On the other hand, the discharge holes 38 are opened at the distal end surface and the proximal end surface of the cylindrical member 35, respectively, and the seasoning in the container body 32 welded to the proximal end surface side can be discharged from the opening on the distal end surface side. . The diameter of the discharge hole 38 is larger on the base end face side than on the front end face side as the diameter of the cylindrical member 35 changes. Further, a latching step portion 41 that is latched with a latch rod 45 of a plug member 34 to be described later is provided on the inner wall of the discharge hole 38 in the large diameter portion 40. The diameter of the discharge hole 38 in the peripheral portion of the latching step portion 41 is an intermediate diameter that is intermediate between the diameter of the small diameter portion 39 and the diameter of the large diameter portion 40.

栓部材３４は、排出孔３８を封止するためのものであって、蓋部材３３と同様、弾性を有する硬質の合成樹脂（ポリプロピレン等）によって円柱状に形成されたものである。
栓部材３４の先端側は、小径部３９における排出孔３８の径よりも若干小径に形成されているとともに、その断面が十字状となるように外周に溝４４、４４・・が刻設されている。該溝４４、４４・・は、調味料を排出する際に排出路として機能する。一方、栓部材３４の基端側は、小径部３９における排出孔３８の径よりも若干大径で、且つ中間径よりも若干小径に形成されており、排出孔３８を塞ぐ栓部４３となっている。該栓部４３の先端側（溝４４側）は、先端側へと徐々に小径となるテーパ面状に形成されている。また、栓部材３４の基端縁には、中間径よりも大径で、且つ大径部における排出孔３８の径よりも小径に形成された掛止鍔４５が設けられている。尚、栓部４３の上下方向の長さ（図６（ｂ）における上下方向の長さであって、基端縁から溝４４、４４・・までの長さ）は、排出孔３８における中間径の長さよりも長くなるように形成されている。また、栓部材３４の上下方向の長さ（図６（ｂ）における上下方向の長さであって、基端縁から溝４４、４４・・の先端までの長さ）は、排出孔３８の掛止段部４１から筒状部材３５の先端面までの長さよりも長くなるように形成されている（つまり、蓋部材３３を組み立てた際、栓部材３４の先端側が突出部として排出孔３８の先端面側開口から外方へと突出するように形成されている）。 The plug member 34 is for sealing the discharge hole 38 and is formed in a cylindrical shape by a hard synthetic resin (polypropylene or the like) having elasticity, like the lid member 33.
The distal end side of the plug member 34 is formed to have a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the discharge hole 38 in the small diameter portion 39, and grooves 44, 44,... Yes. The grooves 44, 44,... Function as discharge paths when discharging seasonings. On the other hand, the base end side of the plug member 34 is formed to have a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the discharge hole 38 in the small diameter part 39 and slightly smaller than the intermediate diameter, and becomes a plug part 43 that blocks the discharge hole 38. ing. The distal end side (groove 44 side) of the plug portion 43 is formed in a tapered surface shape that gradually decreases in diameter toward the distal end side. Further, the base end edge of the plug member 34 is provided with a latch rod 45 having a diameter larger than the intermediate diameter and smaller than the diameter of the discharge hole 38 in the large diameter portion. The length of the plug portion 43 in the vertical direction (the length in the vertical direction in FIG. 6B and the length from the base edge to the grooves 44, 44,...) Is the intermediate diameter of the discharge hole 38. It is formed to be longer than the length of. Further, the length of the plug member 34 in the vertical direction (the length in the vertical direction in FIG. 6B and the length from the base edge to the tip of the grooves 44, 44...) It is formed so that it may become longer than the length from the latching step part 41 to the front end surface of the cylindrical member 35 (that is, when the lid member 33 is assembled, the front end side of the plug member 34 serves as a protrusion part of the discharge hole 38). It is formed so as to protrude outward from the opening on the front end side).

