Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Industrial Application Field" This invention relates to an assembly of finger cots used by loosely inserting a finger into the vagina when inserting a sanitary tampon into the vagina, etc., and a method for manufacturing the same. It is.

"Prior Art" As this type of finger cot, for example, the one shown in FIG. 5 is known. This is %2 resin films a and b
Shaped to resemble a finger, its tip C and 9 [1
1id and d are fused (heat-sealed), and a finger insertion opening e is formed in the 44th part.

By using this finger cot, when inserting a sanitary tampon into the vagina with a finger, it is possible to prevent the finger from becoming dirty, and conversely, it is possible to prevent the intestine from being contaminated by a dirty finger.

By the way, when using the above-mentioned tampon to insert a tampon into the vagina, the finger cot directly touches the female mucous membrane.

It must be sufficiently clean and hygienic. For this reason, finger cots are packaged to prevent dirt from getting dirty, but since it is expensive and impractical to package finger cots one by one, conventionally, a predetermined number of finger cots are bundled together. It is common to wrap each bundle individually.

In addition, the conventional manufacturing method for the above-mentioned finger cots is to pull out two greaseproof films from two take-up rolls, overlap them, and heat-seal the films to form a finger cot. At the same time, the formed fingerstall is cut away from the film. However, if the fingerstall is completely fused and separated from the film during this melt-cutting process, it will not be possible to send the fingerstall to the next process such as packaging. The film is sent to the next process along with the film without being completely separated.

Then, after sending it to the next process, the finger cots are removed from the film, and the predetermined number of finger cots are bundled or combined.
This aggregate was packaged as described above and shipped as a product.

"Problem to be Solved by the Invention" However, in the above-described aggregate of finger cots, when taking out the necessary finger cot from the aggregate, it is necessary to touch other finger cots that will not be used for the time being. At this time, there is a fear that the finger cot may become dirty, and furthermore, there is a concern that the dirty finger cot may be stored for a long period of time.

Furthermore, even in the above-mentioned manufacturing method, the process of peeling the finger cots from the film and bundling them must be done manually by a worker, which not only makes it impossible to automate the production process.

Hygiene problems arose, such as the tendency for dirt and grime to adhere to the ivy.

Furthermore, when the finger cots were removed from the film, large particles were left behind, making them unsuitable as products.

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a form of an aggregate of finger cots that can maintain good sanitary conditions without touching unnecessary finger cots when taking out the finger cots, and its results. It is an object of the present invention to provide a manufacturing method 1 for an assembly that can be manufactured hygienically and that can be automated.

"Means for Solving the Problems" The finger cot assembly of the present invention has a tip part and a 1g1J part bonded to each other by two resin films, and a finger insertion opening is formed at the base end. Each finger cot is made of a pair of finger cots that are releasably adhered to the surface of a mount with the tips of the finger cots facing each other.

It is desirable that at least one of the two films forming the above-mentioned finger stall has a large number of unevenness formed on the inner [4] sides of the finger stall; The force at which the finger is inserted into the film on the side to be applied to the mount ξ
It is desirable that the film extends further outward from the opening than other films, and that the extended portion is exposed to the outside.

Furthermore, on the above mount, cut out the finger cot along with the mount)
It is desirable to provide a perforation that allows the user to fold the paper, and it is further desirable that the mount is folded in a zigzag pattern along this perforation so that the finger cots are inward.

In addition, the manufacturing method of the present invention includes overlapping two thermoplastic 4R resin films on a mount, and fusing and cutting the overlapping two films along the tip and side portions of the finger cot shape. By doing so, a plurality of finger cots are formed whose proximal ends are formed by the side edges of the film, and
The finger cot is releasably adhered to the surface of the mount, and then the remaining parts of the two films on which the finger cot is formed are removed.

