Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-86789

  By using the above-mentioned aerosol container directly by the user's hand, the contents can be directly sprayed to a place where the user is conscious. For this reason, according to such an aerosol container, a user's intention can be directly reflected in the use.

  However, on the contrary, the main purpose is to inject the contents to the outside world, and it is not necessary for the user to use the aerosol container directly by hand until there is no need to be aware of the place to inject the contents appropriately. Unusable and there is room for improvement.

  Therefore, the inventor of the present application loads the aerosol container into the main body, arranges the pressing button on the lid that closes the main body, and operates this to operate the contents even in a state of being fixed to a fixed object such as a desk. I came up with the technology that can be sprayed.

  However, when the push button is arranged on the lid, the case is placed at a relatively low position. Therefore, if the button is pushed in by mistake, the contents may be unintentionally injected by the user. For this reason, this inventor came to recognize that it is necessary to prevent that a content is injected by incorrect button operation.

  The object of the present invention is that it can be used freely as an aerosol container, or can be used fixedly as an aerosol container, and can prevent an unexpected injection in a state where the aerosol container is set. An object of the present invention is to provide a fixed injection case including a novel aerosol container.

  A fixed injection case including an aerosol container according to the present invention includes an aerosol container in which contents are injected by pressing down a head provided on the container body, an overcap that is detachably held on the aerosol container, and an overcap A press button disposed on the lid, including a main body having a loading recess into which the aerosol container with the cap removed is loaded, and a lid that forms a storage space for the aerosol container inside the main body. By pressing down the head of the aerosol container with the aerosol container in which the contents from the head are ejected to the outside through the lid, and the overcap is provided on the outer surface of the lid with the cover of the push button. The first fitting part, the overcap is detachably fitted, and the first fitting Different and is characterized in that a second mating portion.

  In the present invention, the first fitting portion is a protrusion or groove that is detachably fitted to the end portion of the overcap, and the second fitting portion is the end portion of the overcap. On the other hand, it can be a ridge, a groove, or a depression (recessed portion) that is detachably fitted.

  In the present invention, if the aerosol container is placed on the loading recess provided in the main body and the lid is closed, the contents can be sprayed in a fixed direction simply by operating the spray switch. Further, since the aerosol container is loaded into the loading recess of the main body, it can be freely fixed to or removed from the main body by opening the lid.

  In the present invention, a first fitting portion is provided on the outer surface of the lid so that the overcap can be detachably fitted so that the overcap removed from the aerosol container serves as a cover for the push button. Therefore, if the overcap is fitted to the lid, the push switch is not operated by mistake. For this reason, the unexpected injection in the state which set the aerosol container can be prevented.

  Therefore, according to the present invention, one aerosol container can be taken out from the case as an aerosol container and sprayed freely, or the aerosol container can be sprayed in a state of being fixed to the case. It is possible to prevent unintended injection in the state of failure. In addition, according to the present invention, since the second fitting portion is provided on the outer surface of the lid, if the overcap is fitted to the second fitting portion, the overcap is lost. It is possible to make the injection switch operable.

It is a partial cross section figure which shows the state which operated the same form and injected the contents from the side.

  Hereinafter, a fixed injection case including an aerosol container according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  1-4 is the 1st form of the case for fixed injection provided with the aerosol container which is this invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes an aerosol container. In the aerosol container 1, a space formed inside the container body 2 is filled with a content such as a liquid fragrance as a content together with a compressed gas. A head 3 is attached to the upper side of the container body 2 via a stem (not shown). A nozzle 4 is provided integrally with the head 3. The nozzle 4 is inclined upward as shown in FIG. The nozzle 4 is formed with an opening (hereinafter referred to as “injection hole”) 4 a that communicates with the inside of the container body 2 through a stem. Thereby, when the head 3 is pushed down, the contents are sprayed in a mist form through the spray holes 4a of the nozzle 4.

