Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a beverage container capable of containing a beverage therein.
Background
Patent document 1 discloses a beverage container having a drinking-side straw. The beverage container disclosed in patent document 1 is used as a beverage container such as a drinking cup used when an infant or the like drinks a beverage, and has an advantage that the infant or the like can practice drinking a beverage contained in the container using a drinking-side straw. Therefore, many parents use beverage containers with straw.
The beverage container described in patent document 1 includes: a container body for containing a beverage; a base portion attached to the container body so as to cover the opening of the container body; a beverage outlet portion for discharging the beverage in the container main body; and a cover portion slidably movable along an upper surface of the base portion. The user can expose the mouthpiece-side straw by slidably moving the cover along the upper surface of the base to open the upper surface of the base. On the other hand, the user can dispose the mouthpiece-side straw between the base and the cover by slidably moving the cover along the upper surface of the base to bring the cover into a state in which the cover covers the base (closed state). In addition, in a state (closed state) in which the cover portion covers the base portion, the spout-side straw is bent to close the flow path of the spout-side straw, thereby preventing the beverage contained in the container body from leaking through the spout-side straw.
In order to improve the convenience of drinking the beverage in the container main body, it is preferable to provide a long spout-side straw. That is, if the long mouthpiece-side straw is provided, the tip portion of the long mouthpiece-side straw can be disposed at a more appropriate position on the infant side with the base portion in the open state. Therefore, the infant or the like can easily hold the tip of the long drinking-side straw, and can easily drink the beverage in the container main body.
On the other hand, if the mouthpiece-side straw is too long, the mouthpiece-side straw may protrude beyond the space between the base and the cover when the cover covers the base. Thus, the cover may not cover the base, and the base may not be set in a normally closed state. In other words, the mouthpiece-side straw may not be accommodated in the space between the base and the cover.
In addition, it is also a method of forcibly bending the mouthpiece-side straw to be accommodated in the space between the base and the cover. However, in this way, the flow path of the drinking-side straw can be more reliably closed to suppress the leakage of the beverage, while an excessive load is applied to the drinking-side straw. In this case, when the cover is moved relative to the base to expose the mouthpiece-side straw, the mouthpiece-side straw is significantly deformed, and the mouthpiece-side straw may be maintained in a deformed state and may not return to its original shape.

Problems to be solved by the invention
The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a beverage container that can reliably accommodate a long straw spout that is most suitable for infants and young children, and can close a flow path of the straw spout to suppress leakage of a beverage, and can suppress significant deformation of the straw spout or maintain a deformed state of the straw spout.
Means for solving the problems
The above problem is solved by a beverage container according to the present invention, comprising: a container body having a container opening and configured to contain a beverage; a base portion attached to the container body and covering the container opening portion; a spout portion attached to the base portion and having a straw spout through which the beverage contained in the container body is discharged; and a lid portion attached to the base portion so as to be openable and closable by a hinge portion, the lid portion including a straw tip storage portion formed inside an edge portion provided on a side opposite to the hinge portion, the base portion including a first protrusion portion that protrudes toward the lid portion in a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, the lid portion including: a second protrusion portion that protrudes toward the base portion in a state where the cover portion is closed with respect to the base portion; and a straw tip moving mechanism that moves a tip portion of the straw drinking spout when the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, and moves the tip portion of the straw drinking spout while being bent by the straw tip moving mechanism toward the straw tip housing portion when the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, and is released while being housed in the straw tip housing portion in a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion.
According to the beverage container of the present invention, the lid portion is openably and closably attached to the base portion via the hinge portion, and has the straw tip accommodating portion formed inside the edge portion provided on the side opposite to the hinge portion. The base portion has a first protruding portion that protrudes toward the cover portion in a state where the cover portion is closed with respect to the base portion. The cover portion has a second protrusion portion that protrudes toward the base portion in a state where the cover portion is closed with respect to the base portion. The lid portion has a straw tip moving mechanism for moving the tip of the straw drinking spout when the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion. Thus, a long straw spout, which is most suitable for infants to drink, can be reliably stored, and the flow path of the straw spout can be closed to suppress leakage of the beverage.