このような調味料収納容器３１は、下記のようにして組み立てられる。
まず、栓部材３４を、その先端側（溝４４側）から排出孔３８の基端面側開口へと挿入し、掛止鍔４５が掛止段部４１に掛止するまで押し込み、排出孔３８を封止して、蓋部材３３を組み立てる。ここで、栓部４３は、小径部３９における排出孔３８の径よりも若干大径に形成されているものの、弾性を有する合成樹脂により形成されているため、所定の負荷をかけることで小径部３９における排出孔３８内へと押し込むことができる。そして、排出孔３８を、栓部４３と掛止鍔４５との二箇所で封止する。
次に、蓋部材３３基端面側の排出孔３８の開口を覆うように、醤油やソース等の調味料を充填した容器本体３２を溶着する。このようにして、組み立てられた調味料収納容器３１は、かかる状態で、弁当等に備え付けられたり、保管されたりする。 Such a seasoning storage container 31 is assembled as follows.
First, the plug member 34 is inserted from the distal end side (the groove 44 side) into the opening on the proximal end surface side of the discharge hole 38 and pushed until the hooking rod 45 is hooked on the hooking step portion 41, and the discharge hole 38 is inserted. The lid member 33 is assembled by sealing. Here, although the plug portion 43 is formed to be slightly larger in diameter than the diameter of the discharge hole 38 in the small diameter portion 39, it is formed of an elastic synthetic resin, so that the small diameter portion can be obtained by applying a predetermined load. 39 can be pushed into the discharge hole 38. Then, the discharge hole 38 is sealed at two locations of the plug portion 43 and the latching rod 45.
Next, the container body 32 filled with seasonings such as soy sauce and sauce is welded so as to cover the opening of the discharge hole 38 on the base end face side of the lid member 33. Thus, the assembled seasoning storage container 31 is prepared in a lunch box or stored in such a state.

そして、容器本体３２内の調味料を排出させる場合には、図６（ｂ）に示す如く、一対の箸１１、１１の先端を鍔部３６の裏面側に当接させた状態で容器本体３２を挟持するとともに、箸１１、１１を鍔部３６に押し当てながら、たとえば弁当箱の底板に栓部材３４の先端（溝４４側）を押し付け、栓部材３４を容器本体３２側へと押し込めばよい（すなわち、少なくとも栓部４３が中間径部へと完全に抜けるまで押し込む）。そのように、栓部材３４を押し込むと、栓部４３と掛止鍔４５との二箇所による封止が解除され、調味料は溝４４、４４・・を通って排出孔３８の先端面側開口から排出される。なお、調味料の粘度が高い場合には、栓部材３４を容器本体３２側へと押し込んだ後、さらに容器本体３２を箸１１、１１によって押圧・圧縮してやればよい。   And when discharging the seasoning in the container main body 32, as shown in FIG.6 (b), the container main body 32 in the state which made the front-end | tip of a pair of chopsticks 11 and 11 contact | abut on the back surface side of the collar part 36. The tip of the stopper member 34 (groove 44 side) is pressed against the bottom plate of the lunch box, for example, and the stopper member 34 is pushed into the container body 32 side while pressing the chopsticks 11 and 11 against the collar 36. (In other words, push in at least until the plug portion 43 is completely removed into the intermediate diameter portion). In this way, when the plug member 34 is pushed in, the sealing at the two locations of the plug portion 43 and the latch rod 45 is released, and the seasoning passes through the grooves 44, 44. Discharged from. When the viscosity of the seasoning is high, the container body 32 may be further pressed and compressed by the chopsticks 11 and 11 after the stopper member 34 is pushed into the container body 32 side.

