Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hand bucket having a handle portion integrally formed with the bucket portion. [Background technology]

[0002] A pail with a handle integrally attached to the bucket is used, for example, in a bathroom. A bather, for example, scoops up hot water from the bathtub into the pail and pours it over their body to wash away soap and dirt. Conventionally, pails have been proposed that have a hook integrally attached to the bucket for hanging on the edge of the bathtub or a towel rack (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 60-138491 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 61-118489 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 63-108388 [Patent Document 4] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 2-124091 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Buckets used in bathrooms become soiled with soap, grime, and other contaminants, and are often placed in humid bathrooms after use. In order to prevent the growth or proliferation of mold and bacteria, it is desirable to drain and dry the bucket after use. However, the buckets described in Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4 have the opening of the bucket facing upward when the hook is hung on the edge of the bathtub. In this state, hot water containing soap, grime, and other contaminants remains in the bucket, making it easy for mold and bacteria to grow or multiply in the bucket.

[0005] In contrast, the bucket described in Patent Document 1 has an opening that faces diagonally downward when the hook is hung on, for example, a towel rack fixed to the wall of the bathroom, allowing water to drain. However, the bucket described in Patent Document 1 has the hook located directly offset from the handle toward the bottom wall of the bucket, that is, directly below the handle, and the tip of the hook is bent toward the handle. With a bucket having such a configuration, when the hook is hung on, for example, a towel rack, the bucket protrudes significantly toward the bathroom side, which can get in the way when taking a bath or cleaning the bath.

[0006] Patent Document 1 also discloses a pail with a hook part provided at a position facing the handle part across the pail part. The hook part is provided so that it protrudes from the open end of the pail part in the direction opposite to the bottom wall of the pail part, i.e., above the pail part, and the tip part is bent toward the pail part. A pail with such a configuration has the hook part hooked onto a towel rack with the opening of the pail part facing the bathroom wall, so that it protrudes significantly from the bathroom wall into the bathroom, which can get in the way when taking a bath or cleaning the bathtub.

[0007] The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and aims to provide a technology for draining water from a bucket in which the handle and hook are integrally formed with the bucket portion without getting in the way of bathers, cleaners, etc. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] One aspect of the present invention has the following configuration: (1) A pail having a handle and a hook integrally formed on a pail section having a peripheral wall along a bottom wall, the handle and the hook are provided at opposite positions across the peripheral wall, and the hook is provided from a position closer to the bottom wall than the handle, toward the bottom wall.

[0009] In a pail having such a configuration, for example, the opening of the pail part faces the bathroom side, and the hook part is hung on a towel rack in a position where the bottom wall faces diagonally downward. Hot and cold water adhering to the pail flows down from the pail part to the handle part by its own weight, and is discharged to the outside from the tip of the handle part, and the pail 1 is drained. Since the hook part of the pail is provided near the bottom wall of the pail part, the amount by which the pail part protrudes from the wall surface of the bathroom toward the bathroom side when the hook part is hung on the towel rack can be reduced compared to a case where the hook part is provided directly below the handle part, or the hook part is provided on the opposite side of the pail part from the handle part so as to protrude upward from the open end of the pail part. Therefore, the pail with the above configuration can be hung on a towel rack or the like to drain water so as not to get in the way of bathers, cleaners, etc.

[0010] (2) In the bucket described in (1), it is preferable that the handle portion has a recess that opens in the same direction as the bucket portion, and the connection portion between the inner surface of the recess and the inner surface of the peripheral wall is formed in an arc shape.

[0011] When a bucket having such a configuration is hung on a towel rack via the hook portion, for example, hot and cold water adhering to the inner surface of the bucket portion is collected in the recess of the handle and can be easily drained from the tip of the handle.

[0012] (3) In the hand bucket described in (1) or (2), it is preferable that the bucket portion has a step portion at a position corresponding to the hook portion, and a hook groove is formed between the hook portion and the step portion.

[0013] A bucket having such a configuration makes it easier to provide the hook portion inside the opening edge of the bucket portion, and for example, when the hook portion is hung on a towel rack, the amount by which the bucket portion protrudes from the bathroom wall toward the bathroom can be reduced.

[0014] (4) In the pail described in any one of (1) to (3), it is preferable that the pail be capable of standing on its own with the hook portion facing downward.

