As described above, according to the liquid impregnation device of the present invention, when the laminated tissue or the paper is supplied to the support member by the supply device, it is applied by the pressurizing device until it is discharged by the discharging device. Since the volume is reduced by pressing, then the liquid is jetted from the nozzle into the box and then pressurized, the tissue or paper in the box can be impregnated with the liquid very well.

Therefore, the container to be packed after impregnation can be downsized.

In particular, since pressure is applied after the liquid is jetted, the liquid accumulated on the bottom wall of the box can be infiltrated into the tissue or paper above.

Further, since the liquid is jetted into the box, it is possible to prevent the liquid from scattering.

Further, since the pressure is applied in the box, the laminated tissue and the paper do not collapse due to the pressure.
