Description

本発明は、パウチのような可撓性包装体に内容物を詰めて密封してなる可撓性包装体詰め製品に関する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a flexible packaged product formed by filling a sealed package such as a pouch with the contents.

従来、カレールー等の流動性食品をパウチ（可撓性包装体）に詰めて密封し、加熱・殺菌したレトルトパウチ食品（パウチ詰め製品）がある。このようなレトルトパウチ食品として、近年、具を除いたタレや汁等の調味液を詰めて密封したものが提案されている（特許文献１参照）。このレトルトパウチ食品では、パウチを開封して具を投入した後に、ジッパーによってパウチを再封し、電子レンジ等によってタレや汁とともに具の加熱調理がなされる。 Conventionally, there is a retort pouch food (pouched product) in which a fluid food such as curry roux is packed in a pouch (flexible package), sealed, and heated and sterilized. In recent years, such retort pouch foods have been proposed in which a seasoning liquid such as sauce or juice is removed and sealed (see Patent Document 1). In this retort pouch food, after the pouch is opened and the utensil is inserted, the pouch is resealed by a zipper, and the utensil is cooked together with sauce and soup by a microwave oven or the like.

特開２００９−１２８３１号公報JP 2009-12831 A

ところで、前述した特許文献１記載のレトルトパウチ食品は、パウチ内に具を投入した後に、開口部近傍に設けられているジッパーを閉めることによって密封されるため、調味液（タレや汁等）とともに具を電子レンジ等で加熱調理する際に発生する蒸気によって当該パウチ内の圧力が上昇する。そこで、このレトルトパウチ食品では、パウチに蒸気を放出するための蒸気孔が形成されている。これにより、加熱調理に際して発生する蒸気によってパウチ内の圧力が上昇しようとしても蒸気孔から蒸気が放出されるので、必要以上に当該パウチ内の圧力が高まることがない。 By the way, since the retort pouch food described in Patent Document 1 described above is sealed by closing a zipper provided in the vicinity of the opening after the ingredients are put into the pouch, it is used together with a seasoning liquid (such as sauce or soup). The pressure in the pouch rises due to the steam generated when the utensil is cooked in a microwave oven or the like. Therefore, in this retort pouch food, a steam hole for releasing steam to the pouch is formed. Thereby, even if the pressure in the pouch is increased by the steam generated during cooking, the steam is released from the steam hole, so that the pressure in the pouch is not increased more than necessary.

しかしながら、前述した従来のレトルトパウチ食品は、パウチにジッパーや蒸気孔を設けなければならないためにその構造が複雑であり、製造が難しく、かつコストもかさむものとなっていた。 However, the conventional retort pouch food described above has a complicated structure because it must be provided with a zipper and a steam hole in the pouch, making it difficult to manufacture and increasing the cost.

本発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたもので、より簡素な構成で、開封された可撓性包装体に投入された具等の追加物をもともとの内容物ともに加熱調理することのできる可撓性包装体詰め製品を提供するものである。 The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and with a simpler configuration, it is possible to heat-cook the additional contents such as tools put into the opened flexible package together with the original contents. A flexible packaged product that can be made is provided.

本発明に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品は、内容物が可撓性包装体に詰められて密封されてなる可撓性包装体詰め製品であって、前記可撓性包装体は、第１包装体部分と、該第１包装体部分と連通し、当該第１包装体部分から分岐して続く第２包装体部分と第３包装体部分とを有し、前記第１包装体部分には、予め定めた開封位置から幅方向に切断して開封するように誘導する開封誘導部が形成され、前記第１包装体部分の前記開封位置と前記第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分との分岐位置との間の長さが、前記第２包装体部分の長さ及び前記第３包装体部分の長さのいずれよりも大きく、かつ、前記第２包装体部分の長さ及び前記第３包装体部分の長さの和より小さく設定され、前記第２包装体部分の長さが、前記第３包装体部分の長さより大きく設定された構成となる。
A flexible packaged product according to the present invention is a flexible packaged product in which contents are packed in a flexible package and sealed, and the flexible package is a first package. A first package body portion, a second package body portion communicating with the first package body portion and continuing from the first package body portion; and a third package body portion; An opening guiding portion for guiding the opening to be cut and opened in a width direction from a predetermined opening position, the opening position of the first package body portion, the second package body portion, and the third package body portion; Is longer than both the length of the second package part and the length of the third package part, and the length of the second package part and the length of the second package part. 3 is set smaller than the sum of the lengths of the package parts, and the length of the second package parts is greater than the length of the third package parts. The hear the configuration set.

このような構成により、第１包装体部分が開封誘導部に従って切られて開封された状態で、第１包装体部分の切り口部分の開口から投入した追加物を当該第１包装体部分に連通する第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分に詰めることができる。そして、第１包装体部分を前記第２包装体部分及び前記第３包装体部分のいずれか側に倒した状態で、好ましくは短い側に倒した状態で、これら第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分に詰められた追加部をもともとある内容物とともに電子レンジ等で加熱調理することができる。この加熱調理に際して発生した蒸気は、第１包装体部分の倒れによってその切り口部分から放出され難くなるものの、その倒れた第１包装体部分を押し広げてその切り口部分から放出される。 With such a configuration, the first package body portion communicated with the first package body portion when the first package body portion is cut and opened in accordance with the opening guide portion and is added from the opening of the cut portion of the first package body portion. The second package part and the third package part can be packed. And in the state which fell down the 1st package part to either the said 2nd package part and the said 3rd package part, Preferably in the state brought down to the short side, these 2nd package parts and 3rd The additional part packed in the package part can be cooked with a microwave oven or the like together with the original contents. Although the steam generated during the cooking is difficult to be released from the cut portion due to the fall of the first package portion, the first package portion that has fallen down is spread and released from the cut portion.

