Description

【０００１】
本発明は、液状糊を均一かつ迅速に隅まできれいに塗布することができ、また一回塗布の際の塗布面積を大とすることができるとともに塗布を極めて簡便に行うことができ、さらに液漏れを完全に防止することができるようにした液状糊塗布容器に関する。
【０００２】
【関連技術】
従来のスポンジノズルタイプの液状糊塗布容器１００は、図８に示すごとく、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部１０２と該収容部１０２の上端を開口して形成された吐出口１０４とを有する容器本体１０６と、該容器本体１０６の吐出口１０４に取りつけられるスポンジノズル部材１０８と、下端部を開口部１１０とするとともに上端部を上壁１１２で閉塞し内部を中空部１１４とした中空筒状体１１６からなり該容器本体１０６の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該スポンジノズル部材１０８を収納するキャップ部材１１８と、からなり、該キャップ部材１１８の内部には中蓋部材１２０が固着された構成が一般的である。
【０００３】
この従来の構成では、該キャップ部材１１８を該容器本体１０６に完全にキッチリと装着した場合にのみ該中蓋部材１２０がスポンジノズル部材１０８の塗布面１２２を被覆して該塗布面１２２からの液漏れを防止することができるが、該キャップ部材１０８が少しでも緩むと該中蓋部材１２０と塗布面１２２との間に間隙が生じてしまうため、液漏れが生じてしまうという問題があった。
【０００４】
また、従来の液状糊塗布容器１００のスポンジノズル部材１０８と容器本体１０６との嵌合はネジ締め構造の他に容器本体１０６側に上向きの係止歯部１２４を形成し、一方該スポンジノズル部材１０８の下端面に下向きの係止突起１２６を形成し、該係止歯部１２４に係止突起１２６を係合させることによって固着させる構造が採用されていたが、この固着構造は完全に両者を固着するにはその係合力が充分とはいえない。そのため、該スポンジノズル部材１０８が緩んでしまって該容器本体１０６とスポンジノズル部材１０８との間から液が漏れてしまうという問題もあった。
【０００５】
また、従来のスポンジノズル部材１０８は、図９に示した支持フレーム１２８とスポンジシート１３０と穴あきキャップ１３２とを図１０に示すごとく互いに嵌着して組み立てて形成されるものであった。したがって、図１０に示すごとく、塗布面１２２となるスポンジシート部分１３０の面積は小さくなりかつ塗布面１２２と穴あきキャップ１３２の肩部分１３４との間には段差１３６が形成されてしまい、ここに液状糊が溜まってしまう。したがって、この従来の塗布容器１００を用いて塗布すると塗布部分の端に液状糊が厚く塗布されてしまい、均一塗布が困難であった。かつ、塗布面１２２の面積が小さいために塗布作業者が塗布する際には側面から塗布面１２２を観察することができないため塗布部分を特定できず塗るのに手間がかかり、しかも隅部分の塗布は困難であるという不都合があった。
【０００６】
従来の塗布容器１００においては、キャップ部材１１８と容器本体１０６との係合もネジ係合のみで行われるのが通常であり、キャップが自然に緩んでしまうことも多く、不都合の一つであった。
【０００７】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、上述した従来の液状糊塗布容器の問題点に鑑みなされたもので、液状糊を均一かつ迅速に隅まできれいに塗布することができ、また一回塗布の際の塗布面積を大とすることができるとともに塗布を極めて簡便に行うことができ、さらに液漏れを完全に防止することができるようにした液状糊塗布容器を提供することを目的とする。
【０００８】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するために、本発明の液状糊塗布容器は、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口とを有する容器本体と、該容器本体の吐出口に取りつけられるノズル部材と、下端部を開口するとともに上端部を上壁で閉塞し内部を中空部とした中空筒状体からなり該容器本体の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該ノズル部材を収納するキャップ部材と、からなる液状糊塗布容器において、該キャップ部材の中空部に常時下方に付勢される中蓋部材を設け、該キャップ部材が該容器本体に取りつけられている限り該中蓋部材が該ノズル部材の塗布面を常時被覆するようにし、前記中蓋部材が、下面を前記ノズル部材を被覆する凹部とした中蓋本体と