Description

  The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a medicine container that contains a volatile medicine.

  Conventionally, as this kind of medicine container, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example, a medicine container having a tray for containing a volatile medicine and a film-like lid covering an open portion of the tray It has been known. The lid of this Patent Document 1 has a permeable thin film configured to pass a volatilized drug and not to pass a non-volatilized drug, and a non-cover configured to cover the permeable thin film and not pass the drug. A transmissive thin film.

  The non-transmissive thin film is detachably bonded to the transmissive thin film. The permeable thin film is fixed to the container. During transport of the medicine container, volatilization of the medicine in the tray is suppressed by the non-permeable thin film. On the other hand, at the start of use of the medicine container, the user peels the non-permeable thin film from the permeable thin film. Thereby, the volatilized chemical | medical agent goes outside through a permeable thin film, and is spread | diffused to the circumference | surroundings, and the various effects by a chemical | medical agent are acquired.

JP-T-2001-523119

  In the medicine container of Patent Document 1, the non-permeable thin film must be peeled off at the start of use. However, since the non-transparent thin film is bonded to the entire transmissive thin film in the lid structure of Patent Document 1, when the user grasps a part of the lid to remove the non-transmissive thin film, The permeable thin film is held together, and a tensile force is applied to both thin films. At this time, since the transmissive thin film is fixed to the tray, when the two thin films are pulled together, the transmissive thin film is broken starting from the portion fixed to the tray. A force is required to break the permeable thin film. Therefore, the user may feel that it is difficult to peel off the non-permeable thin film, and it cannot be said that it is easy for the user to use.

  In addition, the user pulls the transmissive thin film when peeling the non-transmissive thin film as described above. At this time, a part of the transmissive thin film is peeled off from the tray by the user's force. It is possible to end up. In this case, a problem that the non-volatilized medicine inside the tray leaks occurs, and the function of gradually diffusing the medicine cannot be achieved.

  This invention is made | formed in view of this point, The place made into the objective is providing the manufacturing method of the chemical | medical agent container which is easy to use for a user, and is hard to generate | occur | produce a malfunction.

  In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a grip portion is provided on the non-permeable member of the lid, and the grip portion is extended outward from the container rather than the volatile drug permeable member of the lid.

1st invention is equipped with the container which accommodates the chemical | medical agent which has volatility, and the lid | cover which covers the open part of the said container, The said lid | cover passes a volatilized chemical | medical agent and does not let the chemical | medical agent which has not volatilized pass. And a non-permeable member configured to cover the volatile drug permeable member from the outside of the container and not to allow the drug to pass therethrough, and the non-permeable member includes the volatile drug permeable member. It is integrated so as to be peelable from the member, and has a grip portion for gripping when peeling from the volatile drug permeable member, and the grip portion extends to the outside of the container from the volatile drug permeable member. In the method of manufacturing a medicine container in which the volatile drug permeable member is fixed to the container more strongly than the force when the non-permeable member is peeled from the volatile drug permeable member , Peripheral part The flange is provided, toward the outside of the container to the outer edge of the flange may be provided a plate-shaped extending portion extending above the volatile agent transmitting member in the non-transmissive member is adhered film-like material On the volatile drug permeable member side, a cutting tool is used to cut and remove the volatile drug permeable member from the portion that becomes the grip portion of the non-permeable member, and then the volatile drug permeable to the film material. The outer edge portion of the member is positioned on the proximal end side in the extending direction of the extending portion with respect to the outer edge portion of the extending portion of the container, and the drug container is thermally welded to the flange over the entire circumference. It is characterized by obtaining.

  According to this configuration, when the user tries to peel off the non-permeable member from the volatile drug-permeable member, the user grasps the grip portion of the non-permeable member and pulls it in the peeling direction. Since this grip part is extended toward the outside of the container rather than the volatile drug transmitting member, the user does not hold the volatile drug transmitting member together. Accordingly, since the user pulls only the non-permeable member, it is not necessary to break the volatile chemical transmission member, and the force required to peel the non-permeable member from the volatile chemical transmission member is small. Part of the transmission member is not peeled off from the container.

  According to the first aspect of the invention, the non-permeable member of the lid is detachably integrated with the volatile drug permeable member, the grip portion is provided on the non-permeable member, and the grip portion is placed outside the container rather than the volatile drug permeable member. Since it extended toward the direction, the user can peel a non-permeable member from a volatile chemical | medical agent permeable member, without grasping a volatile chemical | medical agent permeable member. Thereby, since the force at the time of peeling a non-permeable member may be small, it can be made easy to use, and part of the volatile drug permeable member is not peeled off from the container, so that the occurrence of problems can be suppressed.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the following description of the preferred embodiment is merely illustrative in nature, and is not intended to limit the present invention, its application, or its use.

