Description

  The present invention relates to a package for housing a discharge container that discharges contents by pressing from the outside.

  Conventionally, for example, hair cosmetics such as hair dyes are stored in a discharge container that discharges contents by external pressure, such as a pouch or tube container, and are stored in a package (packaging container such as an outer box) together with a brush or the like. It is common to circulate in such a state.

  In order to discharge the contents from such a discharge container, in addition to directly pressing the discharge container with a finger, a discharge tool that assists the pressing operation can be used (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). If such a discharge tool is used, there is an advantage that the contents can be easily discharged better than when the discharge container is locally pressed with a finger.

  However, it is conceivable that the discharge tool as described above is provided in a package together with, for example, a discharge container. However, there is a problem that the cost as a product is significantly increased by separately preparing the discharge container. there were.

  The present invention has been made in view of these problems, and it is intended to provide a package with a discharge function capable of easily discharging the contents from a discharge container without significantly increasing the cost as a product. It is aimed.

  The package with a discharge function according to claim 1 of the present invention, which has been made to achieve the above object, comprises a container-like container main body capable of accommodating a discharge container for discharging contents by external pressure, and a container main body. And a lid having a shallow container shape on which the discharge container can be placed. The package with a discharge function is formed by inserting the lid into the concave side of the container body to close the open surface of the concave side and form a storage chamber for confining the discharge container. The discharge container placed on the container can be pressed on the convex side of the container body.

  According to such a package with a discharge function, the contents can be discharged from the discharge container by pressing the discharge container placed on the concave side of the lid with the convex side of the container body. That is, the package with a discharge function of the present invention functions not only as a package for storing a discharge container but also as a discharge tool. Therefore, it is possible to easily discharge the contents from the discharge container without significantly increasing the cost as a product.

Here, in order to improve the performance as a discharge tool, for example, it may be configured as in claim 2.
That is, the package with a discharge function according to claim 2 includes a strip-shaped connecting piece that connects the edge of the container body and the edge of the lid. And this package with a discharge function is configured such that the convex side of the lid can be inserted into the concave side of the container body, and the accommodation chamber is formed by inserting the convex side of the lid into the concave side of the container body, The container body is configured such that the convex side of the container body can be inserted into the concave side of the lid body by rotating the container body about the width direction of the connecting piece relative to the lid body, and the container body is placed on the concave side of the lid body. The discharge container can be pressed on the convex side of the container body.

  According to such a package with a discharge function, since the degree of freedom of the positional relationship between the container body and the lid is limited by the connecting piece, the discharge container placed on the concave side of the lid is placed on the container body. It can be stably pressed on the convex side.

  And in the structure provided with the connecting piece in this way, for example, as described in claim 3, the connecting piece is formed to have a length obtained by subtracting the depth of the lid from the length in the depth direction of the container body. Preferably it is. According to such a package with a discharge function, since the length of the connecting piece matches the state in which the convex side of the container body is completely inserted into the concave side of the lid, the discharge container is stably pressed to the end. be able to.

By the way, when the discharge container placed on the concave side of the lid is pressed on the convex side of the container body, the position of the discharge container is preferably fixed.
Therefore, for example, in the package with a discharge function according to claim 4, a through-hole is formed in the cover body so that the discharge container placed on the concave side of the cover body can be inserted so that the discharge port is exposed to the outside. Has been. According to such a package with a discharge function, the position of the discharge container placed on the concave side of the lid can be simply fixed.

  On the other hand, for example, in the package with a discharge function according to claim 5, each concave side of the container main body and the lid has a shape that widens toward the open side, so that the convex side of the lid is the concave side of the container main body. Thus, the convex side of the container body can be smoothly inserted into the concave side of the lid body.

  Next, for example, the usage method of the package with a discharge function according to claim 6 is the usage method of the package with a discharge function according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the accommodation chamber is formed. In this state, the lid is removed from the concave side of the container main body, the discharge container is taken out, the discharge container is placed on the concave side of the lid, and the discharge container placed on the concave side of the lid is placed in the container The content is discharged by pressing on the convex side of the main body. According to such a method of using a package with a discharge function, the contents can be easily discharged well from the discharge container without separately preparing a discharge tool.