、該中蓋本体の上面中央部に突設されたガイドロッドと、該中蓋本体の上面周辺部に設けられたバネ部材と、からなり、前記キャップ部材の上壁の下面中央部に内部を中空のガイド通路とした筒状壁を垂設し、該ガイドロッドを該ガイド通路に挿通し該中蓋部材を該キャップ部材の内部に装着し、前記中蓋本体から係止突片を側方に延出して設け、一方前記キャップ部材の内面に該係止突片を係止する係止突部を突設し、該係止突片を該係止突部に係止させることによって該中蓋部材を該キャップ部材の内部に装着し、前記キャップ部材の上壁の中央部に貫通孔を開穿し、該貫通孔と前記ガイド通路とを連通し、前記ガイドロッドの先端部が該貫通孔を介して該キャップ部材の上壁上方へ突出可能とされていることを特徴とする。この構成により、塗布面からの液漏れは常時効果的に防止される。
【０００９】
また、上記構成により、該中蓋部材の凹部の上下動がガイドロッドによってガイドされ、安定した動作が行える利点がある。さらに、該ガイドロッドの動きを外部から常時目視確認できる有利さがある。
【００１０】
前記ガイドロッドの側面に一個以上のガイド板を設け、前記ガイド通路に該ガイド板に対応してガイド溝を設けるとともに該ガイド通路を形成する筒状壁の下端面の高さを該ガイド溝部分に向かって低くなるように傾斜ガイド面を形成し、該ガイドロッドを該ガイド通路に挿通する際、該ガイド板が該傾斜ガイド面に沿ってスライドしてガイド通路のガイド溝に誘導されて挿通すれば、前記中蓋部材を位置決めされた状態で前記キャップ部材に装着し該中蓋部材の妄動を防止することが可能となる。
【００１２】
前記中蓋部材の材質としてはバネ部材にバネ作用を付与可能なものであれば、特別の限定はなく、合成樹脂の他に金属材料も使用できるが、合成樹脂材料を用いた一体成形品が好適である。
【００１３】
前記ノズル部材を、塗布面を形成する塗布部材を取りつけるための上部開口部と容器本体の上端部に取りつけられるための下部取付け開口部とを有するフレーム部材と、該上部開口部に取りつけられた塗布部材とから構成し、かつインサートモールドにより一体成形すれば、塗布面を大きくかつ塗布面とフレーム部材との間に段差を設けること無く形成できる。そのため、均一塗布ができ、塗布作業も簡便で、しかも隅部分の塗布も容易に行うことができる。
【００１４】
前記フレーム部材の上端縁部から前記上部開口部方向に複数の支持アームを延出させ、該支持アームの上面側に塗布部材を取りつける構造とすれば、塗布面を形成する塗布部材が支持アームによって弾力的に支持され、弾力ある塗布面が形成されて塗布作業を行い易い塗布面が形成される。
【００１５】
前記容器本体の上端部に径小受け部を形成し、該径小受け部の外周面に径小雄ネジ部を形成し、一方、前記ノズル部材のフレーム部材の内周面に径小雌ネジ部を形成し、該径小雌ネジ部と径小雄ネジ部とを螺合することによって該ノズル部材を該容器本体の径小受け部に螺着し、さらに該径小受け部の最下部に雄ラチェット部分を設け、一方該雄ラチェット部分に対応して該フレーム部材の最下部の内周面に雌ラチェット部分を設ける構成とすれば、該雄ラチェット部分と雌ラチェット部分とを噛合わせることによって該ノズル部材を該容器本体の径小受け部に強固に固着することができ、液漏れ防止機能はさらに向上する。
【００１６】
前記容器本体の吐出口を未使用の状態で閉塞する小蓋体を該吐出口に装着した際に、前記雌ラチェット部分が前記雄ラチェット部分と噛合しないように前記ノズル部材を支える作用を行うことができるように該小蓋体の高さを設定すれば、未使用状態で該雌ラチェット部分と雄ラチェット部分とが噛合してしまうという不都合は完全に回避される。
【００１７】
前記容器本体の上端部の径小受け部の下方に径大受け部を形成し、径大受け部の外周面に径大雄ネジ部を形成し、一方、前記キャップ部材の内周面に径大雌ネジ部を形成し、該径大雌ネジ部と径大雄ネジ部とを螺合することによって該キャップ部材を該容器本体の径大受け部に螺着し、さらに該径大受け部の最下部に側面波形状の係合段部を設け、一方、該波形状係合段部に対応して該キャップ部材の下端円周面を側面波形状の係合端面に形成し、該波形状係合段部と該波形状係合端面を係合させる構造とすれば、該キャップ部材を該容器本体の径大受け部に確実に固定することができる上、キャップ部材の閉まり具合が一目で確認でき、さらに一旦締めると緩みにくく、キャップ部材が外れるなどの不都合はなくなる。
【００１８】
