Abstract

PURPOSE:To disperse surely each liq. of upper and lower two layers by providing a shutting-off part shutting the first wicking core which can be brought into contact with the first and the second liq. when the first wicking core is entered into a container from the second liq. CONSTITUTION:When an outer lid is opened, the first. liq. 5 is sucked up from a sucking hole 11 of the first wicking core 9 and is dispersed from a dispersing hole 13 of the first wicking core 9. The second liq. 6 is sucked up from the outer peripheral face of the second wicking core 10 and is dispersed from the upper end part of the second wicking core 10. In addition, when a sucking-up body 7 is inserted in a container 1, as the second liq. 6 is at first sucked in the second wicking core 10, even if the second wicking core 10 is thereafter immersed in the first liq. 5, the first liq. 5 is hardly sucked up in the second wicking core 10 and only the second liq. 6 is sucked up from the second wicking core 10. Therefore, approximately the same amt. of the first liq. 5 and the second liq. 6 each is dispersed. Therefore, even if two kinds of liq. are put in the contaioner so as to be divided into the upper and the lower two layers, these are surely sucked up by means of a pair of wicking cores and can be dispersed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an improvement in the dispersion means of an aroma deodorizing tool in which an aromatic agent or deodorant is placed in a container and diffused.

[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] In this type of aroma deodorizing tool, if two types of liquid are placed in the container and the same liquid is divided into upper and lower layers, the appearance will be very beautiful. can increase product value. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the liquid in the upper and lower two layers is dispersed.

Therefore, the present invention provides an aromatic deodorizer having a liquid that forms two layers, upper and lower, in a container, and provides a means for dispersing the liquid.

Structure of the Invention [Means for Solving the Problems] In view of this objective, the aroma deodorizing tool according to the present invention has the following features, as shown in the drawings (Figs. 1 to 12) of the first to third embodiments described later.
A container 1 having a mouth 2, a first liquid 5 placed in this container 1, a second liquid 6 also placed in this container l, and a container 1 for sucking up the first liquid 5. It consists of a first wick 9 that is inserted into the container 1 from the mouth 2, and a second wick 10 that is inserted into the container 1 from the mouth 2 to suck up the second liquid 6. Since the specific gravity of the second liquid 6 is smaller than the specific gravity of the first liquid 5 and the same liquids 5 and 6 do not mix, the same liquids 5 and 6
When placed in the container 1, it is divided into two layers, the first liquid 5 as the lower layer and the second liquid 6 as the upper layer. When the first wick 9 is put into the container 1, the wick 11 of the first wick 9, which is immersed in the first liquid 5, has a soluble portion 12 that dissolves in the first liquid 5.
is provided so as to cover this suction port 11. The outer surface of the first wick 9 that can come into contact with the first liquid 5 and the second liquid 6 when the first wick 9 is put into the container 1, except for the suction opening 11. A blocking portion 8, 16, 17 for blocking the first wick 9 from the second liquid 6 is provided.

Also, drawings of 4th to 6th embodiments (Figs. 13 to 15) to be described later.
As shown in the above, in the aroma deodorant according to the present invention,
The fusible portion 12 of the first wick 9 may be omitted.

[For production]

Now, when both plate cores 9 and 10 are inserted into the container l for the first time in use, the first wick 9 has a fusible part 12 and a blocking part 8. [
6 and 17, the second liquid 6 is not contacted at all, and the first liquid
The soluble portion 12 is melted by the liquid 5, and the suction opening 11 of the first wick 9 comes into contact with the first liquid 5 for the first time. Therefore, the poor suction of the first liquid 5 that would occur if the second liquid 6 adhered to the first suction wick 9, particularly the suction port 11, does not occur.

In addition, if the suction port 11 of the first suction core 9 does not have the fusible portion 12, when inserting the both plate cores 9 and 10 into the container 1 for the first time during use, for example, the suction port 11 is If it is wetted with a small amount of water, the second liquid 6 will not stick to the suction opening 11 of the first wick 9.

In either case, both cores 9. With 10 inserted, the 4th. 9. As shown in FIG. 12, the suction port 11 of the first suction wick 9 is attacked by the first liquid 5, and the
The first wick 9 is isolated from the second liquid 6 by the blocking portions 8, 16, 17 of the wick 9.

