Description

本発明は、容器の胴部に減圧吸収パネルを備える合成樹脂製ボトル型容器に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a synthetic resin bottle-type container including a vacuum absorption panel in a body portion of a container.

合成樹脂製ボトル型容器は、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)からなる所謂PETボトルで総称され、近年、500ml(ミリリットル)以下の小型のものが普及している。またPETボトル等では、高温の内容物を充填する場合などにおいて、ボトルの内圧が減少する所謂減圧状態となるため、その胴部に耐熱ボトルとして基本的に要求される減圧吸収容量を確保するための減圧吸収パネルを設けてボトルの変形を防止する対策が施されている。   Synthetic resin bottle-type containers are collectively referred to as so-called PET bottles made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and in recent years, small-sized containers of 500 ml (milliliter) or less have become widespread. Also, in the case of filling a high-temperature content in a PET bottle or the like, the inner pressure of the bottle is reduced, so-called a reduced pressure state, so that the barrel portion has a vacuum absorption capacity basically required as a heat-resistant bottle. A countermeasure is taken to prevent deformation of the bottle by providing a reduced pressure absorption panel.

ところが、350ml(ミリリットル)、300ml(ミリリットル)、200ml(ミリリットル)など、ボトルの内容量が小容量になるに従い、当然、その胴部の表面積も小さくなるため、減圧吸収パネルの面積も確保し難くなってきている。こうした減圧吸収パネルの占有面積の減少は、減圧吸収容量の不足を招き、ボトル剛性の低下と共に、最悪の場合、ボトルの変形による外観不良を生じさせて店頭での商品価値が損なわれる結果となる。   However, as the inner volume of the bottle becomes smaller, such as 350 ml (milliliter), 300 ml (milliliter), and 200 ml (milliliter), naturally, the surface area of the body portion also becomes smaller, so it is difficult to secure the area of the vacuum absorbing panel. It has become to. Such a decrease in the area occupied by the vacuum absorbing panel leads to a shortage of vacuum absorbing capacity, and in addition to a decrease in bottle rigidity, in the worst case, the appearance of the product is deteriorated due to deformation of the bottle, resulting in a loss of commercial value at the store. .

これに対し、容器の胴部を角筒形状に構成した所謂角ボトルでは、減圧吸収パネルの占有面積の減少に伴う減圧吸収容量の不足を補償するため、その胴部を形成する一面に2つの減圧吸収パネルをボトル中心軸線に沿って上下に分割配置し、これらの減圧吸収パネルを少なくとも1つの溝で繋いだものが提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。   On the other hand, in the so-called square bottle in which the body portion of the container is formed in a rectangular tube shape, two parts are formed on one side of the body portion so as to compensate for the shortage of the reduced pressure absorption capacity accompanying the decrease in the area occupied by the reduced pressure absorption panel. There has been proposed a structure in which a reduced-pressure absorption panel is vertically divided along a bottle central axis, and these reduced-pressure absorption panels are connected by at least one groove (for example, see Patent Document 1).

図1は、本発明の合成樹脂製ボトル型容器の一例を、その内容量が350ml(ミリリットル)のポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)からなる所謂350mlPETボトル100の形態で示す正面図であり、また、図2(a),(b)はそれぞれ、図1のPETボトル100を矢印D1から示す上面図および矢印D2から示す底面図である。   FIG. 1 is a front view showing an example of a synthetic resin bottle-type container of the present invention in the form of a so-called 350 ml PET bottle 100 made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) having an inner volume of 350 ml (milliliter). (A), (b) is the top view which shows the PET bottle 100 of FIG. 1 from the arrow D1, and the bottom view which shows from the arrow D2, respectively.

PETボトル100は、図1,2に示す如く、ボトル中心軸線O1に沿って口部110が肩部120を介して胴部130とつながり、この胴部130が円筒形状となる所謂丸ボトルであり、その肩部120と胴部130との間は、胴周りに沿って胴部130の内部に落し込まれた環状の溝部150を介してつながる。また胴部130は、接地面である底部140と胴周りに沿って胴部130の内部に落し込まれた環状の溝部160を介してつながる。さらに胴部130は、図1に示す如く、胴部130の最外径をなす第1胴部131と、この第1胴部131とつながり該第1胴部131から胴部130の内部に落し込まれた第2胴部132からなる。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the PET bottle 100 is a so-called round bottle in which the mouth part 110 is connected to the body part 130 via the shoulder part 120 along the bottle central axis O1, and the body part 130 has a cylindrical shape. The shoulder 120 and the trunk 130 are connected to each other via an annular groove 150 dropped into the trunk 130 along the circumference of the trunk. In addition, the trunk portion 130 is connected to a bottom portion 140 that is a ground contact surface via an annular groove portion 160 that is dropped into the trunk portion 130 along the circumference of the trunk portion. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the body portion 130 is connected to the first body portion 131 having the outermost diameter of the body portion 130 and the first body portion 131, and is dropped from the first body portion 131 into the body portion 130. The second body portion 132 is inserted.

