Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, in such a wet sheet storage container, as time passes, the chemical solution impregnated in the upper wet sheet of the wet sheet laminate moves to the lower wet sheet according to gravity. In addition, the upper wet sheet close to the outlet has many opportunities to come into contact with air and is likely to dry. Therefore, when taking out the upper wet sheet of the wet sheet laminate from the outlet provided at the upper part of the container, there is a problem that the wet sheet with a small amount of chemical solution impregnation is taken out.

[0005] In addition, in such a wet sheet storage container, as the number of internal wet sheets decreases when used, the distance from the upper end of the wet sheet laminate to the outlet increases. Therefore, as the wet sheet is used, it becomes easier for the wet sheet to fall into the storage space or become continuous, and there is a problem that the ease of taking out is reduced.

[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and its purpose is to provide a wet wipe storage container that prevents wet wipes with a small amount of liquid impregnation from being removed, and maintains a certain level of ease of removal even when the number of wipes decreases.

[0014] Hereinafter, embodiments of the wet wipe storage container according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the embodiments described below are subject to various technically preferred limitations for carrying out the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments and illustrated examples.

[0015] Furthermore, in the following explanation, as shown in each figure, the side of the wet wipe storage container with the dispensing hole will be referred to as "bottom," the opposite side as "top," the side to which the wet wipe storage container and the opening / closing lid are connected will be referred to as "rear," the opposite side as "front," the right side when viewed from the front will be referred to as "right," and the left side as "left." The axis along the front-to-back direction will be referred to as the X-axis, the axis along the left-to-right direction as the Y-axis, and the axis along the up-to-down direction as the Z-axis. In other words, even when the wet wipe storage container is turned upside down, the up-and-down direction will be defined and explained based on the side with the dispensing hole.

[0016] [Configuration of the Embodiment] The wet wipe storage container 100 of this embodiment includes, for example, as shown in Figures 1A to 2B, a container body 10 having an outlet hole 123a on its lower side for taking out one wet wipe from a stack of wet wipes L stored in an internal storage space S, an opening / closing lid 20 that allows the outlet hole 123a to be opened and closed, and legs 30 provided on the container body 10 to separate the container body 10 from the mounting surface.

[0017] (Container body) The container body 10 is made of a material such as hard plastic, PP (polypropylene), POM (polyacetal), or ABS resin, and as shown in each figure, it is formed in a roughly rectangular parallelepiped shape, with the left-right direction being longer than the up-down and front-back directions. As shown in Figure 1A, for example, it is divided into an upper part 11 that constitutes the upper side of the container body 10 and a lower part 12 that constitutes the lower side of the container body 10, above the center in the up-down direction. As shown in Figure 1B, the upper part 11 and the lower part 12 are connected at the rear surface of the container body 10 by a connecting part 13.

[0018] The container body 10 is formed from a rigid material. Examples of rigid materials that can be used include polyethylene and polypropylene. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 1A and 1B, the container body 10 is formed such that, when the upper part 11 and lower part 12 of the container body are combined and the internal storage space S is closed, the overall dimensions are preferably 60 mm to 150 mm in the X direction, more preferably 80 mm to 100 mm, preferably 80 mm to 200 mm in the Y direction, more preferably 145 mm to 165 mm, preferably 30 mm to 100 mm in the Z direction, and more preferably 50 mm to 70 mm. The thickness of each surface is preferably 0.5 mm to 3 mm, more preferably 1 mm to 2 mm. With this size and thickness, high molding efficiency can be achieved while also obtaining sufficient strength for practical use.

[0019] Furthermore, the upper part 11 of the container body, the lower part 12 of the container body, and the connecting part 13 are integrally formed by methods such as injection molding (two-color molding) from a productivity standpoint. However, it is also possible to form the upper part 11 of the container body and the lower part 12 of the container body separately and connect them rotatably using hinges or the like.

