Description

軟質容器及びその製造装置、並びに製造方法
 本発明は、軟質容器及びその製造、並びに製造方法に関し、例えば接着剤や塗料等の流動性の充填物を収容するのに好適な軟質容器及びその製造、並びに製造方法に関する。
 一般に、この種の軟質容器は、柔軟な胴部と、硬質樹脂の射出成形品からなる先端樹脂部材を有している(特許文献1~3等参照)。特許文献1の胴部は、樹脂シートを丸めた筒状になっている。胴部の先端部に、円形の蓋状の先端樹脂部材が設けられている。先端樹脂部材の中央部に吐出口が形成されている。かつ、先端樹脂部材の内面には、アルミ層を含むバリアシートが貼り付けられている。バリアシートは、先端樹脂部材の内面に沿う平面状になっている。バリアシートの中央部によって吐出口が塞がれている。
 特許文献2、3の軟質容器における先端樹脂部材は、テーパ状の肩部と、筒状の口頸部を一体に有している。先端樹脂部材の内面にアルミ層を含むバリアシートが貼り付けられている。バリアシートは、肩部の内面に沿うテーパ状の部分と、中央の平面状の部分とを有している。中央の平面状の部分が、口頸部内に張り渡されることによって、口頸部が塞がれている。
特許第5713649号公報 特開2013-233982号公報 特開2011-195144号公報
 前掲特許文献1~3のバリアシートは、射出成形樹脂からなる先端樹脂部材に付随する部品であり、先端樹脂部材が無いと支持を失う。つまり、胴部の先端部を塞ぐには、先端樹脂部材とバリアシートの2部材が必要である。
 本発明は、上記事情に鑑み、胴部の先端部を1つのシート部材で閉塞可能な軟質容器を提供することを目的とする。
 前記問題点を解決するために、本発明に係る軟質容器は、柔軟な胴部と、前記胴部の先端部を塞ぐ先端シート部材と、を備え、前記先端シート部材が、
 前記胴部と接合された筒状の周側部と、
 前記周側部から先端側へ向かってテーパ状に縮径する肩部と、
 前記肩部の先端部を塞ぐ頂部と
 を一体に有する一様な厚みの自立したフィルム成形体にて構成されていることを特徴とする。
 自立とは、先端シート部材を構成するフィルム成形体が、自己保形性を有し、かつ胴部の先端部を塞ぐように設けられるのに支持体を必要としないことを言う。フィルム成形体とは、フィルムに一定の形を付与したものである。
 これによって、先端シート部材単独で胴部の先端部を塞ぐことができる。先端シート部材を支持する支持体が不要であり、製品コストを低減できる。
 流動体状の被収容物を吐出させる際は、例えば頂部に穴を開ける。肩部がテーパ状であることで、被収容物をスムーズに吐出できる。
 前記周側部が、前記肩部へ向かって前記肩部より緩やかに縮径するテーパ状であることが好ましい。これによって、先端シート部材を成形装置から容易に型抜きできる。
 前記頂部が、前記肩部から先端側へ凸をなすドーム状であることが好ましい。これによって、被収容物による内圧に対する耐圧性を高めることができる。加えて、デザイン性を高めることができる。
 更に、前記肩部と前記頂部とが滑らかに連続していることが好ましい。これによって、肩部と頂部の連続部に大きな応力が掛かるのを防止できる。
 前記胴部の底部を塞ぐ底シート部材を更に備え、前記底シート部材が、前記先端シート部材とほぼ同一形状をなして、先端シート部材に嵌め込み可能であることが好ましい。
 頂部に穴を開けたうえで、底シート部材をプランジャ代わりにして先端シート部材へ向けて押すことで、被収容物を吐出させることができる。これに伴い、胴部が潰れる。最終的には、底シート部材が先端シート部材の内面側に嵌ることで、被収容物を出し切ることができる。したがって、被収容物の無駄を少なくできる。
 前記胴部を構成するシートの先端側の部分が、前記先端シート部材よりも先端側へ延び出ることによって先端延出部を構成しており、前記先端延出部の先端部が封止されていることが好ましい。
 これによって、先端シート部材を先端延出部内に封入できる。したがって、先端シート部材を手で直接、触れないようにしたり、空気中の細菌や塵埃が先端シート部材に付着するのを防止したりでき、衛生を向上できる。先端シート部材に多少の凹みが出来ていたとしても、先端延出部によって先端シート部材を覆うことで、外観上、見栄えを損なわないようにできる。
