Description

The present invention relates to a new viewing object storage container, and more specifically, to a viewing object storage container capable of exhibiting an effect that the viewing object is excellent in storage stability and the viewer can easily appreciate the viewing object.

In the case of ikebana, flowers, paintings, messages, books, and other ornaments are generally placed in vases, processed into preserved flowers, and sealed in bottles, or works of art such as paintings (art). In the case of a viewing object), it is housed inside the frame and then used for viewing by the viewer.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a "support storage container for cut flowers" for the purpose of maintaining the freshness of cut flowers for a long period of time. This storage container "contacts a water-impermeable vessel with an open top surface, a water-immersed member filled in the lower part of the container and impregnated with a liquid, and the water-impregnated member in the upper part of the container. It is characterized in that the stem of a cut flower is pierced from the open surface of the container to the blocking member and the water-impregnating member to support and store the cut flower stem. ".

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 1-49510

However, any conventional storage container (such as binn) including the storage container disclosed in Patent Document 1 attracts insects and the like if it is simply placed in a vase as it is, for example, when the object to be viewed is a flower. On top of that, when directly exposed to the external environment (eg humidity, temperature, ultraviolet rays), it was difficult to stably preserve the flowers. In addition, some viewers may come into direct contact with the viewing object, and this contact may cause problems such as deterioration and stains on the viewing object.

In addition, when the preserved flower is sealed in a bottle, light enters from the outside of the bottle, so the light irradiation (lighting) inside the viewing object is insufficient, and the viewer may not be able to appreciate the details of the viewing object. be.
Such a problem occurs not only when the object to be stored in the container is a flower (fresh flower, preserved flower, artificial flower, etc.), but also when it is a painting, paper with a message, etc. be.

That is, it can be said that there is still room for improvement in the storage stability and the daylighting property of the conventional storage container.

The present inventor has found the following two points as a result of diligent studies on the conventional storage bins for viewing objects.
(B) By using the internal space of a cylindrical columnar body made of transparent material, which has an openable and closable bottom surface and an internal space, as a storage space for the viewing object, the storage stability of the viewing object is improved (b). Further, since the cylindrical columnar body made of a transparent material has a through hole provided in the elongated direction, not only daylighting from the outside of the tubular columnar body but also daylighting from the through hole is added. , It was found that the daylighting property is improved.

That is, the present invention is excellent in preservability of the viewing object by accommodating the viewing object inside the container to prevent contact by the viewer and deterioration / contamination due to the external environment, and is made of a transparent material. It is an object of the present invention to provide a viewing object storage container that can prevent or reduce the shadow of the viewing object and exert an effect that makes it easy for the viewer to appreciate the viewing object.

Specifically, the present invention is as follows.
[1] An appreciation storage container for accommodating appreciation objects.
A tubular columnar body (10) made of a transparent material, at least one having a bottom surface portion (10a) that can be opened and closed and an internal space portion (10b) for accommodating an object to be viewed inside.
An appreciation storage container composed of a through hole (20) provided in the elongated direction of the tubular columnar body (10).

[2] The viewing object storage container according to [1], further comprising a light emitting device (30) in the through hole (20).

According to the appreciation storage container according to the present invention, by accommodating the appreciation object (flowers, paintings, photographs, paper on which a message is written, etc.) inside the container, the appreciation object is excellently preserved and is made of a transparent material. Since it is configured, it is possible to prevent or reduce the shadow of the viewing object and exert an effect that makes it easy for the viewer to view the viewing object.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view for showing one aspect of the viewing object storage container according to the present invention, respectively.

Hereinafter, the container for accommodating the appreciation object according to the present invention is a container for accommodating the appreciation object, and as shown in the reference numeral 1 of FIG. 1, the tubular columnar body 10 is an indispensable constituent requirement. , Other members (for example, a light source device described later) may be provided.

The "appreciation storage container" according to the present invention is mainly used for various festivals such as ceremonial occasions, graduation ceremonies, and entrance ceremonies, but the purpose of use is not particularly limited. Further, the size and dimensions of the tubular columnar body 10 and the bottom surface portion 10a are not particularly limited, but are appropriately determined mainly depending on the type and size of the viewing object to be accommodated in the internal space portion. To.

The tubular columnar body 10 usually has two bottom surface portions, and at least one of the bottom surface portions is in a state where it can be opened and closed. Here, for example, it can be opened and closed by using an adhesive tape, a clip, or the like, or by having a screw type or a fitting structure.
The shape of the bottom surface is not particularly limited, but in addition to a circle and an ellipse, a polygon such as a triangle or a quadrangle, or a special shape (for example, a star shape, a heart shape, a two-dimensional or three-dimensional shape imitating a character, etc.) ).

