DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The storage tool 1 shown in FIG. 1(a) and FIG. 1(b) can store a spray container 4, which is an object to be stored, in the storage section 22, and can decorate the spray container 4 or allow the user to enjoy dressing it up. A cap 3 can be attached to the tip of the spray container 4 stored in the storage tool 1. When the spray container 4 is not in use, the user can enjoy the overall shape of the storage tool 1, which imitates a perfume bottle, by attaching the cap 3. When using the spray container 4, the user can remove the cap 3 to expose the nozzle section 422 (see FIG. 4(b)), and when performing a spray operation, the liquid, which is the content filled in the spray container 4, can be sprayed from the nozzle section 422, imitating the action of spraying perfume. In the following description of the storage tool 1, the upper side of FIG. 1(a) is referred to as the top, the opposite side is referred to as the bottom, the side of the opening 23 in FIG. 1(a) is referred to as the front, and the opposite side is referred to as the back. In addition, the left side as viewed from the rear of the storage tool 1 is referred to as the left, and the opposite side is referred to as the right.

[0010] The storage device 1 has a main body 2 that fixes and supports the spray container 4, and a cap 3 that can be attached to the spray container 4. The main body 2 is formed in a columnar shape that is long in the vertical direction. The outer surface of the main body 2 is decorated as desired, and the main body 2 functions as an exterior member or a protective member for the spray container 4. The main body 2 has a support leg 21 at its lower end. The support leg 21 is provided in a flange shape that protrudes radially from the entire outer diameter of the main body 2. The main body 2 also has a storage section 22 inside. An opening 23 (window section) that is in the shape of an inverted triangle and penetrates from front to back is provided in the front of the main body 2. The opening 23 communicates with the storage section 22. If the container body 41 of the spray container 4 stored in the storage section 22 is formed of a translucent material, the user can check the remaining amount of the content in the spray container 4 from the outside in the front through the opening 23.

[0011] In FIG. 2, the storage section 22 provided in the main body 2 has an attachment / detachment side opening 221 for the spray container 4 provided on the rear surface side, and an end side opening 222 provided so as to be continuous with the attachment / detachment side opening 221 and positioned on the first direction side above. In addition, a support surrounding section 24 is provided below the storage section 22, with the first direction side (upper side) open so as to be able to support the lower end (first end) of the spray container 4. The support surrounding section 24 has a circular, flat bottom 241 as shown in FIG. 3. In addition, the support surrounding section 24 is surrounded by surrounding walls (walls including parts of the inner walls 223b and 223c and the surrounding wall 242) on each side (front, rear, left and right sides) around the outer periphery of the bottom 241. The end of the surrounding wall 242 located at the rear forms an opening edge 221a of a part of the lower end side of the attachment / detachment side opening 221. The opening edge 221a is formed approximately horizontally in the left and right direction. The left and right width of the opening edge 221a is formed slightly wider than the outer diameter of the spray container 4 stored in the storage section 22. The opening width between the left edge 221b and the right edge 221c of the attachment / detachment side opening 221 extending upward from the left and right ends of the opening edge 221a is formed to be substantially parallel and wider than the spray container 4 so that the spray container 4 can be inserted and removed. Inner walls 223b, 223c continuing from the left edge 221b and the right edge 221c into the storage section 22 are provided in the form of substantially flat surfaces and are arranged parallel to each other so as to face each other.

[0012] The storage section 22 is provided with inner ribs 25 on each of the inner walls 223b, 223c, which are engageable and detachable with respect to movement in a second direction (front-rear direction in this embodiment) different from the upward side, which is the attachment / detachment direction of the spray container 4, at a position above the support surrounding section 24 (first direction side). Therefore, the inner ribs 25 are provided opposite each other in the storage section 22. The inner ribs 25 include a first inner rib 251 and a second inner rib 252 provided above the first inner rib 251. The first inner rib 251 is provided across the front-rear direction and protrudes in a flat plate shape. In addition, an inclined portion is provided at the rear end of the first inner rib 251 so as to gradually protrude from the rear to the front.

