Description

The present invention relates to an urn for storing remains. In particular, the present invention relates to an urn suitable for being housed in an indoor ossuary or an ossuary-type altar set up in a private home.

Currently, it is difficult to have a cemetery near an individual residence due to difficulties in securing land and high prices. This tendency is particularly remarkable in urban areas. Therefore, to visit the grave, you have to prepare for a short trip to the suburban cemetery, and you have to change trains or run cars for hours and go out and return. Under such circumstances, even though there is a feeling of respect for ancestors and deceased people, the frequency of visiting the graves is very short. In order to avoid such inconvenience or because of the personal desire to feel close to the deceased at any time and to take care of it everyday, the ossuary installed inside the house or in the house Increasingly, the remains are stored in the ceremony altar.

However, it may not always be appropriate to use the urns that have been used in the graves as they are on the indoor ossuary or the altar in the house. Such an urn is intended to be placed in an invisible grave, and does not always give a visually pleasant impression. Aside from the appearance, when such an urn is used in an indoor ossuary, etc., the sealing performance may be insufficient, and the remains will absorb moisture, generating mold and bacteria on the remains. Or a strange odor may occur, or the remains may be discolored over time. For this reason, there is a need for an urn suitable for storage in an indoor ossuary or in a Buddhist altar.

As a countermeasure against such a problem, there is an indoor bone box proposed in Patent Document 1, for example. This bone box includes a main body and a lid having a quadrangular horizontal cross section formed of wood, and the entire main body and the lid (front and back surfaces) are lacquered. This bone box is made of lacquer applied to the whole bone box to provide an appearance suitable for an indoor bone box, and the antibacterial and bactericidal effects of lacquer, and also improves water resistance and moisture resistance by lacquer. Therefore, the generation of mold, bacteria and off-flavors is suppressed, the remains are kept dry, and the remains are sanitarily preserved. In addition, the bone box of Patent Document 1 uses two outer and inner boxes of different sizes but the same configuration, and the inner box containing the remains is placed in the outer box, It is proposed to make a double structure. Lacquering is applied to both the outer box and the inner box. By constituting in this way, it is intended to more reliably suppress the growth of mold and bacteria, keep the remains as dry, and preserve the remains in a sanitary manner.

Registered Utility Model No. 3138096

In the case of Patent Document 1, it is considered that the hygienic preservation of the remains is improved by the double structure of the bone box and the application of lacquer to each bone box. However, even if the double structure and the water resistance and moisture resistance of lacquer are used, it is impossible to realize the penetration of moisture or moisture into each bone box or the exclusion from each bone box. The remains are exposed to a moisture-containing atmosphere as soon as possible. Despite the antibacterial and bactericidal effects of lacquer, mold and bacteria may grow. If that happens, an odor will eventually be generated and the remains will be discolored after long-term use. In order to prevent these, regardless of whether or not it has a double structure, it absorbs moisture or moisture in the urn (bone box) and enhances the antibacterial and bactericidal effects, and even a strange odor has occurred. Even so, it is desirable to give the urn a function to deodorize it.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, the urn of the present embodiment is a bone box 1 having an octagonal horizontal cross-sectional shape obtained by cutting out each corner of a rectangle. The bone box 1 includes a bottomed main body 3 having an opening at the top, and a lid 5 that is attached to the top of the main body and closes the opening so as to be opened and closed. The main body 3 includes left and right side plates 7, front and rear side plates 9 (only one front plate 9 is illustrated), corner side plates 11 located at each corner, and a bottom plate 13. The side plates 7, 9, and 11 are joined to each other and to the bottom plate 13 using an appropriate means such as an adhesive, a woodworking glue, a nail, a metal fitting, or the like. The front and rear side plates 9 have a width dimension smaller than that of the left and right side plates 7 and larger than that of the corner portion side plate 11. Moreover, each side plate 7, 9, and 11 has a height dimension larger than a width dimension. The main body 3 has the same horizontal cross-sectional area over the entire height.

