[0008] Hereinafter, the installation fixture and the installation object according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that in each drawing, "upper" and "lower" are illustrated based on the case where the installation object is installed on a horizontal installation surface. <First embodiment> In the first embodiment, a case will be described where the installation object is a wet tissue case 1. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the wet tissue case 1. The wet tissue case 1 is cylindrical. In each of the drawings including Fig. 1, the center of the cylinder of the wet tissue case 1 is illustrated as a center line O. The wet tissue case 1 includes a container body 10 as an object to be installed, and an installation fixture 100.

[0009] The container body 10 accommodates the wet tissues wound in a roll. The container body 10 is a long cylinder in the vertical direction, and has a space for accommodating the wet tissues inside. The container body 10 is made of synthetic resin, but is not particularly limited, and may be made of metal, wood, or the like. The container body 10 is connected to the lid 11 via a hinge portion (not shown) so that the lid 11 can be opened and closed. In this embodiment, the container body 10 and the lid 11 are engaged with each other by a latch structure that alternately repeats engagement and release each time the lid 11 is pressed down from above. Specifically, the user can release the engagement by the latch structure by lightly pressing downward on the tip 11a (the end opposite to the hinge portion) of the upper surface of the lid 11 engaged by the latch structure. By releasing the engagement, the lid 11 opens, and the upper end of the container body 10 is exposed, so that the user can pull out the wet tissues accommodated in the container body 10 one by one toward the upper side. Furthermore, the user can lightly press the tip 11a of the lid 11 downward to engage the lid 11 by the latch structure.

[0010] The installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface. The entire wet tissue case 1 is fixed to the installation surface by attaching the installation fixture 100 to the container body 10. The installation fixture 100 is located at the lower end of the container body 10.

[0011] FIG. 2A is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the installation fixture 100 as viewed from above, and FIG. 2B is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the installation fixture 100 as viewed from below. The installation fixture 100 of this embodiment is substantially cylindrical with a bottom and flat. Therefore, the installation fixture 100 is circular in plan view and bottom view. The installation fixture 100 is made of a flexible and deformable material, specifically, made of a synthetic resin softer than the container body 10, and examples of the material that can be used include silicone rubber, TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer), and PVC. The installation fixture 100 is molded by, for example, injection molding, modeling using a 3D printer, or the like.

[0012] Fig. 3A is a partial cross-sectional view taken along line II in the vertical direction passing through center line O in Fig. 1 and seen from the direction of the arrow. Fig. 3B is an enlarged view of the part shown by the two-dot chain line in Fig. 3A. Note that Figs. 3A and 3B show a state in which the installation fixture 100 is not fixed to the installation surface and is separated from the installation surface. Also, in this embodiment, the cross-sectional view is not limited to line II, and the cross-sectional view taken along the vertical direction passing through center line O is substantially the same as Figs. 3A and 3B.

[0013] 3A, the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10 so as to be disposed below the container body 10. Here, the container body 10 and the installation fixture 100 have shapes that can improve the design of the entire wet tissue case 1 and improve the attachment of the installation fixture 100. Specifically, the container body 10 has a container side portion (a side portion to be installed) 12 and a container bottom portion (a bottom portion to be installed) 15. The container side 12 has a recess (recess) 13 recessed toward the center line O at the bottom where the installation fixture 100 is disposed. The recess 13 is formed around the entire circumference of the container side 12. Therefore, the outer diameter (diameter) of the container body 10 is small at the position of the recess 13 and is large above the recess 13. By disposing the side 130 of the installation fixture 100, which will be described later, within the recess 13, the amount by which the side 130 protrudes outward from the outer circumferential surface of the container side 12 can be suppressed or reduced, and the design of the entire wet tissue case 1 can be improved.

[0014] The container body 10 also has a rib-like protrusion 16 that protrudes downward at a position away from the center line O. The protrusion 16 is formed in a ring shape centered on the center line O. The protrusion 16 is located closer to the container side 12 side than the center line O. A curved or bent curved portion 17 is formed between the container side 12 and the container bottom 15. The protrusion 16 is located near the boundary between the container side 12 and the container bottom 15, specifically, at the boundary between the container bottom 15 and the curved portion 17. The installation fixture 100 can be attached to the container body 10 by arranging a bottom portion 110 (described later) of the installation fixture 100 in the space surrounded by the protrusion 16 and the container bottom 15. The protrusion 16 can regulate the position when the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, thereby improving the attachment of the installation fixture 100. At this time, the container bottom 15 and the bottom portion 110 face each other over a wide range in the horizontal direction. The container bottom 15 and bottom 110 are joined together via an adhesive means such as an adhesive or double-sided tape.

[0015] Next, the configuration of the installation fixture 100 will be specifically described. The installation fixture 100 has a bottom portion 110, a flange portion 120, and a side portion 130. The bottom portion 110, the flange portion 120, and the side portion 130 are integrally formed.

[0016] When the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, the bottom 110 is located below the container bottom 15 of the container body 10. When the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, the bottom 110 is fitted into the space surrounded by the protrusion 16 and container bottom 15 of the container body 10 described above. The bottom 110 is disk-shaped with the center line O as its center, and is flat and extends horizontally. 3A, the cross-sectional area of ​​the bottom portion 110 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the flange portion 120 and is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the side portion 130. The cross-sectional area of ​​the bottom portion 110 is also larger than the combined cross-sectional area of ​​the flange portion 120 and the side portion 130. The bottom portion 110 functions as a base (foundation) of the installation fixture 100.