[0013] As shown in Fig. 3, the second inner rib 252 is provided in a plan view in the shape of a low-headed, generally triangular plate extending in the front-rear direction. Accordingly, inclined portions are provided on the rear and front sides of the second inner rib 252. The inclined portion on the rear side of the second inner rib 252 is provided at the same front-rear position as the inclined portion on the rear side of the first inner rib 251. Also, the second inner rib 252 protrudes so that the inner diameter of the storage section 22 is smaller than the outer diameter of the spray container 4 (specifically, the outer diameter of the nozzle head 42) (i.e., so that the width between the opposing second inner ribs 252 is smaller than the outer diameter of the spray container 4 (nozzle head 42)) (see also Fig. 5).

[0014] The main body 2 has a mouth 26 at its upper end where the end side opening 222 of the storage section 22 is formed. The mouth 26 has a shape imitating the opening of a cylindrical bottle when viewed from the front or from a front oblique direction, but the rear side is open and connected to the attachment / detachment side opening 221.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 3, a third inner rib 27 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the mouth portion 26, which is the inner edge of the end side opening 222, to abut against the side surface of the spray container 4 (specifically, the side surface of the nozzle head 42) when the spray container 4 is stored in the storage portion 22 to restrict rotation of the spray container 4. The third inner rib 27 is provided in a direction intersecting with the inner rib 25, and in this embodiment, is provided so as to extend in a vertical direction perpendicular to the first inner rib 251 and the second inner rib 252 (inner rib 25). The third inner rib 27 is formed in a substantially triangular shape in a plan view (cross section). In this embodiment, although not shown, the outer peripheral side surface of the nozzle head 42 that abuts against the third inner rib 27 is knurled (for example, flat-mesh processing with multiple vertical ribs) to provide anti-slip irregularities. The third inner rib 27 abuts against the outer peripheral side surface of the nozzle head 42 on which the irregularities are provided, thereby restricting unintended rotation of the spray container 4.

[0016] The spray container 4 shown in FIG. 1(b) and FIG. 4(b) has an outer shape that is generally cylindrical. The spray container 4 has a container body 41 and a nozzle head 42. The container body 41 can be filled with liquid, and when a user presses down a push-down portion 421 of the nozzle head 42 toward the container body 41, the contents filled in the container body 41 can be sprayed (or jetted) from a nozzle portion 422 provided on a side surface of the push-down portion 421. The spray container 4 has a nozzle portion 422, which is an ejection port, in the nozzle head 42 at an upper end portion (second end portion) opposite to a lower end portion (first end portion) supported by the support surrounding portion 24. Note that detailed illustration of the nozzle head 42 is omitted.

[0017] The cap 3 is formed in an inverted truncated cone shape as shown in Fig. 1, and is provided so that the outer diameter at the top is larger than that at the bottom. The cap 3 has a circular recess 31 that opens at the bottom end as shown in Fig. 4(b). The cap 3 is configured so that this recess 31 can be attached to a nozzle head 42 located at the upper end of the spray container 4. The cap 3 is positioned for attachment by abutting against a step 42a provided on the outer surface of the nozzle head 42. The outer peripheral surface of the cap 3 is formed with a multi-faceted shape that imitates the facet cut surface of a gemstone.

[0018] Next, the operation of attaching and detaching the spray container 4 to the storage tool 1 will be described. When attaching the spray container 4, first, as shown in FIG. 4(a), the spray container 4 is tilted and inserted into the storage section 22 so that the lower end side is inserted into the support surrounding section 24 first. Thereafter, while the lower end side of the spray container 4 is stored in the support surrounding section 24, the spray container 4 is forced toward the storage section 22 side and raised, so that the side of the spray container 4 abuts against the second inner rib 252. The width between the opposing second inner ribs 252 is formed smaller (narrower) than the outer diameter of the spray container 4. However, when the spray container 4 is further pressed toward the storage section 22 side, the second inner rib 252 pushes the inner walls 223b and 223c of the storage section 22 to the left and right, and the spray container 4 can move toward the storage section 22 side, which is inside the second inner rib 252. In addition, when the spray container 4 passes through the second inner rib 252 and moves into the storage section 22, the lower end of the spray container 4 is restricted from moving rearward (outward) relative to the storage section 22 by the surrounding wall 242 of the support surrounding section 24, so that the spray container 4 can be easily attached to the storage section 22.

