Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a replaceable exterior part for a discharge container and a discharge product including the exterior part. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 discloses an exterior part for a dispensing container that can be removed from the dispensing container with a simple operation after use. This exterior part can be removed from the dispensing container by rotating an operating member that is rotatably attached to a cover member.

[0003] Patent Document 2 discloses a tubular attachment member including a tubular base having legs engaged with a container body and a tubular operation body screwed onto the outer periphery of the tubular base. This tubular attachment member is fixed to the container body by the tubular operation body screwed onto the tubular base pressing down on the elastic force that causes the legs to move away from the container body. Therefore, when the tubular operation body is removed from the tubular base, the engagement of the legs with the container body is released, and the tubular base can be removed from the container body.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-159031 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-247470 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The outer packaging of Patent Document 1 is provided with a mark to indicate whether the outer packaging is in a state where it can be removed from the discharge container, but there was a problem in that it was difficult to tell whether it was in a state where it could be removed.

[0006] In the cylindrical mounting member of Patent Document 2, the cylindrical operation body must be rotated many times in the unscrewing direction to be removed from the cylindrical base, which takes a long time to remove.

[0007] An object of the present invention is to provide an exterior part that can be removed in a short time and that allows the user to intuitively recognize that it is in a removable state. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The exterior product of the present invention comprises cover members 20, 20A attached to a discharge container 2, and operating members 30, 30A attached to the cover member 20 so as to be rotatable, the cover members 20, 20A comprising an elastic swinging portion 25 and an engaging protrusion 26 provided on the elastic swinging portion 25 and engaging with the discharge container 2, the operating members 30, 30A comprising an abutment portion 33 that swings the elastic swinging portion 25 by rotating the operating members 30, 30A, thereby disengaging the engaging protrusion 26 from the discharge container 2, and is characterized in that a guide groove 23a is provided in either the cover members 20, 20A or the operating members 30, 30A to guide the operating members 30, 30A so that they rise while rotating when the operating members 30, 30A are rotated.

[0009] In the above exterior accessory, it is preferable that the protrusion 32a, which is inserted into the guide groove 23a and moves within the guide groove 23a when the operating member 30, 30A is rotated, is provided on the side of the cover member 20, 20A and the operating member 30, 30A on which the guide groove 23a is not provided, and that a stopper (protrusion 23b, starting end 23a1, terminal end 23a2) that stops the progress of the protrusion 32a moving within the guide groove 23a at a predetermined position is provided on the side on which the guide groove 23a is provided.

[0010] Preferably, the exterior part further comprises a push button 40 connected to the stem 4a of the discharge container 2, and the cover members 20, 20A comprise an inner peripheral wall 23 that holds the push button 40 so that it can move up and down.

[0011] Furthermore, it is preferable that a mark (recessed groove 23c, groove portion 31a) be provided to guide protrusion 32a into guide groove 23a when operating member 30, 30A is attached to cover member 20, 20A.

[0012] The discharge product of the present invention is characterized by comprising a discharge container 2 and the exterior product 10, 10A. [Effects of the Invention]

[0013] When the operating member of the exterior part and the discharge product of the present invention is rotated, the operating member rises while rotating, so that it is intuitively clear that the exterior part is ready to be removed. Furthermore, when removing the exterior part from the discharge container, if the cover member is grasped, the elastic swinging part may be pressed, and the engaging protrusion may re-engage with the discharge container, but since the operating member rises and separates from the cover member, it becomes easier to grasp only the operating member. Furthermore, when removing the exterior part from the discharge container, it is not necessarily necessary to remove the operating member from the cover container, and it can be removed in a short time.

[0014] A protrusion that is inserted into the guide groove and moves within the guide groove when the operating member is rotated is provided on the side of the cover member and the operating member where the guide groove is not provided, and if a stopper that stops the progress of the protrusion moving within the guide groove at a predetermined position is provided on the side where the guide groove is provided, the progress of the protrusion is stopped by the stopper, so the protrusion will not come out of the guide groove and the engagement between the cover member and the operating member by the protrusion will be maintained.

