Description

この発明は、円筒状の容器開口部に樹脂製の蓋が装着された状態で使用される容器の蓋であって、蓋がヒンジ部を有していて、蓋を缶等の容器の開口部に装着した状態のまま開けて、スプーン等により粉体等の内容物を取り出すことが可能なヒンジ蓋に関し、特に、使用される際に、蓋が開いた状態を維持できるヒンジ蓋に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a container lid used in a state where a resin lid is attached to a cylindrical container opening, the lid has a hinge portion, and the lid is an opening of a container such as a can. In particular, the present invention relates to a hinge lid that can be opened while being attached to the inside and can take out contents such as powder with a spoon, and the like, and more particularly, relates to a hinge lid that can keep the lid open when used. .

この種のヒンジ蓋としては種々のものが提案されており、例えば、ヒンジ蓋を開けた時に、側壁部が破断して分離し、分離した一方が容器に固定される固定部となり、他方がヒンジ部を中心として開閉動作が可能な開閉部となり、この開閉部を開いてヒンジ蓋を開けた状態にしたときに、分離した側壁部の開閉部側の端部が容器の開口端部に係合することにより、蓋が開いた状態を維持することができるヒンジ蓋がある(特許文献1,2参照)。   Various types of hinge lids of this type have been proposed. For example, when the hinge lid is opened, the side wall portion is broken and separated, and one separated is a fixed portion fixed to the container, and the other is a hinge. The opening / closing part that can be opened / closed around this part is opened, and when this opening / closing part is opened and the hinge lid is opened, the end of the separated side wall part on the opening / closing part side engages with the opening end of the container By doing so, there is a hinge lid that can keep the lid open (see Patent Documents 1 and 2).

上記のようなヒンジ蓋においては、ヒンジ蓋を最初に開けた際に、側壁部が破断して分離し、その分離した側壁部の開閉部側の端部が容器の開口端部に係合することが可能となり、蓋が開いた状態を維持する。そして、蓋を閉める際には、係合していた側壁部の端部が容器開口端部より外側へ弾性的に変形し、係合が解かれて蓋を閉めることができるようになる。   In the hinge lid as described above, when the hinge lid is first opened, the side wall portion is broken and separated, and the end portion of the separated side wall portion on the opening / closing portion side is engaged with the opening end portion of the container. And the lid remains open. When the lid is closed, the end of the engaged side wall is elastically deformed outward from the end of the container opening, and the engagement is released and the lid can be closed.

上記のようなヒンジ蓋においては、蓋が開いた状態を維持する為に、ヒンジ部よりも固定部側へ所定量ずれた位置で側壁部が分離するように構成されている。このようにすることで、分離した側壁部の開閉部側の端部の位置をヒンジ部の薄肉部よりも固定部側へずらすことにより、より大きな角度でヒンジ蓋が開いた状態を維持することができる。このような場合、図11に示すような形状で、側壁部がヒンジ部の位置から固定部側へずれた位置で破断して分離し、容器の開口端部と係合する係合部が形成され、図12に示すように開閉部を開いていくと、所定の角度で蓋が開いた状態を維持するようにヒンジ蓋が構成されていた。

The hinge lid as described above is configured such that the side wall portion is separated at a position shifted by a predetermined amount from the hinge portion toward the fixed portion side in order to maintain the lid open. By doing in this way, the state where the hinge lid is opened at a larger angle is maintained by shifting the position of the end portion of the separated side wall portion on the opening / closing portion side to the fixed portion side rather than the thin portion of the hinge portion. Can do. In such a case, an engagement portion is formed which has a shape as shown in FIG. 11 and is broken and separated at a position where the side wall portion deviates from the position of the hinge portion to the fixed portion side and engages with the opening end portion of the container. Then, as shown in FIG. 12, when the opening / closing part is opened, the hinge lid is configured to maintain a state where the lid is opened at a predetermined angle.

上記のようなヒンジ蓋の場合、分離した係合部の端部のうち、蓋が開いた状態でヒンジ部側に位置する領域、すなわち係合部の端部のうち、蓋が閉じた状態で比較的上方に位置する領域が容器開口端部と係合して蓋が開いた状態を維持する。図10はヒンジ蓋の上面図であって、開閉部が開いている時の容器開口端部の位置と係合部の位置関係を表す図である。   In the case of the hinge lid as described above, among the separated end portions of the engaging portion, the region located on the hinge portion side with the lid open, that is, the end portion of the engaging portion with the lid closed. A relatively upper region is engaged with the container opening end to maintain the lid open. FIG. 10 is a top view of the hinge lid, showing the positional relationship between the position of the container opening end and the engaging portion when the opening / closing portion is open.