When the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is bent by the straw tip moving mechanism and moves toward the straw tip housing portion. In a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion and released. Therefore, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout does not come into contact with other members such as the lid portion and the base portion in the state of being accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion, and is not subjected to a load from other members. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the application of an unnecessary load to the portion of the straw spout other than the portion that is pressed by the first projection and the second projection and bent to close the flow path. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the application of an excessive load to the straw inlet. This can prevent the straw drinking hole from being significantly deformed or the straw drinking hole from remaining deformed.
In the beverage container according to the present invention, it is preferable that the base has a first locking portion, and the straw distal end moving mechanism is a second locking portion that is locked to the first locking portion when the lid portion is closed with respect to the base.
According to the beverage container of the present invention, the straw distal end moving mechanism is a second locking portion that is locked to the first locking portion provided in the base when the lid portion is closed with respect to the base. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide the straw distal end moving mechanism as a special portion other than the second locking portion that stops the lid portion to the base portion. Therefore, the structure of the lid portion can be simplified, and a straw tip housing portion having a larger space can be secured. Thus, the tip end portion of the straw drinking spout is more reliably housed in the straw tip housing portion and released in a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion. Further, the user can store the tip portion of the straw drinking spout in the straw tip storage portion only by the closing operation of the lid portion. This makes it possible to more reliably suppress the straw drinking hole from being significantly deformed or maintain the straw drinking hole in a deformed state.
In the beverage container of the present invention, it is preferable that the lid portion has: a lid body supported openably and closably by the base portion via the hinge portion; and a lid moving section provided movably in a direction toward the hinge section with respect to the lid main body, and having the straw tip moving mechanism, wherein a tip portion of the straw drinking spout is pressed by the straw tip moving mechanism moving in the direction toward the hinge section with respect to the lid main body, is bent, and moves toward the straw tip housing section.
According to the beverage container of the present invention, the lid moving portion is provided so as to be movable in a direction toward the hinge portion with respect to the lid main body, and has the straw distal end moving mechanism. The lid moving section having the straw tip moving mechanism moves in a direction toward the hinge section with respect to the lid main body, whereby the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is pressed by the straw tip moving mechanism to be bent and moved toward the straw tip accommodating section. In a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion and released. Therefore, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is more reliably moved toward the straw tip accommodating portion by the force from the straw tip moving mechanism, and is accommodated in and released from the straw tip accommodating portion in a state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion. This makes it possible to more reliably suppress the straw drinking hole from being significantly deformed or maintain the straw drinking hole in a deformed state.
In the beverage container according to the present invention, it is preferable that a tip portion of the straw spout has a backflow prevention valve provided with a liquid passage hole that opens when an external force is applied to the tip portion of the straw spout to allow the beverage contained in the container body to pass therethrough.
According to the beverage container of the present invention, in the state where the lid portion is closed with respect to the base portion, the tip portion of the straw drinking spout is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion and released, and does not come into contact with other members such as the lid portion and the base portion, and is not subjected to a load from the other members. Therefore, the straw drinking spout can be prevented from being deformed significantly or from remaining deformed. Thus, even when the tip of the straw spout has the back-flow prevention valve provided with the liquid passage hole, the liquid passage hole can be prevented from being kept open. Therefore, the beverage contained in the container body can be prevented from leaking through the liquid passage hole of the back-flow prevention valve.
Effects of the invention
According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a beverage container that can reliably accommodate a long straw spout that is most suitable for infants and young children, and can close the flow path of the straw spout to suppress leakage of a beverage, and that can suppress significant deformation of the straw spout or maintain the straw spout in a deformed state.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The embodiments described below are preferred specific examples of the present invention, and therefore, various technically preferred limitations are added, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to these embodiments unless specifically described in the following description. In the drawings, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted as appropriate.
The beverage container 2 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 3. The beverage container 2 of the present embodiment can be used as a beverage container of a drinking cup used when a user such as an infant or the like practices drinking a beverage. The beverage container 2 includes a bottle 3, a grip 4, a base 5, a spout 6, and a lid 7. The bottle 3 of the present embodiment is an example of the "container main body" of the present invention. The beverage container 2 of the present embodiment does not necessarily have to include the grip 4.
