As can be seen from FIG. 6, the inner wall surface of the outlet 8 has a partial range at the upper end extending along the axial direction. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, an uneven portion 32 is formed in a partial range R around the outlet 8 on the bottom surface of the first recess 24. The uneven portion 32 may be formed in a partial range R around the outlet 8 as in the present embodiment, or may be formed over the entire bottom surface of the first recess 24.
凹凸部３２は、第１凹部２４の底面に複数の凹部３２Ｂを凹設することで形成してもよく、第１凹部２４の底面に複数の凸部３２Ａを突設することで形成してもよい。凹凸部３２は、図７に示すように、凸部３２Ａと凹部３２Ｂとが、一方向に沿って交互に形成される構成でもよい。この実施形態の場合、凸部３２Ａの断面形状は、図８（ａ）に示す略三角形状、図８（ｂ）に示す略矩形状、図８（ｃ）に示す半円形状や図８（ｄ）に示す逆Ｕ字状等に形成されてもよい。その他、凹凸部３２は、図９に示すように、凸部３２Ａと凹部３２Ｂとが、互いに直交する二方向に沿って交互に形成される構成でもよい。この実施形態の場合、凸部３２Ａは、四角錐状（図９に示す）、正四角柱や半球状等に形成されてよい。また、図示は省略するが、凹凸部３２の断面形状が、波状に形成されてもよい。要するに、凹凸部３２の形状は具体的に限定されることなく、凸部３２Ａと凹部３２Ｂとが交互に形成される構成を採用すればよい。 The concavo-convex portion 32 may be formed by forming a plurality of concave portions 32B on the bottom surface of the first concave portion 24, or may be formed by projecting a plurality of convex portions 32A on the bottom surface of the first concave portion 24. Good. As shown in FIG. 7, the concavo-convex portion 32 may have a configuration in which convex portions 32 </ b> A and concave portions 32 </ b> B are alternately formed along one direction. In the case of this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the convex portion 32A may be a substantially triangular shape shown in FIG. 8 (a), a substantially rectangular shape shown in FIG. 8 (b), a semicircular shape shown in FIG. It may be formed in an inverted U shape shown in d). In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, the concavo-convex portion 32 may have a configuration in which convex portions 32 </ b> A and concave portions 32 </ b> B are alternately formed along two directions orthogonal to each other. In the case of this embodiment, the convex portion 32A may be formed in a quadrangular pyramid shape (shown in FIG. 9), a regular quadrangular prism, a hemisphere, or the like. Although not shown, the cross-sectional shape of the concavo-convex portion 32 may be formed in a wave shape. In short, the shape of the concavo-convex portion 32 is not specifically limited, and a configuration in which the convex portions 32A and the concave portions 32B are alternately formed may be employed.
凹凸部３２の、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の間隔Ｓ（図８参照）は特に限定されないが、内容物、例えば顆粒体５０（図１１参照）の大きさ、すなわち顆粒体５０の最大外径Ｄ（図１１参照）に基づいて適宜設定したほうがよい。具体的には、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の間隔Ｓは、顆粒体５０の最大外径Ｄよりも小さく設定して、凹部３２Ｂ内への顆粒体５０の侵入を抑制するようにしたほうがよい。例えば、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の間隔Ｓは、図１１に示すように、凹部３２Ｂ内への顆粒体５０全体の侵入を抑制するように設定したほうがよいが、顆粒体５０の一部が凹部３２Ｂ内に侵入する程度、言い換えれば、顆粒体５０が凹部３２Ｂ内に傾いて侵入できる程度の間隔Ｓに設定してもよい。さらに具体的には、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の間隔Ｓは、標準的な顆粒体５０の外径Ｄに対して、０より大きく３００μｍ以下、好ましくは、０より大きく２００μｍ以下、より好ましくは、０より大きく１００μｍ以下に設定したほうがよい。言い換えれば、標準的な顆粒体５０の外径Ｄに対する、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の間隔Ｓ（間隔Ｓ／外径Ｄ）は、０より大きく１．０以下に設定した方が好ましいが、１．０〜３．０に設定してもよい。 The interval S (see FIG. 8) between the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A of the concavo-convex portion 32 is not particularly limited, but the size of the content, for example, the granule 50 (see FIG. 11), that is, the maximum outside of the granule 50 It is better to set appropriately based on the diameter D (see FIG. 11). Specifically, the interval S between the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A should be set smaller than the maximum outer diameter D of the granule 50 so as to suppress the penetration of the granule 50 into the concave portion 32B. Good. For example, the interval S between the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A is preferably set so as to suppress the entire penetration of the granule 50 into the concave portion 32B as shown in FIG. The interval S may be set to such an extent that the granules 50 can enter the recesses 32B, in other words, the granules 50 can enter the recesses 32B with an inclination. More specifically, the interval S between the adjacent convex portions 32A, 32A is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 300 μm, preferably greater than 0 and less than or equal to 200 μm, more preferably, with respect to the outer diameter D of the standard granule 50. Is preferably set to be larger than 0 and 100 μm or less. In other words, it is preferable that the interval S (interval S / outer diameter D) between the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A with respect to the outer diameter D of the standard granule 50 is set to be greater than 0 and 1.0 or less. 1.0 to 3.0 may be set.
