[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a labeled container in which a label is attached to a container body.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a container with a label is formed by winding a label made of a heat-shrinkable film on which a product name, a design, an explanation of contents, etc. are printed on a synthetic resin container body filled with beverages or the like as contents. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-199415
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The above conventional container has a perforation for breaking the label in order to peel off the label after use, and the lower surface of the perforation to prevent the perforation from breaking and the label from being easily peeled off during use. Tape is attached to protect the perforation from breaking.
Therefore, there was a problem that the process for sticking a tape on a label surface increased.
[0005]
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention easily removes a heat-shrinkable shrink label or stretch label wound around a container or a label attached to a container with a simple operation. An object is to provide a container with a label that is made possible.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is a labeled container comprising a container body and a label attached to the container body as a labeled container, wherein the container body has a mouth portion, a shoulder portion, and a trunk portion. The container wall at the shoulder protrudes outward and has at least one bulging part that can be reversed by pressing , and a part of the bulging part is covered with a label. Adopt a featured configuration.
[0007]
In order to facilitate reversal of the bulging portion, a configuration is adopted in which a concave groove is provided at the boundary between the bulging portion and the container wall .
[0008]
In order to facilitate the peeling of the label, a configuration is adopted in which the label is a shrink label having a perforation for breaking .
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Next, 1st Embodiment of the container with a label of this invention is described with reference to drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the labeled container of the present invention is composed of a container main body 1 formed of PET or other synthetic resin, and a heat-shrinkable shrink label 2.
[0010]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the container body 1 includes a mouth portion 3, a shoulder portion 4, a trunk portion 5, and a bottom portion 6, and the shoulder 4 and the trunk portion 5 have a rectangular cross section or The shoulder portion 4 is formed with a plurality of bulging portions 7 protruding outward.
Almost half of the bulging portion 7 of the shoulder portion 4 in the axial direction and the whole or at least a part of the upper portion of the trunk portion 5 are covered with the shrink label 2.
The shrink label 2 is formed of a heat-shrinkable film in a cylindrical shape, and perforations 8 for breaking are engraved in the axial direction.
[0011]
In the case of a square bottle, the number of the bulging portions 7 is preferably on each surface of the shoulder portion 4;
The shape of the bulging portion 7 can be any shape such as a hemispherical shape, an oval shape, an elliptical shape,
If the bulging portion 7 is inside the outer peripheral surface of the trunk portion 5, the bulging portion 7 can be disposed regardless of the vertical position of the shoulder portion 4.
[0012]
Next, the effect of the labeled container of this embodiment is demonstrated.
As shown in FIG. 3, when the bulging portion 7 provided on the shoulder portion 4 is pushed with a finger as shown by an arrow, only the bulging portion 7 is inverted and a gap 9 is formed between the shrink label 2.
[0013]
When the finger can be inserted into the gap 9 and the edge of the shrink label 2 is sandwiched between the fingers and pulled downward from the container, the shrink label 2 can be firmly held and force is applied. It can be broken smoothly.
Therefore, the shrink label 2 can be easily peeled and removed, and the recycling of the container body 1 becomes easier.
[0014]
Moreover, since the bulging part 7 is provided in the shoulder part 4, it does not become obstructive when packing a container, and it can be arranged neatly without any trouble when it is displayed in a store.
[0015]
Moreover, since the shrink label 2 is coat | covered by the half of the axial direction of the bulging part 7 provided in the shoulder part 4, the bulging part 7 and the shoulder part 4 act as a stopper, and the shrink label 2 is upward. Does not move downward, and does not fall out.
[0016]
Next, another embodiment of the container with a label of the present invention will be described.
In the present embodiment, the bulging part can be reversed more easily.
In FIG. 4, 1a is a container main body and 2a is a shrink label.
A groove 10 having a certain width is formed at the boundary between the shoulder 4a and the bulging portion 7a. When the bulging portion 7a is pressed with a finger, as shown in FIG. The groove 10 is inverted with the boundary line between the shoulder 4a and the shoulder 4a as an axis, and further, the boundary line between the bulge 7a and the groove 10 is inverted as an axis, so that the bulge 7a can be easily inverted. Will be done.
[0017]
In each of the above-described embodiments, a container having a swelled portion around a shoulder is described as a container with a label, but the container has a cylindrical shape such as a box-shaped container, a cylinder, or a square tube. The container may have any shape as long as the container can be attached with a label, such as a container, cup-shaped or bowl-shaped container.
[0018]
The bulging portion protrudes from the container wall surface at a position corresponding to the edge of the label so that the edge of the label covers at least a part of the bulging portion.
[0019]
As for the label, the shrink label of each of the above embodiments is suitable, but other than that, it may be a plastic film or paper label that can be attached by an adhesive or a pressure sensitive adhesive.
Furthermore, a stretch label may be used depending on the shape of the container.
[0020]
When an adhesive or the like is used, only the peripheral part of the label is adhered, and the adhesive is not applied to the part corresponding to the bulging part.
When an adhesive is used, the adhesive may be applied to the entire surface including the portion corresponding to the bulging portion.
[0021]
When discarding the container, if the bulging part is pressed with a finger and inverted, the edge of the label can be easily peeled off from the bulging part, and a gap can be formed between the label and the bulging part surface. .
By inserting a finger into the gap, grasping and pulling the label, the label can be peeled off from the wall surface of the container.
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
Since this invention is comprised as mentioned above, there exists the following effect.
By providing a bulging part on the wall surface of the container body corresponding to the edge of the label and inverting the bulging part, a gap is formed between the label and the container. The label can be easily peeled off.
Further, by providing a concave groove at the boundary between the bulging portion and the shoulder portion, the bulging portion can be easily reversed, and the label can be easily removed.
[0023]
In the container with a label according to the first embodiment, since the bulging portion is provided on the shoulder portion and the shrink label is used, the bulging portion of the shoulder portion serves as a stopper for the covered shrink label. Since the label has a perforation, the label can be peeled off more easily when the container is discarded.
[0024]
Moreover, since the bulging part is provided in the shoulder part, it can be arranged neatly when displaying it in the store without obstructing the packaging of the container.
