Description

本発明は、開口部を有する容器本体と、容器本体の開口部を封鎖する封鎖体とが、両者の境界に形成される破断容易な弱化部を介して一体的に形成された、所謂ツイストオフ容器またはスナップオフ容器と呼ばれる破断開口容易な容器に関し、特に、容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーの照射により弱化部が形成されて、容器本体の底部に開口された充填口から内容物が充填されるようなポリエステル樹脂製の破断開口容易な容器、および、そのような容器の製造方法に関する。   The present invention is a so-called twist-off in which a container main body having an opening and a sealing body that seals the opening of the container main body are integrally formed via a weakly breakable portion formed at the boundary between the two. With regard to a container that is easy to break open, called a container or a snap-off container, in particular, a weakened part is formed by laser irradiation at the boundary between the container main body and the sealed body, and the contents are transferred from the filling port opened at the bottom of the container main body. The present invention relates to a container made of polyester resin that can be easily opened by breakage, and a method for manufacturing such a container.

内容物が充填・密封される合成樹脂製の容器について、容器の底部に開口された充填口から内容物を充填した後、該充填口を密封するということは従来から広く行なわれており、例えば、下記の特許文献1には、パリソンからブロー成形される合成樹脂製の容器について、また、下記の特許文献2には、ツイストオフ口部を備えた合成樹脂製の少容量容器(チューブ容器)について、それぞれ容器の底部に開口された充填口に関する技術が開示されている。   For synthetic resin containers filled and sealed with contents, it has been widely practiced to seal the filling port after filling the contents from the filling port opened at the bottom of the container, for example, The following Patent Document 1 discloses a synthetic resin container blow-molded from a parison, and the following Patent Document 2 includes a synthetic resin small capacity container (tube container) having a twist-off opening. For each, a technique relating to a filling port opened at the bottom of the container is disclosed.

一方、所謂ツイストオフ(或いはスナップオフ)による破断開口容易な容器、即ち、容器本体と封鎖体とが破断容易な弱化部を介して一体的に形成されて、封鎖体を摘んで捻る(或いは封鎖体を押し倒す)ことで、弱化部を破断して容器本体から封鎖体を切り離すことにより、容器本体の開口部を開口させるような合成樹脂製の容器について、ポリエステル樹脂からなる容器の容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーを照射することで破断容易な弱化部を形成する、ということが本出願人の出願に係る下記の特許文献3により従来公知となっている。

On the other hand, a container that can be easily opened by so-called twist-off (or snap-off), that is, a container body and a sealing body are integrally formed via a weakened portion that is easily broken, and the sealing body is picked and twisted (or sealed). For a synthetic resin container that opens the opening of the container body by breaking the weakened part and separating the sealed body from the container body by pushing the body down) It has been conventionally known from the following Patent Document 3 relating to the application of the present applicant that a weakened portion that can be easily broken is formed by irradiating a laser beam on the boundary with the body.
Japanese Patent Publication No.62-30019 JP 2002-321750 A Japanese Patent No. 3929065

ところで、破断開口容易な容器をポリエステル樹脂製にした場合、オレフィン樹脂の場合と比べて、耐内容性に優れているものの、樹脂にねばりがあって容易に引き裂き難く、封鎖体を摘んで弱化部を破断しようとしても、糸を引くように容易に破断できないことになるが、上記の特許文献3に開示されたものでは、容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーの照射により弱化部を形成していることで、ポリエステル樹脂製であっても、弱化部(被破断部)での破断が容易なものとなって、容器の開封を容易に行なうことができる。   By the way, when the container that is easy to break open is made of polyester resin, it is superior in content resistance compared to the case of olefin resin, but the resin is sticky and difficult to tear, and the weakened part is picked up by the sequestered body. However, in the case disclosed in Patent Document 3, a weakened portion is formed by laser irradiation at the boundary between the container body and the sealed body. Therefore, even if it is made of polyester resin, it becomes easy to break at the weakened portion (breakable portion), and the container can be opened easily.

そのような特許文献3により従来公知の破断開口容易な容器では、容器内への内容物の充填・密封について、文献中には詳しく記載していないが、パリソンから容器を成形する際に、例えば、先ず、頸部の下部から下方の容器本体の部分を成形してから、頸部の上端開口部から内容物を充填した後で、頸部の上部から上方を封鎖体に成形することにより、内容物が充填された容器本体を封鎖体によって密封した状態としている。しかしながら、そのような方法では、容器本体と封鎖体とを別々に成形しなければならず、一方、容器の成形工程と内容物の充填・密封工程とが一体不可分となることで、容器の製造と内容物の充填・密封とを分けて行なうことができない。   In such a conventional container with easy break opening according to Patent Document 3, filling / sealing of the contents in the container is not described in detail in the literature, but when forming a container from a parison, for example, First, after molding the lower part of the container body from the lower part of the neck, after filling the contents from the upper end opening of the neck, by molding the upper part from the upper part of the neck to the sealed body, The container body filled with the contents is sealed with a sealing body. However, in such a method, the container main body and the sealed body must be separately molded, while the container molding process and the contents filling / sealing process become inseparable, thereby producing the container. And filling and sealing of contents cannot be performed separately.

