Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an air freshener container which is mainly installed in an automobile and can diffuse the fragrance in the container body only when necessary.

A variety of air freshener containers have been devised for use inside cars or indoors, but most of them have a mechanism that constantly releases air freshener.
Due to the continuous emission of air fresheners, if the ventilation inside the car is insufficient, the concentration of air fresheners in the car interior will exceed the specified amount, which will not only cause discomfort to the passengers, but also in extreme cases. There was a problem that it caused health problems by causing nausea.

Another drawback is that the air freshener continues to emit air even when there is no need to emit a fragrance, such as when the car is left in a parking lot overnight or when the car is not used for a certain period of time, so the air freshener is wasted and is uneconomical. there were.

Furthermore, since the fragrance is consumed at a high rate, it is necessary to store a large amount of the fragrance, resulting in a bulky fragrance container, which is inconvenient for use in a narrow car interior.

Therefore, the present invention is intended to solve such drawbacks of the prior art, and its purpose is to make it possible for the air freshener in the container body to be released into the interior of a car only when necessary, so that it can be used by passengers. The purpose is to maintain a refreshing feeling and health.

Another purpose is to prevent wasteful consumption of fragrance by allowing the fragrance in the container body to emit the appropriate amount at a time when needed, thereby achieving economical use of fragrance and extending its lifespan. be.

Still another object is to make the overall shape of the fragrance container compact so that the fragrance container can be freely installed at any location.

The gist of the present invention having the above-mentioned purpose is to provide an air freshener container in which a lid having symmetrically arranged openings and a container body with a built-in impregnation body are removably fitted together. The air freshener container is characterized in that a slide cap for opening and closing both openings is slidably attached to the opening.

The present invention will be explained below based on the illustrated embodiments.
11, reference numeral 1 designates the whole fragrance container according to the present invention, and this fragrance container 1 has a lid body 2 and a container main body 3, each of which is removably fitted into a lid body 2 having openings arranged vertically symmetrically. It is formed by

More specifically, the lid body 2 is surrounded by a top surface portion 4 and an annular peripheral surface portion 5 that is vertically disposed from the periphery of the top surface portion 4, and extends radially outward from the top surface portion 4 to the peripheral surface portion 5 of the lid body. After that, a concave groove 6 of an arbitrary width is provided which is bent and extended in the vertical direction.

The groove 6 is provided with an arbitrary number of ventilation lowers extending in the extension direction at predetermined intervals, with the groove bottom being penetrated.
An opening in the lid body 2 is formed by each ventilation lower.

The groove 6 is also provided with a series of partitions 8 extending across the ventilation lower.

Furthermore, the lid 2 is provided with an annular locking protrusion 9 on the inner periphery of the tip of the peripheral surface 5 for removably engaging the lid 2 with the container body 3.

The container body 3 has approximately the same shape as the lid body 2 and has a U-shaped cross section, and includes a waist bottom part 10 and an annular peripheral part 11 standing upright from the periphery of the bottom part 10.
The internal space is designated as storage chamber 1 for the impregnated body described below.
2, and an arbitrary number of supporting pieces 13 are provided protruding from the inner surface of the bottom part 10 near the periphery of the storage chamber 12 for raising the bottom of the impregnated body.

Further, from the bottom surface portion 10 to the peripheral surface portion 11 of the container body, a concave groove 14 of an arbitrary width is provided which extends radially outward and then bends and extends vertically.

The concave groove 14 is provided with an arbitrary number of ventilation holes 15 extending in the extension direction at predetermined intervals in a manner that penetrates the groove bottom, and each ventilation hole 15 forms an opening in the container body 3. be done.

The groove 14 also includes a series of partitions 16 extending across the ventilation opening 15.

Furthermore, the circumferential surface part 11 of the container body has a step part 17 at the upper end that supports the lower end of the circumferential surface part 5 of the lid body, and the outer periphery of the stepped part 17 can be freely attached to and detached from the locking protrusion 9 on the inner circumference of the circumferential surface part 5 of the lid body. A locking protrusion 18 is provided which is engaged with.

Thus, the lid body 2 and the container body 3 are removably fitted together,
The ventilation lowers 15 in each recess 1f16, 14 forming these openings are arranged vertically symmetrically.

Reference numeral 19 denotes an opening of the lid 2 and the container body 3, that is, a ventilation lower; a sliding cap made of synthetic resin that opens and closes 15 is formed by bending a band-like member into a U-shape in cross section; 6°14.

The slide cap 19 has a cylindrical locking protrusion 20 inserted into the central ventilation lower 15 formed in the groove on the inside of the tip that contacts the groove 6° 14 of the lid and the container body. 21, and as the slide cap 19 slides in the radial direction, each of the protrusions 20.21 comes into contact with the partitions 8, 16 of the groove, and the slide cap 19 is removed from the respective grooves R6, 14. Preventing them from leaving.