  Reference numeral 6 denotes an overcap that is detachably held on the aerosol container 1. The overcap 6 includes a peripheral wall 6a formed so as to surround the head 3, and a top wall 6b that closes the upper end of the peripheral wall 6a. The head 3 is introduced when the lower end 6e of the peripheral wall 6a covers the aerosol container 1. Form an opening to be made. The peripheral wall 6a is detachably fitted to a mount cup winding portion 1r whose inner peripheral surface on the lower end 6e side is connected to the container body 2. Thereby, even when the aerosol container 1 is carried alone, the head 3 is not erroneously operated. Therefore, even if the aerosol container 1 is carried alone, the contents are not ejected from a state unexpected by the user.

  Reference numeral 10 denotes a main body having a loading recess C in which the aerosol container 1 is loaded. As shown in FIG. 2B and the like, the loading recess C supports the body 2b by contact with the bottom wall 11a that supports the bottom 2a by contact with the bottom 2a of the container body 2 and the body 2b. Bottom walls 11a and 11b. As shown in FIG. 3 and the like, the bottom walls 11a and 11b become two inclined walls that form a V-shaped cross section by being inclined toward the bottom of the main body 10. The bottom wall 11a supports the aerosol container 1 from the bottom 2a side by contacting the bottom 2a of the container body 2 obliquely over the entire surface. Moreover, the bottom wall 11b is supporting the aerosol container 1 from the trunk | drum 2b side by contacting diagonally with the trunk | drum 2b. Thereby, the bottom walls 11a and 11b position the aerosol container 1 in a relatively stable state by its own weight, as shown in FIG.

  The loading recess C includes two side walls 12a and 12b that are integrally connected to the bottom walls 11a and 11b. As shown in FIG. 2B and the like, the side walls 12a and 12b are in contact with the side surface of the body portion 2b of the container body, thereby fitting and holding the body portion 2b. Thereby, the side walls 12a and 12b position the aerosol container 1 in the trunk width direction as shown in FIG. 2 (b).

Reference numeral 20 denotes a lid that forms the storage space R ₁ of the aerosol container inside the main body 10. The lid 20 and the main body 10 constitute a fixed injection case that houses the aerosol container 1 and enables the content to be injected. The lid 20 has a flat top wall 21, and an injection switch 30 is provided on the top wall 21.

The injection switch 30 is a cantilever support piece (tongue piece) formed by a U-shaped slit S formed in the top wall 21 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3 and the like, the injection switch 30 is integrally provided with a push button 32 that bulges outside the lid 20 on the free end 31 side. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a protrusion 34 that can come into contact with the head 3 is integrally provided on the back surface of the injection switch 30 on the fixed end 33 side. Accordingly, when the push button 32 shown in FIG. 3 is pushed into the storage space R ₁ as shown in FIG. 4, elastic deformation occurs on the fixed end 33 side as shown in FIG. Can be pushed into the container body 2 side.

Furthermore, the injection switch 30, a through hole A ₁ is formed as the injection hole 4a of the nozzle 4 is released to the outside world. Thus, by being pushed down the head 3 by depressing the push button 32, the contents of the injection hole 4a, as shown in FIG. 4, is injected to the outside through the through-hole A _1. Then, when the push button 32 is released, the ejection switch 30 returns to the position shown in FIG. 3 by the restoring force generated on the fixed end 33 side or by the return of the head 3.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since the aerosol container 1 is placed obliquely with the bottom 2a and the body 2b supported with respect to the recess C, the aerosol container 1 is placed on the bottom walls 11a and 11b of the recess C. The aerosol container 1 can be positioned in a relatively stable state by a simple operation simply by placing it. Further, in this embodiment, since the bottom wall 11a of the loading recess C supports the bottom 2a of the aerosol container 1, the contents can be simply removed by pushing down the head 3 as in the case where the aerosol container 1 is used alone. Can be injected. For this reason, if the aerosol container 1 is placed on the bottom walls 11a and 11b of the loading recess C and the lid body 20 is closed, the contents can be sprayed in a fixed direction simply by operating the spray switch 30. Can do. Further, since the aerosol container 1 is placed on the loading recess C, it can be freely fixed to or removed from the main body 10 by opening the lid 20.

