Description

本発明は、包装容器、包装容器の製造方法および製造装置に関する。 The present invention, packaging containers, the method and apparatus for producing packaging containers.

従来、食品類の包装形態としては、容器本体の開口部周縁にフランジ部を設けた容器本体とフィルム状の蓋材を備える構成とし、食品類を容器本体の内部に収納した後、かかる容器本体のフランジ部と蓋材をヒートシールして密封包装した蓋付き容器が広く用いられている。
このような蓋付き容器は、容器の内部に収納される食品類を安全に保存するという観点から、容器本体に設けられたフランジ部と蓋材をヒートシールし、かかるヒートシールにより形成されたシール部を剥がれにくくするといった高い密封性が必要とされるとともに、蓋材を開封する場合にあっては、当該蓋材を容器本体から簡便に剥離可能とする、密封性と易開封性という相反する特性を同時に具備する必要があった。Conventionally, as a packaging form of foods, the container body is provided with a container body provided with a flange on the periphery of the opening of the container body and a film-like lid material, and after the food is stored in the container body, the container body Containers with lids that are hermetically sealed by heat-sealing the flange portions and lid materials are widely used.
Such a container with a lid is a seal formed by heat-sealing the flange portion provided on the container body and the lid material from the viewpoint of safely storing food stored in the container. When the lid is opened, the lid is easily peelable from the container body, and there is a contradiction between hermeticity and easy opening. It was necessary to have the characteristics at the same time.

このような包装容器では、開封前の密封性が重要である一方、開封時の易開封性も求められている。そこで、樹脂材質を変えるなどして容器本体のシール層のシール強度を制御し、蓋材と容器本体の界面を剥離する技術が一般的に知られている。
例えば、特許文献１には、多層容器本体の層間接着力をフランジ部と蓋材との接着力よりも小さくなるように構成し、フランジ部近傍の切り欠き部やヒートシール部の内側に環状の切断線を設けた易開封性容器が記載されている。
また、特許文献２には、フランジ面に傾斜突部を形成し、フランジと蓋材とをヒートシールした場合に傾斜突部が溶融延出して樹脂溜り片を形成し、蓋材の最内層が樹脂溜り片を覆った状態で非接着ないし弱接着状態で連結された容器が記載されている。In such a packaging container, sealability before opening is important, but easy-openability at the time of opening is also required. In view of this, a technique is generally known in which the sealing strength of the sealing layer of the container body is controlled by changing the resin material and the interface between the lid material and the container body is peeled off.
For example, in Patent Document 1, an interlayer adhesive force of a multilayer container body is configured to be smaller than an adhesive force between a flange portion and a lid member, and an annular shape is formed inside a notch portion or a heat seal portion near the flange portion. An easy-open container with a cutting line is described.

しかしながら、特許文献１に記載の易開封性容器は実用化されてはいるものの、切り欠き部や切断線を設置する工程やシール位置の精度など、技術の難易度が高く汎用性にかけるという問題があった。
また、特許文献２に記載の突起をフランジ部に安定して得ることおよびシールにより形成される樹脂溜まりを安定して得ることは困難であるとともに、容器の厚みも増すことからコストが増大するという問題があった。
さらに、特許文献３においても、シールによる樹脂溜まりを安定して得ることは難しく、シールの外周側に樹脂溜まりが形成されてしまうと易開封性に劣ってしまう。なお、シールの外周側に樹脂溜まりを形成しないようにすることは実質的に不可能であるため安定した易開封性を得ることはできない。
そして、特許文献４および５では、凸型シール盤で２回シールすることにより樹脂溜まりを形成しているが、このような方法では、安定して樹脂溜まりを形成することは実用的に困難であり、また、易開封性を確保するためにシールの外周側に樹脂溜まりを形成しないようにすることは不可能である。
以上のように、容器の高密封性および易開封性を安定して得られず品質にばらつきが生じたり、その製造工程が複雑であったり、汎用性に欠けるという問題があった。However, although the easy-open container described in Patent Document 1 has been put into practical use, there is a problem that the technical difficulty is high, such as the process of installing the notch and the cutting line, and the accuracy of the seal position, and it is subject to versatility. was there.
In addition, it is difficult to stably obtain the protrusions described in Patent Document 2 in the flange portion and to stably obtain a resin reservoir formed by sealing, and the cost increases because the thickness of the container increases. There was a problem.
Furthermore, even in Patent Document 3, it is difficult to stably obtain a resin reservoir due to the seal, and if a resin reservoir is formed on the outer peripheral side of the seal, the easy-openability is poor. In addition, since it is practically impossible to prevent a resin reservoir from being formed on the outer peripheral side of the seal, stable easy-openability cannot be obtained.
In Patent Documents 4 and 5, a resin reservoir is formed by sealing twice with a convex seal disc. However, in such a method, it is practically difficult to form a resin reservoir stably. In addition, it is impossible to prevent a resin reservoir from being formed on the outer peripheral side of the seal in order to ensure easy opening.
As described above, there has been a problem that the high sealability and easy-openability of the container cannot be stably obtained, the quality varies, the manufacturing process is complicated, and the versatility is lacking.

本発明の目的は、安定した易開封性および密封性を備え、簡単な工程で製造することのできる包装容器、包装容器の製造方法および製造装置を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide a stable easily openable and provided with a sealing property, packaging containers that can the be produced by a simple process, a manufacturing method of the packaging container and a manufacturing apparatus.

