Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a package for containing sheets. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventional packaging structures generally include an open / close zipper on one of the four sides of the bag to provide an opening that can be opened and closed freely, or a pull cap on the top surface of the packaging to provide an opening and closing freely, and a lid that can be opened and closed freely.

[0003] Furthermore, the function of the removal port provided in the packaging body is to separate the inside and outside of the packaging body, allowing face mask sheets, wet tissues, pack sheets, disinfectant gauze, etc. (sheets) impregnated with the internal medicinal liquid to be removed one by one from the stack, maintaining an airtight state that prevents the moisture of the excess medicinal liquid impregnated in the stack of sheets from evaporating.

[0004] Conventional face mask packaging for general-purpose products consists of 20 to 30 sheets folded and stacked, and the amount of liquid medicine filled is necessarily high, from the amount of liquid medicine impregnated in the first sheet to the amount of liquid medicine impregnated in the last sheet, so that there is an excess amount of liquid medicine without any shortage, and the face mask sheet is filled, impregnated, and sealed with a surplus of highly viscous liquid medicine, and the face mask sheet can be easily pulled out from the opening.

[0005] To open the package, the zipper on one side or the top cover is opened, and the pull cap or airtight seal is removed to expose the opening through which the sheets can be picked up and removed one by one from the stack with the fingers.

[0006] When the sheet is applied to the face, excess liquid medicine on the front and back sides is prevented from dripping and the amount of liquid medicine required by the individual can be adjusted with fingers outside the package, and the removed excess liquid medicine is returned to the inside of the package through an outlet, and the sheet is spread out into a flat surface with the fingers and applied to the face.

[0007] Claim 1 of WO2015 / 060351 discloses "...the hole has a narrowest width at a location other than both ends,...a wet sheet package."

[0008] JP 2021-35848 A discloses in claim 1 that "the placement member has a hole portion facing the opening and a first linear corrugated slit connected to the hole portion."

[0009] Japanese Patent No. 6957790 discloses in claim 1: "A package in which the connecting portion of the removal opening has the constant width without interruption between the finger holes at both ends."

[0010] Japanese Patent No. 7144664 discloses in claim 1 that "the removal opening has a connecting portion and a finger hole for removing the sheet with fingers, the connecting portion of the removal opening is formed in a straight line in the longitudinal direction, the connecting portion is composed of two stripping plates that have a step at a distance above and below between the tip of the facing lower stripping plate and the tip of the upper stripping plate located above, for passing the sheet from the stack to the removal opening, and are arranged to have an overlapping width between the tip of the lower stripping plate and the tip of the upper stripping plate, the sheet passes through the finger hole and the step and the width of the connecting portion to be removed from the stack through the package."

[0011] These packages with openings that can be opened and closed freely are laminated bodies in which multiple sheets impregnated with a medicinal solution are stacked together. Each sheet can be removed from the opening, and the fitting of the openings isolates the inside and outside of the package, protecting the quality of the laminated body inside.

[0012] [Patent Document 1] WO2015 / 060351 publication [Patent Document 2] Patent Publication No. 2021-35848 [Patent Document 3] Patent No. 6957790 [Patent Document 4] Patent No. 7144664 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0013] The prior art discloses that "there is a constant, uninterrupted width between the finger holes at both ends of the outlet," but improvements are needed that allow the sheet to be pulled out of an outlet with a constant width in a stable shape without losing its lateral shape, and that also remove excess chemical solution.

[0014] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a package that has a curved portion at the removal opening, allows excess medicinal liquid on the front and back of the sheet to be removed from inside the package without destroying the planar shape of the face mask sheet, and removes creases from folding. [Means for solving the problem]

[0015] The present invention provides a packaging body including a packaging bag for enclosing a laminate in which a plurality of planar sheets impregnated with a drug solution are folded one by one and stacked together, and a lid member attached to an attachment hole formed in the packaging bag from the inside of the packaging bag to cover the attachment hole, the lid member including a plate body facing the laminate, an opening for removing the sheet formed in the plate body, and a lid body for opening and closing the opening in the longitudinal direction in an openable and closable manner, the opening being provided from the vicinity of the left end to the vicinity of the right end along the center in the longitudinal direction, the opening being configured to have opposing widths consisting of a constant width formed by sandwiching a curved portion from side A and a curved portion from side B facing each other, and the position of a finger hole is such that the opening is opened and closed in an openable and closable manner so that a single sheet can be removed with a finger. The problem is solved by a package characterized in that the package has a left finger hole and a right finger hole located in the middle of the distance from near the left end to near the right end of the opening, or in positions symmetrical to the left and right of the middle position, the opposing width of the opening of the curved portion in a plan view is smaller than the vertical width of the finger holes, the sheet is sandwiched between the curved portion on side A which constitutes a constant width and the curved portion on the opposing side B, the horizontal direction of the sheet sandwiched in the horizontal direction of the curved portion touches and rubs evenly against the multiple wavy lines sandwiched between the curved portions, and when the sheet is pulled up directly upward from the removal opening and passes between them, excess medicinal solution on the front and back surfaces of the sheet is evenly removed, and the sheet is pulled up while preventing distortion in the horizontal direction of the flat body. Effect of the Invention

