Description

  The present invention relates to a composite container mainly containing a liquid content such as food and drink and a blow molding method for molding the composite container.

  Recently, plastic bottles for storing content liquids such as food and drink have become popular, and such plastic bottles store the content liquid.

  A plastic bottle containing such a content liquid is manufactured by inserting a preform into a mold and performing biaxial stretch blow molding.

  By the way, in the conventional biaxial stretch blow molding method, for example, a preform containing a single layer material such as PET or PP, a multilayer material, a blend material, or the like is used to mold the container into a container shape. However, in the conventional biaxial stretch blow molding method, it is common to simply mold the preform into a container shape. For this reason, when giving various functions and characteristics (barrier property, heat retaining property, etc.) to the container, such means as changing the material constituting the preform are limited. In particular, it is difficult to provide different functions and characteristics depending on the part (for example, the trunk and the bottom) of the container.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 3 are views showing an embodiment of the present invention.

  First, an outline of the composite container according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, in this specification, "upper" and "lower" refer to the upper side and the lower side in a state where the composite container 10A is erected (FIG. 1), respectively.

  The composite container 10A shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is formed by performing biaxial stretch blow molding on the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 using a blow molding die 50 as described later. , The preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are integrally expanded.

  Such a composite container 10A includes a container body 10 made of a plastic material positioned inside, an inner label member 60 provided in close contact with the outside of the container body 10, and a close contact provided on the outside of the inner label member 60. And the outer contraction member 40 provided.

  The container body 10 includes a mouth portion 11, a neck portion 13 provided below the mouth portion 11, a shoulder portion 12 provided below the neck portion 13, a body portion 20 provided below the shoulder portion 12, and a body portion. And a bottom portion 30 provided below the portion 20.

  On the other hand, the inner label member 60 is in close contact with the outer surface of the container main body 10 and is so close to the container main body 10 that it does not easily move or rotate.

  The outer contraction member 40 is in close contact with the outer surface of the container main body 10 and the outer surface of the inner label member 60, and is in close contact with the container main body 10 so as not to easily move or rotate.

  It is conceivable that at least a part of the outer contraction member 40 is translucent or transparent. In this case, the inner label member 60 can be visually recognized from the outside through the translucent or transparent portion. The outer contraction member 40 may be entirely translucent or transparent, or may have an opaque portion and a translucent or transparent portion (for example, a window). In the present embodiment, a case where the entire outer contraction member 40 is transparent will be described as an example.

  Next, the container body 10 will be described in detail. The container body 10 has the mouth 11, the neck 13, the shoulder 12, the trunk 20, and the bottom 30 as described above.

  The opening 11 has a screw portion 14 screwed to a cap (not shown) and a flange portion 17 provided below the screw portion 14. The shape of the mouth 11 may be a conventionally known shape.

  The neck portion 13 is located between the flange portion 17 and the shoulder portion 12 and has a substantially cylindrical shape having a substantially uniform diameter. The shoulder portion 12 is located between the neck portion 13 and the body portion 20 and has a shape whose diameter gradually increases from the neck portion 13 side toward the body portion 20 side.

  Further, the body 20 has a cylindrical shape having a substantially uniform diameter as a whole. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the body 20 may have a polygonal cylindrical shape such as a rectangular cylindrical shape or an octagonal cylindrical shape. Alternatively, the body 20 may have a tubular shape having a horizontal cross section that is not uniform from above to below. Further, in the present embodiment, the body portion 20 has no substantially uneven surface and a substantially flat surface, but is not limited thereto. For example, unevenness such as a panel or a groove may be formed on the body 20.

  On the other hand, the bottom portion 30 has a concave portion 31 located at the center and a ground portion 32 provided around the concave portion 31. The shape of the bottom 30 is not particularly limited, and may have a conventionally known bottom shape (for example, a petaloid bottom shape or a round bottom shape).