[0015] If the exterior part further includes a push button connected to the stem of the discharge container, and the cover member includes an inner wall that holds the push button so that it can move up and down, the push button can be removed together when the cover member and the operating member are removed from the discharge container.

[0016] When attaching an operating member to a cover member, if a mark is provided to guide the protrusion into the guide groove, it becomes easier to insert the protrusion into the guide groove even if the protrusion or guide groove is provided on the inner surface of the cover member or operating member.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0018] Next, a discharge product 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in Figures 1A and 1B, the discharge product 1 includes a discharge container 2 and an exterior part 10 that is replaceably attached to the discharge container 2.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 1B, the discharge container 2 is a so-called aerosol can, which includes a container body 3 and an aerosol valve 4.

[0020] The container body 3 is made of a metal such as tinplate or aluminum, and as shown in Fig. 1A, comprises a bottom 3a, a substantially cylindrical body 3b rising from the outer peripheral edge of the bottom 3a, and a shoulder 3c extending upward from the upper end of the body 3b while gradually reducing in diameter. The upper end of the shoulder 3c is open, and a bead 3d (see Figs. 1B and 2) is provided to border this opening. The outer shape of the bead 3d is circular in plan view.

[0021] The aerosol valve 4 comprises a cylindrical stem 4a with a bottom having a stem hole on the side, a housing that accommodates the stem 4a so that it can move up and down, an elastic body (spring) that constantly urges the stem 4a upward, a stem rubber that closes the stem hole before the stem 4a is pushed down or tilted and deforms to open the stem hole when the stem 4a is pushed down or tilted, and a mounting cup 4b that secures the housing to the container body 3.

[0022] The aerosol valve 4 is fixed to the container body 3 by placing the outer peripheral edge 4b1 of the mounting cup 4b over the bead portion 3d of the container body 3 and crimping the bead portion 3d. During crimping, the multiple crimp claws are spread radially outward to push the inner peripheral wall of the mounting cup 4b radially outward, so that the planar shape of the inner peripheral wall becomes approximately polygonal, but the outer peripheral edge 4b1 of the mounting cup 4b maintains a circular shape in plan view. The outer peripheral edge 4b1 of the mounting cup 4b and the inner peripheral wall 23 of the cover member 20 (described later) of the exterior part 10 are located concentrically (axially) in plan view.

[0023] The discharge container 2 having the above-described structure is filled with the concentrate and a propellant for discharging the concentrate as contents.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 1A, the exterior part 10 includes a cover member 20 attached to the discharge container 2, an operating member 30 attached to the cover member 20 so as to be rotatable and axially movable, and a push button 40 for operating the aerosol valve 4 of the discharge container 2 to discharge.

[0025] 2 and 3A, the cover member 20 includes an outer peripheral wall 21, a rising wall 22 provided at the upper end of the outer peripheral wall 21, an inner peripheral wall 23 located inside the rising wall 22, and a connecting portion 24 connecting the rising wall 22 and the inner peripheral wall 23. The cover member 20 also includes an elastic swinging portion 25 that returns to its original position before swinging when swung, an engaging protrusion 26 that is provided on the elastic swinging portion 25 and engages with the discharge container 2 from the outer peripheral side, and a retracting portion 21c for avoiding contact with the swung elastic swinging portion 25.

[0026] The outer peripheral wall 21 forms the outer shape of the cover member 20 and is substantially cylindrical.

[0027] 3A, the upright wall 22 has a shape in which a cylinder is partially cut out in three places. In other words, it is composed of three arcs. A connecting portion 24 extends inward from each of the three arcs, and connects to and supports the approximately cylindrical inner peripheral wall 23.