FIG.

  The package with a discharge function 100 of the present embodiment is for housing two pouches 10 and 20 in which the first agent and the second agent of hair color are separately accommodated, and these two pouches 10 and 20 In the state accommodated in the package 100 with the discharge function (the state shown in FIG. 1), it is distributed as a product.

  The package 100 with a discharge function includes a container body 30 that functions as a storage container that stores the two pouches 10 and 20, a lid body 40 that functions as a lid that closes the open surface of the container body 30, and these container bodies. 30 and a lid 40, and a suspension piece 60 extending upward from the upper part of the lid 40 (the side facing the side where the coupling piece 50 is provided). Note that the package 100 with a discharge function of the present embodiment is a package (so-called clear case) formed by three-dimensionally bending a single transparent plastic sheet that has been punched into a developed shape.

  Each of the pouches 10 and 20 is a discharge container that discharges the contents (in this embodiment, the first and second agents of hair color) by pressing from the outside. Specifically, when the contents are discharged, projecting pieces 11 and 21 are formed in which the tip portion is cut off to form the discharge port, and the discharge port is pressed from the outside in a state where the discharge port is formed. The contents are discharged from the discharge port.

  The container main body 30 is a container-like one in which one surface of a substantially rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped hexahedron is opened. Specifically, the open surface and its opposing surface are rectangular, and the open surface is formed to be slightly larger. For this reason, the remaining four surfaces are trapezoids that are slightly spread on the open surface side. And the container main body 30 can accommodate the two pouches 10 and 20 in the space of the concave side (opening surface side) (refer FIG. 1). In addition, as will be described later, the convex side of the container body 30 (the side in front and back relation with the concave side) functions as a pressing surface for pressing the two pouches 10 and 20 simultaneously (FIGS. 3B and 3B). c)).

  Similar to the container body 30, the lid body 40 is a container-like one in which one surface of a substantially rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped hexahedron is opened, and is formed at a shallower depth than the container body 30. Specifically, like the container body 30, the open surface and the opposing surface are rectangular, the open surface is formed to be slightly larger, and the remaining four surfaces are trapezoids that are slightly widened on the open surface side. It has become.

  Here, the open surface of the lid 40 is designed to have substantially the same shape and dimensions as the open surface of the container body 30. Moreover, the inclination degree from the open surface of the cover body 40 to the opposing surface is designed to be substantially the same as the inclination degree from the open surface of the container body 30 to the opposing surface. As described above, the lid 40 is designed to be shallower (the length in the depth direction is shorter) than the container body 30. For this reason, by inserting the convex side of the lid 40 into the concave side of the container body 30, the container body 30 is left with a space for accommodating the two pouches 10, 20 between the container body 30 and the lid 40. Can be closed (see FIG. 1). As will be described later, the concave side of the lid 40 is used as a tray on which the two pouches 10 and 20 are placed (see FIGS. 3B and 3C).

  The connecting piece 50 is in a band shape (rectangular shape) that connects the lower end edges (one side in the short direction) of the container body 30 and the lid body 40, and the lid body 40 is inserted into the container body 30. In the state (the state shown in FIG. 1), it is bent in half. Further, the connecting piece 50 has a lid body from the length in the depth direction on the side of the container body 30 on which the connecting piece 50 is provided (the outer dimension in the depth direction, in other words, the depth + the thickness of the sheet). 40 is formed by subtracting the depth on the side where the connecting piece 50 is provided (see FIG. 3A). That is, the length matches the distance between the lower edge portions in a state where the convex side of the container body 30 is completely inserted into the concave side of the lid body 40. Therefore, by rotating the container body 30 with respect to the lid body 40 about the width direction of the connecting piece 50, the convex side of the container body 30 can be completely inserted into the concave side of the lid body 40, The entire outer surface on the convex side of the container body 30 can be brought into contact with the concave inner surface of the lid 40.

