  • a central portion of a tip of an extending piece 25 in a width direction is locally a region where a bag-body sealing portion 26 is not formed. That is, in the tip of the extending piece 25, an outer film layer 22 and an inner film layer 23 are not attached to each other, and a portion in which the layers are not attached together constitutes an inlet 25a through which a filler is inputted.
  • a containing portion 17 is sealed from an external space except for a filling port 15c, and hence the containing portion 17 can be sufficiently degassed by suctioning through the filling port 15c before putting the filler into a filling portion 60. This can more reliably inhibit the contents 18 contained in the containing portion 17 from being deteriorated (degraded) due to contact with oxygen retained in the containing portion 17.
  • a manufacturing method of a contents-containing sheet member container according to the present modification differs from a manufacturing method of a contents-containing sheet member container 300 according to the above exemplary embodiment in terms of a point described below. In other points, the method is similar to the manufacturing method of the contents-containing sheet member container 300 according to the above exemplary embodiment.
  • Fig. 13 schematically illustrates a shape of a sheet member container 100.
  • a contents filling step is performed so that a liquid level of contents 18 after the filling in the contents filling step is a position lower than a containing portion sealing seal 29b (region where the containing portion sealing seal 29b is formed in an extending piece 25). More preferably, the contents filling step is performed in a state where the sheet member container 100 is tilted so that the liquid level of the contents 18 after the filling in the contents filling step is the position lower than the containing portion sealing seal 29b.
  • the contents 18 can be inhibited from being interposed between layers of innermost layer sheet members (inner-bag forming sheet members 41) in the region where the containing portion sealing seal 29b is formed in the extending piece 25. Therefore, in the region where the containing portion sealing seal 29b is formed in the extending piece 25, the inner-bag forming sheet members 41 can be more reliably attached to each other, so that the containing portion 17 can be suitably sealed.
  • the extending piece 25 extends from an upper end of a container main body 20 in the same manner as in the exemplary embodiment.
  • the sheet member container 100 is tilted so that the liquid level of the contents 18 is the position lower than the containing portion sealing seal 29b. Therefore, when forming the containing portion sealing seal 29b, the contents 18 can be more reliably inhibited from being interposed between the layers of the innermost layer sheet members (inner-bag forming sheet members 41) in the region where the containing portion sealing seal 29b is formed in the extending piece 25.
  • various constituent components of the sheet member container 100 and the contents-containing sheet member container 300 do not have to exist independently of one another, and it is allowed that a plurality of constituent components are formed as one member, one constituent component is formed of a plurality of members, a constituent component is a part of another constituent component, a part of a constituent component overlaps with a part of another constituent component, or the like.
  • the present invention is not limited to this example, and the sheet member container 100 (or the contents-containing sheet member container 300) does not have to include the inner bag 40.
  • the containing portion 17 is configured by the container main body 20. That is, in the peripheral edge sealing portion 42, portions of the inner film layer 23 of the bag-body forming sheet member 21 are attached to each other to form the container main body 20 and also constitute the containing portion 17.
