       [0002]    This application also claims the benefit of Japanese Application No. 2003-124127 filed Apr. 28, 2003 and Japanese Application No. 2003-370437 on Oct. 30, 2003, the entireties of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
       FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    The present invention relates to a cling wrap case with a form where a cling wrap film stored within a case can be used by pulling out and cutting off to a required length as required. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0004]    Since this type of cling wrap case that has been conventionally known has construction in which a metal cutter is attached to a cardboard box (refer to Patent Reference 1, the cutter and the cardboard box are thrown away after separating them from each other, which is also troublesome (reference is made, for example, to Japanese Utility Model Publication Hei 07-38129). 
         [0005]    Further, the disposable cling wrap case is not preferable for restraining environmental pollution, highlighted as a problem in recent years; for lessening the waste of earth&#39;s resources and incineration fuel; and for diminishing the waste collecting cost of each household and local government. 
         [0006]    At present, while the environmental problems have been questioned, vinyl chloride has become a general social problem because of the generation of dioxin, so cling wrap made from vinyl chloride is about to be changed to a polyethylene cling wrap. 
         [0007]    However, in the case of trying to cut off the polyethylene cling wrap by a conventional cardboard box case cutter, since the polyethylene cling wrap is sticky compared vinyl chloride cling wrap, it is difficult to cut it off, and in the case of forcibly cutting it off, there is a possibility that it may inadvertently cause hand cuts. 
         [0008]    Further, when the polyethylene cling wrap is cut off, since the hand is generally rotated and turned toward the user, an end portion of the cut cling wrap film often clings together, so there are many cases in which users cannot smoothly use the cut cling wrap film. 
         [0009]    Further, with conventional cling wrap, in the case of pulling out or cutting off the cling wrap film, there is also the problem that fingers touch the cutter, which may easily cause finger cuts. 
         [0010]    The objective of the present invention is to resolve the various problems in the background technology. Specifically, the objective is to provide a new cling wrap case that is easily, assuredly and safely used, even for polyethylene cling wrap that is not disposable but which is repeatedly usable for many times; enabling savings of resources. 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0011]    In order to overcome these problems, the cling wrap case of the present invention is made from a synthetic resin; equipped with a storage case where a cylindrical cling wrap roll is stored, and a cover, which is rotatably attached to the storage case, and which can cover the storage case to be openable. Concurrently, it is provided with a cutter that can cut off a pulled-out cling wrap film; constructed such that the pulled-out cling wrap film can be cut off by the cutter member when stopping the storage case. 
         [0012]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, the cling wrap film of a cling wrap roll stored within the storage case becomes usable after pulling it out to a required length and then cutting it off by the cutter member attached to the cover. 
         [0013]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the storage case is formed to be a box-state whose upper portion is opened so as to be able to store the cylindrical cling wrap roll; and is constructed such that the cling wrap roll is rotatably supported inside, whereby the cling wrap film can be pulled forward relative to the widthwise direction of the storage case. Concurrently, the cover is secured to the widthwise rear end of the storage case; the cutter member is established at the end of the cover along the rotating direction; a cutter member housing, where the cutter member can be housed when covering the storage case with the cover, is formed at the widthwise front end of the storage case; and it is constructed such that when housing the cutter member in the cutter member housing, a cling wrap film, arranged on the cutter member housing, can be cut off. 
         [0014]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, every time the cling wrap film of the cling wrap roll, stored within the storage case, is pulled out to a required length, the cover is rotated toward the direction of covering the storage case, and housing the cutter member, attached to the cover, in the cutter member housing enables cutting-off the cling wrap film by the cutter member. 
         [0015]    The cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the cutter member housing is formed at the upper end of the wall at the widthwise front end side, which comprises the storage case, and the cutter member housing is comprised of a pair of the cutter member housing walls, formed to face each other, at a predetermined interval widthwise. 
         [0016]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, while the cling wrap film is placed on the cutter member housing walls, the cutter member is inserted between a pair of the front &amp; rear cutter member housing walls, cutting the cling wrap film. 
         [0017]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that cling wrap slip stoppers are established on the upper surface, the upper surface, the front side and the rear side of the rear cutter member housing wall from among a pair of the front &amp; rear cutter member housing walls. 
         [0018]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, when the cling wrap film is cut off by the cutter member, the cling wrap film is secured in a state with predetermined tension by making contact with the slip stoppers, established on the upper surface and the front side of the rear cutter member housing wall. 