前記第１包装体部分の前記開封位置と前記第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分との分岐位置との間の長さが、前記第２包装体部分の長さ及び前記第３包装体部分の長さのいずれよりも大きいので、第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分それぞれが追加物を有効に詰めることのできる程度の長さであれば、第１包装体部分は、倒れるのに十分な長さになり得る。また、前記第１包装体部分の前記開封位置と前記第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分との分岐位置との間の長さが、前記第２包装体部分の長さ及び前記第３包装体部分の長さの和より小さくなるように、第１包装体部分に連通する第２包装体部分の長さ及び第３包装体部分の長さが設定されるので、当該第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分は、追加物を詰め込むために十分な大きさ（長さ）となり得る。
The length between the opening position of the first package part and the branching position of the second package part and the third package part is the length of the second package part and the third package. Since it is larger than any of the lengths of the parts, the first package part will collapse if the second package part and the third package part are long enough to be able to effectively pack additionals. Can be long enough. Further, the length between the opening position of the first package part and the branch position of the second package part and the third package part is the length of the second package part and the third part. Since the length of the second package part and the length of the third package part communicating with the first package part are set so as to be smaller than the sum of the lengths of the package parts, the second package body is set. The part and the third package part may be large enough (length) to be packed with additionals.

そして、第１包装体部分に連通する第２包装体部分により多くの追加物が詰まり得るので、第１包装体部分は、第２包装体部分により多く詰まった追加物の影響にて、より短い第３包装体部分側に倒れやすく、加熱調理中に、第２包装体部分側に戻り難くなり得る。 And since many additional substances can be clogged by the 2nd package part connected to the 1st package part, the 1st package part is shorter under the influence of the additive which was much packed in the 2nd package part. It is easy to fall down to the 3rd package part side, and during cooking, it may become difficult to return to the 2nd package part side .

更に、本発明に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品において、前記第１包装体部分は、前記第２包装体部分に続く第１シートと、前記第３包装体部分に続く第２シートにて形成され、前記第１シートをたるませて折り返した折り返し部を有する構成とすることができる。 Furthermore, in the flexible packaged product according to the present invention, the first package part is formed by a first sheet following the second package part and a second sheet following the third package part. In addition, the first sheet can be configured to have a folded portion that is folded and folded.

このような構成により、第３包装体部分より長い第２包装体部分に続く第１包装体部分の第１シートに折り返し部が形成されたので、加熱調理に際して、第２包装体部分により多く詰まった追加物の影響とともに、膨張する折り返し部によって、第３包装体部分側に倒された第１包装体部分が、第２包装体部分側に戻り難くなり得る。 With such a configuration, since the folded portion is formed on the first sheet of the first package part following the second package part that is longer than the third package part, the second package part is more clogged during cooking. In addition to the influence of the additional material, the first package body part that is tilted to the third package body part side may be difficult to return to the second package body part side by the folded-back portion that expands.

本発明に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品によれば、開封誘導部に従って切られて開封された第１包装体部分を前記第２包装体部分及び前記第３包装体部分のいずれか側に倒した状態で、これら第２包装体部分及び第３包装体部分に詰められた追加部をもともとある内容物とともに電子レンジ等で加熱調理することができるようになるので、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、より簡素な構成で、開封された可撓性包装体に投入された追加物をもともとの内容物とともに加熱調理することができるようになる。 According to the flexible packaged product according to the present invention, the first package part cut and opened according to the opening guide part is tilted to either the second package part or the third package part. In such a state, since the additional portion packed in the second package portion and the third package portion can be cooked in a microwave oven or the like together with the original contents, Without providing a steam hole, it becomes possible to heat-cook the additional material put into the opened flexible package together with the original contents with a simpler configuration.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について図面を用いて説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

本発明の第１の実施の形態に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品は、図１に示すように構成される。この可撓性包装体詰め製品は、パウチ（可撓性包装体）にタレや汁等の調味液を詰めて密封したレトルト食品である。 The flexible packaged product according to the first embodiment of the present invention is configured as shown in FIG. This flexible packaged product is a retort food in which a pouch (flexible package) is sealed with a seasoning liquid such as sauce or juice.

図１に示すレトルトパウチ食品１０に用いられるパウチ１００は、多層樹脂製で矩形形状の第１シート１１、第２シート１２及び第３シート１３の周囲部分をヒートシール加工して袋状に形成されている。具体的には、図１とともに図２に示すように、第１シート１１及び第２シート１２の周囲部分をその一部を残してヒートシールして貼り付けるとともに、第１シート１１の残り部分及び第２シート１２の残り部分のそれぞれの周囲部分と第３シート１３の周囲部分とをヒートシール加工して貼り付けることにより、第１パウチ部分１１０（第１包装体部分）と、第１パウチ部分１１０と連通し、該第１パウチ部分１１０から分岐して続く第２パウチ部分１２０（第２包装体部分）と第３パウチ部分１３０（第３包装体部分）とから構成されるパウチ１００が形成される。 A pouch 100 used for the retort pouch food 10 shown in FIG. 1 is formed into a bag shape by heat-sealing the surrounding portions of the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12, and the third sheet 13 made of multilayer resin and having a rectangular shape. ing. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2 together with FIG. 1, the peripheral portions of the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12 are heat-sealed and pasted while leaving a part thereof, and the remaining portions of the first sheet 11 and A first pouch portion 110 (first packaging body portion) and a first pouch portion are obtained by heat-sealing and pasting each peripheral portion of the remaining portion of the second sheet 12 and the peripheral portion of the third sheet 13. 110 is formed, and a pouch 100 is formed that includes a second pouch portion 120 (second package portion) and a third pouch portion 130 (third package portion) that branch from the first pouch portion 110 and continue. Is done.