本液状糊塗布容器の第１の態様は、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口とを有する容器本体と、該容器本体の吐出口に取りつけられるノズル部材と、下端部を開口するとともに上端部を上壁で閉塞し内部を中空部とした中空筒状体からなり該容器本体の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該ノズル部材を収納するキャップ部材と、からなる液状糊塗布容器において、該ノズル部材が、塗布面を形成する塗布部材を取りつけるための上部開口部と容器本体の上端部に取りつけられるための下部取付け開口部とを有するフレーム部材と、該上部開口部に取りつけられた塗布部材とからなり、かつインサートモールドにより一体成形されたものであることを特徴とする。この構成により、均一塗布ができ、塗布作業も簡便で、しかも隅部分の塗布も容易に行うことが可能となる。
【００１９】
上記した本液状糊塗布容器の第１の態様においても、前記フレーム部材の上端縁部から前記上部開口部方向に複数の支持アームを延出させ、該支持アームの上面側にスポンジ部材を取りつける構造として、弾力ある塗布面を形成し、塗布作業を行い易くすることができる。
【００２０】
本液状糊塗布容器の第２の態様は、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口とを有する容器本体と、該容器本体の吐出口に取りつけられるノズル部材と、下端部を開口するとともに上端部を上壁で閉塞し内部を中空部とした中空筒状体からなり該容器本体の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該ノズル部材を収納するキャップ部材と、からなる液状糊塗布容器において、該容器本体の上端部に径小受け部を形成し、該径小受け部の外周面に径小雄ネジ部を形成し、一方、該ノズル部材のフレーム部材の内周面に径小雌ネジ部を形成し、該径小雌ネジ部と径小雄ネジ部とを螺合することによって該ノズル部材を該容器本体の径小受け部に螺着し、さらに該径小受け部の最下部に雄ラチェット部分を設け、一方該雄ラチェット部分に対応して該フレーム部材の最下部の内周面に雌ラチェット部分を設け、該雄ラチェット部分と雌ラチェット部分とを噛合わせることによって該ノズル部材を該容器本体の径小受け部に強固に固着することができるようにしたことを特徴とする。この構成により、ノズル部材と容器本体との間の結合の緩みに起因する液漏れが完全に防止される。
【００２１】
上記した本液状糊塗布容器の第２の態様においても、前記容器本体の吐出口を未使用の状態で閉塞する小蓋体を該吐出口に装着した際に、前記雌ラチェット部分が前記雄ラチェット部分と噛合しないように前記ノズル部材を支える作用を行うことができるように該小蓋体の高さを設定し、未使用状態で該雌ラチェット部分と雄ラチェット部分とが噛合してしまう不都合を回避できる。
【００２２】
本液状糊塗布容器の第３の態様は、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口とを有する容器本体と、該容器本体の吐出口に取りつけられるノズル部材と、下端部を開口するとともに上端部を上壁で閉塞し内部を中空部とした中空筒状体からなり該容器本体の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該ノズル部材を収納するキャップ部材と、からなる液状糊塗布容器において、該容器本体の上端部の径小受け部の下方に径大受け部を形成し、径大受け部の外周面に径大雄ネジ部を形成し、一方、前記キャップ部材の内周面に径大雌ネジ部を形成し、該径大雌ネジ部と径大雄ネジ部とを螺合することによって該キャップ部材を該容器本体の径大受け部に螺着し、さらに該径大受け部の最下部に側面波形状の係合段部を設け、一方、該波形状係合段部に対応して該キャップ部材の下端円周面を側面波形状の係合端面に形成し、該波形状係合段部と該波形状係合端面を係合させることによって該キャップ部材を該容器本体の径大受け部に確実に固定することができるようにしたことを特徴とする。この構成により、キャップ部材の閉まり具合が一目で確認でき、さらに一旦締めると緩みにくく、キャップ部材が外れるなどの不都合は皆無となる。
【００２３】
上記したノズル部材としてはスポンジノズル部材が好適に用いられ、その場合塗布部材としてはスポンジ部材が用いられる。
【００２４】
本液状糊塗布容器用小蓋体は、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口とを有する容器本体と、該容器本体の吐出口に取りつけられるノズル部材と、下端部を開口するとともに上端部を上壁で閉塞し内部を中空部とした中空筒状体からなり該容器本体の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられ該ノズル部材を収納するキャップ部材と、からなる液状糊塗布容器において、該容器本体の吐出口を未使用の状態で閉塞する小蓋体であり，主板と該主板の上下両面に嵌入部を設け、いずれの嵌入部を該吐出口に嵌入しても該吐出口を閉塞することができるようにしたことを特徴とする。
