 The present invention will be described in more detail based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a beverage can that is integrally held by using the container holder according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of an essential part showing the structure of a fitting portion. In the present embodiment, the case where the container is a beverage can will be described as an example. Reference numeral C is a beverage can that is integrally held by using the container holder A, and includes a container holder A and six beverage cans C1. The container holder A includes a container cap 1 and a band B. The container cap 1 is made of polypropylene and has flexibility and sufficient strength.

The container cap 1 has a cap 10 having a substantially rectangular shape in plan view, which can collectively surround the upper portions of the six beverage cans C1. The cap 10 is provided with fitting portions 11 that are circular in a plan view and are provided at six positions so as to project upward one step. An engaging portion 12 bulging inward is provided on the inner peripheral surface of each fitting portion 11 over substantially the entire circumference. Further, on the inner peripheral portion of each fitting portion 11, air vent portions 13 that bulge outward are provided at eight locations at equal intervals.

On the upper part of each fitting portion 11, there is provided a fitting base portion 17 that projects one step upward and is substantially circular in a plan view. The fitting table 17 is provided in a shape that fits into a recess in the bottom surface of the beverage can C1 placed on top. Engagement openings 14 for attaching the handle 2 are provided at two locations at a required distance in the center of the cap 10. The engaging opening 14 is provided with a substantially oval notch, leaving a part thereof, whereby a lid-like stop piece 15 inclined upward is formed at the edge of the engaging opening 14. I am doing it. Further, between each fitting portion 11, there are provided a plurality of reinforcing strips 16 for increasing the rigidity of the container cap 1.

The handle 2 is formed in a substantially U shape, and the grip portion 20 is formed slightly wider so that it can be easily held. The size of the handle 2 is set so that, when the handle 2 is laid down sideways, the handle 2 is placed outside the beverage can C1 that is placed and fitted on the fitting base 17 on one side of the central portion. Engaging pieces 21 (see FIG. 3) are attached to the base ends of both sides of the handle 2 in an inclined manner, and claw-shaped stoppers 22 are provided near the base ends. The handle 2 is attached to the container cap 1 by inserting the engaging piece 21 into the engaging opening 14 and engaging the engaging piece 21 with the edge portion of the engaging opening. As a result, the handle 2 is normally tilted sideways by the action of the engaging piece 21 and the stop piece 15, and the stopper 22 is brought into contact with the stop piece 15 from above and hooked.

The strip B is made of a synthetic resin that can be slightly stretched, and is formed in a ring shape with a required width. The entire length of the band B is set such that when the six beverage cans C1 are fitted into the container cap 1, the beverage cans C1 can be tightly tightened and integrated. Further, the advertisement character B1 is displayed on the surface of the strip B. The material of the band B is not limited to the synthetic resin, and a material such as paper which does not extend or hardly expands may be used. Further, the band B may be formed in a required length so as to form a ring shape by connecting the ends when surrounding the beverage can C1, and the width is not limited and can be set appropriately.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory view showing a state in which beverage cans are fitted into the container cap and stacked. With reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the operation of the container holder shown in the present embodiment and the beverage can integrally held by the container holder will be described. First, six beverage cans C1 are arranged in three rows in two rows, the strips B are attached from the top, and the beverage cans C1 are tightened and integrated. As a result, a gap is formed between the border of each beverage can C1 and the band B so that a finger can be hung on it. Next, the container cap 1 is covered from above, and each fitting portion 11 is pressed and fitted onto the upper portion of the beverage can C1. Since the fitting part 11 is provided with the air vent part 13, when fitting the upper part of the beverage can C1, the air inside is smoothly discharged and the fitting can be fitted easily.

When carrying the beverage cans C integrally held by the container holder A, the sideways tilted handle 2 is raised and held by hand to cooperate. The strength of the container cap 1 as a whole is sufficient due to the action of the reinforcing strips 16 provided between the fitting portions 11 and the like, so that it is difficult to be deformed. It is easy to use and does not wobble or wobble. Further, if an advertisement is printed on the strip B, a sales promotion effect can be expected. Further, since the band B can be hooked with a finger, it is convenient and easy to take out, for example, when the beverage cans C that are integrally held in the back of the refrigerator of the retail store are stacked and accommodated.

Since the conventional handle has a structure in which it is housed between the fitting portions in the central portion of the container cap 1, when the width of the handle is wide, the space between the fitting portions 11 and 11 is large. The container cap 1 could not be made compact because it had to be wide. On the other hand, in the present invention, the handle 2 is tilted sideways so that it can be placed outside the beverage can C1 placed on the fitting base 17 on one side of the central part, so that the fitting part 11 and By narrowing the space between the fitting portions 11 until the fitted beverage cans C1 come into contact with each other, and making the container cap 1 compact, the width of the grip portion 20 of the handle 2 can be formed to be easy to hold.

When the beverage can C1 is fitted into the container cap 1 and the beverage can C1 is stacked with the band B tightened, the handle 2 is attached to the fitting base 17 of the beverage can C1. Since it is rotated to the outside, the handle 2 does not get in the way when stacking. In addition, since the bottom of each beverage can C1 is fitted and placed on the fitting base 17, the position of the beverage can C1 is stable and stable even when stacked. Further, since the stopper 22 is provided on the handle 2, and the stopper 22 is brought into contact with the stop piece 15, the handle 2 does not enter from the engaging opening 14 below. It is easy to work without the hassle of pulling it out when carrying it. Since the stop piece 15 is provided with a notch in a state in which a part of the stop piece 15 is connected, the stop piece 15 does not fall off during manufacturing, and one step for treating the fallen piece can be omitted, which leads to cost down. The present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the claims for utility model registration.