前述した各シート１１、１２、１３の周囲部分のヒートシール加工により、第１パウチ部分１１０の分岐部分１４を除く三方の周囲部分には、第１シート１１及び第２シート１２の縦シール部１５４、１５５及び横シール部１５６が形成され、第２パウチ部分１２０の分岐部分１４を除く三方の周囲部分には、第１シート１１及び第３シート１３の縦シール部１５２、１５３及び横シール部１５１が形成され、第３パウチ部分１３０の分岐部分１４を除く三方の周囲部分には、第２シート１２及び第３シート１３の縦シール部１５８、１５９及び横シール部１５７が形成されている。更に、第２パウチ部分１２０には、縦シール部１５２の第１パウチ部分１１０の縦シール部１５４に続く端部と横シール部１５１の所定部位との間に斜めなる傾斜シール部１６１と、縦シール部１５３の第１パウチ部分１１０の縦シール部１５５に続く端部と横シール部１５１の所定部位との間に斜めになる傾斜シール部１６２が形成されている。なお、図示は省略するが、第３パウチ部分１３０にも、第２パウチ部分１２０と同様に、２つの傾斜シール部が形成されている。 By the heat sealing process of the peripheral portions of the respective sheets 11, 12, 13 described above, the vertical seal portions 154 of the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12 are formed on the three peripheral portions excluding the branch portion 14 of the first pouch portion 110. 155 and a lateral seal portion 156 are formed, and the longitudinal seal portions 152 and 153 and the lateral seal portion 151 of the first sheet 11 and the third sheet 13 are formed in three peripheral portions excluding the branching portion 14 of the second pouch portion 120. The vertical seal portions 158 and 159 and the horizontal seal portion 157 of the second sheet 12 and the third sheet 13 are formed on the three peripheral portions excluding the branching portion 14 of the third pouch portion 130. Further, the second pouch portion 120 includes an inclined seal portion 161 that is inclined between the end portion of the first pouch portion 110 of the vertical seal portion 152 that follows the vertical seal portion 154 and a predetermined portion of the horizontal seal portion 151, and a vertical seal portion 161. An inclined seal portion 162 that is inclined is formed between an end portion of the first pouch portion 110 of the seal portion 153 that follows the vertical seal portion 155 and a predetermined portion of the horizontal seal portion 151. Although illustration is omitted, the third pouch portion 130 is also formed with two inclined seal portions in the same manner as the second pouch portion 120.

第１パウチ部分１１０の縦シール部１５４及び１５５それぞれの横シール部１５６に近い所定位置には切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂが形成されている。これら切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂは、この部分から第１パウチ部分１１０を横シール部１５６に沿った幅方向に開封するように誘導する開封誘導部であって、いずれかの切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂから幅方向（破線Ａ参照）に切り裂くことにより第１パウチ部分１１０（パウチ１１０）を開封することができる。 Cutout portions 17a and 17b are formed at predetermined positions near the horizontal seal portions 156 of the vertical seal portions 154 and 155 of the first pouch portion 110, respectively. These cutout portions 17a and 17b are opening guide portions that guide the first pouch portion 110 from this portion so as to open in the width direction along the lateral seal portion 156, and any one of the cutout portions 17a and 17b. The first pouch portion 110 (pouch 110) can be opened by tearing in the width direction (see broken line A).

このレトルトパウチ食品１０は、第２パウチ部分１２０と第３パウチ部分１３０とを分岐部分１４を境にして広げることにより、図３に示すように、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０が広がって第１パウチ部分１１０が起立した状態にすることができる。また、第１パウチ部分１１０の切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂが形成された位置（開封位置：図１の破線Ａ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａは、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃのいずれよりも大きく（ａ＞ｂ、ａ＞ｃ）、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃとの和よりも小さく（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）設定されている。なお、このパウチ１００における第２パウチ部分の長さｂと第３パウチ部分の長さｃとは同じに設定されている。 In this retort pouch food product 10, the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are expanded as shown in FIG. 3 by spreading the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 with the branch portion 14 as a boundary. The first pouch portion 110 can stand up and spread. In addition, the position a where the notches 17a and 17b of the first pouch portion 110 are formed (opening position: see the broken line A in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branch position 14 are the length b of the second pouch portion 120. And larger than any of the lengths c of the third pouch portion 130 (a> b, a> c) and smaller than the sum of the length b of the second pouch portion 120 and the length c of the third pouch portion 130. (A <b + c) is set. Note that the length b of the second pouch portion and the length c of the third pouch portion in the pouch 100 are set to be the same.

前述したパウチ１００に調味液等の内容物Ｎを詰めて密封したレトルトパウチ食品１０は、次のようにして利用される。 The retort pouch food 10 in which the aforementioned pouch 100 is filled with the contents N such as the seasoning liquid and sealed is used as follows.

