DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of a container with a label according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, in which a storage recess 2 is formed on the outer surface of a container body 1, and covers the storage recess 2. A description will be given of a labeled container in which the cylindrical shrink label 3 is externally fitted to the container body 1 as described above.

As shown in FIG. 2, the container body 1 has a cap 4 attached to an upper opening, and is formed in a cylindrical shape as a whole. The body 1a of the container body 1 and the cap 4 are formed to have substantially the same diameter.

The housing recess 2 is formed in the body 1a of the container body 1. The storage recess 2 is vertically long and formed in a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and is recessed from the outer peripheral surface of the body 1a toward the back side (the axis of the body 1a). The material and shape of the container main body 1 such as a glass bottle and a plastic bottle are not particularly limited, but plastic molding, particularly blow molding, is preferable because the formation of the storage recess 2 is easy.

Although various contents can be put in the container body 1, in this embodiment, the medicine is stored as the contents, and the instruction manual P is used as an accessory to store the recess 2.
Stored in.

That is, after the medicine is introduced from the mouth, the mouth is sealed with the cap 4 and the instruction manual P folded in accordance with the recess 2 is easily peeled off the recess 2 with a weak adhesive or the like. The container body 1 is temporarily fixed and stored, and thereafter, the container main body 1 is fitted with the cap 4 with a generally cylindrical shrink label 3, and the shrink label 3 is thermally contracted and adheres to the container main body 1.

Here, the shrink label 3 is, for example,
It is formed in a cylindrical shape from a polyvinyl chloride film, a polyethylene film, a polypropylene film, a polystyrene film, a polyester film, etc., having a thickness of 30 to 100 μm which can be thermally shrunk in the circumferential direction of the container.

Then, the cylindrical shrink label 3 includes:
A perforation for opening is engraved. The perforation for opening is a horizontal perforation 5 (break line) engraved over the entire circumference so as to cross a location approximately one third above the recessed portion 2.
And a pair of vertical perforations 6 engraved from the horizontal perforation 5 to the upper end of the shrink label 3 at the lateral position of the storage recess 2. Double vertical sewing machine surface 6,6
The portion formed between them is the opening piece 7, and the container can be opened by picking the knob 8 provided at the upper end thereof and separating the opening piece 7 downward. This opening allows the shrink label 3 to be opened. The upper side is removed as shown in FIG. 3 so that the cap 4 can be removed.
3 opens and the upper end of the instruction manual P is exposed.

As described above, even when the container is opened, the lower side of the shrink label 3 remains as a label while maintaining the close contact with the container body 1. Therefore, from the remaining portion 3 a of the shrink label 3 and the storage recess 2, a storage pocket portion 9 whose upper side is opened as an access port for the instruction manual P is formed. In such a state, the remaining portion 3a of the shrink label 3 covers approximately 2/3 of the lower side of the storage recess 2, and the stored state of the instruction manual P is held by the remaining portion 3a as shown in FIG.

It is necessary to set the engraving position of the horizontal perforation 5 according to the weight of the articles to be stored and the possibility of deformation, and it is necessary to support the articles with the remaining portion 3a at least above the center position. Is preferably located at
When a deformable article such as the instruction manual P is to be stored, the opening 9a can be small, so that the engraving position can be set so as to open approximately 略 to ３ of the upper part.

The container with a label according to the present embodiment has the following configuration, and therefore has the following advantages. That is, in the unopened state, since the instruction manual P is stored in the storage recess 2, it does not become an obstacle even if the instruction manual P is attached as an accessory, and the storage recess 2 is closed with the shrink label 3. Since the instruction manual P is not exposed to the outside of the container,
Breakage or loss of the instruction manual P during the distribution process can be prevented, and the container itself is not bulky.

Further, the container can be opened by cutting off a part of the shrink label 3 along the perforation for opening, and the opening of the storage recess 2 can be opened by the opening operation. Moreover, the remaining portion 3a of the shrink label 3
Unnecessary jumping or dropping of the instruction manual P from the storage recess 2 is prevented, and when necessary, the storage pocket 9 is used.
The user can easily pick out the upper end of the instruction manual P from the upper opening 9a.

After use, the instruction manual P can be stored again in the storage pocket 9 through the opening 9a, and can be stored together with the container. Therefore, the storage location of the instruction manual P is not troubled, and its loss is also prevented. In addition, since the storage pocket 9 is not provided so as to protrude outward from the container, but is provided with a depression in the container body 1, the instruction manual P Body 1
The container can be stored neatly without protruding outward from a, and the outer shape of the container can be maintained as compared with the case where the storage pocket 9 is not provided.

As described above, since the shrink label 3 is not removed as a whole, but a part of the shrink label 3 is left as a label and as an outer wall of the storage pocket portion 9, the shrink label 3 is suitable for re-storage and storage of other articles. It is.

In the above embodiment, the medicine is stored as the contents of the container, and the instruction manual P is stored in the storage recess 2. However, the contents of the container and the articles stored in the storage recess 2 are also particularly limited. However, as described above, the article is previously stored in the recess 2.
It does not have to be attached as an accessory. In other words, a self-made recipe, a memo, or a small item such as a favorite spoon can be stored in the storage pocket portion 9 partly opened by opening. In any case, an article necessary for using the contents stored in the container can be stored in the storage pocket portion 9, so that the storage place is not troublesome.

Further, in the above description, the container in which the entire container is packaged with the cylindrical shrink label 3 is opened to open a part of the storage recess 2.
A separate break line from the perforation for opening may be provided so that the opening is performed separately.

Further, the label for closing the storage recess 2 is not limited to the cylindrical shrink label 3, but may be any other than the cylindrical one.
A flat label sized to cover the entire storage recess 2 may be attached to the container body 1 by sticking or the like. However, in the case of attaching a flat label to the container body 1, it is necessary to have a configuration that allows a part to be cut off to be detachable from the container body 1 and that prevents adhesion of an article to be stored and the back surface of the label. ,
It is preferable that the cylindrical shrink label 3 is brought into close contact by heat shrinkage.

[0026]

As described above, since a part of the label is cut off to form a storage pocket portion through which articles such as an instruction manual and a dispensing spoon can be taken in and out, the contents stored in the container can be obtained. These articles, which are required when using the device, can be stored in a container and set by putting them in a storage pocket portion.
