Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a fragrance tester, and more specifically, to a fragrance tester and a method for manufacturing the same, which use materials that do not cause adverse environmental impacts such as pollution when disposed of, and which minimize difficulties in disposal after use. [Background technology]
[0002] Known fragrance testers are disclosed, for example, in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2. The fragrance container 1 described in Patent Document 1 comprises an elastic core member 40 capable of impregnating liquid fragrance, and a bag body 20 having an opening 30 that houses the core member 40 in an internal space and allows the gaseous components of the liquid fragrance to be released to the outside. This fragrance container 1 allows the user to pinch and press the fragrance container 1 from the outside of the outer casing 4 with their fingers. As a result, the fragrance contained within the bag 20 volatilizes, releasing a gaseous component containing the fragrance through the opening 30 and then through the opening 50 of the outer casing 4 to the outside. This allows the user to perceive the fragrance of the liquid fragrance.
[0003] Furthermore, in the fragrance tester shown in Figures 7(c) and 9(b) of Patent Document 2, the second sheet material 2 of the fragrance storage body is bonded to the fragrance storage body mounting portion 3b of the cardboard backing, and the first sheet material 1 having a cavity (recess) 1a containing the fragrance is sealed and bonded to the second sheet material 2, and a hole is formed in the fragrance storage body mounting portion 3b at a position corresponding to the cavity 1a of the first sheet material 2. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]
[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-92047 [Patent Document 2] Official Gazette No. 3144017 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0005] Incidentally, the core member 40 of the fragrance tester in Patent Document 1 is made of a porous material to serve as an elastic material and to have water absorption properties for impregnating with liquid fragrance, and a melamine sponge is given as an example. As the sheet material 22 that makes up the bag body 20, a sheet material is used in which the inner surfaces can be heat-sealed together, and for example, a sheet material can be used on the inner surface of the aluminum layer, and these materials are used to prevent the liquid fragrance impregnated in the core member 40 from leaking out. Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses that the fragrance tester preferably uses a plastic film as the first sheet material 1 and a soft, elastic, thin aluminum foil that is easy to puncture with a needle-like object as the second sheet material 2, and that the fragrance 1b stored in the recess 1a of the first sheet material 1 is ideally made by impregnating cotton, sponge, nonwoven fabric, etc. with fragrance.
[0006] However, the materials used in the testers described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 have the disadvantage of generating harmful substances that pollute the environment when disposed of after use, because they use aluminum foil, aluminum vapor-deposited foil, and petroleum-derived plastic materials.
[0007] [Purpose of the invention] This invention was devised in response to these inconveniences, and its purpose is to provide a fragrance tester and a method for manufacturing the same, which are constructed from optimally selected materials so that when the fragrance tester is disposed of as waste after use, it can easily decompose in the soil and does not generate harmful substances that pollute the environment like sponges when burned. Furthermore, instead of using sponge or other materials as an elastic component, easily disposable paper is used. By folding the paper, the repulsive force that tries to return it to its original flat position is generated and utilized as elastic force, thereby eliminating the disadvantages of using paper as an elastic component, which is not normally done. [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] Therefore, the present invention relates to a fragrance tester comprising a fragrance holder for holding fragrance and a bag-shaped container body capable of housing the fragrance holder inside, wherein the fragrance holder is made of a single sheet material, and the sheet material has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 The above-mentioned paper material is characterized by having a first sheet portion and a second sheet portion that are folded in half in directions facing each other. This configuration gives the fragrance holder material a resilient force to the paper sheet material. Furthermore, in the present invention, a third sheet portion may be extended and connected to the free end of either the first or second sheet portion, and the third sheet portion may be folded back to the inside or outside of the extended and connected sheet portion. Furthermore, the third sheet portion may be configured to have openings within its surface. Furthermore, one of the first and second sheet portions may be shorter than the other. This design utilizes the repulsive force that causes the second and third sheet sections to return to their original flat positions when folded, thereby providing elasticity. Furthermore, since the bag-like sheet material of the container itself is made of paper, the resulting fragrance tester can be designed to not generate contaminants when disposed of.