本形態のPETボトル100は、高温の内容物を充填可能な耐熱ボトルとして用いるため、図2(b)に示す如く、胴部130に、その胴周りに沿って複数(本形態では6つ)の減圧吸収パネル170が設けられている。   Since the PET bottle 100 of this embodiment is used as a heat-resistant bottle that can be filled with high-temperature contents, as shown in FIG. 2B, a plurality of (six in this embodiment) are provided along the periphery of the trunk portion 130. The vacuum absorption panel 170 is provided.

図3(a)〜(c)はそれぞれ、図1の減圧吸収パネル170を示す要部拡大図、図1のA−A断面図およびB−B断面図である。   3A to 3C are an enlarged view of a main part showing the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 of FIG. 1, an AA sectional view and a BB sectional view of FIG. 1, respectively.

減圧吸収パネル170は、図3に示す如く、その端部170eから胴部130の内側に傾斜して落ち込んだ端縁171と、この端縁171につながり減圧吸収パネル170の中央部に向かうに従って胴部130の外側に突出する突出部172からなり、減圧吸収パネル170の端縁170eと突出部172の立ち上り部分172eとの間に環状の最底面171aを形成する。   As shown in FIG. 3, the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 has an edge 171 that is inclined downward from the end portion 170 e to the inside of the body portion 130, and is connected to the edge 171 toward the central portion of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170. An annular bottom surface 171a is formed between the edge 170e of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 and the rising portion 172e of the protrusion 172. The protrusion 172 protrudes outside the portion 130.

突出部172は、図3(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル170の中央部に平坦な頂面173を有する台形状をなす。また突出部172は、図3(a)に示す如く、この突出部172をボトル径方向軸線O2に対して二等分する位置に、突出部172を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部172の相互間を繋げるリブ174を備える。このリブ174の上部は、図3(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル170の中央部に向かうに従って一定の曲率半径r1に沿って胴部130の内側に落し込まれる凹部を構成し、その底面174aの径方向高さが突出部172の頂面173と一致する一方、底面174a以外の部分174bでは、突出部172の頂面173に対して胴部130の外側に突出してなる。またリブ174は、図3(a),(c)に示す如く、その胴回りに沿った端部174eが突出部172の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分173eから張り出してなり、最底面171aの途中まで延在している。   As shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, the protrusion 172 has a trapezoidal shape having a flat top surface 173 at the center of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170. Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, the projecting portion 172 divides the projecting portion 172 along the circumference of the trunk at a position that bisects the projecting portion 172 with respect to the bottle radial axis O2. Ribs 174 are provided to connect each other. As shown in FIG. 3C, the upper portion of the rib 174 forms a concave portion that falls into the body portion 130 along a certain radius of curvature r1 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 170. While the radial height of 174 a coincides with the top surface 173 of the protrusion 172, the portion 174 b other than the bottom surface 174 a protrudes outside the trunk 130 with respect to the top surface 173 of the protrusion 172. Further, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3C, the rib 174 has an end 174e extending along the periphery of the rib projecting from a rising portion 173e along the periphery of the protruding portion 172, and is in the middle of the bottom surface 171a. It extends to.

本形態は、減圧吸収パネル170の中央部に胴部130の外側に突出する頂面173を有する突出部172と、この突出部172を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部172の相互間を繋げるリブ174とを備えるから、減圧吸収パネル170の動きがよくなり、突出部172およびリブ174の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル170の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度を抑えることができると共にPETボトル100の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量を効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成によれば、耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   In this embodiment, a protrusion 172 having a top surface 173 that protrudes outside the body part 130 at the center of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 and the protrusion 172 are divided along the periphery of the body so as to connect the protrusions 172 to each other. Since the rib 174 is provided, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 170 is improved, and the vacuum absorbing capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the protrusion 172 and the rib 174. Therefore, even if the area of the vacuum absorbing panel 170 cannot be increased, The degree of vacuum absorption required to prevent the deformation of the PET bottle 100 can be efficiently ensured. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that has excellent heat resistance and is difficult to deform.