本発明の包装容器は、内容物が収納される凹部とこの凹部の開口部から延設されたフランジ部とを備えた容器本体と、前記開口部を塞ぐとともに前記フランジ部との間をシール部でシールされた蓋材と、を備え、前記容器本体は、少なくともシール層と基材層の２層からなる多層シートを有し、前記フランジ部は、前記開口部の周縁から前記開口部の面方向に対して斜め上方向に傾斜して延設される第１の傾斜部と、前記第１の傾斜部の周縁から前記開口部の面方向に対して斜め下方向に傾斜して延設され、前記第１の傾斜部との交差により頂角部を形成する、前記開口部の面方向に対して３０°以下の角度で傾斜している第２の傾斜部と、を有し、前記フランジ部の第２の傾斜部と前記蓋材とが前記シール部でシールされるとともに、前記蓋材と前記第１の傾斜部との間に樹脂溜まり部を有し、この樹脂溜まり部を介して前記蓋材と前記第１の傾斜部とが接着されることを特徴とする。 The packaging container according to the present invention includes a container body provided with a concave portion for storing contents and a flange portion extending from the opening of the concave portion, and a seal portion between the flange portion and the opening. The container body has a multilayer sheet composed of at least two layers of a sealing layer and a base material layer, and the flange portion faces the surface of the opening from the periphery of the opening. a first inclined portion that will be extended to be inclined obliquely upward with respect to the direction, extends inclined obliquely downward from a peripheral edge of the first inclined portion with respect to the plane direction of the opening A second inclined portion that forms an apex angle portion by intersecting with the first inclined portion and is inclined at an angle of 30 ° or less with respect to a surface direction of the opening, and the flange The second inclined part of the part and the lid member are sealed by the seal part, Has a resin reservoir between the the wood first inclined portion through the resin reservoir and the lid member and the first inclined portion, characterized in that it is bonded.

この発明では、容器本体のフランジ部が第１の傾斜部と第２の傾斜部とを有し、第１の傾斜部と第２の傾斜部との交差により頂角部が形成される。第１の傾斜部は、開口部の面方向に対して斜め上方向に傾斜しているため、フランジ部の第２の傾斜部に蓋材をヒートシールしたとき、第１の傾斜部と蓋材との間に形成される隙間に蓋材のシール層が溶融して樹脂溜まり部が形成され、この樹脂溜まり部を介して蓋材と第１の傾斜部とが接着される。すなわち、容器本体の第１の傾斜部の形状によって、通常のシール方法で、シール部の内周縁側にのみ樹脂溜まりを簡単に形成することができる。
このような樹脂溜まりが形成された包装容器は、高密封性に優れるとともに、シール部の開封開始側には樹脂溜まりが形成されないので易開封性を維持することができる。 In this invention, the flange part of a container main body has a 1st inclination part and a 2nd inclination part, and an apex angle part is formed by intersection of a 1st inclination part and a 2nd inclination part. Since the first inclined portion is inclined obliquely upward with respect to the surface direction of the opening, when the lid material is heat sealed to the second inclined portion of the flange portion, the first inclined portion and the lid material The sealing layer of the lid material is melted in the gap formed between the two and the resin reservoir portion is formed, and the lid member and the first inclined portion are bonded via the resin reservoir portion. That is, depending on the shape of the first inclined portion of the container body, the resin reservoir can be easily formed only on the inner peripheral edge side of the seal portion by a normal sealing method.
The packaging container in which such a resin reservoir is formed is excellent in high sealing performance, and can be easily opened because no resin reservoir is formed on the opening start side of the seal portion.

本発明の包装容器において、前記第１の傾斜部は、前記開口部の面方向に対して９０°未満の角度で傾斜していることが好ましい。 The packaging container of this invention WHEREIN: It is preferable that the said 1st inclination part inclines at an angle of less than 90 degrees with respect to the surface direction of the said opening part.

この発明では、第１の傾斜部が開口部の面方向に対して９０°未満の角度で傾斜している。これにより、フランジ部に蓋材をシールバーでヒートシールしたとき、第１の傾斜部と第２の傾斜部との交差により形成される頂角部がシールバーで押圧され、頂角部の角度が広がる方向、すなわち容器本体の外方へ向かってフランジ部が延出される。このとき、シールバーのシール面は、第２の傾斜部に沿ってシールされるため、蓋材と第１の傾斜部との間に樹脂溜まり部が形成されやすい。したがって、樹脂溜まりの形成にばらつきのない安定した包装容器を容易に製造することができる。 In the present invention, the first inclined portion is inclined at an angle of less than 9 0 ° with respect to the plane direction of the opening. Thereby, when the lid material is heat-sealed to the flange portion with the seal bar, the apex angle portion formed by the intersection of the first inclined portion and the second inclined portion is pressed by the seal bar, and the angle of the apex angle portion The flange portion extends in a direction in which the flange extends, that is, outward of the container body. At this time, since the seal surface of the seal bar is sealed along the second inclined portion, a resin pool portion is easily formed between the lid member and the first inclined portion. Therefore, a stable packaging container having no variation in the formation of the resin reservoir can be easily manufactured.

本発明の包装容器において、前記第１の傾斜部は、前記開口部の面方向に対して１５°以上かつ８０°以下の角度で傾斜していることが好ましい。
また、前記第２の傾斜部は、前記開口部の面方向に対して５°以上かつ３０°以下の角度で傾斜していることが好ましい。 The packaging container of this invention WHEREIN: It is preferable that the said 1st inclination part inclines at an angle of 15 degrees or more and 80 degrees or less with respect to the surface direction of the said opening part.
Moreover, it is preferable that the said 2nd inclination part inclines at an angle of 5 degrees or more and 30 degrees or less with respect to the surface direction of the said opening part.

