Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field] This invention relates to a container containing paint.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, commonly used paint cans include:
There are those shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.
The paint can shown in FIG. 6 has a small outlet at the corner of the ceiling 1, and a crown cap 2 is attached to the outlet. The paint can shown in FIG. 7 has a round hole serving as an outlet in the center of the ceiling 3, and a round lid (wide-mouthed round lid) 4 is attached to the outlet.

In the paint cans shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, since the outlet is narrow, it is not possible to directly insert a paint roller into the paint can to deposit paint. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, the paint 6 is deposited on the coating roller 7 after the paint is once taken out onto the tray 5.

[Problem that the invention aims to solve] However, with this method, there are problems such as the need to prepare a tray when painting, and the need to take out paint into the tray each time, making the painting work complicated. There's a problem. In addition, with the paint cans shown in Figures 6 and 7, if highly viscous paint is contained, it is difficult to remove it from the can, and the paint that adheres to the inner surface of the can is lost. There is also.

In order to make it possible to insert a roller into the paint can and to easily remove the paint stuck to the inside of the can, it is possible to cut out the roof of the paint can. However, it is difficult to cut out the ceiling, and there is a risk of cutting one's hand when cutting out the ceiling. Additionally, there is a high risk of getting your hands cut on the edge of the opening created after cutting out the ceiling. Furthermore, when the roller is transported from the tray to the coating surface, there is another problem in that the paint runs off the roller and stains the floor.

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a paint container that makes painting work easier and prevents the paint from running off the rollers and staining the floor, etc. That is the issue.

[Measures to solve the problem]

In order to solve these problems, this idea
A dye container each comprising a container body in which paint is stored and a lid that closes an opening of the container body,
The opening of the container body is large enough to allow the rotating part of the coating roller to pass through, and the lid has a shallow tray shape and has a paint adhesion amount adjusting means consisting of a large number of protrusions. The plurality of convex portions provided on the bottom portion are configured to have substantially the same height so as to constitute a surface that allows the rotating body to roll, and the convex portions adjacent to each other have substantially the same height. A paint container having a height such that a space is formed between adjacent convex portions in which the paint squeezed out from the rotating body falls when the peripheral surface of the rotating body is received between the containers. The gist is:

[Effect]

In this way, this paint container is designed so that the rotating body of the roller can be passed through the opening of the container body, so there is no need to separately prepare a tray and take out the paint onto the tray. Also, even if a highly viscous paint is used,
Paint attached to the can can be easily removed. Furthermore, since the amount of paint adhering to the rotating body can be adjusted by the paint adhesion amount adjusting means provided on the lid, the paint does not run off the roller when the roller is transported to the coating surface. This planar paint adhesion amount adjustment means allows the paint to be evenly distributed on the rotating surface of the roller.
It can also prevent uneven paint. In this case, the paint adhesion amount adjusting means has a large number of protrusions that form a surface that allows the rotating body of the roller to roll, so when the rotating body is rolling, it The paint contained in the rotating body of the roller can be efficiently squeezed by repeatedly hitting these many convex portions from the surface. In particular, when the viscosity of the paint used is high, the paint tends to adhere to convex parts.
It is easy to weaken the straining action of the convex portions, but since there are many convex portions in this paint adhesion amount adjusting means, the convex portions that receive this weakening effect are limited to the first few, and the majority The convex portion is not subject to the weakening effect.

〔Example〕

This invention will be explained in detail below based on drawings showing embodiments.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the paint container according to the present invention, in which a large number of convex portions of the paint adhesion amount adjusting means are formed by concave and convex stripes. As shown in this figure, the paint container includes a container body 8 in which paint is stored and a lid 9a that closes an opening 8a of the container body 8. The main body 8 is
It is rectangular in plan and has an oven-like shape with the entire top open. And opening 8a
From there, the rotating body 7a of the coating roller 7 can be inserted. An edge eye 8b is provided on the edge of the opening 8a, and handles 10 are provided on both sides. The edge catch 8b and handle 10 are not necessarily required. The lid body 9a is a covering lid that is placed over the opening 8a to close it, and the ceiling is bent to have a corrugated cross section and has a plurality of parallel uneven stripes formed thereon. 7 as paint adhesion amount adjusting means 11. In this case, the tops of the many convex parts in the uneven stripes are
Both have the same height and constitute a surface on which the rotating body 7a of the roller can roll. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the paint adhesion amount adjusting means 11 is integrally formed with the lid 9a. Here, the paint adhesion amount adjusting means 11 is provided on the upper surface of the stand 18, and is positioned higher than the recess 19 provided around the stand 18, but it is not necessary to do so.

