2. Description of the Related Art As a case for dispensing granules or the like for use in dispensing, for example, a case in which a dispensing hole provided in a case body is opened and closed by a slidable lid has been known. ing. In addition, there is also a method in which the bottom member and the lid member are integrally formed by fitting a plurality of sets of concave and convex bosses projecting from the respective inner surfaces of the case. Then, the case for putting in the cooling granules or the like and dispensing the same is used to make the case thin so as to improve portability. The uneven boss has an extremely small diameter, and in the process of assembling the case, a problem may occur due to the breakage of the boss, particularly the convex boss.
Further, in such a case, the contents and the case may be damaged by the pressurization from the top surface or the bottom surface during use. This is because, when fitting the bottom member and the lid member with the concave and convex bosses, when the tip of the convex boss contacts the innermost portion of the concave boss, a plurality of sets of concave and convex bosses do not contact uniformly, If only the concave and convex bosses come into contact,
When the load concentrates on the convex boss and the boss breaks,
There was a risk of damage to the contents or the top or bottom of the case. In addition, when a cooling granular material or the like is put in this kind of case and used for dispensing, as a situation at the time of use or a problem of a user, the dispensing position, that is, the position of the cap is sometimes difficult to understand. For example, when the surroundings are dark, when dispensing in a pocket, or when the user is an infant or a visually impaired person, it is difficult to immediately determine the position with a conventional cap. . Also, in the thin case composed of the bottom member and the lid member, warpage and deformation due to the difference in the shrinkage ratio of the molten resin depending on the portion may occur particularly on the top surface and the bottom surface during injection molding.