この発明では、第１の傾斜部が前記開口部の面方向に対して１５°以上かつ８０°以下の角度で傾斜しているので、蓋材をフランジ部に載置したときに蓋材と第１の傾斜部との間に隙間ができやすく、樹脂溜まりが形成されやすい。
また、第２の傾斜部が前記開口部の面方向に対して５°以上かつ３０°以下の角度で傾斜しているので、蓋材をフランジ部に載置してヒートシールしたときに、蓋材と第２の傾斜部との間にシール部が安定して形成される。
以上のように、フランジ部の内周側にのみ樹脂溜まりを安定して形成することができるので、品質にばらつきのない包装容器を容易に製造することができる。In the present invention, since the first inclined portion is inclined at an angle of 15 ° or more and 80 ° or less with respect to the surface direction of the opening, the lid member and the first member are placed when the lid member is placed on the flange portion. A gap is easily formed between the first inclined portion and the resin reservoir.
In addition, since the second inclined portion is inclined at an angle of 5 ° or more and 30 ° or less with respect to the surface direction of the opening portion, the lid member is placed on the flange portion and heat-sealed. A seal portion is stably formed between the material and the second inclined portion.
As described above, since the resin reservoir can be stably formed only on the inner peripheral side of the flange portion, a packaging container having no variation in quality can be easily manufactured.

本発明の包装容器において、前記開口部の面方向に対する前記第１の傾斜部の傾斜角度Ａおよび前記第２の傾斜部の傾斜角度Ｂは、Ａ≧Ｂの関係を満たすことが好ましい。 The packaging container of this invention WHEREIN: It is preferable that the inclination angle A of the said 1st inclination part with respect to the surface direction of the said opening part and the inclination angle B of the said 2nd inclination part satisfy | fill the relationship of A> = B.

この発明では、第１の傾斜部の傾斜角度Ａは第２の傾斜部の傾斜角度Ｂ以上の角度を有している。これにより、前述のようにシールバーでヒートシールした場合に、シールバーのシール面が第２の傾斜部に沿いやすいので、より蓋材と第１の傾斜部との間に樹脂溜まり部が形成されやすい。したがって、シール部の内周縁側に樹脂溜まり部を確実に形成することができるので、より安定した包装容器を提供することができる。   In the present invention, the inclination angle A of the first inclined portion is greater than or equal to the inclination angle B of the second inclined portion. As a result, when heat sealing is performed with the seal bar as described above, the seal surface of the seal bar is likely to follow the second inclined portion, so that a resin pool portion is further formed between the lid member and the first inclined portion. Easy to be. Therefore, since the resin reservoir can be reliably formed on the inner peripheral edge side of the seal portion, a more stable packaging container can be provided.

本発明の包装容器において、前記樹脂溜まり部は、断面烏口形状であることが好ましい。
この発明では、樹脂溜まり部は、断面烏口形状に形成される。このような形状であれば、蓋材と第１の傾斜部との間に垂れた樹脂溜まりに内圧がかかるため、より高密封性に優れる。また、開封する際には樹脂溜まり部が開封を妨げない。したがって、易開封性を維持することができる。The packaging container of this invention WHEREIN: It is preferable that the said resin reservoir part is a cross-sectional mouth shape.
In the present invention, the resin reservoir is formed in a cross-sectional shape. With such a shape, since the internal pressure is applied to the resin reservoir drooped between the lid member and the first inclined portion, the sealing performance is more excellent. Further, when opening, the resin reservoir does not prevent the opening. Therefore, easy-openability can be maintained.

本発明の包装容器において、前記樹脂溜まり部は、前記容器本体の前記頂角部の樹脂をせり出させた形状であることが好ましい。
この発明では、第１の傾斜部が開口部の面方向に対して４０°以上かつ８０°以下の傾斜角度で蓋材をフランジ部に載置してヒートシールした場合には、樹脂溜まり部は、蓋材と第１の傾斜部との間に容器側の頂角部の樹脂がせり出した樹脂せり出し部を有する形状とすることができる。
樹脂せり出し部は、容器内に内容物を満杯に充填させた場合でも安定して形成させることができ、樹脂溜まり部に内圧がかかることで、高い密封性を得ることができる。The packaging container of this invention WHEREIN: It is preferable that the said resin reservoir part is the shape which protruded the resin of the said apex part of the said container main body.
In this invention, when the first inclined portion is heat-sealed by placing the lid member on the flange portion at an inclination angle of 40 ° or more and 80 ° or less with respect to the surface direction of the opening, the resin reservoir portion is A shape having a resin protruding portion in which the resin at the apex portion on the container side protrudes between the lid member and the first inclined portion.
The resin protruding portion can be stably formed even when the contents are fully filled in the container, and high sealing performance can be obtained by applying an internal pressure to the resin reservoir portion.

