Description

  The present invention relates to a beverage container that contains teas such as juice and barley tea, and beverages such as milk.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, a beverage container for giving a beverage such as juice to infants and the like is known in which a straw is attached. The beverage container can be used to drink from a straw.

However, since such a beverage container with a straw communicates with the inside of the beverage container and the straw, when it is carried in a bag when going out, etc., the stored milk etc. is passed through the straw. There was a problem that it might leak out.
For this reason, the drink container with a straw of the type which provides food in the drink container with a straw is proposed (for example, patent documents 1).
That is, such a type of beverage container with a straw has a mechanism in which a hood opens and closes on the upper side of the beverage container as shown in FIGS. When the hood is in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 10 of Patent Document 1, the hood bends the straw so that the opening of the straw is closed, and milk or the like does not flow out of the opening of the straw. It has become.

JP 2002-326655 A (FIG. 10 etc.)

By the way, the straw is formed of a material having high elasticity, for example, a resin having low hardness so that it can be bent by a hood.
Further, in order to change the hood arranged in the closed state to the open state as described above, it is necessary to move the hood which is bent and held in the straw in a direction away from the straw.
However, if you move the hood that presses the straw made of such an elastic material, the straw will move in the same direction as the hood moves. The problem of inhibiting is caused.
In order to solve such a problem, paragraph number 0018 of Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which a plurality of small protrusions are provided on the inside of the hood in order to reduce the frictional resistance.
However, when the inventors of the present application actually tried this configuration, the frictional resistance was still large and it was difficult to move the hood to the open state. Therefore, if the gap between the hood and the straw is widened to facilitate opening and closing of the hood, the function of reliably bending the straw will be affected, resulting in insufficient sealing. was there.

  Then, it aims at providing the drink container which can perform the movement of the food | hood part contact | abutted to drinking parts, such as a straw, more smoothly.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a beverage container having an opening on an upper surface and having a container main body for containing a beverage and a lid portion disposed on the opening side of the container main body. The lid portion has a drinking mouth support portion for arranging a drinking mouth portion made of an elastic body for supplying the beverage accommodated in the container body to the outside, and the lid portion is arranged on the drinking mouth support portion. A hood portion for covering the drinking mouth portion, and the hood portion moves along the drinking mouth support portion to open the covering position covering the drinking mouth portion or the drinking mouth portion. When the hood portion is disposed at the covering position, the drinking mouth portion is accommodated in the hood portion in a bent state, and the hood at the covering position is configured to be selectively disposed at the open position. On the side of the mouth part of the part is in contact with the mouth part Is abutting projection is formed projecting ridge for the abutting projection, it is achieved by a beverage container, characterized in that arranged connected along the moving direction of the hood portion.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the protruding contact protrusion for contacting the drinking mouth is formed on the drinking mouth side of the hood at the covering position.
For this reason, the contact area between the mouthpiece portion and the hood portion made of an elastic body is limited to the portion of the abutment protrusion formed on the hood portion. Therefore, since the generation of frictional force caused by the movement of the hood portion can be reduced, the hood portion can be moved smoothly.
In addition, since the abutment protrusions are arranged continuously along the moving direction of the hood portion, the frictional force does not change in the moving direction of the hood portion. For this reason, the movement of the hood part can be kept constant, and the hood part can be moved more smoothly.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 2, in the configuration of claim 1, the drinking mouth portion is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and a plurality of the contact protrusions are arranged, and the plurality of contact protrusions are arranged. The part is a beverage container that is arranged on both sides of the virtual center line along a virtual center line formed along the longitudinal direction of the drinking mouth part.