【００２５】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に本発明の実施の形態を添付図面中図１〜７に基づいて説明する。
【００２６】
図中、１２は本発明に係る液状糊塗布容器で、液状糊を収容する筒状中空収容部１４と該収容部の上端を開口して形成された吐出口１６とを有する容器本体１８を包含する。
【００２７】
２０は該容器本体１８の吐出口１６に取りつけられるスポンジノズル部材である。該スポンジノズル部材２０は、塗布面２４を形成するスポンジ部材２６を取りつけるための上部開口部２８と、容器本体１８の上端部に取りつけられるための下部取付け開口部３０とを有するフレーム部材３２と、該上部開口部２８に取りつけられたスポンジ部材２６とからなり、かつインサートモールド法により一体成形されている。３１は該フレーム部材３２の上端縁部から該上部開口部２８方向に延出せしめられた複数の支持アームで、該支持アーム３２の上面側にスポンジ部材２６が取りつけられる。３３は該支持アーム３１の基端部に設けられた円環状の枠体である。
【００２８】
インサートモールド法による一体成形により、従来の組み付け加工によって形成されたスポンジノズル部材１０８（図１４及び図１５）に比較して、スポンジノズル部材２０の塗布面２４を大きく形成することができ、また従来品に存在した段差１３６（図１５）がないので、均一迅速に、隅まできれいに塗れるという利点がある。３３は該支持アーム３１の基端部に設けられた円環状の枠体である。
【００２９】
３４はキャップ部材で、下端部を開口部３６とするとともに上端部を上壁３８で閉塞し内部を中空部４０とした中空筒状体４２からなり、該容器本体１８の上端部に着脱自在にとりつけられかつ該スポンジノズル部材２０を内部に収納する。
【００３０】
前記容器本体１８の上端部には径小受け部４４が形成され、該径小受け部４４の外周面には径小雄ネジ部４６が形成されている。一方、前記スポンジノズル部材２０のフレーム部材３２の内周面には径小雌ネジ部４８が形成されている。
【００３１】
該径小雌ネジ部４８と径小雄ネジ部４６とを螺合することによって、該スポンジノズル部材２０は、該容器本体１８の径小受け部４４に螺着される。
【００３２】
５０は該径小受け部４４の最下部に設けられた雄ラチェット部分である。該雄ラチェット部分５０に対応して該フレーム部材３２の最下部の内周面には、雌ラチェット部分５２が設けられている。該雄ラチェット部分５０と雌ラチェット部分５２とを噛合わせることによって該スポンジノズル部材２０を該容器本体１８の径小受け部４４に強固に固着することができる。
【００３３】
５４は該キャップ部材３４の中空部４０に常時下方に付勢されるように取りつけられる中蓋部材である。該中蓋部材５４は、下面を前記スポンジノズル部材２０を被覆する凹部５６とした中蓋本体５８と、該中蓋本体５８の上面中央部に突設されたガイドロッド６０と、該中蓋本体５８の上面周辺部に下端部が固着され上端部が自由端とされたバネ部材６２と、該中蓋本体５８の上面周縁部から側方に延出して設けられた係止突片６４とを有している。６６、６６は該ガイドロッド６０の側面に相対向して設けられた一対のガイド板である。図示の例では該バネ部材６２は、その下端部が中蓋本体５４の上面周辺部に固着された場合を示したが、固着することなく載置する場合でも同様の作用を果たすことができる。
【００３４】
前記キャップ部材３４の上壁３８の下面中央部には、内部を中空のガイド通路６８とした筒状壁７０が垂設されている。該ガイド通路６８の断面形状は略十字形とされ、該ガイド通路６８を形成する筒状壁７０の下端面の高さは略十字形のガイド通路６８の部分に向かって低くなるように傾斜ガイド面７２が形成されていいる。
【００３５】
このように、傾斜ガイド面７２を形成することにより、該ガイドロッド６０を該ガイド通路６８に挿通する際、該ガイド板６６が該傾斜ガイド面７２に沿ってスライドして略十字形のガイド通路６８の相対向する一対のガイド溝６８ａ，６８ａに誘導されて挿通される。したがって、該中蓋部材５４は位置決めされた状態で、該キャップ部材３４に装着され、該中蓋部材５４の妄動が防止される。なお、ガイド板６６は一個以上設ければよく、ガイド溝６８ａも、かならずしも十字形に４個設ける必要はなく、ガイド板６６の設置個数に応じて適宜個数が設けられる。
【００３６】
