Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to a storage case with a lid for tissue bags that can store tissue bags (tissue paper) in a hygienic and appearance-friendly manner. [Background technology]

[0002] As shown in Figure 8, commercially available bagged tissues are folded lengthwise in half (shown by the thick and thick dashed lines), stacked into a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and packaged in a plastic bag B or similar. Almost all tissues are designed to be dispensed in pairs, two sheets stacked together, to improve moisture absorption. To explain the tissue dispensing mechanism, as shown in Figure 4, for example, when a pair of tissues C-1 (shown by the thick dashed lines) is dispensed from bag B (the tissues being dispensed will be referred to as "leading tissues" hereafter), the next pair of tissues C-2 (shown by the thick dashed lines and closely spaced apart hereafter) follows the leading tissues C-1 due to static friction. Once the leading tissues C-1 have been dispensed, the following trailing tissues C-2 stop, leaving roughly half of them exposed from bag B and in a standby state (the exposed tissues will be referred to as "waiting tissues" hereafter). The next time the tissue is taken out, the standby tissue becomes the leading tissue. This repeated action is hereinafter referred to as "pop-up." While having roughly half of the tissue exposed from the bag at all times as described above is extremely convenient when taking out the next tissue, it is unsanitary as dust and other particles may adhere to the exposed area, and the exposed area may deteriorate in places such as inside a car where it is easily exposed to ultraviolet rays, sometimes turning into powder and scattering. It is also undesirable from an appearance perspective.

[0003] Prior art that is configured so that the standby tissue is not exposed includes, for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2. The portable tissues in Patent Document 1 have a packaging bag, tissues contained in the packaging bag, and a cover sheet that covers the surface on the side of the opening. The opening of the packaging bag is located on one side, and the cover sheet prevents the waiting tissues from being exposed. The tissue case of Patent Document 2 has a cover at the opening that covers the exposed part of the standby tissue. Furthermore, as in Patent Document 3, if a neodymium magnet is fixed to the bottom of a tissue case, the tissue case can be easily and conveniently attached to a vertical surface made of iron such as a refrigerator or microwave oven. Also, if a magnetic attachment is fixed with double-sided adhesive tape to a desired location, such as a wall or car ceiling that is not magnetic like iron, the neodymium magnet on the bottom of the case can be attached by being attracted to it. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility model registration No. 3237512 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 5134150 [Patent Document 3] Patent No. 5878608 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The portable tissues in Patent Document 1 are designed to be carried around, and therefore are not intended to be attached to the ceiling of a car, vertical surfaces of furniture, etc. Furthermore, they can only hold pocket-sized tissues. In the tissue case of Patent Document 2, the cover that surrounds the waiting tissues protrudes from the opening for taking out the tissues, which increases the height of the case and the arm length of the force moment. Therefore, when the case is attached to a vertical surface such as a refrigerator, the case is prone to falling if touched by someone passing by, and it also has the disadvantage of being unsightly. The tissue case of Patent Document 3 is convenient because it can be fixed to vertical surfaces such as the car ceiling or wall using a magnetic attachment, but it has the following problems. Specifically, the adhesive strength of the double-sided adhesive tape used to attach the magnetic attachment to the car ceiling is not very strong, requiring a large adhesive tape area. Furthermore, the adhesive strength is further reduced on uneven surfaces, making it difficult to select a suitable location for the attachment. Furthermore, when the adhesive tape of the attachment is peeled off to change the installation location for some reason, the adhesive can leave a lint-like mark on the ceiling surface. In some cases, the ceiling surface may even peel off. Furthermore, the standby tissues remain exposed from the dispenser opening. In addition, whether tissues are packaged in a box or a bag, as the remaining amount of tissues in the stack decreases, there is also the problem that when, for example, leading tissue C-1 is removed from the outlet Ba of bag B, the following tissue C-2 does not follow and becomes stuck in the outlet Ba, making it impossible to pop up, as shown in Figure 8. In the case of boxed tissues, some manufacturers have devised a way to make perforations in the bottom of the box so that the perforated part can be folded up and the stacked tissues can be pushed up from the bottom, which has proven to be quite effective, but in the case of bagged tissues, the bag cannot maintain its shape, making it difficult to lift the bottom of the stacked tissues alone. To provide a storage case with a lid for bagged tissues, which can prevent standby tissues from being exposed from the tissue storage case, ensure that subsequent tissues follow the leading tissue, and prevent the tissues from falling when attached to a vertical surface such as the ceiling of a car or furniture. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The storage case with lid for tissue bags of the invention has a case body for storing tissue bags with a tissue take-out opening in the middle of the top surface of the bag, and a cover lid for opening and closing the opening of the case body. The cover lid is rotatably attached to one of the edges of the case body that face each other across the opening; In the case body, at a position near one edge (closer than the other edge facing across the opening) and above the stored bag of tissues, an axial wire is stretched parallel to the edge to guide the movement of the tissues as they are taken out of the bag. It is characterized by:

[0007] In the above-described lidded storage case for tissue bags (tissue refers to tissue paper), when a tissue (leading tissue) is dispensed from the bag's opening through the gap between the one edge of the case body and the axial wire, the following tissue (trailing tissue) stops as a standby tissue, approximately half exposed from the bag's opening, just like in conventional tissue cases. However, because the axial wire is stretched toward one edge of the case body, the distance from the axial wire to the leading edge of the standby tissue is shorter than the distance from the opening to the leading edge of the standby tissue when the axial wire is not present. As a result, when the cover lid is closed, the leading edge of the standby tissue does not reach the other edge opposite the one edge and is not exposed from the storage case. In this way, the storage case of this device completely conceals the standby tissue when the cover lid is closed, resulting in a good appearance. Furthermore, because the standby tissue is covered by the cover lid, it is not susceptible to dust or ultraviolet light deterioration. Therefore, it is preferable that the cover cover be capable of covering the entire opening. Furthermore, when tissues are dispensed, a bow-shaped frame is formed between one edge of the bag's dispensing opening (the side closest to the one edge of the case body) and the axial wire. This bow-shaped frame is formed when the first one or two sets of tissues have been dispensed, and its basic shape remains almost unchanged until the final set of tissues has been dispensed. By sliding the tissues within this bow-shaped frame, the trailing tissues following the leading tissue do not deviate from the desired course (between the one edge and the axial wire) and can continue to pop up, even without the need for a separate guide plate or the like. This is because the leading and trailing tissues are always lightly squeezed at the leading edge by the bow-shaped frame, and when viewed from above at the dispensing opening, they are wrinkled and form a wavy shape with an amplitude of about 10 mm. One of the wavy leading edges of the trailing tissue is reliably caught in the bow-shaped frame, and the other part is pulled by the caught part and follows the leading tissue. Therefore, the succeeding tissue does not slip out from between the one edge of the case body and the axial wire. Furthermore, as described above, by squeezing the tissues into a wavy shape using the arched frame, the leading edge of the trailing tissues is lightly pressed against the leading tissues even within the bag, creating a strong frictional force that prevents the trailing tissues from slipping off the leading tissues, making it possible to reliably pop up and remove even the last set of tissues.

[0008] In the storage case with lid for tissue bags of the invention, it is preferable that the axial wire is an expandable wire covered with a tubular member. The tubular member may be made of resin, such as a straw, and the expandable wire may be, for example, a rubber string.