In addition, in order to fit and hold the overcap 6 on the outer surface of the top wall 21 so that the overcap 6 removed from the aerosol container 1 becomes a cover of the push button 32 as shown in FIG. The first fitting portion 22 is integrally provided. The first fitting portions 22 are provided at positions on both sides of the injection switch 30 as indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. Each of the first fitting portions 22 is a protrusion whose outer peripheral surface is detachably fitted to the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall 6a. As a result, when the overcap 6 is fitted to the first fitting portion 22 of the lid 20, the pressing switch 32 is stored in the space R ₂ formed in the overcap 6 as shown in FIG. 3. Thus, the push switch 32 is not operated by mistake. For this reason, if the overcap 6 is fitted to the first fitting portion 22, it is possible to prevent unexpected injection in a state where the aerosol container 1 is set.

  Therefore, according to this embodiment, one aerosol container 1 is taken out from the case as the aerosol container 1 and sprayed freely, or the aerosol container 1 is fixed to the case and sprayed in a state of being placed on a desk or floor. At the same time, it is possible to prevent unexpected injection in a state where the aerosol container 1 is set.

  In addition, the 1st fitting part 22 shall also be able to detachably fit the inner peripheral surface with the outer peripheral surface of the surrounding wall 6a as the modification. In addition, when the first fitting portion 22 is a ridge as in this embodiment, each ridge 22 may be further divided into a plurality of parts as long as it is arranged on both sides with the injection switch 30 interposed therebetween. It can be provided intermittently. Further, the protrusion can be replaced with a groove disposed on both sides of the injection switch 30. Furthermore, when the 1st fitting part 22 is made into a protrusion or a groove, it can also be set as the cyclic | annular thing provided so that the injection switch 30 might be surrounded. If a protrusion or a groove is employed as the first fitting portion 22, the overcap 6 can be attached and detached with a simple configuration, but is not limited thereto. That is, the first fitting portion 22 can employ various configurations as long as the overcap 6 can be detachably fitted.

  By the way, the overcap 6 used when carrying the aerosol container 1 may be lost if the aerosol container 1 is not securely stored after the aerosol container 1 is stored in the case. For this reason, when this inventor used the aerosol container 1 independently, it also discovered that handling of the overcap 6 must also be considered.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 and the like, a second fitting portion 23 for fitting and holding the overcap 6 is further provided on the outer surface of the top wall 21. As shown in FIG. 4 etc., the 2nd fitting part 23 becomes a hollow (recessed part) in which the inner peripheral surface fits with the outer peripheral surface of the surrounding wall 6a so that attachment or detachment is possible. Thereby, if the overcap 6 is fitted to the second fitting portion 23, the injection switch 30 can be brought into an operable state without losing the overcap 6.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a protrusion integrally provided at an interval in the width direction (short direction) of the main body 10 from the vertical wall 11c that stands integrally with the bottom wall 11b. At the tips of the protrusions 13, inclined surfaces 13 f that are in contact with the vertical ribs 5 provided on the side surfaces of the head 3 are formed. Thereby, only by loading the aerosol container 1, as shown in FIG. 2B and the like, the orientation of the nozzle 4 can be easily positioned and the head 3 can be rotated with respect to the container body 2. Can be prevented. A through hole A ₂ is formed below each of the protrusions 13.

  In this embodiment, the lid body 20 has a split groove portion 24, and is pivotally supported by the shaft 14 provided in the main body 10 via the split groove portion 24. Thereby, the attachment and detachment of the aerosol container 1 can be performed by an easy operation of simply rotating the lid 20 with respect to the main body 10. The lid 20 further has an engagement recess 25 that is detachably fitted to the engagement protrusion 15 provided on the main body 10. Thereby, the unexpected opening | release of the cover body 20 is prevented.

