Here, FIG. 1 of the attached drawings is a front view of a state where it is attached to a can container, FIG. 2 is a front view of an exploded state, FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the holder, and FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the holder showing a deformed state. 5 is a plan view of the holder, FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged longitudinal sectional view showing a connection state of the holder and the cover, FIG. 7 is a bottom view showing another embodiment of the holder, and FIG. 8 shows another embodiment of the holder. It is a bottom view.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the gift case 1 is provided on the placement plate 3 for placing the gift 2, on the lower side of the placement plate 3, and can be fitted to the end of the can container 4. The upper end portion of the can container 4 is formed integrally with the fitting cylinder portion 5 having the lower end opened and the upper tube portion 6 formed on the upper side of the mounting plate 3 and having the upper end opened. A holder 8 provided with two locking projections 7, 7 that can be locked to the projecting edge 4 a, and an upper cylinder portion 6 inside the holder 8 are detachably connected to each other, and the prize 2 is placed between the holder 8 and the holder 8. It is composed of a transparent cover 9 that forms an internal space for housing.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the holder 8 is formed of plastic having moderate elasticity, and the mounting plate 3 has eight notches 10 extending radially from the center toward the periphery. It is formed. Thus, the holder 8 has moderate elasticity and the mounting plate 3 is provided with the notches 10..., So that the holder 8 is shifted by 90 ° from the two positions corresponding to the locking projections 7 and 7. When a part corresponding to the two mounting plates 3 facing each other is gripped by hand (see arrows a and a in FIG. 4), a predetermined notch 10... While the distance between the locking projections 7 is increased, the original circular shape is restored when the gripping force is removed. When the holder 8 is attached to the end of the can container 4, if the holder 8 is deformed as described above and fitted to the end of the can container 4, the distance between the pair of locking projections 7 and 7 is increased. Therefore, the fitting cylinder portion 5 of the holder 8 exceeds the outside of the protruding edge 4 a of the can container 4. If the hand is released here to return to the original shape, the locking projections 7 and 7 are locked to the protruding edge 4a. The locking state between the locking projections 7, 7 of the portion 5 and the protruding edge 4a of the can container 4 is released, and the holder 8 can be separated.

  As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 6, the cover 9 is made of a transparent plastic having an appropriate elasticity and is substantially bowl-shaped with one end opened, and its outer periphery is more than the inner periphery of the upper cylindrical portion 6. It is formed slightly smaller. In addition, an engagement convex portion that engages with an engagement concave portion 11, 11 provided on the inner surface of the upper cylindrical portion 6 of the holder 8, at a portion opposed to the open end edge portion of the cover 9 across the center. 12 and 12 are provided. The engagement convex portions 12 and 12 are provided with notches 12a and 12a on both sides (see FIG. 2), thereby providing elasticity in the contact and separation directions with respect to the engagement concave portions 11 and 11. Since the cover 9 has appropriate elasticity, when it is attached to or removed from the holder 8, the cover 9 is inserted into the upper cylindrical portion 6, and the portions corresponding to the engaging convex portions 12, 12 are indicated. In this case, the distance between the engaging convex portions 12 and 12 is shortened and the engaging concave portions 11 and 11 are engaged or disengaged.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the prize 2 is a minicar 2b running on a muddy mountain model 2a simulating a muddy mountain, which can be seen from the outside through the cover 9, and is purchased by the purchaser. It is eye-catching. The minicar 2b is fixed to the muddy mountain model 2a. Moreover, in FIG. 2, the code | symbol 13 is arrange | positioned under the said muddy mountain model 2a, and the underlay for mounting the muddy mountain model 2a on the mounting board 3 in the stable state.

  Next, the operation of attaching the premium case 1 configured as described above to the end of the can container 4 will be described. First, in a state where the holder 8 is deformed so that the distance between the pair of locking projections 7 and 7 is increased, the holder 8 is fitted to the end portion of the can container 4 containing beverage, and the fitting cylinder portion 5 of the holder 8 is fitted. When the protruding edge 4a of the can container 4 is exceeded, the hand is released to restore the deformation. In this return state, the locking projections 7 and 7 are securely locked to the protruding edge 4 a, so that the holder 8 does not fall off from the end of the can container 4. And the can container 4 with a drink which is a can drink which attached the prize case 1 containing the prize 4 like FIG. 1 is arranged in a shop and sold.

  On the other hand, at the store, a buyer who has purchased a can drink because of the desire to purchase due to the presence of the minicar 2b, which is the prize 2 in the prize case 1, purchases the holder 8 in the same manner as when the holder 8 is attached in the attachment operation. When the two protrusions that are 90 ° apart from the locking protrusions 7 and 7 are grasped and deformed so that the distance between the pair of locking protrusions 7 and 7 is increased, the locking protrusion 7 7 and the protruding edge 4a of the can container 4 are released, and the prize case 1 can be separated from the can container 4. Then, the purchaser can appreciate and decorate the prize 2 separated from the can container 4 in the prize case 1 or with the cover 9 removed and the minicar 2b taken out. The removal of the cover 9 is similar to the attaching operation, in which the portion corresponding to the engaging convex portions 12 and 12 of the cover 9 is deformed by crushing with a finger, and the space between the engaging convex portions 12 and 12 is reduced. When the cover 9 is pulled away from the holder 8 in this state, the engagement state between the engagement concave portions 11 and 11 and the engagement convex portions 12 and 12 is released, and the prize 2 can be taken out from the exposed placement plate 3.
