Description

内圧が陽圧となるボトルに用いるキャップ、及び、当該キャップを取り付けたボトルA cap used for a bottle in which the internal pressure is positive and a bottle attached with the cap
　本発明は、内圧が陽圧となるボトルに用いるキャップ、及び、当該キャップを取り付けたボトルに関する。 The present invention relates to a cap used for a bottle in which the internal pressure is positive, and a bottle to which the cap is attached.
　特開２０１５－９８５３号公報（特許文献１）など、一般に、ボトルに取り付けるキャップ１００は、図５に示すように、ボトル口部の外周面に設けられた雄ネジ部と係合させる雌ネジ部１０１を備えており、雌ネジ部１０１が、複数の突起部１０２が周方向に断続的に連なったものとなっている。 In general, as shown in FIG. 5, a cap 100 attached to a bottle, such as JP-A-2015-9853 (PTL 1), is a female screw that is engaged with a male screw provided on the outer peripheral surface of the bottle opening. A plurality of projections 102 are intermittently connected in the circumferential direction.
　例えば炭酸飲料を充填したボトルなど内圧が陽圧となるボトルでは、高温雰囲気化で保管されるなどによりボトルの内圧が高まると、図６に示すようにキャップ１００の天面１０３が押し上げられ、さらに天面１０３に引きずられる形で側壁１０４も上方に押し上げられる状態となることがある。このような状態になると、キャップによるボトル口部のシール状態が解除され、内容物のリークが起きる虞がある。 For example, in a bottle such as a bottle filled with a carbonated beverage and having a positive internal pressure, when the internal pressure of the bottle is increased by being stored in a high temperature atmosphere, the top surface 103 of the cap 100 is pushed up as shown in FIG. The side wall 104 may also be pushed upward by being dragged by the top surface 103. In such a state, the sealed state of the bottle opening by the cap is released, and there is a possibility that the contents may leak.
特開２０１５－９８５３号公報JP, 2015-9853, A
　側壁１０４が上方に押し上げられるのはキャップ側壁１０４が周方向に伸びて外方に膨らむ方向に変形するためであるが、複数の突起部１０２が周方向に断続的に連なった雌ネジ部１０１を有する従来のキャップ１００では、キャップ側壁１０４が周方向に伸びることを十分に抑制できず、内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できなかった。 The side wall 104 is pushed upward because the cap side wall 104 is deformed so as to extend in the circumferential direction and expand outward, but the female screw portion 101 in which a plurality of protrusions 102 are intermittently connected in the circumferential direction is In the conventional cap 100 having such a configuration, the cap sidewall 104 can not be sufficiently suppressed from extending in the circumferential direction, and the leak of the contents can not be effectively suppressed.
　そこで、本発明の目的は、内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できるキャップを提供することにある。 Then, the objective of this invention is providing the cap which can suppress the leak of the contents effectively.
　本発明に係るキャップは、
　内圧が陽圧となるボトルに用いるキャップであって、
　ボトル口部の外周面に設けられた雄ネジ部と係合させる雌ネジ部を備え、
　前記雌ネジ部は、キャップ側壁の内周面から突出する、少なくとも３６０度連続して螺旋状に延びる周突出部を備え、
　前記周突出部には、径方向の一部が切り欠かれた切欠き部が少なくとも一か所設けられている。 The cap according to the present invention is
A cap used for a bottle where the internal pressure is positive,
It has a female screw to be engaged with a male screw provided on the outer peripheral surface of the bottle mouth,
The female screw portion includes a circumferential projection extending continuously at least 360 degrees and projecting from the inner circumferential surface of the cap side wall,
The circumferential protrusion is provided with at least one notch in which a part in the radial direction is cut.
