In addition, the upper surface of the flange part 32 has the position in the cap axis | shaft O direction equivalent to the upper end edge of the exterior cylinder 13 mentioned above.

  The mounting cylinder part 33 is located between the outer cylinder 13 and the peripheral wall part 14 of the cap main body 11 in the radial direction, and is mounted on the peripheral wall part 14. A plurality of guide recesses (guide portions) 41 that are recessed inward in the radial direction are formed in the mounting cylinder portion 33 at intervals in the circumferential direction. These guide recesses 41 have a shape corresponding to the above-described guide protrusions 22, and the above-described guide protrusions 22 are accommodated separately. Specifically, the guide recess 41 is opened downward at the lower end edge of the mounting cylinder portion 33, and the side end edge is inclined with respect to the cap axis O.

  Moreover, the 1st latching | locking part 44 protruded toward the inner side of radial direction is extended in the lower end part of the mounting cylinder part 33 along the circumferential direction. This 1st latching | locking part 44 is latched from the downward direction to the 2nd latching | locking part 43 which protruded toward the outer side of the radial direction from the surrounding wall part 14 mentioned above. That is, in this embodiment, the measuring cap 12 has the mounting cylinder portion 33 under-fitted to the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11 from the outside in the radial direction. In the lower end portion of the mounting cylinder portion 33, a circumferential groove 42 that is recessed toward the inside in the radial direction extends along the circumferential direction at a portion that is located above the first locking portion 44. . In the circumferential groove 42, the above-mentioned second locking portion 43 is fitted.

Here, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a regulating member 51 that regulates the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 with respect to the cap body 11 is formed integrally with the cap body 11 in the outer cylinder 13 of the cap body 11 described above. Has been. The restricting member 51 is formed in a ring shape that is formed to have substantially the same diameter as the outer cylinder 13. The regulating member 51 surrounds the measuring cup 31 of the measuring cap 12 from the outside in the radial direction, and the lower end edge thereof is close to or in contact with the upper end edge of the exterior cylinder 13.
The restricting member 51 is rotatably connected to the upper end edge of the outer tube 13 via a hinge portion 52 that can be broken at a portion located on the other side in the first direction.

A protruding portion 56 that protrudes outward in the radial direction is formed in a portion of the regulating member 51 that is located on one side in the first direction. A locking piece 54 that is elastically deformable along the radial direction extends downward from the overhanging portion 56. Locking protrusions 53 formed on the outer cylinder 13 are locked to the locking pieces 54. In addition, the inner peripheral surface in the lower end part of the locking piece 54 is an inclined surface that inclines toward the outside in the radial direction as it goes downward.
An operating piece 55 projects from the upper end edge of the overhanging portion 56 toward the outside in the radial direction.

  The restricting member 51 is formed with a plurality of restricting protrusions 57 that protrude inward in the radial direction at intervals in the circumferential direction. These restricting protrusions 57 are formed over the entire restricting member 51 in the cap axis O direction. The restricting protrusion 57 extends to a position where the radially inner end portion overlaps the outer peripheral portion of the flange portion 32 of the measuring cap 12 described above in a plan view as viewed from the cap axis O direction. Proximity or contact. Thereby, the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 with respect to the cap body 11 is restricted. In addition, the inner side edge part of the control protrusion 57 is made into the circular arc shape of a protrusion toward the inner side of radial direction.

Next, the operation of the cap 1 described above will be described. In the cap 1 of the present embodiment, the regulating member 51 is attached to the outer tube 13 and the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 with respect to the cap body 11 by the regulating projection 57 in the distribution stage (the unopened state of the cap 1). Is regulated.
As shown in FIG. 3, in order to open the cap 1, first, the operation piece 55 is grasped, the operation piece 55 is pulled up, and the engagement between the engagement piece 54 and the engagement projection 53 is released. The locking piece 54 may be broken from the regulating member 51 to release the locking between the regulating member 51 and the locking projection 53.

  Thereafter, the regulating member 51 is rotated around the hinge portion 52 via the operation piece 55. Then, the restricting protrusion 57 is separated from the flange portion 32, and the restriction of the measuring cap 12 by the restricting protrusion 57 is released, and the restricting member 51 comes out of the periphery of the measuring cup 31. In this state, the hinge portion 52 is broken to separate the regulating member 51 from the cap body 11. Thereby, the cap 1 is opened.

  Next, in order to remove the measuring cap 12 from the cap body 11 in the use stage, first, the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are relatively rotated to one side in the circumferential direction. When the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are relatively rotated toward one side in the circumferential direction, the side edge of the guide recess 41 in the measuring cap 12 is circumferentially aligned with the side edge of the guide protrusion 22 in the cap body 11. It hits from one side. In this state, when the cap body 11 and the measurement cap 12 are further rotated relative to each other, the side edges of the guide protrusion 22 and the guide recess 41 are brought into sliding contact with each other, so that the measurement cap 12 is guided into the guide protrusion. It is pushed upward by the portion 22.