[0016] When the face mask sheet is pulled out straight upward from the longitudinally curved outlet while maintaining balance to the left and right, the face mask sheet is pulled out while maintaining a stable lateral shape, and the excess medicinal solution on the front and back of the sheet is removed uniformly. A sheet may be provided that can be applied to the face. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Figure 8] 1 is a process diagram showing a manufacturing process of an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] The present invention relates to an outlet 3 in which, when a face mask sheet (hereinafter referred to as "sheet") 4 in FIG. 1 is pulled out from an outlet 3 shaped in the longitudinal direction 33 of a top surface 52 of a packaging body 1, excess medicinal liquid on a front surface 44 and a back surface 45 of the sheet is removed uniformly within an interior 5 of the packaging body 1, and further, distortion of a flat body 6 in a lateral direction 62 is suppressed.

[0019] The outlet 3 in Figures 2, 3, 4, and 5 has a constant width 76 in the longitudinal direction 33 of the cover member 31 made of a plate 36, and has a shape sandwiched between tip end 83, 84 made of curved portion 26 of side A 81 and tip end 84 made of curved portion 26 of side B 82, which are provided near the right end 80 while running from near the left end 79 along the center 55.

[0020] The cross sections 85, 86 of the outlet 3 are configured so that the surface of the tip 83 of the curved portion 26 from side A 81 and the surface of the tip 84 of the curved portion 26 from side B 82 touch and rub against the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet, with the cross section 85 of side A 81 and the cross section 86 of side B 82 being wall surfaces or pointed shapes, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "cross sections").

[0021] When the front surface 44 and the back surface 45 of the sheet come into contact with and are rubbed against the cross section 85 of side A 81 and the cross section 86 of side B 82 of both tip portions 83, 84 from side A 81 and side B 82, the sheet 4 is held between the cross sections 85 of the curved portion 26, and the left and right forehead portions 9, 10, 22 are pinched with the left and right fingers and slowly and evenly pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from each of the curved portions 26 which form the removal opening 3, the excess medicinal solution on the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet is evenly dispensed, and the folds 32 of the sheet 4 are removed.

[0022] Furthermore, when the sheet 4 is pulled out in a straight upward direction 39 from the removal opening 3 extending in the longitudinal direction 33 of the present invention, while maintaining balance on both the left and right sides, by pinching the left forehead portion 9 with the left fingers at the upper end portion 22 of the forehead with the right fingers and pinching the right forehead portion 10 with the left fingers, the sheet 4 is sandwiched between the cross sections 85 of the A side 81 and the cross sections 86 of the B side 82 of the curved portions 26 from the A side 81 and the B side 82 in the longitudinal direction 33 of the removal opening 3 having a constant width 76, and is held in place by resistance provided at the cross sections 85 and 85 that contact the front surface 44 and the back surface 45 of the sheet in the horizontal direction in which the sheet 4 extends, thereby preventing distortion of the planar body 6 extending in the horizontal direction 67 of the planar body 6.

[0023] Conventional drug-impregnated sheets have the disadvantage that when they are pulled out from a straight-line outlet that has a constant width in the longitudinal direction, if the sheet is pinched and pulled to the left or right, the nonwoven fabric has the property of stretching strongly in the vertical direction but in the horizontal direction, and when a force is applied to the horizontal arrangement of the nonwoven fabric fibers to the left or right, the shape of the flat body 6 becomes deformed (distorted) in the horizontal direction.

[0024] The sheet 4 is picked up and pulled out from the outlet 3 having the curved front portion 26 and has a central finger hole 78 or two finger holes 23, 25.

[0025] In the present invention, the position of the middle finger hole 78 at the outlet 3 is such that the middle finger hole 78 is provided in the middle 68 of the distance from near the left end 79 along the center with a constant width 76 to near the right end 80 extending in the longitudinal direction 33.

[0026] The position of the middle finger hole 78 is provided in the center, and the flat body 6 is folded so that the central forehead portion 11 corresponds to the position corresponding to the middle finger hole 78. In other words, the middle finger hole 78, the vertical direction of the nonwoven fabric, and the vertical direction of the nose bridge 22 are aligned, and the upper forehead end portion 22 of the laminate 28 that has been punched, folded, and laminated is pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from the middle finger hole 78. At the same time that the upper forehead end portion 22 of the sheet 4 is pulled out, the left forehead portion 9 and the right forehead portion 10 that are positioned symmetrically on the left and right are pinched with the left finger and the right forehead portion 10 with the right finger, and pulled in the straight upward direction 39 with the same tension on both the left and right. When the sheet 4 is pulled up in the lateral direction, it is sandwiched between 87 a cross section 85 of curved portion 26 on surface A and a cross section 86 of curved portion 26 on the opposing surface B, and as the sheet 4 is evenly touched and rubbed while being sandwiched between multiple wavy lines 89 and 90 on surface A 81 and surface B 82, the sheet 4 is held between multiple wavy lines 89 and 90, and when the sheet 4 is gently pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from removal opening 3 in this held state, excess chemical solution on the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet is evenly removed, preventing the sheet from extending in the lateral direction 67 of flat body 6.

