  The present invention relates to a plastic bottle characterized by shape.

  Conventionally, various shapes of PET bottles have been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).

Special table 2009-513450 gazette JP 2008-265838 A

  However, conventionally, there has been no plastic bottle having a shape designed mainly for cooling or warming the hand of a person holding the plastic bottle. The present invention proposes a plastic bottle having a shape suitable for cooling or warming the hand of a person holding the plastic bottle.

  The plastic bottle of the present invention is provided with a curved shape portion that follows the roundness of the palm when the plastic bottle is gripped, and a finger receiving recess that receives at least one finger belly above the curved shape portion. It is provided in a ring shape that circulates, and a unit form composed of the curved surface shape part and the finger receiving concave part is provided at least twice in the vertical direction of the PET bottle.

  The finger receiving recess may individually include at least a first finger receiving recess that receives the belly of the index finger and a second finger receiving recess that receives the belly of the middle finger.

  Put cold contents or warm contents into the PET bottle of the present invention, and close the cap so that the contents do not come out. Then, hold the plastic bottle with at least one hand so that the palm touches the curved surface shape portion, and at the same time, grasp the finger receiving recess with a finger. When a plurality of finger receiving recesses are provided, the finger receiving recesses are gripped by a plurality of fingers. Thereby, when the contents of the palm and fingers are in close contact with the plastic bottle and are cold, the palms and fingers are efficiently cooled, and when the contents are warm, the palm and fingers are efficiently heated. The unit form consisting of the curved shape part and the finger receiving recess is provided at least twice in the vertical direction of the PET bottle, so the upper unit form is grasped with one hand and the lower unit form is grasped with the other hand. And both hands can be efficiently cooled or warmed.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a plastic bottle having a shape suitable for cooling or warming the hand of a person holding the plastic bottle.

It is the top view and bottom view of a plastic bottle shown in FIG. 1, (a) shows a top view, (b) shows a bottom view, respectively. The perspective view of the plastic bottle shown in FIG.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1: has shown the front view of the plastic bottle which is one Embodiment of this invention. The left and right side views and the rear view appear the same as the front view. 2A is a plan view of the plastic bottle shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 2B is a bottom view of the plastic bottle shown in FIG. The plastic bottle of the present embodiment has an outer shape specified by the above six views. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the plastic bottle shown in FIG.

  The plastic bottle of the present embodiment is provided with the curved shape portion 1 that follows the roundness of the palm when the plastic bottle is gripped, and the finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b that receive the belly of the finger above the curved shape portion 1 It is provided in a ring shape around the bottle. The unit form 10 including the curved surface shape part 1 and the finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b is repeatedly provided at least twice in the vertical direction of the plastic bottle.

  In the present embodiment, the finger receiving recess includes at least a first finger receiving recess 2a that receives the belly of the index finger and a second finger receiving recess 2b that receives the belly of the middle finger.

  More specifically, in the present embodiment, the unit form 10 has a substantially oval shape divided into upper and lower parts, the lower part is a curved shape part 1, and finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b are formed on the upper part. The finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b are formed to be further recessed than the surface forming the curved surface portion 1. The finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b are recessed in a curved shape along the roundness of the finger belly. At the tip of the PET bottle, a mouth for taking in and out the contents is provided, and a removable cap 3 is attached to cover the mouth. The upper part of the unit form 10 and the lower part of the unit form 10 are passed through the inside of the plastic bottle, and one chamber (cavity) is provided in the entire plastic bottle. This chamber is also connected to the mouth to which the cap 3 is attached. Therefore, all the contents put out from the mouth with the cap 3 removed can enter one room, and all the contents in the room can be taken out from the mouth. Further, as shown in the plan view of FIG. 2A, in the present embodiment, the lower unit form 10 is formed to have a slightly larger maximum diameter than the upper unit form 10. Moreover, in the bottom view shown in FIG.2 (b), the bottom part 4 of a PET bottle shall be dented toward the inner side of a bottle. The PET bottle of such a form is manufactured by a biaxial stretch blow molding method, for example.