         [0019]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that notches, for the purpose of inserting a user&#39;s fingers into the cutter member housing, are formed in a pair of the front and rear cutter member housing walls comprising the cutter member housing, respectively, construction being such that when pulling out the cling wrap film, fingers are inserted into the notches, and the end portion of the cling wrap film can be grasped. 
         [0020]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, after the cling wrap film is cut off, fingers are inserted into the notches, and a cling wrap film, to be cut for the next use, can be pulled out by grasping it with the fingers. 
         [0021]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that lock mechanisms, which can secure the state where the cover closes the storage case, are established at the lengthwise ends of the storage case and the cover. 
         [0022]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, if it is unnecessary to cut off a cling wrap film, the storage case is stopped by the cover, and the lock mechanisms can secure the stopped state. 
         [0023]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that cling wrap seizing members, which penetrate through the end walls and are detachable, respectively, are established, and when these are fitted, they are inserted into the tube of the cling wrap roll arranged within the storage case, and hold the cling wrap roll so as to be rotatable. Concurrently, when these are extracted from the end walls, they are released from the tube of the cling wrap roll, and the cling wrap roll becomes extractable from the storage case. 
         [0024]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, fitting or extracting the cling wrap seizing members enables holding or releasing the cling wrap rolls, respectively. 
         [0025]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the cutter member is formed to be elongated plate-state, and it is arranged along the lengthwise direction of the cover. 
         [0026]    In other words, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, the cutter member has a length sufficient for cutting off the entire widthwise cling wrap film at once. 
         [0027]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the cutter member is arranged at the end of the cover in the direction of rotation; a back board is established in the vicinity of the cutter member along the lengthwise direction; the cutting edge of the cutter member is formed to be lower than the end of the front wall, formed at the end of the cover along the rotating direction, and lower than the end of the back board; and it is constructed such that while the cover closes the storage case, the back board pushes the cling wrap film, placed on the cutter member housing walls, downward behind the rear cutter member housing wall. 
         [0028]    In other words, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, in the case that a finger is brought close to the cutter member, the finger makes contact with the end of the back board or the end of the front wall, which both protrude outward more than the cutting edge of the cutter member, making it is difficult to bring the finger into contact with the cutting edge. 
         [0029]    Further, when the cover is closed, the back board pushes the cling wrap film down, and tension force is applied to the cling wrap film. 
         [0030]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that stoppers, which can stop the rotation of the cover at a required angle so as not to be fully opened relative to the storage case, are established at positions where the cover and storage case are rotatably connected. 
         [0031]    In other words, with the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, when the cover is rotated toward a direction where the upper portion of the storage case is opened at a required angle, the stoppers obstruct the rotation more than the required angle, and it can prevent the cover from fully opening. 
         [0032]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that ribs, which have cling wrap abrading surfaces that are formed from a curved surface where the cylindrical cling wrap roll can be held to be turnable, respectively, are established. 
         [0033]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, the cling wrap abrading surfaces of the ribs contribute to an easy turn of the cling wrap roll. 
         [0034]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the storage case and the cover are made from an ABS resin. 
         [0035]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, since the cling wrap case is made from the ABS resin, in the case of using up the cling wrap film, the cling wrap case does not have to be disposed, but can be used again by replacing it with a new cling wrap roll. 
         [0036]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that a fastener means due to a magnetic force is established at the back side of the bottom of the storage case. 
         [0037]    In other words, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, when the cling wrap case is not used, it can be adhered onto a refrigerator, generally, by a fastener means utilizing a magnetic force. 
         [0038]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the cling wrap film is made from polyethylene, or polypropylene, or a composite structural material of polyethylene and polypropylene. Therefore, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, instead of a cling wrap film made from vinyl chloride, which has many problems as mentioned above, the cling wrap that is made from polyolefin, which has no problems if any, is used. 
         [0039]    Further, the cling wrap case of the present invention is characterized by the fact that the cutter member is toothed. Therefore, in the cling wrap case relating to the present invention, the cutter member is sharp. 
         [0040]    The cling wrap case of the present invention is made from a synthetic resin; and is equipped with a storage case where a cylindrical cling wrap roll is stored, and the cover which is rotatably attached to the storage case, can cover the storage case so as to be openable. Concurrently, which has the cutter member that can cut off a pulled-out cling wrap film; and, the cover is constructed such that when closing the storage case, a pulled-out cling wrap film can be cut off by the cutter member when the cover rotating. 
