2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to provide a decorative effect not only to synthetic resin containers but also to various containers, to display contents, and to write precautions for use, a printing method of printing directly on the surface of the container, There are a shrink method in which a printed film is covered and thermally shrunk, and a sticking method in which a label or a pattern printed on the surface of a container is attached, and the like, and these methods have been used depending on the shape and use of the container. Among them, the method of sticking a printed body such as a label has been frequently used because it has an advantage that it can be easily applied to containers and articles having various shapes. Labels, etc. with adhesive glue on the wall surface of the goods are carefully applied one by one by hand, or automatically by a special labeling machine or the like according to the goods. Have been taken.

However, in the former method of attaching a label or the like by hand, the accuracy of the attachment tends to vary depending on the skill and personality of the worker because the method depends on human labor, and the work efficiency is higher than that of a machine. There was also a disadvantage that it was inferior in terms of quality. In addition, the latter method of attaching with a sticking machine can improve the workability and improve the sticking accuracy as compared with the former method of manual work, and eliminate a certain degree of variation. Although it is possible, a special device according to the shape of the container is required, and a place for installing the device and a large amount of equipment cost are required.

When such a sticking method is applied to a synthetic resin molded container, the molded container molded by injection molding, blow molding or the like is taken out of a molding die and then adhered manually. The glued label must be stuck on the wall of the container or stuck with a label sticking machine. It was inevitable.

[0005] Therefore, with respect to various containers molded using a synthetic resin, after the above-described container is molded, it is troublesome to attach a label or the like to the surface of the container taken out from the molding die. When a container is formed using a synthetic resin by omitting the operation process, a method of attaching a label to the container at the same time as molding has been considered. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-242613 and Japanese Utility Model 8-426
A method such as that disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5 has been adopted. Each of these methods is a so-called insert in which a label or the like is set in a molding die in advance, and then a synthetic resin is blow-molded or injection-molded to be integrated with a molded product simultaneously with molding of a container. This is called molding or in-mold molding.

However, insert molding or in-mold molding in which a label or the like is attached at the same time as molding of a container as described above is not applicable to the case where the former is used in blow molding as disclosed in JP-A-63-242613. Does not cause much problems because the softened parisone is only stretched, but when used in injection molding as in the latter Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 8-4265, the molten resin is subjected to pressure flow. As it flows in the molding die, the molten resin flow often leaks to the front side of the label, or the label may be pressed and wrinkled, so that such a problem does not occur It took meticulous care to do so.

Generally, blow molding is suitable for molding a hollow container shaped like a bottle as a molding means for molding various synthetic resin containers.
Injection molding is suitable for molding containers with shapes other than bottles, especially wide-mouth containers for containing and sealing foods and other articles. The container and the like are generally formed by injection molding.

[0008] Therefore, when a wide-open hollow container having a cylindrical shape, a square shape, or any other shape, which is widely used as a container for storing foods or the like, is formed by injection molding, a label is simultaneously formed on the surface of the container. When the insert molding or the in-mold molding is performed so as to apply a pattern, decoration, or the like, the injection molds 7A and 7B are kept open as shown in FIG. 7A. From
After the insert 71 such as a label is attached to a predetermined position on the inner surface of the outer mold 7A of the molding die, as shown in FIG.
The container 74 is formed by closing the molding dies 7A, 7B and then injecting the molten resin 73 into the molding dies from the injection molding machine 72.

However, when the molten resin is injected into the molding dies 7A and 7B on which the inserts 71 such as labels are mounted as described above, the molding resin is provided at an appropriate position such as the end or the bottom of the molded product. In general, molten resin is injected into the mold cavity from the gate portion 7C, but during this injection molding, the insert 71 such as a label is tightly fixed at a predetermined position on the inner surface of the mold and is completely fixed. Otherwise, the molten resin often flows out to the front side of the label due to various causes such as the flow of the resin injected into the mold and the pressure. In particular, in the case of a rectangular cylindrical container having a flange that locks the lid at the opening of the container as in the present invention, the upper end of the label is incorrectly bent, wrinkled, and sometimes distorted. Sometimes.

