A side plate having two insertion portions inserted from both sides into the gap between the flap portion and the side surface, and abutting against the outer surface of the flap portion in a state where the insertion portion is inserted into the gap. It is characterized in that the side plates are integrally arranged at both ends so as to face each other, and a finger hook portion is positioned above the flat surface when the insertion portion is inserted into the gap.

[0008]

The flat top container can be hung and held by the container hook having the above-described configuration through the insertion portion engaged with both flap portions of the flat top container and the side plate abutting on the outer surface of the flap portion. The flat top container is large, and its contents are heavy, such as liquid, due to its own strength made of resin. Even in the case of a certain large weight paper container, it is possible to hang the flat top container with the finger hanging portion and to obtain sufficient strength as a hanging hand. Furthermore, when the flat top container is hung and held with the finger hook portion, the side plate presses the flap portion against the flat top container. The hand can be prevented from detaching from the flat top container.

For example, a liquid heavy such as 4 to 5 liters of engine oil is stored.

As shown in FIG. 1, a container 11, which is a flat top type liquid paper container, has opposed side surfaces 11a, 11a.
b, and is formed of a paper cylinder having a rectangular cross-sectional shape having side surfaces 11c and 11d opposed to each other. A top seal portion 13 and a bottom seal portion (not shown) composed of (flat surface) 12 are formed. A folded portion 14 is located substantially at the center between the opposed sides of the flat surface 12.

By forming the flat surface 12, both side portions 11 of the container 11 are provided on both sides of the flat surface 12.
Both flap portions 15 (not shown) projecting toward the sides a and 11b and having the same substantially triangular shape are formed. Both flap portions 15 are folded downward, and both tip portions 15a (the other not shown) are adhered to both side portions 11a and 11b of the container 11 with an adhesive or the like.

Accordingly, a gap d is formed between the side flanks 11a and 11b and the flap 15 excluding the tip 15a.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the container hanger 10 has a thin plate-like side plate 16 and finger-hook portions 17 in which the side plates 16 are integrally disposed at both ends. And the like.

The side plate 16 has a plate portion 20 which comes into contact with the outer surface of the flap portion 15 when mounted on the container 11, and an insertion portion 21 formed below both ends of the plate portion 20 and inserted into the gap d. doing.

At both ends of the plate portion 20, there are formed step portions 22 which are located at the upper ends of the flap portions 15 and receive both sides of the flap portion 15. The step portions 22 have the side plate 16 attached to the container 11. At the same time, it is projected on the rear surface side, which is the outer surface side, by the same width as the thickness of the flap portion 15 and is inclined inward at the same inclination angle as the side edge of the flap portion 15 so as to face each other (FIG. 2A) , (B), (c)).

An L-shaped insertion portion 21 is formed below both ends of the plate portion 20 so that the leading ends are separated from the plate portion 20 so as to face each other and face inward while being continuous with the step portion 22. The distance between the distal ends of the insertion portions 21 and 21 is at least slightly larger than the width of the distal end portion 15a of the flap portion 15. The insertion portion 21 has a protrusion amount and a thickness that can be inserted into the gap d (see FIG. 2A).

Therefore, the side plate 16 is provided with the two insertion portions 21 and 21.
Is inserted into the gap d, and the plate portion 20 is
And at the same time, the flap portion 15 is fitted and locked between the two step portions 22, 22.

The finger hook portion 17 is formed in a thin band shape. By connecting both ends to the center of the plate portion 20 in the longitudinal direction, the both ends are attached to the side plate 16 when the side plate 16 is mounted on the container 11.
The side plates 16 are arranged so as to face each other such that the back surfaces of the respective surfaces 6 face each other (see FIG. 1).

In addition, the finger-holding portion 17 connects the side plate 16 to the container 1.
When it is mounted on the flat surface 12, it has a sufficient distance between the flat surface 12 and the flat surface 12 so that a finger can be hung and held on the finger hanging portion 17, and is formed to have a length bridging over the flat surface 12 in a chevron. ing.

The finger hook 17 is formed, for example, by integrally molding the side plate 16 and the finger hook 17. As shown in FIG. 3, the side plate 16 and the finger hook 17 are separately formed, and A locking projection 23 having a head whose diameter is enlarged is formed on a side surface of the portion 20, and a locking hole 24 into which the locking projection 23 can be fitted is formed at both ends of the finger hook portion 17.
May be integrated with each other by fitting them into the locking holes 24.

Next, the operation of the hanging hand of the container having the above configuration will be described.

First, the container hanger 10 is moved to the flap 15
By inserting the insertion portions 21 and 21 from both sides of the flap portion 15 into the gap d and lifting the insertion portions 21 and 21 upward, the plate portion 20 simultaneously contacts the outer surface of the flap portion 15. Flap 15 between the two step portions 22
Are engaged and locked (see FIG. 4).

At this time, since both sides of the flap portion 15 abut between the two step portions 22, 22, the insertion portion 21, 21 is inserted in a state where the plate portion 20 is located at the upper end of the flap portion 15.
Is locked in the gap d, and the container hanging hand 10 is integrally attached to the container 11. At the same time, the finger hook portion 17 is hooked over the top seal portion 13 in a mountain shape.

Therefore, the hanging hand 10 of the container is
The container 11 can be hung and held by holding a finger on the container 11 and holding it with a hand.

By the way, in the case of such a container 11, one of the flap portions 15 is peeled off from the side surface portion and then the front end portion 15a is formed.
Is cut and opened, and the contents are poured out from the opening and used. When the contents are still moved after use, the cut-off flap portion 15 is positioned on the side portion as before. Attach the container hanging hand 10, and
Can be moved by hand.

At the time of movement, even if the flap portion 15 is not attached to the side surface portion, the flap portion 15 having the insertion portion 21 on the back side is pressed toward the container 11 by the side plate 16 on the front side. The container 1

In particular, when the container 11 is moved by holding the container hanging hand 10, the side plate 16 is constantly pressed toward the container 11 by lifting the finger hook 17 upward. In addition, it is possible to effectively prevent the container hanging hand 10 from coming off. For this reason, even if the flap part 15 comes off from the side part during the movement, it is possible to prevent the hook 10 of the container from coming off.

By separately forming the side plate 16 and the finger hook 17 (see FIG. 3), the finger hook 17 can be removed at any time. It does not get in the way.

For this reason, the hanging handle 10 of the container can be securely locked to the container 11 and, together with its own strength made of resin, the flat top container is large and the contents are liquid or the like. Even in the case of a large heavy paper container, which is a heavy object, the flat top container can be suspended and held by the finger hook portion 17, and sufficient strength as a hanging hand can be obtained.

As another example of the container hanger 10, the container hanger 30 in which the plate portion 20 and the two insertion portions 21, 21 are positioned upside down, or the plate portion 20 and the two insertion portions 21, 21. 21 may be used as a container hanger 40 which is superimposed and positioned at the same position.

As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the container hanger 30 has a plate portion 20 and two insertion portions 21 and 21 whose positions are interchanged with each other. Are formed at a substantially central portion in the vertical direction of the flap portion 15 and have a shape and a size capable of receiving both sides of the flap portion 15. Therefore, the step portion 22 is inserted into the insertion portion 2.
1 is located substantially below.

Then, with the insertion portions 21 and 21 locked in the gap d and positioned at the upper end of the flap portion 15,
Is located substantially at the center of the flap portion 15, and the container hanger 10 is integrally attached to the container 11.

The other structure and operation are the same as those of the container