図10に示すように、側壁部のうち、蓋が開いた状態で開閉部側に位置する領域、すなわち係合部の端部のうち、蓋が閉じた状態で比較的下方に位置する領域が開口端部と係合せず、開口端部から内側へ僅かに入り込んだ位置で端部の先端が浮いた状態になる(図10に斜線部で示した非接触領域)。このような状態で使用者が蓋を閉めようとするとき、係合していた側壁部の端部が容器開口部より外側へ弾性的に変形しない場合があり、そうすると、係合部の先端部が容器開口部の内側へ倒れ込んで開口端部に引っかかり、側壁部が内側へ折れ込むように変形して、蓋が閉まらなくなる場合があった。このような現象は、開閉部を一旦、開く方向へ動かして係合部の端部を容器開口端部から外し、その後に開閉部をしめる場合には比較的発生しにくいが、開いた状態で維持された開閉部を一旦、開く方向に動かすことなく、係合部が開口端部に係合した状態のまま開閉部を閉じようとする場合に発生し易い。これは、係合部が円弧状に湾曲した形状をしている為、開いた状態を維持して容器開口端部に係合している間は、わずかに内側へたわむように変形している。この状態から、一旦、開閉部を開く動作を行って、係合部を開口端部から外すと、係合部は復元力により外側へ変形するので、その後に開閉部を閉じても係合部が容器開口端部に引っかかることは比較的少なくなるが、このような動作を行うことなく、そのまま蓋を閉じようとすると、内側へたわんだ状態の係合部は内側へ折れ込み易く、従って、蓋が閉まらなくなる状態が発生し易くなる。このような場合、使用者は、再度蓋を開けて、内側に折れ込んで引っかかった係合部を外側に変形させて蓋を閉め直さなければならず、開閉操作が円滑に行えないという問題があった。   As shown in FIG. 10, an area located on the opening / closing part side with the lid opened in the side wall part, that is, an area located relatively lower with the lid closed on the end part of the engaging part. The tip end of the end portion floats at a position where it does not engage with the opening end portion and slightly enters inward from the opening end portion (a non-contact region indicated by a hatched portion in FIG. 10). When the user tries to close the lid in such a state, the end of the engaged side wall may not be elastically deformed outward from the container opening. Falls into the inside of the container opening and is caught by the opening end, and the side wall is deformed so as to be folded inward, and the lid may not be closed. Such a phenomenon is relatively unlikely to occur when the opening / closing part is once moved in the opening direction to remove the end of the engaging part from the container opening end and then the opening / closing part is tightened. This is likely to occur when the opened / closed portion is to be closed without moving the maintained opening / closing portion once in the opening direction and the engagement portion is engaged with the opening end. This is because the engaging portion is curved in an arc shape, so that it is deformed to bend slightly inward while maintaining the open state and engaging the container opening end. . From this state, once the opening / closing part is opened and the engaging part is removed from the opening end, the engaging part is deformed to the outside by the restoring force. However, if the lid is closed without performing such an operation, the engagement portion bent inward is easily folded inward, and therefore, A state in which the lid does not close easily occurs. In such a case, the user must open the lid again, deform the engaging portion that is folded inward and deforms outward, and then close the lid again, and the opening / closing operation cannot be performed smoothly. there were.

本発明は、上記のような従来技術の問題点に鑑み、開いた状態を維持したヒンジ蓋を開閉する際に、容器開口部に側壁部が引っかかることなく、良好に蓋を閉めることができ、開閉操作が円滑に行えるヒンジ蓋を提供することを目的とする。   In view of the problems of the prior art as described above, the present invention can satisfactorily close the lid without opening the side wall to the container opening when opening and closing the hinge lid that is kept open. An object of the present invention is to provide a hinge lid that can be smoothly opened and closed.

It is a synthetic resin hinge lid characterized by including a part in at least a part.

請求項1に記載の発明によれば、前記側壁部に、前記ヒンジ部よりも固定部側にずれた位置で、前記開閉部を開口操作することにより、前記側壁部の上端部まで固定部側の側壁部と開閉部側の側壁部とに分離させる側壁分離部が設けられ、また、前記天板部に、前記開閉部を開口操作することにより、前記側壁分離部から前記ヒンジ部までの間で、ヒンジ蓋が容器の開口端部に装着された際に容器開口端部の直上に位置する領域を少なくとも含んで前記側壁部と前記天板部とを分離させる天板分離部が設けられ、前記側壁分離部と天板分離部が接続するように設けられていることにより、ヒンジ蓋のヒンジ部と反対側の開閉部の端部を上方へ持ち上げることにより、まず前記側壁分離部が分離し、更に、前記天板分離部が分離し、ヒンジ部から固定部側へずれた位置に端部を有する係合部が形成されるので、ヒンジ蓋を開けて係合部を容器開口端に係合させることができる。

According to the invention described in claim 1, the side wall portion, at a position shifted to the fixed portion side of the hinge portion, by opening operation of the opening and closing portion, the fixed portion to the upper end portion of the side wall portions A side wall separation part for separating the side wall part from the side wall part on the side of the opening and closing part is provided, and the opening and closing part is opened on the top plate part, so that the space between the side wall separation part and the hinge part is provided. Then, when the hinge lid is attached to the opening end of the container, a top plate separating part that separates the side wall part and the top plate part including at least a region located immediately above the container opening end part is provided, By providing the side wall separating portion and the top plate separating portion so as to be connected, the side wall separating portion is first separated by lifting the end of the opening / closing portion opposite to the hinge portion of the hinge lid upward. In addition, the top plate separation part is separated and the hinge part is The engaging portion having an end portion displaced to the fixed portion side position is formed, the engagement portion can be engaged with the container open end to open the hinged lid.

すなわち、図5および図6に示すように、ヒンジ部から所定の幅だけ固定部側にずれた位置に側壁分離部が形成されているので、開閉部を上方へ持ち上げた時に、側壁分離部が分離されて、ヒンジ部の位置における容器開口端部の外周よりも容器内側に距離Lだけ入り込んだ位置に、開閉部を開いた時に容器開口端部と係合可能な係合辺部が形成される。また、側壁分離部から前記ヒンジ部までの間で、ヒンジ蓋が容器の開口端部に装着された際に開口端部の直上に位置する領域を含んで天板分離部が形成されているので、ヒンジ部と反対側の開閉部の端部を上方へ持ち上げた時に、天板部のうち、側壁部の上面に当たる部分が分離され、さらに、図6に示すように、側壁分離部の上端部までが固定部側へずれた位置に形成されていることにより、ヒンジ部から固定部側へずれた位置に端部を有する係合部が形成される。そして、開閉部を開くと、係合部は容器開口端部の側面に沿って、外側に開くように弾性的に変形し、係合部が容器開口端よりも高い位置になった時に、容器開口端部と係合することができ、また、側壁部の上端部までが係合部とされていることから、従来に比べて係合部が補強されることとなり、係合部が容器開口端部に係止したときに、係合部が内側に向かってたわむような変形を生じにくくする。そのため、係合部が容器開口端部に引っかかって開閉部がしまらなくなることが防止される。さらに、後述する非係合辺部を係合部に設けたような形状となっていても、係合部は適度な強度を維持できるので、安定して開閉部が開いた状態を維持できる。   That is, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, since the side wall separating portion is formed at a position shifted from the hinge portion to the fixed portion side by a predetermined width, when the opening / closing portion is lifted upward, the side wall separating portion is An engagement side portion that can be engaged with the container opening end when the opening / closing portion is opened is formed at a position separated from the outer periphery of the container opening end at the hinge portion by a distance L inside the container. The In addition, since the top plate separation part is formed between the side wall separation part and the hinge part, including a region located immediately above the opening end when the hinge lid is mounted on the opening end of the container. When the end of the opening / closing part opposite to the hinge part is lifted upward, the top plate part is separated from the upper part of the side wall part as shown in FIG. As a result, the engaging portion having an end portion is formed at a position shifted from the hinge portion toward the fixed portion. When the opening / closing part is opened, the engaging part is elastically deformed so as to open outward along the side surface of the container opening end, and when the engaging part is positioned higher than the container opening end, Since it is possible to engage with the opening end and the engagement portion extends to the upper end of the side wall portion, the engagement portion is reinforced compared to the conventional case, and the engagement portion is opened in the container. When locked to the end portion, it is difficult to cause deformation such that the engaging portion bends inward. Therefore, it is prevented that the engaging part is caught by the container opening end part and the opening / closing part is not closed. Furthermore, even if the engagement portion has a shape such that a non-engagement side portion to be described later is provided in the engagement portion, the engagement portion can maintain an appropriate strength, so that the open / close portion can be stably maintained in an open state.

