  Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below, but includes those appropriately modified by those skilled in the art from the following embodiments.

  The present invention relates to a carton containing sanitary paper in which information elements 100, 101, and 102 are printed and displayed on a film 31 provided at the outlet 30 for sanitary paper. The shape of a carton containing sanitary paper is usually a rectangular parallelepiped. However, the shape of the sanitary paper-containing carton according to the present invention may be triangular, quadrangular, octagonal, or cylindrical. The rectangular parallelepiped carton shown in FIG. 1 has a top surface portion 1 and a bottom surface portion 2 that face each other when assembled, and a pair of short side surface portions 3 and a pair that are vertically connected to the end portions of the top surface portion 1 and the bottom surface portion 2. The long side surface portion 4. In this specification, for convenience, a side surface with a short end face is referred to as a short side face portion, and a side face with a long end face length is referred to as a long side face portion. However, the short side surface portion 3 and the long side surface portion 4 may have the same shape. Sanitary paper is stored in the internal space defined by these surfaces.

  Examples of the sanitary paper stored in the carton with sanitary paper of the present invention include paper such as tissue paper, moisturizing tissue, dust paper, paper towel (kitchen towel, kitchen sheet, cooking sheet), or toilet paper.

  The sanitary paper-containing carton of the present invention is provided with a sanitary paper outlet 30 on at least one surface. FIGS. 1 to 3 show an example of a rectangular parallelepiped carton in which a top 30 is provided with an outlet 30. The take-out port 30 is covered with a cut-out portion 10 separated by a cut-out line before using the carton. Then, when starting to use the carton, the take-out port 30 is formed by cutting off the cutout portion 10 covering the take-out port 30 along the cut line. When the outlet 30 is formed, the sanitary paper can be pulled out from the inside of the carton.

  A film 31 is provided at the outlet 30. The sanitary paper stored in the carton is drawn out through a slit 32 provided at the center of the film 31. The film 31 may be affixed along the outer periphery of the outlet 30, and may also be affixed to the periphery of the outlet 30. A normal method can be used as a method for attaching the film 31. For example, the film 31 is attached by glue. Examples of the material constituting the film 31 provided at the outlet 30 include plastic materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polyester. The film 31 is preferably transparent or translucent, but may be colored and opaque. The film 31 prevents external dust from entering from the outlet 30 and keeps the sanitary paper in the carton hygienic.

  The film 31 is provided in the sanitary paper outlet 30 in the sanitary paper-containing carton. The information element display film is a film on which information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed on the film 31. When the user pulls out the sanitary paper, the place where the line of sight is most concentrated is the film 31 around the slit at the tip of the hand where the hand is extended to take out the sanitary paper. Therefore, by printing and displaying the information elements 100, 101, and 102 on the film 31, it is possible to effectively alert the user and transmit information. Further, the film 31 is present at the outlet 30 from the start of use to the end of use without being thrown away at the start of use of the sanitary paper unlike the cut-out portion 10. Therefore, by displaying the information elements 100, 101, 102 on the film 31, the information elements 100, 101, 102 can be displayed over a long period from the start of use of the sanitary paper to the end of use.

  Examples of the information elements 100, 101, and 102 printed and displayed on the film 31 include product information, company information, advertisement information, caution notation, recycle display, and catchphrase. Product information includes, for example, product quality, raw materials, and usage. The company information includes, for example, a company name, a company philosophy, a company telephone number, a URL, and a two-dimensional barcode. The advertisement information includes, for example, advertisements for related products, company advertisements, and announcements of special events. Examples of cautions include an explanation of how to use the carton, a dismantling method after using the carton, and alerts during and after using the carton. Recycling labels include, for example, a method for separating cartons. Examples of the catch phrase include a sport event support phrase and a message for children. Various information elements 100, 101, and 102 such as information necessary for the user or a catch phrase that matches the season or event can be printed on the film 31.

  The information elements 100, 101, 102 may be printed on either the front surface or the back surface of the film 31. In the rectangular parallelepiped carton film 31 shown in FIG. 2, the surface containing the sanitary paper is the back surface of the film 31, and the surface facing the outside is the surface of the film 31. However, when the information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed on the back surface of the film 31, the film 31 can be transparent or translucent so that the user can visually recognize the information elements 100, 101, 102 from the top surface of the carton. desirable. When the information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed on the back surface of the film 31, it is possible to avoid ink fading and bleeding due to external contact stimulation or water splashing. On the other hand, when the information elements 100, 101, and 102 are printed on the surface of the film 31, the outline and color of the characters can be made vivid and the design can be improved. The information elements 100, 101, and 102 can be printed on the film 31 using a normal method.

  The film 31 is divided into two regions by a slit 32 at the center of the film 31. As shown in FIG. 2, the information elements 100 and 101 can be printed on each of the divided areas of the film 31. Also, as shown in FIG. 3, one information element 102 can be integrally printed in the divided film 31 area.

  As the ink for printing the information elements 100, 101, and 102 on the film 31, those used for ordinary plastic materials are used. The ink is more preferably water-resistant. As the ink, one or more types of ink selected from multicolor inks such as black, red, blue, and green can be used. The ink may be a mixture of light charges. Examples of light charges include phosphorescent paints, fluorescent paints, and light reflecting paints. When the information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed with ink mixed with light charges, the display of the information elements 100, 101, 102 is easily noticeable and the design is enhanced. Furthermore, when information elements are printed with ink mixed with light charges, the information elements 100, 101, and 102 can be displayed in a dark place. In this case, the display of the information elements 100, 101, and 102 can be an index indicating the location of the carton in addition to information transmission.

  When the information elements 100, 101, and 102 are printed on the film 31, the ink can be printed in white. Since sanitary paper is usually white, if the ink is white, the printed display will not be noticeable during use. However, in this case, after using the white sanitary paper, the information elements 100, 101, and 102 are first seen by the user. Therefore, when the information elements are printed and displayed in white, the information elements 100, 101, and 102 that are desired to be transmitted to the user after using the sanitary paper such as the disassembly method and the recycling display can be effectively displayed. Also, sanitary paper-filled cartons are usually made using inexpensive raw materials such as wood pulp and waste paper, so the color of the carton paper is blackish. For this reason, a process of bleaching the surface of the carton may be performed during the production of the carton. However, when the information elements 100, 101, and 102 are printed and displayed in white, it is not necessary to bleach the inner surface of the carton, and the manufacturing process can be simplified.

  The sanitary paper-filled carton of the present invention is usually made from a paper material using raw materials such as wood pulp and waste paper, but may be made from a transparent material such as plastic. In this case, the information elements 100, 101, and 102 can be printed and displayed on a portion where the film 31 provided in the peripheral portion of the outlet 30 and the transparent material overlap each other.

  In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed with scented ink. By printing the information elements 100, 101, and 102 with scented ink, an unpleasant odor peculiar to the sanitary paper when the sanitary paper is pulled out is suppressed. Moreover, when drawing out sanitary paper, the scent is emitted, and the therapeutic effect and stress relieving effect can be expected.

  The film 31 provided in the take-out port 30 is covered with a cut-out portion before the start of use at the time of sale. Therefore, even when the information elements 100, 101, 102 are printed on the film 31 with the scented ink, the scented component is held on the film 31 until it is used. In addition, a cosmetic company or a household goods company that wants to spread a specific scent to the world prints and displays advertising information with scented ink, thereby promoting and promoting the scent.

  The fragrance used in the present invention is preferably a fragrance having a persistent fragrance and high palatability.
