Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an improvement of a storage container for solid detergent, etc. for kitchen use.

In general, this type of storage container is well known in which a protrusion is provided at a predetermined position on the outer surface of the bottom, and a suction cup made of a flexible resin material is removably fitted into the protrusion.

Incidentally, during the packaging work or transportation of the storage container, the above-mentioned operations are performed with the suction cup fitted into the protrusion or with the suction cup removed from the protrusion.

However, in the former method, the suction cup protrudes from the storage container, which becomes a nuisance and prevents smooth packaging or transportation, which is troublesome.

Furthermore, in the latter method, the suction cup is separated from the storage container, resulting in problems such as loss of the suction cup.

Furthermore, when the conventional storage container is installed, it is attached to an appropriate place on the sink using a suction cup, but since the suction cup is stuck to the sink by its suction force, when the storage container is removed, the In most cases, only the storage container comes off and the suction cup remains attached, making it time-consuming to remove it.

This invention is an improvement on the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional storage containers for solid kitchen detergents, etc. The structure of this invention will be explained below based on the embodiment shown in the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 to 5, reference numeral 1 denotes a storage container body for solid detergent for kitchen use made of a synthetic resin material, etc., and the upper edge of the opening peripheral edge 1a thereof is inclined rearward.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a suction cup storage recess integrally formed at a predetermined position on the bottom back surface of the container body 1, and a V-shaped locking groove 3 is provided in a part of the arcuate surface 2a.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a dovetail groove integrally formed on both side edges of the bottom back surface of the container body 1 from the center toward the vicinity of the storage recess 2, and 5 a dovetail groove formed at the open end of the upper edge of the dovetail groove 4. Stopper part 4
It is a suction cup made of a flexible resin material that is removably fitted into the suction cup a, and has a convex shape with its protrusion 5a corresponding to the dovetail groove 4.

Reference numeral 6 indicates a rib protruding from both lower sides of the bottom back surface of the container body 1, 7 indicates a solid detergent, and 8 indicates a sink.

Usually, when the suction cup 5 is molded, a burr 9 is left on a part of the arcuate outer surface 5b of the suction cup.

The present invention uses a suction cup 5 that is removed from the storage container body 1 during transportation.
When the suction cup 5 is stored in the storage recess 2, the burr 9 is fitted and locked in the locking groove 3 provided on the arcuate inner surface 2a, thereby preventing the suction cup 5 from falling out.

That is, during packaging work or transportation of the container body 1, the suction cup 5 can be reliably fitted and locked into the storage recess 2 of the container body 1.

Now, in order to attach the container body 1 containing the solid detergent 7 to the back guard of the sink 8, etc., first remove the suction cup 5 previously stored in the storage recess 2, and then remove it from the dovetail groove of the container body 1. The protrusion 5a of the suction cup 5 is fitted and locked into the opening at the tip of the suction cup 4.

At this time, since the diameter of the root of the protrusion 5a is made slightly larger than the width of the upper edge opening of the dovetail groove 4, the
When fitted, the diameter of the root of the protrusion 5a is reduced.

Then, the suction cup 5 is guided to the upper edge opening of the dovetail groove 4 as shown in the dashed line in FIG. into the locking hole 4a.

As a result, the root portion of the protruding portion 5a expands to its original size and holds the suction cup 5 in an immovable state.

After installing the suction cup 5 in the above-described manner, the storage container main body 1 can be attached by bringing the suction cup 5 into close contact with an arbitrary position of the sink 8.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, the container main body 1 is attached so that the upper edge of the opening periphery 1a is tilted rearward, making it convenient to wipe off the solid detergent 7, etc. The presence of the ribs 6 stabilizes the container body 1.

Although the present invention has shown that the locking groove 3 of the suction cup storage recess 2 is formed in a part of the arcuate surface 2a, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, as shown in FIG. A locking groove 3' may be formed all around the outer circumferential edge of the arcuate surface 2a of the suction cup storage recess 2, so that when the suction cup 5 is stored in the storage recess 2, a part of the outer surface 5a of the suction cup is removed. The projecting burr 9 can be fitted into any position of the locking groove 3' of the storage recess 2, thereby simplifying the effort during storage.

As explained above, this invention forms a suction cup storage recess at a predetermined position on the outer surface of the bottom of a solid detergent storage container body made of a synthetic resin material, etc. Since the dovetail groove is formed toward the vicinity, when the storage container body is packaged or transported, etc.
Since the suction cup can be fitted and locked in the storage recess, each of the above-mentioned operations can be performed smoothly, and problems such as losing the suction cup are eliminated, making it extremely convenient.

In addition, when installing the storage container body, the suction cup is fitted into the dovetail groove and locked, so that it fits tightly to any position such as the sink.
When removing the container main body, the suction cup can be removed while being fitted into the container main body, which simplifies handling and eliminates problems such as the suction cup falling off and falling off.
