Description

  The present invention relates to a handle attachment structure for a container that contains a sealing material, an adhesive, and the like, and more particularly to a handle attachment structure that can be detachably attached to a container body.

  Conventionally, sealing materials and adhesives that are frequently used in building buildings and ordinary houses, etc., the main agent, curing agent and color masterbatch are housed in separate containers, and are usually filled into a film when applying the sealing material The curing agent and the color master batch are opened, squeezed out into the main agent container (tin can), mixed and used.

  However, in the case of the main container using tin cans, the hardened sealing material and adhesive adhere to the inner wall surface of the tin can once used, so it is difficult to reuse. It is necessary to crush using tools, etc., or to break it finely using a cutter or the like and dispose of it industrially. However, the processing of a large number of tin cans after use is very expensive and laborious, cannot be incinerated, and requires a management-type disposal process, leaving many problems in this respect as well. It was.

  Therefore, in recent years, a resin container that can be dismantled for the purpose of reducing industrial waste treatment has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Such a resin container is generally provided with a handle comprising a suspension member rotatably connected via a handle support member attached at a symmetrical position.

By the way, in the case of the handle attachment structure as described above, when the handle support member has a form protruding upward from the flange-like convex portion formed at the upper opening edge, the sealing material in the container body is used. When scraping with a spatula etc., the spatula collides with the handle support member, and the workability is deteriorated. When doing so, there was a problem that it had to be cleaned.

  This invention pays attention to such a conventional problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a container handle mounting structure that can be used repeatedly with respect to the container body without soiling the handle and can also reinforce the container body at the same time. It is what.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a substantially bottomed cylindrical container body provided with a flange-shaped convex part at the upper opening edge, and a cylindrical part formed in a tapered shape of the container body from the bottom surface side. A ring-shaped handle frame that is detachably fitted , and a cross-shaped handle support member provided with a locking portion composed of leaf springs on the top, bottom, left and right are fixed to the top surface of the handle frame at a 180-degree symmetry position, A handle attachment structure for a container comprising a handle in which a suspension member formed in an arch shape is rotatably connected to the center portion of the handle support member, and is provided in the vicinity of the convex portion formed at the upper opening edge. The cylindrical portion is provided with at least one protruding portion that detachably engages the handle-shaped handle frame, and the protruding portion is configured to be continuous or divided in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion. This is what I have done.

Here, a stopper projection is provided on the terminal portion of the divided projecting portion, and a concave and convex portion as a friction member used for stirring the contents in the circumferential direction of the lower end outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion is predetermined. The container body is a resin container formed integrally with a thermoplastic resin material, or a metal can made of a metal material. Furthermore, it is also possible to provide at least one rib along the longitudinal direction in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion of the container body.

  As described above, the cylindrical portion near the convex portion formed at the upper opening edge portion is provided with at least one or more protrusions to which the ring-shaped handle frame is detachably locked, so that the handle can be removed. The handle can be used repeatedly without being stained and without interfering with the spatula.

As described above, the present invention is detachable from the bottom side to the substantially bottomed cylindrical container body having the flange-shaped convex part at the upper opening edge and the cylindrical part formed in the tapered shape of the container body. A ring-shaped handle frame that is fitted to the handle frame, and a cross-shaped handle support member having a locking portion formed of plate springs on the top, bottom, left and right is fixed to the upper surface of the handle frame at a 180-degree symmetrical position. A handle attachment structure for a container comprising a handle in which a suspension member formed in an arch shape is rotatably connected to a central portion of a support member, and has a cylindrical shape near a convex portion formed on the upper opening edge. Since the ring-shaped handle frame of the handle is detachably locked to the at least one protruding portion, the protruding portion is configured to be continuous or divided in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion. The following excellent effects can be obtained.
(a) The handle can be used repeatedly without being stained with a sealing material and the handle does not interfere with the spatula.
(b) Since one or more protrusions are provided on the cylindrical portion of the container body, the rigidity of the container body can be increased and reinforcement can be performed at the same time.
(c) The handle frame can be easily attached to and detached from the container body.
That is, when the protruding portion is divided in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion, the handle frame can be attached with one hand while the container body is positioned at the inner central portion of the ring-shaped handle frame. Hold the handle and raise the frame. Then, after passing the locking portion of the handle frame through the notch of the projecting portion, the handle frame rotates relative to the container body by rotating the hand holding the handle, and it is easy and instantaneous. The locking operation can be completed.
Also, the handle frame can be removed by rotating the handle frame by rotating the hand holding the handle in the direction opposite to the direction of attachment (for example, counterclockwise if the hand is rotated clockwise at the time of attachment). The container main body and the handle frame can be easily and instantly separated by simply rotating the handle relative to the container body and aligning the locking portion with the position of the notch, and then lowering the handle.
Further, when the stopper is provided in the notch, the locking part can be moved to the position of the notch at a time, so that the removal work can be performed more easily. Moreover, the stopper of a notch part is effective also for the reliable latching at the time of attachment.
In addition, when the projecting portion is continuous in the circumferential direction of the tubular portion, the handle frame is attached in a container body in which a sealing material or the like is put in the center of the inside of the handle frame previously placed on the ground. When the handle is gripped and the handle is lifted up vigorously, the locking portion 8a formed of a leaf spring or the like gets over the protruding portion 5a by elastic deformation, and then the upper opening edge of the container body 1 The flange-shaped convex part 1b of 1a abuts and is locked. During the operation, since the protruding portion 5a is present, the locking portion does not come off from the container body.
Also, when removing after use, if you hold the handle and hit the container body against the ground, the locking part will go over the protruding part toward the bottom of the container body, so you can instantly use the container body and handle frame with one hand. Can be separated.