[0009] In the above-mentioned storage case with lid for pouched tissues, a stretchable wire material such as a rubber cord is used as the shaft wire material, so compared to using a hard wire material like a fixed pulley, it stretches and contracts in response to the load when removing tissues, acting like a moving pulley and reducing the tensile stress that acts when sliding the tissues over the rubber cord to remove them. If the rubber cord is a round rubber cord, it is even better as it reduces the frictional force with the tissues. Because tissue bags are lightly compressed for storage and transport, the friction with the rubber cord is large when the tissue is initially removed, making it easy for the rubber cord to become twisted. However, if the storage case described above is used, with the rubber cord passing through multiple tubes about 20 mm long made of polypropylene or other materials with relatively low friction resistance, like straws, only the tubes will rotate in the areas where the twisting phenomenon occurs, preventing localized damage to the rubber cord and contributing to a reduction in tensile stress.

[0010] It is further preferable that the invented storage case with lid for pouched tissues has two auxiliary wires stretched at a distance from each other in a direction intersecting with the axial wire within the case body above the stored pouched tissues.

[0011] In the case of compact tissues, for example, which are only about 65% of the width of regular-sized tissues, the leading edge of the succeeding tissue just before it enters the arch-shaped frame is straight rather than wavy, and the amplitude of the wave shape mentioned above is too small, making it difficult for the tissue to be caught in the arch-shaped frame, and many tissues may end up escaping from the arch-shaped frame. However, in the above-mentioned storage case with a lid for pouched tissues, the two auxiliary wires that intersect with the axial wire are stretched at a distance from each other in an irregular crown shape (hereinafter referred to as "irregular crown shape"), so the length of the chord (the straight portion of the axial wire) in the part of the bow-shaped frame where the tissues are removed can be adjusted by the position of the auxiliary wires. For example, if the spacing ratio of the two auxiliary wires is set so that the axial wire lengths are approximately 3:8:3, the subsequent tissues that pass between the two auxiliary wires in the bow-shaped frame are slightly squeezed by the auxiliary wires, causing their tips to become wavy. As a result, one of the wavy parts at the tip is securely caught in the bow-shaped frame without escaping. However, if the length of the axial wire is divided equally by two auxiliary wires, the center of the bow-shaped frame string becomes very short, which means that it is squeezed more than necessary when the tissue is removed, and the tensile stress when the tissue is removed becomes too strong.As a result of numerous experiments, it was demonstrated that for both regular-sized and compact-sized tissues, by stretching the two auxiliary wires that cross the axial wire in a position that separates the axial wire at a spacing of about 3:8:3, the tensile stress when the tissue is removed does not become so great and the above-mentioned effect of preventing deviation from the course is completely achieved. Therefore, there is no need to provide a separate guide cover to prevent deviation from the arch-shaped frame, and by combining the results of various measures such as using a rubber cord covering the tube as the axial wire as mentioned above and stretching two auxiliary wires at an appropriate interval, the tensile stress when dispensing tissues has been reduced dramatically from approximately 700g at its worst to approximately 40g. This solves the problem of the tensile stress becoming too strong when dispensing tissues. As described above, by configuring the tissues to be dispensed from the arch-shaped frame, the distance from the dispenser opening to the tip of the waiting tissue is reduced to roughly 70% of that when there is no axial wire. Therefore, when the rotatable cover lid is closed, the waiting tissues are covered by the cover lid without spilling out from the edge opposite the edge to which the cover lid is attached. Furthermore, because the tissue to be dispensed emerges in a shape that is lightly squeezed toward the center by the two auxiliary wires, spilling out from both edges of the opposing edge is prevented unless it is pulled at an extremely diagonal angle. Furthermore, when the storage case is attached to a vertical surface such as the ceiling of a car or furniture, there is a risk that the tissue bags will fall out of the storage case when the cover lid is open due to their own weight or the pulling force when removing the tissues. However, with the storage case described above, the tissue bags are stably supported by the axial wire and two auxiliary wires, preventing them from falling out.

[0012] In the invented storage case with a lid for tissue bags, the two auxiliary wires are preferably made of wire and are stretched across in a V-shape, with the spacing between them narrowing as they approach one of the edges.

