DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention
The tablet-shaped fixed material is shaken by the shaking, but the quantity is not constant and varies widely.

The present invention is provided so that a predetermined number of the above solids can be taken out almost accurately.

[0005]

As a first means, a top plate 5 for closing an upper surface of a container body is provided with a blow-out hole 6 and a lid 10 hinged to a rear portion of the top plate is a stopper of a lid body 10. In a solids shaking container that can be opened and closed by lid undulation, the rear wall portion 11a of the stopper hangs downward longer than the front wall portion, and the left and right wall portions of the stopper are connected to the leg plates 12,12.
When the lid 10 is hung down to open the lid 10 to the container body until the solids 21 can be shaken out and tilted upwards and forwards, the stopper 13 attached to the lower end of the leg plate is provided with the shaking hole 6 The lower end of the plug rear wall portion 11a is formed so as to be able to come close to the rear edge of the blow-out hole 6 while engaging with the lower edge.

As a second means, the first means is provided and the stopper is formed into a cylindrical shape having an opening on the lower surface, and the inside of the cylindrical stopper 11 serves as a temporary fixing chamber 15 when the solid matter is shaken out.

As a third means, the inclined surface 8 for guiding the solid material 21 is formed from the inner surface of the upper part of the container body to the lower edge of the blow-out hole 6 while having the above-mentioned first or second means.

As a fourth means, it has the above-mentioned first, second, or third means, and the upper part of the container body is used as a cap body 3 for suspending the second peripheral wall 4 from the outer periphery of the top plate 5 and the cap body. The lid 10 and the lid 10 are integrally molded with each other, and the portion other than the upper portion of the container body is used as the container body 1 in which the first peripheral wall 2 stands up from the outer periphery of the bottom plate, and the second peripheral wall 4 is fitted onto the upper part of the first peripheral wall 2. It was

[0009]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Referring to the drawings, reference numeral 1 is a container body which stands up a first peripheral wall 2 from the peripheral edge of a bottom plate.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a cap main body which hangs a second peripheral wall 4 having a small outer diameter on the lower side from the outer periphery of the top plate 5 so that it can be fitted to the upper inner surface of the first peripheral wall. A blowout hole 6 is provided.

A plurality of triangular ribs 7 are provided at the corners of the inner surface of the upper end of the cap body 3 so that the upper surfaces of the ribs are continuous with the lower surface of the top plate and the outer surfaces are continuous with the inner surface of the second peripheral wall.
The inner surface of these ribs is an inclined surface 8 from the lower edge of the blowout hole 6 to the inner surface of the intermediate portion of the second peripheral wall 4. These inclined surfaces form a surface for guiding the tablet-like solid matter 21 to be stored in the container body to the blow-out hole 6.

The container body 1 and the cap body 3 may be integrated, and in this case, the container body is formed from them.

A lid 10 for covering the upper surface of the top plate is projected from the rear portion of the cap body top plate 5 via a hinge 9. The lid body hangs a cylindrical plug 11 for opening and closing the feeding hole 6, and leg plates 12, 12 hang from both left and right portions of the cylindrical plug, and stoppers 13, 13 are provided at the lower ends of these leg plates. Figure 1 with attached
When the lid is opened with the hinge 9 as the center,
These stoppers are provided so as to be engaged with the lower edge of the blow-out hole 6 so as to be able to maintain the lid opening angle obliquely upward and forward.

The opening angle is such that the solid material 21 can be discharged through the gap between the blow-out hole and the lower end of the front portion of the cylindrical plug 11 and is smaller than at least 90 degrees. The lower end 11a of the rear wall of the tubular plug 11 is
The lower end of the rear wall 11a is provided so as to be close to the rear edge of the swing hole when the lid is opened. The leg plates 12 and 12 may be continuous with the rear wall portion 11a.

Further, in the above structure, by pushing up the finger-hooking piece 14 attached to the lower edge of the front end of the lid, the stoppers 13, 13 are opened until they come into contact with the lower edge of the blow-out hole 6 as shown in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the container is tilted so that the rear part of the container faces downward or is substantially horizontal or the upper part of the container is located below the lower part.

In this state, the tubular plug 11 of the lid 10 is turned upside down, and the lower end opening is inclined upward toward the front side of the top plate 5 of the cap body.
The lower end of the rear wall portion 11a is close to the rear edge portion of the swing-out hole 6.

When the container body is laid down as described above, the solid material 21 contained in the container body enters the temporary fixing chamber 15 of the obliquely upward opening formed by the inner surface of the cylindrical plug as shown in the figure, and 21
Is located in a space 16 whose upper surface is open, which is formed by the inner surfaces of the rear wall 11a of the tubular plug and the left and right leg plates 12, 12.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, from the state shown in FIG. 3 described above, if the container body is kept in the collapsed state and the container body is rotated a half turn about the axis, the front side of the container body is directed downward. The space 16 and the opening side of the temporary fixing chamber 15 are displaced downward as shown in the figure, so that the solid matter located inside them can be dropped by its own weight. Further, at this time, the solid matter located in the container body and near the blowout hole 6 moves toward the container body by the inclined surface 8. Even when the inclined surface 8 is not provided, the solid material can be returned to the bottom side of the container body by returning the container body to the upright state at the same time when the above-mentioned shaking is completed.

After the completion of the above-mentioned shaking, the container body is returned to the upright position,
The lid 10 is closed.

[0020]

As described above, the present invention has the above-described structure. When the present invention is provided as described in claim 1, by shaking out as described above, only a fixed amount of solid matter is shaken out. Can be done.

According to the second aspect, it is possible to increase the swing amount.

According to the third aspect of the invention, it becomes easy to guide the solid matter to the blow-out hole, and it is easy to shake out all the solid matter remaining in the container body.

According to the fourth aspect, the container can be easily formed.