この点について、ポリエステル樹脂製の破断開口容易な容器についても、上記の特許文献1,2に開示されているように、容器本体の底部に充填口を設けることにより、先ず、容器本体と封鎖体とを同時に成形した後で、容器本体の底部に開口させた充填口により内容物を充填・密封するということが考えられるが、上記の特許文献1に記載されたような技術は、ヒートシールし易いオレフィン樹脂からなるチューブ容器に関するもので、開口端同士を合掌させてヒートシールするものであるため、自立性を必要とする容器には転用することができない。   With respect to this point, as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 described above, a container made of a polyester resin that is easy to break open is first provided with a filling port at the bottom of the container body. Are simultaneously filled and sealed with a filling port opened at the bottom of the container body. However, the technique described in Patent Document 1 described above is heat-sealed. Since it relates to a tube container made of an easy olefin resin and heat seals with the open ends held together, it cannot be diverted to a container that requires self-supporting properties.

一方、上記の特許文献2に記載されたような技術については、自立性のある容器に関するものではあるが、容器の底部を自立性に適した構造とするために、先ず、充填口となる部分を予熱軟化して平坦化してから、錐状加熱針により充填口をラッパ状に押し広げて、充填ノズルにより充填口から内容物を充填した後で、加熱した成形型で充填口を先すぼみとし、この先すぼみの充填口を加熱しながら圧潰してシールしてから、最後に冷却型でさらに圧潰して急冷する、というように多くの加熱工程を必要とするため、処理時間がどうしても長くなると共に、ポリエステル樹脂製の容器に適用した場合には、多くの加熱工程によりポリエステル樹脂が白化を起こす虞が有って、白化した部分により異物が混入したものと勘違いされるような問題を生じることとなる。   On the other hand, the technique described in the above-mentioned Patent Document 2 relates to a self-supporting container, but in order to make the bottom of the container suitable for self-supporting, first, a portion that becomes a filling port After preheating softening and flattening, the filling port is spread out in a trumpet shape with a cone-shaped heating needle, and after filling the contents from the filling port with a filling nozzle, the filling port is made into a dent with a heated mold. Since the filling port of the tip squeeze is heated and crushed and sealed, and then finally, it is further crushed by a cooling mold and rapidly cooled, so that the processing time is inevitably long. When applied to a container made of polyester resin, there is a possibility that the polyester resin may whiten due to many heating processes, and it is misunderstood that foreign matter is mixed in by the whitened part So that the resulting.

本発明は、上記のような問題の解消を課題とするものであり、具体的には、レーザーの照射により弱化部が形成されるポリエステル樹脂製の破断開口容易な容器について、内容物を充填・密封するための充填口を、樹脂を白化させることなく、容器が安定して自立できるように、容器本体の底部に形成するということを課題とするものである。   An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems. Specifically, the container is made of a polyester resin in which a weakened portion is formed by laser irradiation, and the container is easy to break open. An object of the present invention is to form a filling port for sealing at the bottom of the container body so that the container can stably stand by itself without whitening the resin.

本発明は、上記のような課題を解決するために、開口部を有する容器本体と、容器本体の開口部を封鎖する封鎖体とが、両者の外面形状が凹設された金型を使用したブロー成形によりパリソンから同時に一体成形され、容器本体と封鎖体との境界に、破断容易な弱化部として、レーザーの照射により溝とその周辺で容器内面にまで達する非結晶化部が形成された、ポリエステル樹脂からなる破断開口容易な容器において、周辺部分が接地面となる容器本体の底部で、内容物を充填するための充填口が、接地面よりも容器内方に凹んだ底部の中央部分に形成され、該充填口の先端面が、接地面と略平行な平面に形成され、該充填口の先端面にシート状の蓋板が貼着されて、容器を正立させた状態で、充填口の先端面に貼着された蓋板が接地しないようになっていることを特徴とするものである。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention uses a mold in which a container body having an opening and a sealing body that seals the opening of the container body are recessed in both outer surface shapes. Simultaneously molded from the parison by blow molding, a non-crystallized part reaching the inner surface of the container at the groove and its periphery was formed by laser irradiation as a weakened easily breakable part at the boundary between the container body and the sealed body, In a container made of polyester resin that is easy to break open, the peripheral part is the bottom of the container body, which is the grounding surface, and the filling port for filling the contents is in the central part of the bottom that is recessed inward of the container from the grounding surface. The filling port is formed so that the front end surface of the filling port is formed in a plane substantially parallel to the grounding surface, and a sheet-like lid plate is attached to the front end surface of the filling port so that the container is upright. Do not ground the lid attached to the tip of the mouth. It has become so is characterized in.

上記のような破断開口容易な容器を製造する場合に、円筒形パリソンの内部にエアー吹き込み用のブローピンを配置し、容器本体と封鎖体の外面形状が凹設された金型にパリソンとブローピンを挟んでブローピンからエアーを吹き込むことで、パリソンを容器の形状に成形して、容器本体の底部でブローピンの周りを剪断することにより、先端面が底部の接地面と略平行な平面となるように充填口を開口してから、金型から取り出した容器を封鎖体の側を下にした倒立状態でホルダー内に収容して、充填口から内容物を容器内に充填し、充填口の先端面にシート状の蓋板を貼着することで、容器の充填・密封を行なった後、ホルダーから取り出した容器を封鎖体の側を上にした正立状態として、容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーを照射して弱化部を形成する、という方法が適用できる。   When manufacturing a container with an easy break opening as described above, a blow pin for blowing air is arranged inside a cylindrical parison, and the parison and blow pin are placed in a mold in which the outer shape of the container body and the sealing body is recessed. By blowing air from the blow pin, the parison is shaped into a container shape and sheared around the blow pin at the bottom of the container body so that the tip surface becomes a plane substantially parallel to the ground contact surface at the bottom. After opening the filling port, the container taken out from the mold is accommodated in the holder in an inverted state with the side of the sealing body down, the contents are filled into the container from the filling port, and the front end surface of the filling port After filling and sealing the container by sticking a sheet-like lid plate to the container, the container taken out of the holder is placed in an upright state with the side of the sealing body facing up, and the boundary between the container body and the sealing body Irradiate the laser Forming a weakened portion can process that is applied.