また、凹凸部３２における、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａ間の凹部３２Ｂの深さＨ（図８参照）は、隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａが製造時や使用時等に折れるなど破損しない程度で、より深く形成したほうがよい。例えば、凹部３２Ｂの深さＨは、２０μｍ以上、好ましくは、２０〜１００μｍに設定したほうがよい。なお、上述した凹凸部３２は、いわゆる梨地処理を含むものである。 In addition, the depth H (see FIG. 8) of the concave portion 32B between the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A in the concave and convex portion 32 is such that the adjacent convex portions 32A and 32A are not damaged such as being broken during manufacturing or use. It is better to form deeper. For example, the depth H of the recess 32B is set to 20 μm or more, preferably 20 to 100 μm. The uneven portion 32 described above includes so-called satin treatment.

The opening 40 is formed in a substantially semicircular shape in plan view. The opening 40 communicates with the inside of the container 2. The straight portion 40A of the opening 40 is located near the center in the radial direction, and the arc portion 40B is formed close to the outer peripheral surface of the trunk portion 6 and concentrically with the outer peripheral surface of the barrel portion 6. The opening 40 has a larger opening area than the outlet 8 provided in the first recess 24. As shown in FIG. 10, an inclined surface 42 is formed on the inner wall surface of the opening 40 continuously from its lower end so that the opening area gradually decreases upward in the axial direction of the body 6. Is done. The inclined surface 42 is formed at an inclination angle β with respect to the axial direction of the body portion 6. The inclination angle β is set within a range of 1 ° to 5 °. In the present embodiment, the inclination angle β is set to 3 °. The inclination angle β of the inclined surface 42 of the opening 40 is smaller than the inclination angle α of the inclined surface 30 of the outlet 8.
図１〜図４に示すように、天面部７には、開口部４０を塞ぐ第２蓋体４５が一体的に接続されている。第２蓋体４５は、板状であって、天面部７に設けた第２凹部２５に嵌合するようにその外形が平面視蒲鉾状に形成される。すなわち、第２蓋体４５は、直線部分４５Ａと円弧部分４５Ｂとが対向する平面視蒲鉾状に形成される。第２蓋体４５の直線部分４５Ａと、第２凹部２５の直線部分２５Ａとが一体的に接続されている。第２蓋体４５は、この接続部位を支点に回動自在となる。第２蓋体４５の円弧部分４５Ｂには、その全域から第２嵌合壁部４６が垂設されている。第２嵌合壁部４６の外周面で、その周方向中央部位には第２ツバ部４７が径方向外方に突設されている。第２蓋体４５の下面には、天面部７の開口部４０内に嵌合する半円筒状の第２密閉部４８が垂設されている。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a second lid 45 that closes the opening 40 is integrally connected to the top surface portion 7. The second lid 45 has a plate shape, and its outer shape is formed in a bowl shape in plan view so as to fit in the second recess 25 provided in the top surface portion 7. That is, the second lid body 45 is formed in a bowl shape in plan view in which the linear portion 45A and the arc portion 45B are opposed to each other. The straight portion 45A of the second lid 45 and the straight portion 25A of the second recess 25 are integrally connected. The second lid body 45 is rotatable about this connection site as a fulcrum. A second fitting wall portion 46 is vertically suspended from the entire arc portion 45B of the second lid body 45. On the outer peripheral surface of the second fitting wall portion 46, a second flange portion 47 projects outward in the radial direction at the circumferential central portion. A semi-cylindrical second sealing portion 48 that is fitted into the opening 40 of the top surface portion 7 is suspended from the lower surface of the second lid 45.
