Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tissue box technology, and more specifically, to a safe and practical tissue box. Background Technology

[0002] Existing tissue boxes are only used to store tissues. When some tissues are used, they easily fall into the box, making them inconvenient to retrieve. The current solution is to install a spring and a plastic base inside the box, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. However, even within the same brand of tissue paper, there are variations in the size and thickness of the tissues. Therefore, it's rare for commercially available tissue boxes to perfectly match the size and thickness of the tissues. When thicker tissues are placed in a spring-loaded tissue box, the excessive elasticity or thickness of the tissue can cause it to be stuck too tightly, making it easy to tear when pulled out and potentially pushing the lid out. Furthermore, during testing, the springs were found to deform and break due to excessive pressure. Additionally, to save costs, existing tissue boxes often have holes punched directly into the lid for the tissue drawer, which can easily cause scratches when fingers are inserted to retrieve the tissue. Therefore, how to make a tissue box adaptable to various sizes of tissues without causing scratches to users is the technical problem this application aims to solve. Utility Model Content

[0030] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can implement it based on the description.

[0031] It should be understood that terms such as “having,” “comprising,” and “including” as used herein do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.

[0032] As shown in the figure, this utility model provides a safe and practical tissue box, including: a box body 1 and a box lid 2. The box lid 2 is provided with a tissue drawer 21. The box body 1 and the box lid 2 are detachably connected. The box body 1 is provided with a base 3 made of elastic material. The base 3 is used to support the tissues. After the tissues are placed on the box and the box lid 2 is closed, the base 3 will be compressed and deformed, thereby providing force for the tissues, allowing the tissues to stick to the bottom surface of the box lid 2 without lifting the box lid 2. The tissue drawer 21 is provided with a scratch-resistant structure 4. The distance between the top surface of the box lid 2 and the top surface of the base 3 is no more than 5cm (usually the height of a finger joint), so that users can easily pick out the tissues with their fingers when the tissues are about to run out. Traditional spring structures, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, if the tissue paper is too small to contact the inner wall of the box 1, the center of gravity may shift, causing the spring to be compressed in a non-vertical direction. This results in uneven force on the tissue paper, making it easy to tear when pulling it out. The base 3 is made of flexible polyester foam material, such as sponge or memory foam. This allows the base 3 to be elastic without being restricted to the direction of force, as its rebound force is gentler than that of a spring. The anti-scratch structure 4 is an arc-shaped sealing edge extending from the side wall of the tissue paper opening 21 into the interior of the tissue paper opening 21. Figures 3-5 As shown, the anti-scratch structure 4 does not use the traditional chamfering process to chamfer the edge of the tissue drawer 21. Instead, the inner wall of the tissue drawer 21 is directly made into an arc shape. The cross-section of the anti-scratch structure 4 is usually semi-circular. The top and bottom of the anti-scratch structure 4 are tangent to the upper and lower surfaces of the lid 2. Figure 9 As shown, this design eliminates the need to distinguish between the front and back of the lid 2. The curved edge prevents the tissue from being pressed down by sharp corners when pulling out the tissue. When the tissue is thick and the base 3 provides significant resilience, it effectively prevents tearing. Furthermore, fingers will not be scratched when inserted into the box body 1 through the tissue drawer 21. The opening area of ​​the box body 1 is larger than the area of ​​its inner bottom surface, creating a conical cavity that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, allowing the box body 1 to accommodate tissues of different sizes as much as possible. An inwardly extending support platform is provided on the inner wall of the box body 1 to support the lid 2. When the lid 2 is placed on the box body 1, the support platform can limit its movement, preventing the lid 2 from becoming stuck inside the box body 1 and unable to be removed.

[0033] Furthermore, to facilitate the quick assembly and disassembly of the box body 1 and the box lid 2, the box body 1 is provided with a first mating component 5, and the box lid 2 is provided with a second mating component 6. The box body 1 is detachably connected to the box lid 2 through the engagement of the first mating component 5 and the second mating component 6. The first mating component 5 and the second mating component 6 can be a snap-fit ​​structure or a plug-in structure.

