This relates to a stick container that partially protrudes when in use and can be stored when not in use.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as an example of this type of static container,
The container body consists of an inner and an outer container that are approximately cylindrical, and a stake is fitted into the inner container and a cap is attached to the outer container, so that both the inner and outer containers rotate and slide relative to each other in the axial direction. A device equipped with a screw mechanism is known.

When moving the stake in and out of the container, hold one of the inner and outer containers with your left hand and the other with your right hand.By rotating one, the stay rotates and moves in the axial direction, and the outer container The tip part is designed to go in and out from the open end.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) In the above-mentioned conventional technology, in order to speed up the movement of the stay in and out, it is necessary to increase the screw angle of the screw mechanism, but on the other hand, the stay does not move naturally during use. There is a problem in that it moves into the outer container.
In addition, in order to prevent the stake from naturally retracting into the outer container during use, it is necessary to reduce the thread angle of the screw mechanism, but in this case,
There is a problem in that the rotation speed of the inner and outer containers must be increased, and the station cannot be moved in and out with a single touch.

In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, it is an object of the present invention to provide a stake container in which the stakes can be taken in and out with a single touch, and in which the stakes do not naturally retract into the outer container during use.

(Means for Solving the Problems) That is, the present invention is characterized in that the container body 1 consists of inner and outer containers 2 and 3, and the stay 4 is fitted into the inner container 2 and the outer container 3 is inserted into the container body 1. cap 6

A locking band 1 equipped with ears 20 at both ends that clamps the outer peripheral surface of the reduced diameter portion 8 using self-elastic force to restrict relative rotation.
The outer container 3 has a spiral sliding guide groove 16 in which the sliding guide protrusion 10 is slidably inserted into the inner circumferential surface of the outer container 3 and moves simultaneously in the axial direction and the circumferential direction. The grooves 16 are provided at symmetrical positions.
Elongated holes 17 for guiding and locking are provided along the axial direction at symmetrical positions from the central axis so as not to overlap, and ear portions at both ends protrude into the elongated holes 17 at symmetrical positions on the outer surface of the locking band 19. 20 and is provided with pressing knobs 21 on both end ears 20 for elastically deforming the locking band 19 in the direction of releasing the clamping.

(Function) According to the above structure of the present invention, after removing the cap 6, when holding the outer container 3 with one hand and pressing both pressing knobs 21 from outside to inside with the fingertips of the other hand, the locking band 19 is pressed. The outer container 3 swells outward perpendicular to the direction in which the outer container 3 is held, releasing the grip on the reduced diameter portion 8.
When the locking band 19 is pushed in the opening direction of the inner container 2,
In order to push the inner container 2 in the axial direction, the sliding guide protrusion 10 of the inner container 2 is guided by the sliding guide groove 16 of the outer container 3,
The inner container 2 moves in the axial direction while rotating, and the tip of the stake 4 protrudes from the opening of the outer container 3. When you release your finger from the press knob 21 with this stay 4 protruding a predetermined amount, the locking band 19 returns to its initial state due to its elastic force, and the reduced diameter portion 8 of the inner container 2
is clamped to become locked.

When the inner container 2 is in the locked state, even if the stake 4 is pushed from the tip side, the inner container 2 will not rotate because both ears 20 of the locking band 19 pass through the long holes 17 of the outer container 3. , Therefore, the stay 4 is fixed in a protruding state, and the outer container 3 naturally moves during use.
There is no going in or out.

Furthermore, when storing the stay 4, if both pressing knobs 21 are pressed inward from both outsides, the locking band 19 will swell and the inner container 2 will be unlocked. When the inner container 2 is moved axially inward, its sliding guide protrusion 10 is guided by the sliding guide groove 16 of the outer container 3, and the inner container 2 moves axially inward while rotating. When the tip of the stake 4 is located near the open end of the outer container 3, when you release your finger from the pressing knob 21, the locking band 19 closes at that position.
Due to its elastic restoring force, the reduced diameter portion 8 of the inner container 2
Press and lock to restore.

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

In the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a container main body, which is composed of a substantially cylindrical inner container 2 and an outer container 3. The lower end of a stake 4 is fitted into the inner container 2, and a cap 6 is attached to the outer peripheral surface 5 of the opening of the outer container 3. It is worn with a crown.

The inner container 2 is made of synthetic resin (for example, polypropylene) and has a bottom plate 7 approximately in the middle in the longitudinal direction,
A reduced diameter part 8 having a small diameter cylindrical shape is formed downward from the bottom plate 7, and a lower guide 9 is provided on the outer circumference of the lower end of this reduced diameter part 8, and a lower guide 9 is provided on the upper outer peripheral surface of the reduced diameter part 8 symmetrically from the center. A sliding guide protrusion 10 is protruded at the position, and an upper guide 11 is provided on the outer periphery of the upper end of the inner container 2.
is provided. The upper part of the inner container 2 is provided with a plurality of axial cutting grooves 12, and the outer peripheral surface diameter of the upper guide 11 is equal to the outer diameter of the outer container 3.
The inner diameter of the stake 4 is slightly larger than that of the inner container 2, and the outer periphery of the stake 4 fitted into the inner container 2 is tightened from the outside to be fixed.

