Description

  The present invention relates to a lid that can be thermally bonded and sealed to a tray or cup-shaped container for packaging instant noodles such as instant noodles, fried noodles, and pasta, and more specifically, from a configuration that does not include a metal foil such as aluminum. The lid material that can be partially peeled off from the container and opened, poured hot water on the instant noodles etc. stored in the container, and then the lid material removed again is restored and the opening is resealed and covered About.

  Conventionally, for instant food containers such as instant noodles, a lid material is used that is opened about half when pouring hot water, and then resealed after pouring hot water. The lid is composed of a multilayer laminate in which a heat-adhesive resin layer that can be thermally bonded to a container in a peelable manner, an aluminum foil having excellent shape retention, and a paper layer that has been printed on the surface are laminated. .

  When cooking instant noodles contained in a container, first, the lid is peeled off about half and the container is opened. At this time, since the lid material is laminated with aluminum foil, the peeled lid material is held in a half-open state, so that hot water can be poured from the opening. After pouring hot water, when the lid is returned to its original state, the lid does not warp, so that the opening of the container can be covered and resealed. Thus, the cover material of the structure which laminated | stacked aluminum foil has the characteristic (henceforth dead hold property) that the shape which can peel the cover material can be maintained, and can be returned to the original state.

  However, the lid member made of a laminate in which aluminum foil is laminated has a problem that a metal detector for inspecting a metal foreign object that may be erroneously mixed in the container body containing the contents cannot be used, In the incineration treatment of the packaging container after use, there has been a problem that the aluminum foil may become an ingot and adhere to the furnace wall or the like of the incinerator. Therefore, in order to solve these problems, the cover material is made of a laminate that does not contain an aluminum foil, and in order to open and reseal the cover material from the container, a cut line is provided on the knob, In addition, a lid material that has been provided with an opening property and a resealability so that a cut line can be locked to the flange of the container at the time of resealing is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1).

  In addition, it consists of a laminate that does not contain an aluminum layer, and a surface layer that contains a paper layer, a resin layer, and a sealant layer that has heat-sealing properties are laminated in this order, and is perpendicular to the direction in which the lid is peeled off by picking the opening tab A peeling part that peels off part of the surface layer in a slit shape is provided in a predetermined region substantially parallel to the center line on the rear side of the center line of the lid member, and the resin layer and the paper layer of the peeling part are separated from the peeling layer. A cover material is proposed in which a peeling portion is formed from a region sandwiched between a pair of cut lines provided in the surface layer, and a peeling tab that protrudes outward from the outer edge of the flange is provided at one end of the peeling portion. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2).

  However, a lid made of a laminate in which aluminum foil is not laminated has insufficient dead-holding properties.When opening, it is necessary to hold the lid with one hand while pouring hot water with the other hand. At the time of sealing, it is necessary to hold the re-sealed portion of the lid material by hand or to make the lid material not rebound by crushing the weight. In the case of the lid material described in Patent Document 1, when the lid material is opened, the handle piece is peeled off to a large extent and locked to the flange on the rear side of the container. The operation of pulling away from the flange, moving to the front flange, and re-engagement with the flange is necessary and troublesome.

  In addition, the lid material described in Patent Document 2 is provided with a peeling portion that peels in a slit shape substantially parallel to the center line in a part of the surface layer of the lid material, so that the slit-like portion after peeling is thin. Thus, it becomes easy to bend, an excellent dead hold property is obtained, and there is no troublesome operation as in Patent Document 1 at the time of opening and resealing, and it becomes simple. However, Patent Document 2 states that “after the peeling portion 3 is peeled off from the lid material 1 in a slit shape, the opening tab 2 is picked and the lid material 1 is moved to the flange of the container body 21 until the state shown in FIG. As described in the following, “1) peeling of the peeled portion and (2) opening of the lid material are necessary for opening, which is troublesome for the user. The development of a lid that can be opened by action has been desired.
