Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a container that normally makes opening the lid troublesome and prevents children, etc. from easily opening the lid. A lid 5 whose top surface is the same height as or lower than the upper edge of the container 1 is applied to the container body 1 provided with the connected semi-free pieces 3, and the semi-free pieces 3 are attached to the peripheral wall 2.
It is characterized in that it is formed as a part of the upper part and its outer surface is flush with the upper part of the peripheral wall 2.

The container body 1 is made of synthetic resin, and includes semi-free pieces 3.
The main body 1 and the thin wall portion 4 are cut away at both upper edges and the lower side, respectively.

The semi-free piece 3 may optionally be provided at one location on the upper edge of the main body 1 or at two opposing locations. Although a semi-free piece 3 is shown in the large diameter part, it is not necessary to provide a bulging large diameter part as in the third illustrated example. Of course, it can be applied to shaped containers, etc.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the lid 5 and the container body 1 are integrally molded on one side with a strip 6, and a half piece is formed on the upper edge of the body 1 opposite to the connection. The figure is shown with a free piece 3 formed thereon.

In the container of the present invention, the top surface of the lid 5 attached to the main body 1 is set at the same level as or lower than the upper edge of the main body 1, so that under normal conditions, the lid 5 can be opened by placing a finger, nail, or an instrument on the lid 5. Although it is very difficult to do so, in each of the above embodiments, by pushing the semi-free piece 3 outward as shown by the chain line, the thin wall portions 4 at the upper portions of both sides of the semi-free piece 3 are broken and the semi-free piece 3 is opened outward. Alternatively, if the lower thin piece 4 is also broken and the semi-free piece 3 is removed, the side surface of the lid 5 is exposed, making it possible to easily open the lid with your fingers.
Thereafter, the lid 5 can be opened and closed repeatedly.

Note that it is optional to form hooks for fingers, nails, instruments, etc. on the circumferential surface of the lid 5.

According to the present invention, when the lid is closed, the top surface of the lid 5 is the container body 1.
Because it is at the same height or lower than the upper edge of the lid 5, it is impossible to put fingers, nails, tools, etc. on the circumference of the lid 5, making it difficult to open the lid and preventing children from opening the lid. When opening the lid, the thin wall portion 4 connecting to the container body can be broken and the semi-free piece 3 can be opened or removed to expose the circumferential surface of the lid 5, making it extremely easy to open. Since the lid can be closed and a special operation is required to remove the semi-free piece 3 when the lid is opened, it can be stored in a safe sealed state, and the semi-free piece 3 is formed as a part of the upper part of the peripheral wall 2. Since its outer surface is flush with the upper part of the peripheral wall 2, and there is no protrusion in this part, the thin wall part 4 will not be inadvertently broken due to contact with other objects when handling the container 1, and can be used at stores etc. container 1
Even if the semi-free piece 3 is removed when opening the lid, the outer circumferential surface of the lid 5 applied to the container 1 is protected by the upper part of the peripheral wall 2 excluding the semi-free piece 3, making it easy to open the lid. It has the effect of preventing the lid from forming.
