Description

  The present invention relates to a bottle-like container composed of a container part that contains a liquid such as juice and a lid part thereof, and a can-like container that contains a liquid.

Conventionally, containers such as plastic bottles that store liquid beverages such as juices have been used only for the purpose of storing beverages and the like that are stored items, and most of the stored items are consumed and discarded.
In addition, the above container has the inconvenience that the remaining beverage cannot be confirmed in a dark concert hall or in the darkness in the outdoors. In addition, when a bottle having an unrecognized residue is left unattended, there is a problem that the residue diffuses around and stains clothes or stains the floor or ground.

As a conventional technique related to a container, a sealed container that easily attaches and removes a swing stopper is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
Moreover, the drink container with a cap with which the holding place of the opened cap was ensured is disclosed (for example, refer patent document 2).
In addition, the technique of the inspection method and apparatus of a barrel stuffed drink is disclosed (for example, refer patent document 3).

(1) Since the light emitter is attached to the lid, there is an advantage that light from the light emitter is radiated into the container of the bottle and reflected on the liquid surface of juice or the like so that the remaining amount can be easily recognized even in a dark part.
(2) If an LED is used as the illuminant, for example, a button battery or the like can be used, and an arbitrary color can be selected, so that there is an advantage that sensible reflected light can be emitted outside the container. Further, the use of the LED and the button battery has an advantage that it can be mounted in a small space and has low cost.
(3) If a fluorescent stone, a fluorescent agent, or the like is used for the luminous body, there is an advantage that it is not necessary to use a power source.
(4) If the flat plate is used as a lens to converge or diffuse the light, the direction of the reflected light can be set freely, and if a colored lens is used, it can be combined with the light emission color of the LED, and the reflected light of any color can be obtained There are benefits that can be obtained.

(5) The lid portion of the present invention has an advantage that it can be reused for another container when the contents of the container become empty.
(6) If the contents of the container are emptied, if water is added, there is an advantage that it can be used as an accessory.

(7) If the straw is detachably attached to the lid portion, there is an advantage that the direction of reflected light and the like change as the beverage or the like is sucked.
(8) If a straw with an optical fiber is attached to the lid, there is an advantage that reflected light is diffused from the upper part of the straw to add a taste to the straw, and the location of the straw can be easily recognized even in the dark.
(9) Adhering a seal having a light reflecting function to the container has the advantage of increasing the variety of reflections in addition to the change in liquid level.

(10) Providing a bowl-shaped dish part below the container and attaching a character screen or personal name with a light reflecting function to the bottom of the dish part has the advantage of becoming a unique accessory. The failure to drink juices can be prevented.
(11) If a bowl-shaped dish part is provided below the container and a light emitter is attached to the dish part, there is an advantage that the light emitted from the lower part of the container is incident and changed.

    (12) A horizontal cylindrical portion formed of a translucent material in a direction perpendicular to the axis (lateral direction) of the container, in which a harmless reflector having light reflectivity, such as gold powder, is mixed into the liquid contained in the container. If light is emitted from the illuminant during installation, the light is reflected in the reflector in the liquid even if the light travels in the direction of the cylindrical body. .

    (13) A lid-like body made of a translucent material is detachably provided on the top of the can-like container, and light is emitted from a light-emitting body on the top of the lid-like body to a flat plate coated with a fluorescent paint attached downward. In this case, even a can-shaped container made of an opaque material has an advantage that reflected light is emitted to the outside of the container through the lid.