According to the configuration of the second aspect, the abutting protrusion is disposed along the moving direction of the hood portion, and the virtual protrusion is formed along the virtual center line formed along the longitudinal direction of the drinking mouth portion. It is arrange | positioned at the both sides of the centerline, and the said drinking mouth part of contact object is made into substantially cylindrical shape.
For this reason, a plurality of contact protrusions are arranged substantially in parallel on both sides of the virtual center line along the longitudinal direction with respect to the drinking mouth part having a substantially cylindrical shape.
For this reason, when the hood part moves, the position of the drinking mouth part is held by the abutment protrusion, so that the drinking mouth part is not distorted along with the movement, and the movement is the largest. The center line of the mouth part that tends to hinder can be avoided, and the movement of the hood part is not hindered by the distortion of the mouth part.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 3, in the configuration of claim 1 or claim 2, when the hood part is set to the covering position, the hood part corresponding to the tip side of the drinking mouth part is provided. The beverage container is characterized in that the abutting protrusion is formed from a distal end portion to a bent corresponding portion of the hood portion corresponding to a bent portion of the drinking mouth portion.

According to the configuration of claim 3, when the hood portion is in the covering position, the hood portion corresponding to the bent portion of the hood portion from the distal end portion of the hood portion corresponding to the distal end portion side of the throat portion. A contact protrusion is formed over the entire area.
For this reason, since the contact protrusion is formed on the distal end side of the hood portion, the contact protrusion is formed at the end where frictional resistance is most likely to occur.
That is, the front end side of the hood part is always in contact with the drinking mouth part from the covering position to the open position, and the bent drinking mouth part is the most affected by the force to return to the drinking state, Furthermore, there is a possibility that the bent portion of the drinking portion is drawn in immediately before entering the open position with the frictional resistance, so that the portion with the highest frictional resistance is obtained. Therefore, by forming the contact protrusion along the direction of movement up to the tip of the hood, along with the movement of the hood, the tip of the hood pulls in the tip of the mouthpiece and moves the hood. Can be prevented in advance.
Moreover, the contact protrusion is formed from the tip of the hood part to the bending corresponding part of the hood part corresponding to the bending part of the drinking mouth part. In other words, the bending-corresponding part in the hood part is less affected by the frictional resistance than the tip part side, but it is necessary to maintain the bending state of the drinking part reliably at the covering position, and the contact provided in the bending-corresponding part. The protrusion can keep the drinking portion bent.
Thus, since the contact protrusion is provided only from the drinking part to the contact part, the contact protrusion is arranged most efficiently.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 4, in the structure of any one of claims 1 to 3, the hood portion is formed at the bent corresponding portion of the hood portion when the hood portion is in the covering position. The beverage container is characterized in that the contact protrusion is configured so that a contact area with the bent portion of the drinking mouth portion is larger than the distal end side of the hood portion.

According to the configuration of claim 4, when the hood portion is set to the covering position, the contact protrusion is configured such that the contact area with the drinking mouth portion is larger in the bending corresponding portion than in the distal end portion side. Yes.
If the bent part of the drinking part is not reliably bent in the covered state, the beverage contained in the container body may leak out from the drinking part. Therefore, the bending-corresponding portion, which is a protrusion that abuts against the bending portion of the drinking mouth, can be configured to contact more strongly than the tip portion, so that the bending at the bending portion at the covering position can be reliably maintained. Leakage from the mouth can be prevented.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 5, in the configuration of any of claims 1 to 4, an operation part for a user to operate is formed outside the hood part. The operation part is a beverage container characterized in that it is formed in a central region of the hood part, which is a position separated from the tip part of the hood part.

According to the structure of Claim 5, the operation part is formed in the center part area | region of the hood part which is a position spaced apart from the front-end | tip part of a hood part.
Since the tip of the hood part is the part with the strongest frictional resistance with the drinking mouth part, an operation part is formed on the tip part side of the hood part, and when the user operates the operation part, the user's operation As a result, a force is applied in the direction to be suppressed by the finger, the frictional force is increased, and the movement of the hood portion may be hindered. In addition, when the operation part is formed on the front end side or rear end side of the outer surface of the hood part, it is difficult to place a finger on the operation part when it is placed in the covering position on the front end side and in the open position on the rear end side. It becomes difficult to do.
Therefore, in the present invention, the operation portion is formed in the central region of the hood portion, which is a position separated from the tip portion of the hood portion, and is operated without obstructing the movement of the hood portion by the force applied during the user's operation. It has become easy.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 6, in the configuration according to any one of claims 1 to 5, the drinking mouth support portion includes a ventilation portion and a drinking mouth mounting portion for mounting the drinking mouth portion. And the ventilation portion is formed in the vicinity of the bending portion of the drinking mouth portion accommodated in the hood portion in a bent state, and the drinking portion is provided between the ventilation portion and the drinking mouth mounting portion. The beverage container is characterized in that a bending guide for bending the mouth is formed.