  FIG. 1 shows a drug diffuser 50 including a display tool 1 as a drug container according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the description of this embodiment, the structure of the drug diffuser 50 will be described before the structure of the display device 1 is described.

  The drug diffuser 50 includes a drug-impregnated body 51 impregnated with a volatile drug, a case 52 that accommodates the drug-impregnated body 51, and a hook 53 for suspending the case 52. The drug impregnated body 51 is made of a member having liquid absorbency, and is processed into a highly breathable mesh. The drug impregnated in the drug impregnated body 51 is not particularly limited as long as it is a volatile drug. Examples thereof include insecticides, insect repellents, insect repellents, fragrances, and deodorants.

  The case 52 has a thick plate shape made of a resin material, has a substantially rectangular shape that is long in the vertical direction when viewed from the front, and is curved in an approximately S shape as a whole when viewed from above. The case 52 is configured by combining a first divided body 55 and a second divided body 56 that are divided into two in the thickness direction. The drug impregnated body 51 is accommodated between the first divided body 55 and the second divided body 56, and the drug impregnated body 51 is sandwiched between the first divided body 55 and the second divided body 56 in the thickness direction.

  The first divided body 55 and the second divided body 56 are formed with a large number of through holes 55a (only those of the first divided body 55 are shown). Air enters and exits the case 52 through the through-hole 55a, so that the drug impregnated in the drug-impregnated body 51 diffuses around.

  An opening 57 that is long in the vertical direction is formed at the center of the case 52 so as to penetrate in the thickness direction of the case 52. The display 1 is attached to the opening 57.

  Next, the structure of the display tool 1 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 6, the display device 1 includes a container 10 that contains a volatile drug and a lid 20 that covers an open portion of the container 10.

  The container 10 has a shape extending long in a predetermined direction corresponding to the shape of the opening 57 of the drug diffuser 50, and is made of a colorless and transparent resin plate such as polyethylene-terephthalate (PET). As shown in FIG. 1, the container 10 is attached to the drug diffuser 50 in a posture in which the longitudinal direction thereof coincides with the vertical direction of the drug diffuser 50.

  In the description of the present embodiment, the upper side of the display device 1 attached to the medicine diffuser 50 is referred to as “upper”, and the lower side is referred to as “lower”.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the container 10 has a bulging portion 11 that bulges to one side in the thickness direction of the plate material. As shown in FIGS. 2, 5, and 6, the bulging portion 11 extends in the vertical direction, and a medicine is accommodated in the bulging portion 11. The bulging part 11 has an opening on the opposite side of the bulging direction substantially over the whole, and this opening is an open part of the container 10.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a flange 12 is formed on the periphery of the bulging portion 11 of the container 10 so as to surround the bulging portion 11. The flange 12 has a substantially rectangular shape.

  A lower notch 13 is formed in the lower portion of the flange 12. The lower notch 13 is located near the center in the width direction of the lower edge of the flange 12. Further, an extension portion 14 extending upward is formed on the upper portion of the flange 12. The extending part 14 is a part fixed to the drug diffuser 50. The width of the extending portion 14 is set to be narrower than the width of the flange 12. Moreover, the upper edge part of the extension part 14 becomes a sharp shape so that it may be located so that it may approach the width direction center part. Furthermore, notches 14 a and 14 a are formed on both sides in the width direction at the lower portion of the extending portion 14.

  The drug is not particularly limited as long as it is a volatile drug, and examples thereof include insecticides, insect repellents, insect repellents, fragrances, and deodorants. The drug is a liquid, and is colored, for example, blue, yellow, or green.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the lid 20 is made of a thin multilayer film material. The lid 20 covers the volatile drug permeable film (volatile drug permeable member) 21 configured to pass the volatile drug and not pass the non-volatile drug, and the volatile drug permeable film 21 from the outside of the container 10. In addition, a non-permeable film (non-permeable member) 22 configured not to allow the drug to pass therethrough is provided.

  The volatile drug permeable film 21 can be formed of a well-known film having a property of allowing gas to pass without passing liquid. Examples of this type of film include those disclosed in JP-T-2001-523119, but other films can also be used.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the volatile drug permeable film 21 has a substantially rectangular shape corresponding to the shape of the flange 12 of the container 10. That is, the width of the volatile drug permeable film 21 is set to be substantially the same as the width of the container 10, and the length of the volatile drug permeable film 21 is the lower edge of the extended portion 14 in the flange 12 from the lower edge of the container 10. The length is set to reach the part.