 前記先端シート部材の肩部の外面には筒状又は環状の吐出口部材が接合され、前記吐出口部材の外径が、前記胴部の先端部の内径より小さいことが好ましい。
 これによって、吐出口部材が先端シート部材によって支持される。吐出口部材は、胴部に達している必要がない。したがって、吐出口部材が先端シート部材の支持体となる構造(特許文献1~3等)よりも、吐出口部材を小さくできる。その分、材料コストを低減できる。
 本発明に係る製造装置は、前記軟質容器を製造する装置であって、
 凸状の絞り型部を有して、ブランクフィルムから前記先端シート部材を絞り成形するシート成形部と、
 前記絞り型部と対向して、前記絞り型部上の先端シート部材との間にキャビティを画成するとともに、前記キャビティに前記吐出口部材の材料を射出することによって、前記吐出口部材を射出成形する吐出口成形部と、を備えたことを特徴とする。
 1つの装置によって先端シート部材及び吐出口部材を製造でき、製造コストを低減できる。
 本発明に係る製造方法は、前記軟質容器を製造する方法であって、
 シート成形部によって、ブランクフィルムから前記先端シート部材を絞り成形する絞り工程と、
 前記シート成形部に保持されたままの先端シート部材と、その先端側に対向する吐出口成形部との間にキャビティを画成し、前記キャビティに前記吐出口部材の材料を射出する射出成形工程と、
 を備えたことを特徴とする。
 先端シート部材及び吐出口部材をほぼ同時に製造でき、製造コストを低減できる。
 前記先端シート部材の周側部に胴部の先端部を重ねて接合することが好ましい。一方、先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部とを重ねる際、両者間にクリアランスがあると、接合後も両者間に隙間が出来るおそれがある。クリアランスを無くすと、両者を重ね合わせるのが困難である。
 そこで、本発明は、軟質容器の柔軟な胴部の先端部に先端シート部材の周側部を接合する軟質容器製造装置であって、
 先端に前記先端シート部材が被せられ、前記先端に続く外周に前記胴部が被せられ、かつ先端近傍の外周において前記先端シート部材の周側部と前記胴部の先端部とが重ねられるコアと、
 前記コアにおける前記先端近傍のコア部分を前記接合時に拡径させるコア駆動手段と、
 前記コア部分の外周上に溶着エネルギーを供給する溶着ヘッドと
 を備えたことを、更なる特徴とする。
 コアに先端シート部材及び胴部を被せる際は、前記先端近傍のコア部分を拡径させない。これによって、先端シート部材及び胴部をコアに簡単に被せることができる。好ましくは、先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部との間にクリアランスを設定することで、両者を容易に重ねることができる。
 前記被せた後、コア駆動手段によって前記先端近傍のコア部分を拡径させる。このため、先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部との重なり部分に前記コア部分が内周側から押し当てられる。これによって、前記クリアランスを解消できる。すなわち、先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部との間に隙間ができるのを防止できる。その状態で、前記コア部分の外周上における先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部との重なり部分に溶着ヘッドから溶着エネルギーが供給される。これによって、先端シート部材の周側部と胴部の先端部とを隙間なく溶着して接合できる。
 その後、前記コア部分を縮径させ、先端シート部材及び胴部を含む軟質容器をコアから抜く。
 溶着ヘッドは、高周波溶着コイルを含む高周波溶着ヘッドであることが好ましい。
 前記コア部分が、周方向に分かれて配置された複数の内周押え部材を有し、前記コア駆動手段が、前記複数の内周押え部材を前記コアの径方向へ進退させることが好ましい。
