The container 1 is a positive pressure can filled with a beverage by sealing the can container 200 filled with the beverage with a cap 100. The positive pressure can has an internal pressure higher than that of the atmospheric pressure, and is manufactured by making the beverage itself a beverage filled with a gas such as carbonic acid or by filling the beverage with liquid nitrogen.

まず、図1を用いてキャップ100が被冠される缶容器200について説明する。図1に示すように、缶容器200は、飲料等を収容する所謂ボトル型容器である。例えば、缶容器200は、両面に樹脂製フィルムが積層されたアルミニウム合金や表面処理鋼板等の金属材料により構成される。缶容器200は、一方の端部が縮径された、異なる外径を有する円筒状に形成される。缶容器200は、一方の端部に、収容した飲料を排出する口部210を有する。口部210は、その外周面に、缶容器200の底面側から端部に向かって、顎部211、雄螺子部212及びカール部213を有する。 First, the can container 200 to which the cap 100 is crowned will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the can container 200 is a so-called bottle-type container for accommodating beverages and the like. For example, the can container 200 is made of a metal material such as an aluminum alloy or a surface-treated steel plate in which resin films are laminated on both sides. The can container 200 is formed in a cylindrical shape having a different outer diameter with one end reduced in diameter. The can container 200 has a mouth portion 210 at one end for discharging the contained beverage. The mouth portion 210 has a jaw portion 211, a male screw portion 212, and a curl portion 213 on the outer peripheral surface thereof from the bottom surface side to the end portion of the can container 200.

顎部211は、環状に突出することで構成される。カール部213は、雄螺子部212よりも小径に形成される。また、カール部213は、キャップ100の内径よりも小さく構成される。カール部213は、口部210の端部を1回以上折り曲げることで形成される。カール部213は、缶容器200に収納された飲料を排出する開口部を構成する。 The jaw portion 211 is configured to project in an annular shape. The curl portion 213 is formed to have a smaller diameter than the male screw portion 212. Further, the curl portion 213 is configured to be smaller than the inner diameter of the cap 100. The curl portion 213 is formed by bending the end portion of the mouth portion 210 one or more times. The curl portion 213 constitutes an opening for discharging the beverage stored in the can container 200.

次に、本実施形態に係るキャップ100を説明する。図1乃至図5に示すように、キャップ100は、キャップ本体111と、キャップ本体111内に別体に設けられた密封部材112と、を備えている。 Next, the cap 100 according to this embodiment will be described. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the cap 100 includes a cap main body 111 and a sealing member 112 separately provided in the cap main body 111.

キャップ本体111は、アルミニウム合金等の金属素材に樹脂皮膜層を形成した材料によって構成される。キャップ本体111は、薄肉の平板状の当該材料を絞り成形、ナーリング成形、ロールオン成形及びプレス成形等の各成形によってカップ状に形成される。 The cap body 111 is made of a material in which a resin film layer is formed on a metal material such as an aluminum alloy. The cap body 111 is formed into a cup shape by drawing, knurling, roll-on, press-molding, or the like, a thin flat plate-shaped material.

キャップ本体111は、円板状の天板部121と、天板部121の周縁部から垂下する円筒状のスカート部122と、を備えている。キャップ本体111は、天板部121及びスカート部122が、円環状、且つ、曲面状のコーナー部123によって一体に連続して構成される。 The cap body 111 includes a disc-shaped top plate portion 121 and a cylindrical skirt portion 122 that hangs down from the peripheral edge portion of the top plate portion 121. In the cap body 111, the top plate portion 121 and the skirt portion 122 are integrally and continuously formed by an annular and curved corner portion 123.

天板部121は、円板状に構成される。図1乃至図5に示すように、天板部121は、主面が平面状であって、その一部に凹凸部121aを有する。凹凸部121aは、例えば、天板部121の一部にプレス成形を行うことで形成される。凹凸部121aは、天板部121の一部に設けられた凹部及び凸部の少なくとも一方により形成される。即ち、凹凸部121aは、エンボス及びデボスの少なくとも一方の加工が施されることで形成される。 The top plate portion 121 is formed in a disk shape. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the top plate portion 121 has a flat main surface and has an uneven portion 121a as a part thereof. The uneven portion 121a is formed, for example, by performing press molding on a part of the top plate portion 121. The uneven portion 121a is formed by at least one of a concave portion and a convex portion provided in a part of the top plate portion 121. That is, the uneven portion 121a is formed by performing at least one of embossing and debossing.

