However, in the conventional bottle with a handle, the thickness of the fitting portion of the bottle is increased and the strength thereof is secured, so that the material cost increases, and further, when the bottle is blow molded As a result, there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce the entire manufacturing cost of the bottle with a handle.
In addition, since the weight of the bottle with the handle increases, there is a possibility that the handleability may be lowered by attaching the handle.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bottle with a handle that can prevent the handle from being detached from the bottle without increasing the thickness of the bottle.

In order to solve the above-described problems and achieve such an object, the bottle with a handle of the present invention is a handle in which a handle is attached to a bottle made of a synthetic resin having a neck portion and a trunk portion having a diameter larger than that of the neck portion. The handle includes a fitting portion fitted into the neck portion at one end portion, and the other end portion of the handle is attached to the trunk portion in a state where the fitting portion is fitted into the neck portion. And an easy break line extending in a direction in which the other end of the handle extends is formed on the shrink label, and the easy break line is formed on the shrink label. Is opposed to both edges in the width direction of the other end of the handle .

In this invention, since the other end of the handle is attached by a shrink label wound around the trunk, the attachment strength between the other end of the handle and the trunk is secured by a winding force due to shrinkage of the shrink label. can do. This makes it possible to prevent the handle from coming off the barrel without increasing the thickness of the fitting portion with the handle in the barrel, reducing the manufacturing cost of the bottle with the handle, and handling it. It is possible to improve the performance.
Further, by removing the fitting portion from the neck portion and causing the handle to move outward with respect to the bottle, the shrink label is broken along the easy break line by the other end portion of the handle. Is possible. Thereby, after a consumer uses up the contents of a bottle, when a shrink label, a bottle, and a handle are separated and discarded, this separation can be easily performed.

Here, an accommodation groove for accommodating the other end of the handle may be formed in the body portion.
In this case, the shrink label can be smoothly wound around the entire circumference of the trunk without protruding outward including the part to which the handle is attached, and the shrink label is inadvertently broken. Can be prevented. In addition, since the shrink label does not have a bulge, the above-mentioned effects can be provided without distorting characters, patterns, etc. drawn on the label, that is, without impairing the design of the bottle with a handle.

In addition, an uneven portion that engages with each other may be formed on the trunk portion and the other end portion of the handle.
In this case, the engagement makes it possible to reliably prevent the other end of the handle from being displaced upward and coming off the bottle, and the handle can be stably held with respect to the bottle. It is possible to further improve the handleability of the attached bottle.
