[0020] The diffusion source container according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a main body 1 and a cover 100, as shown in FIG.

[0021] The main body 1 is designed to accommodate an aromatic substance as a diffusion source inside.

[0022] FIG. 2 shows the main body 1 with the cover 100 attached.

[0023] The main body 1 is a cylindrical body having a top surface 2, a bottom surface 3 and a peripheral side surface 4, and both openings of which are closed.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 3, the main body 1 has a shape in which a part of an arc is cut off from an arch shape by a straight line in a plan view.

[0025] For convenience of explanation, the side peripheral surface 4 of the main body 1 will be described as the front side where it forms an arc of the bow in a plan view, and the back side where it forms the chord of the bow in a plan view.

[0026] An opening 5 is formed in the center of the front side of the side circumferential surface 4.

[0027] In the side peripheral surface 4, two slits 6, 6 for attaching a cover are formed on the rear side.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 3, the cover 100 has a shape in which a part of the string is cut off from an arch shape in a plan view.

[0029] When the cover 100 is attached to the main body 1, the cover 100 is attached to the rear side of the side peripheral surface 4. and At the overlapping portion, insertion pieces 101, 101 that can be inserted into the cover attachment slits 6, 6, respectively, are provided.

[0030] The cover 100 is attached to the side surface 4 of the main body 1 by inserting the insertion pieces 101, 101 of the cover 100 into the cover attachment slits 6, 6 on the side surface 4 of the main body 1, respectively.

[0031] The cover 100 can be removed from the side surface 4 of the main body 1 by pulling out the insertion pieces 101, 101 from the cover attachment slits 6, 6, respectively.

[0032] With the cover 100 attached to the main body 1, when the diffusion source container is placed with the bottom side of the main body 1 on a flat surface, the leg portions 102, 102 of the cover 100 come into contact with the flat surface.

[0033] When the diffusion source container is placed with the bottom side of the main body 1 on a plane with the cover 100 attached to the main body 1, a recessed portion 103 provided between the leg portions 102, 102 of the cover 100 is spaced apart from the plane.

[0034] 2 and 3, when the cover 100 is attached to the main body 1, the side circumferential surface 4 corresponding to the portion where a portion of the arc is cut out of the arch of the main body 1 does not come into contact with the cover 100. In other words, in plan view, a gap is formed between the side circumferential surface 4 corresponding to the portion where a portion of the arc is cut out of the arch of the main body 1 and the cover 100.

[0035] As a result, the opening 5, the gap between the main body 1 and the cover 100, and the recessed portion 103 of the cover 100 serve as passages for the substance released from the diffusion source housed in the diffusion source container.

[0036] The body 1 is made by assembling a single paper blank 10 shown in FIG.

[0037] A single paper blank 10 shown in FIG. 5 has a flap portion 11, a bottom surface portion 12, a first peripheral side surface portion 13, a top surface portion 14, and a second peripheral side surface portion 15, which are successive in this order.

[0038] The dashed dotted lines in FIG. 5 are fold lines.

[0039] An opening 5 is provided in the center of the first side peripheral surface portion 13.

[0040] Four slits 7, each consisting of a fold line and a notch, are provided in the first side peripheral surface portion 13. By pressing in the area surrounded by the fold lines and the notches, the slits 7 form gaps that allow hooks 8 of the second side peripheral surface portion 15, which will be described later, to be caught in the slits 7.

[0041] 5, two hooks 8 are provided on each of the left and right ends of the second side peripheral surface portion 15. Each hook 8 is composed of a semicircular notch 81, fold lines 82, 82 extending from both ends of the notch 81, and a knob portion 83 surrounded by an arc that protrudes outward from the fold lines 82, 82.

[0042] Grip the grip portion 83 and bend it along the fold lines 82, 82. This makes it possible to raise the tip of the slit 81 in a direction that makes it easier to push the area surrounded by the fold line and the slit of the first side peripheral surface portion 13 toward the inside of the main body 1.

[0043] Between the fold lines 15a and 15b of the second side peripheral surface portion 15, there are provided slits 6, 6 for attaching the cover.

[0044] The procedure for assembling the blank 10 of FIG. 5 will now be described.

[0045] The fold line between the overlap portion 11 and the bottom surface portion 12, the fold line between the bottom surface portion 12 and the first side peripheral surface portion 13, the fold line between the first side peripheral surface portion 13 and the top surface portion 14, and the fold line between the top surface portion 14 and the second side peripheral surface portion 15 are mountain-folded.

[0046] Next, the overlap portion 11 is adhered to the inner surface of the second side peripheral surface portion 15. At both left and right ends of the first side peripheral surface portion 13 in FIG. 2, the portions beyond the fold lines 13a and 13b respectively become insertion pieces 16 and 17. The first side peripheral surface portion 13 is bent so that the fold lines 13a and 13b of the first side peripheral surface portion 13 approach the fold lines 15a and 15b of the second side peripheral surface portion 15, respectively, so that the insertion pieces 16 and 17 abut against the inner surface of the second side peripheral surface portion 15.

[0047] Next, the portion of second side peripheral surface portion 15 beyond fold lines 15a and 15b in Figure 2 is bent so that it overlaps along the bent first side peripheral surface 13. The four hooks 8 of second side peripheral surface portion 15 are hooked into the slits 7 of first side peripheral surface portion 13 at corresponding positions. This allows main body 1 to be assembled into a cylindrical body in which bottom surface portion 12 and top surface portion 14 are positioned opposite each other, first side peripheral surface portion 13 and second side peripheral surface portion 15 form side peripheral surface 4, and openings at both ends are closed by bottom surface portion 12 and top surface portion 14, respectively.

[0048] The cover 100 is made by assembling a single paper blank as shown in FIG.

[0049] The dashed dotted lines in FIG. 6 are fold lines.

[0050] The paper blank of the cover 100 is made up of a front side portion 100A and rear side portions 100B, 100B extending continuously to the left and right of the front side portion 100A in FIG.

[0051] The leg portions 102, 102 and the recessed portion 103 are formed on the lower side of the front side portion 100A in FIG.

[0052] The rear side portions 100B, 100B are formed with notches that will become the insertion pieces 101, 101 described above.

[0053] The procedure for assembling the paper blank for cover 100 of FIG. 6 will now be described.

[0054] The paper blank of the cover 100 is folded along crease lines 104, 104, with crease lines 104a, 104b brought close to each other so that the curved front portion is maintained. This allows the cover 100 to be easily attached to the main body 1.

[0055] A front side portion 100A of the cover 100 is designed so that information such as advertisements can be printed and displayed.

[0056] Furthermore, information may be printed on both the front and back sides of the cover 100, making the cover 100 reversible.
