TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various containers have been used to store liquids, fluids, powders and the like. As such a container, for example, a PET bottle has been widely spread, and is mainly used for beverages, medicines and the like.

Today, the consumption of beverages and the like stored in such containers is enormous. Therefore, disposal of the container after consuming the beverage or the like is a problem. Conventionally, among such used containers, plastic bottles are transported to a processing plant by the municipality for separate collection, over-the-counter collection, etc., and become plastic raw materials. Then, next, new products such as containers and fibers are recycled into various product manufacturing plants.

However, in such a recycling method, the recovery cost and the raw material manufacturing cost are high, and the recycled product must be expensive. In addition, such a method requires electric power at the time of manufacturing the raw material, and is not sufficiently environmentally friendly.

On the other hand, instead of disposing the bottom cover 6 of the container with an insert mold, a hole is formed in the bottom of the container body 1 at the time of blow molding, and a threaded ridge 7B is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the hole to form a female thread 8B. To do. And the female screw portion 8B
Alternatively, the containers may be connected to each other by screwing the male screw portion 8A of the lid 3 that is screwed to another container.

As described above, by structurally connecting the containers to which the lids 3 are screwed, the containers and the lids 3 form multiple layers. This reduces the stress applied to each container. Further, it is possible to prevent the lid 3 from being scattered and increasing dust.

<< Second Embodiment >> A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings of FIGS. In the above-described first embodiment, the containers that are connected in series to form a floating body or a pipe have been described. In this embodiment, a procedure for connecting the containers shown in the first embodiment two-dimensionally or three-dimensionally and members for such connection will be described. Other configurations and operations are the same as those in the first embodiment.
Therefore, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted.

As described above, in this embodiment, the containers are connected two-dimensionally or three-dimensionally. Due to such a connection, the fixed stabilizers 9A-9D and the fitting clip 12
The member is used.

FIG. 5 is a plan view of the I-shaped fixed stabilizer 9A. As shown in FIG. 5, the fixed stabilizing plate 9A includes two polygonal openings 10 in a substantially elliptical plate-shaped member.

The size of the polygonal opening 10 depends on the collar portion 5 of the container.
Is a size that can be inserted. The distance between the centers of the two polygonal openings 10 depends on the concave portions 15 and the convex portions 16 on the side surfaces of the two containers.
(Refer to FIG. 1) to match the distance between the center axes of the containers when they are brought into contact with each other.

Then, in a state where the concave portions 15 and the convex portions 16 on the side surfaces of the two containers are combined and brought into contact with each other, the fixed stabilizer 9
The two polygonal openings 10 of A are passed through the neck 4 of each container and inserted into the collar 5. This connects the two containers in parallel.

Similarly, with respect to the three containers, the concave portion 15 and the convex portion 16 on each side are combined and brought into contact with each other.
The three containers are laterally connected by inserting a fixed stabilizer 9A. In this case, the collar portion 5 of one container
Two fixed stabilizers will be inserted in the.

In this way, a desired number of containers can be laterally connected by inserting two fixed stabilizers 9A into one container and connecting a plurality of adjacent containers. At that time, similarly to the procedure described in the first embodiment, the neck portion 4 (male screw portion 8A) of the container is screwed to the bottom lid 6 of another container, so that the lateral connection by the fixed stabilizer 9A is performed. Is fixed. Further, by this, the cascade connection of the containers described in the first embodiment and the parallel connection in the horizontal direction described in the present embodiment are combined, so that the containers can be combined vertically and horizontally.

FIG. 6 is a plan view of the L-shaped fixed stabilizer 9B. As shown in FIG. 5, this fixed stabilizing plate 9B is provided with three polygonal openings 10 in a substantially L-shaped plate member. Also in this fixed stabilizer 9B, the distance between the centers of the two polygonal openings 10 is equal to the concave portion 15 and the convex portion 1 on the side surfaces of the two containers.
6 (see FIG. 1) and the distance between the center axes of the containers when they are brought into contact with each other.