７４は前記容器本体１８の上端部の前記径小受け部４４の下方に形成された径大受け部である。該径大受け部７４の外周面には径大雄ネジ部７６が形成されている。一方、前記キャップ部材３４の内周面には径大雌ネジ部７８が形成されている。
【００３７】
該径大雄ネジ部７６と該径大雌ネジ部７８とを螺合することによって、該キャップ部材３４は該容器本体１８の径大受け部７４に螺着される。
【００３８】
８０は該径大受け部７４の最下部に設けられた側面波形状の係合段部である。一方、該波形状係合段部８０に対応して該キャップ部材３４の下端円周面には側面波形状の係合端面８２が形成されている。
【００３９】
該波形状係合段部８０と該波形状係合端面８２を係合させることによって、該キャップ部材３４は該容器本体１８の径大受け部７４に確実に固定され、キャップ部材３４の閉まり具合が一目で確認でき、さらに一旦締めると緩みにくいという利点がある。
【００４０】
８４は前記キャップ部材３４の内面に突設された係止突部で、前記中蓋部材５４の係止突片６４を該係止突部８４に係止させることによって該中蓋部材５４を該キャップ部材３４の内部に装着することができる。
【００４１】
８６は該キャップ部材３４の上壁３８の中央部に開穿された貫通孔である。該貫通孔８６と前記ガイド通路６８とを連通し、前記ガイドロッド６０の先端部か該貫通孔８６を介して該キャップ部材３４の上壁３８の上方へ突出可能となる。このような構成により、本発明の塗布容器１２の使用者は、該ガイドロッド６０の作動状態を常時目視確認することができるという利点がある。
【００４２】
前記した中蓋部材５４は樹脂材料等を一体成形加工することにより得られる一体成形品とするのがある点であるが、その他に、金属材料等によって形成された各部材を接合することによって形成することもできる。
【００４３】
図１において、符号８８は、前記容器本体１８の吐出口１６を未使用の状態で閉塞する小蓋体である。該小蓋体８８は従来のものと同様に単に該容器本体１８収容された液状糊の液漏れを防止することは勿論であるが、その他に該小蓋体８８の高さを従来のものよりも高い所定の高さに設定することにより次の作用も行う。即ち、該小蓋体８８を該吐出口１６に装着した際に、前記雌ラチェット部分５２が前記雄ラチェット部分５０と噛合しない状態で前記スポンジノズル部材２０を支えることができる。したがって、未使用の状態で該雌ラチェット部分５２と雄ラチェット部分５０とが誤って噛合して強固に接合してしまうという事故は皆無となる。該小蓋体８８は主板の上下両面に嵌入部８８ａ、８８ｂを突設した構造を有している。該嵌入部８８ａ、８８ｂのいずれもが容器本体１８の吐出口１６に嵌入し、吐出口１６を閉塞することができる形状を有している。したがって、吐出口１６を閉塞する際に嵌入部８８ａ、８８ｂのいずれをも使用できるので便利であり、また外すときは外側に位置する嵌入部を利用して簡単に外すことができるという利点がある。
【００４４】
以上の構成により、その作用を説明する。使用開始にあたっては、まず、スポンジノズル部材２０を該容器本体１８の径小受け部４４から外し、そして小蓋体８８を容器本体１８の吐出口１６から取り外す。この時、小蓋体８８の高さは、スポンジノズル部材２０の雌ラチェット部分５２が容器本体１８の雄ラチェット部分５０と噛合しない状態で容器本体１８を支えるように所定の高さに設定されている。
【００４５】
次いで、該スポンジノズル部材２０を該容器本体１８の径小受け部４４に取りつけ、該径小受け部４４の径小雄ネジ部４６に該スポンジノズル部材２０の径小雌ネジ部４８をネジ込むことによって螺着し、さらに径小受け部４４の最下部に設けられた雄ラチェット部分５０とスポンジノズル部材２０の雌ラチェット部分５２とを噛合させることによって該スポンジノズル部材２０を該径小受け部４４に強固に固着し、緩みは完全に防止され、したがって、液漏れもなくなる。
【００４６】
キャップ部材３４の中空部４０には常時下方に付勢されるように中蓋部材５４が取りつけられている。該中蓋部材５４は係止突片６４とキャップ部材３４の内部の係止突部８４との係合作用により着脱時に該キャップ部材３４の内部に装着可能とされている。該中蓋部材５４の装着に際しては、傾斜ガイド面７２のガイド作用を利用することにより、ガイドロッド６０及びガイド板６４をガイド通路６８に容易に挿通することができる。また、挿通後は該中蓋部材５４は位置決めされた状態でガイド通路６８に装着されるので、中蓋部材５４が妄動することはない。
【００４７】
該中蓋部材５４がキャップ部材３４に装着されているか否かは通常は外部からは見えない。しかし、図示例のように、キャップ部材３４の上壁３８に貫通孔８６を開穿し、該貫通孔８６にガイドロッド６０が挿通される構成とすれば、該ガイドロッド６０の動きを外部から常時目視確認できる有利さがある。
