Description

本発明は、詰め替え容器に関する。   The present invention relates to a refill container.

近年では、容器体内の内容物を使い切った後に、この容器体内に詰め替え容器から内容物を移し替え、容器体を廃棄せずに引き続き使用する需要者が増えている。従来から、この詰め替え時に、内容物が容器体の外側にこぼれ落ちたり、内容物が空気と接触することで例えば内容物の香りが逸散したり、或いは内容物が吸湿したりする等の問題が指摘されていた。
このような問題を解決するための手段として、例えば下記特許文献１に示されるように、詰め替え容器を、気密性を有する袋体とすることで、内容物の詰め替えに際し、内容物を詰め替え容器である袋体ごと容器体内に収納することが提案されている。
特開２００６−１８８２６６号公報 In recent years, after the contents in the container have been used up, there is an increasing demand for transferring the contents from the refill container into the container and continuing to use the container without discarding it. Conventionally, at the time of this refilling, the contents spill out to the outside of the container body, the contents come into contact with the air, for example, the scent of the contents dissipates, or the contents absorb moisture. It was pointed out.
As a means for solving such a problem, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1 below, the refill container is an airtight bag, so that the contents can be refilled with the refill container when the contents are refilled. It has been proposed to store a certain bag in the container.
JP 2006-188266 A

しかしながら、容器体内に内容物を袋体ごと収納する手段では、以下に示す問題があった。例えば、容器体を傾けて容器体から内容物を取り出す際、容器体から取り出される内容物の量が、容器体の傾きだけではなく容器体内に収納された袋体の形状に依存するので、内容物を適量取り出すことが難しいという問題があった。また、容器体が例えばガラスや熱可塑性合成樹脂等によって透明に形成されている場合、容器体の外側から袋体が透けて見えることで見栄えが悪くなり、しかも容器体が透明であっても内容物が袋体に収容されているので内容物の残量を確認することが困難であるという問題もあった。   However, the means for storing the contents together with the bag in the container has the following problems. For example, when the container body is tilted and the contents are removed from the container body, the amount of the contents removed from the container body depends on not only the inclination of the container body but also the shape of the bag body stored in the container body. There was a problem that it was difficult to take out an appropriate amount. In addition, when the container body is made of, for example, glass or a thermoplastic synthetic resin, it looks bad from the outside of the container body, and the contents are visible even if the container body is transparent. There is also a problem that it is difficult to check the remaining amount of the contents because the objects are contained in the bag.

本発明は、前述した事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、その目的は、詰め替え容器内の内容物を容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる詰め替え容器を提供することである。   This invention is made | formed in view of the situation mentioned above, The objective is to provide the refill container which can transfer the contents in a refill container easily and for a short time.

上記課題を解決するために、本発明は以下の手段を提案している。
本発明に係る詰め替え容器は、内容物が充填された有底筒状の容器本体を備える詰め替え容器であって、前記容器本体の口部は、径方向の外側に突出した押し当て部を有する外筒部と、前記外筒部の内側に配設された内筒部と、を備え、前記内筒部は、前記外筒部において容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の外側に位置する外側端部に固定された固定筒部と、前記外筒部において容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に位置する内側端部内に離脱可能に嵌合された有底筒状の蓋筒部と、容器軸回りに間隔をあけて複数配置され、前記固定筒部と前記蓋筒部とを連結する連結片と、を備え、前記外筒部は、容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に向けて屈曲変形可能に形成されていることを特徴とするものである。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes the following means.
A refill container according to the present invention is a refill container having a bottomed cylindrical container main body filled with contents, and the mouth of the container main body has an outer pressing portion protruding outward in the radial direction. A cylindrical portion and an inner cylindrical portion disposed inside the outer cylindrical portion, and the inner cylindrical portion is an outer end portion located outside the container body along the container axial direction in the outer cylindrical portion. A fixed cylindrical portion fixed to the inner cylindrical portion, a bottomed cylindrical lid cylindrical portion removably fitted in an inner end portion located inside the container main body along the container axial direction in the outer cylindrical portion, and a container shaft A plurality of connecting pieces connecting the fixed cylinder part and the lid cylinder part, the outer cylinder part being bent toward the inside of the container body along the container axial direction. It is formed so as to be deformable.

本発明に係る詰め替え容器においては、まず、この詰め替え容器を倒立姿勢にした状態で、内容物を使い切った後の容器体の口部の開口端縁に、外筒部の押し当て部を押し当てる。これにより、内筒部内と容器体内とが連通する。なお、内筒部の蓋筒部が外筒部の内側端部内に嵌合されているので、詰め替え容器を倒立姿勢にする際に容器本体の胴部内の内容物が零れ落ちることはない。
次いで、詰め替え容器を容器体側に押し込んでいくと、容器体の口部の開口端縁によって押し当て部が容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に向けて押し込まれ、外筒部が容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に向けて屈曲変形させられ、外筒部において外側端部と内側端部とが容器軸方向において接近する。 In the refill container according to the present invention, first, in a state where the refill container is in an inverted posture, the pressing portion of the outer cylinder portion is pressed against the opening edge of the mouth portion of the container body after the contents are used up. . Thereby, the inside of an inner cylinder part and a container body communicate. In addition, since the cover cylinder part of an inner cylinder part is fitted in the inner side edge part of an outer cylinder part, when making a refill container into an inverted posture, the content in the trunk | drum of a container main body does not fall down.
Next, when the refill container is pushed into the container body side, the pressing portion is pushed toward the inside of the container body along the container axial direction by the opening edge of the mouth portion of the container body, and the outer cylinder portion is in the container axial direction. Is bent and deformed toward the inside of the container body along the outer cylinder portion, and the outer end portion and the inner end portion approach each other in the container axial direction in the outer cylinder portion.

