Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a tampon insertion device that is easy to handle, aesthetically pleasing, hygienic, and can be pushed out smoothly.

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

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes an outer cylinder that has grooves 1a along the entire length of its circumferential surface in the longitudinal direction and can be rolled in so that the outer diameter becomes thinner. A short guide tube 2a is provided at the center of the outer side of one end surface, and a short guide tube 2a communicating with the inside is provided, and the other end is provided with a plurality of hemispherical closing pieces 2b having elasticity and flexibility that can expand outward like bud-like petals. An inner cylinder 2 having a circular cross section is fitted into the inner cylinder 2.

The length of this inner tube 2 is equal to the length of the outer tube 1.

A tampon 3 is housed in the inner tube 2 between the inner side of one end surface and the closing piece 2b.

Note that when the inner cylinder 2 is inserted into the outer cylinder 1, the outer cylinder 1
It is preferable that the inner diameter is set to a required value so that the inner cylinder 2 is slightly expanded outwardly, and that the inner cylinder 2 is held as tightly as possible.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer cylinder 1 has a split groove extending from the apex of the arcuate wall surface 1b at one end to the entire length in the longitudinal direction of the circumferential surface.
A may be provided so that it can be rolled up so that the outer diameter becomes thinner.

Further, the outer cylinder 1 has the required elasticity and flexibility, and the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 2 are made of synthetic resin.

Therefore, when using the tampon 3, the outer cylinder 1 is pulled out from the inner cylinder 2, and the outer cylinder 1 that has been pulled out is rolled in through the groove 1a to make the outer diameter thinner. Insert the other end of the outer cylinder 1 with a reduced diameter into the inner cylinder 2 from the guide short cylinder 2a, which is one end of the inner cylinder 2, as shown in Fig. 4, and push the outer cylinder 1 in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 4. As a result, the tampon 3 pushes open the closing piece 2b of the inner cylinder 2 with the other end face, and is pushed out from the opening.

As described above, according to the present invention, the outer cylinder 1 can be
When the tampon 3 inside the inner cylinder 2 is pushed out by rolling it in from point a and making the outer diameter thinner, it is inserted into the inner cylinder 2 from the short guide tube 2a which is one end of the inner cylinder 2, and when pushing out the tampon 3 inside the inner cylinder 2, the outer diameter is made thinner. Since the circumferential surface of the other end of the outer cylinder 1 can be brought into contact with the center of one end surface of the tampon 3, the tampon 3 can be pushed out smoothly.

Moreover, in the state before use, the other end of the inner tube 2 is closed by a plurality of elastic and flexible closing pieces 2b that are hemispherical and can expand outward like flower buds. This allows the other end surface of the tampon 3 to be covered, making it easier to handle.
It looks good and is hygienic.
