Description

この発明は、容器の口部をヒンジ回りに回動可能な蓋で開閉する蓋付き容器に関する。   The present invention relates to a container with a lid that opens and closes the mouth of the container with a lid that can rotate around a hinge.

この種の蓋付き容器の一例として、上面に口部を設けられた容器と、容器にヒンジを介して装着された蓋と、容器に第2ヒンジを介して装着された係止操作部材とを備えた飲料容器が挙げられる。蓋が閉止位置にある状態で係止操作部材を係止側回転させられることにより、係止操作部材の係合部が蓋の係合部を乗り越えて両係合部が掛かり合う。この掛かり合いにより、蓋の開側回転が規制されるようになっている(特許文献1参照)。   As an example of this type of container with a lid, a container having an opening on its upper surface, a lid attached to the container via a hinge, and a locking operation member attached to the container via a second hinge The drink container provided is mentioned. When the locking operation member is rotated on the locking side in a state where the lid is in the closed position, the engagement portion of the locking operation member gets over the engagement portion of the lid and the both engagement portions are engaged with each other. By this engagement, the opening side rotation of the lid is regulated (see Patent Document 1).

特開2007−217042号公報JP 2007-217042 A

特許文献1に開示された蓋付き容器のように、閉止位置にある蓋外殻の下端周縁部と容器外殻の上端とが当る状態で係止操作部材を蓋に掛けるものにおいては、係止操作部材の係合部が蓋の係合部を乗り越える間、蓋が閉側回転を生じることはできない。したがって、両係合部や係止操作部材の弾性変形に頼って乗り越えさせることになり、これに見合う操作力を係止操作部材に与える必要がある。さらに、両係合部がプラスチックや金属製のため、操作力が大きくなるほど、繰り返し使用するうちに、ひずみ蓄積や摩耗といった劣化が生じる。また、蓋外殻部品及び容器外殻部品の成形誤差の影響により操作力が設計値よりも大きくなることもある。これらの問題は、係止操作部材を蓋に装着した点で異なる蓋付き容器においても同じように生じる。   As in the case of a container with a lid disclosed in Patent Document 1, in a state where a locking operation member is hung on the lid in a state where the lower end peripheral portion of the lid outer shell in the closed position and the upper end of the container outer shell abut, While the engaging portion of the operating member gets over the engaging portion of the lid, the lid cannot cause the closed side rotation. Therefore, it depends on the elastic deformation of both engaging parts and the locking operation member, and it is necessary to give the locking operation member an operating force corresponding to this. Furthermore, since both the engaging portions are made of plastic or metal, the larger the operation force, the more the deterioration such as strain accumulation and wear occurs during repeated use. Further, the operating force may be larger than the design value due to the influence of molding errors of the lid outer shell part and the container outer shell part. These problems similarly occur in containers with different lids in that the locking operation member is mounted on the lid.

上述の事情に鑑み、この発明の課題は、蓋を閉止位置に留める係止操作部材を備える蓋付き容器において、係止操作部材の係合部に相手側の係合部を乗り越えさせるための操作力を軽減すると共に、蓋や容器の成形誤差の影響で前記の操作力が大きくなることを軽減することにある。   In view of the above-described circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide an operation for causing the engaging portion of the locking operation member to get over the mating engagement portion in the container with the locking operation member that holds the lid in the closed position. In addition to reducing the force, it is intended to reduce the increase in the operating force due to the influence of molding errors of the lid and the container.

上記課題を解決するため、この発明は、容器にヒンジを介して装着された蓋と、前記容器及び前記蓋の一方側に第2ヒンジを介して装着された係止操作部材とを備え、前記蓋が閉止位置にある状態で前記係止操作部材を係止側回転させられることにより該係止操作部材の係合部が前記容器及び前記蓋の他方側の係合部を乗り越えて両係合部が掛かり合い、該掛かり合いにより前記蓋の開側回転が規制される蓋付き容器において、前記ヒンジ回りに開放状態から閉止位置まで閉側回転させられた前記蓋と前記容器との間に介在する弾性体を備え、前記乗り越えに伴って前記蓋に与えられる閉側回転力で前記弾性体が圧縮されることにより該蓋が閉側回転させられ、該弾性体の反発に伴って該蓋が開側回転させられることにより前記両係合部が掛かり合う構成を採用した。   In order to solve the above problems, the present invention includes a lid mounted on a container via a hinge, and a locking operation member mounted on one side of the container and the lid via a second hinge, When the locking operation member is rotated on the locking side in a state where the lid is in the closed position, the engagement portion of the locking operation member gets over the engagement portion on the other side of the container and the lid. In a container with a lid in which the part is engaged and the opening-side rotation of the lid is restricted by the engagement, the container is interposed between the lid rotated around the hinge from the open state to the closed position and the container. The elastic body is compressed by the closing side rotational force applied to the lid as it gets over, and the lid is rotated by the closing side. The both engaging portions are hooked by being rotated open. Ri was the configuration adopted to suit.

この発明の構成によれば、蓋が開放状態から閉止位置まで閉側回転させられた状態で、蓋は容器に直接に支持されず、蓋と容器との間に弾性体が介在している。この状態で係止操作部材を係止側回転させると、係止操作部材の係合部が他方側の係合部を乗り越えることに伴って蓋が容器側に引き寄せられるため、蓋に閉側回転力が与えられる。その結果、蓋と容器との間に介在する弾性体が圧縮される。この圧縮により、蓋が閉止位置からさらに閉側回転させられる。係止操作部材の係合部の乗り越え度合いに応じて弾性体が次第に反発する。この反発に伴って蓋が開側回転させられることにより、両係合部が掛かり合う。このように、係止操作部材の係合部に他方側の係合部を乗り越えさせるのに両係合部の弾性変形ではなく、弾性体の圧縮を利用するため、乗り越え時の操作力を軽減することができる。ひいては、両係合部の劣化を防止することができる。また、蓋や容器の成形誤差で両係合部の掛かり代が大きくなった場合でも、弾性体の圧縮で成形誤差の影響が緩和される。このため、乗り越え時の操作力が大きくなることを軽減することができる。   According to the configuration of the present invention, the lid is not directly supported by the container in a state where the lid is rotated from the open state to the closed position, and the elastic body is interposed between the lid and the container. When the locking operation member is rotated on the locking side in this state, the lid is pulled toward the container side as the engaging portion of the locking operation member gets over the engaging portion on the other side. Power is given. As a result, the elastic body interposed between the lid and the container is compressed. By this compression, the lid is further rotated on the closed side from the closed position. The elastic body gradually repels according to the degree of overcoming of the engaging portion of the locking operation member. Along with this repulsion, the lid is rotated on the open side, whereby the engaging portions are engaged. In this way, the operation force when getting over is reduced by using the compression of the elastic body, not the elastic deformation of both engaging parts, to make the engaging part of the locking operation member get over the other engaging part. can do. As a result, deterioration of both engaging parts can be prevented. Further, even when the engagement margin between the engaging portions becomes large due to the molding error of the lid or the container, the influence of the molding error is mitigated by the compression of the elastic body. For this reason, it can reduce that the operation force at the time of getting over becomes large.