凹凸部121aは、例えば、点字や製品情報等の機能性やデザイン等の意匠性等の情報等をキャップ本体111に持たせるために設けられる。即ち、凹凸部121aは、天板部121に、種々の情報や意匠性を持たせることで、密封部材112の機能を向上させる。本実施形態においては、図1及び図3に示すように、凹凸部121aは、天板部121の外面側から窪む星形の凹部により形成される例を用いて説明する。凹凸部121aの深さは、換言すると、天板部121の内面からの高さは、例えば、0.05mm〜2mmである。 The uneven portion 121a is provided, for example, to allow the cap body 111 to have information such as functionality such as Braille and product information and design such as design. That is, the uneven portion 121a improves the function of the sealing member 112 by giving the top plate portion 121 various information and design characteristics. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the concave-convex portion 121a will be described with reference to an example in which the concave-convex portion 121a is formed by a star-shaped concave portion recessed from the outer surface side of the top plate portion 121. In other words, the depth of the uneven portion 121a is, in other words, the height of the top plate portion 121 from the inner surface is, for example, 0.05 mm to 2 mm.

スカート部122は、一端がコーナー部123を介して天板部121と連続し、他端が開口して構成される。スカート部122は、天板部121側の端部から開口する端部まで、ベントスリット131aを有する複数のナール部131、雌螺子部132及びタンパーエビデンスバンド部133と、を備える。 One end of the skirt portion 122 is continuous with the top plate portion 121 via the corner portion 123, and the other end is open. The skirt portion 122 includes a plurality of knurled portions 131 having a vent slit 131a, a female screw portion 132, and a tamper evidence band portion 133 from the end portion on the top plate portion 121 side to the opening portion.

ナール部131、雌螺子部132及びタンパーエビデンスバンド部133は、天板部121と、ナール部131、雌螺子部132及びタンパーエビデンスバンド部133が成形されていない円筒状のスカート部122と、コーナー部123から構成されるカップ状の成形品をナーリング成形やロールオン成形等の加工により形成される。 The knurled portion 131, the female screw portion 132, and the tamper evidence band portion 133 include a top plate portion 121, a cylindrical skirt portion 122 in which the knurled portion 131, the female screw portion 132, and the tamper evidence band portion 133 are not formed, and a corner. A cup-shaped molded product composed of parts 123 is formed by processing such as knurling molding or roll-on molding.

ナール部131は、複数のベントスリット131aを有し、スカート部122の内周面から突出する。ベントスリット131aは、開封時に缶容器200内のガスを排出する切り込みである。ベントスリット131aは、ナール部131の一部に設けられ、外面側から内面側へと窪む凹凸部と、この凹凸部の上端部に設けられたガス排出用の切り込みを含む。 The knurl portion 131 has a plurality of vent slits 131a and protrudes from the inner peripheral surface of the skirt portion 122. The vent slit 131a is a notch for discharging the gas in the can container 200 when the can container 200 is opened. The vent slit 131a is provided in a part of the knurled portion 131, and includes a concavo-convex portion that is recessed from the outer surface side to the inner surface side, and a notch for gas discharge provided at the upper end portion of the concavo-convex portion.

ベントスリット131aの切れ込み側(スカート部122の他端側)の端部は、他方側の端部よりもキャップ100の径方向内方に突出している。複数のベントスリット131aは、切れ込み側の端部によりキャップ本体111に非接着の密封部材112を係止して、キャップ本体111内に密封部材112を保持する係止部を構成する。 The end portion of the vent slit 131a on the notch side (the other end side of the skirt portion 122) protrudes inward in the radial direction of the cap 100 from the end portion on the other side. The plurality of vent slits 131a form a locking portion in which the non-adhesive sealing member 112 is locked to the cap body 111 by the end portion on the notch side, and the sealing member 112 is held in the cap body 111.