[0017] The bottom 110 has an upper surface 111 , a lower surface 112 , and a side surface 113 . The upper surface 111 is a horizontal surface and is circular in a plan view. The upper surface 111 contacts the lower surface of the container bottom 15 of the container body 10 directly or via an adhesive means. The lower surface 112 is a horizontal surface and is circular in a bottom view. When the installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface, the flange portion 120 bends, causing the lower surface 112 to contact the installation surface. The side surface 113 is a surface that continues downward from the outer periphery of the upper surface 111. The side surface 113 is a surface that extends along the up-down direction. The side surface 113 is formed in an annular shape centered on the center line O. The bottom portion 110 is positioned by a portion of the side surface 113 coming into contact with the protrusion 16 of the container body 10.

[0018] Here, the distance between the upper surface 111 and the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 is defined as a thickness dimension Tb. The thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110 is larger than a thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120, which will be described later. The thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110 is also larger than a thickness dimension Ts of the side portion 130, which will be described later. The thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110 can be set to, for example, 4 mm to 8 mm. However, the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110 is not particularly limited. In addition, when the distance between the upper surface 111 and the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 changes depending on the horizontal position, the average distance between the upper surface 111 and the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 can be defined as the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110.

[0019] When the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, the flange portion 120 is located below the curved portion 17 of the container body 10. The flange portion 120 is also located below the protrusion portion 16 of the container body 10. The flange portion 120 is also formed between the bottom portion 110 and the side portion 130. The flange portion 120 extends at an incline downward and outward from the outer circumferential edge of the bottom portion 110. The flange portion 120 also extends continuously from the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 and continuously from the side surface 113 of the bottom portion 110. The flange portion 120 is annular with the center line O as its center.

[0020] The flange portion 120 has an upper inclined surface 121 , a lower inclined surface 122 , and a contact surface 123 . The upper inclined surface 121 is a surface located on the upper side of the flange portion 120, and is continuous with the side surface 113 of the bottom portion 110. The upper inclined surface 121 is a surface that is inclined with respect to a horizontal surface. Moreover, the upper inclined surface 121 is inclined downward as it goes outward.

[0021] The lower inclined surface 122 is a surface that comes into surface contact with the installation surface. The lower inclined surface 122 is a surface located on the lower side of the flange portion 120, and is continuous with the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110. The lower inclined surface 122 is located between the contact surface 123 and the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110. The lower inclined surface 122 is a surface that is inclined with respect to a horizontal surface. The lower inclined surface 122 is inclined downward as it goes outward. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3B, the lower inclined surface 122 is a straight line along the inclination direction. Here, the inclination angle on the acute angle side between the lower inclined surface 122 and the horizontal surface is θf. The inclination angle θf of the lower inclined surface 122 can be, for example, 10° to 40°, and preferably greater than 10° and less than 30°. However, the inclination angle θf of the lower inclined surface 122 is not particularly limited. When the lower inclined surface 122 comes into surface contact with the installation surface, the flange portion 120 is bent and becomes a horizontal surface.

[0022] The contact surface 123 is a surface that first comes into surface contact with the installation surface. The contact surface 123 is a surface located at the lower end of the flange portion 120, and is continuous with the lower inclined surface 122. The contact surface 123 is located on the tip side of the flange portion 120, away from the outer circumferential edge of the bottom portion 110. The contact surface 123 is a flat surface. Furthermore, the inclination angle of the acute angle side of the contact surface 123 with respect to the horizontal surface is smaller than the inclination angle θf of the lower inclined surface 122. Specifically, the inclination angle of the contact surface 123 is, for example, 0° to 5°, and the contact surface 123 is a substantially horizontal surface.

[0023] Since the flange portion 120 has the contact surface 123 that contacts the installation surface, the installation fixture 100 can be brought into surface contact with the installation surface immediately after the installation fixture 100 is brought into contact with the installation surface, so that the installation fixture 100 is firmly fixed to the installation surface. In addition, the contact surface 123 is away from the center line O of the installation fixture 100 and is located on the tip side of the flange portion 120, so that the container body 10 can be stably fixed to the installation surface without shaking relative to the installation surface. Here, the horizontal distance of the contact surface 123 (the distance from the boundary between the lower inclined surface 122 and the contact surface 123 to the end of the contact surface 123) is defined as the width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123. The width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123 can be, for example, 3 mm to 4.5 mm. However, the width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123 is not particularly limited.

[0024] Furthermore, when the installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface, the flange portion 120 is configured such that the vicinity of the boundary with the bottom portion 110 and the vicinity of the boundary with the side portion 130 are deflected by the user pressing the container body 10 against the installation surface or by the weight of the container body 10 being received, so that the lower inclined surface 122 comes into surface contact with the installation surface. In this manner, the flange portion 120 has flexibility since the lower inclined surface 122 comes into surface contact with the installation surface. Here, the distance between the upper inclined surface 121 and the lower inclined surface 122 of the flange portion 120 is defined as a thickness dimension Tf. The thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120 is smaller than the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110. The thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120 is also smaller than the thickness dimension Ts of the side portion 130. By reducing the thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120, the flange portion 120 can be made more flexible. The thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120 is formed to be slightly smaller from the bottom portion 110 toward the side portion 130. The thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120 is smaller than the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom portion 110 at any position and smaller than the thickness dimension Ts of the side portion 130.