 前記接合時にはコア駆動手段によって内周押え部材を径方向外側へ前進させる。これによって、前記コア部分が拡径され、先端シート部材と胴部がしっかりと接合される。
 前記接合後、コア駆動手段によって内周押え部材を径方向内側へ後退させる。これによって、前記コア部分が縮径され、軟質容器をコアから抜くことができる。
 前記コア駆動手段は、複数の内周押え部材を互いに同期させて進退させることが好ましい。
 前記コア駆動手段が、コアの軸線上に配置された駆動軸と、前記駆動軸を前記軸線に沿って前進位置と後退位置との間でスライドさせる駆動部と、前記駆動軸と前記内周押え部材との間に設けられたカム機構と、前記内周押え部材を縮径方向へ付勢する内周付勢手段とを備え、前記駆動軸が前記前進位置へスライドされると前記カム機構によって内周押え部材が径方向外側へ前進され、前記駆動軸が前記後退位置へスライドされると前記内周付勢手段によって前記内周押え部材が径方向内側へ後退されるようになっていることが好ましい。
 前記カム機構として、例えば前記駆動軸の先端部に先細テーパなどの凸状のカム面が形成され、かつ前記内周押え部材の内面には、前記テーパ部と当接する凹状のカム面が形成されていることが好ましい。
 前記接合用の軟質容器製造装置が、前記コア部分の外周を囲む外周押え部材を更に備えていることが好ましい。
 これによって、先端シート部材と胴部の重なり部分を前記コア部分と外周押え部材とで挟み付けることができる。したがって、先端シート部材と胴部との間に隙間ができるのを確実に防止でき、両者をしっかりと接合できる。かつ、外周押え部材によって軟質容器の外径を規定することで、寸法精度を高めることができる。特に先端シート部材と胴部の重なり部分の径寸法を安定させることができる。
 1の環状の外周押え部材によって前記コア部分が囲まれていてもよく、複数の外周押え部材が前記コア部分のまわりに互いに環状に配置されることで、これら複数の外周押え部材によって前記コア部分が囲まれていてもよい。
 前記複数の外周押え部材が、前記コア部分の径方向に進退可能であるが好ましい。
 前記外周押え部材における前記コア部分を向く面(内側面)には、周方向へ延びる突起が形成されていることが好ましい。
 前記突起が前記胴部の封筒貼り部又は合掌貼り部を横切るようにすることで、封筒貼り部又は合掌貼り部の長手方向に細長く延びる貼り部内隙間の一箇所を局所的に押し潰し、更には溶着して塞ぐことができる。これによって、軟質容器の内部空間が前記貼り部内隙間を介して外部と連通するのを防止できる。ひいては、内容物が前記貼り部内隙間を通して漏れ出たり外気が前記貼り部内隙間を通して軟質容器内に入り込んだりするのを防止できる。
 前記突起は、前記外周押え部材の内側面における、前記封筒貼り部又は合掌貼り部と対面する部分及びその周辺部に少なくとも設けられていればよい。
 本発明によれば、軟質容器の胴部の先端部を1つの先端シート部材によって閉塞できる。

 以下、本発明の実施形態を図面にしたがって説明する。
<第1実施形態>
 図1~図4は、本発明の第1実施形態を示したものである。図1(a)~(c)に示すように、軟質容器1は、胴部10と、先端シート部材20と、吐出口部材30を備えている。軟質容器1の被収容物9(内容物)は、例えば接着剤、塗料、飲料等の流動体や粘性体である。
 胴部10は、例えば1枚のシート19を筒状に丸めて封筒貼りしたものである。図1(c)に示すように、被収容物9の充填前の胴部10の底部は、開放されている。胴部10は、底部から先端へ向かって非常に緩やかに縮径するテーパ状になっている。胴部10のテーパ角度は、例えば、軟質容器1の軸線Lに対し好ましくは0.1°~0.5°程度、より好ましくは0.3°程度になっている。
 図1(a)及び同図(b)に示すように、被収容物9の充填後、胴部10の底部がヒートシールによって塞がれ、底部ヒートシール部12が形成される。
