Description

The present invention relates to an assembly of a bottle and a support container and a method for manufacturing the support container.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, plastic bottles have become common as bottles for containing contents such as food and drink, and contents are contained in such plastic bottles.

A plastic bottle containing such a content liquid is manufactured by inserting a preform into a mold and biaxially stretching and blow-molding it.

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 multi-layer material, or a blend material is used to form a container shape. However, in conventional biaxial stretch blow molding processes, it is common to simply mold the preform into a container shape. Therefore, when various functions and properties (barrier properties, heat retention, etc.) are to be imparted to the container, the means for doing so are limited, for example, by changing the material constituting the preform.

On the other hand, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have developed a composite container imparted with various functions and characteristics such as a light shielding property, a composite preform used for producing the composite container, and A manufacturing method has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).

In general, in conventional plastic bottles, the body of the plastic bottle is provided with functional unevenness such as a vacuum absorption panel, as well as decorative unevenness such as a pattern. In this case, after the container is filled with the content liquid, it is common to seal the container with a cap and apply a label around the container with a labeler (for example, Patent Document 2).

WO2016/093177 JP 2009-241526 A

(First embodiment)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 17 are diagrams showing a first embodiment of the present invention.

First, the outline of the assembly of the bottle and the support container according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5. FIG. In this specification, the terms "upper" and "lower" respectively refer to the upper side and the lower side when the bottom 30 of the bottle 10A faces vertically downward (FIG. 1).

An assembly 1 of a bottle and a support container (hereinafter referred to as an assembly) shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 includes a bottle 10A and a support container 80 that supports the bottle 10A in an upside down state.
Of these, the bottle 10A is produced by subjecting a composite preform 70 (see FIG. 11) including the preform 10a and the plastic member 40a to biaxial stretch blow molding using a blow molding die (not shown), as will be described later. , the preform 10a of the composite preform 70 and the plastic member 40a are integrally expanded to accommodate the content L and a cap (lid material) 60 is attached.

Such a bottle 10A includes a bottle body 10 made of a plastic material located inside, a plastic member 40 provided in close contact with the outside of the bottle body 10, a content L accommodated in the bottle body 10, and a cap 60 attached to the bottle body 10. - 特許庁

Of these, the bottle 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 20 provided below the shoulder portion 12. and a bottom portion 30 provided below the portion 20 . A cap 60 is attached to the mouth portion 11 to seal the content L contained in the bottle body 10 . A support container 80 is in contact with the boundary B between the shoulder portion 12 and the body portion 20 of the bottle body 10 (see FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b)).
This support container 80 supports the bottle 10A that has been turned upside down (with the mouth portion 11 directed downward) as described above (see FIG. 3B).

Further, the plastic member 40 is closely attached to the outer surface of the bottle main body 10 in a thinly extended state, and is attached to the bottle main body 10 in such a state that it cannot be easily moved or rotated. In addition, in FIG. 1, the plastic member 40 is exaggerated in the thickness direction.

Next, the bottle body 10 will be described in detail. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7 to 10, the bottle body 10 has the mouth portion 11, the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the body portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 as described above.

Of these, the mouth portion 11 has a male screw portion 14 screwed onto the cap 60 and a flange portion 17 provided below the male screw portion 14 (see FIGS. 1, 9 and 10). The shape of the mouth portion 11 may be a conventionally known shape, or may be a shape corresponding to a multi-screw type cap or a plugging type cap.

The neck portion 13 is located between the flange portion 17 and the shoulder portion 12 and has a substantially cylindrical shape with a substantially uniform diameter (see FIGS. 1, 7 and 9). The shoulder portion 12 is positioned between the neck portion 13 and the body portion 20, and has a shape in which the diameter gradually increases from the neck portion 13 side toward the body portion 20 side (FIGS. 1 and 2). 7 to 10).

