Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the structure of the bottom seal portion of a blow-molded delaminated plastic container.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A laminated peelable plastic container, which is a blow-molded housing generally called a delamination bottle, is constructed by laminating a flexible bag-like inner layer on an outer layer having a high self-shape retention ability in a state where it can be easily peeled off. Are known.
[0003]
This blow-molded delaminated plastic container is obtained by co-extrusion of an outer layer parison and an inner layer parison, which are almost incompatible, into a laminated parison, and blow molding this laminated parison. The bottom seal part, which is crushed and cut by the part, basically has a laminated structure consisting of an outer layer part and an inner layer part that are almost incompatible, so that the bottom crack easily occurs in the outer layer part. was there.
[0004]
As a conventional technique to eliminate this dissatisfaction, the bottom seal part that is flattened by the pinch-off part of the blow mold and bite-molded is formed into a ridge shape along the parting line by superposing and crimping a pair of rib pieces. There is a technique (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-216238) in which a molded bottom rib is mainly used, and a plurality of biting portions that bite into the other from one of a pair of rib pieces are provided on the bottom rib.
[0005]
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, this prior art is a blow-molded delamination plastic container 1 in which a bottom portion 7 is provided at the lower end of a body portion 4 provided with a mouth tube portion 5 at an upper end. By forming a ridge shape having a height width, the crimping area between the outer layer and the inner layer in the bottom seal part 14 is increased, and by providing a plurality of biting parts 17, the crimping area between the outer layer and the inner layer is further increased. In addition, the resistance against the shearing force parallel to the crimping surface is dramatically increased, thereby making it possible to obtain the bottom seal portion 14 having high mechanical strength in which bottom cracks are unlikely to occur.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the above-described prior art, since the bottom portion 7 where the bottom seal portion 14 is located, that is, the inner portion of the leg wall 8 is the slope portion 9, the bottom seal located on the slope portion 9 is used. The height of the portion 14 is reduced, and the biting portion 17 cannot be formed in terms of dimensions.
[0007]
For this reason, in the bottom seal portion 14, the bite portion forming range v in which the biting portion 17 can be formed is smaller than the parison biting range w, and the parison biting range w deviating from the biting portion forming range v. There was dissatisfaction that it was not possible to sufficiently satisfy the demand for increasing the pressure-bonding strength of the portion, that is, both end portions of the bottom seal portion 14.
[0008]
In other words, the parison cut-off range w has a width that is larger than the width dimension obtained by flatly crushing the standard diameter parison in consideration of the displacement of the parison. If the molding speed of the parison is increased to improve the properties, even if the parison is extruded with the same synthetic resin material, the change in the parison diameter obtained due to the MFR of the material, the molecular weight distribution of the resin, etc. In the case of a parison having a large diameter, the biting portion is located in the entire area of the parison cut-off range w, so that both end portions of the bottom seal portion 14 must be in a range where the bite portion can be formed. This is because it will deviate from v.
[0009]
In particular, in the case where the content liquid is poured out by using the squeeze deformation of the body portion 4 of the container 1, rather than the content liquid being poured out by the pump assembled in the container 1, the body portion 4 squeeze is used. At the time of deformation, a large bending force acts on the bottom portion 7, so that the pressure-bonding strength of the bottom seal portion 14 needs to be sufficient to withstand this bending force, but as described above, the bottom sealing portion 14. Since the biting portion 17 cannot be formed on both side end portions of the bottom seal portion 14, there is a problem that the pressure-bonding strength of both side end portions of the bottom seal portion 14 cannot be increased.