以上のように構成される調味料収納容器３１は、箸１１、１１で容器本体３２を挟持し、そのまま栓部材３４を容器本体３２側へと押し込むことによって、容器本体３２に充填されている調味料を排出することができるため、手を全く汚すことなく調味料を排出することができる。また、栓部材３４によって排出孔３８を封止しているため、容器本体３２内において調味料を使用する直前まで新鮮な状態で保存できる。   The seasoning storage container 31 configured as described above has a container main body 32 sandwiched between the chopsticks 11 and 11, and the plug member 34 is pushed into the container main body 32 as it is, whereby the seasoning filled in the container main body 32 is filled. Since the seasoning can be discharged, the seasoning can be discharged without making the hands dirty at all. Further, since the discharge hole 38 is sealed by the plug member 34, the container body 32 can be stored in a fresh state until just before the seasoning is used.

さらに、所定の負荷をかけて栓部材３４の栓部４３を小径部３９における排出孔３８内に押し込んでいるため、自然に栓部材３４が容器本体３２側へと移動してしまう事態が起こりにくい。したがって、容器本体３２内の調味料を漏洩させることなく長期に亘って保存できる。加えて、栓部４３と掛止鍔４５との二箇所で封止しているため、容器本体３２内の調味料を極めて漏洩させにくい。   Further, since the plug portion 43 of the plug member 34 is pushed into the discharge hole 38 in the small diameter portion 39 by applying a predetermined load, it is difficult for the plug member 34 to naturally move to the container body 32 side. . Therefore, the seasoning in the container main body 32 can be stored for a long time without leaking. In addition, since the sealing is performed at two locations of the stopper portion 43 and the latch rod 45, the seasoning in the container main body 32 is extremely difficult to leak.

また、箸１１、１１の先端を押し当てるための鍔部３６を備えているため、栓部材３４を押し込む際に、箸１１、１１を鍔部３６に押し当てる反力を利用して栓部材３４を押し込むことができる。したがって、極めて容易に栓部材３４を押し込むことが可能であり、使い勝手が非常に良い。   In addition, since the hook part 36 for pressing the tips of the chopsticks 11 and 11 is provided, the stopper member 34 is utilized by utilizing a reaction force that presses the chopsticks 11 and 11 against the hook part 36 when the stopper member 34 is pressed. Can be pushed in. Therefore, the plug member 34 can be pushed in very easily, and the usability is very good.

さらに、栓部材３４の先端側外周に排出孔３８内への押し込み状態で排出孔３８の封止を解除する溝４４、４４・・が設けられているため、充填されている調味料を効率良く排出することができる。特に、粘度の高い調味料を排出する場合等に、この効果は顕著なものとなる。   Further, since the grooves 44, 44,... For releasing the sealing of the discharge hole 38 in the state of being pushed into the discharge hole 38 are provided on the outer periphery on the distal end side of the plug member 34, the filled seasoning can be efficiently used. Can be discharged. In particular, this effect becomes remarkable when discharging a seasoning having a high viscosity.

またさらに、蓋部材３３は、掛止段部４１と掛止鍔４５とが掛止するまで筒状部材３５の基端面側開口から排出孔３８内へと栓部材３４を押し込むだけで組み立て可能となっている。さらにまた、栓部４３の先端側がテーパ状に形成されているため、栓部４３の先端を小径部３９における排出孔３８内へと押し込みやすい。したがって、組み立て作業が極めて容易で、生産性の非常に高い調味料収納容器３１を提供することができる。
加えて、栓部材３４と筒状部材３５とが独立した部材であるため、何度でも繰り返しリサイクル利用可能であり、環境にもやさしい。 Furthermore, the lid member 33 can be assembled by simply pushing the plug member 34 from the proximal end surface side opening of the cylindrical member 35 into the discharge hole 38 until the latching step portion 41 and the latching rod 45 are latched. It has become. Furthermore, since the distal end side of the plug portion 43 is formed in a tapered shape, the distal end of the plug portion 43 can be easily pushed into the discharge hole 38 in the small diameter portion 39. Therefore, it is possible to provide the seasoning storage container 31 that is extremely easy to assemble and has very high productivity.
In addition, since the plug member 34 and the cylindrical member 35 are independent members, they can be reused any number of times and are environmentally friendly.