[0025] Moreover, the flange portion 120 has flexibility and elasticity. For example, assume that the installation fixture 100 is not attached to the container body 10, and the installation fixture 100 alone is placed (placed) without being pressed against the installation surface. In this case, the flange portion 120 does not bear the weight of the container body 10, and therefore can maintain a state inclined outward and downward from the bottom portion 110 due to its own elasticity.

[0026] In addition, the lower inclined surface 122 is preferably large enough to cover any dents such as grain or wood grain formed on the installation surface when it comes into contact with the installation surface. Here, the distance along the inclination direction of the lower inclined surface 122 (the distance from the boundary between the lower surface 112 of the bottom 110 and the lower inclined surface 122 to the boundary between the lower inclined surface 122 and the contact surface 123) is defined as the width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122. The width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 is larger than the width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123. The width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 can be, for example, 5 mm to 20 mm. However, the width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 is not particularly limited. In addition, the width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 can be appropriately changed according to the type of the assumed installation surface. For example, when a glossy surface with few dents is assumed, the width dimension Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 is made smaller since there are no dents on the installation surface. On the other hand, when a board surface having wood grain or the like is assumed, the width Wf of the lower inclined surface 122 is made large so that one grain can be covered without protruding from the lower inclined surface 122.

[0027] Since the installation fixture 100 has the flange portion 120 in this manner, a space S is formed that is surrounded by the bottom portion 110 and the lower inclined surface 122. As shown in FIG. 3A, the space S is substantially trapezoidal. Here, the vertical distance of the space S is taken as the height dimension Hs (see FIG. 3B). The height dimension Hs of the space S is the vertical distance from the bottom portion 110 to the tip side of the flange portion 120 (the vertical distance from the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 to the contact surface 123 of the flange portion 120). When the installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface, the space S disappears as the bottom portion 110 comes into contact with the installation surface.

[0028] When the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, the side portion 130 is positioned so as to surround the container side portion 12 of the container body 10. Furthermore, when the installation fixture 100 is attached to the container body 10, the side portion 130 is positioned within the recess 13 of the container side portion 12. The side portion 130 functions as an operating portion that allows the user to release the state in which the installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface. To release the fixation by the installation fixture 100, the user presses the side portion 130 toward the center line O.

[0029] The side portion 130 extends upward from the outer circumferential edge of the flange portion 120. The side portion 130 also extends continuously from the upper inclined surface 121 of the flange portion 120 and continuously from the contact surface 123 of the flange portion 120. The side portion 130 is cylindrical with the center line O as its center.

[0030] The side portion 130 has an inner surface 131 , an outer surface 132 , and a top surface 133 . The inner surface 131 is a surface located on the inside of the side portion 130, i.e., on the side of the center line O, and is continuous with the upper inclined surface 121. The inner surface 131 is a surface that extends approximately along the vertical direction. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3B, the inner surface 131 is linear along the vertical direction. The upper portion of the inner surface 131 faces the outer peripheral surface 13a of the recess 13 of the container body 10, the lower portion faces the protrusion 16 of the container body 10, and the center in the vertical direction faces the curved portion 17 of the container body 10. The inner surface 131 does not contact the container body 10 at any position, and is separated from the container body 10 in the horizontal direction.

[0031] The outer surface 132 is the outer side of the side portion 130, that is, a surface located away from the center line O, and is continuous with the tangent surface 123. The outer surface 132 is a surface along the approximately vertical direction. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3B, the outer surface 132 curves so as to approach the center line O as it goes downward. Therefore, the outer surface 132 and the inner surface 131 are not parallel to each other. Here, as shown in FIG. 3A, the dimension between the outer surfaces 132 sandwiching the center line O is the outer dimension (diameter) Ds of the side portion 130, and the outer dimension (diameter) Dc directly above the recess 13 of the container body 10. The outer dimension Ds of the side portion 130 and the outer dimension Dc of the container body 10 are approximately the same. The outer surface 132 of the side portion 130 is configured not to protrude horizontally from the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12 of the container body 10. In order to prevent a user from accidentally touching the side portion 130, the outer dimension of the side portion 130 may be reduced so that the outer dimension Ds of the side portion 130 is smaller than the outer dimension Dc of the container body 10.

[0032] The upper end surface 133 is a surface located at the upper end of the side portion 130, and is continuous with the inner surface 131 and the outer surface 132. The upper end surface 133 is a horizontal surface. Here, as shown in FIG. 3B, the dimension between the upper end surface 133 and the upper surface 13b of the recess 13 is the gap dimension Gs. When the installation fixture 100 is fixed to the installation surface, the bottom portion 110 moves downward and contacts the installation surface as described above. At this time, the container body 10 to which the bottom portion 110 is attached also moves downward like the bottom portion 110. The gap dimension Gs is set to be larger than the height dimension Hs of the space S so that a gap is generated even when the container body 10 moves downward.