[0027] The positions of the left finger hole 23 and the right finger hole 25 at the removal opening of the present invention are provided at positions having any distance symmetrically on the left and right sides in the middle 68 of the distance from the vicinity of the left end 79 to the vicinity of the right end 80, which is provided at a constant width along the center and extends in the longitudinal direction.

[0028] The two finger holes are located at a certain width along the center from near the left end 79 of the removal opening, sandwiched between curved portions 26, and the two finger holes, left finger hole 23 and right finger hole 25, are provided at any positions symmetrical on the left and right sides in the middle 68 of the distance to near the right end 80 extending in the longitudinal direction.

[0029] Two finger holes, a left finger hole 23 and a right finger hole 25, are provided along the center at symmetrical positions with the center of the nose bridge at the center 68, and the left forehead portion 9 of the sheet is pinched with the left fingers through the finger holes, and the right forehead portion 10 is pinched with the right fingers, and the left and right sides are simultaneously pulled up in a balanced straight upward direction 39.

[0030] When the left forehead portion 9 and the right forehead portion 10 of the sheet 4 are simultaneously and balancedly pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from the removal opening 3, the horizontal direction 67 in which the flat body 6 of the sheet 4 extends is sandwiched between 87 the cross section 85 of the curved portion 26 on the A side 81 of the sheet 4, which is formed of a constant width 76, and the cross section 86 of the curved portion 26 on the opposing B side 82, and when the horizontal direction 67 of the sheet 4 sandwiched in the horizontal direction of the curved portion 26 comes into contact with and rubs against the multiple wavy lines 89 and 90 of the curved portion 26 evenly, the sheet 4 is held between 87 the multiple wavy lines 89 and 90, and the sheet 4 is pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from the removal opening 3 in which it is held, so that the nonwoven fabric is pulled out from the removal opening 3 without stretching in the vertical direction, thereby suppressing the property of extending in the horizontal direction 67 of the flat body 6.

[0031] Furthermore, two finger holes 23, 25 are provided at positions symmetrically apart from the center 68, and the left forehead portion 9 located on the top surface 69 of the laminate 28, which is punched, folded, and laminated with the vertical direction of the nonwoven fabric and the vertical direction of the nose bridge 62 aligned, is made to correspond to the left finger hole 23, and the right forehead portion 10 located on the top surface 69 of the laminate 28 is made to correspond to the right finger hole 25, so that the sheet 4 is simultaneously pulled up in a balanced manner to both the left and right in the straight upward direction 39, so that the sheet 4 faces the cross section 85 of the curved portion 26 on the A surface 81 having a constant width 76. When the sheet 4 is sandwiched between 87 of cross section 86 of curved portion 26 on surface B 82, and the lateral direction 67 of the sheet 4 sandwiched in the lateral direction of curved portion 26 evenly touches and rubs against multiple wavy lines 89 and 90 of curved portion 26, the sheet 4 is held between 87 of the multiple wavy lines 89 and 90, and when the sheet 4 is gently pulled up in a straight upward direction 39 from removal opening 3 while being held in that state, excess medicinal solution on the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet is evenly removed, preventing the sheet from extending in the lateral direction 67 of flat body 6.

[0032] The shape of the finger holes 23, 25, 78 at the outlet 3 may be any shape that has a vertical width 78 that allows the thumb and index finger to enter and allows smooth picking and easy picking and pulling out of the last sheet 4 at the bottom 66 of the stack.

[0033] The curved portion 26 of the outlet 3 extends in the longitudinal direction 33 all around, has a shape of a constant width 76 , and is composed of jagged lines 88 or wavy lines 89 , 90 .

[0034] The jagged line 88 of the curved portion 26 has a certain width 76 sandwiched between surface A 81 and surface B 82 for fixing the sheet 4 in the horizontal direction, and has multiple corners where the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet come into contact. Therefore, for example, if the sheet 4 is pulled up quickly, it is likely to tear if it comes into contact with and rubs against the cross sections of the corners, which is problematic, so a gentle wavy shape that comes into contact with the sheet 4 is preferable.

[0035] The characteristic of the shape of the wavy lines 89, 90 of the curved portion 26 is that it has a constant width 76 sandwiched between the tip 83 of the wavy line 89 on surface A 81 and the tip 84 of the wavy line 90 on surface B 82, for fixing the sheet 4 in the lateral direction, and has wavy lines 89, 90.

[0036] The wavy lines 89, 90 have multiple wavy lines 89, 90 in the longitudinal direction 33, which allow the front and back surfaces 44, 45 of the sheet to touch and rub against the cross section 85 of the tip 83 of side A and the cross section 86 of the tip 84 of side B. When the multiple wavy lines 89 touch the sheet 4 evenly, the sheet 4 is held between the cross sections 85 of the multiple wavy lines 89 and the cross sections 86 of the wavy lines 90 87, thereby preventing shaking distortion in the left and right lateral directions 67.