  The thickness of the container body 10 in the body 20 is not limited to this, but can be reduced to, for example, about 50 μm to 250 μm. Further, the weight of the container body 10 is not limited to this, but can be 10 g to 20 g. By reducing the thickness of the container body 10 in this manner, the weight of the container body 10 can be reduced.

  Such a container body 10 can be manufactured by biaxially stretch-blow-molding a preform 10a (described later) manufactured by injection-molding a synthetic resin material. As the material of the preform 10a, that is, the material of the container body 10, it is preferable to use a thermoplastic resin, in particular, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and PEN (polyethylene naphthalate).

  Further, the container body 10 can be formed as a multilayer molded bottle having two or more layers. That is, for example, by extrusion molding or injection molding, the intermediate layer is provided with a gas barrier property such as MXD6, MXD6 + fatty acid salt, PGA (polyglycolic acid), EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer) or PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) and a light shielding property. As a resin (intermediate layer), a preform 10a composed of three or more layers may be formed into a multilayer bottle having gas barrier properties and light shielding properties by extrusion molding and then blow molding.

  Such a container body 10 may be composed of, for example, a bottle having a full capacity of 150 ml to 1500 ml.

  Next, the inner label member 60 will be described. The inner label member 60 is provided on the outside of the preform 10a as described later, is heated integrally with the preform 10a and the outer contraction member 40, and is obtained by biaxial stretch blow molding. .

  The inner label member 60 is attached to the outer surface of the container body 10 without being adhered thereto, and is tightly attached to the container body 10 so as not to move or rotate. As shown in FIG. 2, the inner label member 60 is provided over the entire circumferential direction so as to surround the container body 10, and has a substantially circular horizontal cross section.

  In this case, the inner label member 60 is provided so as to cover the shoulder 12, the trunk 20, and the bottom 30 of the container main body 10 except for the mouth 11 and the neck 13. Thereby, desired characters, images, and the like can be given to the shoulder portion 12, the body portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the container body 10, and the composite container 10A can be provided with decorativeness or display information.

  Note that the inner label member 60 may be provided in the whole or a part of the container body 10 other than the mouth 11. For example, the inner label member 60 may be provided so as to cover the entirety of the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 except for the mouth portion 11 in the container body 10. Further, the number of the inner label members 60 is not limited to one, and a plurality of inner label members may be provided. The inner label member 60 may be provided in the same region as the outer contraction member 40, or may be provided in a region smaller than the outer contraction member 40. In the latter case, the inner label member 60 is preferably completely covered by the outer contraction member 40.

  The thickness of the inner label member 60 is not limited to this, but can be, for example, about 50 μm to 500 μm in a state where the inner label member 60 is attached to the container body 10.

  The inner label member 60 may be designed or printed in advance. For example, character information such as the name of the content liquid, the manufacturer, and the name of the raw material may be described in addition to the design and the product name. In this case, images and characters can be displayed on the composite container 10A without separately applying a label or the like to the container body 10 after blow molding. For example, an inner label member 60 may be provided on all or a part of the body 20 of the container body 10 to display an image or a character on the body 20. This eliminates the need for a step of applying a label using a labeler after the container is sealed, so that the manufacturing cost can be suppressed and the yield can be prevented from lowering.

  As such an inner label member 60, an unstretched film such as a polyester resin, a polyamide resin, a polyaramid resin, a polypropylene resin, a polycarbonate resin, a polyacetal resin, and a fluorine resin can be used. The inner label member 60 may be made of the same material as the container body 10 (preform 10a) and / or the outer contraction member 40, or may be made of a different material.

  Further, as the inner label member 60, various materials described below can be used.

  For example, the inner label member 60 may be made of a material having a gas barrier property such as an oxygen barrier property or a water vapor barrier property. In this case, the gas barrier property of the composite container 10A can be enhanced without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, and the content liquid can be prevented from being deteriorated by oxygen or water vapor. As such a material, it is conceivable to mix PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), MXD-6 (nylon), or an oxygen absorbing material such as a fatty acid salt with these materials.

