Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a tampon inserter, which has a simple cylindrical appearance and is extremely compact in appearance when set before use, and the required insertion stroke can be obtained during use. This is how it was done.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In FIG. 1, in FIG. 2, 1 has a large number of hinge lines 1a at equal intervals in the order of the inner and outer surfaces on the entire length of the circumferential surface in the longitudinal direction,
It is a flared outer cylinder that can be expanded outward and stowed inward.

As shown in FIG. 2, the cross-sectional shape of the outer cylinder 1 is made by aligning two squares of the same size with their center points coincident with each other.
The vertical angle lines are stacked one on top of the other, and when expanded outward, a cylinder with the required inner and outer diameters is inscribed and inserted into the inner part. Further, any flared outer cylinder may be used as long as it has a cross-sectional shape such that when contracted inward, the cylinder is inscribed and inserted into the outside of the outer cylinder.

Reference numeral 2 denotes an inner cylinder having a circular cross section, which is inscribed and inserted into the outer cylinder 1 when expanded outward as shown in FIG.
This inner tube 2 has the same length as the outer tube 1, and a tampon 3 is housed inside the inner tube 2.

Note that the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 2 are made of synthetic resin.

When using the tampon 3, the outer tube 1 is pulled out from the inner tube 2, and the pulled out outer tube 1 is contracted inward as shown in FIG. By inserting the thus contracted outer cylinder 1 into the inner cylinder 2 from one end of the inner cylinder 2 as shown in Fig. 3, and pushing the outer cylinder 1 in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 3, the outer cylinder 1 is removed. Tampon 3 in contact with the other end
can be pushed out from the other end opening of the inner cylinder 1.

As described above, the present invention has a flared outer cylinder that has a large number of hinge lines at equal intervals in the order of the inner and outer surfaces over the entire length of the circumferential surface in the longitudinal direction, and is capable of expanding outward and contracting inward. , an inner cylinder having the same length as the outer cylinder, which is inscribed and inserted into the outer cylinder when expanded;
The tampon is housed in this inner cylinder, so the appearance of the set before use is a simple cylinder and is extremely compact, so the overall size can be easily accommodated in the palm of a woman's hand. Since it can be used without any baggage, it is safe to use without worrying about it getting dirty even if you carry it around, and it is also convenient to carry as it can be stored in a band bag without taking up much space.

In addition, when using a tampon, simply pull out the outer tube from the inner tube, contract the pulled out outer tube inward, and insert it into the inner tube. The tampon can be pushed out of the inner tube without being used at all.
