Abstract

A foldable silicone container structure mainly comprises several layers of annular walls sequentially and upwardly connected and assembled into a peripheral wall surface by connection parts to form a silicone container main body having an opening facing upwards, wherein each connection part is annular and is transversely extended and vertically arranged. The thickness of each connection part is smaller than the thickness of each annular wall, and one end of each layer of the annular wall close to the adjacent connection part has a tapered shape to be connected to the connection part, while each layer of the annular wall and each connection part are respectively disposed with an angle tilting relative to a vertical surface to have a slope, and the slopes of each layer of the annular wall and each connection part are continuously varied sequentially in the height direction. Accordingly, each layer of the annular wall will not be easily bent when the container structure is subject to a vertical squeezing force.

Description

Collapsible silicone container structure

The invention relates to a silicone container structure, in particular to a collapsible silicone container structure.

According to the conventionally foldable silicone container structure, the structure of the container wall structure is partially enlarged as shown in FIG. 5, and the wall surface is composed of the first layer 6, the second layer 7, and the third layer. And a connecting portion connected therebetween, wherein a first arc angle 61 is formed at one end of the first layer 6 adjacent to the first connecting portion 91, and both ends of the second layer 7 are adjacent to the first connecting portion 91 and the second connecting portion 92. A second arc angle 71 is formed, and a third arc angle 81 is formed at one end of the third layer 8 near the second connecting portion 92, and the first arc angle 61 and the second arc angle 71 and the third arc angle 81 are formed. The radius of curvature is different, so that each level 6, 7, 8 forms a different inclination angle than the vertical plane, and the order of each level 6, 7, 8 is viewed in the order of each level 6, 7, 8 The change in slope is discontinuous, whereby the positions of the various levels 6, 7, and 8 are pre-interlaced, and when subjected to some micro-extrusion force, the container is deformed to fold the container.

However, although the conventional structure has the advantage of being easy to fold, in the process of using the container, the folding is easy to become a disadvantage that the container structure is not stable enough, and the container is deformed by a slight pressing force, and the contents contained therein are replaced. Fall out, causing troubles in use.

In view of this, how to solve the above problem is the primary problem to be solved by the present invention. Therefore, the inventor of the present invention finally has the invention after continuous hard thinking and trial work.

The main object of the present invention is to solve the above problems and to provide a collapsible silicone container structure, wherein the wall of each layer forming the peripheral wall surface of the container continuously changes in slope to form a smooth curved structure, and the vertical direction is provided. When you are in strength, you won't bend easily and fold.

For the purpose of the foregoing, the present invention provides a collapsible silicone container structure, which is mainly composed of a plurality of layers of ring walls which are sequentially connected upwardly to form a peripheral side wall surface by a connecting portion, thereby forming a silicone container body having an upward opening. Each of the connecting portions is vertically extending in an annular shape and arranged vertically. The thickness of each connecting portion is smaller than the thickness of each ring wall, and the ring walls of each layer form a tapered shape near one end of the adjacent connecting portion and are connected to the connecting portion, and each layer The ring wall and each of the connecting portions are respectively disposed at an angle inclined with respect to the vertical plane, and are respectively defined to have a slope, and the slopes of the respective ring walls and the connecting portions are sequentially changed continuously in the height direction, thereby When the structure of the container is subjected to vertical pressing force, the walls of the layers are not easily bent.

The above and other objects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description of the embodiments illustrated herein. Of course, the invention is tolerated in certain arrangements of parts or components, but the selected embodiment is described in detail in the specification and its construction is shown in the drawings.

Please refer to Figures 1 and 2, which are the foldable silicone container structures provided by the present invention, which are mainly composed of a plurality of layers of ring walls 1, 2, 3 which are sequentially connected upwards with the connecting portions 4, 5 connected to form an integral week. The side wall surface forms a silicone container body having an upward opening. In the present embodiment, as shown, the ring walls include a bottom plate 1 having a disk shape, the bottom layer 1 is connected with a connecting portion 4 upwardly to an annular middle layer 2, and the middle layer 2 is further connected to another The connecting portion 5 is connected upwardly to an annular top layer 3 to constitute the container body. Each of the connecting portions 4, 5 is annularly extended and arranged vertically, and has a thickness smaller than the thickness of each of the ring walls 1, 2, 3, for forming a weakened area on the peripheral side wall surface of the container. And thus bent. And one end of each of the ring walls 1, 2, 3 adjacent to the adjacent connecting portions 4, 5 is tapered and connected to the connecting portions 4, 5, so that the surface of the groove formed by the thin connecting portions 4, 5 is relatively Smooth, and there are no corners for dirt.

In addition, please refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the ring walls 1, 2, 3 and the connecting portions 4, 5 of each layer are respectively arranged at an angle inclined with respect to the vertical plane to make the inner diameter of the container structure Forming an upwardly expanding shape, and each of the ring walls 1, 2, 3 and each of the connecting portions 4, 5 is defined to have a slope, and the slopes of the respective ring walls 1, 2, 3 and the connecting portions 4, 5 are at a height. The direction is continuously changed; in other words, from the side view of the container, the integral side wall formed by the bottom layer 1, the connecting portion 4, the middle layer 2, the connecting portion 5 and even the top layer 3 is a smooth curved structure. In this way, the position of each layer of the ring wall in the conventional structure is pre-staggered and easily bent before being folded, and when the container structure is subjected to the pressing force in the vertical direction, the ring walls 1, 2, and 3 of each layer are pressed against each other. Abutting, and not easily bent from the joints 4, 5 to destroy the shape of the container, can avoid the folding action that is not intended by the user.

When the container structure of the present invention is to be folded, the user needs to apply the force by hand to fold the respective ring walls 1, 2, 3 inwardly and outwardly to form a folded state as shown in FIG. That is, the present invention can be accommodated in a small occupied volume.

The above description of the embodiments is intended to be illustrative of the invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. From the above detailed description, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can achieve the foregoing objects and is in accordance with the provisions of the Patent Law.
