Description

In the present invention, measures are taken to fix the extension tube for spraying the contents of the aerosol container, in particular, to position the spray part of the flexible extension tube at the intended location and to stabilize the spray direction from the spray part. The present invention relates to a fixing jig for an extension tube for spraying the contents of an aerosol container.

FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a conventional spraying method. The figure shows a state in which a chemical such as a deodorant or a bactericide, which is the contents of an aerosol container, is sprayed on the opening of the air conditioner unit exposed by removing the lid of the glove box of an automobile. In the figure, 1 indicates an opening portion of an air conditioner unit, and 100 indicates an aerosol container. In this spraying method, the spraying portion (spraying nozzle) provided on the push button 120 of the aerosol container 100 held in one hand is brought close to the opening portion 1 and then the push button 120 is pushed down from the spraying portion. The procedure of spraying the drug on the opening portion 1 is performed.

Further, in another conventional spraying method, in order to make the spraying part of the spraying extension tube of the aerosol container face the air conditioner suction part of the vehicle, a holding member holding a portion near the tip of the extension tube is used. It was also practiced to attach it to the edge of the air conditioner suction part of the vehicle with double-sided tape.

However, in the conventional spraying method shown in FIG. 7, although it is easy to spray the drug on the intended spraying area, the hand moves and the spraying direction tends to be unstable, and in particular, continuous spraying for about 90 seconds is performed. The tendency becomes remarkable when it is necessary to do it. Such a situation can occur similarly when the spray container of the prior example described in Patent Document 1 is used. Other precedents only disclose that the spray operation is performed by inserting a resin tube into the vehicle through a gap such as a door, and the spray area in the vehicle is defined as the intended location or a long resin. Nothing is said about stabilizing the spray direction from the plastic tube.

Further, in other conventional spraying methods, depending on the shape of the edge of the air conditioner suction part of the vehicle, it may be difficult or difficult to attach the holding member holding the portion near the tip of the extension tube with double-sided tape. Sometimes I can't.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the spraying portion attached to the tip of the extension tube for spraying the contents of the aerosol container should be stably positioned at the intended location in the intended direction. Not only can the fixing jig be provided, but the fixing jig can be attached from such a spray area even if the fixing jig is attached and fixed only in a place away from the spray area. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fixing jig capable of stably positioning the spray portion attached to the tip of the extension tube at the intended location in the intended direction after being attached to a distant location. ..

The fixing jig for the extension tube for spraying the contents of the aerosol container according to the present invention is a fixing jig for positioning the spraying portion attached to the tip of the extension tube for spraying the contents of the aerosol container, through which the extension tube is inserted. The contents of the aerosol container have an elongated tube that is possible and can be bent and deformed and has a self-retaining property that retains the shape after bending, and an elongated tube holding mechanism that holds an arbitrary position in the axial direction of the elongated tube. It consists of a jig body that can be attached and fixed at any location near the spray area.

According to the fixing jig configured in this way, the flexible extension tube inserted through the elongated tube is supported by the elongated tube and maintained in the same shape as the elongated tube. For this reason, if the vicinity of the attachment point of the spray portion at the tip of the extension tube inserted through the elongated tube is located at the tip portion of the elongated tube, the spray portion at the tip of the extension tube is positioned according to the deployment location of the elongated tube. Will be done. On the other hand, the elongated tube can be held in the jig body by the elongated tube holding mechanism of the jig body at an arbitrary position in the axial direction, and the jig body can be held at an arbitrary position near the spray region of the contents of the aerosol container. Since it can be pasted and fixed to, if the jig body is pasted and fixed at such an arbitrary stickable location, even if the jig body is pasted at the nearest position of the spray area, Also, the spray portion can be positioned at the intended location in the intended direction. Further, the self-retaining property of the elongated tube can be utilized to bend the elongated tube into a bent shape or a curved shape to change the position and orientation of the spray portion as intended. Therefore, according to this invention, even if the jig body can be attached only to a place away from the spray area, the jig body can be attached to a place away from such a spray area. The spray portion attached to the tip of the extension tube can be stably positioned at the intended location in the intended direction.

In the present invention, the jig main body is composed of a substrate integrally molded with resin and a hook portion provided on the surface side of the substrate to form an elongated tube holding mechanism in cooperation with the substrate. It is possible to adopt a configuration in which the adhesive layer provided on the back surface side allows the adhesive layer to be attached and fixed at an arbitrary location near the spray region.

According to this configuration, the substrate and the hook portion constituting the jig main body can be provided at low cost as an integrally molded resin product. In addition, the elongated tube holding mechanism of the jig body holds the elongated tube in the jig body, and the adhesive layer allows the jig body to be attached and fixed at any location near the spray area, so that it can be attached to the tip of the extension tube. The attached spray part can be positioned.

In the present invention, the hook portion extends from the rising portion in the shape of a plate piece raised from the substrate in the direction along the substrate and cooperates with the substrate to make the elongated tube orthogonal to the plate surface of the substrate. A chevron-shaped bulge-shaped engagement that is provided on at least one side of the projecting piece and the substrate to hold the elongated tube in the direction along the substrate in cooperation with the rising portion. It is possible to adopt a configuration in which the joint portion and the joint portion are provided.

According to this configuration, since the elongated tubes are sandwiched by the jig main body in two directions orthogonal to each other, it is unlikely that the elongated tubes will fall off from the jig main body.

It is desirable that the elongated tube be a metal tube. According to this, the self-retaining property of the elongated tube is likely to be exhibited.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to stably position the spray portion attached to the tip of the extension tube for spraying the contents of the aerosol container at the intended location in the intended direction. Even if the jig body of the fixing jig can be attached only to a place away from the spray area, after attaching the jig body to any place away from such a spray area. , The spray portion attached to the tip of the extension tube can be stably positioned at the intended location in the intended direction. Therefore, when spraying chemicals such as deodorants and bactericides, which are the contents of the aerosol container, on the opening of the air conditioner unit of the automobile, it is easy to set the spray area at the intended location, in particular. Stable spraying work can be performed even when continuous spraying for about 90 seconds is required. Moreover, regardless of the shape of the edge of the air conditioner suction portion, there is the convenience that the jig body can be attached and fixed at an arbitrary location near the spray region for use.