特に本形態では、リブ174の一部174bを突出部172の頂面173に対して胴部130の外側に突出させてなるから、減圧時リブ174を下方へ引っ張る力が働くため、連設する突出部172を横方向へ押し広げる力が働き、減圧吸収パネル170の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル100の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。なお、リブ174の上部は、底面174aを有する凹部形状ではなく、平坦な面であってもよい。   In particular, in this embodiment, since a part 174b of the rib 174 is protruded to the outside of the body part 130 with respect to the top surface 173 of the protrusion 172, a force for pulling the rib 174 downward at the time of decompression works. Even when the force that pushes the protruding portion 172 in the lateral direction works and the area of the vacuum absorption panel 170 cannot be increased, the vacuum reduction capacity necessary for further suppressing the degree of vacuum and preventing the PET bottle 100 from being deformed. Can be secured even more efficiently. The upper portion of the rib 174 may be a flat surface instead of the concave shape having the bottom surface 174a.

また本形態では、リブ174の胴部周りに沿った端部174eを突出部172の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分172eから張り出させてなるから、減圧吸収パネル170の動きがさらによくなり、この張り出し分の可動体積だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル170の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル100の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成によれば、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Further, in this embodiment, the end portion 174e along the periphery of the rib 174 is protruded from the rising portion 172e along the periphery of the protrusion 172, so that the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 170 is further improved. Since the reduced pressure absorption capacity is increased by the movable volume of the overhang, even when the area of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 cannot be increased, the reduced pressure can be further reduced and the reduced pressure necessary for preventing the deformation of the PET bottle 100. Absorption capacity can also be ensured more efficiently. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that is further excellent in heat resistance and hardly deforms.

ところで、本形態の減圧吸収パネル170は、図2(b)や図3(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル170をボトル中心軸線O1およびボトル径方向軸線O2を含む平面、即ちボトル中心軸線O1を含む縦断面Fに向かって胴部130の内側に垂直に落し込んで減圧吸収パネル170の端部170eと第1及び第2胴部131,132との間を繋げる側壁180を備える。このため、本形態の側壁180は、第1及び第2胴部131,132に対して直角に位置する。この場合も、減圧吸収パネル170の動きがさらによくなり、この側壁180の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル170の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル100の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成でも、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   By the way, as shown in FIG. 2B, FIG. 3B, and FIG. 3C, the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 of the present embodiment is a plane including the bottle central axis O1 and the bottle radial direction axis O2. A side wall 180 that falls vertically into the body 130 toward the longitudinal section F including the bottle center axis O1 and connects the end 170e of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 and the first and second bodies 131, 132 is provided. Prepare. For this reason, the side wall 180 of this embodiment is positioned at right angles to the first and second body portions 131 and 132. Also in this case, the movement of the vacuum absorption panel 170 is further improved, and the vacuum absorption capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the side wall 180. Therefore, even when the area of the vacuum absorption panel 170 cannot be increased, the degree of vacuum reduction is further suppressed. In addition, the vacuum absorption capacity necessary for preventing the deformation of the PET bottle 100 can be more efficiently ensured. Therefore, even with such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that is further excellent in heat resistance and hardly deformed.

そして本形態では、図3(a),(c)に示す如く、PETボトル100の胴回りに沿って側壁180から突出部172の立ち上り部分172eに至るまでの間にボトル中心軸線O1に沿って延びる段差部175を形成し、側壁180から突出部172の立ち上り部分172eに至るまでの間を段付き形状にしている。この場合も、減圧吸収パネル170の動きがさらによくなり、この段差部175からなる段付き形状部の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル170の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル100の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成でも、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。なお、本形態では、段差部175は1つの段差であるが、この段差は複数であってもよく、その形状も平坦面による段差に限らず、曲面による段差であってもよい。   In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3C, the bottle extends along the bottle central axis O1 from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 172e of the protruding portion 172 along the circumference of the PET bottle 100. A stepped portion 175 is formed, and a step from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 172e of the protruding portion 172 is stepped. Also in this case, the movement of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 is further improved, and the reduced pressure absorption capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the stepped shape portion composed of the stepped portion 175. Therefore, even when the area of the reduced pressure absorption panel 170 cannot be increased. In addition, the degree of vacuum can be further suppressed, and the vacuum absorption capacity necessary to prevent the deformation of the PET bottle 100 can be more efficiently ensured. Therefore, even with such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that is further excellent in heat resistance and hardly deformed. In this embodiment, the step portion 175 is one step, but there may be a plurality of steps, and the shape is not limited to a step due to a flat surface, but may be a step due to a curved surface.

