The container has an insertion port into which the evaporant holder is inserted, and a planar heating plate or the like is used as the heat generating portion.

In the conventional heating and evaporating apparatus, the heating part is exposed to the outside through the insertion hole of the evaporant holder, and thus the user or infant's finger may unexpectedly come into contact with the heated heating part.
On the other hand, if a lid-shaped member is provided so as to cover the heat-generating portion in order to avoid such contact, the vaporized drug may be shielded by the lid-shaped member, and the vaporization efficiency of the drug may be significantly reduced. It was inevitable.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a heating and evaporating apparatus which can maintain the evaporating efficiency of a medicine in a good state and is easy to use.

(5) In the state where the lid is closed to the vessel, a gap between the vessel and an upper end portion of the lid and / or a transpiration port is formed in the vessel. The heat evaporation device according to 1).
(6) The heating and evaporating apparatus according to (5), wherein the evaporating port is provided to open vertically above an upper end of the evaporant holder.
(7) In a state where the lid is closed to the container, a first air inlet is formed in a gap between the container and a lower end portion of the lid and / or in the container. The heat evaporation device according to (1), wherein the air intake is opened at a position lower than the lower end of the evaporant holding member in the vertical direction.
(8) The heating and evaporation device according to (1), wherein a second air intake is provided at a portion of the vessel that is substantially opposite to the lid in a horizontal direction.

The heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention has a configuration in which the heat generating portion is covered by a lid having an opening having a predetermined opening ratio.
That is, the plurality of elongated openings are configured such that the aperture ratio with respect to the area of the lid surface is 40% or more. For this reason, when the opening ratio is less than 40%, the state in which the evaporated drug adheres to the gap of the opening and remains, and further, the decrease in the transpiration due to the adhesion such as a poor air flow is prevented. Can be prevented. Therefore, the transpiration efficiency of the medicine with an appropriate opening ratio can be favorably maintained.
The plurality of elongated openings are configured such that the length in the short direction is 5 mm or less. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the finger of the user or the infant from being inserted into the opening and coming into contact with the heated heat generating portion or the evaporant holder. In addition, since the lid is an openable / closable type, even if a finger cannot be removed from the opening, opening the lid can prevent the finger from contacting the heat generating portion. Therefore, the heat evaporation apparatus according to the present invention can provide a convenient heat evaporation apparatus while maintaining good evaporation efficiency of the medicine.

The heat evaporation device according to the present invention is configured such that the plurality of openings have an opening ratio of 40% or more with respect to the area of the lid surface, and each opening has a maximum dimension length of 5 mm or less. You can also.
That is, by configuring the plurality of openings to have an opening ratio of 40% or more, the transpiration efficiency of the medicine can be favorably maintained for the same reason as described above.
In addition to the above configuration, if the maximum dimensional length of each of these openings is configured to be 5 mm or less, the shape of the opening is not limited to the slit, and the fingers of the user or infant can be any shape. It can be prevented from being inserted into the opening. In addition, since the lid is openable, even if a finger is inserted into the opening, the lid can be opened to prevent contact between the finger and the heat generating portion. At this time, the shape of the opening can be, for example, a polygon such as a square, a rectangle, a triangle or a pentagon, or a circle such as a perfect circle or an ellipse.
The lid is not limited to the openable type, but may be a detachable type that is removable.

  According to the above-mentioned heat evaporation device, it is preferred that the plurality of openings are formed such that the length in the short direction becomes larger as approaching the evaporant holding member. This makes it difficult for the vaporized drug (liquid) to adhere to the gap between the openings, thereby maintaining a good (normal) vaporization efficiency of the drug. Here, the lid is formed with a plurality of pillars that define a longitudinal portion of each of the plurality of openings, and these pillars have, for example, a cross-sectional shape (a pillar parallel to the lateral direction). (A cross-sectional shape when cut by the above) can be a triangular shape having a base on the front surface side or the rear surface side of the lid.

According to the above-described heating and evaporating apparatus, it is preferable that a transpiration port is formed in the gap between the container and the upper end of the lid and / or in the container with the lid closed. At the site located above the evaporant holder inside the vessel, the adhered vaporized drug is particularly remarkable. When the vaporized drug adheres and accumulates on the portion located above this, a part of the accumulated drug adheres to the lid and remains, and thus the air flow deteriorates, and the transpiring property is reduced due to the adhesion. descend. Therefore, if a transpiration port is provided in a portion located above this, the vaporized medicine is vaporized outside the body via the transpiration port without accumulating. For this reason, the heat evaporation apparatus does not reduce the evaporation efficiency of the medicine.
Such a transpiration port is preferably provided so as to open vertically above the upper end of the evaporant holder.

