DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the rear portion of the horizontal portion 2 is provided with screws 3 at the upper end of the vertical portion 1 which functions like a pistol stock.
To form a main body 4 having a hook-like shape, and a concave groove 9 is formed on the lateral portion 2 of the main body 4 and a contact portion of the tube 22 is provided at a front end portion of the bottom wall of the concave groove 9. 10 are provided respectively, the state where the pipe-shaped winding shaft 7 is rotatable and cannot be pulled out between the left and right walls 5, 6 of the concave groove portion 9 behind the contact portion 10, and the left end is the concave groove portion 9. The horizontal slit in the state of penetrating outside the left wall 5 of the above, and cut the slit 8 for inserting the tail end of the tube having a length reaching both ends of the left and right walls 5 and 6 on the peripheral wall of the winding shaft 7. The edge 1 which is provided and is the front side when rotating in the inserting slit 8
1 is provided with a folding edge 23 bent in the centripetal direction, and a serration 24 is provided on the tip edge of the folding edge 23. Further, the left end protruding portion 12 of the winding shaft 7 is provided with a portion near the upper end of the trigger member 13. A pawl wheel 14 which is rotatably supported and is integrally attached to a hand-turning knob 25 is non-rotatably fixed to the outer end of the penetrating portion 12 by a cotter 26, and a feed pawl 16 with a spring 15 is attached to an upper end of the trigger member 13. , The outer wall of the left wall 5 is supported by the spring 18 with the spring 18 in a state of being engaged with the ratchet wheel 14 in a detachable manner.
Further, a torsion spring 19 which gives a returning force to the trigger member 13 is sandwiched between the trigger member 13 and the vertical portion 1, and a releasing finger holding portion 20 is provided at the base end of the feed claw 16, and A contact portion 2 which is pushed together with the base end of the pin 18 when the detaching finger rest 20 is pushed to bring the pin 18 into the detached state.
1 are provided respectively.

As shown in FIG. 5, the present invention can be implemented by making the contact portion 10 of the tube 22 into a convex shape, providing the ratchet device on the right side, and obtaining the main body 4 by a single molding. Also, the ratchet device may be implemented in other suitable configurations.

[0008]

In use, first, the tail end of the tube 22 is inserted into the tube inserting slit 8 and, in this state, the vertical portion 1 of the main body 4 and the trigger member 13 are grasped by one hand. By repeatedly applying the squeezing operation and the releasing operation, the ratchet wheel 14 and the winding shaft 7 are rotated by the feed claw 16 to wind the tail end portion of the tube 20 around the winding shaft 7 little by little. The winding by the operation and the releasing operation may be repeated as necessary to increase the winding amount, and thus the content may be pushed out toward the mouth of the tube 22.

[0009]

Since the squeezing device for a tube-containing product according to the present invention is constructed as described above, it is convenient that the squeezing operation of the contents can be performed easily with one hand.