 図2(b)に示すように、胴部10を構成するシート19は、例えば4層(複数層)のラミネート構造になっている。胴部10の最外層14と最内層17は、共に直鎖状低密度ポリエチレン(LLDPE)にて構成されている。これによって、封筒貼り可能になっている。最外層14と最内層17との間に、バリア層15と、樹脂層16が挟まれている。バリア層15は、アルミニウム等の金属にて構成され、その厚みt15は例えばt15=7μm~15μm程度、好ましくはt15=12μm程度である。これによって、ガスバリア性を確実に発揮でき、かつ胴部10の柔軟性を確保できる。樹脂層16は、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)にて構成されている。
 なお、胴部10の積層フィルム数、各層の厚み、材質、シール構造等は、必ずしも前記のものに限られず、適宜改変できる。
 胴部10の先端部には、先端シート部材20が設けられている。先端シート部材20によって胴部10の先端部が塞がれている。図2(a)に示すように、先端シート部材20は、周側部21と、肩部22と、頂部23を一体に有している。先端シート部材20の軸線は、軟質容器1の軸線L上に配置されている。
 周側部21は、断面円形の筒状になっている。詳しくは、周側部21は、先端側(肩部22の側)へ向かって非常に緩やかに縮径するテーパ状になっている。周側部21のテーパ角度θ21は、胴部10のテーパ角度に合わせられており、例えば、軟質容器1の軸線Lに対して好ましくはθ21=0.1°~0.5°程度、より好ましくはθ21=0.3°程度になっている。
 周側部21に胴部10の先端部が接合されている。詳しくは、胴部10の先端部が周側部21の外周面に被さり、かつ胴部10と周側部21とが溶着されている。ここでは、溶着方法として高周波溶着が用いられているが、必ずしもこれに限られるものではなく、超音波溶着や熱溶着等の他の溶着方法を用いてもよい。
 周側部21の先端部に肩部22が連なっている。肩部22は、周側部21から先端側(図2(a)において上側)へ向かって縮径するテーパ状(円錐面状)になっている。肩部22のテーパθ22角度は、周側部21のテーパ角度θ21よりも十分に大きく(θ22>θ21)、例えば軸線Lに対してθ22=45°~75°程度、好ましくはθ22=60°程度になっている。つまり、周側部21は緩テーパ部、肩部22は急テーパ部となっている。
 肩部22の先端部(中央部)が頂部23によって塞がれている。頂部23は、肩部22と滑らかに連続するとともに先端側へ凸をなすドーム状(部分球面状)になっている。
 先端シート部材20は、フィルム成形体28によって構成されている。フィルム成形体28は、全体的に一様(均一)な厚みを有し、かつ自立している。自立とは、フィルム成形体28が、自己保形性を有し、胴部10の先端部に設けられるのに硬質の射出成形樹脂等の支持体を必要としないことを言う。自己保形性とは、フィルム成形体28が、当該フィルム成形体28だけで自身の形状を保持しており、自重ないしは多少の外力では形状が崩れないことを言う。
 図2(b)に示すように、フィルム成形体28ひいては先端シート部材20は、例えば3層のラミネート構造になっている。先端シート部材20の外層24は直鎖状低密度ポリエチレン(LLDPE)にて構成され、内層26はポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)にて構成されている。外層24が軟質容器1の外部に面し、内層26が軟質容器1の内部に面している。外層24と内層26との間に、バリア層25が挟まれている。バリア層25は、アルミニウム等の金属にて構成され、ガスバリア性を有している。バリア層25の厚みt25は、バリア層15の厚みt15よりも大きく(t25>t15)、例えばt22=30μm~50μm程度、好ましくはt22=40μm程度である。バリア層25が比較的厚肉であることで、フィルム成形体28ひいては先端シート部材20が胴部10よりも硬くなっており、自己保形性ないしは自立性が付与されている。
 なお、フィルム成形体28ひいては先端シート部材20の積層フィルム数、各層の厚み、材質等は、必ずしも前記に限られず、適宜改変できる。
