DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0001] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention
It is convenient for displaying multiple cans at a store or carrying around
Improvement of can container packaging holder for sea urchin package
About. [0002] 2. Description of the Related Art Juices, coffee, beer and other beverages are filled.
Multiple (eg half a dozen) of sealed cans are bundled together
As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 as a packaging tool for packaging
A plastic packaging holder 1 having a shape is used.
Have been. FIG. 5 is a plan view, FIG.
Is a packaging form of the can 20 by the holder 1 (B in FIG. 5).
-B arrow view). Holder 1 includes canister 2
0 are formed in parallel, and the caps 10
Each of the top portions 10 is provided with a top end fastening flange of the can container 20.
The holding groove 11 for holding the portion 21 is provided. The holding
The groove 11 has an inward projection 12 (having a diameter D₁₂Is
Diameter D of tightening flange 21 of can container 20_{twenty one}Slightly smaller
I). The cap 10 of the holder 1 is connected to the can 2
0 and pressed downward, the top of the can
The end winding tightening flange 21 is provided with a projection 12 on the lower edge of the can holding groove 11.
Elastically expanded (diameter expansion) and fitted in the can holding groove 11
Be included. The projection 12 is the lower edge of the fastening flange 21 of the can container.
And elastically fits the can container 20 firmly into the holding groove 11.
Hold. One set held in each of the cap portions 10
Can container (half a dozen in the figure) is attached to the holder 1.
Can be carried through the handle 19. Ma
In addition, the can container 20 packaged in the holder can be twisted by hand.
It can be removed from the top portion 10 and provided for drinking.
Regarding the improvement of the can container packaging holder, various proposals have been made.
(No. 2-258570, No. 3)
-60265, Japanese Utility Model 4-97069, Japanese Utility Model 5-
No. 44859, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-95865, etc.). [0004] The can 20 is made of the same material.
From the request for cost reduction (especially the cost of can lid material)
The one with neck-in processing (tape on upper end side)
And the diameter D of the tightening flange 21_{twenty one}Reduced cans
Container) is widely used instead of the conventional straight can container.
It is used. The can container 20 has a top-winding collar portion.
21 caliber (hereinafter “top caliber”) D_{twenty one}Different kinds of
There is something. Conventional neck-in type cans
20 is a can lid diameter designation "206" type (top diameter: about 60.3
mm) occupied the mainstream, but recently the smaller diameter “20”
Type 4 (top diameter: about 57.1 mm) is also used,
02 ”(same diameter: approx. 54.0mm) cans will also be developed
Products of different can sizes, etc.
The fact is that it is being paid. For this reason, the can 20
To collectively package with the holder 1, the top diameter D_{twenty one}of
The diameter of the can holding groove 11 differs depending on the type of the different can containers.
More types of holders are required, increasing the cost of the holders
And the necessity of using differently for each size. Departure
Akira is a multi-can container with different can sizes (top diameter).
Offers a holder that can be used for batch packaging
It is. [0005] According to the present invention, a beverage or the like is filled.
Elastically grips the tightened flange 21 at the top end of the can 20
The cap portions 10 having the can holding grooves 11 are formed side by side.
In the can container packaging holder that has been
The part 10 includes a plurality of can holding grooves 11 (11_1,
11_2,11 _Three), But the diameter increases from the upper side to the lower side
It is characterized in that it is formed in multiple stages in a certain order. [0006] Each of the cap portions 10 of the holder 1 according to the present invention.
Is a plurality of can holding grooves 11 having different diameters (for example, “2
02 "," 204 ", and" 206 "
There are three types of retainers that can elastically retain the top fastening collar of the can container.
Holding groove 11_1,11_2,11_Three) Are provided in multiple stages
So, no matter what size the can 20 is,
The holding groove 11 having a diameter corresponding to the diameter (11_1,11_2,1
1_Three), The top end fastening flange 21 is fitted and held.
be able to. Can holding groove 1 of cap part 10 of holder 1
1 (11_1,11_2,11_Three), The fastening collar portion of the can 20
The fitting operation for holding the holding member 21 is shown in FIGS.
The same as when using a conventional holder
Apply cap section 10 to the top surface of can 20 and face down
It only needs to be pressed.
The fastening collar 21 is automatically set to a predetermined position corresponding to its diameter.
Holding groove 11 (11_1,11_2,11_Three). E
To remove the can container packed in rudder 1 from the holder,
What is necessary is just to grasp and twist the trunk | drum 23 of the can container 20, and the operation
Is not different from the case of the conventional holder. Hereinafter, drawings showing an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
It will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 shows a cross section of the holder 1 of the present invention.
FIG. 3 illustrates a cross section taken along line AA in FIG. 2. E
Each cap portion 10 of the holder 1 is provided with the cap shown in FIG.
Unlike a conventional holder, a plurality of can holding grooves 11 (three in the figure)
Holding groove 11_1,11_2,11_Three) Is formed in multiple stages

Function. The holder 1 of the present invention is a can container packaging member.
And reinforcing ribs 13 to increase the required strength and rigidity
Then, as shown in the drawing, a suitably shaped unevenness is provided on the plate surface.
This is the same as the conventional holder, and the peripheral hem
14 is also effective as a reinforcing means for the holder.
You. Also, the structure for attaching the handle 19 to the holder 1 is
The same as the conventional one, for example, the plate of the holder 1 as shown
A through hole 18 is provided on the surface so that a handle 19 can be attached.
Just do it. In addition, it is packaged collectively by the holder of the present invention.
The size of the can is large or small, that is, "202" type, "20
Regardless of the type of can, such as 4 "type or" 206 "type,
Since the diameter of the portion 23 is set to a fixed value,
1 array pattern of each cap unit 10 (adjacent cap
The distance between the parts 10 is the same as that of the conventional holder.
It does not need to be different. [0013] The holder for a can container packaging of the present invention has a top opening.
Multiple types of cans with different diameters (“202” type, “204” type,
`` 206 '' etc.).
Fits according to the type of can size, like a conventional holder
Prepare multiple types of holders with grooves, depending on the can size
It is not necessary to use differently, so the cost of the holder is low
To reduce the complexity of using different sizes