[0037] FIG. 1 is a plan view of a flat sheet 6 of a sheet 4 punched out along the longitudinal direction of the nonwoven fabric sheet and the longitudinal direction of the nose bridge 62. From a laminate 28 in which each sheet 4 is folded in a Z fold 46, each sheet 4 is picked up with the fingers from an opening 3 and pulled out in a straight upward direction 39 in the order of the upper end 22 of the forehead contour, the left forehead portion 9 which can be picked up with the fingers on both the left and right sides, the right forehead portion 10, the center of the forehead portion 11, the left eye 12, the right eye 13, the nose portion 14, the nose cut 63, the cheeks 15, the mouth portion 16, the left end 17, the right end 18, the cut line 19, the remaining cut portion 20, and the chin portion 21. When applying the sheet, it is preferable to apply the sheet in the order of the center of the forehead portion 11 or the left forehead portion 9, the right forehead portion 10, the cheeks 15, and then the chin portion 21.

[0038] The shape of the wavy lines 89, 90 of the curved portion 26 is preferably designed so as not to fit around the eyes 12, 13, nose 14, and mouth 16, for example, with a large wave shape.

[0039] Sheet 4 has forehead pinching portions 9, 10, 11 on both the left and right sides, and the applicant has applied for a technology in which multiple rows of perforated cut lines are punched out continuously or discontinuously in the locations facing the concave and convex parts of the face by aligning the longitudinal direction 62 of the nose bridge with the longitudinal direction (MD direction) of the nonwoven fabric sheet, so that sheet 4 can be attached to fit and cover the concave and convex parts of the face.

[0040] The packaging body 1 of the present invention is a laminated body that is stacked in a manner different from the pop-up method of stacking that is used in ready-made products, in which when a sheet is taken out, the next sheet appears at the take-out opening.

[0041] The laminate 28 of the present invention has pharmaceutical (pharmaceutical compliant) efficacy or miscellaneous (non-pharmaceutical) effects in the sheet 4, and mainly retains the safety, stability, usability and efficacy of the pharmaceutical liquid impregnated therein.

[0042] 2 is a perspective view of lid member 31. Access port 3 covers top surface 69 of laminate 28 and is made of plate 36. Left finger hole 23 and right finger hole 25 are provided at arbitrary distances symmetrically from curved portion 26 extending in longitudinal direction 33 to center 55 of top surface 52 of lid member 31 and from center 68 of access port 3.

[0043] The position of the middle 68 is the position where the middle 68 from near the left end 79 to near the right end 80 of the removal opening 3 along the center 55 intersects with a line 24 that extends parallel to the short side walls 48, 49 folded from the folding line 53 and is perpendicular to the center 55.

[0044] The outlet 3 has a curved portion 26 and finger holes 23, 25 arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction 33 of the front wall 34 of the long side and the back wall 35 of the long side.

[0045] The molding method in Figure 2 is obtained by punching out a resin sheet in a three-dimensional manner while applying heat, or by 3D molding, or by molding PET resin sheets using a compressed air (heat, vacuum, and compressed air) method, or by melting LLDPE or other recycled materials with heat and molding them using injection molding, etc.

[0046] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view from the front wall 48 of the short side toward the back wall 49 of the short side. When viewed from directly above 47 to directly below 51, there is an access opening 3 formed by the tips 83, 84 of the curved portions 26 from side A 81 and side B 82, which face each other.

[0047] The opposing widths in views C and D of Figure 4 have a constant width 76 at a constant distance from the tip 83 of side A having the curved portion 26 to the tip 84 of side B having the curved portion 26 facing each other.

[0048] 3 and 5 are oblique views from the front wall 34 of the long side in the direction of the back wall 35 of the long side, in which tip ends 83, 84 from side A 81 and side B 82 face each other and have a constant distance and constant width 76 in the longitudinal direction 33, and the tip ends 83, 84 of the two stripping plates allow a sheet 4 to be picked up and pulled from the laminate 28 by the fingers on both sides through the two finger holes 23, 25, and also allows the sheet 4 to be peeled off from the laminate 28 and passed between the opposing tip ends 83 and the opposing tip ends 84 along the path 71 of width 75.

[0049] In Figures 4E, F, and G, when viewing the outlet 3 from above and below, the two tips of tip 83 of surface A 81 having curved portion 26 and tip 84 of surface B 82 having curved portions 26 facing each other have a width 74 in an approaching state or an overlapping width 8 with a step 7 having a distance between tip 83 of the upper plate and tip 84 of the lower plate.

[0050] When viewed from above, the removal opening 3 is a space in which there is a step 7 and a certain distance and a certain width 76 between side A 81 and the opposing side B 82, and the tip 84 of the lower striking plate of side B and the tip 83 of the upper striking plate of side A, which have curved portions 26 facing each other, are opened with a distance between them in the vertical direction, and this allows the sheet 4 to be picked up with the fingers and pulled out of the laminate 28, and the sheet 4 to be peeled off from the laminate 28 and passed through the gap 87 between the path 71 where tip 84 and the opposing tip 83 have width 74 when they are in the approaching state of F or width 8 when they overlap G, to be performed smoothly.