In a state where three containers are arranged in an L shape and the concave portions 15 and the convex portions 16 (see FIG. 1) on the side surface are combined and brought into contact with each other, the polygonal opening 10 of the fixed stabilizing plate 9B is formed in each container. It is passed through the neck portion 4 and inserted into the collar portion 5. As a result, the three containers are connected in parallel in an L shape. In this way, the L-shaped fixed stabilizer 9B changes the direction of parallel connection of the containers by 90 degrees. Further, the parallel connection of the containers may be extended by the I-shaped fixed stabilizer 9A. That is, a plurality of containers may be laterally connected by using the L-shaped fixed stabilizer 9B and the I-shaped fixed stabilizer 9A.

Then, similarly to the procedure described in the first embodiment, the neck 4 (male screw portion 8A) of a container is screwed onto the bottom lid 6 of another container, whereby the fixed stabilizer 9A or 9B is used. The lateral bond is fixed. Further, by this, the cascade connection of the containers described in the first embodiment and the parallel connection in the horizontal direction described in the present embodiment are combined, so that the containers can be combined vertically and horizontally. Furthermore, L-shaped fixed stabilizer 9B
Thus, the horizontal connecting direction can be changed by 90 degrees.

FIG. 7 is a plan view of a T-shaped fixed stabilizer 9C. As shown in FIG. 5, this fixed stabilizing plate 9C is provided with four polygonal openings 10 in a substantially T-shaped plate member. This T-shaped fixed stabilizer produces a branch in the lateral connection of the containers. Such T-shaped fixed stabilizers 9C, I
A container can be connected in a three-dimensional shape by combining the mold-type fixed stabilizer 9A and the L-shaped fixed stabilizer 9B, and further by connecting in series by the male screw portion 8A and the female screw portion 8B.

FIG. 8 is a plan view of the + type fixed stabilizer 9D. As shown in FIG. 5, the fixed stabilizing plate 9D is provided with five polygonal openings 10 in a substantially + -shaped plate member. This + type fixed stabilizer 9D produces four branches in the lateral connection of the containers. Such a + type fixed stabilizer 9D, an I type fixed stabilizer 9A, and an L type fixed stabilizer 9B.
A container can be connected in a three-dimensional shape or a block shape by combining a T-shaped fixed stabilizing plate 9C and a T-shaped fixed stabilizing plate 9C, and by connecting in series with the male screw portion 8A and the female screw portion 8B.

Next, the thickness of the fixed stabilizer 9A and the like will be described. In this embodiment, the thickness of the collar portion 5 of the container is set to 1
Set to 0 mm. In addition, the thickness of the fixed stabilizer 9A, etc.
Set to mm. Thus, by inserting the two fixed stabilizers 9A and the like into one flange 5, the thickness of the flange 5 and the fixed stabilizer 9A can be made equal to each other.

On the other hand, in the cascade connection shown in FIG. 3, the distance from the upper end of the flange portion 5 of the container body 1B to the bottom surface of the container body 1A is 13 mm. That is, when two fixed stabilizers 9A and the like are inserted into the collar portion 5 and the containers are connected in series, a free space of 13 mm is created. In the present embodiment, such a vacant space position is eliminated by mounting a fitting clip 12 on the neck portion 4,
Reinforce the connection.

FIG. 9 shows the fitting clip 12. The fitting clip 12 is a member for filling a gap between each container and the fixed stabilizing plates 9A to 9D to reinforce the connection. Therefore, the thickness of the fitting clip 12 is 13 mm.

