Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a desiccant holder inserted into a container.
[0002]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
It has been conventionally known that a desiccant is enclosed in a container so as not to wet the contents. However, in the conventional one, the desiccant is directly inserted into the container together with the contents. When removing the lid and shaking out the contents, there was a problem that the desiccant was also released.
It is a technical object of the present invention to solve the above-described problems, and the desiccant is held in the container by holding the desiccant with the desiccant holder and mounting the holder in the container. An object of the present invention is to provide a desiccant holder.
[0003]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention for achieving the above technical problem, the desiccant holder, the desiccant was fitted fastened, and the small diameter of the holding tube from the container opening, at intervals on the circumferential surface of the holding cylinder A support rod having flexibility and extending upward so that the tip extends outward, the tip of the support rod is elastically contacted to the inner surface of the container shoulder, and the holding cylinder is positioned at the bottom of the vessel The structure characterized by having is adopted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the figure, A is a container, which is formed of glass or hard synthetic resin.
B is a cap and C is a desiccant holder, both of which are formed of synthetic resin. D is a desiccant.
[0005]
The container A is composed of a mouth tube portion 1 and a shoulder portion 2, a circular body portion 3 and a bottom portion 4, and a screw 5 for screwing a cap B is engraved on the outer periphery of the mouth tube portion 1. Yes.
As the contents of the container, granular or powdery food, medicine supplies, etc. are accommodated.
[0006]
The cap B includes a top wall 6 and a side cylinder wall 7, and an engagement ring 8 is erected on the top wall 6, and an annular packing 9 is disposed between the engagement ring 8 and the side cylinder wall 7. A screw 10 that is screwed into the screw 5 is formed on the inner periphery of the side cylinder wall 7.
[0007]
The desiccant holder C includes a holding cylinder 11 and a support rod 12 erected on the holding cylinder 11.
A protruding ring 13 protruding inward is formed at the upper end of the holding cylinder 11, and a bulging ring 14 bulging inward is provided at the lower end so as to hold the desiccant D.
Three support rods 12 are erected at the upper end of the holding tube 11 at an equal angle, and the support rods 12 extend from the periphery of the holding tube 11 so as to be inclined and spread outward.
The tip 12a of the support rod 12 has a height and a spread diameter so as to elastically contact the inner surface of the shoulder 2 of the container A, preferably the inner surface of the boundary between the shoulder 2 and the body 3.
[0008]
The desiccant D is a cylinder made of a known desiccant obtained by solidifying a solid or granular material, and is encased in a breathable film.
The desiccant D is inserted into the holding cylinder 11 and fastened and held by the protruding ring 13 and the bulging ring 14.
[0009]
When the desiccant holder C holding the desiccant D is inserted into the container A, the support rod 12 is formed of a synthetic resin and has flexibility, so that it can be easily inserted from the mouthpiece 1. When the holding cylinder 11 is positioned on the bottom surface of the container A, the tip 12a of the support rod 12 expands and elastically contacts the inner surface of the shoulder 2 of the container to maintain the desiccant holder C in a fixed position.
[0010]
Next, a second embodiment of the desiccant holder will be described with reference to FIGS. In the figure, A1 is a container, C1 is a desiccant holder, and D1 is a long cylinder-shaped desiccant.
The desiccant holder C1 includes a holding cylinder 20 and a support rod 21, and the upper end of the holding cylinder 20 is covered with an upper plate 23 having several openings 22 formed therein.
Several ribs 24 are formed in the inner circumference of the holding cylinder 20 in the vertical direction to fasten the inserted desiccant D1.
[0011]
The support rod 21 is arranged at an equal angle to the holding cylinder 20 and is continuously provided so as to extend upward from the lower end periphery of the holding cylinder 20.
The tip 21a of the support rod 21 is elastically brought into contact with the inner surface of the shoulder of the container A1 when the desiccant holder C1 is inserted, as in the above embodiment, so that the desiccant holder C1 is maintained in a fixed position.
[0012]
In the above embodiment, the desiccant D1 is a long cylinder-shaped desiccant and has a large capacity with respect to the container. However, the size of the desiccant depends on the moisture absorption efficiency of the desiccant and the type of contents. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the size of the desiccant holder can be appropriately changed in accordance with the size of the desiccant in each of the embodiments.
[0013]
Further, as the desiccant, in each of the above embodiments, a cylindrical solid is used. However, it may be a powder or granular desiccant packed in a bag. A holding rod formed from several filaments or thin plates can also be used.
[0014]
【The invention's effect】
Since this invention is comprised as mentioned above, there exists the following effect.
By providing a support rod that elastically contacts the inner surface of the container shoulder, the desiccant holder is maintained at a fixed position in the container, and the desiccant does not come out together with the contents when the contents are shaken out.