  The hanging piece 60 is a rectangular shape that extends upward from the upper end edge of the lid 40 (one side in the short direction on the side facing the connecting piece 50 side), and can be displayed by hanging the product at the time of sale. A through-hole 61 is formed. Moreover, the hanging piece 60 is formed longer than the length in the depth direction on the side where the hanging piece 60 is provided in the lid 40, and when the concave side of the lid 40 is used as a tray, By folding the suspension piece 60 to the convex side of the lid body 40, the suspension piece 60 can be placed with the height elevated (see FIGS. 3B and 3C).

  In addition, the protruding pieces 11 and 21 are inserted into the surface of the lid body 40 on the side where the hanging pieces 60 are connected in a state where the two pouches 10 and 20 are placed on the concave side of the lid body 40. Thus, a through hole 41 for exposing to the outside is formed. The through hole 41 is formed in a horizontally long slit shape in accordance with the cross-sectional shape of the pouches 10 and 20, and the width of the slit central portion is formed large so as not to disturb the discharge of the contents (FIG. 2 ( a)). The through hole 41 is provided at a position communicating with the through hole 61 of the hanging piece 60 in a state where the hanging piece 60 is bent to the convex side of the lid body 40. At both ends, cuts are provided to facilitate the passage of the pouches 10 and 20. In addition, since the through-hole 41 is not exposed outside in the state at the time of product display (state shown in FIG. 1), the appearance is not easily damaged.

Next, the usage method of the package 100 with a discharge function of this embodiment is demonstrated.
First, from the state where the open surface of the container body 30 is closed by the lid 40 as shown in FIG. 1, the lid 40 is removed as shown in FIG. 2 (a) → FIG. Take out the pouches 10 and 20.

  Next, the hanging piece 60 is bent to the convex side of the lid body 40 to allow the through hole 41 of the lid body 40 and the through hole 61 of the hanging piece 60 to communicate with each other. The protruding pieces 11 and 21 are exposed to the outside through the through holes 41 and 61 while being stacked on the concave side of the upper and lower sides. The suspended piece 60 is maintained in a bent state when the protruding pieces 11 and 21 of the pouches 10 and 20 are caught.

  In this state, as shown in FIG. 3 (b) → FIG. 3 (c), the container body 30 is rotated with respect to the lid body 40 around the width direction of the connecting piece 50, and the lid body 40 is recessed. The two pouches 10 and 20 placed on the side are pressed on the convex side of the container body 30. As a result, the first agent and the second agent, which are the contents, are simultaneously discharged from the two pouches 10 and 20 in substantially the same amount. Here, since the convex side of the container main body 30 presses the pouches 10 and 20 from the skirt side, the contents hardly remain. Further, since the hanging piece 60 functions as a leg, the position of the discharge port of the pouches 10 and 20 is increased, so that the discharged first agent and second agent can be easily placed on an applicator such as a brush. .

  As described above, according to the package 100 with the discharge function of the present embodiment, by pressing the two pouches 10 and 20 placed on the concave side of the lid body 40 on the convex side of the container body 30. The contents can be discharged from the two pouches 10 and 20 at substantially the same amount at the same time. In particular, a connecting piece 50 having a length matching the state in which the convex side of the container body 30 is completely inserted into the concave side of the lid 40 is provided, and the side of the lid 40 where the through hole 41 is formed. Since the two pouches 10 and 20 are provided on the opposite side to the discharge side, the two pouches 10 and 20 are stably pressed from the bottom side to the discharge port side to the end (in a state in which variations are unlikely to occur). Can do.

  Further, in the package 100 with the discharge function, the positions of the two pouches 10 and 20 placed on the concave side of the lid body 40 are simply fixed by the through holes 41 and 61 of the lid body 40 and the hanging piece 60. be able to. Furthermore, since the position of the discharge port of the pouches 10 and 20 is increased by causing the suspension piece 60 to function as a leg, the discharged first agent and second agent can be easily placed on an applicator such as a brush. can do.

  In addition, in the package 100 with a discharge function, since the concave sides of the container body 30 and the lid body 40 are widened toward the open side, the container body 30 and the lid body 40 can be smoothly inserted into each other. It can be.
