Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a degassing device for a spray can that is improved so that the gas inside the can can be easily released.

(Prior Art) Spray-type products are used in a wide range of fields because they are easy to use because they can be used by simply pressing an operation button.

Such spray-type products are used by putting paint, hair styling product, insecticide, etc. into a can container, and spraying out the contents along with the injection of gas as a spraying agent.

It is requested that the gas be completely degassed before disposal.

Conventionally, the method of degassing spray cans was to remove the gas from the surface of the can.
Nails were hammered into the holes to release the gas.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The method of releasing gas by driving a nail into the surface of a can and making a hole has the advantage that it can be done using nails and a hammer, which are commonly found at home. Each time,
Due to the need to prepare tools and drill on a stable floor,
There was a problem in that it was not possible to do it anywhere, but you had to choose a work location.

In other words, although the time required for just drilling the holes was short, the preparations before starting were extremely troublesome. Furthermore, since the upright position of a spray can has an operation button on the top surface, and the inverted position is unstable, it is difficult to make holes in the upper and lower surfaces of the can.

If you put a cap on a spray can and hold it upside down, it will stabilize the can, but it will be dangerous to open the can because it will make a hole and the plastic barrel will break. This circumferential surface is easy to roll and the nail is also slippery, so it requires skill to hold both the nail and the can firmly in one hand and drive the nail perpendicular to the floor toward the center of the can. , there was also a risk.

For this reason, it was not a job that anyone could do easily, and was primarily a job for men.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a degassing tool for a spray can that allows anyone to easily punch a hole in a spray can.

[Structure 1 of the Invention (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has the following structure.

A rod with a conical tip was provided to protrude from the base, and a floating body was provided that reciprocated along the rod. This floating body was provided with a through hole through which the conical tip of the rod protrudes when descending, and a stopper for preventing the floating body from descending.

(Operation) When a spray can with a cap is placed upright on top of the floating object and the cap is tapped lightly with the palm of the hand, the can and floating object will descend and the conical tip will protrude from the through hole. Make a hole in the bottom of the suley can.

Gas is emitted from the hole at the same time as the hole is drilled, completing degassing.

(Example) Examples of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a degassing tool for a spray can according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of FIG. 1.

As shown in FIG. 1, the spray can degassing tool 1 includes a unit 10 placed on a flat surface, and this unit will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.

The combination 10 serves as a base to be placed on the floor, and its shape is not particularly selected, and the base lO shown in FIG.
is made by cutting thinned wood from cedar, pine, etc. into rounds of a certain thickness, taking into account the interesting natural shape and economic efficiency.

A circular recess 12 is formed in the center of the base body 10,
A rod 14 having a conical tip 15 is provided to protrude substantially vertically from this recess.

Furthermore, the circumferential end of the assembly 10 has an inclined hole 16 facing the center of the assembly, and the back of the base has a friction member to prevent slipping when the assembly is placed on the floor. There are 18.

Like the platform IO, the floating body 20 is made of thinned wood and has a hemispherical shape with an outer shape close to a bowl shape, and is arranged in an upside-down bowl shape on the combination.

In the center of the floating body 20, there is a through hole 22 into which the rod 14 described above is inserted, and a coil spring 24 is connected to this through hole and protrudes from the -flat surface side of the bowl body. . The tip of this coil spring 24 is inserted into the recess 12 provided in the base 1O, and the floating body 20 is positioned by the rod 14.

The floating body 20 formed in this way has a coil spring 2
4, it is set to the raised position, and is lowered by pressing. Therefore, the floating body is set to reciprocate along the rod 14 by pressing or removing the pressing force.

The stopper 30 has a cylindrical protrusion 34 provided at the lower end of a kokeshi doll body 32. This cylindrical protrusion 3
4 is inserted into the inclined hole 16 provided in the combination 10, and the lower end of the kokeshi main body 32 and the circumference 2 on the flat surface side of the raised floating body
It is set so that it is in contact with 5.