［実施例４］
図７は、実施例４の調味料収納容器５１を示したものである（なお、（ａ）は、調味料収納容器５１の外観を示した説明斜視図であり、（ｂ）は、調味料収納容器５１の使用状態を示した説明断面図である）。調味料収納容器５１は、調味料を収納するための容器本体５２と、箸１１、１１を押し当てるための鍔部５６を備えた蓋部材５３とによって構成されている。なお、実施例４の調味料収納容器５１と実施例３の調味料収納容器３１とは、蓋部材５３の基端縁に、円板状の鍔部３６に代わって、箸係止部５７を有する十字板状の鍔部（押当部）５６が設けられている以外は、略同様に形成されている。 [Example 4]
FIG. 7 shows the seasoning storage container 51 of Example 4 (note that (a) is an explanatory perspective view showing the appearance of the seasoning storage container 51, and (b) is the seasoning. It is explanatory sectional drawing which showed the use condition of the storage container 51). The seasoning storage container 51 includes a container main body 52 for storing seasonings and a lid member 53 having a flange 56 for pressing the chopsticks 11 and 11. In addition, the seasoning storage container 51 of Example 4 and the seasoning storage container 31 of Example 3 are provided with a chopstick locking part 57 at the base end edge of the lid member 53 in place of the disc-shaped collar part 36. It is formed in substantially the same manner except that a cross-shaped collar portion (pressing portion) 56 is provided.

蓋部材５３は、容器本体５２より硬質で弾性を有する合成樹脂（ポリプロピレン等）によって形成されており、基端縁に鍔部５６を一体的に備える筒状部材５５と、該筒状部材５５に設けられた排出孔５８を封止する栓部材５４とによって構成されている。   The lid member 53 is formed of a synthetic resin (polypropylene or the like) that is harder and more elastic than the container body 52, and includes a cylindrical member 55 that is integrally provided with a flange 56 at the base end edge, and the cylindrical member 55. The plug member 54 seals the provided discharge hole 58.

筒状部材５５は、その中心に、調味料を排出するための排出孔５８が貫通されたものであって、先端側は比較的小径な小径部５９に、基端側は小径部５９よりも大径な大径部６０に夫々形成されている。また、大径部６０の基端縁には、十字状に腕板を有する鍔部５６が延設されている。さらに、鍔部５６の周縁には、ガイド壁が下方へと一体的に立設されており、箸係止部５７を構成している。尚、鍔部５６の各腕は、箸１１、１１の先端を当接可能な程度の長さ及び幅を有している。   The tubular member 55 has a discharge hole 58 for discharging the seasoning at the center thereof, and has a relatively small diameter portion 59 on the distal end side and a smaller diameter portion 59 on the proximal end side. Each of the large diameter portions 60 is formed. In addition, a flange portion 56 having an arm plate in a cross shape extends from the base end edge of the large diameter portion 60. Further, a guide wall is integrally provided on the periphery of the collar portion 56 so as to constitute a chopstick locking portion 57. Each arm of the collar portion 56 has a length and a width that allow the tips of the chopsticks 11 and 11 to abut.

