10R to 30R, which is substantially equal to the radius of the application roller 3, since the remaining paint A can be easily adhered to the application roller 3 and can be more quickly wiped.
