【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はチューブ容器に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
チューブ容器として、ポンプ付きのものが提案されている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。
【０００３】
このポンプ付きのチューブ容器は、可撓性に富む合成樹脂製内筒と、可撓性に乏しい合成樹脂製の外筒とからなる内外二重筒下端を、共に挟着させて板状シール部とした胴部形成部材と、口頸部下端から弾性肩部を介して連結短筒を垂下する合成樹脂製口部材とを、上記内外二重筒の上端部を連結短筒に嵌合させて、それ等内筒、外筒、連結短筒の各上端部を共に接合させ、かつ上記板状シール部と内筒及び連結短筒との接合部分とを除く外筒部分の一部に、外気吸入孔を穿設した合成樹脂製チューブ容器と、上記口頸部外面に装着筒を気密に嵌合させ、かつシリンダを容器上部内へ垂下する縦型ポンプとで形成している。

【００１０】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施例の形態を図面を参照して説明する。
【００１１】
本発明のチューブ容器Ａは、口頸部２の上端開口を閉塞して収納液噴出用の吐出具Ｂを装着してなるものである。
【００１２】
チューブ容器Ａは、外壁材３と、内壁材４とで構成しており、外壁材３に外気導入口５を設けている。
【００１３】
外壁材３は合成樹脂製で、下端をシールした筒状の胴部６上端より肩部７を介して口頸部２を起立しており、全体に可撓性に乏しく構成している。ここでいう可撓性に乏しいとは、比較的弾力性があり、変形しても元の状態に戻ることができる性質、或いは、変形しずらく剛性を備えた性質を示し、部分的に胴部６及び肩部７は比較的弾力性があり、口頸部は剛性のある如く構成する。これらの可撓性に乏しい性質の外壁材３を形成するためには、形成する合成樹脂の種類の選択、或いはその肉厚の選択、或いはこれらの複合等により現出することができる。
【００１４】
内壁材４も合成樹脂製で、上記外壁材肩部７内面に固着した肩部８の周縁より、上記外壁材胴部６内面と隙間９をあけて延設した筒状の胴部10下端部を外壁材３の下端部と一緒にシールして構成している。また、内壁材４は全体に可撓性に富む様に形成して、収納液が噴出されて内壁材４内の容積が減少するのに伴って収縮した状態を維持できる如く構成している。この場合の可撓性に富む性質の内壁材４を形成するためには、可撓性に乏しい性質の場合と同様に、形成する合成樹脂の種類の選択、或いはその肉厚の選択、或いはこれらの複合等により現出することができ、当然肉厚は相対的に薄く成る場合が多い。尚、内壁材４は、図１の実施例に示す如く、その肩部８を弾力性に富む如く構成しても良い。
【００１５】
上記外壁材肩部７へ内壁材肩部８を固着する具体的方法としては、融着，或いは接着等の適宜固着手段を採用できる。また、下端部のシール方法としては、公知のシール方法を採用できるが、例えば、図２に示す如く、シール前の下端を開口した筒状の胴部10を備えた内壁材４を、同様にシール前の下端を開口した筒状の胴部６を備えた外壁材３に、その内壁材肩部８を外壁材肩部７内面に固着した容器形成用筒体11を用意し、この筒体11の下端部を公知の折り込みシール方法により偏平状にシールすることにより形成することができる。尚、シール方法はこれに限らない。
【００１６】
上記外気導入口５は、内壁材４内の収納液の減少に伴って内壁材４と外壁材３との間に外気を導入して外壁材の変形を防止するとともに、収納液の円滑な噴出を行える如くするためのものである。外気導入口５の形成位置は内壁材４と外壁材３との間に外気を導入することができる位置であれば種々選択することができ、例えば、図１の実施例の如く、外壁材肩部７に設けても良く、或いは、図５乃至図７に示す如く、外壁材胴部６に設けても良い。また、その形態も、図１或いは図３に示す如く透孔形態のものであっても、或いは図４乃至図７に示す如きスリット形態のものであっても良い。
【００１７】
上記吐出具Ｂは、上記した如くチューブ容器Ａ内の収納液を汲み上げて噴出するためのもので、図示例の如きポンプの外、収納液を噴出する機構を備えた公知のものが使用できる。図示例では、チューブ容器Ａの口頸部２外周に装着筒12を嵌合して固定し、チューブ容器Ａ内に下端の吸い込み口13を開口し、更に、容器上方に上方付勢状態で上下動可能に突出した上端の噴出ヘッド14を押し下げることにより、内蔵ポンプ機構の作用で収納液をヘッドの噴出口15より噴出する如く構成した公知形態のものを使用することができる。