携帯式飲料容器のように、容器の確実な密封が要求され、しかも係止操作部材が掛かった状態で蓋や容器に弾性体を圧縮させるような外力が不意に与えられ得る用途の蓋付き容器においては、この発明に係る係止操作部材を予備的な係止装置として採用することができる。   Like a portable beverage container, a container with a lid that requires a reliable sealing of the container and can be applied unexpectedly with an external force that compresses the elastic body on the lid or container with the locking operation member applied. The locking operation member according to the present invention can be employed as a preliminary locking device.

例えば、前記ヒンジ回りに開放状態から閉側回転させられた前記蓋が閉止位置を過ぎると自動的に閉止位置を超える開側回転を規制する状態になり、かつ解除操作を受けて該規制を解除する開閉操作部材を備え、前記弾性体は、前記開閉操作部材の規制状態及び前記蓋を閉止位置から閉側回転させられた状態で前記容器を密封するゴムパッキンからなる構成を採用することができる。ここで、「ゴムパッキン」は、成形加工で形成されるゴム製のシール部材であって、シール面に押し付けて使用されるものをいう。   For example, when the lid rotated around the hinge from the open state to the closed side passes the closed position, it automatically enters the state where the open side rotation exceeding the closed position is restricted, and the restriction is released upon receiving a release operation. The elastic body can employ a configuration comprising a rubber packing that seals the container in a state in which the opening / closing operation member is restricted and the lid is rotated from the closed position to the closed side. . Here, the “rubber packing” is a rubber seal member formed by molding and used by being pressed against a seal surface.

開放状態から閉側回転させられる前記蓋が閉止位置を過ぎると、開閉操作部材は、自動的に閉止位置を超える蓋の開側回転を規制する。開閉操作部材で蓋が閉止位置に規制された状態でゴムパッキンが容器を密封するため、係止操作部材の掛かりが外れても密封漏れの心配はない。蓋を閉止位置から閉側回転させられた状態でもゴムパッキンが容器を密封するようにすれば、不意の外力で蓋が閉止位置から閉側回転させられても密封漏れの心配はない。したがって、ゴムパッキンを弾性体として利用することができ、弾性体としての専用部品追加が不要となる。   When the lid that is rotated from the opened state to the closed side passes the closed position, the opening / closing operation member automatically regulates the open side rotation of the lid beyond the closed position. Since the rubber packing seals the container in a state where the lid is restricted to the closing position by the opening / closing operation member, there is no fear of sealing leakage even if the latching operation member is detached. If the rubber packing seals the container even when the lid is rotated from the closed position to the closed side, there is no risk of leakage even if the lid is rotated from the closed position to the closed side by an unexpected external force. Therefore, the rubber packing can be used as an elastic body, and it is not necessary to add a dedicated component as an elastic body.

前記容器及び前記蓋の一方側と前記係止操作部材とは、前記両係合部の掛かり合い可能な回転位置からの解除側自転を規制する限りの抵抗接触部をもつことが好ましい。ここで、「自転」は、係止操作部材の自重による回転トルクで生じ得る回転のことをいう。   It is preferable that one side of the container and the lid and the locking operation member have a resistance contact portion as long as the release side rotation from the rotational position where the engagement portions can be engaged is restricted. Here, “autorotation” refers to rotation that can occur due to rotational torque due to the weight of the locking operation member.

不意の外力で両係合部の掛かり合いが外れる前後を通じて、係止操作部材が装着される一方側と、係止操作部材とは、第2ヒンジの回転軸と直交する方向の相対位置関係は変化しない。このため、容器及び蓋の一方側と係止操作部材とに抵抗接触部を設けるだけの簡単な手段により、両係合部の掛かり合い可能な回転位置からの解除側回転を規制することができる。このように解除側回転を規制すれば、上述のように不意の外力で両係合部の掛かり合いが外れても、不意の外力がなくなった後、両係合部は再び掛かり合うことができる。したがって、係止操作部材の掛かりが不意に外れることを防止することができる。蓋が開閉操作部材で閉止位置に規制されるため、両係合部の掛かり合いが外れた状態でも、係止操作部材で蓋を閉止位置に規制することはない。このため、外力による係止操作部材の解除側回転を抵抗接触部で規制する必要はなく、解除側自転を規制することが可能であれば、両係合部の再掛かり性を高めることができ、抵抗接触部から外れた適宜の回転域に係止操作部材の自転自在域を設けて係止操作部材を軽く移動させられるようにすることができる。自転防止程度であれば、抵抗接触部を通過させるための操作力は問題にならない。   The relative positional relationship between the one side on which the locking operation member is mounted and the locking operation member in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the second hinge is before and after the engagement between the engagement portions is released due to unexpected external force. It does not change. For this reason, the release-side rotation from the rotational position where the engaging portions can be engaged with each other can be regulated by a simple means that simply provides a resistance contact portion on one side of the container and the lid and the locking operation member. . By restricting the release side rotation in this way, even if the engagement between the two engaging portions is released due to an unexpected external force as described above, the two engaging portions can be engaged again after the unexpected external force disappears. . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the latching operation member from being unexpectedly detached. Since the lid is restricted to the closing position by the opening / closing operation member, the lid is not restricted to the closing position by the locking operation member even when the engagement between both the engaging portions is released. For this reason, it is not necessary to restrict the release-side rotation of the locking operation member by an external force with the resistance contact portion, and if the release-side rotation can be restricted, the re-engagement of both engaging portions can be improved. In addition, it is possible to provide a freely rotating area of the locking operation member in an appropriate rotation area outside the resistance contact portion so that the locking operation member can be moved lightly. If it is a rotation prevention grade, the operation force for letting a resistance contact part pass will not be a problem.