雌螺子部132は、缶容器200の雄螺子部212と螺合可能に構成される。雌螺子部132は、缶容器200と共に成形される。即ち、雌螺子部132は、缶容器200に取り付けられる前のキャップ100の完成品においては成形されておらず、缶容器200と一体に組み合わされたときに成形される。 The female screw portion 132 is configured to be screwable with the male screw portion 212 of the can container 200. The female screw portion 132 is formed together with the can container 200. That is, the female screw portion 132 is not molded in the finished product of the cap 100 before being attached to the can container 200, but is molded when integrally combined with the can container 200.

タンパーエビデンスバンド部133は、キャップ100が缶容器200から離間する方向であって、且つ、キャップ100の軸方向で、缶容器200の顎部211と係合する。また、タンパーエビデンスバンド部133は、キャップ100の開封時に破断して、スカート部122から脱離するための破断部133aを有する。即ち、タンパーエビデンスバンド部133は、スカート部122の端部側に破断部133aを残してスリットが形成されることで構成され、雌螺子部132と同様に、缶容器200と一体に組み合わされたときに、缶容器200の顎部211の形状に賦形されることで、顎部211に係合する。 The tamper evidence band portion 133 engages with the jaw portion 211 of the can container 200 in the direction in which the cap 100 is separated from the can container 200 and in the axial direction of the cap 100. Further, the tamper evidence band portion 133 has a broken portion 133a for breaking when the cap 100 is opened and detaching from the skirt portion 122. That is, the tamper evidence band portion 133 is configured by forming a slit leaving the broken portion 133a on the end side of the skirt portion 122, and is integrally combined with the can container 200 like the female screw portion 132. Occasionally, it engages with the jaw portion 211 by being shaped into the shape of the jaw portion 211 of the can container 200.

密封部材112は、キャップ本体111と別体に構成され、キャップ本体111に非接着である。密封部材112は、キャップ本体111のスカート部122に設けられたナール部131の内接円の径よりも大径の外径を有する円板状である。密封部材112は、スカート部122の内周面から径方向に突出するナール部131のベントスリット131aと、キャップ本体111の軸方向で係合することで、キャップ本体111に一体に設けられる。 The sealing member 112 is configured separately from the cap body 111 and is not adhered to the cap body 111. The sealing member 112 has a disc shape having an outer diameter larger than the diameter of the inscribed circle of the knurl portion 131 provided on the skirt portion 122 of the cap body 111. The sealing member 112 is integrally provided with the cap body 111 by engaging with the vent slit 131a of the knurl portion 131 protruding in the radial direction from the inner peripheral surface of the skirt portion 122 in the axial direction of the cap body 111.

例えば、密封部材112は、図1、図3及び図5に示すように、円板状の摺動層141と、摺動層141に一体に積層された円板状の密封層142と、を備えている。密封部材112は、摺動層141及び密封層142が異なる合成樹脂で形成される。密封部材112は、摺動層141に密封層142が一体的に積層される。例えば、密封部材112は、図1及び図3に示すように、厚さが一様な平板部112aと、天板部121側の外周縁の外面が曲面で構成された曲面部112bと、平板部112a及び曲面部112bの間に設けられた平板部112aよりも肉厚な厚肉部112cと、を有する。換言すると、密封部材112は、円板状であり、天板部121側の稜部が所定の曲率の曲面で構成される。なお、厚肉部112cは、例えば、図1に示すように、密封部材112の外周側の口部210に当接する領域に存する。厚肉部112cにおいて、密封層142は、密封部材112の中央側である平板部112aよりも厚さが厚く、摺動層141は、平板部112aと厚さが同一か、又は、厚さが薄い。 For example, as shown in FIGS. 1, 3 and 5, the sealing member 112 includes a disk-shaped sliding layer 141 and a disk-shaped sealing layer 142 integrally laminated on the sliding layer 141. I have. In the sealing member 112, the sliding layer 141 and the sealing layer 142 are made of different synthetic resins. In the sealing member 112, the sealing layer 142 is integrally laminated on the sliding layer 141. For example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the sealing member 112 includes a flat plate portion 112a having a uniform thickness, a curved surface portion 112b in which the outer surface of the outer peripheral edge on the top plate portion 121 side is a curved surface, and a flat plate portion. It has a thick portion 112c that is thicker than the flat plate portion 112a provided between the portion 112a and the curved surface portion 112b. In other words, the sealing member 112 has a disk shape, and the ridge portion on the top plate portion 121 side is formed of a curved surface having a predetermined curvature. As shown in FIG. 1, the thick portion 112c exists in a region that comes into contact with the mouth portion 210 on the outer peripheral side of the sealing member 112, for example. In the thick portion 112c, the sealing layer 142 is thicker than the flat plate portion 112a on the central side of the sealing member 112, and the sliding layer 141 is the same thickness as or has the same thickness as the flat plate portion 112a. thin.