[0010]
Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the above-described problems in the prior art, and the entire area of the parison biting range in the bottom seal portion of the bottom cut portion of the blow-molded delamination plastic container, The technical challenge is to make the biting part formable so as to increase the crimping strength of the bottom seal part, thereby increasing the crimping strength of the bottom seal part and preventing the occurrence of bottom cracks. The purpose is to increase the production rate of a blow-molded delaminated plastic container having strength without difficulty.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Of the present invention for solving the above technical problem, the invention according to claim 1 is:
It is a blow molded laminated release plastic container,
Opening an intake hole in the outer layer,
The bottom seal part of the bottom part that is flattened by the pinch-off part of the blow mold and cut and formed is configured with a bottom rib formed into a ridge shape by superposing and crimping a pair of rib pieces,
The bottom ribs are arranged in rows with biting portions that bite into the other from one of a pair of superposed rib pieces,
The bottom part is composed of a leg wall and a bottom wall constituting the leg part, and the bottom wall is formed by connecting a flat part connected to the inner peripheral edge of the slope part which is an inner part of the leg wall, and a center of the flat part. A dome structure having a substantially elliptical spherical arc wall shape that traverses along the parting line and has a major axis along the parting line, and is composed of a thick ridge that is curved inwardly,
Providing a notch at the bottom of the leg wall where the parting line is located,
In this recess , the side end portion of the arch-shaped bottom rib curved along the substantially elliptical arc surface of the raised portion is located.
It is in.
[0012]
The bottom seal portion composed of the bottom rib formed into a ridge shape by superposing and pressing a pair of rib pieces has a wall structure in which the outer layer, the inner layer, the inner layer, and the outer layer are stacked in this order along the pressing direction. Since it has a protrusion structure having a height width, it has a large pressure-bonding area, whereby a high pressure-bonding strength is exhibited even between the outer layer and the inner layer having low compatibility.
[0013]
The biting portion formed in the bottom rib has a structure that bites from one rib piece into the other rib piece, so that the overlapping surface of the outer layer and the inner layer in the bottom rib becomes uneven at this biting portion, thereby The polymerization area increases to increase the pressure bonding strength, and the resistance to the shearing force parallel to the main portion of the pressure bonding surface increases.
[0014]
In addition, since the biting portion is formed by local pressing deformation of the bottom rib due to strong pressing force, a strong pressing force acts on the bottom rib portion near the biting portion, so that the outer layer and inner layer in the biting portion are It will be strongly crimped and will exhibit strong crimping strength.
[0015]
Furthermore, since the both end portions of the bottom rib are located in the recesses of the leg wall, the bottom rib can have a sufficient height without being affected by the sloped portion of the leg wall. It can be formed without.
[0016]
The invention according to claim 2 is obtained by adding the biting direction of the biting portion to the configuration of the invention according to claim 1 alternately.
[0017]
In the invention according to claim 2, since the biting directions of the adjacent biting portions are opposite, the outer layer and the inner layer in the vicinity are greatly pulled and deformed by forcibly pulling when the biting portion is formed. Therefore, the pressure-bonding area between the outer layer and the inner layer increases, and the outer layer and the inner layer are more strongly pressure-bonded, thereby increasing the pressure-bonding strength of the entire bottom seal portion.
[0018]
Further, since the biting portions are alternately positioned on the opposite side with respect to the main portion of the crimping surface, the plurality of biting portions cause both rib pieces to mesh with each other on both sides of the main portion of the crimping surface. Is structurally enhanced.
[0019]
Incidentally, the bottom rib portions throughout located scope outright eat parison at bottom seal portion can be a biting portion forming range.
[0020]
As a result , the biting portion can be freely shaped over the entire bottom rib portion located in the parison biting range, which requires reinforcement of the bonding strength of the pair of polymerized rib pieces. Strength reinforcement can be achieved in any desired form.
[0021]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0022]
FIG. 1 is a front view of a container 1 according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side view, FIG. 3 is a bottom view, and the container 1 is made of a synthetic resin material such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and has a necessary self-shape retaining ability. And an inner layer 3 formed into a bag shape that is freely deformable with a synthetic resin material having low compatibility with the outer layer 2 such as nylon, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, and polyethylene terephthalate. It is a blow molded container laminated (see FIG. 2).
[0023]
The body 4 of the container 1 has a cylindrical shape, and stands upright at the upper end of the body 4, and external air is applied to the outer layer 2 portions before and after the mouth tube portion 5 in which a thread is engraved on the outer peripheral surface. An intake hole 6 is formed between the outer layer 2 and the inner layer 3, and a bottom portion 7 having a circular bottom wall 11 is connected to the lower end of the body portion 4.