  Further, the inner label member 60 may be made of a material having a light barrier property against ultraviolet rays or the like. In this case, without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, the light barrier property of the composite container 10A can be enhanced, and the deterioration of the content liquid due to ultraviolet rays or the like can be prevented. As such a material, a blended material or a material obtained by adding a light-shielding resin to PET, PE, or PP can be considered.

  Further, the inner label member 60 may be made of a material having a higher heat retaining property or a cold retaining property (a material having low thermal conductivity) than the plastic material constituting the container body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, it is possible to make it difficult for the temperature of the content liquid to be transmitted to the surface of the composite container 10A without increasing the thickness of the container body 10 itself. Thereby, the heat retaining property or the cold retaining property of the composite container 10A is enhanced. Examples of such a material include foamed polyurethane, polystyrene, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), phenol resin, polyvinyl chloride, urea resin, silicone, polyimide, and melamine resin.

  Next, the outer contraction member 40 will be described. The outer contracting member 40 is provided outside the inner label member 60 as described later, and is obtained by being integrally heated with the preform 10a and the inner label member 60 and subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding. .

  The outer contracting member 40 is attached to the outer surface of the inner label member 60 without being adhered thereto, and is tightly attached to the container body 10 so as not to move or rotate. As shown in FIG. 2, the outer contraction member 40 is provided over the entire circumferential direction so as to surround the container body 10 and has a substantially circular horizontal cross section.

  In this case, the outer contraction member 40 is provided so as to cover the shoulder 12, the trunk 20, and the bottom 30 of the container main body 10 except for the mouth 11 and the neck 13. Thereby, desired functions and characteristics can be imparted to the shoulder portion 12, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the container body 10.

  Note that the outer contraction member 40 may be provided in the whole or a part of the container body 10 other than the mouth 11. For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be provided so as to cover the entirety of the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the trunk portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the container body 10 except for the mouth portion 11. Further, the number of the outer contraction members 40 is not limited to one, and a plurality of outer contraction members may be provided. For example, two outer contracting members 40 may be provided on the outer surface of the shoulder 12 and the outer surface of the bottom 30, respectively.

  As such an outer contraction member 40, any member having a function of contracting the preform 10a may be used. In addition, the outer contraction member 40 may have contractibility or elasticity itself, and may be contractable without adding an external action. Alternatively, the outer contraction member 40 may contract (for example, heat contract) with respect to the preform 10a when an external action (for example, heat) is applied.

  The thickness of the outer contraction member 40 is not limited to this, but may be, for example, about 50 μm to 500 μm in a state where the outer contraction member 40 is attached to the container body 10.

  Various materials can be used for the outer contraction member 40 as described below.

  For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be made of the same material as the container body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, for example, the outer contraction member 40 can be arranged to focus on a portion of the composite container 10A where the strength is to be increased, and the strength of the portion can be selectively increased. For example, an outer contraction member 40 may be provided around the shoulder 12 and the bottom 30 of the container body 10 to increase the strength of this portion. Examples of such a material include thermoplastic resins, particularly PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and PEN (polyethylene naphthalate).

  Further, the outer contraction member 40 may be made of a material having a gas barrier property such as an oxygen barrier property or a water vapor barrier property. In this case, the gas barrier property of the composite container 10A can be enhanced without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, and the content liquid can be prevented from being deteriorated by oxygen or water vapor. For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be provided in the entire region of the shoulder 12, neck 13, trunk 20, and bottom 30 of the container body 10 to enhance the gas barrier properties of this portion. As such a material, it is conceivable to mix PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), MXD-6 (nylon), or an oxygen absorbing material such as a fatty acid salt with these materials.