摺動層141は、密封層142よりも相対的に硬度が高い(硬い)樹脂材料によって構成される。また、摺動層141は、キャップ本体111の樹脂皮膜層と接着性及び粘着性を有さない樹脂材料により構成される。即ち、摺動層141は、天板部121と非接着であり、そして、天板部121と接触した状態で天板部121を摺動する。 The sliding layer 141 is made of a resin material having a relatively higher hardness (harder) than the sealing layer 142. Further, the sliding layer 141 is made of a resin material having neither adhesiveness nor adhesiveness with the resin film layer of the cap body 111. That is, the sliding layer 141 is not adhered to the top plate portion 121, and slides on the top plate portion 121 in a state of being in contact with the top plate portion 121.

摺動層141に用いられる樹脂材料は、ポリプロピレン樹脂やポリエチレン樹脂等のオレフィン系樹脂、ポリエチレンテレフタレート等のポリエステル系樹脂、スチレン系樹脂、アクリル系樹脂等が上げられる。本実施形態においては、摺動層141は、例えば、ポリプロピレン樹脂によって構成される。なお、摺動層141に用いられる樹脂材料には、顔料、滑剤、軟化剤、可塑剤等を適宜添加することができる。また、本実施形態における例では、摺動層141の硬度は、JIS−K7215によるデュロメータD硬さでD10〜D70である。より好ましくは、摺動層141の硬度は、JIS−K7215によるデュロメータD硬さでD40〜D65である。なお、摺動層141の硬度は、可塑剤等の添加剤の量の変更や、樹脂材料を共重合化したり、他の樹脂材料をブレンドしたりすることで変化させることができる。 Examples of the resin material used for the sliding layer 141 include olefin resins such as polypropylene resin and polyethylene resin, polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, styrene resins, and acrylic resins. In the present embodiment, the sliding layer 141 is made of, for example, polypropylene resin. Pigments, lubricants, softeners, plasticizers and the like can be appropriately added to the resin material used for the sliding layer 141. Further, in the example of the present embodiment, the hardness of the sliding layer 141 is D10 to D70 in terms of the durometer D hardness according to JIS-K7215.

The second flat plate portion 142a, together with the first flat plate portion 141a, constitutes the flat plate portion 112a of the sealing member 112. In this embodiment, the first flat plate portion 141a and the second flat plate portion 142a are set to have the same thickness.

第2曲面部142bは、例えば、第2平板部142aのカール部213と対向する主面と面一の主面を有する。第2曲面部142bは、口部210のカール部213と対向する部位よりも外周側から外周縁までの部分の厚さが、外周縁に向かって厚さが漸次減少して構成される。第2曲面部142bは、第1曲面部141b及び突起部141c上に積層される。第2曲面部142bは、第1曲面部141b及び突起部141cとともに、密封部材112の曲面部112bを構成する。 The second curved surface portion 142b has, for example, a main surface flush with the main surface of the second flat surface portion 142a facing the curl portion 213. The second curved surface portion 142b is configured such that the thickness of the portion of the mouth portion 210 from the outer peripheral side to the outer peripheral edge of the portion facing the curl portion 213 of the mouth portion 210 gradually decreases toward the outer peripheral edge. The second curved surface portion 142b is laminated on the first curved surface portion 141b and the protrusion 141c. The second curved surface portion 142b constitutes the curved surface portion 112b of the sealing member 112 together with the first curved surface portion 141b and the protrusion portion 141c.