ここで、内筒部は、固定筒部が外筒部の外側端部に固定されていると共に、蓋筒部が外筒部の内側端部に離脱可能に嵌合されているので、外筒部の屈曲変形に伴い、内筒部が外筒部の内側端部に対して容器軸方向に沿って容器本体の内側に向けてスライド移動し、内筒部の蓋筒部と外筒部の内側端部との嵌合が解除される。そしてこの際、容器軸回りで隣り合う連結片同士の間の隙間を通して容器本体の胴部内と内筒部内とが連通する。これにより、容器本体の胴部内の内容物が連結片間の隙間を通って容器体内に注ぎ込まれ、その結果、詰め替え容器内の内容物が容器体内に外気に触れることを抑えつつ短時間で移し替えられる。
以上より、本発明に係る詰め替え容器によれば、詰め替え容器内の内容物を容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。 Here, the inner cylinder part has the fixed cylinder part fixed to the outer end part of the outer cylinder part, and the cover cylinder part is detachably fitted to the inner end part of the outer cylinder part. With the bending deformation of the part, the inner cylinder part slides toward the inner side of the container body along the container axial direction with respect to the inner end part of the outer cylinder part, and the lid cylinder part and the outer cylinder part of the inner cylinder part are moved. The fitting with the inner end is released. At this time, the inside of the body portion of the container body and the inside of the inner cylinder portion communicate with each other through a gap between adjacent connecting pieces around the container axis. As a result, the contents in the body of the container body are poured into the container through the gap between the connecting pieces, and as a result, the contents in the refill container are transferred in a short time while preventing the contents in the refill container from touching the outside air. Be replaced.
As described above, according to the refill container of the present invention, the contents in the refill container can be easily and quickly transferred.

また、本発明に係る詰め替え容器では、前記押し当て部は、環状に形成されていても良い。   In the refill container according to the present invention, the pressing portion may be formed in an annular shape.

この場合、押し当て部が環状に形成されているので、詰め替え容器を倒立姿勢にした状態で容器体の口部の開口端縁に押し当て部を押し当てる際、この押し当て部を前記開口端縁に全周に亘って押し当てることができる。これにより、詰め替え容器を容器体側に押し込む作業が容易となり、詰め替え容器内の内容物をより一層容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。
また、詰め替え容器を容器体側に押し込む際に、容器体の口部の開口端縁から押し当て部に作用する力が、環状の押し当て部を介して外筒部の全周に亘って伝達されるので、外筒部の屈曲変形を容器軸回りの位置によらず安定させて高精度にすることができる。これにより、内筒部のスライド移動を円滑なものとすることが可能となり、この点においても詰め替え容器内の内容物をより一層容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。
また、環状の押し当て部を容器体の口部の開口端縁に押し当てることで、容器体の内部と外部との連通を押し当て部によって効果的に抑えることが可能となるので、詰め替え容器内の内容物を容器体内に移し替える際、内容物が外気に触れるのをより一層抑制することができる。 In this case, since the pressing portion is formed in an annular shape, when the pressing portion is pressed against the opening edge of the mouth portion of the container body in a state where the refill container is in an inverted posture, the pressing portion is moved to the opening end. It can be pressed to the edge over the entire circumference. Thereby, the operation | work which pushes a refilling container into the container body side becomes easy, and the contents in a refilling container can be transferred still more easily and in a short time.
Further, when the refill container is pushed into the container body, the force acting on the pressing portion from the opening edge of the mouth portion of the container body is transmitted over the entire circumference of the outer cylinder portion via the annular pressing portion. Therefore, the bending deformation of the outer cylinder portion can be stabilized and highly accurate regardless of the position around the container axis. Thereby, it becomes possible to make the sliding movement of the inner cylinder part smooth, and also in this respect, the contents in the refill container can be transferred more easily and in a short time.
In addition, by pressing the annular pressing portion against the opening edge of the mouth of the container body, it is possible to effectively suppress the communication between the inside and the outside of the container body by the pressing portion. When the contents inside are transferred into the container, the contents can be further prevented from touching the outside air.

また、本発明に係る詰め替え容器では、前記押し当て部は、前記外筒部の外側端部よりも容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に形成されていても良い。   Moreover, in the refill container which concerns on this invention, the said pressing part may be formed inside the container main body along a container axial direction rather than the outer side edge part of the said outer cylinder part.

この場合、押し当て部が、外筒部の外側端部よりも容器軸方向に沿った容器本体の内側に形成されているので、内容物の詰め替えに際して押し当て部を容器体の開口端縁に押し当てたときに、外筒部の外側端部を容器体の口部内に進入させておくことができる。従って、容器体の口部に対して外筒部を確実且つ容易に位置決めすることができると共に内容物が移し替えられる際に外気に触れるのをより一層抑制することができる。   In this case, since the pressing portion is formed inside the container body along the container axial direction from the outer end portion of the outer cylinder portion, the pressing portion is used as the opening edge of the container body when the contents are refilled. When pressed, the outer end portion of the outer cylinder portion can be allowed to enter the mouth portion of the container body. Therefore, it is possible to reliably and easily position the outer cylinder portion with respect to the mouth portion of the container body, and to further suppress contact with the outside air when the contents are transferred.

本発明に係る詰め替え容器によれば、詰め替え容器内の内容物を容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。   According to the refill container of the present invention, the contents in the refill container can be transferred easily and in a short time.

The outer diameter of the upper end portion 6a of the trunk portion 6 is smaller than the outer diameter of the portion of the trunk portion 6 located below the upper end portion 6a. The lower end portion of the overcap 4 is engaged with the upper end portion 6a so as to be detachable. The shoulder portion 7 is connected to the upper end of the upper end portion 6a of the body portion 6, and gradually decreases in diameter toward the upper side.