【００４８】
該中蓋部材５４がキャップ部材３４の内部に装着された状態で、該キャップ部材３４を容器本体１８の径大受け部７４に取りつけ、径大雄ネジ部７６と径大雌ネジ部７８とを螺合することによって該スポンジノズル部材２０の塗布面２４を中蓋部材５４の凹部５６が押圧被覆するようになる。該キャップ部材３４の径大雌ネジ部７８を径大雄ネジ部７６に対して最後までネジ込むようにすれば該塗布面２４が強く押圧被覆されることは勿論であるが、径大雌ネジ部７８と径大雄ネジ部７６の螺合の初期の段階でも該中蓋部材５４の凹部５６による塗布面２４の被覆は完全に行われ、例え塗布容器１２をラフに扱っても液漏れすることはなく、液漏れ防止が有効に行われるものである。
【００４９】
スポンジノズル部材２０はインサートモールド法により一体成形されたものであるから、塗布面２４を大きく形成することができ、また塗布面２４とフレーム部材３２との間には段差も存在しない。そのため、液状糊を塗布した場合に塗布部分の端に液状糊が厚く塗布されてしまうことはなく、均一に塗布することができる。また、塗布面２４の面積が大きいために塗布作業者が塗布する際には側面から塗布面２４を観察しながら、塗布することができるので塗布作業が簡便となり、しかも隅部分の塗布も容易に行うことが可能となる。また、塗布面２４を形成するスポンジ部材２６は弾力ある支持アーム３１によってその下面側が支持されていいるので、塗布面２４の全体が弾力ある状体となり、塗布作業は一段と行い易くなる。
【００５０】
塗布作業の終了後、キャップ部材３４を容器本体１８の径大受け部７４に装着するが、このとき、キャップ部材３４の径大雌ネジ部７８を容器本体１８の径大雄ネジ部７６にネジ込むことにより螺着する。その際、キャップ部材３４の該形状係合端面８２と容器本体１８の該形状係合段部８０を係合させる。これにより、キャップ部材３４の閉まり具合が一目で確認でき、さらに一旦締めると緩みにくく、キャップ部材３４が外れるなどの不都合は皆無となる。
【００５１】
上記図示例では、中蓋部材５４の係止突片６４をキャップ部材３４の係止突部８４に係止させることによって中蓋部材５４をキャップ部材３４の内部に装着した例を示したが、その他の装着手段を適用することも可能であり、例えば、ガイドロッド６０に膨大部を形成するとともにガイド通路６８に係止段部を形成しておき、該膨大部を該係止段部に係止させることによって、中蓋部材５４をキャップ部材３４内に装着することもできる。
【００５２】
また、上記図示例ではノズル部材としてスポンジノズル部材を用いた例を示したが、他のタイプのノズル部材にも適用可能なことは勿論である。
【００５３】
【発明の効果】
以上述べたごとく、本発明の液状糊塗布容器は、液状糊を均一かつ迅速に隅まできれいに塗布することができ、また一回の塗布の際の塗布面積を大とすることができるとともに塗布を極めて簡便に行うことができ、さらに液漏れを完全に防止することができるという著大な効果を奏するものである。

  As shown in FIG. 8, a conventional sponge nozzle type liquid paste application container 100 has a cylindrical hollow storage portion 102 for storing liquid paste and a discharge port 104 formed by opening the upper end of the storage portion 102. A container body 106, a sponge nozzle member 108 attached to the discharge port 104 of the container body 106, a hollow cylindrical shape having a lower end portion as an opening portion 110, an upper end portion closed with an upper wall 112, and an inner portion as a hollow portion 114 And a cap member 118 that is detachably attached to the upper end of the container main body 106 and accommodates the sponge nozzle member 108. An inner lid member 120 is fixed inside the cap member 118. Is common.