         [0041]    Therefore, in the case of cutting off the cling wrap film, it is unnecessary to rotate a hand as with the conventional cling wrap case, so the operation is easy. Further, if a hand is rotated as with the conventional cling wrap case, in the case of cutting off a cling wrap film, there is the defect that the cling wrap film may cling together. However, there is no such defect with the cling wrap case of the present invention. 
         [0042]    In the cling wrap case of the present invention, the storage case is formed to be box-state whose upper portion is open so as to be able to store the cylindrical cling wrap roll; and is constructed such that the cling wrap roll is rotatably supported inside, and the cling wrap film can be pulled forward relative to the widthwise direction of the storage case. Therefore, the cling wrap roll is easily stored within the storage case, and the cling wrap film can be easily pulled out forward from the storage case. 
         [0043]    Further, the cover is secured to the widthwise rear end of the storage case; the cutter member is established at the end of the cover along the direction of rotation; the cutter member housing, where the cutter member can be housed when covering the storage case with the cover, is formed at the widthwise front end of the storage case; and is constructed such that when housing the cutter member in the cutter member housing, the cling wrap film arranged on the cutter member housing, can be cut off. Therefore, rotating the cover and housing the cutter member attached to the cover, in the cutter member housing enable cutting of the cling wrap film, so operation is easy and safe, and the cling wrap film can be assuredly cut off. 
         [0044]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, the cutter member housing is formed at the upper end of the wall at the widthwise front end side, which comprises the storage case, and the cutter member housing is comprised of a pair of the cutter member housing walls, formed to face each other, at pre-determined intervals widthwise, and while the cling wrap film is placed on the cutter member housing walls, the cutter member is inserted between a pair of the front and rear cutter member housing walls and the cling wrap film is cut off. Therefore, the cling wrap film to be cut off by the cutter member is placed between the upper surface of a pair of the cutter member housing walls with a tension force, so the cutting of the cling wrap film by the cutter member is easy and sure. 
         [0045]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, cling wrap slip stoppers are established on the upper surface, the front side and the rear side of the rear cutter member housing wall out of a pair of the front and rear cutter member housing walls, and when the cling wrap film is cut off by the cutter member, the cling wrap film is secured in the state with a predetermined tension by making contact with the slip stoppers, established on the upper surface and the front side of the rear cutter member housing wall. Therefore, the cling wrap film maintains the tension state and the cutting-off by the cutter member is easy. Further, even after the cling wrap film has been cut off, since the end of the cling wrap film to be pulled out for next use is held at the slip stoppers, it is easy to pull it out. 
         [0046]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, notches for the purpose of inserting a user&#39;s fingers into the cutter member housing are formed in a pair of the front and rear cutter member housing walls comprising the cutter member housing, respectively, and when pulling out the cling wrap film, fingers are inserted into the notches, and the end portion of the cling wrap film can be grasped, so after the cling wrap film is cut off, fingers are inserted into the notches, and a cling wrap film, which will be cut for the next usage, can be pulled out by grasping with the fingers, making it user-friendly. 
         [0047]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the lock mechanisms, which can secure the state where the cover closes the storage case, are established at the lengthwise ends of the storage case and the cover, if it is unnecessary to cut off a cling wrap film, the storage case is closed by the cover, and the lock mechanisms can secure the closed state, preventing the cover from easily opening and preventing the stored cling wrap roll from slipping out, and preventing the cling wrap from becoming dirty. 
         [0048]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, the cling wrap seizing members, which penetrate through the end walls and which are detachable, respectively, are established, and when these are fitted, they are inserted into the tube of the cling wrap roll, arranged within the storage case, and rotatably hold the cling wrap roll. Concurrently, when these are extracted from the end walls, they are released from the tube of the cling wrap roll, and the cling wrap becomes extractable from the storage case. Therefore, fitting or releasing the cling wrap seizing members enables holding or extracting of the cling wrap roll, respectively, so the cling wrap roll can be easily and promptly replaced. 
         [0049]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the cutter member is formed to be an elongated plate-state and is arranged along the lengthwise direction of the cover, the entire widthwise cling wrap film can be cut off at once, making it is easy to cut off the cling wrap film. 