Furthermore, the body 20 has a cylindrical shape with a non-uniform horizontal cross-section from top to bottom. More specifically, the barrel portion 20 has a barrel shape with a smaller diameter closer to the shoulder portion 12 and the bottom portion 30 (see FIGS. 1, 7 and 9). Therefore, when viewed from above or below, a portion of the body 20 is visible (see FIGS. 4, 5, 8 and 10).
The trunk portion 20 includes an R portion 20b that gradually decreases in diameter from the bottom portion 30 side toward the shoulder portion 12 side and curves in a vertical section. The shoulder 12 continues smoothly. As will be described later, in a vertical cross section, the contour of the outer surface of the side portion 82 of the support container 80 and the contour of the body portion 20 are smoothly continuous. Moreover, the horizontal cross section of the trunk portion 20 may not be circular, and may have a polygonal shape such as a quadrangular shape or an octagonal shape. Moreover, in the present embodiment, the trunk portion 20 has no irregularities and has a substantially flat surface, but the surface is not limited to this. For example, the body 20 may have unevenness such as panels or grooves, or may have a pattern formed by sandblasting, embossing, or laser processing.

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

Also, the thickness of the bottle body 10 at the body portion 20 is not limited to this, but can be reduced to, for example, about 50 μm or more and 250 μm or less. Further, the weight of the bottle body 10 is also not limited to this, but when the full filling capacity of the bottle body 10 is, for example, 300 ml, it can be 10 g or more and 30 g or less. By reducing the wall thickness of the bottle body 10 in this way, the weight of the bottle body 10 can be reduced.

Such a bottle body 10 can be produced by biaxially stretching blow molding a preform 10a (described later) produced by injection molding a synthetic resin material. The material of the preform 10a, that is, the bottle body 10 is thermoplastic resin, particularly PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PC (polycarbonate), IO (ionomer resin). ) is preferably used. The bottle body 10 may be colored red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, white, or the like, but is preferably colorless and transparent in consideration of ease of recycling. Moreover, you may blend and use the various resin mentioned above. Further, a deposited film such as a diamond-like carbon film or a silicon oxide thin film may be formed on the inner surface of the bottle body 10 in order to improve the barrier properties of the container.

Also, the bottle body 10 can be formed as a multi-layer molded bottle having two or more layers. That is, by extrusion molding or injection molding, for example, the intermediate layer is made of MXD6, MXD6 + fatty acid salt, PGA (polyglycolic acid), EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), etc., with gas barrier properties and light shielding properties. A multilayer bottle having gas barrier properties and light shielding properties may be formed by extruding a preform 10a having three or more layers as a resin (intermediate layer), followed by blow molding. As the intermediate layer, a resin obtained by blending the various resins described above may be used.

In addition, by mixing an inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) with a melt of a thermoplastic resin, a foamed preform having a foamed cell diameter of 0.5 μm or more and 100 μm or less is molded, and this foamed preform is blow molded. By doing so, the bottle body 10 may be produced. Since such a bottle body 10 incorporates foam cells, the light shielding property of the entire bottle body 10 can be enhanced.

Such a bottle body 10 may be made of a bottle with a full filling volume of 50 ml or more and 1500 ml or less, for example.

Next, the plastic member 40 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. The plastic member 40 (40a) is provided so as to surround the outside of the preform 10a as will be described later, and is obtained by closely contacting the outside of the preform 10a and then biaxially stretch blow molding together with the preform 10a. It is a thing. That is, the plastic member 40 is produced by integrally stretching the plastic member 40a together with the preform 10a, as will be described later.

The plastic member 40 is attached to the outer surface of the bottle body 10 without being glued, and is in close contact with the bottle body 10 so as not to move or rotate. The plastic member 40 is stretched thinly on the outer surface of the bottle body 10 to cover the bottle body 10 . Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the plastic member 40 is provided over the entire circumferential direction so as to surround the bottle body 10, and has a substantially circular horizontal cross section.

In this case, the plastic member 40 is provided so as to cover the neck portion 13 , the shoulder portion 12 , the body portion 20 and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 excluding the mouth portion 11 . Thereby, it is possible to provide the neck portion 13, the shoulder portion 12, the body portion 20, and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 with desired functions and characteristics, particularly light-shielding properties. Furthermore, the number of plastic members 40 is not limited to one, and a plurality of members may be provided. For example, two plastic members 40 may be provided on the outer surface of neck 13 and shoulder 12 and the outer surface of bottom 30, respectively.

On the other hand, since the plastic member 40 is not welded or adhered to the bottle body 10, it can be peeled off from the bottle body 10 and removed. Specifically, for example, the plastic member 40 is cut using a knife or the like, or a cutting line (not shown) is provided in advance on the plastic member 40, and the plastic member 40 is separated and cut from the bottle body 10 along the cutting line. can do.