[0051] 3 is a perspective view showing the cover member 31 and the stack 28. The cover member 31 having the curved portion 26 and the outlet 3 with the finger holes 23, 25, 78 covers the top surface 69 of the stack 28, each of which is folded and stacked with a crease 32, or the stack 28, which is folded and stacked in a manner other than the pop-up method. The frames of the long side walls 34, 35 and the short side walls 48, 49 that constitute the cover member 31 prevent the stack of the stacked stack 28 from collapsing.

[0052] The laminate 28 of the present invention is a laminate in which the sheets 4 of one flat body 6 are folded at creases 32 and laminated. Alternatively, a laminate (hereinafter referred to as a "laminate") in which the sheets 4 of one flat body 6 are folded at creases 32, different from the pop-up method, and each folded sheet 4 is laminated into a plurality of sheets will be described.

[0053] A feature of the present invention that differs from the pop-up method is that, when a single sheet 4 of the present invention is folded and pulled out from stack 28 in which multiple sheets are stacked, the sheets 4 are pulled out one by one from opening 3, so that when the previous sheet 4 has been pulled out from opening 3, the next sheet 4 is positioned on top surface 69 of stack 28.

[0054] Through verification, curved portion 26 and one or more finger holes of cover member 31 of Figures 2, 3 and 5 of the present invention have the function of being able to accommodate the material characteristics of each sheet 4 pulled out of stack 28, in which sheets 4 according to the intended use are stacked, to outlet 3, such as the viscosity of the medicinal solution, and whether the basis weight or thickness of sheet 4 is large or small.

[0055] An opening 77 of the curved portion 26 is provided extending in the longitudinal direction 33 along the center 55 on the top surface 52 of the cover member 31 in Figures 2, 3, 4, and 5, and the opening 77 of the curved portion 26 is parallel to the longitudinal direction 33 of the front wall 34 of the long side and the back wall 35 of the long side.

[0056] When the sheet 4 folded in a Z fold 46 passes through the step 7 between the lower and upper striking plates whose lower and upper tip ends 83, 84 face each other, the sheet 4 is rubbed and handled by the tip end 84 of the opposing lower striking plate and the tip end 83 of the next upper striking plate, so that the excess chemical solution is uniformly impregnated and removed, and the sheet 4 is then pulled straight up in the direction 39 from the removal opening 3 and removed.

[0057] The lid member 31 has a plate 36 facing the laminate 28, an outlet 3 for taking out the sheet 4 formed on the plate 36, a lid 37 for closing and sealing the outlet 3 in an openable and closable manner, and a lid-side joint 38 and an outlet-side joint 59 provided near the outlet 3 and on the surface of the lid 37 facing the outlet 3, which are engageable with each other. The lid 37 is preferably engaged by a claw portion.

[0058] The step 7 at the tips 84, 83 of the two strips in the cross-sectional views from the front wall 48 of the short side to the back wall 49 of the short side in Figures 4E, F, and G is a space formed when the tip 84 of the lower strip and the tip 83 of the upper strip on the facing B side 82 in Figure F (width 74 in close proximity) and Figures E and G (overlapping width 8) are open with a distance between them in the vertical direction, allowing the sheet 4 to be picked up with the fingers and pulled from the laminate 28, and the sheet 4 to be peeled off from the laminate 28 and passed through the path 71 of the approaching width 74 or overlapping width 8 of the tip 84 and the opposing tip 83.

[0059] The width in plan view in FIG. 2 refers to the distance between the opposing tips 83, 84 of two stripping plates on surface A 81 and surface B 82 in plan view.

[0060] The opposed width 75 means that the tip 83 of the curved portion 26 from surface A 81 and the tip 84 of the curved portion 26 from surface B 82, which constitute the outlet 3 in the plan view of C and D in Figures 4, face each other and have a constant distance of a constant width 76.

[0061] The width 74 in the approaching state refers to the distance in plan view between the tip 84 of surface B 82 and the tip 83 of surface A 81 when, in a plan view, one can see directly above 47 and directly below 51 from between the tip 84 of the lower striker plate on surface B 82 and the tip 83 of the upper striker plate on surface A 81 in FIG. 4F at 87.

[0062] The overlap width 8 refers to the distance between the tip 84 of the lower striker 40 on the B side 82 and the tip 83 of the upper striker 41 on the A side 81 when they overlap, as shown in E and G in Figure 4.

[0063] The width 74 in the approaching state is preferably 3 times or less the thickness of one nonwoven fabric sheet. The overlapping width 8 is preferably 0 to 15 mm or less. The step 7 is preferably 3 to 20 times the thickness of the nonwoven fabric sheet.

[0064] The opposed widths 75 in plan view are C and D in Figures 2, 3 and 4. The approaching width 74 is F in Figure 4. The overlapping widths 8 are E and G in Figure 4.

