Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for accommodating a fluid with high viscosity such as adhesives including various sealants. More specifically, the present invention relates to a container suitable for extruding its content therefrom in a predetermined amount by use of a known extruder such as an extruding gun.
  • An adhesive such as a sealant including a silicone sealant is generally distributed in a market in a state where it is accommodated in a cartridge 81 constituted by an injection molded body made of resin having a cross-section such as shown in Fig. 8.
  • the adhesive is extruded in a predetermined amount by use of an extruding gun 82 commercially available under a name of a caulking gun having an external view such as shown in Fig. 9(A), and a cross-section of the main portion such as shown in Fig. 9(B).
  • the cartridge 81 has a structure in which a cylindrical outlet 812 is formed at one end portion of a cylindrical body 811, and a movable bottom 813 which is slidable along an inner surface of the cylindrical body 811 is provided at the other end portion.
  • An opening at an inside of the outlet 812 is sealed with an aluminum foil 814.
  • the aluminum foil 814 is torn away and removed before use.
  • a male thread 812a is formed at an outer peripheral surface of the outlet 812.
  • a nozzle (not shown) which is a cylindrical body in the shape of cone is screwed into the male thread 812a. Then, the nozzle is cut at a position where a desired opening diameter is obtained, and the cartridge 81 is mounted to the extruding gun.
  • the extruding gun 82 shown as an example in Fig. 9, is of a hermetically closed type, and is mainly constituted by: a cylinder 821 both ends of which are opened; a cover 822 removably mounted at one end of the cylinder 821 and formed with a small opening 822a; a piston 823 movably provided within the cylinder 821; a trigger system 824 for moving the piston 823; a support member 825 for supporting a rod of the piston 823 and the trigger system 824 and for blocking the other end side of the cylinder 821.
  • the reference numeral 826 denotes a guide fitted so as to be relatively movable with respect to the rod of the piston 823.
  • the cover 822 is removed and the cartridge 81 is inserted into the cylinder 821 in such a manner that the outlet 812 thereof is directed to the side of the cover 822. After that, the cover is mounted and the outlet 812 is projected to the outside through the small opening 822a of the cover 822.
  • the trigger 824 is operated to move the piston 823 toward the cover 822. Thereby, the piston 823 pushes the movable bottom 813, so as to extrude the content such as a sealant from the cartridge 81 through the outlet 812.
  • extruding gun of a hermetically closed type having a cylindrical cylinder 821 such as shown in Fig. 9, also commercially available is an extruding gun of an open type having a semi-cylindrical extruding cylinder upper half section of which is opened.
  • the conventional cartridge 81 such as described above has a problem as follows.
  • the volume of the cartridge remains unchanged even after its content is run out, and therefore, high cost is required for treating the empty cartridge based on the container recycling law.
  • it is required to hermetically attach the movable bottom 813 to the inside of the cylindrical body 811 with the outlet 812 integrally formed. This causes a problem of high production cost is required.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a container which, as compared with a conventional cartridge, can be more easily treated when its content is run out, resulting in largely cutting off the cost required for treating the empty container, and which can be produced at remarkably lower cost, and also which is capable of extruding the content such as a sealant at the same workability as a conventional cartridge, when used by use of a conventional extruding gun.
  • an extruding outlet (may be called spout) 2 including an extruding nozzle 22 is attached at one end portion of a pouch 1 which accommodates a fluid with high viscosity such as a sealant in a hermetic state.
  • the pouch 1 is perforated at the position where the extruding outlet 2 is attached to the pouch 1.
  • the content can be extruded at the same workability as a conventional rigid cartridge by use of a conventional extruding gun.
  • the volume of the container after the content is run out can be reduced to the size of about a several tens of a conventional cartridge.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a container of the present invention before mounted to an extruding gun;
  • Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the vicinity of an extruding outlet unit 2 according to an embodiment shown in Fig. 1;
  • Fig 3 is a explanatory structural diagram showing a pouch 1 used in an embodiment of the present invention, where Fig. 3(A) is a front view showing a state where no content is accommodated, and Fig. 3(B) is a cross-sectional view along the line B-B of Fig. 3(A);
  • Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the main portion showing the state where the container is mounted in an extruding gun according to an embodiment of the present invention

  • Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing an exemplary structure of a cover 23 which has a function of perforating a pouch and is effective when accompanied with the container according to an embodiment of the present invention
  • Fig. 7 is a diagram for illustrating another explanatory structure of an extruding outlet according to the present invention, and is a cross-sectional view of an extruding outlet in which a flange section to be attached to a pouch and an extruding nozzle are integrally formed;
  • Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing an exemplary structure of a cartridge for accommodating an adhesive such as a sealant in a freely extrudable manner;
  • Fig. 9 is a diagram for illustrating a structure of a commercially available extruding gun for extruding a content from the cartridge shown in Fig. 8, where Fig. 8(A) is an external view thereof, and Fig. 8(B) is a cross-sectional view of a main portion thereof.

  • An extruding outlet including an extruding nozzle of the same type as that used in a conventional cartridge is attached to an end portion of the pouch, and the pouch is perforated at the position where the extruding outlet is attached. Then, the pouch is deformed by a piston by use of a conventional extruding gun of hermetically closed type.
  • the fluid with high viscosity such as a sealant, which is a content filling the container, can be extruded in a predetermined amount in each time at the same workability as a conventional extruding gun.
  • substantially all the amount of the content can be extruded with no content remaining in the container. The experiment affirmed the above.
  • the container of the present invention has a main body which is a soft or flexible pouch, the volume of the empty container after all the amount of the content has been extruded is remarkably small, as compared with the a conventional rigid cartridge. As a result, a cost required for treating the empty container can be largely cut off, and the cost for producing the container also can be largely lowered.
  • the pouch for accommodating a content such as a sealant is hermetically closed in an unused state.
  • the pouch is perforated at an inside of the extruding outlet to allow the content to be extruded therefrom.