第１パウチ部分１１０が、縦シール部１５４及び１５５に形成された切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂのいずれかから幅方向に切り裂かれ、図３に示すように、開封される。これにより、レトルトパウチ食品１０は、分岐部分１４から左右に広がる第２パウチ部分１２０と第３パウチ部分１３０とに内容物Ｎが入り込み、切り裂き位置より上方部分が切り落とされて、先端縁部分に開口１７０の形成された第１パウチ部分１１０が起立した状態となる。この状態で、図４に示すように、第１パウチ部分１１０の開口１７０から肉塊等の具（追加物Ｓ）が投入される。そして、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０において、もともとあった調味液等の内容物Ｎと新たに投入された具等の追加物Ｓとが、例えば、第１パウチ部分１１０を持って振ることにより、図５に示すように、混ぜ合わされる。このとき、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０に傾斜シール部１６１、１６２（図１、図３参照）が形成されているので、調味液等の内容物Ｎは、塊となる追加物Ｓがいき難い第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の角部分にはまわらなくなるので、液状の内容物Ｎと塊となる追加物Ｓとが有効に絡み合うようになり得る。 The first pouch portion 110 is torn in the width direction from one of the notches 17a and 17b formed in the vertical seal portions 154 and 155, and is opened as shown in FIG. As a result, the retort pouch food 10 enters the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 that extend from the branch portion 14 to the left and right, and the upper portion is cut off from the tearing position to open the tip edge portion. The first pouch portion 110 formed with 170 is in an upright state. In this state, as shown in FIG. 4, a tool such as a meat lump (additional material S) is introduced from the opening 170 of the first pouch portion 110. And in the 2nd pouch part 120 and the 3rd pouch part 130, the contents N, such as the original seasoning liquid, and the additional material S, such as a newly added ingredient, have the first pouch part 110, for example. By shaking, they are mixed as shown in FIG. At this time, since the inclined seal portions 161 and 162 (see FIGS. 1 and 3) are formed on the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130, the contents N such as the seasoning liquid are additional items that become lumps. Since the corners of the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 where S is difficult to reach are not covered, the liquid content N and the additional material S that becomes a lump can be effectively entangled.

次いで、起立した第１パウチ部分１１０の切り口部分の第１シート１１及び第２シート１２を合わせて開口１７０を閉じた状態にして、第１パウチ部分１１０が図６に示すように、例えば、第３パウチ部分１３０側に倒される。この状態で、電子レンジ等によって第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０内で混ざった内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓが加熱調理される。このとき、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の内部で発生する蒸気は、第１シート１１と第２シート１２とが合わせられて倒された第１パウチ部分１１０内を通過し難く、また、下方を向いた開口１７０から出難い。しかし、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の内部の圧力がある程度高くなると、その内部で発生した蒸気は、倒された状態の第１パウチ部分１１０の第１シート１１及び第２シート１２を押し広げて通過して下方を向いた開口１７０から放出される。これにより、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の内部は適度な温度及び圧力に保持されて、混ざった状態の内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとが有効に加熱調理される。 Next, the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12 at the cut end portion of the first pouch part 110 standing up are put together and the opening 170 is closed, and the first pouch part 110 is, for example, as shown in FIG. Tilt down to the 3 pouch portion 130 side. In this state, the contents N and the additive S mixed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are cooked by a microwave oven or the like. At this time, the steam generated inside the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 is unlikely to pass through the first pouch portion 110 that has been brought down by combining the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12, Further, it is difficult to exit from the opening 170 facing downward. However, when the pressure inside the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 increases to some extent, the steam generated inside the first pouch portion 110 and the second sheet 12 of the first pouch portion 110 in a collapsed state. Is released from the opening 170 facing downward. Thereby, the inside of the 2nd pouch part 120 and the 3rd pouch part 130 is hold | maintained to moderate temperature and pressure, and the mixed content N and the additional material S are cooked effectively.

このような本発明の第１の実施の形態に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品としてのレトルトパウチ食品１０によれば、第１パウチ部分１１０を切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂのいずれかから切断して第１パウチ部分１１０を開封し、その第１パウチ部分１１０から追加物Ｓを投入した後に第１パウチ部分１１０を第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０のいずれか側に倒した状態で、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の内部で混ざった内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓを加熱調理することができるようになる。従って、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、簡素な構成で、開封されたパウチ１００内に投入された追加物Ｓをもともとの内容物Ｎとともに電子レンジ等によって加熱調理することができるようになる。 According to such a retort pouch food product 10 as a flexible packaged product according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the first pouch portion 110 is cut from one of the cutout portions 17a and 17b. In a state where the first pouch part 110 is opened and the first pouch part 110 is tilted to one side of the second pouch part 120 and the third pouch part 130 after adding the additional material S from the first pouch part 110, The contents N and the additive S mixed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 can be cooked. Therefore, as in the prior art, without adding a zipper or a steam hole, it is possible to cook the additive S put in the opened pouch 100 together with the original contents N by a microwave oven or the like with a simple configuration. become able to.