このような調味料収納容器５１は、実施例３の調味料収納容器３１と同様に、下記のようにして組み立てられる。
まず、栓部材５４を、その先端側（溝６４側）から排出孔５８の基端面側開口へと挿入し、掛止鍔６５が掛止段部６１に掛止するまで押し込み、排出孔５８を封止して、蓋部材５３を組み立てる。ここで、栓部６３は、小径部５９における排出孔５８の径よりも若干大径に形成されているものの、弾性を有する合成樹脂により形成されているため、所定以上の負荷をかけることで小径部５９における排出孔５８内へと押し込むことができる。そして、排出孔５８を、栓部６３と掛止鍔６５との二箇所で封止する。
次に、蓋部材５３基端面側の排出孔５８の開口を覆うように、醤油やソース等の調味料を充填した容器本体５２を溶着する。このようにして、組み立てられた調味料収納容器５１は、かかる状態で、弁当等に備え付けられたり、保管されたりする。尚、蓋部材５３に溶着された容器本体５２は、箸係止部５７によって略全体を覆われた状態となっている。 Such a seasoning storage container 51 is assembled as follows, similarly to the seasoning storage container 31 of the third embodiment.
First, the plug member 54 is inserted into the opening on the base end face side of the discharge hole 58 from the distal end side (the groove 64 side), and is pushed in until the latching rod 65 is latched on the latching step portion 61. The lid member 53 is assembled by sealing. Here, although the plug portion 63 is formed to be slightly larger in diameter than the diameter of the discharge hole 58 in the small diameter portion 59, it is formed of elastic synthetic resin. The portion 59 can be pushed into the discharge hole 58. Then, the discharge hole 58 is sealed at two locations, that is, the stopper portion 63 and the hooking rod 65.
Next, the container main body 52 filled with seasonings such as soy sauce and sauce is welded so as to cover the opening of the discharge hole 58 on the base end surface side of the lid member 53. Thus, the assembled seasoning storage container 51 is prepared in a lunch box or stored in such a state. The container main body 52 welded to the lid member 53 is substantially entirely covered by the chopstick locking portion 57.

そして、容器本体５２内の調味料を排出させる場合には、図７（ｂ）に示す如く、一対の箸１１、１１の先端を箸係止部５７に係止させ、鍔部５６の裏面側に当接させた状態で容器本体５２を挟持するとともに、箸１１、１１を鍔部５６に押し当てながら、たとえば弁当箱の底板に栓部材５４の先端（溝６４側）を押し付け、栓部材５４を容器本体５２側へと押し込めばよい（すなわち、少なくとも栓部６３が中間径部へと完全に抜けるまで押し込む）。そのように、栓部材５４を押し込むと、栓部６３と掛止鍔６５との二箇所による封止が解除され、調味料は溝６４、６４・・を通って排出孔５８の先端面側開口から排出される。   And when discharging the seasoning in the container main body 52, as shown in FIG.7 (b), the front-end | tip of a pair of chopsticks 11 and 11 is latched by the chopsticks latching | locking part 57, and the back surface side of the collar part 56 is shown. While holding the container body 52 in contact with the chopsticks 11 and 11, while pressing the chopsticks 11 and 11 against the collar portion 56, for example, the tip (groove 64 side) of the plug member 54 is pressed against the bottom plate of the lunch box. May be pushed into the container body 52 side (that is, pushed until at least the plug part 63 is completely pulled out into the intermediate diameter part). In this way, when the plug member 54 is pushed in, the sealing at the two locations of the plug portion 63 and the latching rod 65 is released, and the seasoning passes through the grooves 64, 64. Discharged from.

以上のように構成される調味料収納容器５１は、箸１１、１１で容器本体５２を挟持し、そのまま栓部材５４を容器本体５２側へと押し込むことによって、容器本体５２に充填されている調味料を排出することができるため、手を全く汚すことなく調味料を排出することができる等といったように、実施例３の調味料収納容器３１と同様の効果を奏することができる。   In the seasoning storage container 51 configured as described above, the container main body 52 is sandwiched between the chopsticks 11 and 11, and the plug member 54 is pushed into the container main body 52 side as it is, so that the seasoning filled in the container main body 52 is filled. Since the seasoning can be discharged, the same effect as the seasoning storage container 31 of the third embodiment can be obtained, such as being able to discharge the seasoning without making the hands dirty at all.