 図2(a)に示すように、先端シート部材20の外面に吐出口部材30が設けられている。吐出口部材30の材質は、ポリエチレン(PE)やポリプロピレン(PP)等の硬質樹脂である。吐出口部材30は、吐出口部31と、鍔部32を一体に含む。吐出口部31は、筒状になっており、先端シート部材20から先端側(図2(a)において上側)へ突出されている。吐出口部31の軸線は、軟質容器1の軸線Lと一致されている。吐出口部31の外周面には、雄ネジ部31bが形成されている。図示は省略するが、吐出口部31に雌ネジ付きのノズルやキャップが取り付けられる。
 吐出口部31の基端側(先端シート部材20を向く側)の端部に鍔部32が形成されている。鍔部32は、吐出口部31の外周から径方向外側へ突出されるとともに、吐出口部31の全周にわたる環状になっている。鍔部32の底面が、肩部22の外面に接合されている。これによって、吐出口部材30が先端シート部材20に支持されている。つまり、先端シート部材20ひいてはフィルム成形体28は、自立性にとどまらず、他部材(吐出口部材30)を支持可能な程度の強さないしは堅さをも有している。
 鍔部32の外径ひいては吐出口部材30の外径は、胴部10の先端部の内径より小径である。吐出口部材30は、胴部10と直接には接しておらず、先端シート部材20を介して胴部10と接続されている。
 吐出口部31の基端側(図2(a)において下側)の開口は、頂部23によって塞がれている。ドーム状の頂部23が吐出口部31の内部に少し入り込んでいる。
 軟質容器1は、次のようにして製造される。
<成形装置50(軟質容器製造装置)>
 図3に示すように、軟質容器1における先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30は、成形装置50(軟質容器製造装置)によって作製される。図3(a)に示すように、成形装置50は、第1金型51と、第2金型52と、第3金型53を含む。これら金型51~53が、下から上へ順次配置されている。
 第1金型51は、凸状の絞り型部51bを有している。絞り型部51bの先端部(上端部)は、先端シート部材20の形状に合わせた円錐面状になっている。第2金型52に環状凹部からなるシートセット部52cが形成されている。主に第1金型51と第2金型52によって、シート成形部50bが構成されている。
 第3金型53は、円錐凹面状の絞り受部53bと、ネジ溝付きの円筒凹面状の射出型部53dを有している。絞り受部53bの中央部に射出型部53dが設けられている。
 第3金型53の上部にトッププレート54が配置されている。トッププレート54の中央部に射出ノズル55が設けられている。射出ノズル55が、円筒凹面状の射出型部53d内に挿し入れられている。
 主に第3金型53と射出ノズル55とによって、吐出口成形部50cが構成されている。シート成形部50bの先端側(上側)に吐出口成形部50cが対向配置されている。
 なお、第3金型53は、複数(図3では左右2つ)のピース53aに分割されている。これらピース53aが、射出ノズル55を中心にして離間したり接近したりすることで、第3金型53が開閉可能になっている。
<絞り工程>
 図3(a)に示すように、先端シート部材20となるべき円板形状のブランクフィルム29(成形前フィルム)を、シートセット部52cにセットする。第2金型52と第3金型53を接近させ、第3金型53のシート押え部53cによってブランクフィルム29の外周部を押さえる。
 続いて、図3(b)に示すように、第1金型51と第2金型52とを接近させて型締めする。型締めによって、絞り型部51bが、シートセット部52cの中心穴から突出して、ブランクフィルム29を絞り変形させながら、絞り受部53b内に入り込む。これによって、シート成形部50bによって、ブランクフィルム29からフィルム成形体28ひいては先端シート部材20が絞り成形される。
 バリア層25を胴部10のバリア層15よりも厚肉(好ましくはθ25=30μm~50μm程度、より好ましくはθ25=40μm程度)にしておくことで、絞り成形時にバリア層25が破れるのを防止できる。ちなみに、バリア層25がバリア層15と同程度の厚み(例えばθ25=10μm~15μm程度)であると、絞り成形時に破れやすい。