The plastic member 40a from which such a plastic member 40 is produced may be one that does not have a contraction action with respect to the preform 10a, or one that has a contraction action. A heat-shrinkable tube can be used as the plastic member 40a that has the effect of shrinking the preform 10a.

Although the thickness of the plastic member 40 is not limited to this, it can be, for example, about 5 μm or more and 500 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or more and 100 μm or less when attached to the bottle body 10 . can be done. In addition, the thickness of the plastic member 40 around the neck portion 13 is, for example, about 50 μm or more and 1000 μm or less.

In this embodiment, the plastic member 40 may be colored with visible light colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, and white. Further, the plastic member 40 may be (semi-)transparent or opaque. In this case, for example, the plastic member 40 may be colored in a visible light color, and the bottle body 10 may be colorless and transparent. Alternatively, both the bottle body 10 and the plastic member 40 may be colored in visible light. When manufacturing the plastic member 40 colored in the visible light color, a visible light pigment may be added to the molding material in the process of manufacturing the plastic member 40a by extrusion molding or the like before blow molding. .

Next, referring to FIG. 11, the construction of a composite preform for manufacturing the bottle body 10 having the plastic member 40 in close contact with the outside will be described.

As shown in FIG. 11, the composite preform 70 includes a plastic material preform 10a and a bottomed cylindrical plastic member 40a provided outside the preform 10a.

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

The plastic member 40a is attached to the outer surface of the preform 10a without being glued, and is in such close contact with the preform 10a that it does not move or rotate, or in such close contact that it does not fall under its own weight. . The plastic member 40a surrounds the preform 10a over its entire circumferential direction and has a circular horizontal cross section.

The thickness of the plastic member 40a can be, for example, about 100 μm or more and 3000 μm or less. By setting the thickness to 100 μm or more, it is possible to prevent the plastic member 40a from being stretched and broken during blow molding. Further, by setting the thickness to 3000 mm or less, it is possible to prevent the problem that the plastic member 40a is not sufficiently stretched during blow molding.

In this case, the plastic member 40a is provided so as to cover the entire area except for the opening 11a. Also, the plastic member 40a may be colored with visible light colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, brown, black, and white.

The plastic member 40a may be provided in a partial area other than the opening 11a. Furthermore, the number of plastic members 40a is not limited to one, and a plurality of members may be provided. For example, two plastic members 40a may be provided at two locations on the outer side of the body portion 20a.

Such a plastic member 40a may be one that does not contract with respect to the preform 10a, or one that contracts.

In the former case, the plastic member 40a includes, for example, a direct blow molded tube manufactured by a direct blow molding method, a sheet molded tube manufactured by a sheet molding method, an extruded tube manufactured by extrusion molding, and a tube manufactured by inflation molding. Although an inflation-molded tube or the like can be used, the present invention is not limited to this, and molding methods other than those described above may be used.

In the latter case, i.e., when the plastic member (outer shrinkable member) 40a has a shrinking action, the plastic member (outer shrinkable member) 40a is, for example, deformed when an external action (eg, heat) is applied. A heat-shrinkable tube having an effect of shrinking (for example, heat-shrinking) to the reform 10a may be used. Alternatively, the plastic member (outer shrinkable member) 40a itself may be shrinkable or elastic, and may be shrinkable without external action.

Examples of the plastic member 40a include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, poly-4-methylpentene-1, polystyrene, AS resin, ABS resin, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl acetate, Polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetal, polyvinyl butyral, diallyl phthalate resin, fluorine resin, polymethyl methacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polymethyl acrylate, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylamide, polybutadiene, polybutene-1, polyisoprene, polychloroprene, Ethylene propylene rubber, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, acrylic rubber, silicone rubber, fluororubber, nylon 6, nylon 6,6, nylon MXD6, aromatic polyamide, polycarbonate, ethylene polyethylene terephthalate, butylene terephthalate, ethylene polynaphthalate, Ionomer resin, U polymer, liquid crystal polymer, modified polyphenylene ether, polyetherketone, polyetheretherketone, unsaturated polyester, alkyd resin, polyimide, polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, polyethersulfone, silicone resin, polyurethane, phenolic resin, urea resin , polyethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide, polyacetal, epoxy resin, and the like. Of these, it is preferable to use thermoplastic non-elastic resins such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). A blend material, a multilayer structure, or a partially multilayer structure may also be used. In addition to the main component resin, various additives may be added to the material of the plastic member 40a as long as the characteristics of the plastic member 40a are not impaired. Additives include, for example, plasticizers, ultraviolet stabilizers, anti-coloring agents, matting agents, deodorants, flame retardants, weathering agents, antistatic agents, thread friction reducing agents, slip agents, release agents, anti- Oxidizing agents, ion exchange agents, color pigments, and the like can be added. In addition, by mixing an inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) with a melt of a thermoplastic resin, a foamed member having a foamed cell diameter of 0.5 μm or more and 100 μm or less can be used to mold this foamed preform. can enhance the light shielding property.