請求項2に記載の発明では、前記係合部の端部に、前記開閉部が開いた状態を維持する際に容器開口端部と係合する係合辺部が、前記係合部の端部の上端から所定の長さで設けられ、前記係合辺部が容器開口端部に係合した状態では容器開口端部と係合しない非係合辺部が前記係合辺部の下方で開閉部側に向かって延びるように形成されていることにより、開閉部が開いた状態が維持されたヒンジ蓋を閉じる場合に、係合部の端部が容器開口端から内側へ折れ込むことが無く、係合部が容器開口端部に引っかかって蓋が閉まらなくなることが防止され、良好にヒンジ蓋の開閉を行うことができるという効果を奏する。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, an engagement side part that engages with the container opening end when the opening / closing part is maintained in an open state is provided at an end of the engagement part. A non-engagement side portion that is provided at a predetermined length from the upper end of the portion and does not engage with the container opening end portion in a state where the engagement side portion engages with the container opening end portion is below the engagement side portion. By closing the hinge lid with the opening / closing part kept open, the end of the engaging part may be folded inward from the container opening end. In addition, it is possible to prevent the engaging portion from being caught by the container opening end and the lid from being closed, and the hinge lid can be opened and closed satisfactorily.

すなわち、係合部の端部の上端から所定の長さで容器開口端部と係合して前記開閉部が開いた状態を維持する際に容器開口端部と係合する係合辺部が前記係合部の端部の上端から所定の長さで設けられ、前記係合辺部が容器開口端部に係合した状態では容器開口端部と係合しない非係合辺部が前記係合辺部の下方で開閉部側に向かって延びるように形成されていることにより、側壁部に形成された係合部のうち、係合辺部の下方から開閉部側の一部の領域が切り取られたような形状の係合部が形成される。したがって、開いた状態を維持したヒンジ蓋を閉める際に、容器開口部の内側に折れ込む部分が存在しないこととなり、従来のヒンジ蓋のように、蓋を閉める際に係合部が開口端部に引っかかって蓋が閉まらなくなるようなことが防止され、良好にヒンジ蓋の開閉を行うことができる。   That is, the engagement side portion that engages with the container opening end when engaging with the container opening end with a predetermined length from the upper end of the end of the engagement portion and maintaining the open / close portion in an open state. A non-engagement side portion that is provided with a predetermined length from the upper end of the end portion of the engagement portion and that does not engage with the container opening end portion when the engagement side portion engages with the container opening end portion is the engagement portion. By being formed so as to extend toward the opening / closing part side below the joint side part, among the engaging parts formed on the side wall part, a part of the region on the opening / closing part side from below the engaging side part is formed. An engaging portion shaped like a cut-out is formed. Therefore, when the hinge lid that is kept open is closed, there is no portion that folds inside the container opening. When the lid is closed like the conventional hinge lid, the engaging portion is the opening end. It is possible to prevent the lid from being closed by being caught on the door, and the hinge lid can be opened and closed satisfactorily.

請求項3に記載の発明では、係合辺部に連なる非係合辺部に傾斜部を設けることにより、容器開口端部に接触しながら、ヒンジ蓋の側壁部が順次、容器外側へ変形するので、ヒンジ蓋の係合部あるいは側壁部が容器開口端部に引っかかることを防止しつつ、さらに開閉部を閉じる際の抵抗が軽減され、スムーズにヒンジ蓋を閉じることができる。   In the invention according to claim 3, by providing the inclined portion on the non-engagement side portion connected to the engagement side portion, the side wall portion of the hinge lid is sequentially deformed to the outside of the container while contacting the container opening end portion. Therefore, while preventing the engaging portion or the side wall portion of the hinge lid from being caught by the container opening end portion, the resistance when closing the opening / closing portion is further reduced, and the hinge lid can be closed smoothly.

以下、本発明の最良の実施形態について図面に基づいて説明する。   Hereinafter, the best embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

実施例1におけるヒンジ蓋1は、合成樹脂により形成される。使用される樹脂は、この種の蓋やキャップ等に使用される樹脂であればよく、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン等の樹脂を用いることができる。   The hinge lid 1 in the first embodiment is formed of a synthetic resin. The resin used may be a resin used for this kind of lid, cap, or the like, and a resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene can be used.

