(First embodiment)
The first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 17 are views showing a first embodiment of the present invention.

  First, an outline of a combination of a bottle and a support container according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present specification, “upper” and “lower” refer to the upper side and the lower side in the state where the bottom 30 of the bottle 10A is directed downward in the vertical direction (FIG. 1), respectively.

  1 to 5 includes a bottle 10A and a support container 80 that supports the bottle 10A in an upside down state. Among these, as will be described later, the bottle 10A is subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding for the composite preform 70 (see FIG. 11) including the preform 10a and the plastic member 40a using a blow molding die (not shown). Thus, the content L is accommodated in the composite preform 70 obtained by integrally expanding the preform 10a and the plastic member 40a, and the cap (lid member) 60 is attached.

  Such a bottle 10A includes a bottle body 10 made of a plastic material located inside, a plastic member 40 provided in close contact with the outside of the bottle body 10, a content L accommodated in the bottle body 10, And a cap 60 attached to the bottle body 10.

  Among these, the bottle body 10 includes a mouth portion 11, a neck portion 13 provided below the mouth portion 11, a shoulder portion 12 provided below the neck portion 13, a trunk portion 20 provided below the shoulder portion 12, And a bottom portion 30 provided below the portion 20. Among these, a cap 60 is attached to the mouth portion 11 to seal the contents L accommodated in the bottle body 10. In addition, the support container 80 is in contact with the boundary B between the shoulder portion 12 and the body portion 20 of the bottle body 10 (see FIGS. 3A to 3B). As described above, the support container 80 supports the bottle 10A that is turned upside down (the mouth portion 11 faces downward) (see FIG. 3B).

  The plastic member 40 is in close contact with the outer surface of the bottle main body 10 in a thinly extended state, and is attached to the bottle main body 10 without being easily moved or rotated. In FIG. 1, the plastic member 40 is exaggerated in the thickness direction.

  Next, the bottle body 10 will be described in detail. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7 to 10, the bottle main body 10 has the mouth portion 11, the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 as described above.

  Of these, the mouth portion 11 has a male screw portion 14 screwed into the cap 60 and a flange portion 17 provided below the male screw portion 14 (see FIGS. 1, 9 and 10). The shape of the mouth portion 11 may be a conventionally known shape, or may be a shape corresponding to a multi-thread screw cap or a cap-type cap.

  The neck portion 13 is located between the flange portion 17 and the shoulder portion 12, and has a substantially cylindrical shape having a substantially uniform diameter (see FIGS. 1, 7, and 9). The shoulder portion 12 is located between the neck portion 13 and the trunk portion 20, and has a shape in which the diameter gradually increases from the neck portion 13 side toward the trunk portion 20 side (FIG. 1, FIG. 7 to 10).

  Furthermore, the trunk | drum 20 has a cylinder shape with a horizontal cross section which is not uniform toward upper direction from the downward direction. In more detail, the trunk | drum 20 has the barrel shape where a diameter becomes small, so that it is close to the shoulder part 12 and the bottom part 30 (refer FIG.1, FIG.7 and FIG.9). For this reason, a part of trunk | drum 20 can be visually recognized now when it sees from upper direction or the downward direction (refer FIG.4, FIG.5, FIG.8 and FIG. 10). The trunk portion 20 includes an R portion 20b that is gradually reduced in diameter from the bottom 30 side toward the shoulder portion 12 side and is curved in a vertical cross section. The trunk portion 20 is interposed via the R portion 20b. Smoothly continues to the shoulder 12. As will be described later, in the vertical cross section, the contour of the outer surface of the side portion 82 of the support container 80 and the contour of the trunk portion 20 are smoothly continuous. Moreover, the horizontal cross section of the trunk | drum 20 does not need to be circular shape, and may have polygonal shapes, such as a square shape and an octagon shape. Moreover, in this Embodiment, although the unevenness | corrugation is not formed in the trunk | drum 20, and has a substantially flat surface, it is not restricted to this. For example, unevenness such as a panel or a groove may be formed on the body 20, and a pattern by sandblasting, graining, or laser processing may be formed.