本発明の包装容器において、前記シール層が凝集剥離することにより開封されることが好ましい。
本発明の包装容器では、蓋材または容器本体のうち少なくともいずれか一方のシール層に剥離層を設けることができる。剥離層としては、凝集剥離タイプ、層間剥離タイプ等があるが、包装容器を開封した際にひげと呼ばれる不良現象が発生しにくいという観点から、凝集剥離タイプの剥離層を設けることが好ましい。
これによれば、蓋材がヒートシールされた包装容器を開封するとき、シール層が凝集破壊することにより凝集剥離するため易開封性に優れるとともに、蓋材とシール層との間で剥離しないので密封性に優れた包装容器を提供することができる。In the packaging container of the present invention, it is preferable that the sealing layer is opened by cohesive peeling.
In the packaging container of this invention, a peeling layer can be provided in at least any one sealing layer among a cover material or a container main body. As the release layer, there are an aggregation release type, an interlayer release type, and the like. However, it is preferable to provide an aggregation release type release layer from the viewpoint that a defective phenomenon called a whisker hardly occurs when the packaging container is opened.
According to this, when opening the packaging container in which the lid material is heat-sealed, the seal layer is cohesive and peeled due to cohesive failure, so it is excellent in easy-opening property and does not peel between the lid material and the seal layer. It is possible to provide a packaging container having excellent sealing properties.

In 251, the flocculent peeling occurs. When this cohesive peeling passes through the inner peripheral side end portion 42 of the seal portion 40 and reaches the resin reservoir portion 33, it is peeled off at the boundary between the resin reservoir portion 33 and the seal layer 251, and the packaging container 1 is opened.
[3. Container body manufacturing equipment)
Next, the manufacturing apparatus which manufactures the container main body 20 of this embodiment is demonstrated using FIG.
The container body 20 is formed by thermoforming the multilayer sheet 25 by a known method such as plug assist vacuum forming or plug assist pressure forming.
The manufacturing apparatus 5 is an apparatus for thermoforming the container body 20 from the multilayer sheet 25, and sandwiches the mold 51 disposed on the side opposite to the side on which the opening 22 of the multilayer sheet 25 is formed, and the flange portion 23. And a flange presser 52 disposed on the opposite side of the mold 51 and a plug 53 that forms the opening 22 of the container body 20.

金型５１には、容器本体２０の開口部２２を形成するための成形凹部５１１が中央に形成されており、この成形凹部５１１の上端縁にはフランジ部２３を成形するためのフランジ成形部５１２が形成されている。金型５１は、本実施形態では、φ８０ｍｍのカップ用の金型である。
フランジ成形部５１２は、開口部２２の面方向に対して３０°の傾斜角度を有する第１の傾斜面５１３と、開口部２２の面方向に対して１５°の傾斜角度を有する第２の傾斜面５１４と、を有している。これらの第１の傾斜面５１３および第２の傾斜面５１４により、フランジ成形部５１２は全体的に凸状に形成されている。A molding recess 511 for forming the opening 22 of the container body 20 is formed at the center of the mold 51, and a flange molding portion 512 for molding the flange portion 23 at the upper edge of the molding recess 511. Is formed. In this embodiment, the mold 51 is a mold for a φ80 mm cup.
The flange forming portion 512 includes a first inclined surface 513 having an inclination angle of 30 ° with respect to the surface direction of the opening 22 and a second inclination having an inclination angle of 15 ° with respect to the surface direction of the opening 22. A surface 514. By the first inclined surface 513 and the second inclined surface 514, the flange forming portion 512 is formed in a convex shape as a whole.

フランジ押さえ５２は、金型５１のフランジ成形部５１２とともに多層シート２５を押さえることで、容器本体２０のフランジ部２３を成形するものである。
フランジ押さえ５２は、金型５１の成形凹部５１１の開口部の外縁に沿って環状に形成され、金型５１のフランジ成形部５１２と対向する押さえ面５２１を有している。押さえ面５２１は、フランジ成形部５１２に嵌合するように、開口部２２の面方向に対して３０°の傾斜角度を有する第１の適合面５２１Ａと、開口部２２の面方向に対して１５°の傾斜角度を有する第２の適合面５２１Ｂとを有しており、フランジ押さえ５２は、凹状に形成されている。The flange retainer 52 forms the flange portion 23 of the container body 20 by pressing the multilayer sheet 25 together with the flange forming portion 512 of the mold 51.
The flange presser 52 is formed in an annular shape along the outer edge of the opening of the molding recess 511 of the mold 51, and has a pressing surface 521 that faces the flange molding part 512 of the mold 51. The pressing surface 521 has a first matching surface 521A having an inclination angle of 30 ° with respect to the surface direction of the opening 22 and 15 with respect to the surface direction of the opening 22 so as to be fitted to the flange forming portion 512. The flange fitting 52 is formed in a concave shape.

以上のように、凸状に形成されたフランジ成形部５１２と凹状に形成されたフランジ押さえ５２とが、多層シート２５を介して嵌合することにより、フランジ部２３を成形する。
また、フランジ押さえ５２は金型５１とともに１０℃以上１６０℃以下の範囲で調温可能とされている。
さらに、フランジ押さえ５２はスプリング５４に連結されており、ばね定数の異なるばねに交換することによって圧力が調整可能となっている。As described above, the flange forming portion 512 formed in a convex shape and the flange presser 52 formed in a concave shape are fitted through the multilayer sheet 25 to form the flange portion 23.
Further, the flange presser 52 can be adjusted in the temperature range of 10 ° C. or more and 160 ° C. or less together with the mold 51.
Further, the flange presser 52 is connected to a spring 54, and the pressure can be adjusted by exchanging with a spring having a different spring constant.