[0020] The point at which the container body 10 is divided into the upper part 11 and the lower part 12 may be near the center in the vertical direction. However, it is preferable that the division occurs above the center in the vertical direction, as this reduces the risk of pinching the end seal portion of the packaging when the storage space S is closed while storing the wet sheet laminate L covered with a predetermined packaging.

[0021] {Upper part of the container} As shown in Figures 1A and 2A, the upper part 11 of the container body is formed in a roughly rectangular parallelepiped shape, for example, with a roughly rectangular opening on its lower surface. At the lower end, an annular outer edge portion 111 and an annular inner edge portion 112 are formed, which are located inside the outer edge portion 111 and protrude downward from the outer edge portion 111. In addition, a handle portion 113 is formed at the lower end of the front surface of the upper part 11 of the container body for gripping when exposing the storage space S inside the container body 10.

[0022] [Outer edge / Inner edge] As shown in Figure 2A, the outer edge 111 and the inner edge 112 are both annular and are formed at the lower end of the upper part 11 of the container body. In particular, the inner edge 112 is located inside the outer edge 111 and protrudes downwards from the outer edge 111, and is formed so that when the storage space S is closed, the inner edge 112 fits into the groove 121 of the lower part 12 of the container body, which will be described later.

[0023] [Handle section] The handle portion 113 is formed integrally with the upper part of the container body 11 at the center of the front surface of the upper part of the container body 11, protruding in an arch shape from the front surface, and a gap is formed between it and the front surface of the upper part of the container body 11 for the user to hook their fingers into. The user can expose the storage space S by grasping the handle portion 113 and rotating the upper part of the container body 11 using the connecting portion 13 as a pivot point.

[0024] Furthermore, it is preferable that the portion where the inner surface of the handle portion 113 and the front surface of the upper part 11 of the container body intersect has an R shape. Furthermore, the handle portion 113 does not need to have an arched shape; it is sufficient if it protrudes from the front surface of the upper part 11 of the container body and is shaped in a way that allows the user to grasp it.

[0025] <Locking part> Furthermore, as shown in Figure 2A, the inner surface of the handle portion 113 facing the front surface of the container body 10 is provided with, for example, two locking portions 1131, 1131, which are designed to maintain the closed state by engaging with the engagement projection 128 on the lower part 12 of the container body, which will be described later, when the storage space S is closed. The spacing between the two locking parts 1131, 1131 is arbitrary, but it is preferable that it be wider than the width of a typical user's finger.

[0026] {Bottom of the container body} The lower part 12 of the container body is formed in a roughly rectangular parallelepiped shape with a roughly rectangular opening on its upper surface. As shown in Figure 2A, an annular groove 121 is formed at the upper end. As shown in Figure 2B, a recess 122 is formed on the outer surface near the center of the lower part, and a removal section 123 is provided within the recess 122, which has a removal hole 123a in the center for removing one wet sheet from the storage space S. A storage recess 125 for storing a biasing member 124 is formed at the rear end of the recess 122, and a locking means 126 for opening and closing the opening / closing lid 20 is formed at the front end. As shown in Figure 3, a mounting section 127 for placing a stack of wet sheets L is formed within the storage space S.

[0027] [Concave groove] As shown in Figure 2A, the groove portion 121 is annular and is formed at the upper end of the lower part 12 of the container body so that the inner edge portion 112 of the upper part 11 of the container body engages with it when closing the storage space S, and comprises an outer peripheral wall portion 1211 and an inner peripheral wall portion 1212.

[0028] <Outer wall / inner wall> The outer peripheral wall portion 1211 is formed as the outer peripheral wall surface of the lower part 12 of the container body, and when closing the storage space S, it abuts against the outer edge portion 111 of the upper part 11 of the container body. The inner circumferential wall portion 1212 is formed as the inner circumferential wall surface of the lower part 12 of the container body, and has a portion that is higher than the outer circumferential wall portion 1211 on the rear surface of the lower part 12 of the container body. When the storage space S is closed, the inner edge portion 112 of the upper part 11 of the container body comes into contact with this higher portion and is guided into the groove portion 121, thereby maintaining the airtightness of the storage space S.