According to the above-described heating and evaporating apparatus, the first air inlet is formed in the gap between the container and the lower end portion of the lid and / or in the state where the lid is closed in the container. Is preferred. With this configuration, since air is introduced into the vessel via the first air inlet, the efficiency of evaporating the medicine can be further improved.
It is preferable that a second air intake is provided at a portion of the container substantially opposite to the lid in the horizontal direction. In this case, since air is introduced into the vessel via the second air intake, the efficiency of vaporization of the medicine can be further improved.

The container may be provided with a holding portion for elastically supporting the evaporant holding member. Although there is no limitation on the form of the holding portion, examples thereof include a leaf spring, a coil spring, an elastic resin plate, rubber, and a sponge.
As the evaporant holding member, in addition to an evaporant holding member such as a mat, a material in which a heated evaporating liquid is accommodated in a container and the opening of the container is closed with a gas permeable film can be used.
Examples of the heat generating portion include a type in which the evaporant holder is heated from the back side to evaporate the medicine from the front side of the evaporant holder. For example, it is preferable to use a heat generating portion for heating the evaporant holding member in a planar manner. By providing the surface to be the heating surface having the heat generating portion at 45 ° with respect to the horizontal direction, it becomes possible to use both the outlet and the table tap having the outlet on the upper surface. Further, by providing a movable plug, a configuration may be adopted in which the outlet and the power strip having the outlet on the upper surface can be used.

In the present invention, as a drug, a drug (chemical solution) such as an insecticide, a bactericide, an acaricide, or a repellent, a medicine, an aromatic, a deodorant, an insect repellent, a cosmetic, or the like is used. For example, the following various agents conventionally used for pest control are exemplified.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a heating and evaporating apparatus 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a body 11 and a lid 12 provided to be openable and closable with respect to the body 11. The lid body 12 has a lid surface 12a that is inclined (for example, inclined at 10 to 60 degrees) with respect to a horizontal direction (a direction parallel to the ground) in a state in which the lid body 12 is closed with respect to the container body 11. A plurality of openings 13 are provided on the lid surface 12a. Here, a plurality of openings 13 are provided so as to extend in a vertically elongated shape. The longitudinal portions of these openings 13 are defined by pillars 12 c of the lid 12.

  At the upper end of the lid 12, a finger hook 12b is provided. When the user places his or her hand on the finger hook 12b and applies a force to the lid 12 as indicated by an arrow O in the figure, the lid 12 pivots about the lower end thereof around its lower end, and the upper end rotates. The body 11 is opened.

In the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 of the present embodiment, the opening ratio of the plurality of openings 13 to the cover surface 12a of the cover 12 is set to be 40% or more (45% in the present embodiment) in a practicable range. It is configured. Note that the aperture ratio here refers to the ratio of the total area of the openings of the plurality of openings 13 to the area of the lid surface 12a.
Here, when the plurality of openings 13 are configured to have an opening ratio of less than 40%, a state in which the evaporated drug adheres to the gaps of the openings 13 and remains, and thus the flow of air deteriorates. The transpiration decreases due to adhesion.
Therefore, by configuring the plurality of openings 13 to have an opening ratio of 40% or more, a state in which the vaporized medicine adheres to the gaps of the openings 13 and remains, and thus the flow of air deteriorates, It is possible to prevent a phenomenon in which transpiration is reduced due to adhesion.

The plurality of openings 13 are configured so that the opening ratio is 40% or more, and each of the openings 13 has a length in the short direction of 5 mm or less (2.5 mm in the present embodiment). It is configured to be. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the fingers of the user and the infant from coming into contact with the heat generating portion and the evaporant holder not shown in FIG. Since the lid 12 is an openable / closable type, even if a finger cannot be removed from the opening 13, it is possible to prevent the finger from coming into contact with the heat generating portion by opening the lid 12.
Therefore, it is possible to provide a heating and evaporating apparatus which can maintain the evaporating efficiency of the medicine well and is easy to use.

