Description

本発明は飲料カップに使用する蓋に関するもので、さらに詳しくは、蓋をかぶせたままでカップ内飲料を飲用できるように蓋に飲み口孔を設けた飲料カップ用蓋に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a lid used for a beverage cup, and more particularly to a lid for a beverage cup provided with a drinking hole in the lid so that the beverage in the cup can be consumed with the lid on.

近年、液体飲料の包装容器として各種形態のものが使用されている。例えば、コーヒー飲料の場合は、飲料カップに蓋をかぶせたままで蓋に設けた孔からストローを挿入し、中のコーヒー飲料を飲む形態のもの、あるいは、飲料カップに蓋をかぶせたままで、蓋に設けた飲み口孔から中のコーヒー飲料を直接飲む形態のものなどがある。後者の形態のものに使用する蓋が種々提案されている（例えば、特許文献１、特許文献２参照。）。
意匠登録第１２６２１５６号公報特開２００６−１６０３６６号公報 In recent years, various types of packaging containers for liquid beverages have been used. For example, in the case of a coffee beverage, the beverage cup is covered with a lid and a straw is inserted through the hole provided in the lid, and the coffee beverage inside is drinkable, or the beverage cup is still covered with the lid, There is a form in which the coffee drink inside is directly taken from the drinking hole provided. Various lids used for the latter type have been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2).