図1に示すように、ヒンジ蓋1の頂部を構成する円盤状の天板部10には、天板部10の直径以下の長さで天板部10を直線状に横断するヒンジ部2が設けられている。このヒンジ部2を境界として図1中左側に開閉部11が、図1中右側に固定部12がそれぞれ形成され、実施例1では、固定部12の面積は開閉部11の面積よりも小さくなっている。開閉部11と固定部12は、共に容器開口端部に着脱可能に固定されている(図8参照)が、固定部12は比較的強固に固定されており、一方、開閉部11は、薄肉部となっているヒンジ部2を回転軸として回動可能に構成され、ヒンジ蓋1が固定される容器開口部(容器開口部の大部分)を開閉部11が開閉する役割を担っている(図9参照)。   As shown in FIG. 1, the disc-shaped top plate portion 10 constituting the top of the hinge lid 1 has a hinge portion 2 that linearly crosses the top plate portion 10 with a length equal to or less than the diameter of the top plate portion 10. Is provided. With the hinge 2 as a boundary, an opening / closing part 11 is formed on the left side in FIG. 1 and a fixing part 12 is formed on the right side in FIG. 1. In the first embodiment, the area of the fixing part 12 is smaller than the area of the opening / closing part 11. ing. Both the opening / closing part 11 and the fixing part 12 are detachably fixed to the opening end of the container (see FIG. 8), but the fixing part 12 is relatively firmly fixed, whereas the opening / closing part 11 has a thin wall. The hinge part 2 is configured to be rotatable about the rotation axis, and the opening / closing part 11 opens and closes the container opening (most part of the container opening) to which the hinge lid 1 is fixed ( (See FIG. 9).

図2に示すように、天板部10の周縁から垂下している側壁部20には、ヒンジ部2よりも固定部12側にずれた位置に、下端に設けられた台形の切り欠き部25の上端から垂直方向に延びて側壁部20の上端にまで達している側壁分離部20aが設けられている。実施例1において、側壁分離部20aは周囲の側壁部20よりも薄肉とされた弱化部として形成されている。そして、最初に開閉部11を開ける時(ヒンジ部2と反対側の開閉部11の端部を持ち上げる時)には側壁分離部20aが破断するように構成されている。また、側壁分離部20aが側壁部20の最上端に至るまで、ヒンジ部2から固定部12側にずれた位置に形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, a trapezoidal cutout portion 25 provided at the lower end of the side wall portion 20 hanging from the peripheral edge of the top plate portion 10 is located at a position shifted from the hinge portion 2 toward the fixed portion 12. A side wall separation portion 20 a extending in the vertical direction from the upper end of the side wall and reaching the upper end of the side wall portion 20 is provided. In the first embodiment, the side wall separation portion 20 a is formed as a weakened portion that is thinner than the surrounding side wall portion 20. When the opening / closing part 11 is first opened (when the end of the opening / closing part 11 opposite to the hinge part 2 is lifted), the side wall separation part 20a is configured to break. Further, the side wall separating portion 20 a is formed at a position shifted from the hinge portion 2 toward the fixed portion 12 until reaching the uppermost end of the side wall portion 20.

図3は実施例1のヒンジ蓋1の底面図である。側壁部20の内側に所定間隔を開けて内壁部13が設けられ、側壁部20の内側に設けられた係止爪23との間で容器の開口端部を挟み込むことにより、図8に示すようにヒンジ蓋1が容器に嵌着される。開閉部11側には5箇所に係止爪23が設けられ、開閉部11を閉めた際に開閉部11が容器開口端部に係止されるようになっている。固定部12側では、容器開口端部と係合する固定部12の円弧のほぼ全周にわたって係止爪24が設けられることにより、固定部12が容器開口端部から容易に外れないように構成されている。   FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the hinge lid 1 of the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8, an inner wall portion 13 is provided at a predetermined interval inside the side wall portion 20, and the opening end portion of the container is sandwiched between the inner wall portion 20 and a locking claw 23 provided inside the side wall portion 20. The hinge lid 1 is fitted into the container. Locking claws 23 are provided at five locations on the opening / closing part 11 side, and the opening / closing part 11 is locked to the container opening end when the opening / closing part 11 is closed. On the fixed part 12 side, a locking claw 24 is provided over substantially the entire circumference of the arc of the fixed part 12 that engages with the container opening end, so that the fixing part 12 is not easily detached from the container opening end. Has been.

図4は図1のA−A線における断面図である。ヒンジ部2は固定部12および開閉部11よりも天板部10の板厚が薄くされた薄肉部として形成されている。すなわち、ヒンジ部2近傍の固定部12及び開閉部11は、ヒンジ部2へ近づくにつれて、天板部10の上面から下面に向けて徐々に薄肉とされ、ヒンジ部2近傍の天板部10の下面側は段差等のない平面として形成されている。   4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. The hinge portion 2 is formed as a thin portion in which the top plate portion 10 is thinner than the fixed portion 12 and the opening / closing portion 11. That is, the fixing portion 12 and the opening / closing portion 11 in the vicinity of the hinge portion 2 are gradually thinned from the upper surface to the lower surface of the top plate portion 10 as the hinge portion 2 is approached. The lower surface side is formed as a flat surface having no step.

図5にヒンジ部2の一方の端部における天板分離部10a及び側壁分離部20aを含む領域を拡大した図を示す。天板分離部10aはヒンジ部2とほぼ同じ厚さの弱化部として形成されており、最初にヒンジ蓋1を開けたときに破断して分離するように構成されている。   FIG. 5 shows an enlarged view of a region including the top plate separation part 10a and the side wall separation part 20a at one end of the hinge part 2. FIG. The top plate separating portion 10a is formed as a weakened portion having substantially the same thickness as the hinge portion 2, and is configured to be broken and separated when the hinge lid 1 is first opened.

