Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" The present invention is a flush toilet in which a faucet is placed so that hands can be washed on the lid of the flush tank when flushing the toilet. In order to use the water coming out of the lid to dissolve a solid water-soluble aromatic cleaning agent and to guide the eluate of the cleaning agent to the toilet bowl through the flush tank, the lid is placed at a position centered on the hole leading to the tank. The present invention relates to a container for elution of an aromatic cleaning agent, which is used by placing it in a container.

In addition, the present invention does not have the above-mentioned elution container in which the aromatic cleaning agent is dissolved only by water poured from above, but a funnel-shaped part centered on the hole in the lid of the tank. The present invention relates to a type of container that dissolves an aromatic cleaning agent even with water that collects therein.

``Prior Art'' A conventional elution container of this type has a storage part for storing a solid aromatic cleaning agent, and a leg piece is provided in the center of the bottom of the storage part to guide it into a hole in the lid of a washing tank. In addition to providing several water passage holes at the bottom, legs are protruding from the bottom near the outer periphery to allow it to float above the lid of the flushing tank, and if necessary, the top A cap with a number of holes was attached to the housing.

The elution container is used by being placed on the top surface of the lid of the flushing tank with the legs on the bottom of the storage section guided to the holes in the lid of the flushing tank, and when flushing the toilet, the faucet is placed above the hole in the lid of the tank. When the container is facing the lid, the aromatic cleaning agent in the container is eluted by the water poured from above and the water that temporarily collects on the lid. In addition, in the case of a flushing tank where the faucet is located to the side of the hole rather than directly above the hole in the lid, by placing the container, water that temporarily accumulates on the top surface of the lid during flushing can be removed. The water enters the storage part through the water hole, the water dissolves the aromatic cleaning agent inside, and the eluate flows out from the water hole.

The eluate of the aromatic cleaner is supplied to the toilet bowl through the flush tank to clean the toilet bowl.

``Problem that the invention aims to solve'' In conventional elution containers, when the water in the container drains, the highly concentrated eluate of the brightly colored aromatic cleaner flows through the water hole and onto the bottom of the container. The problem is that the water does not trickle down until it reaches the legs in the center, and it tends to drip directly from the water hole onto the top of the tank lid, staining the top of the lid. The eluate that has been dropped becomes highly concentrated as the water in the container progresses.
Even when dripping onto the top of the lid, it does not flow from the lid into the tank and tends to solidify on the lid surface, and once solidified, it is often impossible to remove it just by running water.

The purpose of the present invention is to prevent the highly concentrated eluate of the aromatic cleaning agent from dripping onto the top surface of the lid of the washing tank in the above-mentioned case, and to make it so that it falls from the bottom of the storage section through the leg pieces into the tank. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a container for elution with a high temperature.

"Means for Solving the Problems" The present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object is characterized in that a guide groove is formed that reaches the leg piece from the water passage hole at the bottom of the accommodating part.

"Function" The highly concentrated eluate of the aromatic cleaning agent that flows out from the water hole when the water in the storage section runs out flows through the guide groove to reach the leg piece in the center, and then flows through the leg piece. Fall into the tank.

“Example” A preferred example of the elution container according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 is a cup-shaped container for storing a water-soluble solid aromatic cleaning agent a, which is made of synthetic resin;
The hole d of the lid b of the flushing tank shown in Figure 6 is located in the center of the bottom.
It has a plurality of leg pieces 11 that are guided by, and water holes 12, 12 are formed at targeted positions on the outer periphery of the bottom. In this embodiment, a skirt 13 is formed on the bottom outer peripheral wall portion of the housing portion 1, and a water passage hole 14 adjacent to the water passage hole 12 is also formed in this skirt 13.

A guide groove 15 (see FIGS. 4 and 5) is formed on the bottom of the accommodating part 1 so as to extend from the water passage hole 12 to one of the leg pieces 11 in the center of the bottom. When the water in the tank 1 is drained, drops of the highly concentrated eluate of the brightly colored aromatic cleaner a do not drip onto the top surface of the tank lid b, and the guide groove 1
5 to reach the leg piece 11 in the center, and the leg piece 1
1 to fall into the tank, and prevents the high-concentration eluate of the aromatic detergent A from falling onto the lid and staining the top surface of the tank lid when water is drained.

Both side walls 19, 19 of the guide groove 15 are formed to be inclined gradually downward as they approach the leg piece 11 from the water passage hole 12, so as to more fully exhibit the above-mentioned function. Furthermore, for the same reason, it is desirable that the bottom of the guide groove 15 be formed in a downwardly sloping shape.