         [0050]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, the cutter member is arranged at the end of the cover along the rotating direction; a back board is established in the vicinity of the cutter member along its lengthwise direction; the cutting edge of the cutter member is formed to be lower than the end of the front wall, formed at the end of the cover along the rotating direction, and lower than the end of the back board; and is constructed such that while the cover closes the storage case, the back board pushes the cling wrap film, which is placed on the cutter member housing walls, downward behind the rear side cutter member housing wall. Therefore, if a finger is brought close to the cutter member, the fingers make contact with the end of the back board or the end of the front wall, which both protrude outward more than the cutting edge of the cutter member, and it is difficult to bring the fingers into contact with the cutting edge, so it is difficult to become injured. 
         [0051]    Further, when the cover is closed, the back board pushes the cling wrap film down, and tension force is applied to the cling wrap film, making it easy to cut off the cling wrap film with the cutter member. 
         [0052]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the stoppers, which can stop the rotation of the cover at a required angle so as not to be fully open relative to the storage case, are established at the positions where the cover and storage case are connected so as to be rotatable, when the cover is rotated in a direction where the upper portion of the storage case is opened at a required angle, the stoppers obstruct the rotation more than the required angle, preventing the cover from fully opening. In the case of performing the cutting operation of the cling wrap film when holding it by hand, it is easy for a user with small hands to hold it, and the cutting operation is easy. 
         [0053]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since ribs which have cling wrap abrading surfaces that are formed from a curved surface where the cylindrical cling wrap roll can be rotatably held, are respectively established, the cling wrap abrading surfaces of the ribs contribute to an easily turning the cling wrap roll, and the cling wrap film can be smoothly pulled out. 
         [0054]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the storage case and the cover are made from ABS resin, when using up the cling wrap film, the cling wrap case need not be disposed but can be used again by replacing it with a new cling wrap roll. Therefore, the present invention can contribute to the effective utilization of resources. Further, since they are made from the ABS resin, dirt/stain that adhering on the surface can be easily removed, and the tidiness can be maintained. Further, design printing can be easily performed. 
         [0055]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the fastener means is magnetically established at the back surface side of the bottom of the storage case, when it is not used, it can be magnetically adhered onto a refrigerator, making storage convenient. 
         [0056]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the cling wrap film is made from polyethylene, or polypropylene, or a composite structural material of polyethylene and polypropylene, when incinerated, it does not generate any harmful substance such as dioxin, as does vinyl chloride cling wrap film, preventing environmental pollution. 
         [0057]    Further, in the cling wrap case of the present invention, since the cutter member is toothed, the cutter member is sharp, and the cling wrap film can be smoothly cut off, and the cut end is also fine.

         [0081]    First, the cling wrap case  1  relating to the present invention, as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , is constructed by establishing the storage case  2  and the cover  3 , and both the storage case  2  and cover  3  are molded from a synthetic resin, specifically, from the ABS resin. 
         [0082]    The storage case  2 , as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , stores the cylindrically-formed cling wrap roll  4  and holds it. Concurrently, it is formed to be horizontally long box-like whose upper portion is opened, so as to be able to pull out the cling wrap film  5 . 
         [0083]    Furthermore, the cling wrap roll  4 , as shown in  FIG. 2  and  FIG. 4 , is constructed by wrapping the cling wrap film  5  around the external circumference of the tube  6 , formed to be cylindrical from cardboard. Then, the cling wrap film  5  is formed from polyethylene, or polypropylene or a composite material of polyethylene and polypropylene. The conventional vinyl chloride cling wrap film generates a toxic substance, such as dioxin, in the case of incineration. However, this cling wrap film  5 , formed from polyethylene generally, does not generate any toxic substance even when it is incinerated, preventing environmental pollution. 
         [0084]    The cling wrap roll  4  that is stored within the storage case  2 , as shown in  FIG. 1 ,  FIG. 5  and  FIG. 6 , is held by seizing with cling wrap seizing members  7  so as not to slip out. The cling wrap seizing members  7  are attached to the end walls  8 , formed at both lengthwise ends of the storage case  2 . 
         [0085]    The cling wrap seizing members  7 , as shown in  FIG. 1 ,  FIG. 5  and  FIG. 6 , have disc-state heads  9  and cylinders  10 , which project inward from the heads  9 , respectively, the cylinders  10  being formed so as to be easily elastically deformed, and seizing parts  12  are established on the external surfaces of the end of the cylinders  10 , respectively. 
