2. Description of the Related Art Containers made of synthetic resin, cans, bottles or the like are used as containers for retort foods. Even among these retort food containers, synthetic resin containers
It is widely used due to its relatively high strength, light weight and low cost. However, there is a problem that the flange is distorted or deformed due to heating during the retort process and the lid material is peeled off. For this reason, it is general practice to widen the width of the flange and fix the lid member around the entire upper surface. However, if the lid member is fixed to the entire upper surface of the wide flange, a considerable pulling force is required for peeling the lid member when opening and taking out the food, which causes a problem that the container cannot be easily opened.

As a container having an annular convex shape on the upper surface of the flange, for example, there is a container described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 61-56262. This container is provided with a tongue extending in a radial direction on a part of a flange, and is formed on the upper surface of the flange with a concentric annular protrusion having a trapezoidal cross section and an outward protrusion having a chevron cross section. The projecting shape and the outer projecting shape are connected by a connecting portion that extends in the radial direction through the central axis of the tongue, and the lid material is heat-sealed to the upper surface of the inner projecting shape and the outer projecting shape to seal the opening. It is a container. When the lid is welded by providing an annular convex shape on the upper surface of the flange like this container, the strain at the time of heat sealing is absorbed into the annular convex shape to improve the sealing property. When it is picked up and peeled off, an opening is started from the connected connecting tips on the tongue pieces of the inner projecting shape and the outer projecting shape, and there is an effect that the initial opening is easily performed and the lid material is removed.

In the present invention, the container body is filled with the liquid or solid food, and then the lid member is entirely welded to the flange to seal it. The lid material may be a synthetic resin film or may be a laminate of aluminum foil on which a synthetic resin film is laminated, and a roll type or a sheet type is used. The outer shape of the lid member has a size that substantially matches the outer peripheral edge of the flange of the container, and a grip portion for opening the lid member is provided on the outer peripheral edge so as to project outward from the peripheral edge.
If such a lid material is welded to the entire surface of the flange, during the hot water or steam retort treatment, the flange may be distorted or the lid material may peel off even if it is slightly deformed or the outer peripheral edge of the lid material is curled. It does not cause problems such as wavy deformation.

However, a new problem arises in that the opening of the container requires a considerable amount of force, especially for initial opening. Therefore, in the present invention, for the purpose of facilitating the initial opening as much as possible and simplifying the peeling of the lid, at the time of heat-sealing the lid material, the lid material is opened at the outer peripheral edge of the flange upper surface where the opening gripping portion of the lid material is located. The non-sealing portion of the lid material is provided at an arbitrary depth within the width of the gripping portion. In the case of a sheet-molded container, this non-sealed portion may be provided with a concave step on the pressure-bonding surface itself of the heat sealer so that the lid member is not adhered. Alternatively, a concave step due to a difference in thickness may be provided in advance on the upper surface of the flange so that the lid member is not adhered to the concave portion by pressure bonding with a heat sealer.

Further, on the upper surface of the flange at a position corresponding to the non-sealing portion of the lid material, the outer peripheral direction (toward the grip portion of the lid material)
It is also possible to provide an arrow-shaped seal protrusion portion to facilitate initial opening. The arrow-shaped projection may be pressed and formed by providing a step on the pressure-bonding surface itself of the heat sealer, or may be previously provided on the upper surface of the flange like a container for injection molding. . The food package of the present invention in which such a container is filled with food and is subjected to retort treatment can easily peel off the lid material, particularly the initial opening, when the container is opened.

Since the container (a ") is injection-molded, the upper surface of the flange (3") is pre-concave when molding so that the non-sealing portion (9 ") is lower than the sealing portion (10"). It is formed with steps. The lid member (c ") is placed on the flange (3") and pressed by a ring-shaped heat sealer having a flat lower surface, or by rolling a roller-shaped heat sealer for sealing.

Industrial Applicability The present invention has a synthetic resin molded container, a food, and a lid member as its constituents since the object is a food package, and a flange is provided when the food is filled in the container and sealed. In the seal between the lid material and the lid material, a non-sealing portion is formed on the outer peripheral edge of the flange within the width of the opening grip portion of the lid material so that the seal can be easily opened and can withstand the retort heat treatment. , The food package in the retort-heated state can be easily obtained, and the non-sealing part is provided, so when opening, the flange of the part that overlaps the opening gripping part does not lift and peels from this part. It can be easily opened.

Further, since the lid member is almost entirely sealed to the upper surface of the flange, the lid member does not curl due to heating during the retort process. However, since the non-sealed portion is provided with the protruding seal portion toward the outer peripheral edge, upon opening, the unsealing force is concentrated on the protruding seal portion, and the opening is extremely easy. Further, in such a food package, as a container thereof, a sealing portion and a non-sealing portion can be formed in advance on the upper surface of the flange by steps other than the synthetic resin sheet molding and the synthetic resin injection molding. .