また、円筒形パリソンの内部にエアー吹き込み用のブローピンを配置し、容器本体と封鎖体の外面形状が凹設された金型にパリソンとブローピンを挟んでブローピンからエアーを吹き込むことで、パリソンを容器の形状に成形して、容器本体の底部でブローピンの周りを剪断することにより、先端面が底部の接地面と略平行な平面となるように充填口を開口してから、金型から取り出した容器を封鎖体の側を上にした正立状態として、容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーを照射して弱化部を形成した後、封鎖体を覆うようなキャップを容器本体に冠着し、キャップが下となるように容器を倒立状態として、充填口から内容物を容器内に充填し、充填口の先端面にシート状の蓋板を貼着することで、容器の充填・密封を行なう、という方法も適用できる。   In addition, a blow pin for blowing air is arranged inside the cylindrical parison, and the parison is placed in the container by blowing air from the blow pin with the parison and blow pin sandwiched in a mold in which the outer shape of the container body and the sealing body is recessed. After opening the filling port so that the tip surface becomes a plane substantially parallel to the grounding surface of the bottom by shearing around the blow pin at the bottom of the container body, the container body was taken out from the mold. After the container is in an upright state with the side of the sealing body facing up, a weakened part is formed by irradiating the boundary between the container body and the sealing body to form a weakened portion, and then a cap that covers the sealing body is attached to the container body. The container is turned upside down so that the cap is at the bottom, the contents are filled into the container from the filling port, and a sheet-like cover plate is attached to the front end surface of the filling port, thereby filling and sealing the container. The method of doing You can use.

さらに、上記のような破断開口容易な容器の製造方法において、容器本体と封鎖体との境界にレーザーを照射して弱化部を形成する際には、レーザーの照射に対して相対的に容器を6回転以上回転させている間に、1.41〜2.02J/mmのエネルギー密度でレーザーを照射することにより、弱化部となる溝を形成し、且つ、この溝とその周辺の部分で、樹脂の密度を変化させることなく極限粘度を低下させると共に、当該部分での極限粘度の低下量の最大値と最小値の比が1.5以下となるようにするのが好ましい。 Furthermore, in the above-described method for manufacturing a container with an easy break opening, when the weakened portion is formed by irradiating the boundary between the container main body and the sealed body to form the weakened portion, the container is relatively disposed with respect to the laser irradiation. While rotating at least 6 rotations, a laser beam is irradiated at an energy density of 1.41 to 2.02 J / mm 3 to form a weakened groove, and at the groove and its surroundings. It is preferable that the intrinsic viscosity is lowered without changing the resin density, and that the ratio between the maximum value and the minimum value of the reduced amount of the intrinsic viscosity in the portion is 1.5 or less.

上記のような本発明の破断開口容易な容器によれば、ポリエステル樹脂製の容器で、容器本体と封鎖体との境界に形成される破断容易な弱化部として、レーザーの照射により溝とその周辺で容器内面にまで達する非結晶化部を形成していることで、容器を開封する際に弱化部を容易に破断することができる。また、シート状の蓋板の貼着により充填口を密封していることで、密封時に充填口を変形させるための多くの加熱工程によりポリエステル樹脂を白化させるようなことはない。さらに、容器を正立させた状態で、充填口の先端面に貼着された蓋板が接地しないことから、容器を安定的に自立させることができる。   According to the container with easy opening of breakage of the present invention as described above, the groove and its periphery by laser irradiation as a weakly breakable part formed at the boundary between the container main body and the sealed body in a container made of polyester resin. By forming the non-crystallized portion reaching the inner surface of the container, the weakened portion can be easily broken when the container is opened. Further, since the filling port is sealed by sticking the sheet-like lid plate, the polyester resin is not whitened by many heating processes for deforming the filling port at the time of sealing. Furthermore, since the cover plate attached to the front end surface of the filling port does not come into contact with the container in an upright state, the container can be stably made to stand on its own.

レーザーの照射により弱化部が形成されるポリエステル樹脂製の破断開口容易な容器について、内容物を充填・密封するための充填口を、樹脂を白化させることなく、容器が安定して自立できるように、容器本体の底部に形成するという目的を、最良の形態として以下の実施例に具体的に示すように、開口部を有する容器本体と、容器本体の開口部を封鎖する封鎖体とが、両者の外面形状が凹設された金型を使用したブロー成形によりパリソンから同時に一体成形され、容器本体と封鎖体との境界に、破断容易な弱化部として、レーザーの照射により溝とその周辺で容器内面にまで達する非結晶化部が形成された、ポリエステル樹脂からなる破断開口容易な容器において、周辺部分が接地面となる容器本体の底部で、内容物を充填するための充填口を、接地面よりも容器内方に凹んだ底部の中央部分に形成し、該充填口の先端面を、接地面と略平行な平面に形成し、該充填口の先端面にシート状の蓋板を貼着して、容器を正立させた状態で、充填口の先端面に貼着された蓋板が接地しないようにする、ということで実現した。   A container made of polyester resin that has weakened parts formed by weakening by laser irradiation. Easy filling and sealing for filling and sealing the contents without whitening the resin. The purpose of forming at the bottom of the container body is specifically shown in the following examples as the best mode, and the container body having an opening and the sealing body for sealing the opening of the container body are both Blow molding using a mold with a concave outer surface shape is formed from a parison at the same time, and at the boundary between the container main body and the sealed body, as a weakened part that can be easily broken, the container is exposed to the groove and its surroundings by laser irradiation. In a container with a non-crystallized portion that reaches to the inner surface and made of polyester resin that is easy to break open, for filling the contents at the bottom of the container body with the peripheral portion serving as the ground surface The filling port is formed in the center part of the bottom part recessed inward of the container from the grounding surface, the tip surface of the filling port is formed in a plane substantially parallel to the grounding surface, and the sheet-like shape is formed on the tip surface of the filling port This was realized by sticking the lid plate of the container and keeping the container upright so that the lid plate stuck to the front end surface of the filling port was not grounded.