また図1に示す第一形態には、様々な変形例がある。以下、図4,5を参照して、本発明の第二及び第三の形態であるPETボトル200,300を説明する。なお、以下の説明において、PETボトル200,300の正面図は図1を参照し、図1〜3と同一部分は同一符号を以ってその説明を省略する。   There are various modifications to the first embodiment shown in FIG. Hereinafter, the PET bottles 200 and 300 according to the second and third embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the front view of the PET bottles 200 and 300 is referred to FIG. 1, and the same parts as those in FIGS.

図4は、本発明に係るPETボトル200の第2の形態を図1におけるB−B断面で示す断面図である。図1の第一の形態では、図3(c)に示す如く、リブ174の頂部174bの径方向高さが胴部130と側壁180とが繋がる点を含む平面F2を超えるのに対し、本形態では、図4に示す如く、突出部172の頂面173およびリブ174の頂部174bの径方向高さが共に、胴部130と側壁180とが繋がる点を含む平面F2を超えない。   FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a second embodiment of the PET bottle 200 according to the present invention in a BB cross section in FIG. In the first form of FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 3 (c), the radial height of the top 174b of the rib 174 exceeds the plane F2 including the point where the body 130 and the side wall 180 are connected. In the form, as shown in FIG. 4, the radial heights of the top surface 173 of the projecting portion 172 and the top portion 174 b of the rib 174 do not exceed the plane F 2 including the point where the body portion 130 and the side wall 180 are connected.

また図5(a),(b)はそれぞれ、本発明に係るPETボトル300の第3の形態を図1におけるA−A断面およびB−B断面で示す断面図である。この形態では、図5(a)に示す如く、2つに分断された突出部172の頂面173がそれぞれ、リブ174に向かうに従って変化量αだけ胴部130の外側に傾斜する一方、突出部172の頂面173およびリブ174の頂部174bの径方向高さが共に、胴部130と側壁180とが繋がる点を含む平面F2を超えている。   5 (a) and 5 (b) are cross-sectional views showing a third embodiment of the PET bottle 300 according to the present invention in the AA cross section and the BB cross section in FIG. 1, respectively. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, the top surface 173 of the projecting portion 172 divided into two is inclined to the outside of the body portion 130 by the amount of change α toward the rib 174, while the projecting portion The radial heights of the top surface 173 of 172 and the top portion 174b of the rib 174 both exceed the plane F2 including the point where the body portion 130 and the side wall 180 are connected.

つまり、リブ174を突出部172の頂面173に対して胴部130の外側に突出させる形態の場合、突出部172の頂面173およびリブ174の頂部174bの径方向高さは、第2胴部132の径方向高さ(仮想線L)を超えない範囲であれば、様々に変更することができる。   That is, in the case where the rib 174 is protruded outside the body 130 with respect to the top surface 173 of the protrusion 172, the radial heights of the top surface 173 of the protrusion 172 and the top 174b of the rib 174 are the second body. Various changes can be made as long as the height does not exceed the radial height (imaginary line L) of the portion 132.

次に図6を参照して、本発明の第四の形態であるPETボトル400を説明する。なお、以下の説明においても、PETボトル400の正面図は図1を参照し、図1〜3と同一部分は同一符号を以ってその説明を省略する。   Next, with reference to FIG. 6, the PET bottle 400 which is the 4th form of this invention is demonstrated. Also in the following description, the front view of the PET bottle 400 refers to FIG. 1, and the same parts as those in FIGS.

図6(a)〜(c)はそれぞれ、PETボトル400の減圧吸収パネル470を示す要部拡大図、その図1におけるA−A断面図およびB−B断面図である。   FIGS. 6A to 6C are respectively an enlarged view of a main part showing a reduced pressure absorption panel 470 of the PET bottle 400, an AA sectional view and a BB sectional view in FIG.

