Description

The present invention relates to a piercing hole cleaning tool set, and in particular to a piercing hole cleaning tool set that allows easy and hassle-free cleaning of piercing holes in the earlobe for inserting earrings.

Piercings are generally known as jewelry that is attached to the earlobe, and a type of piercing is known in which a hole (hereafter referred to as a "piercing hole") is made in the earlobe and a piercing needle (piercing post) is inserted into the piercing hole.

Here, since the piercing hole is a relatively small hole, it is difficult to clean, and in many cases the piercing hole is left uncleaned, and occasionally when the piercing hole needs cleaning, a wet napkin or the like is used.
Even with this wet napkin, it was difficult to clean the inside of the piercing hole, and all I could do was clean the surface area.

Patent No. 3755874 JP 2019-181035 A

However, when a person tries to clean the piercing hole by themselves using a wet napkin while looking in the mirror, it is difficult to clean the small areas as desired, and despite the time and effort spent, the inside of the piercing hole cannot be cleaned.

In addition, to clean the inside of the piercing hole, it is possible to consider, for example, getting help from a third party, but in that case, there is the problem that you are not always free to clean it.

Furthermore, there has been a demand for a cleaning tool set that can be stored indoors and used, and that can also be neatly stored and carried in a bag or the like when going out.
The invention of Patent Document 1 is a piercing hole cleaning set previously proposed by the applicant in response to such demands, which is designed to be convenient to carry around and includes rod-shaped floss for cleaning piercing holes and cleaning solution for easy use.
However, although this piercing hole cleaning tool set is convenient to carry around, if you leave it in your room and use it, you have to use it in the same way as when you go out, which can be a little inconvenient.

In other words, the rod-shaped floss container and cleaning liquid container could not be held upright and propped up, so it was necessary to always hold the rod-shaped floss container and cleaning liquid container with one hand to prevent them from falling over, which resulted in the problem of the hand being occupied.

The present invention aims to provide a piercing hole cleaning tool set that solves all of the above problems and improves usability even when placed indoors.

In order to achieve the above object, the invention described in claim 1 is composed of a floss storage case capable of storing a plurality of rod-shaped flosses, a container body having a cleaning liquid storage section, a set base body capable of holding the floss storage case and the container body upright, and a long cylindrical cap body for use when carrying the floss storage case. The floss storage case is a cylindrical case having a lid body, and the container body is composed of a double cylinder of an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder, a bottom plate is formed at the bottom of the inner cylinder, and the outer cylinder is disposed so as to surround the inner cylinder from the outside and is formed integrally with the inner cylinder, and the outer wall of the inner cylinder and the outer A storage space is formed with the inner wall of the tube, and an opening for filling this storage space with liquid is formed at the upper end of the outer tube, which is the opposite side of the position where the bottom plate of the inner tube is formed in the container body. An upper cap is removably attached to this liquid filling opening to make it watertight, and a long cylindrical cap body is removably attached to the lower end of the outer tube, and a space for storing rod-shaped floss when carried is formed in the internal space area surrounded by the bottom plate of the inner tube and the long cylindrical cap body attached to the lower end of the outer tube. This is a piercing hole cleaning tool set.

Claim 2 is a piercing hole cleaning tool set according to claim 1, characterized in that the rod-shaped floss is made of absorbent and flexible paper rod-shaped floss, and the entire paper rod-shaped floss from its tip to its rear end is passed through the piercing hole.

Claim 3 is a set of pierced hole cleaning tools according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the liquid-impregnated portion of the rod-shaped floss is configured to swell at least in the diametric direction when impregnated with cleaning liquid, and a colored coating portion is formed on the end of the rod-shaped floss opposite the liquid-impregnated portion.

Claim 4 is a piercing hole cleaning tool set according to any one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the storage space is filled with mint water as a cleaning liquid.

When carrying the piercing hole cleaning tool set according to claims 1 to 4 when going out, multiple pieces of rod-shaped floss in the floss storage case are set in the rod-shaped floss storage space of the container body, and the long cylindrical cap body is placed over the outer tube of the container body, and the rod-shaped floss is placed in the rod-shaped floss storage space.

In addition, when using the piercing hole cleaning set while relaxing in one's own room, one can store rod-shaped floss in the floss storage case, remove the long cylindrical cap body that covers the outer tube of the container body from the container body, and hold the floss storage case and the container body upright in a predetermined position on the set base body, allowing one to use the piercing hole cleaning set on a table or desk without having to hold it in one's hands, providing the excellent effect of making it extremely easy to handle compared to when using it outside.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given of an embodiment of a piercing hole cleaning set according to the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
First, the pierced hole cleaning tool set 20 according to the present invention is composed of a floss storage case 1, a container body 2, a set base body 3, and a long cylindrical cap body 11 for carrying.
The floss storage case 1 is a cylindrical case in which a plurality of rod-shaped floss 4 to be inserted into piercing holes are stored, and the floss storage case 1 can be sealed by covering it with a lid 5.

