Description

Article dispensing container having a lid

The present disclosure relates to a dispensing container having a lid and suitable for storing and dispensing articles such as tissue paper.

A dispensing container capable of storing tissue paper in a laminated state and taking out one by one the tissue paper is well known in the prior art. Also, there is known a dispensing container in which a lid is attached so as to be capable of reciprocating pivotal movement with respect to a container portion having an opening for taking out the stored tissue paper, and the opening can be opened and closed using the lid. is there.

For example, one example of the openable / closable container described in Japanese Patent No. 5349915 (Patent Document 1) is a wet tissue dispensing container, which has a main body having an outlet, a lid for opening and closing the outlet, and a direction for opening the lid. And an elastic member for urging the same. The lid has a spring body on the proximal side, and the main body has a slope portion with which the spring body abuts when the lid is opened. When the lid is moved in the opening direction, the spring body slides on the slope portion, and the opening speed of the lid is suppressed. The rear portion of the lid is formed with a cover extending generally perpendicularly from the top surface towards the body. The cover makes the gap between the lid and the main body small when the lid is closed, and has a good appearance on the back side of the container.

Patent No. 5349915 gazette

In the openable and closable container, horizontal shafts formed on both sides of the substantially vertically extending cover are inserted into the holes formed in the main body, and the lid rotates about the shafts. Open the outlet. The cover formed on the lid is made on the back side of the container so that the width of the clearance (clearance) formed between the main body and the lid does not become too large. However, when the lid rotates in the direction to open around the shaft, the lower end of the cover also rotates around the shaft, and when the lid is closed, there is a gap between the lid and the main body on the back side of the container. Even in a small relationship, when the lid is open, the gap may be large, and the appearance of the back of the container may be impaired.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved dispensing container so that the appearance on the back side can be kept in a good condition even when the lid is closed or opened.

According to the present invention, there is provided a container portion having a vertical direction, a lateral direction, and a longitudinal direction intersecting each other and having an outlet for an article to be stored formed on a top surface portion, and the container portion pivotally attached to the container portion. It is a dispensing container which has a lid part which opens and closes an outlet.

In the dispensing container according to the present invention, the lid portion when the outlet is in a closed state has a laterally extending rearward peripheral portion formed at the rear portion of the container portion to cover the outlet. A covering portion and an arm extending downward and rearward from the covering portion, the arm extending to the inside of a rear peripheral wall forming the rear portion of the container portion; A pivot axis extends from the tip of the arm extending inward to the both sides in the lateral direction, and the pivot axis is located below the rear peripheral edge of the covering section and is a proximal end connected to the arm The tip end, which is the opposite end of the head, rotatably enters the bearing portion of the container portion.

In the dispensing container according to one or more embodiments of the present invention, there is a pivot at the tip of the arm extending downward and backward from the cover in the lid, and the pivot is below the rear peripheral edge of the cover It is located in Even if the rear peripheral edge of the lid is made to approach the rear peripheral wall of the container so that the clearance (clearance) between the container and the lid becomes smaller when the container is viewed from the rear, At the time of opening, the rear peripheral portion approaches the rear peripheral wall portion of the container portion while pivoting above the pivot shaft. Therefore, even if the lid is opened, the gap between the lid and the container does not increase on the back side of the dispensing container, and the appearance of the container is not impaired.

The drawings illustrate specific embodiments of the present invention and include not only the essential features of the invention, but also optional and preferred embodiments.

The embodiments in the following include the indispensable requirements of the present invention, as well as the selectively adoptable requirements and the requirements which can be appropriately combined.

A dispensing container 10 shown in a perspective view in FIG. 1 is suitable for storing and dispensing tissue paper 9 such as a wet tissue, and has a container portion 11 and a lid portion 12. In the container portion 11, the top surface portion 14 and the peripheral wall portion 16 are integrally formed, and the bottom lid 13 can be attached to and detached from the peripheral wall portion 16 from below. In addition, by removing the bottom cover 13, the after-mentioned package 8 of the tissue paper 9 can be stored. The peripheral wall portion 16 has a front peripheral wall portion 16a, a pair of side peripheral wall portions 16b, and a rear peripheral wall portion 16c (see FIG. 1). Double-headed arrows A, B, and C in the figure indicate the vertical direction, the lateral direction, and the longitudinal direction of the dispensing container 10.

