Tube container fixture

Abstract

To provide a tube container fixture for easily opening the lid of a tube container containing a paste-like product with one hand and easily taking out the paste-like product. [Solution] The tube container fixing device has plates 2 to 5 connected with screws and plate 1 movably attached so that when plate 1 is placed on top, part of it falls due to gravity. When a tube container is inserted into the gap between plate 1 and the plate 2 below it, the tube container is fixed in place, the lid can be easily opened with one hand, and a paste-like product can be easily extruded by pressing down on plate 1.

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This relates to a self-help device that enables a person who is unable to use one hand due to an accident or illness to open the lid of a tube container with the remaining hand and dispense the contents. [Background technology]

[0002] A device has been devised in which toothpaste tubes are placed in a box attached to a wall and the contents are expelled by pressing a movable plate, but this requires a wall to attach it to.A device has also been devised in which toothpaste tubes are placed in a box attached to a wall and the contents are expelled by pressing a roller, but there was no device that did not require wall attachment and expelled the contents by pressing a movable plate.

[0004] Tube containers are used as containers for paste-like products such as toothpaste, wasabi paste, and mustard paste, but when one hand cannot be used due to an accident or illness, it is not easy to open the lid and take out the contents with the other hand. We propose a tool that makes it possible to easily open the lid of a tube container containing paste-like products with one hand and to easily take out the paste-like products. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] Plate 1 has a width W1, plate 2 has a width W2, and plate 3 has a width W3. Two plates 4 and 5 of equal width are connected to each other from both sides of plate 5 with one screw but not fastened, plate 1 and plate 5 are connected to each other with one screw but not fastened, plate 2 and plate 4 are fastened with two screws, plate 2 and plate 5 are fastened with two screws, plate 3 and plate 4 are fastened with two screws, and plate 3 and plate 5 are fastened with two screws, and W2 is equal to W3 and W1 is smaller than W2 and W3, so that plate 1 becomes a movable plate, and when plate 1 is placed with its top facing up, part of plate 1 falls due to gravity, and when a tube container is inserted into the gap between plates 1 and 2, the tube container is fixed, the lid can be easily opened with one hand, and a paste-like product can be easily pushed out by pushing down plate 1. Effect of the Invention

[0006] The fixture of this invention can be easily manufactured by simply cutting it out from a board. It contributes to the realization of a sustainable society. It is also easy to dispose of it due to damage or deterioration. No bending process is required, so it is easy to disassemble and clean, and parts can be replaced. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Diagram 3] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the fixing device according to the embodiment of the present invention after it is assembled and a part of the plate 1 has fallen off. [Figure 4] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a state in which a tube container is inserted into one embodiment of the fixing device of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] If you use burnt cedar, you can make it cheap and water-resistant, but it is not limited to burnt cedar. If you consolidate the parts from board 2 to board 5 into 1 to 3 parts, you can reduce the number of screws required. Finish so that there are no sharp edges. EXAMPLES

[0009] Plate 1 was 15mm thick, 92mm wide, and 89mm long, plates 2 and 3 were 15mm thick, 92mm wide, and 90mm long, and plates 4 and 5 were 15mm thick, 92mm wide, and 120mm long, made from burnt cedar, and plates 1 and 4 were connected with one screw but not fastened, plates 1 and 5 were connected with one screw but not fastened, plates 2 and 4 were fastened with two screws, plates 2 and 5 were fastened with two screws, plates 3 and 4 were fastened with two screws, and plates 3 and 5 were fastened with two screws, so that the gap between plates 1 and 2 was 31mm, to form the fastener of the present invention. After inserting commercially available toothpaste into the gap between plates 1 and 2, it was confirmed that the lid could be easily opened with one hand, and that the toothpaste would slowly come out when plate 1 was pressed down. [Industrial Applicability]

[0010] The fixation device of this invention utilizes the functions of usable parts of the body, helping users to become more independent, preventing the decline of physical functions, and potentially reducing the burden on care staff, so it is expected to be in demand at home, in hospitals, and in care facilities.

Claims

[Claim 1] Plate 1 has a width W1, plate 2 has a width W2, and plate 3 has a width W3. Two plates 4 and 5 of equal width are connected to each other from both sides of plate 5 with one screw but not fastened, plate 1 and plate 5 are connected to each other with one screw but not fastened, plate 2 and plate 4 are fastened with two screws, plate 2 and plate 5 are fastened with two screws, plate 3 and plate 4 are fastened with two screws, and plate 3 and plate 5 are fastened with two screws, and W2 is equal to W3 and W1 is smaller than W2 and W3, so that plate 1 becomes a movable plate, and when plate 1 is placed with the top, part of plate 1 falls due to gravity, and when a tube container is inserted into the gap between plates 1 and 2, the tube container is fixed, the lid can be easily opened with one hand, and a paste-like product can be easily pushed out by pushing down plate 1.