The bottle 3 has a container opening 31 at the top, and can contain a beverage therein. The bottle 3 is formed of a molded article of glass, synthetic resin, or metal, and has a relatively large container opening 31. Thus, the user of the beverage container 2 can easily perform operations such as cleaning the bottle 3 after drinking, pouring a liquid into the bottle 3, and pouring powdered milk or the like into the bottle 3 for brewing. The outer peripheral portion 32 of the container opening 31 is formed with a male screw. On the other hand, an inner peripheral portion (not shown) of the base 5 is formed with female threads. Thereby, the male screw of the bottle 3 and the female screw of the base 5 are fitted to each other, and the base is provided to be detachable with respect to the bottle 3.
The grip 4 has a grip main body 41 and a grip 42, and is formed of a relatively high-rigidity material, in other words, a hard material. Examples of the material of the grip portion 4 include synthetic resins such as polypropylene and polycarbonate. The external thread of the bottle 3 and the internal thread of the base 5 are fitted to each other, whereby the grip main body 41 is sandwiched between the bottle 3 and the base 5. The handle 42 is connected to a side surface of the grip main body 41 and extends downward in a substantially vertical direction from the side surface of the grip main body 41. This makes it easy for a user such as an infant to hold the handle 42 and to hold the beverage container 2.
The base portion 5 is disposed so as to face the container opening portion 31 of the bottle 3, covers the container opening portion 31, and is fitted to the outer peripheral portion 32 of the bottle 3 so as to be attachable to the bottle 3. The base 5 is formed of a relatively high rigidity material, in other words, a hard material. Examples of the material of the base 5 include synthetic resins such as polypropylene and polycarbonate. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the base 5 includes a first locking portion 51 and a first protrusion 53. When the cover 7 is closed with respect to the base 5, the first locking portion 51 is locked to a second locking portion 724 provided on the cover 7. In a state where the cover portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5 (a state shown in fig. 1), the first protrusion portion 53 protrudes toward the cover portion 7.
The drinking spout portion 6 has a straw drinking spout 61 and a straw hose 62, and is formed entirely of a soft material. Examples of the material of the spout portion 6 include elastomers such as hydrogenated styrene isoprene copolymer resin and styrene butene copolymer resin, and silicone. The material of the straw mouth 61 may be different from the material of the straw hose 62, or may be the same as the material of the straw hose 62.
As shown in fig. 3, the straw mouth 61 has a first flange portion 614 and a second flange portion 615 extending in the radially outer direction at the base end portion on the opposite side to the tip end portion 611. The first flange portion 614 is provided on the opposite side (lower side in fig. 3) of the distal end portion 611 as viewed from the second flange portion 615, and the size of the first flange portion 614 is larger than the size of the second flange portion 615. As shown in fig. 2, the straw spout 61 is attached to the base 5 by fitting an inner edge portion of the spout attachment hole 54 provided in the base 5 into a groove portion (not shown) provided between the first flange portion 614 and the second flange portion 615.
The straw spout 61 is a straw portion for placing the tip portion 611 in the oral cavity so that a user such as an infant can drink a beverage such as milk contained in the bottle 3. The tip 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is not only a tip surface of the straw drinking spout 61, but also a range extending from the tip surface of the straw drinking spout 61 to the base end portion provided with the second flange 615 by, for example, about 5mm to 10 mm.
The front end 611 of the straw spout 61 is provided with an anti-reflux valve 612. The back flow prevention valve 612 is a membrane provided to close the flow path of the straw spout 61, and has a slit-shaped liquid passage hole 613 provided at a substantially central portion of the membrane. The liquid passage holes 613 may have a form in which 1 slit extends in a predetermined direction, or a form in which 2 slits intersect. The liquid passage hole 613 is closed in a state where no external force is applied to the distal end portion 611 of the straw inlet 61. In this state, the backflow prevention valve 612 can prevent the beverage contained in the bottle 3 from leaking through the straw inlet 61. On the other hand, when a user such as an infant or the like engages the distal end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 and applies an external force to the distal end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61, the liquid passage holes 613 are opened. In this state, the beverage contained in the bottle 3 can pass through the liquid passage hole 613 through the flow path of the straw spout 61. Therefore, a user such as an infant or a young child can drink the beverage contained in the bottle 3 through the liquid passage hole 613 by applying an external force to the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 by engaging the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 and opening the liquid passage hole 613.