  On the other hand, the bottom portion 30 has a concave portion 31 located in the center and a grounding portion 32 provided around the concave portion 31. The shape of the bottom 30 is not particularly limited, and may have a conventionally known bottom shape (for example, a petaloid bottom shape or a round bottom shape).

  Moreover, the thickness of the bottle main body 10 in the trunk | drum 20 is not limited to this, For example, it can be made thin to about 50 micrometers or more and 250 micrometers or less. Further, the weight of the bottle main body 10 is not limited to this, but when the full capacity of the bottle main body 10 is 300 ml, for example, it can be 10 g or more and 30 g or less. Thus, by reducing the thickness of the bottle main body 10, the weight of the bottle main body 10 can be reduced.

  Such a bottle main body 10 can be produced by biaxially stretching blow-molding a preform 10a (described later) produced by injection molding a synthetic resin material. The preform 10a, that is, the material of the bottle body 10 is a thermoplastic resin, particularly PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PC (polycarbonate), IO (ionomer resin). ) Is preferably used. The bottle body 10 may be colored in colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, and white, but is preferably colorless and transparent in consideration of ease of recycling. Moreover, you may blend and use the various resin mentioned above. Further, a vapor deposition film such as a diamond-like carbon film or a silicon oxide thin film may be formed on the inner surface of the bottle body 10 in order to enhance the barrier property of the container.

  Moreover, the bottle main body 10 can also be formed as a multilayer molded bottle of two or more layers. That is, by extrusion molding or injection molding, for example, the intermediate layer has gas barrier properties and light shielding properties such as MXD6, MXD6 + fatty acid salt, PGA (polyglycolic acid), EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer) or PEN (polyethylene naphthalate). You may form as a multilayer bottle which has gas barrier property and light-shielding property by extrusion-molding preform 10a which consists of three or more layers as resin which it has (intermediate layer), and carrying out blow molding. As the intermediate layer, a resin obtained by blending the above-described various resins may be used.

  In addition, by mixing an inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) with the melt of thermoplastic resin, a foam preform having a foam cell diameter of 0.5 μm or more and 100 μm or less is formed, and this foam preform is blow-molded. By doing so, you may produce the bottle main body 10. FIG. Since such a bottle main body 10 contains the foam cell, the light shielding property of the whole bottle main body 10 can be improved.

  Such a bottle main body 10 may consist of bottles with a full capacity of 50 ml or more and 1500 ml or less, for example.

  Next, the plastic member 40 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. As will be described later, the plastic member 40 (40a) is provided so as to surround the outside of the preform 10a, and is obtained by being in close contact with the outside of the preform 10a and then being biaxially stretch blow-molded together with the preform 10a. It is a thing. That is, the plastic member 40 is produced by stretching the plastic member 40a together with the preform 10a as will be described later.

  The plastic member 40 is attached to the outer surface of the bottle body 10 without being bonded, and is in close contact with the bottle body 10 so as not to move or rotate. The plastic member 40 is thinly stretched on the outer surface of the bottle body 10 to cover the bottle body 10. As shown in FIG. 11, the plastic member 40 is provided over the entire circumferential direction so as to surround the bottle body 10, and has a substantially circular horizontal cross section.

  In this case, the plastic member 40 is provided so as to cover the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 except for the mouth portion 11. As a result, desired functions and characteristics, in particular, light-shielding properties can be imparted to the neck 13, shoulder 12, body 20, and bottom 30 of the bottle body 10. Further, the number of plastic members 40 is not limited to one, and a plurality of plastic members 40 may be provided. For example, two plastic members 40 may be provided on the outer surface of the neck portion 13 and the shoulder portion 12 and the outer surface of the bottom portion 30.

  On the other hand, since the plastic member 40 is not welded or bonded to the bottle body 10, it can be peeled off from the bottle body 10 and removed. Specifically, for example, the plastic member 40 is excised using a blade or the like, or a cutting line (not shown) is provided in advance in the plastic member 40, and the plastic member 40 is separated and excised from the bottle body 10 along the cutting line. can do.

  The plastic member 40a for producing such a plastic member 40 may be one that does not have a contracting action on the preform 10a, or may have a contracting action. A heat-shrinkable tube can be used as the plastic member 40a having an effect of contracting with respect to the preform 10a.