  Further, the outer contraction member 40 may be made of a material having a light barrier property against ultraviolet rays or the like. In this case, without using a multilayer preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, the light barrier property of the composite container 10A can be enhanced, and the deterioration of the content liquid due to ultraviolet rays or the like can be prevented. For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be provided on the entire region of the shoulder 12, neck 13, body 20, and bottom 30 of the container body 10 to enhance the ultraviolet barrier property of this portion. As such a material, a blended material or a material obtained by adding a light-shielding resin to PET, PE, or PP can be considered.

  Further, the outer contraction member 40 may be made of a material having a higher heat retaining property or a cold retaining property (a material having low thermal conductivity) than the plastic material constituting the container body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, it is possible to make it difficult for the temperature of the content liquid to be transmitted to the surface of the composite container 10A without increasing the thickness of the container body 10 itself. Thereby, the heat retaining property or the cold retaining property of the composite container 10A is enhanced. For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be provided on all or a part of the body 20 of the container body 10 to enhance the heat retaining property or the cold retaining property of the body 20. Further, when the user grips the composite container 10A, it is prevented that the composite container 10A becomes difficult to hold due to being too hot or too cold. Examples of such a material include foamed polyurethane, polystyrene, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), phenol resin, polyvinyl chloride, urea resin, silicone, polyimide, and melamine resin.

  Further, the outer contraction member 40 may be made of a material that is less slippery than the plastic material that forms the container body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, the user can easily grip the composite container 10A without changing the material of the container body 10. For example, the outer contraction member 40 may be provided on all or a part of the body 20 of the container body 10 to make the body 20 easier to hold.

  Further, the outer contraction member 40 may be designed or printed in advance. For example, character information such as the name of the content liquid, the manufacturer, and the name of the raw material may be described in addition to the design and the product name.

  Next, a blow molding method (a method for manufacturing the composite container 10A) according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, a preform 10a made of a plastic material is prepared (see FIG. 3A). In this case, for example, the preform 10a may be manufactured by an injection molding method using an injection molding machine (not shown).

  The preform 10a includes a mouth 11a, a body 20a connected to the mouth 11a, and a bottom 30a connected to the body 20a. The mouth 11 a corresponds to the mouth 11 of the container body 10 described above, and has substantially the same shape as the mouth 11. The trunk 20a corresponds to the neck 13, the shoulder 12, and the trunk 20 of the container body 10 described above, and has a substantially cylindrical shape. The bottom 30a corresponds to the bottom 30 of the container body 10 described above, and has a substantially hemispherical shape.

  Next, the inside label member 60 is provided outside the preform 10a, and the outside contraction member 40 is provided outside the inside label member 60 (see FIG. 3B). In this case, the inner label member 60 has a bottomed cylindrical shape as a whole, and has a cylindrical body 61 and a bottom 62 connected to the body 61. The outer contraction member 40 has a bottomed cylindrical shape as a whole, and has a cylindrical body 41 and a bottom 42 connected to the body 41. The inner label member 60 and the outer contraction member 40 are mounted so as to cover the entire region of the trunk portion 20a except for the portion corresponding to the neck portion 13 of the container body 10 and the entire region of the bottom portion 30a. At least a part of the outer contraction member 40 may be translucent or transparent.

  In this case, the outer contracting member 40 may be provided in advance around the inner label member 60, and the inner label member 60 and the outer contracting member 40 may be integrally mounted on the outside of the preform 10a. Alternatively, the inner label member 60 may be provided outside the preform 10a, and then the outer contraction member 40 may be provided outside the inner label member 60.

  Next, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are heated by the heating device 51 (see FIG. 3C). At this time, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are uniformly heated in the circumferential direction by the heating device 51 while rotating with the mouth 11a facing downward. The heating temperature of the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 in this heating step may be, for example, 90 ° C. to 130 ° C.

