[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to a sealing plug with a straw.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 I. In the conventional opening of cans such as juice, a pre-cut line is provided on the surface of the can body, and an opening metal fitting with a handle is provided at the end of the opening. It was done by cutting through and making a hole in the can. In this case, the handle metal fittings caused by the can body and a part of the can body at the opening that is integrally separated are separated from the can body, and are often thrown away after the can is opened. Has become one of. Also, the surface of the opening of the can is exposed to the outside air, so it is likely to be dirty, and it is unsanitary unless the area around the opening is wiped when drinking the contents of the can. It was B. In recent years i. The metal fitting with the opening handle described in Section 1 above does not separate it from the can body, but once the metal fitting with the handle is opened, the opening can body is torn by the preliminary cut line portion and folded inside the can. A method has also been developed in which the handle is returned to the original position to create the opening, and the metal fitting with the handle need not be separated from the can body.However, even in this case, the opening body folded inside the can is exposed to the outside air. Since it is the exposed part, dirt may be pushed inside the can, and when drinking the contents of the can from the opening formed in the can, it is unsanitary unless you wipe the area around the opening. Certain drawbacks have not been resolved.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the present invention]

 The invention is

A. B. The purpose is to make the opening in the can and make it possible to drink the contents of the can in a hygienic manner without the drawbacks described in paragraph 1, ie, the opening metal fittings and the like being separated from the can body.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The conventional opening of canned juice, etc. was inevitably non-hygienic because it was made by cutting the can body and drinking it by directly touching the opening. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, the opening was shielded from the outside air beforehand, and a straw that was hygienically managed at the factory was opened so that the opening cap could be opened and the contents could be drunk. The present invention is as follows.

That is, a straw 1 and a straw 2 are provided on a straw holder 6 having a mounting flange 10 for a can body 14, a cap seal portion 8 and an air hole 13, and a cap 7 having an opening handle 11 and a seal portion 9 is connected. It is a closed stopper with a straw having a cap 7 integrally molded with a straw holder 6 via a portion 12. The straw 1 has a collar 5 at the upper end and a flare 3 at the lower end, has a diaphragm 4 at the upper end, and has a lower end inside a straw 2 bent to reach a bottom corner 15 of the can body 14. It is installed. The straw 2 is fixed to the strobe holder 6. The straw juice sealing stopper configured as described above. Further, the straw 1 may have a structure having an expandable and contractible bellows portion 18 at the upper end thereof, and the lower end portion thereof may be a single straw bent so as to reach the bottom corner portion 15 of the can. At this time, the straw 1 is fixed to the straw holder 6. At this time, the upper end of the straw 1 may be sealed or may be left open, and the projection 16 of the cap 7 may or may not be provided. Alternatively, the straw holder 6 and the cap 7 may be separate parts, and a part of the cap 7 may be adhered to the upper surface of the flange portion 10 of the straw holder 7 to form an elliptic closure.

[0006]

[Operation] By holding the opening handle 11 at the front edge of the cap 7 and raising the cap 7, the straw 1 is pulled out of the upper surface of the can to drink the contents, so that it can be used hygienically and without producing dust. You can

[0007]

【Example】

 Example 1. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing the first embodiment. In this case, the straw 2 is provided in the straw holder 6 having the mounting flange 10 to the can body 14 and the cap seal portion 8 and the air hole 13, and the cap 7 having the opening 11 and the seal portion 9 is connected via the connecting portion 12. A closed stopper with a straw having a cap 7 integrally molded with the row holder 6 is used.

Example 2. FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing the second embodiment. In the first embodiment, the upper end surface of the straw 1 remains open, and the air hole 13 of the straw holder 6 is in a penetrating state. Therefore, the liquid in the can flows out into the small space 19 formed between the straw holder 6 and the cap 7, and the sealing with the outside is performed by the seal portion 8 of the straw holder 16 and the seal portion 9 of the cap 7. There is only a single seal part. Of course, the above-mentioned seal portion is firmly fitted even when there is no internal pressure, and when internal pressure is applied, the seal portion 9 of the cap 7 is attached to the seal portion 8 of the straw holder 6 by the internal pressure. Since it is pressed and increases the sealing function, it can be sufficiently used for beverage cans that generate internal pressure, such as carbonated drinks and beer. Therefore, in the second embodiment. In order to complete this sealing function, a removable seal 17 is attached to the upper surface of the upper end flange 5 of the straw 1, and the straw holder 6 is provided inside the cap 7. In addition, a protrusion 16 for closing the air hole 13 is integrally provided. By doing so, the pressure in the can is sealed between the lower flare 3 of the straw 1 and the inner surface of the straw 2, and the inner pressure transmitted through the straw 1 by the straw upper surface seal 17 is sealed at the upper end of the straw 1. . The air hole 13 of the straw holder 6 is closed and sealed by the projection 16 provided on the cap 7. Therefore, in Example 2. In the first embodiment, the sealing function inside and outside the can is used in the first embodiment. Is increased compared to.

Example 3. Figure 5. 6A is a cross-sectional view showing Embodiment 3. FIG. Example 1 In Example 2, both straws are two straws, straw 1 and straw 2, and the straw 2 is fixed to the straw holder 6 and the straw 1 is placed inside the straw 2. The straw 1 was used by pulling it up. Example 3. In this case, the bellows 18 is provided on the upper portion of the straw 1, that is, outside the portion fixed to the straw holder, and the straw 1 is moved upward after the cap 7 is removed. The straw is pulled out by the expansion and contraction of the bellows and used.

Example 4. Figure 6. Shows Example 4. Example 1. Example 2. Example 3. In both cases, the straw holder 6 and the cap 7 have an integral structure at the connecting portion 12, but in the fourth embodiment. In this case, the straw holder 6 and the cap 7 are separate parts, and the opposite side 20 of the opening handle 11 of the cap 7 is bonded to the upper surface of the mounting flange 10 of the straw holder 6 to the can body 14, It is a sealed stopper with a straw.

[Effect of device]

 If you drink the contents from a canned beverage equipped with a sealing stopper with a straw according to the present invention, 1. Even if the cap is removed, the cap remains on the body of the can, which prevents the cap from being thrown away. 2. The straw is kept hygienically in the cap, which protects it from external surface contamination during can transport and storage. 3. If you need to remove the cap, peel off the sticker on the top of the straw, and you can drink the contents of the can from the straw that is kept hygienically, so you can drink the contents safely without worrying about damage from dirt and pathogens. It's done, and it's easy to drink from the straw. 4. Since the sealing plug with a straw according to the present invention can be provided at the center of the circular end surface of the can, even if the can is accidentally tilted with the drinking water in the can left unfilled, the liquid inside the can remains open. Since it is located closer to the surface, the amount of spillage is smaller than when there is an opening at the edge of the can end surface. This is very effective considering the use of the drive in the car. 5. Since the lower part of the straw is bent and its lower end is positioned at the corner of the can bottom, most of the total amount of drinking water in the can can be drunk.