図6にヒンジ部2の側面を一部拡大して示す。実施例1では、天板分離部10aは、破線で示すように、ヒンジ部2と同じ厚さの薄肉部として構成され、ヒンジ蓋1が容器開口端部に嵌着されたときに、開口端部の直上に位置する領域を含むように設けられている。図6中に実線で示された側壁分離部20aと破線で示された天板分離部10aは、図中、これらの実線と破線が交わる位置で接続しており、開閉部を最初に開けたときに、この接続した部分を介して一体的に破断して分離する。このように構成された側壁分離部20aと天板分離部10aにより係合部が形成される。   FIG. 6 shows a partially enlarged side view of the hinge portion 2. In the first embodiment, the top plate separating part 10a is configured as a thin part having the same thickness as the hinge part 2 as shown by a broken line, and when the hinge lid 1 is fitted to the container opening end part, It is provided so that the area | region located immediately above a part may be included. The side wall separator 20a indicated by the solid line in FIG. 6 and the top plate separator 10a indicated by the broken line are connected at a position where the solid line and the broken line intersect in the figure, and the opening / closing part is opened first. Sometimes it breaks and separates through this connected part. An engaging portion is formed by the side wall separating portion 20a and the top plate separating portion 10a thus configured.

図2に示すように、係合部は、開閉部11側と固定部12側に分離した側壁部20のうち、ヒンジ部2から固定部12側へずれた端部を有する部分として形成される。係合部は、開閉部11を開いた際に容器開口端部と係合する係合辺部22と、係合辺部22の下方で、開閉部11側へ向かって延びる非係合辺部21を有している。係合辺部22はヒンジ部2よりも固定部12側にずれたところに位置しており、本実施例1では、上端部から垂直に所定の長さで係合辺部22が形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the engaging portion is formed as a portion having an end portion shifted from the hinge portion 2 to the fixing portion 12 side in the side wall portion 20 separated into the opening / closing portion 11 side and the fixing portion 12 side. . The engaging part includes an engaging side part 22 that engages with the container opening end when the opening / closing part 11 is opened, and a non-engaging side part that extends below the engaging side part 22 toward the opening / closing part 11 side. 21. The engaging side portion 22 is located at a position shifted from the hinge portion 2 toward the fixed portion 12 side. In the first embodiment, the engaging side portion 22 is formed with a predetermined length perpendicularly from the upper end portion. Yes.

図6に非係合辺部に設けた傾斜部を示す。係合辺部22の下方に、開閉部11側へ向かって傾斜する直線部として設けられた傾斜部を有する非係合辺部21が形成されている(換言すると、係合辺部22の下方の側壁部20に台形の切り欠き部25が設けられている)。この非係合辺部21は、開閉部11を閉じる際に、係合部が容器開口端部に引っかかることを防止するためのものである。   FIG. 6 shows an inclined portion provided on the non-engaging side. A non-engaging side portion 21 having an inclined portion provided as a linear portion inclined toward the opening / closing portion 11 side is formed below the engaging side portion 22 (in other words, below the engaging side portion 22. The side wall portion 20 is provided with a trapezoidal cutout portion 25). The non-engaging side portion 21 is for preventing the engaging portion from being caught by the container opening end when the opening / closing portion 11 is closed.

図7に側壁分離部20a近傍の領域の底面図の拡大図を示す。実施例1ではヒンジ蓋1に、側壁部20と所定間隔をあけて内壁部13が設けられているため、内壁部13も分離するように、内壁分離部13aが設けられている。この内壁分離部13aも薄肉化された弱化部として形成され、最初にヒンジ蓋1を開ける際に破断して分離するように構成されている。   FIG. 7 shows an enlarged view of a bottom view of a region in the vicinity of the side wall separation portion 20a. In the first embodiment, the hinge lid 1 is provided with the inner wall portion 13 at a predetermined interval from the side wall portion 20, and thus the inner wall separation portion 13 a is provided so as to separate the inner wall portion 13. The inner wall separating portion 13a is also formed as a weakened portion that is thinned, and is configured to be broken and separated when the hinge lid 1 is first opened.

次に、上記構成に基づく作用を列挙して説明する。   Next, actions based on the above configuration will be listed and described.

(a1)側壁部20には、ヒンジ部2よりも固定部12側にずれた位置に側壁分離部20aが設けられている。この側壁分離部20aは、周囲の側壁部20よりも薄肉とされた弱化部として形成されている。そして、最初に開閉部11を開ける時には側壁分離部20aが破断するように構成されている。   (a1) The side wall part 20 is provided with a side wall separation part 20a at a position shifted from the hinge part 2 toward the fixed part 12 side. The side wall separation portion 20 a is formed as a weakened portion that is thinner than the surrounding side wall portion 20. And when opening the opening-and-closing part 11 for the first time, the side wall isolation | separation part 20a is comprised so that it may fracture | rupture.

このように構成することにより、ヒンジ蓋1が未だ開けられていないものか、既に開けられたものかを使用者が識別することができるため、流通段階で何者かが蓋を開けていないかどうかを知ることができ、ヒンジ蓋1にいたずら防止機能(ピルファープルーフ機能)を付与することができる。   By configuring in this way, the user can identify whether the hinge lid 1 has not been opened or has already been opened, so whether or not someone has opened the lid at the distribution stage. And a function to prevent mischief (a pilfer proof function) can be imparted to the hinge lid 1.

(a2)側壁分離部20aが側壁部20の最上端においてもヒンジ部2から固定部12側にずれた位置に形成されている。このように形成されることで係合部の強度を保ち、係合部が容器開口端部の内側に倒れ込んで引っかかり開閉部がしまらなくなることが防止され、また、開閉部11が開いた状態を安定して維持できる。   (a2) The side wall separation portion 20a is formed at a position shifted from the hinge portion 2 toward the fixed portion 12 even at the uppermost end of the side wall portion 20. By being formed in this way, it is possible to maintain the strength of the engaging portion, prevent the engaging portion from falling into the inside of the container opening end portion and catching the opening and closing portion, and the opening and closing portion 11 being opened. Can be maintained stably.