In this way, the beverage contained in the bottle 3 is supplied to the oral cavity of a user such as an infant through the flow path of the straw spout 61. That is, the straw spout 61 discharges the beverage contained in the bottle 3 to the outside of the bottle 3.
The straw hose 62 is connected to a base end portion opposite to the tip end portion 611 of the straw spout 61, and is disposed inside the bottle 3. As shown in fig. 3, the straw hose 62 is bent at a substantially middle portion. Specifically, the portion of the straw hose 62 below the substantially middle portion is bent to the same side as the side from which the straw spout 61 protrudes (the left side in fig. 4). Therefore, even when the user such as an infant drinks the beverage contained in the bottle 3 and tilts the beverage container 2 while holding the distal end portion 611 of the straw spout 61, the lower end portion of the straw hose 62 can contact the beverage having a lowered liquid level in the interior of the bottle 3 until the end. Therefore, a user such as an infant can drink the entire beverage contained in the bottle 3 without leaving any residue using the drinking spout portion 6.
The lid 7 is openably and closably attached to the base 5 via a hinge 712 (see fig. 4 to 7). The cover portion 7 is formed of a relatively high rigidity material, in other words, a hard material. Examples of the material of the cover 7 include synthetic resins such as polypropylene and polycarbonate. The cover portion 7 has a second latch portion 724 and a second protrusion portion 725. The second locking portion 724 is an example of the "straw tip moving mechanism" of the present invention. The second locking portion 724 is configured to move the distal end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 toward the straw distal end housing portion 722 (see fig. 4 to 7) when the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5, and to be locked to the first locking portion 51 provided in the base portion 5 when the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5. In a state where the cover 7 is closed with respect to the base 5 (the state shown in fig. 1 and 6), the second protrusion 725 is provided on the hinge 712 side and protrudes toward the base 5 when viewed from the first protrusion 53.
The lid 7 of the present embodiment includes a lid main body 71 and a lid moving portion 72. The cover main body 71 is openably and closably supported by the base 5 via a hinge portion 712. The cover moving portion 72 is provided movably in a direction toward the hinge portion 712 (a direction of an arrow a1 shown in fig. 3) with respect to the cover main body 71, and has a second locking portion 724. More specifically, the cover moving portion 72 is attached slidably in the direction of arrow a1 shown in fig. 3 with respect to the cover main body 71 along the upper surface 711 of the cover main body 71. When the lid moving portion 72 slides in the direction of the arrow a1 shown in fig. 3 with respect to the lid main body 71 along the upper surface 711 of the lid main body 71, the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction of the arrow a1 shown in fig. 3 in accordance with the movement of the lid moving portion 72. For example, the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction of the arrow a1 shown in fig. 3 in accordance with the movement of the cover moving portion 72 when locked to the first locking portion 51 and when released from the first locking portion 51.
When the second locking portion 724 functions as the "straw tip moving mechanism" of the present invention as in the beverage container 2 of the present embodiment, the entire lid moving portion 72 may not slide in the direction of arrow a1 shown in fig. 3 with respect to the lid main body 71 along the upper surface 711 of the lid main body 71. For example, only the portion having the second locking portion 724 may be provided so as to be movable in a direction toward the hinge portion 712 (in the direction of arrow a1 shown in fig. 3) by sliding or rotating with respect to the cover main body 71, and the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 may be moved toward the straw tip storage portion 722 when the cover 7 is closed with respect to the base 5. As described above, in the beverage container 2 of the present embodiment, the first locking portion 51 is provided and fixed to the base 5, while the second locking portion 724 is provided in the lid moving portion 72 of the lid 7 and is movable in the direction of the arrow a1 shown in fig. 3.
Next, the operation of the straw spout 61 according to the present embodiment when the lid 7 is closed with respect to the base 5 and when the lid 7 is opened with respect to the base 5 will be described with reference to fig. 4 to 7. As shown in fig. 4, the lid portion 7 has a straw tip housing portion 722. The straw tip receiving portion 722 is formed inside the edge portion 721 provided on the opposite side of the hinge portion 712. Specifically, the straw distal end housing portion 722 is formed inside the cover moving portion 72, i.e., on the base end side of the second locking portion 724. The straw distal end housing portion 722 has a space capable of housing the distal end 611 of the straw spout 61.