窪み142cは、天板部121を上に向けた状態でキャップ100を配置し、密封部材112が天板部121よりも下方に落下した際に、ベントスリット131aと当接する。窪み142cは、例えば、断面が半円状の環状の窪みである。厚肉部142dは、第2平板部142a及び薄肉部141dよりも厚肉に形成される。厚肉部142dは、薄肉部141dとともに、密封部材112の厚肉部112cを構成する。 The recess 142c is in contact with the vent slit 131a when the cap 100 is arranged with the top plate portion 121 facing upward and the sealing member 112 falls below the top plate portion 121. The recess 142c is, for example, an annular recess having a semicircular cross section. The thick portion 142d is formed to be thicker than the second flat plate portion 142a and the thin portion 141d. The thick portion 142d, together with the thin portion 141d, constitutes the thick portion 112c of the sealing member 112.

摺動層141及び密封層142は、第1曲面部141b、突起部141c及び第2曲面部142bがそれぞれ第1平板部141a及び第2平板部142aよりも薄く構成される。 The sliding layer 141 and the sealing layer 142 are configured such that the first curved surface portion 141b, the protruding portion 141c, and the second curved surface portion 142b are thinner than the first flat plate portion 141a and the second flat plate portion 142a, respectively.

このような密封部材112は、例えば、図6に示すように、その一部に、天板部121に設けられる凹凸部121aと同形状に摺動層141及び密封層142が凹凸する変形部112dを有する。この変形部112dは、塑性的に変形しており、凹凸部121aと接していない状態でも変形部112dとしての形状が維持されている。なお、変形部112dは、密封部材112の厚みや材料の硬度等によっては、摺動層141側の窪みの深さに比べて、密封層142側での突出度合いは小さくなってもよい。また、変形部112dは、摺動層141側で窪むだけで、密封層142側では突出していなくてもよい。すなわち、摺動層141のみが変形していてもよい。 As shown in FIG. 6, such a sealing member 112 has a deformed portion 112d in which the sliding layer 141 and the sealing layer 142 have irregularities in the same shape as the concave-convex portion 121a provided on the top plate portion 121. Has. The deformed portion 112d is plastically deformed, and the shape of the deformed portion 112d is maintained even when the deformed portion 112d is not in contact with the uneven portion 121a. Depending on the thickness of the sealing member 112, the hardness of the material, and the like, the deformed portion 112d may have a smaller degree of protrusion on the sealing layer 142 side than the depth of the recess on the sliding layer 141 side. Further, the deformed portion 112d is only recessed on the sliding layer 141 side and does not have to protrude on the sealing layer 142 side. That is, only the sliding layer 141 may be deformed.

また、密封部材112に用いられる樹脂材料、即ち、摺動層141及び密封層142に用いられる樹脂材料は、例えば、キャップ100が缶容器200に被冠され、内容物が充填された容器1のレトルト処理等の加熱殺菌処理を行う環境下において、容器1の内圧及び温度等によって、加熱され、そして天板部121の凹凸部121aに密着されることで密封部材112に変形部112dが成形(転写)できる樹脂材料が用いられる。 Further, the resin material used for the sealing member 112, that is, the resin material used for the sliding layer 141 and the sealing layer 142, is, for example, the container 1 in which the cap 100 is covered with the can container 200 and the contents are filled. In an environment where heat sterilization treatment such as retort treatment is performed, the deformed portion 112d is formed on the sealing member 112 by being heated by the internal pressure and temperature of the container 1 and being brought into close contact with the uneven portion 121a of the top plate portion 121. A resin material that can be transferred) is used.