  Moreover, the thickness of the plastic member 40 is not limited to this, but can be set to, for example, about 5 μm to 500 μm, and more preferably 5 μm to 100 μm, when attached to the bottle body 10. Can do. Further, the thickness of the plastic member 40 is, for example, about 50 μm or more and 1000 μm or less around the neck portion 13.

  In the present embodiment, the plastic member 40 may be colored in a visible light color such as red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, and white. The plastic member 40 may be (semi) transparent or opaque. In this case, for example, the plastic member 40 may be colored with visible light and the bottle body 10 may be colorless and transparent. Alternatively, both the bottle body 10 and the plastic member 40 may be colored in visible light. In the case of producing the plastic member 40 colored in visible light color, a visible light color pigment may be added to the molding material in the step of producing the plastic member 40a before blow molding by extrusion molding or the like. .

  Next, the structure of the composite preform for producing the bottle body 10 in which the plastic member 40 is provided in close contact with the outside will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the composite preform 70 includes a preform 10a made of a plastic material and a bottomed cylindrical plastic member 40a provided outside the preform 10a.

  Among these, the preform 10a includes a mouth portion 11a, a body portion 20a connected to the mouth portion 11a, and a bottom portion 30a connected to the body portion 20a. Of these, the mouth portion 11 a corresponds to the mouth portion 11 of the bottle body 10 described above, and has substantially the same shape as the mouth portion 11. Moreover, the trunk | drum 20a respond | corresponds to the neck part 13, the shoulder part 12, and the trunk | drum 20 of the bottle main body 10 mentioned above, and has a substantially cylindrical shape. The bottom portion 30a corresponds to the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 described above, and has a substantially hemispherical shape.

  The plastic member 40a is attached to the outer surface of the preform 10a without being bonded, and is in close contact with the preform 10a so as not to move or rotate, or in close contact with the preform 10a so as not to fall by its own weight. . The plastic member 40a is provided over the entire circumferential direction so as to surround the preform 10a, and has a circular horizontal cross section.

  The thickness of the plastic member 40a can be, for example, about 100 μm to 3000 μm. By setting the thickness to 100 μm or more, a problem that the plastic member 40a is stretched and broken at the time of blow molding is prevented. Further, by setting the thickness to 3000 mm or less, it is possible to prevent a problem that the plastic member 40a is not sufficiently stretched during blow molding.

  In this case, the plastic member 40a is provided so as to cover the entire area excluding the mouth portion 11a. Moreover, the plastic member 40a may be colored in visible light colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, and white.

  The plastic member 40a may be provided in a partial region other than the mouth portion 11a. Furthermore, the number of plastic members 40a is not limited to one, and a plurality of plastic members 40a may be provided. For example, two plastic members 40a may be provided at two locations outside the trunk portion 20a.

  Such a plastic member 40a may be one that does not have a contracting action on the preform 10a or may have a contracting action.

  In the former case, the plastic member 40a is produced by, for example, a direct blow molded tube produced by a direct blow molding method, a sheet molded tube produced by a sheet molding method, an extruded tube produced by extrusion molding, or inflation molding. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and other molding methods may be used.

  In the latter case, that is, when the plastic member (outer contraction member) 40a has an action of contracting, the plastic member (outer contraction member) 40a is, for example, when an external action (for example, heat) is applied. A heat-shrinkable tube having an action of shrinking (for example, heat shrinking) with respect to the reform 10a may be used. Alternatively, the plastic member (outer contraction member) 40a itself may be contractible or elastic and can contract without applying an external action.