In this embodiment, an inclined cam groove 1 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the accommodating part 1, with the starting end at the lower end of the accommodating part 1.
6 and 16 are formed to form a kind of cylindrical cam shape. Further, in this embodiment, vertical grooves 17, 17 are formed from the upper end of the outer peripheral surface of the accommodating portion 1, with which leg portions 31, 31 of a cap 3, which will be described later, are engaged.

The inner bottom of the accommodating part 1 is formed in the shape of a shallow sloping groove that slopes slightly downward from the center toward the water passage hole 12 so that the eluate of the aromatic cleaning agent a smoothly concentrates on the water passage holes 12, 12. Pillow pieces 18 are provided on the periphery of the inner bottom at predetermined angular intervals and coincide with the highest part of the inner bottom.
is formed to prevent the aromatic cleaning agent a inside from tilting.

2 is a support base made of synthetic resin that supports the housing part 1, and has a cylindrical part 21 into which the housing part 1 is inserted;
Legs 22 of the same length are formed at angular intervals of approximately 60 degrees on the outer peripheral portion of the bottom. The cylindrical portion 21 is formed with convex portions (or pins) 23, 23 that are guided and engaged with the cam grooves 16, 16 of the housing portion 1.

An upward groove-shaped water reservoir 24 is formed on the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion 21 of the support base 2, and a horizontally long water passage hole leading to the water reservoir 24 is formed on the outer periphery of the lower portion of the cylindrical portion 21. 25, 25 are formed at positions that communicate with the respective water passage holes 14 and 12 of the accommodating portion 1 in the assembled state. Window holes 26 are formed at equal angular intervals on the outer peripheral wall of the water reservoir 24, and drain ports 27 are provided at the bottom of the water reservoir 24 at positions close to the legs 22.

The cap 3 has a large knurled outer periphery, holes 32 are formed at appropriate intervals, and partition walls 33, which also serve as reinforcement, are formed in the vertical direction to surround the holes 32 on the inner surface. In this embodiment, legs 31, 31 that are guided by the longitudinal grooves 17 on the outer periphery of the housing portion 1 are formed on the partition walls 33, 33 at symmetrical positions.

To assemble the accommodating part 1, the support base 2, and the cap 3, as shown in FIG.
6, a convex portion 23 on the upper end of the inner wall of the cylindrical portion 21 of the support base 2;
Insert the housing part 1 into the cylindrical part 21 in a state in which 23 is guided and engaged, and the solid aromatic cleaning agent a is inserted into the housing part 1.
is stored, and the cap 3 is placed over the housing part 1 in such a way as to guide the legs 31, 31 into the vertical grooves 17, 17 of the housing part 1. Therefore, the cap 3 and the housing part 1
are locked to each other in the rotational direction by inserting the legs 31 into the vertical grooves 17, so when the cap 3 is rotated while holding the support base 2, the housing part 1 and the support base 2 are connected to each other. Due to the cam mechanism, the housing part 1
moves up and down along the cylindrical portion 21 of the support base 2.

When installing, the support stand 2 is placed on the lid b with the leg piece 11 of the accommodating part 1 guided to the hole d of the lid b of the washing tank.

When the housing part 1 is raised, the gap between the funnel-shaped part f of the lid and the bottom of the housing part 1 becomes wider, making it difficult for water to accumulate in the funnel-shaped part f, and at the same time, water flows through the water hole 12. Since the amount of water that enters the storage section 1 is reduced, the amount of the aromatic cleaning agent a that is eluted is relatively reduced. On the other hand, when the container 1 is lowered, the distance between the funnel-shaped portion f and the bottom of the container 1 narrows, making it easier for water to accumulate in the portion f, and at the same time, the amount of water entering the container 1 decreases. Therefore, the elution amount of aromatic detergent a becomes relatively large.

By operating the container of this embodiment as described above, the elution amount of the aromatic cleaner a can be adjusted in accordance with the amount of water flowing out (tap water pressure).

In the embodiment described above, the accommodating part 1 and the support stand 2 were provided separately, and the two were combined as described above. It can also be implemented by forming them integrally.

Furthermore, if there is no need to adjust the elution amount of the aromatic cleaning agent, the process can be carried out without the cap 3.

``Effect of the invention'' The container for elution of aromatic cleaning agent related to the direction guide is equipped with a guide groove that reaches from the water hole in the storage part to the leg piece in the center of the bottom surface, so it is easy to clean the fragrance when the water in the storage part runs out. The high-concentration eluate of the agent easily reaches the leg piece through the guide groove and falls from the leg piece into the tank, so that the washing tank lid is less likely to be soiled by the high-concentration eluate. .