[0034] Furthermore, to optimize the structure of the tissue box and reduce production difficulty and cost, the first mating part 5 is disposed on the inner side wall of the box body 1, and the second mating part 6 is disposed on the side wall of the box lid 2. The first mating part 5 can be an arc-shaped locking platform protruding into the box body 1, and the second mating part 6 can be an arc-shaped groove adapted to the arc-shaped locking platform, such as... Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown.

[0035] Furthermore, the base 3 is composed of at least one support structure 7.

[0036] As one of many implementation methods, the support structure 7 can be a rectangular block structure, such as... Figure 8 As shown in 7a, the support structure 7a can be placed directly inside the box body 1. Since the box body 1 has a conical structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, when the support structure 7a is placed inside the box body 1, the bottom surface of the support structure 7a contacts the inner bottom surface of the box body 1, and there is a gap between the side wall of the support structure 7a and the inner wall of the box body 1. This gap can serve as the deformation space for the support structure 7a. When the tissue is placed on the top surface of the support structure 7a and the support structure 7a is compressed, the support structure 7a deforms, and its side wall can contact the inner wall of the box body 1. This embodiment is the support structure 7a with the simplest production process and the lowest cost. However, because its deformation space is small, it is only suitable for thin tissues.

[0037] Furthermore, the base 3 also has at least one deformation space 8, which is located within the support structure 7. For example... Figure 8 As shown in 7b, 7c and 7d, the support structure 7b has only one deformation space 8, which is larger than the support structure 7a in the previous embodiment, and is suitable for paper towels of various thicknesses.

[0038] The support structure 7c adopts a design with multiple deformation spaces 8. By using multiple deformation spaces 8, ribs for support can be formed between each deformation space 8. Compared with the support structure 7b, the production process of this embodiment is more complicated, but it has better support for paper towels that are heavier and thicker, and will not be easily crushed.

[0039] The support structure 7d adopts a frustum-shaped design with a deformation space 8 at the central axis. Compared with the previous embodiments, this embodiment has the smallest contact area with the tissue, making it easy for the tissue to tip over. It is not suitable for smaller tissues. However, for larger and thicker tissues, this embodiment has stronger support, resilience, and greater deformation than the support structure 7c. Because it adopts a frustum-shaped structural design, it does not have many requirements on the internal space and size of the box body 1, making it applicable to tissue boxes of various sizes. Compared with the previous embodiments, it has greater versatility.

[0040] Furthermore, when the number of support structures 7 is greater than two, the base 3 also includes a mounting plate 9 for installing the support structures 7. Multiple support structures 7 can be connected into a single unit via the mounting plate 9, and the deformation space 8 is located between adjacent support structures 7. For example... Figure 8As shown in Figure 7e, the support structure 7e is a trapezoidal structure with a smaller top and a larger bottom. The end with the larger surface area is positioned on the mounting plate 9. Typically, four support structures 7e are mounted on one mounting plate 9, forming a deformation space 8 between adjacent support structures 7e. Although the manufacturing process of this embodiment is the most complex, it is the most commonly used embodiment because different arrangement methods can be selected within the box body 1, such as... Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, when the tissue paper is small or thin, the mounting plate 9 can be placed on top, such as... Figure 10 As shown in b, and Figure 11 As shown in Figure a, this allows the mounting plate 9 to provide a larger contact area for the paper towel, resulting in more even pressure distribution. When the paper towel is large or thick, the mounting plate 9 can be placed at the bottom, as shown in Figure a. Figure 10 As shown in a, and Figure 11 As shown in b, this allows the support structure 7e to have a larger deformation space 8, and as the tissue becomes thinner with use, the rebound force of the support structure 7e on the tissue will gradually decrease, preventing the lid 2 from being pushed open.