<射出成形工程>
 先端シート部材20が絞り成形されるのと同時に、該先端シート部材20と、その上方(先端側)の射出型部53dの内面及び射出ノズル55の外周面との間に、キャビティ50dが画成される。かつ、絞り受部53bが肩部22に当たり、射出ノズル55の下端面が頂部23に当たる。 
 続いて、図3(c)に示すように、シート成形部50bによって先端シート部材20を保持したまま、溶融樹脂39(吐出口部材30の材料)を射出ノズル55の射出路55aからキャビティ50dに射出する。これによって、先端シート部材20の絞り成形と同時又はその直後に吐出口部材30を射出成形できる。しかも、射出成形と同時に、溶融樹脂39の接着性によって吐出口部材30を先端シート部材20と一体接合できる。
 その後、金型51~53を互いに離して型締めを解除し、吐出口部材30付き先端シート部材20を脱型する。周側部21が緩やかなテーパ状であるため、先端シート部材20を容易に型抜きできる。
 これによって、先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30が作製される。1つの成形装置50によって先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30を効率的に製造でき、製造コストを低減できる。
 次に、図4に示すように、別途作製した胴部10と、吐出口部材30付き先端シート部材20とを接合する。
 詳しくは、図4(a)に示すように、接合用治具として心金61を用意する。心金61は、円柱状であり、かつ先端側(上側)へ向かって緩やかに縮径されている。
 心金61の先端部(上端部)に先端シート部材20(吐出口部材30付き)を被せる。
 次に、胴部10を上方から心金61の外周に被せる。これによって、胴部10の先端部(上端部)が、周側部21の外周部に被さる。胴部10及び周側部21を共にテーパ状に形成しておくことで、胴部10を周側部21の全周にわたってぴったりと接するようにできる。
 次に、図4(b)に示すように、環状の高周波溶着装置60を心金61の先端部の外側にセットし、胴部10の先端部と周側部21とを高周波溶着する。
 その後、軟質容器1を心金61から外す。
 これによって、軟質容器1(被収容物9は未充填)を作製できる。
 軟質容器1によれば、先端シート部材20単独で胴部10の先端部を塞ぐことができる。先端シート部材20を支持する支持体が不要であり、製品コストを低減できる。
 吐出口部材30の鍔部32は、胴部10に達している必要がなく、吐出口部材30が先端シート部材20の支持体となる構造(特許文献1~3等)よりも吐出口部材30を小さくできる。その分、材料コストを低減できる。
 被収容物9が未充填の軟質容器1は底部が開放されている。この底部開口から内部に他の軟質容器1を挿し入れることができる。胴部10が僅かにテーパ状になっているため、挿し入れ操作を容易化できる。更には複数の軟質容器1,1…を順次一列に挿し入れて束ねることで、コンパクト化できる(図6(a)参照)。これによって、複数の軟質容器1,1…の保管スペースを小さくでき、搬送等を効率化できる。
 被収容物9は、軟質容器1の底部から軟質容器1内に充填される。充填後、軟質容器1の底部をヒートシールする。これによって、軟質容器1が密封される。胴部10のバリア層15及び先端シート部材20のバリア層25によって、外部の空気が軟質容器1内に侵入するのを阻止できる。これによって、被収容物9の品質を長期にわたって維持することができる。
 肩部22と頂部23とが滑らかに連続していることによって、これらの肩部22と頂部23の連続部分に大きな応力が掛かるのを防止できる。また、頂部23をドーム状にすることによって、被収容物9による内圧に対する耐圧性を高めることができる。更に、デザイン性を高めることができる。