[0033] When a user presses the outer surface 132 of the side portion 130, the pressed portion does not deform locally, but the entire side portion 130 can swing while maintaining the shape of the side portion 130. The side portion 130 has a higher rigidity than the flange portion 120 so as to maintain its shape. Here, the distance between the inner surface 131 and the outer surface 132 of the side portion 130 is the thickness dimension Ts. Since the inner surface 131 and the outer surface 132 are not parallel, the thickness dimension Ts of the side portion 130 is larger on the upper side and smaller on the lower side. In FIG. 3B, the thickness dimension of the upper part of the side portion 130 is Ts1, and the thickness dimension of the lower part is Ts2. The thickness dimension Ts1 is the largest among the thickness dimensions Ts of the side portion 130. The thickness dimension Ts2 is the smallest among the thickness dimensions Ts of the side portion 130. Here, the thickness dimension Ts (Ts1, Ts2) of the side portion 130 is larger than the thickness dimension Tf of the flange portion 120. The rigidity of the side portion 130 can be improved by increasing the thickness dimension Ts of the side portion 130. Therefore, when a user presses the side portion 130, the side portion 130 side of the flange portion 120, which has a smaller thickness dimension, is deformed, and the entire side portion 130 swings.

[0034] Moreover, the side portion 130 and the flange portion 120 are configured so that the flange portion 120 can easily separate from the installation surface when the user presses the side portion 130. Specifically, the contact surface 123 of the flange portion 120 is located below the side portion 130, more specifically, directly below the side portion 130. The contact surface 123 is formed large. The width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123 is larger than the thickness dimension Ts2 of the side portion 130. It is preferable that the width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123 is, for example, 1.0 to 1.5 times the thickness dimension Ts2 of the lower part of the side portion 130. In FIG. 3B, a virtual line L extending the inner surface 131 of the side portion 130 downward is shown. The virtual line L intersects with the contact surface 123. In other words, the contact surface 123 is formed so as to extend beyond the virtual line L on the inside. By forming the contact surface 123 large in this manner, it is possible to allow air to flow in from the outside to the underside of the flange portion 120 and the bottom portion 110 all at once when the contact surface 123 is pulled away from the installation surface.

[0035] Next, the operation of the installation fixture 100 configured as described above when the installation fixture 100 is fixed to an installation surface will be described. Here, it is assumed that wet tissues in the initial state (a state in which not even one sheet has been used) are stored in the container body 10. First, the user holds the container side portion 12 of the container body 10 with his / her hand. At this time, since no external force is being applied to the installation fixture 100, the installation fixture 100 is in the state shown in Figures 3A and 3B described above. Next, the user places the installation fixture 100 on the installation surface with the installation fixture 100 facing the installation surface.

[0036] At this time, since the contact surface 123 is located at the lower end of the flange portion 120, the contact surface 123 first comes into contact with the installation surface. Since the contact surface 123 is a substantially horizontal surface, the contact surface 123 can immediately come into surface contact with the installation surface. In this way, the contact surface 123 can come into surface contact with the installation surface immediately after the installation fixture 100 comes into contact with the installation surface. Since the flange portion 120 has flexibility, the flange portion 120 receives the weight of the container body 10 and bends at the bottom portion 110 side and the side portion 130 side, so that the lower inclined surface 122 approaches the installation surface. Next, the user presses the container body 10 against the installation surface, so that the lower inclined surface 122 comes into contact with the installation surface. Here, the deformability of the flange portion 120 is set so that the force with which the user presses the container body 10 against the installation surface can be as light as the force used when pressing the lid portion 11 to release the engagement by the latch structure described above. Therefore, even if the user does not press the container body 10 against the installation surface, the action of lightly pressing the lid portion 11 downward to release the engagement by the latch structure can also serve as the action of pressing the container body 10 against the installation surface.

[0037] However, the flange portion 120 may be configured so that the bottom 110 side and the side 130 side bend when the flange portion 120 receives the weight of the container body 10 without the user pressing the container body 10 against the installation surface, causing the lower inclined surface 122 to come into surface contact with the installation surface. In this case, even if the user releases the container side portion 12 immediately after placing the installation fixture 100 on the installation surface, the lower inclined surface 122 can come into surface contact with the installation surface immediately after the contact surface 123 comes into surface contact with the installation surface.

[0038] In addition, since the flange portion 120 is continuous from the outer peripheral edge of the bottom portion 110, the bottom portion 110 moves downward toward the installation surface in conjunction with the bending of the flange portion 120, thereby coming into contact with the installation surface. That is, the space S surrounded by the bottom portion 110 and the lower inclined surface 122 disappears. Since the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 is a horizontal surface, the lower surface 112 can be brought into surface contact with the installation surface. When the bottom portion 110 moves downward, the air present in the space S is pushed out by the bottom portion 110, and is discharged to the outside of the installation fixture 100 via a part between the flange portion 120 and the installation surface. In addition, when the bottom portion 110 moves downward, the protrusion portion 16 of the container body 10 also moves downward in conjunction with the bottom portion 110. At this time, the protrusion portion 16 abuts against the upper inclined surface 121, thereby assisting in discharging the air in the space S.

[0039] Fig. 4A is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the installation fixture 100 is fixed to an installation surface, and Fig. 4B is an enlarged view of the part indicated by the two-dot chain line in Fig. 4A. 4A, the bottom 110 and the flange 120 are in surface contact with the installation surface, so the installation fixture 100 can stably fix the container body 10 to the installation surface. In addition, the contact surface 123 that first comes into surface contact with the installation surface is located on the tip side of the flange 120. Therefore, the contact surface 123 in surface contact can block air from flowing into the installation fixture 100 (below the bottom 110), so the installation fixture 100 can fix the container body 10 in a state where it is firmly adsorbed to the installation surface.

