  Patent Document 2 discloses a foaming net having a bell-shaped skirt portion, and a hook or button is provided as a hanging means on the top of the bell-shaped skirt portion of the foaming net, and the skirt is used by using the hook or button. It is proposed that a solid soap container containing solid soap is detachably hung inside the portion.

JP-A-10-276828 JP 2009-1119096 A

  Since the foaming net of patent document 2 can incorporate solid soap, it is possible to make foam using a soap component derived from this soap. However, this foaming net has a hanging means such as a hard hook hanging from the top of the bell-shaped skirt part, so that you can feel the presence of the hard hook by hand to make foam. This is not a favorable feeling for the user. Even when the bar is not used, the presence of a hard hook is transmitted to the user when the foaming net is rubbed by hand, so the impression (use feeling) is not always good for the user.

  The object of the present invention is not only to incorporate a soap bar and create foam using the soap bar, but also to provide a soft feeling to the user when the soap is taken out and used. It is providing the foaming net and its manufacturing method.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the above technical problem is
A cylindrical skirt made of net material and open at both ends,
A foamed net having a bottomed bag portion connected to an upper end of the skirt portion and made of a net material, the bag portion being disposed inside the skirt portion and accommodating a soap bar. And
Connecting means extending in the circumferential direction for connecting the upper end of the skirt part and the open upper end of the bag part;
A string insertion passage formed between the upper end portion of the skirt portion and the upper end portion of the bag portion by the connecting means;
A string inserted into the string insertion path;
An opening formed in the skirt portion and extending the string from the string insertion passage to the outside;
This is achieved by providing a foaming net capable of closing the upper end opening of the skirt portion and the bag portion by drawing and squeezing the string.

  The bag portion is sized to accommodate a typical bar and the skirt portion extends below the closed end of the bag portion. In other words, the bag portion overlaps a part of the skirt portion, and the lower portion of the bag portion opens to the outside through the open end at the lower end of the skirt portion.

  By storing solid soap in the bag and drawing the string, the foamed net is in a closed state like a drawstring. Also, when taking out the soap bar from the foaming net, open the bag part by opening the skirt part and the upper end of the bag part, which is the same as widening the drawstring mouth, The soap bar can be taken out.

  As described above, since the foaming net of the present invention does not include an element such as a hard hook as in the prior art, it is used even when solid soap is incorporated or not used. Even at times, a soft feel can be provided to the user.

According to another aspect of the invention, the technical problem of the present invention is:
A first step of closing the one end of the cylindrical net material open at both ends to create a closed end;
A foamed net having a closed skirt portion positioned outside and a bag portion positioned inside the skirt portion by folding the closed end of the cylindrical net material having the closed end inside the cylindrical net material. A second step of making a prototype,
In order to form a string insertion passage between the upper end portion of the skirt portion and the upper end portion of the bag portion, the upper end portion of the skirt portion and the upper end portion of the bag portion, A third step of connecting the two to each other;
A fourth step of forming an opening formed at an upper end portion of the skirt portion and leading to the string insertion passage;
By providing the manufacturing method of the foaming net | network which has a 5th process of letting a string pass to the said string insertion channel | path through the said opening, the foaming net | network of this invention mentioned above can be made comparatively easily.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the foaming net of the embodiment. The foaming net 10 has a cylindrical skirt portion 12 having both ends open, and a bag portion 14 surrounded by the skirt portion 12 and having a bottom, and is entirely made of a net material having a through hole. The net material may be an integrally molded plastic net such as polyethylene, or a woven or knit product such as tulle or organdy using synthetic fibers such as rayon, polyester or nylon. Organdy has extremely small through holes and good touch. In general, the tulle has a through-hole that is relatively smaller than the organdy, although the through-hole is generally small. Tulle is not easily torn like organdy, and the deformation of the through-hole during use is slight compared to the plastic-integrated net.

  As will be described later, the foaming net 10 preferably has a plurality of layer structures such as a two-layer structure, and includes, for example, an outermost layer (typically, the outermost layer of the skirt portion 12) made of natural fibers. A net material may be used. In this embodiment, a net material made of an integrally molded plastic material is employed.

  With reference to FIG. 1, a cylindrical skirt portion 12 having both ends opened is provided with a bag portion 14 on the inner side on one side in the longitudinal direction. The bag portion 14 has one end opened and the other end Is blocked. In FIG. 1, the closed end of the bag portion 14 is indicated by reference numeral 14a. The open end 14 b of the bag portion 14 is connected to the upper end of the skirt portion 12. That is, referring to FIG. 1, the open end of the bag portion 14 is connected to the open upper end of the skirt portion 12 by a seam 16 that is continuous in the circumferential direction, and is continuous in the circumferential direction. A string insertion passage 22 for allowing a single continuous string 20 to pass therethrough is formed by the seam 16 (FIG. 2). The seam 16 is made by sewing. Of course, in the case of a plastic integrally formed net material, the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are connected and the string insertion passage 22 is formed by using a heat welding technique instead of the sewing machine hook for forming the seam 16. It may be. Therefore, in the following description, the term “seam 16” shows a case where sewing is performed with a thread as a typical example, and includes a case where the string insertion passage 22 is formed by heat welding as a modified example, and a term encompassing this. As "a connecting means extending in the circumferential direction".

