In this embodiment, the heater temperature is maintained at about 60 ° C. by this temperature control. In addition, this heater temperature is not limited to about 60 ° C.
The desired number of tissues themselves should be above body temperature, preferably 4
It is also possible to set the temperature so as to keep it at 0 ° C to 50 ° C. In addition, as a temperature switch that performs temperature control,
Instead of the bimetal switch 14, it is also possible to use a thermostat or an electronic circuit that performs equivalent temperature control. If a heater having a self-temperature control function such as a PTC heater is used as the heater 5, for example,
The bimetal switch 14 becomes unnecessary. Further, by using a heater that also functions as the heat insulating material 6 as the heater case 233, the heat insulating material 6 can be omitted.

Although the shape of the heater 5 in this embodiment is a flat plate shape having an opening at the center, the shape may be changed to a substantially U-shape or a shape separated into a plurality.

If the number of wet tissues used at a time is, for example, five, it is only necessary that the upper five layers be heated to a desired temperature. With such a structure, only the necessary amount of wet tissue needs to be heated,
It is efficient and consumes less power.

[0172]

Embodiment 24 Hereinafter, a twenty-fourth embodiment of the apparatus for heating a wet tissue according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. FIG. 58 is a cross-sectional view of a twenty-fourth embodiment of the wet tissue heating apparatus according to the present invention.

The main body X of the heating device comprises a storage box 18 for storing the flexible wet tissue container 10 in which the wet tissue 11 is stored, and the lid 1 covering the opening of the storage box 18. . The lid 1 has an outer lid 24
0, a heat insulating material 6, a heater 5, and an inner lid 241. An opening communicating with the tissue outlet 16 provided at the center of the outer lid 240 is provided at the center of each of the heat insulating material 6, the heater 5, and the inner lid 241. A passage for taking out the stored wet tissue 11 is formed. In the central part of the lid 1, the tissue take-out opening 16 provided in the central part of the outer lid 240 can be closed in the closed state, and the wet tissue 11 stored in the storage box 18 is taken out in the open state. In order to be able to open and close, a tissue take-off cover 4 pivotally attached to a part of the outer cover 240 is provided.

The heater 5 is composed of, for example, a mica chrome heater, and is maintained at a substantially constant temperature by the bimetal switch 14. In this embodiment, the heater temperature is maintained at about 60 ° C. by this temperature control. The heater temperature is not limited to about 60 ° C., and may be set to a temperature at which a desired number of tissues themselves are maintained at or above body temperature, preferably 40 ° C. to 50 ° C.

Although the shape of the heater 5 in this embodiment is a flat plate shape having an opening at the center, the shape may be changed to a substantially U-shape or a shape separated into a plurality. It is also possible. Inside the storage box 18, a pantograph-type jack 245 is mounted, one end of which is mounted on the bottom of the storage box, and the other end of which is mounted on the contact plate 8 which is in close contact with the bottom surface of the wet tissue container 10. The shape of the contact plate 8 is the wet tissue container 1
4 is substantially the same as the shape of the bottom surface. The jack 245 is driven by a motor 244 and
The height of the can be changed freely.

A pressure-sensitive sensor 243 for detecting the pressing force from the contact plate 8 to know the remaining amount of wet tissue is provided on the surface of the cover 1 facing the contact plate 8. Since the pressure-sensitive sensor 243 is directly attached to the inner lid 241, it is always affected by the heat of the heater 5. In order to correct this effect, a temperature-compensating pressure-sensitive sensor 242 is provided in a place not affected by the pressing force, for example, in a peripheral portion of the inner lid 241. The temperature compensation pressure-sensitive sensor 242 is also heated by the heater 5, and the output is offset due to the influence of heat. Therefore, the influence of the temperature can be canceled by correcting the offset by comparing the outputs of the two sensors.

FIG. 60 is an example of a control circuit diagram of the twenty-fourth embodiment. Signals from the pressure-sensitive sensor 243 and the temperature-compensating pressure-sensitive sensor 242 are respectively amplified by an amplifier, input to an A / D converter, and input as digital values to a one-chip microcomputer. The one-chip microcomputer determines these values and controls the drive circuit of the stepping motor. This control signal is amplified by the amplifier and the stepping motor is driven.

The signals from the pressure sensor 243 and the temperature compensating sensor 242 compensate for the influence of the heat of the heater 5 so that the remaining amount of the wet tissue 11 can be known more accurately.
5 can be controlled to adjust the height of the contact plate 8 so that the wet tissue container 10 is always in close contact with the inner lid 241. As the motor 244, a motor capable of controlling a small angle such as a stepping motor can be suitably used. In this example, a pantograph-type jack is used, but a hydraulically controlled damper or a stepping actuator that performs equivalent control can be used.

[0179]