  Cold contents or warm contents are put in the plastic bottle of this embodiment, and the cap 3 is closed so that the contents do not come out. Then, hold the plastic bottle with at least one hand so that the palm touches the curved surface portion 1, and simultaneously hold the first finger receiving recess 2 a with the index finger and the second finger receiving recess 2 b with the middle finger. Furthermore, it is preferable to attach a thumb to the finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b so that the PET bottle does not fall out of the hand. Thereby, when the contents of the palm and fingers are in close contact with the plastic bottle and are cold, the palms and fingers are efficiently cooled, and when the contents are warm, the palm and fingers are efficiently heated. The unit form 10 composed of the curved surface part 1 and the finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b is repeatedly provided twice in the vertical direction of the plastic bottle. Therefore, the upper unit form 10 is grasped with one hand and the lower unit form 10 is provided. If the hand is held with the other hand, both hands can be efficiently cooled or warmed.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a plastic bottle having a shape suitable for cooling or warming the hand of a person holding the plastic bottle. Here, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiment. For example, the unit form 10 may be repeated three or more times in the vertical direction of the bottle.

  Examples of the present invention will be further described below. The present application relates to the shape of a plastic bottle used for water, soft drinks, dairy products, foods, etc., and is suitable for being called a palm cooling plastic bottle, and is suitable for the trademark “hand-acon bottle”.

  PET bottles are widely used as containers for a wide variety of applications such as mineral water, soft drinks, dairy products, food (hereinafter referred to as beverages), and are widely used as portable and disposable containers because of their light weight. Recently, the demand for heat stroke prevention measures is also increasing.

Although it is a PET bottle that is thrown away in large quantities every day, the summer demand is particularly high.
It is useful to use the human palm as part of the body temperature control, as if it were a car engine radiator. Therefore, the temperature of the blood is lowered by freezing the beverage in the contents of the plastic bottle and cooling the palm.
Especially when going out in the summer or outdoor activities, the temperature of the blood is exchanged with the frozen beverage etc. through the palm to suppress the rise in body temperature, suppress excessive sweating, and cool the air. Such effects can be obtained, and heat stroke can be prevented.
In addition, it is possible to keep the drinks of the contents cold for a relatively long time even during outdoor activities under the hot sun in the summer or during movement.
Furthermore, although the effect is limited from the summer, it is possible to temporarily relieve the cold through the palm by inserting a warm beverage or the like in the winter.
Therefore, the PET bottle of this example is a plastic bottle that freezes beverages etc. in the bottle in the summer and suppresses the rise in body temperature by holding them firmly in the palm, and relieves the cold by warm beverages etc. in the winter. It is to provide.

As shown in the drawings, the plastic bottle of the present embodiment is a plastic bottle characterized by connecting two bottles up and down to form one.
Both the upper part and the lower part of the bottle are provided with concave grooves at the portions corresponding to the thumb, index finger and middle finger (finger receiving recesses 2a and 2b).
In addition, the lower half of each of the upper part and the lower part of the bottle has an elliptical shape that spreads toward the end so as to be in close contact with the ring finger, little finger, and palm (curved surface shape part 1).
When used for freezing in the summer season, the volume of beverages and the like expands by freezing, so the internal volume should be reduced at room temperature. Thereby, it is possible to prevent spillage when the bottle is ruptured or opened during thawing.

According to the present embodiment, the user is encouraged to change frequently with both left and right hands, and frozen beverages and the like are thawed uniformly, thereby efficiently adjusting body temperature. Furthermore, it can prevent frostbite and low-temperature burns by changing frequently.
Further, when carrying a plastic bottle, it is mainly held by the thumb, the three fingers of the index finger and the middle finger. By attaching concave grooves to these three finger parts, it is easier to hold and the area of contact with the thumb, index finger, middle finger and bottle is increased. Also, the ring finger, pinky finger, and palm part were made into an elliptical shape. This increases the area where the palm comes into contact with the bottle, enables efficient temperature exchange between the body temperature and the beverage in the bottle, and makes it easier to carry around.

By the way, in a state where all the contents are frozen, it is impossible to ingest a beverage or the like that is the contents.
Therefore, when the plastic bottle of the present application is grasped by hand, first, the thumb, forefinger, middle finger hits the concave groove on either the upper and lower sides, and the ring finger, little finger part and palm come into contact with the lower bottle part. From this point of time, the temperature of the body temperature of the human body and the frozen drink of the content starts, and at the same time, the content starts to melt and the content can be gradually ingested.
If you hold it with the same hand for a long time, there is a risk of frostbite or low-temperature burns. This is an attempt to promote the melting of one of the upper and lower ones, which tends to promote the melting of one that has not progressed relatively psychologically. Furthermore, this change also has the effect of melting the entire contents uniformly and efficiently at body temperature.
As the melting progresses, the cap is opened for ingestion of the contents, but the volume of the contents is expanded before the contents are completely melted. Therefore, the content is reduced to prevent spillage.

  According to the above embodiment, it is easy to go out in the midsummer in hot weather and to adjust the body temperature of people who have to work outdoors, and contribute greatly to the prevention of heat stroke.