　この構成によれば、雄ネジ部が３６０度連続して螺旋状に延びる周突出部を備えるから、キャップ側壁が周方向に伸びることを効果的に抑制することができ、キャップ側壁が外方に膨らみにくくなり、その結果、キャップ側壁が上方に押し上げられることを効果的に抑制できる。これにより、内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できる。また、周突出部には径方向の一部が切り欠かれた切欠き部が設けられているため、切欠き部がガスの抜け道となって開栓時にガスを逃がすことができ、安全に開栓を行うことができる。 According to this configuration, since the male screw portion is provided with the circumferential projecting portion that continuously extends in a spiral shape at 360 degrees, it is possible to effectively suppress the circumferential extension of the cap side wall, and the cap side wall is outward As a result, the cap side wall can be effectively suppressed from being pushed upward. Thereby, the leak of the contents can be effectively suppressed. In addition, since the circumferential projection is provided with a notch in which a part of the radial direction is cut out, the notch becomes an escape path for the gas, so that gas can be released at the time of opening, and it is opened safely. You can plug it.
　１つの態様として、前記周突出部には、前記切欠き部が所定間隔で複数設けられていると好適である。 As one aspect, it is preferable that a plurality of the notches be provided at predetermined intervals in the circumferential protrusion.
　この構成によれば、複数の切欠き部を有するから軽量化も図ることができ、さらに、所定間隔で設けられるのでキャップの強度が均等化されて、一層効果的にキャップ側壁の変形を抑制できる。 According to this configuration, weight reduction can be achieved because of having a plurality of notches, and furthermore, since the cap is provided at a predetermined interval, the strength of the cap can be equalized, and deformation of the cap sidewall can be more effectively suppressed. .
　１つの態様として、前記切欠き部の縁が、なだらかな弧状で形成されていると好適である。 As one aspect, it is preferable that the edge of the notch is formed in a smooth arc shape.
　切欠き部の縁が段差状に形成されていると、キャップをボトル口部に取り付けるときに、ボトル口部の雄ネジ部と切欠き部とが互いに干渉して、ボトルへのキャップの取り付けが阻害されるおそれがあるが、この構成によれば、切欠き部の縁が、なだらかな弧状で形成されているため、キャップをボトル口部に取り付けるときに、ボトル口部の雄ネジ部と切欠き部とが互いに干渉することを効果的に抑制でき、ボトルへのキャップの取り付けを円滑に行い易い。 When the edge of the notch is formed in a step-like shape, when attaching the cap to the bottle opening, the male screw and the notch of the bottle opening interfere with each other to attach the cap to the bottle According to this configuration, the edge of the notch portion is formed in a gentle arc shape, so that when the cap is attached to the bottle mouth portion, the male thread portion of the bottle mouth portion and the cut portion are cut. Interference between the notches and the other can be effectively suppressed, and the cap can be easily attached to the bottle smoothly.
　１つの態様として、前記ボトル口部の外周面をシールするアウターシール部を備え、前記アウターシール部と前記キャップ側壁の内周面との間には、両者を接続するリブが設けられていると好適である。 According to one aspect, an outer seal portion for sealing the outer peripheral surface of the bottle opening portion is provided, and a rib for connecting the outer seal portion and the inner peripheral surface of the cap side wall is provided between the outer seal portion and the inner peripheral surface of the cap side wall. It is suitable.
　これらの構成によれば、シール部分やキャップ天面、側壁の変形を効果的に抑制でき、内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できる。 According to these configurations, the deformation of the seal portion, the cap top surface, and the side wall can be effectively suppressed, and the leak of the contents can be effectively suppressed.
　１つの態様として、炭酸飲料用のボトルに用いるキャップであると好適である。 In one aspect, a cap for use in a bottle for carbonated beverages is preferred.
　本発明に係るキャップは内圧の上昇による内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できるため、内圧が高まりやすい炭酸飲料を充填するボトルに対して有効である。 The cap according to the present invention can effectively suppress the leak of the contents due to the increase of the internal pressure, and therefore is effective for the bottle filled with the carbonated beverage in which the internal pressure tends to increase.
　１つの態様として、前記ボトル口部の外径が２５ｍｍ以上であるボトルに用いるキャップであると好適である。 It is suitable that it is a cap used for the bottle whose outer diameter of the said bottle mouth part is 25 mm or more as one aspect.