As shown in FIG. 2A, which is an overall perspective view of the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 in a state where the lid 12 is opened, the lid 12 is opened, and the inner surface of the lid 12 (the surface opposite to the lid surface 12a) is placed on the inner surface. The evaporant holder 20 is set. It should be noted that the drawing does not show a heat-generating portion described later.
As shown in FIG. 2B, which is a cross-sectional view of the lid 12 in the vertical direction (vertical direction in the drawing), a leaf spring 18 serving as a pressing portion is provided on the inner surface of the lid 12. The leaf spring 18 formed in a rectangular shape is cantilevered at the upper end side of the lid 12, extends downward and in a direction approaching the container 11 (in a direction away from the lid 12), and has a length of more than half. It is bent at the distal end side, and extends obliquely in a direction approaching the lid 12 beyond the bent portion.
A rib stopper 19 a is provided upright on the inner surface of the lid 12 at the lower end side from the tip of the leaf spring 18. The evaporant holder 20 is inserted into and attached to the inner surface of the lid 12 from the direction indicated by the arrow I in the figure.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in one example of the evaporant holding body 20, the evaporant holding body 20 covers an upper opening of a substantially rectangular parallelepiped container 21 containing a heated evaporating liquid with a gas-permeable film 22. Is provided with a flange-like side edge portion 23 on the upper peripheral edge of the upper portion. The container 21 can be made of, for example, metal. Since the evaporant holding body 20 heats the lower surface of the container 21 and evaporates the medicine through the gas permeable film 22, there is no fear of clogging.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the evaporant holding body 20 is attached to the lid 12, when viewed from the direction of arrow I in FIG. 2B, L-shaped guides are provided on both side edges of the lid 12. 19b, 19b are provided. The guide 19b extends substantially parallel to the lid surface 12a of the lid 12. The above-described leaf springs 18 are provided as a pair on the inner surface of the lid 12 at intervals in the width direction, and each leaf spring 18 is located near the guide 19b.
With the lid 12 opened, the side edge 23 of the evaporant holder 20 is inserted between the leaf spring 18 and the guide 19b. The evaporant holder 20 is inserted until the tip of the evaporant holder 20 contacts the rib stopper 19a shown in FIG. Thus, the side edge portion 23 of the evaporant holding body 20 is held between the bent portion of the leaf spring 18 and the guide 19b.

  As shown in FIG. 5, which is an overall cross-sectional view of the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 in a state in which the lid 12 is closed after the evaporant holding body 20 is attached, the vicinity of the bent portion of the leaf spring 18 is inclined so that the evaporating agent is held. The body 20 is pressed toward the heating section 25. When the lid 12 is closed, the evaporant holder 20 is pressed against the heat generating portion 25, and the leaf spring 18 is elastically deformed to a greater extent than before the lid 12 was closed. Therefore, the leaf spring 18 firmly supports the evaporant holder 20 by a strong elastic force. The evaporant holder 20 is supported in a state of being inclined at, for example, 10 to 90 degrees with respect to the horizontal direction.

  When power is supplied through the terminal 25a, the heat is transmitted to the heat generating body 25b, and the heat generating section 25 heats the back surface of the evaporant holding body 20 in a planar manner. Then, a chemical such as an insecticide evaporates through the gas permeable film on the surface of the evaporant holder 20, and evaporates to the outside through the opening 13 of the lid 12.

  A power supply plug 26 that is inserted into an outlet is provided on a back portion 11b that stands vertically on the bottom portion 11a of the housing 11. The plug 26 may be provided so as to project from the bottom 11a. The plug 26 may be movably provided on the body 11 so as to be able to take both positions of protruding from the back 11b and protruding from the bottom 11a. If the plug 26 is movable, for example, the heating and evaporation device can be attached to both an outlet provided on an indoor wall surface and a table tap having an outlet on the upper surface.

As shown in FIG. 6 which is a cross-sectional view of the heating and transpiration measure 10 viewed from the arrow A shown in FIG. 5, which does not show the leaf spring 18, the evaporating agent holder 20, and the heat generating part 25, the column 12 c of the lid 12 is The cross section is triangular, and the bottom surface of this triangle is located on the lid surface 12a side.
In this way, the opening 13 of the lid 12 has a wide width (length in the short direction of each opening 13) on the side of the evaporant holding body (not shown) and a narrow width on the side of the lid surface 12a. Is configured.
In other words, the openings 13 are formed such that the length in the short direction increases as the distance from the evaporant holding body increases.
Since the short side length of each of the openings 13 on the side of the evaporant holding member is widened, the evaporative medicine easily passes through the openings 13 toward the lid surface. For this reason, it is possible to suppress a state in which the medicine remains in each of the openings 13, that is, a so-called clogged state.

  The column portion 12c of the lid 12 is not limited to a configuration having a triangular cross section. The column portion 12c may be configured such that, for example, the cross section has a shape such as a trapezoid.

  The heat evaporation apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment has a configuration in which an evaporation port 31 is formed in a gap between an upper end portion of the lid 12 (an upper portion of the lid 12 when viewed from the left side in FIG. 5) and the body 11. Have. The evaporation port 31 is provided so as to open vertically above the upper end 20 a of the evaporation agent holding body 20. The transpiration port 31 may be provided not only in the gap with the container 11 but also in the container 11. That is, in the heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention, in the state where the lid 12 is closed to the container 11, the gap between the container 11 and the upper end portion of the lid 12 and / or the evaporation port 31 is formed in the container 11. It may be.