上記のようなポリエステル樹脂からなる本発明の破断開口容易な容器の実施例について以下に説明する。なお、以下の実施例に示す容器の材料となるポリエステル樹脂については、ポリエチレンテレフタレートにポリエチレンナフタレートを12.5重量%以上の割合で混合させた樹脂であって、果汁飲料などpH4.0の内容物の低温加熱殺菌(例えば85℃の温度に30分以上)にも対応できる耐熱性を有するものである。   Examples of the container having the polyester resin as described above, which is easy to break open, according to the present invention will be described below. In addition, about the polyester resin used as the material of the container shown in the following examples, it is a resin in which polyethylene naphthalate is mixed with polyethylene terephthalate at a ratio of 12.5% by weight or more, and the content of pH 4.0 such as fruit juice drinks. It has heat resistance that can cope with low-temperature heat sterilization (for example, a temperature of 85 ° C. for 30 minutes or more).

図1(A),(B)は、本発明の破断開口容易な容器の一実施例を示すものである。本実施例(実施例1)の容器1では、容器本体2と封鎖体3とが一体的に形成されて、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界に破断容易な弱化部4が形成されている。容器本体2と封鎖体3とは、両者の外面形状が凹設された金型を使用したブロー成形(ダイレクトブロー成形)によりパリソンから同時に一体成形されたものであり、また、弱化部4は、レーザー銃からのレーザー(炭酸ガスレーザー等)の照射により形成されたものである。   1A and 1B show an embodiment of a container that can be easily opened at break according to the present invention. In the container 1 of this example (Example 1), the container body 2 and the sealing body 3 are integrally formed, and the weakened portion 4 that is easily broken is formed at the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealing body 3. Yes. The container main body 2 and the sealing body 3 are integrally molded from a parison by blow molding (direct blow molding) using a mold in which the outer surface shapes of both are recessed, and the weakened portion 4 It is formed by irradiation of a laser (a carbon dioxide laser or the like) from a laser gun.

本実施例の容器1の容器本体2では、底部21から上方に楕円筒状の胴部22が形成され、胴部22の上方には緩やかな傾斜の肩部23が形成され、肩部23の中央から上方に突出するように円筒状の頸部24が形成され、頸部24から上方に段部を介して円錐台形の口部25が形成されている。   In the container main body 2 of the container 1 of the present embodiment, an elliptical cylindrical body portion 22 is formed upward from the bottom portion 21, and a gently inclined shoulder portion 23 is formed above the body portion 22. A cylindrical neck portion 24 is formed so as to protrude upward from the center, and a frustoconical mouth portion 25 is formed upward from the neck portion 24 via a stepped portion.

また、容器本体2の胴部22の上端(胴部22と肩部23の間)には、キャップを係合するための凹溝状の係合部26が全周にわたって環状に形成されており、この係合部26によって、図2に示すように、封鎖体3(および容器本体2の胴部22よりも上方)の部分を覆うようなキャップ5が、スナップ係合によって着脱自在な状態で、容器本体2に対して冠着されることとなる。   Further, a concave groove-like engaging portion 26 for engaging the cap is formed in an annular shape at the upper end of the body portion 22 of the container body 2 (between the body portion 22 and the shoulder portion 23). As shown in FIG. 2, the cap 5 that covers the portion of the sealing body 3 (and above the body portion 22 of the container body 2) is detachable by snap engagement. The container body 2 will be crowned.

容器1の封鎖体3では、容器本体2の開口部を封鎖する中空の釣鐘形部31と、容器を開封する際の摘み部分となる平板部32とが、パリソンの直径とほぼ同じ幅の平板部32が釣鐘形部31を上方から跨ぐように一体的に形成されている。この釣鐘形部31の下端は、平板部32の下端よりも少し下方に位置している。   In the sealed body 3 of the container 1, a hollow bell-shaped portion 31 that seals the opening of the container body 2 and a flat plate portion 32 that becomes a knob portion when the container is opened are flat plates having the same width as the diameter of the parison. The part 32 is integrally formed so as to straddle the bell-shaped part 31 from above. The lower end of the bell-shaped portion 31 is located slightly below the lower end of the flat plate portion 32.

そのような容器本体2と封鎖体3とが一体的に形成された容器1に対して、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界に、即ち、容器本体2の口部25の平坦な水平面に形成された上端部分で、封鎖体3の釣鐘形部31の下端と繋がる箇所に、破断容易な弱化部4が、上方から見て円環状となるように形成されている。この弱化部4は、レーザーの照射により溝とその周辺で容器内面にまで達する非結晶化部が形成されたものである。   With respect to the container 1 in which the container body 2 and the sealing body 3 are integrally formed, at the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealing body 3, that is, on the flat horizontal surface of the mouth portion 25 of the container body 2. The weakened portion 4 that is easily broken is formed in an annular shape when viewed from above at a location where the formed upper end portion is connected to the lower end of the bell-shaped portion 31 of the sealing body 3. The weakened portion 4 is formed by forming a non-crystallized portion that reaches the inner surface of the container at and around the groove by laser irradiation.