[0013] Unlike tissue storage cases used on a table, when the tissue storage case is attached upside down to the ceiling of a car, the weight of the tissue bags stored inside is always supported by two auxiliary wires (for example, plastic-coated wires about 3.2 mm thick). As a result, the tissues inside the bags are subject to a large amount of frictional resistance at the points where they are pressed by the auxiliary wires, causing many problems, such as the tissues tearing where they are pinched when being removed, until about 10 pairs have been removed. However, in the case of the above-mentioned storage case with a lid for tissue bags, by stretching the two auxiliary wires across in a V-shape as shown in Figure 5, the contact length between the two auxiliary wires and the tissue bags increases, reducing the weight of the tissue bags acting per unit length. As a result, the frictional resistance is reduced, making it possible to smoothly remove tissues from the first set. Furthermore, even if a low-strength plate material such as expanded polystyrene is used for the case body to reduce weight, the two auxiliary wires act as braces, thereby maintaining the strength of the case body.

[0014] The invented storage case with lid for tissue bags may have a bottom lid at the bottom (opposite the opening) that is easy to open and close.

[0015] Because there is a shaft wire at the top of the storage case, it is difficult to replace the pouched tissues from above even when the cover lid is opened. However, with a storage case for pouched tissues with a lid like the one described above, tissues can be easily replaced by opening and closing the bottom lid at the bottom of the storage case. Note that, unlike the top cover lid, the bottom lid does not need to cover the entire bottom opening.

[0016] The lidded storage case for bagged tissues of the invention preferably has a case holder that can be fixed to the inside of the ceiling of a car (automobile), the case holder having a disk and a plurality of pins that can penetrate the disk, the pins being capable of penetrating and piercing the disk radially outward (from the inside of the disk) into the insulation layer of the car ceiling at an angle to the thickness direction of the insulation layer, the disk having a holder-side magnet, and the underside of the bottom lid having a case-side magnet that is attracted to the holder-side magnet.

[0017] In such a lidded storage case for bagged tissues, the disk having the holder-side magnet is fixed to the car ceiling by the fastening pin, and the case-side magnet provided on the bottom lid of the case body and the holder-side magnet attract each other, allowing the storage case to be fixed upside down (i.e., with the opening with the cover lid facing downwards) to the car ceiling. When changing the mounting position of the case holder, simply remove the pins, and the position can be easily changed. Also, the traces left after removing the pins are less noticeable than when peeling off double-sided adhesive tape, so the case holder can be fixed in place by changing its position as many times as necessary. If the holder-side magnet is positioned closer to the axial wire rather than in the center of the bottom cover, the moment of force generated when removing tissue is reduced, which has the advantage that the case-side magnet is less likely to come off the holder-side magnet. [Effects of the Invention]

[0018] The storage case with lid for tissue bags that we have invented can be used with most commercially available tissue bags directly placed in the case itself, and is also convenient because it can be replaced. Furthermore, the tissues are taken out from a position close to the attachment side of the cover lid and are squeezed appropriately in the width direction before coming out, so the standby tissues do not protrude outside the storage case when the lid is closed, which not only gives it a good appearance when used on a table, but also protects the standby tissues from dust and ultraviolet rays. Furthermore, it can be attached mainly to the ceiling of a car or to a vertical surface such as steel furniture, and in this case, it is possible to prevent the tissue bags from falling.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] Hereinafter, an embodiment of a storage case with a lid for pouched tissues according to the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the lidded storage case 1 for bagged tissues of this invention comprises a case body 2, a cover lid 3 that opens and closes the opening 20 of the case body 2, and an axial wire 4 and two auxiliary wires 5 provided inside the case body 2. As shown in Figure 2, the storage case 1 stores bagged tissues A, which contain tissues C that are alternately folded in half and stacked inside a bag B. The bagged tissues A may be commercially available, and an opening Ba for removing the tissues C is provided in the middle of the top surface of the bag B.

