Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial application]

 The present invention relates to a tablet container.

[0002]

[Prior Art] [Problems to be solved by the device]

 BACKGROUND ART As a tablet container, one generally known is composed of a container body in which a mouth / neck portion is erected from a body portion, and a cap detachably fitted to the mouth / neck portion.

However, since the tablet has hardness, it is fragile. Therefore, if a space is formed in the container by using a part of the tablet, it is often inconvenient that the tablets collide with each other or the tablet and the peripheral wall of the container are damaged.

In view of the above situation, the present invention proposes a tablet container which can prevent damage to the contents as much as possible and is easy to handle.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the container of the present invention has a peripheral wall 2b erected from the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 2a, a flange 2f protruding outward from the outer peripheral lower end of the peripheral wall 2b, and a central portion of the upper surface of the bottom wall 2a. A container body 2 in which a locking cylinder 2c is erected and a space 2d between the cylinder 2c and the peripheral wall 2b is formed, and a peripheral wall 3a whose lower end is airtightly contacted with the upper surface of the flange 2f. The top wall 3b that closes the upper end surface opening is extended, and the threaded cylindrical portion 3c that is hung from the back surface of the top wall 3b is screwed onto the inner peripheral upper part of the container body peripheral wall 2b, and hangs from the center portion of the back surface of the top wall 3b. The cap 3 in which the inner periphery of the provided coupling cylinder 3e is fitted to the outer periphery of the locking cylinder 2c so as to be vertically movable and cannot be pulled out, and the upper end is fitted to the screw cylinder 3c and the engagement cylinder 3e. It is fixed and has a donut shape with the lower end hanging down to the lower end of the storage part 2d, and is an elasticity that presses and locks the tablet 5 stored in the storage part 2d. Consists wood 4 which, the cap 3 when raised threadedly, outlet 2e provided in the container body wall is composed as an opening.

[0006]

[Action]

 When the cap 3 is screwed up from the state of FIG. 1 until the protrusion 3d of the engaging cylinder 3e is locked by the protrusion 2h of the locking cylinder 2c, the outlet 2e opens as shown in FIG. At the same time, since the pressing lock of the tablet 5 by the elastic member 4 is released, the tablet 5 can be taken out from the taking-out port 2e. After use, if the cap 3 is screwed down, it returns to the original state. In this state, the tablet 5 is pressed and locked by the elastic member 4 and does not move, so there is no risk of damage.

[0007]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 denotes a tablet container. The container 1 comprises a container body 2, a cap 3 and an elastic member 4.

The container body 2 includes a disc-shaped bottom wall 2a, a peripheral wall 2d standing on the periphery of the bottom wall 2a, and a locking cylinder portion provided with a protrusion 2h on the upper end of the inner periphery of the upper surface of the bottom wall 2a. 2c is erected, and the space between the locking cylinder portion 2c and the peripheral wall 2b constitutes a tablet storage portion 2d. Further, a take-out port 2e having a size through which the tablet 5 can be inserted is formed at the lower end of the front part of the peripheral wall 2b, and a screw thread is provided around the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall above the take-out port 2e. Further, a flange 2f is provided so as to protrude outward from the outer peripheral lower end edge of the peripheral wall 2b, and concave portions 2g for preventing slippage are provided at predetermined intervals on the outer surface of the flange 2f.

The cap 3 has a cylindrical shape with an opening on the lower end surface in which the top wall 3b extends from the upper end edge of the peripheral wall 3a, and has a screw thread on the outer peripheral surface at a predetermined position inside the peripheral wall on the back surface of the top wall 3b. A tubular portion 3c is vertically provided, and an engaging tubular portion 3e is provided at a predetermined position in the central portion of the back surface of the top wall 3b so that an inner peripheral lower end portion is provided with a protrusion 3d. Further, a seal member 3g made of a soft material such as a soft synthetic resin having a sealing projection 3f protruding from the lower surface is fitted and fixed to the lower end of the peripheral wall 3a. Then, the outer circumference of the threaded tubular portion 3c is screwed onto the upper inner circumference of the container circumferential wall 2b, and the inner circumferential surface of the engaging tubular portion 3e is vertically movably fitted to the outer circumference of the locking tubular portion 2c. The lower end is brought into air-tight contact with the upper surface of the flange 2f so that the container body 2 can be vertically moved within a predetermined width. Further, when the cap 3 is screwed up to the highest position where the projection 3d of the engaging cylinder 3e is locked by the projection 2h of the locking cylinder 2c, the take-out port 2e is opened. There is.

In order to bring the lower end of the cap peripheral wall 3a into contact with the flange 2f of the container body 2 in an airtight manner, a sealing member 3g made of a soft material is used as in the present embodiment, and as shown in FIG. A ridge 2i may be provided on the upper surface of 2f, while a soft material layer 3h may be provided on the lower end surface of the cap peripheral wall 3a, or, as shown in FIG. 5, a thin ridge 3i may be formed on the inner surface of the lower end of the cap peripheral wall 3a. It is also possible that the inner surface of the ridge 3i is pressed against the outer surface of the peripheral wall 2b of the container body to seal it.

The elastic member 4 is formed of an elastic material such as sponge and has a donut shape having a rectangular cross section. Then, the upper end is fitted and fixed between the screw cylinder portion 3c and the engagement cylinder portion 3e of the cap 3, and the lower end portion is hung down to the lower end portion of the container body storage portion 2d. Then, the tablets 5 stored in the storage portion 2d are pressed and locked.

All the above-mentioned members are made of synthetic resin unless otherwise specified.

[0014]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, since the container of the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, the tablet is always pressed and locked by the elastic member when not in use, so that the tablets collide with each other when carrying the container and are damaged. Will not occur.

Further, even when taking out the tablet, it is convenient to handle because it can be performed by an extremely simple operation of screwing up the cap.