"Embodiments" Examples of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

First, the finger cot assembly of this embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a finger cot assembly in which five pairs, that is, ten finger cots 2 . . . are adhered to the upper surface of a mount 1. It is preferable that the mount 1 is made of material with a relatively smooth surface, such as high-quality paper or medium-quality paper. On this mount 1, on its longitudinal center line,
Perforations 3, 4 and 4 in the direction perpendicular to this center line, respectively.
... are inserted, and these perforations 3, 4...
The mount 1 is divided into a plurality of sections (10 sections in FIG. 1), and each section can be separated by the perforations 3, 4, etc., if necessary.

In each section by these perforations 3, 4...
The finger cots 2 . . . are adhered with their tips $ 2 a . . . directed toward the center of the mount 1.

As shown in FIG. 2, this finger cot 2 has a lower film 5 and an upper film 6 that follow the shape of a finger, and a tip 2aM of the finger cot 2.
The edges and the four parts 2b, 2b are adhered to each other, and a finger insertion opening 2C is formed at the base end thereof. The lower film 5 and upper film 6 of this finger cot 2 are made of thermoplastic resin, for example, olefin resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, nylon #Bft, polyester resin, etc. The film 5 and the upper film 6 are bonded together by heat sealing, as will be described later. The inner surface of the upper film 6 or the lower film 5 (inner side of the finger cot 2)
J) is formed with a large number of unevenness, that is, an embossed pattern, and the finger insertion opening 20 portion of the lower film 5 has a long extension outward from the opening.

A top surface 5a is formed whose surface is exposed to the outside.

As described above, the finger cots 2 configured as described above are attached to the mount 1 with the tip 832a facing the center of the mount 1, the periphery of the tip 2a, and the side portion 2b.

2b is attached with adhesive. The finger cots are attached to the mount 1 by being fused at the same time as the lower film 5 and the upper film 6 described above, and the finger cots 2 are relatively easier to peel off than the mount 1. This fingerstall union, which is configured as 0 or more, is possible, for example as shown in Figure 3! (It is preferable to fold it in half along perforations 3! and c so that the finger cots 2 are inward, and then fold it alternately in a zigzag pattern along perforation 4 before packaging.

Next, how to use this fingerstall assembly will be explained. First, it has a finger cot joint that is folded in half along the perforation 3 with the finger cot 2 facing inward, and has two compartments in which a pair of finger cots 2, 2 facing each other are glued together. Cut the backing paper along perforation 4. Then, while folding this cut-off mount in half, insert your thumb and index finger inside it, and place these fingers into the finger cot 2.
2, and then, while opening the mount, peel off the finger cots 2, 2 from the mount. As a result, the embossed pattern is formed on the necessary finger cots 2 without touching not only the unnecessary finger cots 2 but also the outer surface of the finger cots 2 to be used, so that the upper film 6 and the lower film 5 are Not only does it not stick to the finger cot, but it can also be used when removing the finger cot from your finger after use.

The finger does not stick to the finger due to sweat or the like, and the finger can be easily inserted and removed. In addition, since the lower film 5 is formed with an exposed portion 5a, the finger insertion opening 2
C can be opened easily, making it even easier to insert a finger.

The structure and method of use of the finger cot assembly have been explained above, and next, the method of manufacturing this finger cot assembly will be explained.
This will be explained with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which a finger cot assembly is manufactured by this manufacturing method, and in the figure, reference numeral 7 is an upper film, 8 is a lower film, and 9 is a mount. These upper film 7, lower film 8
Each mount 9 has a different width, the lower film 8 is slightly larger than the upper film 7, and the mount 9 is slightly larger than the lower film 8. Also,
An embossed pattern is formed on the lower surface of the upper film 7 (the surface in contact with the lower film 8) or the upper surface of the lower film 8 (the surface in contact with the upper film 7).

These upper film 7, lower film 8, and stand #v9 are each pulled out from the rolls, and the rollers 10°10.11.
11 and overlap each other in close contact with each other and 1
Transfer in the direction of the arrow shown. Then, the superposed upper film 7 and lower film 8 are fused together into a finger cot shape and cut by a Sugisho machine 12 having a finger cot shaped heated blade.
The finger cots 2... are formed, and at the same time, the formed finger cots 2... are adhered to the upper surface of the mount 9. At this time.