Also, the plastic member 40a may be made of the same material as the bottle body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, it is possible to selectively increase the strength of the portion of the bottle 10A, for example, by placing the plastic member 40 intensively on the portion where the strength is desired to be increased. For example, a plastic member 40 may be provided around the shoulder portion 12 and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 to increase the strength of these portions. Examples of such materials include thermoplastic resins, particularly PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), and PC (polycarbonate).

Further, the plastic member 40a may be made of a material having gas barrier properties such as oxygen barrier properties or water vapor barrier properties. In this case, the gas barrier properties of the bottle 10A can be improved without using a multi-layered preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, and deterioration of the contents due to oxygen or water vapor can be prevented. For example, the shoulder portion 12, the neck portion 13, the body portion 20 and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 may be provided with the plastic member 40 to enhance the gas barrier properties of these portions. Such materials include PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), MXD-6 (nylon), EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer), PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride), or oxygen It is also conceivable to mix absorbent materials.

Further, the plastic member 40a may be made of a material having light barrier properties such as ultraviolet rays. In this case, the light barrier properties of the bottle 10A can be improved without using a multi-layered preform or a preform containing a blend material as the preform 10a, and deterioration of the contents due to ultraviolet rays or the like can be prevented. For example, the shoulder portion 12, the neck portion 13, the body portion 20 and the bottom portion 30 of the bottle body 10 may be provided with a plastic member 40a in order to enhance the UV barrier properties of these portions. Such a material may be a blend material or a material obtained by adding a light-shielding resin to PET, PE, or PP. Also, a foam member having a foam cell diameter of 0.5 μm or more and 100 μm or less, which is produced by mixing an inert gas (nitrogen gas, argon gas) into a melt of a thermoplastic resin, may be used.

Also, the plastic member 40a may be made of a material (a material with a low thermal conductivity) that has higher cold-retaining or heat-retaining properties than the plastic material that constitutes the bottle body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, it is possible to make it difficult for the temperature of the contents to be transmitted to the surface of the bottle 10A without increasing the thickness of the bottle body 10 itself. Thereby, the cold-retaining property or heat-retaining property of the bottle 10A is enhanced. For example, the body 20 of the bottle body 10 may be entirely or partially provided with a plastic member 40 to enhance the cold insulation or heat retention of the body 20 .
Moreover, when the user grips the bottle 10A, it is prevented that the bottle 10A becomes difficult to hold due to being too cold or too hot. Such materials include foamed polyurethane, polystyrene, PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), phenol resin, polyvinyl chloride, urea resin, silicone, polyimide, melamine resin, and the like. It is preferable to mix hollow particles with the resin material containing these resins. The average particle diameter of the hollow particles is preferably 1 μm or more and 200 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or more and 80 μm or less. The "average particle size" means the volume average particle size, and is measured by a known method using a particle size distribution/particle size distribution analyzer (e.g., Nanotrac particle size distribution analyzer manufactured by Nikkiso Co., Ltd.). can do. The hollow particles may be organic hollow particles made of resin or the like, or inorganic hollow particles made of glass or the like. Hollow particles are preferred. Examples of the resin constituting the organic hollow particles include styrene resins such as crosslinked styrene-acrylic resins, (meth)acrylic resins such as acrylonitrile-acrylic resins, phenolic resins, fluorine resins, polyamide resins, and polyimides. resins, polycarbonate resins, polyether resins, and the like. In addition, Low Pake HP-1055, Low Pake HP-91, Low Pake OP-84J, Low Pake Ultra, Low Pake SE, Low Pake ST (manufactured by Rohm and Haas Co., Ltd.), Nipol MH-5055 (manufactured by Nippon Zeon Co., Ltd.), SX8782 , SX866 (manufactured by JSR Corporation) and other commercially available hollow particles can also be used. The content of the hollow particles is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more and 50 parts by mass or less, and 1 part by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the resin material contained in the plastic member 40a. It is more preferable to have

