Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a paper cup with a lid, which is suitable for use when selling juices and the like in stores and the like.

Conventionally, when selling juices etc. at stores etc., after filling the juice into a paper cup, the cup is covered with a plastic molded lid with a straw insertion hole. It is necessary to prepare both a plastic cup and a plastic molded lid, and it is troublesome to set them both before use.

This can manifest itself in various ways, such as the paper cup and the lid not matching in quantity, or the fit of the lid varying in tightness or looseness. It is unexpectedly large.

On the other hand, plastic molded lids have the drawback of being difficult to dispose of, and improvements have been desired from this point as well.

The present invention overcomes these difficulties with conventional containers.

To explain one embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings, Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a paper cup with a lid according to the present invention, and shows the upper end of the body of the paper cup, which is made by attaching the body and attaching the bottom in the same way as a normal paper cup. A lid part 1 having folded lines a, l) and a straw insertion hole 2 near the opening. It has been established that

The broken lines a and l) are provided in the shape of an arc extending downward from points A and B at both ends of the arbitrary diameter R of the upper end opening of the body on both sides of the diameter R.

Further, the lid part 1 is formed from the upper part of the broken line a, and the upper end side of the lid part 1 is formed approximately symmetrically with the broken line a with respect to the line m connecting points A and B.

Further, the straw insertion hole 2 is provided near the approximate center of the line m.

Note that the broken lines a and b are provided approximately symmetrically with respect to the diameter R.

Further, the straw insertion hole 2 may be a punched hole or may be formed by an X-shaped cut line.

When assembling and using the package, after filling the contents,
After folding the lid part 1 along the fold line a as shown in FIG. Fold it over to complete the assembly.

At this time, the straw insertion hole 2 is covered by the edge of the overlapping portion 3, and the top of the cup is completely closed.

When eating or drinking, as shown in Fig. 3, press the area near points A and B of the filled and closed object approximately horizontally inward as shown by arrows P and P with your fingers. As shown in the figure, both the lid part 1 and the overlapping part 3 are bent along the bend line a while increasing the degree of curvature.
.

Move so that part b moves outward by 5 degrees.

That is, the lid portion 1 is displaced toward the fold line a, and the overlapping portion 3 is displaced toward the fold line.

As a result of this positional shift, the straw 4 is inserted into the exposed straw insertion hole 2 because the drawer insertion hole 2 is removed from the overlapping covering by the edge of the overlapping portion 3 and exposed. ,
Next, if the pressing force from the fingers in the directions of arrows P and P is removed, the force that supports the displacement of the lid part 1 and the overlapping part 3 due to the pressing force disappears, so that both the lid part 1 and the overlapping part 3 are moved inward, that is, in the opposite direction. , the straw 4 tries to return to the direction of the inserted straw 4, and eventually the straw 4 is firmly held between the cut end surface of the paper on the fold line a side of the straw insertion hole 2 and the cut end surface of the tip of the overlapping part 3. Fixed.

Therefore, the person eating and drinking can safely eat and drink the contents through this firmly fixed straw 4.

In addition, when selling at a store, the straw 4 may be handed to the purchaser in the closed state as shown in Figure 3, or the straw 4 may be handed to the purchaser with the straw 4 inserted as shown in Figure 4. It's okay.

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, there is no need to prepare and set both a paper cup and a plastic molded lid, which is the case with conventional cups.
With an extremely simple structure that only requires a fold line on a part of the container body, part of the container body can be used as a lid, and a straw can be inserted and fixed with one touch, creating a unique and interesting shape. Because of this, the exhibition and sales effect can be enhanced.
It is easy to dispose of, is much easier and cheaper to manufacture than traditional paper cups and plastic molded lids, and is much easier to manufacture than traditional paper cups and plastic molded lids; It has various remarkable effects such as being able to further enhance the display and sales effect since beautiful printing can be applied to the parts.