[0028] The inner circumferential wall 23 functions as a base for attaching the operating member 30 to the cover member 20 so that the operating member 30 can be rotated and moved in the axial direction. Specifically, the inner circumferential wall 23 is provided with elongated guide grooves 23a into which protrusions 32a of the operating member 30, which will be described later, are inserted. The guide grooves 23a extend mainly in the circumferential direction of the inner circumferential wall 23. When three guide grooves 23a are provided at equal intervals as in this embodiment, the circumferential length is, for example, 1 / 3 or less of the circumferential length of the inner circumferential wall 23 in a plan view.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 3B, the guide groove 23a has a starting end 23a1, a terminal end 23a2, and a middle portion 23a3. Both the starting end 23a1 and the terminal end 23a2 are closed, preventing the protrusion 32a from advancing beyond them. The section from the starting end 23a1 to the middle portion 23a3 (the lower lateral groove) and the section from the middle portion 23a3 to the terminal end 23a2 (the upper lateral groove) are both flat. The terminal end 23a2 is located above the starting end 23a1. The middle portion 23a3 is inclined to connect the starting end 23a1 and the terminal end 23a2. The inclination angle with respect to the horizontal plane is, for example, 20 to 60 degrees. This state can also be said to be a spiral shape at least in part of the guide groove 23a. Therefore, when the operating member 30 is rotated, the operating member 30 is guided by the guide groove 23a and rises while rotating. That is, the operating member 30 is attached to the cover member 20 so as to be rotatable and movable up and down.

[0030] The outer peripheral surface of the inner peripheral wall 23 is provided with protrusions 23b as stoppers that stop the protrusions 32a, which move within the guide grooves 23a in the extension direction of the guide grooves 23a, at predetermined positions. When a part of the operating member 30 comes into contact with the protrusions 23b, further rotation of the operating member 30 is restricted. The protrusions 23b are provided at the start ends 23a1 and end ends 23a2 of the three guide grooves 23a, respectively. Therefore, when three guide grooves 23a are provided as in this embodiment, the rotatable range of the operating member 30 (rotation angle in a plan view) is, for example, 110° or less.

[0031] Furthermore, a recessed groove 23c is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the inner peripheral wall 23 as a mark for guiding the protrusion 32a into the guide groove 23a when attaching the operating member 30 to the cover member 20. The lower end of this recessed groove 23c is located above the guide groove 23a, and the protrusion 32a can be inserted into the recessed groove 23c from the open upper end portion of the recessed groove 23c and then pushed down as is, thereby inserting the protrusion 32a into the guide groove 23a.

[0032] The inner peripheral wall 23 also functions to hold the push button 40 so that it can move up and down. The inner peripheral surface of the inner peripheral wall 23 is provided with a vertical groove 23d into which an engaging piece 41a of the push button 40, which will be described later, is inserted.

[0033] The elastic swinging portion 25 is located in a cutout portion of the upright wall 22. The elastic swinging portion 25 includes a substantially plate-shaped main body portion 25a, an elastic rotation shaft 25b connecting both ends of the main body portion 25a to the upright wall 22, and an abutted portion 25c that abuts against a later-described abutting portion 33 of the operating member 30. The main body portion 25a almost fills the cutout portion of the upright wall 22. The outer surface of the main body portion 25a is provided with a protrusion 25d that abuts against a later-described outer support portion 34b of the operating member 30. The abutted portion 25c is rod-shaped and extends upward from the upper portion of the main body portion 25a. The horizontal cross section of the abutted portion 25c is approximately elliptical. The elastic rotation shaft 25b is located near the upper end of the main body portion 25a. When the abutted portion 25c is tilted, the elastic swinging portion 25 elastically swings around the elastic rotation shaft 25b. Therefore, it can be said that the elastic swinging portion 25 elastically rotates. The elastic rotation occurs when the elastic rotation shaft 25b is twisted around its axis.