[0009] Furthermore, according to the present invention, the container body is made of a bag-type sheet material, and the bag-type sheet material has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 The following paper material is used, and the bag body sheet material includes a bag body front sheet portion and a bag body back sheet portion, and is characterized in that the relative surfaces of the bag body front sheet portion and the bag body back sheet portion have a treated surface on which a weldable gas barrier member is pressed. As a result, the container body is made of paper with a thickness that makes it easy to pinch and apply pressure with your fingertips, and the bag sheet material has a treated surface made of a gas barrier component, which helps maintain the gas barrier properties and aroma retention of the fragrance.
[0010] Furthermore, the present invention is A fragrance tester comprising a fragrance holder that holds fragrance and a bag-shaped container body capable of housing the fragrance holder inside, The fragrance holder is composed of a single sheet material, which is selected from plain paper, coated paper, and paper coated with a resin film. The sheet material may also have a first sheet portion and a second sheet portion that are folded in half in directions facing each other.
[0011] Furthermore, according to the present invention, in a method for manufacturing a fragrance tester comprising a fragrance holder for holding fragrance and a bag-shaped container body capable of housing the fragrance holder inside, the fragrance holder is composed of a single sheet material including a first sheet portion and a second sheet portion connected thereto, and the sheet material has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 The above is a paper product, comprising the steps of folding the first sheet portion and the second sheet portion, and before or after the folding step, the step of attaching the fragrance to the fragrance holder, and the container body having a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 The container is formed using the following paper bag sheet material, and the process involves sealing the outer edges of the front and back sheets of the bag sheet material by welding to form a bag, and before or after the process of forming the container body, the process involves storing the fragrance holder inside the container body. [Effects of the Invention]
[0012] The fragrance tester of the present invention uses paper for both the fragrance-holding sheet material and the container body (bag), and does not use petroleum-derived plastic materials such as aluminum foil, aluminum-metallized foil, and sponge. Furthermore, by using a material that suppresses the generation of harmful substances during disposal, such as a biodegradable plastic film, for the gas barrier member of the container body, the generation of harmful substances during disposal after use of the fragrance tester can be suppressed, thus avoiding environmental pollution.
[0013] In addition, by using paper of a predetermined basis weight for the sheet material of the fragrance holding body and folding it, a repulsive force that tries to return to the original planar position can be utilized as a repulsive force, and a necessary repulsive force that can function in the same way as an elastic member such as a sponge can be obtained. As a result, even if a material such as a sponge is not used for the elastic member and the impregnating member impregnated with the fragrance, a repulsive force (elastic force) necessary for fragrance release and restoration can be obtained as a fragrance tester.
[0014] By folding a predetermined paper in different dimensions for the sheet material, when the fragrance holding body is placed in the bag body, the center of the bag body is configured to bulge, and it becomes easier to apply a pressing force by sandwiching the container body with fingertips.
[0015] By folding a predetermined paper in different dimensions for the sheet material, when a pressing force is applied by sandwiching the container body with fingertips, the air flow generated inside the bag body passes through the gap generated by the dimensional difference of the fragrance holding body material and heads toward the discharge hole, so that the fragrance can be smoothly released.
[0016] By using paper for the container body (bag body) of the fragrance tester of the present invention, printing such as advertisements and content descriptions of the fragrance tester can be directly performed on the surface of the container body. Therefore, there is no need to prepare a separate member (printing cardboard, printing sticker, etc.) for performing the printing.
[0017] In addition, by using paper for the fragrance holding body and the container body (bag body), the raw materials can be simplified. As a result, cost reduction, simplification of the manufacturing process, and efficiency improvement during manufacturing can be achieved.

[Figure 7] A plan view showing a modified example of the container body (bag). [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0019] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In this specification, unless otherwise specified, terms indicating position or direction such as "up and down" and "left and right" refer to the state of the fragrance tester 10 shown in Figure 1 when viewed from the front in direction A, with the front side in direction A being the "front" and the back side being the "back." However, these terms are used to explain the structure of the present invention in an easy-to-understand manner and do not limit the shape or other configuration of the fragrance tester according to the present invention. Furthermore, although the sheet material S and bag sheet material E shown in Figures 1 to 7 are depicted with increased thickness for illustrative purposes to facilitate understanding of the invention, the actual product is made of thin paper, and the entire fragrance tester will be thinner and more flattened in side view than those shown in the figures. Furthermore, while the convex curvature of the bag's inner sheet portion E2 shown in Figures 1 and 2 is depicted as smaller for illustrative purposes, the actual product has a more pronounced convex curvature than shown in Figures 1 and 2.