The fitting clip 12 is a tablet-shaped member with a part cut away, and has a polygonal opening in the center. Further, the outer circumference of the fitting clip 12 is uneven. The fitting clip 12 constitutes a leaf spring, and in a normal state, the opening distance of the cutout portion 12A is maintained at a predetermined dimension. This fitting clip 12
When attaching to the neck 4, the notch 12A is once expanded and pushed into the neck 4. Then, insert clip 1
Due to the elastic force of 2, the opening 12A is contracted, and the clip 4 is inserted into the neck 4 and clamped. In this way, since the fitting clip 12 functions as a leaf spring, the vicinity of the cutout portion 12A is particularly called a clip spring 14.

After inserting the fixed stabilizing plate 9A and the like and screwing between the containers, the fitting clip 12 is attached to the neck portion 4 to fix the fixed stabilizing plate 9A and the respective containers,
A construct is formed. In order to remove the fitting clip 12, a tensile force larger than the elastic force of the fitting clip 12 may be applied to expand the opening 12A. Note that the clip spring 14 shown in FIG. 9 may be provided with a fine hole, and the notch 12A may be screwed by the pin 13 having a threaded portion at the end. There is also a method of tying a PP band through a small hole or a method of fixing with an adhesive or caulking.

<Example of Connection Procedure> FIG. 10 is a view showing an example of vertical and horizontal connection of containers. Each container is connected in the following procedure. (1) The concave portion 15 and the convex portion 16 of the container are brought into contact with each other, and the fixed stabilizer 9A and the like are inserted up to the neck portion 4. Since the neck 4 has a substantially cylindrical shape, each container is rotatable even when the fixed stabilizer 9A and the like enter the neck 4. (2) Next, the male screw portion 8A of each container is screwed to the female screw portion 8B of the other container and connected in series. (3) Next, the fixed stabilizer 9A or the like that has entered the neck portion 4 of the vertically connected containers is moved to the position of the collar portion 5. This prevents the container from rotating. (4) Twelve clips are inserted into the neck 4 of the container whose rotation is suppressed by the fixed stabilizer 9A or the like.

By sequentially connecting the containers by the above procedure, the containers can be three-dimensionally connected with a desired length, width and depth.

FIG. 11 shows an example of a skeleton constructed by combining containers. In order to construct the squid, the cascade connection described in the first embodiment and the horizontal connection by the I-shaped fixed stabilizer 9A shown in FIG. 5 may be combined.

As described above, by unifying the standards of the container according to the present embodiment, the consumer can drink, food, fuel,
After using household items, buffers, structures, buoyancy bodies, and water supply pipe containers can be manufactured. Also, when water is difficult on the surface,
It can be used as a life raft in the event of a marine accident, an accident such as swimming, or an earthquake, typhoon, or other disaster. Also,
In the living environment, it can be used to prevent people and objects from falling by eliminating the height difference between feet, stairs, roads and gutters, and irrigation canals. It can also be used as a height difference sign in snowy countries.

By sequentially combining the connecting container, the collar portion 5, the container bottom cover 6, the fitting clip 12, and the fixing stabilizers 9A to 9D, and assembling them in the advancing direction of the horizontal or vertical direction and the three-dimensional predetermined angle direction, The surface area and volume of the container construct can be increased. With such a procedure, the size of the container structure can be increased. Such a structure can be used as, for example, a long-distance road separation barrier, a separation strip, or the like. Even if it is a huge structure, the total weight of the entire container structure is light, so it is easy to assemble, transport, and remove. Further, the load of the roof load is small even in the case of a collapse due to an earthquake, and unlike a conventional house, the damage caused by the collapse of the house, especially the pressure on the human body is reduced.

Further, such a structure can be used for a guardrail cushion, a fence, a garage, an indoor / outdoor tent, a simple water supply pipe, and the like. Such constructs can also be used in buoyancy bodies. In that case, the spout 2 of the container is sealed by connecting the containers. Further, a plurality of fixed stabilizers may be connected in parallel to form a raft. It can also be used for water structures such as sea sidewalks, sea roads and sea tunnels.

