Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an improvement in a poly-filled beverage that is integrally molded from a plastic material, filled with drinking water, and sealed. In particular, it relates to plastic-packed beverages that are drunk through straws.

[Prior Art] Until now, plastic-packed drinks filled with soft drinks, fruit drinks, etc. and sealed have been very popular as favorite items for children, but because the containers are flexible,
When opening the drinking spout, which has a protruding molded end, the container deforms due to the force of gripping the container and the beverage overflows from the drinking spout, easily staining hands, clothes, the floor, etc.
Therefore, it had a drawback that it was not suitable as a drink for adults.

For this reason, when children drank this type of plastic-packed beverage, they would bite off the spout with their teeth to open the container and pour the overflowing beverage into their mouths. However, in the case of recently developed containers with a non-ventilated three-layer structure for filling carbonated drinks or highly concentrated lactic acid drinks, the strength and hardness of the drinking spout increases, making it difficult to open with teeth. unable to
The package must be opened using a cutting tool such as scissors, but this method has the disadvantage of easily staining hands and surroundings, as described above.

[Purpose of the invention] The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks by creating a straw that can be easily opened without using teeth or scissors, does not stain hands or the surrounding area with drinking water, and is hygienic. The purpose is to provide poly-packed beverages.

[Structure of the invention] The present invention is provided with a sealed outlet in a part of the container, a straw having a protrusion facing the outlet, and one end of which is connectable to the outlet. When one end of the straw is connected to the outlet, the protrusion is inserted into the outlet so that the inside of the container and the straw communicate with each other.

In addition, if a straw is provided protruding from the discharge port, a male screw is formed around the discharge port, and a female screw is formed inside one end of the straw to be screwed into the male screw, it will be easier to screw these screws. This is preferable because the protrusion gradually penetrates into the container through the outlet with a slight external force.

Furthermore, if the straw is made flexible, the angle of the drinking spout can be changed to a desired angle, making it easier to drink.

[Example] An explanation will be given below based on the drawings of the embodiment.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, 10 is a container, 11
is a straw. The container 10 and the straw 11 are each integrally molded from plastic material. The container 10 is filled with a soft drink D and sealed with a molded end 12.

Drinking water D is placed near the molded end 12 of this container 10.
A discharge port 13 for discharging the water is provided in a protruding manner. This discharge port 13 has a male thread formed around it, and its upper part is sealed with a discharge surface 13a. Further, the straw 11 has one end 15 formed into a cap shape, and as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, a female thread is formed on the cap-shaped inner wall of the one end 15 to be screwed into the above-mentioned male thread, and the upper surface 16 thereof is formed with a female thread that is screwed into the male thread. A projection 17 is provided vertically. This protrusion 17 is formed shorter than the length of the female screw, and is embedded within one end 15. The protrusion 17 is connected to three right triangular pieces 17a, 17b, and 17c at an opening angle α of 120 degrees, with one side being a common side, and the tip of the protrusion 17 faces the discharge port 13, and the base end thereof is connected to the straw body 18 which opens through the upper surface 16. This straw body 18
is shaped like a bellows and is flexible. The other end 19 of the straw 11 is opened.

To open a poly-packed beverage with this structure,
First, connect the female screw at one end 15 of the straw 11 to the outlet 1.
3 and rotate one end 15, and stop when the protrusion 17 abuts the discharge surface 13a of the discharge port 13. In this state, the other end 19 of the straw 11
When you put it in your mouth and further rotate one end 15, the protrusion 17 moves with a slight force to the discharge surface 1 of the discharge port 13.
It gradually reaches 3a. In the completely screwed state, the projection 17 penetrates into the discharge port 13 and the container 10 is opened, as shown in FIG. If the drinker sucks the other end 19 of the straw 11, the drinking water D in the container 10 enters the drinker's mouth without overflowing. Since the straw 11 is flexible, it is possible to drink at a desired angle.

In the above example, the discharge port 13 is provided near the forming end 12, but it may be provided on the bottom surface on the opposite side to the forming end 12, as shown in FIG.

Further, the number of small pieces constituting the protrusion 17 is not limited to three, and the shape may be a hollow cone, pyramid, or the like with a portion of the apex or side surface cut out.

Further, the discharge port 13 may be recessed to form a female thread, and one end 15 of the straw 11 may be formed with a male thread so that the protrusion at the tip of the male thread breaks through the discharge surface when screwed together.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, according to the invention, a sealed outlet is provided separately from the molded end that is the conventional drinking spout, and a protrusion is provided at one end of a separately prepared straw. If the protrusion penetrates into the outlet and drinks at the same time as the container is connected, the user can drink the drinking water with one touch without spilling a single drop, and will not stain his hands, clothes, floor, etc. It's also more hygienic because you don't touch the container directly, and you can enjoy drinking with a straw.

In particular, if the outlet and one end of the straw are connected with a screw, even if the container has a three-layer structure,
The outlet can be opened with a small amount of force, making it easy for even young children to drink.

Furthermore, by making the straw flexible, it is possible to drink from a desired angle.