The container body 2 is constructed of a double cylinder consisting of an inner cylinder 6 and an outer cylinder 7, and a bottom plate 8 is formed at the bottom of the inner cylinder 6.
The outer cylinder 7 is disposed so as to surround the inner cylinder 6 from the outside and is formed integrally with the inner cylinder 6 .
The outer wall of the inner cylinder 6 and the inner wall of the outer cylinder 7 form a storage space 14, and the storage space 14 is filled with cleaning liquid.
The cleaning liquid used is an alcohol liquid containing a mint-based fragrance, and when the liquid-impregnated portion 4a of the rod-shaped floss 4 is immersed in the cleaning liquid, the liquid-impregnated portion 4a of the rod-shaped floss 4 swells in the diameter direction.

When cleaning a pierced hole, insert the rod-shaped floss 4 into the pierced hole starting from the tip (thin) opposite the liquid-impregnated portion 4a of the rod-shaped floss, wipe the inner surface of the pierced hole with the swollen liquid-impregnated portion 4a, and then pull out the rod-shaped floss 4 to complete the process.

The liquid filling opening 9 of the storage space 14 of the container body 2 is formed on the side where the bottom plate 8 of the inner tube 6 in the container body 2 is formed, and an upper cap 10 is detachably attached to this liquid filling opening 9 (i.e., the upper end of the container body) so as to be watertight.

A small diameter portion 2a is formed on the end opposite the crowning position of the upper cap 10 of the container body (i.e., the lower end of the container body), and this small diameter portion 2a is covered with a long cylindrical cap body used when carrying the container.

When the piercing hole cleaning tool set 20 of the present invention is not carried around but is to be used indoors at home, the long cylindrical cap body 11 is removed from the container body 2, the small diameter portion 2a of the container body 2 is inserted into the container body stand 13 of the set base body 3, the rod-shaped floss 4 is stored in the floss storage case 1, and the floss storage case 1 is inserted into the floss storage case stand 12 of the set base body 3.

The floss storage case 1 and the floss storage case stand 12 are sized to fit together without any gaps, ensuring a stable upright position when inserted. Similarly, the small diameter portion 2a of the container body 2 and the container body stand 13 are sized to fit together without any gaps, ensuring a stable upright position when inserted.

Next, the rod-shaped floss 4 will be explained. It is made of absorbent and flexible paper rod-shaped floss, and it is particularly preferable to use Japanese paper. This rod-shaped floss 4 is configured to swell in the diameter direction when soaked with cleaning liquid (disinfectant), and is smaller than the diameter of the pierced hole before soaking with cleaning liquid, but its diameter after soaking becomes larger than the diameter of the pierced hole. For this reason, it is not bulky and easy to handle before use, and by soaking the liquid-impregnated portion 4a of the rod-shaped floss 4 in cleaning liquid immediately before use, it will be pressed appropriately against the inner wall of the pierced hole.

A colored coating is formed on one end of the rod-shaped floss 4, and this colored coating serves as a marker to clearly indicate the up-down direction of the rod-shaped floss 4. In addition, the coating resin prevents the rod-shaped floss 4 from swelling, so your hands will not get dirty when you pinch this part with your fingers, and it is also very convenient to insert the side of the colored coating into the piercing hole.

6 shows a container body 2 in which an insertion opening for inserting a rod-shaped floss is formed at the top of the inner cylinder 6, and a bottom plate 8 is provided at the bottom of the inner cylinder 6. The outer cylinder 7 is integrally formed with the inner cylinder 6 so as to surround the inner cylinder 6, so that a storage space 14 is formed by the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6 and the inner wall of the outer cylinder 7, and a liquid filling opening 9 for this storage space 14 is formed at the bottom of the outer cylinder 7.
An upper cap 10 is detachably attached to the upper end of the outer cylinder 7 in a watertight manner.
A rod-shaped floss 4 used as a cleaning tool for pierced holes is stored inside the inner cylinder 6 through the insertion opening, while the storage space 14 is filled with mint water used as a cleaning liquid.

The inner cylinder 6 of the container body 2 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and the upper end of the outer cylinder 7 is integrally connected to the vicinity of the top of the inner cylinder 6. The outer cylinder 7 is also formed in a cylindrical shape like the inner cylinder 6, and an upper cap 10 is fitted onto the upper end of the outer cylinder 7.
An outer cylinder 7 is formed on the outside of the inner cylinder 6, and by surrounding the inner cylinder 6 with this outer cylinder 7, a storage space 14 is formed between the inner wall of the outer cylinder 7 and the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6. In this way, by surrounding the inner cylinder 6 with the outer cylinder 7, the storage space 14 is formed, and the depth dimension of the storage space 14 can be ensured to be sufficiently deep while keeping the overall length of the container body 2 small, and the container body 2 can be made compact.

In addition, by ensuring that the depth dimension of the storage space 14 is sufficiently deep, when mint water is stored in this storage space 14, the depth of the layer of mint water can be ensured sufficiently, and the liquid-impregnated portion 4a of the rod-shaped floss 4 can be efficiently immersed in the mint water.

This cleaning tool set 20 is compactly formed so that it does not get in the way when placed in front of a dressing table, and can also be easily put into a handbag or the like, making it suitable for portability.
In particular, the piercing hole cleaning set 20 of the present invention can be carried without the set base body, and when used indoors, the long cylindrical cap body can be removed and the floss storage case and container body can be stably held by the set base body, making it possible to use the cleaning set without having to hold it in your hands while it is placed on a table.

This invention is used in industries that manufacture piercing cleaning sets.