上記のように容器本体2と封鎖体3とが弱化部4を介して一体的に形成されたポリエステル樹脂製容器1では、封鎖体3の平板部32を指先で摘んで捻ったり、封鎖体3の平板部32を押し倒したりすることで、容器本体2と封鎖体3とを連結する弱化部4が破断され、それによって、容器本体2から封鎖体3が切り離されることで、封鎖体3の釣鐘形部31によって閉鎖されていた容器本体2の口部25が開口されることとなる。   In the polyester resin container 1 in which the container main body 2 and the sealing body 3 are integrally formed through the weakened portion 4 as described above, the flat plate portion 32 of the sealing body 3 is pinched with a fingertip or twisted, or the sealing body 3 The weakened portion 4 that connects the container main body 2 and the sealing body 3 is broken by pushing down the flat plate portion 32 of the container, and the sealing body 3 is separated from the container main body 2, thereby the bell of the sealing body 3. The mouth portion 25 of the container body 2 that has been closed by the shape portion 31 is opened.

ところで、上記のような本実施例の破断開口容易な容器1では、容器内に内容物を充填・密封するための充填口6が、容器本体2の底部21に形成されている。すなわち、図3に示すように、容器本体2の底部21は、周辺部分が接地面21aとなるように、中央に向かって容器内方に傾斜する状態で凹んでいて、内容物を充填するための充填口6は、底部2で接地面21aよりも容器内方(上方)に凹んだ中央部分に形成されている。   By the way, in the container 1 with easy break opening of the present embodiment as described above, the filling port 6 for filling and sealing the contents in the container is formed in the bottom 21 of the container body 2. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the bottom portion 21 of the container body 2 is recessed in a state in which it is inclined inward toward the center so that the peripheral portion becomes the ground contact surface 21a, and is filled with the contents. The filling port 6 is formed in the center portion of the bottom 2 that is recessed inward (upward) of the container from the ground surface 21a.

この充填口6の先端面(下端面)は、底部2の接地面21aと略平行な平面に形成されており、容器内に内容物が充填された状態で、充填口6の先端面には、ヒートシール法などでの接着によりシート状の蓋板7が貼着されていて、このシート状の蓋板7により充填口6は密封されている。充填口6の先端面に貼着されたシート状の蓋板7は、容器1を正立させた状態で、接地しない(底部21の接地面21aよりも上方に位置する)ようになっており、それによって、容器1は、底部2の接地面21aで安定的に正立できるようになっている。   The front end surface (lower end surface) of the filling port 6 is formed in a plane substantially parallel to the ground contact surface 21a of the bottom 2, and the front end surface of the filling port 6 is filled with contents in the container. The sheet-like lid plate 7 is adhered by adhesion using a heat seal method or the like, and the filling port 6 is sealed by the sheet-like lid plate 7. The sheet-like lid plate 7 adhered to the front end surface of the filling port 6 is not grounded (positioned above the ground surface 21a of the bottom portion 21) in a state where the container 1 is upright. Thereby, the container 1 can be stably erected on the ground contact surface 21a of the bottom 2.

なお、シート状の蓋板7それ自体については、カップ容器の蓋体などで従来公知(例えば、特公昭61−12801号公報等参照)のものと同様のものであって、本実施例の容器1では、ポリエチレンテレフタレート樹脂やポリアミド樹脂の基材にアルミニウム箔,エチレンビニルアルコール共重合体樹脂,環状ポリオレフィン樹脂,液晶ポリマー樹脂,ポリグルタミン酸樹脂,MXD6ポリアミド樹脂,透明ポリアミド樹脂等から選択されたバリア層を積層し、該バリア層を熱可塑性シーラント樹脂で覆った三層構造のシート状の蓋板7を使用しており、熱可塑性シーラント樹脂層を接着面として、ヒートシールにより充填口6の先端面(下端面)に貼着している。   The sheet-like lid plate 7 itself is the same as that conventionally known (eg, see Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 61-12801), such as a lid of a cup container, and the container of this embodiment. 1. Barrier layer selected from polyethylene terephthalate resin or polyamide resin base material selected from aluminum foil, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer resin, cyclic polyolefin resin, liquid crystal polymer resin, polyglutamic acid resin, MXD6 polyamide resin, transparent polyamide resin, etc. Are used, and a sheet-like cover plate 7 having a three-layer structure in which the barrier layer is covered with a thermoplastic sealant resin is used.

図4は、本発明の破断開口容易な容器の他の実施例を示すものである。なお、本実施例(実施例2)の容器1は、先の実施例(実施例1)と比べて、容器本体2の外観形状とキャップ5の冠着構造が異なるのみで、その他の点では特に相違するものではない。   FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the container having an easy break opening according to the present invention. The container 1 of this example (Example 2) is different from the previous example (Example 1) only in the external shape of the container body 2 and the crowned structure of the cap 5, except for the other points. There is no particular difference.