[0065] The width 74 in the approaching state of F has a step 7 with a space formed when the tips 84 and 83 of the opposing cutting plates of A and B are open with a distance between them above and below, and when viewed from directly above 47 to directly below 51 in Figure E, the tips 84 and 83 of the cutting plates of surface A 81 and surface B 82 have a distance of width 74 in the approaching state, where the laminate 28 can be slightly seen.

[0066] The distance of width 74 of the sheet 4 in the F approaching state in FIG. 4 is selected according to the purpose of use, and the stacked sheets 4 smoothly pass through path 71 between tips 84 and 83 of the striking plates where surface A 81 and surface B 82 face each other at 87, and the excess chemical solution on both the sheet front surface 44 and the sheet back surface 45 of the sheet 4 is removed and the folds 32 are removed before the sheet is pulled out.

[0067] The overlapping width 8 of E and G in Figure 4 is formed when one sheet 4 according to the intended use is peeled off from the laminate 28, and passes through the path 71 of the overlapping width 8 in the overlapping state, which forms a step 7 between the tip 84 of the lower striker plate and the tip 83 of the upper striker plate facing each other on the A side 81 and the B side 82, and a distance is formed between the tips 83, 84 of the sheet 4. In other words, the sheet 4 laminated according to the intended use passes through the path 71 of the overlapping space 87 between the tip parts 84 and 83 of the two facing strikers, and the tip parts 84 and 83 of the two facing strikers strike both sides 44 and 45 of the sheet 4, removing the excess chemical solution on both sides 44 and 45 and removing the folds 32 before being pulled out.

[0068] The distances required for the opposing width 75 in a plan view, the width 74 in the approaching state of the step 7, and the overlapping width 8 are set so that the sheets 4, which have characteristics according to the purpose of use and are stacked in the stack 28 of the packaging body 1, can be easily picked up with the fingers and smoothly pulled out from the removal opening 3 through the path 71 of the opposing width, the step 7, the width 74 in the approaching state, and the overlapping width 8.

[0069] The setting of the width in plan view having the opposed width 75 and the step 7 (width 8 overlapping with width 74 in the close state) of sheet 4 is mainly for face mask sheets or cosmetic sheets designed with nonwoven fabric sheets having a basis weight and thickness produced by a spunlace manufacturing method, or a bio-cellulose sheet having resin sheets on both sides of bio-cellulose produced by cultivating coconuts in acetic acid, or a gel sheet having a gel agent or a sponge sheet made of sponge, or a pile fabric made of pile on one or both sides of the fabric, etc., which are materials made by different manufacturing methods and have different thicknesses and basis weights, so the distance between step 7 and width 82 in plan view of sheet 4 according to the intended use should be set as a value based on verification of the usability of each.

[0070] The distance of the approaching width 74 of F of the present invention is, for example, a distance according to the purpose of use that is set to accommodate a sponge sheet or pile fabric having a thickness of approximately 10 (g / mm2) for the sheet 4 to be pulled up from the laminate 28. Even if a thin decorative sheet made of a nonwoven fabric sheet of 10 (g / mm2) is enclosed and pulled up, the excess chemical solution adhering to both sides 44, 45 is efficiently handled by the tips 42, 43 of the striking plate when the sheet 4 is pulled straight up 76, making it difficult to remove the excess chemical solution on both sides 44, 45 at once, and therefore it is necessary to set a distance corresponding to the sheet 4.

[0071] In the present invention, the distance 8 between the overlapping widths E and G is such that, when the sheets 4 pulled up from the laminate 28 have roughly the same thickness characteristics, the sheet 4 is pulled straight up 76, and the excess chemical solution adhering to both sides 44, 45 of the sheet 4 is efficiently handled in the order of the tip 42 of the lower stripping plate and the tip 43 of the next upper stripping plate, and the excess chemical solution on both sides 44, 45 is eliminated.

[0072] The positions of the sheet 4 and the finger holes 23, 25 for picking and pulling out the sheet 4 in a balanced manner are such that the nose bridge vertical direction 62 of the sheet 4 is aligned with the center 68 between the left end vicinity 79 and the right end vicinity 80 of the take-out opening 3, the left finger hole 23 and the right finger hole 25 are provided at any distance symmetrical from the center 68, and the sheet is folded with the left forehead portion 9 of the sheet corresponding to the left finger hole 23 and the left forehead portion 10 of the sheet 4 corresponding to the right finger hole 25.

[0073] As shown in FIG. 4, the packaging body 1 includes a packaging bag 29 for enclosing a storage container 27 which contains a laminate 28 in which multiple sheets 4 of a planar body 6 impregnated with a medicinal solution are folded at creases 32 inside 5 of the packaging body 1 and stacked together, and a lid member 31 which is attached from the inside of the packaging bag 29 to an attachment hole 30 formed in the packaging bag 29 and covers the attachment hole 30.

[0074] The present invention relates to a packaging body 1 comprising a packaging bag 29 for enclosing a laminate 28 in which sheets 4 of planar bodies 6 impregnated with a medicinal solution are stacked, and a lid member 31 attached from the inside of the packaging bag 29 to an attachment hole 30 formed in the packaging bag 29 and covering the attachment hole 30.

