に極めて良好に作業できる効果を持つ。 [Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a paint container that stores synthetic resin paints and other paints, and when a brush is inserted into the paint container to apply the paint, the excess amount that adheres to the brush is removed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a paint container from which paint can be easily removed. Conventionally, when applying paint by inserting a brush into the paint container, when the brush with paint adhered to it is removed from the paint container, excess paint adhering to the brush drips from the brush and stains the surrounding area. It had the drawback of being easy. On the other hand, as in the "Paint Container Container" disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 53-18455, there is a fixture in which a brush handling body and a brush fixing body are formed on the inner periphery of an annular body having a projection or groove. Alternatively, a paint storage container is known in which a groove is fitted to the outer edge of the upper opening of the paint container. However, since the brush handling body of this "paint storage container" protrudes horizontally from the upper opening of the paint container, the area of the upper opening of the paint container, which is the space for inserting the brush, is reduced and the area inside the paint container is reduced. In addition to impeding the work of impregnating the brush with paint, especially when the amount of paint remaining in the container is low, this brush handling body or brush fixing body may not be able to penetrate from the outer periphery of the opening to the bottom of the container. This has the disadvantage that it obstructs the field of view, limits the effective area of the opening when impregnating the brush with paint, and also serves as an obstruction to the worker's view of the bottom of the container, further impairing work efficiency. The present invention relates to a paint container that can overcome the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to drawings showing examples thereof. 1 to 3 show a paint container A1 comprising a paint container main body 1 with a tongue-shaped brush sliding piece 3 integrally hanging from the opening periphery 2 thereof. FIG. 4 shows a paint container A2 in which a brush sliding piece 3 with a corrugated tip is integrally formed to hang down from the opening periphery 2 of the paint container main body 1. FIG. 5 shows a paint container A3 in which a comb tooth-shaped brush sliding piece 3 is integrally formed to hang down from the opening periphery 2 of the paint container main body 1. When applying paint using the paint containers A (A 1 to A 3 ) of the present invention, as shown in FIG .
is inserted into the paint container A to deposit the paint C stored in the paint container A. Then, when taking out the brush B with the paint C adhered to it from the paint container A , rub the tip of the brush B against the brush sliding piece 3 and slide it. When the excess paint C adhering to the brush B is removed and taken out by moving the brush B, there is no fear that the surplus paint C drips from the brush B as in the conventional case. Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, if the brush sliding piece 3 is formed into a corrugated or comb-tooth shape to make the tip narrow, excess paint adhering to the brush sliding piece 3 will be removed from the fine tip. Since the paint collects and drips into the paint container A and is smoothly returned to the interior of the paint container A, there is no risk of a large amount of paint remaining on the brush sliding piece 3, which is advantageous. In addition, when the brush sliding piece 3 is formed to hang down from the opening periphery 2 of the paint container body 1, the steps shown in FIGS. 1, 2,
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, it may be formed to partially hang down from the opening periphery 2, or it may be formed to hang down over the entire circumference of the opening periphery 2. In addition, in FIGS. 1 to 6, 4 is a handle attached to the paint container body 1, and the handle 4 is attached to the first
If the paint container A is mounted eccentrically from the center line 5 of the paint container main body 1 as shown in FIGS. Therefore, when the brush B is put in and taken out of the paint container A to deposit and apply the paint C, the brush B can be put in and taken out smoothly without being obstructed by the handle 4, and the paint container Even when the residual paint C inside A becomes low, the paint C collects at the bottom corner inside the paint container A , and the brush 4 is inserted to easily adhere the residual paint C and use it without wasting it. This is convenient because it allows you to In addition, in FIGS. 1 to 3, 6 is a lid plate that covers the opening of the paint container A. As described above, in the paint container of the present invention, the handle is attached to the paint container main body with the handle eccentric from the center line of the paint container main body, and Since the paint container has a brush sliding piece hanging down inside the paint container body, the working space of the opening of the paint container body is not restricted, so the brush workability is not hindered and the brush can be inserted into the paint container. The handle is attached to the paint container main body with the handle eccentric from the center line of the paint container main body when the paint is applied and pulled up, and the brush sliding piece is on the side facing the attachment position of the handle on the paint container main body. Since the paint container is formed to hang down around the opening of the brush, when the paint container is lifted by the handle, the entire paint container will naturally tilt as shown in Figure 6, and the space between the brush sliding piece and the hand holding the handle will be reduced. As the brush grows larger, the tip of the brush tilts as the container tilts, and the tip protrudes toward the opening. Moreover, since the brush sliding piece is formed hanging inside the paint container body, even when the amount of paint remaining is low, it is easy to lift the paint container by the handle. If this happens, the entire paint container will naturally incline, and as a result of this inclination, the tip of the brush sliding piece will protrude toward the opening, so the brush sliding piece may become an obstruction to the brush work, or It has the effect of making it possible to work extremely well without obstructing the person's field of vision.