[0029] [Recess] As shown in Figure 2B, the recess 122 is formed near the center of the lower part 12 of the container body in a plan view. Figure 2B illustrates the case where the recess 122 is approximately rectangular, but the specific shape of the recess 122 is not limited to this. The depth of the recess 122 in the Z direction is preferably 5 mm to 20 mm when viewed from the bottom. The size in plan view is not particularly limited as long as it is possible to form an extraction hole 123a inside, but it is preferably 40 mm to 80 mm in the X direction and 40 mm to 120 mm in the Y direction.

[0030] [Ejecting part] The extraction portion 123 is formed near the center of the recess 122 in a plan view, and is made of an elastic material with a thickness of 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm. A roughly spherical bulge is formed approximately in the center of the extraction portion 123, and an extraction hole 123a is formed in this bulge.

[0031] As the elastic material forming the dispensing section 123, elastic materials such as elastomers, TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer), and rubber can be used. In terms of hardness, from the viewpoint of molding efficiency and ease of dispensing, it is preferable that it be between 20 and 90 as measured according to JIS K 6253 (Type A durometer).

[0032] <Ejection hole> The removal hole 123a is a hole formed near the center of the removal section 123 in a plan view, which connects to the storage space S.

[0033] For example, Figure 2B illustrates a case where the extraction hole 123a has a shape in which each side of a triangle protrudes inward in an arc shape, and three slits intersect at the centroid point, forming a roughly inverted Y shape, connecting each vertex to the centroid point. However, it is not limited to this. That is, the number of slits may be fewer or more, and the shape is not limited to this. For example, the extraction hole 123a may be formed by adding two cross-shaped slits to the extraction section 123.

[0034] Alternatively, the container body may be configured such that the dispensing portion 123 is not provided at the bottom 12, and instead, for example, the dispensing hole 123a is formed in the recess 122. However, it is preferable that the area around the dispensing hole 123a is formed by the dispensing portion 123, as this provides appropriate resistance to the wet wipes and prevents the next wet wipe from being pulled out too far after the wet wipe stored in the storage space S has been pulled out. Furthermore, this effect can be further enhanced if the dispensing portion 123 is shaped to protrude toward the center of the dispensing hole 123a, as shown in Figure 2B.

[0035] [Biasing member] The biasing member 124 is a strip-shaped member made of an elastic material, and is formed to have a width preferably of 2 mm to 30 mm, more preferably of 8 mm to 10 mm, and a thickness preferably of 0.5 mm to 3 mm, more preferably of 1 mm to 2 mm.

[0036] One end of the biasing member 124 is fixed to the rear of the recess 122, and the other end is fixed to the insertion portion 23 (described later) of the opening / closing lid 20, biasing the opening / closing lid 20 in the opening direction to raise it upright. When the user presses the locking means 126, the opening / closing lid 20 is opened by rotating the connection point with the lower part 12 of the container body at the rear as the axis of rotation.

[0037] The biasing member 124 is formed to extend as shown in Figure 2B when no force is applied, so that when the opening / closing lid 20 is closed as shown in Figure 1B and the biasing member 124 is bent, a force is generated that tries to return it to the state shown in Figure 2B. This makes it possible to bias the opening / closing lid 20 to rotate backward relative to the lower part 12 of the container body, with the connection between the rear opening / closing lid 20 and the lower part 12 of the container body as the axis of rotation.

[0038] [Storage recess] As shown in Figure 2B, the storage recess 125 is a recess for storing the bent portion of the biasing member 124 when the biasing member 124 is pushed upward when the opening / closing lid 20 is closed. As shown in Figure 2B, the storage recess 125 is formed to be concave further upward in the Z direction than the recess 122, behind the outlet portion 123 within the recess 122 and near the front of the biasing member 124. The shape of the storage recess 125 is not particularly limited, but for example, it can be a roughly rectangular parallelepiped that is longer in the Y direction than in the X direction, and it should have enough space to store the biasing member 124 that is pushed in and bent by the opening / closing lid 20 when the opening / closing lid 20 is closed.

