As shown in FIG. 4, the bent center elastic piece (120) of the snap hinge of the above-mentioned cap with snap hinge has a lid-side piece (121) and an insertion-side piece. The lid side piece (121) is attached to the top plate (110) of the lid section (100), and the insertion side piece (122) is attached to the hinge mounting plate (131) of the insertion piece (130). Are connected via hinges (101, 102). However, when a container with a cap with a snap hinge attached to the mouth and neck of the container body filled with the contents receives an impact force on the top surface of the cap due to dropping, etc., the impact force is particularly applied to the lid side piece of the elastic piece. When it is received, the impact force is transmitted from the lid side piece to the insertion piece side piece, and this impact force concentrates on the hinge connected to the hinge attachment plate of the insertion piece, causing the hinge to break or cracking the hinge attachment plate. Sometimes happened.