Further, as described above, two of the bottom surface portions may be openable and closable, or only one may be openable and the other may be fixed. .. The "openable / closable state" means that at least one of the two bottom portions can be opened when the viewing object is accommodated in the internal space portion, and the viewing object can be accommodated in the internal space portion. When the container is used for appreciation, the bottom surface portion may be in a fixed state (a state in which it cannot be opened). Further, the bottom surface portion may be connected to the tubular columnar body by a connecting member such as a hinge (at the time of opening, the bottom surface portion is connected to the tubular columnar body via the connecting member), and at the time of opening. , It may be completely separated from the tubular columnar body.

A liquid such as water or a preservative solution such as glycerin may be injected into the internal space together with the object to be viewed, but in this case, at least one of the bottom surfaces (more specifically, the container of the present invention is used as a stand or the like). The surface in contact with the table when mounted) must be fixed so that liquid does not leak, or has a structure (rubber packing) that prevents liquid leakage even if it can be opened and closed. Is desirable.
Further, in some cases, among the bottom surface portions, when the container of the present invention is placed on a table or the like, only the surface in contact with the table surface may be present, and the top surface portion (the other bottom surface portion) may not be present. ..

In particular, when a light emitting device (LED light, incandescent light bulb, etc.) described later is installed in the through hole, the two or one bottom portions may or may not be present.
By having such a configuration, since the viewing object can be stored in a sealed state inside, excellent storage stability can be exhibited without being affected by the external environment.

Reference numeral 10b in FIG. 1 indicates an internal space portion. The internal space portion is an internal space composed of an outer surface and an inner surface (a surface on the through hole 20 side described later) of the tubular columnar body 10 and two upper and lower bottom surface portions 10a. Here, the interior space is used for accommodating (storage and accommodating) various appreciation objects such as flowers, paintings, and message documents.

Further, the tubular columnar body is made of a transparent material. A transparent material is a material that transmits natural light (sunlight, etc.) or light from a lighting device. Specifically, glass, transparent resin (acrylic resin (polymethylmethacrylate, etc.), polycarbonate, bird) Acetylcellulose, cycloolefin polymer, polyethylene terephthalate, etc.), etc., which may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Of these, glass and acrylic resins are preferable in that they have a certain degree of strength and transparency.

Further, in the case of a transparent resin, for example, it is desirable that the transparent material contains a filler such as an ultraviolet absorber. If an ultraviolet absorber is included, it is possible to prevent the viewing object from being exposed to ultraviolet rays derived from sunlight and deteriorating the viewing object, as well as improving the ultraviolet durability of the viewing object storage container and improving the usable life. be able to.

It should be noted that the tubular columnar body does not have to be transparent as a whole, and may have a transparent portion to the extent that the viewer can appreciate the viewing object housed in the internal space from the outside, if necessary. There may be an opaque portion.

Further, as shown in No. 20 of FIG. 1, the appreciation storage container of the present invention has a through hole from one bottom surface portion to the other bottom surface portion (in the elongated direction of the tubular columnar body). Here, the bottom surface portion itself may be provided with a hole, or the bottom surface portion may be provided with no hole.
Due to the presence of the through hole 20, the viewing object storage container of the present invention is capable of daylighting from the inside (through hole) in addition to daylighting from the outside, and exhibits excellent daylighting property. Can be done. Therefore, the viewing object is placed under very bright conditions, and there is an advantage that the viewer can easily appreciate the viewing object.

As described above, there is also daylighting through the through hole 20, but a light emitting device using an LED light, an incandescent light bulb, or the like may be installed in the through hole 20. This is because the backlight effect can be further improved by using such a configuration.

Further, the appreciation storage container according to the present invention may be self-supporting (that is, it does not need to be leaned or suspended and can be placed on the floor, desk, etc. by the container itself), and is a stand (standing). You may lean against it or hang it with a string or wire.

According to the present invention, by accommodating the object to be viewed (flowers, paintings, photographs, paper on which a message is written, etc.) inside the container, the object to be viewed is excellent in storage stability and is made of a transparent material. It is possible to provide a viewing object storage container that has excellent daylighting properties, prevents and reduces shadowing of the viewing object, and exerts an effect of facilitating the viewing of the viewing object by the viewer.