According to the structure of Claim 6, since the ventilation part is formed in the drinking mouth support part, generation | occurrence | production of the negative pressure in a container main body accompanying the user of a drink container attracting | sucks the said drinking mouth part. It can be prevented in advance. In addition, if hot water is put into the container body, the inside of the container body becomes positive pressure and there is a risk that hot water may spout from the drinking mouth, but in the present invention, the generation of positive pressure is prevented by the ventilation section, so Can be prevented.
Further, the ventilation portion is formed in the vicinity of the bent portion covered by the drinking mouth portion accommodated in the hood portion in the bent state in the drinking mouth support portion.
For this reason, since a ventilation part is covered with a drinking mouth part at the time of carrying of a drink container, etc., it can prevent beforehand that the drink in a container main part leaks from a ventilation part.
Furthermore, a bending guide portion for bending the drinking mouth portion is formed between the ventilation portion and the drinking mouth mounting portion.
For this reason, since the mouth part is accurately bent at a predetermined position by the bending guide part, when the hood part is moved to the covering position, the mouth part covers the ventilation part with accuracy and bent. Accordingly, the beverage is disposed so as to be closed, and the leakage of the beverage from the ventilation portion can be more reliably prevented.

  Preferably, according to the invention of claim 7, in the structure according to any one of claims 1 to 6, a holding part for a user to place a finger on the lid part side of the container body is provided. It is a beverage container characterized by being made.

This makes it easier to operate the hood section while holding the container body.

  The present invention has an advantage of providing a beverage container that can smoothly move a hood portion that is in contact with a drinking mouth portion such as a straw.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The embodiments described below are preferred specific examples of the present invention, and thus various technically preferable limitations are given. However, the scope of the present invention is particularly limited in the following description. Unless otherwise stated, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

(About the overall configuration of the beverage container 100)
FIG.1 and FIG.2 is a schematic perspective view which shows the drink container 100 which concerns on the 1st Embodiment of this invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the beverage container 100 includes, for example, a bottle 120 that is a container body for storing a beverage such as juice. The bottle 120 has an opening on the upper surface side in the figure, and is configured to pour a beverage from this opening or to perform washing or the like.
Further, for example, a cap 130 as a lid is disposed on the opening side (upper surface side) of the bottle 120, and is detachably connected to the bottle 120 by fitting such as screwing. Since the cap 130 is provided with the packing 131, the liquid can be sealed more reliably.

Further, support shaft portions 160 a and 160 b are formed on both sides of the cap 130 so as to protrude in a direction away from the bottle 120. Handles 170a and 170b are rotatably disposed on the support shaft portions 160a and 160b.
That is, by rotating the handle 170a and the like, the position can be displaced to a use state in which the user can hold as shown in FIG. 1 or a storage state of the handle 170a and the like shown in FIG. It has become.
In particular, in the storage state shown in FIG. 2, since the handle 170a and the like are arranged along the bottle 120, the handle 170a and the like do not get in the bag even when the user puts the bag in the bag or the like. It has a configuration that can sometimes be made compact.

For example, the cap 130 has a straw support part 150 for disposing a drinking hole 140a, which is an drinking part made of an elastic body for drinking a beverage accommodated in the bottle 120. For this reason, the straw support part 150 is an example of a drinking mouth support part.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the straw drinking hole 140a is inserted from the inside of the bottle 120 into the drinking hole mounting part 154 that is a through hole of the straw support part 150, and is held by the widened seat plate part 140c. ing. Further, the straw drinking hole 140a is detachably connected to the separate straw tube 140b on the lower side of the seat plate portion 140c.