In FIG. 1, a gap (clearance) 101 formed between the container portion 11 and the lid portion 12 is shown by a partially enlarged view surrounded by a virtual line 100. The container portion 11 has an inner contour line 15a and an outer contour line 15b in the fitting recess 15 described later, and a portion 15c sandwiched between the both

contour lines

15a and 15b is a portion outside the outer contour line 15b. It is formed to be lower than that. The lid 12 has a front peripheral portion 36 a. A gap 101 is formed between the front peripheral portion 36a and the inner contour 15a. The gap 101 has a substantially constant width F when the dispensing container 10 is viewed from above, and the impression that the lid 12 is fitted in the later-described fitting recess 15 of the container 11 is obtained It can be given to the user of the container 10. The width F of the gap 101 is preferably selected from the range of 0.5-1.5 mm.

FIG. 2 is a rear view of the dispensing container 10. In FIG. 2, the rear peripheral wall portion 16 c of the container portion 11 and the rear portion 35 of the lid portion 12 are visible. In the rear peripheral wall portion 16c, the inner contour 15a and the outer contour 15b of the fitting recess 15 are visible. In the rear portion 35 of the lid 12, a rear peripheral edge 36b extending horizontally in the lateral direction B and a front peripheral edge 36a extending in an arc in the vertical direction A can be seen. At a central portion in the lateral direction B of the lid portion 12, a part of a hinge portion 40 described later is visible. The lid portion 12 shown by a phantom line is in the open state, and the rear peripheral portion 36 b overlaps the rear peripheral portion 16 c of the container portion 11.

A portion surrounded by a virtual line 200 in FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged view of the container 11 and the lid 12. A gap 101 is formed between the inner contour 15 a of the container 11 and the rear peripheral edge 36 b and the front peripheral edge 36 a of the lid 12.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III in FIG. 1, and the package 8 and the tissue paper 9 which are accommodated in the dispensing container 10 are shown by phantom lines. The III-III line is at a position which bisects the dimension in the front-rear direction C in the bottom lid 13 of the dispensing container 10. The top surface portion 14 of the container portion 11 has a fitting recess 15 for fitting the lid 12 in the central portion in the lateral direction B. The fitting recess 15 is formed of a flexible elastic material such as silicone rubber or a thermoplastic elastomer, and the partition plate 17 whose desired portion is easily elastically deformed, and the upper portion sandwiching the partition plate 17 from the up and down direction A 18 and lower portion 19.

The partition plate 17 is formed with an outlet 21 for taking out the tissue paper 9, and on both sides in the lateral direction B, the rising portions 22 extend upward. For the outlet 21, an appropriate shape such as a circle, an oval, or a star can be selected. The outlet 21 in the illustrated example is circular. The upright portion 22 is formed in an annular shape so as to surround the outlet 21. The partition plate 17 also has a flat plate-like portion 23 having a uniform thickness between the outlet 21 and the rising portion 22.

The upper portion 18 in the fitting recess 15 is separate from the lower portion 19 and can be formed of a material different from the material forming the lower portion 19, but forms the lower portion 19 It can be formed using the same material as the material, for example, a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin. The upper portion 18 can also be molded to be integral with the partition plate 17 using a two-color molding technique which is one of the injection molding techniques. The upper portion 18 is formed with an upper opening 24 larger than the outlet 21. The upper portion 18 is also formed with a peripheral edge portion 27 that contacts the proximal end portion 26 of the rising portion 22 in the lateral direction B. The peripheral portions 27 are connected via connecting portions 27 a which are located on both sides of the rising portion 22 and penetrate the rising portion 22. The connecting portion 27 a is a portion used as a flow path of a molding material for forming the peripheral portion 27 on both sides of the standing portion 22 when performing two-color molding, but the connecting portion in the fitting recess 15 27a acts to unify the divider plate 17 and the upper portion 18 so as not to separate them. A plurality of connecting portions 27a can be provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the rising portion 22 (see FIG. 3).