【００１８】
図１に示す実施例に付いて更に説明すると、図２に拡大図で示す如く、上記外気導入口５を上記外壁材肩部７の外縁部に設けている。また、内壁材肩部８を弾力性に富む如く構成し、外気導入口５の形成位置より内側の外壁材肩部７下面に内壁材肩部８の内側部を固着した固着部分ａとするとともに、上記外気導入口５を閉塞する部分の内壁材肩部８を外気導入弁17として構成している。従って、常時はこの外気導入弁17により外気導入口５は閉塞されており、液の噴出に伴って内壁材４と外壁材３との間が負圧化した際に外気導入弁17が開いて外気が導入される如く構成している。内壁材４の肩部８のみを弾力性に富ませるためには、肉厚の調整、即ち、肉厚を弾力性が出るまでの厚さとする方法が主として挙げられるが、他の方法でも良い。
【００１９】
また、図１の実施例では、外壁材３を透明又は半透明材質で形成するとともに、内壁材４外面に装飾層18を形成している。装飾層は印刷等の適宜塗布手段により施すことができ、図柄，模様，絵，文字，記号或いはこれらの組み合わせ等の形態を採用できる。尚、透明又は半透明材質の外壁材３にも内壁材の装飾層の邪魔にならない程度に図柄、模様、文字、記号或いはこれらの組み合わせを形成することができる。この様に形成することにより、収納液の減少に伴って収縮する内壁材４が変形するため、その外面の装飾層18に変化が生じ、使用者に面白さ或いは色彩図柄等の変化の美しさを観賞できる如く構成している。
【００２０】
また、吐出具Ｂの吸い込み口13を形成するシリンダ19の下端部に、吸い込み口13の吸い込みを可能な状態で上端取付部を嵌着固定したデップバー21を収納部下端まで垂下している。上記取付部は、シリンダ19の下端部に嵌合させた嵌合筒22の下端より周方向複数の連結脚23を垂設したもので、各連結脚23の下端部に、棒状のデップバー21上端を一体に連結している。このデップバー21存在により、収納液が減少した際の内壁材４の収縮が偏向しないよう、ひいては収納液の効率の良い噴出が行える如く構成している。
【００２１】
上記の如く構成した吐出具Ｂ付きのチューブ容器Ａは、噴出ヘッド14を上下動させることにより、内蔵ポンプ機構の作用によりシリンダ19内の液を噴出口15より噴出するとともに、収納液を吸い込み口13よりシリンダ19内に吸い上げる。この際収納液の減少に伴って内壁材４が収縮し、外気導入弁17が開いて外気が導入され、液の噴出後に外気導入弁17はその弾性復元力により閉じ、その内外を遮断する。
【００２２】
【発明の効果】
以上説明した如く本発明のチューブ容器は、既述構成としたことにより、装着した吐出具による液の噴出の際に収縮する内壁材と外壁材との隙間に外気が円滑且つ均一に導入されるため、また、内壁材の上端と下端とが固定されているため、内壁材の比較的均一な変形を引き起し、内壁材が局部的に大きく収縮変形する等の不都合を防止でき、円滑且つ効率の良い液の噴出を行えるものである。
【００２３】
また、上記外気導入口５を上記外壁材肩部７の外縁部に設けるとともに、上記内壁材肩部８を弾力性に富む如く構成し、上記外気導入口５の形成位置より内側の外壁材肩部７下面に上記内壁材肩部８の内側部を固着するとともに、上記外気導入口５を閉塞する部分の内壁材肩部８を外気導入弁17として構成してなるものにあっては、液噴出後に内壁材と外壁材との隙間と外部とを遮断できるため、内壁材及び外壁材をそのままの状態で維持できる利点を兼ね備えている。
【００２４】
また、上記外壁材３を透明又は半透明材質で形成するとともに、内壁材４外面に装飾層18を設けてなるものにあっては、収納液の減少に伴って収縮する内壁材外面の装飾層の形態の変化が観賞でき、使用上の楽しみを増加する等の利点がある。

[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0011]
The tube container A of the present invention is formed by closing the upper end opening of the mouth-and-neck portion 2 and mounting a discharge tool B for ejecting stored liquid.