[0015] A bucket having such a configuration can stand upright and drain water even when, for example, there is no towel rack or the towel rack is not used.

[0016] (5) In the bucket described in (4), it is preferable that the hook portion is provided on the peripheral wall so that, when the bucket is standing on its own with the hook portion facing down, the portion of the peripheral wall corresponding to the hook portion is positioned such that the open end side opposite the bottom wall is lower than the closed end side facing the bottom wall.

[0017] When a bucket having this configuration is self-supporting, hot and cold water that flows down the part of the peripheral wall of the bucket that corresponds to the hook part naturally flows out from the opening of the bucket part to the outside, making it easy to drain.

[0018] (6) In the bucket described in (4) or (5), it is preferable that the peripheral wall is formed so as to widen in diameter from the bottom wall side toward the opposite side of the bottom wall and is inclined with respect to the opening edge of the bucket portion, and the hook portion is formed perpendicular to the opening edge of the bucket portion.

[0019] When the pail having such a configuration stands on its own with the hook part facing down, a gap is formed between the pail part and the hook part and the installation surface, ensuring ventilation. Also, the area where the hook part comes into contact with the installation surface when the pail stands on its own can be reduced. Therefore, with the pail having the above configuration, water can be drained hygienically when it stands on its own.

[0020] (7) In the bucket described in any one of (4) to (6), it is preferable that the hook portion has a bent portion and a through hole is formed in the bent portion.

[0021] A bucket having such a configuration, when standing on its own, is less likely to allow hot and cold water to accumulate in the hook portion, and the proliferation or growth of mold, bacteria, and the like in the hook portion can be inhibited. Effect of the Invention

[0022] According to the present invention, it is possible to realize a technology for draining water from a bucket that can be hung on a towel rack or the like via a hook portion without getting in the way of bathers, cleaners, etc. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0024] The bucket of this embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings. This specification discloses a bucket for use in a bathroom. Fig. 1 is an external perspective view of a bucket 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a side view of the bucket 1. Fig. 3 is a view taken in the direction of the arrow A in Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a view taken in the direction of the arrow B in Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a view taken in the direction of the arrow C in Fig. 5. Fig. 6 is a view taken in the direction of the arrow B in Fig. 2. Fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line E-E in Fig. 3.

[0025] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the hand bucket 1 is a plastic molded product, and has a handle 4 and a hook 6 integrally formed with a bucket section 2. The handle 4 and the hook 6 are provided at opposite positions across the bucket section 2.

[0026] As shown in Fig. 3, the tub portion 2 has a peripheral wall 23 provided along the bottom wall 21, and is shaped like a cup that is open on one side. As shown in Fig. 7, the bottom wall 21 is provided approximately parallel to the opening edge 2b of the tub portion 2. The peripheral wall 23 is provided with a larger diameter from the bottom wall 21 side toward the opposite side to the bottom wall 21 (the opening side of the tub portion 2), and is inclined with respect to the opening edge 2b of the tub portion 2.

[0027] 2 and 4, peripheral wall 23 has handle 4 protruding outward from the outer circumferential surface of the end located opposite bottom wall 21. Handle 4 is flush with opening edge 2b of tub portion 2. As shown in Fig. 4, handle 4 is formed so that it has a semicircular or D-shaped shape when viewed from the tip side, making it easy to grip with the hand.

[0028] 3 and 7, handle portion 4 has a recess 41 that opens in the same direction as tub portion 2, and inner circumferential surface 41a of recess 41 is formed in an arc or D shape. Recess 41 has a gently sloping surface 41c at a position corresponding to the tip of handle portion 4. Connection portion 5 where inner circumferential surface 41a of recess 41 and inner circumferential surface 2a of tub portion 2 (inner circumferential surface 23a of peripheral wall 23) are connected is formed in an arc shape, and inner circumferential surface 41a of recess 41 and inner circumferential surface 2a of tub portion 2 (inner circumferential surface 23a of peripheral wall 23) are gently connected.

[0029] As shown in Figures 2 and 7, a hook portion 6 is provided on peripheral wall 23 at a position on the circumferentially opposite side of peripheral wall 23 relative to handle portion 4. Hook portion 6 is provided from a position closer to bottom wall 21 than handle portion 4 toward bottom wall 21. As shown in Figures 2 and 6, hook portion 6 is provided on the inside of opening edge 2b of tub portion 2, and as shown in Figure 3, opening edge 2b of tub portion 2 is formed in a circular shape.