　変形率が同じであっても、キャップの径が大きいほど変形量は大きくなるため、内圧の上昇による内容物のリークの危険が高いところ、ボトル口部の外径が２５ｍｍ以上であることに伴いキャップの径が大きくなっても、本発明に係るキャップによれば内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できる。 Even if the deformation rate is the same, the larger the diameter of the cap, the larger the amount of deformation, so there is a high risk of leakage of the contents due to the rise in internal pressure, and the outer diameter of the bottle opening is 25 mm or more According to the cap of the present invention, the leak of the contents can be effectively suppressed even if the diameter of the cap is increased.

Further, the liquid to be filled in the bottle is a carbonated beverage in the present embodiment, but it is not particularly limited, and the internal pressure becomes positive after filling, or is filled in a state where the internal pressure becomes positive by sealing with nitrogen or the like. For example, drinking water, tea, fruit juice, coffee, cocoa, soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, milk drinks, beverages such as soups, and liquid seasonings such as sauces and soy sauce may be mentioned.
　本実施形態に係るキャップ２０は、図２，３に示すように、雄ネジ部１１と係合させる雌ネジ部２１を備える。雌ネジ部２１は、キャップ側壁２５の内周面２５Ａから突出する少なくとも３６０度（本実施形態では６８０度）連続して螺旋状に延びる周突出部２２からなる。つまり、ボトル口部１０の雄ネジ部１１は、複数の突出部１２が隙間１３を空けて連なったものとなっていたが、雌ネジ部２１は一つの周突出部２２が少なくとも一周分の３６０度連続しており、これにより内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できる。つまり、内容物のリークが起こるのは、内圧が高まることによりキャップ２０の天面２４が押し上げられ、さらに天面に引きずられる形でキャップ側壁２５も上方に押し上げられる状態となることがあり、このような状態になると、キャップ２０によるボトル口部１０のシール状態が解除されるからであるところ、雄ネジ部２１が少なくとも３６０度連続して螺旋状に延びる周突出部２２からなるため、キャップ側壁２５が周方向に伸びることを効果的に抑制することができ、キャップ側壁２５が外方に膨らみにくくなり、その結果、キャップ側壁２５が上方に押し上げられることを効果的に抑制できる。 The cap 20 which concerns on this embodiment is provided with the internal thread part 21 engaged with the external thread part 11, as shown to FIG. The female screw portion 21 is composed of a circumferential protrusion 22 continuously and helically extending at least 360 degrees (in this embodiment, 680 degrees) protruding from the inner circumferential surface 25A of the cap side wall 25. That is, although the male screw portion 11 of the bottle mouth portion 10 is formed by connecting the plurality of projecting portions 12 with the gap 13 between them, the female screw portion 21 has one circumferential projecting portion 22 of at least 360 rounds. It is possible to effectively suppress the leak of the contents. That is, the leak of the content occurs because the upper surface 24 of the cap 20 is pushed up by the increase of the internal pressure, and the cap side wall 25 may also be pushed upward in the form of being dragged by the upper surface. In such a state, the sealed state of the bottle opening 10 by the cap 20 is released, but since the male screw portion 21 is formed of the circumferential protrusion 22 continuously extending at least 360 degrees, the cap side wall It is possible to effectively suppress the circumferential expansion of the cap 25 and to prevent the cap sidewall 25 from expanding outward, and as a result, it is possible to effectively inhibit the cap sidewall 25 from being pushed upward.
