The back side locking claw 34 </ b> A includes a contact portion 36 that contacts the back side locking projection 33 and a support bar portion 37 that supports the contact portion 36. The abutting portion 36 has a surface facing toward the near side as a perpendicular abutting surface and abuts against the locking projection 33 to support the top flange 5 so as not to be displaced toward the near side. The support bar portion 37 is formed to extend toward the container body 2 and toward the back side.

手前側係止用爪３４Ｂは、手前側の係止用突起３３に当接する当接部３８と、この当接部３８を支持する支持棒部３９とから構成されている。当接部３８は、手前側に向いた面が垂直な当接面となって係止用突起３３に当接し、係止用爪３４Ｂを手前側へずれないように支持する。支持棒部３９は、容器本体２側へ、かつ手前側へ向けて延出させて形成されている。この支持棒部３９によって、当接部３８が、支持棒部３９の基端部より容器本体２側に設けられている。これにより、トップフランジ５に対して抜け落ちる方向に力が加わった場合に、当接部３８が係止用突起３３に深く食い込む方向に押圧されることになる。これにより、衝撃等により強い力が加わっても、当接部３８が係止用突起３３から外れるのを確実に防止している。これにより、支持棒部３９が突っ張ってトップフランジ５の抜けを抑える（図８，９参照）。   The near-side locking claw 34B includes a contact portion 38 that contacts the front-side locking protrusion 33 and a support bar portion 39 that supports the contact portion 38. The abutting portion 38 has a surface facing toward the near side as a perpendicular abutting surface, abuts against the locking projection 33, and supports the locking claw 34B so as not to be shifted toward the near side. The support bar portion 39 is formed to extend toward the container body 2 and toward the near side. With the support bar portion 39, the contact portion 38 is provided on the container body 2 side from the base end portion of the support bar portion 39. As a result, when a force is applied to the top flange 5 in the direction of falling off, the contact portion 38 is pressed in a direction of deeply biting into the locking projection 33. Thereby, even if a strong force is applied due to an impact or the like, the contact portion 38 is reliably prevented from coming off from the locking projection 33. As a result, the support bar 39 is stretched to prevent the top flange 5 from coming off (see FIGS. 8 and 9).
