Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a gauze storage container.

(Prior art) A so-called chuck bag is a bag made of synthetic resin film, which has an interlocking device consisting of a pair of protrusions and grooves formed on the inside surface of the opening so that it can be opened and closed repeatedly.
It is widely used in many fields because it has high sealing, moisture-proof, and dust-proof properties, is hygienic, and is inexpensive. FIG. 1 shows a conventional chuck bag 1. In the figure, 2 is a chuck portion. When using such a chuck bag as a storage container for dry gauze or wet gauze, the bottom end of the bag is left open as shown in FIG. After the opening end 3 is welded, it is stored in a predetermined case made of cardboard or the like.

However, the chuck bags currently in use have a chuck part formed from one end of the bag to the other, so it is necessary to open the entire chuck part in order to take out the contents inside the bag. On the other hand, the entire chuck must be closed afterwards, which is a complicated operation, and the opening is large, making it easier for the contents to dry out, especially if wet gauze is used, and there is a risk of contamination from dust in the air. also becomes larger. In particular, if the contents require sealing of the bag, it is necessary to check the bag each time the contents are taken out, and for this purpose, the shorter the chuck, the easier it is. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 3, when the chuck bag 1'' is housed in a paper case 4 or the like, the chuck bag is conventionally made by combining two sheets for manufacturing reasons. The chuck part is larger than the width of the container, so the user (consumer) has to pull the entire chuck part out of the case to take out the contents, and then fold both ends of the chuck part to close the case. Requires complicated work.

On the other hand, in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, there is a method in which the gauze is stored in a synthetic resin bag 6 having a partial opening/closing mechanism using an opening piece 5 as shown in FIG. 4, and then stored in a partially opening case 8 shown in FIG. be. but,
Such bags are relatively expensive, and the adhesive 7 for fixing the opening piece 5 shown in FIG. When stored, the moisture adheres to the adhesive, reducing its adhesive performance and rendering it ineffective. Furthermore, even if the conventional chuck bag 1 or 1'' is used as is in the partially open case 7, the chuck will open beyond the opening width of the case when the chuck is opened, making it difficult to close the chuck after taking out the contents. Possible or extremely difficult.

(Object of the Invention) The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, and its purpose is to make it easier to use the product by making it possible to quickly and easily open and close the contents outlet. To provide an inexpensive and easily manufactured gauze storage container that does not impair the quality of the products contained therein and does not impair the luxury of the products by being stored in a partially open case.

(Structure of the Invention) That is, in the gauze storage container of the present invention, an opening narrower than the width of the side or surface is formed on one side or one surface of the bag-like container made of a water-resistant material, and the opening is formed in the opening. It is characterized by being equipped with a removable engagement tool for freely opening and closing.

Materials that can be used for the gauze storage container of the present invention include general-purpose resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinyl chloride, and water-resistant materials such as laminates of these resins and paper, cloth, metal foil, etc., which are usually flexible packages. You can use the one used in

The size and shape of the container are optimally selected depending on the size, shape, and amount of gauze to be stored inside. Rectangular or rectangular bags are easy to use.

The width of the opening should be within the range that allows easy removal of the gauze, but not too wide. For example, if you take it out by hand, it is best to make it so that your thumb and index finger can fit inside. Further, the opening can be provided at any position of the container, but it is preferable to provide the opening at a position where the gauze can be easily taken out when the gauze storage container is further housed in a paper case having a partial opening.

As the removable interlocking device for opening and closing the opening, commonly used devices such as protrusions and grooves formed integrally with the container body can be used.

(Example) The present invention will be explained in further detail in the following example. Note that the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

The gauze storage container of the present invention is manufactured by the following method.

Manufacturing Example 1 A raw fabric 9 made of synthetic resin film with a chuck portion 2 shown in FIG.
The gauze storage container 10 of the present invention having the shape shown in the figure can be manufactured. Further, when the raw fabric 9 is formed into a cylinder, it is welded and fused as shown by A in the figure, and then the bottom is cut off to accommodate the contents. Alternatively, by welding and cutting as shown by A in the figure while storing the contents in a cylindrical original fabric, the gauze storage container of the present invention containing the contents can be manufactured in one step.

Manufacturing Example 2 A wet gauze storage container 10 as shown in FIG. 8 is obtained by welding and cutting an original fabric 9' made of synthetic resin film with a chuck 2 in the center as shown in FIG. 9 into the shape shown by B in the figure. be able to. This method allows the entire chuck portion 2 to be used without waste. In this manufacturing example, when welding and cutting, the center of the welding width is cut with a cutting blade.

In order to store the contents in the gauze storage bag of the present invention obtained in Production Examples 1 and 2 above, the chuck part 2 is manufactured with the bag closed, so the chuck part 2 is opened and stored, and then the chuck part 2 is closed. Alternatively, this can be done by storing the contents from the open bottom and then welding the bottom part, but it is better to store the contents from the bottom because it has a wider opening because the work can be done more easily and quickly. desirable.

Manufacturing Example 3 The gauze storage container of the present invention may also be formed by storing the contents (dry gauze or wet gauze) in a chuck bag with an open bottom and then forming a partial opening. At this time, by welding the bottom of the chuck bag at the same time, it becomes possible to produce the product more efficiently.

FIG. 10 is a front view showing the manufacturing process of the storage container of the present invention containing gauze, and shows the state before heat sealing. In the figure, 11 is the lower part of the heat sealing machine, 12 is a heater with a blade on the outer side of the storage container, 13 is a notch part for forming a cut in the storage container, 14 is gauze, and 15 is a fixing block. .

Alternatively, it may be cut in the shape of a dashed dotted line indicated by C in the figure. These gauze storage containers can also be manufactured by processing conventional chuck bags.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the gauze storage container of the present invention is a bag-like container made of a water-resistant material, and has an outlet narrower than the width of one side or surface of the container, which is equipped with a removable engagement tool. Therefore, the opening and closing operation when taking out the gauze contents becomes easy and can be done quickly. The gauze storage container of the present invention includes:
It is especially useful when the contents are made by folding and stacking multiple sheets of wet gauze, and it is easy to operate when taking out the contents and sealing them afterwards, and prevents contamination and drying of the contents. This is highly effective in preventing quality deterioration. In addition, when the product is stored in a case with a partial opening, it is very convenient to use because the outlet can be opened and closed while the product is stored in the case without having to pull out the entire outlet part of the storage container. It does not give consumers the impression of a cheap chuck bag and does not detract from the luxury of the product. Furthermore, since the opening of the storage container is narrow, the contents do not come out more than intended, making it economical and cheaper than bags with conventional partial opening mechanisms, making it a product that stores gauze. This is effective in reducing manufacturing costs.