As shown by arrow a2 in fig. 4, when the lid portion 7 is rotationally closed with respect to the base portion 5 by the hinge portion 712, the straw drinking spout 61 is pressed and bent by the first protrusion portion 53 and the second protrusion portion 725 as shown in fig. 5, and is accommodated inside the rotational locus 78 (see fig. 4) of the edge portion 721. At this time, the second protrusion 725 is provided on the hinge 712 side when viewed from the first protrusion 53, and the first protrusion 53 is provided on the opposite side of the hinge 712 when viewed from the second protrusion 725, so that the distal end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is in contact with the second locking portion 724 in the direction in which the first protrusion 53 extends (upward direction in fig. 5).
In the beverage container 2 of the present embodiment, the entire straw drinking spout 61 is located inside the rotation locus 78 of the rim 721 in a state before the straw drinking spout 61 is pressed and bent by the first projection 53 and the second projection 725 (for example, the state shown in fig. 4). However, even when a part (for example, the tip end portion 611) of the straw drinking spout 61 is present outside the rotation locus 78 of the edge portion 721 in a state before the straw drinking spout 61 is pressed and bent by the first protrusion portion 53 and the second protrusion portion 725 (for example, the state shown in fig. 4), when the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5, the straw drinking spout 61 is pressed and bent by the first protrusion portion 53 and the second protrusion portion 725, and the entire straw drinking spout 61 is accommodated inside the rotation locus 78 of the edge portion 721. This enables the straw spout 61, which is longer and most suitable for infants, to be reliably accommodated in the space between the lid 7 and the base 5.
When the lid 7 is rotated and closed relative to the base 5 by the hinge portion 712, as indicated by an arrow A3 shown in fig. 5, when the user presses the edge portion 721 of the lid moving portion 72 in the direction toward the hinge portion 712, the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712 in accordance with the movement of the lid moving portion 72, as indicated by an arrow a4 shown in fig. 5. Alternatively, when the cover 7 is closed with respect to the base 5 and the second locking portion 724 is locked to the first locking portion 51, the second locking portion 724 receives a force from the first locking portion 51 in the direction toward the hinge 712. Then, as shown by an arrow a4 shown in fig. 5, the lid moving portion 72 moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712, and the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712 in accordance with the movement of the lid moving portion 72.
Then, as indicated by an arrow a5 shown in fig. 5, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is pushed by the second locking portion 724 to bend, and moves toward the straw tip housing 722. As shown in fig. 6, in a state where the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion 722 and released. That is, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 does not come into contact with other members such as the lid 7 and the base 5 in the state of being accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion 722, and is not subjected to a load from other members. As shown in fig. 6, the straw drinking spout 61 is pressed and bent by the first projection 53 and the second projection 725, and therefore the flow path of the straw drinking spout 61 is closed. This can suppress leakage of the beverage contained in the bottle 3.
According to the beverage container 2 of the present embodiment, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is accommodated in the straw tip end accommodating portion 722 and released in the state where the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5. Therefore, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 does not come into contact with other members such as the lid 7 and the base 5 in the state of being accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion 722, and is not subjected to a load from other members. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an unnecessary load from being applied to the suction pipe inlet 61 except for the portion that is pressed by the first projection 53 and the second projection 725 to be bent and the flow path is closed. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an excessive load from being applied to the straw inlet 61. This can prevent the straw drinking spout 61 from being significantly deformed or the straw drinking spout 61 from remaining deformed. That is, the straw mouth 61 can be prevented from being unable to return to its original shape.
As described above, in the beverage container 2 of the present embodiment, the second locking portion 724 is an example of the "straw tip moving mechanism" of the present invention. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a straw distal end moving mechanism as a special portion for stopping the lid 7 to the base 5 except for the second locking portion 724. Therefore, the structure of the lid 7 can be simplified, and a straw tip housing 722 with a larger space can be ensured. Thus, in the state where the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is more reliably housed in the straw tip housing portion 722 and released. Further, the user can store the tip end portion 611 in the straw tip end storage portion 722 by only the closing operation of the lid portion 7. This can more reliably prevent the straw drinking spout 61 from being significantly deformed or the straw drinking spout 61 from remaining deformed.
