Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a wet towel, and more particularly to improvement of a sanitary wet towel that can be stored for a long period of time.

[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices] Conventionally, towels have been formed by winding a wet towel soaked in water in a roll or by folding it into a stick and sealing the whole with a bag made of synthetic resin such as polypropylene film. The packaged structure is well known, and it is stored in a heating device or a cooling device and taken out when needed.

However, the conventional hand towels are not suitable for use unless they are used within a predetermined short period because the moisture contained in the towel gradually diffuses to the outside even if they are sealed with a synthetic resin bag. The period of use was limited.

Further, since the towel is preliminarily moistened with water, mold is likely to be generated, which may cause a problem in hygiene.

If the generation of mold is to be suppressed, it is necessary to add water mixed with a mold preventive agent to the towel, which causes a high cost.

The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and an object thereof is to provide a hygienic hand towel which can be used as a wet hand towel even if it is stored for a long period of time and is free from mold.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve such an object, the hand towel of the present invention is
The first bag body enclosing water, which is made to flow out by breaking the first bag body, is wrapped with a dry towel, and the whole wrapped towel is enclosed in a second bag body. The dry towel can be moistened with the water that has flowed out by breaking the first bag by the pressure from above the bag.

Then, it is advisable to evacuate the second bag.

[Action]

In the hand towel of the present invention equipped with such means, when the second bag body is hit or bent and pressure is applied to the first bag body to break the water, the enclosed water is contained in the second bag body 1. Drips out and gets wet with a dry towel.

Further, in the configuration in which the second bag body is deaerated, when the second bag body is hit or bent to break the first bag body, the water that has flowed out quickly permeates the dry towel.

〔Example〕

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 are a sectional view and a perspective view showing an embodiment of the hand towel according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, water 3 is enclosed in the first bag 1. As shown in FIG. 3, the first bag 1 is a sheet member obtained by laminating and stacking a high polymer polyethylene film and an aluminum film, for example, and has a polyethylene film inside and a gusseted bag, that is, a gusset fold. It has a slender, tubular bag shape.

On the outer periphery of the first bag body 1, there is a conventionally known towel 5 which has been dried, such as woven cotton or formed thickly of non-woven fabric or paper,
As shown in FIG. 2, the first bag 1 is wound in a roll shape.
One end portion, that is, one of the seal portions 7 projects from the towel 5. 2 is partially omitted.

The entire outer circumference of the towel 5 wound around the first bag body 1 is hermetically wrapped by the second bag body 9 as an outer bag.

As shown in FIG. 4, the second bag body 9 has a tubular bag-shaped opening made of a sheet material in which, for example, a nylon (trade name, the same applies hereinafter) film and a polyethylene film are laminated and integrated. It is formed by sealing and crimping.

One seal portion 7 of the first bag body 1 is sandwiched by the seal portion 11 of the second bag body 9, and the first bag body 1 is fixed to the second bag body 9.

In order to sandwich one seal portion 7 of the first bag body 1 with the seal portion 11 of the second bag body 9, the seal portion 7 of the first bag body 1 is sandwiched.
Can be easily manufactured by placing the in the open portion of the second bag 9 and crimping so as to sandwich it.

When the hand towel is structured as described above, when the second bag 9 is tapped or bent from above, the first bag 1 is broken and the water 3 therein flows out into the second bag 9. Wet towel 5.

Therefore, if the second towel 9 is broken and the wet towel 5 is taken out, for example, the hand can be wiped with the wet towel.

Moreover, since the towel of the present invention has a structure in which the first bag 1 in which the water 3 is enclosed is wrapped with the dry towel 5, the towel 5 is not wet at the beginning, and therefore does not dry during storage.
Since there is no water in the towel 5, mold is unlikely to occur and it is hygienic. Of course, no antifungal agent is required.

According to the experiments conducted by the present inventor, even if it was used after being stored for 1 to 1 and a half years, it could be used as a good wet towel, and no mold was found. It was dry and difficult to use.

Since the first bag body 1 for enclosing the water 3 is a multilayer sheet mainly composed of an aluminum film, it can prevent the water 3 from escaping almost completely as compared with the synthetic resin sheet. It does not contain water.

Moreover, if the seal portion 7 on one side of the first bag body 1 is sandwiched by the seal portion 11 of the second bag body 9 as shown in FIG. When the wet towel 5 is pulled out by breaking the side opposite to the sandwiching portion, that is, the fixing portion in 9, the first bag body 1 can be pulled out only while the first bag body 1 is held in the second bag body 9. Incidentally, FIG. 5 schematically shows.