変形部112dは、凹凸部121aと同様に、例えば、点字や製品情報表示等の機能性やデザイン等の意匠性等の情報を密封部材112に持たせるために設けられる。即ち、変形部112dは、密封部材112に、種々の情報や意匠性を持たせることで、密封部材112の機能を向上させる。 Similar to the uneven portion 121a, the deformed portion 112d is provided to give the sealing member 112 information such as functionality such as Braille and product information display and design such as design. That is, the deformed portion 112d improves the function of the sealing member 112 by giving the sealing member 112 various information and design.

このように構成されたキャップ100の製造方法及び容器1の製造方法を図7及び図8を用いて説明する。 The manufacturing method of the cap 100 and the manufacturing method of the container 1 configured in this manner will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8.

先ず図7を用いてキャップ100の製造方法を説明する。例えば、シェルプレス装置等により、シート状の金属材料をしぼり加工し、天板部121と、ナール部131、雌螺子部132及びタンパーエビデンスバンド部133が成形されていない円筒状のスカート部122と、コーナー部123とから構成されるカップ状の成形品を成形する(ステップST1)。次いで、摺動層成形装置により、成形品の天板部121内面上に軟化した樹脂材料を供給し、供給した樹脂材料を賦形することで、摺動層141を成形する(ステップST2)。 First, a method of manufacturing the cap 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 7. For example, a sheet-shaped metal material is squeezed by a shell press device or the like, and a top plate portion 121 and a cylindrical skirt portion 122 in which the knurl portion 131, the female screw portion 132, and the tamper evidence band portion 133 are not formed are formed. , A cup-shaped molded product composed of the corner portion 123 is molded (step ST1). Next, the sliding layer 141 is molded by supplying the softened resin material onto the inner surface of the top plate portion 121 of the molded product by the sliding layer molding apparatus and shaping the supplied resin material (step ST2).

次いで密封層成形装置により、成形品内の摺動層141上に軟化した樹脂材料を供給し、供給した樹脂材料を賦形することで、密封層142を成形する(ステップST3)。これにより、成形品内に密封部材112が成形される。 Next, the sealed layer 142 is molded by supplying the softened resin material onto the sliding layer 141 in the molded product by the sealing layer molding apparatus and shaping the supplied resin material (step ST3). As a result, the sealing member 112 is molded in the molded product.

次いで、密封部材を搬送する搬送装置等により、成形品内の密封部材112を取り出す(ステップST4)。次いで、成形品加工装置等により、成形品のスカート部122にナール部131、タンパーエビデンスバンド部133を成形する第1成形を行う(ステップST5)。次いで、成形品加工装置等により、天板部121に凹凸部121aを成形する第2成形を行う(ステップST6)。なお、第1成形及び第2成形は同時に行っても良いし、順番を逆にしても良い。これらの工程によりキャップ本体111が成形される。 Next, the sealing member 112 in the molded product is taken out by a transport device or the like that conveys the sealing member (step ST4). Next, the first molding is performed by molding the skirt portion 122 of the molded product with the knurl portion 131 and the tamper evidence band portion 133 by a molded product processing device or the like (step ST5). Next, a second molding is performed in which the uneven portion 121a is molded on the top plate portion 121 by a molded product processing device or the like (step ST6). The first molding and the second molding may be performed at the same time, or the order may be reversed. The cap body 111 is formed by these steps.

次いで、搬送装置等によってキャップ本体111内に密封部材112を挿入する(ステップST7)。この際、密封部材112の周縁部は、ベントスリット131aを乗り越えて、天板部121に接するように挿入される。なお、キャップ本体111内に挿入される密封部材112は、他のキャップ本体111で成形された密封部材112であってもよく、自身の内部で成形された密封部材112であってもよい。 Next, the sealing member 112 is inserted into the cap body 111 by a transport device or the like (step ST7). At this time, the peripheral edge portion of the sealing member 112 is inserted so as to get over the vent slit 131a and come into contact with the top plate portion 121. The sealing member 112 inserted into the cap body 111 may be a sealing member 112 formed by another cap body 111, or may be a sealing member 112 formed inside itself.