The vaporized drug adheres particularly to a portion of the heating and vaporizing device 10 located above the evaporant holder 20, and the adhered drug shields the opening of the lid to reduce the vaporization efficiency of the drug. Tend.
Therefore, if a configuration is provided in which the evaporation port 31 is opened vertically upward with respect to the upper end 20a of the evaporating agent holding body 20, the drug evaporated from the evaporation port 31 is discharged to the outside of the heating evaporation apparatus 10. . For this reason, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the evaporation efficiency of the medicine caused by the adhesion of the evaporated medicine to a site inside the heating and evaporation apparatus 10.

In the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, the first air intake 32 is provided in a gap between the lower end portion of the lid 12 (the lower portion of the lid 12 as viewed from the left side in FIG. It has a formed configuration. The first air inlet 32 may be provided not only in the gap with the body 11 but also in the body 11. In other words, in the heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention, in a state where the lid 12 is closed to the container 11, the gap between the container 11 and the lower end portion of the lid 12 and / or the first air intake to the container 11. An inlet 32 may be formed.
In the present embodiment, the first air inlet 32 is formed so as to open at a position lower than the lower end 20 b of the evaporant holder 20 in the vertical direction.
Air outside the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 is introduced into the inside of the housing 11 from the first air inlet 32. Since the vaporization of the drug is promoted by the introduced air, the vaporization efficiency of the drug is improved.
It is preferable that the gap between the lower end of the lid 12 and the body 11 is configured in a range of 1 mm to 8 mm.

In the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, a plurality of second air inlets 33 are provided on a back portion 11 b that is vertically provided on a bottom portion 11 a of the body 11.
With reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, as shown in FIG. 7, in a state where the heating and evaporating apparatus of FIG. 5 is viewed from the right side as viewed in the figure (a state where the back part 11 b is viewed from the front), a plurality of second air intakes are provided. Reference numeral 33 denotes a configuration in which three are arranged on the back portion 11b in the vertical direction (vertical direction in FIG. 7) and five in the horizontal direction (right and left direction in FIG. 7). The number and arrangement of the second air inlets 33 are not limited to this configuration. The plurality of second air intakes 33 may be the same in size or different from each other, and may be appropriately formed in the back without being arranged.

  Each of the second air intakes 33 is formed to be a concave portion, and is configured such that a hole 33a communicating with the inside of the container body 11 is opened on a lower side surface defining the concave portion. Each of the second air inlets 33 is configured such that an intruder such as a tapered member (not shown) inserted into the second air inlet 33 from the outside of the body 11 hits the bottom of the concave portion. I have. That is, the heating and evaporating apparatus 10 can prevent the invading matter that has unexpectedly entered the inside of the housing 11 from damaging the heat generating portion 25 and the like by the second air inlet 33.

Next, a second embodiment of the heat evaporation apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the embodiments described below, the members and the like having the same configurations and operations as the members and the like already described are denoted by the same reference numerals or corresponding reference numerals in the drawings, and the description thereof will be simplified or omitted.
As shown in FIG. 8, the heating and evaporating apparatus 40 of the present embodiment has a lid 42 in which a plurality of square or rectangular openings 43 partitioned in a substantially lattice shape are formed.

In the heating and evaporating apparatus 40 of the present embodiment, the opening ratio of the plurality of openings 43 to the cover surface 42a of the cover 42 is set to be in a range of 40% or more (45% in the present embodiment).
Here, when the plurality of openings 43 are configured to have an opening ratio of less than 40%, a state in which the evaporated drug adheres to the gap of the openings 43 and remains, that is, a state like so-called clogging. . Then, the evaporation efficiency of the medicine is reduced.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the plurality of openings 43 are configured so that the opening ratio becomes 40% or more, so that the evaporated drug adheres to the gaps of the openings 43 and remains, that is, so-called clogging. Is prevented.

Further, the plurality of openings 43 are configured so that the opening ratio is 40% or more, and the maximum dimensional length of each of the openings 43 is 5 mm or less (2.5 mm in the present embodiment). It is configured as follows.
Here, the maximum dimensional length means the length of the portion where the dimension is the largest for each of the openings 43. For example, in the case of the plurality of openings 43 shown in FIG. 8, since the size of the diagonal of each opening 43 is the largest, the length of the diagonal is set to 5 mm or less. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the finger of the user or the infant from coming into contact with the heat generating portion or the evaporant holder not shown in FIG. Since the lid 42 is an openable / closable type, even if the finger cannot be removed, it is possible to prevent the finger from coming into contact with the heat generating portion by opening the lid 42. The lid 42 may be an openable / closable type and a detachable type that can be removed. Further, the lid 42 is not limited to the openable / closable type, but may be simply a detachable type. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a heating and evaporating apparatus that can maintain the evaporating efficiency of the medicine satisfactorily and that is easy to use.