However, if one end of the first bag body 1 protruding from the towel 5 is sandwiched between the seal portions 11 of the second bag body 9, the same effect can be obtained without sandwiching the seal portion 7.

Further, in the hand towel according to the present invention, if the air in the second bag 9 is evacuated, deaerated and sealed, the water 3 flowing out of the first bag 1 quickly and entirely spreads over the towel 5. And first
The bag body 1 can be easily torn.

In this respect, if degassing is not performed, the speed and part of the permeation may vary due to the presence of voids. In addition,
In the drawings, it is shown in a state without deaeration for convenience.

In the hand towel of the present invention, the shape of the first bag body 1 and the second bag body 9 is not limited to the stick shape, but may be any shape such as a square shape or a plate shape. It is not limited to the roll shape, and it may be wrapped so that it can be unwound.

In addition to water, ethyl alcohol, fragrance, or the like can be placed in the first bag 1.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the hand towel according to the present invention.

That is, the dry towel 5 in the second bag body 9 is used together with the first bag body 13 having the above-described configuration and the third bag body 15.
It is configured by wrapping in a roll shape.

The third bag 15 contains a water bag 19 in which water 17 is enclosed, and a temperature changing agent 21 that dissolves in the water in the water bag 19 and causes a temperature change. Water is used as the temperature changing agent 21. Granular anhydrous calcium chloride that dissolves in water to generate water-soluble heat, or a cryogen that dissolves in water and has an endothermic action such as ammonium nitrate or urea is enclosed.

The third bag body 15 is a multi-layered thin sheet member obtained by laminating a nylon film, a polyester film, an aluminum film, and a polyethylene film, for example, with a polyethylene film inside, and has a gusseted bag shape as shown in FIG. It is in the shape of an elongated tubular bag folded by a gusset, and both openings in the longitudinal direction are sealed by heat sealing or ultrasonic processing.

The water bag 19 is made by stacking two sheets of high polymer polyethylene film and an aluminum film laminated together with the polyethylene film inside and heat-sealing or ultrasonically processing the periphery, and water 3
It is in the form of a small bag that encloses
Is located at the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the.

When the hand towel is structured as described above, when it is tapped or bent by hand, the first bag 13 is broken and the water 3 inside flows out into the second bag 13 to wet the towel 5, while the third bag is wet. The water bag 19 inside the body 15 is broken, and the water 17 inside flows out into the third bag body 15 to dissolve the anhydrous calcium chloride and the cryogen.

Therefore, in the structure in which the anhydrous calcium chloride is enclosed, heat is generated when the anhydrous calcium chloride is melted, the water contained in the towel 5 is heated, and it can be used as a hot towel.

Further, in the structure in which the cryogen is enclosed, the towel 5 is cooled by the endothermic action when the cryogen is melted, and the towel 5 is used as a cold towel.

Even in the hand towel having such a configuration, if the inside of the second bag body 9 is deaerated, the water 3 in the first bag body 1 quickly permeates the towel 5.

In the configuration shown in FIG. 6, the towel 5 is soaked with water and heated or cooled, but the speed at which the water permeates the entire towel 5 and the speed at which the temperature outside the towel 5 rises or is cooled Was slightly faster than others.

In the hot towel according to the present invention, the first bag body 13 and the third bag body 15 are preferably made of a material that can withstand the heat generation of anhydrous calcium chloride, and the towel 5 can be wrapped in any manner.

If desired, a heat retaining agent or a cold storage agent may be mixed with anhydrous calcium chloride or a freezing agent to enhance the heat retaining effect.

[Effect of device]

As described above, the hand towel according to the present invention is the first bag body in which water is enclosed, and the first bag body that allows the water to flow out by breaking the first bag body is the second bag. Since the dry towel can be moistened with water that has been sealed in the bag and smashed the first bag from above the second bag, the water does not spill even if stored for a long time. It is difficult, and if the first bag is broken from above the second bag, it can be used as a wet towel at any time, and the usage period is extended.

In addition, since the towel does not contain water, mold is unlikely to be generated and it is hygienic, and a cost preventive agent is suppressed because a mold preventive agent is unnecessary.

In the configuration in which the second bag is deaerated, when the first bag is broken, the water that has flowed out quickly permeates the dry towel, and the dry towel can be quickly wet.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The hand towel according to the present invention can be widely used as a cleaning tool such as a playground, a drive, and a hand towel for visitors.