  Reference numeral 24 in FIG. 1 indicates an opening for extending both ends of the string 20 from the string insertion passage 22 to the outside, and the opening 24 is formed at the upper end of the skirt portion 12. The seam 16 that is continuous in the circumferential direction is for forming a string insertion passage 22 between the upper end of the bag portion 14 and the upper end of the skirt portion 12. It also functions as a means for connecting the upper ends of the skirt portion 12 to each other.

  The closed end 14a of the bag portion 14 is located in the middle portion in the longitudinal direction of the skirt portion 12, and there is nothing in the region below the closed end 14a of the bag portion 14, and the lower end of the skirt portion 12 It opens to the outside through the open end.

  It is preferable that the ends of the string 20 exposed to the outside are bound together using a thread 26 or the like. Moreover, as a tool which can hang the foaming net | network 10, it is good to arrange | position locking tools, such as a suction cup 28, to the edge part of the string 20. FIG. Of course, a hook may be used instead of the suction cup 28 as a locking tool. When the foaming net 10 is not used, the foaming net 10 can be hung on the side wall of the bathroom by adsorbing the suction cups 28 to the side wall of the bathroom.

  The bag portion 14 of the whipping net 10 is prepared for putting solid soap therein. Therefore, the size of the bag portion 14 is preferably set to a size convenient for accommodating commercially available bar soap of the size normally seen. After the bar soap 14 is put into the bag portion 14, the open end 14 b of the bag portion 14 can be closed and closed by pulling the string 20. Of course, when the string 20 is pulled, the upper end of the skirt portion 12 integrated with the open end 14b of the bag portion 14 is also squeezed together with the upper end of the bag portion 14 like a drawstring, and the foaming net 10 Takes the shape of a bell.

  By storing the solid soap 30 in the bag portion 14, the foaming net 10 serves as a supply source of the soap component of the foaming net 10, and the skirt portion 12 creates bubbles with a finer area below the bag portion 14. Play a role. That is, the area below the bag portion 14 containing the soap bar performs the same function as a conventional foaming net that does not include the bag portion containing the soap bar. For example, by taking in air from the lower end opening of the skirt portion 12 and filling the skirt portion 12 with air, the lower region of the skirt portion 12 is manually rubbed to generate a large amount of silky bubbles that have taken in air. Can do. When an appropriate amount of foam is formed, the generated foam can be transferred to the palm of the hand by drawing the area below the skirt portion 12, and the face and body can be washed using the foam.

If it is desired to take out the soap bar 30 from the foaming net 10, an operation is performed to widen the upper end of the foaming net 10 that has been squeezed like a drawstring with the drawn string 20, so that the bag as shown in FIG. It can change to the state which the upper end of the part 14 and the skirt part 12 opened, and, thereby, the solid soap 30 in the bag part 14 can be taken out.
In addition, since the bag part 14 of the foaming net 10 can be maintained in a closed state by drawing and squeezing the string 20 at the upper end, it is convenient to hold a plurality of solid soaps that are reduced by use, The soap can be used up to the end. When the soap is temporarily stored every time the foaming net 10 is used, the skirt portion 12 can be used for temporary storage of the soap instead of the bag portion 14 for foaming.

  The foaming net 10 can also be used in a state where nothing is put in the bag portion 14. For example, by dropping liquid soap onto the foaming net 10 and holding the foaming net 10 with both hands, the bag part 14 and the skirt part 12 can cooperate to create fine foam. At this time, the foaming net 10 may be used in the state shown in FIG. 1, that is, in a state where both ends are open, or may be used in a state where the upper end is squeezed by pulling the string 20.

  In the foaming net 10 of the embodiment, as described above, the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are made of a common net material that is continuous with each other (integrated plastic material). However, as a modified example, the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are separately formed, and the seam 16 is formed by two seams spaced apart from each other up and down. A string insertion passage 22 is formed between them, and the upper ends of the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are connected to each other by the two seams 16 so that the foamed net 10 having the bag portion 14 on the inside is formed. May be. Of course, when the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are separately formed, the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 may be made of different net materials. Further, when the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 are made separately, the skirt portion 12 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and any form can be adopted. For example, the skirt portion 12 may have a shape such as a flare skirt that expands toward the lower end.