[0075] In Figures 4E and 4G, tip 83 of surface A 81 and tip 84 of surface B 82, which face each other and allow sheet 4 to pass through, face each other vertically and extend into each other, overlapping with each other at a distance that extends in the direction in which tips 83, 84 face each other. Therefore, when viewed from directly above in the direction of laminate 28 at 47 and directly below 51, there is an overlapping width 8 where tip 83 and tip 84 overlap, and laminate 28 cannot be seen.

[0076] The setting of the step 7 through which the sheet 4 passes in the opened state at E, G, and F in Figure 4 is determined by verifying the step 7 opened with a distance above and below the tip 84 of the lower striker and the tip 83 of the upper striker depending on the basis weight, thickness, or material of the sheet 4.

[0077] The specifications of Figure 4 are set by taking into consideration the product specifications of sheet 4, the compatibility of sheet 4 with the chemical solution, and the specifications of step 7, width 74 in the approaching state, and width 8 overlapping width 8 are set based on the results of verifying whether the viscosity of the impregnating chemical solution when tension is applied and the sheet 4 is pulled up, whether the basis weight of sheet 4 is high or low, or whether the material stretches vertically and horizontally and affects the shape of sheet 4.

[0078] The effect of the sheet 4 to which strong and weak tension is applied and the corners 72 of the contact portion 60 of the two stripping plates, surface A 81 and surface B 82, is that when there is strong tension, a solid amount of excess chemical solution is eliminated, and when there is weak tension, a small amount of excess chemical solution is eliminated.

[0079] The package 1 with gusset specification 70 in Fig. 6 is a package 1 in which the tip 84 of the lower striker plate, the tip 83 of the upper striker plate, the laminate storage container 27, the substantially rectangular laminate 28, and the top surface 69 are covered by the lid member 31 in Fig. 2B from the bonding or welding 54 process, and a chemical solution are enclosed in the inside 5 of the packaging bag 29. The gusset specification 70 is optional.

[0080] In the order of use, the sheets 4 of the flat body 6 are picked up one by one from the stack 28 through one or more finger holes and pulled out from the outlet 3, but the present invention is configured with a mechanism that takes into consideration secondary contamination by preventing fingertips from touching the next sheet 4 located on the upper surface of the stack 28.

[0081] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view from the front wall 48 of the short side of the package 1 toward the back wall 49 of the short side, in which the molded lid member 31 of FIG. 2B is placed over the laminate storage container 27 in which the laminate 28 and the sheet 4 are impregnated with a medicinal solution and housed therein, and the plate body 36 of the lid member 31 is bonded or welded 54 to the inside of the packaging bag 29.

[0082] The sheets 4 are rubbed against the corners 72 of the contact parts 60 of the tip parts 83, 84 of the sheets 4, and the excess liquid medicine in the sheets 4 is automatically removed, and the removed excess liquid medicine falls into a laminate storage container 27 facing the tip parts 83, 84 and is absorbed by the laminate 28, and this operation is carried out inside 5 of the package 1.

[0083] The necessity of sealing an excess of the liquid medicine in the interior 5 of the package 1 of the present invention is to prevent the occurrence of impregnation spots of the liquid medicine due to a shortage of the liquid medicine in each sheet 4 from the first sheet 4 to the last sheet 4 pulled out of the laminate 28 of multiple sheets. In the conventional product, the conventional product sheet of multiple sheets stacked together is also filled with an excess of the liquid medicine.

[0084] Furthermore, the need to remove excess medicinal liquid adhering to both sides of each sheet 4 that is pulled out means that if sheet 4 with excess medicinal liquid adhering to it is applied to the face, the excess medicinal liquid will drip from the ends of sheet 4 applied to the face, causing stains on the chin 21 or neck or clothing in the lower part of the face.

[0085] In addition, the need to remove excess medicinal solution adhering to sheet 4 and to have sheet 4 uniformly impregnated with the medicinal solution is such that by attaching sheet 4 uniformly impregnated with the medicinal solution to the face, the medicinal solution is applied evenly to the skin, and it is expected that the efficacy of the cosmetic product will be uniformly applied to the skin.

[0086] The width 8 of the opening 77 formed by the curved portion 26 where two opposing stripping plates overlap in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction 33 of the outlet 3 is smaller than the vertical width 73 of one or more finger holes 23, 25, 78 in the perpendicular direction.

[0087] 7H and 7I are cross-sectional views showing the main part when the removal opening 3 is closed by the lid 37. A projection 59a that projects inward is formed in the fitting part 59 on the side of the removal opening 3, which is rectangular in plan view and extends upward from the plate 36, and a recess 38a that fits with the projection 59a is formed in the side wall of the lid 37.

[0088] Next, a protrusion 59b that protrudes outward is formed in the fitting portion 59 of the outlet 3, which is rectangular in plan view and extends upward from the plate body 36, and a recess 38b is formed in the side wall of the lid body 37 so as to surround the protrusion 59b and fit into it.