[0012]
The tube container A includes an outer wall material 3 and an inner wall material 4, and an outside air inlet 5 is provided in the outer wall material 3.
[0013]
The outer wall material 3 is made of synthetic resin, and the neck portion 2 is erected from the upper end of the cylindrical body portion 6 with the lower end sealed through the shoulder portion 7, so that the entire structure is poor in flexibility. The term “poor flexibility” as used herein refers to a property that is relatively elastic and can return to its original state even when deformed, or a property that is rigid and difficult to deform. The portion 6 and the shoulder 7 are relatively elastic, and the mouth and neck are configured to be rigid. In order to form the outer wall material 3 having poor flexibility, the outer wall material 3 can be obtained by selecting the type of synthetic resin to be formed, selecting its thickness, or combining these.
[0014]
The inner wall material 4 is also made of a synthetic resin, and the lower end portion of the cylindrical body portion 10 is extended from the periphery of the shoulder portion 8 fixed to the inner surface of the shoulder portion 7 of the outer wall material with a gap 9 from the inner surface of the body portion 6 of the outer wall material. Is sealed together with the lower end of the outer wall material 3. Further, the inner wall material 4 is formed so as to be highly flexible as a whole, and is configured such that the contracted state can be maintained as the volume of the inner wall material 4 decreases as the stored liquid is ejected. In order to form the inner wall material 4 having a flexible property in this case, as in the case of the poorly flexible property, the type of synthetic resin to be formed, the thickness thereof, or the like Of course, the wall thickness is often relatively thin. The inner wall material 4 may be configured such that the shoulder portion 8 is rich in elasticity, as shown in the embodiment of FIG.
[0015]
As a specific method for fixing the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 to the outer wall material shoulder portion 7, an appropriate fixing means such as fusion or adhesion can be employed. Moreover, as a sealing method of a lower end part, a well-known sealing method can be adopted. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, an inner wall member 4 provided with a cylindrical body part 10 having an opened lower end before sealing is similarly used. A container forming cylinder 11 having an inner wall material shoulder 8 fixed to an inner surface of an outer wall material shoulder 7 is prepared on an outer wall material 3 having a cylindrical body 6 having an open lower end before sealing. It can be formed by sealing the lower end of 11 in a flat shape by a known folding sealing method. The sealing method is not limited to this.
[0016]
The outside air introduction port 5 introduces outside air between the inner wall material 4 and the outer wall material 3 as the stored liquid in the inner wall material 4 decreases, and prevents the outer wall material from being deformed. It is for making it possible to perform. The outside air inlet 5 can be formed in various positions as long as the outside air can be introduced between the inner wall member 4 and the outer wall member 3. For example, as shown in the embodiment of FIG. You may provide in the part 7, or you may provide in the outer wall material trunk | drum 6, as shown in FIG. 5 thru | or FIG. Also, the form thereof may be a through-hole form as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 3, or a slit form as shown in FIGS.
[0017]
The discharge tool B is for pumping the stored liquid in the tube container A as described above, and a known one having a mechanism for discharging the stored liquid can be used in addition to the pump as shown in the illustrated example. In the illustrated example, a mounting cylinder 12 is fitted and fixed to the outer periphery of the mouth and neck portion 2 of the tube container A, and a suction port 13 at the lower end is opened in the tube container A. By pushing down the ejecting head 14 at the upper end that protrudes movably, a known type configured to eject the stored liquid from the ejection port 15 of the head by the action of the built-in pump mechanism can be used.