  Further, the means for pivotally supporting the lid 20 with respect to the main body 10 is not limited to this, and various configurations are possible as long as the lid 20 can be rotated with respect to the main body 10. Can be adopted.

  In addition, according to the present invention, the lid 20 is not rotated with respect to the main body 10, but, for example, two guides formed on the upper edges 16 a to 16 c forming the opening of the loading recess C as in this embodiment. By using the wall 17, the lid 20 can be detachably fitted by the guide wall 17.

  5-7 is the 2nd form of the case for fixed injection provided with the aerosol container which is this invention. Hereinafter, the same parts as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

In this embodiment, the injection switch 40 is a rotating member having a shaft portion 41 that is rotatably held by the main body 10. The injection switch 40 has a push button 42 that bulges outside the lid 20 from the opening A ₃ formed in the lid 20 (the top wall 21) behind the shaft 41 (position farther from the nozzle 4). It is provided integrally. A protrusion 43 that can contact the head 3 is integrally provided on the front side (position close to the nozzle 4) of the shaft portion 41. Accordingly, when the push button 42 shown in FIG. 6 is pushed into the storage space R ₁ as shown in FIG. 7, the projection 43 is formed in the head 3 by causing rotation around the shaft portion 41 as shown in FIG. Can be pushed into the container body 2 side. Then, when the pressing of the push button 42 is released, the injection switch 40 returns to the position shown in FIG.

  Similarly to the first embodiment, in this embodiment, if the aerosol container 1 is placed on the bottom walls 11a and 11b of the loading recess C and the lid body 20 is closed, the contents can be kept constant only by operating the injection switch 40. It can be sprayed in a fixed direction. Further, since the aerosol container 1 is loaded in the loading recess C, the lid 20 can be freely fixed to or removed from the main body 10 when the lid 20 is opened.

In addition, on the outer surface of the top wall 21, as in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 and the like, the overcap 6 removed from the aerosol container 1 becomes the cover of the push button 42 so as to cover the overcap. A first fitting portion 22 for fitting and holding 6 is integrally provided. Accordingly, when the overcap 6 is fitted to the first fitting portion 22, the pressing switch 42 is accommodated in the space R ₂ formed in the overcap 6 as shown in FIG. 6. The push switch 42 is not operated by mistake. For this reason, similarly to the first embodiment, it is possible to prevent unexpected injection in a state where the aerosol container 1 is set.

  Therefore, according to this embodiment, one aerosol container 1 can be taken out of the case as the aerosol container 1 and sprayed freely, or the aerosol container 1 can be sprayed in a state of being fixed to the case. Unexpected injection can be prevented when 1 is set.

  Also in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 and the like, a second fitting portion 23 for fitting and holding the overcap 6 is further provided on the outer surface of the top wall 21. Similarly to the first embodiment, the second fitting portion 23 is detachably fitted with its outer peripheral surface to the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall 6a as shown in FIG. Thereby, like the 1st form, if the overcap 6 is fitted to the 2nd fitting part 23, the injection switch 30 can be made into the state which can be operated, without losing the overcap 6. FIG. .

  In this embodiment, the shaft portion 41 of the injection switch 40 is rotatably supported by the concave portions 18 formed in the guide walls 17 of the main body 10 as shown in FIG. However, according to the present invention, the shaft portion 41 can be pivotally supported on the lid 20 side.

  The above description shows only one embodiment of the present invention, and various modifications can be made according to the present invention. For example, the second fitting portion 23 can have the same configuration as that of the first fitting portion 22. As the second fitting portion 23, if a protrusion, a groove, or a depression (recessed portion) is adopted, the attachment and detachment of the overcap 6 can be realized with a simple configuration like the first fitting portion 22. It is not limited to this. That is, as long as the second fitting portion 23 has a configuration that allows the overcap 6 to be detachably fitted, various configurations can be employed. Furthermore, each component of the above-described embodiment can be used in combination as appropriate.

  The present invention can employ an aerosol container filled with various contents such as a fragrance as long as the contents are ejected by pressing down the head provided in the container body.