口部３は、径方向の外側に突出した押し当て部８を有する外筒部９と、外筒部９の内側に配設された内筒部１０と、を備えている。外筒部９及び内筒部１０は、いずれも容器軸Ｏと同軸に配設されており、外筒部９の下側の端部である内側端部９ａは、その下端が肩部７の上端に連設され、内筒部１０は、容器本体２と別部材で構成されている。   The mouth portion 3 includes an outer tube portion 9 having a pressing portion 8 protruding outward in the radial direction, and an inner tube portion 10 disposed inside the outer tube portion 9. The outer cylinder part 9 and the inner cylinder part 10 are both arranged coaxially with the container axis O, and the lower end of the inner end part 9a, which is the lower end part of the outer cylinder part 9, has a shoulder part 7 at the lower end. The inner cylinder part 10 is connected with the upper end, and is comprised with the container main body 2 and another member.

本実施形態では、押し当て部８は、環状に形成されている。更に、押し当て部８は、外筒部９の上側の端部である外側端部９ｂよりも下側に形成されている。
図示の例では、外筒部９は、外側端部９ｂと前記内側端部９ａとの間に位置する部分が径方向の外側に膨出するように形成されている。即ち、外筒部９の外側端部９ｂの下端には、前記押し当て部８の上端が連設されており、この押し当て部８は、径方向の外側に向かうに連れて漸次下側に向かうように形成されている。また、押し当て部８の下端には、上側から下側に向かうに従い漸次縮径する環状体に形成され、下端が前記内側端部９ａの上端に連なる連結環部１２が連設されている。また、図示の例では、押し当て部８と連結環部１２との連結部分１２ａの外周面の縦断面視形状は、凸曲面状となっていると共に、前記連結部分１２ａの内周面の縦断面視形状は、凹曲面状となっている。 In the present embodiment, the pressing portion 8 is formed in an annular shape. Further, the pressing portion 8 is formed below the outer end portion 9 b that is the upper end portion of the outer cylinder portion 9.
In the illustrated example, the outer cylinder portion 9 is formed such that a portion located between the outer end portion 9b and the inner end portion 9a bulges outward in the radial direction. That is, the upper end of the pressing portion 8 is connected to the lower end of the outer end portion 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9, and the pressing portion 8 is gradually lowered toward the outer side in the radial direction. It is formed to head. Further, a connecting ring portion 12 is formed at the lower end of the pressing portion 8 so as to form an annular body that gradually decreases in diameter from the upper side toward the lower side, and the lower end is connected to the upper end of the inner end portion 9a. In the illustrated example, the longitudinal sectional view shape of the outer peripheral surface of the connecting portion 12a between the pressing portion 8 and the connecting ring portion 12 is a convex curved surface, and the inner peripheral surface of the connecting portion 12a is vertically cut. The shape in plan view is a concave curved surface.

また、外筒部９において外側端部９ｂの内径及び外径は、内側端部９ａの内径及び外径それぞれよりも大きくなっている。また、外側端部９ｂは、外筒部９の他の部分より厚肉に形成されて剛性が高められている。図示の例では、外側端部９ｂの下端部は、径方向内側に向けて突出するように厚肉に形成され、外側端部９ｂの上端部は、径方向外側に向けて突出するように厚肉に形成されている。また、外側端部９ｂの下端部の内周面には、後述するように内筒部１０を固定するための係合凹溝９ｃが形成されている。図示の例では、係合凹溝９ｃは、外側端部９ｂの下端部の容器軸Ｏ方向における中間部分に、容器軸Ｏ回りに全周に亘って形成されている。   Moreover, in the outer cylinder part 9, the inner diameter and outer diameter of the outer end part 9b are larger than the inner diameter and outer diameter of the inner end part 9a, respectively. Further, the outer end portion 9b is formed to be thicker than other portions of the outer tube portion 9, and the rigidity is enhanced. In the illustrated example, the lower end portion of the outer end portion 9b is formed thick so as to protrude radially inward, and the upper end portion of the outer end portion 9b is thick so as to protrude outward in the radial direction. It is formed in meat. Further, an engaging groove 9c for fixing the inner cylinder portion 10 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the lower end portion of the outer end portion 9b as will be described later. In the illustrated example, the engaging groove 9c is formed over the entire circumference around the container axis O in an intermediate portion in the container axis O direction at the lower end of the outer end 9b.

また、本実施形態では、押し当て部８には、この押し当て部８に上側から所定の筒状体を押し当てるときに、前記筒状体が外筒部９の外側端部９ｂを径方向の外側から囲うように位置決めをする位置決めガイド部８ａが備えられている。
図示の例では、位置決めガイド部８ａは、筒状に形成され、押し当て部８における容器軸Ｏ方向の中間部分に、容器軸Ｏと同軸に配設されている。そして、押し当て部８は、前記位置決めガイド部８ａと、位置決めガイド部８ａの上端から外側端部９ｂの下端まで延びる第１環部８ｂと、位置決めガイド部８ａの下端から下側に延びる第２環部８ｃと、により構成されている。
以上のように位置決めガイド部８ａを備える押し当て部８によれば、この押し当て部８に所定の筒状体を押し当てるときに、位置決めガイド部８ａの外周面と前記筒状体の内周面とを接触させながら径方向の位置を調整して押し当てることで、前記筒状体が外筒部９の外側端部９ｂを径方向の外側から囲うように前記筒状体を外筒部９に対して位置決めすることができる。 Further, in the present embodiment, when the predetermined cylindrical body is pressed against the pressing portion 8 from the upper side, the cylindrical body causes the outer end portion 9b of the outer cylindrical portion 9 to radially contact the pressing portion 8. A positioning guide portion 8a for positioning so as to surround from the outside is provided.
In the illustrated example, the positioning guide portion 8 a is formed in a cylindrical shape, and is disposed coaxially with the container axis O in the intermediate portion of the pressing portion 8 in the container axis O direction. The pressing portion 8 includes the positioning guide portion 8a, a first ring portion 8b extending from the upper end of the positioning guide portion 8a to the lower end of the outer end portion 9b, and a second extending downward from the lower end of the positioning guide portion 8a.