  As described above, when the outer contraction member 40 is heated, the outer contraction member 40 is thermally contracted and adheres to the outside of the preform 10a (see FIG. 3C). When the outer contracting member 40 itself has contractibility, the outer contracting member 40 moves to the outside of the inner label member 60 when the outer contracting member 40 is provided outside the inner label member 60 (see FIG. 3B). It may be in close contact.

  Subsequently, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 heated by the heating device 51 are sent to the blow molding die 50 (see FIG. 3D).

  The composite container 10A is molded using the blow molding die 50. In this case, the blow mold 50 includes a pair of body dies 50a and 50b divided from each other and a bottom mold 50c (see FIG. 3D). In FIG. 3D, the pair of body molds 50a and 50b are open to each other, and the bottom mold 50c is raised upward. In this state, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are inserted between the pair of body molds 50a, 50b.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3 (e), after the bottom mold 50c is lowered, the pair of body molds 50a and 50b are closed and sealed by the pair of body molds 50a and 50b and the bottom mold 50c. The blow molding die 50 is formed. Next, air is press-fitted into the preform 10a, and the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding.

  Thereby, the container main body 10 is obtained from the preform 10a in the blow molding die 50. During this time, the body molds 50a and 50b are heated to 30 ° C to 80 ° C, and the bottom mold 50c is cooled to 5 ° C to 25 ° C. At this time, in the blow molding die 50, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are expanded integrally. Thus, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are integrally formed into a shape corresponding to the inner surface of the blow molding die 50.

  In this way, a composite container 10A including the container body 10, the inner label member 60 provided on the outer surface of the container body 10, and the outer contraction member 40 provided outside the inner label member 60 is obtained.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3 (f), the pair of body molds 50a, 50b and the bottom mold 50c are separated from each other, and the composite container 10A is taken out from the blow molding mold 50.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the preform 10a, the inner label member 60, and the outer contraction member 40 are subjected to blow molding in the blow molding die 50, so that the preform 10a, the inner label The member 60 and the outer contracting member 40 are integrally expanded to produce a composite container 10A including the container body 10, the inner label member 60, and the outer contracting member 40. For this reason, at the stage of manufacturing the composite container 10A using the preform 10a, the inner label member 60 can be provided in advance on the composite container 10A. Therefore, there is no need to provide a step of applying a label with a labeler after filling the content liquid into the composite container 10A and sealing the container. Thereby, the production cost for producing the final product can be suppressed. In addition, it is possible to prevent a decrease in yield when manufacturing a final product due to a defect of a labeler or the like.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the preform 10a (container main body 10) and the outer contraction member 40 can be configured as separate members. Therefore, by appropriately selecting the type and shape of the outer contraction member 40, various functions and characteristics can be freely imparted to the composite container 10A.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, when manufacturing the composite container 10A, a general blow molding apparatus can be used as it is, so that it is necessary to prepare new molding equipment for manufacturing the composite container 10A. Absent.

EXAMPLES Next, specific examples of this embodiment will be described.

  First, a preform 10a composed of a 18.3 g PET single-layer preform was manufactured by an injection molding method.

  Next, the preform 10a was subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding in a state where the inner label member 60 and the outer contraction member 40 were installed, to obtain a composite container 10A having a capacity of 180 mL. Polyolefin was used for the inner label member 60 and the outer contraction member 40.

Modification Next, a modification of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5A to 5F.

  The modification shown in FIGS. 4 and 5A to 5F does not have a body and a bottom as the inner label member 60 and the outer contraction member 40, but has a cylindrical inner label member 60 and an outer contraction member. 40 is used. As shown in FIG. 4, the inner label member 60 and the outer contraction member 40 extend from the shoulder 12 of the container body 10 to a lower portion of the body 20, but do not reach the bottom 30. 4 and 5 (a) to 5 (f), other configurations are substantially the same as those of the embodiment shown in FIGS.

  In addition, the configuration of the composite container 10A and the method of manufacturing the composite container 10A are substantially the same as those in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, and thus detailed description is omitted.