プラグ５３は、金型５１の成形凹部５１１よりも小さい径で略同形状に形成され、多層シート２５を挟んで成形凹部５１１に嵌合する。
以上のような製造装置５により、多層シート２５を金型５１とフランジ押さえ５２及びプラグ５３との間に送り、この状態でフランジ押さえ５２及びプラグ５３を金型５１側に移動させることで、内容物を収納するための凹部２１とフランジ部２３とが多層シート２５に一度に成形され、容器本体２０を成形することができる。The plug 53 is formed in substantially the same shape with a smaller diameter than the molding recess 511 of the mold 51, and fits into the molding recess 511 with the multilayer sheet 25 interposed therebetween.
By the manufacturing apparatus 5 as described above, the multilayer sheet 25 is fed between the mold 51 and the flange retainer 52 and the plug 53, and in this state, the flange retainer 52 and the plug 53 are moved to the mold 51 side. The concave portion 21 and the flange portion 23 for storing objects are formed in the multilayer sheet 25 at a time, and the container body 20 can be formed.

〔４．包装容器の製造方法〕
次に、本実施形態の包装容器１を製造する方法について説明する。
まず、加熱されて軟化した多層シート２５が前述の製造装置５に導入される。多層シート２５が金型５１の上面側に到達したところで、プラグ５３を多層シート２５に接近させる。この場合、プラグ５３と多層シート２５とで囲まれた空間は密閉状態となる。そして、多層シート２５を予備成形するとともに、プラグ５３の多層シート２５と面する側に設けられた図示しない圧空チャンバーにより高圧空気を注入して圧空状態にしながら成形凹部５１１に押しつけ、プラグアシスト圧空成形を行う。[4. (Manufacturing method of packaging container)
Next, a method for manufacturing the packaging container 1 of the present embodiment will be described.
First, the heated and softened multilayer sheet 25 is introduced into the manufacturing apparatus 5 described above. When the multilayer sheet 25 reaches the upper surface side of the mold 51, the plug 53 is brought close to the multilayer sheet 25. In this case, the space surrounded by the plug 53 and the multilayer sheet 25 is sealed. Then, the multilayer sheet 25 is preformed, and high-pressure air is injected into a compressed air chamber (not shown) provided on the side of the plug 53 facing the multilayer sheet 25 and pressed against the molding recess 511 while being in a compressed air state, thereby performing plug-assisted pneumatic molding. I do.

また、この工程と同時に、フランジ押さえ５２を金型５１のフランジ成形部５１２に押しあて、フランジ部２３を形成する。フランジ押さえ５２は、圧力が１．５ｋｇ／ｃｍ２以上２０ｋｇ／ｃｍ２以下の範囲となるようにスプリング５４にて調製される。圧力が１．５ｋｇ／ｃｍ２未満、または２０ｋｇ／ｃｍ２を超えると、フランジ部２３を所望の厚みに形成することが困難となる。また、フランジ押さえ５２の温度は１０℃以上１６０℃以下の範囲となるように調製される。温度が１６０℃を超えると、シール層２５１に使用されている樹脂の融点に近づくため、成形自体が不安定になるおそれがある。フランジ押さえ５２の温度のより好ましい範囲は１００℃以上１２０℃以下である。At the same time as this step, the flange presser 52 is pressed against the flange forming portion 512 of the mold 51 to form the flange portion 23. The flange retainer 52 is prepared by the spring 54 so that the pressure is in the range of 1.5 kg / cm 2 or more and 20 kg / cm 2 or less. If the pressure is less than 1.5 kg / cm 2 or exceeds 20 kg / cm 2 , it is difficult to form the flange portion 23 in a desired thickness. Further, the temperature of the flange presser 52 is adjusted to be in the range of 10 ° C. or higher and 160 ° C. or lower. When the temperature exceeds 160 ° C., the melting point of the resin used for the seal layer 251 is approached, so that the molding itself may become unstable. A more preferable range of the temperature of the flange presser 52 is 100 ° C. or higher and 120 ° C. or lower.

次に、多層シート２５から成形された容器本体２０には、内容物Ｐとなる液体が注入・充填され、容器本体２０のフランジ部２３と蓋材３０とがヒートシールされる。
図６Ａ〜図６Ｃを用いて、ヒートシールの工程を説明する。まず、図６Ａにおいて、容器本体２０がヒートシールするためのシール台６に載置され、フランジ部２３の上面に蓋材３０が載せられる。そして、図６Ｂに示すように、加熱された環状のシールバー７が蓋材３０の上からフランジ部２３の頂角部２３３に押し当てられる。これにより、頂角部２３３の角度が大きくなる方向に第１の傾斜部２３１および第２の傾斜部２３２が角度を変えてフランジ部２３が変形し、シールバー７のシール面７１が蓋材３０を介して第２の傾斜部２３２に接触し、シール部４０が形成される。このとき、シールバー７の熱でシーラント層３２１が溶融し、この溶融樹脂がシーラント層３２１と第１の傾斜部２３１との間を埋めるように垂れて烏口形状の樹脂溜まり部３３が形成される。ヒートシールが終了してシールバー７による押圧をやめると、図６Ｃに示すように、第１の傾斜部２３１および第２の傾斜部２３２が元の形状に戻り、蓋材３０と第１の傾斜部２３１との間に樹脂溜まり部３３が形成されたシール状態となる。なお、シールバー７のシール面７１により、フランジ部２３の第２の傾斜部２３２が面圧接されてシール部４０が形成されるため、シール部４０の開口側に隙間が生じず樹脂溜まりは形成されない。
ヒートシールによる接着強度は、温度、圧力、時間等のヒートシール条件、各層の厚み、樹脂選定等により調節できる。Next, the container main body 20 formed from the multilayer sheet 25 is filled and filled with the liquid as the contents P, and the flange portion 23 of the container main body 20 and the lid member 30 are heat-sealed.
The heat sealing process will be described with reference to FIGS. 6A to 6C. First, in FIG. 6A, the container body 20 is placed on the sealing base 6 for heat sealing, and the lid member 30 is placed on the upper surface of the flange portion 23. Then, as shown in FIG. 6B, the heated annular seal bar 7 is pressed against the apex portion 233 of the flange portion 23 from above the lid member 30. As a result, the first inclined portion 231 and the second inclined portion 232 change the angle in the direction in which the angle of the apex angle portion 233 is increased, and the flange portion 23 is deformed, and the seal surface 71 of the seal bar 7 becomes the lid member 30. The second inclined portion 232 is contacted through the seal portion 40, and the seal portion 40 is formed. At this time, the sealant layer 321 is melted by the heat of the seal bar 7, and the molten resin hangs so as to fill the space between the sealant layer 321 and the first inclined portion 231, thereby forming a throat-shaped resin reservoir portion 33. . When the heat seal is finished and the pressing by the seal bar 7 is stopped, as shown in FIG. 6C, the first inclined portion 231 and the second inclined portion 232 return to their original shapes, and the lid member 30 and the first inclined portion The resin reservoir 33 is formed between the portion 231 and the sealing state. In addition, since the seal portion 71 is formed by pressure-contacting the second inclined portion 232 of the flange portion 23 by the seal surface 71 of the seal bar 7, no gap is formed on the opening side of the seal portion 40, and a resin pool is formed. Not.
The adhesive strength by heat sealing can be adjusted by heat sealing conditions such as temperature, pressure, and time, the thickness of each layer, resin selection, and the like.