The lower portion 19 in the fitting recess 15 is a portion that can be injection molded simultaneously with the peripheral wall portion 16 etc. of the container portion 11 and is made of a material harder than the material forming the partition plate 17, eg polypropylene It is formed of a thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polyethylene. The lower portion 19 and the lower surface 17 b of the partition plate 17 are in close contact with each other around the outlet 21 by adhesion, welding, mechanical connection or the like. Further, in a more preferable container portion, at least the partition plate 17 and the lower portion 19 are in close contact so that the entire periphery of the outlet 21 is airtight. The lower portion 19 is also provided with a lower opening 25 larger than the outlet 21 so that the upper opening 24, the outlet 21 and the lower opening 25 can easily take out the tissue paper 9 one by one. It has been aligned. The upper opening 24, the outlet 21 and the lower opening 25 can also be appropriately combined in size and shape so as to facilitate removal of the tissue paper 9. The fact that the tissue paper 9 is easy to remove includes the meaning that it is easy to separate and take out the tissue paper 9 one by one.

The lid 12 is formed of the same hard material as the upper portion 18 and / or the lower portion 19 in the fitting recess 15, for example, a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin, and is fitted inside the fitting recess 15 so as to be openable and closable. doing. The lid 12 has an outer surface 28 which forms part of the outer surface of the dispensing container 10 when in the closed state, and an inner surface 29 facing the outlet 21. The inner surface portion 29 is formed with a drooping portion 30 that extends in a straight shape toward the fitting recess 15 and that abuts on the inclined portion 31 of the top portion 32 of the rising portion 22. The hanging portion 30 is annularly formed so as to surround the top 32. The inclined portion 31 at the top 32 is inclined so as to be an upward slope from the outside to the inside of the rising portion 22. The top portion 32 is also formed to be gradually thinner in thickness from the bottom to the top in the inclined portion 31 and is easily elastically deformed radially inward when the hanging portion 30 abuts . With the elastic deformation, the height of the rising portion 22 may be slightly reduced in the vertical direction A. The rising portion 22 and the hanging portion 30 which are in contact with each other in this manner integrally form a peripheral wall portion 72 surrounding the outlet 21. Inside the peripheral wall portion 72, the inner surface portion 29 of the lid portion 12 forms a ceiling portion 73 facing the outlet 21. An air-tight space 74 is formed above the outlet 21 by the peripheral wall portion 72 and the ceiling portion 73, so that it is possible to prevent the tissue paper 9 in a wet state from being dried. In such a dispensing container 10, the fitting recess 15 and the lid 12 of the container 11 form a lid opening / closing structure.

In the lid opening / closing structure, the lid 12 is supported rotatably in the clockwise direction and the counterclockwise direction in the container portion 11, and is engaged with the fitting recess 15 in a detachable manner. When the lid 12 is fitted in the fitting recess 15, the hanging portion 30 in the lid 12 and the rising portion 22 in the fitting recess 15 are in close contact with each other in the vertical direction A to form the peripheral wall 72. One of the hanging portion 30 and the rising portion 22, for example, the rising portion 22 is formed of a soft elastic material, and elastically deforms in the radial direction of the peripheral wall portion 72.

In the present invention, when referring to a hard material, in the dispensing container 10, a portion which does not deform when it abuts on the flexible elastic material forming any part of the dispensing container 10 is formed. Is meant to be a material that Moreover, that a part is formed of a soft and elastic material means that the part is formed of a material that is easily elastically deformed when a part formed of a hard material abuts. doing.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV of FIG. 1, and the lid 12 in a state of turning clockwise as shown by the arrow E is shown by an imaginary line. The IV-IV line is at a position which bisects the dimension in the lateral direction B in the bottom lid 13 of the dispensing container 10. In the right side of the figure, the lid 12 rotatably enters a bearing 37 (see FIG. 7) in which a pivot shaft 36 (see FIGS. 6 and 7) formed thereon is formed in the fitting recess 15 By moving back and forth in the clockwise direction E and the counterclockwise direction, the outlet 21 for taking out the tissue paper 9 can be opened and closed. The pivot 36 and the bearing 37 form the hinge of the dispensing container 10. In the dispensing container 10, a spring member 40 is interposed between the lower portion 19 of the fitting recess 15 and the lid 12 in a stored state, and the lid 12 is opened in the direction in which it is opened, that is, clockwise. It is biased to. The spring member 40 in the illustrated example is an elastic strip formed of synthetic rubber or natural rubber, and the elastic strip is folded as many times as appropriate, and one end 41 in the length direction of the elastic strip Is fixed to the lower portion 19 of the fitting recess 15 and the other end 42 is fixed to the lid 12 so that the spring member 40 is in the stored state. The spring member 40 can be replaced by a conventional spring material such as a coil spring instead of the one shown in the example.