[0003]
  In this conventional configuration, the inner lid member 120 covers the application surface 122 of the sponge nozzle member 108 only when the cap member 118 is completely attached to the container main body 106, and the liquid from the application surface 122 is removed. Although leakage can be prevented, there is a problem in that if the cap member 108 is loosened, a gap is generated between the inner lid member 120 and the coating surface 122, resulting in liquid leakage.
[0004]
  Further, the sponge nozzle member 108 and the container main body 106 of the conventional liquid glue application container 100 are fitted with a screw fastening structure, and an upward locking tooth portion 124 is formed on the container main body 106 side, while the sponge nozzle member 108 has a structure in which a locking protrusion 126 facing downward is formed on the lower end surface of the 108 and is fixed by engaging the locking protrusion 126 with the locking tooth portion 124. The engagement force is not sufficient for fixing. As a result, the sponge nozzle member 108 is loosened and the liquid leaks from between the container body 106 and the sponge nozzle member 108.
[0005]
  Further, the conventional sponge nozzle member 108 is formed by fitting and assembling the support frame 128, sponge sheet 130, and perforated cap 132 shown in FIG. 9 as shown in FIG. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 10, the area of the sponge sheet portion 130 that becomes the application surface 122 is reduced, and a step 136 is formed between the application surface 122 and the shoulder portion 134 of the perforated cap 132. Liquid glue accumulates. Therefore, when this conventional application container 100 is applied, the liquid paste is thickly applied to the end of the application part, and uniform application is difficult. In addition, since the area of the application surface 122 is small, the application surface 122 cannot be observed from the side surface when the application operator applies the application surface, so that the application portion cannot be specified, and it takes time and effort to apply the corner portion. Had the disadvantage of being difficult.
[0006]
  In the conventional application container 100, the cap member 118 and the container body 106 are usually engaged only by screw engagement, and the cap is naturally loosened, which is one of the disadvantages. It was.

[0043]
  In FIG. 1, the code | symbol 88 is a small cover body which obstruct | occludes the discharge outlet 16 of the said container main body 18 in an unused state. Of course, the small lid 88 simply prevents the liquid glue contained in the container body 18 from leaking in the same manner as the conventional one, but the height of the small lid 88 is higher than that of the conventional one. The following action is also performed by setting the height to a predetermined height. That is, when the small lid 88 is attached to the discharge port 16, the sponge nozzle member 20 can be supported in a state where the female ratchet portion 52 does not mesh with the male ratchet portion 50. Therefore, there is no accident that the female ratchet portion 52 and the male ratchet portion 50 are erroneously meshed and firmly joined in an unused state. The small lid 88 has a structure in which fitting portions 88a and 88b are projected from both upper and lower surfaces of the main plate. Each of the fitting portions 88 a and 88 b has a shape that can be fitted into the discharge port 16 of the container body 18 and can close the discharge port 16.

[0044]
  The operation of the above configuration will be described. In starting the use, first, the sponge nozzle member 20 is removed from the small diameter receiving portion 44 of the container body 18, and the small lid 88 is removed from the discharge port 16 of the container body 18. At this time, the height of the small lid 88 is set to a predetermined height so as to support the container body 18 in a state where the female ratchet portion 52 of the sponge nozzle member 20 does not mesh with the male ratchet portion 50 of the container body 18. Yes.