Then, the first liquid 5 is reliably sucked up by the first suction wick 9, and the second liquid 6 is sucked up by the second suction wick lO.
is definitely absorbed.

[First Embodiment] First, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

As shown in FIG. 1, a container 1 is transparent or translucent, and has an opening 2 formed at its upper end, and an inner lid 3 fitted into the opening 2. As shown in FIG. An openable and closable outer lid 4 is fitted around the outer periphery of the opening 3.

This container 1 contains a first liquid 5 and a second liquid 6. Since the specific gravity of the second liquid 6 is smaller than the specific gravity of the first liquid 5 and the same liquids 5 and 6 do not mix, the first liquid 5 becomes the lower layer and the second liquid 6 becomes the upper layer. It is divided into two layers, upper and lower. The first liquid 5 consists of water, fragrance, alcohol, and solubilizer, and the second liquid 6 consists of oil and fragrance.

The colors of the same liquid 5°6 are different from each other.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the suction body 7 has a cylindrical shape as a whole, and includes a circular pipe 8 made of resin such as plastic as a blocking part that does not dissolve in the first liquid 5 and the second liquid 6. A first wick 9 and a second wick lO provided on the inner and outer peripheries
It consists of Note that instead of the circular pipe 8, it may be sealed with an oil-insoluble coating agent or the like.

Double wick 9. lO is composed of a fiber bundle or the like, and a film 1 as a soluble part that dissolves with the first liquid 5 is provided on the suction opening 11 which is the lower end surface of the first suction wick 9 filled inside the circular pipe 8.
2 (polyvinyl alcohol, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, etc.) is attached to cover the suction port 11, and the dispersion port 13, which is the upper end surface of the first wick 9, is not coated with anything. Second
The outer circumferential surface and both upper and lower end surfaces of the wick lO are not coated at all.

As shown in FIG. 4, such a wicking body 7 is inserted into the inner lid 3 from the mouth 2 of the container 1 with the coating 12 of the first wick 9 facing downward. The upper end of the suction body 7 slightly protrudes above the inner lid 3, and the suction body 7 is
is immersed in the second liquid 6 and the first liquid 5. The film 12 of the first wick 9 is dissolved by the first liquid 5, and the suction port 11 covered with the film 12 is immersed in the first liquid 5.

Then, when the outer lid 4 is left open, the first liquid 5
is sucked up from the suction port 11 of the first wick 9 and diffused from the divergence port 13 of the first wick 9. The second liquid 6 is sucked up from the outer peripheral surface of the second wick 1O and diffused from the upper end of the second wick 1O. In addition, the wicking body 7 is
When inserted into the second wick 10, the second liquid 6 is first applied to the second wick 10.
is sucked, and then the second wick 10 absorbs the first liquid 5.
Even when immersed in water, the first liquid 5 is hardly sucked up by the second wick lO, and only the second liquid 6 is sucked up by the second wick 10. Therefore, the first liquid 5 and the second liquid 6 are dispersed in almost the same amount, and the boundary surface of the liquid 5.6 is the wicking body 7.
Their divergence continues until the bottom of .

In particular, in the first embodiment, since the wicking body 7 includes a first wick 9 and a second wick lO that are interrupted by a circular pipe 8, the first wick 9 The first liquid 5 is reliably sucked up by this, and the second liquid 6 is also reliably sucked up by the second wick lO. In addition, if the suction body 7 is tightly fitted to the inner lid 3, even if the container l falls over during use, the container l
The liquid 5°6 inside becomes difficult to flow out.

Furthermore, since the wicking body 7 is inserted into the container l for the first time during use, if the inner lid 3 of the container 1 is sealed before the wicking body 7 is inserted, even if the container 1 falls during transportation, the container liquid 5 in l,
6 does not flow out. Since the first wick 9 of the wick 7 has a circular pipe 8 and a membrane 12, when the wick 7 is inserted into the container l during use, the first wick 9 is connected to the second wick 9. Without contacting the liquid 6 at all, the film 12 is melted by the first liquid 5 and the suction opening 11 of the first wick 9 comes into contact with the first liquid 5 for the first time.

Therefore, the second liquid 6 flows into the first wick 9, especially its wick 1.
The poor suction of the first liquid 5 that occurs when the liquid adheres to the liquid does not occur.