[0030] As shown in Figures 2 and 7, the tub portion 2 has a step portion 25 at a position corresponding to the hook portion 6. The step portion 25 is recessed radially inward relative to the peripheral wall 23. A hook groove 61 is formed between the hook portion 6 and the step portion 25. The hook portion 6 is provided in a vertical direction relative to the opening edge 2b of the tub portion 2. The hook portion 6 has a tip portion 62 bent toward the bottom wall 21, and the tip portion 62 is disposed to the side of the bottom wall 21.

[0031] As shown in Fig. 5, the width W1 of the hook portion 6 is set so that the pail 1 can stand on its own with the hook portion 6 facing down. For example, the width W1 of the hook portion 6 is set to be equal to or greater than the width W2 of the handle portion 4 shown in Fig. 4. Note that, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the hook portion 6 has a through hole 63 formed in the tip portion 62.

[0032] Next, a method of using the bucket 1 will be described. For example, when a bather washes himself in the bathroom, he holds the handle 4 with one hand, scoops up hot water from the bathtub with the bucket 2, and pours it over his body. The bather can hold the handle 4 with one hand and hook the fingers of the other hand between the handle 4 and the bucket 2 and onto the hook 6 provided on the other side, so that the bucket 1 can be held firmly with both hands, making it easy to handle the bucket 1 even if the handle 4 and the connection part 5 between the handle 4 and the bucket 2 are thin. As shown in FIG. 2, the bucket 1 is reinforced between the hook 6 and the bucket 2 by the reinforcing part 7, so that the hook 6 is unlikely to deform or break during use.

[0033] The hook part 6 of the bucket 1 is provided integrally with the bucket part 2 so as to be located inside the opening edge 2b of the bucket part 2, that is, so as not to protrude outside the bucket part 2. Therefore, the hook part 6 is unlikely to get in the way when the bather uses the bucket 1.

[0034] For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the bucket 1 has a step between the bottom wall 21 and the peripheral wall 23 by the step portion 25, and the area of ​​the bottom wall 21 is smaller than that of a bucket without the step portion 25. Therefore, for example, when the bucket 1 is placed on the installation surface 14 such as the bathroom floor or washstand with hot water in the bucket portion 2, the bucket 1 may tilt toward the step portion 25. However, the bucket 1 has a hook portion 6 at a position corresponding to the step portion 25, and the tip portion 62 of the hook portion 6 is located on the side of the bottom wall 21. Therefore, the hook portion 6 can abut the tip portion 62 on the installation surface 14 next to the bottom wall 21, and support the bucket portion 2 so that the bucket 1 does not tilt toward the step portion 25. Therefore, the bucket 1 can be stably placed on the washstand with hot water in the bucket portion 2, and is easy to use. The bucket 1 with the step portion 25 has a smaller capacity of the bucket portion 2 than a bucket without the step portion 25. Therefore, bucket 1 can reduce the amount of water used.

[0035] After use, the bucket 1 can be hung from a towel rack 12 fixed to the wall surface 10 of the bathroom, for example as shown in FIG. 8, to allow water to drain.

[0036] That is, the bar 12a of the towel rack 12 is inserted through the opening of the hook groove 61, and the bucket 1 is hung from the bar 12a via the hook portion 6. Since the tip 62 of the hook portion 6 is located on the side of the bottom wall 21 and the hook groove 61 is provided near the bottom wall 21, the bucket 1 is supported by the bar 12a on the bottom wall 21 side of the center of gravity of the bucket 1. Therefore, the bucket 1 rotates toward the bottom wall 21 side (in the direction K in the figure) with the bar 12a as a fulcrum, with the opening of the bucket portion 2 facing the bathroom side (the side opposite the wall surface 10 of the bathroom). Since the bar 12a is located away from the wall surface 10, the bucket 1 rotates until the part P opposite the hook portion 6 of the connecting part where the bottom wall 21 and the peripheral wall 23 are connected abuts against the wall surface 10 of the bathroom. As a result, the bucket 1 is hung from the bar 12a with the bottom wall 21 facing diagonally downward.