減圧吸収パネル470は、図6に示す如く、その端部470eから胴部130の内側に傾斜して落ち込んだ端縁471と、この端縁471につながり減圧吸収パネル470の中央部に向かうに従って胴部130の外側に突出する突出部472からなり、減圧吸収パネル470の端縁470eと突出部472の立ち上り部分472eとの間に環状の最底面471aを形成する。   As shown in FIG. 6, the reduced pressure absorption panel 470 has an end edge 471 that is inclined inward from the end portion 470 e to the inside of the body portion 130, and is connected to the end edge 471 toward the central portion of the reduced pressure absorption panel 470. The annular bottom surface 471 a is formed between the end edge 470 e of the reduced pressure absorption panel 470 and the rising portion 472 e of the projection 472.

突出部472は、図6(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル470の中央部に減圧吸収パネル470の中央部に向かうに従って一定の曲率半径r2に沿って胴部130の外側に突出する頂面473を有するドーム形状をなす。また突出部472は、図6(a)に示す如く、この突出部472をボトル径方向軸線O2に対して二等分する位置に、突出部472を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部472の相互間を繋げるリブ474を備える。このリブ474の上部は、図6(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル470の中央部に向かうに従って一定の曲率半径r3に沿って胴部130の内側に落し込まれる凹部を構成し、その底面474aおよび頂部474bの径方向高さが突出部472の頂面473より低くなり、突出部472の頂面473に対して胴部130の内側に落し込まれてなる。またリブ474は、図6(a),(c)に示す如く、その胴部周りに沿った端部474eを突出部472の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分473eから張り出してなり、最底面471aの途中まで延在している。   As shown in FIGS. 6 (b) and 6 (c), the protruding portion 472 extends outward from the body portion 130 along a certain radius of curvature r2 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 470 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 470. A dome shape having a projecting top surface 473 is formed. Further, as shown in FIG. 6A, the projecting portion 472 divides the projecting portion 472 along the circumference of the trunk at a position that bisects the projecting portion 472 with respect to the bottle radial direction axis O 2. Ribs 474 are provided to connect each other. As shown in FIG. 6 (c), the upper portion of the rib 474 forms a recess that falls into the inside of the trunk portion 130 along a certain radius of curvature r3 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 470. The radial heights of 474a and the top portion 474b are lower than the top surface 473 of the protruding portion 472, and are dropped into the trunk portion 130 with respect to the top surface 473 of the protruding portion 472. Further, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6C, the rib 474 is formed by projecting an end portion 474e along the periphery of the trunk portion from the rising portion 473e along the periphery of the projection portion 472, and the bottom surface 471a. It extends to the middle.

本形態も、減圧吸収パネル470の中央部に胴部130の外側に突出する頂面473を有する突出部472と、この突出部472を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部472の相互間を繋げるリブ474とを備えるから、減圧吸収パネル470の動きがよくなり、突出部472およびリブ474の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル470の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度を抑えることができると共にPETボトル400の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量を効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成によれば、耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Also in this embodiment, a protrusion 472 having a top surface 473 that protrudes outside the body 130 at the center of the reduced pressure absorption panel 470, and the protrusion 472 are divided along the periphery of the body to connect the protrusions 472 to each other. Since the rib 474 is provided, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 470 is improved, and the vacuum absorbing capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the protrusion 472 and the rib 474. In addition, the degree of vacuum absorption capacity necessary for preventing deformation of the PET bottle 400 can be efficiently secured. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that has excellent heat resistance and is difficult to deform.

特に本形態では、リブ474を突出部472の頂面473に対して胴部130の内側に落し込んでなるから、突出部472およびリブ474の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力を増大させると共に補強リブ的な効果を発揮することができ、減圧吸収パネル470の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル400の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成によれば、剛性を維持しつつさらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。なお、リブ474の上部は、底面474aを有する凹部形状ではなく、平坦な面であってもよい。また本形態でも、リブ474の胴部周りに沿った端部474eを突出部472の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分472eから張り出させてなるから、第一の形態のリブ174と同様、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   In particular, in this embodiment, the rib 474 is dropped inside the body portion 130 with respect to the top surface 473 of the protrusion 472, so that the decompression absorption capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the protrusion 472 and the rib 474 and the reinforcing rib. Even when the area of the vacuum absorption panel 470 cannot be increased, the degree of vacuum can be further suppressed and the vacuum absorption capacity necessary for preventing the deformation of the PET bottle 400 is further efficient. Can be secured. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small-sized PET bottle that is excellent in heat resistance and is difficult to be deformed while maintaining rigidity. The upper portion of the rib 474 may be a flat surface instead of the concave shape having the bottom surface 474a. Also in this embodiment, since the end portion 474e along the periphery of the body portion of the rib 474 protrudes from the rising portion 472e along the periphery of the protrusion portion 472, similarly to the rib 174 of the first embodiment, A small PET bottle that has excellent heat resistance and is difficult to deform can be provided.