したがって、本実施形態では、次の作用効果を奏することができる。
（１）容器本体２０のフランジ部２３の第１の傾斜部２３１が開口部２２の面方向に対して３０°の傾斜角度で形成されるとともに、第２の傾斜部２３２が開口部２２の面方向に対して１５°の傾斜角度で形成されている。このフランジ部２３と蓋材３０とをヒートシールすると、蓋材３０のシーラント層３２１が溶融して垂れ下がり、第１の傾斜部２３１と蓋材３０との間に烏口形状の樹脂溜まり部３３が形成される。
この樹脂溜まり部３３は、フランジ部２３のシール部４０の内周側端部４２側にのみ形成されるので、包装容器１の内圧強度が高くなり高密封性に優れる。また、開口側端部４１側には樹脂溜まりが形成されないので、易開封性を維持することができる。すなわち、高密封性と易開封性に優れた包装容器を提供することができる。Therefore, in the present embodiment, the following operational effects can be achieved.
(1) The first inclined portion 231 of the flange portion 23 of the container body 20 is formed at an inclination angle of 30 ° with respect to the surface direction of the opening portion 22, and the second inclined portion 232 is the surface of the opening portion 22. It is formed at an inclination angle of 15 ° with respect to the direction. When the flange portion 23 and the lid member 30 are heat-sealed, the sealant layer 321 of the lid member 30 melts and hangs down, and a throat-shaped resin reservoir 33 is formed between the first inclined portion 231 and the lid member 30. Is done.
Since the resin reservoir portion 33 is formed only on the inner peripheral side end portion 42 side of the seal portion 40 of the flange portion 23, the internal pressure strength of the packaging container 1 is increased and excellent in high sealing performance. Further, since the resin reservoir is not formed on the opening side end 41 side, easy-openability can be maintained. That is, it is possible to provide a packaging container excellent in high sealing performance and easy opening.

（２）また、フランジ部２３において、第１の傾斜部２３１を開口部２２の面方向に対して３０°の傾斜角度で形成し、第２の傾斜部２３２を開口部２２の面方向に対して１５°の傾斜角度で形成することにより、通常使用されるフラットな面を有するシールバー７でヒートシールするだけで、前述の樹脂溜まり部３３を形成することができる。すなわち、シール部４０の位置を調整しなくとも簡単にシール部４０の内周側端部４２側にのみ樹脂溜まり部３３を形成することができる。すなわち、簡単な製造方法で安定した高密封性および易開封性を備えた包装容器を製造することができる。 (2) In the flange portion 23, the first inclined portion 231 is formed at an inclination angle of 30 ° with respect to the surface direction of the opening portion 22, and the second inclined portion 232 is formed with respect to the surface direction of the opening portion 22. The above-described resin reservoir 33 can be formed simply by heat-sealing with a seal bar 7 having a flat surface that is normally used. That is, the resin reservoir 33 can be easily formed only on the inner peripheral end 42 side of the seal portion 40 without adjusting the position of the seal portion 40. That is, it is possible to manufacture a packaging container having stable high sealing performance and easy opening performance by a simple manufacturing method.

（３）一般的に使用されているシールバーを利用することができるので、特別なシール設備が必要でなく、導入コストを削減することができるとともに、製造方法を変える必要もなく、安定して包装容器１を供給することができる。 (3) Since a commonly used seal bar can be used, no special seal equipment is required, the introduction cost can be reduced, and there is no need to change the manufacturing method. The packaging container 1 can be supplied.