         [0086]    In the cling wrap seizing members  7 , as shown in  FIG. 1 ,  FIG. 5  and  FIG. 6 , the heads  9  are arranged at the external surface sides of the end walls  8 , formed at both lengthwise ends of the storage case  2 , and the cylinders  10  are fitted in a state which penetrates through holes  13 , formed in the end walls  8 , respectively. 
         [0087]    Construction is such that the cylinders  10  of the cling wrap seizing member  7  are movable inward and outward relative to the holes  13 , respectively. When these are moved outward, the seizing parts  12  seize at the edge of the holes  13  at the internal surface sides of the end walls  8 , preventing the cylinders  10  from slipping out, and if the cylinders  10  are reduced toward the radical direction, the seizure by the seizing parts  12  is disengaged, and the seizing parts  12  become passable through the holes  13 , and the cling wrap seizing members  7  become removable from the end walls  8 , respectively. 
         [0088]    When the cling wrap roll  4  is stored within the storage case  2 ; the cling wrap seizing members  7  are fitted to the end walls  8 , respectively; and when the cylinders  10  are moved inward, the cylinders  10  are inserted into the inside of the tube  6  of the cling wrap roll  4 , and the cling wrap roll  4  is held so as not to be released from the storage case  2 . 
         [0089]    Conversely, if the cylinders  10  are extracted from the end walls  8 , the cling wrap roll  4  becomes free and extractable from the storage case  2 . Furthermore, the dimension has been established so as to be able to extract the cling wrap roll  4  even if the cylinders  10  are moved outward and these become in the state where the seizing parts  12  are still seized at the edges of the holes  13  at the internal surface side of the end walls  8 , respectively. 
         [0090]    In the case of pulling out the cling wrap film  5  of the cling wrap roll  4 , which is stored within the storage case  2 , the cling wrap roll  4  turns. Therefore, if the cling wrap roll  4  does not smoothly turn, it obstructs the pulling-out of the cling wrap film  5 . Then, the ribs  14  for the purpose of easily turning the cling wrap roll  4  are formed widthwise at multiple lengthwise places on the bottom surface of the storage case  2 . 
         [0091]    The ribs  14  have the cling wrap abrading surfaces  15 , which can support the cylinder cling wrap roll  4  to allow to the roll to be turnable and are formed from a curved surface, respectively. 
         [0092]    Furthermore, the ribs  14  can be formed such that the height dimension of the widthwise rear side of the storage case  2  shall be greater than that of the widthwise front side. In this case, the cling wrap roll  4  are arranged in a state where they always protrude forward due to the difference of the height of the ribs within the storage case  2 , so any rewind will never occur backward along the widthwise direction of the storage case  2 , and the pulling-out of the cling wrap film  5  becomes easier for next use. 
         [0093]    As shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , a jaw plate  17 , which protrudes forward, is established at the widthwise front end of the storage case  2 , in other words, at the upper end of the front wall  16  in the storage case  2 , and the cutter member housing  18  is established on the jaw plate  17 . 
         [0094]    The cutter member housing  18 , as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , is comprised of a pair of the front &amp; rear cutter member housing walls  19  and  20  that are vertically arranged in parallel. These cutter member housing walls  19  and  20  are formed along the lengthwise direction at the upper surface side of the jaw plate  17 , and the notches  21  and  22  with a width where fingers can be inserted, as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , are formed in the lengthwise center, respectively. 
         [0095]    Therefore, the insertion of fingers into the notches  21  and  22  enables easy pulling-out of the cling wrap film  5  of the cling wrap roll  4 , which is stored within the storage case  2 , by grasping with fingers. 
         [0096]    The cling wrap slip stoppers  23 , as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , are established on the upper surface, the front side and the rear side of the cutter member housing wall  20 , which is positioned behind widthwise in the cutter member housing  18 . 
         [0097]    The cling wrap slip stoppers  23  are formed by adhering a sheet-state material, in the present embodiments. The cling wrap slip stoppers  23  that are formed to be sheet-state have a structure where an elastic ABS resin, which demonstrates an extremely high non-slip property even with a minute load, is laminated onto a synthetic rubber padding containing a carbon ceramic. 
         [0098]    Furthermore, the cling wrap slip stoppers  23  can also be established by applying an adhesive capacity substance. 
         [0099]    Further, a plastic plate containing a powder magnet  26 , as shown in  FIG. 2  and  FIG. 4 , is adhered onto the back surface side of the bottom plate  24  of the storage case  2  as the fastener means  25  utilizing a magnetic force. Therefore, in the case of not using this cling wrap case  1 , it can be stored by adhering onto a refrigerator, generally. 