そして、本実施形態に係るキャップ１ａにて、容器２内の内容物を振出し口８から振り出す際には、まず、使用者が、第１蓋体３５の第１ツバ部３７に指を引っ掛けて、第１蓋体３５をその天面部７との接続部位を支点に立ち上げるようにして回動させることで、振出し口８から第１蓋体３５の第１密閉部３８を引き抜き、振出し口８を開放すると共に外部に露出させる。続いて、例えば、鍋等の上方で湯気が立ち上がっている場所にて、振出し口８が下方を向くように容器２を傾斜させ、容器２を数回振るようにすれば、容器２内の内容物が適宜量振出し口８から鍋内に振り出される。 When the contents in the container 2 are to be shaken out from the outlet 8 with the cap 1a according to the present embodiment, first, the user hooks his / her finger on the first flange portion 37 of the first lid 35. Then, by rotating the first lid 35 so that the connection portion with the top surface portion 7 is raised as a fulcrum, the first sealing portion 38 of the first lid 35 is pulled out from the outlet 8 and the outlet 8 is opened and exposed to the outside. Subsequently, for example, in a place where steam rises above a pan or the like, the container 2 is inclined so that the outlet 8 faces downward, and the container 2 is shaken several times. A thing is suitably shaken out into the pan from the amount outlet 8.
このように、振出し口８から内容物を振り出す際、振出し口８周辺に内容物が飛び散っても、図１１に示すように、湯気（水分）５１は凹凸部３２における凹部３２Ｂ内に入り込み、一方、内容物、例えば顆粒体５０は凹部３２Ｂ内に入り込み難いので、顆粒体５０の水分５１への付着が抑制される。これにより、天面部７の、振出し口８周辺の上面への顆粒体５０の付着が抑制される。また、振出し口８の内壁面にはその下端から連続して、胴部６の軸方向に対して、上方に向かって次第に縮径される傾斜面３０が形成されているので、使用後、容器２を元の姿勢に戻すと、外部に振り出されず、振出し口８の内壁面に残った内容物は、その内壁面の上部に沿って流下しつつ傾斜面３０に至るところで容器２内に落下する。 Thus, when the contents are spouted from the spout 8, even if the contents are scattered around the spout 8, as shown in FIG. 11, steam (moisture) 51 enters the recess 32 </ b> B in the concavo-convex portion 32, On the other hand, since the content, for example, the granule 50 does not easily enter the recess 32B, the adhesion of the granule 50 to the moisture 51 is suppressed. Thereby, adhesion of the granule 50 to the upper surface of the top surface portion 7 around the outlet 8 is suppressed. In addition, the inner wall surface of the outlet 8 is formed with an inclined surface 30 that is continuously reduced from the lower end thereof and gradually decreases in diameter with respect to the axial direction of the body portion 6. When 2 is returned to its original position, the contents remaining on the inner wall surface of the outlet 8 are not swung out to the outside, and flow down along the upper portion of the inner wall surface into the container 2 where they reach the inclined surface 30. Fall.