すなわち、容器本体2の外観形状について、先の実施例(実施例1)では、底部21から上方に形成される胴部22が楕円筒状であり、胴部22の上方に形成される肩部23が緩やかな傾斜面であるのに対して、本実施例(実施例2)では、図4に示すように、底部21から上方に形成される胴部22が円筒状であり、胴部22の上方に形成される肩部23がドーム状の曲面となっている。   That is, with respect to the external shape of the container body 2, in the previous embodiment (embodiment 1), the body portion 22 formed above the bottom portion 21 is an elliptical cylinder, and the shoulder portion formed above the body portion 22 is used. Whereas 23 is a gently inclined surface, in this embodiment (Example 2), as shown in FIG. 4, the body portion 22 formed upward from the bottom portion 21 is cylindrical, and the body portion 22. A shoulder portion 23 formed above is a dome-shaped curved surface.

また、キャップ5の冠着構造について、先の本実施例(実施例1)では、容器本体2の胴部22の上端に形成された凹溝状の係合部26により、キャップ5はスナップ係合で容器本体2に冠着されるのに対して、本実施例(実施例2)では、容器本体2の頸部24の外周面に形成されたネジ部27により、キャップ5は螺合で容器本体2に冠着される。   In addition, with regard to the crowned structure of the cap 5, in the previous embodiment (embodiment 1), the cap 5 is snap-engaged by the concave groove-like engaging portion 26 formed at the upper end of the body portion 22 of the container body 2. In this embodiment (Example 2), the cap 5 is screwed by the screw portion 27 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the neck portion 24 of the container body 2. Attached to the container body 2.

上記の各実施例に示したような破断開口容易な容器の製造方法について以下に説明する。なお、図示したものは実施例2に示した容器についてのものであるが、実施例1に示した容器についても同様の方法で製造されるものである。   A method for manufacturing a container having an easy break opening as shown in the above embodiments will be described below. In addition, although what was illustrated is about the container shown in Example 2, the container shown in Example 1 is manufactured by the same method.

まず、製造方法の一例について説明すると、図示していないが、円筒形パリソンの内部にエアー吹き込み用のブローピンを配置し、容器本体と封鎖体の外面形状が凹設された金型にパリソンとブローピンを挟んでブローピンからエアーを吹き込むことで、パリソンを容器の形状に成形して、容器本体の底部でブローピンの周りを剪断(ピンチオフ)することにより、先端面が底部の接地面と略平行な平面となるように充填口を開口してから、容器を金型から取り出す。   First, an example of a manufacturing method will be described. Although not shown, a blow pin for blowing air is arranged inside a cylindrical parison, and the parison and blow pin are formed in a mold in which the outer shape of the container body and the sealing body is recessed. The parison is shaped into a container shape by blowing air from the blow pin across the pin, and the tip surface is substantially parallel to the ground contact surface at the bottom by shearing (pinch off) around the blow pin at the bottom of the container body After opening the filling port so as to become, take out the container from the mold.

そして、金型から取り出した容器を、図5(A)に示すように、封鎖体3の側を下にした倒立状態でホルダー8内に収容して、充填口6から内容物を容器内に充填してから、図5(B)に示すように、充填口6の先端面にシート状の蓋板7を貼着することで、容器の充填・密封を行なった後、図5(C)に示すように、ホルダー8から取り出した容器を封鎖体3の側を上にした正立状態として、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界にレーザー銃9からレーザーを照射して弱化部4を形成してから、図5(D)に示すように、容器本体2に螺合によってキャップ5を着脱自在に冠着する。   Then, as shown in FIG. 5A, the container taken out from the mold is accommodated in the holder 8 in an inverted state with the side of the sealing body 3 down, and the contents are put into the container from the filling port 6. After the filling, as shown in FIG. 5 (B), the container is filled and sealed by sticking a sheet-like lid plate 7 to the front end surface of the filling port 6, and then FIG. 5 (C). As shown in Fig. 4, the container taken out from the holder 8 is set in an upright state with the side of the sealing body 3 facing up, and a laser beam is irradiated from the laser gun 9 to the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealing body 3 to After the formation, as shown in FIG. 5D, the cap 5 is removably attached to the container body 2 by screwing.

さらに、製造方法の他の例について説明すると、上記の製造方法と同様にパリソンからブロー成形して金型から取り出した容器を、図6(A)に示すように、容器を封鎖体3の側を上にした正立状態として、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界にレーザー銃9からレーザーを照射して弱化部4を形成してから、図6(B)に示すように、容器本体2に螺合によってキャップ5を着脱自在に冠着して、図6(C)に示すように、キャップ5の側を下にした倒立状態で、充填口6から内容物を容器内に充填してから、図6(D)に示すように、充填口6の先端面にシート状の蓋板7を貼着することで、容器の充填・密封を行なう。この方法では、上記の方法と比べて、容器を倒立状態で保持するためのホルダー8が不要となる。   Further, another example of the manufacturing method will be described. As shown in FIG. 6A, the container taken out from the mold by blow molding from the parison as in the above manufacturing method is placed on the side of the sealed body 3. As shown in FIG. 6 (B), the weakened portion 4 is formed by irradiating a laser from the laser gun 9 to the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealing body 3 in the upright state with the face up. 2, the cap 5 is detachably attached by screwing, and the container is filled with the contents from the filling port 6 in an inverted state with the cap 5 side down as shown in FIG. 6C. After that, as shown in FIG. 6D, the container is filled and sealed by sticking a sheet-like lid plate 7 to the front end surface of the filling port 6. This method eliminates the need for the holder 8 for holding the container in an inverted state as compared with the above method.