  Further, as will be described later in detail, the foaming net 10 of the embodiment has a two-layer structure (FIG. 2), both of the skirt 12 and the bag portion 14, but it is possible to make the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 separately. For example, the number of layers of the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 is arbitrary. For example, the skirt portion 12 may have a two-layer structure and the bag portion 14 may have a single-layer structure. Of course, when at least the skirt portion 12 or the bag portion 14 is constituted by a plurality of layers, the selection of the net material constituting each layer is arbitrary. For example, when the skirt portion 12 has a two-layer structure, the outer layer may be made of tulle or organdy, and the inner layer may be made of an integrally molded plastic net material.

  Drawing after FIG. 3 is a figure for demonstrating an example of how to make the foaming net | network 10 of an Example. First, an integrally molded plastic net material, for example, an integrally formed net of polyethylene is available in a cylindrical state. The cylindrical net material 100 is cut into a predetermined length, and one end is pulled inward or outward to be folded back into an inner / outer two-layer sleeve 102, and one end of the sleeve 102 is folded back of the net material 100. The other end is constituted by a cut end 100 b of the net material 100.

  FIG. 4 shows a state in which the other end of the sleeve 102 is closed by bundling and thermally welding the cut ends 100b of the net material constituting the other end of the sleeve 102. FIG. Next, the closed end 102a is put into the sleeve 102, and the original mold 106 shown in FIG. Reference numeral 108 in FIG. 4 indicates a folding line, and the folding line 108 constitutes the upper edge of the foaming net 10 (FIG. 7).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6, a string insertion passage 22 is formed by forming a seam 16 adjacent to the folding line 108 in parallel with the sewing machine line 16, and an opening 24 leading to the string insertion passage 22. Form. The opening 24 may be formed by using a through-hole of the net material 100 and fixing a ring member defining the opening 24 thereto.

  As can be seen from FIG. 7, the string insertion passage 22 is constituted by a space between the upper end portion of the skirt portion 12 having the two-layer structure and the upper end portion of the bag portion 14 having the same two-layer structure. The string 20 is inserted into the opening 24 leading to. After that, both ends of the string 20 are bound by the thread 26, and the suction net 28 is attached to the end of the string 20, whereby the above-described foaming net 10 is completed.

  As mentioned above, although an example of how to make the foaming net 10 of the present invention has been described, the foaming net 10 may have a single layer structure. Further, when the net material 100 is not the above-described cylindrical integrally formed plastic net material but a cloth sheet-like net material like organdy, the cloth sheet-like net material is folded in two to form a cylinder. The foamed net 10 can be made using a technique similar to that of a cylindrical integrally formed plastic net material.

  FIG. 8 shows a modified example, and the foamed net 200 of the illustrated modified example is composed of a first cylindrical net material 202 and a second cylindrical net material 204. A structure in which the second net material 204 is accommodated is employed. This structure can be easily made by those skilled in the art by complying with the method described above with reference to FIGS.

  The first net material 202 constitutes a cylindrical skirt portion 12 having both ends opened, and constitutes a bag portion 14 continuous thereto. On the other hand, the second net material 204 constitutes the skirt portion 12 and preferably extends to the upper end of the skirt portion 12 and the bag portion 14 and is integrated with the first net material 202 at the seam 16. In the illustrated example, the skirt portion 12 is configured such that the two layers of the second net material 204 are accommodated in the two layers of the first net material 202, and the bottomed bag portion 14 has two layers. Although the first net material 202 is composed of a layer, this configuration is arbitrary. For example, the second net material 204 may have a single layer structure. Further, the first net material 202 may have a single layer structure. For example, when both the first and second net materials 202 and 204 have a single layer structure, it is preferable that the lower end edge of the skirt portion 12 is sewn or frayed. In the case of a single-layer structure, the shape of the skirt portion 12 is arbitrary, and may have a shape that expands toward the lower end like a flare skirt.

  9 to 12 show a second embodiment. In the foaming net 300 of the second embodiment, a porous cloth (for example, organdy) is selected as the net material. Referring to FIG. 9, a sleeve 306 is formed by a seam 304 extending longitudinally by folding an organdy 302 of suitable rectangular size in half and sewing the side edges. Then, the sleeve 306 is turned upside down as shown in FIG. One end in the longitudinal direction of the sleeve 306 with the front and back reversed is sewn and closed. Reference numeral 308 in FIG. 11 indicates a seam that creates the closed end of the sleeve 306. The seam 308 may extend linearly or may be curved. The subsequent manufacturing method is substantially the same as that described above, but the skirt portion 12 has a two-layer structure by folding the open end side of the sleeve 306, while the bag portion 14 has a single-layer structure ( FIG. 12). In FIG. 12, the same elements as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals.