Further, the T-shaped, L-shaped, and cross-shaped fixed stabilizers 9A to 9D can be used to extend the structure in a predetermined direction of the three-dimensional shape. In addition, the container structure is further reinforced, wind pressure,
Branch wires and support rods may be added to the structure in order to improve load resistance against waves, external pressure, earthquakes, and snow pressure. In this case, use T-shaped, L-shaped, and cross-shaped fixed stabilizers to pass wires and support rods through the polygonal holes of the fixed stabilizers, fix the wires, and then lift and install the structure with a recker or the like. Good. When the fixed stabilizer is used in a building, fittings (windows, doors, sashes, sliding doors) may be fixed to the fixed stabilizer with screws, welded or attached with an adhesive, and assembled and fixed. Also, such connected containers can be used as supports for electrical wiring ducts.

<Modification> In the above embodiment, as the fixed stabilizer, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, the polygonal opening 10 is used.
Was used. In such a polygonal opening 10, the connecting direction when connecting containers in the lateral direction is restricted. Therefore, it becomes difficult to form a smooth curved line or curved surface when the above-mentioned fixed stabilizer is used.

FIG. 12 shows a structure of a fixed stabilizer 9E for solving such a problem. Fixed stabilizer 9 of FIG.
E is a modification of the I-shaped fixed stabilizing plate 9A shown in FIG. 5, and instead of the octagonal polygonal opening 10, a concave portion 1 is formed on the inner peripheral surface.
1A and a convex portion 11B, and has an opening 11 whose cross section forms a gear shape.

For example, such a concave portion 11A and a convex portion 11
When 12 sets of B combinations are formed, the displacement angle between two adjacent recesses 11A is 30 degrees, and the angle of the fixed stabilizer 9E can be set in units of 30 degrees with respect to the flange portion 5 (see FIG. 1). . This adjacent concave portion 11A (or convex portion 11)
By making the displacement angle of B) fine, the fixed stabilizer 9E
The setting angle of can be selected more finely. In this way, it becomes possible to set the connection direction of the container fixed by the fixed stabilizing plate 9E finely and form a smooth curve or curved surface.

In FIG. 13, a concave portion 11C and a convex portion 11D are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the fixed stabilizer 9E shown in FIG. 12, and the cross section has a gear shape.

<< Third Embodiment >> A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the above-described first embodiment or second embodiment, a container in which a plurality of containers are connected in parallel or in parallel has been described. However, if such a container is composed of, for example, an empty PET container,
Its strength as a structural material becomes a problem.

In this embodiment, a structure of a container and a manufacturing method for improving the structural strength of a resin container such as a PET container will be described. Other configurations and operations of the container are similar to those of the first embodiment or the second embodiment. Therefore, the drawings of FIGS. 1 to 13 will be referred to as necessary.

FIG. 14 shows a preform 24 obtained by accommodating a truss 23 made of circular and straight PET resin aggregates inside blow molding dies 50A and 50B, and further injection molding PET resin. Blow molding die 50A
And the procedure of inserting from the opening of 50B and performing blow molding.

The truss 23 is assembled in advance with an adhesive by combining PET resin aggregates. Instead of assembling the PET resin aggregate with an adhesive, the PET resin may be heat-melted or bonded.

The truss 23 thus constructed is mounted on the blow molding die 50A (arrow 100), and the opposing blow molding die 50B is combined with the blow molding die 50A (arrow 101).

Thus, blow molding dies 50A, 50B
With the truss 23 held therein, the heated preform 24 is inserted into the blow molding dies 50A and 50B through the opening and blow molded in the same manner as in the usual procedure. As a result, the preform 24 is blow-molded with the mold 50A,
The inner surface of 50B is entangled with and integrated with the truss 23. This makes it possible to obtain a PET resin container having an increased structural strength.