The lid 5 includes a top plate 15 having an octagonal shape in which each corner of a rectangle is cut off, a left and right side plate 17 extending downward from an outer peripheral portion of the top plate, a front and rear side plate 19, and a corner side plate 21. Have. Similar to the main body 3, the front and rear side plates 19 have a smaller width dimension than the left and right side plates 17 and a larger width dimension than the angle side plate 21. Unlike the main body 3, each side plate 17, 19, 21 has a height dimension smaller than the width dimension. In addition, providing the corners in the bone box 1 (the main body part 3 and the lid part 5) improves the aesthetic appearance, and when the bone box is stored side by side in an urn storage space such as an indoor ossuary or a Buddhist altar, This is to facilitate taking in and out. The outer boundary surface between the top plate 15 of the lid 5 and the side plates 17, 19, 21 is rounded from the former to the latter. This is to prevent scratches and improve the appearance.

An engagement step 23 (FIG. 5) for attaching the lid 5 is formed at the upper end of the main body 3. The engagement step portion 23 is formed at the upper end of the main body portion 3 while leaving half of the thickness of each side plate 7, 9, 11 (inner half). On the other hand, as is apparent from FIG. 5, the side plates 17, 19, and 21 of the lid portion 5 have a thickness that is half that of the side plates 7, 9, and 11 of the main body portion 3 in a cross-sectional view. Thus, the lid 5 is removably attached to the main body through the engaging step 23 of the main body 3 and the thin side plates 17, 19, 21 of the lid 5 to close the opening of the main body. And seal the body. At the time of deposition, the outer surface of the lid part 5 and the outer surface of the main body part 3 are flush with each other.

The material forming the bone box 1 is not particularly limited, and wood, ceramics, or metal can be used. In the present embodiment, wood is used. Examples of wood include, for example, boxwood, cypress, cherry, sawara, hiba, etc., which are usually used to manufacture bone boxes. Two or more of these woods may be used in combination. For example, the main body 3 and the lid 5 can be formed of different wood. As an example, the bone box 1 of the present embodiment has dimensions of a width of 140 mm, a height of 230 mm, and a depth of 270 mm. If it is such a size, for example, the weight when storing the remains in the case of men is about 4 kg, 3-4 kg in the case of women, two bone boxes 1, for example, a bone box storage space (for example, (Bone box storage space with a width of 385 mm, a height of 298 mm, and a depth of 335 mm) can be stored without impairing the aesthetics. Alternatively, it can be conveniently stored in an ossuary room (not shown) that is aligned on the top, bottom, left and right of the indoor ossuary with the front glass door.

In the present embodiment, lacquering is applied to the entire outer surface of the main body portion 3 and the lid portion 5 constituting the bone box 1. This is to improve the beauty of the bone box 1. In addition, lacquer is resistant to heat and moisture, and has antibacterial, bactericidal, antiseptic and insecticidal effects, and thus protects the remains and bone box in the bone box. It is preferable to lacquer the engaging step portion 23 (FIG. 5) of the main body portion 3 and the lid portion 5 engaged therewith. This is to improve the sealing performance between the main body 3 and the lid 5 when the lid 5 is attached. The outer surface of the bottom plate 11 of the main body 3 is preferably lacquered. This is to prevent corrosion from occurring from the bottom plate 11. Moreover, you may lacquer also on the inner surface of the main-body part 3 and the cover part 5. FIG. The type of lacquer is not particularly limited, and may be raw lacquer, transparent lacquer, or black lacquer. The coating may be a single layer, overcoating, coating after the base treatment, or any other coating method. You may add and add a coloring pigment. For lacquering, lacquer brushes, cloths and the like can be preferably used, but it is also possible to immerse in lacquer solution.