Further, the plastic member 40a may be made of a material that is less slippery than the plastic material that constitutes the bottle body 10 (preform 10a). In this case, the bottle 10A can be easily gripped by the user without changing the material of the bottle body 10 .
For example, all or part of the barrel 20 of the bottle body 10 may be provided with a plastic member 40 to make the barrel 20 easier to hold.

Also, the plastic member 40a may be previously printed with a design or print. In this case, printing may be performed by applying a design or printing to the plain plastic member 40a by a printing method such as an inkjet method, a gravure printing method, or a thermal transfer method. This printing may be applied to the plastic member 40a before being attached to the preform 10a, or may be applied while the plastic member 40a is provided outside the preform 10a. In this case, images and characters can be displayed on the bottle 10A without attaching a separate label or the like to the bottle body 10 after blow molding. For example, the body 20 of the bottle body 10 may be entirely or partially provided with a plastic member 40 to display an image or characters on the body 20 . In this case, the plastic member 40 may be made of the same material as the bottle body 10 or may be made of a material different from that of the bottle body 10 .

Furthermore, when the contents of the bottle 10A are filled with alcohol or the like, it is preferable to use a heat-shrinkable tube as the plastic member 40a.

Next, the content L filled in the bottle body 10 will be described. The content L filled in the bottle body 10 is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, fruit wine or sake. In the present specification, the term "fruit wine" includes not only those defined by the Liquor Tax Act of Japan, but also "sweet fruit wine" under the Liquor Tax Act.

Between the cap main body 61 and the ring 62, a rupture portion 60a having notches provided periodically is formed, and the cap main body 61 and the ring 62 can be ruptured along this rupture portion 60a.

The cap body 61 also has a flat plate-like top surface 63 , a tubular portion 64 extending from the top surface 63 , and a female screw portion (not shown) formed on the inner surface of the tubular portion 64 . The cap 60 is attached to the mouth portion 11 of the bottle body 10 by screwing the female thread portion of the cap body 61 into the male thread portion 14 of the mouth portion 11 of the bottle body 10 .

Next, the support container 80 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 6 and 12 to 17. FIG. Support container 80 has a bottom portion 81 and side portions 82 connected to bottom portion 81 . Of these, the bottom portion 81 has a substantially disc shape with a substantially uniform diameter (see FIGS. 1, 3, 4, and 13 to 17). The bottom portion 81 also has a recess 83 located in the center and a grounding portion 84 provided around the recess 83 (see FIGS. 1, 4, 14, 16 and 17). Of these, the recessed portion 83 has a shape gently curved from the grounding portion 84 toward the center. The shape of the bottom portion 81 is not particularly limited, and may have, for example, a round bottom shape. Such a support container 80 may be an injection-molded, compression-molded, or injection-compression-molded article made from a synthetic resin material, as will be described later.

1, 3 and 6, the contour of the outer surface of the side portion 82 of the support container 80 smoothly continues to the contour of the body portion 20 of the bottle body 10 in the vertical cross section. That is, in the vertical cross section, the portion of the trunk portion 20 excluding the R portion 20b and the portion of the side portion 82 excluding the R portion 82a are formed in a substantially arc shape, and the portion of the trunk portion 20 excluding the R portion 20b is extended. A curved line C1 extending from the side portion 82 except for the R portion 82a circumscribes the curved line C2. (See Figure 6). In addition, in FIG. 6, the shapes of the bottle body 10 and the support container 80 are exaggerated. In addition, circumscribing means not only circumscribing but also circumscribing by design. Including cases where deformation due to In this way, the outline of the outer surface of the support container 80 smoothly continues to the outline of the body portion 20 in the vertical section, so that the sense of unity between the support container 80 and the bottle body 10 can be enhanced. The design is improved. Further, as shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 12, 13, 16 and 17, the side portion 82 has a curved shape that curves from the outside toward the inside in the vertical section. . The combined body 1 in which the support container 80 and the bottle 10A are combined has a shape as a whole, for example, a combination of a sake cup and a sake bottle, and can obtain a visual effect rich in design. Moreover, the assembly 1 has a shape suitable for containing sake, for example. That is, since the combined body 1 has a shape as a combination of, for example, a choko cup and a sake bottle as a whole, when sake is stored in the combined body 1, it can be visually recognized that the content L is sake. It is possible to make children aware of this, and it is possible to prevent children from drinking sake by mistake. Since the support container 80 can support the upside down bottle 10A, the assembly 1 can be displayed in an inverted state when sold at a retail store or the like. In this case as well, the combined body 1 has a container-like shape with a sense of unity as a whole, so that it is possible to obtain a visual effect rich in design.