Further, on the outer peripheral surface of the fixed cylinder portion 15, an engagement protrusion 15 a that is engaged with an engagement groove 9 c formed on the inner peripheral surface of the outer end portion 9 b of the outer cylinder portion 9 is formed. In the example shown in the figure, the engaging protrusion 15a is formed in the intermediate portion of the fixed cylinder portion 15 in the container axis O direction around the container axis O, and the engaging protrusion 15a and the outer cylinder are formed. The fixed cylindrical portion 15 is fixed to the outer end portion 9 b of the outer cylindrical portion 9 by engaging with the engaging concave groove 9 c of the portion 9.

また、図示の例では、固定筒部１５の外径は、外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径よりも大きくなっている。
なお、図示の例では、固定筒部１５の上端部は、径方向外側に向けて突出するように厚肉に形成されており、その下面が外筒部９の外側端部９ｂの下端部の上面により下側から支持されている。また、固定筒部１５の上端は、外筒部９の外側端部９ｂの上端よりも容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って同等若しくは下側に位置している。 In the illustrated example, the outer diameter of the fixed cylinder portion 15 is larger than the inner diameter of the inner end portion 9 a of the outer cylinder portion 9.
In the illustrated example, the upper end portion of the fixed cylinder portion 15 is formed thick so as to protrude outward in the radial direction, and the lower surface thereof is the lower end portion of the outer end portion 9 b of the outer cylinder portion 9. It is supported from below by the upper surface. Further, the upper end of the fixed cylinder portion 15 is located at the same or lower side along the container axis O direction than the upper end of the outer end portion 9 b of the outer cylinder portion 9.

蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径は、外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径と同等とされている。また、蓋筒部１６の底部１６ｂは、下方に向けて突出すると共に下方に向かうに連れて漸次縮径する中空円錐体状をなしている。以上のように構成されることで、蓋筒部１６は、外筒部９の内側端部９ａに対して容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って離脱可能に嵌合されている。   The outer diameter of the peripheral wall portion 16 a of the lid cylinder portion 16 is equal to the inner diameter of the inner end portion 9 a of the outer cylinder portion 9. Further, the bottom portion 16b of the lid cylinder portion 16 has a hollow cone shape that protrudes downward and gradually decreases in diameter as it goes downward. By being configured as described above, the lid cylinder portion 16 is detachably fitted to the inner end portion 9a of the outer cylinder portion 9 along the container axis O direction.

本実施形態では、複数の連結片１７は、全てが同形同大に形成されている。
図示の例では、連結片１７は、蓋筒部１６の上端から容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って上側に延びる第１連結片部１７ｂと、固定筒部１５において第１連結片部１７ｂに容器軸Ｏ回りで対応する部分の下端から容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って下側に延びる第２連結片部１７ｃと、第１連結片部１７ｂと第２連結片部１７ｃとを連結する屈曲部１７ａと、を備えている。 In the present embodiment, the plurality of connecting pieces 17 are all formed in the same shape and size.
In the illustrated example, the connecting piece 17 includes a first connecting piece portion 17b extending upward from the upper end of the lid tube portion 16 in the container axis O direction, and a container shaft O on the first connecting piece portion 17b in the fixed tube portion 15. A second connecting piece portion 17c extending downward along the container axis O direction from a lower end of a corresponding portion around, and a bent portion 17a connecting the first connecting piece portion 17b and the second connecting piece portion 17c. I have.

図示の例では、第１連結片部１７ｂにおいて径方向内側を向く内周面の横断面視形状は、凹曲面状であり、容器軸Ｏから第１連結片部１７ｂの内周面までの径方向に沿った距離は、第１連結片部１７ｂの容器軸Ｏ回り方向及び容器軸Ｏ方向の位置によらず一定で、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの内径と同等となっている。つまり、第１連結片部１７ｂの内周面は、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの内周面と面一になっている。
更に、第１連結片部１７ｂにおいて径方向外側を向く外周面の横断面視形状は、凸曲面状であり、容器軸Ｏから第１連結片部１７ｂの外周面までの径方向に沿った距離は、第１連結片部１７ｂの容器軸Ｏ回り方向及び容器軸Ｏ方向の位置によらず一定で、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径と同等となっている。つまり、第１連結片部１７ｂの外周面は、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外周面と面一になっている。 In the illustrated example, the cross-sectional view shape of the inner peripheral surface facing radially inward in the first connecting piece portion 17b is a concave curved surface, and the diameter from the container axis O to the inner peripheral surface of the first connecting piece portion 17b. The distance along the direction is constant regardless of the position of the first connecting piece 17b in the direction around the container axis O and the position in the container axis O direction, and is equal to the inner diameter of the peripheral wall portion 16a of the lid cylinder portion 16. That is, the inner peripheral surface of the first connecting piece portion 17 b is flush with the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion 16 a of the lid tube portion 16.
Furthermore, the cross-sectional view shape of the outer peripheral surface facing radially outward in the first connecting piece portion 17b is a convex curved surface, and the distance along the radial direction from the container axis O to the outer peripheral surface of the first connecting piece portion 17b. Is constant regardless of the position of the first connecting piece portion 17b in the direction around the container axis O and in the container axis O direction, and is equal to the outer diameter of the peripheral wall portion 16a of the lid tube portion 16. That is, the outer peripheral surface of the first connecting piece portion 17 b is flush with the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion 16 a of the lid tube portion 16.

以上のように第１連結片部１７ｂが構成されることで、連結片１７は、蓋筒部１６の上端に連なる部分における容器軸Ｏから外表面までの径方向に沿った距離が、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径、つまり外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径と同等となっている。
また、第１連結片部１７ｂの容器軸Ｏ方向の大きさは、外筒部９の内側端部９ａの容器軸Ｏ方向の大きさより大きくなっており、図示の例では、例えば外筒部９の内側端部９ａの容器軸Ｏ方向の大きさの約２．５倍になっている。 By configuring the first connecting piece portion 17b as described above, the connecting piece 17 has a distance in the radial direction from the container axis O to the outer surface at the portion continuous to the upper end of the cover tube portion 16 so that the cover tube The outer diameter of the peripheral wall portion 16 a of the portion 16, that is, the inner diameter of the inner end portion 9 a of the outer cylinder portion 9 is the same.
Further, the size of the first connecting piece portion 17b in the container axis O direction is larger than the size of the inner end portion 9a of the outer cylinder portion 9 in the container axis O direction. In the illustrated example, for example, the outer cylinder portion 9 Is about 2.5 times the size of the inner end portion 9a in the container axis O direction.

