Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention heats a wet tissue in order to remove the cold and cold discomfort given to sensitive persons such as infants and sick people when the wet tissue is used. A good wet tissue heating device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as a substitute for a cloth hand towel, a disposable type wet tissue has been widely used for hand towels, kitchens, toilet cleaning, wipes of infants and sick people. In addition, three types of bottle-type (cylindrical type), box-type (box-type) and vinyl bag-type are mainly used for such disposable type wet tissue containers.

In particular, when a wet tissue for wiping the butt of an infant or a sick person is used at a low temperature such as in winter, the temperature of the wet tissue is low, so that the infant or the sick person feels uncomfortable at the time of use. There were times when it happened.

As means for solving this problem, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-104990 and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-11207.
There is a device which heats a bottle-type wet tissue provided with a heater, which is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No.

[0005]

On the other hand, in the heating devices disclosed in both publications, although the wet tissue used is located at the center of the roll, the heating device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-104990 discloses a wet tissue roll. Both heating from the outer peripheral surface and heating from the bottom surface of the roll of the wet tissue in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-112071 are methods for heating the entire bottle type container, and heating and electric efficiency are low. Moreover, it could not be used to heat wet tissues contained in box type or plastic bag type containers.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems, and it is possible to heat a wet tissue housed in a box type or vinyl bag type container, and At that time, it is to provide a heating device for heating at least a part of the wet tissue to efficiently heat the used wet tissue.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a wet tissue accommodating member for accommodating stacked wet tissues and having a take-out opening for the wet tissue, and a take-out opening for the accommodating member. It is achieved by a heating device for a wet tissue, which is provided with a heating means for heating the wet tissue of the earliest take-out order among the laminated wet tissues in close contact with the surface.

[0008]

With the above structure of the present invention, it is possible to heat at least a part of the wet tissue contained in the box-type or vinyl bag-type container.

Further, by further providing a pressing means for pressing at least a part of the wet tissue contained in the box type or the vinyl bag type container toward the heating means, the wet tissue is pressed by the pressing force of the pressing means. By adopting a configuration in which heating is performed while being pressure-bonded to the heating means, it becomes possible to heat only the wet tissue in the vicinity of the uppermost stacked layer to be used next.

It is composed of a metal plate 104.

The wet tissue in this embodiment is not of a pop-up type so that when one is taken out, a part of the next one is easily taken out, but one such as a pocket tissue is taken out. It is of a type that is laminated by a known method so as to return to the original state. An opening communicating with the tissue outlet 32 is provided at the center of the heater plate 100 including the heater 4, the heat insulating material 10 and the metal plate 104.
A passage for taking out a wet tissue (not shown) housed in the main body A of the heating device is formed. Also, the lid 1

The signal from the temperature sensor 41 is input to the PWM control unit, and PWM control is performed by a well-known method so that the temperature is maintained at a substantially constant temperature. That is, when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 41 reaches a predetermined set value 1, the pulse width supplied to the heater 4 is narrowed. In this example, the duty is 50
%I have to. This reduces the average value of the electric power supplied to the heater 4. Further, when the temperature gradually drops to a preset value of 2, the heater 4
Widen the pulse width supplied to.

As described above, the heater 4 can be maintained at a substantially constant temperature by repeating the control such that the power supply is lowered when the temperature rises too much and the power supply is raised when the temperature falls too low. In this embodiment, this temperature control keeps the heater temperature at about 60 ° C. The heater temperature is not limited to about 60 ° C., but it is also possible to set a temperature at which the desired number of tissues themselves are kept at the body temperature or higher, preferably 40 ° C. to 50 ° C.

The tissue take-out port 32 provided at the central portion of the outer lid 1'can be opened and closed so that the wet tissue 13 stored in the storage box 2 can be taken out in an open state. A pivotally attached tissue removal palate 3 is provided.

A humidity sensor 46 for detecting the humidity of the wet tissue is provided inside the tissue take-out port to constantly detect the ambient humidity. In this example, the method of detecting the humidity of the atmosphere has been described, but a conductivity sensor that directly sandwiches a wet tissue and measures the conductive resistance thereof may be used. Further, a chemical solution replenishing means 40 is provided at the center of the tissue take-out lid 3. The chemical liquid replenishing means 40 comprises a chemical liquid reservoir 44 for filling the chemical liquid and a chemical liquid injection valve 43 for controlling the injection amount of the chemical liquid.

Current is supplied from the power plug 7 to the control circuit 42, and the fuse 6 is connected in series to a part of the power cord 11.
The control circuit 42 is composed of a power source section and a chemical solution control section, and a humidity sensor 46, a chemical solution injection valve 43 and heaters 4a and 4b are connected to the chemical solution control section. Although two heaters are used in this example, the number of heaters is not necessarily limited to two. The fuse 6 is provided between the power plug 7 and the heater 4 to prevent an overcurrent from flowing through the heater 4.

Further, the signal from the humidity sensor 46 is input to the chemical liquid control unit.

Two methods of controlling the chemical liquid injection valve by humidity have been exemplified. In [Example 1], when the humidity detected by the humidity sensor 46 drops to a predetermined set value 2, the chemical liquid injection valve 43
Open and start injecting the drug solution. Then, the humidity gradually rises, but when the humidity rises to a predetermined set value 1, the chemical liquid injection valve 43 is closed. Then
Infusion of the drug solution stops. By repeating this operation, a substantially constant humidity is maintained. In [Example 2], when the humidity detected by the humidity sensor 46 rises to a predetermined set value 1, the opening degree of the chemical liquid injection valve 43 is closed by a fixed amount. After a certain period of time, the humidity is detected again and it is determined whether or not the humidity has dropped to the set value 2. If the set value has not dropped to 2, the opening degree of the chemical liquid injection valve 43 is further closed by a fixed amount.
If the set value is lower than 2, the opening degree of the chemical liquid injection valve 43 is opened by a certain amount. In this way, the humidity is checked at regular intervals, and the opening of the chemical injection valve 43 is controlled accordingly, so that a substantially constant humidity can be maintained.