　また、ガスの抜け道を作るため、周突出部２２には、径方向の一部が切り欠かれた（つまり、ボトル側壁２５の内周面２５Ａまで到達しない）切欠き部２３が少なくとも一か所設けられている。より詳しくは、所定間隔で複数（本実施形態では）設けられている。複数の切欠き部２３を有するから軽量化も図ることができ、さらに、所定間隔で設けられるのでキャップ２０の強度が均等化されて、一層効果的にキャップ側壁２５の変形を抑制できる。なお、ボトル口部１０にキャップ２０に取り付けたとき、各切欠き部２３は雄ネジ部１１の隙間１３の位置に対応する位置に配置されるようになっている。さらに、各切欠き部２３の縁２３ａはなだらかな弧状で形成されている。これにより、キャップ２０をボトル口部１０に取り付けるときに、ボトル口部１０の雄ネジ部１１と切欠き部２３とが互いに干渉することを効果的に抑制でき、ボトルへのキャップ２０の取り付けを円滑に行い易くなる。また、切欠き部２３の深さはボトル側壁２５の内周面２５Ａまで到達しないものであれば特に限定されないが、周突出部２２の突出高さの２０～８０％であると好ましい。２０％未満であればキャップ側壁２５の膨らみを防止しにくくなり、８０％を超えるとガスの抜け道を確保しがたく、また、軽量化も図れなくなるためである。 In addition, in order to make an escape path for gas, at least one notch 23 in which a part in the radial direction is notched (that is, does not reach the inner circumferential surface 25A of the bottle side wall 25) is formed in the circumferential protrusion 22 It is provided. More specifically, a plurality of (in the present embodiment) are provided at predetermined intervals. Since the plurality of notches 23 are provided, weight reduction can be achieved, and furthermore, since the cap 20 is provided at a predetermined interval, the strength of the cap 20 is equalized, and deformation of the cap side wall 25 can be suppressed more effectively. When attached to the cap 20 at the bottle opening 10, each notch 23 is arranged at a position corresponding to the position of the gap 13 of the male screw 11. Furthermore, the edge 23a of each notch 23 is formed in a gentle arc. Thereby, when attaching the cap 20 to the bottle opening 10, interference between the male screw 11 and the notch 23 of the bottle opening 10 can be effectively suppressed, and the attachment of the cap 20 to the bottle It becomes easy to do smoothly. The depth of the notch 23 is not particularly limited as long as it does not reach the inner peripheral surface 25 A of the bottle side wall 25, but it is preferable that it is 20 to 80% of the protrusion height of the circumferential protrusion 22. If it is less than 20%, it is difficult to prevent the swelling of the cap side wall 25. If it exceeds 80%, it is difficult to secure a gas escape path, and it is also impossible to reduce the weight.
　図２，４に示すように、キャップ２０の天面２４の内面２４Ａには、口部１０の内周面の先端部分をシールするインナーシール部２６と、口部１０の外周面１０Ａの先端部分をシールするアウターシール部２７とが設けられている。このインナーシール部２６とアウターシール部２７とで口部１０の先端部分を挟み込むことで口部１０がシールされる。そして、アウターシール部２７とキャップ側壁２５の内周面２５Ａとの間、及び、インナーシール部２６とアウターシール部２７との間には、それぞれ両者を接続するリブ２８，２９が周方向に等間隔で複数（本実施形態では１４個）設けられている。具体的には、各リブ２８は、径方向に対して傾く状態で、アウターシール部２７とキャップ側壁２５の内周面２５Ａとの間に延びており、各リブ２９は、径方向に沿う状態で、インナーシール部２６とアウターシール部２７との間に延びている。そして、本実施形態では、隣り合うリブ２８間の周方向における中間位置にリブ２９が位置し、且つ、隣り合うリブ２９間の周方向における中間位置にリブ２９が位置しキャップ天面の変形を効果的に抑制でき、内容物のリークを効果的に抑制できる。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, on the inner surface 24A of the top surface 24 of the cap 20, the inner seal portion 26 for sealing the tip of the inner peripheral surface of the mouth 10 and the tip of the outer peripheral surface 10A of the mouth 10 And an outer seal portion 27 for sealing. The mouth portion 10 is sealed by sandwiching the tip portion of the mouth portion 10 with the inner seal portion 26 and the outer seal portion 27. Further, between the outer seal portion 27 and the inner circumferential surface 25A of the cap side wall 25 and between the inner seal portion 26 and the outer seal portion 27, ribs 28 and 29 connecting the both are circumferentially equal to each other. A plurality of (14 in the present embodiment) are provided at intervals. Specifically, each rib 28 extends between the outer seal portion 27 and the inner circumferential surface 25A of the cap side wall 25 in a state of being inclined with respect to the radial direction, and each rib 29 extends in the radial direction And extends between the inner seal portion 26 and the outer seal portion 27. And in this embodiment, the rib 29 is located in the middle position in the circumferential direction between the adjacent ribs 28, and the rib 29 is located in the middle position in the circumferential direction between the adjacent ribs 29 so that the cap top surface is deformed. It is possible to effectively suppress the leak of the contents.