また、調味料収納容器５１は、容器本体５２を覆うような十字状の箸係止部５７を備えているため、箸１１、１１の先端を箸係止部５７に係止させた状態で容器本体５２を挟持することができる。したがって、たとえ容器本体５２が滑りやすくなっていたとしても調味料収納容器５１を落としてしまうといった事態を防止することができる。さらに、鍔部５６及び箸係止部５７が十字状に形成されているため、箸１１、１１の先端と箸係止部５７との係止を二方向から可能としており、使い勝手が非常に良い。   Further, the seasoning storage container 51 includes a chopstick locking portion 57 that has a cross shape so as to cover the container main body 52, so that the container is kept in a state where the tips of the chopsticks 11 and 11 are locked to the chopstick locking portion 57. The main body 52 can be clamped. Therefore, even if the container main body 52 is slippery, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the seasoning storage container 51 is dropped. Furthermore, since the collar portion 56 and the chopstick locking portion 57 are formed in a cross shape, the tip of the chopsticks 11 and 11 and the chopstick locking portion 57 can be locked from two directions, which is very convenient to use. .

加えて、箸係止部５７により容器本体５２が保護された状態となるため、何らかのはずみに容器本体５２が傷つき、充填されていた調味料が漏洩してしまうといった事態も防止することができる。   In addition, since the container main body 52 is protected by the chopstick locking portion 57, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the container main body 52 is damaged to some extent and the filled seasoning leaks.

なお、本発明の調味料収納容器の構成は、上記実施形態の態様に何ら限定されるものではなく、容器本体、箸係止部、排出孔、開閉弁、蓋部材、押当部、ガイド部等の材質、形状、構造、設置位置等の構成を、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で、必要に応じて適宜変更することができる。   The configuration of the seasoning storage container of the present invention is not limited to the aspect of the above embodiment, and the container body, chopstick locking portion, discharge hole, opening / closing valve, lid member, pressing portion, guide portion The configuration of the material, shape, structure, installation position, and the like can be appropriately changed as necessary without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

たとえば、調味料収納容器を実施例１や実施例２の如く構成する場合には、必ずしも排出孔に開閉弁を設ける必要はなく、排出孔を細い管状に形成して容器本体の非押圧時には収納される液体の表面張力によって漏洩を防止するように変更することも可能である。そのように、排出孔を形成した場合には、製造コストが安価となる、というメリットがある。また、排出孔に開閉弁を設ける場合でも、開閉弁の形状は、実施例１や実施例２の如き形状に限定されず、容器本体の先端際に水平な切り込みを入れることによって円盤状の開閉弁を設けることも可能である。   For example, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 1 or Example 2, it is not always necessary to provide an opening / closing valve in the discharge hole, and the discharge hole is formed in a thin tubular shape and stored when the container body is not pressed. It is also possible to change so as to prevent leakage by the surface tension of the liquid to be applied. Thus, when the discharge hole is formed, there is a merit that the manufacturing cost is low. Further, even when the opening / closing valve is provided in the discharge hole, the shape of the opening / closing valve is not limited to the shape as in the first and second embodiments, and a disc-shaped opening / closing is made by making a horizontal cut at the end of the container body. It is also possible to provide a valve.

また、調味料収納容器を実施例１や実施例２の如く構成する場合には、容器本体は、扁平な四角錐状のものに限定されず、ボトル状や楕球状のものでも良い。さらに、容器本体は、上部および前後の側面に蛇腹を設けたものに限定されず、蛇腹のないものでも良いし、上部（上面）や、前後あるいは左右の側面のみに蛇腹を設けたものでも良い。一方、調味料収納容器を実施例３や実施例４の如く構成する場合には、容器本体は、扁平な楕球状のものに限定されず、ボトル状、バレル状（樽状）のものとしてもよいし、動物や魚をかたどったものとして意匠性を向上させるようにしても何ら問題はない。また、特に実施例３の調味料収納容器にあっては、容器本体に波状部等の滑り止め部を設け、箸で挟持しやすい構成としてもよい。   Further, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 1 or Example 2, the container body is not limited to a flat quadrangular pyramid shape, but may be a bottle shape or an elliptical shape. Furthermore, the container body is not limited to the one provided with bellows on the upper and front and rear side surfaces, and may be one without bellows, or may be provided with bellows only on the upper part (upper surface), front and rear, or left and right side surfaces. . On the other hand, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 3 or Example 4, the container body is not limited to a flat oval shape, and may be a bottle shape or a barrel shape (barrel shape). There is no problem even if the design is improved as if it is shaped like an animal or fish. In particular, in the seasoning storage container of Example 3, an anti-slip part such as a waved part may be provided in the container body so that it can be easily held by chopsticks.

