JP 2002-306238 A Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2005-40207

However, the conventional techniques described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 both contain a kind of fragrance as a fragrance container, and there is a problem that different fragrances cannot be enjoyed when desired. .
Moreover, there was a problem that two kinds of fragrances could be diffused at the same time and the mixed fragrance could not be enjoyed.

  Since the fragrance container is rod-shaped, there is a problem that it becomes bulky when it is carried.

  An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and is a thin case shape whose overall shape is small enough to fit in a palm suitable for carrying, and a thin plate shape that houses a plurality of replaceable fragrance sheets The air freshener container is made thin and suitable for portability, the air freshener can be easily replaced as needed, and a plurality of air fresheners can be simultaneously diffused. The purpose is to provide.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a fragrance container having a thin outer shape as a fragrance container, comprising various fragrance sheets containing the fragrance, so that the fragrance sheet can be replaced. A thin plate cartridge to be attached, a base that supports the cartridge in a slidable and replaceable manner, and a cover that is fixed to the base and covers the cartridge. The substrate to be formed is provided, the cover has an open edge part into which the cartridge can be inserted, and the cartridge can be stored and pulled out in the upper and lower spaces formed by the base and the cover. A configuration characterized by being mounted is adopted.

As a specific example, two substantially U-shaped ribs along the periphery are provided in parallel with a concave groove between the upper and lower surfaces of the base substrate, and the cover is substantially on the back surface. A U-shaped protrusion and an engaging step for guiding the cartridge are provided, and the cover is fixed to the base by fitting the protrusion of the cover into the concave groove of the base. A configuration characterized by a feature, and further a configuration characterized in that the cartridge is colored according to the type of the fragrance.

  The fragrance container is a thin case that is small enough to fit in a thin palm, making it convenient to carry.

  Since a plurality of cartridges can be exchanged, it is possible to blend not only the scent but also the scent.

  The replaceable cartridge color was colored according to the type of fragrance so that the characteristics of the fragrance could be visually recognized.

Next, the fragrance container of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
In the fragrance container of the present invention, the cartridge on which the fragrance sheet is replaceably mounted can be freely changed.

  In FIG. 1, A1 and A2 are cartridges, B1 and B2 are fragrance sheets accommodated in the cartridge, C is a base, and D1 and D2 are covers.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the cartridges A <b> 1 and A <b> 2 include a frame body 1 that surrounds and supports the periphery of the fragrance sheet B, and a knob portion 2 that is connected to the end of the frame body 1. Yes.
The frame 1 includes an arc-shaped front plate 3, linear side plates 4 on both sides, and a rear plate 5. A presser plate 6 that protrudes inward is provided on the upper end of the front plate 3. Yes.

A support frame 7 that protrudes inward is provided at the lower end of the side plate 4, and a guide protrusion 8 that slides on the inner side surface of the cover D is provided at the upper end, and the outer surface of the side plate 4 below the guide protrusion 8. A pair of locking projections 9 that are engaged with locking portions provided on the base C are projected.
A locking protrusion 10 is provided on the inner surface of the rear plate 5.

  As the fragrance sheet B, a non-woven fabric, a porous resin, or a coated product of a granular fragrance, or a plate-like solid material, which is impregnated with a liquid fragrance and covered with a film having a part of an opening, is used. The sheet is placed on the support frame 7 of the cartridges A1 and A2, and is formed in a sheet shape so as to be held by the presser plate 6 and the locking protrusion 10.

As shown in FIG. 4, the base C includes an oval substrate 15 having arcuate portions at the front and rear, and the upper and lower surfaces of the substrate 15 are arranged along the peripheral edges of the arc portion 16 and the linear portions 17 on both sides. The two U-shaped inner and outer ribs 18a and 18b are provided in parallel at a predetermined interval, and a U-shaped groove 19 is formed between the two ribs 18a and 18b. .

On the inner surface of the inner rib 18a, a pair of locking portions 20 that engage with and hold the locking protrusions 9 of the cartridges A1 and A2 are formed.
Projections 21 are provided at the corners of the substrate 15, and holes 22 for passing a portable strap are perforated.

As shown in FIG. 5, the covers D <b> 1 and D <b> 2 have a circular arc and three linear edges, and the planar shape is a shape that covers a portion excluding the portion corresponding to the knob portion 2 of the cartridge A, and is transparent or translucent It is configured so that the inside can be seen.
A knob portion 25 having substantially the same shape as the knob portion 2 is formed along the arc edge, and the other portion is a pressing portion 26.
The straight edge 27 facing the knob 25 is opened so that the cartridge A1 can be inserted, and a U-shaped protrusion that fits into the U-shaped groove 19 of the base C is formed on the back surface of the cover. An engagement step portion 29 that engages with the strip 28 and the guide projection 8 of the cartridge A1 is provided.

Next, usage modes and effects of the fragrance container of the present invention will be described.
When assembling the fragrance container, the cartridges A1 and A2 on which the fragrance sheet B is placed are mounted on the upper and lower surfaces of the base C, and then the covers D1 and D2 are placed so as to cover the cartridges A1 and A2 from above and below. Install.

  The cartridge A is inserted in such a manner that the guide protrusion 8 of the frame 1 is slidably guided to the engagement step portion 29 on the substrate 15 of the base C, and the cover D is attached to the U-shaped recess of the base C. The cartridge A is slidable by being fixed to the groove 19 by fitting the U-shaped ridge 28.

At that time, the locking protrusion 9 holds the cartridge A in a fixed position by the engagement with the locking portion 20 and prevents the cartridge A from inadvertently falling off the base C.
Further, since both sides of the frame 1 are configured to be relatively thin and can be elastically deformed, when replacing the cartridge A, the locking projection 9 is locked by pulling it out with a certain force or more. It is possible to get over the section 20.
Therefore, the cartridge A can be easily replaced as necessary.

The cartridge A is colored according to the type of the fragrance so that the characteristics of the fragrance can be visually recognized.
For example, if the fragrance of mint is blue and the rose color is selected for the fragrance of rose, the selection of the fragrance can be facilitated.

In use, as shown in FIG. 6, the cartridge A can be temporarily fixed in a state where the cartridge A is slid and pulled out to a predetermined position to dissipate the fragrance.
Two cartridges A can be pulled out at the same time, two kinds of fragrances can be diffused, and the same effects as using blended perfumes can be achieved.

  Since the cartridge A can be replaced by pulling it out with a certain force or more, it is possible to select various combinations by preparing various types, and the fragrance sheet B can also be replaced. Therefore, the selection range of fragrance can be further expanded.

  Since the fragrance container, cartridge, and fragrance sheet are thin, they can be easily carried and carried, and the overall shape is similar to that of a mobile phone.

In the present invention, since the fragrance container is a thin case that is small enough to fit in the palm of the hand, it can be widely used as a portable fragrance container.
Further, since the plurality of cartridges can be exchanged, it can be used as a fragrance container capable of blending fragrances.