In the third embodiment, the PET resin container is taken as an example and the configuration and the manufacturing procedure for improving the structural strength of the container manufactured by blow molding are described. However, the practice of the present invention is not limited to PET resin containers. For example, the structural strength can be improved by using the same configuration in other resin containers such as polyethylene and vinyl chloride. << 4th Embodiment >>

And the support piece 26 are integrally formed. The direction of the tip 27 of the support piece is directed toward the inner surface of the bottom cover 6A, slightly above the center, and when the cover 3A (for fitting) is fitted into the bottom cover 6A, the inner wall groove 25 of the bottom cover 6A and the cover 3A. Outer wall groove mountain 28
And slide-match, and the connected container bodies 1A rotate,
Join without spinning. For that purpose, the bottom cover 6
By deepening the groove on the inner wall of A and the groove on the outer wall of the lid 3A, the fitting connection is ensured. Bottom lid 6A at the same time as fitting
If the tip 27 of the support piece existing in the lower part of the container passes through the support piece holding circumferential convex portion 29 provided on the neck portion of the container body 1A, the container will not come off and will serve as a bar.

The integral molding of the bottom cover 6A and the support piece 26 is indispensable for securing the strength of the support piece. However, when the integral molding is technically impossible, the support deformable piece 2 is formed.
Adopt 6A. In this case, the bottom cover 6A and the supporting deformation piece 2
The configuration and function of 6A will be described. The bottom cover inner wall groove groove convex portion 25 is set at a position where the support deforming piece 26A is bent into the bottom cover 6A recess, and each support deforming piece 26A existing in the lower circumferential portion of the bottom cover 6A is a bottom cover inner wall groove. Bends at a position lowered by one step on the mountain convex portion 25. this is,
When the support deforming piece 26A is bent in the concave portion of the bottom lid 6A, it is prevented from being excessively bent, and the position where the support deforming piece 26A and the support piece holding circumferential portion 29 are surely supported and coupled is set.

In the case of the fitting connection, the outer wall of the lid 3A has concave and convex groove ridges 28 from the upper part to the lower part, and the inner inner wall has the threaded ridge (7B) and the female threaded part (8).
It forms a screw thread. This allows the lid 3A to be screwed into the original opening spout 2 after drinking, and the lid 3A can also be fitted into the hole portion of the bottom lid 6A.

The shape of the bottom lid 6A used for the insert mold in the bottom concave portion of the container body 1A which can be fitted is as follows.
The outer wall has a convex rib portion, and the container main body 1A and the bottom cover 6A are strengthened to be fused with each other to provide a container capable of withstanding a building load. The inner wall is hung from the upper part to the lower part to form a concave and convex groove portion 25 to enable fitting connection, and has a supporting piece 26 on the lower circumferential portion of the inner wall, the shape of which is the shape of the lid 3A of the opening of another container. At the same time as the uneven portion 28 of the outer wall reaches the insertion position, the tip 27 of the supporting piece of the lower circumferential portion of the inner wall of the bottom lid is present under the lid 3A.
Supporting piece holding circumferential convex brim portion 2 at the neck of the container body 1A
It may be joined to the lower side of 9 and the lid 3A and the bottom lid 6A may be fitted and connected to connect the containers. But,
Rotational connection is not possible in the case of inset connection.

This fitting connection is made by the bottom cover 6A and the cover 3A.
Series connection is possible by fitting with. In order to perform parallel connection, the opening 10 of the fixed stabilizer is passed through the flange polygon 5 in advance, and the lid 3 is attached to the bottom lid 6A.
By fitting A, fixing between the containers, fixing of the stabilizing plate, series connection, and parallel connection are simultaneously formed. The fitting clip 12 and the neck circumference 4 necessary for the container rotation connection of the container body 1 shape are not necessary, and each container connection can be connected by the fitting connection of the bottom lid 6A and the lid 3A, but in disassembly, Separation of the support piece tip 27 and the neck support piece holding circumferential convex brim portion 29 of the container body 1A is only a method of cutting and fusing by a tool, which makes manual separation impossible, but for assembling a small-scale structure. Can be handled with a plug-in connection,
In the case of forming a strong structure, it is possible to form a strong structure by eliminating the space formed at each joint of the support piece 26, the indicator piece holding circumferential convex portion 29, the lid outer wall 28, and the inner wall irregular portion 25 of the bottom lid 6A. It will be possible. For that purpose, it is possible to strengthen the container including the joint portion and the container side wall joint portion by using hard silicone and various adhesives in the joint space, and it is possible to strengthen and fix the entire support piece 29. With this connection, it is possible to obtain the same effect as the rotation connection.

