Tube container holder

Abstract

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. [Solution] A tube holder in which rod 1 is inserted into tube 1, rod 2 is inserted into tube 2, and plates 2 and 3 are fixed to each other with screws on both sides of plate 1, and a tube container is inserted from above into the gap between tubes 1 and 2, and a paste-like product can be dispensed by, for example, crushing the bottom of the tube container.

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.Devices that do not require wall attachment and that expell the contents by pressing a movable plate have been devised, but there have been no devices that do not require a movable plate or that can expel the contents without pressing a roller.

[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 with the other hand and take out the contents without spilling them. 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] The tube holder is configured such that a rod 1 is inserted into a tube 1, a rod 2 is inserted into a tube 2, and plates 2 and 3 are fixed to both sides of the plate 1 with screws, a tube container is inserted from above into the gap between the tubes 1 and 2, and a paste-like product can be dispensed by squashing the bottom of the tube container, etc. Effect of the Invention

[0006] The tube holder of this invention can be made from wood or bamboo, which contributes to the realization of a sustainable society. It is easy to dispose of it when it is damaged or deteriorated. It does not require bending, so it is easy to disassemble and clean, and parts can be replaced. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the tube holder of the present invention in a pre-assembled state. [Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the tube holder of the present invention after assembly. [Diagram 3] 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a tube holder according to the present invention after assembly and with a tube container inserted therein; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] The boards can be made from burnt cedar, which is cheap and water-resistant, but that is not limited to burnt cedar. The pipes can be made from bamboo, but that is not limited to bamboo. EXAMPLES

[0009] A tube holder was made by inserting a round bar 1 of 1.5 cm in diameter and 9.5 cm in length into a bamboo tube 1 of 3 cm in outer diameter and 9 cm in length, a round bar 2 of 1.5 cm in diameter and 9.5 cm in length into a bamboo tube 2 of 3 cm in outer diameter and 9 cm in length, a burnt cedar board 1 of 1.5 cm in thickness, 15 cm in width and 9.5 cm in length, a burnt cedar board 2 of 1.5 cm in thickness, 15 cm in width and 13.5 cm in length, and a board 1 of 1.5 cm in thickness, 15 cm in width and 9.5 cm in length sandwiched between a burnt cedar board 3 of 1.5 cm in thickness, 15 cm in width and 13.5 cm in length and fixed with screws. After inserting a commercially available tube containing toothpaste into the gap between bamboo tubes 1 and 2, it was confirmed that the lid could be opened with one hand and that the toothpaste came out when the top of the tube was pushed back and bent. [Industrial Applicability]

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

Claims

[Claim 1] The tube holder is configured such that a rod 1 inserted in a tube 1, a rod 2 inserted in a tube 2, and plates 2 and 3 are fixed from both sides of the plate 1 with screws, a tube container is inserted from above into the gap between the tubes 1 and 2, and a paste-like product can be dispensed by squashing the lower part of the tube container, etc.
