BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container excellent in carrying an object to be stored such as a granular gum and a supplement tablet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the problems to be solved by the invention
Granular confectionery such as gum and supplementary tablets such as granular tablets are containers formed by injectin molding, containers formed by synthetic resin sheet molding,
It is often stored directly in a bottle with a screw cap.

However, each of the above-mentioned containers is preferable in that it has rigidity, because it can protect the objects to be stored, but since each of the objects to be stored freely moves and directly contacts the container, the objects to be stored are There was a drawback that the object was damaged by impact. In addition, each of the items to be stored may be damaged in the container due to the impact caused by the mutual contact. In particular, granulated gum and supplement tablets are often carried in a container, and in such a case, the above problem is remarkable. Moreover,
There is a possibility that the quality may be deteriorated due to moisture or the like because the hermeticity is inferior only by directly storing it in the container formed by the above-mentioned injectin molding or sheet molding.

Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and enables resealing to improve the sealing performance, so that each stored object is not accidentally moved and damaged during carrying. Another object of the present invention is to provide a container having excellent protection of the stored object.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and is characterized in that it is formed into a bag shape from a container body 3 having rigidity and a film having flexibility, In addition, a middle bag 2 in which a plurality of objects to be housed 4 are housed is provided, and the middle bag 2 is housed in the container body 3 and
One side of the middle bag 2 is fixed to the container main body 3, and the other side of the inside bag 2 from which the stored object is taken out is provided with a resealing means for closing an outlet portion for taking out the stored object 4. It is being done.

Since the inner bag 2 is made of a flexible film, it is needless to say that the inner bag 2 contains a large number of articles 4 to be stored. It deforms according to the number of objects 4 and comes into contact with the objects 4 to be contained, and restrains each object 4 from freely moving. As a result, the objects to be stored 4 do not come into direct contact with the container body 3, and the collision between the objects to be stored 4 can be reduced, so that the objects to be stored 4
Can be prevented from being damaged by impact.

Further, since the container body 3 has rigidity, it is possible to protect each of the objects 4 to be stored from an external impact or the like. Further, since the re-sealing means is provided, the sealed state of the inner bag 2 can be maintained even after the inner bag 2 is opened. The rigid container body 3 is made of a material that is harder than the flexible inner bag 2.