（４）金型５１にフランジ部２３を形成するためのフランジ成形部５１２を設けたので、通常の容器本体の成形方法により簡単に成形することができる。
そして、このように成形されたフランジ部２３は、略一定の厚みで形成されるので、容器本体２０の多層シート２５および各層の厚みを調整するなどの複雑な調整が必要ないため、簡単な工程で製造することができる。また、樹脂溜まり部３３を形成するためにフランジ部２３の厚みを厚くする必要もないので、材料コストおよび製造コストの低減を図ることができる。(4) Since the flange forming portion 512 for forming the flange portion 23 is provided in the mold 51, it can be easily formed by a normal container body forming method.
And since the flange part 23 shape | molded in this way is formed by substantially constant thickness, since complicated adjustments, such as adjusting the thickness of the multilayer sheet 25 and each layer of the container main body 20, are unnecessary, it is a simple process. Can be manufactured. Further, since it is not necessary to increase the thickness of the flange portion 23 in order to form the resin reservoir portion 33, the material cost and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

（５）また、本実施形態では、金型５１とともに、フランジ成形部５１２と対向する押さえ面５２１を有するフランジ押さえ５２を用いている。このフランジ押さえ５２を多層シート２５を介してフランジ成形部５１２に押し当てることにより、フランジ部２３の厚み精度が向上し、安定した易開封性かつ高密封性に優れた包装容器を提供することができる。 (5) Moreover, in this embodiment, the flange holding | suppressing 52 which has the pressing surface 521 which opposes the flange molding part 512 with the metal mold | die 51 is used. By pressing the flange presser 52 against the flange forming portion 512 via the multilayer sheet 25, the thickness accuracy of the flange portion 23 is improved, and a packaging container excellent in stable easy-openability and high sealability is provided. it can.

なお、本発明は上述の実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の目的を達成できる範囲での変形、改良等は本発明に含まれるものである。   In addition, this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, The deformation | transformation in the range which can achieve the objective of this invention, improvement, etc. are included in this invention.

例えば、上述の実施形態では、シール層２５１が凝集剥離することにより包装容器１が開封されたが、シール層２５１と隣接する中間層２５２との界面における界面剥離によって開封される構成であってもよい。
この場合、シール層２５１と中間層２５２との剥離強度よりも、シール層２５１と蓋材３０との剥離強度が大きくなるように設定されることが好ましい。例えば、シール層２５１と中間層２５２との剥離強度は、０．５ｋｇ／１５ｍｍ以上２．５ｋｇ／１５ｍｍ以下の範囲内に設定される。シール層２５１と中間層２５２との剥離強度が０．５ｋｇ／１５ｍｍ未満であると、密封性が損なわれるおそれがあり、また、２．５ｋｇ／１５ｍｍを超えると、シール層２５１を中間層２５２からなかなか剥離できず開封しづらくなる。剥離強度の好ましい範囲は、０．５ｋｇ／１５ｍｍ以上１．３ｋｇ／１５ｍｍ以下である。For example, in the above-described embodiment, the packaging container 1 is opened by the cohesive separation of the seal layer 251. However, even if the structure is opened by interface delamination at the interface between the seal layer 251 and the adjacent intermediate layer 252. Good.
In this case, it is preferable to set the peel strength between the seal layer 251 and the lid member 30 to be larger than the peel strength between the seal layer 251 and the intermediate layer 252. For example, the peel strength between the seal layer 251 and the intermediate layer 252 is set within a range of 0.5 kg / 15 mm to 2.5 kg / 15 mm. If the peel strength between the seal layer 251 and the intermediate layer 252 is less than 0.5 kg / 15 mm, the sealing performance may be impaired. If the peel strength exceeds 2.5 kg / 15 mm, the seal layer 251 is removed from the intermediate layer 252. Difficult to peel off and difficult to open. A preferable range of the peel strength is 0.5 kg / 15 mm or more and 1.3 kg / 15 mm or less.

このとき、シール層２５１の厚みは、１０μｍ以上１００μｍ以下の範囲であることが好ましく、容器の大きさ、用途によって適宜調製することができる。成形前のシール層２５１の厚みが１０μｍ未満であると、蓋材３０とシールしたときにシール層２５１が安定しないため、中間層２５２から剥離しづらくなる。また、シール層２５１の厚みが１００μｍを超えると、必要以上に厚くなるため実用的でない。中間層２５２の厚みは特に限定されないが、１０μｍ以上の範囲に形成するのが好ましい。中間層２５２の厚みが１０μｍ未満であると、基材層２５３と中間層２５２との間で剥離する恐れがある。なお、中間層２５２の厚みのより好ましい範囲は、５０μｍ以上である。   At this time, the thickness of the seal layer 251 is preferably in the range of 10 μm to 100 μm, and can be appropriately prepared depending on the size and use of the container. If the thickness of the sealing layer 251 before molding is less than 10 μm, the sealing layer 251 is not stable when sealed with the lid member 30, so that it is difficult to peel off from the intermediate layer 252. On the other hand, if the thickness of the seal layer 251 exceeds 100 μm, it is not practical because it becomes thicker than necessary. The thickness of the intermediate layer 252 is not particularly limited, but is preferably formed in a range of 10 μm or more. There exists a possibility that it may peel between the base material layer 253 and the intermediate | middle layer 252 as the thickness of the intermediate | middle layer 252 is less than 10 micrometers. Note that a more preferable range of the thickness of the intermediate layer 252 is 50 μm or more.