なお、上記のような本実施例の容器のそれぞれの製造方法において、充填口6の先端面へのシート状の蓋板7の貼着については、図示していないが、本実施例では、シート状の蓋板7を、ポリエチレンテレフタレート樹脂やポリアミド樹脂からなる担体の表面に剥離可能に貼り付けて、充填口6の先端面に移載してから、ヒートシール条件が200℃のシーラーを0.4MPaの圧力で2,3秒押し付けるヒートシール法により、充填口6の先端面にシート状の蓋板7を接着させて、シート状の蓋板7を担体から剥がすような仮シール工程を経た後で、更に、念のためにシート状の蓋板7に対してシーラーを押し当てる本シール工程を実施している。   In addition, in each manufacturing method of the container of the present embodiment as described above, the attachment of the sheet-like lid plate 7 to the front end surface of the filling port 6 is not illustrated, but in the present embodiment, the sheet The lid plate 7 is attached to the surface of a carrier made of polyethylene terephthalate resin or polyamide resin so as to be peelable and transferred to the front end surface of the filling port 6. After a temporary sealing process in which the sheet-like lid plate 7 is adhered to the tip surface of the filling port 6 by a heat sealing method of pressing for 2 to 3 seconds at a pressure of 4 MPa, and the sheet-like lid plate 7 is peeled off from the carrier. In order to make sure, the sealing step of pressing the sealer against the sheet-like cover plate 7 is performed.

また、上記のような本実施例の容器の製造において、パリソンを金型で挟んで容器をブロー成形する際に、ブロー成形で使用する金型を使って、容器本体2(口部26)と封鎖体3(釣鐘形部31)との境界の部分に金型を食い込ませたり、或いは、金型の一部を上方に移動させて引き延ばしたりすることで、当該部分を通常のブロー成形で得られる壁厚よりも薄くなった薄壁部としており、この薄壁部に対してレーザーを照射することで、破断容易な弱化部4を効率的に形成することができるようにしている。   Further, in the manufacture of the container of the present embodiment as described above, when the container is blow-molded with the parison sandwiched between the mold, the container body 2 (mouth portion 26) and The mold can be bitten into the boundary with the blockade 3 (bell-shaped part 31), or part of the mold can be moved upward and stretched to obtain the part by ordinary blow molding. The thin wall portion is made thinner than the wall thickness to be formed. By irradiating the thin wall portion with a laser, the weakened portion 4 that is easily broken can be efficiently formed.

また、上記のような本実施例の容器の製造において、図5(C)および図6(A)に示すように、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界にレーザーを照射して弱化部4を形成する際に、レーザーの照射に対して相対的に容器を6回転以上回転(レーザー照射を一定方向として容器を自転、又は、固定した容器の周りを公転するようにレーザー銃を移動)させている間に、1.41〜2.02J/mmのエネルギー密度でレーザーを照射することにより、弱化部となる溝を形成し、且つ、この溝とその周辺の部分で、樹脂の密度を変化させることなく極限粘度を低下させると共に、当該部分での極限粘度の低下量の最大値と最小値の比が1.5以下となるようにしている。 Further, in the manufacture of the container of the present embodiment as described above, as shown in FIGS. 5 (C) and 6 (A), the weakened portion 4 is irradiated with a laser at the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealed body 3. When rotating the container, rotate the container more than 6 times relative to the laser irradiation (rotate the container with the laser irradiation as a fixed direction, or move the laser gun to revolve around the fixed container) In the meantime, by irradiating the laser with an energy density of 1.41 to 2.02 J / mm 3 , a groove serving as a weakened part is formed, and the density of the resin is reduced in the groove and its peripheral part. The intrinsic viscosity is lowered without being changed, and the ratio between the maximum value and the minimum value of the reduced amount of the intrinsic viscosity in the portion is set to 1.5 or less.

この点について、例えば、容器の中心軸を回転軸として、6回/sec 以上(好ましくは、6〜9回/sec )の回転速度で、容器を適宜の手段により回転(自転)させている間に、7〜10Wの出力で、レーザー周期が100μsec 以上で、レーザースポット径が200〜400μmであるレーザー(炭酸ガスレーザー)を、1秒間だけ照射することにより、レーザーが照射された部分での単位体積当たりのレーザー照射のエネルギー密度を1.41〜2.02J/mmとすることができる。 In this regard, for example, while the container is rotated (rotated) by an appropriate means at a rotational speed of 6 times / sec or more (preferably 6 to 9 times / sec) with the central axis of the container as the rotation axis. In addition, by irradiating a laser (carbon dioxide laser) having an output of 7 to 10 W, a laser cycle of 100 μsec or more, and a laser spot diameter of 200 to 400 μm for 1 second, a unit in a portion irradiated with the laser The energy density of laser irradiation per volume can be 1.41 to 2.02 J / mm 3 .

レーザー照射のエネルギー密度については、(レーザー出力×レーザー照射時間)÷(弱化部の周長×レーザースポット径×容器肉厚)で定義されるものであって、例えば、レーザー出力が7〜10Wで、レーザースポット径が300μmで、レーザー照射時間が1秒間で、容器肉厚が0.75mmで、弱化部の直径が7mm(周長は7mm×3.14)である場合、レーザー照射のエネルギー密度を算出すると、レーザー出力が7Wである場合のエネルギー密度は、1.41J/mmとなり、レーザー出力が10Wである場合のエネルギー密度は、2.02J/mmとなる。 The energy density of laser irradiation is defined by (laser output × laser irradiation time) ÷ (peripheral length of weakened portion × laser spot diameter × container wall thickness). For example, the laser output is 7 to 10 W. When the laser spot diameter is 300 μm, the laser irradiation time is 1 second, the container thickness is 0.75 mm, and the diameter of the weakened portion is 7 mm (perimeter is 7 mm × 3.14), the energy density of laser irradiation Is calculated, the energy density when the laser output is 7 W is 1.41 J / mm 3 , and the energy density when the laser output is 10 W is 2.02 J / mm 3 .