[0040] In addition, because container bottom 15 of container body 10 and bottom 110 of mounting fixture 100 face each other over a wide range in the horizontal direction, it is possible to suppress rattling between container body 10 and mounting fixture 100. By suppressing rattling between container body 10 and mounting fixture 100, container body 10 and wet tissue case 1 can be stably fixed to the mounting surface. In this way, by stably fixing the wet tissue case 1 to the installation surface, the user can easily pull out the wet tissues one by one from the container body 10. Furthermore, because the installation fixture 100 firmly fixes the container body 10 to the installation surface, it is possible to prevent the container body 10 itself from rising together with the wet tissues when pulling out the wet tissues one by one. Therefore, the user does not need to hold down the container body 10 with his or her hand to prevent the container body 10 itself from rising when pulling out the wet tissues one by one, which improves the ease of handling of the wet tissue case 1.

[0041] As described above, the gap dimension Gs between the upper end surface 133 of the side portion 130 and the upper surface 13b of the recess 13 is set to be larger than the height dimension Hs of the space S. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 4B, even if the container body 10 moves downward in conjunction with the movement of the bottom portion 110 downward, interference between the upper end surface 133 of the side portion 130 and the upper surface 13b of the recess 13 is prevented. In addition, since there is a gap between the upper end surface 133 of the side portion 130 and the upper surface 13b of the recess 13 that is the dimension Gs minus the dimension Hs, the user can press the side portion 130 without interfering with the upper surface 13b of the recess 13 when releasing the fixation.

[0042] Next, an operation of releasing the installation fixture 100 from the state in which it is fixed to the installation surface will be described. To release the fixation, the user presses the side portion 130 toward the center line O until the inner surface 131 comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface 13a of the recess 13. Fig. 5A is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which one side (the right side) of side portion 130 across center line O is pressed. Fig. 5B and Fig. 5C are enlarged views of the part shown by the two-dot chain line in Fig. 5A. Fig. 5B shows the state at the moment when side portion 130 is pressed, and Fig. 5C shows the state immediately after Fig. 5B.

[0043] When side portion 130 is pressed, side portion 130 does not deform locally, but the side portion 130 side of flange portion 120 deforms, causing side portion 130 to swing while maintaining the shape of side portion 130. When side portion 130 swings, an upward force acts on contact surface 123 located directly below side portion 130. 5B, the moment side portion 130 is pressed, contact surface 123, which is in surface contact with the installation surface, is pulled away from the installation surface. At this time, because the vertical length of side portion 130 is sufficiently long relative to the width dimension Wc of contact surface 123, even if the force applied by the user to press side portion 130 is light, a large force acts upward on contact surface 123. Therefore, the user can easily pull contact surface 123, which is in firm surface contact with the installation surface, away from the installation surface.

[0044] As described above, the width dimension Wc of the contact surface 123 is larger than the thickness dimension Ts2 of the side portion 130. Therefore, when the contact surface 123 is separated from the installation surface, air can flow in all at once from the outside through the gap between the large contact surface 123 and the installation surface, and also below the lower inclined surface 122 of the flange portion 120. 5C, as the contact surface 123 is pulled away from the installation surface, the lower inclined surface 122 is also pulled away from the installation surface. Therefore, air can flow between the lower inclined surface 122 and the installation surface.

[0045] Next, the user lifts the installation fixture 100 upward immediately after pressing the side portion 130 or while pressing the side portion 130 . FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing the installation fixture 100 in a lifted state. When a user attempts to lift the installation fixture 100, the air that has already flowed between the flange portion 120 and the installation surface also flows into the underside of the lower surface 112 of the bottom portion 110 all at once. Therefore, the bottom portion 110 is pulled away from the installation surface, and the installation fixture 100 can be released from its fixation to the installation surface. In this way, by releasing the fixation of the installation fixture 100, the container body 10 to which the installation fixture 100 is attached can be pulled away from the installation surface. Therefore, the user can easily release the wet tissue case 1 from its fixed state and then move it.

[0046] It should be noted that the method for releasing the fixing of the installation fixture 100 is not limited to pressing one of the side portions 130 that sandwich the center line O of the installation fixture 100. For example, the user may press both one side and the other side of side portion 130 that are sandwiched between center line O of installation fixture 100. Specifically, the user presses one side of side portion 130 that is sandwiched between center line O with the thumb, as if gripping installation fixture 100, and presses the other side with at least one finger from the index finger to the little finger. By pressing side portion 130 in this manner as if gripping installation fixture 100, the operation of releasing the fixation of installation fixture 100 and the operation of lifting wet tissue case 1 can be performed simultaneously, and the handling of wet tissue case 1 can be improved.

[0047] As described above, according to this embodiment, the flange portion 120 is formed so that its thickness dimension is smaller than the thickness dimension of the side portion 130. Therefore, the flange portion 120 easily flexes to come into surface contact with the installation surface, so that the installation fixture 100 can stably fix the container body 10 to the installation surface. Furthermore, the flange portion 120 has a lower inclined surface 122 that continues from the outer peripheral edge of the bottom portion 110, and a contact surface 123 that continues from the lower inclined surface 122 and comes into surface contact with the installation surface. Therefore, since the contact surface 123 comes into surface contact with the installation surface, the installation fixture 100 can stably fix the container body 10 to the installation surface. Furthermore, contact surface 123 is located directly below side portion 130. Therefore, when a user presses side portion 130 to cause side portion 130 to swing, an upward force acts on contact surface 123 located directly below side portion 130, and therefore contact surface 123, which is in firm surface contact with the installation surface, can be easily pulled away from the installation surface.