すなわち、図11に示すような、天板分離部を設けず、係合部の最上端がヒンジ部の薄肉部に一致するような形状では、係合部の上部が切り取られたような形状となり、その分だけ係合部の強度が低下する。すると、係合部が円弧状に湾曲した形状をしている為、開いた状態を維持している間、内側へたわむように変形する変形量が比較的大きくなる。そのため、開閉部を閉じようとする際に係合部が容器開口端部に引っかかりやすくなる。また、実施例1のように、係合辺部22の下方の一部が切り取られたような形状として(係合辺部22の下方部分を切り欠いて切り欠き部25として)係合部に非係合辺部21を設ける場合には、図11に示した従来例のように係合部の上部が切り取られたような形状とすると、係合部の強度の低下はさらに顕著となり、一旦、開かれた開閉部が弾性により閉じようとする力によって係合部が容器内側または外側に変形して係合が外れる場合があり、開閉部が開いた状態を安定して維持することが出来なくなる。   That is, as shown in FIG. 11, when the top plate separation part is not provided and the uppermost end of the engagement part coincides with the thin part of the hinge part, the upper part of the engagement part is cut off. As a result, the strength of the engaging portion is lowered accordingly. Then, since the engaging portion has an arcuate shape, the amount of deformation that deforms so as to bend inward while maintaining the open state is relatively large. Therefore, when the opening / closing part is to be closed, the engaging part is easily caught by the container opening end. In addition, as in the first embodiment, a shape in which a part of the lower side of the engaging side part 22 is cut off (the lower part of the engaging side part 22 is cut out as a notch part 25) to the engaging part. When the non-engagement side portion 21 is provided, if the upper portion of the engagement portion is cut off as in the conventional example shown in FIG. The engagement part may be deformed inside or outside the container due to the force of the opened opening / closing part to close due to elasticity, and the engagement may be disengaged, so that the opening / closing part can be stably maintained. Disappear.

これに対し、実施例1では、天板分離部10aおよび側壁分離部20aを設けてあるので、開閉部11を最初に持ち上げた際に、側壁部20の上端までがヒンジ部2から固定部12側にずれた位置で分離し、係合部が側壁部20の上端の位置まで設けられることにより、係合部の強度が適度に保たれ、良好に開閉部11が開いた状態を維持でき、また、係合部が容器開口端部の内側に倒れ込み難くなり、係合部が引っかかって開閉部が閉まらなくなることが防止される。   On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the top plate separating portion 10a and the side wall separating portion 20a are provided. Therefore, when the opening / closing portion 11 is first lifted, the upper end of the side wall portion 20 extends from the hinge portion 2 to the fixing portion 12. It is separated at a position shifted to the side, and the engaging portion is provided up to the position of the upper end of the side wall portion 20, so that the strength of the engaging portion can be maintained moderately, and the opening / closing portion 11 can be maintained in an open state, In addition, it is difficult for the engaging portion to fall into the inside of the container opening end, and it is prevented that the engaging portion is caught and the opening / closing portion is not closed.

ここで、側壁部20において、ヒンジ部2の位置から側壁分離部20aを設ける位置までの距離を大きくすると、係合部が固定部12側へ突出する距離が大きくなるので、開閉部11を開くときに、係合部の端部が開口端部に係合するまでに開閉部11を開く角度が大きくなる。従って、ヒンジ部2の位置から側壁分離部20aまでの距離を大きくするほど、角度が大きく開いた状態で開閉部の開いた状態を維持することができるが、距離を大きくしすぎると係合辺部22が容器内側に入り込みすぎて容器開口端部に係合しなくなるので、ヒンジ部2の位置、側壁部20の厚さ、高さ及び係合辺部22の形状、容器開口端部の直径、開閉部11がどの位の角度で開いた状態を維持するか等を考慮して適宜定めることができる。   Here, in the side wall part 20, when the distance from the position of the hinge part 2 to the position where the side wall separation part 20 a is provided is increased, the distance that the engaging part protrudes toward the fixing part 12 side increases, so the opening / closing part 11 is opened. Sometimes, the opening angle of the opening / closing part 11 increases until the end of the engaging part engages with the opening end. Therefore, as the distance from the position of the hinge part 2 to the side wall separating part 20a is increased, the opening / closing part can be maintained in the open state with the angle being greatly opened. Since the part 22 enters the inside of the container too much and does not engage with the container opening end part, the position of the hinge part 2, the thickness of the side wall part 20, the height and the shape of the engaging side part 22, the diameter of the container opening end part The angle can be determined appropriately in consideration of the angle at which the opening / closing portion 11 is kept open.

(a3)天板分離部10aを薄肉部として構成した。これにより、ヒンジ蓋1が未だ開けられていないものか、既に開けられたものかを使用者が識別することができるため、流通段階で何者かが蓋を開けていないかどうかを知ることができ、ヒンジ蓋1にいたずら防止機能(ピルファープルーフ機能)を付与することができる。   (a3) The top plate separating part 10a is configured as a thin part. Thereby, since the user can identify whether the hinge lid 1 has not been opened yet or has been opened, it is possible to know whether or not someone has opened the lid at the distribution stage. The tamper-proof function (pill fur proof function) can be imparted to the hinge lid 1.

(a4)非係合辺部21を設けることとした。これにより、図11に示すような従来のヒンジ蓋における容器開口端の内側に倒れ込む部分が存在しなくなるので、ヒンジ蓋を閉める際に側壁部が引っかかって蓋が閉まらなくなることを防止できる。   (a4) The non-engaging side portion 21 is provided. As a result, the conventional hinge lid as shown in FIG. 11 does not have a portion that falls down inside the container opening end, so that when the hinge lid is closed, the side wall portion is caught and the lid cannot be closed.