キャップ本体111内に密封部材112が挿入されることで、キャップ100が製造される。次いで、キャップ100が収集部へ収集され、一定数のキャップ100が収集部へ収集されたら、キャップ100は、次工程である、検査・梱包工程へ搬送される。 The cap 100 is manufactured by inserting the sealing member 112 into the cap body 111. Next, when the cap 100 is collected in the collecting unit and a certain number of caps 100 are collected in the collecting unit, the cap 100 is transported to the inspection / packing process, which is the next process.

次に、図8を用いて容器1の製造方法を説明する。まず、缶容器200内に、飲料等及び液体窒素等の内容物を充填する(ステップST11)。次に、缶容器200の口部210の先端部であるカール部213と密封部材112の密封層142とが接触するように、缶容器200にキャップ100を被せ、缶容器200にキャップ100を配置する(ステップST12)。 Next, a method of manufacturing the container 1 will be described with reference to FIG. First, the can container 200 is filled with contents such as a beverage and liquid nitrogen (step ST11). Next, the can container 200 is covered with the cap 100 so that the curl portion 213, which is the tip of the mouth portion 210 of the can container 200, and the sealing layer 142 of the sealing member 112 are in contact with each other, and the cap 100 is placed on the can container 200. (Step ST12).

次に、キャップ100を缶容器200の口部210に巻締固着する(ステップST13)。巻締固着は、キャップ本体111の天板部121に荷重を掛け、且つ、コーナー部123を缶容器200に向かって絞り成形しながら、スカート部122をロールオン成形し、キャップ100のスカート部122に雌螺子部132を成形することで行われる。これにより、缶容器200が密封される。また、このとき、缶容器200内が陽圧となる。 Next, the cap 100 is wound and fixed to the mouth 210 of the can container 200 (step ST13). In the winding tightening, a load is applied to the top plate portion 121 of the cap body 111, and the skirt portion 122 is roll-on molded while the corner portion 123 is drawn toward the can container 200 to form the skirt portion 122 of the cap 100. This is done by molding the female screw portion 132. As a result, the can container 200 is sealed. At this time, the pressure inside the can container 200 becomes positive.

次に、缶容器200を殺菌するために、キャップ100が缶容器200に巻締固着された容器1をレトルト処理する(ステップST14)。レトルト処理は、内容物によって条件が変化し、例えば、温度が110℃〜130℃で、時間が10分〜30分の範囲で行われる。レトルト処理後、容器1を冷却し(ステップST15)、乾燥させる(ステップST16)ことで、飲料が充填された陽圧缶である容器1が製造される。なお、レトルト処理時において、密封部材112は、加熱及び加圧され、その後冷却されることで、凹凸部121aの形状が転写され、変形部112dが形成される。また、冷却及び乾燥は同じ工程で行っても良い。また、缶容器200の殺菌処理としては、レトルト処理ではなく、内容物を70℃〜95℃程度の高温で熱間充填し、缶容器200を横倒しにすることで殺菌したり、缶容器200に70℃〜95℃程度の熱水を掛けて殺菌したりしてもよい。このような殺菌処理によってキャップ100を加熱することでも変形部112dを形成することができる。 Next, in order to sterilize the can container 200, the container 1 in which the cap 100 is wound and fixed to the can container 200 is retort-treated (step ST14). The conditions of the retort treatment vary depending on the contents. For example, the retort treatment is performed at a temperature of 110 ° C. to 130 ° C. and a time range of 10 minutes to 30 minutes. After the retort treatment, the container 1 is cooled (step ST15) and dried (step ST16) to produce a container 1 which is a positive pressure can filled with a beverage. During the retort treatment, the sealing member 112 is heated and pressurized, and then cooled to transfer the shape of the uneven portion 121a to form the deformed portion 112d. Further, cooling and drying may be performed in the same process. Further, as the sterilization treatment of the can container 200, the contents are hot-filled at a high temperature of about 70 ° C. to 95 ° C. instead of the retort treatment, and the can container 200 is sterilized by laying it sideways, or the can container 200 is sterilized. It may be sterilized by sprinkling hot water at about 70 ° C. to 95 ° C. The deformed portion 112d can also be formed by heating the cap 100 by such a sterilization treatment.