         [0100]    Further, the cover  3 , as shown in  FIG. 1  through  FIG. 4 , is formed to be horizontally long box-state so as to be able to cover the upper portion of the storage case  2 , and its widthwise rear end is rotatably connected to the widthwise rear end of the storage case  2 . In other words, hinges  29  and  30  are formed at the upper end of the rear wall  27  in the storage case  2 , and at the lower end of the rear wall  28  of the cover  3  along the lengthwise direction, respectively, and the insertion of a central rotation axis  31  into these hinges  29  and  30  results in the rotatable connection of the cover  3  and the storage case  2 . 
         [0101]    In other words, it is constructed such that rotating of the cover  3  forward, as shown in  FIG. 3  and  FIG. 4 , results in covering &amp; closing the upper portion of the storage case  2 . Conversely, rotating backward results in opening the upper portion of the storage case  2 . 
         [0102]    The stoppers  32  and  33 , which can stop the rotating at approximately 135° from the close state, are established, as shown in  FIG. 8  and  FIG. 9 , at the positions where the cover  3  and the storage case  2  are rotatably connected, so as not to fully open the cover  3  relative to the storage case  2 . Furthermore, the configuration and the structure of these stoppers  32  and  33  are various, and are not be limited to that which is illustrated. 
         [0103]    Further, as shown in  FIG. 1  through  FIG. 4 , the cutter member  34  is established at the end of the cover  3  along the rotating direction, in other words, at the widthwise front end. This cutter member  34  is formed by establishing a serration  36  along the one side edge of a narrow metal plate  35 , and the serration  36  is toothed. 
         [0104]    The cutter member  34 , as shown in  FIG. 1 , is arranged lengthwise, slightly behind the front wall  37  in the cover  3 , and its anchor extremity is fixed to the cover  3 . 
         [0105]    As shown in  FIG. 3  and  FIG. 4 , when the cover  3  is rotated forward and it covers and closes over the storage case  2 , the cutter member  34  is arranged so as to be inserted into the cutter member housing  18  from the upper portion, and so as to be positioned between a pair of the cutter member housing walls  19  and  20 . 
         [0106]    The back board  38  is established in the lengthwise direction of the cutter member  34 , as shown in  FIG. 1  through  FIG. 4 , at the front end of the cover  3  and slightly behind the cutter member  34 . 
         [0107]    The end of the back board  38  is formed so as to be protruded outward more than the cutting edge of the cutter member  34 . Further, the end of the front wall  37  in the cover  3  is also formed so as to be protruded outward more than the cutting edge of the cutter member  34 . In other words, the cutting edge of the cutter member  34  is formed to be lower than the end of the back board  38  and the end of the front wall  37 . 
         [0108]    Therefore, in the case that a finger is brought close to the cutting edge of the cutter member  34  while the cover  3  is opened, the finger makes contact with the end of the back board  38  or the end of the front wall  37 , and any contact of the cutting edge of the cutter member  34  by the finger can be prevented. This enables the prevention of finger cuts by touching the cutting edge, and the safety can be enhanced. 
         [0109]    Further, the back board  38 , as shown in  FIG. 4 , has a function to push down the cling wrap film  5 , placed on the cutter member housing walls  19  and  20 , from top to bottom behind the rear side of the cutter member housing wall  20  when the cover  3  is rotated forward and covers and closes over the storage case  2 , enabling the application of a tension force to the cling wrap film  5 . 
         [0110]    As shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 7 , the lock mechanisms  39 , for the purpose of securing the state where the cover  3  is rotated forward and it covers and closes over the storage case  2 , are established. 
         [0111]    The lock mechanisms, as shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 7 , are comprised of lock pieces  40  and seizing grooves  41 , respectively. For the lock pieces  40 , their ends are established so as to protrude from the end walls  42 , which are at both lengthwise ends of the cover  3 , respectively, and the seizing grooves  41  are formed on the internal surfaces of the end walls  8 , which are at both lengthwise ends of the storage case  2 , respectively. 
         [0112]    While the cover  3  is rotated forward and covers &amp; closes over the storage case  2 , it is constructed such that the engagements of end hooks  43  of the lock pieces  40  with the seizing grooves  41  result in the locked state, respectively. 