使用後は、第１蓋体３５をその天面部７との接続部位を支点に天面部７側に回動させて、第１蓋体３５の第１嵌合壁部３６を胴部６の第１嵌合凹部１５に嵌合させる。すると、第１蓋体３５の第１密閉部３８が振出し口８内に嵌合されつつ、第１嵌合壁部３６の内周面が第１係止部１８に押圧されるようにして位置決め、係止されて、振出し口８が密閉される。 After use, the first lid 35 is rotated toward the top surface 7 with the connection portion with the top surface 7 as a fulcrum, and the first fitting wall portion 36 of the first lid 35 is moved to the first portion of the body 6. 1 It is made to fit in the fitting recess 15. Then, the first sealing portion 38 of the first lid body 35 is fitted into the outlet 8, and the inner peripheral surface of the first fitting wall portion 36 is pressed against the first locking portion 18. , And the outlet 8 is sealed.
なお、図示しない計量スプーン等を用いて、内容物を使用する際には、第２蓋体４５の第２ツバ部４７に指を引っ掛けて、第２蓋体４５をその天面部７との接続部位を支点に立ち上げるようにして回動させることで、開口部４０から第２蓋体４５の第２密閉部４８を引き抜き、開口部４０を開放すると共に外部に露出させる。続いて、開口部４０から計量スプーンを挿入して、該計量スプーンにて容器２内の内容物をすくった後、開口部４０の直線部分４０Ａに計量スプーンを、その上端が接触するようにスライドさせる。これにより、計量スプーン内の過度な内容物が容器２内に落下して、その計量スプーンにより計量された内容物を鍋等に入れる。 When using the contents using a measuring spoon (not shown), hook the finger on the second flange portion 47 of the second lid 45 and connect the second lid 45 to the top surface portion 7. By rotating the part so as to rise up to the fulcrum, the second sealing part 48 of the second lid 45 is pulled out from the opening 40, and the opening 40 is opened and exposed to the outside. Subsequently, after inserting the measuring spoon from the opening 40 and scooping the contents in the container 2 with the measuring spoon, the measuring spoon is slid so that the upper end contacts the linear portion 40A of the opening 40. Let Thereby, the excessive contents in the measuring spoon fall into the container 2, and the contents measured by the measuring spoon are put in a pan or the like.
使用後は、第２蓋体４５をその天面部７との接続部位を支点に天面部７側に回動させて、第２蓋体４５の第２嵌合壁部４６を胴部６の第２嵌合凹部１６に嵌合させる。すると、第２蓋体４５の第２密閉部４８が開口部４０内に嵌合されつつ、第２嵌合壁部４６の内周面が第２係止部１９に押圧されるようにして位置決め、係止されて、開口部４０が密閉される。 After use, the second lid 45 is rotated toward the top surface 7 with the connection portion with the top surface 7 as a fulcrum, and the second fitting wall portion 46 of the second lid 45 is moved to the first portion of the body 6. 2 Fit into the fitting recess 16. Then, the second sealing portion 48 of the second lid 45 is fitted into the opening 40, and the inner peripheral surface of the second fitting wall portion 46 is pressed against the second locking portion 19. And the opening 40 is sealed.
以上説明したように、本発明の実施形態に係るキャップ１ａでは、天面部７であって、振出し口８周辺の上面に凹凸部３２が形成されているので、内容物（例えば顆粒体５０）を振出し口８から振り出す際、振出し口８周辺に内容物が飛び散っても、凹凸部３２においては、内容物の湯気（水分）５１への付着が抑制される。これにより、天面部７の、振出し口８周辺の上面への内容物の付着が抑制される。 As described above, in the cap 1a according to the embodiment of the present invention, since the uneven portion 32 is formed on the top surface portion 7 and the upper surface around the outlet 8, the contents (for example, the granule 50) are removed. Even when the contents are scattered around the swing outlet 8 when swinging out from the swing outlet 8, adhesion of the contents to the steam (moisture) 51 is suppressed in the uneven portion 32. Thereby, the adhesion of the content to the upper surface of the top surface 7 around the outlet 8 is suppressed.
