Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a soft drink container in which a drinking spout is integrally formed with the container body.

[Conventional technology]

Various types of soft drink containers have been known in the past in which a drinking spout is integrally formed with the container body, and a representative example is a container body made of synthetic resin with a lid on the top, and a container body made of synthetic resin. It consisted of a groove provided from the lower end of the outer surface to the vicinity of the upper end, and a drinking spout communicating with the lower part of the container body.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the soft drink container according to the conventional example, the soft drink content is drunk by holding the drinking spout in the mouth and sucking it.
Since there are no air holes, the air pressure inside the container body decreases after drinking to a certain extent, making it impossible to drink any more. There was a problem in that it was very troublesome to have to drink it again after returning it to its original state.

Of course, using soft synthetic resin for the container body,
The above problem can be easily solved by pressing the container body with your hand while drinking the soft drink.
In this case, when the content of the soft drink runs low, the container body collapses, making it difficult to hold.

This invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and it is necessary to prevent the container body from collapsing when drinking the soft drink content, and to introduce air into the container body from the spout no matter how many drinks are consumed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a soft drink container in which the air hole is opened at the same time as the spout tube is removed from the container body.

[Means for solving problems]

A soft drink container according to the present invention that solves the above-mentioned problems is provided with a groove on the outer surface of the container body made of synthetic resin from the lower end to the vicinity of the upper end, and the groove is provided with a groove on the inside of the bottom of the container body. In a soft drink container, the drinking spout tube is formed in a manner that the drinking spout tube is connected and has a bellows part formed at the lower part, and is formed so as to be branchable except for the lower end. A connected air hole is provided, and the air hole is opened by separating the upper part of the drinking spout from the container body.

[Effect]

In the soft drink container according to the present invention, a drinking spout is integrally formed in a container body made of synthetic resin, and an air hole is connected to the top of the drinking spout at the top of the container body in a closed state. is provided, and the air hole is opened by separating the upper part of the spout tube from the container body, so by opening the air hole and holding the spout tube in your mouth, you can see the juice inside. When you drink a soft drink, air will be introduced through the air holes.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments embodying the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings to provide an understanding of the present invention.

Here, FIG. 1 is a side sectional view of a soft drink container according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of a section C in FIG. It is a side sectional view showing a state of use.

As shown in FIG. 1, a soft drink container 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a container body 32 made of a hard synthetic resin that retains its shape and has a lid 31 on the top; A concave groove 33 provided from the lower end to the vicinity of the upper end of the outer surface of the container communicates with the inside of the bottom of the container body 32, and a bellows part 34 is formed in the middle part and a constricted part 35 is formed in the tip part. The mouthpiece 36 has an air hole 38 formed at the upper part of the mouthpiece 36 and opened by operating the knob 37. These will be explained in detail below.

The container body 32 is made of a shape-retaining material such as hard polyethylene, and has a semicircular groove 33 formed on its outer surface from the lower end of the side surface to near the upper end. When the spout tube 36 is inserted, the lower end of the spout tube 36 is connected to the container body 32.
It communicates with the inside of the bottom.

The drinking spout cylinder 36 is formed entirely into a pipe shape, and a bellows portion 34 is formed slightly below the middle portion, and the tip portion becomes a constricted portion 35 with a reduced diameter, and a flat knob portion 37 is formed at the tip portion. are formed continuously, and as shown in FIG. A portion is formed so as to be branchable from the groove 33, and a drinking spout cylinder 36
For example, the thickness of the connection part 40 between the drinking spout 36 and the container body 32 in the lower part of the bellows part 34 is thick, and the thickness of the connection part 40 in the lower part of the bellows part 34 is thick. The connection part 40 up to the knob part 37 is
Connected by a thin membrane.

Here, the air hole 38 is provided at the upper part of the groove 33 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and is formed by pulling the knob 37 laterally as shown in FIG. The opening is cut from the constricted portion 39 to form a hole. Here, the dotted line shown in FIG. 2 indicates a thin portion of the connecting portion between the spout tube 36 and the container body 32.

Next, to explain in more detail how to use and function this soft drink container 30, after pouring a predetermined amount of soft drink into the container body 32, the heat-shrinkable lid 31 that has been fitted is heated with hot air. It is sealed to the container main body 32 by, for example, the container body 32.

After being filled with soft drinks in this manner, it is wrapped in wrapping paper (not shown) and sent to the market.

Next, the soft drink 41 inside the soft drink container 30 is drunk.
7 to the side as shown in FIG. 3, the connection part 40 between the bellows part 34 and the upper knob part 37 of the drinking spout pipe 36 is easily separated from the container body 32 because it has a thin membrane shape. At the same time, the air hole 38 opens. Then, the portion of the constricted portion 35 is cut to open the drinking spout cylinder 36.

Then, when drinking the soft drink 41 by holding the cut part of the drinking spout 36 in the mouth and bending the drinking spout 36 at the bellows part 34 and keeping the inclination angle at an appropriate angle, air is introduced from the air hole 38. Therefore, the user can continue drinking the soft drink 41.

[Effect of idea]

As is clear from the above description, the soft drink container according to the present invention has a drinking spout formed integrally with the container body made of synthetic resin, and an air hole that can be opened at the top of the container body during use. Since the holes are formed, when you open the air holes and hold the drinking spout tube in your mouth to drink a soft drink such as juice inside, air is introduced through the air holes, so you can drink as much as you like. However, there is no need to introduce air into the container body from the drinking spout, so you can continue drinking.

Since this air hole opens at the same time as the drinking spout is removed from the groove of the container body, even a person who does not know how to open the air hole can smoothly drink the soft drink inside.