前記両係合部の掛かり合い可能な回転位置に前記係止操作部材が停止した状態で前記蓋を開放状態から閉側回転させられると、該係止操作部材が該蓋に押されて解除側回転させられることがより好ましい。   When the lid is rotated from the open state to the closed side while the locking operation member is stopped at the rotational position where the engagement portions can be engaged with each other, the locking operation member is pushed by the lid and released. More preferably, it is rotated.

抵抗接触部を採用すると、蓋が閉止位置になくとも、係止操作部材が単独で両係合部の掛かり合い可能な回転位置に留まることが起こり得る。この停止状態のままうっかりと蓋を開放状態から閉側回転させられることが懸念される。その停止状態の係止操作部材がその閉側回転する蓋に押されて解除側回転させられるようにすれば、係止操作部材と蓋の衝突を逃がし、これらの破損を防止することができる。   When the resistance contact portion is employed, it is possible that the locking operation member stays at the rotational position where the engagement portions can be engaged independently even if the lid is not in the closed position. There is a concern that the lid can be inadvertently rotated from the opened state to the closed side in this stopped state. If the locking operation member in the stopped state is pushed by the closing-side rotating lid to be rotated on the releasing side, the collision between the locking operation member and the lid can be released and the breakage can be prevented.

また、前記容器は、上面に口部を設けられた飲料容器からなり、前記容器及び前記蓋の一方側は該容器とされており、前記係止操作部材の解除側回転の停止位置は、前記容器の側面との接触で決まるようになっており、前記容器及び前記蓋の一方側と前記係止操作部材とは、前記停止位置からの係止側自転を規制する第2抵抗接触部をもつ構成を採用することができる。ここで、上下の概念は、蓋が閉止位置にある状態で容器を水平面に立てた状態で上下となる方向をいう。   Further, the container is composed of a beverage container having a mouth portion on the upper surface, and one side of the container and the lid is the container, and the stop position of the release side rotation of the locking operation member is The container and one side of the lid and the locking operation member have a second resistance contact portion that restricts the locking side rotation from the stop position. A configuration can be employed. Here, the concept of up and down refers to a direction that goes up and down when the container is placed on a horizontal surface with the lid in the closed position.

開閉操作部材で容器の密封が確保されるので、容器を飲料容器にすることができる。飲料容器は、上面に口部を設けられたものが一般的である。この種の容器を採用するとき、蓋を開けて容器を傾けることにより、容器内に残った飲料を口部から排出したり、口部に唇を付けて飲料を口内に流し込んだりすることがある。容器を傾けたとき、係止操作部材が傾き角に応じた係止側自転を生じると、係止操作部材が口部の方に次第に近づき、排出される飲料に触れたり、顎に触れたりすることが懸念される。係止操作部材の解除側回転の停止位置を容器の側面との接触で決まるようにすれば、係止操作部材を口部から最も離れた位置で停止させることができる。また、その停止位置からの係止側自転を規制する第2抵抗接触部を容器と係止操作部材とに設定することができる。このように規制すれば、単純な手段で容器を傾けたときに係止操作部材が勝手に垂れることを防止することができ、飲料や顎との接触を避けることができる。   Since the sealing of the container is ensured by the opening / closing member, the container can be a beverage container. A beverage container generally has a mouth provided on the upper surface. When this type of container is used, by opening the lid and tilting the container, the beverage remaining in the container may be discharged from the mouth, or the lip may be attached to the mouth and the beverage may be poured into the mouth. . When the container is tilted, if the locking operation member rotates on the locking side according to the inclination angle, the locking operation member gradually approaches the mouth, touching the beverage to be discharged, or touching the chin. There is concern. If the stop position of the release side rotation of the locking operation member is determined by contact with the side surface of the container, the locking operation member can be stopped at the position farthest from the mouth. Moreover, the 2nd resistance contact part which controls the latching side rotation from the stop position can be set to a container and a latching operation member. By regulating in this way, it is possible to prevent the locking operation member from drooping when the container is tilted by simple means, and contact with the beverage or chin can be avoided.

また、前記容器は、前記第2ヒンジの回転軸を内部に挿通された軸支持部を設けられており、前記軸支持部の外面のうち前記挿通された回転軸と直交する線上の部分に、前記係止操作部材の対向端の通過抵抗を生じるように膨らんだ前記一方側の第2抵抗接触部と、前記停止位置を越える仮想の解除側回転域を考えたとき該係止操作部材の対向端が接近する関係の支持壁面とを形成されており、前記係止操作部材の回転先端側が回転軸側よりも先に前記容器の側面と接触するようになっている構成を採用することができる。   Further, the container is provided with a shaft support portion that is inserted through the rotation shaft of the second hinge, and a portion of the outer surface of the shaft support portion on a line that is orthogonal to the inserted rotation shaft. Considering the second resistance contact portion on the one side that is swollen so as to generate a passage resistance at the opposite end of the locking operation member, and the virtual release side rotation region that exceeds the stop position, the opposite of the locking operation member It is possible to adopt a configuration in which a support wall surface that is close to the end is formed, and the rotation tip side of the locking operation member comes into contact with the side surface of the container before the rotation shaft side. .

第2ヒンジとして、その回転軸を容器に設けられた軸支持部の内部に挿通し、その回転軸を介して容器と係止操作部材とを連結する構造を採用することができる。このような構造においては、前記軸支持部の外面のうち前記挿通された回転軸と直交する線上の部分に、前記係止操作部材の対向端の通過抵抗を生じるように膨らんだ前記一方側の第2抵抗接触部を形成することができる。係止操作部材の対向端に一方側の第2抵抗接触部を通過させるため、前記線上の部分には、停止位置を越える仮想の解除側回転域を考えたとき該係止操作部材の対向端と向き合う位置に支持壁面を形成することになる。軸支持部を容器に設ける都合上、係る支持壁面を、停止位置を越える仮想の解除側回転域を考えたとき係止操作部材の対向端が接近する関係に設けたい場合がある。この場合、係止操作部材の回転軸側が回転先端側よりも先に容器の側面と接触するよりも、係止操作部材の回転先端側が回転軸側よりも先に容器の側面と接触するように設けることが好ましい。   As the second hinge, it is possible to employ a structure in which the rotation shaft is inserted into the shaft support portion provided in the container and the container and the locking operation member are connected via the rotation shaft. In such a structure, a portion of the outer side surface of the shaft support portion on the line perpendicular to the inserted rotation shaft is swelled so as to generate a passage resistance of the opposite end of the locking operation member. A second resistance contact portion can be formed. In order to allow the second resistance contact portion on one side to pass through the opposite end of the locking operation member, the opposite end of the locking operation member is considered in the portion on the line when a virtual release side rotation region exceeding the stop position is considered. A support wall surface is formed at a position facing the. For the convenience of providing the shaft support portion in the container, there are cases where it is desired to provide such a support wall surface in such a relationship that the opposing ends of the locking operation member approach when considering a virtual release side rotation region that exceeds the stop position. In this case, the rotation front end side of the locking operation member contacts the side surface of the container before the rotation shaft side, rather than the rotation shaft side of the locking operation member contacts the side surface of the container before the rotation front end side. It is preferable to provide it.