加えて、調味料収納容器を実施例１や実施例２の如く構成する場合には、箸係止部は、上記実施形態の如く、中空な半円錐状のものに限定されず、単なる半円状のリング等でも良い。なお、上記実施形態の如く、箸係止部を中空な半円錐状のものや中空な円柱状のものとした場合には、箸の先端の挿入や抜き取りが容易なものとなる、というメリットがある。   In addition, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 1 or Example 2, the chopstick locking portion is not limited to a hollow semiconical shape as in the above embodiment, but is merely a semicircle. A ring or the like may be used. In addition, when the chopstick locking portion is a hollow semi-conical shape or a hollow cylindrical shape as in the above embodiment, there is a merit that it is easy to insert and remove the tip of the chopsticks. is there.

一方、調味料収納容器を実施例３や実施例４の如く容器本体と蓋部材との２つの部材によって構成する場合には、それらの２つの部材を異なる材料によって形成する必要はなく、同一の材料によって形成することも可能である。   On the other hand, when the seasoning storage container is constituted by two members of the container main body and the lid member as in the third and fourth embodiments, it is not necessary to form these two members from different materials. It is also possible to form it with a material.

また、実施例３や実施例４の調味料収納容器では、栓部材の突出部を、溝を刻設することによって断面十字状に形成しているが、溝の刻設態様はその態様に何ら限定されることはなく、適宜変更可能である。また、必ずしも栓部材の突出部に溝を設ける必要もなく、突出部をさらに小径に形成するだけでもよい。   Moreover, in the seasoning storage container of Example 3 and Example 4, although the protrusion part of the plug member is formed in the cross-shaped cross section by engraving a groove | channel, the engraving aspect of a groove | channel is what is in the aspect. It is not limited and can be changed as appropriate. Further, it is not always necessary to provide a groove in the protruding portion of the plug member, and the protruding portion may be formed with a smaller diameter.

さらに、調味料収納容器を実施例３や実施例４の如く構成する場合、押当部の形状も、上記実施例に記載の鍔部の形状に限定されることはなく適宜変更可能である。たとえば、実施例３の調味料収納容器において、四角板状の鍔部を採用してもよいし、実施例４の調味料収納容器において、十字状ではなく、そのどちらか一対の腕のみとした細板状の鍔部を採用しても何ら問題はない。加えて、押当部を、筒状部材の基端に延設した鍔部とするのではなく、押当片として筒状部材の所定位置に突設したような構成としてもよい。   Furthermore, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 3 or Example 4, the shape of the pressing part is not limited to the shape of the collar part described in the above example, and can be changed as appropriate. For example, in the seasoning storage container of Example 3, a square plate-shaped collar may be employed, and in the seasoning storage container of Example 4, it is not a cross but only one of a pair of arms. There is no problem even if a thin plate-like collar is used. In addition, the pressing portion may be configured to protrude from a predetermined position of the cylindrical member as a pressing piece, instead of the flange extending to the proximal end of the cylindrical member.

さらにまた、調味料収納容器を実施例３や実施例４の如く構成する場合、蓋部材に容器本体を取り付ける方法も、実施例に記載の溶着に何ら限定されることはなく、粘テープや接着剤等により取り付けるようにすることも当然可能である。   Furthermore, when the seasoning storage container is configured as in Example 3 or Example 4, the method of attaching the container main body to the lid member is not limited to the welding described in the examples, and adhesive tape or adhesive Of course, it is also possible to attach with an agent or the like.