A latch 46 extends downward from the inner surface 29 of the lid 12 in the closed state on the left side of FIG. 4. At the lower end portion of the latch 46, the engagement projection 47 extends toward the latch receiving member 51 serving as a keeper for the latch 46. A recess 49 which is a part of the fitting recess 15 is formed in the fitting recess 15 of the container portion 11, and the latch 46 in the lid 12 when the latch receiving member 51 is accommodated and is in a closed state. Is engaged with the latch receiving member 51. When the lid 12 is in the closed state, the top opening 49 a of the recess 49 is concealed by the lid 12 and can not be seen from the outside of the dispensing container 10, which affects the appearance of the dispensing container 10. I will not give it. The latch receiving member 51 for engaging the latch 46 does not come out of the recess 49 upward because the forwardly extending portion 52 of the upper portion 18 in the fitting recess 15 abuts from above. In the latch receiving member 51, small protrusions 53 formed on the upper end and the lower end abut on the raised

portions

54a and 54b formed on the recess 49 and the extending portion 52 of the upper portion 18 from the front-rear direction C. By being in the obtained state, it does not swing in the front-rear direction C. Also in FIG. 4, the partition plate 17 is formed with a connecting portion 27 a extending through the rising portion 22.

FIG. 5 is a view on arrow VV in FIG. 4 and shows the front surface portion 51 a of the latch receiving member 51 accommodated in the recess 49. However, the front surface 51a shown in the drawing is designed so that the front surface 51a can be easily distinguished from the other portions by writing a large number of dots thereon. (A) to (f) in FIG. 5 correspond to a series of operations by the tissue paper user from the closing to the opening of the lid 12, and the projection 47 of the latch 46 enters the latch receiving member 51. It shows the process from when to leaving. The dispensing container 10 in which the lid 12 opens and closes in this process is a kind of container having a so-called push lock / push open locking mechanism.

FIG. 5A shows a state where the projection 47 of the latch 46 is beginning to enter the latch receiving member 51 when the lid 12 is to be closed. In this state, clearances 61 are formed between the latch receiving member 51 and both sides of the recess 49 so that the latch receiving member 51 can slide in the lateral direction B in the recess 49. The latch receiving member 51 is capable of linear sliding movement in the lateral direction B. The latch receiving member 51 also has a groove 62 formed in the front surface 51a. The groove portion 62 guides the projection portion 47 of the latch 46 which has entered from the inlet / outlet 62a of the groove portion 62 downward when the lid portion 12 is closed, and the projection portion 47 upwards from below And an engagement portion 67 between the entrance passage 63 and the exit passage 64 and connected to the lowermost ends 65 and 66 of the two

passages

63 and 64. Have. The engaging portion 67 is located above the

lower end portions

65 and 66 by a required size, and is a latch that is urged upward together with the lid 12 by the action of the spring member 40 (see FIG. 4). The projections 47 of 46 can be engaged and stopped in a pressure-contacting manner from the lower side to the upper side.

In FIG. 5B, when the lid 12 is further pivoted downward, the latch 46 advances linearly downward. However, since the approach path 63 has a curved line as shown, the projection 47 presses the side wall portion of the approach path 63 and slides the latch receiving member 51 to the left in the figure. While the latch 46 is advancing in this manner, the lid 12 presses the rising portion 22 of the container portion 11 with the hanging portion 30 of the lid 12 against the urging of the spring member 40, and the rising portion 22 is Elastically deform.