すなわち、通常、係止操作部材を外すのは、蓋を開放するときであり、上面に口部を設けられた飲料容器を立てた状態で行うことが多々ある。このように容器を立てた状態で係止操作部材が容器に接触して停止位置にあるとき、不意に係止操作部材の回転先端側に物をぶつけたり、手が滑って押されたりすることが起こり得る。このとき、係止操作部材の回転先端側に解除側回転トルクが与えられるので、係止操作部材の回転軸側と容器の側面との接触部で停止位置を決めると、そこが支点となり、係止操作部材の対向端が作用点となって支持壁面に押し付けられ、破損を招く恐れがある。係る支持壁面と係止操作部材の対向端との間に余裕間隔を設けると、前記の押し付けを避けることができる。この余裕間隔を大きく設定する程、両係合部が掛かり合う状態で係止操作部材の対向端と容器との間の対向間隔が大きく生じることになる。この対向間隔は、係止操作部材を外すときに注目される位置に設定するため、意匠性上、可及的に小さくするよう、求められることがある。このように対向間隔基準で設計するとき、余裕間隔を十分に確保することができず、上述の押し付けが懸念される。係止操作部材の回転先端側が回転軸側よりも先に容器の側面と接触するようにすれば、停止位置で係止操作部材の回転先端側が不意に押されても、その回転先端側と容器との接触部が支点になるため、係止操作部材の対向端が軸支持部の支持壁面に押し付けられ難くなる。   That is, usually, the locking operation member is removed when the lid is opened, and is often performed in a state where a beverage container having a mouth portion provided on the upper surface is erected. When the locking operation member comes into contact with the container and is in the stop position with the container standing in this way, an object may be unexpectedly hit against the rotation tip side of the locking operation member or the hand may be slid and pushed. Can happen. At this time, since the release-side rotational torque is applied to the rotation front end side of the locking operation member, when the stop position is determined at the contact portion between the rotation shaft side of the locking operation member and the side surface of the container, this becomes a fulcrum. The opposing end of the stop operating member acts as an action point and is pressed against the support wall surface, which may cause damage. If a margin is provided between the supporting wall surface and the opposing end of the locking operation member, the pressing can be avoided. The larger the margin interval is set, the larger the facing interval between the facing end of the locking operation member and the container in a state where the both engaging portions are engaged with each other. Since the facing distance is set at a position that is noticed when the locking operation member is removed, it may be required to be as small as possible in terms of design. Thus, when designing on the basis of the facing interval, a sufficient margin cannot be ensured, and there is a concern about the above-mentioned pressing. If the rotation tip side of the locking operation member comes into contact with the side surface of the container earlier than the rotation shaft side, even if the rotation tip side of the locking operation member is unexpectedly pushed at the stop position, the rotation tip side and the container Therefore, the opposing end of the locking operation member is hardly pressed against the support wall surface of the shaft support portion.

なお、第2抵抗接触部に関する構成要件は、この発明に限らず、容器にヒンジを介して装着された蓋と、容器に第2ヒンジを介して装着された係止操作部材とを備え、容器は、上面に口部を設けられた飲料容器からなり、蓋が閉止位置にある状態で係止操作部材を係止側回転させられることにより該係止操作部材の係合部が前記他方側の係合部を乗り越えて両係合部が掛かり合い、該掛かり合いにより蓋の開側回転が規制されるようになっており、係止操作部材の解除側回転の停止位置が容器の側面との接触で決まる蓋付き容器に適用することができる。   In addition, the structural requirements regarding the second resistance contact portion are not limited to this invention, and include a lid mounted on the container via a hinge, and a locking operation member mounted on the container via the second hinge, and the container Comprises a beverage container having a mouth on the upper surface, and the engaging operation member is rotated on the engaging side while the lid is in the closed position so that the engaging portion of the engaging operation member is on the other side. Both engagement parts are engaged with each other over the engagement part, and the opening side rotation of the lid is restricted by the engagement, and the stop position of the release side rotation of the locking operation member is in contact with the side surface of the container. It can be applied to containers with lids determined by contact.

上述のように、この発明は、上述の構成の採用により、蓋を閉止位置に留める係止操作部材を備える蓋付き容器において、係止操作部材の係合部に相手側の係合部を乗り越えさせるための操作力を軽減すると共に、蓋や容器の成形誤差の影響で前記の操作力が大きくなることを軽減することができる。   As described above, according to the present invention, in the container with a lid that includes the locking operation member that holds the lid in the closed position, the engagement portion of the locking operation member gets over the mating engagement portion by adopting the above-described configuration. It is possible to reduce the operation force for causing the operation force to increase, and to reduce the increase in the operation force due to the influence of molding errors of the lid and the container.

以下、この発明の実施形態を添付図面に基いて説明する。
実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、図1、図2に示すように、容器1にヒンジ2を介して装着された蓋3と、容器1及び蓋3の一方側とされた容器1に第2ヒンジ4を介して装着された係止操作部材5と、ヒンジ2回りに開放状態から閉止位置まで閉側回転させられた蓋3と容器1との間に介在する弾性体6と、ヒンジ2回りに開放状態から閉側回転させられた蓋3が閉止位置を過ぎると自動的に閉止位置を超える開側回転を規制する状態になり、かつ解除操作を受けて該規制を解除する開閉操作部材7とを備えている。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A locking operation member 5 mounted via a hinge 4, an elastic body 6 interposed between the lid 3 rotated around the hinge 2 from the open state to the closed position and the container 1, and the hinge 2 When the lid 3 rotated from the opened state to the closed side passes the closed position, the open / close operation member 7 automatically enters the state of restricting the open side rotation beyond the closed position and releases the restriction upon receiving the release operation. And.

