Description

  The present invention relates to an improvement of a container with a cap, and more particularly to a container with a cap provided with a handle.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a container with a cap in which a liquid product such as a liquid detergent, a liquid bleaching agent, and a softening finish is accommodated in a container body, and a cap that is detachably put on the container body is used as a measuring cup (for example, Patent Document 1). , 2).

  For example, as shown in FIG. 9, such a container with a cap is a measuring cap 101 provided with a container main body 100 for storing the content liquid and a measuring unit 101 a for measuring the content liquid poured out from the container main body 100. And a pouring cap 102 provided with a pouring nozzle 102a for pouring the content liquid into the measuring cap 101. The pouring cap 102 has an annular bottom wall 102b extending from the base end portion of the pouring nozzle 102a to the periphery, and an annular gap R 'between the pouring nozzle 102a and the periphery of the bottom wall 102b. A cylindrical peripheral wall 102c that rises upward, and a return port 102d that returns the content liquid that flows down toward the bottom wall 102b into the container body 100 are provided.

  When washing is performed using such a liquid product, as shown in FIG. 10, the measuring cap 101 is removed from the dispensing cap 102, and the liquid content dispensed from the dispensing nozzle 102a is removed. After weighing with the weighing unit 101a of 101, an operation of putting it into the washing machine is performed.

  Further, in a conventional container with a cap, it is generally performed to attach an extraction cap to the mouth and neck of the container body by screwing. However, when the extraction cap 102 is screwed into the mouth / neck portion 100a of the container body 100 described above, the extraction cap 102 rotates together when the measuring cap 101 is removed, and the entire extraction cap 102 is removed. Such an inconvenience occurs.

  For this reason, a ratchet method, a screw fitting method using a stopper together, a driving fitting method, or the like is used to attach the dispensing cap 102 to the mouth / neck portion 100a of the container body 100. Thereby, after filling the container body 100 with the content liquid and attaching the pouring cap 102 to the mouth-and-neck portion 100a of the container main body 100, the consumer cannot easily remove the pouring cap 102. ing.

  By the way, in such a liquid product contained in a container with a cap, from the viewpoint of effective use of resources, after the content liquid has been used up, a refill container simply purchased is purchased and the content liquid contained in the refill container is purchased. By refilling a container with a cap, the container with a cap is reused without being replaced.

  Specifically, since the dispensing cap 102 cannot be removed as described above during the refilling operation, the content liquid poured out from the refilling container 200 as shown in FIG. 11 is discharged from the dispensing nozzle 102a and the peripheral wall 102c. The work of pouring from the gap R ′ between the two is performed.

  However, in the case of a conventional container with a cap, during such a refilling operation, the pouring nozzle 102a becomes an obstacle, and the content liquid cannot be poured well into the gap R ′ described above, and the content liquid is poured. In some cases, the outside of the output cap 102 overflowed. Further, in order to shorten the work time, if the content liquid is poured into the gap R ′ described above, the content liquid may overflow to the outside of the dispensing cap 102. Therefore, in any case, there arises a problem that the periphery of the dispensing cap 102 is stained with the content liquid.

Therefore, in the above-described refilling operation, the pouring cap 102 can be removed from the mouth / neck portion 100a of the container main body 100 in order to make it easy to pour the content liquid poured out from the refill container 200 into the container main body 100. Therefore, it is desirable to pour the content liquid from the mouth / neck portion 101 having a relatively wide mouth.
JP 2000-168821 A Japanese Patent No. 3015342

  However, when the extraction cap 102 is detachably attached to the mouth / neck portion 100a of the container main body 100 by screwing, the above-described problem of co-rotation of the extraction cap 102 occurs when the measuring cap 101 is removed. Resulting in. Conversely, in order to prevent co-rotation, if the fastening force of the pouring cap 102 with respect to the mouth / neck portion 100a of the container main body 100 is increased, it becomes difficult to remove the pouring cap 102 during refilling work. Will occur.

  Therefore, the present inventors provide a handle on the pouring cap, while turning the measuring cap with the other hand while holding the handle with one hand, while preventing the co-rotation of the pouring cap, Proposing to strengthen the extraction cap fastening force against the mouth and neck of the container body by applying a large force (opening torque) to the extraction cap by turning the extraction cap while holding the handle. ing.

  By the way, when such a handle is provided on the pouring cap, the pouring cap may be loosened due to external impact applied to the handle. Further, when the handle is provided on the pouring cap, the load of the container main body containing the content liquid concentrates on the screwed portion with the mouth neck portion 100a of the pouring cap 102 provided with the handle. It becomes easy to produce rattling in a part.

At the same time, the tip 5a of the handle 5 can be fitted into the recess 18 provided on the contact surface 2e.

  In this case, the direction of the pouring cap 3 attached to the mouth-and-neck portion 2a of the container body 2 can be regulated in a predetermined direction by fitting the tip portion 5a of the handle 5 into the concave portion 18 of the container body 2. In addition, the position where the mounting is completed can be clearly defined by screwing the extraction cap 3.

  Moreover, in this container 1 with a cap, even if the external impact etc. are added to the handle 5 by fitting the front-end | tip part 5a of the handle 5 to the recessed part 18 of the container main body 2, the front-end | tip part 5a of the handle 5 is made. Since it does not easily detach from the recess 18, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of loosening of the dispensing cap 3. In addition, even when the container 1 with a cap is lifted or tilted, the load applied to the screwed portion between the mouth and neck 2a of the container body 2 and the dispensing cap 3 is reduced, and the mouth and neck of the container body 2 is reduced. It is possible to prevent rattling or the like from occurring at the screwed portion between 2a and the dispensing cap 3.

  In the case of the extraction cap 3 in which the handle 5 is provided integrally, the rotation of the extraction cap 3 several times during the period from the start of screwing to the mounting on the container main body 2 The operability when opening and closing is very bad. For this reason, it is preferable that the opening / closing operation of the dispensing cap 3 with respect to the container body 2 can be performed within a range of 1/3 rotation or more and 1 rotation or less. Thereby, the opening / closing operation | movement of the extraction | pouring cap 3 can be made easy in the case of the refilling operation | work of the liquid detergent mentioned above.

  Moreover, in the said container 1 with a cap, although the front-end | tip part 5a of the handle 5 becomes a structure directly fitted in the recessed part 18 of the container main body 2, it is not necessarily limited to such a structure, The handle 5 It is good also as a structure which provided the contact surface contacted with the contact surface 2e of the container main body 2 in the front-end | tip part 5a, and provided the convex part fitted to the recessed part 18 in this contact surface.
