(About other configurations)
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 8, the nap warmer main body 110 is formed with a groove portion 110d for accommodating the outer rib 125 protruding along the outer shape of the nap warmer lid portion 120, and further sealed. Sexuality is enhanced.
The groove 110d is formed larger than the thickness of the outer rib 125 as shown in FIG. Therefore, the groove 110d can be easily cleaned, and the nap warmer 100 can be kept clean.
[0060]
Further, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 14, the nap warmer main body 110 is formed with an energizing lamp 110e indicating that the heater 111 is energized, so that the user can easily grasp the energized state. .
[0061]
The nap warmer 100 according to the present embodiment is configured as described above. Hereinafter, the operation and the like will be described together with the usage method.
First, the user holds and pulls off the refill container lid 202 of the wet tissue refill container 200 as shown in FIG.
Next, the belt body 142 shown in FIG. 1 is held and the length of the belt is adjusted so that the wet tissue refill container 200 can be inserted.
Then, the wet tissue refill container 200 is placed on the nap warmer lower plate part 130 and is disposed so as to be sandwiched between the nap warmer main body 110 and the nap warmer lower plate part 130 as shown in FIG. At this time, when the opening forming surface 201a of the wet tissue refill container 200 (see FIG. 2) is not in contact with the lower surface casing 114 of the nap warmer main body 110, it is easy to pull the operation ring 141 of FIG. It can be made to contact.
In addition, since the band main body 142 has elasticity, the band main body 142 can be adjusted to an appropriate contact by the extension of the rubber even if the band main body 142 is made to contact a little stronger. In addition, since the contact can be made slightly stronger in this way, the number of retightenings of the belt main body 142 described later can be reduced.
[0062]
Next, by inserting the power plug of FIG. 1 into an outlet, electric power is supplied to the heater 111, and at the same time, the energizing lamp 110e of FIG. 14 is turned on.
When the heater 111 rises to 105 ° C., it is interrupted by the thermal fuse 117 as shown in FIG. 6, thereby preventing the heater 111 from being heated too much.
The heater 111 is controlled to operate at 60 ° C. ± 10 ° C.
When the heater 111 generates heat, as shown in FIG. 4, the heat is refilled from the aluminum plate 113, which is a heat transfer plate, through the lower surface casing 114 and in contact with the lower surface casing 114. It is transmitted to the opening forming surface 201 of the container 200 and transmitted to the wet tissue W1 and the like in the wet tissue refill container 200. At this time, in the wet tissue W1 and the like, the uppermost wet tissue W1 is about 60 ° C., the fifth wet tissue W5 from the top is about 50 ° C., and the tenth from the top is about 45 ° C.
[0063]
Next, when using the wet tissue W1, the user operates the release button 150 in FIG. 12 to release the lock between the lid side locking piece 124 and the main body side locking piece 119, and the nap warmer lid portion. Open 120.
Next, the user pulls out the wet tissue W1 shown in FIG. Since the temperature of the wet tissue W1 is a temperature suitable for use, it is comfortable. In particular, infants and the like do not lose their mood.
When the wet tissue W1 is pulled out in this way, the next wet tissue W2 shown in FIG.
[0064]
Here, once the user closes the nap warmer lid portion 120, a part of the protruding wet tissue W2 is used to take out the distal end portion 121a of the lid-side convex portion 121 and the wet tissue refill container 200 in FIG. It is pushed between the opening 210 and the minute gap d.
Therefore, the wet tissue W2 pushed in between the nap warmer lid 120, the nap warmer main body 110, and the wet tissue refill container 200 reduces the contact area with the air on the surface of the wet tissue W2. Drying can be prevented, and as a result, alteration such as discoloration can be prevented.
[0065]
Next, when the user opens the nap warmer lid 120, the wet tissue W2 that has been warmed to the above-described appropriate temperature and has not been dried can be used.
Further, when the user pulls out the wet tissue W2 or the like, the inclined surface 118b is formed in the wet tissue through-hole 118 of the nap warmer body 110 even if the user pulls out the oblique tissue at an angle, for example, 45 ° as shown by an arrow E in FIG. Therefore, the wet tissue W2 and the like can be taken out smoothly without being caught on the way.
[0066]
Next, when the thickness of the wet tissue refill container 200 becomes thin enough to exceed the allowable range due to the elasticity of the band main body 142 using the wet tissue W2 or the like as described above, the opening of the wet tissue refill container 200 is opened. Since the contact between the forming surface 201a and the nap warmer main body 110 becomes insufficient or separates, the operation ring 141 shown in FIG. 13 is operated to appropriately contact the wet tissue refill container 200 again.
FIG. 16 is a schematic perspective view showing a state in which the wet tissue W1 and the like in the wet tissue refill container 200 are reduced.
As described above, the nap warmer 100 of the present embodiment can be used by heating the last wet tissue by operating the connecting band portion 140. Moreover, it does not dry or yellow until the last wet tissue.
[0067]
Next, when the last wet tissue is used, the band body 142 is lengthened, the gap between the nap warmer body 110 and the nap warmer lower plate part 130 is increased, the wet tissue refill container 200 is removed, and a new wet tissue is removed. The refill container 200 will be mounted.
When the new wet tissue refill container 200 is not attached, the nap warmer lower plate portion 130 having the outer shape reduced to about 5 mm as described above is placed in the skirt portion 110c of the nap warmer main body 110 shown in FIG. By storing, the nap warmer 100 can be made compact and easy to store and carry.
[0068]
The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. For example, a hollow silicone tube or a flexible packing such as foam may be disposed on at least the outer periphery of the front end 121a of the lid-side convex portion in FIG. 8 to further prevent drying.
Similarly, packing is arranged circumferentially on part of the inclined surface 118b of the wet tissue through-hole 118 and the lid-side inclined surface 121b of the nap warmer lid portion 120 so as to be positioned in the minute space d of FIGS. 4 and 9. Also good.
Furthermore, the above-described embodiments may be combined with each other.
