Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention applies to fiber pieces such as pieces of paper, pieces of cloth, and pieces of cotton.
The present invention relates to a liquid impregnating member for impregnating or adhering a liquid such as water, cosmetic liquid, medicinal liquid, etc. to a fiber piece, and a container equipped with the liquid impregnating member.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as a member and a container for impregnating a fiber piece with a liquid, a water absorbing material 21 such as a sponge is placed inside a bottomed cylindrical container body 20, as shown in FIG. Yes, pour a liquid such as water into the container body in advance to soak it into the water absorbent body, and when using it, press a piece of fiber such as a piece of paper or cloth to be impregnated with the liquid against the top surface of the water absorbent body 21 with your finger. The material was impregnated with liquid.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In conventional members and containers for impregnating fiber pieces with liquid, if the surface area of the part against which the liquid-impregnated fiber pieces are pressed is increased, the problem will occur during use or as it is afterwards. The drawback was that the liquid evaporated rapidly if left unattended. Another drawback is that if the container is accidentally knocked over, or if it is left on its side for a long time when carried in a bag, etc., the liquid will seep out rapidly from the water absorbent body. Ta.

Even if the surface area of the present invention is increased to make it convenient to press the fiber pieces, during use,
Or, if the container is left as it is afterwards, the liquid will not evaporate easily, or if the container is accidentally tipped over, the liquid will not spill out easily, and even if the container is carried on its side for a long time, the liquid will not spill out. It is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid-impregnated member that does not come out, and a container equipped with the liquid-impregnated member.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present invention provides a dish-shaped holder 1 having a hole 3 in a bottom wall 2 as a member for impregnating a fiber piece with liquid, and the holder 1. In hole 3 of 1,
The fiber bundle 5 is inserted so that its upper end surface 6 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the bottom wall 2 of the holder 1, and the fiber bundle 5 is in contact with the upper end surface 6 of the fiber bundle 5, and the upper end surface 6 of the fiber bundle 5 is in contact with the upper surface of the bottom wall 2 of the holder 1. The nonwoven fabric board 7 to be placed and the sheet laminated on the nonwoven fabric board 7 have a large number of small holes 9 densely drilled throughout the whole, and the small holes 9 are formed in the peripheral wall 10 of the nonwoven fabric board 7.
It adopts a configuration consisting of a plurality of flexible synthetic resin sheets 8 formed on a short cylinder wall that projects downward, and furthermore, a bottomed cylinder with an opening at the top is used as a container equipped with a member for impregnating the fiber pieces with liquid. The container body 11 has a mouth and neck part 12 at its upper end, and has a dish shape that fits into the mouth and neck part 12 of the container body 11, and has a hole 3 in the bottom wall 2, and a hole 3 in the bottom wall 2. A holder 1 serving as an inner lid having a cylindrical part 15 vertically provided with a central hole 14 that communicates with the holder 1; Fiber bundle 5 that is substantially flush
is in contact with the upper end surface 6 of the fiber bundle 5, and the holder 1
A non-woven fabric plate 7 placed on the top surface of the bottom wall 2 of , a plurality of flexible synthetic resin sheets 8 formed into short cylindrical walls with peripheral walls 10 projecting downward;
A packing 16 for fixing the synthetic resin sheet 8 to the holder 1 from above, and a neck portion 12 of the container body 11.
This configuration adopts a structure consisting of a cap 18 that is fitted onto the outside of the cap.

(Function) When the lower end of the fiber bundle of the liquid-impregnated member for the fiber piece configured as described above is immersed in liquid, the liquid permeates into the fiber bundle and rises due to capillary action.
Next, since the upper end surface of the fiber bundle is in surface contact with the nonwoven fabric plate placed on the bottom wall of the holder, the liquid spreads and permeates the entire nonwoven fabric plate from this contact area in a radial manner.

On the other hand, a plurality of synthetic resin sheets are laminated on a non-woven fabric board, and each sheet has a large number of small holes perforated in a dense mesh shape, and the surrounding walls of the small holes protrude downward. It is formed on a short cylindrical wall. Therefore, the lower layer sheet is in contact with the nonwoven fabric plate at the lower edge of the circumferential wall of the small hole, and in other parts overlaps with the nonwoven fabric plate with a gap equal to the height of the circumferential wall of the small hole. There is.

Further, the upper sheet is laminated on the lower sheet, and is in contact with the lower sheet at the lower edge of the peripheral wall of the small hole, and the other portion has a gap equal to the height of the peripheral wall of the small hole. There is.

Therefore, when the sheets overlap as described above, the proportion of the small holes in each sheet of the upper and lower layers that coincide with each other in the vertical direction becomes extremely small, and in areas other than the matching areas of the small holes, the holes of the upper and lower layers overlap. Each sheet can cover or occlude the pores of the other.

Therefore, as mentioned above, the amount of evaporation of the liquid that has permeated into the nonwoven fabric plate is reduced, and in the non-pressed state, although the liquid may permeate and rise to some extent into the peripheral wall of the small holes in the lower sheet, it will not evaporate into the upper sheet. It does not leak to the surface. Additionally, when the container is turned sideways and time elapses, the liquid seeping out from the nonwoven fabric plate flows into the small holes in the synthetic resin sheet and fills them, but in this state, a water film forms on the surface of the small holes. Its surface tension prevents the liquid from flowing out.

Next, in order to impregnate the fiber piece with liquid, the fiber piece is placed on the top surface of the synthetic resin sheet and pressed from above with a finger or the like. Then, as shown in Fig. 3, the peripheral walls of the small holes in each sheet of the upper and lower layers are crushed, and in the areas where the small holes of the upper and lower layers coincide in the vertical direction, liquid directly seeps out from the nonwoven fabric plate. In other parts, liquid seeps out from the gaps between the pores in the lower sheet, fills the space between the upper and lower sheets, and further oozes out from the pores in the upper sheet and permeates into the fiber pieces.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a member and a container for impregnating a fiber piece with liquid according to the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a dish-shaped holder made of synthetic resin. A flange 4 is formed around the upper opening of the holder 1, and a hole 3 is bored in the center of the bottom wall 2. A cylindrical fiber bundle 5 made of a material with good liquid impregnation properties such as cotton is inserted into the hole 3, and its upper end surface 6 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the bottom wall 2 of the holder 1. There is. Note that the bottom wall 2 of the holding body 1
A plurality of holes 3 may be formed in the fiber bundle 5, and in that case, the fiber bundle 5 is inserted into each hole 3.