容器1は、上面に口部11を設けられた飲料容器からなる。容器1は、飲料を収容する断熱容器12と、断熱容器12の外周に装着される肩カバー部材13と、断熱容器12の栓体14とを有する携帯式のものとされている。口部11は、栓体14に形成され、肩カバー部材13から上方に突き出た筒状の飲み口になっている。断熱容器12は、真空二重断熱構造をもち、水平面上に立てられるようになっている。   The container 1 is composed of a beverage container having a mouth portion 11 on the upper surface. The container 1 is a portable type having a heat insulating container 12 for containing a beverage, a shoulder cover member 13 attached to the outer periphery of the heat insulating container 12, and a plug 14 of the heat insulating container 12. The mouth portion 11 is formed in the plug 14 and is a cylindrical drinking mouth protruding upward from the shoulder cover member 13. The heat insulating container 12 has a vacuum double heat insulating structure, and can stand on a horizontal plane.

肩カバー部材13は、合成樹脂の射出成形品になっている。肩カバー部材13の一端に、ヒンジ2の水平回転軸21を内部に挿通された軸受部22を設けられている。肩カバー部材13の他端に、水平回転軸21と平行な第2ヒンジ4の水平回転軸41を内部に挿通された軸支持部42を設けられている。   The shoulder cover member 13 is a synthetic resin injection-molded product. One end of the shoulder cover member 13 is provided with a bearing portion 22 inserted through the horizontal rotation shaft 21 of the hinge 2. The other end of the shoulder cover member 13 is provided with a shaft support portion 42 inserted through the horizontal rotation shaft 41 of the second hinge 4 parallel to the horizontal rotation shaft 21.

蓋3は、口部11を覆うカップ状とされ、水平回転軸21を介して肩カバー部材13に装着されている。蓋3は、合成樹脂の射出成形品になっている。蓋3は、口部11の上方から退避した開放状態と、口部11を覆う閉止位置との間を回動可能になっている。蓋3と肩カバー部材13との間に、蓋3の閉側回転により蓋3を開放状態まで開側回転させる反発力を蓄積するようにトーションばね23を組み込まれている。   The lid 3 has a cup shape that covers the mouth portion 11, and is attached to the shoulder cover member 13 via the horizontal rotation shaft 21. The lid 3 is an injection molded product of synthetic resin. The lid 3 is rotatable between an open state retracted from above the mouth portion 11 and a closed position covering the mouth portion 11. A torsion spring 23 is incorporated between the lid 3 and the shoulder cover member 13 so as to accumulate a repulsive force that causes the lid 3 to rotate to the open state by the closed side rotation of the lid 3.

図3に示すように、開閉操作部材7は、肩カバー部材13の他端に、水平回転軸21と平行な揺動軸71回りに規制位置(図中に実線で示す)と、規制解除位置(図中に二点鎖線で示す)との間を揺動可能になっている。開閉操作部材7が規制位置にある状態で蓋3がヒンジ2回りに開放状態から閉側回転させられると、蓋3の下面に突き出たフック部31が開閉操作部材7の上端側に形成されたカム面72を押し、開閉操作部材7の下端側と肩カバー部材13との間に組み込まれた復帰ばね73が圧縮され、図中に二点鎖線で示すように、開閉操作部材7が規制解除位置に退避させられる。フック部31がカム面72を通過すると、復帰ばね73の反発により、開閉操作部材7が規制位置に戻され、フック部31がトーションばね23に抗して開閉操作部材7のフック部74に上方から押さえられる。これにより、図中に実線で示すように、開閉操作部材7は、蓋3の閉止位置を超える開側回転を規制する状態になる。この状態で開閉操作部材7の下端側を復帰ばね73に抗して押し込む解除操作を受けると、フック部74がフック部31から外れ、蓋3が自動開放する。   As shown in FIG. 3, the opening / closing operation member 7 is provided at the other end of the shoulder cover member 13 with a restricting position (shown by a solid line in the drawing) around a swing shaft 71 parallel to the horizontal rotation shaft 21 and a restricting release position. (Indicated by a two-dot chain line in the figure). When the lid 3 is rotated from the open state to the closed side around the hinge 2 with the opening / closing operation member 7 in the restricted position, a hook portion 31 protruding from the lower surface of the lid 3 is formed on the upper end side of the opening / closing operation member 7. The cam surface 72 is pushed, the return spring 73 incorporated between the lower end side of the opening / closing operation member 7 and the shoulder cover member 13 is compressed, and the opening / closing operation member 7 is released from the regulation as shown by a two-dot chain line in the figure. Retracted to position. When the hook portion 31 passes through the cam surface 72, the opening / closing operation member 7 is returned to the restricting position by the repulsion of the return spring 73, and the hook portion 31 moves upward to the hook portion 74 of the opening / closing operation member 7 against the torsion spring 23. It is pressed from. Thereby, as shown by a solid line in the figure, the opening / closing operation member 7 is in a state of restricting the opening side rotation beyond the closing position of the lid 3. In this state, when a release operation for pushing the lower end side of the opening / closing operation member 7 against the return spring 73 is received, the hook portion 74 is detached from the hook portion 31 and the lid 3 is automatically opened.

図4に示すように、弾性体6は、蓋3の下面に装着されたゴムパッキンからなる。弾性体6は、蓋3の下面に突き出た軸部に嵌める摘み部61と、蓋3の閉側回転により口部11を形成する筒状突壁に上から押し付けられるシール部62とを有している。その結果、図中に実線で示すように、開閉操作部材7の規制状態で、容器1と蓋3との間に介在し、口部11を密封する。この密封状態で、蓋3は容器1に対して弾性体6のみで他端側を支持されており、蓋3と容器1との間に蓋3の閉側回転空間が残っている。閉側回転空間が残り、蓋3と容器1との間に弾性体6が介在する状態のため、蓋3を閉止位置からさらに閉側回転させることができる。図中に二点鎖線で示すように、蓋3を閉止位置から閉側回転空間をさらに閉側回転させられた状態になると、弾性体6のシール部62は、撓みを増して口部11を形成する筒状突壁との密封を維持するようになっている。弾性体6は、容器1の上面に設けることもでき、ゴムパッキンに代えて、ゴム弾性をもった弾性部材にすることもできる。開閉操作部材7及びトーションばね23を省略する場合、弾性体6の介在で閉側回転させられる蓋3を容器1に対して閉止位置に一時停止させられるようにすればよい。   As shown in FIG. 4, the elastic body 6 includes a rubber packing attached to the lower surface of the lid 3. The elastic body 6 has a knob portion 61 that fits into a shaft portion protruding from the lower surface of the lid 3, and a seal portion 62 that is pressed from above onto the cylindrical protruding wall that forms the mouth portion 11 by the closed side rotation of the lid 3. ing. As a result, as shown by a solid line in the drawing, the opening / closing operation member 7 is interposed between the container 1 and the lid 3 in a restricted state, and the mouth portion 11 is sealed. In this sealed state, the lid 3 is supported on the other end side only by the elastic body 6 with respect to the container 1, and a closed side rotation space of the lid 3 remains between the lid 3 and the container 1. Since the closed side rotation space remains and the elastic body 6 is interposed between the lid 3 and the container 1, the lid 3 can be further rotated on the closed side from the closed position. As shown by a two-dot chain line in the figure, when the lid 3 is further rotated from the closed position to the closed side rotation space, the seal portion 62 of the elastic body 6 increases its bending and opens the mouth portion 11. The sealing with the cylindrical protruding wall to be formed is maintained. The elastic body 6 can also be provided on the upper surface of the container 1 and can be an elastic member having rubber elasticity instead of the rubber packing. When the opening / closing operation member 7 and the torsion spring 23 are omitted, the lid 3 that is rotated on the closed side by the interposition of the elastic body 6 may be temporarily stopped at the closed position with respect to the container 1.