In addition, as for the suction body 7, the circular pipe 8 may be made eccentric as shown in FIG. 5, or the shape of the pipe 8 may be changed as shown in FIGS. 6(a) and 6(b). Figure 6(a)
In the case of the wicking body 7 shown in (b), a first wick 9 is filled in a pipe 8 having a semicircular cross section, and a second wick 10 is filled in the pipe 8. attached to one side of the
The entire wicking body 7 has a cylindrical shape due to the pipe 8 and the second wicking core 10.

[Second Embodiment] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 9.

In the suction body 7 in this second embodiment, the first suction wick 9 and the second suction wick lO are separately inserted into the circular support plate 14, and are stopped at their lower ends. They are connected by a member 15. The entire outer periphery of the first wick 9 is coated with a resin coating 16 as a blocking part, and this resin coating 16 corresponds to the circular pipe 8 of the first embodiment.

The suction port 11, which is the lower end surface of the first suction core 9, has the first
As in the case of the embodiment, a coating 12 is provided as a soluble portion. The upper end surface of the first wick 9, the divergence port 13, and the entire outer surface of the second wick 10 are not covered with any coating.

Such a suction body 7 is inserted into the container 1 through the mouth 2 of the container 1, and the support plate 14 is fitted into the mouth 2 without any gaps.

The wicking action of the first wick 9 and the second wick lO inserted into the container 1 is the same as in the first embodiment.

However, this is different from the first embodiment in that the first liquid 5 and the second liquid 6 also come into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the first wick 9, but this outer peripheral surface is coated with a resin coating 16. As a result, the first liquid 5 is sucked up only from the suction port 11 of the first suction wick 9.

[Third Embodiment] Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1O to 12.

In the suction body 7, a first hole 18 and a second hole 19 are formed in a cylindrical body 17 as a blocking part made of transparent resin, extending between both end faces, and the second hole 19 is formed on the outer periphery of the cylindrical body 17.
It is opened by a notch 20 formed on the side, and a wall 21 that partitions both holes 18 and 19 projects from the upper end surface of the cylindrical body 17. A first wick 9 is inserted into the first hole 18 , a second wick 10 is inserted into the second hole 19 , and the second wick 10 is inserted into the second hole 19 . A coating 12 as a soluble portion is applied to the end surface of the suction port 11 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. A part of the outer circumferential surface of the second wick 10 that is visible from the upper end surface of the first wick 9, the upper and lower end surfaces of the second wick 1O, and the notch 20 of the cylindrical body 17 is Not covered in any way. This cylindrical body 17 corresponds to the circular pipe 8 of the first embodiment. Such a suction body 7 is inserted into the inner lid 3 from the mouth part 2 of the container 1 without a gap, and the suction action of the first suction core 9 and the second suction core 10 is the same as that of the first embodiment. The same is true for . however,
The second liquid 6 is sucked up only from a part of the outer peripheral surface of the second wick 10 corresponding to the notch 20.

[Embodiments 4 to 6] The suction body 7 of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 13 is a modified version of the suction body 7 of the first embodiment, and the suction body 7 of the fifth embodiment shown in FIG. The absorbent body 7 is a modified version of the absorbent body 7 of the second embodiment, and the absorbent body 7 of the sixth embodiment shown in FIG. 15 is a modified version of the absorbent body 7 of the third embodiment. The only difference between the first to third embodiments is that the suction port 11 of the first wick 9 does not have a coating 12 as a soluble portion.

In this way, when the suction port 11 of the first suction core 9 does not have the soluble portion 12, when inserting the binocular epicenters 9 and 10 into the container 1 for the first time during use, for example, the suction port 11 When wetted with a small amount of water, the second liquid 6 flows into the suction opening 1 of the first wick 9.
It's never number 1.

In any case, with the binocular epicenters 9 and 10 placed in the container l, the fourth. 9. As shown in FIG.
, the first wick 9 is isolated from the second liquid 6 by the cylindrical body 17).

Effects of the Invention According to the aroma deodorizing tool of the present invention, when two types of liquids 5 and 6 are placed in the container 1 and the same liquids 5 and 6 are divided into upper and lower layers, the liquids 5 and 6 can be reliably sucked up and dispersed by the pair of wicks 9 and 10.
