Description

  The present invention relates to a wet tissue refill jig and a wet tissue container, and in particular, a wet tissue refill capable of performing a refilling operation of a wet tissue extremely safely, easily and hygienically without damaging the outlet of the wet tissue. The present invention relates to a replacement jig and a wet tissue container.

  Conventionally, wet tissue products in which a plurality of wet tissues are stored in a container so as to be separated one by one have become widespread. A conventional wet tissue container is composed of a container body and a container lid, and the container lid is provided with a wet tissue outlet.

  The wet tissue outlet has been devised in size and shape in order to improve the separation of one wet tissue and the draining of the wet tissue. As conventional outlets, for example, there are those provided only with small holes, those in which one slit intersects with the small holes, and those in which two slits intersect with the small holes in a cross shape.

  Further, the conventional wet tissue container can be reused by the customer refilling the optional refillable wet tissue. The refilling wet tissue is a state in which a continuous body of a plurality of wet tissues is wound in a roll shape or alternately folded, and when refilling the wet tissue container, first, the refilling wet tissue is loaded. Store in the container body, then pull out the end of the wet tissue (first one), finger, nail or stick (eg, toothpick, nib, clip, plus or minus screwdriver) at the container lid outlet Etc.) and pushed in and set.

  However, in the above-described conventional wet tissue container, there is a certain difficulty in the operation of pushing the end of the refilling wet tissue into a small outlet, and stress may be felt when it cannot be performed smoothly. In particular, it has not always been easy for children and the elderly to push the end of the refilling wet tissue into the outlet with fingers or nails.

  On the other hand, if the end of the refilling wet tissue is pushed into the outlet using a tool such as a toothpick, pen tip, clip, plus or minus screwdriver, the difficulty of the refilling operation is greatly reduced. The smaller the outlet, the thinner the tool that must be used, and there is a risk that the hand may be accidentally injured or the outlet may be damaged by the force applied when pushing in. If you use a thick tool, you don't have to worry about injury, but it makes it difficult to push the end of the refilling wet tissue into a small outlet.

  Therefore, to make it easier to push in the wet tissue, it is possible to enlarge the outlet or make it easier to open with a slit. In such a configuration, one piece at a time when the wet tissue is pulled out. It becomes difficult to separate, and the wet tissue that has been drawn out becomes insufficiently drained, causing problems such as splashing and dropping of water droplets. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 9 (d), in order to facilitate the insertion of the wet tissue, there is a configuration in which the outlet is made detachable from the wet tissue container and can be opened and closed by a slit. When doing this, it takes time and effort to attach and detach the outlet, and the outlet may be lost.

  In addition, tools such as a toothpick, nib, clip, plus or minus screwdriver have been used in the past, so these tools must be prepared in advance when refilling wet tissue for refilling. There was a complication.

  In addition, conventional wet tissue containers are configured to have wet tissue outlets such as small holes, single-letter shapes, cross-shaped shapes, and star shapes. None of the outlets were optimal in wet tissue retention. For this reason, after pulling out one piece of wet tissue, the length of the end of the next wet tissue that comes out of the take-out port may be too short or too long, and if the holding power is too strong The next wet tissue may not be held at the outlet and may fall into the container body. Conversely, if the holding power is too weak, the pulled wet tissue and the next wet tissue remain connected. Sometimes.

Thereafter, the end portion of the refilling wet tissue can be appropriately adjusted by pushing the divergent base portion into the minute hole or small hole.

  On the other hand, when the wet tissue outlet is a combination of a small hole and a slit provided directly or indirectly in the synthetic resin of the container lid (for example, see FIGS. 9C and 9D), Similarly, a small disk-shaped pushing portion 31a can be inserted into the slit so that the end of the refilling wet tissue can be easily passed.

  Such a wet tissue refill jig 31 is entirely made of a flexible synthetic resin and has a disk-like tip. Therefore, even if the hand is accidentally touched by a force applied to it, the hand may be injured. There is no need to worry about it.

  The wet tissue refill jig 32 in FIG. 6B has a conical shape as a whole, and has a configuration in which a substantially spherical pushing portion 32a is provided at the tip. In such a wet tissue refilling jig 32, first, a substantially spherical pushing portion 32a is pushed into an outlet (including a case where it is provided on a mouth rubber; the same applies hereinafter) to pass therethrough. If the entire jig is further pushed in as it is, the outlet is expanded along the cone-shaped outer shape. Since the pushing portion 32a has a substantially spherical shape, even if the pushing force is accidentally touched with the hand, there is no fear of injury to the hand, and the mouth rubber and the outlet are not damaged.

  The wet tissue refill jig 33 shown in FIG. 6C has a rod-like body as a whole, and has a configuration in which a substantially tapered surface-shaped pushing portion 33a is provided at the tip thereof. When the pushing portion 33a is pushed into the outlet, the outlet is pushed along a substantially tapered outer shape. Since the pushing portion 33a has a substantially tapered surface shape, even if the pushing force is accidentally touched with the hand, there is no fear of injury to the hand, and the mouth rubber and the outlet are not damaged.