尚、側壁部20の下端から非係合辺部21の上端までの高さ(切り欠き部25の高さ)Hは、開いたヒンジ蓋1を閉める際に容器開口端部に引っかからない程度の高さに定めればよい。好ましくは、開閉部11を開いて係合辺部22が容器開口端に係止した際に、係合辺部22の端部のうち、図10に示した非接触領域に存在する部分の割合が出来るだけ少なくなるように設定する。より好ましくは、係合辺部22の端部が図10に示した非接触領域に存在しないように設定する。このように設定することで、係合辺部22が容器開口端部に引っかかって蓋が閉められなくなることが確実に防止でき、また、係合辺部22が容器開口端部の内側に出っ張らないので、開閉部11を閉める際の抵抗を小さくでき、蓋をより閉めやすくすることができる。   In addition, the height (height of the notch part 25) H from the lower end of the side wall part 20 to the upper end of the non-engagement side part 21 is a grade which is not caught by the container opening end part when the opened hinge lid 1 is closed. The height can be set. Preferably, when the opening / closing part 11 is opened and the engagement side part 22 is locked to the container opening end, the proportion of the end part of the engagement side part 22 that exists in the non-contact region shown in FIG. Set to be as small as possible. More preferably, the end of the engagement side portion 22 is set so as not to exist in the non-contact area shown in FIG. By setting in this way, it is possible to reliably prevent the engagement side portion 22 from being caught by the container opening end portion and the lid from being closed, and the engagement side portion 22 does not protrude to the inside of the container opening end portion. Therefore, the resistance when closing the opening / closing part 11 can be reduced, and the lid can be more easily closed.

(a5)非係合辺部21に傾斜部21aを設けた。この場合には、図9に示すように、開いた状態の開閉部11を回動させて閉め始めると、係合辺部22が容器開口端部の外側に向かって弾性的に変形することにより、容器開口端部から外れて係合が解かれ、開閉部11を更に閉めていくと、非係合辺部21を傾斜状としているので、係合辺部22に連なる非係合辺部21の傾斜部21aが容器開口端部に接触しながら、ヒンジ蓋1の側壁部20が順次、容器外側へ変形していく。従って、ヒンジ蓋1の係合部あるいは側壁部20が容器開口端部に引っかかることを防止しつつ、さらに開閉部を閉じる際の抵抗が軽減され、スムーズにヒンジ蓋1を閉じることができるという効果を奏する。   (a5) The inclined portion 21 a is provided on the non-engaging side portion 21. In this case, as shown in FIG. 9, when the opening / closing portion 11 is turned and started to close, the engagement side portion 22 elastically deforms toward the outside of the container opening end portion. When the engagement is released from the container opening end and the opening / closing part 11 is further closed, the non-engagement side part 21 is inclined, so that the non-engagement side part 21 connected to the engagement side part 22 is inclined. While the inclined portion 21a is in contact with the container opening end, the side wall portion 20 of the hinge lid 1 is sequentially deformed to the outside of the container. Therefore, while preventing the engaging portion or the side wall portion 20 of the hinge lid 1 from being caught by the container opening end portion, the resistance when closing the opening / closing portion is further reduced, and the hinge lid 1 can be smoothly closed. Play.

このように、非係合辺部21を傾斜状に構成することで、ヒンジ蓋1を閉じる際に、非係合辺部21が容器開口端部に接触して側壁部の容器外側への変形をガイドするようにして、開閉部11を閉める際の抵抗を軽減し、滑らかに閉めることができる。この非係合辺部21の傾斜角度は適宜定めることができるが、非係合辺部21が水平方向と成す角度αは80°以下が好ましい。この範囲の角度とすることで、ヒンジ蓋1を閉める際の非係合辺部21と容器開口端部の接触による抵抗を軽減し、スムーズに閉めることができ、好適に側壁部20を外側に変形させて容器開口端部への引っ掛かりを防止する効果を奏することができる。   In this way, by configuring the non-engaging side portion 21 to be inclined, when the hinge lid 1 is closed, the non-engaging side portion 21 comes into contact with the container opening end and the side wall portion is deformed to the outside of the container. Thus, the resistance when the opening / closing part 11 is closed can be reduced and the opening / closing part 11 can be closed smoothly. Although the inclination angle of the non-engaging side portion 21 can be determined as appropriate, the angle α formed by the non-engaging side portion 21 with the horizontal direction is preferably 80 ° or less. By setting the angle within this range, resistance due to contact between the non-engagement side portion 21 and the container opening end when the hinge lid 1 is closed can be reduced, and the side wall portion 20 can be preferably turned outward. The effect of preventing the container from being caught on the opening end of the container can be obtained.

尚、80°を超えると、ヒンジ蓋1が開いた状態から、開閉部11を閉め始めた際に、非係合辺部21の傾斜部21aと容器開口端が平行に近い状態で接触することとなり、抵抗が大きくなりすぎて蓋を閉めにくくなるので好ましくない。   When the angle exceeds 80 °, the inclined portion 21a of the non-engaging side portion 21 and the container opening end come into contact with each other in a state of being almost parallel when the opening / closing portion 11 starts to be closed after the hinge lid 1 is opened. This is not preferable because the resistance becomes too large and it is difficult to close the lid.

(a6)ヒンジ部2は、下面側が連結部となり上面側が直線状の凹溝部(V字状溝部)に構成されるようにした。これにより、開閉部11を開けた際に、ヒンジ部2が折れ曲がり、図9に示すように、ヒンジ部2の厚みによって丸みを帯びた折れ曲がり部が形成されるので、折れ曲がり部は鋭利な状態となることがなく、使用者の指などが折れ曲がり部に触れても痛みを感じる虞がない。また、この折れ曲がり部は直線状に形成されるので、内容物が粉体等の場合に、スプーンで内容物をすくい取り、内容物をすり切る場合のすり切り部として使用することができる。   (a6) The hinge portion 2 is configured such that the lower surface side is a connecting portion and the upper surface side is a linear concave groove portion (V-shaped groove portion). Thereby, when the opening / closing part 11 is opened, the hinge part 2 is bent, and as shown in FIG. 9, a rounded bent part is formed depending on the thickness of the hinge part 2, so that the bent part is in a sharp state. There is no possibility of feeling pain even if the user's finger or the like touches the bent portion. In addition, since the bent portion is formed in a straight line shape, when the content is powder or the like, it can be used as a scraping portion when the content is scraped off with a spoon and the content is scraped off.