特に、第１パウチ部分１１０の切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂが形成された位置（開封位置：図１の破線Ａ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａが、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃのいずれより大きく（ａ＞ｂ、ａ＞ｃ）設定されているので、第１パウチ部分１１０は、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０側に倒すのに十分な長さになる。そして、その第１パウチ部分１１０を倒すことによって、内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとが混ざった状態で詰められた第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の密封性を比較的高く保持することができるようになる。また、第１パウチ部分１１０の切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂが形成された位置（開封位置：図１の破線Ａ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａが、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃとの和よりも小さく（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）設定されているので、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０は、追加物Ｓを詰め込むために十分な大きさ（長さ）となり得る。 In particular, the position where the notches 17a and 17b of the first pouch part 110 are formed (opening position: see the broken line A in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branch position 14 are the length b of the second pouch part 120. And the length p of the third pouch part 130 is set to be larger than any of the lengths c (a> b, a> c), so that the first pouch part 110 is tilted toward the second pouch part 120 and the third pouch part 130. It will be long enough. And the sealing performance of the 2nd pouch part 120 and the 3rd pouch part 130 with which the contents N and the additional material S were mixed by holding down the 1st pouch part 110 is kept comparatively high. Will be able to. Further, the position where the notches 17a and 17b of the first pouch portion 110 are formed (opening position: see the broken line A in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branch position 14 are the length b of the second pouch portion 120. And the length c of the third pouch portion 130 is set to be smaller (a <b + c), so that the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are large enough to pack the additive S. (Length).

なお、前述した例では、第１パウチ部分１１０を第３パウチ部分１３０側に倒すようにしたが、第１パウチ部分１１０を第２パウチ部分１２０側に倒しても同様の作用、効果が得られることは勿論である。 In the above-described example, the first pouch portion 110 is tilted toward the third pouch portion 130, but the same action and effect can be obtained even when the first pouch portion 110 is tilted toward the second pouch portion 120. Of course.

次に、本発明の第２の実施の形態に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品について図７〜図９を参照して説明する。この可撓性包装体詰め製品も、パウチ（可撓性包装体）に予め調味液等の内容物を詰めて密封してなるレトルトパウチ食品である。図７〜図９において、図１に示す部分と同じ部分については同じ参照番号が付されている。 Next, a flexible packaged product according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This flexible packaged product is also a retort pouch food product in which a pouch (flexible package) is preliminarily filled with contents such as seasoning liquid and sealed. 7 to 9, the same reference numerals are given to the same portions as those shown in FIG.

このレトルトパウチ食品に用いられるパウチは、図７に示すように構成される。図７において、このパウチ１００では、本発明の第１の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０の場合とは異なり、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌと第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓとの長さが異なる。具体的には、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さが第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さより大きい。ただし、第１パウチ部分１１０の切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂが形成された位置（開封位置：図１の破線Ａ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａが、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃのいずれよりも大きく（ａ＞ｂ＞ｃ）、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃとの和よりも小さい（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）という関係は維持されている。 The pouch used for this retort pouch food is configured as shown in FIG. In FIG. 7, in this pouch 100, the lengths of the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S are different from the case of the retort pouch food product 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the length of the second pouch portion 120L is larger than the length of the third pouch portion 130S. However, the position where the notches 17a and 17b of the first pouch part 110 are formed (opening position: see broken line A in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branching position 14 are the length b of the second pouch part 120L. And the length p of the third pouch portion 130S is larger than any of the lengths c (a> b> c), and is smaller than the sum of the length b of the second pouch portion 120L and the length c of the third pouch portion 130S (a The relationship <b + c) is maintained.

このような構造のパウチ１００を用いたレトルトパウチ食品１０では、第１パウチ部分１１０を開封して追加物Ｓを投入すると、図８に示すように、比較的長い第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌにより多くの追加物Ｓが詰め込まれるようになる。すると、第１パウチ部分１１０を、図９に示すように、第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓ側に倒すと、比較的大きな容積の第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌに詰め込まれたより多くの追加物Ｓによって倒された状態の第１パウチ部分１１０が起き上がり難くなる。このため、図９に示すように第１パウチ部分１１０を倒した状態で、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓに詰められた内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓを電子レンジ等で加熱調理すると、その際に、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの内部で発生した蒸気が、倒された状態の第１パウチ部分１１０を益々押し広げ難くなるので、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの内部を比較的高い温度及び圧力に保持することができる。その結果、混ざった内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとを更に有効に加熱調理することができようになる。 In the retort pouch food 10 using the pouch 100 having such a structure, when the first pouch portion 110 is opened and the additional material S is introduced, as shown in FIG. Additive S comes to be packed. Then, as shown in FIG. 9, when the first pouch portion 110 is tilted toward the third pouch portion 130S, the first pouch portion 110 is tilted by a larger amount of the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120L having a relatively large volume. The first pouch portion 110 becomes difficult to get up. For this reason, when cooking the contents N and the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S in a state where the first pouch portion 110 is turned down as shown in FIG. At this time, the steam generated in the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S becomes more difficult to spread the first pouch portion 110 in the collapsed state, so that the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 120L The inside of the pouch portion 130S can be maintained at a relatively high temperature and pressure. As a result, the mixed contents N and additional material S can be cooked more effectively.

この本発明の第２の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０においても、第１の実施の形態の場合と同様に、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、より簡素な構成で、開封されたパウチに投入された追加物Ｓをもともとの内容物Ｎとともに加熱調理することができるようになることは勿論である。 In the retort pouch food product 10 according to the second embodiment of the present invention, as in the case of the first embodiment, a zipper or a steam hole is not provided and a simpler configuration is used. It goes without saying that the additional material S put in the opened pouch can be cooked together with the original content N.