また、図示の例では、第２連結片部１７ｃにおいて径方向内側を向く内周面の横断面視形状は、凹曲面状であり、容器軸Ｏから第２連結片部１７ｃの内周面までの径方向に沿った距離は、第２連結片部１７ｃの容器軸Ｏ回り方向及び容器軸Ｏ方向の位置によらず一定で、固定筒部１５の内径と同等となっている。つまり、第２連結片部１７ｃの内周面は、固定筒部１５の内周面と面一になっている。
更に、第２連結片部１７ｃにおいて径方向外側を向く外周面の横断面視形状は、凸曲面状であり、容器軸Ｏから第２連結片部１７ｃの外周面までの径方向に沿った距離は、第２連結片部１７ｃの容器軸Ｏ回り方向及び容器軸Ｏ方向の位置によらず一定で、固定筒部１５の外径と同等となっている。つまり、第２連結片部１７ｃの外周面は、固定筒部１５の外周面と面一になっている。 In the illustrated example, the cross-sectional view shape of the inner peripheral surface facing radially inward in the second connecting piece portion 17c is a concave curved surface shape, from the container axis O to the inner peripheral surface of the second connecting piece portion 17c. The distance along the radial direction is constant regardless of the position of the second connecting piece 17c in the direction around the container axis O and the position in the container axis O direction, and is equal to the inner diameter of the fixed cylinder portion 15. That is, the inner peripheral surface of the second connecting piece portion 17 c is flush with the inner peripheral surface of the fixed cylinder portion 15.
Furthermore, the cross-sectional view shape of the outer peripheral surface facing radially outward in the second connecting piece portion 17c is a convex curved surface, and the distance along the radial direction from the container axis O to the outer peripheral surface of the second connecting piece portion 17c. Is constant regardless of the position of the second connecting piece 17c in the direction around the container axis O and the position in the container axis O direction, and is equal to the outer diameter of the fixed cylinder part 15. That is, the outer peripheral surface of the second connecting piece portion 17 c is flush with the outer peripheral surface of the fixed cylinder portion 15.

また、図示の例では、屈曲部１７ａにおいて径方向内側を向く内周面の横断面視形状は、凹曲面状であり、屈曲部１７ａにおいて径方向外側を向く外周面の横断面視形状は、凸曲面状となっている。また、容器軸Ｏから屈曲部１７ａの内周面までの径方向に沿った距離、及び容器軸Ｏから屈曲部１７ａの外周面までの径方向に沿った距離は、屈曲部１７ａにおいて下側から上側に向かうに連れて漸次大きくなっている。つまり、屈曲部１７ａは、連結片１７において容器軸Ｏ方向に交差するように屈曲された部分である。   In the illustrated example, the cross-sectional view shape of the inner peripheral surface facing the radially inner side in the bent portion 17a is a concave curved surface shape, and the cross-sectional view shape of the outer peripheral surface facing the radially outer side in the bent portion 17a is It has a convex curved surface. Further, the distance along the radial direction from the container axis O to the inner peripheral surface of the bent portion 17a and the distance along the radial direction from the container axis O to the outer peripheral surface of the bent portion 17a are as follows. It becomes gradually larger toward the upper side. That is, the bent portion 17a is a portion bent at the connecting piece 17 so as to intersect the container axis O direction.

以上のように構成された連結片１７が容器軸Ｏ回りに間隔をあけて複数配置されることで、各連結片１７間に複数の隙間Ａが形成される。そして、この隙間Ａにより、内筒部１０と外筒部９とが連通されている。
なお、図示の例では、連結片１７は、例えば４つ設けられており、隣り合う連結片１７同士の間隔が容器軸Ｏ回りに互いに等しくなるように配置されている。これにより、前記隙間Ａは容器軸Ｏ回りに４つ画成され、いずれの隙間Ａも同形同大となっている。 A plurality of gaps A are formed between the respective connecting pieces 17 by arranging a plurality of connecting pieces 17 configured as described above around the container axis O at intervals. The inner cylinder portion 10 and the outer cylinder portion 9 communicate with each other through the gap A.
In the illustrated example, for example, four connecting pieces 17 are provided, and the connecting pieces 17 adjacent to each other are arranged so that the interval between the adjacent connecting pieces 17 is equal to each other around the container axis O. As a result, four gaps A are defined around the container axis O, and all the gaps A have the same shape and size.

そして、本実施形態では、図１に示すように、外筒部９は、容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った下側に向けて屈曲変形可能に形成されている。
図示の例では、外筒部９に上側から力が作用した場合、連結環部１２と押し当て部８との連結部分１２ａ及び連結環部１２と内側端部９ａとの連結部分１２ｂに応力が集中して、外筒部９は、これら連結部分１２ａ、１２ｂを起点として容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った下側に向けて屈曲変形可能とされている。 And in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the outer cylinder part 9 is formed so that bending deformation is possible toward the lower side along the container axis O direction.
In the illustrated example, when a force acts on the outer cylinder portion 9 from above, stress is applied to the connecting portion 12a between the connecting ring portion 12 and the pressing portion 8 and the connecting portion 12b between the connecting ring portion 12 and the inner end portion 9a. Concentrating, the outer cylinder portion 9 is configured to be able to bend and deform toward the lower side along the container axis O direction from the connection portions 12a and 12b.