That is, the lower end of the kokeshi main body 32 serves as a stopper that prevents the floating body 20 from descending.

Such a stopper 30 is not limited to the shape of a kokeshi doll, but is designed so that a degassing tool for a spray can can be placed in a nearby place as a decoration.

This stopper 30 can be attached to and detached from the unit 1o, and by pulling it out, the floating body 2o can be lowered by pressure.

An example of the use of the spray can degassing tool 1 constructed in this manner will be described with reference to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of use of the present invention.

The spray can degassing tool l shown in Figure 1 is an example of use as a decoration or ornament, and a kokeshi-shaped striker 1 bar 30 is attached to it so that it will not descend even if a floating object is pressed. . As the floating body descends, the conical protrusion 15
This is because the purpose is to prevent danger so that it does not stand out.

Therefore, when drilling a hole in a used spray can, the stopper 30 is removed from the combination 10 and the floating body 20 is
Before use, set it so that it can move up and down.

As shown in FIG. 3, a spray can 40 with a cap 42 is placed upright on top of the floating object 20 from which the stopper 30 shown by the dotted line has been removed, and the top of the cap 42 is tapped lightly with the palm of the hand. At the same time, the floating body 20 also descends, and the conical tip 15 provided on the assembly 10 protrudes from the through hole 22 provided in the floating body, and pierces the bottom of the spray can 40 to make a hole.

This drilling is done instantaneously, and the floating body 2o rises by the action of the coil spring and ring 24 and stops at its original position.

Therefore, by placing the spray can on the floating body and tapping it lightly, the drilling work is instantly completed.

All that is left to do is to discard the spray can with holes already made and use the stopper 30.
Just attach it as shown in Figure 1 and the job is completed, so anyone can easily drill holes in spray cans.

Another means for preventing the floating body from falling will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing another example of the stopper, and FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing another example of the floating body.

As shown in FIG. 4, the stopper 50 is characterized in that a notch 56 made of an inclined surface is provided in a part of the lower end of the cylindrical kokeshi body 52. When this notch 56 is directed toward the floating body 20, the floating body descends. Conversely, when the kokeshi main body 52 is rotated so as to move the torch 56 away from the floating body, the same action as the stopper 30 described above will occur.
It is possible to prevent the floating object from descending.

Therefore, the notch 56 is provided on the side of the kokeshi doll with the face as the center. For example, if the notch 56 is on the side of the floating object, the face will be an angry face because the floating object can descend and is in a dangerous state. Also, when the notch 56 separates from the floating object and comes to the opposite side, it prevents the floating object from descending, and it is safe to make a smiling face, so you can tell whether it can be used or not by the face of the kokeshi doll. There are features that allow it.

Such a notch 56 may not be provided on the stopper 50, but may be provided on the circumference 25 of the floating body 20 shown in FIG. 2, and by rotating the floating body, it is possible to select whether or not to use it. .

In this case, the cutout is not a sloped surface, but a shape in which a part of the cylinder of the kokeshi body fits into the floating body, as shown in Figure 5.
That is, the floating body is designed to descend only when the kokeshi main body fits into the arcuate notch 66.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, a spray can can be placed on a floating body that protrudes a conical tip when it is lowered to make a hole, thereby achieving many effects. I was able to get it.

In other words, anyone can easily degas a spray can because there is no need for as much preparatory work as in the past, such as gathering tools and finding a work place.

Spray can degassing tools can be displayed not only as tools but also as ornaments, so they can be displayed in a prominent place, so they can be kept ready for use at any time. This tool is equipped with a stopper to prevent danger, so it can also be used as a safe decoration.

As the material used is thinned wood left in the mountain forest, we were able to make effective use of thinned wood.

The more deformed this thinned wood is, the more interesting the shape can be obtained, so even unnecessary thinned wood can be used, and many other effects can be obtained.