The finger insertion opening 2c of the finger cot 2 is formed by the side edges 7a and Ba of the upper film 7 and the lower film 8.

Next, the mount 9 (that is, the finger cot assembly) to which the finger cots 2... are adhered is separated from the excess film by rollers 13.13, and then wound onto the roll 14, while the excess film is rolled onto the roll 15. Let's wind it up. At this time, the tip part 2a and the side part 2 of the finger cot 2...
Since b and 2b are completely fused away from the upper film 7 and lower film 8, the excess film can be easily separated without leaving any residue.

Next, although illustration is omitted, the fingerstall assembly wound up on the roll 14 is pulled out again from the roll 14, and the mount 9 is
After making perforations 3 and 4 as shown in FIG. 1 by an appropriate means, the product is folded and packaged into the state shown in FIG. 3.

According to the above manufacturing method, since the work of fusing and cutting the finger cot 2 is automated, there is no need for one worker to touch the finger cot 2, and the sanitary condition of the finger cot 2 can be maintained in good condition.

Although the embodiments of the finger cot assembly and the manufacturing method thereof of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, the number of finger cots in the finger cot assembly may be arbitrary, and the shape of the finger cots may be in a sheet form as shown in Fig. 1 or in a folded state as shown in Fig. 3, or in a roll form. You can do it like this. It is also possible to use a seal head that is partially provided with a perforation blade as a seal head for fusing seals, and to make perforations at the same time as fusing seals.

Note that perforations are not necessarily provided. In addition, regarding the manufacturing method, the perforation process and folding process may be omitted, or if these processes are included, the finger cot assembly is immediately removed without being rolled up after separating the excess film. Of course, it would be fine if Aoko could guide you through those steps. 2. The mount can be printed.

Further, by temporarily fixing the mounts together after folding as shown in Figure 3, it is possible to prevent the folded item from opening and falling apart and preventing dust from getting in between until it is used. For example, the mounts can be temporarily fastened together using a temporary fastening method called double crimp, which is used to temporarily fasten multiple sheets of continuous forms. This can be done by carving out tongue-like punched pieces and temporarily fixing them by intertwining the tongue-like punched pieces with each other.

``Effects of the invention'' More details jj! j? As explained above, according to the finger cot assembly of the present invention, the finger cots are removably adhered to one mount, so when using this finger cot, the finger cots can be easily attached without touching the outer surface of the finger cots. It has the effect of being able to take out the finger cots in good condition and keeping the finger cots in good hygiene. In addition, at least one pair of finger cots was glued to the mount so that their tips faced each other, so fold the mount in half so that the finger cots were facing inward, and when in use, fold the mount in half from the shoulder of the mount, facing each other. If you cut two sections at once along the perforations and peel off the finger cot by holding the back of the backing paper, there is no risk of touching not only the unnecessary finger cot but also the outside surface of the finger cot you are using. It has the effect of further enhancing the hygienic effect. Roughly,
By forming unevenness on the inner surface of at least one side of the film forming the finger cot, the two films will not come into close contact with each other, and the finger can be easily inserted into the finger cot. Even in the rear -ζ position, the finger cot is difficult to adhere to the finger due to sweat, so it has the effect of being easy to remove. In addition, by making the command entrance part of the film on the side that contacts the mount of the finger cot extend longer to the outside of the opening, the finger cot can be easily peeled off from the mount, and it is also easier to insert the finger into the finger cot. have an effect.

Further, according to the manufacturing method of the present invention, two thermoplastic resin films are stacked on a mount, the two films are fused into a finger cot shape, fg is cut and adhered to the mount, and then the excess film is removed. By removing the finger cots, one task can be automated, the worker does not have to touch the finger cots, and the finger cots can be kept in good sanitary condition. This has the effect of preventing the occurrence of