[0039] [Locking means] The locking means 126 is formed in the shape of a button and includes a body-side claw portion (not shown). The body-side claw portion engages with the opening / closing lid-side claw portion 21 (described later) of the opening / closing lid 20, thereby locking the opening / closing lid 20 in a closed state. When the user presses the locking means 126, the engagement between the body-side claw portion and the opening / closing lid-side claw portion 21 is released, and the opening / closing lid 20 is opened.

[0040] [Mounting section] The mounting portion 127 is a protrusion provided to project upward from the inner surface of the storage space S of the container body 10, as shown in Figure 3, for example, and separates the wet sheet at the lower end of the wet sheet laminate L from the dispensing hole 123a by a predetermined distance. This prevents the packaging of the wet sheet laminate L from flying out of the dispensing hole 123a or the wet sheet from getting caught in the dispensing hole 123a.

[0041] Specifically, it is preferable to provide the mounting portion 127 such that the removal hole 123a and the wet sheet at the lower end of the wet sheet laminate L are separated by 5 mm to 10 mm. When the removal hole 123a and the wet sheet at the lower end are separated by this distance, it is possible to suitably achieve both the above function and the ease of removing the wet sheet from the removal hole 123a.

[0042] [Engaging protrusion] As shown in Figure 2A, the engaging projection 128 is a projection that protrudes forward integrally with the lower part of the container body 12 at approximately the center of the upper end of the front surface of the lower part of the container body 12, and the locking parts 1131, 1131 engage with it when the storage space S is closed.

[0043] The engaging projection 128 is formed such that its length in the Y direction is greater than the sum of the distance between the two locking portions 1131, 1131 and the respective lengths of the two locking portions 1131, 1131 in the Y direction.

[0044] {connection part} The connecting part 13 connects the upper part 11 of the container body and the lower part 12 of the container body. Furthermore, the container body 10 is formed so that the upper part 11 of the container body can rotate in a direction parallel to the front-to-back direction with the connecting part 13 as a pivot point. This configuration allows the storage space S to be exposed to the outside, as shown in Figure 2A, and enables refilling of the wet wipe stack L.

[0045] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 1B, the connecting portion 13 is formed to be thinner than the other parts of the container body 10. This configuration makes the connecting portion 13 more flexible, and makes it easier to rotate the upper part 11 of the container body using the connecting portion 13 as a pivot point.

[0046] (Open / close lid) As shown in Figure 2B, the opening / closing lid 20 is a flat, roughly rectangular member that is rotatably connected to the rear of the recess 122 in the lower part 12 of the container body, and is made of the same rigid material as the container body 10. The opening / closing lid 20 is equipped with an opening / closing lid side claw portion 21 on the front side when closed, and an opening / closing lid side sealing ring portion 22 and an insertion portion 23 for inserting the biasing member 124 on the upper side.

[0047] {Opening / closing lid side claw part} As shown in Figure 2B, the opening / closing lid side claw portion 21 is a claw portion that protrudes forward from the opening / closing lid 20. The opening / closing lid side claw portion 21 engages with the main body side claw portion of the locking means 126 to lock the opening / closing lid 20 in a closed state. When the user presses the locking means 126, the engagement between the main body side claw portion and the opening / closing lid side claw portion 21 is released, and the opening / closing lid 20 is opened by the biasing member 124.

[0048] {Opening / closing lid side sealing ring} As shown in Figure 2B, the sealing ring portion 22 on the opening / closing lid side protrudes upward in an annular shape when the opening / closing lid 20 is closed, and is formed approximately in the center of the upper surface so that its inner circumferential surface contacts the outer circumference of the dispensing portion 123 of the lower part 12 of the container body.