As described above, the connection is possible, but when it is used as a water supply pipe by pipe connection without using an adhesive for the purpose, it is necessary to eliminate a gap to prevent water leakage. It is also possible to prevent water leakage by attaching a 0-ring packing 31 for preventing water leakage to each of the concave portions 31 of the outer wall of the bottom cover 6A and the inner wall of the bottom cover 6A, or providing a space on the upper surface of the lid 3A where the packing can be arranged.

The lower stopper bar 30 of the supporting piece holding protruding collar portion 29 and the lid 3A provided on the neck of the container body 1A in order to avoid the possibility of being fitted into the container bottom lid 6A before the drink. The inner surface of the packing is retained by providing stoppers on the upper surface 30 and the side surface concave portions and by providing a plurality of convex portions on the upper surface of the lid 3A. In addition, it is possible to avoid erroneous connection. When fitting and connecting the container main body 1A, the stopper is gripped and rotated to separate the molding. The cut surface at that time should be in the recess.

As the shape condition for connecting the containers, the arrangement of the functional shapes of the container neck, the position of the polygonal collar portion and the container collar portion, and each shape are important factors, and the order of the arrangement, that is, the configuration and the shape, determines the function. It depends. This proves that it is not possible to rotate, fit, connect in series and parallel in the arrangement and shape of the conventional container. The shape changes depending on whether the container connection is rotating or fitting. The same thing can be said about the shape of the fixed stabilizer, and in order to construct the construction shape of the construct, for example, the tunnel shape with the container, the circumferential fixed stabilizer is used. If you understand the contents according to the above description, the structure will be developed by one-dimensional, two-dimensional, three-dimensional and containers, traffic, construction, sea, land, fire, fire fighting, agriculture, fisheries, aircraft. , Weather control at work sites (storms such as typhoons, direct sunlight blocking,
It is also possible to improve the social environment such as a container house that enables the cooling and heating effect of a railway platform.

The external shape of the accommodating portion of the container-shaped main body which enables the fitting connection can be any shape such as a cylinder, a cube or a polygon. In case of rotation connection,
Only a cylindrical container is possible, but the fact that it can be connected by fitting also facilitates square block assembly.

As described above, the difference between the embodiment of the shape of the container body 1 adopted for the rotary connection and the embodiment of the container body 1A adopted for the inset connection is that the neck of the container body holds the supporting piece holding circumferential projection in the case of the rotary connection. The collar portion is not necessary, and in the case of the fitting connection, the supporting piece holding circumferential convex portion is required in the neck portion of the container body 1A to hold the supporting piece. Also, the bottom lid 1 and the bottom lid 1A. Differences in the configurations and functions of the lid 1 and the lid 1A will be apparent based on the above description. The difference in the embodiments is the difference between having a support piece holding circumferential convex collar part of the neck part or not using a fitting clip, and constructing a series, parallel, solid, arch shape using a fixed stabilizer. The embodiment, the example, and the like are the same as those described in the rotational connection. In order to form a tunnel shape by constructing the container, the outer shape of the fixed stabilizer is a shape along the circumference of the tunnel. If rainwater collects on the roof, a hole will be provided in the fixed stabilizer.