Also, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 13 , a labeling region 85 for affixing a label is provided on a portion of the outer surface of the side portion 82 of the support container 80 . Thereby, a label can be attached to the outer surface of the support container 80, and the design of the support container 80 can be improved. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3(c), the label 85a may be attached or mounted across the bottle 10A and the support container 80. As shown in FIG. In this case, the label 85a may be affixed to a portion of the bottle 10A and the support container 80 in the circumferential direction, or may be attached over the entire circumference of the bottle 10A and the support container 80. This can prevent the support container 80 from detaching from the bottle 10A when it is displayed at a retail store or the like.

1, 12, 15 and 16, the inner surface of the side portion 82 is formed with a protrusion 86 extending from the inner surface of the bottom portion 81 in a direction away from the bottom portion 81. As shown in FIGS. A plurality (eight locations in the present embodiment) of the protrusions 86 are formed at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction. Such protrusions 86 may engage with the tubular portion 64 of the cap 60 when the support container 80 is combined with the bottle 10A. In this case, for example, the cap 60 may be fitted into the support container 80 by utilizing the flexibility (elasticity) of the protrusion 86 made of a synthetic resin material. Alternatively, the support container 80 and the cap 60 may be screwed together by providing a male threaded portion (not shown) on the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 64 of the cap 60 and a female threaded portion (not shown) on the protrusion 86 . When the support container 80 and the cap 60 are screwed together, the protrusion 86 may be formed over the entire circumference. By engaging the projecting portion 86 and the cylindrical portion 64 in this way, positional displacement between the bottle 10A and the support container 80 can be prevented, and the bottle 10A and the support container 80 can be combined stably. Further, the projecting portion 86 is detachably engaged with the cap 60, so that the support container 80 can be easily separated from the bottle 10A. Therefore, when taking out the content L from the bottle 10A, the support container 80 can be easily removed from the bottle 10A. Note that, as shown in FIG. 17, the portion of the side portion 82 where the protrusion 86 is not formed has a substantially uniform thickness.

Such a support container 80 can be produced by injection molding, compression molding, or injection compression molding of a synthetic resin material. Examples of materials for the support container 80 include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, poly-4-methylpentene-1, polystyrene, AS resin, ABS resin, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, and polyvinyl acetate. , polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetal, polyvinyl butyral, diallyl phthalate resin, fluorine resin, polymethyl methacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polymethyl acrylate, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylamide, polybutadiene, polybutene-1, polyisoprene, polychloroprene , ethylene propylene rubber, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, acrylic rubber, silicone rubber, fluororubber, nylon 6, nylon 6,6, nylon MXD6, aromatic polyamide, polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene butylene terephthalate, polynaphthalene ethylene , ionomer resin, U polymer, liquid crystal polymer, modified polyphenylene ether, polyetherketone, polyetheretherketone, unsaturated polyester, alkyd resin, polyimide, polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, polyethersulfone, silicone resin, polyurethane, phenolic resin, urea Resins, polyethylene oxides, polypropylene oxides, polyacetals, epoxy resins and the like can be mentioned. Of these, it is preferable to use thermoplastic non-elastic resins such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). A blend material, a multilayer structure, or a partially multilayer structure may also be used. In addition to the main component resin, various additives may be added to the material of the plastic member 40a as long as the characteristics of the plastic member 40a are not impaired. Additives include, for example, plasticizers, ultraviolet stabilizers, anti-coloring agents, matting agents, deodorants, flame retardants, weathering agents, antistatic agents, thread friction reducing agents, slip agents, release agents, anti- Oxidizing agents, ion exchange agents, color pigments, and the like can be added.