[0034] The elasticity of the elastic swinging portion 25, which tends to return to its original position before swinging when swinging, is specific to the material of the cover member 20, particularly the elastic rotating shaft 25b. The cover member 20 is made of synthetic resin, particularly thermoplastic resin. Polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and polyacetal are preferred. However, elasticity may not be specific to the material, but may be due to shape, such as a spring. The engaging protrusion 26 is provided on the inner surface side of the main body portion 25a near the lower end. The retracting portion 21c is formed by providing a recess in a portion of the outer peripheral wall 21 that is located on the inner surface side and outside the main body portion 25a.

[0035] As shown in Figures 4A and 4B, the operating member 30 includes a substantially dome-shaped base 31, legs 32 for attaching the base 31 to the inner wall 23 of the cover member 20, a contact portion 33 provided on the inner surface of the base 31, and a support portion 34 for restricting the oscillation of the elastic oscillating portion 25 that is not caused by the contact portion 33.

[0036] The top surface of the base 31 is provided with a hole 31b through which the inner circumferential wall 23 of the cover member 20 and the shaft 41 of the push button 40 pass. A guide tube 35 extends downward from the edge of the hole 31b. The leg 32 also extends downward from the edge of the hole 31b. A protrusion 32a is provided at the lower end of the leg 32 to be inserted into the guide groove 23a of the inner circumferential wall 23. The lower surface of the protrusion 32a is inclined to make it easier to overcome the partition 23e (see FIG. 3A ) that separates the recessed groove 23c and the guide groove 23a. By inserting the protrusion 32a into the guide groove 23a of the inner circumferential wall 23, the operating member 30 is attached to the cover member 20 so that it can be rotated. The upper surface of the protrusion 32a is approximately horizontal and does not have an inclination to make it easier to overcome the partition 23e. Furthermore, there is no open portion at the outer edge of the guide groove 23a, and it is closed in an annular shape. Therefore, the protrusion 32a does not easily come off the guide groove 23a.

[0037] The abutment portions 33 are provided in accordance with the number of elastic swinging portions 25. In the drawing, three of each are provided. Note that three of each of the guide grooves 23a, protrusions 23b (stoppers), and recessed grooves 23c (markers) are also provided in accordance with the number of elastic swinging portions 25. The inner peripheral side of the abutment portion 33 forms an inclined surface 33a that is inclined in the circumferential direction. This inclined surface 33a is intended to gradually tilt the abutted portion 25c inward (diametrically inward) according to the amount of rotation in the rotation operation of the operating member 30.

[0038] The support portion 34 includes an inner support portion 34a extending downward from near the edge of the hole 31b and an outer support portion 34b provided on the inner circumferential surface of the base portion 31. When the operating member 30 is attached to the cover member 20, the elastic swinging portion 25 is located between the inner support portion 34a and the outer support portion 34b in a plan view. Specifically, the inner support portion 34a is located inside the abutted portion 25c, and the outer support portion 34b is located outside the main body portion 25a. The inner support portion 34a and the outer support portion 34b are provided at the same angle in a plan view. In other words, the inner support portion 34a is located on a line connecting the center of the base portion 31 and the outer support portion 34b in a plan view. On the other hand, the support portion 34 and the abutting portion 33 are not provided at the same angle in a plan view, but are offset in the circumferential direction (the direction of rotational operation). In other words, in a plan view, the contact portion 33 is not positioned on a line connecting the center of the base portion 31 and the outer support portion 34b.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2, the push button 40 comprises a shaft portion 41 and a nozzle portion 42. The outer diameter of the shaft portion 41 is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the inner peripheral wall 23 of the cover member 20, and the up and down movement of the push button 40 is guided by the inner peripheral wall 23. The outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 41 is provided with engagement pieces 41a that are inserted into the vertical grooves 23d. Three engagement pieces 41a are provided at equal intervals, matching the number of vertical grooves 23d. A step 23f is provided at the top of the vertical grooves 23d to prevent the engagement pieces 41a from slipping out upward from the vertical grooves 23d. The lower end of the shaft portion 41 of this push button 40 is attached to the stem 4a. When the push button 40 is pressed downward, the aerosol valve 4 opens and the contents are dispensed from the tip of the nozzle portion 42.