A structure such as a building can be constructed by connecting containers having such a strengthened structural strength. In such a structure, water, sand or the like having a large specific gravity may be injected into the foundation portion. With such a strengthening of the container,
Load on fixed stabilizer and container, external force, reaction force, stress, internal force,
By reducing the amount, the weight of the structure can be reduced. Also,
You may install the structure by the container in the room and use it for the disaster prevention by the earthquake. For example, if such a container is installed in a house in combination with a dome shape (kamaboko shape), the interior space is maintained even when the house collapses, and crush death due to the collapse of the house at bedtime can be avoided. If the horizontal connection container is directly connected to the water supply, it can be used as a fire hose in case of fire. Also, by using the container material that corresponds to the application,
It becomes possible to solve each of the problems and to deploy a more stable structure in the right place.

As described above, according to the present invention, a container that is difficult to recover and reuse can be used as a structure without reprocessing.

It should be noted that, in the conventional container shape, there is only a method of permanently recovering and utilizing it for recycling. In view of the present situation, all the container shapes such as beverages, fuels, daily necessities, etc. are repaired, that is, connected. The means for functionally utilizing as a possible container are lids 1 and 3A, polygonal collars, container protrusions, container side surface irregularities, container bottom lids 6 and 6A, series, parallel,
The arrangement and shape of the rotation connection and the insertion connection were used. If the containers that can be constructed in this way are unified and unified in container shape all over the world, the applications will expand infinitely,
It is possible to build a peace in a world without borders, that is, to build an ugly human race, a noble spirit without battle. The reason why it is possible is that it is possible to control nature by container connection, and it is possible to control the harsh natural world. Countries in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Latin America also control nature with container structures, improve lives, green paradise desert areas, solar power just below the scorching equator, world sea in container tunnels, scorching desert It is also easy to go to the extreme cold spots such as, Antarctic, Arctic, Everest,
If it is possible to avoid mountain distress and control the natural environment, the nature of midsummer, etc., a food problem, that is, a stable supply of agricultural products can be measured. This is a country that suffers from food shortages now. By eliminating this and making a big difference in the living environment, it is possible to eliminate the gap between rich and poor. In addition, you can walk across the surface of the sea in a sea tunnel, easily enable overpasses at road intersections, and use a closed vacuum inside the container tunnel for logistics transportation, or use wind in the wind tunnel. Transportation, utilization as a means of transportation, shipping business using ocean currents, utilization of typhoons, and building bridges in space are the challenges of humanity's infinite possibilities.

In addition to the above-mentioned effects, as a familiar problem, weather conditions greatly affect the process of producing agricultural crops, resulting in a reduction in work efficiency of rice cultivation, vegetables, fruit cultivation, and heavy labor. Embed the container connection in the paddy field after the cultivation of rice cultivation by this container connection, and after several days, if the container connection is lifted before the paddy soil hardens, the drainage channel will remain after the container connection shape in the paddy field. Reduce the time and heavy labor that farmers spend on soil management by farmland cultivation. However, in the current configuration of the container shape, the container is deformed, and the container must be returned to the current state before it can be reused. To maintain the shape, a truss aggregate is required at the time of blow molding. Other construction uses include household items such as chairs, desks,
The range of applications will expand infinitely if we develop applications such as stepladders, temporary housing, greenhouse paddy fields, greenhouse orchards, and garages.

Further, not only in the bottle container but also in the conventional cylindrical container such as aluminum can and steel can, the supporting piece and the deforming supporting piece are arranged on the inner wall circumference of the concave portion at the bottom of the container, and the convex brim is provided on the upper portion of the container. The shaped containers with which it has become possible to connect.

Fires in high-rise buildings, emergency evacuation tools and devices, such as evacuation pipes, ladders, ducts, emergency stairs, etc., make it possible to easily save lives if a container is constructed.

If a connectable container that can be constructed is realized in this way, no one will be illegally dumped at the road edge, fields, coasts, etc. It will be re-examined as a valuable container by adding a functional effect by reviewing its shape to a container that has no added value after the container is used.
