Patent number: 6889826Abstract: The present invention provides a container including a housing with an opening and a wall. The wall includes an inner case 2 fitting into an outer case 1 while leaving a given distance therebetween to form first and second chambers. The first chamber 3 is located around the periphery of the opening of the housing. Further, a capsule 4 is housed in the first chamber 3. First and second substances capable of chemiluminescence upon reaction with one another are contained in the capsule 4 and in the second chamber 6, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2002Date of Patent: May 10, 2005Assignee: Lumica CorporationInventors: Shiro Harada, Masahiko Fujita, Toshifumi Shinohara

Publication number: 20040238803Abstract: The present invention provides a chemiluminescent composition including an oxalate and a fluorescent material wherein the chemiluminescent composition is mixed with a composition including hydrogen peroxide to induce chemiluminescence. The chemiluminescent composition comprises a solvent for the oxalate and the fluorescent material, which includes an acetyl citrate ester or an organic solvent containing an acetyl citrate ester. As an alternative to dibutyl phthalate which is suspected to be one of endocrine disrupting chemicals, the solvent of the present invention can assure safety to human body while maintaining excellent storage stability and luminescent performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2004Publication date: December 2, 2004Applicant: LUMICA CORPORATIONInventor: Tetsuro Yamate

Patent number: 6776495Abstract: The chemiluminescent device has a luminous body capable of generating light through a chemiluminescent reaction, and an outer layer for covering the luminous body. The outer layer is made of closed-cell plastic foam having a forming ratio in the range of 3 to 50%, preferably in the range of 20 to 30%. Closed-cell foamed polyethylene having no adverse environmental effect may be advantageously used as the closed-cell plastic foam. The chemiluminescent device having the outer layer made of closed-cell plastic foam provides increased luminous area, unsusceptibility to ambient temperature, and enhanced softness and shock-absorbability to achieve satisfactory luminescent effect, safety and reliability. The outer layer may have an outer surface formed with an irregularity to provide further enhanced luminescent effect.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2002Date of Patent: August 17, 2004Assignee: Lumica CorporationInventor: Jun Nomiyama