[0021] A cover 3 that can completely cover the opening 20 is attached to one edge 2a of the case body 2 on one of the long sides of the opening 20 via a hinge 3a so that it can rotate. The cover 3 has a knob 3b that protrudes from the opposite side of the hinge 3a to facilitate opening and closing. The cover 3 also has a neodymium magnet 3c at a position that comes into contact with the edge 2b of the case body 2 when closed, and a magnetic material (not shown) that is attracted to the magnet 3c is provided on the edge 2b. These elements enable the cover 3 to remain closed.

[0022] In the case body 2, at a position close to the edge 2a and above the stored bagged tissues A, an axial wire 4 is stretched in a direction along the edge 2a to guide the movement of the tissues C taken out from the take-out opening Ba of the bag B. The shaft wire 4 is made of a round elastic cord 4a threaded through multiple polypropylene tubular bodies 4b, each approximately 20 mm long. The round elastic cord 4a must be able to withstand repeated longitudinal stretching and must be able to withstand temperatures inside a car, which can approach 80°C in summer. For example, a relatively inexpensive, commercially available carbon-blended natural rubber cord for outdoor use is sufficient. The tubular bodies 4b are suitable for use with a straw, as they have relatively low frictional resistance. Even if friction occurs between the shaft wire 4 and the tissue when removing the tissue, only the tubular bodies 4b rotate, preventing damage to the round elastic cord 4a and reducing tensile stress, preventing the tissue from tearing when removed.

[0023] Furthermore, within the case body 2, two auxiliary wires 5 are stretched at a distance from each other in a direction that intersects with the axial wire 4 above the stored bagged tissues A. A coated wire (approximately 3.2 mm in diameter) is suitable for the auxiliary wires 5. The two auxiliary wires 5 are essential because they gently squeeze the tissues toward the center when they are dispensed and also prevent the bagged tissues from falling when attached to the vertical surface of steel furniture or the ceiling of a car. The distance between them may be adjustable depending on the size of the bagged tissues to be stored.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 2, the bagged tissue A is placed below the axial wire 4 and the auxiliary wire 5 inside the case body 2.

[0025] How to use the lidded storage case 1 for pouched tissues will be explained below with reference to Figures 3 and 4. In the schematic diagram of Figure 4, for convenience, the tissues whose ends are on the left side of the stacked tissues are shown with thick lines, and the tissues whose ends are on the right side are shown with thick dashed lines. First, when the first one or two sets of tissues are taken out of the dispensing opening Ba of the bag B so that they pass between the two auxiliary wires 5 and between the axial wire 4 and the edge 2a, a bow-shaped frame 6 is formed, surrounded by the edge Baa of the opening on the edge 2a side of the open dispensing opening Ba and the axial wire 4, as shown in Figure 2 or 3. Because the bow-shaped frame 6 is narrower than the dispensing opening Ba, the tissues passing through it are lightly squeezed and become wavy (i.e., wrinkled). As shown in Figure 4, when the leading tissue C-1 passes through the arch-shaped frame 6 and approaches edge 2a, the leading edge of the half-overlapping trailing tissue C-2 also becomes wavy and enters the arch-shaped frame 6. After the leading tissue C-1 leaves, the trailing tissue C-2 stops and enters a standby state. Because the axial wire 4 keeps the standby tissue at a distance from edge 2b, its leading edge does not protrude beyond edge 2b when the lid 3 is closed. Because the auxiliary wire 5 squeezes the tissue moderately toward the center, it does not protrude from either edge 2c or 2d on either side of edge 2b.

[0026] When considering a tabletop use in a living room or other space, where the tissues are often visible to guests, the visual impression is an important consideration. Therefore, having the tissues always exposed would be a major drawback, but with this storage case 1, the lid is always closed, which is preferable. If the case body and lid were made of, say, 7mm thick cedar or cypress boards, the weight of the case itself would be heavy, preventing the case from lifting or wobbling when removing tissues. This gives the case both practicality and a luxurious feel, and it could even serve as a decorative piece for the room.