Moreover, the hood 110 which is a hood part for covering the straw drinking mouth 140a is arrange | positioned at the straw support part 150, for example.
Specifically, two movement guide portions 151 and 151 are arranged in a substantially semicircular shape on the straw support portion 150 in a substantially parallel manner, and are connected to the rotation shaft 110a. Therefore, the hood 110 rotates around the rotation shaft 110a and moves along the movement guides 151 and 151, thereby opening the covering position covering the straw drinking hole 140a or opening the straw drinking hole 140a. The position can be selectively arranged.

FIG. 1 shows a drinking state in which the hood 110 is arranged in the open position, and FIG. 2 shows a closed (portable) state in which the hood 110 is arranged in the covering position.
Further, for example, an operation knob 111 that is an operation unit for a user to operate is disposed outside the hood 110.
Therefore, the user can easily move the hood 110 by holding and operating the operation knob 111.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the drinking port 140a in the drinking state and the closed state in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the straw drinking hole 140a is made of an elastic material such as silicone rubber, thermoplastic elastomer, isoprene rubber, or the like, and therefore can be deformed and accommodated in the hood 110 in a bent state. It has become.
That is, when the hood 110 moves from the open position shown in FIG. 1 to the covered position shown in FIG. 2 (the left direction of the arrow R in FIG. 3), the hood tip located at the tip of the hood 110 shown in the figure. 112 abuts on the straw drinking hole 140a and begins to bend the straw drinking hole 140a. Further, when the hood 110 is further moved to the covering position side and is placed at the predetermined covering position shown in FIG. 3 with the hood 110 bent in the straw drinking mouth 140a, the straw drinking mouth 140a is bent and the hood 110 is bent. Will be housed inside.
Therefore, the straw drinking hole 140a is bent with the movement of the hood portion 110 and is held in its closed state. Therefore, the straw drinking hole 140a is blocked when the inner surfaces of the bent portions come into contact with each other. Beverage does not leak outside.

On the contrary, when the hood 110 arranged at the covering position in FIG. 3 starts to move toward the open position (right direction of the arrow R in FIG. 3), the straw drinking mouth 140a is restored from the bent state by its own elasticity. To start. When the open position is reached, as shown in FIG. 1, the straw drinking opening 140a is opened from the hood 110 and restored to the state before bending.
Therefore, since the inner surfaces of the straw drinking holes 140a are not in contact with each other and communicate with the bottle 120, a user such as an infant can drink the beverage in the bottle 120 by suction through the straw drinking holes 140a. Become.

(About the structure of the straw support part 150)
FIG. 4 is a schematic plan view of the beverage container 100 of FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the straw support part 150 is disposed so as to penetrate, for example, a ventilation hole 153 that is a ventilation part. The vent hole 153 shown in FIGS. 4 and 3 communicates with the inside of the bottle 120.
For this reason, when an infant or the like sucks the drinking port 140a and the inside of the bottle 120 becomes negative pressure, the outside air flows into the bottle 120, so that it is not difficult to suck the negative pressure and the user sucks it. It becomes the easy drink container 100.
Further, when hot water or the like is put in the bottle 120, the inside of the bottle 120 becomes positive pressure, and hot water or the like may be ejected to the outside through the straw drinking port 140a. In addition, since the pressure inside the bottle 120 is released to the outside, the generation of positive pressure can be prevented, so there is no possibility that hot water or the like is ejected.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the straw support part 150 is formed with a drinking mouth mounting port 154 that is a through hole for mounting the straw drinking port 140 a. In addition, for example, a folding plate 152 that is a bending guide portion for bending the straw drinking hole 140a is disposed in the straw support part 150 at a position between the drinking hole mounting opening 154 and the vent hole 153.
Moreover, the straw support part 150 is formed with a straw placement part 155 for placing a straw drinking hole 140a bent as shown in FIG.

Therefore, in order to move to the covering position, when the straw spout 140a disposed in the spout mounting opening 154 moves in contact with the hood 110, the folding plate 152 shown in FIGS. It is configured to be bent with high accuracy.
In other words, the elastic drinking port 140a is prevented from being bent in a distorted state such as being twisted, and the inner surface is joined and sealed at the bent position.
If the straw drinking hole 140a is distorted and bent and accommodated in the hood 110, when the hood 110 is moved toward the open position shown in FIG. May interfere.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, since the straw drinking hole 140a is accurately folded in a predetermined direction by the folding plate 152, the movement of the hood 110 is not hindered, so that the beverage container 100 is easy for the user to use.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, since the straw support portion 150 is formed with a straw placement portion 155, the straw support portion 150 is bent in a predetermined direction, that is, in the direction of the straw placement portion 155. The leading end side of the straw drinking hole 140a is arranged in the straw arrangement part 155 and is difficult to hinder movement when the hood 110 is operated.