係止操作部材5は、容器1の側面に接触する解除側回転の停止位置と、蓋3が閉止位置にある状態で容器1及び蓋3の他方側とされた蓋3の係合部32と掛かり合い可能な回転位置との間を回動可能になっている。蓋3が閉止位置にある状態で係止操作部材5を係止側回転させられることにより、係止操作部材5の係合部51が蓋3の係合部32を乗り越えて両係合部51、32が掛かり合う。この掛かり合いにより、開閉操作部材7の規制が仮に消失したとしても、蓋3の開側回転が規制されるようになっている。   The locking operation member 5 includes a release-side rotation stop position that contacts the side surface of the container 1, and the engagement portion 32 of the lid 3 that is the other side of the container 1 and the lid 3 in a state where the lid 3 is in the closed position. It can be rotated between rotational positions that can be engaged with each other. When the locking operation member 5 is rotated on the locking side while the lid 3 is in the closed position, the engaging portion 51 of the locking operation member 5 gets over the engaging portion 32 of the lid 3 and both the engaging portions 51 are engaged. 32. Even if the restriction of the opening / closing operation member 7 disappears due to this engagement, the opening side rotation of the lid 3 is restricted.

より具体的には、係止操作部材5の係合部51の頂が蓋3の係合部32の頂を通過するまでの乗り越え前期は、乗り越えに伴って蓋3に与えられる閉側回転力で弾性体6が圧縮されることにより蓋3が閉止位置からさらに閉側回転させられる。係合部51の頂が係合部32の頂を通過してから係合部32を完全に通過するまでの乗り越え後期は、弾性体6の反発に伴って蓋3が開側回転させられることにより両係合部51、32が掛かり合う。両係合部51、32の掛かり合いは、弾性体6の介在により維持される。   More specifically, in the first period of overcoming until the top of the engaging portion 51 of the locking operation member 5 passes the top of the engaging portion 32 of the lid 3, the closing side rotational force applied to the lid 3 as it gets over Thus, the elastic body 6 is compressed, whereby the lid 3 is further rotated from the closed position to the closed side. The lid 3 is rotated to the open side in response to the repulsion of the elastic body 6 in the late stage when the top of the engaging portion 51 passes through the top of the engaging portion 32 and completely passes through the engaging portion 32. Thus, the engaging portions 51 and 32 are engaged with each other. Engagement between the engaging portions 51 and 32 is maintained by the interposition of the elastic body 6.

上述のように係止操作部材5を掛けた状態で、係止操作部材5は、開閉操作部材7を覆うようになっている。このため、開閉操作部材7の解除操作ができず、誤操作が防止される。なお、係止操作部材5は、予備的蓋係止のみを目的とするならば、図5に示すように、適宜の環状体にすることもできる。   The locking operation member 5 covers the opening / closing operation member 7 in a state where the locking operation member 5 is applied as described above. Therefore, the opening / closing operation member 7 cannot be released, and erroneous operation is prevented. Note that the locking operation member 5 may be an appropriate annular body as shown in FIG. 5 if only the preliminary lid locking is intended.

図4に示すように、容器1と係止操作部材5とは、両係合部51、32の掛かり合い可能な回転位置からの係止操作部材5の解除側自転を規制する抵抗接触部15、52をもつ。容器1の抵抗接触部15は、軸支持部42の外面のうち前記挿通された回転軸41と直交する線上の部分に膨らんでいる。係止操作部材5の抵抗接触部は、軸支持部42と回転軸41と直交する方向に向き合う対向端52からなる。係止操作部材5の対向端52が抵抗接触部15を乗り越えると、係止操作部材5が前記回転位置に至る。閉止位置にある蓋3と容器1との間に設けられた閉側回転空間は、両係合部51、32の掛かり合うまでの間、弾性体6の圧縮を可能にする。このため、開閉操作部材7及び係止操作部材5で蓋3が閉止位置に規制されている状態でも、蓋3や容器1が不意に外力を受けて弾性体6が圧縮させられると、両係合部51、32の掛かり合いが外れ得る。両係合部51、32の掛かり合いが外れ、係止操作部材5が解除側自転を生じようとしても、対向端52が抵抗接触部15を乗り越えることができない。このため、前記回転位置に係止操作部材5が維持される。不意の外力がなくなり、弾性体6が反発すれば、両係合部51、32は再び掛かり合うことができる。   As shown in FIG. 4, the container 1 and the locking operation member 5 are a resistance contact portion 15 that regulates the release side rotation of the locking operation member 5 from the rotational position where the engagement portions 51 and 32 can be engaged with each other. , 52. The resistance contact portion 15 of the container 1 swells on a portion of the outer surface of the shaft support portion 42 on a line orthogonal to the inserted rotation shaft 41. The resistance contact portion of the locking operation member 5 includes an opposing end 52 that faces in a direction orthogonal to the shaft support portion 42 and the rotation shaft 41. When the opposing end 52 of the locking operation member 5 gets over the resistance contact portion 15, the locking operation member 5 reaches the rotational position. The closed side rotation space provided between the lid 3 and the container 1 in the closed position enables the elastic body 6 to be compressed until the engaging portions 51 and 32 are engaged with each other. For this reason, even if the lid 3 and the container 1 are unexpectedly subjected to external force and the elastic body 6 is compressed even when the lid 3 is restricted to the closed position by the opening / closing operation member 7 and the locking operation member 5, The engagement between the joint portions 51 and 32 can be removed. Even if the engagement portions 51 and 32 are disengaged from each other and the locking operation member 5 tries to cause the release side rotation, the opposed end 52 cannot get over the resistance contact portion 15. For this reason, the locking operation member 5 is maintained at the rotational position. If the unexpected external force disappears and the elastic body 6 repels, the engaging portions 51 and 32 can be engaged again.