次に、以上に示した詰め替え容器１の使用方法の一例について説明する。
以下では、この詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆを、詰め替え容器１とは異なる筒状の容器体２０に移し替える場合について説明する。
まず、容器本体２からオーバーキャップ４及びシール材１３を取り外す。
次いで、図３に示すように、この詰め替え容器１を倒立姿勢にした状態で、内容物Ｆを使い切った後の容器体２０の口部２１の開口端縁２２に、外筒部９の押し当て部８を位置決めしながら押し当てる。 Next, an example of how to use the refill container 1 shown above will be described.
Below, the case where the contents F in this refill container 1 are transferred to the cylindrical container body 20 different from the refill container 1 is demonstrated.
First, the overcap 4 and the sealing material 13 are removed from the container body 2.
Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer cylinder portion 9 is pressed against the opening edge 22 of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20 after the contents F are used up in a state where the refill container 1 is in an inverted posture. The part 8 is pressed while positioning.

この際、押し当て部８が、外筒部９の外側端部９ｂよりも容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った容器本体２の内側に形成されているので、容器体２０の口部２１の内周面を外筒部９の外側端部９ｂの外周面に接触させながら、容器体２０の口部２１内に外筒部９の外側端部９ｂを進入させておくことができる。従って、容器体２０の口部２１に対して外筒部９を確実且つ容易に位置決めすることができる。しかも、図示の例では、押し当て部８には、位置決めガイド部８ａが備えられているので、より確実且つ容易に外筒部９を位置決めすることができる。   At this time, the pressing portion 8 is formed on the inner side of the container body 2 along the container axis O direction with respect to the outer end portion 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9, so that the inner peripheral surface of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20 is formed. The outer end portion 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9 can be allowed to enter the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20 while contacting the outer peripheral surface of the outer end portion 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9. Therefore, the outer cylinder part 9 can be reliably and easily positioned with respect to the mouth part 21 of the container body 20. In addition, in the illustrated example, the pressing portion 8 is provided with the positioning guide portion 8a, so that the outer cylinder portion 9 can be positioned more reliably and easily.

ここで、内筒部１０は、固定筒部１５が外筒部９の外側端部９ｂに固定されているので、前述のように容器体２０の口部２１内に外筒部９の外側端部９ｂを進入させておくことで、内筒部１０の固定筒部１５も併せて容器体２０の口部２１内に進入させておくことが可能となる。これにより、内筒部１０内と容器体２０内とが連通する。なお、内筒部１０の蓋筒部１６が外筒部９の内側端部９ａ内に嵌合されているので、詰め替え容器１を倒立姿勢にする際に容器本体２の胴部６内の内容物Ｆが零れ落ちることはない。   Here, since the fixed cylinder part 15 is being fixed to the outer side edge part 9b of the outer cylinder part 9, the inner cylinder part 10 has the outer edge of the outer cylinder part 9 in the mouth part 21 of the container body 20 as mentioned above. By allowing the part 9b to enter, the fixed cylinder part 15 of the inner cylinder part 10 can also enter the mouth part 21 of the container body 20 together. Thereby, the inside of the inner cylinder part 10 and the inside of the container body 20 communicate. In addition, since the cover cylinder part 16 of the inner cylinder part 10 is fitted in the inner side end part 9a of the outer cylinder part 9, the content in the trunk | drum 6 of the container main body 2 is set when the refill container 1 is set in the inverted posture. The thing F does not fall down.

次いで、図４に示すように、詰め替え容器１を容器体２０側に押し込んでいくと、容器体２０の口部２１の開口端縁２２によって押し当て部８が容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った容器本体２の内側に向けて押し込まれ、外筒部９が容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って屈曲変形させられる。図示の例では、連結環部１２と押し当て部８との連結部分１２ａ及び連結環部１２と内側端部９ａとの連結部分１２ｂを起点として屈曲変形させられる。これにより、外筒部９において、外側端部９ｂと内側端部９ａとが容器軸Ｏ方向において接近する。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4, when the refill container 1 is pushed into the container body 20 side, the pressing body 8 is moved along the container axis O direction by the opening edge 22 of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20. 2, the outer tube portion 9 is bent and deformed along the container axis O direction. In the illustrated example, the connecting ring portion 12 and the pressing portion 8 are bent and deformed starting from a connecting portion 12a between the connecting ring portion 12 and the pressing portion 8 and a connecting portion 12b between the connecting ring portion 12 and the inner end portion 9a. Thereby, in the outer cylinder part 9, the outer side edge part 9b and the inner side edge part 9a approach in the container axis | shaft O direction.

ここで、内筒部１０は、固定筒部１５が外筒部９の外側端部９ｂに固定されていると共に、蓋筒部１６が外筒部９の内側端部９ａに離脱可能に嵌合されているので、外筒部９の屈曲変形に伴い、内筒部１０が外筒部９の内側端部９ａに対して容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って容器本体２の内側に向けてスライド移動し、内筒部１０の蓋筒部１６と外筒部９の内側端部９ａとの嵌合が解除される。本実施形態では、内筒部１０は、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａ及び各連結片１７の第１連結片部１７ｂが外筒部９の内側端部９ａに対してスライド移動する。   Here, the inner cylinder part 10 is fitted with the fixed cylinder part 15 fixed to the outer end part 9b of the outer cylinder part 9 and the cover cylinder part 16 removably fitted to the inner end part 9a of the outer cylinder part 9. Therefore, as the outer cylinder portion 9 is bent and deformed, the inner cylinder portion 10 slides toward the inner side of the container body 2 along the container axis O direction with respect to the inner end portion 9a of the outer cylinder portion 9. The fitting between the cover tube portion 16 of the inner tube portion 10 and the inner end portion 9a of the outer tube portion 9 is released. In the present embodiment, in the inner cylinder part 10, the peripheral wall part 16 a of the cover cylinder part 16 and the first connection piece part 17 b of each connection piece 17 slide relative to the inner end part 9 a of the outer cylinder part 9.