Therefore, in a method of insert-molding and sticking a label or the like by injection molding, as one means for improving the above-mentioned disadvantages, a label or the like 61 to be insert-molded is used. As shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 6, the portions 61A and 61 adhered to both side walls of the container.
In some cases, insert molding can be easily performed by making the shape of 1B connected by a portion 61C to be adhered to the bottom wall of the container to prevent the label from moving during injection molding. In order to insert-mold the label or the like formed as described above by injection molding, the label is formed in an exploded view as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. After that, if the label is mounted in an outer mold and then injection-molded, insert molding can be easily performed. However, according to such a molding method, the label is affixed to the bottom wall surface of the container, which does not need to be affixed.

Therefore, considering a structure in which a label or the like is stuck only to the side wall surface of the container, if the container itself is a thin-walled injection molded product having a cylindrical shape, the cylindrical container When the insert molding is performed in order to stick the label in a cylindrical shape on the surface of the cylinder, the elastic force to open outwardly acts on the label or the like that is rolled into a cylindrical shape in a cylindrical shape, so that the cylindrical shape is applied. Since the label comes into close contact with the cavity surface naturally and a gap in which the molten resin flows between the back surface of the label and the molding die surface, there is no such a serious problem.

However, when the container itself is an injection-molded product having a thin-walled structure in the shape of a square tube such as a square, an attempt is made to insert-mold such that a label or the like is attached to the entire body surface of the rectangular container. When molded using a label or the like B cut into the shape of the developed view as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the label or the like is formed as an adhered body B1 in a state of being bent into a rectangular tubular shape as shown in FIG. It is mounted in the mold 5. Therefore, when the molten resin is injected into the mold cavity 53 from the bottom wall portion of the container to be molded, the sticking body B1 such as a label is provided with a folding line and is formed in a square shape, and in the case of a cylindrical shape. It is difficult for the label or the like to uniformly adhere to the inner surface of the outer mold as in the above, so that the molten resin spills between the label surface and the mold surface, or the molten resin It acts to push the label away, causing the molten resin to adhere to the label surface and the label to wrinkle, often resulting in defective products, especially when applied to the flange at the open end of the container. Defective portions were likely to occur in the upper end portion of the attached label B and in the portion where the labels were joined.

In order to eliminate the cause of such defective products, inserts such as labels are formed to be thicker so as to have a force for piles in the flow of the molten resin, or a molding die is used. By providing the means for holding the label or the like on the surface with, for example, a suction means 7C as shown in FIG. 7 or some other means, the insert such as the label may be displaced or wrinkled. A method of closely contacting the inner surface of the cavity so that there is no void can be considered.

However, if a thick insert such as a label is used, the label must be accurately bent when the label is mounted in a molding die.
In addition, since the label must be carefully moved so as not to move when the mold is clamped, the cost of raw materials is high and the molding cycle cannot be made too high. Also, in order to add a vacuum suction means to the mold of the molding apparatus so that inserts such as labels can be strongly absorbed and held on the inner surface of the cavity, the structure of the molding mold becomes somewhat complicated. Equipment costs will increase, and both means will increase the cost of the product.

Further, as a molding die used for the insert molding or the in-mold molding as described above, it is conceivable to use an outer mold portion in which an insert is easy to be mounted and whose structure is simple, having a split mold structure. However, if you try to mold using such a mold as a split mold, it is inevitable that a parting line of the molding die will occur on the surface of the molded product, so there is a sense of quality It is not suitable for manufacturing products.

Therefore, the applicant of the present invention can use the injection molding apparatus which has been conventionally used as it is, and can use a thin-walled container having a cylindrical shape, particularly, a thin-walled rectangular shape having a substantially square shape. At the same time as the injection molding of the container, the label etc. are in-mold molded, and as a result of earnestly studying to make it possible to stick the label etc. on the outer wall surface of the rectangular container neatly, it is mounted in the molding die. The cause of the deformation such as wrinkles due to the molten resin injected from the injected label or the resin attached to the front side of the label is that the shape of the label at the corner of the molding die is largely related. Do you get it.