  The volatile drug permeable film 21 is made of a thermoplastic resin. The peripheral edge of the volatile drug permeable film 21 is fixed to the flange 12 by thermal welding over the entire circumference. The heat welding part of the volatile chemical | medical agent permeable film 21 is shown by the oblique line in FIG. The material constituting the volatile drug permeable film 21 is preferably the same as the material constituting the container 10 in order to ensure sufficient welding strength with the container 10.

  Examples of the volatile drug permeable film 21 include a polyethylene film, a polypropylene film, a polyurethane film, a nylon film, a polyethylene terephthalate film, or a composite laminate film thereof.

  The non-permeable film 22 can be formed of a known film having a property that neither liquid nor gas passes. In this embodiment, the non-transmissive film 22 is composed of an aluminum film.

  The entire surface of the non-permeable film 22 is detachably bonded to the volatile drug permeable film 21 with an adhesive, and the non-permeable film 22 and the volatile drug permeable film 21 are integrated. Since the adhesive for releasably adhering is a well-known adhesive, detailed description thereof is omitted. The adhesive force between the non-permeable film 22 and the volatile drug permeable film 21 is set to be weaker than the adhesion force of the volatile drug permeable film 21 to the container 10. In other words, the volatile drug permeable film 21 is fixed to the container 10 more strongly than the force for peeling the non-permeable film 22 from the volatile drug permeable film 21.

  Specifically, when a general person (user) who uses the drug diffuser 50 grasps the non-permeable film 22 with, for example, the index finger and the thumb and pulls it in the peeling direction, a large force is required to feel a sense of incongruity. The adhesive strength is such that it can be smoothly peeled off from the volatile drug permeable film 21.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the width of the non-permeable film 22 is set to be substantially the same as the width of the volatile drug permeable film 21. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the length of the non-permeable film 22 is set longer than the length of the volatile drug permeable film 21. The lower edge portion of the non-permeable film 22 substantially coincides with the lower edge portion of the volatile drug permeable film 21, but the upper side of the non-permeable film 22 extends to above the upper edge portion of the volatile drug permeable film 21. Is formed.

  A portion of the non-permeable film 22 above the volatile drug permeable film 21 serves as a grip portion 22a for the user to grip when the non-permeable film 22 is peeled off. That is, the grip portion 22 a extends outward from the volatile drug permeable film 21 with the lid 20 fixed to the container 10. For this reason, the volatile chemical | medical agent permeable film 21 is not laminated | stacked on the holding part 22a, and becomes a part which is not fixed to the container 10. FIG.

  The grip portion 22a has a substantially rectangular shape, and the width thereof is substantially the same as the main body portion of the non-permeable film 22 (the portion on which the volatile drug permeable film 21 is laminated). The vertical dimension of the grip part 22a is set longer than the vertical dimension of the extension part 14 of the container 10, and the upper part of the grip part 22a is higher than the upper part of the extension part 14, as shown in FIGS. Is also located above.

  Examples of the material constituting the non-transmissive film 22 include, in addition to the aluminum film, polyester (PET, PBT, etc.), polyamide, polyacetal, polyacrylonitrile, and the like.

  The rate of decrease of the drug in the container 10 can be arbitrarily adjusted according to the components of the drug and the structure of the volatile drug permeable film 21. For example, if the life of the drug-impregnated body 51 of the drug diffuser 50 is 100 days, the rate of decrease of the drug is set so that the drug in the container 10 of the display device 1 will disappear in 100 days. In addition, the chemical | medical agent from which the effect in the chemical | medical agent in the container 10 of the indicator 1 and the chemical | medical agent impregnation body 51 of the chemical | medical agent diffuser 50 differs is preferable.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the display device 1 configured as described above is accommodated in the opening 57 of the drug diffuser 50, and the extending portion 14 of the container 10 is the first divided body 55 of the case 52. And the lower part of the container 10 is similarly hold | maintained at the case 52 between the 2nd division bodies 56, and is hold | maintained.

  Since the indicator 1 attached to the case 52 in this way is visible from the outside of the case 52, the degree of decrease of the medicine in the container 10 can be easily grasped, and the medicine in the container 10 can be easily grasped. Based on the degree of decrease, the remaining amount of the drug impregnated body 51 of the drug diffuser 50 (the life of the drug impregnated body 51) can be grasped. At this time, since the medicine in the container 10 of the display tool 1 is colored and the container 10 is transparent, the user can easily grasp the remaining amount of medicine.

  Next, the manufacturing procedure of the display tool 1 will be described. The container 10 is obtained by hot press molding a resin plate. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, an intermediate molded product 100 in a state where a large number of containers 10 are connected is manufactured.