[0049] {insertion section} As shown in Figure 2B, the insertion portion 23 is a cylindrical portion for inserting and securing the biasing member 124 to the rear end of the opening / closing lid 20.

[0050] (leg) As shown in each figure, the leg portion 30 is a plurality of rod-shaped members provided so as to protrude outward from the outer surface of the lower part of the container body 10, and is made of, for example, hard plastic, PP, or stainless steel.

[0051] The length of the legs 30 in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction) is preferably 80 mm to 150 mm. If the length of the legs 30 is 80 mm or more, it will be at a sufficient height to reach under the container body 10 and open the lid 20. If the length of the legs 30 is 150 mm or less, it will be at a convenient height even when the wet wipe storage container 100 is placed on a desk or the like.

[0052] Furthermore, the length of the legs 30 may be adjustable. Specific methods for this adjustment include screw-type adjustments as shown in Figure 4A, or pin-and-hole-type adjustments as shown in Figure 4B; any known method can be applied as appropriate, and there are no particular limitations. Making the length of the legs 30 adjustable allows each user to adjust the height to their preference and effectively utilize the space between the container body 10 and the mounting surface. Of course, if the length of the legs 30 is adjustable, it is preferable that the length range be 80mm to 150mm.

[0053] Furthermore, the legs 30 may be detachable from the container body 10. This allows the wet wipe storage container 100 to be used as a general wet wipe storage container with the lower part 12 of the container body facing upwards, as shown in Figure 5.

[0054] Furthermore, while each figure illustrates a case where the wet wipe storage container 100 is provided with four legs 30, it is not limited to this, as long as the wet wipe storage container 100 can stand stably on its own. The location where the legs 30 are provided is not limited to the bottom surface of the container body 10, but may also be on the sides or other parts.

[0055] Furthermore, while each figure illustrates the case where the longitudinal lengths of the multiple legs 30 are approximately equal, the case is not limited to this. For example, by making the longitudinal length of the front legs 30 shorter than that of the rear legs 30, the center of gravity of the wet wipe storage container 100 is shifted to the front, which prevents the container from tipping over even if the center of gravity of the wet wipe storage container 100 shifts to the rear by the amount of the upper part 11 of the container body when the storage space S is opened.

[0056] (Wet wipe laminate) The wet sheet laminate L is made up of multiple wet sheets impregnated with a predetermined chemical solution, which are laminated together.

[0057] {wet wipes} Wet wipes are sheets impregnated with a liquid solution, and include, for example, wet tissues, kitchen cleaners, toilet cleaners, and antiperspirant wipes.

[0058] The sheet material of the wet wipe is preferably a nonwoven fabric manufactured using a predetermined fiber as the fiber material by a well-known technique such as spunlace, air-through, air-laid, point bond, spunbond, or needle punch.

[0059] Examples of specified fibers include cellulose fibers such as rayon, lyocell, Tencel, and cotton; polyolefin fibers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinyl alcohol; polyester fibers such as polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene terephthalate; and polyamide fibers such as nylon. These may be used individually or in combination of two or more types.

[0060] Furthermore, any liquid solution can be used as the impregnation of the wet wipes, depending on the intended use of the wet wipes, but it is preferable to use one that contains, for example, purified water, a preservative, a pH adjuster, a surfactant, etc.

[0061] In Figures 2A and 3, the wet wipe laminate L is shown to be directly stored in the storage space S, but this is not the only case. For example, the wet wipe laminate L may be packaged in a predetermined packaging to further prevent evaporation of the liquid. As the predetermined packaging, for example, a single or composite material of synthetic resin film such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyester, polyamide, or polyvinyl chloride, or a composite film made by laminating these synthetic resin films with aluminum foil or paper can be used.

[0062] [Explanation of effects] As described above, the wet wipe storage container 100 according to this embodiment comprises a container body 10 having a storage space S in which a stack of wet wipes L is stored, an opening / closing lid 20 that can open and close an opening hole 123a provided on the lower surface of the container body 10, and legs 30 provided on the container body 10 so as to protrude outward from the lower surface and separate the container body 10 from the mounting surface.