22 is the storage chamber 1 of the container body which is pre-impregnated with an aromatic solution.
This is an impregnated body installed in 2, which is made of a porous material with good permeability such as a fiber material or a corpus cavernosum that absorbs and releases liquid.

Further, the impregnated body 22 has an arbitrary thickness and can be formed on the peripheral surface 5 of the container body.
It is held in the storage chamber 12 with the bottom raised by the supporting piece 13 of the container body.

Reference numeral 23 denotes a fixing member such as an adhesive tape or a magnet having a predetermined thickness, and is attached to an arbitrary location on the bottom surface 10 of the container body.

The fixing member 23 removably holds the air freshener container in a desired installation location, and at the same time holds the container body 3 in a state where the bottom is raised relative to the mounting surface S, so that the bottom surface 10 of the container body and the mounting surface A gap 24 through which air can flow is formed between the gap 24 and S.

In the above configuration, after installing the impregnated body 22 impregnated with an aromatic solution in advance in the storage chamber 12, the lid 2 and the container body 3 are fitted, and then the concave groove 6 of the lid and the container body is fitted. , 14, the opening of the lid and the container body, that is, the ventilation lower 15, is closed by the slide cap 19, and the opening of the fragrance container 1 is completely sealed.

When it is necessary to emit a fragrance into the interior of a car, etc., by sliding the slide cap 19 to open the opening of the air freshener container 1, the air freshener components that have vaporized and filled the air freshener container 1 will be vented. Roa.

15 into the atmosphere, and a fragrant scent wafts inside the car where the air freshener container is installed.

The amount of diffusion of the fragrance component is controlled by adjusting the opening width of the fragrance container 1 using the slide cap 19.

Note that when the air freshener container 1 is mounted with the bottom raised relative to the mounting surface S using the fixing member 23, the air freshener component also emanates from the bottom opening of the air freshener container. 1, the amount and speed of diffusion of the fragrance component increases compared to the case where the bottoms of the parts are attached in close contact with each other.

When the interior of the car becomes sufficiently comfortable with the fragrance, the slide cap 19 is slid to close and reseal the opening of the fragrance container, thereby stopping the diffusion of the fragrance component.

After that, after a certain period of time has passed and the air freshener components inside the car have been diluted and disappeared, the slide cap 19 is slid again to open the opening of the air freshener container, releasing a new fragrance into the car interior that will be needed in the future. By repeating similar operations depending on the situation, the desired interior environment of the vehicle can be obtained.

Note that when the fragrance solution with which the impregnated body 22 is impregnated has finished evaporating, the slide cap 19 is removed from the fragrance container 1.
After separating the lid body 2 from the container body 3, the impregnated body 22 is refilled with new fragrance solution, or replaced with another impregnated body 22 sufficiently impregnated with the fragrance solution. , it can be used continuously by reassembling the fragrance container.

Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, and this second embodiment will be described by assigning the same reference numerals to the same constituent parts as in the first embodiment. In this embodiment, a fixing member 23 having a predetermined thickness is attached to the bottom of the slide cap 19 to form a gap 24 between the bottom 10 of the container body and the mounting surface S through which air can circulate.

The opening/closing operation of the fragrance container 1 is performed by sliding the fragrance container in a certain direction.

The present invention has the above-described structure and operation, and since the opening of the fragrance container can be opened and closed using the slide cap, the fragrance can be released into the interior of an automobile only when necessary.

Therefore, there is no fear that the concentration of the air freshener in the car will increase more than necessary, and this has the effect of maintaining the refreshment and health of the passengers.

In addition, since the fragrance is released outside the container only when the slide cap is slid to open the opening of the fragrance container, wasteful consumption of the fragrance solution can be prevented at other times. This has the effect of making it possible to use it economically and extend its lifespan.

Furthermore, by installing an impregnated body pre-impregnated with a certain amount of fragrance solution inside the fragrance container, the container for storing the fragrance solution can be separated, and the fragrance container can be made more compact. Therefore, it can be installed in a narrow space such as inside a car, and the space inside the car can be used effectively.

Furthermore, since the impregnated body is held in the fragrance container with the bottom raised, the fragrance solution can be evaporated and vaporized from the back side of the impregnated body, and the fragrance can be used efficiently by expanding the evaporation area. There is also the effect that it can be done.

In addition, since a fixing member such as adhesive tape is provided on the container body or slide cap, not only can the air freshener container be quickly fixed in an appropriate location, but the installation location can be easily changed and various effects can be achieved. It is something that you have.

In the above description, an example has been described in which an opening for the fragrance component to flow is provided at the top and bottom of the fragrance container, and the opening is opened and closed by a slide cap having a U-shaped cross section. The present invention is not limited to this, but an opening may be formed in the peripheral surface of the fragrance container, and this opening may be opened and closed using a slide cap of any shape.