本発明の第３の実施の形態に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品について図１０〜図１２を参照して説明する。この可撓性包装体詰め製品も、パウチ（可撓性包装体）に予め調味液等の内容物を詰めて密封してなるレトルトパウチ食品である。図１０〜図１２において、図１に示す部分と同じ部分については同じ参照番号が付されている。 A flexible packaged product according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This flexible packaged product is also a retort pouch food product in which a pouch (flexible package) is preliminarily filled with contents such as seasoning liquid and sealed. 10 to 12, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those shown in FIG. 1.

このレトルトパウチ食品に用いられるパウチは、図１０に示すように構成される。図１０において、このパウチ１００は、図２に示す第１の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０の場合と同様に、第１パウチ部分１１０（第１シート１１及び第２シート１２）と、第１パウチ部分１１０と連通し、該第１パウチ部分１１０から分岐して続く第２パウチ部分１２０（第１シート１１及び第３シート１３）と第３パウチ部分１３０（第２シート１２及び第３シート１３）とから構成されている。更に、第１パウチ部分１１０の第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０との分岐部分１４に近い所定部位に、第１シート１１をたるませて折り返した折り返し部１１１が形成されている。なお、この場合も、第１パウチ部分１１０の開封位置（図１に示す切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａは、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃのいずれよりも大きく（ａ＞ｂ、ａ＞ｃ）、かつ、第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０の長さｃとの和よりも小さい（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）。 The pouch used for this retort pouch food is configured as shown in FIG. 10, this pouch 100 includes a first pouch portion 110 (first sheet 11 and second sheet 12), a first pouch portion 110, as in the case of the retort pouch food 10 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. The second pouch portion 120 (the first sheet 11 and the third sheet 13) and the third pouch portion 130 (the second sheet 12 and the third sheet) which communicate with the first pouch portion 110 and branch off from the first pouch portion 110 continue. 13). Further, a folded portion 111 is formed in which the first sheet 11 is folded and folded at a predetermined portion near the branch portion 14 between the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 of the first pouch portion 110. Also in this case, the opening position of the first pouch portion 110 (see the notches 17a and 17b shown in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branching position 14 are the length b and the third length of the second pouch portion 120. It is larger than any of the lengths c of the pouch portion 130 (a> b, a> c) and smaller than the sum of the length b of the second pouch portion 120 and the length c of the third pouch portion 130 ( a <b + c).

このようなパウチ１００を用いたレトルトパウチ食品１０では、図１１に示すように、第１パウチ部分１１０が開封された後に、その第１パウチ部分１１０の開口１７０から追加物Ｓが投入され、第１の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品の場合と同様に、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０において内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとが混ぜ合わされる。そして、第１パウチ部分１１０が、折り返し部１１１が外側になるように、第３パウチ部分１３０側に倒される。この状態で、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０に詰められた内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓが電子レンジ等で加熱調理される。その際、図１２に示すように、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０内にて発生して第１パウチ部分１１０を通過する蒸気の圧力によって、倒れた第１パウチ部分１１０の根元付近にある折り返し部１１１が膨張して、倒れた第１パウチ部分１１０の外側のシート、即ち、第１シート１１が大きく伸びる。 In the retort pouch food 10 using such a pouch 100, as shown in FIG. 11, after the first pouch portion 110 is opened, the additional material S is introduced from the opening 170 of the first pouch portion 110, and the first pouch portion 110 is opened. As in the case of the retort pouch food according to the first embodiment, the contents N and the additive S are mixed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130. Then, the first pouch portion 110 is tilted to the third pouch portion 130 side so that the folded portion 111 is on the outside. In this state, the content N and the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are cooked in a microwave oven or the like. At that time, as shown in FIG. 12, the vicinity of the root of the first pouch portion 110 that has fallen due to the pressure of the steam generated in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 and passing through the first pouch portion 110. The folded portion 111 is expanded, and the sheet outside the collapsed first pouch portion 110, that is, the first sheet 11 is greatly extended.

このような本発明の第３の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０では、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０に詰められた内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓが加熱料理される際に、第３パウチ部分１３０側に倒れた第１パウチ部分１１０の外側のシートが大きく伸びて、倒された状態の第１パウチ部分１１０が起き上がり難くなるので、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０の内部を比較的高い温度及び圧力に保持することができる。その結果、第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０内において混ざった内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとを更に有効に加熱調理することができようになる。 In such a retort pouch food product 10 according to the third embodiment of the present invention, when the contents N and the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are cooked, Since the sheet outside the first pouch portion 110 that has fallen toward the third pouch portion 130 is greatly stretched and the first pouch portion 110 in the tilted state is difficult to rise, the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 are not easily raised. Can be maintained at a relatively high temperature and pressure. As a result, the contents N and the additive S mixed in the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 can be cooked more effectively.

なお、この本発明の第３の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０においても、第１の実施の形態の場合と同様に、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、より簡素な構成で、開封されたパウチに投入された追加物Ｓをもともとの内容物Ｎとともに加熱調理することができるようになることは勿論である。 In addition, in the retort pouch food 10 according to the third embodiment of the present invention, as in the case of the first embodiment, it is simpler without providing a zipper or a steam hole as in the prior art. Of course, it becomes possible to heat-cook the additional material S put into the opened pouch together with the original content N.