The lid moving unit 72 of the present embodiment includes a second locking unit 724 as a straw tip moving mechanism. When the cover moving portion 72 having the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712 with respect to the cover main body 71, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is pushed by the second locking portion 724 to be bent and moved toward the straw tip housing portion. Therefore, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is more reliably moved toward the straw tip accommodating portion 722 by the force from the second locking portion 724, and is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion 722 and released in a state where the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5. This can more reliably prevent the straw drinking spout 61 from being significantly deformed or the straw drinking spout 61 from remaining deformed.
Further, since the straw drinking spout 61 can be prevented from being deformed significantly or the straw drinking spout 61 can be prevented from remaining deformed, even when the liquid passage hole 613 is kept open in the case where the back flow prevention valve 612 having the liquid passage hole 613 is provided at the distal end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61. Therefore, the beverage contained in the bottle 3 can be prevented from leaking through the liquid passage hole 613 of the backflow prevention valve 612.
Next, as shown by an arrow a6 shown in fig. 7, when the lid 7 is rotated and opened with respect to the base 5 by the hinge portion 712, with respect to fig. 5, as shown by the aforementioned arrow A3, the user presses the edge portion 721 of the lid moving portion 72 in the direction toward the hinge portion 712, and as shown by an arrow a4 shown in fig. 5, the second locking portion 724 moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712 in accordance with the movement of the lid moving portion 72. Thereby, the second latch 724 is released from the first latch 51. That is, the state in which the first locking portion 51 and the second locking portion 724 are locked to each other is released.
When the lid 7 is rotated and opened with respect to the base 5 by the hinge portion 712, as shown in fig. 7, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is in contact with the mounting portion 723 forming a part of the straw tip housing portion 722, and is kept mounted on the mounting portion 723 until the lid 7 is opened at a predetermined angle with respect to the base 5. Therefore, when the lid 7 is rotated and opened with respect to the base 5, the tip end 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is kept in a state of being more reliably housed in the straw tip housing 722 until the angle of the lid 7 with respect to the base 5 reaches a predetermined angle. Here, the "predetermined angle" is, for example, about 30 to 45 degrees. However, the "predetermined angle" is not limited to this.
Accordingly, even when the beverage contained in the bottle 3 is warm and the pressure in the bottle 3 increases to form a positive pressure, and the beverage contained in the bottle 3 is ejected from the straw spout 61, the ejected beverage is sprayed onto the wall surface of the straw distal end containing portion 722, and direct spraying onto a user such as an infant can be suppressed.
The beverage container 2 of the present embodiment has been described above. The beverage container of the present invention is not limited to the beverage container 2 of the above embodiment. In the beverage container 2 of the above embodiment, the second locking portion 724 functioning as the straw tip moving mechanism moves in the direction toward the hinge portion 712 in accordance with the movement of the lid moving portion 72. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the second locking portion 724 serving as the straw distal end moving mechanism may be moved in a direction away from the hinge portion 712 (in a direction opposite to the arrow a4 shown in fig. 5). In this case, as shown in fig. 5, when the second locking portion 724 moves in a direction away from the hinge portion 712 in a state where the straw drinking spout 61 is pushed and bent by the first protrusion portion 53 and the second protrusion portion 725, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is released from the second locking portion 724 and is directed in a direction (upward direction in fig. 5) in which the first protrusion portion 53 extends by the elastic force or the restoring force of the straw drinking spout 61. Thereby, the tip end 611 of the straw inlet 61 moves toward the straw tip housing 722. As shown in fig. 6, in a state where the lid portion 7 is closed with respect to the base portion 5, the tip end portion 611 of the straw drinking spout 61 is accommodated in the straw tip accommodating portion 722 and released. Even in this case, the straw drinking spout 61 can be prevented from being deformed significantly or the straw drinking spout 61 can be prevented from remaining deformed. That is, the straw mouth 61 can be prevented from being unable to return to its original shape.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the claims of the present application. The structures of the above embodiments may be partially omitted or arbitrarily combined in a manner different from the above.