  The wet tissue refill jig 34 shown in FIG. 6D has a thin rod-like body as a whole, and a push-in portion 34a at the tip has a sharp cone shape. Since the entire jig is made of a flexible synthetic resin, the pusher 34a becomes more flexible as the sharpness is increased, and even if the force applied to the pusher is touched by mistake, there is no risk of injury to the hand. And it doesn't hurt the outlet. Moreover, since the pushing part 34a is sharp, the front-end | tip is easy to introduce | transduce into an exit.

  The wet tissue refill jig 35 shown in FIG. 6 (e) is a rod-shaped body having a cross-shaped cross section. Since the pushing portion 35a at the tip has a cross-shaped cross section, it fits into an outlet (see FIG. 9C) provided with a cross-shaped slit. Similar to the above, since the entire jig is made of a flexible synthetic resin, it does not hurt the mouth rubber or the outlet, and there is no risk of injury.

The refilling jig may be attached to a part of the wet tissue container or stored in the wet tissue container.

[Second Embodiment]
Hereinafter, an embodiment of a mouth rubber provided with a wet tissue refill jig according to a second embodiment of the present invention and a wet tissue container provided with the mouth rubber will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 and 11.

<Composition of mouth rubber>
10 (a) and 10 (b), the mouth rubber 50 according to this embodiment is made of a relatively soft synthetic resin such as silicone rubber as a whole, and a substantially Y-shaped outlet 51 is formed in a disc-shaped body. In addition, a wet tissue refill jig 55 is integrally coupled via a belt 54 as a joint portion.

  As shown in FIG. 5C, the outlet 51 of the rubber band 50 has a substantially Y-shape consisting of three slits 51a, 51b and 51c extending radially from the center at intervals of about 120 °. In the center of the outlet 51, a hole 51d communicating with one end of each of the slits 51a to 51c is formed.

  Here, the reason that the take-out port 51 is formed in a substantially Y shape including the three slits 51a to 51c is to optimize the retention force of the wet tissue. When the wet tissue is pulled out, the end of the next wet tissue is pulled out from the take-out port 51 with an appropriate length. The total length L1 of each of the slits 51a to 51c is preferably in the range of about 1 to 5 mm, and the diameter of the hole 51d is preferably in the range of about 1 to 5 mm. In the present embodiment, the total length L1 of each of the slits 51a to 51c is about 2 mm, and the diameter of the hole 51d is about 2.5 mm.

  As shown in FIG. 10 (b), concentric recesses 52 and 53 are formed on the back surface of the body of the rubber band 50 so that the depth of the recess increases toward the center hole 51d. As shown in FIG. 11A, the recess 52 is an annular flat surface and is recessed to about half the thickness of the body of the mouth rubber 50. On the other hand, the recess 53 is a spherical recess continuous with the recess 52, and the thickness of the back surface of the outlet 51 is gradually reduced.

  Such recesses 52 and 53 serve to guide the tip of a protruding wet tissue refilling jig 55 to be described later to the hole 51d, so that the wet tissue refilling jig 55 can be inserted into the outlet 51 by groping. Support. Moreover, since the recessed parts 52 and 53 also play the role which guides the fingertip of the person who performs the refilling work of the wet tissue to the outlet 51, the position of the outlet 51 can be easily confirmed by groping.

  Returning to FIGS. 10A and 10B, the rubber band 50 of the present embodiment is provided with a cut 51 e that communicates from the outer periphery of the disc-shaped main body to the other end of the slit 51 a. The notch 51e is opened when the mouth rubber 50 is removed from the container lid 60 shown in FIG. 11, and is closed when the mouth rubber 50 is attached to the container lid 60 (see FIG. 11C). If such a cut 51e is opened and the end of the refilling wet tissue is sandwiched there, the refilling operation of the wet tissue can be performed without using the wet tissue refilling jig 55.

  On the opposite side of the notch 52 of the rubber band 50, a belt 54 is coupled to the back surface of the main body. As shown in FIG. 10B, a short bar-shaped wet tissue refilling jig 55 projects from the back surface of the belt 54. The tip of the wet tissue refilling jig 55 has a substantially hemispherical shape so as not to hurt human hands and the outlet 51 when performing the refilling operation of the wet tissue.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 11A, the length L3 from the connecting portion 54a at one end of the belt 54 to the wet tissue refilling jig 55 is substantially equal to the length L4 from the connecting portion 54a to the hole 51d. It is. With such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), the belt 54 serves as a hinge, and the wet tissue refilling jig 55 is rotated around the connection portion 54a of the belt 54, so that the wet tissue is packed. The replacement jig 55 can be easily inserted into the outlet 51.

  Further, the belt 54 is provided with a surplus portion extending rearward from the wet tissue refill jig 55, and this surplus portion serves as a knob portion 54 b when the wet tissue refill jig 55 is inserted into the outlet 51. It becomes.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 10 (a), a low columnar projection is provided at a position corresponding to the wet tissue refill jig 55 on the surface of the belt 54, and the center of the columnar projection is provided. A small locking hole 56 is formed. As shown in FIG. 11A, a small locking pin 61 a corresponding to the locking hole 56 of the belt 54 protrudes from the back surface of the container lid 60, and the locking pin 61 a is inserted into the locking hole 56. By press-fitting, the wet tissue refilling jig 55 can be held on the back surface of the container lid 60.