本発明の第４の実施の形態に係る可撓性包装体詰め製品としてのレトルトパウチ食品に用いられるパウチ１００は、図１３に示すように構成される。 A pouch 100 used for a retort pouch food product as a flexible packaged product according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention is configured as shown in FIG.

このパウチ１００は、図７〜図９に示す第２の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品の場合と同様に、第１パウチ部分１１０から分岐して連続する第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さが第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さより大きい。更に、このパウチ１００は、図１０〜図１２に示す第３の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品の場合と同様に、第１パウチ部分１１０の第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓとの分岐部分１４に近い所定部位に、第１シート１１をたるませて折り返した折り返し部１１１が形成されている。なお、この場合も、第１パウチ部分１１０の開封位置（図１に示す切欠き部１７ａ、１７ｂ参照）と分岐位置１４までの長さａは、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃのいずれよりも大きく（ａ＞ｂ＞ｃ）、かつ、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃとの和よりも小さい（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）。 In this pouch 100, as in the case of the retort pouch food according to the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the length of the second pouch part 120L branched from the first pouch part 110 and continuing is the first. It is larger than the length of the 3-pouch portion 130S. Furthermore, this pouch 100 is similar to the case of the retort pouch food according to the third embodiment shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, with the second pouch portion 120 </ b> L and the third pouch portion 130 </ b> S of the first pouch portion 110. A folded portion 111 is formed at a predetermined portion near the branching portion 14 by folding the first sheet 11 back. Also in this case, the opening position of the first pouch portion 110 (see the notches 17a and 17b shown in FIG. 1) and the length a to the branching position 14 are the length b and the third length of the second pouch portion 120L. It is larger than any of the lengths c of the pouch portion 130S (a> b> c) and smaller than the sum of the length b of the second pouch portion 120L and the length c of the third pouch portion 130S (a < b + c).

このようなパウチ１００を用いたレトルトパウチ食品１０では、第１パウチ部分１１０を開封して追加物Ｓを投入した後に、第１パウチ部分１１０が、折り返し部１１１が外側になるように、第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓ側に倒される。この状態で、比較的大きな容量の第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌに詰め込まれたより多くの追加物Ｓによって、折り返し部１１１を外側にして倒された第１パウチ部分１１０が起き上がり難くなる。このように第１パウチ部分が倒れた状態で第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓに詰められた内容物Ｎ及び追加物Ｓが電子レンジで加熱調理されると、その際に、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓ内にて発生して第１パウチ部分１１０を通過する蒸気の圧力によって、倒れた第１パウチ部分１１０の根元付近にある折り返し部１１１が膨張して、倒れた第１パウチ部分１１０の外側のシート、即ち、第１シート１１が大きく伸び、倒された状態の第１パウチ部分１１０が更に起き上がり難くなる。従って、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの内部を比較的高い温度及び圧力に保持することができ、その結果、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓ内において混ざった内容物Ｎと追加物Ｓとを更に有効に加熱調理することができようになる。 In the retort pouch food 10 using such a pouch 100, after the first pouch portion 110 is opened and the additional material S is added, the first pouch portion 110 is placed so that the folded portion 111 is outside. Tilt down to the pouch portion 130S side. In this state, it is difficult for the first pouch portion 110, which has been turned down with the folded-back portion 111 outside, to rise due to a larger amount of the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120L having a relatively large capacity. When the contents N and the additional material S packed in the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S are cooked in the microwave oven in a state where the first pouch portion is collapsed in this manner, Due to the pressure of the steam generated in the pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S and passing through the first pouch portion 110, the folded portion 111 in the vicinity of the base of the collapsed first pouch portion 110 expanded and collapsed. The sheet on the outside of the first pouch portion 110, that is, the first sheet 11 is greatly stretched, and the first pouch portion 110 in a collapsed state is further unlikely to rise. Accordingly, the inside of the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S can be maintained at a relatively high temperature and pressure, and as a result, the mixed contents N in the second pouch portion 120L and the third pouch portion 130S. And the additional material S can be cooked more effectively.

なお、この本発明の第４の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０においても、第１の実施の形態の場合と同様に、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、より簡素な構成で、開封されたパウチに投入された追加物Ｓをもともとの内容物Ｎとともに加熱調理することができるようになることは勿論である。 In addition, in the retort pouch food 10 according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, as in the case of the first embodiment, it is simpler without providing a zipper or a steam hole as in the prior art. Of course, it becomes possible to heat-cook the additional material S put into the opened pouch together with the original content N.

第１パウチ部分１１０の根元付近に折り返し部１１が形成された第３の実施の形態及び第４の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０において、折り返し部１１は、加熱調理時の蒸気の圧力によって膨張し得るが、追加物Ｓを投入する際に押し広げるようにしてもよい。 In the retort pouch food 10 according to the third embodiment and the fourth embodiment in which the folded portion 11 is formed near the base of the first pouch portion 110, the folded portion 11 is caused by the pressure of steam during cooking. Although it may expand, it may be expanded when the additive S is introduced.