This paint container is used as follows.
First, as shown in FIG.
The rotating body 7a is inserted through the main body opening 8a, and the paint 6 is applied to the rotating body 7a. Next, as shown in FIG. 2a, the rotor 7a is rolled on the adjusting means 11 of the lid 9a that has been turned upside down, and the paint adhering to the rotor 7a is rubbed off, and the paint is removed from the rotor 7a. Adjust the amount of paint applied. Excess paint 6 flows from the recess 11a of the adjusting means 11 to the recess 19 and accumulates there. The paint adhesion amount adjusting means 11 may not be provided on the stand 18, and excess paint may accumulate in the recess 11a. After this, the roller 7 is brought to the coating surface and coating is performed.

In the embodiment described above, the paint adhesion amount adjusting means is molded integrally with the lid body, but as shown in FIG. Paint adhesion amount adjusting means 1 consisting of
2 may be provided inside the lid body 9b, so that the paint adhesion amount adjusting means, which is originally separate, and the lid body may be integrated.

When providing a paint adhesion amount adjusting means consisting of uneven stripes, the shape of the uneven stripes is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, as shown in Figure 4,
Adjustment means 13 having concave and convex stripes having a trapezoidal cross section arranged in parallel may be provided on the ceiling of the lid body 9c.

The shape and structure of the convex portion of the paint adhesion amount adjusting means is not limited to the uneven stripe. That is, for example, it may have a shape structure as shown in FIG. In the lid body shown in FIG. 5, a large number of point-like projections (independent projections) 14 . This constitutes a paint adhesion amount adjusting means. Also in this case, a large number of protrusions 14
The tops of ... are all at the same height and constitute a surface on which the rotating body 7a of the roller can roll. The lid body and the projections do not necessarily have to be integrally molded, and a plate body having a large number of projections may be provided inside the lid body.

In addition, if a bag for storing the paint is provided inside the container body, the following effects can be obtained.
That is, as shown in FIG. 1b, the bag 2
By bending the opening of the bag 20 outward so that it covers the edge of the opening of the container body 8, and using the paint 6 inside the bag 20, it is possible to prevent the container body 8 from getting dirty with the paint 6. . Moreover, if the opening of the bag 20 is closed with a rubber band or the like during transportation, it becomes easy to prevent the paint from leaking at all. As the bag, one made of synthetic resin (plastic) or the like is used.

The container body does not necessarily have to be rectangular in plan. Further, it is not necessarily necessary that the entire upper surface is open, as long as the opening allows the rotating body of the roller to pass through.

The paint container according to this invention is made from surface-treated steel plates such as steel plates, tin plates, other metal plates, plastics, and the like. When the lid body or plate body provided with irregularities and protrusions is made from a metal plate, it can be obtained by using a conventionally commonly used embossing method, corrugating method, etc. Even when plastics are used, it can be obtained by using conventionally commonly used molding methods such as wave molding.

[Effect of idea]

The paint container according to this invention is constructed as described above, and the opening of the container body is adapted to allow the coating roller to pass through, and the lid body is provided with a means for adjusting the amount of paint applied by the coating roller. This makes painting work easier and prevents the paint from running off the rollers and staining the floor etc. In this case, the paint adhesion amount adjusting means of the paint container according to the present invention is configured such that a surface that allows the rotating body of the roller to roll is formed by a large number of convex portions. When the roller rotates, its circumferential surface repeatedly hits these many convex portions, making it possible to efficiently squeeze out the paint contained in the rotating body of the roller. In particular, when the viscosity of the paint used is high, the paint tends to adhere to the convex parts and weaken the squeezing action of the convex parts, but with this paint adhesion amount adjusting means, since there are many convex parts The convex portions that are subject to such a weakening effect are limited to the first few, and the majority of the convex portions are not subject to the weakening effect, and are always able to efficiently squeeze the paint and exert the adhesion amount adjustment effect well. .