[0089] By providing the fitting parts 38, 59 in this way, the lid 37 can be opened and closed easily with a single touch. Furthermore, the airtightness between the outside 61 and the inside 5 can be improved by processing both or either of the fitting parts 38, 59 with rubber or the like.

[0090] The configuration of the tabs (including hooks, etc.) provided near the lid 37 and the outlet 3 is preferably a perfect circle, a longitudinal direction 33, a polygon, or any other shape that allows the lid 37 to be opened and closed with a single touch.

[0091] The claws are engaged, for example, by providing one or more pairs of convex and concave parts near the lid 37 and the removal opening 3, or by providing them to match the shape of at least a part of the edge of the removal opening 3, so that they face each other and can be engaged with a single touch, for example, by pressing with a fingertip and released by pulling.

[0092] The sound of the two components, the surface having the stopper of the lid 37 and the surface having the stopper of the outlet 3, coming together and fitting together can be heard to confirm that they are engaged with each other.

[0093] The sealing of the interior 5 and exterior 61 of the packaging body 1 can be achieved by a configuration in which a ring-shaped ring on the pull cap of the lid member 31 is pulled out and removed with the fingers to reveal the removal opening 3 or removal opening 3 having a shape previously formed in a mold, or by an opening and closing lid having an adhesive, which is a flap made of synthetic paper or the like.

[0094] 8 is a manufacturing process diagram of the package 1. In the manufacturing process 56, holes 58 for processing the plate 36 are formed in the packaging film 57 that becomes the top surface 52 of the package 1, and the inner surface of the packaging film 57 of the packaging bag 29 and the plate 36 of the lid member 31 that has one or more finger holes at the opening 3 are bonded or welded 54.

[0095] It is preferable that removal opening 3 is provided in advance with a flap that is made up of a pull cap and can be removed, or that is attached to cover opening 77 with an adhesive and then peeled off. Alternatively, it may be made up of a pull cap designed to be molded as a single piece in order to form removal opening 3 of connecting portion 86 that has a certain width in longitudinal direction 33 and connects with finger holes 23, 25 at both ends, which serves as removal opening 3 (opening) of package 1 in lid member 31.

[0096] The adhesion is achieved by joining at least a portion of the surface of the plate 36 of the lid member 31 to a thermoplastic film, sheet, etc. used for the packaging bag 29 with an adhesive such as hot melt.

[0097] The welding is performed by, for example, heat sealing, by melting the thermoplastic surface of the film or sheet used for the packaging bag 29 with heat, and then welding, for example, the LLDPE side of the film structure and at least a portion of the surface of the cap made of, for example, polyethylene, and the thermoplastic surfaces that contact each other and form the packaging bag 29 together.

[0098] The medicinal liquid to be impregnated into the sheet 4 has both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical effects, and is a liquid for impregnating the sheet 4, or a powder or paste used for poultices.

[0099] Cosmetic sheets (including pharmaceutical and quasi-drug products) are made of materials such as nonwoven fabric sheets, biocellulose, sponge sheets, pile fabrics, etc., and are pharmaceutical materials containing medicinal liquids for use on humans. They are related to cosmetic usage, and are impregnated products such as cosmetic face mask sheets, neck care sheets, eye sheets, makeup remover sheets, face wash sheets, hand or body moisturizing sheets, and hair or scalp protection sheets.

[0100] A medical (pharmaceutical) sheet is a pharmaceutical product made of a nonwoven sheet and used for personal medical treatment, containing a medicinal liquid, such as gauze, cotton balls, cut cotton, cotton swabs, sponges, etc., which are sterilized with ethylene oxide gas, gamma irradiation, autoclave, etc., and are impregnated with a liquid agent such as alcohol or povidone-iodine at the time of use, or are sealed in a pharmaceutical-compliant container that has been impregnated with the liquid agent. Cosmetic sheets may be used as medical sheets after verification.

[0101] Miscellaneous (non-pharmaceutical) sheets are impregnated with a liquid to remove dirt, and are used for cleaning sheets, furniture wiping sheets, car seats, etc.

[0102] The basis weight of the sheet 4 can be selected from the nonwoven fabric sheets, for example, 10 (g / mm2) to 200 (g / mm2), and the manufacturing method and basis weight of the nonwoven fabric sheet can be selected arbitrarily. A nonwoven fabric sheet manufactured by the spunlace method that is strong in the vertical direction and stretchable in the horizontal direction is preferable.

[0103] The nonwoven fabric sheet made of natural materials is made of natural fibers such as cotton, Tencel, Lyocell, etc. Furthermore, it may be natural fibers that have been kneaded with charcoal or coated with charcoal.

[0104] Nonwoven sheets made of chemical fibers are made of chemical fibers such as rayon, polyester phthalate, polypropylene, polyethylene, etc. Sometimes, they are used in combination with natural fibers.

[0105] The materials and films / sheets of the packaging bag 29 are made of paper, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (LLDPE), OPP, CPP, aluminum foil, metal deposition, paper, etc., and are heated by high frequency or a hot plate to become the pillow packaging bag 29. For example, environmentally friendly FSC (forest management) certified paper materials are desirable, but the composition of the film is optional. [Explanation of symbols]
