Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a container for detergents and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As described in Japanese Patent No. 2665903, a locking tongue is provided on an upper part of a front plate of a container body as a container.
Some lids are closed by locking a locking recess formed inside the front plate of the lid with the locking tongue of the container body.

[0003]

However, the prior art has the following problems. It cannot be easily confirmed from the outside of the container whether or not the locking recess inside the lid is locked to the locking tongue of the container body.
Therefore, it is difficult to confirm the degree of closure of the container.

When the container is transported, the user's fingers easily grab only the front plate of the lid. When the container is lifted in this state, the container body comes off the lid and the container body is turned over by the weight of the contents. Then, there is a possibility that the contents may spill out.

An object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily confirm the degree of closure of a container.

Another object of the present invention is to make sure that the container lid and the container main body can be transported while securely grasped.

[0007]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a container having a lid hinged to a back side of a container body, wherein the container body has a front plate having an upper edge portion inside the container. A folded plate is provided, the outer edge of the folded plate is adhered to the back surface of the front plate, and a plug portion is provided at a portion of the front plate corresponding to the folded plate, and the lid is attached to the container body. In the closed state, a tongue piece inserted into the insertion portion of the container body is provided.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a container 10 is provided with a lid 21 which can be freely opened and closed on a container main body 11. The lid 21 is hingedly connected to the back side of the container main body 11. I have. The container body 11 is a folded body of paperboard, and the bottom plate 12
A front plate 13A and a back plate 13B are provided around four sides (not shown).
And the side plates 13C and 13D are raised, and an opening 14 is provided.

The lid 21 is a folded body of paperboard, and the top plate 22
The front plate 23A, the back plate 23B, and the side plates 23C and 23D are lowered on the four sides around the container, and the back plate 23B is attached to the container body 11.
Is hinged to the rear plate 13B.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the container body 11 includes a front plate 13A, a back plate 13B, and both side plates 13C.
13D is provided with a folded plate 15 that is folded inside the container at the upper edge of the front plate 13D.
A, the back plate 13B and the side surfaces 13C, 13D are adhered to the back surfaces of the side plates 13C, 13D with adhesive portions 16, and the front plate 13A is provided with an insertion portion 17 at a portion corresponding to the folded plate 15 (non-adhesive portion surrounded by the adhesive portion 16). . The insertion portion 17 is, as shown in FIGS.
It consists of an upwardly convex dome-shaped cut line.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2,
The tongue piece 24 is inserted into the insertion portion 17 of the container body 11 in a closed state attached to the container body 11.

The tongue piece 24 of the lid 21 is provided on the front plate 23A so as to project. Then, with the lid 21 closed on the container main body 11, the dome-shaped insertion portion 17 of the container main body 11 overlaps the front plate 23A of the lid 21 over a range of height H (FIG. 2).

As shown in FIG. 1, the container body 11 is provided with insertion guiding portions 18 and 19 for the lid 21 around the insertion portion 17 on the front plate 13A. The insertion guiding section 18
Between the upper edge portion of the front plate 13A and the insertion portion 17, the insertion portion 17
A perforation line or a cut line is provided at a position corresponding to the widthwise center portion of the front panel 13A.
Of the tongue piece 24 is formed into a concave shape by being drawn into the lower part of the insertion part 17 to form a concave surface. The insertion guiding section 19 is provided with cutting lines 19A and 19B extending vertically at both ends of the insertion section 17, and the upper part of the insertion section 17 on the front plate 13A is drawn in by the upper cutting line 19A. The guide path for the tongue piece 24 is formed in the upper part of the insertion part 17 by deforming and projecting and deforming the lower part of the insertion part 17 by the lower cutting line 19B.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the following operations are provided. (Operation Corresponding to Claim 1) When the container 10 is closed, the tongue piece 24 of the lid 21 is
It can be easily confirmed from the outside of the container 10 whether or not the container 10 is completely inserted into the first insertion portion 17, and the degree of closing (sealing degree) of the container 10 can be easily confirmed.

[0015] The container body 11 is inserted into the front plate 13A.
7 is provided, but the back side of the insertion portion 17 is sealed by the folded plate 15, so that the tightness of the container 10 can be ensured.

(Action According to Claim 2) With the tongue piece 24 of the lid 21 inserted into the insertion portion 17 of the container main body 11, the insertion portion 17 of the container main body 11 is connected to the front plate of the lid 21. It was made to overlap to the side of 23A. Therefore, when transporting the container 10, it is rather difficult for the user to grasp the front plate 23 </ b> A of the lid 21 and the insertion part 17 of the container body 11 by hand while overlapping, and to grasp only the front plate 23 </ b> A of the lid 21. For this reason, lifting of the container 10
The lid 21 and the container main body 11 are securely grasped, and the outflow of the contents due to the container main body 11 being turned over can be avoided.

(Effects Corresponding to Claim 3) The insertion guide portions 18, 19 are provided on the front plate 13A of the container body 11.
, The insertion portion 17 in the front plate 13A
The upper part is retracted, and the lower part is protruded to open the insertion part 17, so that the tongue piece 24 of the lid 21 can be easily inserted into the insertion part 17.

Since the insertion portion 17 is formed by an upwardly convex dome-shaped cut line, when the insertion of the tongue piece 24 into the insertion portion 17 is started, the outer edge of the tongue piece 24 is in contact with the insertion portion 17. The length is shortened, the insertion resistance is reduced, and the insertion property is improved. By forming the outer edge of the tongue piece 24 into a dome shape that is convex downward, the insertability can be further improved.

In the practice of the present invention, the container body and the lid may be made of laminated paper in which a plastic film is laminated on paperboard.

Further, the container body and the lid may be formed by bending one sheet of paperboard.

[0021]

As described above, according to the present invention, the degree of closure of the container can be easily confirmed.

Further, according to the present invention, the container lid and the container main body can be securely held and transported.