  Examples of the plastic member 40a include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, poly-4-methylpentene-1, polystyrene, AS resin, ABS tree, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl acetate, Polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetal, polyvinyl butyral, diallyl phthalate resin, fluorine resin, polymethyl methacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polymethyl acrylate, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylamide, polybutadiene, polybutene-1, polyisoprene, polychloroprene, Ethylene propylene rubber, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, acrylic rubber, silicone rubber, fluoro rubber, nylon 6, nylon 6,6, nylon MXD6, aromatic poly , Polycarbonate, poly (ethylene terephthalate), poly (butylene terephthalate), poly (ethylene naphthalate), ionomer resin, U polymer, liquid crystal polymer, modified polyphenylene ether, polyether ketone, polyether ether ketone, unsaturated polyester, alkyd resin, polyimide, Examples thereof include polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, polyether sulfone, silicone resin, polyurethane, phenol resin, urea resin, polyethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide, polyacetal, and epoxy resin. Among these, it is preferable to use thermoplastic inelastic resins such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). Moreover, those blend materials, multilayer structures, and partial multilayer structures may be used. Furthermore, various additives other than the main component resin may be added to the material of the plastic member 40a as long as the characteristics are not impaired. Examples of additives include plasticizers, UV stabilizers, anti-coloring agents, matting agents, deodorants, flame retardants, weathering agents, antistatic agents, yarn friction reducing agents, slip agents, mold release agents, An oxidizing agent, an ion exchange agent, a coloring pigment, and the like can be added. Moreover, by mixing an inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) with a thermoplastic resin melt, a foam member having a foam cell diameter of 0.5 μm or more and 100 μm or less is used, and this foam preform is molded. Therefore, the light shielding property can be improved.

  The plastic member 40a may be made of the same material as that of the bottle body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, for example, the plastic member 40 can be arranged mainly in a portion of the bottle 10A where the strength is to be increased, and the strength of the portion can be selectively increased. For example, a plastic member 40 may be provided around the shoulder 12 and the bottom 30 of the bottle body 10 to increase the strength of this portion. Examples of such materials include thermoplastic resins, particularly PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), and PC (polycarbonate).

  The plastic member 40a may be made of a material having a gas barrier property such as an oxygen barrier property or a water vapor barrier property. In this case, without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, the gas barrier property of the bottle 10A can be improved and the contents can be prevented from being deteriorated by oxygen or water vapor. For example, the plastic body 40 may be provided in the whole region of the shoulder portion 12, the neck portion 13, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10, and the gas barrier property of this portion may be enhanced. Such materials include PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), MXD-6 (nylon), EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer), PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride) or oxygen such as fatty acid salts in these materials. It is also possible to mix an absorbent material.

  The plastic member 40a may be made of a material having a light barrier property such as ultraviolet rays. In this case, without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, the light barrier property of the bottle 10A can be improved and the contents can be prevented from being deteriorated by ultraviolet rays or the like. For example, a plastic member 40 a may be provided in the entire region of the shoulder portion 12, the neck portion 13, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 to enhance the ultraviolet barrier property of this portion. As such a material, a blend material or a material obtained by adding a light-shielding resin to PET, PE, or PP can be considered. Moreover, you may use the foaming member with the foam cell diameter of 0.5 micrometer or more and 100 micrometers or less produced by mixing inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) with the melt of a thermoplastic resin.

  Further, the plastic member 40a may be made of a material having a higher cold insulation property or higher heat retention property (a material having lower thermal conductivity) than a plastic material constituting the bottle body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, it is possible to make it difficult to transmit the temperature of the contents to the surface of the bottle 10A without increasing the thickness of the bottle body 10 itself. Thereby, the cold insulation property or heat retention property of the bottle 10A is improved. For example, the plastic member 40 may be provided on all or part of the body 20 in the bottle main body 10 to enhance the cold insulation or heat insulation of the body 20. Further, when the user grips the bottle 10A, it is prevented that the bottle 10A becomes difficult to hold due to being too cold or too hot. Examples of such materials include foamed polyurethane, polystyrene, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), phenol resin, polyvinyl chloride, urea resin, silicone, polyimide, melamine resin, and the like. It is preferable to mix hollow particles with a resin material containing these resins. The average particle diameter of the hollow particles is preferably 1 μm or more and 200 μm or less, and more preferably 5 μm or more and 80 μm or less. The “average particle size” means the volume average particle size and is measured by a known method using a particle size distribution / particle size distribution measuring device (for example, Nanotrack particle size distribution measuring device, manufactured by Nikkiso Co., Ltd.). can do. The hollow particles may be organic hollow particles composed of a resin or the like, or may be inorganic hollow particles composed of glass or the like. Hollow particles are preferred.