[0020] As shown in Figure 1, the fragrance tester 10 is composed of a paper container body 14 having a roughly rectangular shape in which the vertical length is somewhat larger than the horizontal width when viewed from the front, and a paper fragrance holder 11 housed inside the container body 14.
[0021] As shown in Figure 3(A), the fragrance holder 11 is formed using a sheet material S made of a single sheet of ordinary paper extending in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the material of the sheet material S has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2The above is a paper product. The sheet material S has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 In the case of the following paper material, the rebound force is low, and even after releasing the pressure, it may be crushed and not return to its original planar position as shown in Figure 2. Note: Basis weight 260g / m² 2 The above method allows for obtaining a more suitable rebound force. As shown in Figure 3(A), the sheet material S consists of a first sheet portion S1, a second sheet portion S2 connected to the longitudinal lower end of the first sheet portion S1 via a fold line L1, and a third sheet portion S3 connected to the longitudinal lower end of the second sheet portion S2 via a fold line L2. Here, the second sheet portion S2 is shorter than the first sheet portion S1, and the third sheet portion S3 is shorter than the second sheet portion S2. As shown in Figures 2 and 3(B), the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2 are folded along the fold line L1 so as valley folds when viewed from the front, and the second sheet portion S2 and the third sheet portion S3 are folded along the fold line L2 so as mountain folds. In this way, the third sheet portion S3 is formed in a folded shape so that it is sandwiched between the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2.
[0022] As shown in Figure 2, when the fragrance holder 11 is stored inside the container body 14 in its folded shape, the repulsive force that causes the second sheet portion S2 and the third sheet portion S3 to return to their original planar position, i.e., to be a single plate-shaped sheet material S located on the same plane, is restricted by the front sheet portion E1 and the back sheet portion E2 of the bag. Furthermore, when the container body 14 is pinched with fingertips and pressure is applied, causing the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3 to contract and deform so that they are in contact with each other on their relative surfaces, and then the pressure is released (fingers are released), a repulsive force is generated that causes the fragrance holder 11 to return to the state shown in Figure 2, and this is utilized as elastic force.
[0023] In this embodiment, the lengths of the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3 of the sheet material S constituting the fragrance holder 11 are 50 mm, 30 mm, and 20 mm respectively, and the width is 30 mm. The lengths are set in relation to the size of the entire fragrance tester 10, that is, the dimensions of the container body 14 to be described later, but are not limited to these dimensions. Also, for the sheet material S, paper with a basis weight of 150 g / m 2 was used, but it is not limited to this basis weight. By configuring the lengths of the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3 to be different dimensions, when the sheet material S is sandwiched between fingertips and a pressing force is applied, the air containing the volatilized fragrance 13 inside the container body 14 passes through the space generated by the difference in the lengths of the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3, and can be configured to be smoothly discharged to the outside through the discharge hole 15. Note that the dimensions of the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3 are not limited to different dimensions, and two or three sheet portions may be created with the same dimensions.
[0024] The fragrance 13 is applied to the sheet material S by spraying or the like. A suitable amount of the fragrance is 0.1 to 0.15 g. This is because if it is less than 0.1 g, the fragrance will be insufficient, and an amount exceeding 0.15 g can be considered wasted. Also, it is preferable to apply the fragrance 13 at the position sandwiched between the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is applied to the first sheet portion S1 side. When the fragrance 13 is applied at this position, the second sheet portion S2 and the third sheet portion S3 move due to the pressing force, and a flow of air containing the volatilized fragrance 13 will occur.
[0025] Note that in addition to the ordinary paper described above, coated paper or paper coated with a resin film may be used for the sheet material S.