The vent hole 153 is formed between the folded plate 152 and the straw arrangement portion 155. That is, when the straw drinking hole 140a is bent at the folding plate 152 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 and bent toward the straw arrangement portion 155, the straw drinking hole 140a is bent. A vent hole 153 is formed in the covering portion of the straw support portion 150 that is covered by the outer wall surface.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, when the straw drinking hole 140a is bent and the hood 110 is arranged at the covering position, the vent hole 153 is covered by the bent straw drinking hole 140a, and the straw drinking hole is formed. 140a functions as a packing, and the beverage in the bottle 120 can be prevented from leaking from the vent hole 153.
Moreover, since the straw drinking hole 140a is accurately folded by the folding plate 152, the straw drinking hole 140a is arranged so as to accurately cover the vent hole 153.
Further, on the inner side of the bottle 120 of the vent hole 153, the seat plate portion 140c of the straw drinking hole 140a is arranged through two parallel ribs 153a provided along both side edges of the opening of the vent hole 153. While ensuring the ventilation | gas_flowing from the ventilation hole 153, it prevents that a drink flows out to the exterior carelessly.

(About the configuration of the hood 110 etc.)
FIG. 5A is a schematic plan view showing the outer surface side of the hood 110 of FIG. 1, and FIG. 5B is a schematic bottom view showing the inner surface side of the hood 110 of FIG. FIG. 6 is a schematic perspective view showing the inner surface of the hood 110 of FIG.
As shown in FIG. 5B and FIG. 6, for example, two ribs 113, 113 which are protruding contact protrusions are formed on the straw support part 150 side of the hood 110, that is, on the inner side. The two ribs 113 are arranged so as to abut against the straw drinking mouth 140a when the hood 110 is arranged at the covering position as shown in FIG. That is, when the hood 110 moves from the open position of FIG. 1 to the covering position of FIG. 3, when the hood 110 is closed at the covering position, or moves from the covering position to the open position, It arrange | positions so that it may contact | abut.

Further, the two ribs 113, 113 are formed in a continuous line shape along the moving direction of the hood 110 shown in FIG. 1 and the like, that is, the left-right direction in FIG. That is, the rib 113 is not a dot shape, but has a streak formed by connecting protrusions.
By providing the rib 113 inside the hood 110 in this way, as shown in FIG. 3, when the hood 110 comes into contact with the straw drinking hole 140 a having elasticity and a high frictional resistance, the entire inside of the hood 110 is made to be a straw. Rather than abutting the drinking mouth 140a, two ribs 113, 113 arranged in a continuous streak pattern along the moving direction of the hood 110 abut on the straw drinking mouth 140a.
Therefore, the contact (contact) area between the two is reduced, the generation of frictional force can be reduced, and it is always in contact with the straw drinking hole 140a and the state does not change depending on the position of the hood 110. Since it becomes a state, the movement of the hood 110 becomes smooth, and the user can easily move the hood 110 unlike the conventional case.

5B, the two ribs 113, 113 of the hood 110 are arranged along the virtual center line C that is the center in the vertical direction in the figure of the hood 110, and The virtual center line C in FIG. 5B is formed along the direction in which the cylindrical drinking hole 140a in FIG. 3 is bent.
For this reason, when the hood 110 moves, the bending direction of the straw drinking hole 140a is regulated by the two ribs 113, 113, so that the straw drinking hole 140a is not distorted and is disposed in a cylindrical shape. Since the rib 113 is disposed at a position avoiding the virtual center line C that is the apex with which the drinking hole 140a comes into contact, the drinking hole 140a does not press strongly against the hood 110, so that the drinking hole 140a is distorted. The movement of the hood 110 is not hindered due to or deformation.