さらに、本形態の減圧吸収パネル470も、図6(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル470を縦断面Fに向かって胴部130の内側に垂直に落し込んで減圧吸収パネル470の端部470eと第1及び第2胴部131,132との間を繋げる側壁180を備える。この場合も、第一の形態と同様、減圧吸収パネル470の動きがさらによくなり、この側壁180の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Further, the vacuum absorbing panel 470 of this embodiment also drops the vacuum absorbing panel 470 vertically toward the longitudinal section F toward the inside of the body portion 130 as shown in FIGS. The side wall 180 connecting the end portion 470e and the first and second body portions 131 and 132 is provided. Also in this case, as in the first embodiment, the movement of the reduced pressure absorption panel 470 is further improved, and the reduced pressure absorption capacity is increased by the movable volume integral of the side wall 180. Bottles can be provided.

そして本形態でも、図6(a),(c)に示す如く、PETボトル400の胴回りに沿って側壁180から突出部472の立ち上り部分472eに至るまでの間にボトル中心軸線O1に沿って延びる段差部475を形成し、側壁180から突出部472の立ち上り部分472eに至るまでの間を段付き形状にしている。この場合も、第一の形態と同様、減圧吸収パネル470の動きがさらによくなり、この段差部475からなる段付き形状部の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Also in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6C, the bottle extends along the bottle central axis O1 from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 472e of the protruding portion 472 along the circumference of the PET bottle 400. A stepped portion 475 is formed, and a stepped shape is formed from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 472e of the protruding portion 472. Also in this case, as in the first embodiment, the movement of the reduced pressure absorption panel 470 is further improved, and the reduced pressure absorption capacity is increased by the movable volume integral of the stepped shape portion composed of the stepped portion 475, so that the heat resistance is further improved. It is possible to provide a small PET bottle that is difficult to deform.

また図6に示す第四の形態にも、様々な変形例がある。以下、図7を参照して、本発明の第五の形態であるPETボトル500を説明する。なお、以下の説明において、図1〜3及び図6と同一部分は同一符号を以ってその説明を省略する。   There are also various modifications in the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 7, the PET bottle 500 which is the 5th form of this invention is demonstrated. In the following description, the same parts as those shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIG.

図7は、PETボトル500の正面図である。また図8(a)〜(c)はそれぞれ、PETボトル500の減圧吸収パネル570を示す要部拡大図、図7におけるA−A断面図およびB−B断面図である。第五の形態では、図8に示す如く、突出部472の頂面473にリブ474からボトル中心軸線O1に沿って延在する凹溝571を備える。この凹溝571は、図8(b),(c)に示す如く、リブ474の存在する開放領域Xでリブ474に連結し、ボトル中心軸線O1に沿って先細りの形状となっている。   FIG. 7 is a front view of the PET bottle 500. 8A to 8C are an enlarged view of a main part showing the reduced pressure absorption panel 570 of the PET bottle 500, an AA sectional view and a BB sectional view in FIG. In the fifth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the top surface 473 of the protrusion 472 is provided with a concave groove 571 extending from the rib 474 along the bottle central axis O1. As shown in FIGS. 8B and 8C, the concave groove 571 is connected to the rib 474 in the open region X where the rib 474 exists, and has a tapered shape along the bottle center axis O1.