また、本発明の実施形態に係るキャップ１ａでは、振出し口８の内壁面にその下端から連続して、胴部６の軸方向に対して、上方に向かって開口面積が次第に小さくなる傾斜面３０が形成されるので、内容物を振出し口８から振り出す際、外部に振り出せなかった内容物の、容器２内への落下を促進することができる。 Further, in the cap 1a according to the embodiment of the present invention, the inclined surface 30 in which the opening area gradually decreases upward with respect to the axial direction of the trunk portion 6 continuously from the lower end of the inner wall surface of the outlet 8. Therefore, when the content is spouted from the spout port 8, the content that could not be spouted to the outside can be promoted to fall into the container 2.
さらに、本発明の実施形態に係るキャップ１ａでは、天面部７に設けた凹凸部３２の隣接する凸部３２Ａ、３２Ａの間隔Ｓは、凹部３２Ｂ内への内容物（例えば顆粒体５０）の侵入を抑制する間隔Ｓに設定されるので、振出し口８から内容物が振り出されて、振出し口８周辺に内容物が飛び散っても、湯気（水分）５１は凹凸部３２における凹部３２Ｂ内に入り込み、一方、内容物（例えば顆粒体５０）は凹部３２Ｂ内に入り込み難いので、内容物の水分５１への付着がさらに抑制される。これにより、天面部７の、振出し口８周辺の上面への内容物の付着がさらに抑制される。 Furthermore, in the cap 1a according to the embodiment of the present invention, the interval S between the convex portions 32A and 32A adjacent to the concave and convex portion 32 provided on the top surface portion 7 is the entry of the contents (for example, the granule 50) into the concave portion 32B. Since the content is spouted from the spout 8 and the content scatters around the spout 8, the steam (moisture) 51 enters the recess 32 </ b> B in the concavo-convex portion 32. On the other hand, since the content (for example, the granule 50) does not easily enter the recess 32B, the adhesion of the content to the moisture 51 is further suppressed. Thereby, the adhesion of the contents to the upper surface of the top surface portion 7 around the outlet 8 is further suppressed.
さらにまた、本発明の実施形態に係るキャップ１ａは、シリコーン系表面改質剤を被覆または混練した合成樹脂製にて成形され、その表面が撥水性を有するので、特に、振出し口８周辺の凹凸部３２への水分５１の付着を抑制することができる。これにより、天面部７の、振出し口８周辺の上面への内容物の付着がさらに抑制される。なお、本キャップ１ａは、シリコーン系表面改質剤を被覆または混練した合成樹脂製にて成形されており、その表面の濡れ性の程度を定量化する接触角としてその角度がより大きいほうが好ましいが、例えば、接触角９０°前後、あるいは接触角９０°以上となるように、シリコーン系表面改質剤及びその配合率を適宜選択、設定したほうがよい。 Furthermore, the cap 1a according to the embodiment of the present invention is formed of a synthetic resin coated or kneaded with a silicone-based surface modifier, and its surface has water repellency. The adhesion of moisture 51 to the portion 32 can be suppressed. Thereby, the adhesion of the contents to the upper surface of the top surface portion 7 around the outlet 8 is further suppressed. The cap 1a is formed of a synthetic resin coated or kneaded with a silicone-based surface modifier, and the contact angle for quantifying the degree of wettability of the surface is preferably larger. For example, it is preferable to appropriately select and set the silicone-based surface modifier and the blending ratio thereof so that the contact angle is about 90 ° or the contact angle is 90 ° or more.
なお、他の実施形態に係るキャップ１ｂとして、図１２に示すように、容器２の口部３に装着される胴部６を有し、天面部７に振出し口８を有するキャップ本体５２と、該キャップ本体５２にヒンジ５３を介して連結されており、該キャップ本体５２に被冠された際、振出し口８を閉塞する蓋体５４と、を備え、このキャップ１ｂにおいて、天面部７であって、振出し口８周辺の上面に凹凸部３２を形成するようにしてもよい。 In addition, as shown in FIG. 12, as the cap 1b according to another embodiment, a cap body 52 having a trunk portion 6 attached to the mouth portion 3 of the container 2 and having a swinging mouth 8 on the top surface portion 7, A cap 54 that is connected to the cap main body 52 via a hinge 53 and closes the outlet 8 when the cap main body 52 is crowned. Thus, the uneven portion 32 may be formed on the upper surface around the outlet 8.