[0037] In the pail 1, the handle 4, which is provided on the opposite side of the hook 6 and the pail 2, is provided so as to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface of the open end of the pail 2 (the outer peripheral surface of the end of the peripheral wall 23 located opposite the bottom wall 21). Therefore, the pail 1 is hung from the bar 12a with the handle 4 facing downward and without the handle 4 touching the wall surface 10. At this time, the opening of the recess 41 of the handle 4 faces diagonally downward.

[0038] When the used bucket 1 is hung from the bar 12a, the hot and cold water adhering to the inner circumferential surface 2a of the bucket portion 2 flows down by its own weight toward the portion 23ay of the peripheral wall 23 corresponding to the handle portion 4, as shown by the arrow F1 in the figure. Since the open end side X21 of the portion 23ay opposite the bottom wall 21 is positioned lower than the closed end side X22 of the bottom wall 21, the hot and cold water flows toward the handle portion 4, as shown by the arrow F2 in the figure. Since the inner circumferential surface 2a of the bucket portion 2 (the inner circumferential surface 23a of the peripheral wall 23) and the inner circumferential surface 41a of the recess 41 provided in the handle portion 4 are gently connected via the arc-shaped connecting portion 5, the hot and cold water flows smoothly down from the portion 23ay through the connecting portion 5 to the inner circumferential surface 41a of the recess 41.

[0039] The hot and cold water that flows into recess 41 naturally flows down along inner circumferential surface 41a, as shown by arrow F3, and is discharged to the outside from inclined surface 41c. Because handle 4 does not contact wall surface 10, the hot and cold water falls directly from inclined surface 41c onto the bathroom floor. Also, because bucket portion 2 and recess 41 of bucket 1 open to the bathroom side, humid air is less likely to stagnate within bucket portion 2 and recess 41. Therefore, by hanging hook portion 6 on a towel rack, bucket 1 can be drained in a short time, and the growth or proliferation of mold and bacteria is suppressed.

[0040] After use, the bucket 1 can also be drained by standing it upright on a mounting surface 14 such as a floor or a washstand with the hook portion 6 facing downwards, as shown in FIG.

[0041] That is, the hook portion 6 of the pail 1, located on the opposite side of the handle portion 4 and the pail portion 2, is formed with a predetermined width W1, and the pail 1 stands on its own when the hook portion 6 is brought into contact with the installation surface 14. Because the hook portion 6 is located inside the opening edge 2b of the pail portion 2, the pail 1 stands on its own in a position tilted by a predetermined angle θ1 toward the bottom wall 21 from position L1 perpendicular to the installation surface 14. As a result, when the pail 1 stands on its own, a force is always applied toward the bottom wall 21 by the handle portion 4, which extends in the opposite direction to the hook portion 6. This force is supported by the hook portion 6 located on the opposite side of the pail portion 2 from the handle portion 4, so the pail 1 is unlikely to tip over when standing on its own.

[0042] The hook portion 6 is provided so that the portion 23ax of the peripheral wall 23 corresponding to the hook portion 6 is located below the open end side X11 located on the opposite side of the bottom wall 21 of the bucket 1 when the bucket 1 stands on its own, below the closed end side X12 located on the bottom wall 21 side. Therefore, hot and cold water attached to the bucket 1 naturally flows down from the inner peripheral surface 41a of the recess 41 and the inner peripheral surface 2a of the bucket portion 2 to the portion 23ax of the peripheral wall 23 corresponding to the hook portion 6, as shown by the arrows F11, F12, and F13 in the figure, and further flows from the closed end side X12 to the open end side X11 and is discharged to the outside, as shown by the arrow F14 in the figure. Therefore, the bucket 1 stands on its own with the hook portion 6 facing down, and the water is drained in a short time, suppressing the growth or proliferation of mold, bacteria, and the like.

[0043] Hot and cold water adhering to the outer peripheral surface of the bucket 1 also flows down toward the hook portion 6 due to its own weight. As a result, there is a risk that hot and cold water will accumulate on the inner peripheral surface of the hook portion 6 that forms the hook groove 61. However, a through hole 63 is formed in the hook portion 6. As a result, hot and cold water that flows down the inner peripheral surface of the hook portion 6 is discharged from the through hole 63 as shown by the arrow F15 in the figure, and the proliferation or growth of mold, bacteria, and the like on the inner peripheral surface of the hook portion 6 can be suppressed.