[0040] Next, the attachment and detachment of the exterior part 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5A to 5C. When no vertical gap G is generated between the cover member 20 and the operating member 30, the engagement protrusion 26 engages with the outer peripheral edge 4b1 of the mounting cup 4b (see FIG. 2). In this fixed state, the elastic swinging part 25 does not swing or swings within a range that maintains the engaged state. Therefore, no or only a small load is applied to the elastic rotation shaft 25b, which can suppress deterioration of the elastic swinging part 25, particularly creep of the elastic rotation shaft 25b. Furthermore, in the fixed state, the inner support part 34a is positioned (preferably in abutment) inside the abutted part 25c, and the outer support part 34b is positioned (preferably in abutment) outside the protrusion 25d of the main body part 25a, restricting the swinging of the elastic swinging part 25 in a direction that disengages the engagement protrusion 26 from the discharge container 2. Therefore, the engaged state of the engagement protrusion 26 is stably maintained.

[0041] To remove the outer casing 10 from the discharge container 2, the operating member 30 is rotated. The rotation is performed by rotating the operating member 30 around the central axis N of the discharge product 1 (the central axis of the discharge container 2, the central axis of the cover member 20). For example, as shown in FIG. 5B, it is rotated counterclockwise. Note that even if an attempt is made to rotate it clockwise, the leg 32 comes into contact with the protrusion 23b on the starting end 23a1 side of the guide groove 23a, preventing it from being rotated. In short, the protrusion 23b functions as a stopper that prevents the operating member 30 from rotating excessively.

[0042] When the operating member 30 is rotated to a certain extent, the support portions 34a, 34b and the abutment portion 25c become misaligned, and the swing restriction effect of the support portions 34a, 34b is no longer obtained. Meanwhile, the abutment portion 33 abuts against the outer side of the abutment portion 25c, causing the abutment portion 25c to begin to tilt inward. When the abutment portion 25c tilts inward, the entire elastic swinging portion 25 swings like a seesaw around the elastic rotation shaft 25b as the center of rotation, and the main body portion 25a and the engaging protrusion 26 move outward (in the radially outward direction). Because the retraction portion 21c is provided, the outward movement of the main body portion 25a is not impeded by contact with the inner circumferential surface of the outer circumferential wall 21. Further rotation causes the engaging protrusion 26 to disengage from the discharge container 2. In short, by rotating the operating member 30, the abutment portion 33 swings the elastic swinging portion 25, and the engagement of the engaging protrusion 26 with the discharge container 2 is released. When the leg portion 32 comes into contact with the protrusion 23b on the terminal end portion 23a2 side of the guide groove 23a, it cannot be rotated further counterclockwise. In other words, the protrusion 32a does not come out of the guide groove 23a, and the engagement state between the cover member 20 and the operating member 30 by the protrusion 32a is maintained.

[0043] With the engagement of the engaging protrusions 26 with the discharge container 2 released, the outer casing 10 can be removed from the discharge container 2 by lifting the outer casing 10 upward (see FIG. 1B ). At this time, as described above, the cover member 20 and the operating member 30 are in an engaged state, and therefore are removed together. Furthermore, since the push button 40 is held by the inner circumferential wall 23 and is removed together with the cover member 20 and the operating member 30, it is inevitably pulled upward and removed from the stem 4a. This prevents the stem 4a from breaking when the push button 40 is removed from the stem 4a by turning it sideways. Furthermore, because the engagement of the engaging protrusions 26 with the discharge container 2 can be released by simply rotating the operating member 30 by, for example, 110°, the removal process can be completed in a shorter time than, for example, when the operating member 30 must be removed from the cover member 20.