[0048] In the above embodiment, the operation of the installation fixture 100 for the container body 10 containing wet tissues in the initial state has been described, but the operation of the installation fixture 100 for the container body 10 not containing wet tissues is similar. However, the deformability of the flange portion 120 may be set so that in the case of the container body 10 containing wet tissues in the initial state, the lower inclined surface 122 of the flange portion 120 comes into contact with the installation surface by receiving the weight of the container body 10 without the user pressing the container body 10 against the installation surface, and in the case of the container body 10 not containing wet tissues, the lower inclined surface 122 does not come into contact with the installation surface even when the weight of the container body 10 is received, but the lower inclined surface 122 of the flange portion 120 comes into contact with the installation surface by the user pressing the container body 10 against the installation surface.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the container body 10 and the lid 11 are engaged with each other by a latch structure that alternately repeats engagement and release each time the lid 11 is pressed down from above, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the container body 10 and the lid 11 may be engaged with each other via a mechanical joining means such as a snap fit, and may be configured so that the engagement is achieved by pressing the lid 11 down from above, and the engagement is released by pulling the lid 11 up.

[0050] <Second embodiment> In the first embodiment, the case where the installed object is a wet tissue case 1 has been described, but in the present embodiment, the case where the installed object is a tissue case 2 will be described. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing an example of the structure of the tissue case 2. As shown in FIG. The tissue case 2 is in the shape of a rectangular column (or a roughly rectangular parallelepiped). In each of the figures including Fig. 7, the center of the rectangular column of the tissue case 2 is illustrated as a center line O. The tissue case 2 comprises a container body 20 and an installation fixture 200.

[0051] The container body 20 contains folded and stacked tissues. The container body 20 is prismatic and has a space inside to contain the tissues. The container body 20 has a slit 21 on the top surface for pulling out the tissues one by one toward the top.

[0052] The installation fixture 200 is fixed to the installation surface. By attaching the installation fixture 200 to the container body 20, the entire tissue case 2 is fixed to the installation surface. The installation fixture 200 is located at the lower end of the container body 20.

[0053] FIG. 8A is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the installation fixture 200 as viewed from above, and FIG. 8B is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the installation fixture 200 as viewed from below. The installation fixture 200 of this embodiment is a flattened rectangular tube with a bottom. Therefore, the installation fixture 200 is substantially rectangular in plan and bottom views. The installation fixture 200 can be molded using the same material and molding method as in the first embodiment. The installation fixture 200 is similar to the installation fixture 100 of the first embodiment, and has a bottom 110, a flange 120, and a side 130. As shown in FIG. 8A, a double-sided tape 201 for joining to the container body 20 is attached to the upper surface 111 of the bottom 110.

[0054] The installation fixture 200 is not strictly a square tube. Specifically, in a plan view or bottom view, the corners where adjacent sides of the outline of the installation fixture 200 are connected are gently rounded. Furthermore, in a plan view or bottom view, the four sides (a pair of long sides and a pair of short sides) of the outline of the flange portion 120 of the installation fixture 200 are not straight lines but are curved convexly in a direction away from the center line O (toward the outside). By making the outline of the installation fixture 200 curved in this way, the corners can be made more gentle (the radius of curvature of the corners can be increased). Therefore, even the flange portion 120 located at the corners can be easily brought into surface contact with the installation surface, and the container body 20 can be stably fixed to the installation surface.

[0055] A cross-sectional view of the installation fixture 200 taken along line II-II in the vertical direction passing through the center line O in Fig. 7 and viewed from the direction of the arrow can be configured similarly to Figs. 3A and 3B described for the installation fixture 100 of the first embodiment. A cross-sectional view showing the state in which the installation fixture 200 is fixed to the installation surface can be configured similarly to Figs. 4A and 4B. Therefore, the installation fixture 200 can also stably fix the container body 20 to the installation surface.

[0056] Also, the cross-sectional view showing the state in which the installation fixture 200 is released can be configured similarly to Figs. 5A to 7. Therefore, the installation fixture 200 can also be easily removed from the installation surface. Note that, not limited to line II-II in Fig. 7, cross-sectional views cut in the up-down direction passing through the center line O have substantially the same configuration, except for the horizontal width dimension of the bottom 110.

[0057] <Third embodiment> In this embodiment, a case where the installed object is a kitchen paper holder 3 will be described. FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the kitchen paper holder 3. FIG. 10 is a partial cross-sectional view cut vertically along line III-III passing through center line O in FIG. 9 and seen from the direction of the arrow. Note that in each drawing including FIG. 9, the center of the kitchen paper holder 3 is illustrated as center line O. Also, FIG. 10 shows a state in which the installation fixture 300 is not fixed to the installation surface and is separated from the installation surface. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional view is not limited to line III-III, and the cross-sectional view cut vertically passing through center line O and rolling elements 41 described later is substantially the same as FIG. 10.