  On the other hand, the lid 20 is prepared by preparing a long material obtained by adhering the non-permeable film 22 to the volatile drug permeable film 21 and cutting the material into a predetermined size to obtain a film-like material 300 shown in FIG. Get. The cut size of the film-like material 300 is a size corresponding to the shape of the intermediate molded product 100. That is, a film-like material 300 having a size that can secure the same number of lids 20 (shown by phantom lines in FIG. 9A) as the number of containers 10 included in the intermediate molded product 100 is formed.

  Before the film-like material 300 is fixed to the intermediate molded product 100, a portion to be the grip portion 22a is formed. That is, as shown in FIG. 9B, the cut B is made on the side of the volatile drug permeable film 21 of the film-like material 300 using the cutting tool A of the cutting device. The depth of the cut B is set so as not to reach the non-transmissive film 22. The cutting device has a known structure, and the adjustment of the depth of the cut B can be arbitrarily set by adjusting the cutting device.

  After the cut B is made, a part of the volatile drug permeable film 21 is peeled off from the non-permeable film 22 as shown in FIG. At this time, since the adhesive force of the volatile drug permeable film 21 is set weak as described above, it can be easily peeled off. A portion of the film-like material 300 from which the volatile drug permeable film 21 has been peeled becomes the grip portion 22a.

  As shown in FIG. 13, after preparing the intermediate molded product 100 that becomes the container 10 and the film-like material 300 that becomes the lid 20, the volatile chemical permeation through the film-like material 300 is made on the open side of the container 10 in the intermediate molded product 100. The film 21 side is overlapped. In addition, a medicine is injected into the container 10. And the film-form material 300 is heated with a well-known heater (not shown), and the volatile chemical | medical agent permeable film 21 is fuse | melted.

  When cooled, the volatile drug permeable film 21 is fixed to the flange 12 of the container 10.

  After that, the indicator 1 is obtained by cutting the intermediate molded product 100 and the film-like material 300.

  In the display device 1 obtained in this way, the peripheral portion of the container 10 is sealed so that there is no leakage of the medicine, and the open side of the container 10 is covered with the non-permeable film 22, so that the medicine does not volatilize. .

  Next, the case where the said display tool 1 is used is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 1, the display tool 1 is attached in advance to the drug diffuser 50 at the time of shipment from the factory. The user peels off the non-permeable film 22 from the volatile drug-permeable film 21. That is, as shown in FIG. 14A, first, the grip portion 22a of the non-transmissive film 22 is gripped with, for example, an index finger and a thumb. At this time, since the volatile drug permeable film 21 is not laminated on the non-permeable film 22, the grip portion 22a is soft and easily bent. Therefore, the grip portion 22a can be easily bent in a direction away from the extending portion 14 of the container 10, and the user can easily grip the grip portion 22a.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 14B, the user pulls down (in the peeling direction) while holding the grip portion 22a. At this time, since the user does not hold the volatile drug permeable film 21, only the non-permeable film 22 is pulled. Therefore, it is not necessary to partially break the volatile drug permeable film 21 as in the prior art, and the force required to peel the non-permeable film 22 from the volatile drug permeable film 21 is small. The part is not peeled off from the container 10.

  As described above, according to this embodiment, the user can peel off the non-permeable film 22 without grasping the volatile drug-permeable film 21. Thereby, it is easy to use because the force required to peel off the non-permeable film 22 is small, and a part of the volatile drug-permeable film 21 is not peeled off from the container 10 and the occurrence of problems can be suppressed. .

  In particular, since the non-permeable film 22 of the lid 20 can be peeled off while the container 10 of the display device 1 is attached to the case 52 of the drug diffuser 50, the handling can be simplified. And since the force at the time of peeling the non-permeable film 22 of the lid | cover 20 may be small, it can prevent that the display tool 1 remove | deviates from the case 52 of the chemical | medical agent diffuser 50 at the time of peeling.

  In addition, in the said embodiment, when forming the holding part 22a, although a part of volatile chemical | medical agent permeable film 21 is peeled from the non-permeable film 22, it is not restricted to this, A part of non-permeable film 22 Alternatively, a material on which the volatile drug permeable film 21 is not laminated may be prepared in advance, and the lid 20 having the grip portion 22a may be formed from this material.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated the case where this invention was the display tool 1 of the chemical | medical agent diffuser 50, it is not restricted to this, The chemical | medical agent container which concerns on this invention is independent, for example, insect repellent, deodorant It can be used as an instrument having functions such as fragrance.

  In addition, the shape and size of the container 10 can be arbitrarily set. For example, the present invention can be used as a stationary or portable insect repellent, deodorant, fragrance or the like.

  As described above, the medicine container according to the present invention can contain and use an insecticide, for example.