[0018]
The embodiment shown in FIG. 1 will be further described. As shown in an enlarged view of FIG. 2, the outside air inlet 5 is provided at the outer edge of the outer wall shoulder 7. Further, the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 is configured to be highly elastic, and a fixed portion a in which the inner portion of the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 is fixed to the lower surface of the outer wall material shoulder portion 7 on the inner side from the position where the outside air introduction port 5 is formed. The portion of the inner wall material shoulder 8 that closes the outside air introduction port 5 is configured as an outside air introduction valve 17. Accordingly, the outside air introduction port 17 is normally closed by the outside air introduction valve 17, and the outside air introduction valve 17 is opened when the pressure between the inner wall material 4 and the outer wall material 3 becomes negative as the liquid is ejected. It is configured so that outside air is introduced. In order to make only the shoulder portion 8 of the inner wall material 4 rich in elasticity, there is mainly a method of adjusting the wall thickness, that is, a method in which the wall thickness is made thick enough for elasticity, but other methods may be used.
[0019]
Further, in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the outer wall material 3 is formed of a transparent or translucent material, and a decorative layer 18 is formed on the outer surface of the inner wall material 4. The decoration layer can be applied by an appropriate application means such as printing, and a pattern, pattern, picture, character, symbol, or a combination thereof can be adopted. In addition, a pattern, a pattern, a character, a symbol, or a combination thereof can be formed on the outer wall material 3 made of a transparent or translucent material to the extent that it does not interfere with the decorative layer of the inner wall material. By forming in this way, the inner wall material 4 that contracts with the decrease in the stored liquid is deformed, so that a change occurs in the decorative layer 18 on the outer surface, and the beauty of the change in the funness, color design, etc. to the user. It is structured so that you can appreciate.
[0020]
Further, a dip bar 21 having an upper end mounting portion fitted and fixed to the lower end portion of the cylinder 19 forming the suction port 13 of the discharge tool B in a state where the suction port 13 can be sucked is suspended to the lower end of the storage portion. The mounting portion is formed by suspending a plurality of connecting legs 23 in the circumferential direction from the lower end of the fitting cylinder 22 fitted to the lower end of the cylinder 19, and at the lower end of each connecting leg 23, the upper end of the rod-shaped dip bar 21 Are connected together. Due to the presence of the dip bar 21, the contraction of the inner wall material 4 when the stored liquid is reduced is not deflected, so that the stored liquid can be efficiently ejected.
[0021]
In the tube container A with the discharge tool B configured as described above, the liquid in the cylinder 19 is ejected from the ejection port 15 by the action of the built-in pump mechanism by moving the ejection head 14 up and down, and the stored liquid is sucked in. Suck up into cylinder 19 from 13. At this time, the inner wall material 4 contracts as the stored liquid decreases, and the outside air introduction valve 17 opens and outside air is introduced. After the liquid is ejected, the outside air introduction valve 17 closes by its elastic restoring force and shuts off the inside and outside.
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, since the tube container of the present invention has the above-described configuration, the outside air is smoothly and uniformly introduced into the gap between the inner wall material and the outer wall material that contracts when the liquid is ejected by the attached discharge tool. Therefore, since the upper end and the lower end of the inner wall material are fixed, it is possible to cause a relatively uniform deformation of the inner wall material, and to prevent inconvenience such as a large contraction deformation of the inner wall material locally, Efficient liquid can be ejected.
[0023]
The outside air introduction port 5 is provided at the outer edge portion of the outer wall material shoulder portion 7 and the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 is configured to be highly elastic so that the outer wall material shoulder on the inner side from the position where the outside air introduction port 5 is formed. In the case where the inner portion of the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 is fixed to the lower surface of the portion 7 and the inner wall material shoulder portion 8 that closes the outside air introduction port 5 is configured as the outside air introduction valve 17, Since the gap between the inner wall material and the outer wall material and the outside can be shut off after ejection, it has the advantage that the inner wall material and the outer wall material can be maintained as they are.
[0024]
Further, in the case where the outer wall material 3 is formed of a transparent or translucent material and the decorative layer 18 is provided on the outer surface of the inner wall material 4, the decorative layer on the outer surface of the inner wall material that shrinks as the stored liquid decreases. There are advantages such as the ability to appreciate the change of the form and increase the fun in use.
