Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Fields> This invention relates to an ashtray that can be placed, for example, on a car's dart board or on a desk.

<Prior art> Most conventional ashtrays have at least the main body made of a heat-resistant material, such as ceramic, bronze, stainless steel, or aluminum, but some Some are made of thermosetting synthetic resin.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> The former allows for products that take advantage of the characteristics of each material, such as gloss, but the main disadvantage is that it is heavy; the latter is lightweight, can be colored freely, and can be produced in large quantities. Although it has the advantage of being suitable for production, it does not have as much flexibility in moldability as thermoplastic synthetic resins molded using in-die extension.
There is a problem that ashtrays are limited to simple shapes that are close to flat, making it difficult to make full use of creativity.Therefore, it is hoped that an ashtray molded using thermoplastic synthetic resin, which has better formability, will emerge.

<Means for solving the problem> The problem solving means in this invention is the main body A of the ashtray.
is a hemispherical dome-shaped lower body 1 made of thermoplastic synthetic resin.
and an annular upper body 3 which is removably provided on the open side of the lower body 1 and has an opening 2, and a heat insulating layer 7 is formed by applying a silicone material to the inner surface of the body A.
A stand B on which the main body A is placed is formed separately from the main body A, and the stand B fits into the spherical surface 1a of the lower body 1 and slidably guides the spherical surface 1a. A magnetic metal plate 9 is fixed to the spherical surface 1a, and a magnet 11 for contacting and attracting the magnetic metal plate 9 is provided on the guide concave surface 1b.

<Function> In the above problem solving means, since the material is thermoplastic synthetic resin, the ashtray can be created in any shape,
The heat resistance weakness of the material can be compensated for by forming a heat insulating layer 7 on the inner surface by applying a silicone material. Also, when the main body A is held and moved, the magnetic metal plate 9 arranged on the spherical surface 1a of the lower body 1 remains attracted to the magnet 11, and the spherical surface 1a is moved to the base B.
is guided by the concave surface 1b, and the main body A rotates on the spot.
The opening 2 remains at the desired position.

<Embodiment> In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the main body of the ashtray is formed into a spherical hollow body with a hood, a stand for placing the main body on a tabletop, etc. is formed separately, and the joint surface between the main body and the stand is formed separately. This is a case in which the main body is formed into a curved surface and the main body can be moved toward and away from the base by attraction of a magnet.The present invention will be described below with respect to this embodiment.

In the figure, A is the ashtray body, and B is a stand fixed to a desk or the like via an adhesive, both of which are molded products of thermoplastic synthetic resin. The ashtray body A has a lower body 1 formed in a hemispherical dome shape, and an opening 2 formed in a horizontally elongated oval shape for dropping cigarette ash into the body, and is detachably attached to the lower body 1. The annular upper body 3 to be fitted is supported by bearings 4 integrally formed on both inner sides of the lower body 1, and swings vertically along the inside of the upper body 3 to open and close the opening 2. It has a hood 5 that slides the serrations 5' on the upper edge of the opening 2 and stops at the open position, and a brushing metal fitting 6 that stands up from the bottom of the lower body 1, and has The inner surface of the main body A consisting of a hood 5 is covered with a heat insulating layer 7 formed by spray coating a silicone material.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a joint surface to the base B, which is formed by integrally fixing a metal plate 9 having an equivalent curved surface to the back surface of the main body A, as shown in FIG. The table B has a ring seat 10 on the upper surface to which the joint surface 8 is joined,
A disk-shaped magnet 11 is provided in the center of the ring seat 10, which attracts the ashtray main body A through the metal plate 9 so as to be able to move toward and away from the ashtray body.

Next, to explain the operation, this ashtray constructed as described above is fixed to a desired table top such as a car dash board by forming an adhesive layer on the back surface of the stand B by adhering, for example, double-sided adhesive tape. . Also, main body A
When the lower body 1 is held and moved, the magnetic metal plate 9 arranged on the spherical surface 1a of the lower body 1 remains attracted to the magnet 11, and the spherical surface 1a is guided to the concave surface 1b of the base B, causing the body A to rotate on the spot. However, since the opening 2 remains stationary at a desired position, it can be used according to the user's height and preference.

In addition, the back side of main body A tilted at a desired angle can be used by adhering to magnet 11, or main body A can be removed from stand B and carried to a smoking area, or used by removing it when throwing away watermelons. You can also do it.

<Effects of the invention> As is clear from the above description, the present invention has an ashtray whose main body has a hemispherical dome-shaped lower body made of thermoplastic synthetic resin, and which is removably provided on the open side of the lower body and has an opening. an annular upper body having an inner surface of the body, a heat insulating layer is formed by applying a silicone material to the inner surface of the body, a stand on which the body is placed is formed separately from the body, and the stand has the A guide concave surface is formed that fits into the spherical surface of the lower body and slidably guides the spherical surface, a magnetic metal plate is fixed to the spherical surface, and a magnet that contacts and attracts the magnetic metal plate is provided on the guide concave surface. Therefore, it is possible to manufacture an ashtray with a three-dimensional shape. In addition, the inner surface is coated with silicone material to form a heat insulating layer, making it heat resistant and offering excellent fire safety.This makes it possible to create new ashtrays that are compatible with today's active society. When you hold the main body and move it, the magnetic metal plate arranged on the spherical surface of the lower body remains attracted to the magnet, and the spherical surface is guided to the concave surface of the base, and the main body rotates in place, opening the opening. Since it stands still at a desired position, it has the practical effect of being able to be used according to the user's height and preferences.