(a7)天板分離部10aは、破線で示すように、天板部の板厚よりも薄い厚さの薄肉部として構成され、ヒンジ蓋1が容器開口端部に冠着されたときに、開口端部の直上に位置する領域を含むように設けることとした。このように構成することにより、ヒンジ部2から離れた側に位置する開閉部11の端部を最初に上方に持ち上げた際に、側壁部20は、容器開口端部の外周を境界として分離されるので、開閉部11を回動させたときに、係合部は容器開口端部に引っかかることなく、スムーズに開閉動作を行うことができる。開閉部11の端部を最初に持ち上げた際に、同時に側壁分離部20aも破断して係合部が形成される。図6に示すように、天板分離部10aと側壁分離部20aは、その交差する位置で接続するように設けられている為、これらが破断することにより、側壁部が天板部および固定部側の側壁部から分離して側壁部の上端までを含む係合部が形成される。図5中に破線で示したのは、開閉部11がほぼ垂直となる状態まで開いた時の係合辺部22の位置である。係合辺部22は、ヒンジ部2の薄肉部の位置よりも距離Lだけ容器内側に入り込んだ位置にあるため、開閉部11を開いた状態にすると容器開口端部に係合することとなり、開閉部11が開いた状態を維持できる。   (a7) The top plate separating portion 10a is configured as a thin portion having a thickness smaller than the thickness of the top plate portion as shown by a broken line, and when the hinge lid 1 is attached to the container opening end portion, The region is provided so as to include a region located immediately above the opening end. With this configuration, when the end portion of the opening / closing portion 11 located on the side away from the hinge portion 2 is first lifted upward, the side wall portion 20 is separated with the outer periphery of the container opening end portion as a boundary. Therefore, when the opening / closing part 11 is rotated, the engaging part can smoothly open and close without being caught by the container opening end. When the end of the opening / closing part 11 is first lifted, the side wall separating part 20a is also broken at the same time to form an engaging part. As shown in FIG. 6, since the top plate separating portion 10a and the side wall separating portion 20a are provided so as to be connected at the intersecting positions, the side wall portion becomes the top plate portion and the fixing portion when they are broken. An engagement portion that is separated from the side wall portion and includes the upper end of the side wall portion is formed. A broken line in FIG. 5 indicates the position of the engaging side portion 22 when the opening / closing portion 11 is opened to a substantially vertical state. Since the engaging side portion 22 is located at the inner side of the container by a distance L than the position of the thin portion of the hinge portion 2, when the opening / closing portion 11 is opened, the engaging side portion 22 is engaged with the container opening end portion. The state where the opening / closing part 11 is opened can be maintained.

以上、本発明を実施するための最良の形態について実施例1を用いて説明したが、本発明はこの実施例に限定されるものではなく、本発明の技術的範囲を逸脱しない範囲で種々変更が可能である。例えば、ヒンジ部2は、前記開閉部を開閉する際に、回転軸となって前記開閉部を回動可能とするヒンジとしての機能を有する限り、その構成は特に限定されず、前記天板部の上面側を連結部とし、下面側が直線状の凹溝部(断面逆V字状溝部)となるように構成してもよい。また、凹溝部を設けずに、ミシン目状の弱化部を設ける構成や、下面側に切り込みを設けるように構成したり、蝶番によりヒンジ部を構成することもできる。   The best mode for carrying out the present invention has been described above with reference to the first embodiment. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the technical scope of the present invention. Is possible. For example, the hinge unit 2 is not particularly limited in its configuration as long as it has a function as a hinge that allows the opening / closing unit to turn when the opening / closing unit is opened and closed. The upper surface side may be a connecting portion, and the lower surface side may be configured to be a linear groove portion (reverse V-shaped groove portion in cross section). In addition, a configuration in which a perforated weakened portion is provided without providing a concave groove portion, a configuration in which a cut is provided on the lower surface side, or a hinge portion can be configured by a hinge.

側壁分離部20aは、実施例1の(a2)で説明した構成の他、予め分離した状態で設けてもよい。また、実施例1では、側壁分離部20aが垂直に設けられているが、側壁部20がヒンジ部2よりも固定部12側にずれた位置で分離されるように構成される限り、その形状は特に限定されず、例えば傾斜状や段状に形成されてもよい。傾斜状に構成した場合、開いた状態で維持される開閉部11の開き角度に応じて側壁分離部20aの角度を設定することにより、係合辺部22と容器開口端部が平行に接触した状態で係合するように構成することができ、安定して蓋が開いた状態を維持することができる。   In addition to the configuration described in (a2) of the first embodiment, the side wall separation portion 20a may be provided in a separated state in advance. Further, in the first embodiment, the side wall separating portion 20a is provided vertically. However, as long as the side wall portion 20 is configured to be separated at a position shifted to the fixed portion 12 side from the hinge portion 2, the shape thereof is provided. Is not particularly limited, and may be formed in, for example, an inclined shape or a step shape. When configured to be inclined, by setting the angle of the side wall separating portion 20a according to the opening angle of the opening / closing portion 11 maintained in the open state, the engagement side portion 22 and the container opening end portion are in parallel contact with each other. It can comprise so that it may engage in a state, and can maintain the state which the lid | cover opened stably.

天板分離部10aは、実施例1の(a4)で説明した構成の他、予め天板部10と係合部を分離した状態として形成してもよい。また、側壁分離部、天板分離部は薄肉部として構成したが、ミシン目状の弱化部として形成してもよい。   The top plate separating portion 10a may be formed in a state where the top plate portion 10 and the engaging portion are separated in advance in addition to the configuration described in (a4) of the first embodiment. Moreover, although the side wall separation portion and the top plate separation portion are configured as thin portions, they may be formed as perforated weakening portions.

係合辺部22は、実施例1では上端部から垂直に所定の長さで形成されたが、必ずしも垂直に形成する必要はなく、ヒンジ部2の位置や開閉部11の開き角度等に応じて傾斜状等の適宜の形状としてもよい。   In the first embodiment, the engagement side portion 22 is formed vertically with a predetermined length from the upper end portion.
