Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention stores so-called wet napkins, tissues, and towels (hereinafter referred to as storage objects) impregnated with liquid, and when using the storage objects, the top surface can be removed. This invention relates to a storage container that allows stored items to be pulled out from an outlet.

(Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention) Conventionally, this type of storage item that is commonly available on the market has been folded and stored in a container so that it can be continuously pulled out from the top surface. has been done. Such a container is called a pop-up type container, and has an outlet portion on the top surface covered with a plastic film and a notch provided in the film for pulling out the stored items. However, these containers
Although it is convenient to pull out stored items from the outlet on the top surface, a part of the stored item to be pulled out next is always exposed from the outlet, which has the disadvantage that germs may adhere to it.

On the other hand, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, there are also commercially available storage containers in which the outlet portion is configured to be resealable. However, with these containers, as the number of stacked items decreases due to consumption, the vertical distance between the next item to be pulled out and the outlet increases, so if the container is moved or tipped over, the contents may The problem is that the liquid can freely float around inside the container and become unevenly distributed, making it difficult to pull it out from the outlet.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an extensible bellows-shaped finger insertion guide having an ejection opening on the top surface into which a lid member is fitted, and to elastically remove stored items at the ejection opening located in the finger insertion guide. It is an object of the present invention to provide a container which can eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks by constantly pressing the container and inserting a hand into the finger insertion guide to draw out the stored items.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object includes a container body having an outlet in the center of the upper wall, and a lid member that fits into the outlet. This applies to storage containers for wet napkins, etc.

In the container, a finger insertion guide portion is provided on the upper wall in a peripheral portion around the outlet portion. The finger insertion guide section has a plurality of concave and convex stripes concentric with the outlet section, and is formed into a bellows shape having elasticity to extend downwardly into the container main body.

(Function) In the present invention having the above configuration, the outlet portion located at the center of the finger insertion guide portion always comes into elastic pressure contact with the upper surface of the item stored in the container body. The finger insertion guide part is provided by forming the upper surface wall of the peripheral part around the outlet part into an elastic bellows shape having a plurality of concave and convex stripes concentric with the outlet part. As the stacked number of stored items decreases due to consumption, they gradually hang down and extend into the container body in a pop-up manner, that is, they maintain the pressed state while deforming three-dimensionally from a flat state.

(Example) The present invention will be explained based on the illustrated example.
It is as follows.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the container consists of a container body 1 and a lid member 2, which are molded from synthetic resin, water-resistant cardboard, or the like. Container body 1
An outlet 4 is provided in the center of the upper wall 3 of the apparatus, and an annular projection 5 is provided at the inner end of the outlet.

The top wall 3 of the peripheral area around the outlet 4 has a plurality of concave and convex stripes concentrically with the outlet 4, and has a bellows shape that has elasticity in hanging extension.
A finger insertion guide portion 6 is provided by forming the finger insertion guide portion 6 into a shape. The finger insertion guide portion 6 is always elastically pressed against the upper surface of several stored items 7 stacked and stored inside the container body 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the stored items 7 are stacked and stored in the container body 1 at a height close to the top wall 3, the finger insertion guide portion 6 is in a substantially flat state. However, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, as the number of stacked items 7 decreases due to consumption, it shrinks inside the container body 1 due to the elastic action of the finger insertion guide. It has a function of gradually extending downwardly in a pop-up shape, that is, maintaining a state of pressure contact with the upper surface of the stored item 7 while deforming three-dimensionally from a flat state.

The lid member 2 is provided with an annular step 8 on its outer surface that fits into the annular projection 5, and is integrally connected to the side surface of the container body 1 by an extension piece 9 of the lid member. The lid member is removed from the outlet portion 4 by gripping a gripping piece 10 provided on the lid member and pulling up the lid member.

In the present invention having such a configuration, the second
As shown in the figure, the stored item 7 is stored in the container body 1 with the finger insertion guide part 6 contracted against its elasticity, and the stored item 7 is removed from the opening part 4 when the lid member 2 is removed. After that, the hand is inserted into the finger insertion guide part 6 and pulled out from the outlet part 4.

(Effects of the invention) The present invention has the above-described structure, and as the number of items stored in the container body decreases, the finger insertion guide part gradually extends downward into the container body in a hopper shape, and the finger insertion guide Since the top surface of the stored item is constantly pressed elastically by the ejection opening located in the center of the part, it is possible to insert your hand into the finger insertion guide part and pull out the stored item with the last item pressed against it. Can be done. In addition, since the ejection opening of the finger insertion guide elastically presses every last piece of the stored item, even if the container body is moved or falls over, the stored items will not move around unnecessarily and become unevenly distributed when pulled out. It never becomes difficult.

Furthermore, although the finger insertion guide has a structure in which it extends downward as described above, since the lid member is fitted to the outlet of the finger insertion guide, it is possible to keep the inside of the container body sanitary. can.
