Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a container such as a glass container, and more particularly to a container having a magnetic field effect.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, various effects of magnetic field action have been recognized on plants and animals, and it has been confirmed that, for example, magnetically magnetized water promotes plant growth. In terms of medical treatment, permanent magnets are used to treat stiff shoulders and muscle pain.

It is also known that such a magnetic field is not always required to be strong.

By the way, animals and plants which are presently under the earth's magnetic field are inevitably affected by the earth's magnetic field, and the animals and plants are adapted to the earth's magnetic field and stabilized.

[0005]

However, the earth's magnetic field (0.3 gauss) is small in a building or the like where a large amount of steel frames are used, so that the flora and fauna of the plant are not a little out of balance.

An object of the invention relating to the present application is to provide a container capable of reproducing a natural environment close to the earth's magnetic field in a container such as a glass container.

[0007]

The structure for realizing the object of the invention according to the present application is a container having a printing surface formed on the outer peripheral surface of a container body, wherein the printing surface is magnetized with a magnetic field equal to or higher than the earth's magnetic field. It is in a glass container characterized in that.

In the construction of this container, the printing surface is formed of a ceramic color containing magnetic powder.

In these structures, the magnetic substance is barium-ferrite type or strontium-ferrite type.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

 (First Embodiment) FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment.

In this embodiment, magnetic portions 2 of thin magnetic layers are formed on the outer peripheral surface of a glass cup 1 in a scattered manner. In this embodiment, the magnetic part 2 is formed thin by applying a printing method of screen-printing a glass container.

Among fluxes (glass powders), pigments, and waxes, which are the main components of general ceramic colors, paints were used in which the pigment was changed to barium-ferrite magnetic substance powder (average particle size 1 μ). The mixing ratio of this paint is flux:
Magnetic powder: wax = 9: 1: 1.2 (hereinafter referred to as paint A) and flux: magnetic powder: wax = 8:
2: 1.2 (hereinafter referred to as paint B) was prepared. Using these paints A and B, by a conventional screen printing method, a screen of 200 mesh was used to screen-print each of the magnetic parts 2 on the outer surface of the glass cup.
And was baked at a maximum temperature of 610 degrees Celsius. The printed film thickness after baking was both about 10 μm.

Then, this was magnetized by a magnetizing device under the condition of 20,000 Oersted. Its magnetic field (magnetic flux density)
Was 0.8 Gauss near the ferrite.

The directions of the magnetic poles of the magnetic portion 2 and the lines of magnetic force will be described below.

The ferromagnet is composed of a large number of magnetic domains inside, and the magnet applies magnetic fields from the outside to the ferromagnet so that the directions of the respective magnetic domains are aligned. It becomes a form that sucks each other.

The pole of the magnetic domain which hits the end of the magnet is called a free magnetic pole because there is no opponent for attraction, and it is only with this free magnetic pole that a magnetic force can be exerted to the outside.

Here, the magnetic portion 2 formed by printing can also be called a flat magnet, and since the flat magnet has a large end surface area of the magnet and the distance between the magnetic poles is shorter than that, it should originally be a free magnetic pole. When screen-printed on glass where magnetic domains are difficult to align, the thickness of the magnetic material is only about 10 μ, and when magnetized in the thickness direction, it is relative only from the end face of the contour of printing, that is, the contour of the magnetic part. Strong magnetic field lines will be emitted. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the magnetic portion 2 that can be regarded as a flat magnet is formed on the surface of the glass cup G, but the magnetic poles in this magnetic portion 2 are polarized in the thickness direction, and thus the magnetic force lines H are the magnetic lines of the glass of the glass cup G. Is ejected inward and outward from the end surface of the magnetic portion 2, that is, the peripheral end surface of the dot-shaped printed pattern, inward and outward of the glass, and efficiently magnetizes the water in the glass cup. You will be able to give. For this reason, it is desirable that a large number of dot-shaped magnetic portions exist in the present embodiment, and for that purpose, it is preferable to make the pattern small to some extent.

Contrary to this, when the entire surface of the glass is printed and a permanent magnet is provided, magnetic force lines are formed in the direction along the outer peripheral surface of the glass, so that the water inside the cup is strongly magnetized. It is not possible. This applies not only to the water in the cup, but also to the hand holding the cup,
In the case of the present invention, the magnetic lines of force are emitted inside and outside the cup, so that the hand holding the cup can be given an appropriate magnetizing action.

On the other hand, in a building with a steel frame structure, the first
Of Example 1, the glass cup of Example 1 baked with the A paint, the glass cup of Example 2 baked with the B paint, and a glass cup without the magnetic part 2 formed as a comparative example. Each of the above-mentioned drinks was filled with commercially available mineral water, and compared with each other. It was evaluated that the water in the glass cups of Example 1 and Example 2 was felt to be more delicious than the water in the cups of Comparative Example. There were 8 out of 11 people.

According to this embodiment, natural spring water exists in the earth's magnetism, and it is considered that the physical regeneration of the natural spring water in the cup helps to bring out a delicious sensation.

(Second Embodiment) FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment.

In this embodiment, the shape of the magnetic portion 3 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the glass cup 1 by screen printing is
It has a vertically long strip shape. Since the magnetic portion 3 has a long circumference, it has an effect of increasing the amount of magnetic force lines emitted in the inner and outer directions of the cup, as in the first embodiment.

In the above-mentioned corner embodiment, the glass cup is used as the container, but a container such as a ceramic may be used.

According to each of the above-described embodiments, the magnet is formed around the cup by the printing method, and the magnetic field is applied to the contents of the cup and the hand holding the cup without being aware of the existence of the magnet. I can do things.

When the cup is shaken to move the liquid inside, the magnetic field lines are cut and the ions in the liquid move, so that the Rayrentz force acts on the ions and conditions similar to the generation of magnetized water are given. it can.

In order for biological systems including humans to function normally, it is necessary that external environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, air composition, and ultraviolet intensity are within a certain range. It has been pointed out that the environmental magnetic field has been weakened by people in recent years who often live in buildings. Therefore, by using the cup of the present embodiment, there is an effect that the natural magnetic field can be partially restored at the time of rehydration, and the beverage can be tasted more deliciously.

[0027]

According to the present invention, magnetized water and the like can be easily obtained in a container such as a glass cup and the magnetic portion is formed by a printing method, so that the magnetic force lines reach deep inside the container. It is possible to obtain a magnetic field as small as the earth's magnetic field.