[0045]
  Next, the sponge nozzle member 20 is attached to the small diameter receiving portion 44 of the container body 18, and the small diameter female screw portion 48 of the sponge nozzle member 20 is screwed into the small diameter male screw portion 46 of the small diameter receiving portion 44. Then, the male ratchet portion 50 provided at the lowermost portion of the small diameter receiving portion 44 and the female ratchet portion 52 of the sponge nozzle member 20 are engaged with each other to engage the sponge nozzle member 20 with the small diameter receiving portion. It adheres firmly to 44 and is completely prevented from loosening, thus eliminating liquid leakage.

  An inner lid member 54 is attached to the hollow portion 40 of the cap member 34 so as to be always biased downward. The inner lid member 54 can be attached to the inside of the cap member 34 at the time of attachment / detachment by the engaging action of the engaging protrusion 64 and the engaging protrusion 84 inside the cap member 34. When the inner lid member 54 is mounted, the guide rod 60 and the guide plate 64 can be easily inserted into the guide passage 68 by utilizing the guide action of the inclined guide surface 72. In addition, after the insertion, the inner lid member 54 is mounted on the guide passage 68 in a positioned state, so that the inner lid member 54 does not move.
[0047]
  Whether or not the inner lid member 54 is attached to the cap member 34 is normally not visible from the outside. However, if the through hole 86 is opened in the upper wall 38 of the cap member 34 and the guide rod 60 is inserted into the through hole 86 as shown in the illustrated example, the movement of the guide rod 60 is externally controlled. There is an advantage that it can always be visually confirmed.
[0048]
  With the inner lid member 54 mounted in the cap member 34, the cap member 34 is attached to the large diameter receiving portion 74 of the container main body 18, and the large diameter male screw portion 76 and the large diameter female screw portion 78 are screwed. By combining, the application surface 24 of the sponge nozzle member 20 is pressed and covered by the concave portion 56 of the inner lid member 54. Of course, if the large-diameter female screw portion 78 of the cap member 34 is screwed into the large-diameter male screw portion 76 to the end, the coating surface 24 is strongly pressed and covered. The coating surface 24 is completely covered with the concave portion 56 of the inner lid member 54 even at the initial stage of screwing of the large diameter male threaded portion 78 and the large diameter screw portion 76, and even if the coating container 12 is handled roughly, liquid leakage does not occur. Therefore, prevention of liquid leakage is effectively performed.
[0049]
  Since the sponge nozzle member 20 is integrally formed by the insert molding method, the application surface 24 can be formed large, and there is no step between the application surface 24 and the frame member 32. Therefore, when the liquid paste is applied, the liquid paste is not thickly applied to the end of the application portion, and can be applied uniformly. In addition, since the area of the application surface 24 is large, when the application operator applies, it can be applied while observing the application surface 24 from the side surface, so that the application work is simple, and the corner portion can be easily applied. Can be done. Further, since the lower surface side of the sponge member 26 forming the application surface 24 is supported by the elastic support arm 31, the entire application surface 24 becomes an elastic body, and the application work becomes easier.
[0050]
  After completion of the coating operation, the cap member 34 is mounted on the large diameter receiving portion 74 of the container body 18. At this time, the large diameter female screw portion 78 of the cap member 34 is screwed into the large diameter male screw portion 76 of the container body 18. Screwed. At that time, the shape engagement end face 82 of the cap member 34 and the shape engagement step 80 of the container body 18 are engaged. Thereby, the closed state of the cap member 34 can be confirmed at a glance, and further, once tightened, it is difficult to loosen, and there is no inconvenience such as the cap member 34 coming off.
[0051]
  In the illustrated example, the example in which the inner lid member 54 is mounted inside the cap member 34 by locking the locking protrusion 64 of the inner lid member 54 to the locking protrusion 84 of the cap member 34 is shown. It is also possible to apply other mounting means. For example, an enormous portion is formed in the guide rod 60 and an engaging step is formed in the guide passage 68, and the enormous portion is engaged with the engaging step. The inner lid member 54 can be mounted in the cap member 34 by stopping.
[0052]
  Moreover, although the example which used the sponge nozzle member as a nozzle member was shown in the said example of illustration, it is needless to say that it is applicable also to another type of nozzle member.
[0053]
【The invention's effect】
  As described above, the liquid paste application container of the present invention can apply liquid paste uniformly and quickly to the corner, and can increase the application area at the time of one application.
