  • a pressure inside the filling portion 60 is not particularly limited, but is preferably higher than atmospheric pressure, and may be, for example, equal to or more than 10 kPa and equal to or less than 500 kPa (gauge pressure).
  • the filling portion 60 filled with the filler is sealed, and the containing portion 17 is sealed except for the filling port 15 c.
  • a communicating portion (interfacial connecting portion 65 a ) between the first extending filling portion 66 and the fourth filling portion 64 is closed, and a communicating portion (interfacial connecting portion 65 b ) between the second extending filling portion 67 and the second filling portion 62 is closed.
  • the containing portion sealing seal 29 b is formed in the interfacial connecting portions 65 a and 65 b. Therefore, with the containing portion sealing seal 29 b, the inner-bag forming sheet members 41 in the interfacial connecting portion 65 a are attached to each other, and the inner-bag forming sheet members 41 in the interfacial connecting portion 65 b are attached to each other.
  • the extending piece 25 may be cut off in the vicinity of each of the filling portion sealing seal 29 a and the containing portion sealing seal 29 b, and each of the filling portion sealing seal 29 a and the containing portion sealing seal 29 b may be entirely retained in the container main body 20 .
  • the contents-containing sheet member container 300 can be obtained in which the filling portion 60 is filled with the filler (see FIG. 6 ).
  • the extending piece 25 may be retained without being cut off.
  • the cap part 70 includes, for example, a mounting portion 71 that is a cylindrical portion having an internal thread shape and detachably screwed into the outlet cylinder portion 15 a , a pump portion 72 fixed to the mounting portion 71 , a dip tube 77 extending downward from the pump portion 72 , and a head portion 73 that is held in the pump portion 72 so that the portion can be raised and lowered with respect to the pump portion 72 .
  • a mounting portion 71 that is a cylindrical portion having an internal thread shape and detachably screwed into the outlet cylinder portion 15 a
  • a pump portion 72 fixed to the mounting portion 71
  • a dip tube 77 extending downward from the pump portion 72
  • a head portion 73 that is held in the pump portion 72 so that the portion can be raised and lowered with respect to the pump portion 72 .
  • the forming of the peripheral edge sealing portion 42 can inhibit a portion of the extending piece 25 that does not overlap with a region where the bag-body sealing portion 26 is formed from being reheated. That is, heat history can be reduced, and hence strength of the bag-body sealing portion 26 in the extending piece 25 can be obtained.
  • the forming of the peripheral edge sealing portion 42 can inhibit a substantially entire region where the bag-body sealing portion 26 is formed in the extending piece 25 from being reheated. Therefore, heat history can be further reduced, and hence strength of the bag-body sealing portion 26 in the extending piece 25 can be sufficiently obtained.
  • a containing portion 17 is sealed from an external space except for a filling port 15 c, and hence the containing portion 17 can be sufficiently degassed by suctioning through the filling port 15 c before putting the filler into a filling portion 60 . This can more reliably inhibit the contents 18 contained in the containing portion 17 from being deteriorated (degraded) due to contact with oxygen retained in the containing portion 17 .
  • a contents filling step is performed so that a liquid level of contents 18 after the filling in the contents filling step is a position lower than a containing portion sealing seal 29 b (region where the containing portion sealing seal 29 b is formed in an extending piece 25 ). More preferably, the contents filling step is performed in a state where the sheet member container 100 is tilted so that the liquid level of the contents 18 after the filling in the contents filling step is the position lower than the containing portion sealing seal 29 b.
  • the contents 18 can be inhibited from being interposed between layers of innermost layer sheet members (inner-bag forming sheet members 41 ) in the region where the containing portion sealing seal 29 b is formed in the extending piece 25 . Therefore, in the region where the containing portion sealing seal 29 b is formed in the extending piece 25 , the inner-bag forming sheet members 41 can be more reliably attached to each other, so that the containing portion 17 can be suitably sealed.