 被収容物9を使用する際は、例えば頂部23に穴を開ける。雄ネジ部31bに装着されるノズル(図示省略)を尖らせておき、該ノズルの先端を吐出口部材30に挿し入れるとともに頂部23に突き刺して開穿してもよい。バリア層25の厚みを30~50μm程度、好ましくは40μm程度とすることによって、開穿操作に支障を来さないようにできる。
 開穿した軟質容器1を例えば吐出ガンにセットし、吐出ガンのプランジャで胴部10を軸方向に押し潰す。これによって、被収容物9が頂部23の開穿部を経て吐出口部材30から吐出される。肩部22がテーパ状であることで、被収容物9をスムーズに吐出できる。
 次に、本発明の他の実施形態を説明する。以下の実施形態において、既述の形態と重複する構成に関しては図面に同一符号を付して説明を適宜省略する。
<第2実施形態>
 図5は、本発明の第2実施形態を示したものである。図5に示すように、第2実施形態の軟質容器1Bには、吐出口部材30が設けられていない。先端シート部材20の肩部22及び頂部23の外面全体が、軟質容器1Bの外部に面している。
 図6に示すように、第2実施形態においては、軟質容器1Bの底部(図6(a)において下端)の開放部から内部に、他の軟質容器1Bを挿し入れる場合、これら軟質容器1B,1Bの先端シート部材20,20どうしがほぼ重なるまで、深く挿し入れることができる。したがって、複数の軟質容器1B,1B…を順次一列に挿し入れて束ねることで、これら複数の軟質容器1B,1B…を一層コンパクトな状態で保管、搬送等することができる。
<第3実施形態>
 図7は、本発明の第3実施形態を示したものである。図7(b)に示すように、第3実施形態の軟質容器1Cの先端シート部材20には、第1実施形態(図1)の吐出口部材30に代えて、環状(リング状)の吐出口部材30Cが設けられている。図7(a)に示すように、吐出口部材30Cは、肩部22の外面に接合されることよって先端シート部材20に支持されている。吐出口部材30Cの外径は胴部10の先端部の内径より十分小さい。吐出口部材30Cは、胴部10と直接には接してない。また、吐出口部材30Cの高さ(図7(a)において上下方向の寸法)は、第1実施形態(図2(a))の吐出口部材30よりも十分に小さい。図示は省略するが、吐出口部材30Cに吐出ガンのノズルが接続可能になっている。
 吐出口部材30C付き先端シート部材20は、第1実施形態と同様の方法で製造することができる。
<第4実施形態> 
 図8~図9は、本発明の第4実施形態を示したものである。図8(a)に示すように、第4実施形態の軟質容器1Dにおいては、被収容物9を充填した後の胴部10の底部に底シート部材40が設けられている。底シート部材40によって胴部10の底部が塞がれている。底シート部材40は、先端シート部材20とほぼ同一形状になっている。つまり、底シート部材40は、緩テーパ状の周側部41と、急テーパ状の肩部42と、ドーム状の頂部43を一体に有している。かつ、底シート部材40は、第2フィルム成形体48によって構成されている。第2フィルム成形体48は、全体的に一様(均一)な厚みを有し、かつ自立している。第2フィルム成形体48は、フィルム成形体28と同様に、絞り成形によって作製できる。
 更に、図8(b)に示すように、フィルム成形体48ひいては底シート部材40は、先端シート部材20と同一のラミネート構造になっている。つまり、底シート部材40は、直鎖状低密度ポリエチレン(LLDPE)からなる外層44と、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)からなる内層46と、アルミニウムからなる中間のバリア層45とを含む。バリア層45の厚み等はバリア層25と同様である。
 なお、底シート部材40の積層フィルム数、各層の厚み、材質等は、必ずしも前記に限られず、適宜改変できる。また、底シート部材40の形状及び大きさが先端シート部材20と多少違っていてもよい。
 底シート部材40は、胴部10の底部に接合されている。詳しくは、胴部10の底部が周側部41の外周面に被さり、かつ胴部10と周側部41とが溶着されている。ここでは、溶着方法として高周波溶着が用いられているが、必ずしもこれに限られるものではなく、超音波溶着や熱溶着等の他の溶着方法を用いてもよい。