図6(a)に示すように、両係合部51、32の掛かり合い可能な回転位置(図中に二点鎖線で示す)に係止操作部材5が停止した状態で蓋3を開放状態から閉側回転させられると、図中に実線で示すように、係止操作部材5の上端が蓋3のフック部31の下端に形成されたテーパ面33に押される。これにより、係止操作部材5が解除側回転させられ、図6(b)に示すように、係止操作部材5が前記掛かり合い可能な回転位置から退避させられる。   As shown in FIG. 6 (a), the lid 3 is opened with the locking operation member 5 stopped at the rotational position (indicated by a two-dot chain line in the figure) where the engaging portions 51 and 32 can be engaged with each other. , The upper end of the locking operation member 5 is pushed by the tapered surface 33 formed at the lower end of the hook portion 31 of the lid 3 as shown by the solid line in the figure. Thereby, the latching operation member 5 is rotated on the release side, and the latching operation member 5 is retracted from the engaging position as shown in FIG. 6B.

図1中に二点鎖線で示すように、係止操作部材5の解除側回転の停止位置は、容器1の側面との接触で決まるようになっている。容器1と係止操作部材5とは、前記停止位置からの係止側自転を規制する第2抵抗接触部16、52をもつ。容器1の第2抵抗接触部16は、軸支持部42の外面のうち前記挿通された回転軸41と直交する線上の部分に膨らんでいる。係止操作部材5の第2抵抗接触部は、前記の対向端52からなる。係止操作部材5の対向端52が第2抵抗接触部16を乗り越えると、係止操作部材5が停止位置に至る。口部11に唇を付けて容器1を傾けると、断熱容器12から栓体14内を通って口部11から飲料が排出される。飲料残量が少なくなると、容器1の傾きが大きくなる。係止操作部材5が係止側自転を生じようとしても、対向端52が第2抵抗接触部16を乗り越えることができない。このため、前記停止位置に係止操作部材5が維持される。   As indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 1, the stop position of the release side rotation of the locking operation member 5 is determined by contact with the side surface of the container 1. The container 1 and the locking operation member 5 have second resistance contact portions 16 and 52 that restrict locking-side rotation from the stop position. The second resistance contact portion 16 of the container 1 swells on a portion of the outer surface of the shaft support portion 42 on a line orthogonal to the inserted rotation shaft 41. The second resistance contact portion of the locking operation member 5 includes the opposed end 52. When the opposing end 52 of the locking operation member 5 gets over the second resistance contact portion 16, the locking operation member 5 reaches the stop position. When the lip is attached to the mouth 11 and the container 1 is tilted, the beverage is discharged from the mouth 11 through the plug 14 from the heat insulating container 12. When the remaining amount of beverage decreases, the inclination of the container 1 increases. Even if the locking operation member 5 tries to cause the locking side rotation, the opposing end 52 cannot get over the second resistance contact portion 16. For this reason, the locking operation member 5 is maintained at the stop position.

係止操作部材5の対向端52は、図7中に一点鎖線で回転軌跡円を示すように、抵抗接触部15と第2抵抗接触部16との間の円筒面に従った部分で非接触の関係になっている。この間の回転範囲で不必要な操作力の増大を避けるためであり、その結果、係止側自転及び解除側自転が自在となっている。軸支持部42の外面のうち回転軸41と直交する線上の部分に、係止操作部材5の停止位置を越える仮想の解除側回転域を考えたとき対向端52が接近する関係の支持壁面43を形成されている。これは、軸支持部42の前記栓上の部分を抵抗接触部15、第2抵抗接触部16を除いて円筒面を基本形状とする意匠を採用するに当り、その円筒面の軸線と、回転軸41とが上記の関係を生じる偏心関係にしたためである。   The opposing end 52 of the locking operation member 5 is non-contact at a portion according to the cylindrical surface between the resistance contact portion 15 and the second resistance contact portion 16 as shown by a one-dot chain line in FIG. It has become a relationship. This is to avoid an unnecessary increase in operating force in the rotation range during this period, and as a result, the locking side rotation and the release side rotation are free. A support wall surface 43 in which the opposing end 52 approaches the portion on the line orthogonal to the rotation shaft 41 of the outer surface of the shaft support portion 42 when the virtual release side rotation region exceeding the stop position of the locking operation member 5 is considered. Is formed. In adopting a design in which the portion of the shaft support portion 42 on the stopper except for the resistance contact portion 15 and the second resistance contact portion 16 has a cylindrical surface as a basic shape, the axis of the cylinder surface and the rotation This is because the shaft 41 has an eccentric relationship that produces the above relationship.

係止操作部材5の回転先端側は、図1に示すように、係止側回転の前側となる面が回転軸41側よりも膨出している。このため、係止操作部材5の回転先端側は、図中に二点鎖線で示すように、回転軸41側よりも先に容器1の側面と接触する。ここで、係止操作部材5の回転先端側とは、回転軸41の回転中心Cと係止操作部材5の回転先端P1とを結ぶ直線を考えたとき、この直線と2等分点で直交する平面を境として回転先端P1側の部分をいう。停止位置で係止操作部材5の回転先端側が不意に押されても、その回転先端側と容器1との接触部Pが支点になるため、係止操作部材5の対向端52が軸支持部42の支持壁面43に押し付けられ難くなる。   As shown in FIG. 1, the front surface of the rotation side of the locking operation member 5 bulges more than the rotation shaft 41 side. For this reason, the rotation front end side of the locking operation member 5 comes into contact with the side surface of the container 1 before the rotation shaft 41 side, as indicated by a two-dot chain line in the drawing. Here, when considering the straight line connecting the rotation center C of the rotation shaft 41 and the rotation front end P1 of the locking operation member 5, the rotation front end side of the locking operation member 5 is orthogonal to the straight line at a bisection point. This is the portion on the rotating tip P1 side with respect to the flat surface. Even if the rotation front end side of the locking operation member 5 is unexpectedly pushed at the stop position, the contact portion P between the rotation front end side and the container 1 serves as a fulcrum, so that the opposite end 52 of the locking operation member 5 is the shaft support portion. It becomes difficult to be pressed against the support wall surface 43 of 42.