[0058] The kitchen paper holder 3 is a device for holding kitchen paper P wound in a roll around a cylindrical core. The kitchen paper holder 3 includes a holder body 30 and a rotation support part 40 as installation objects, and an installation fixture 300.

[0059] The holder body 30 holds the kitchen paper P. The holder body 30 is rotatable about a center line O relative to the rotation support part 40. The holder body 30 also has a shaft part 31 and a placement part .

[0060] The shaft portion 31 is shaped like a long shaft along the vertical direction and is inserted into a hole in the core of the kitchen paper P. The shaft portion 31 also has holding portions 32 at positions away from the top and bottom ends in the vertical direction. The holding portion 32 is located below the center of the shaft portion 31 in the vertical direction. The holding portion 32 is formed in a truncated cone shape that is gradually positioned outward as it goes downward. The holding portion 32 is made of a flexible material, specifically a material that is softer than the placement portion 35. Furthermore, the holding portion 32 has multiple slits formed from the bottom end to the top side, and the holding pieces 33a to 33c are between the slits. The kitchen paper P is lowered from the top of the shaft portion 31 to insert the shaft portion 31 into the hole in the core, so that the holding pieces 33a to 33c come into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the hole in the core. When the holding pieces 33a-33c come into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the hole in the core, the holding pieces 33a-33c each bend inwards and bias the inner circumferential surface of the hole in the core with a reaction force that tries to return. In this way, the holding part 32 biases the core of the kitchen paper P, so that the shaft part 31 can hold the kitchen paper P while inserted in the hole in the core of the kitchen paper P. The entire kitchen paper P can be removed from the shaft part 31 by pulling the entire kitchen paper P upwards with a force greater than the biasing force of the holding part 32.

[0061] The mounting portion 35 is substantially disk-shaped, and the upper and lower surfaces are formed to be substantially flat. The mounting portion 35 is made of a synthetic resin harder than the installation fixture 300, but is not particularly limited, and may be made of metal, wood, or the like. The upper surface of the mounting portion 35 is placed on or faces the end surface of the kitchen paper P held by the shaft portion 31. On the other hand, the lower surface of the mounting portion 35 is formed with an annular groove portion 36 centered on the center line O. A plurality of rolling elements 41, which will be described later, are in contact with the groove portion 36. The mounting portion 35 and the shaft portion 31 are joined to be integral with each other at the lower end of the shaft portion 31.

[0062] The rotation support part 40 supports the holder body 30 so that it can rotate around the center line O. The rotation support part 40 is flat and dish-shaped, with an open upper side and a substantially flat lower surface. The rotation support part 40 is made of a synthetic resin harder than the installation fixture 300, but is not particularly limited thereto, and may be made of metal, wood, or the like. The rotation support part 40 is located below the mounting part 35 and overlaps with the mounting part 35 in a plan view. The rotation support part 40 has a plurality of spherical rolling elements 41 that contact the groove part 36 formed on the lower surface of the mounting part 35. The plurality of rolling elements 41 are arranged at intervals on a circumference centered on the center line O. The rolling elements 41 are biased toward the groove part 36 by a coil spring 42 as a biasing means, and can roll or slide within the groove part 36. Therefore, when the holder body 30 rotates relative to the rotation support part 40, the rolling body 41 rolls or slides within the groove part 36, thereby reducing friction between the holder body 30 and the rotation support part 40. The rotation support part 40 and the holder body 30 are rotatably connected to the rotation support part 40 by screwing a nut 38 into the central tubular part 43 of the rotation support part 40 onto a screw member 37 arranged along the center line O within the shaft part 31.

[0063] The installation fixture 300 is fixed to the installation surface. By attaching the installation fixture 300 to the rotation support part 40, the entire kitchen paper holder 3 is fixed to the installation surface. The installation fixture 300 of this embodiment is substantially cylindrical with a bottom and flat. The installation fixture 300 can be molded using the same material and molding method as the first embodiment. The installation fixture 300 is similar to the installation fixture 100 of the first embodiment, and has a bottom 110A, a flange part 120, and a side part 130.

[0064] The installation fixture 300 of this embodiment is coupled to the rotation support part 40 via a plate member 50 between the rotation support part 40 and the bottom part 110A. The plate member 50 is made of a synthetic resin harder than the installation fixture 300, but is not particularly limited thereto, and may be made of metal, wood, or the like. The thickness dimension (plate thickness) of the plate member 50 is approximately the same as the thickness dimension of the bottom part 110A of the installation fixture 300, but is not particularly limited thereto.

[0065] To attach the installation fixture 300 to the rotation support part 40, the installation fixture 300 is first joined to the plate member 50, and then the plate member 50 is fitted into the recess 45 formed in the bottom part 44 of the rotation support part 40 to join them. For example, the molded plate member 50 is set in a mold and the installation fixture 300 is injection molded, so that the installation fixture 300 can be joined to the plate member 50 in advance. On the other hand, the plate member 50 and the rotation support part 40 may be joined via an adhesive means such as an adhesive or double-sided tape, or via a mechanical joining means such as a snap fit. In this embodiment, the plate member 50 has a plurality of approximately hook-shaped protrusions 51 protruding upward, and the rotation support part 40 has a plurality of openings 46 in the bottom part 44 through which the protrusions 51 are inserted. The plate member 50 and the rotation support part 40 can be joined by inserting the protrusions 51 into the openings 46 and engaging with the opening edges. In this way, by connecting the installation fixture 300 to the rotation support part 40 via the plate member 50, the installation fixture 300 can be easily connected to the rotation support part 40 even if the installation fixture 300 is made of a material that is difficult to connect to the rotation support part 40.