[0044] Furthermore, while the peripheral wall 23 of the pail 1 is inclined relative to the opening edge 2b of the pail portion 2, the hook portion 6 is provided perpendicular to the opening edge 2b of the pail portion 2. Therefore, when the pail 1 is made to stand on its own with the hook portion 6 facing downwards, a portion P2 of the opening edge 2b comes into contact with the installation surface 14, while a bent portion P3 of the hook portion 6 comes into contact with the installation surface 14, forming a gap S1 between the portion P2 of the opening edge 2b and the bent portion P3 of the hook portion 6. This allows the pail 1 to stand on its own with the contact area with the installation surface 14 minimized, and also ensures ventilation between the pail 1 and the installation surface 14, thereby suppressing the growth or proliferation of mold and bacteria on the hook portion 6 and the like.

[0045] Here, hook portion 6 is provided so that the cross section cut along the width direction has a V-shape or U-shape. This reduces the contact area between hook portion 6 and installation surface 14 when pail 1 is placed upright with hook portion 6 facing down, making it difficult for mold, bacteria, and the like to grow or propagate on hook portion 6.

[0046] The bucket 1 may be placed on a washbasin or the like when taking a bath. In this case, the handle 4 faces upward, so the space required to place the bucket 1 can be reduced. For example, when a small child or an elderly person is taking a bath, the bucket 1 can be placed on a washbasin or the like so that the handle 4 does not get in the way of the person taking a bath. This is expected to prevent accidents such as a child or elderly person tripping over the handle 4 and falling, or discomfort such as a hand getting caught on the handle 4 and causing the bucket 1 to fall off the washbasin. Even if the bucket 1 is left as it is, the water drains from the bucket 1 as described above, suppressing the growth or proliferation of mold and bacteria, making it easy to use.

[0047] As described above, the hook part 6 of the pail 1 of this embodiment is hung on the towel rack 12 with the opening of the pail part 2 facing the bathroom side and the bottom wall 21 facing diagonally downward. The hot and cold water adhering to the inner peripheral surface of the pail 1 flows down from the pail part to the handle part by its own weight and is discharged to the outside from the tip of the handle part. The pail is drained. Since the hook part 6 of the pail 1 is provided near the bottom wall of the pail part 2, the amount by which the pail part 2 protrudes from the wall surface 10 of the bathroom to the bathroom side when the hook part 6 is hung on the towel rack can be reduced compared to the case where the hook part is provided directly below the handle part or the hook part is provided on the opposite side of the pail part so as to protrude upward from the opening end of the pail part. Therefore, according to the pail 1 of this embodiment, the pail can be hung on the towel rack 12 or the like to drain water so as not to get in the way of the bather or the cleaner.

[0048] The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be applied in various ways. For example, the bucket 1 may be used in a place other than a bathroom, such as a washroom. In this case, the bucket 1 may be hung, for example, on a towel rack in the washroom.

[0049] For example, the recess 41 does not have to be provided in the handle 4. Furthermore, the shape of the handle 4 is not limited to the shape shown in the drawings, and it may be formed into a corrugated shape so that fingers can be easily hooked thereon.

[0050] For example, the stepped portion 25 does not have to be provided in the tub portion 2. The shape of the stepped portion 25 does not have to be the shape shown in the drawing. However, by providing the stepped portion 25 in the tub portion 2 so that the bar 12a of the towel rack 12 can be easily inserted between the tub portion 2 and the hook portion 6, the amount by which the tub portion 2 protrudes from the bathroom wall surface 10 when the hand bucket 1 is hung on the towel rack 12 can be reduced.

[0051] For example, bucket 1 does not have to stand on its own with hook portion 6 facing down. However, by standing on its own with hook portion 6 facing down, bucket 1 can be placed on a washbasin or the like so that handle portion 4 does not get in the way when taking a bath.

[0052] For example, the hook portion 6 does not have to be provided perpendicular to the opening edge 2b of the bucket portion 2. Also, the hook portion 6 may be provided so that no gap S1 is formed between the hook portion 6 and the installation surface 14 when the hand bucket 1 is made to stand on its own.

[0053] For example, the through hole 63 does not have to be formed in the hook portion 6. The through hole 63 does not have to be an elongated hole, and may be composed of a plurality of holes.

[0054] For example, the tub portion 2 may have a flat surface between the step portion 25 and the opening edge 2b, and the opening edge 2b may be D-shaped. [Explanation of symbols]