[0063] According to this configuration, since the dispensing hole 123a is provided on the lower surface of the container body 10, the lower wet sheets of the wet sheet stack L stored in the container body 10 are more easily exposed to air, and the liquid medicine evaporates more easily, while the liquid medicine impregnated in the upper wet sheets moves to the lower wet sheets due to gravity. Therefore, even the lower wet sheets in the wet sheet laminate L are impregnated with a predetermined amount of chemical solution, which prevents wet sheets with insufficient chemical solution from being removed.

[0064] Furthermore, with this configuration, since the dispensing hole 123a is provided on the lower surface of the container body 10, the distance between the bottommost wet sheet in the wet sheet stack L and the dispensing hole 123a remains constant, and a consistent level of ease of dispensing is maintained even when the number of stored wet sheets decreases.

[0065] Furthermore, the container body 10 can accommodate the wet wipe stack L from all sides except the bottom surface of the container body 10. For example, in this embodiment, the storage space S can be opened by rotating the upper part 11 of the container body with the connecting part 13 as a pivot point, thereby allowing the wet wipe stack L to be stored.

[0066] In conventional sheet storage containers, the refill opening for storing the wet sheet laminate L is provided at the bottom of the container, and refilling the sheets requires turning the container upside down to open the refill opening, which is cumbersome. However, with the configuration of the present invention, it is not necessary to turn the container body 10 upside down, and the wet sheet laminate L can be easily refilled.

[0067] Furthermore, the container body 10 includes a mounting section 127 on which the wet sheet laminate L is placed, and the mounting section 127 separates the wet sheet at the lower end of the wet sheet laminate L from the dispensing hole 123a. With this configuration, the dispensing hole 123a and the wet sheet laminate L are separated, which prevents the packaging of the wet sheet laminate L from flying out of the dispensing hole 123a or the wet sheets from getting caught in the dispensing hole 123a.

[0068] Furthermore, the length of the leg portion 30 is adjustable in the longitudinal direction. This configuration allows each user to adjust the height of the wet wipe storage container 100 to a height that suits them, and to make effective use of the space between the container body 10 and the mounting surface.

[0069] Furthermore, the legs 30 are detachably attached to the container body 10. With this configuration, the container body 10 can be used as a conventional wet wipe storage container by removing the legs 30 and inverting it.

[0070] [Differentiation] Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications are possible, including the scope of the invention as described in the claims and its equivalents.

[0071] For example, Figure 3 illustrates a mounting section 127 with a constant height in the left-right direction, but it is not limited to this. Specifically, the mounting section 127 may be such that its height decreases towards the center of the container body 10, as shown in Figure 6A, or such that its height increases towards the center of the container body 10, as shown in Figure 6B. However, since the wet sheet laminate L is flexible and can deform, the mounting section 127 shown in Figure 3 or Figure 6B is particularly preferable, as it ensures that the wet sheet laminate L and the dispensing section 123 are always separated by a sufficient distance.

[0072] Furthermore, in the above example, the container body 10 is divided into an upper part 11 and a lower part 12, which are connected by a connecting part 13, and the storage space S is opened by rotating the upper part 11 of the container body with the connecting part 13 as a pivot point. However, the configuration of the container body 10 and the configuration for opening the storage space S of the container body 10 are not limited to this.

[0073] In other words, for example, a known configuration may be adopted as appropriate, such as a door-type configuration in which the container body 10 is made into a single container, a handle portion 113 is provided on one of the surfaces including the bottom surface, and the two surfaces are joined by only one edge, and the storage space S is opened by gripping the handle portion 113 and rotating the one surface using that one edge as a pivot point.

[0074] Furthermore, by applying a known method to the vicinity of the outlet hole 123a as appropriate, measures may be taken to prevent the chemical solution from leaking out of the outlet hole 123a of the wet sheet laminate L. [Explanation of Symbols]