実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、上述のようなものであり、係止操作部材5の係合部51に蓋3の係合部32を乗り越えさせるのに両係合部51、32の弾性変形ではなく、弾性体6の圧縮を利用するため、係止操作部材5を掛けるときも外すときも、乗り越え時の操作力を軽減することができる。ひいては、両係合部51、32の劣化を防止することができる。また、蓋3や容器1の成形誤差で両係合部51、31の掛かり代が大きくなった場合でも、弾性体6の圧縮で成形誤差の影響が緩和される。このため、乗り越え時の操作力が大きくなることを軽減することができる。なお、係止操作部材を装着する一方側を蓋にする場合、第2ヒンジを蓋側に設け、蓋の閉止位置で容器の係合部に係止操作部材の係合部を乗り越えさせる間に弾性体が圧縮されるようにすれば、同じように操作力を軽減することができる。   The container with a lid according to the embodiment is as described above, and elastic deformation of both the engaging portions 51 and 32 is required to make the engaging portion 51 of the locking operation member 5 get over the engaging portion 32 of the lid 3. Instead, since the compression of the elastic body 6 is used, it is possible to reduce the operating force when getting over the vehicle even when the locking operation member 5 is applied or removed. As a result, deterioration of both the engaging parts 51 and 32 can be prevented. Further, even when the engagement margin between the engaging portions 51 and 31 is increased due to the molding error of the lid 3 or the container 1, the compression of the elastic body 6 reduces the influence of the molding error. For this reason, it can reduce that the operation force at the time of getting over becomes large. When one side on which the locking operation member is mounted is used as a lid, a second hinge is provided on the lid side while the engagement portion of the locking operation member is passed over the engagement portion of the container at the lid closing position. If the elastic body is compressed, the operating force can be similarly reduced.

また、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、開閉操作部材7で蓋3が閉止位置に規制された状態でゴムパッキンからなる弾性体6が容器を密封するため、係止操作部材5の掛かりが外れても密封漏れの心配はない。蓋3を閉止位置から閉側回転させられた状態でも弾性体6が容器1を密封するため、不意の外力で蓋3が閉止位置から閉側回転させられても密封漏れの心配はない。ゴムパッキンを弾性体6として利用したため、弾性体としての専用部品追加がない。   Further, in the container with a lid according to the embodiment, since the elastic body 6 made of rubber packing seals the container in a state where the lid 3 is restricted to the closed position by the opening / closing operation member 7, the latching operation member 5 is released. But there is no worry about leaks. Since the elastic body 6 seals the container 1 even when the lid 3 is rotated from the closed position to the closed side, there is no fear of sealing leakage even if the lid 3 is rotated from the closed position by the unexpected external force. Since the rubber packing is used as the elastic body 6, there is no addition of a dedicated part as an elastic body.

また、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、蓋3と係止操作部材5とに抵抗接触部15、52を設けるだけの簡単な手段により両係合部51、32の掛かり合い可能な回転位置からの解除側回転が規制されるため、不意の外力で両係合部の掛かり合いが外れても、不意の外力がなくなった後、両係合部51、32は再び掛かり合うことができる。したがって、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、両係合部51、32の再掛かり性を高め、係止操作部材5の掛かりが不意に外れることを防止することができる。   In addition, the container with a lid according to the embodiment is from a rotational position where both the engaging portions 51 and 32 can be engaged with each other by simple means by simply providing the resistance contact portions 15 and 52 on the lid 3 and the locking operation member 5. Since the release-side rotation is restricted, even if the engagement between the two engaging portions is released due to an unexpected external force, the two engaging portions 51 and 32 can be engaged again after the unexpected external force disappears. Therefore, the container with a lid according to the embodiment can improve the re-engagement of both the engaging portions 51 and 32 and can prevent the engagement of the locking operation member 5 from being unexpectedly released.

また、係止操作部材5が両係合部51、32の掛かり合い可能な回転位置に停止した状態のまま蓋3を開放状態から閉側回転させられても、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、その閉側回転する蓋3のフック部31に押されて係止操作部材5を解除側回転させられるため、係止操作部材5と蓋3の衝突を逃がし、これらの破損を防止することができる。   Further, even if the lid 3 is rotated from the open state to the closed side while the locking operation member 5 is stopped at the rotational position where the engaging portions 51 and 32 can engage with each other, the lidded container according to the embodiment is Since the latching operation member 5 is pushed by the hook portion 31 of the lid 3 that rotates on the closing side and the latching operation member 5 is rotated on the release side, the collision between the latching operation member 5 and the lid 3 can be released and the damage can be prevented. it can.

また、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、係止操作部材5の解除側回転の停止位置を容器1の側面との接触で決まるようにしたため、係止操作部材5を口部11から最も離れた位置で停止させることができる。また、係止操作部材5の停止位置からの係止側自転は、第2抵抗接触部16、52で規制されるので、容器1を空になるまで傾けても、飲料や顎と係止操作部材5との接触を避けることができる。   Further, in the container with a lid according to the embodiment, the stop position of the release side rotation of the locking operation member 5 is determined by contact with the side surface of the container 1, so that the locking operation member 5 is farthest from the mouth portion 11. Can be stopped in position. In addition, the locking-side rotation of the locking operation member 5 from the stop position is restricted by the second resistance contact portions 16 and 52, so that even if the container 1 is tilted until it is empty, the locking operation with the beverage or the chin is performed. Contact with the member 5 can be avoided.

また、実施形態に係る蓋付き容器は、係止操作部材5の回転先端側が停止位置で不意に押されても、その回転先端側と容器1との接触部Pが支点になり、係止操作部材5の対向端52が軸支持部42の支持壁面43に押し付けられ難いため、対向端52付近の破損を防止することができる。   Moreover, even if the rotation front end side of the locking operation member 5 is unexpectedly pushed at the stop position, the contact portion P between the rotation front end side and the container 1 serves as a fulcrum for the lidded container according to the embodiment. Since the opposing end 52 of the member 5 is difficult to be pressed against the support wall surface 43 of the shaft support portion 42, damage near the opposing end 52 can be prevented.