In (c) of FIG. 5, when the protrusion 47 reaches the lowermost end 65 of the approach path 63, a sense of dead end of the latch 46, that is, the lid 12, for the tissue paper user who is closing the lid 12. Can give the feeling of being completely closed. The projection 47 located at the lowermost end 65 is formed in front of the lowermost end 65 of the approach path 63 and passes through the step 68 a that prevents the upward movement of the projection 47. There is no need to go up the approach path 63 in reverse.

Further, in FIG. 5C, when the hand is released from the closed lid 12, the lid 12 under the urging of the spring member 40 and on which the elastic restoring force of the rising portion 22 acts is opened. Pivots in the direction, ie upwards. Then, the projection 47 passes through another step portion 68b that prevents retrograde movement, and ascends toward the engaging portion 67 which is curved so as to be convex upward, as shown in FIG. It will be in the state of The projection 47 at this time is engaged by pressing the engaging portion 67 from below and is in a stationary state. When the protrusion 47 is at rest, the lid 12 is in a closed state against the bias of the spring member 40. Further, since the rising portion 22 is elastically deformed by the pressure contact of the hanging portion 30 of the lid portion 12 with the top portion 32 of the rising portion 22 in the container portion 11, the lid portion 12 is elastic. It is closed against resilience.

In (e) of FIG. 5, the protrusion 47 is located at the lowermost end 66 of the exit path 64. When the projection 47 is in the state of FIG. 5D, when the outer surface 28 of the lid 12 is pressed at the portion 70 (see FIGS. 1 and 4) corresponding to the position directly above the latch 46, the projection 47 It is guided in the direction of passing the next step portion 68c that prevents the backward movement, and travels from the engaging portion 67 to the lowermost end 66 of the exit path 64. At the lowermost end 66, the descent of the lid 12 is stopped, and the user of the tissue paper can feel a dead end of the latch 46.

In (f) of FIG. 5, the projection 47 is guided by the exit path 64 and ascends from the lowermost end 66 so as to go out from the entrance 62 a of the groove 62. In (e) of FIG. 5, when the hand is released from the lid portion 12, the lid portion 12 which is under the urging of the spring member 40 and on which the restoring force of the elastically deforming upright portion 22 acts is removed. Starting to automatically turn upwards, so as to open the outlet 21. As the lid 12 pivots, the projection 47 is guided by the exit path 64 and reaches the entrance 62a.

In the dispensing container 10 formed in this manner, when the lid 12 in the lid opening / closing structure is closed, the annular drooping portion 30 is formed into an annular shape in which the fitting recess 15 of the lid opening / closing structure is formed. The rising portion 22 is elastically deformed inward in the radial direction by pressing on the rising portion 22. In other words, in FIG. 3, the rising portion 22 is deformed in the lateral direction B so that the drooping portion 30 reduces the inner diameter at the top portion 32 of the rising portion 22, and in FIG. There is. The drooping portion 30 may elastically deform the rising portion 22 so that the dimension in the vertical direction A becomes smaller along with the deformation of the rising portion 22 in this manner. Further, the hanging portion 30 when the lid 12 is opened has a size corresponding to the size in the vertical direction A when the protrusion 47 of the latch 46 is lowered from the engaging portion 67 to the lowermost end 66 of the withdrawal path 64. , And elastically deform the standing portion 22 which is in contact with the hanging portion 30 and is elastically deformed. That is, the peripheral wall portion 72 formed by the rising portion 22 and the hanging portion 30 is elastically deformed even when the projection 47 is in the engaging portion 67 or in each of the

lowermost end portions

65 and 66. . In the dispensing container 10 used in this manner, preferably, the rising portion 22 is formed of a soft elastic material so that the amount of elastic deformation of the peripheral wall portion 72 in the vertical direction A can be sufficiently large. Specifically, in the peripheral wall portion 72, the elastically deformable amount of the rising portion 22, that is, the elastically deformable dimension, keeps the space 74 airtight when the lid 12 is closed. Amount of elastic deformation in the vertical direction A necessary for the movement and the upper and lower portions necessary for the projection 47 of the latch 46 to move from the engagement portion 67 to the lowermost end 66 of the withdrawal path 64 when the lid 12 is opened. It is preferable to make the rising portion 22 to be larger than the sum of the amount of elastic deformation in the direction A.