In the present embodiment, a configuration may be employed in which a gap between the container 41 and the upper end of the lid 42 and / or a transpiration port 61 is formed in the container 41.
Further, a configuration may be employed in which a first air intake 62 is formed in a gap between the container 41 and the lower end of the lid 42 and / or in the container 41.
Further, although not shown in FIG. 8, a configuration in which a second air intake is formed in the back portion 41 b of the body 41 can be adopted. The structure of each of the transpiration port 61, the first air intake 62, and the second air intake, and the respective operations and effects thereof are the same as those of the second air intake 33 described in the first embodiment. .
In the present embodiment, the opening 43 is not limited to a square or a rectangle. The opening 43 can be, for example, a polygon such as a triangle or a pentagon, or a circle such as a perfect circle or an ellipse.

Next, a third embodiment of the heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the embodiments described below, the members and the like having the same configurations and operations as the members and the like already described are denoted by the same reference numerals or corresponding reference numerals in the drawings, and the description thereof will be simplified or omitted.
As shown in FIG. 9, in the heating and evaporating apparatus 70 of the present embodiment, a plurality of openings 73 extending in a vertically elongated shape are formed in a lid 72. Here, the shapes and dimensions of the plurality of openings 73 are substantially equal.

  The opening ratio of the plurality of openings 73 to the cover surface 72a of the cover 72 is set to be in a range of 40% or more (45% in the present embodiment). The plurality of openings 73 are each configured to have a length in the short direction of 5 mm or less (2.5 mm in the present embodiment).

  As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the heating and evaporating apparatus 70 includes a power switch 93 below the first air intake 92 in the body 71. The power switch 93 is configured to be switchable between an “ON” side for supplying power to the heat generating unit 85 and an “OFF” side for not supplying power. When the user switches the power switch 93 to the “ON” side in business, power is supplied to the heat generating section 85.

  Further, the heating and evaporating device 70 includes a display unit 94 above the evaporating port 91 in the container 71. The display unit 94 is made of a transparent or translucent resin or the like. A light emitting body 95 is provided inside the container 71 substantially below the display unit 94, and emits light when the power switch 93 is switched to the “ON” side. Then, the light of the light emitting body 95 leaks to the outside of the body 71 via the display unit 94. For this reason, the user can easily confirm whether or not the power is supplied to the heating unit 85 of the heating and evaporating device 70 by the display unit 94. The power switch 93 itself may be configured to emit light. For example, a configuration may be adopted in which green light is illuminated on the “ON” side and red light is illuminated on the “OFF” side. By doing so, the user can know the positions of the heating and evaporating device 70 and the power switch 93 based on the light emission of the power switch 93, so that the usability is good.

  As shown in FIG. 10, a positioning piece 78 serving as a pressing portion is provided on the inner surface of the lid 72 of the present embodiment. The positioning pieces 78 are provided as a pair on the inner surface of the lid 72 at intervals in the width direction, and each positioning piece 78 is located near the guide 79b. Here, each positioning piece 78 is integrally formed on the inner surface of the lid 72, and the tip of the positioning piece 78 is in contact with the side edge 83 of the evaporant holder 80.

With the lid 72 opened, the side edge 83 of the evaporant holder 80 is inserted between the positioning piece 78 and the guide 79b. Then, the evaporant holder 80 is inserted until the lower portion of the side edge portion 83 hits the rib stopper 79a. Thus, the side edge portion 83 of the evaporant holding member 80 is in a state of being sandwiched by the distal end portion of the positioning piece 78 and the guide 79b.
By keeping the area S to be heated of the container 81 constant, it is possible to obtain a medicine having a short expiration date or a long term medicine only by adjusting the dose while keeping the size of the container 81 the same.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the container 81 of the evaporant retainer 80 has a deep bottom portion 81a and a shallow bottom portion 81b whose bottom is formed to be shallower than that of the deep bottom portion 81a. As shown in FIG. 10, the evaporant holding member 80 is configured such that the deep bottom portion 81a is higher than the shallow bottom portion 81b when attached to the lid 72.

Further, as shown in FIG. 10, when the evaporant holding member 80 is attached to the lid 72, the heat generating portion 85 contacts the lower surface of the shallow portion 81 b in FIG. 10.
A chemical is sealed in advance in the deep-bottom portion 81a and the shallow-bottom portion 81b of the evaporant holder 80 with a gas-permeable film. Then, when power is supplied to the heat generating portion 85 in a business, the medicine stored in the shallow bottom portion 81 b of the evaporant holding member 80 evaporates by being heated by the heat generating portion 85. Here, when the medicine is also stored in the deep portion 81a, even if the drug stored in the shallow portion 81b is reduced by evaporation, the drug moves from the deep portion 81a by its own weight.