本形態では、突出部472の頂面473にリブ474からボトル中心軸線O1に沿って延在する凹溝571を備えるから、減圧吸収パネル570の動きもさらによくなり、この凹溝571の可動体積だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル570の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル500の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量もさらに効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成でも、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。なお、凹溝571は、その溝深さが開放領域Xでリブ474の底面474aと一致してリブ474と連結しているが、凹溝571の溝深さは、リブ474の底面474aよりも深くても浅くてもよい。   In this embodiment, since the top surface 473 of the projecting portion 472 is provided with the concave groove 571 extending from the rib 474 along the bottle center axis O1, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 570 is further improved, and the movable volume of the concave groove 571 is increased. Therefore, even if the area of the reduced pressure absorption panel 570 cannot be increased, the degree of reduced pressure can be further suppressed, and the reduced pressure absorption capacity necessary for preventing the deformation of the PET bottle 500 is further increased. Can be secured. Therefore, even with such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that is further excellent in heat resistance and hardly deformed. In addition, the groove depth of the concave groove 571 coincides with the bottom surface 474a of the rib 474 in the open region X and is connected to the rib 474. However, the groove depth of the concave groove 571 is larger than that of the bottom surface 474a of the rib 474. Deep or shallow.

さらに図9は、本発明の第六の形態を示すPETボトル600の正面図であり、また、図10(a)〜(c)はそれぞれ、PETボトル600の減圧吸収パネル670を示す要部拡大図、図9におけるA−A断面図およびB−B断面図である。なお、以下の説明においても、図1〜7と同一部分は同一符号を以ってその説明を省略する。   Further, FIG. 9 is a front view of a PET bottle 600 showing a sixth embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 10A to 10C are enlarged views showing main parts of the reduced pressure absorption panel 670 of the PET bottle 600, respectively. It is AA sectional drawing and BB sectional drawing in FIG. In the following description, the same parts as those in FIGS.

PETボトル600において、減圧吸収パネル670は、図10に示す如く、その端部670eから胴部130の内側に傾斜して落ち込んだ端縁671と、この端縁671につながり減圧吸収パネル670の中央部に向かうに従って胴部130の外側に突出する突出部672からなり、減圧吸収パネル670の端縁670eと突出部672の立ち上り部分672eとの間に環状の最底面671aを形成する。   In the PET bottle 600, as shown in FIG. 10, the reduced-pressure absorption panel 670 includes an end 671 that inclines from the end 670e to the inside of the body 130, and the center of the reduced-pressure absorption panel 670 connected to the end 671. It consists of a protruding portion 672 that protrudes outward from the body portion 130 toward the portion, and an annular bottom surface 671a is formed between the edge 670e of the reduced pressure absorption panel 670 and the rising portion 672e of the protruding portion 672.

突出部672は、図9(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル670の中央部に向かうに従って曲率半径r4に沿って胴部130の外側に突出する凸状の頂面673を有するドーム形状をなす。また突出部672も、図10(a)に示す如く、この突出部672をボトル径方向軸線O2に対して二等分する位置に、突出部672を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部672の相互間を繋げるリブ674を備える。このリブ674の上部は、図9(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル670の中央部に向かうに従って一定の曲率半径r5に沿って胴部130の外側に突出させる凸部を構成し、その頂部674aの径方向高さが突出部672の頂面673と一致する一方、頂部674a以外の部分では、突出部672の頂面673に対して胴部130の内側に落し込まれてなる。またリブ674は、図10(a),(c)に示す如く、その胴部周りに沿った端部674eが突出部672の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分672eと一致している。   As shown in FIGS. 9B and 9C, the protruding portion 672 has a convex top surface 673 that protrudes to the outside of the trunk portion 130 along the radius of curvature r4 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 670. It has a dome shape. Further, as shown in FIG. 10 (a), the protruding portion 672 is also divided into two along the waist around the protruding portion 672 so that the protruding portion 672 is divided into two equal parts with respect to the bottle radial axis O2. Ribs 674 are provided to connect each other. As shown in FIG. 9C, the upper portion of the rib 674 constitutes a convex portion that protrudes to the outside of the trunk portion 130 along a certain radius of curvature r5 toward the central portion of the vacuum absorbing panel 670, and the top portion thereof. While the radial height of 674a coincides with the top surface 673 of the protruding portion 672, the portion other than the top portion 674a is dropped into the body 130 with respect to the top surface 673 of the protruding portion 672. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10C, the rib 674 has an end portion 674e along the periphery of the trunk portion that coincides with a rising portion 672e along the periphery of the projection portion 672.

