Sensor storage container

Abstract

A sensor storage container includes: a lid configured to cover in an openable and closable manner an opening of an open-topped main body case that stores an elongated plate-like sensor lying flat; and a sensor ejecting tool configured to take the sensor out of the main body case. The sensor ejecting tool is elongated, and includes two ends, one end being linked to one of end sides of an opening portion of the main body case, and the other end being rotatable in a vertical direction between a bottom portion of the main body case and a position above the opening portion. A sensor adhesive portion at the other end of the sensor ejecting tool is provided with an adhesive face on a side of the sensor adhesive portion facing a bottom face of the main body case.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A sensor ejecting tool, comprising:
 an ejecting tool main body having an elongated shape and having a first end a second end;   a non-adhesive portion provided at a first end of the ejecting tool main body; and   a tab portion provided at a second end of the ejection tool main body;   an adhesive portion provided on the ejecting tool main body at a portion that is closer to the tab portion than the non-adhesive portion.   
     
     
         2 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the ejecting tool main body has an elongated plate-like shape.   
     
     
         3 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 ,
 further comprising a bent portion provided at a predetermined distance away from the second end and causing the second end to incline towards the first end of the ejecting tool main body,   wherein the tab portion is a portion from the bent portion to the side of the second end of the ejecting tool main body; and   the adhesive portion is provided on the ejecting tool main body facing a direction in which the tab portion is inclined.   
     
     
         4 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the ejecting tool main body is substantially composed of an elastic material.   
     
     
         5 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein a width of the non-adhesive portion is smaller than a length the non-adhesive portion, the length of the non-adhesive portion lying in a longitudinal direction of the ejecting tool main body and the width of the non-adhesive portion lying in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the ejecting tool main body.   
     
     
         6 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 5 ,
 wherein a width of the adhesive portion is larger than the width of the non-adhesive portion.   
     
     
         7 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 5 ,
 wherein a width of the tab portion is larger than the width of the adhesive portion.   
     
     
         8 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the ejecting tool main body has a bar shape.   
     
     
         9 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 8 ,
 wherein the ejecting tool main body has a circular cross-section or an elliptical cross-section.   
     
     
         10 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 8 ,
 further comprising a bent portion provided at a predetermined distance away from the second end and causing the second end to incline towards the first end of the ejecting tool main body,   wherein the tab portion is a portion from the bent portion to the second end of the ejecting tool main body; and   the adhesive portion is provided on the ejecting tool main body facing a direction in which the tab portion is inclined.   
     
     
         11 . The sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 10 ,
 wherein the ejecting tool main body is substantially composed of an elastic material.   
     
     
         12 . A sensor storage container that stores the sensor ejecting tool according to  claim 1 , comprising;
 a cylindrical container having an opening portion at a top of the cylindrical container; and   a lid member provided at the opening portion of the cylindrical container.   
     
     
         13 . The sensor storage container according to  claim 12 ,
 further comprising a bent portion provided at a predetermined distance away from the second end and causing the second end to incline towards the first end of the ejecting tool main body, and   wherein a height of the cylindrical container is longer than a distance from the first end to the bent portion of the sensor ejecting tool.   
     
     
         14 . The sensor storage container according to  claim 12 ,
 wherein the cylindrical container is able to store an elongated plate-like sensor.