[0066] In the kitchen paper holder 3 of this embodiment, the installation fixture 300 firmly fixes the holder body 30 and the rotation support part 40 to the installation surface, so that the holder body 30 and the rotation support part 40 do not move together with the kitchen paper P when the leading end of the kitchen paper P is pulled out. Therefore, the user does not need to hold down the rotation support part 40 with his or her hand when pulling out the kitchen paper P, improving the ease of handling of the kitchen paper holder 3. In addition, because the holder body 30 can rotate around the center line O relative to the rotation support part 40, the user can easily pull out the kitchen paper P. The rotation support part 40 may be omitted and the installation fixture 300 may be attached to the mounting part 35. The shaft part 31 may be configured to be rotatable about the center line O with respect to the mounting part 35. Alternatively, the holding part 32 may be omitted and the core of the kitchen paper P may be configured to be rotatable with respect to the shaft part 31.

[0067] <Fourth embodiment> In this embodiment, the object to be installed is a wet tissue case, but the bottom 110B of the installation fixture 400 is different from the bottom 110 of the installation fixture 100 of the first embodiment. 11 is a partial cross-sectional view taken along line II passing through the center line O of FIG. 1 in the vertical direction and seen from the direction of the arrow, similar to FIG. 3A.

[0068] The installation fixture 400 is coupled to the container bottom 15 via a plate member 60 between the container bottom 15 and the bottom 110B. The plate member 60 is made of a synthetic resin harder than the installation fixture 400, but is not particularly limited thereto, and may be made of metal, wood, or the like. The thickness dimension (plate thickness) of the plate member 60 is smaller than the thickness dimension of the bottom 110B of the installation fixture 400, but is not particularly limited thereto.

[0069] To attach the installation fixture 400 to the container bottom 15, the installation fixture 400 is first connected to the plate member 60, and then fitted into the space surrounded by the protrusion 16 of the container body 10 and the container bottom 15. For example, the installation fixture 400 can be connected to the plate member 60 in advance by setting the molded plate member 60 in a mold and injection molding the installation fixture 400. On the other hand, the plate member 60 and the container bottom 15 can be connected to each other via an adhesive means such as an adhesive or double-sided tape, or via a mechanical joining means such as a snap fit. As a mechanical joining means, for example, a protrusion can be formed on the inner surface of the protrusion 16, a recess can be formed on the outer surface of the plate member 60, and the protrusion of the protrusion 16 can be engaged with the recess of the plate member 60, thereby joining the installation fixture 400 to the container bottom 15 via the plate member 60. In this way, by connecting the installation fixture 400 to the container bottom 15 via the plate member 60, the installation fixture 400 can be easily connected to the container bottom 15 even if the installation fixture 400 is made of a material that is difficult to connect to the container bottom 15.

[0070] While the present invention has been described above using the above-mentioned embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and modifications and the like are possible within the scope of the present invention, and part of the configuration of each embodiment may be combined with other embodiments.

[0071] In the above-described embodiment, the installation fixture 100, 200, 300, 400 has the side portion 130 over the entire circumference, but this is not limited to the above, and the installation fixture 100, 200, 300, 400 may have the side portion 130 intermittently rather than over the entire circumference. In this case, the installation fixture 100, 200, 300, 400 preferably has at least a pair of side portions 130 at positions horizontally spaced apart from each other across the center line O. However, the installation fixture 100, 200, 300, 400 may have the side portion 130 only at one location rather than intermittently.

[0072] In the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which the side portion 130 does not protrude from the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12, but this is not limited to the above case, and the side portion 130 may protrude from the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12. When the side portion 130 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12, a step is formed between the outer peripheral surface of the side portion 130 and the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12. In this case, it is preferable that the dimension of the step between the outer peripheral surface of the side portion 130 and the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12 (the horizontal distance between the outer peripheral surface of the side portion 130 and the outer peripheral surface of the container side portion 12) is smaller than the thickness dimension Ts1 of the side portion 130.

[0073] In the above embodiment, the container bottom 15 of the container body 10 and the bottom 110 of the installation fixture 100 are separate bodies, but the present invention is not limited to this case, and the container bottom 15 and the bottom 110 may be integrally formed. In this case, the container body 10 and the installation fixture 100 can be collectively referred to as the installation fixture. The combined dimension of the container bottom 15 and the bottom 110 can be defined as the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom. Alternatively, the combined dimension of the plate member 50 and the bottom 110A, or the combined dimension of the plate member 60 and the bottom 110B can be defined as the thickness dimension Tb of the bottom.

[0074] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the installation tool is described as a wet tissue case, a tissue case, or a kitchen paper holder, but the present invention is not limited to this case and may be any object fixed to the installation surface. For example, the installation tool may be a cooking tool, a cleaning tool, a stationery item, a daily necessities, etc. In this case, the installation tool 100, 200, 300, 400 can be applied by positioning it on any surface of the cooking tool body, the cleaning tool body, the stationery item body, or the daily necessities body. As in the above-mentioned embodiment, these installation tools can also be easily fixed to and released from the installation surface.