前述した第２の実施の形態及び第４の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０に用いられるパウチ１００（図７、図１３参照）では、第１パウチ部分１１０の開封位置と分岐位置１４までの長さａは、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂ及び第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃのいずれよりも大きく（ａ＞ｂ＞ｃ）、かつ、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃとの和よりも小さく（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）設定されたが、第１パウチ部分１１０の開封位置と前記分岐位置１４までの長さａは、長い第２パウチ部分１２０の長さｂより小さく（ａ＜ｂ）かつ短い第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃより大きく（ａ＞ｃ）、更に、第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌの長さｂと第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓの長さｃとの和よりも小さく（ａ＜ｂ＋ｃ）設定するようにしてもよい。 In the pouch 100 (see FIGS. 7 and 13) used in the retort pouch food 10 according to the second and fourth embodiments described above, the opening position and the branching position 14 of the first pouch portion 110 are reached. The length a is greater than both the length b of the second pouch portion 120L and the length c of the third pouch portion 130S (a> b> c), and the length b of the second pouch portion 120L Although it is set smaller than the sum of the length c of the three pouch portions 130S (a <b + c), the opening position of the first pouch portion 110 and the length a to the branch position 14 are longer than the length of the second pouch portion 120. Is shorter than the length b of the third pouch portion 130S (a <b) and larger than the length c of the short third pouch portion 130S (a> c), and the length b of the second pouch portion 120L and the length of the third pouch portion 130S. smaller than the sum of c (a <b c) may be set.

また、前述した第２の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０では、加熱調理の際に、第１パウチ部分１１０は、短い第３パウチ部分１３０Ｓ側に倒すようにしたが、長い第２パウチ部分１２０Ｌ側に倒すようにしてもよい。 Moreover, in the retort pouch food product 10 according to the second embodiment described above, the first pouch portion 110 is tilted to the short third pouch portion 130S side during cooking, but the long second pouch portion. You may make it fall to the 120L side.

前述した各レトルトパウチ食品１０に用いることのできるパウチの変形例について説明する。 The modification of the pouch which can be used for each retort pouch food 10 mentioned above is demonstrated.

図１４に示すパウチ１００ａは、矩形形状の第１パウチ部分１１０から続いて分岐する第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０のそれぞれの外形形状が円形の一部となって、その円弧状の周囲部分がシールされた構造となることを特徴としている。図１５に示すパウチ１００ｂは、矩形形状の第１パウチ部分１１０から続いて分岐する第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分１３０のそれぞれが、矩形形状であって、その内側部分がシール部１６３によって円形の一部となるように構成されていることを特徴としている。図１６に示すパウチ１００ｃは、矩形形状の第１パウチ部分１１０から続いて分岐する第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分のそれぞれの外形形状が台形となって、その台形の周囲部分にシール部１６４、１６５、１６６が形成された構造となることを特徴とする。図１７に示すパウチ１００ｄは、矩形形状の第１パウチ部分１１０から続いて分岐する第２パウチ部分１２０及び第３パウチ部分のそれぞれが、矩形形状であって、その内側部分がシール部１６７、１６８、１６９によって台形になるように構成されていること特徴としている。 In the pouch 100a shown in FIG. 14, the outer shape of each of the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 branched from the rectangular first pouch portion 110 is a part of a circular shape, and the arc shape of the pouch 100a shown in FIG. It is characterized in that the surrounding part is sealed. In the pouch 100b shown in FIG. 15, each of the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion 130 branched from the rectangular first pouch portion 110 has a rectangular shape, and an inner portion thereof is formed by a seal portion 163. It is configured to be a part of a circle. The pouch 100c shown in FIG. 16 has a trapezoidal outer shape of each of the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion that branches from the rectangular first pouch portion 110, and a seal portion is provided around the trapezoid. 164, 165, and 166 are formed. In the pouch 100d shown in FIG. 17, each of the second pouch portion 120 and the third pouch portion branched from the rectangular first pouch portion 110 has a rectangular shape, and the inner portions thereof have seal portions 167 and 168, respectively. , 169, it is configured to be trapezoidal.

前述したようなパウチの変形例のそれぞれを用いたレトルトパウチ食品によっても、前述した本発明の各実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品の場合と同様に、従来のように、ジッパーや蒸気孔を設けることなく、より簡素な構成で、開封されたパウチに投入された追加物Ｓをもともとの内容物Ｎとともに加熱調理することができるようになる。 As in the case of the retort pouch food according to each embodiment of the present invention described above, the zipper and the steam hole are provided also in the retort pouch food using each of the modified pouches as described above. Therefore, it becomes possible to heat-cook the additive S put in the opened pouch together with the original contents N with a simpler configuration.

なお、レトルトパウチ食品１０に用いることのできるパウチは、第１〜第４の実施の形態に係るレトルトパウチ食品１０に用いられたものや前述した変形例に限られるものではなく、例えば、第２シート１２と第３シート１３とを１枚のシートで構成し、そのシートをたるませることにより第３パウチ部分を形成するようにしてもよいし、第１、第３、第２シートの全体を１枚のシートで構成して、断面視でＷ字状に折り曲げてパウチを形成するようにしてもよい。このようにシートを折り曲げてパウチ部分を形成した場合、パウチ部分の横シール部分は不要となるが、補強などの目的で横シール部を形成してもよい。 In addition, the pouch which can be used for the retort pouch food 10 is not restricted to what was used for the retort pouch food 10 which concerns on 1st-4th embodiment, or the modification mentioned above, for example, it is 2nd The sheet 12 and the third sheet 13 may be configured as a single sheet, and the third pouch portion may be formed by sagging the sheet, or the entire first, third, and second sheets may be formed. The pouch may be formed by a single sheet and folded into a W shape in a cross-sectional view. When the pouch portion is formed by bending the sheet in this way, the horizontal seal portion of the pouch portion is not necessary, but the horizontal seal portion may be formed for the purpose of reinforcement or the like.
