BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container in which the cap does not deviate from the axis of the container body when the cap is put on the container body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a container of a size that can be held and contains contents such as a liquid seasoning, various devices have been devised in order to improve the usability of general consumers.
For example, in order to remove the cap from the container body by slightly twisting the cap, and to put the cap on the container body by pressing the cap from above the container body, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. Sho 62-4523.
As shown in the publication, a long groove in the circumferential direction of the container body is provided on each side of the shoulder of the container body, and a protrusion provided on the lower end inner surface of the four side wall of the cap is engaged with this groove so as to be detachable. There was something I tried to do.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] By the way, in a container for storing contents such as a liquid seasoning, in order to improve the cutting of contents at the time of pouring and to protect the contents when not in use. A pull-top inner plug having a tongue-shaped portion is attached to the mouth of the container body, and an inner ring that fits into the inner plug is also provided on the cap side in order to maintain the sealing property after opening. . However,
In the container having the above-described cap detachable type and the inner plug attached to the mouth of the container body, the cap 1 is supplied to the upper portion of the container body 2 as shown in FIG. At this point, the cap may become unstable and tilt when pushed by the capping device. When the cap is plugged as it is, the inner ring 10 of the cap 1 bites into the tongue-shaped portion 30 of the inner plug 3, There was a problem of damaging this. This point is also true when a general consumer puts a cap on during use, and when the cap is put on the container body, it tends to tilt, and if pressed as it is, the tongue piece of the inner plug was damaged. .

In view of the above circumstances, the present invention has an object to properly insert an inner ring into an inner plug when a cap is attached to a container body without damaging a tongue-like portion of the inner plug. The purpose is to be able to maintain the shape.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has a container main body 2 and a container main body 2.
An inner ring 3 provided at an opening of the container body, an inner ring 10 which is put on the upper part of the container body 2 and fitted into the inner plug 3;
It consists square side wall 11 includes upcoming cap 1 Tokyo, long grooves 21 in the circumferential direction provided in the shoulder four sides of the container body 2, a long projection to the circumferential direction is provided in four side walls 11 of the cap 1 1
In container 2 is engaged to be engaged and disengaged, as high as the surface of the groove 21 via a protrusion 23 at the upper position of the groove 21
Is plane and the cap guide recess 22 provided with the feature and Turkey be positioned such that the axis of the shaft core and the cap 1 of the container body 2 projections 12 of the cap 1 before the inner ring fitted contacts are aligned The above object is solved by providing a container having a cap positioning function.

[0006]

In the present invention, when the cap is placed on the upper part of the container body, the projection of the cap first comes into contact with the cap guide recess, so that the axis of the cap is aligned with the axis of the container body. By pressing down the cap, the inner ring fits properly into the inner plug, and each of the projections of the cap enters the groove of the container body and locks, so that the cap is fixed with the inner plug sealed. become.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described in detail based on one embodiment shown in FIGS. That is, in the shoulder 20 having a substantially octagonal shape as viewed from above the container main body 2, a groove 21 long in the circumferential direction of the container main body 2 is provided below the side surface 20 a at a position along the side surface of the container main body 2. is provided, circumferentially located at the lower end side inner surface of the four-way side walls 11 of the cap 1
A long projection 12 is provided so as to be detachably engaged with the groove 21.

In each of the side surfaces 20a,
The groove 21 is located at a position above the groove 21 via the protrusion 23.
Cap guide recess 22 in which the surface of the same height as the surface is provided. When the cap 1 is placed on the upper part of the container main body 2, the cap guide recess 22 once comes into contact with the projection 12, and the inner ring 10
And the axis of the axis and the container body 2 of the cap 1 before the fitting is positioned to align within. Since the positioning is performed in this manner, as shown in FIG.
Is properly positioned with respect to the inner plug 3, and in this state, the cap 1
, The inner ring 10 is fitted into the inner plug, and the protrusion 12 is aligned with the cap guide recess 22.
Then, after moving down and over the convex portion 23 on the groove portion 21, it enters the groove portion 21 to be locked, the inner plug 3 is sealed, and the cap 1 is fixed to the container body 2.

[0009]

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention,
A container body, an inner plug provided at the mouth of the container body, and a cap having an inner ring and a four-sided side wall which are placed on the upper part of the container body and fitted into the inner stopper,
In a container in which circumferentially long protrusions provided on four side walls of the cap are removably engaged with circumferentially long grooves provided on four sides of the shoulder of the container body, a convex portion is provided above the groove.
A cap plan having a surface at the same height as the surface of the groove portion through
An inner concave portion is provided , and the cap is positioned so that the projection of the cap before the inner ring is fitted and the axis of the container body and the axis of the cap are aligned, so that the cap is placed on the upper part of the container body. was the cap is inclined such a thing is that a no at this point. Therefore, the inner ring is appropriately positioned to correspond to the inner plug, and when the cap is further pushed in, the inner ring is fitted without damaging the tongue-like portion of the inner plug. Also, the cap guide recess can be formed by molding the container body without increasing the manufacturing cost at all, and it is possible to eliminate the damage of the conventional inner plug at low cost. It is.