[0026] As shown in FIGS. 4(A) and (B), the container body 14 is made of a bag-shaped sheet material E. In this embodiment, the material of the bag-shaped sheet material is paper with a basis weight of 150 g / m 2 as follows. The bag-type sheet material E has a thickness of 150 g / m², which makes it easy to apply pressure by pinching it with your fingertips and to return it to its original flat position. 2 The following is preferable: Basis weight 150 g / m² 2 If the amount exceeds the aforementioned basis weight, it may hinder the fragrance holder 11, which is formed from paper of the aforementioned basis weight, from returning to its original planar position. Furthermore, the length of the outer sheet portion E1 and the inner sheet portion E2 of the bag body sheet material E is 60 mm in the longitudinal direction (up and down direction in Figure 4), and the width in the short direction (left and right direction) is 45 mm. The fragrance tester 10 in this invention can be formed in various sizes, but a length of 60-80 mm and a width of 45-60 mm are preferred, although it is not limited to these dimensions. The bag sheet material E has a basis weight of 150 g / m². 2 While paper was used, it is not limited to this basis weight.
[0027] Furthermore, the bag sheet material E consists of a front sheet portion E1 and a back sheet portion E2 of the same size. In order to prevent the fragrance contained in the fragrance holder stored inside the paper container body 14 from volatilizing from the bag sheet E, a treated surface is formed on the overlapping surfaces (opposite surfaces) of the front sheet portion E1 and the back sheet portion E2 by pressing a weldable gas barrier member 17 onto them.
[0028] The gas barrier component 17 referred to here can be exemplified by products that do not generate harmful substances when disposed of, such as "Shield Plus (registered trademark)" from Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd. or "GL BARRIER (registered trademark)" from TOPPAN Holdings Co., Ltd. Furthermore, the gas barrier members 17 prevent the volatilization of the fragrance, and by bringing the gas barrier members 17 into contact with each other and heat-sealing them, a structure can be created in which the fragrance stored inside the bag of the container body 14 does not leak out.
[0029] The release hole 15 is a fragrance release hole provided inside the container body 14, and the air containing the fragrance 13 that has evaporated from the container body 14 is released to the outside through the release hole 15. The release hole 15 is, for example, 1.5 mm in diameter.
[0030] The welded portions 16 are provided at the side edges of the four sides of the outer sheet portion E1 and the inner sheet portion E2 of the bag. When these welded portions 16 are welded (heat sealed) with a general-purpose heat sealer, the gas barrier member 17 is welded to form a hollow container body (bag) 14. Furthermore, it is desirable that the welded portion 16 be formed with a width of 2 to 5 mm.
[0031] Next, the manufacturing method of the fragrance tester 10 in this embodiment will be described. First, the fragrance holder 11 is formed. Using the sheet material S cut as shown in Figure 3, the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2 are folded at the folding line L1. This causes the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2 to overlap.
[0032] Next, at the fold line L2 position, the third sheet portion S3 is folded so that it is sandwiched between the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2. At this time, as shown in Figure 2, the tip of the third sheet portion S3 is inserted until it abuts against the first sheet portion S1. This generates a repulsive force that causes the first sheet portion S1 and the second sheet portion S2 to return to a straight line (original planar position) along the fold line L1, a similar repulsive force that causes the second sheet portion S2 and the third sheet portion S3 to return to a straight line along the fold line L3, and a force that causes the third sheet portion S3 to push back against the first sheet portion S1. These repulsive forces can be used as the elastic force of the fragrance holder 11, allowing the fragrance holder 11 to be used as an elastic body.
[0033] Next, the fragrance 13 is applied to the designated location on the sheet material S by spraying it with a sprayer or the like. The fragrance 13 can be applied at any time, and may even be applied before folding the sheet material S.
[0034] The container body 14 is formed before or after the formation of the fragrance holder 11. First, a gas barrier member 17 is pressed onto the entire surface of one side of the paper bag sheet material E to form a treated surface. As a result, the bag sheet material E will no longer release fragrance to the outside. Next, as shown in Figures 4(A) and 4(B), the outer sheet portion E1 and the inner sheet portion E2 of the bag are cut. Here, the bag surface sheet portion E1 is processed to create release holes 15. Alternatively, the release holes 15 may be created before cutting.