上記のように容器を6回以上回転させる間に1.41〜2.02J/mmのエネルギー密度でレーザーを照射した場合の一具体例として、肉厚が0.75mmで弱化部の直径が7mmの容器1に対して、この容器を6回/sec の回転速度で回転(自転)させながら、レーザースポット径が300μmのレーザーを、8Wの出力で1秒間だけ照射したところ、弱化部では、約0.25mmの残厚を有する溝が形成されていた。 As one specific example of the case where the laser is irradiated at an energy density of 1.41 to 2.02 J / mm 3 while the container is rotated six times or more as described above, the thickness of the weakened portion is 0.75 mm. When a laser with a laser spot diameter of 300 μm was irradiated for 1 second at an output of 8 W while rotating (spinning) the container at a rotation speed of 6 times / sec with respect to a 7 mm container 1, A groove having a remaining thickness of about 0.25 mm was formed.

この溝が形成された円環状の弱化部の円周方向に沿って、溝とその周辺部分での樹脂の極限粘度を測定したところ、樹脂の極限粘度は、平均値で0.85dl/gとなり、元の極限粘度から15%低下していた。また、最も極限粘度が低下した箇所では、0.82dl/g(極限粘度の低下量は、0.18dl/g)であり、最も極限粘度が低下しなかった箇所では、0.88dl/g(極限粘度の低下量は、0.12dl/g)であって、極限粘度の低下量の最大値と最小値の比は、0.18/0.12=1.5となっていた。なお、樹脂の密度については、レーザー照射前の値から殆ど変化しておらず、1.38g/cm以下の非結晶化状態の値を呈していた。 When the intrinsic viscosity of the resin at the groove and its peripheral portion was measured along the circumferential direction of the annular weakened portion where the groove was formed, the intrinsic viscosity of the resin was 0.85 dl / g on average. , 15% lower than the original intrinsic viscosity. Further, at the place where the intrinsic viscosity was reduced most, it was 0.82 dl / g (the amount of decrease in the intrinsic viscosity was 0.18 dl / g), and at the place where the intrinsic viscosity was not lowered most, 0.88 dl / g ( The decrease amount of the intrinsic viscosity was 0.12 dl / g), and the ratio of the maximum value and the minimum value of the decrease amount of the intrinsic viscosity was 0.18 / 0.12 = 1.5. In addition, about the density of resin, it was hardly changing from the value before laser irradiation, and the value of the non-crystallized state of 1.38 g / cm < 3 > or less was exhibited.

上記のように溝とその周辺部分で樹脂の極限粘度を低下させると共に、樹脂の極限粘度の低下量の最大値と最小値の比が1.5以下となるように弱化部を形成した場合には、弱化部の部分で、溝が形成されて壁厚が薄くなっていると共に、樹脂の密度がそのままで、樹脂の極限粘度が減少していて、樹脂が脆くなっていることから、封鎖体を捩ったり押し倒したりするツイストオフまたはスナップオフの操作により弱化部を容易に破断できると共に、弱化部での樹脂の極限粘度の低下量の最大値と最小値の比が1.5以下であることから、弱化部の破断を全周でムラなく均一に行なうことができて、その結果、70〜80N・cmの小さな力で滑らかに弱化部を破断させて容器の開封を容易に行なうことができる。   When the weakened part is formed so that the ratio of the maximum value and the minimum value of the decrease amount of the resin's intrinsic viscosity is 1.5 or less as well as reducing the intrinsic viscosity of the resin at the groove and its peripheral portion as described above. In the weakened part, the groove is formed and the wall thickness is thin, the resin density remains the same, the intrinsic viscosity of the resin is reduced, and the resin is brittle. The weakened portion can be easily broken by a twist-off or snap-off operation that twists or pushes down, and the ratio between the maximum value and the minimum value of the decrease in the intrinsic viscosity of the resin at the weakened portion is 1.5 or less. As a result, the weakened portion can be uniformly broken all over the circumference, and as a result, the weakened portion can be smoothly broken with a small force of 70 to 80 N · cm to easily open the container. it can.

以上に説明したような方法により製造される本実施例の破断開口容易な容器によれば、ポリエステル樹脂製の容器1で、容器本体2と封鎖体3との境界に形成される破断容易な弱化部4として、レーザーの照射により溝とその周辺で容器内面にまで達する非結晶化部を形成していることで、容器を開封する際に弱化部4を容易に破断することができる。また、シート状の蓋板7の貼着により充填口6を密封していることで、密封時に充填口6を変形させるための多くの加熱工程によりポリエステル樹脂を白化させるようなことはない。さらに、容器1を正立させた状態で、充填口6の先端面に貼着された蓋板7が接地しないことから、容器1を安定的に自立させることができる。   According to the container with the easy opening of breakage of the present embodiment manufactured by the method as described above, the weakening with easy breakage formed at the boundary between the container body 2 and the sealing body 3 in the container 1 made of polyester resin. By forming a non-crystallized portion that reaches the inner surface of the groove and its periphery as the portion 4 by laser irradiation, the weakened portion 4 can be easily broken when the container is opened. Moreover, since the filling port 6 is sealed by sticking the sheet-like lid plate 7, the polyester resin is not whitened by many heating processes for deforming the filling port 6 at the time of sealing. Furthermore, since the cover plate 7 adhered to the front end surface of the filling port 6 does not come into contact with the container 1 in an upright state, the container 1 can be stably supported.