このように構成されたキャップ100は、天板部121に凹凸部121aを設けるとともに、密封部材112に変形部112dを設ける構成とし、変形部112dの形状は凹凸部121aに対応する形状とした。 The cap 100 configured in this way has a structure in which a concavo-convex portion 121a is provided on the top plate portion 121 and a deformed portion 112d is provided on the sealing member 112, and the shape of the deformed portion 112d is a shape corresponding to the concavo-convex portion 121a.

このような構成とすることで、密封部材112は、天板部121の凹凸部121aと同様に機能を向上させることができる。例えば、凹凸部121aを点字や製品状表示等の情報性やデザイン等の意匠性等の機能を持たせた場合には、密封部材112も変形部112dによって同様の情報や機能を持たせることができる。 With such a configuration, the sealing member 112 can improve the function in the same manner as the uneven portion 121a of the top plate portion 121. For example, when the uneven portion 121a is provided with functions such as information such as Braille and product display and design such as design, the sealing member 112 may also be provided with the same information and function by the deformed portion 112d. it can.

例えば、凹凸部121a及び変形部112dに、製造ロット等が判断できるようなマークとした場合には、キャップ本体111だけではなく、密封部材112も製造ロットが判断できる。また、例えば、変形部112dに意匠性を持たせた場合には、密封部材112の意匠性を向上できる。 For example, when the uneven portion 121a and the deformed portion 112d are marked so that the production lot or the like can be determined, the production lot can be determined not only for the cap body 111 but also for the sealing member 112. Further, for example, when the deformed portion 112d is provided with a design property, the design property of the sealing member 112 can be improved.

また、密封部材112はキャップ本体111に被接着であり、キャップ本体111と別体であることから、種々のデザインを施すことで、例えば、購入者の密封部材112の収集意欲をかき立て、結果、容器1に飲料が充填された製品の購買意欲をかき立てることも可能となる。また、季節やイベント等に応じて、キャップ本体111及び密封部材112にデザインを設けることも可能となる。 Further, since the sealing member 112 is adhered to the cap body 111 and is separate from the cap body 111, various designs can be applied to, for example, motivate the purchaser to collect the sealing member 112. It is also possible to motivate the purchase of a product in which the container 1 is filled with a beverage. It is also possible to design the cap body 111 and the sealing member 112 according to the season, the event, and the like.

また、キャップ本体111に凹凸部121aを設け、さらに、密封部材112にも変形部112dを設けることで、キャップ100は、内部及び外部の双方の意匠性を高めることができる。 Further, by providing the concavo-convex portion 121a on the cap main body 111 and further providing the deformed portion 112d on the sealing member 112, the cap 100 can enhance the design of both the inside and the outside.

また、例えば、凹凸部121a及び変形部112dの形状を円環状等に設定することで、天板部121に対する密封部材112の径方向の位置合わせを行うことができる機能を付与することができる。このため、一度開栓した容器1を再び密封するときに、密封部材112の厚肉部112cを口部210に位置合わせすることも可能となる。 Further, for example, by setting the shapes of the concave-convex portion 121a and the deformed portion 112d to be annular or the like, it is possible to impart a function capable of aligning the sealing member 112 with respect to the top plate portion 121 in the radial direction. Therefore, when the container 1 once opened is sealed again, the thick portion 112c of the sealing member 112 can be aligned with the mouth portion 210.

また、変形部112dは、密封部材112を変形させる構成であることから、密封部材112に用いる材料を増加させることを要さず、製造コストを増加させることなく、密封部材112の機能性を向上させることができる。これらのように、密封部材112は、変形部112dによって、種々の情報、機能、意匠等を持たせることで、機能を向上させることができる。 Further, since the deforming portion 112d is configured to deform the sealing member 112, it is not necessary to increase the material used for the sealing member 112, and the functionality of the sealing member 112 is improved without increasing the manufacturing cost. Can be made to. As described above, the function of the sealing member 112 can be improved by providing various information, functions, designs, and the like by the deformed portion 112d.