[0027] The auxiliary wires 5 may be arranged in a V-shape, with the spacing narrowing as they approach the edge 2a, as in the case of auxiliary wire 15 shown in Fig. 5. When arranged in a V-shape, the contact length between auxiliary wire 15 and the tissue pouch increases when storage case 1 is attached upside down to the ceiling of a car, as will be described later, and the weight per unit length of auxiliary wire 15 decreases. As a result, tissues can be easily removed.

[0028] As shown in Fig. 6, a bottom cover 13 is rotatably attached to an edge 12a of the bottom 12 of the case body 2 by a hinge. A tip portion 13a of the bottom cover 13 can be fastened to an edge 12b of the case body 2 by using a magnet (not shown), similar to the cover cover 3. When replacing the bagged tissues A, the bagged tissues A can be easily replaced by opening the bottom cover 13. The bottom cover 13 is provided with a case-side magnet (neodymium magnet or the like) 14 on the underside near the edge 12a. In the case of an office or the like, where steel desks are often used, the magnetic force of the magnet 14 fixed to the bottom 12 of the case body 2 with a pivoting lid allows it to be fixed to the underside or a corner of the desk, with little concern for other people, which is extremely convenient. For wooden desks or wallpaper that cannot be attached with magnets, commercially available double-sided adhesive tape can be used, which will not damage the surface when removed.

[0029] Hereinafter, the case holder 21 for attaching the storage case 1 to the ceiling of the car will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 7, the case holder 21 has a disk 22, a plurality of pins 23, a pin cover 24, and a holder-side magnet 25.

[0030] The disk 22 of the case holder 21 is a thin, steel, dish-shaped plate with a diameter of about 80 mm, and as shown in Figure 7, it consists of a disk and a vertically extending vertical section around it. Inside the vertical section, holes with a diameter of about 0.6 mm are drilled in four to six places on the disk. A screw groove is formed on the outer periphery of the vertical section, and a holder-side magnet 25 that attracts the case-side magnet 14 is fixed to the center of the disk.

[0031] Pins (e.g., pins) 23 with a diameter of 0.5 mm are inserted diagonally into the holes in the disk 22, penetrating a polyurethane layer D with a thickness of about 5 mm attached under the iron plate (not shown) on the ceiling of the car, and reaching a layer E of heat insulating material such as glass wool, thereby fixing the disk 22 to the ceiling of the car.

[0032] The pin cover 24 is an annular body that can be screwed into the thread groove in the upright portion of the disk 22, and has a protrusion at the lower edge that points toward the center. After the disk 22 is fixed to the roof of the car with the pin 23, the pin cover 24 is screwed onto the disk 22, and the protrusion presses the spherical portion of the pin 23, preventing the pin 23 from slipping out.

[0033] The case holder 21 is attached to the ceiling of the car, and the inverted storage case 1 is fixed to the ceiling of the car by the magnetic force that attracts the case-side magnet 14 and the holder-side magnet 25 to each other.

[0034] The inside of a car is where the lid 3 is most effective in blocking UV rays, etc., and unlike the desktop case mentioned above, the lighter the case body 2, the better, so a compact case made of the lightest polypropylene is desirable. Even with a polypropylene case body 2, the auxiliary wire 5, which uses wire, also acts as a diagonal brace, ensuring the strength necessary for removing tissues.

[0035] If the position of the storage case 1 needs to be changed, the 0.5 mm diameter pin leaves no visible trace after removal, and the surface of the car roof is not peeled off. Therefore, the installation location can be changed with peace of mind. [Industrial Applicability]

[0036] The invented storage case for tissue bags is primarily intended to be attached to the ceiling of a car or to the vertical surface of steel furniture, but can also be used on a table. [Explanation of symbols]