  Next, a modification of the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 12A is the same as the evaporant holder 80 shown in FIG. In FIGS. 12A to 12C, the gas permeable film and the medicine are not shown.

  Each of the evaporant holders 180 shown in FIG. 12B has a shallow bottom 181b formed with a projection 181c standing on the gas permeable film side. Therefore, when the medicine is sealed in the container 181 of the evaporant holding member 180 with a gas permeable film, the amount of the medicine stored in the shallow bottom portion 181b becomes smaller than that of the evaporant holding member 80 by the protrusion 181c. .

  A projection 281c is also formed on the shallow bottom 281b of the evaporant holder 280 shown in FIG. The area of the protruding portion 281c as viewed from above (a state viewed from above in FIGS. 12B and 12C) is larger than that of the protruding portion 181c of the evaporant holder 180. Therefore, the amount of the medicine stored in the shallow portion 281b is smaller than that of the evaporant holder 80 and the evaporant holder 180.

That is, by adjusting the size of the projections 181c and 281c of the evaporant holders 180 and 280, the amount of the drug stored in the shallow bottoms 181b and 281b can be adjusted. For this reason, when different amounts of medicines are sealed in advance in the evaporant holders 80, 180, 280 in accordance with the use period (for example, 30, 60, 90 days, etc.), the medicines are projected by the convex portions 181c, 281c. It is possible to prevent the drug from protruding toward the deep bottom portions 181a and 281a and biasing the drug toward the shallow bottom portions 181b and 281b. In other words, as shown in FIG. 10, in the state where the medicine is sealed in the lid 72, the liquid level of the medicine in each of the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 is substantially the same regardless of the difference in the amount of the medicine sealed in advance. Position.
When the user checks the medicine via the gas-permeable film in a state where the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 are not attached to the lid 72, the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 are used. Irrespective of the amount of the drug encapsulated in advance, it seems that almost the same amount of the drug is contained, so that the appearance of the evaporant holding member can be prevented from being impaired.

Next, another modified example of the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 13, the evaporant holding member 380 has a heat insulating member 384 having a predetermined temperature characteristic arranged on the back surface of the shallow bottom 381 b of the container 381.

  Incidentally, the above-mentioned evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 usually have an evaporative temperature characteristic set at 105 ° C. Therefore, the heat generating portion generates heat to a temperature corresponding to the transpiration temperature characteristic, thereby heating the transpirant holders 80, 180, and 280 to vaporize the medicine. However, when the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 are used in a conventional heating and evaporating apparatus having a heating unit having a temperature characteristic exceeding 105 ° C. and having a temperature characteristic set at, for example, 140 ° C. or 170 ° C. The temperature characteristics of the heating section are too high to be applicable. Therefore, there is a need for an evaporant holder that can be applied to a heating and evaporating apparatus manufactured as having a heat generating portion having different temperature characteristics.

  The evaporant holding member 380 has a heat generating portion 385 having a temperature characteristic set at 140 ° C. higher than, for example, 105 ° C., and is applied to the heating and evaporating device 170 having the same structure as the third embodiment shown in FIG. Is done. The heat insulating member 384 is formed in a plate shape by using a heat insulating material having a relatively small thickness. The heat insulating member 384 is integrated with the rear surface of the shallow bottom portion 381b of the container 381 by bonding with an adhesive or by being fixedly fixed to the container 381. Is fixed. The heat insulating member 384 is attached to the heating and evaporating device 170 in contact with the heat generating portion 385. When the heat generating portion 385 generates heat corresponding to 140 ° C., the heat absorbing member 384 absorbs the temperature and is attached to the shallow bottom portion 381b of the container 381. , Approximately 105 ° C. Therefore, the medicine in the evaporant holder 380 having an evaporation temperature characteristic of 105 ° C. performs predetermined evaporation by the heat of 105 ° C. transmitted through the heat insulating member 384. Even when the heat generating portion 385 has a temperature characteristic of, for example, 170 ° C., the heat insulating portion 384 is applied in accordance with the heat generating portion 385 by changing the heat insulating characteristic of the heat insulating member 384.

  In this manner, the evaporant holder 380 can be applied to the heating and evaporating device 170 having the heat generating portion 385 having a higher temperature characteristic than usual. Therefore, the versatility of the evaporant holder can be improved.

Next, another modified example of the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 14A, the evaporant holding body 480 has a heat insulating effect by forming the shallow bottom portion 481b of the container 481 in a corrugated plate shape instead of the heat insulating member 384 shown in FIG. It is.

