Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a filth collecting tool, and particularly to a filth collecting tool used for removing filth such as dog excrement excreted on the street.

[Conventional technology]

In order to remove feces excreted by their dogs on the street, owners have traditionally carried along a special collection tool such as a shovel and a plastic bag, or a long-handled dust pan with a lid. Recently, as shown in FIG. 6, a pair of semi-cylindrical bodies a closed at both ends in the axial direction and a handle b protruding from the outside of the circumferential wall are integrally made of a hard resin. The parts of
One of the mutually opposing ends C of each peripheral wall is hinged, and the other d is pressed against each other by a spring member, etc., and by manually operating the handles b, the other peripheral wall end There are also products on the market in which d can be opened and closed.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned shovels, plastic bags, dustpans, and the like are not only inconvenient to carry, but also unsightly, and have disadvantages such as being time-consuming to remove dirt. Compared to these, the one with the semi-cylindrical body has slightly improved portability and appearance, but it is still considered to be sufficient because the diameter x length of the cylindrical part is large, about 6 x 15 cm. There are disadvantages such as the foul odor of the filth easily leaking out due to the poor airtightness and the fact that the outer surface of the tool gets soiled when collecting the filth, making it easy for clothes to get soiled when carrying it. Furthermore, in any of these methods, the inconvenience of cleaning after use is unavoidable.

The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and has excellent portability and appearance, is simple and easy to handle, can reliably remove dirt, has excellent airtightness, and has To provide a filth collection tool that does not require cleaning after use and does not stain hands, clothes, etc.

[Means to solve the problem]

The present invention provides an outer box formed from a lightweight waterproof plate-like material into a rectangular tube shape with a bottom that can be folded into a flat shape, and a bag-like shape that can be housed in the outer box from a flexible waterproof material. It is characterized by having an inner bag.

[Effect]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when not in use, the outer box is folded into a flat shape with the inner bag still housed for convenient storage and portability. In addition, when collecting waste, the outer box is expanded to form a rectangular tube shape, and the opening edge of the inner bag is folded outward so as to wrap the inner and outer edges of the opening. Opening edges on both sides? Dirt is taken into the inner bag by pressing it with your fingers. After the collection is completed, the opening edge of the inner bag is removed from the opening edge of the outer box and then sealed and pushed into the outer box, and the outer box is carried to an appropriate disposal site with the opening closed. The whole thing is just thrown away.

〔Example〕

The present invention will be described below with reference to an illustrated embodiment.

In FIG. 1, an outer box 1 is formed from a lightweight waterproof plate-like material (for example, cardboard treated with appropriate waterproofing) into a rectangular tube shape with a bottom, and has a front part 2, a rear part 3, both side parts 4.4, and a bottom part. 5, and an opening 6 is formed at the other end facing the bottom 5. Then, by folding the front part 2 and both side parts 4, 4 along preset fold lines 7 and 8 as shown by dashed lines, the front part 2 and both side parts 4, 4 can be folded into a flat shape as shown in FIG. It has become. The inner bag 9 is made of a flexible waterproof material (for example, vinyl of an appropriate thickness) and is formed into a bag shape that can be accommodated in the outer box 1.

When the tool configured as described above is not in use, it is folded into a flat shape as shown in FIG. 2 with the inner bag 9 housed in the outer box 1. )
etc. are performed in this state.

Also, when using this, follow the steps described above.

■ Unfold the folded outer box 1 into a rectangular tube shape with a bottom as shown in FIG.

■ Pull out the opening edge of the inner bag 9 to the outside as shown in FIG. The opening edges of parts 4, 4 are slightly pushed out in the outward direction.

■ Turn the outer box 1 and the inner bag 9 upside down and cover the waste 10 as shown in FIG. Take it into bag 9.

■ As shown in Figure (C), turn over the outer box 1, remove the opening edge of the inner bag 9 from the opening edge of the outer box 1, and then push it inside so as to seal it. Push the opening edges of both side parts 4, 4 inward.

(2) As shown in FIG. 1D, the outer box 1 is carried with the opening edges of the front 2 and rear 3 in close contact with each other, and the whole box is disposed of at a designated disposal site.

That is, in the above-mentioned embodiment, since it is folded into a flat shape when not in use, it is extremely convenient to store and transport, especially when carrying a small number, such as in a pocket, etc., and also looks good before and after use. . In addition, filth can be easily and reliably collected without the need for an auxiliary tool such as a shovel, and there is no risk of soiling hands, clothes, the outer surface of the outer box 1, etc. at this time.

Furthermore, since the waste is double-enclosed by the inner bag 9 and the outer box 1, it has excellent airtightness, and there is no chance of bad odors being dissipated or clothes being soiled while being carried. Further, after use, the outer box 1 can be simply thrown away together with the contents at a predetermined disposal site, so there is no need to clean the tools, and there is no risk of contaminating the environment.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments; for example, instead of folding the front part 2 along the fold line 7, the outer box 1 may be bent in the lateral direction instead of the front part 2 as shown in FIGS. Fold 1
1 (see FIG. 2), or, if necessary, both or one of the side portions 4, 4 may be folded so that the crease 8 is exposed outside. Further, as illustrated in FIG. 4, an appropriate adhesive tape 12 or the like may be pasted on the inner surface of the opening edge of the rear part 3 (or front part 2) of the outer box l in advance, and the seal 13 may be peeled off after the waste is contained. By bonding the front part 2 and the rear part 3 together, the sealing effect and the convenience of carrying can be improved. Or the fifth
The front part 2 and rear part 3 of the outer box 1 as illustrated in Figure (A)
is formed to be longer than the side parts 4, 4, and horizontal folds 14 and 15 are provided in this extension, and as shown in FIG. If it is bent, the work of collecting the waste 10 can be made easier. Furthermore, appropriate hanging handles are provided in advance on the outer box 1 (for example, the front part 2 and the rear part 3) so that it is convenient to carry after collecting the filth, but does not adversely affect the collection work or the folded shape. You can also keep it. If necessary, throw away the inner bag 9 along with the waste and put it in the outer box l.
may be reused.

In addition, various modifications and applications are possible within the scope of the gist of the present invention.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, as described above, it has excellent portability and appearance, is simple and easy to handle, can reliably remove dirt, has excellent airtightness, does not require cleaning after use, and can be used easily and easily. It is possible to provide a filth collection tool that does not stain clothes or clothes.