[0019] As shown in Fig. 1(b), the spray container 4 stored in the storage section 22 is restricted from moving backward by the second inner rib 252. Also, as shown in Fig. 5, the first inner rib 251 is configured to engage with a recess 43 (the boundary between the container body 41 and the nozzle head 42 shown in Fig. 5) provided on the outer periphery of the spray container 4, thereby preventing the spray container 4 from moving upward (falling out). Therefore, the spray container 4 is stably supported by being stored in the storage section 22.

[0020] In addition, the nozzle head 42 of the spray container 4 is disposed on the upper part of the main body 2 so as to protrude from the end side opening 222 when stored in the storage section 22. The cap 3 can be attached to the nozzle head 42. Four fourth inner ribs 311 extending in the up-down direction (the axial direction of the opening of the recess 31) are provided on the inner peripheral surface of the recess 31 of the cap 3. The fourth inner ribs 311 are disposed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the recess 31. Therefore, the fourth inner ribs 311 are disposed opposite to each other. Therefore, when the nozzle head 42 is engaged with the recess 31 of the cap 3, the fourth inner ribs 311 press the outer peripheral surface of the nozzle head 42, so that the cap 3 is attached to the nozzle head 42 with a force that allows the user to attach and detach the cap 3 by hand. The cap 3 may be attached to the nozzle head 42 in advance before storing the spray container 4 in the storage section 22.

[0021] When performing a spray (or jet) operation of the spray container 4, the user first removes the cap 3 from the nozzle head 42. At this time, the shoulder portion 411 of the container body 41 abuts against the first inner rib 251, thereby preventing it from being pulled upward from the main body portion 2. When the cap 3 is removed, the nozzle portion 422 of the nozzle head 42 is exposed at an upper position of the main body portion 2. Therefore, the user can spray the liquid (e.g., water) that is the content by pressing down the pressing portion 421 of the exposed nozzle head 42. The spray container 4 can be used, for example, for bead play in which a plurality of fusible bead toys made of water-soluble resin formed into approximately spherical shapes (including spheres and polyhedrons) are fused together to create any shape. The fusible bead toys are formed by mixing and kneading polyvinyl alcohol with resin. In addition, the resin that forms the fusible bead toys is formed by appropriately selecting a transparent material, a material having translucency, or an opaque material. When a user (player) uses a spray container 4 to spray water onto the weldable bead toys that have been arranged in any shape, each weldable bead toy becomes wet, and then dries and welds together to form a unified shape.

[0022] When the spray container 4 is not in use, the cap 3 can be attached to the nozzle head 42 for storage, as shown in Fig. 4(b) etc. When the cap 3 is attached to the nozzle head 42, the opening edge of the recess 31 abuts against the step 42a of the nozzle head 42, preventing erroneous operation of the depression portion 421.

[0023] When removing the spray container 4 from the storage section 22, the above-mentioned mounting operation is performed in reverse. That is, the upper end side of the spray container 4 (the cap 3 may be removed or may be attached) is urged toward the rear attachment / detachment side opening 221. Then, the spray container 4 pushes the inner walls 223b, 223c of the storage section 22 to the left and right via the second inner rib 252, and can move outside the storage section 22 beyond the second inner rib 252. At this time, the lower end side of the spray container 4 is positioned within the support surrounding section 24, and the spray container 4 is inclined obliquely. After that, the user can pull the spray container 4 out of the storage section 22 and easily remove it from the main body section 2.

[0024] By removing the spray container 4 from the main body 2, the nozzle head 42 can be removed from the container body 41 and the contents such as water can be refilled.