そしてこの際、内筒部１０の蓋筒部１６の上端が外筒部９の内側端部９ａの下端より容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った容器本体２の内側に移動することで、容器軸Ｏ回りで隣り合う連結片１７同士の間の隙間Ａを通して容器本体２の胴部６内と内筒部１０内とが連通する。これにより、容器本体２の胴部６内の内容物Ｆが連結片１７間の隙間Ａを通って容器体２０内に注ぎ込まれ、その結果、詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆが容器体２０内に外気に触れることを抑えつつ短時間で移し替えられる。   At this time, the upper end of the cover cylinder part 16 of the inner cylinder part 10 moves from the lower end of the inner end part 9a of the outer cylinder part 9 to the inner side of the container body 2 along the container axis O direction. Thus, the inside of the body portion 6 of the container body 2 and the inside of the inner cylinder portion 10 communicate with each other through the gap A between the adjacent connecting pieces 17. Thereby, the content F in the trunk | drum 6 of the container main body 2 is poured in in the container body 20 through the clearance gap A between the connection pieces 17, As a result, the content F in the refill container 1 is in the container body 20. It can be transferred in a short time without touching the outside air.

なお本実施形態では、外筒部９は、連結環部１２と押し当て部８との連結部分１２ａ及び連結環部１２と内側端部９ａとの連結部分１２ｂを起点として屈曲変形させられる。従って、これら連結部分１２ａ、１２ｂより容器軸Ｏ方向に沿った容器本体２の外側に位置する外筒部９の外側端部９ｂ、及びこの外側端部９ｂに固定筒部１５が固定されている内筒部１０は、容器体２０に対して容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って相対的に大きく位置関係が変化することがない。これにより、内筒部１０は、容器体２０内に進入された状態が維持される。   In the present embodiment, the outer cylinder portion 9 is bent and deformed starting from a connecting portion 12a between the connecting ring portion 12 and the pressing portion 8 and a connecting portion 12b between the connecting ring portion 12 and the inner end portion 9a. Therefore, the fixed cylinder part 15 is fixed to the outer end part 9b of the outer cylinder part 9 located outside the container main body 2 along the container axis O direction from the connecting parts 12a and 12b, and the outer end part 9b. The inner cylinder portion 10 does not change its positional relationship relative to the container body 20 along the container axis O direction. Thereby, the state in which the inner cylinder part 10 was approached in the container body 20 is maintained.

以上に示した詰め替え容器１によれば、詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆを容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。
また、押し当て部８が環状に形成されているので、詰め替え容器１を倒立姿勢にした状態で容器体２０の口部２１の開口端縁２２に押し当て部８を押し当てる際、この押し当て部８を前記開口端縁２２に全周に亘って押し当てることができる。これにより、詰め替え容器１を容器体２０側に押し込む作業が容易となり、詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆをより一層容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。 According to the refill container 1 shown above, the contents F in the refill container 1 can be transferred easily and in a short time.
Further, since the pressing portion 8 is formed in an annular shape, when the pressing portion 8 is pressed against the opening edge 22 of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20 with the refill container 1 in the inverted posture, the pressing portion 8 is pressed. The portion 8 can be pressed against the opening edge 22 over the entire circumference. Thereby, the operation | work which pushes the refilling container 1 into the container body 20 side becomes easy, and the content F in the refilling container 1 can be transferred still more easily and in a short time.

また、詰め替え容器１を容器体２０側に押し込む際に、容器体２０の口部２１の開口端縁２２から押し当て部８に作用する力が、環状の押し当て部８を介して外筒部９の全周に亘って伝達されるので、外筒部９の屈曲変形を容器軸Ｏ回りの位置によらず安定させて高精度にすることができる。これにより、内筒部１０のスライド移動を円滑なものとすることが可能となり、この点においても詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆをより一層容易且つ短時間で移し替えることができる。   In addition, when the refill container 1 is pushed into the container body 20, the force acting on the pressing portion 8 from the opening edge 22 of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20 is transmitted through the annular pressing portion 8 to the outer cylinder portion. 9 is transmitted over the entire circumference, the bending deformation of the outer cylinder portion 9 can be stabilized regardless of the position around the container axis O and can be made highly accurate. Thereby, it becomes possible to make the sliding movement of the inner cylinder part 10 smooth, and also in this respect, the contents F in the refill container 1 can be transferred more easily and in a short time.

また、環状の押し当て部８を容器体２０の口部２１の開口端縁２２に押し当てることで、容器体２０の内部と外部との連通を押し当て部８によって効果的に抑えることが可能となるので、詰め替え容器１内の内容物Ｆを容器体２０内に移し替える際、内容物Ｆが外気に触れるのをより一層抑制することができる。
また、外筒部９の外側端部９ｂを容器体２０の口部２１内に進入させた状態で内容物Ｆを移し替えることができるので、移し替えに際し内容物Ｆが外気に触れるのをより一層抑制することができる。 In addition, by pressing the annular pressing portion 8 against the opening edge 22 of the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20, communication between the inside and the outside of the container body 20 can be effectively suppressed by the pressing portion 8. Therefore, when the contents F in the refill container 1 are transferred into the container body 20, the contents F can be further suppressed from touching the outside air.
Further, since the contents F can be transferred in a state where the outer end 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9 is inserted into the mouth portion 21 of the container body 20, the contents F can be exposed to the outside air during the transfer. Further suppression can be achieved.

なお、本発明の技術的範囲は前記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲において種々の変更を加えることが可能である。
例えば、前記実施形態では、押し当て部８は、外筒部９の外側端部９ｂよりも下側に形成されているものとしたが、これに限られない。
また、前記実施形態では、押し当て部８は、環状に形成されているものとしたが、これに限られない。例えば、押し当て部８は、外筒部９において容器軸Ｏを挟んで対向する２箇所から径方向の外側に向けて突出するように形成されていても良い。 The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the pressing portion 8 is formed below the outer end portion 9b of the outer cylinder portion 9, but is not limited thereto.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the pressing part 8 shall be formed cyclically | annularly, it is not restricted to this. For example, the pressing portion 8 may be formed so as to protrude outward in the radial direction from two locations facing each other across the container axis O in the outer cylinder portion 9.

