Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately adjust volatilization of a volatile substance in accordance with temperature by providing an opening/closing device actuated in accordance with temperature. SOLUTION: A bag 10 is formed of aluminum 10A and plastics 10B and provided with a container part 11 having an opening 12 at the upper part. A volatile aromatic 14 is contained at the lower part of the inside. An opening and closing device 13 is made of tabular shape memory alloys 13A, 13B, and formed so that two sides of the opening 12 are superposed with each other when the temperature of the surroundings rises up to a first temperature, and further the shape memory alloy 13A, 13B are bent when it becomes lower than the first temperature and the opening 12 is opened. The shape memory alloy 13A, 13B are deformed to a linearly stretched state and the opening 12 is closed and hence the volatilizing quantity of the aromatic 14 is decreased, when the inside temperature of a car rises higher than the first temperature. Further, the opening 12 is opened when it gets down lower than a second temperature, and the aromatic 14 is volatilized to emit an aroma. In this way, the shape memory alloy 13A, 13B are deformed at two high and low temperatures to open or close the opening 12.

FIG. 8 shows the change over time of the volatilization rate when a fragrance (fragrance) is put in a bag in which the width of the opening is set at a predetermined interval and the fragrance is left at room temperature. The vertical axis represents the volatilization rate using the dimension of the opening as a parameter, and the elapsed time (days) is plotted on the horizontal axis. From this figure, it can be seen that the volatilization rate changes according to the size of the opening. Therefore, if the opening is narrowed, the volatilization rate of the fragrance can be kept low.

When the bag 10 constructed as described above is installed in, for example, an automobile, the operation is as follows. For example, when no person is riding in the scorching sun and the temperature inside the vehicle is equal to or higher than the first temperature of 40 degrees, as shown in FIG.
3A and 13B are deformed to extend linearly, and the opening 12 is closed. Thereby, the volatilization amount of the fragrance 14 at the time of high temperature is reduced. On the other hand, when a person gets on the vehicle and activates the air conditioner, or in winter or the like, when the ambient temperature becomes equal to or lower than the second temperature of 25 degrees, both shape memory alloys 13A and 13A are used.
B is curved in an arc shape, and the opening 12 is opened as shown in FIG. Thereby, the fragrance 14 evaporates and its scent is released to the surroundings. In this way, at two temperatures, high and low, the shape memory alloys 13A and 13B are rapidly deformed, and the opening and closing operation of the opening 12 occurs.