本形態も、減圧吸収パネル670の中央部に胴部130の外側に突出する頂面673を有する突出部672と、この突出部672を胴回りに沿って分断しこれら突出部672の相互間を繋げるリブ674とを備えるから、減圧吸収パネル670の動きがよくなり、突出部672およびリブ674の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力が増大するため、減圧吸収パネル670の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度を抑えることができると共にPETボトル600の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収容量を効率的に確保することができる。従ってかかる構成によれば、耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Also in this embodiment, a protruding portion 672 having a top surface 673 protruding outside the trunk portion 130 at the center of the reduced pressure absorption panel 670 and the protruding portion 672 are divided along the circumference of the trunk to connect the protruding portions 672 to each other. Since the rib 674 is provided, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 670 is improved, and the vacuum absorbing capacity is increased by the movable body integral of the protrusion 672 and the rib 674. Therefore, even when the area of the vacuum absorbing panel 670 cannot be increased, The degree of vacuum absorption required to prevent deformation of the PET bottle 600 can be efficiently ensured. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to provide a small PET bottle that has excellent heat resistance and is difficult to deform.

特に本形態では、リブ674の胴部周りに沿った端部674eを突出部672の胴部周りに沿った立ち上り部分672eに一致させてなる形状としている。   Particularly, in this embodiment, the end 674e along the periphery of the rib 674 has a shape corresponding to the rising portion 672e along the periphery of the protrusion 672.

また本形態も、リブ674を突出部672の頂面673に対して胴部130の内側に落し込んでなるから、第四の形態と同様、剛性を維持しつつ突出部672およびリブ674の可動体積分だけ減圧吸収能力を増大させることができ、減圧吸収パネル470の面積が大きく取れない場合でも、減圧度をさらに抑えることができると共にPETボトル400の変形を防止するのに必要な減圧吸収能力もさらに効果的に確保することができる。さらに本形態の減圧吸収パネル670も、図10(b),(c)に示す如く、減圧吸収パネル670を縦断面Fに向かって胴部130の内側に垂直に落し込んで減圧吸収パネル670の端部670eと第1胴部131,132との間を繋げる側壁180を備えるため、第一の形態と同様、減圧吸収パネル670の動きがさらによくなるため、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Also in this embodiment, since the rib 674 is dropped inside the body portion 130 with respect to the top surface 673 of the protrusion 672, the protrusion 672 and the rib 674 can be moved while maintaining rigidity, as in the fourth embodiment. The reduced-pressure absorption capacity can be increased by the volume, and even when the area of the reduced-pressure absorption panel 470 cannot be increased, the reduced-pressure absorption capacity can be further suppressed and the deformation of the PET bottle 400 can be prevented. Can be more effectively secured. Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 10B and 10C, the reduced pressure absorption panel 670 of the present embodiment also drops the reduced pressure absorption panel 670 vertically toward the inside of the body portion 130 toward the longitudinal section F. Since the side wall 180 that connects between the end 670e and the first body 131, 132 is provided, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 670 is further improved as in the first embodiment. PET bottles can be provided.

そして本形態でも、図10(a),(c)に示す如く、PETボトル600の胴回りに沿って側壁180から突出部672の立ち上り部分672eに至るまでの間にボトル中心軸線O1に沿って延びる段差部675を形成し、側壁180から突出部672の立ち上り部分672eに至るまでの間を段付き形状にしているため、第一の形態と同様、減圧吸収パネル670の動きがさらによくなるため、さらに耐熱性に優れた変形しにくい小型のPETボトルを提供することができる。   Also in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10C, the bottle extends along the bottle central axis O1 from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 672e of the protruding portion 672 along the circumference of the PET bottle 600. Since the stepped portion 675 is formed and the step from the side wall 180 to the rising portion 672e of the protruding portion 672 is stepped, the movement of the vacuum absorbing panel 670 is further improved as in the first embodiment. A small PET bottle that has excellent heat resistance and is difficult to deform can be provided.

なお、図6〜11の如く、突出部の頂面に設けたリブをその突出部の頂面に対して胴部の内側に落し込ませる形態の場合も、突出部の頂面およびリブの頂部の径方向高さは、第2胴部132の径方向高さ(仮想線L)を超えない範囲であれば、様々に変更することができる。   6-11, the rib provided on the top surface of the projecting portion is dropped into the inside of the trunk portion with respect to the top surface of the projecting portion, and the top surface of the projecting portion and the top portion of the rib are also provided. The height in the radial direction can be variously changed as long as it does not exceed the radial height (imaginary line L) of the second body portion 132.