In the present embodiment, the front surface of the bone box 1, that is, the front surface of the front plate 9 of the main body unit 3 constitutes a display unit 25 for describing information about the deceased, for example, the name of command, date of death, common name, and year To do. Thereby, the front of the bone box 1 can be used as a substitute for the deceased. This is particularly advantageous when the bone box 1 is housed in an ossuary room with a glass door at the front of an indoor ossuary. The display of the name or the like on the display unit 25 is performed by hand-written ink, spraying paint, applying a gold leaf, printing, or other appropriate means on the lacquer layer on the front surface of the front plate 9 Can be done by. Moreover, you may affix and display the display thing (not shown) which described the command name etc. Further, a rectangular recess (not shown) may be provided on the front surface of the front plate 9 and a display object may be fitted into the recess. Furthermore, a U-shaped frame having an opening on one side may be provided on the front surface of the front side plate 9, and a display object describing a name or the like may be inserted into the frame through the opening. The display unit 25 formed by the front side plate 9 can also display graphics, photographs, etc. in addition to characters such as command names.

The main body 3 can be manufactured using charcoal powder and a binder (binder), and the manufacturing procedure will be described below by taking an example of manufacturing charcoal powder from fruit trees.
a. Charcoal making: Bake fruit trees in a kiln to get a lump of charcoal. The fruit tree is hard and can improve the quality of the charcoal. For example, an apple tree. The obtained charcoal is hard and light, has many cavities, and has an excellent filtration function.
b. Charcoal powder processing: A lump of charcoal is pulverized by a machine into refined charcoal powder.
c. Molding on charcoal plate: Mixing wood powder as a binder into charcoal powder, applying pressure, and naturally drying using a mold to obtain a charcoal plate. In addition, since it is preferable that the main-body part 3 has air permeability, it is good to select the thing which was excellent also in the woodworking glue. As the binder, in addition to the woodworking glue, a resin having air permeability, for example, a urethane foam resin can be used.
d. Charcoal plate processing: The charcoal plate is cut according to the shape and size of the main body 1 of the urn (bone box) to be used. That is, each side board of the main-body part 3 which is a charcoal board is formed here.
e. Assembly: The cut charcoal plates are assembled and joined. An adhesive, a woodworking glue, a metal fitting, etc. can be used for joining.
f. Surface coating: If there is an uneven portion on the surface of the assembled main body 3, for example, a charcoal paste is applied and corrected. Then, if necessary, a resin coating finish is performed. It is preferable to select a resin excellent in air permeability as the resin used at that time. Thereafter, the painted surface may be sprayed for coloring.

If the main body part 3 is formed as described above, the charcoal contained therein has the effect of absorbing moisture and odor, and also has antibacterial and antifungal properties, so that it is stored in the bone box 1. The remains can be kept in a stable and hygienic state.
Further, the lid part 5 can also be manufactured by the same manufacturing procedure as that of the main body part 3 described above.

In this embodiment, a bone box having an octagonal horizontal cross-sectional shape is used as the urn, but the present invention is not limited to such a skeleton, and is a conventional circular urn. However, the present invention is equally applicable to various polygonal urns including quadrangular and hexagonal shapes. In that case, what is necessary is just to manufacture a charcoal containing frame body according to the shape and dimension of these urns. Further, the present invention is not limited to an urn having the same diameter or cross-sectional area over the entire height, but can be similarly applied to an urn whose diameter or cross-sectional area increases upward, for example. Further, the material constituting the urn is not limited to wood. This is because the charcoal-containing frame is a member that can be separated from the urn, so that it can be fitted into a ceramic or metal urn regardless of the material of the urn. In the present embodiment, the charcoal-containing frame is a bottomless and uncovered frame, but may be a bottomed and covered frame. Further, in the present embodiment, the charcoal-containing frame has the same horizontal cross-sectional shape as the main body of the bone box, but it may be slightly different from the shape of the main body. This is because if it can be inserted into the main body of the urn and placed between the remains and the inner surface of the main body, its function can be effectively exhibited. In addition, a charcoal-containing frame can be used for an urn that is housed in a grave instead of indoors. Further, the urn of the present invention (bone box) can be used to house and feed the remains of pets such as dogs and cats, not people.