  Further, the two ribs 113, 113 are the hood front end 112 that is the front end in the moving direction to the covering position of the hood 110 corresponding to the front end side of the straw drinking opening 140 a when the hood 110 is in the covering position of FIG. 3. (See FIGS. 3 and 6) to the bent portion 114 (see FIG. 6) of the hood 110 corresponding to the bent portion 141a (see FIG. 3) of the drinking hole 140a.

In this way, the two ribs 113 are formed from the hood tip 112 of the hood 110. That is, when the hood 110 arranged at the covering position in FIG. 3 is moved to the open position side, the hood tip 112 of the hood 110, which corresponds to the portion that comes into contact with the tip of the straw drinking hole 140a, is always the original. It is in contact with the tip end side of the straw drinking hole 140a to be restored to its shape, and further, when the hood 110 moves from the covering position to the open position, it is always in contact with the straw drinking hole 140a. The greatest frictional resistance.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the ribs 113 are formed from the hood tip 112, which is the portion where the frictional force is most likely to occur.
Accordingly, since a large frictional force is not generated between the tip of the straw drinking mouth 140a or the bent portion 141a and the hood tip 112, the hood tip 112 moves toward the tip of the straw mouth 140a as the hood 110 moves. Is prevented from being pulled by the frictional resistance, and the movement of the hood 110 is hindered by preventing the straw drinking mouth 140a from entering the gap between the hood 110 and the straw support part 150 by being pulled by the frictional resistance. Can be prevented in advance.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the two ribs 113, 113 are formed from the hood tip portion 112 to the bending corresponding portion 114. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the rib 113 is provided up to the contact portion (the portion indicated by the arrow P in FIGS. 4 and 6) with the bent straw drinking hole 140 a, thereby reducing the frictional resistance. Moreover, since the bending corresponding portion 114 is disposed above the bent portion 141a of the straw drinking hole 140a and the vent hole 152, it can be pressed against the vent hole 152 while reliably maintaining the bent state of the straw drinking hole 140a. Therefore, the rib 113 is arranged most efficiently so that the sealing of the drinking hole 140a and the vent hole 152 can be ensured.
In the present embodiment, two ribs 113 are formed in a streak shape. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and three or more ribs may be formed. It is preferable to avoid C.

As shown in FIG. 3, the operation knob 111 is formed in a central region of the hood 110 that is a position away from the hood tip 112 of the hood 110.
If the operation knob 111 is disposed in the vicinity of the hood tip 112, the operator's force is applied to the hood tip 112. As described above, the hood tip portion 112 is a portion where the most frictional force is generated with the straw drinking hole 140a. For this reason, if an operator's force is further applied to this portion, a larger frictional force is generated, which becomes a factor that hinders the movement of the hood 110.
Further, when the operation knob 111 is arranged on the hood front end 112 or the rear end side, when a finger is placed on the operation knob 111 as will be described later, the hood front end 112 is in the covering position, the hood rear end side. Then, in the state in the open position, it is difficult to place a finger and it is difficult to perform an operation.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the operation knob 111 to which the operator's force is applied is formed in the central region, which is a position separated from the hood front end portion 1112 and the rear end portion, so that the user can easily place the finger, It is configured so that the movement of the hood is not hindered by the force applied at the time.

As shown in FIG. 4, for example, a support portion side protrusion 156 that is a support portion side protrusion is formed on the upper surface of the straw support portion 150. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, for example, open position protrusions 115 and 115 and covering position protrusions 116 and 116 that are hood part side protrusions are formed inside the hood 110.
The opening position projections 115 and the covering position projections 116 are configured to be able to engage with the support portion side projections 156 corresponding to the movement of the hood 110.

That is, when the opening position protrusion 115 in FIG. 6 engages with the support portion side protrusion 156 in FIG. 4, the opening position protrusion 115 gets over the support portion side protrusion 156 and moves in the moving direction of the support portion protrusion 156. Since it is located on the back side (right side in FIG. 3), the hood tip 112 is arranged so as to expose the straw drinking hole 140a, so that the hood 110 is in an open position and is inadvertently moved to the covering position. The