また、フランジ部２３は上述の実施形態の形状に限られず、ヒートシール時にシール部４０の内周側端部４２付近に樹脂溜まり部３３が形成される構成であればよい。例えば、図７Ａに示すように、段差部２１２と第１の傾斜部２３１とが曲面状に接続していてもよく、また、第１の傾斜部２３１と第２の傾斜部２３２とが曲面状に接続していてもよい。また、図７Ｂに示すように、第２の傾斜部２３２の端部から外方向に延設された端縁部２３４を有していてもよい。   Moreover, the flange part 23 is not restricted to the shape of the above-mentioned embodiment, What is necessary is just the structure where the resin pool part 33 is formed in the inner peripheral side edge part 42 vicinity of the seal part 40 at the time of heat sealing. For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, the step portion 212 and the first inclined portion 231 may be connected in a curved shape, and the first inclined portion 231 and the second inclined portion 232 are in a curved shape. You may connect to. Moreover, as shown to FIG. 7B, you may have the edge part 234 extended from the edge part of the 2nd inclination part 232 to the outward direction.

上述の実施形態では、ヒートシールの熱により蓋材側の樹脂を溶融させたが、容器側の樹脂を溶融させる構成、または、蓋材側および容器側の両側の樹脂を溶融させる構成であってもよい。
また、上述の実施形態では、樹脂溜まり部３３を烏口形状としたが、第１の傾斜部２３１が開口部２２の面方向に対して４０°以上かつ８０°以下の傾斜角度Ａ１で蓋材３０をフランジ部２３に載置してヒートシールした場合には、図８に示すように、樹脂溜まり部３３は、蓋材３０と第１の傾斜部２３１との間に容器側の頂角部の樹脂がせり出した樹脂せり出し部３４を有する形状とすることができる。そして、樹脂溜まり部３３は、樹脂せり出し部３４が蓋材３０のシーラント層３２１で覆われる形状とすることができる。
樹脂せり出し部３４は、容器１内に内容物Ｐを満杯に充填させた場合でも安定して形成させることができ、樹脂溜まり部３３に内圧がかかることで、高い密封性を得ることができる。In the above-described embodiment, the resin on the lid material side is melted by heat of heat sealing, but the resin on the container side is melted, or the resin on both the lid material side and the container side is melted. Also good.
Further, in the above-described embodiment, the resin reservoir 33 has the shape of a shed, but the first inclined portion 231 has an inclination angle A1 of 40 ° or more and 80 ° or less with respect to the surface direction of the opening 22. 8 is placed on the flange portion 23 and heat-sealed, as shown in FIG. 8, the resin reservoir portion 33 is formed between the lid member 30 and the first inclined portion 231 at the apex corner portion on the container side. It can be set as the shape which has the resin protrusion part 34 which resin protruded. The resin reservoir 33 can have a shape in which the resin protrusion 34 is covered with the sealant layer 321 of the lid member 30.
The resin protruding portion 34 can be stably formed even when the contents P are fully filled in the container 1, and high internal sealability can be obtained by applying an internal pressure to the resin reservoir portion 33.

さらに、上述の実施形態では、フランジ押さえ５２を用いてフランジ部２３を成形したが、フランジ押さえ５２を用いない構成としてもよい。これによれば、簡単な製造装置で容器本体を成形することができる。
そして、前記実施形態では、包装容器１の形状を平面円形状としたが、これに限られず、平面矩形状やその他の形状でもよい。Furthermore, although the flange part 23 was shape | molded using the flange presser 52 in the above-mentioned embodiment, it is good also as a structure which does not use the flange presser 52. FIG. According to this, a container main body can be shape | molded with a simple manufacturing apparatus.
And in the said embodiment, although the shape of the packaging container 1 was made into the planar circular shape, it is not restricted to this, A planar rectangular shape and another shape may be sufficient.

次に、実施例を挙げて本発明をさらに詳しく説明するが、本発明はこれらの実施例の記載内容に何ら制約されるものではない。   EXAMPLES Next, although an Example is given and this invention is demonstrated in more detail, this invention is not restrict | limited at all to the content of description of these Examples.

表１からわかるように、実施例１〜８では、内圧強度、開封強度、開封感およびシール調整において良好な結果が得られている。特に、実施例８ではシールバーＹを用いることで、より良い開封感が得られている。
また、実施例９では内周側角度Ａが外周側角度Ｂよりも小さいため、開封強度がやや大きい。実施例１０では外周側角度Ｂが小さいため、開封強度がやや大きい。実施例１１では内周側角度Ａが小さいために内圧強度がやや低下している。実施例１２では内周側角度Ａが大きいために内圧強度がやや低下している。しかしながら、実施例９〜１２では、シール調整が良好であるので、汎用的に製造することが可能である。
一方、比較例１および比較例２では、開封強度および開封感に劣り、比較例３では内圧強度および開封強度に関しては実用上問題ないが、これらの比較例１〜３ではシール調整が困難であった。As can be seen from Table 1, in Examples 1 to 8, good results were obtained in internal pressure strength, opening strength, opening feeling, and seal adjustment. Particularly, in Example 8, a better opening feeling is obtained by using the seal bar Y.
Moreover, in Example 9, since the inner peripheral side angle A is smaller than the outer peripheral side angle B, the opening strength is slightly high. In Example 10, since the outer peripheral side angle B is small, the opening strength is slightly high. In Example 11, since the inner peripheral side angle A is small, the internal pressure strength is slightly reduced. In Example 12, since the inner peripheral side angle A is large, the internal pressure strength is slightly reduced. However, in Examples 9-12, since seal adjustment is favorable, it can be manufactured for general use.
On the other hand, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 are inferior in opening strength and opening feeling, and Comparative Example 3 has no practical problem with respect to internal pressure strength and opening strength, but in Comparative Examples 1 to 3, it is difficult to adjust the seal. It was.
