JP2018076117A - Viscous food container from which food can be got by squeezing - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a solution to the issue that, when viscous food such as mayonnaise and ketchup is filled into the soft, eggplant shaped synthetic resin tube container, some content cannot be completely squeezed out and remains in the container when the residual quantity becomes low, and to provide a viscous food container that easily discharges remaining content so the content can be used up.SOLUTION: While the soft, synthetic resin part of the tube containing the content is extended to the discharge opening, hard synthetic resin is used for the part in touch of the cap of the discharging part, making it into such a shape that it is positioned on the outside. As the soft part of the tube continues up to the discharge opening, when remaining quantity becomes low and it is stored with cap at the bottom, it becomes easier to squeeze out the content accumulated at the discharge part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

  The present invention relates to a tube container that contains viscous foods such as mayonnaise and ketchup, and relates to a viscous food container in which a part of the viscous food is smoothly extracted without remaining in the container and can be used to the end without waste.

  Viscous foods such as mayonnaise and ketchup are commercially available in a soft eggplant-shaped synthetic resin tube container. Such viscous foods are inferior in fluidity, so that they are used by squeezing only a necessary amount from the tube.

  When there is a large amount of food in the tube, the contents can be squeezed out without any trouble, but when the amount of food remaining is small, it becomes difficult to take out the contents.

For this reason, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, an invention has been devised in which a tube is raised upside down and squeezed out using an auxiliary device.

  Viscous foods such as mayonnaise and ketchup are sold in a soft synthetic resin tube container of eggplant type with the air being evacuated and with the cap part facing up. As food is used and the content is reduced, it can be stored with the cap down. This is because the contents are accumulated below, and as much viscous food as possible is used up. However, in the current container, everything cannot be squeezed out and some contents remain. This is because the discharge part of the tube container is stronger and harder than the other part as the part that receives the cap. For this reason, it is unavoidable to throw it away, or to open the container and take out the contents.

  The present invention facilitates the discharge of the contents from the discharge port of a container for viscous foods such as mayonnaise and ketchup, so that viscous foods such as mayonnaise and ketchup can be used up as much as possible.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a soft synthetic resin portion of the tube is extended to the discharge port, and a hard synthetic resin is used for a portion that receives the cap of the discharge portion, and it is disposed outside.

  When the content is reduced and stored with the cap down, and the content is accumulated in the discharge part, the soft part of the tube continues to the discharge port, making it easy to squeeze out the content and waste food. Can be prevented.

  By devising the shape of the discharge part of the tube without using auxiliary equipment, the contents can be used up.

  It is not necessary to change the cap etc. greatly, and the shape of the discharge part of the tube can be changed.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1, but the present invention is in the shape of a discharge portion.

  A hard synthetic resin is used for the part which receives a cap, and it arrange | positions it outside on a discharge part. Since the soft part of the tube continues to the discharge port, the accumulated contents can be squeezed out to the end.

  The part that receives the cap can be deformed to some extent, so it can cope with deformation when the inner tube is squeezed.

It is a vertical front view of the container for viscous foods of this invention.

Claims (1)

  A discharge part shape that extends the soft synthetic resin part of the tube of viscous food containers such as mayonnaise and ketchup to the discharge port, and uses a hard synthetic resin for the part that receives the cap of the discharge part, and places it on the outside.