As shown in FIG. 14B, the evaporant holding member 480 is attached to the heating and evaporating apparatus by bringing the shallow bottom portion 481 b of a corrugated plate into contact with the heating portion 485, so that the evaporating agent holder 480 is formed by A plurality of spaces M are arranged between them. Then, these spaces M have thermal insulation properties, and when the heat generating portion 485 generates heat corresponding to, for example, 140 ° C., the temperature is absorbed, and the heat of approximately 105 ° C. is added to the shallow bottom portion 481 b of the container 481. Is propagated. Therefore, the medicine in the evaporating agent holding body 480 having an evaporating temperature characteristic of 105 ° C. performs predetermined evaporating by the heat of 105 ° C. propagated through the space M. As described above, the heating method in which the evaporant holder 480 is heated by the space M and the portion where the bottom surface (that is, the lower surface) of the shallow bottom portion 481b is in linear contact with the upper surface of the heating portion 485 is adopted. Even when the temperature is 140 ° C. to 170 ° C., the evaporant holder 480 can be used. The space volume of the space M is about 0.1 cm ³ .

  In this manner, the evaporant holder 480 can be applied to a heating and evaporating apparatus having the heat generating portion 485 having a higher temperature characteristic than usual. Therefore, the versatility of the evaporant holder can be improved.

By the way, as shown in FIG. 15, the evaporant holding body 80 in the third embodiment of the above-mentioned heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention is placed on a heat radiating plate (that is, a heat generating portion) H which is horizontal to the floor surface. (Specifically, the evaporant holder 80 is inclined while the front edge of the side edge portion 83 on the side of the deep bottom portion 81a and the shallow bottom portion 81b is in linear contact with the upper surface of the heat sink H). Due to the inclined arrangement, a space M1 is generated between the bottom surface (ie, the lower surface) of the evaporant holder 80 and the upper surface of the heat sink H. By adopting a heating method in which the evaporant holder 80 is heated at the front and rear portions of the bottom surface by the linear contact with the heat sink H and the formation of the space M1, the temperature of the heat sink H is 140 ° C to 170 ° C. Even if it is, the use of the evaporant holder 80 is possible. In addition, it is preferable to arrange the evaporant holder so as to be inclined as described above, since the visibility of the remaining amount of the evaporant is excellent. The space volume of the space M1 is about 1.7 cm ³ .

Next, a fourth embodiment of the heating and evaporating apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the embodiments described below, the members and the like having the same configurations and operations as the members and the like already described are denoted by the same reference numerals or corresponding reference numerals in the drawings, and the description thereof will be simplified or omitted.
As shown in FIG. 16, in the heating and evaporating apparatus 270 of the present embodiment, a temperature adjustment circuit 586 for adjusting the heat generation temperature of the heat generation unit 585 is provided on a circuit board 587, and the temperature for changing the set temperature by the temperature adjustment circuit 586. A switch 588 is provided on the back 271b. The temperature adjustment circuit 586 and the heat generating portion 585 are electrically connected by a lead wire 589. In this case, the evaporant holder 80 shown in FIG. 11 is used.

  In the heat evaporation device 270 of the present embodiment, by operating the temperature switch 588 in, for example, a plurality of stages according to the evaporation temperature characteristics of the evaporant holder 80, it is possible to cope with a plurality of evaporation temperature characteristics. That is, for example, when the evaporant holding member 80 having an evaporation temperature characteristic of 105 ° C. is attached, the temperature switch 588 is set to 105 ° C. As a result, the heat generating portion 585 is heated to 105 ° C. by the temperature adjusting circuit 586, and the medicine in the evaporating agent holder 80 performs predetermined evaporation by the heat of the heat generating portion 585 at 105 ° C. Even if the evaporation temperature characteristic of the evaporant holder 80 is, for example, 140 ° C. or 170 ° C., by operating the temperature switch 588 in accordance with the temperature, the evaporation temperature characteristic can be adjusted. By heating the heat generating portion 585, the medicine in the evaporant holder 80 can evaporate.

  In this way, the heating and evaporating apparatus 270 having a single structure can be applied to the evaporating agent holder 80 having different evaporation temperature characteristics, so that the versatility of the heating and evaporating apparatus can be enhanced.

Next, a modified example of the heat generating portion and the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 17, the heat generating portion 685 has a concave portion 686 that can contact only the evaporant holding member 680 having a predetermined shape, and the evaporant holding member 680 includes only the heat generating portion 685 having the concave portion 686. Has a convex portion 687 which can be incorporated into the shallow bottom portion 681b.