  Such a mouth rubber 50 is press-fitted and held in the attachment portion 61 of the container lid 60 shown in FIG. The attachment portion 61 has a cylindrical shape with an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the main body of the rubber band 50, and has a longitudinal groove 61 a for receiving the belt 54.

<How to use wet tissue refill jig>
Similar to the above-described embodiment, when refilling a wet tissue container with a refilling wet tissue, first, the container lid 60 is removed from the container body. Then, the roll-shaped refilling wet tissue is housed in the container body, and the end (first sheet) of the wet tissue W (see FIG. 11B) is pulled out from the roll-shaped center. Then, the end of the drawn wet tissue W is superimposed on the back surface side of the gum rubber 50.

  Next, the grip 54b of the belt 54 shown in FIG. 11A is pinched to release the engagement between the locking hole 56 and the locking pin 62, and the wet tissue is packed around the connection 54a of the belt 54 as it is. The replacement jig 55 is rotated by about 180 °, and the wet tissue refilling jig 55 is placed on the back side of the mouth rubber 51 along with the end of the wet tissue W as shown in FIG. Push into the center of the letter-shaped outlet 51. As a result, the end of the wet tissue W is sandwiched between the substantially Y-shaped outlets 50. If necessary, the end of the wet tissue W may be pulled out from the front side of the container lid 60 and adjusted to a length that can be easily gripped with a finger. Thereafter, when the container lid 60 is attached to the container body and the opening / closing lid is closed, the refilling of the wet tissue for refilling is completed.

<Effect>
According to the mouth rubber 50 provided with the wet tissue refill jig 55 of this embodiment and the wet tissue container provided with the mouth rubber 50, the wet tissue refill jig 55 is incorporated in the wet tissue container. Therefore, the wet tissue refill jig 55 can be provided without affecting the appearance design of the wet tissue container. Further, the wet tissue refilling jig 55 can be provided in the vicinity of the take-out port 51 on the back side of the container lid 60. 5 (see FIG. 5A) becomes unnecessary, and the belt 54 can be shortened.

  Further, by applying the main mouth rubber 50 with the wet tissue refilling jig 55, the wet tissue refilling jig 55 can be provided in an existing wet tissue container without making a major design change.

  Further, the belt 54 serves as a hinge, pinches the grip portion 54b of the belt 54, and rotates the wet tissue refill jig 55 around the connection portion 54a of the belt 54, so that the wet tissue refill jig 55 is rotated. Can be easily inserted through the outlet 51 of the rubber band 50. As a result, an elderly person or a person who is not good at fine work can easily remove the end of the refilling wet tissue W to the outlet 51 without having to visually check the wet tissue refilling jig 55 or the outlet 51. It can be pushed in.

  In addition to this, an appropriate holding force is generated when the bottom hem portion of the wet tissue passes through the substantially Y-shaped slits 51a to 51c. Thereby, the end of the refilling wet tissue W can be easily pushed into the outlet 51, and then the wet tissue can be easily pulled out from the outlet 51. Moreover, as shown in the following examples, the end of the next wet tissue can be pulled out from the take-out port 51 with an appropriate length.

  Three types of gums provided with a one-letter-shaped outlet shown in FIG. 9 (d), a cross-shaped outlet shown in FIG. 9 (c), and a Y-shaped outlet shown in FIGS. 10 (a) to 10 (c). Then, after pulling out one wet tissue, the length of the end of the next wet tissue coming out from the outlet was comparatively measured.

[Test method]
The wet tissue wound in a roll is stored in the container body, the end of the wet tissue is pulled out from the center of the roll, and set on the mouth rubber of the container lid. Thereafter, the container lid is attached to the container body, and 49 wet tissues containing 50 sheets are manually pulled out in the same manner as in actual use. Each time a piece of wet tissue is pulled out, the length of the end of the next wet tissue coming out from the outlet is measured.

[Evaluation method]
The measured value (mm) is evaluated according to Table 1 below, and the precision (%) is calculated.

  In Table 1 above, “falling” means a state in which the next wet tissue is not held at the outlet. In addition, “connected” means a state in which two or more wet tissues are connected and pulled out even though the perforation is normal.

The precision (%) is calculated based on the following formula (1).
Compliance rate (%) = “Applicable” number of sheets + “Slightly short” number of sheets / Total number of extracted sheets (1)
However, the calculation of the compliance rate (%) includes “somewhat short” which does not cause a problem in actual use, in addition to “adaptation” of a preferable length.

[Test results]
The test results are shown in Table 2 below.

  From the above test results, it was found that the precision (%) was higher in the order of Y shape> one character shape> cross character type. Therefore, the mouth rubber having the Y-shaped take-out port of the present invention exerts the optimum holding force of the wet tissue, and in actual use, the end of the next wet tissue is pulled out from the take-out port with an appropriate length. It can be in the state.