The outer container 3 is made of synthetic resin (for example, AS resin)
A flange portion 13 is formed on the inner circumference of the upper end, the inner diameter of the opening portion 14 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the stake 4, and a ring-shaped protrusion 15 is formed on the outer circumferential surface 5 of the opening portion. There is. Furthermore, a spiral sliding guide groove 16 is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the outer container 3 at a position symmetrical with respect to the central axis, corresponding to the sliding guide protrusion 10 . 10 are fitted and engaged to move simultaneously in the axial direction and the circumferential direction. In the outer container 3, elongated holes 17 for guiding and locking are provided along the axial direction at symmetrical positions with respect to the central axis and so as not to overlap with the sliding guide grooves 16. A flat concave surface 18 is provided on both outer sides and extends over the entire length of the elongated hole 17.

Further, the outer container 3 is formed into two parts at the axial center of the elongated hole 17, and is bonded together with an adhesive during assembly.

Reference numeral 19 denotes a locking band, which is made of a relatively elastic material such as synthetic resin (for example, polyethylene), and integrates the tabs 20 at both ends of two strip plates as shown in FIG. A pressing knob 21 is formed at each end of the inner container 2. For example, only one ear 20 is cut off during molding, and the reduced diameter portion 8 of the inner container 2 is cut off at the time of molding.
After being fitted onto the outside, they are glued together and integrated. A large number of single tooth shaped grooves 22 are provided on the opposing inner surface of the locking band 19 to prevent it from slipping.

The cap 6 has an opening outer peripheral surface 5 of the outer container 3.
The portion that is attached to the outer container 3 is made thin, and the inner peripheral surface thereof has a ring-shaped protrusion 15 when attached to the outer container 3.
A ring-shaped locking protrusion 23 is provided on the lower side of the cushion member 24, and a locking protrusion 25 of the cushion material 24 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the upper thick portion.

This cushion material 24, like the cushion material 26 fitted onto the bottom plate 7 of the inner container 2, is molded from a sponge body or a soft body made of rubber or synthetic resin.

According to the above embodiment, when in use, first remove the cap 6, hold the outer container 3 with your left hand, and press both pressing knobs 21 from the outside inward with the fingertips of your right hand, and the locking band 19 will be pressed. The inner container 2 bulges outward perpendicular to the direction of the inner container 2 as shown in FIG.
is released from the outer peripheral surface of the reduced diameter portion 8. Therefore, when pushing upward while pressing the pressure knob 21, the inner container 2 is pushed up by the locking band 19, and the sliding guide protrusion 10 is moved upwardly toward the outer container 3.
The stick 4 rotates and moves upward while being guided by the sliding guide groove 16, and the tip of the stake 4 protrudes above the opening 14 of the outer container 3, resulting in the state shown in FIG. When the stay 4 protrudes by a predetermined amount, when the finger is released from the pressing knob 21, the locking band 19 returns to its initial state due to its elastic force and clamps the reduced diameter portion 8 of the inner container 2 from both sides of the outside. It enters a locked state that restricts relative rotation. When the inner container 2 is locked to the outer container 3, even if the stake 4 is pushed from the tip side, the ear part 20 of the locking band 19 passes through the elongated hole 17 of the outer container 3, so the inner container can be locked. 2 does not rotate, therefore, the stake 4 is fixed in the protruding state and does not naturally retract into the outer container 3 during use.

Also, when storing Stakes 4 after use,
If both pressing knobs 21 are pressed inward from both outsides,
The locking band 19 expands and the locking of the inner container 2 is released, resulting in the state shown in FIG. is guided by the sliding guide groove 16 of the outer container 3 and moves downward while rotating. When the tip of the stake 4 is located near the opening of the outer container 3 or stored below, when you release your finger from the pressure knob 21, the locking band 19 locks the contents at that position by its elastic restoring force. The reduced diameter portion 8 of the container 2 is clamped and locked to restore it to its initial state.

(Effect of the invention) As described above, the stake container according to the invention allows the inner container 2 to be releasably locked to the outer container 3 by the locking band 19, and also allows the pressing knob 21 to be pressed. Since the structure is configured such that the lock can be released by pressing the press knob 21, by taking the press knob 21 from both outside sides and sliding it in the axial direction, the stay 4 can be moved in and out with a one-touch operation, and the press knob 2
1 can be reliably locked with the simple operation of releasing 1. Therefore, when using the stake 4, the stake 4 will not naturally retract into the outer container 3, and the operation can be performed with just one touch. It can be done quickly and reliably, making it extremely convenient to use.