6 and 7 are an enlarged view of a portion VI of FIG. 4 and a view taken along the line VII-VII of FIG. In FIG. 6, the lid 12 has a cover 12a covering the outlet 21 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) and an L-shaped arm 120 extending from the cover 12a. The arm 120 has a hanging portion 121 extending downward from the covering portion 12a, and a connecting portion 122 extending rearward from the lower end portion of the hanging portion 121 to the inside of the rear peripheral wall portion 16c of the container portion 11. Pivot shafts 130 extend horizontally on both sides in the lateral direction B from the distal end portion of the connecting portion 122 thus extended (see also FIG. 7). The pivot 130 is located below the rear peripheral edge 36b extending in the lateral direction B in the rear part of the covering 12a. A gap 101 having a dimension F in the vertical direction is formed between the rear peripheral portion 36 b and the inner contour 15 a of the fitting recess 15 in the container portion 11.

In FIG. 7, pivots 130 extending in the lateral direction B from both sides of the connecting portion 122 of the arm 120 are formed in the container portion 11 and in the bearing portion 124 formed in the wall surface portion 123 opposed to the connecting portion 122. It is possible to turn into the In the pivot shaft 130, a portion connected to the arm 120 is a proximal end, and entering into the bearing portion 124 is a distal end.

In the partially broken enlarged view surrounded by the imaginary line 300 in FIG. 7, the dimension W ₀ is a dimension in the lateral direction B which is the width of the arm 120. Dimension W ₁ is the dimension of the front side between and if the wall portion 123 are opposed to each other, the dimension W ₂ is the dimension of the rear side between and if the wall portion 123. Each of the dimensions W ₀ , W ₁ and W ₂ is adjusted such that the dimension W ₀ is smaller than the dimension W _{1 and} larger than the dimension W ₂ .

In order to open the outlet 21 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) in FIG. 6, the closed lid 12 is pivoted clockwise as shown by the arrow E (see FIGS. 4 and 7). The lid 12 is pivoted about the pivot axis 130 and stopped when the connecting portion 122 of the arm 120 abuts on the inner contour line 15 a of the container portion 11 or a portion around the same from the front, Paper 9 (see FIG. 4) can be taken out. When the lid 12 is pivoted, the rear peripheral edge 36b of the cover 12a located above the pivot 130 passes above the inner contour 15a of the container 11 separated by a gap 101 having the dimension F It turns and comes to the rear of the rear peripheral wall portion 16c (see also FIG. 2). Therefore, even if the gap 101 has a small value of about 0.5 to 1.5 mm, the covering part 12a does not contact the container part 11 when it turns. When the lid 12 is turned, the dispensing container 10 is in a state in which the rear peripheral wall 16c in the container 11 and the covering 12a in the lid 12 are connected without gaps in the vertical direction, as viewed from the rear. The external appearance having a sense of unity can be created in the container portion 11 and the lid portion 12. When the color tone of the container part 11 and the lid part 12 is the same, since the sense of unity becomes particularly strong, it is preferable. However, even if the container 11 and the lid 12 have opposite colors, for example, it is preferable that the appearance of the two-tone color created by the container 11 and the lid 12 is not divided in the vertical direction A. become.

The lid portion 12 is biased by the spring member 40. However, the wall portions 123 of the container portion 11 in which the bearing portion 124 is formed have dimensions between them that are from the front to the rear of the container portion 11. as gradually decreases toward the, i.e. the dimension W ₂ is inclined so smaller than the dimension W _1. Since the dimension W _{0 of the} arm 120 is larger than the dimension W ₂ , when the lid 12 is opened, the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 are engaged so as to slide and the lid 12 is biased. The speed at which it opens is throttled and gradually slows down. For example, even if the lid 12 which is being urged to start to open vigorously, when the opening is finished, the speed is slowed and the container 11 is not vibrated.

However, in the container 10, the engagement between the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 is not limited to the illustrated engagement. For example, a protrusion in the lateral direction B is formed in one of the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123, and a recess in which the protrusion can be fitted is formed in the other, and the lid 120 ends opening. At the same time, the engagement between the arm 120 and the wall surface portion 123 may be realized by causing the projection to slide around the recess and then fitting into the recess.