  When the measuring cap 12 is pushed upward, the first locking portion 44 climbs over the second locking portion 43, so that the mounting cylinder portion 33 in the measuring cap 12 and the peripheral wall portion 14 in the cap body 11 The undercut fitting of is released. Thereby, the measurement cap 12 is removed from the cap main body. Even if the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are relatively rotated to the other side in the circumferential direction, the measuring cap 12 can be removed from the cap body 11 by the same action as described above. Alternatively, the measuring cap 12 may be lifted upward and the measuring cap 12 may be removed from the cap body 11.

  Thereafter, the container body 2 is tilted, and the contents are poured into the measuring cup 31 of the measuring cap 12 through the pouring cylinder 24 while being measured, and then the measured contents are poured out from the measuring cup 31.

  On the other hand, when the measuring cap 12 is attached to the cap body 11 again after the contents are poured out, the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are moved to the cap axis O while the dispensing tube 24 is inserted into the measuring cup 31. Approach along the direction. In the following description, a case will be described in which the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are brought close to each other along the cap axis O direction in a state where the circumferential positions of the guide protrusion 22 and the guide recess 41 are aligned.

When the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are moved closer to each other along the direction of the cap axis O, the guide protrusion 22 enters the guide recess 41, and the first locking portion 44 of the measuring cap 12 is the second locking portion. 43 abuts from above. In this state, when the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are further moved closer to each other along the direction of the cap axis O, the first locking portion 44 gets over the second locking portion 43 and the guide protrusion 22 becomes the guide recess. 41. Accordingly, the first locking portion 44 is locked to the second locking portion 43 from below, and the second locking portion 43 is fitted into the circumferential groove 42 of the measuring cap 12.
As described above, the mounting cylindrical portion 33 of the measuring cap 12 is undercut fitted to the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap main body 11, and the measuring cap 12 is mounted to the cap main body 11.

  When the side edges of the guide projection 22 and the guide recess 41 are in contact with each other in the process of relatively bringing the cap body 11 and the measurement cap 12 closer, the cap body 11 and the measurement cap 12 When the side edges come into sliding contact with the approaching movement, the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are relatively rotated in the circumferential direction. Thereby, the measuring cap 12 is attached to the cap body 11 while the guide protrusion 22 is accommodated in the guide recess 41.

Thus, in this embodiment, since the regulating member 51 that regulates the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 is connected to the cap main body 11 so as to be broken, the measuring cap 12 is unexpectedly removed from the cap main body 11 in the distribution stage. Can be suppressed. In the use stage, the measuring member 12 is detached from the cap body 11 without being regulated by the regulating member 51 by separating the regulating member 51 from the cap body 11.
Moreover, since the mounting cylinder portion 33 of the measuring cap 12 is mounted on the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11 by undercut fitting, the operability at the use stage is improved as compared with, for example, mounting by screwing. be able to.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the surrounding wall part 14 and the mounting | wearing cylinder part 33 are undercut-fitting, compared with the structure to which the surrounding wall part 14 and the mounting | wearing cylinder part 33 were screwed together, for example, the surrounding wall part 14 of FIG. The contact area between the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface of the mounting cylinder portion 33 is reduced. Therefore, it can suppress that the content solidifies between the outer peripheral surface of the surrounding wall part 14, and the inner peripheral surface of the mounting | wearing cylinder part 33, and it becomes difficult to remove the measurement cap 12 from the cap main body 11. FIG.

Further, with the relative rotation of the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 along the circumferential direction, a guide protrusion 22 and a guide recess 41 are provided for guiding the measuring cap 12 in a direction (upward) to be removed from the cap body 11. Therefore, the undercut fitting between the peripheral wall portion 14 and the mounting cylinder portion 33 can be easily removed by a rotating operation.
Further, when the measuring cap 12 is attached, the measuring cap 12 is accommodated in the guide recess 41 as the cap main body 11 and the measuring cap 12 move closer along the cap axis O direction, while the measuring cap 12 is in the cap main body 11. Will be attached to. Thereby, at the time of mounting | wearing with the measurement cap 12, the circumferential direction position of the cap main body 11 and the measurement cap 12 can be match | combined easily.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was explained in full detail with reference to drawings, the concrete structure is not restricted to this embodiment, The design change etc. of the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention are included.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which the regulation protrusion 57 is formed over the entire cap axis O direction of the regulation member 51 has been described, but the configuration is not limited thereto. That is, if the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 with respect to the cap body 11 is restricted, the design can be changed as appropriate, for example, the restriction protrusion 57 is formed only at the lower end of the restriction member 51.
The restricting member 51 is not limited to the ring shape as long as the upward movement of the measuring cap 12 with respect to the cap body 11 is restricted.
Furthermore, although the embodiment mentioned above demonstrated the structure by which the mounting cylinder part 33 which surrounds the measuring cup 31 from the outer side of radial direction is undercut-fitted to the surrounding wall part 14 of the cap main body 11, it is not restricted to this. For example, the mounting cylinder portion 33 may be configured to continue downward from the lower end edge of the measuring cup 31.