[0035] Next, the outer sheet portion E1 and the inner sheet portion E2 of the bag are overlapped on their relative surfaces and heat-sealed at the welded portions 16 on the left, right, and bottom edges. The gas barrier member 17 is welded in place, creating a bag-shaped container body 14 with only the upper edge remaining unbonded.
[0036] Then, the folded fragrance holder 11 is inserted into the container body 14. Finally, when the welded portion 16 at the upper end of the container body 14 is heat-sealed, the gas barrier member 17 is welded in place, completing the fragrance tester 10 with the four side edges of the container body 14 welded together.
[0037] As shown in Figure 1, when a consumer applies pressure by pinching the front sheet E1 and back sheet E2 of the bag with their fingertips, the fragrance tester 10 assembled in this manner can release air containing the volatile fragrance 13 from the inside of the fragrance tester 10 to the outside through the release holes 15.
[0038] Therefore, according to this embodiment, the bag sheet material E of the container body (bag) 14 and the sheet material S of the fragrance holder 11 are made of paper, and the fragrance tester 10 is constructed from the sheet material S, which is folded to have elasticity by utilizing the repulsive force that holds the fragrance and tries to return to its original planar position. As a result, it is possible to provide a fragrance tester that does not generate harmful substances when the fragrance tester 10 made of paper is disposed of.
[0039] Furthermore, even if the material of the bag sheet material E of the container body 14 is made of paper, the gas barrier member 17 is applied to the entire surface of the bag sheet material E on the inner side of the container body 14 to prevent the volatilization of the fragrance, thereby maintaining the gas barrier properties and fragrance retention of the fragrance.
[0040] Furthermore, instead of using sponge or the like as an elastic material in the fragrance holder 11, the material is made of paper. Since paper itself does not have the same elasticity as sponge, the elastic force is utilized by folding it and using the repulsive force that tries to return it to its original planar position, thereby eliminating the disadvantages of using paper, which does not have elasticity.
[0041] The best configurations, methods, and other elements for carrying out the present invention are disclosed above, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In other words, although the present invention is illustrated and described in particular with respect to specific embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various modifications to the embodiments described above without departing from the scope of the technical idea and objectives of the present invention.
[0042] The shape of the fragrance holder 11 is not limited to the illustrated configuration example; other shapes are also acceptable as long as they can be formed into an elastic shape by utilizing repulsive force. For example, as shown in Figures 5(A) and 5(B), an opening H may be provided in the third sheet portion S3 so that when the sheet material S is folded, the fragrance-containing air present in the region surrounded by the first sheet portion S1, the second sheet portion S2, and the third sheet portion S3 can easily pass through the opening H and flow to the discharge hole 15.
[0043] Alternatively, as shown in Figures 6(A) and 6(B), the shape may consist only of a first sheet portion S1 and a second sheet portion S2 connected to the lower longitudinal end of the first sheet portion S1 via a fold line L1.
[0044] Alternatively, the third sheet portion S3 may be folded outwards so as not to come into contact with the first sheet portion S1 (not shown).
[0045] Furthermore, the third sheet portion S3 may be configured to be connected in multiples to any of the other three ends of the second sheet portion S2 that are connected to the first sheet portion S1. For example, two third sheet portions S3 may be provided in the left-right direction of the second sheet portion S2 (not shown), or three third sheet portions S3 may be provided (not shown), etc. As a result, the number of sheet portions S increases, and the repulsive force is strengthened.
[0046] Furthermore, the shape of the container body 14 is not limited to the illustrated configuration example; other shapes are also acceptable as long as the container body 14 can be formed into a bag shape. For example, as shown in Figure 7(A), a back sheet portion E2 of the bag body may be provided connected to the lower longitudinal end of the front sheet portion E1 of the bag body via a fold line L3. By connecting them in this way, the bag body can be completed by folding the bag body sheet material E in half at the fold line L3 and heat-sealing the welded portions 16 at the three ends other than L3, thus simplifying the manufacturing process. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 7(B), the outer sheet portion E1 and the inner sheet portion E2 of the bag may be connected in the left-right direction. [Explanation of symbols]
