Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a container for use in packaging and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In general, a container for wrapping an object has a predetermined object inside, thereby protecting the contents from an external impact and making it easy to transport. Therefore, the container usually has a structure having a container body and a lid for covering the opening, and the lid is opened, contents are taken in and out, and the lid is closed to surround the contents. ing.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 In these containers, as shown in FIG. 4, when the container is closed by covering the lid 4 on the open side of the container body 3, the container is tightened with fasteners 5 to prevent the container from being easily opened. ing. However, as shown in the figure, the fastener 5 is provided outside the container main body 3 and the cover 4, and the fastener 5 can be attached to an external object (a human body or a body other than a human) during transportation. Upon contact, the tightened state was released and the contents leaked to the outside. In order to solve this problem, it is possible to adopt a structure in which the fastener 5 cannot be easily unfastened. However, when the fastener 5 is opened, it becomes difficult to open the fastener 5, which causes another problem that the convenience as a container is reduced. Become.

[0004] On the other hand, the fasteners 5 provided outside the container body 3 and the lid 4 may come into contact with the human body and cause a wound, which is also a safety problem.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and the fastener does not protrude to the outside, can be easily opened and closed, and is easily opened and closed once closed. It is intended to provide a container that does not need to be done.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems The container of the present invention has an engagement groove on the inside of the lid, and has an engagement piece on the open side of the container body to engage with the engagement groove. Basic features.

[0007] A second aspect of the present invention is characterized in that an engagement groove is provided on the container body opening portion side, and an engagement piece that engages with the engagement groove is provided inside the lid portion.

[0008] According to these configurations, when the container body is covered with the lid and closed, the engagement groove and the engagement piece are engaged inside, and the container is not easily opened in the state as it is. On the other hand, if a force is applied from the outside and the lid is detached or expanded outward, the engaged state can be easily released and the lid can be easily opened. These engaging grooves and engaging pieces do not protrude to the outside, so that they are not injured by contacting the human body.

As shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B, the engaging piece 2 projects in a direction opposite to the opening side F1 of the container body 3 or the opening side F2 of the lid portion 4, as shown in FIG. If it is formed, the tip of the engaging piece 2 will bite into the engaging groove 1 even if a force is applied to detach the lid 4 from the container body 3 due to the weight of the contents 6, and the engagement between the two will occur. The condition becomes stronger. Further, in the case of such a configuration, the container body 3 and the cover 4 are once pressed so as to sandwich the container body 3 from the outside to the inside (or outside) of the container body 3 (or the cover 4) as shown in FIG. If the engaging piece 2 is pushed in (or pulled up, the state in parentheses is not shown), these engaging states are released and the container can be easily opened.

[0010]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of an embodiment of the present invention according to the container of claim 1. In the figure, portions denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIG. The typical configuration is the same as the conventional one shown in FIG.

However, the feature of this illustrated example is that, as shown in FIG. 1, an engagement groove 1 is provided inside the lid 4, and the engagement groove 1 is connected to the open side of the container body 3. This is the point that the engaging piece 2 is provided. The engagement piece 2 is formed so as to protrude in a direction opposite to the container body 3 open side F1. Since the container body 3 and the lid 4 are provided in a continuous state, the engagement groove 1 and the engagement piece 2 are provided on the opposite open side.

With such a configuration, when the lid 4 covers the container body 3 and the container body 3 is closed, the engagement groove 1 and the engagement piece 2 are engaged inside, and the container body 3 is easily opened in the state as it is. Disappears. On the other hand, if a force is applied from the outside and the cover 4 is deployed outward, the engaged state can be easily released and the cover 4 can be easily opened.

In particular, since the engaging piece 2 is formed so as to protrude in a direction opposite to the opening side F 1 of the container body 3, a force for detaching the lid 4 from the container body 3 by the weight of the contents acts. In this case, the tip of the engagement piece 2 bites into the engagement groove 1, and the engagement state between the two becomes stronger. Further, in the case of such a configuration, the container body 3 and the lid portion 4 are once pressed so as to sandwich the same, and the engaging piece 2 is pushed inward from the outside of the container body 3 as shown in FIG. If they are inserted, these engagement states are released, and the container can be easily opened.

In addition, these engaging grooves and engaging pieces do not protrude to the outside, so that there is no possibility that the engaging grooves and the engaging pieces come into contact with the human body and cause damage.

The container of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

[0017]

[Effect of the invention]

 As described above, according to the container according to claims 1 to 4 of the present invention, when the container body is covered with the lid, the engagement groove and the engagement piece are engaged internally, and In this state, it is possible to obtain an excellent effect that it is not easily opened. On the other hand, if a force is applied from the outside and the lid is detached or expanded outward, the engaged state can be easily released and the lid can be easily opened. Furthermore, these engaging grooves and engaging pieces do not protrude to the outside, so that they do not come into contact with the human body and become damaged.

On the other hand, if the engaging piece is formed so as to project in a direction opposite to the container body opening side or the lid opening side, as in the configuration of claim 3, the weight of the contents causes the container body to be disengaged from the container body. Even if a force is exerted on the lid to detach, the tip of the engagement piece bites into the engagement groove, and the engagement between the two becomes stronger. In such a configuration, the engaging piece is pushed (or pulled up) from the outside of the container body (or the lid) toward the inside (or the outside) by once pressing the container body and the lid so as to sandwich the same. By doing so, these engagement states are released, and the container can be easily opened.