  In the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which the rib 35 formed on the measuring cup 31 extends along the direction of the cap axis O has been described, but is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, annular ribs 135 extending along the circumferential direction on the outer circumferential surface of the measuring cup 31 may be formed at intervals in the cap axis O direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the mounting cylinder part 133 of the measuring cap 12 may have an elastically displaceable operation piece 101 that is undercut fitted to the peripheral wall part 14 of the cap body 11. . Specifically, an opening 102 that penetrates the mounting cylinder portion 133 in the cap axis O direction is formed at a position facing the radial direction in the mounting cylinder portion 133, and the operation pieces 101 are individually accommodated in these openings 102. ing. The operation piece 101 is connected to a pair of side surfaces facing each other in the circumferential direction among the inner peripheral edges of the opening 102 via elastic hinges 103.

Each operation piece 101 has a plate shape extending along the cap axis O direction in a side view as viewed from the radial direction. The operation piece 101 is configured to be elastically displaceable by elastic deformation of the elastic hinge portion 103. In the illustrated example, the operation piece 101 rotates around a hinge shaft extending along the circumferential direction.
A first locking portion 144 that protrudes inward in the radial direction extends along the circumferential direction at the lower end of the operation piece 101. The 1st latching | locking part 144 is latched by the 2nd latching | locking part 43 mentioned above from the downward direction.

  A portion of the operation piece 101 located above the elastic hinge portion 103 is detached from the second locking portion 43 from the locking position where the first locking portion 144 is locked to the second locking portion 43. An operation unit 105 for rotating the operation piece 101 around the hinge axis toward the release position is configured.

As shown in FIG. 6, in order to remove the measuring cap 12 from the cap body 11 in the use stage, the operation part 105 of each operation piece 101 is gripped and each operation part 105 is pressed toward the inside in the radial direction. Then, the operation piece 101 moves from the locking position toward the release position by being elastically displaced about the hinge axis by elastic deformation of the elastic hinge portion 103. Specifically, the first locking portion 144 of the operation piece 101 moves away from the second locking portion 43 by moving outward in the radial direction. Thereby, the undercut fitting between the mounting cylinder part 133 of the measuring cap 12 and the peripheral wall part 14 of the cap body 11 is released.
Then, with the operation piece 101 maintained at the release position, the measuring cap 12 is pulled upward with respect to the cap body 11. Thereby, the measurement cap 12 is removed from the cap body 11.

  According to the configuration described above, by operating the operation piece 101, the locking portions 43 and 144 are unlocked, so that the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11, the mounting cylinder portion 133 of the measuring cap 12, and the like. The operability at the time of attaching and detaching can be further improved.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, notch portions 201 extending along the cap axis O direction may be formed in the mounting cylinder portion 233 at intervals in the circumferential direction. In the illustrated example, the notch 201 is opened downward at the lower end edge of the mounting cylinder 233.

  According to this configuration, a portion of the mounting cylinder portion 233 positioned between the cutout portions 201 is easily elastically deformed in the radial direction, so that the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11 and the mounting cylinder portion 233 of the measuring cap 12 are provided. And the operability at the time of attachment / detachment can be further improved.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which the guide protrusion 22 is formed on the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11 and the guide recess 41 is formed on the mounting cylinder portion 33 of the measuring cap 12 has been described. . For example, a guide recess may be formed in the peripheral wall portion 14 of the cap body 11 and a guide protrusion may be formed in the mounting cylinder portion 33 of the measuring cap 12.
Moreover, although embodiment mentioned above demonstrated the case where the guide protrusion 22 and the guide recessed part 41 are exhibiting triangular shape, it is not restricted to this. That is, any configuration may be used as long as the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are guided in a direction in which the cap main body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are separated in the cap axis O direction with the relative rotation of the cap body 11 and the measuring cap 12 in the circumferential direction.

  For example, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, guide protrusions 301 and 302 may be formed on the peripheral wall portion 14 and the mounting cylinder portion 33 as guide portions, respectively. Each of the guide protrusions 301 and 302 has a trapezoidal shape when viewed from the radial direction, and the side edge thereof is inclined with respect to the cap axis O. The measuring cap 12 and the cap main body 11 are mounted with the circumferential positions of the guide protrusions 301 and 302 being shifted. A first locking portion 344 projects from the guide protrusion 302 of the mounting cylinder portion 33 toward the inside in the radial direction, and is locked to the second locking portion 43 of the cap body 11.

  In such a configuration, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, in order to remove the measuring cap 12 from the cap main body 11, first, the cap main body 11 and the measuring cap 12 are relatively rotated in the circumferential direction. Then, the side edges of the guide protrusions 301 and 302 abut each other in the circumferential direction, and the rear edges are brought into sliding contact with each other, whereby the measuring cap 12 is pushed upward as in the above-described embodiment. Thereby, the measurement cap 12 can be removed from the cap main body 11.

  In addition, in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention, it is possible to replace suitably the component in the embodiment mentioned above by the known component, and you may combine the modification mentioned above suitably.
