Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention relates to a surface treatment tool for eyeglasses that antifogs and cleans the surface of eyeglass lenses.

(Prior art) Conventional eyeglass surface treatment tools fill a cylindrical container with a treatment agent, pour out the treatment agent from a pump-type or spray-type spout provided at one end of the container, and apply the treatment agent to eyeglass lenses. The product was sprayed on and then wiped off with a soft cloth or tissue paper while being diffused.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the case of the surface treatment tool for eyeglasses having the above structure, since the container is filled with a surface treatment agent, one end of the container and the spout must be sealed watertight. For example, the surface treatment agent may ooze out when the product is carried. To do this, the container and spout must be made cylindrical and screwed together, which not only adds bulk when carried in a pocket of clothing, but also causes instability as it rolls around inside the pocket. Furthermore, if the seal is incomplete, the surface treatment agent inside will ooze out when you carry it around, staining your clothes. Furthermore, since the surface treatment agent is sprayed onto the spectacle lenses and then wiped off with a cloth, contaminants adhering to the lenses cannot be sufficiently removed.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The present invention was proposed in view of the above, and includes a surface treatment agent holding member that has countless continuous fine voids inside the container and retains the surface treatment agent by capillary action. The proximal end portion of the surface treatment agent outflow member is inserted into the narrow opening formed at one end of the container, and the application portion at the tip protrudes outward from the opening. The continuous fine pores of the surface treatment agent outflow member are made smaller than the continuous fine pores of the surface treatment agent holding member, and the surface treatment agent held in the surface treatment agent holding member is passed through the surface treatment agent outflow member to the tip. The present invention relates to a surface treatment tool for eyeglasses which is made to ooze out onto the applied area.

(Function) Therefore, according to the present invention, by rubbing the applied part on the lens surface of eyeglasses, the surface treatment agent can remove contaminants adhering to the lens surface, and the entire surface of the lens can be evenly anti-fogged. be able to.

(Example) The present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 is a flat container for a surface treatment tool for eyeglasses that is open at one end. A drug holding member 2 is housed. This holding member 2 is made of non-woven fabric, felt, sponge, etc. and has countless continuous fine voids, and the surface treatment agent is adsorbed and held in the continuous fine voids by capillary action.

The opening member 3 is fitted into the open end of the container 1 described above. This opening member 3 consists of a fitting part 4 with an open bottom surface that fits along the inner surface from the open end of the container 1, and a narrow opening part 5 extending upward from the fitting part 4.
A passage 6 whose upper surface is open is formed in the passage 6, and a narrow vertical slit 6' is provided on the inner surface of the passage 6. A surface treatment agent outflow member 7 is inserted into the passage 6 of the opening 5.

According to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the surface treatment agent outflow member 7 extends from the surface treatment agent holding member 2 and is compressed in the thickness direction, so that continuous fine voids in the outflow member 7 are formed. is smaller than the continuous fine voids of the holding member 2. Further, since the outflow member 7 and the holding member 2 are integrated, the base end portion 8 of the outflow member 7 is continuous with the holding member 2.

The distal end portion of the surface treatment agent outflow member 7 protrudes outward from the mouth portion 5, and the distal end edge forms an application portion 9. The application portion 9 may be slightly inclined with respect to the direction perpendicular to the length of the outflow member 7, or may have an arcuate surface.

The surface treatment tool for eyeglasses of the present invention is constructed as described above, and when not in use, a cap (not shown) is attached to the mouth portion 5 to prevent the surface treatment agent from evaporating or It is sufficient to prevent the treatment agent from seeping out.

Since the surface treatment agent impregnated in the holding member 2 is slightly impregnated in the application part 9 by passing through the outflow member 7, the application part 9 is rubbed against the lens surface of the glasses to apply the surface treatment agent to the lens. At the same time as applying it to the lens surface, wipe off any contaminants adhering to the lens surface. Therefore, if this method is used, the lens surface of the glasses will be sufficiently treated.
If necessary, you can wipe the lens surface with a soft cloth or paper.

In another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 3, the surface treatment agent holding member 2 and the surface treatment agent outflow member 7 are formed separately, and the tip of the surface treatment agent holding member 2 and the base end of the surface treatment agent outflow member are formed separately. It is made to be continuous by bringing them into contact with each other. Specifically, a V-shaped notch 2' is formed at the tip of the surface treatment agent holding member 2, and a V-shaped tapered extension 10 is formed at the base end portion 8 of the surface treatment agent outflow member 7. , the cut portion 2' and the tapered extension portion 10 are brought into surface contact. Also in this embodiment, the surface treatment agent outflow member 7
Although the continuous fine voids are smaller than the continuous fine voids of the surface treatment agent holding member 2, the outflow member 7 can be made of sponge or felt, and the holding member can be made of a nonwoven fabric.

Such a configuration is easy to assemble, and there is no waste when cutting the holding member and the outflow member from a thick sheet material. Further, the surface treatment agent impregnated in the holding member can easily flow through the outflow member and ooze out to the application area.

In addition, the symbols not explained in Fig. 3 are number 1.
Since it has the same reference numerals and the same configuration as in the embodiment shown in FIG.

(Effects of the invention) As is clear from the above, according to the invention, the surface treatment agent is not filled inside the container, but is adsorbed and held by the holding member by capillary action, so that the surface treatment agent does not bleed. There's nothing to release. Therefore, even if the seal between the container and the mouth member is insufficient, the surface treatment agent will not flow out, so it is sufficient to connect the container and the mouth member with adhesive to the extent that they cannot be separated, which simplifies the manufacturing process. It is possible to aim for or,
Since the container and the opening member do not need to be screwed together using packing or the like, the container can be flattened as a whole for easy portability.

Furthermore, since the surface treatment agent is applied by directly rubbing the surface of the eyeglass lens with the application part of the outflow member, contaminants adhering to the lens can be reliably removed, resulting in a high cleaning effect and an extremely good anti-fog effect. .

In addition, in the present invention, the continuous fine voids of the surface treatment agent holding member are relatively large, and the continuous fine voids of the surface treatment agent outflow member are smaller than the continuous fine voids of the surface treatment agent holding member, so that the surface treatment agent is not contained inside the container. Even if the holding member is stored, a large amount of surface treatment agent can be stored, and even if a large amount of surface treatment agent is stored in the surface treatment agent holding member, the surface connected to this surface treatment agent holding member can be stored. Since the continuous fine voids of the treatment agent outflow member are smaller than the continuous fine voids of the surface treatment agent holding member, the amount of surface treatment agent flowing out during use can be adjusted by the small fine voids to prevent excessive outflow. Furthermore, by reducing the continuous fine voids in the surface treatment agent outflow member, it is possible to use a surface treatment agent outflow member with high strength, thereby making it possible to prevent the applied portion from being crushed or bent during use. If the application part at the tip of the surface treatment agent outflow member is hard to collapse or bend, it is possible to prevent the surface treatment agent outflow member from being crushed and the impregnated surface treatment agent to inadvertently seep out when the lens surface is wiped. The surface of the lens can be wiped securely.
Also, the mouth part will not hit the lens and cause damage.
Therefore, it has high practical value as a surface treatment tool for portable eyeglasses.
