Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is to store unused dry batteries in orderly size and store them at home, school, or in various business establishments, and to immediately store them in a desired size when they are needed. In addition to taking out the battery and using it, you can also temporarily store the used battery.
The present invention relates to a battery storage box that can respond to an emergency such as a power outage.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Dry batteries of various sizes are used for various electric appliances around us, so in a general household, a considerable amount of dry batteries of each size are consumed. The current situation.

In a general household or the like, when the dry battery being used is exhausted in the above dry battery consuming state,
A form is adopted in which a new dry battery is newly purchased or a so-called purchased dry battery is taken out from a storage place and used.

However, when a new battery is needed in an emergency or in the middle of the night, there is no spare battery of a size that can accommodate the new battery, or at this time, the business hours of the battery seller. If it is outside, the required dry battery cannot be obtained, which causes a problem.

In addition, if the place where the purchased dry battery is placed and the storage place are not constant at home, when the dry battery is needed, if the place where the dry battery is placed is forgotten, the same situation as described above occurs. Often becomes.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention collects dry batteries of various sizes at a time when they are inevitably consumed and replaced at home, and the dry batteries are stored at the same place at any time. It is an object of the present invention to provide a battery storage box in which a dry battery of a required size can be taken out and immediately dealt with even if it becomes necessary.

[0007]

The structure of the battery storage box of the present invention made for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems is such that the opening surface of the box-shaped container provided with an openable / closable lid is opened. Two or more kinds of dry batteries are arranged side by side so as to form an unused battery storage part that can be inserted and removed freely, and a lighting device storage part such as a flashlight or a candle is adjacent to the storage part. And a used battery storage portion for storing used batteries.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, an embodiment of the battery storage box of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an open state of an example of a battery storage box of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a closed state of the box of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a side sectional view of another example of the electric part storage box of the present invention. It is a figure.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a box body having an opening formed on substantially the entire front surface and having a taper-like side cross-sectional shape from the lower side to the upper side. To 2,
Two lids 5 formed and attached to a type that can be opened and closed in a state where the opening surface 2 is divided into an upper part and a lower part are provided for the used battery by extraction provided on the opening surface 2 near the bottom of the box body 1. It is a storage unit. The outer shape of the box body 1 is not limited to that shown in the figure, and may be any outer shape.

In the middle portion of the opening 2 of the box body 1, there is formed a battery accommodating portion 6 capable of accommodating unused unused dry batteries of different sizes individually and above the accommodating portion 6. On the lower side, second and third storage portions 7 and 8 for storing appropriate objects such as a flashlight, a candle, a match, and a writer are formed. Incidentally, 9 is a mounting table provided in the storage section 8.

Here, the unused battery accommodating portion 6 is a dry battery of each size that is often used in ordinary households, such as a single type, a size AA type, a size AA type, and a size AA type. In order to accommodate at least 2 pieces, preferably 4 pieces or more, for each size side by side, as an example, in the example of FIG. 1, three types of battery holders of each size-holes 6a, 6b, 6c are provided.
Is formed. The battery housing portion 6 of FIG.
Are for the single type, the single 2 type, and the single 3 type accommodating portions 6a,
6b and 6c are formed in rows from the bottom to the top, but the arrangement of the accommodating portions 6a to 6c or whether or not to provide a battery accommodating portion of a type other than the above can be arbitrarily set. .

Each battery holder-hole 6a to 6c is formed, for example, in a hole having a downward slope toward the rear of the hole, and a stopper (not shown in the figure) is provided at the rear end of the hole so that each size battery Is formed so as not to slip forward from the holes 6a to 6b due to its own weight, or, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the holes 6a to 6c are formed to have a downward slope toward the front side of the holes. With each hole 6a ~
A clip-shaped stopper 6s for holding each battery inserted in the hole and preventing the battery from slipping off may be provided at the bottom of 6c.

When the front end piece of the stopper 6s is pushed down, the stopper piece that locks the lower end portion of the front surface of the dry battery to prevent it from slipping down escapes further, so that the dry battery is inclined forward of the hole. It will slide out of the hole by itself due to its own weight, so you will have to grab it by hand and take it out. In FIG. 3, L is a flashlight stored in the storage unit 8, and Bu is a used dry battery stored in the extracted storage unit 5.

In the present invention, the front shape or the side sectional shape of the box body 1 may be a shape or a shape other than the shape of the illustrated example. In short, it suffices if the inside of the battery storage unit can accommodate at least two or more types of dry batteries of different sizes. In addition, a handle, a handle, or a hook hole for fixing to a wall may be provided in the upper portion of the box body 1 in a bracket-shaped portion (not shown).

Further, the battery storage box of the present invention prepares for an unexpected power outage due to various causes, in whole or in part of the outer surface of the box body 1, or the lids 3 and 4 of the storage portions 7 and 8 and the storage portion 5. A sheet-shaped or plate-shaped phosphorescent material or light-emitting material (not shown) is attached to all or a part of the front surface of the extraction of No. 1, so that the battery storage box of the present invention is present even in the dark. It is desirable to be able to see with a single eye. Also, the box 1 or the lid 3,
Alternatively, the container 4 or the container 5 may be formed of a synthetic resin material obtained by kneading a colorless or colored transparent synthetic resin material with a phosphorescent material, so that they themselves emit light at night.

[0016]

As described above, the present invention provides unused dry batteries of various sizes which are frequently used for various electric appliances in homes and offices and therefore require complicated battery replacement. When the batteries need to be replaced in the invention storage box so that they can be dealt with immediately when they need to be replaced, it is possible to suddenly change batteries or need new dry batteries. You can respond quickly.

Further, in the battery storage box of the present invention, a flashlight or a lighting device such as a candle is always accommodated in preparation for a sudden power failure, and a part or all of the box is a phosphorescent material or a luminescent material. Since the material emits light in the dark, even if a situation such as a sudden power failure occurs, the location of this box can be immediately known, and it is possible to immediately utilize the equipment useful for the power failure.

Furthermore, since the battery storage box of the present invention also has a storage unit for used batteries, it is possible to store the used batteries in one place, so that the used batteries can be temporarily stored all at once. It is also extremely convenient when disposing of them in bulk.
