Description

  The present invention relates to a container with a cap for preventing tampering in which various kinds of containers such as a cosmetic container, a food container, and a vial can be easily seen whether the cap is opened or not.

  Conventionally, many containers with caps that consist of containers that contain various contents such as cosmetics and foods and caps that are screwed to the mouths of the containers have been on the market. Since the cap is only screwed to the part, the lid can be easily opened. Therefore, there is a risk that the contents are easily falsified.

In order to prevent such tampering and the like, for example, a tamper-proof shrink cap seal 30 as shown in FIG. 12 has been proposed. The shrink cap seal 30 is formed by heat-shrinking and tightening the upper portion 32a of the container 32 closed by the cap 31 and the cap 31 with a cylindrical shrink film tube (not shown) covered. When the cap 31 is rotated together with the shrink cap seal 30, the shrink cap seal 30 is broken, and it can be seen that the cap 31 is opened at a glance (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In the figure, reference numeral 33 denotes a number of cuts provided in the shrink cap seal 30.

  However, in the above-described shrink cap seal 30, the shrink cap seal 30 is covered with the upper portion 32 a of the container 32 and the cap 31 in a close contact manner, and therefore the shrink cap seal 30 is not conspicuous when viewed from a distance. Therefore, when the cap 31 is opened, the shrink cap seal 30 is removed, and then the cap 31 is closed again, the shrink cap seal 30 is removed from a distance (that is, the cap 31 is opened). ) May not be noticed for a long time. In addition, when the cover is opened, it is only necessary to rotate the cap 31 with a small force in the opening direction, and even a child can easily open the cover. Therefore, even when a chemical solution or the like harmful to the human body is stored in the container 32, there is a possibility that an accident or the like may occur in which the child accidentally opens the lid and drinks the chemical solution or the like in the container 32.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a cap-equipped container that can be readily recognized as being opened even from a distance and that is difficult for a child to understand how to open.

  In order to achieve the above object, a container with a cap according to the present invention includes a container, a cap screwed into the mouth of the container, and the cap rotates in the circumferential direction with respect to the mouth in the closed state. A blocking tool, and the blocking tool is composed of a standing plate portion and a pair of left and right lower end engaging portion belt-like hanging portions that detachably detach from both ends of the lower end surface of the standing plate portion, A pair of left and right concave grooves extending in the vertical direction are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cap, and the band-like hanging portion of the blocking device is loosely fitted into the both concave grooves in the closed state, and the engaging portion at the lower end is the mouth of the container The cap is prevented from rotating by engaging with the engaged part provided around the base of the part, and when the lid is opened, the vertical plate part of the blocking device and the two belt-like hanging parts are separated to separate the lower end of the belt-like hanging part. To disengage the engagement part and the engaged part at the base of the mouth and release the detent of the cap A configuration that form was.

  That is, the cap-equipped container of the present invention includes a container, a cap, and a blocking tool, and the blocking tool hangs in a detachable manner from the standing plate portion and both ends of the lower end surface of the standing plate portion. It consists of a belt-like hanging part.