[0044] 5A to 5C, when the operating member 30 is rotated, the protrusion 32a moves within the guide groove 23a in the extension direction of the guide groove 23a, but because the intermediate portion 23a3 of the guide groove 23a is inclined upward toward the terminal end portion 23a2, the operating member 30 rises while rotating. As a result, a vertical gap G is generated between the cover member 20 and the operating member 30, and when viewed from the outside, it is intuitively clear that a rotation operation has been performed, that is, that the engagement of the engaging protrusion 26 with the discharge container 2 has been released. Therefore, it is unlikely that a user will damage the outer package 10 when trying to remove it from the discharge container 2 even though the engaging protrusion 26 and the discharge container 2 are still engaged, and the removed outer package 10 can be reused multiple times. Furthermore, since the operating member 30 rises and moves away from the cover member 20, it becomes easier to grasp only the operating member 30, and when removing the exterior part 10 from the discharge container 2, it is possible to prevent problems such as grabbing the cover member 20 and pressing the elastic swinging part 25 via the outer wall 21, causing the engaging protrusion 26 to re-engage with the discharge container 2.

[0045] 5C, even if the operating member 30 is raised, the contact portion 33 continues to contact the contacted portion 25c. In other words, the oscillation of the elastic oscillating portion 25 caused by the contact portion 33 is maintained even if the operating member 30 is raised.

[0046] To attach the outer casing 10 to a new discharge container 2, the operation for removal is performed in reverse. That is, the outer casing 10, which is in a removable state, is placed on the new discharge container 2, and in this state, the operating member 30 is rotated in the direction opposite to the removal direction. When the abutting portion 33 is no longer in contact with the abutted portion 25c due to the reverse rotation operation, the elastic swinging portion 25 returns to its original position before being swung, and as a result, the engaging protrusion 26 engages with the discharge container 2, completing the attachment of the outer casing 10 to the new discharge container 2. The vertical gap G between the cover member 20 and the operating member 30 gradually becomes smaller as the operating member 30 rotates and descends when the reverse rotation operation is performed, and disappears when the engaging protrusion 26 engages with the discharge container 2.

[0047] Next, another exterior component will be described. In this exterior component 10A, as shown in Fig. 6A, a protrusion 32a is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the base 31 of the operating member 30A. The mark is a groove 31a provided on the outer circumferential surface of the base 31. The protrusion 32a is located behind the groove 31a. Also, as shown in Fig. 6B, a guide groove 23a is provided in the rising wall 22 of the cover member 20A.

[0048] When operating member 30A is pushed downward with groove portion 31a, which serves as a marker, positioned above guide groove 23a, protrusion 32a is inserted into guide groove 23a, and operating member 30A can be attached to cover member 20A. In this attached state, when operating member 30 is rotated, operating member 30 rises while rotating, and a vertical gap G is formed between operating member 30 and cover member 20A. Excessive rotation of operating member 30 is restricted by protrusion 32a abutting on starting end 23a1 and ending end 23a2 of guide groove 23a. In essence, starting end 23a1 and ending end 23a2 function as stoppers.

[0049] Other configurations are the same as those of exterior part 10 in Fig. 1. Therefore, the same reference numerals are used and detailed description will be omitted. Although not shown, elastic swinging part 25 in Fig. 6B is provided with engaging protrusion 26, for example, in the same way as in Fig. 3B.

[0050] Although the above describes an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be modified and embodied within the scope of the present invention. For example, the guide groove 23a may be provided on the operating member 30, 30A, and the protrusion 32a may be provided on the cover member 20, 20A. Specifically, the guide groove 23a may be provided on the guide tube portion 35, and the protrusion 32a may be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the inner peripheral wall 23. Alternatively, the guide groove 23a may be provided on the base portion 31, and the protrusion 32a may be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the upright wall 22. In these cases, the operating member 30, 30A rotates and rises due to the guide groove 23a. A stopper that stops the protrusion 32a moving through the guide groove 23a at a predetermined position is provided on the operating member 30, 30A in which the guide groove 23a is provided. The stopper may be the starting end 23a1 or the ending end 23a2 of the guide groove 23a, or a separate portion such as the protrusion 23b may be provided.
