Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention relates to a deodorizing or aromatic device.

(Prior Art) Conventional deodorizing or fragrance tools are made by mixing a deodorant with a gelling agent to form a gel, and placing the mixture in a suitably shaped container, or placing the deodorant in an aqueous solution in a container. Vaporization is performed naturally or forcibly by blowing air through holes previously drilled in the container. It eliminates odors from the surrounding area and even releases a fragrant scent.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in these conventional deodorants, the deodorant on the surface of the gel or aqueous solution of the deodorant evaporates quickly, and the moisture on this surface tends to disappear. When the moisture on this surface part disappears, this part becomes hard and becomes a lid, and the deodorant at the bottom evaporates slowly, only a small amount of it evaporates.
As described above, the vaporization state tends to change easily and has the disadvantage of lack of durability.

The purpose of this invention is to eliminate these drawbacks and provide a deodorizing or fragrance tool in which the vaporization of the deodorant or fragrance is stable over a long period of time.

(Means for solving the problem) Therefore, this invention prepares a plate-like body made of fibrous material, and mixes a gelling agent and a deodorant or aromatic agent in water on one or both sides of this plate-like body. apply the
After drying, this plate-like body is bent or wound into a cylindrical shape, and the side surfaces of a plurality of plate-like bodies are overlapped and inserted into a closed container, and the closed container is provided with appropriate ventilation holes.

Furthermore, when mixing the above-mentioned gelling agent, deodorant or aromatic agent, and water, a granular porous material such as activated carbon, ceramics, or stone may be mixed therein.

(Function) The deodorant or aromatic agent is attached to a plate-like body made of a fibrous material, and this fibrous material has a large number of fluffy fibers, so it has a large surface area and therefore has a strong adsorption force. Therefore, on the overlapping sides of the plate-like body, the gel-like deodorant or aromatic agent is less likely to come into contact with the air and has a large adsorption or retention power, but the parts that are in contact with the air have a large surface area as described above, so it is difficult to deodorize. Odorants tend to evaporate together with water. What's more, deodorant and water are supplied to vaporized areas exposed to air through the fiber walls to create a saturated state.

Therefore, the deodorant is stably vaporized together with water from the parts of the plate that come in contact with the air, and if the area of these parts is controlled, stable vaporization can be achieved over a long period of time.

Furthermore, if a particulate porous material such as ceramics is mixed into the solution applied to the plate-shaped body, the adhesion of the deodorant or aromatic agent will increase, and the vaporization of the agent can be maintained for a long period of time. Furthermore, even after the deodorizing agent applied to the plate-like body is used up, these porous materials absorb surrounding odors.

(Example) An embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, a mixture of gelatin, deodorant, and water is applied to both sides of a plate-like material 1 made of non-woven fabric and dried to form a coating film 2, and as shown in FIG. The shaped body 1 is rolled into a cylindrical shape and inserted into a synthetic resin bag 3, and the bag 3 is sealed. A ventilation hole 4 is provided above the bag 3, and a hanging string 5 is provided at the upper end of the bag 3. Note that during storage, a tape 6 is provided to close the ventilation hole 4, and when used, the tape 6 is peeled off to open the ventilation hole 4.

In the case of this embodiment, both side surfaces of the plate-shaped body 1 having the coating film 2 are in contact with each side surface, and the outer peripheral surface is closely covered with the outer periphery of the bag 3, so that the area in contact with air is small. Not easily vaporized. Moreover, since the nonwoven fabric is an aggregate of fibers, it has a large surface area and has a large holding power for the coating film 2. However, the upper end surface of the plate-shaped body 1 has a hollow part in the bag 3, and comes into contact with the air in this hollow part.
The deodorant is easily vaporized, and the vaporized deodorant is released to the outside of the bag 3 through the ventilation hole 4. Then, when the water and deodorant on the upper end surface of the plate-shaped body 1 evaporate, the water in the lower part moves along with the deodorant through the fibers to create a saturated state, and is successively vaporized. Therefore, the vapor pressure around the upper end surface is stabilized, and constant vaporization is always performed. As a result, the area around the bag 3 is deodorized.

In the above embodiment, the bag 3 is held by a hanging string 5, but instead of this, if an adhesive tape 7 with release paper is provided on the back side of the bag 3 as shown in FIG. 3, it can be peeled off during use. Peel off the paper and attach adhesive tape 7
The bag 3 can be supported by attaching it to an appropriate wall surface.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of this invention, in which a large number of plate-shaped bodies 1 provided with the coating film 2 described above are stacked together, vinyl sheets 8, 8 are stacked on the outside of these plates, and the vinyl sheets 8, 8 are stacked on top of each other. Fuse both ends of 8,
This is placed in a cylindrical container body 9 and covered with a lid 11 having a large number of ventilation holes 10. Note that a tape may be attached to cover these ventilation holes 10 during storage, and the tape may be peeled off when used.

In this embodiment, the operation is similar to the above,
After all the deodorant has evaporated, the plate can be replaced with a new one.

FIG. 5 shows still another embodiment of this invention,
The plate-like body 1 provided with the coating film 2 described above is folded several times and inserted into a container 13 having a ventilation hole 12.

In addition, as the deodorant of the above-mentioned example, for example, di-
Alkyl, amino, and aryl sulfonates are used as main components. Furthermore, the plate-like body made of fibrous material is not limited to non-woven fabric, but includes a wide variety of fabrics such as woven fabric and paper.

(Effects of the invention) This invention has the above-mentioned structure, and is made by adding a gelling agent such as gelatin or agar to a deodorant or an aromatic agent and water to form a gel, which is then made into a gel-like product. Because it is applied to the sides or both sides and placed in a sealed container with multiple layers stacked on top of each other, there are many areas on the sides that do not come into contact with air, and water and deodorants or fragrances do not evaporate in these areas. has been retained for a long time. In addition, the deodorant or aromatic agent evaporates along with water from the few points that are in contact with the air, and then the water and deodorant or aromatic agent are replenished through the fibers from other points in order. vaporization takes place stably.

As described above, in this invention, the deodorant or aromatic agent is stably vaporized over a long period of time, and has a long life as a deodorizing or aromatic device. Furthermore, the amount of vaporization can be easily adjusted by controlling the area that comes into contact with the air. Furthermore, the above-mentioned gel-like material containing granular porous material increases the adhesion of the deodorant or fragrance, allows the vaporization to be maintained for a long period of time, and furthermore, the deodorant or fragrance Even if it disappears, the adsorption power of these porous materials itself will absorb the surrounding odors,
It can maintain its deodorizing effect for a certain period of time.