また、押し当て部８は前述した構成に限られるものではなく、例えば、押し当て部８の外表面に、径方向に延びる少なくとも１つの凸部または凹部を形成しても良い。この場合、容器体２０の前記開口端縁２２を押し当て部８に押し当てたとき、容器体２０と押し当て部８との間に、容器体２０の内部から空気を外部に流出させるための空気置換通路を形成することができる。このように空気置換通路を形成することで、内容物Ｆが詰め替え容器１から容器体２０内に移し替えられるとき、容器体２０の内部の空気を前記空気置換通路を通して外部に流出させることが可能となり、内容物Ｆの移し替えをより短時間で行うことができる。   Further, the pressing portion 8 is not limited to the above-described configuration. For example, at least one convex portion or concave portion extending in the radial direction may be formed on the outer surface of the pressing portion 8. In this case, when the opening edge 22 of the container body 20 is pressed against the pressing portion 8, air flows out from the inside of the container body 20 between the container body 20 and the pressing portion 8. An air replacement passage can be formed. By forming the air replacement passage in this way, when the contents F are transferred from the refill container 1 into the container body 20, the air inside the container body 20 can flow out to the outside through the air replacement passage. Thus, the transfer of the contents F can be performed in a shorter time.

また、前記実施形態では、連結環部１２と押し当て部８との連結部分１２ａ及び連結環部１２と内側端部９ａとの連結部分１２ｂを起点として容器軸Ｏ方向に屈曲変形可能に形成したが、これに限られない。例えば、外筒部９において押し当て部８より下側に位置する部分を筒状に形成すると共に、前記部分に容器軸Ｏ方向に沿って屈曲変形可能な蛇腹状の屈曲部を形成することで、外筒部９を屈曲変形可能としても良い。   Moreover, in the said embodiment, it formed so that bending deformation was possible in the container axis O direction from the connection part 12a of the connection ring part 12 and the pressing part 8, and the connection part 12b of the connection ring part 12 and the inner side edge part 9a. However, it is not limited to this. For example, by forming a portion located below the pressing portion 8 in the outer tube portion 9 in a cylindrical shape, and forming a bellows-like bent portion that can be bent and deformed along the container axis O direction in the portion. The outer tube portion 9 may be bent and deformable.

また、前記実施形態では、連結片１７は、蓋筒部１６の上端に連なる部分における容器軸Ｏから外表面までの径方向に沿った距離が、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径、つまり外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径と同等となっているものとしたが、これに限られない。前記距離は、内筒部１０が外筒部９の内側端部９ａに対して容器軸Ｏ方向に沿ってスライド移動可能な範囲で設定されていれば良く、例えば外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径より若干小さくても良い。   Moreover, in the said embodiment, the distance along the radial direction from the container axis | shaft O to the outer surface in the part connected to the upper end of the cover cylinder part 16 is the connection piece 17 in the outer diameter of the surrounding wall part 16a of the cover cylinder part 16, In other words, the inner diameter is equal to the inner diameter of the inner end portion 9a of the outer tube portion 9, but the present invention is not limited to this. The distance may be set within a range in which the inner cylinder portion 10 is slidable along the container axis O direction with respect to the inner end portion 9a of the outer cylinder portion 9, for example, the inner end portion of the outer cylinder portion 9 It may be slightly smaller than the inner diameter of 9a.

また、前記実施形態では、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径が、外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径と同等となっているものとしたが、これに限られない。蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径は、蓋筒部１６が外筒部９の内側端部９ａ内に離脱可能に嵌合され、且つ胴部６内の内容物Ｆが蓋筒部１６と外筒部９の内側端部９ａとの間から流出しない範囲で設定されていれば良く、例えば外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径より若干小さくても良い。つまり、蓋筒部１６が外筒部９の内側端部９ａ内にいわゆる隙間嵌めされていても良い。更にまた、内筒部１０が外筒部９の内側端部９ａに対してスライド移動可能であれば、蓋筒部１６の周壁部１６ａの外径を外筒部９の内側端部９ａの内径より若干大きくしても良い。この場合、当該部分における密閉性を高めることができる。   Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the outer diameter of the surrounding wall part 16a of the cover cylinder part 16 shall be equivalent to the internal diameter of the inner side edge part 9a of the outer cylinder part 9, it is not restricted to this. The outer diameter of the peripheral wall portion 16 a of the lid cylinder portion 16 is such that the lid cylinder portion 16 is detachably fitted into the inner end portion 9 a of the outer cylinder portion 9, and the contents F in the trunk portion 6 is the lid cylinder portion 16. As long as it does not flow out from between the inner end 9a of the outer cylinder 9 and may be slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the inner end 9a of the outer cylinder 9, for example. That is, the lid cylinder part 16 may be fitted in a so-called gap in the inner end part 9 a of the outer cylinder part 9. Furthermore, if the inner cylinder part 10 is slidable relative to the inner end part 9 a of the outer cylinder part 9, the outer diameter of the peripheral wall part 16 a of the cover cylinder part 16 is set to the inner diameter of the inner end part 9 a of the outer cylinder part 9. It may be slightly larger. In this case, the sealing property in the part can be improved.

また、前記実施形態では、詰め替え容器１は、オーバーキャップ４及びシール材１３を備えるものとしたが、これらは無くても構わない。但し、オーバーキャップ４は、口部３を覆うように容器本体２に装着されており、不意の外力により外筒部９が屈曲変形してしまうのを防止することが可能となるので、備えていることが好ましい。   Moreover, although the refill container 1 shall be provided with the overcap 4 and the sealing material 13 in the said embodiment, these may not exist.