[0024]
The bottom portion 7 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) includes a peripheral leg wall 8 constituting a leg portion of the container 1, a bottom wall 11 surrounded by the leg wall 8 and depressed in the container 1, and a bottom wall The bottom seal portion 14 is integrally connected to the wall 11 and is located on the parting line and crosses the bottom wall 11.
[0025]
The leg wall 8 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) is a wall structure in which a substantially cylindrical wall portion on the outer side and a lower end of a tapered cylindrical slope portion 9 whose diameter is expanded downward on the inner side are connected in an arc shape. Thus, a concave notch 10 is formed in a portion where the parting line is located, and is cut out over substantially the entire height range.
[0026]
The bottom wall 11 (see FIGS. 2, 3, and 4) has a flat plate-like flat portion 12 that continues to the inner peripheral edge of the leg wall 8, and a central portion of the flat portion 12 that crosses the parting line along the long diameter. Is formed of a thick bulge 13 that has a substantially elliptical arc wall-like dome structure along the parting line and is curved inward of the container 1.
[0027]
The bottom seal portion 14 (see FIGS. 3, 4, and 5) is located across the center of the raised portion 13 of the bottom wall 11 with both ends positioned in the recessed portion 10 of the leg wall 8. When the parison is blow-molded into the container 1, a pair of rib pieces 15 obtained by crushing the parison flatly from the front and back and biting it out are polymerized and pressure-bonded as they are, and the bottom is formed into a ridge shape. The bottom rib 16 is mainly composed of a rib 16, and a biting piece 19, which is a bite of the parison, is formed on the lower end surface of the bottom rib 16 over the substantially entire length of the bottom rib 16. The range is substantially the parison cut-off range w.
[0028]
In the bottom rib 16, a recessed hole 18 that forms a biting portion 17 that bites into the other rib piece 15 from one rib piece 15 has a depth larger than the thickness of the rib piece 15, and reverses the depression direction alternately. The rows are formed.
[0029]
Further, the bottom seal portion 14 has an arch shape that is entirely curved along the elliptical arc surface of the raised portion 13, and the drooping deformation of the central portion of the bottom wall 11 due to the shrinkage deformation with time after completion of blow molding. Is reliably prevented.
[0030]
As is clear from FIG. 4, both end portions of the bottom rib 16 are located in the recessed portion 10 of the leg wall 8, and therefore may have the same height and width as the other portions of the bottom rib 16. For this reason, the entire parison cut-off range w can be set as the bite-forming-formable range v.
[0031]
Therefore, the biting portions 17 can be easily formed on both side ends of the parison biting range w without being obstructed by the slope portion 9 of the leg wall 8, and thereby the biting portions 17 of the parison biting range w Reinforcement is certain.
[0032]
【The invention's effect】
Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, the following effects can be obtained.
[0033]
In the first aspect of the invention, by providing the recessed portions in the leg wall portions where the both end portions of the bottom rib of the bottom seal portion are located, the entire range of the parison biting range of the bottom rib can be formed. Therefore, the pressure-bonding strength of the entire bottom seal portion can be increased, and a blow-molded delaminated plastic container with high resistance to bottom cracking can be provided.
[0034]
In addition, the entire area of the bottom rib parison biting range can be made the range where the bite can be formed, so even if the molding speed of the parison is increased and the swell ratio is increased, the bite is bitten regardless of the size of the parison. The part forming range can be surely placed within the parison cut-off range, and the blow molding production speed of the laminated release plastic container can be increased without difficulty.
[0035]
In the invention according to claim 2, since the biting directions of the adjacent biting portions are reversed, both rib pieces bite into each other and mesh with each other, and the pressure-bonding force between the outer layer and the inner layer at the biting portion This further increases the pressure-bonding area between the outer layer and the inner layer in the bottom seal portion, thereby further increasing the pressure-bonding strength between the outer layer and the inner layer in the bottom seal portion.
[0036]
In addition , the entire bottom rib part located in the parison biting range can be reliably reinforced by the biting portion, thus preventing the occurrence of bottom cracks in the container [Brief description of the drawings]