  By the way, the above-mentioned evaporant holders 80, 180, 280 form a straight line so that the lower end surfaces of the shallow portions 81b, 181b, 281b form a rectangular base. Therefore, even if the evaporation temperature characteristics of the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 do not match the heat generation characteristics of the heat generating portion 85, the conventional evaporant holders formed in the same shape as the end surfaces thereof are incorrect. There is a risk of being incorporated. In this case, since the evaporation temperature characteristics of the evaporating agent holder and the heat generation characteristics of the heat generating portion do not match, a problem such as abnormal heat generation or heat generation failure may occur. Therefore, it is necessary to unify the shapes of the evaporating agent holder in order to make the evaporating temperature characteristics of the evaporating agent holder and the heat generation characteristics of the heat generating portion match.

  The concave portion 686 of the heat generating portion 685 is formed in a home base shape having a top portion 688 having a predetermined angle α at a central portion, and is disposed slightly below the surface of the heat generating portion 685.

  The convex portion 687 of the evaporant retainer 680 corresponds to the concave portion 686 of the heat generating portion 685, and is arranged on the shallow bottom portion 681b in a home base shape having a top portion 689 having a predetermined angle α at the center. I have.

  The concave portion 686 of the heat generating portion 685 and the convex portion 687 of the evaporant retainer 680 are in an even number relationship. For this reason, when the evaporant holding member 680 is assembled to the heat generating portion 685, the protrusion 687 matches the concave portion 686 and abuts each other, thereby detecting that the regular evaporant holding member 680 is incorporated. On the other hand, the evaporant holders 80, 180, and 280 having shallow bottoms 81b, 181b, and 281b whose lower end faces are linear so as to form a square base, and evaporant holders having different top angles. The concave portion 686 of the heat generating portion 685 cannot be incorporated into the body without being aligned, and erroneous incorporation can be promoted.

  In this manner, since only the regular-shaped evaporant holding member 680 can be incorporated, troubles such as abnormal heat generation and heat generation failure when improperly assembled are prevented, and the quality of the product can be maintained. it can.

Next, another modified example of the heat generating portion and the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 18, the heat generating portion 785 has a concave portion 786 having an inclined surface 787 on the side into which only the evaporant holding member 780 having a predetermined shape can be inserted. A shallow bottom portion 781b has a convex portion 788 having an inclined surface 789 on a side portion that can be incorporated only into the heat generating portion 785 having the 786.

  The concave portion 786 of the heat generating portion 785 and the convex portion 788 of the evaporant holding member 780 are in a pair-like relationship. Therefore, when the evaporant holding member 780 is assembled to the heat generating portion 785, the inclined surface 789 of the projection 788 matches the inclined surface 787 of the concave portion 786 and comes into contact with each other. Incorporation is detected. On the other hand, the concave portion 786 of the heat generating portion 785 cannot be incorporated into the evaporant holding member having a shallow bottom portion having an angle different from the inclined surface 789 or a right-angled side portion. It can encourage misincorporation.

  In this way, since only the regular-shaped evaporant holding member 780 can be incorporated, troubles such as abnormal heat generation and heat generation failure when erroneously assembled are prevented, and the quality of the product can be maintained. it can. The heat generating portion 785 and the evaporant holding member 780 may be provided with a concave portion 686 and a convex portion 687 as shown in FIG.

Next, another modified example of the evaporant holder will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 19, the evaporant retainer 880 has a notch 886 cut out in a U-shape substantially at the center of the side edge portion 883, and can be inserted into the notch 886 around the heat generating portion 885. The main body 781 has a projection 887.

  The notch 886 of the evaporant retainer 880 and the projection 887 of the container 781 are in a pair-like relationship. Therefore, when the evaporant holding member 880 is assembled to the heat generating portion 885, the notch 886 of the evaporant holding member 880 is inserted into the projection 887 of the container 781 and abuts on each other, so that a proper evaporant holding member is provided. It is detected that the body 880 has been incorporated. On the other hand, the projection 887 collides with the side edge portion and cannot be incorporated into the evaporant holding body having no notch formed therein, and erroneous incorporation can be promoted.

  In this way, since only the regular-shaped evaporant holding member 880 can be incorporated, troubles such as abnormal heat generation and heat generation failure when erroneously assembled are prevented, and the quality of the product can be maintained. it can. The heat generating portion 885 and the evaporant holding member 880 may be provided with a concave portion 686 and a convex portion 687 as shown in FIG. A concave portion 786 having an inclined surface 787 on the side and a convex portion 788 having an inclined surface 789 on the side may be provided.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and appropriate modifications and improvements can be made.
For example, a configuration may be employed in which the evaporant holding body is inserted into the body side instead of the inside of the lid, and a rib stopper or a guide for fixing the evaporant holding body may be provided in the body.