         [0113]    A knob  44  is established at the widthwise front end on the external surface of the cover  3 , as shown in  FIG. 3 , for the purpose of easily opening the cover  3  by grasping with fingers. 
         [0114]    The cling wrap case  1  relating to the present invention is used as follows: 
         [0115]    As shown in  FIG. 1  and  FIG. 2 , the cover  3  is rotated backward and it results in the opening of the upper portion of the storage case  2 , and while the cling wrap seizing members  7  are extracted from the end walls  8  of the storage case  2 , respectively, or the cling wrap seizing members  7  are moved outward, the cylindrical cling wrap roll  4  is stored inside the empty storage case  2 . 
         [0116]    In this case, while the cover  3  is opened, the cover  3  is secured so as not to be fully opened by the stoppers  32  and  33 , so even a user with small hands can easily hold the cling wrap case  1 , and it is also easily operable. 
         [0117]    Further, as mentioned above, while the cover  3  is opened, when a hand is brought close to the cutter member  34 , which is attached to the cover  3 , the hand touches the end of the back board  38  or the end of the front wall  37 , so touching the cutter member  34  by hand is prevented. Therefore, it prevents hurting the hand. 
         [0118]    Next, the fitting of the cling wrap seizing members  7  to the end walls  8 , respectively, or the movement of the cling wrap seizing members  7  inward results in the insertion the cylinders  10  of the cling wrap seizing members  7  into the inside of the tube  6  of the cling wrap roll  4 , respectively. This results in the completion to load the cling wrap roll  4  into the storage case  2 , and the cling wrap roll  4  is held within the storage case  2  so as not to be releasable. 
         [0119]    In the case of using the cling wrap film  5  by cutting to a required length, as shown in  FIG. 2 , the required length of the cling wrap film  5  is pulled out from the cling wrap roll  4 , and the portion of the cling wrap film  5  to be cut is placed on a pair of the front and rear above-mentioned cutter member housing walls  19  and  20 , which comprise the cutter member housing  18 . At this time, the cling wrap film  5  makes contact with the cling wrap slip stoppers  23  and is secured. 
         [0120]    Next, the cover  3  is rotated forward, and as shown in  FIG. 3  and  FIG. 4 , it covers and stops over the case  2 . When this operation is performed, while the back board  38  pushes the cling wrap film  5  downward behind the rear side of the rear cutter member housing wall  20  and a tension force is applied, the cutter member  34  is inserted in between a pair of the front and rear cutter member housing walls  19  and  20 , which comprise the cutter member housing  18 , and the cling wrap film  5  is cut off. 
         [0121]    In this case, the cut edge of the cling wrap film  5  makes contact with the cling wrap slip stoppers  23 , arranged on the upper surface, the front side and the rear side of the rear cutter member housing wall  20 , and it is secured, so the cling wrap roll  4  will never be rewound. 
         [0122]    In addition, in the case of using the cling wrap film  5  by cutting to a required length, the cover  3  is opened and the cut edge of the cling wrap film  5 , which makes contact with the cling wrap slip stoppers  23  that are arranged on the upper surface, the front side and the rear side of the cutter member housing wall  20  and is secured, is pulled out by grasping with fingers, and, it that case, the insertion of fingers into the notches  21  and  22 , which are formed in the cutter member housing walls  19  and  20 , respectively, enables the easy grasp and pulling out. 
         [0123]    In the case that the cling wrap film  5  is used up and the cling wrap roll  4  is replaced with a new one, while the cling wrap seizing members  7  are extracted from the edge walls  8  of the storage case  2 , or while the cling wrap seizing members  7  are moved outward, the cling wrap roll  4  can be easily replaced. 
         [0124]    In the case of not using the cling wrap case  1 , it is stored in the state where the cover  3  is closed. In this case, since the closed state of the cover  3  is secured by the lock mechanisms  39  and they can prevent the cover  3  from easily opening, they prevent the cling wrap roll  4  from slipping off or becoming dirty. 
         [0125]    In the case of storage, the cling wrap case  1  can be stored by adhering onto frequently-used equipment, such as a refrigerator, using the fastening means  25  where a magnetic force is utilized, attached at the back surface side of the bottom  24  of the storage case  2 . 
         [0126]    As explained above, the present invention can be adopted for a cling wrap case where a polyethylene cling wrap can be easily, assuredly and safely cut off. Concurrently, it can be adopted to a cling wrap case that is used by storing a cling wrap film within a case.
