Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a medicine container containing medicines such as insect repellents, insecticides, fragrances, and dehumidifiers, and more particularly to a medicine with an indicator having an indicator attached thereto. For containers. [0002] Conventionally, insect repellents, insecticides, fragrances,
Stores chemicals such as dehumidifiers and can be hung on clothes hanging pipes provided inside clothes dance, etc.
There is a medicine container equipped with an indicator for displaying a time for changing the medicine stored in the medicine container. As this medicine container, those described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-163983 or Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-45185 are known. Have been. The drug container described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 1-163983,
A C-shaped hanging member is provided on the upper part of the container main body containing the medicine to be hung on a pipe, and an indicator is attached to a leading end of a cut of the hanging member so as to extend over the container main body. Further, in the medicine container described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-45185, an indicator is mounted on a container body containing the medicine, and a C-shaped hanging for hanging on a pipe is provided above the container body. The container body itself can be provided in an inverted U-shape or can be suspended from a pipe. [0003] In a conventional medicine container, in the former, an indicator is mounted so as to extend over the container body at the leading end of the hanging cut, and usually, the clothes dance dance is performed. When the medicine container is suspended from the pipe, the suspension can be easily suspended, so that the leading end side of the hanging part is located toward the back side of the clothes dance, and the indicator is also located toward the back side. As a result, there is a problem that the medicine container itself becomes an obstacle when recognizing the indicator, or an adjacent hanger or clothes hung on the hanger becomes an obstacle, making it difficult to recognize the indicator. Also, in the latter, when the indicator is attached to the container body and recognizes the indicator when the drug container is suspended on the clothes dance pipe,
There was a problem that the clothes were hindered by clothes hung on hangers inside the clothes dance, and were also difficult to recognize. Further, in the case where the container body itself is inverted U-shaped and suspended on a pipe, there is a problem that the shape of the container body is limited, and the medicine stored in the container or the shape thereof is also limited. An object of the present invention is to solve these problems. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a substantially C-shaped container body which has a thin box-shaped container body which accommodates a medicine therein and which can be freely opened, and which has a cut end at an upper portion of the container body. In a medicine container having a hanging shape in a standing shape, the hanging