 底シート部材40は、プランジャの代用となる。すなわち、図9に示すように、先端シート部材20の頂部23に穴を開け、底シート部材40を先端シート部材20へ向けて軸方向に押すことで、被収容物9を吐出させることができる。これに伴い、胴部10が潰れる。図9に示すように、最終的には、底シート部材40が先端シート部材20の内面側に嵌り込む。これによって、被収容物9を出し切ることができ、被収容物9の無駄を少なくできる。
<第5実施形態>
 図10及び図11は、本発明の第5実施形態を示したものである。図10(a)及び図10(b)に示すように、第5実施形態の軟質容器1Eにおいては、胴部10を構成するシート19の先端側の部分(同図において上側部分)が、先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30よりも先端側(同図において上側)へ延び出ており、先端延出部11を構成している。
 先端延出部11の基端部(同図において下端部)は、先端シート部材20の外周に沿うように円形になるとともに胴部10と一体に連なっている。
 先端延出部11の先端部(同図において上端部)は、周方向の一側部と他側部が重ね合わされてヒートシールされることによって封止され、封止部13となっている。先端シート部材20と封止部13との間の先端延出部11の内部空間11dが密封されている。
 図10(a)に示すように、封止部13の底辺部(同図において下辺部)には、半円状の凹部13dが形成されている。先端延出部11の内部空間11dが、半円状凹部13dの内部に入り込んでいる。
 封止部13の一側縁(図10(a)において左側縁)における底辺部近くには、切込み13eが形成されている。
 更に、封止部13には、フック孔13f(ハトメ)が形成されている。フック孔13fにフック等を通すことで、軟質容器1Eを吊り下げて保管することができる。
 第5実施形態の軟質容器1Eにおいては、先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30を先端延出部11内に封入できる。したがって、軟質容器1Eの運搬、保管等する際に先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30を手で直接、触れないようにしたり、空気中の細菌や塵埃が先端シート部材20及び吐出口部材30に付着するのを防止したりでき、衛生を向上できる。特に、被収容物9が飲料等の食材や薬液等の衛生管理を要する物である場合に効果的である。また、吐出口部材30の内部にゴミ等が入り込んで詰まるのを防止できる。
 更に、軟質容器1Eにおいては、先端シート部材20に多少の凹みが出来ていたとしても、先端延出部11によって先端シート部材20を覆うことで、外観上、見栄えを損なうのを防止できる。
 図11(a)に示すように、軟質容器1Eを使用する際は、切込み13eをきっかけにして、封止部13を幅方向(同図において左右)に切断する。これによって、切込み13eより先端側の封止部13を切除できる。切込み13より胴部10側の先端延出部11は残置される。かつ、切り口11eが半円状凹部13dを横切ることで、先端延出部11の内部空間11dが、切り口11eを介して開口される。図11(a)において二点鎖線にて示すように、この切り口11e(開口)からノズル2の基端部を先端延出部11の内部に挿し入れ、吐出ノズル2を吐出口部材30に取付ける。また、先端シート部材20の頂部23を開口させる(図11(b)参照)。これによって、被収容物9をノズル2から吐出させることができる。
 図11(b)に示すように、開口後の軟質容器1Eを保管するときは、ノズル2を取り外し、粘着テープ3で切り口11eを塞ぐことが好ましい。これによって、軟質容器1E内に空気が侵入するのを防止又は抑制でき、被収容物9が劣化したり変質したりするのを防止又は抑制できる。
 なお、ノズル2を付けたまま、該ノズル2の先端口をフィルム巻き付け等によって塞いでもよい。
<第6実施形態>
 図12~図20は、本発明の第6実施形態を示したものである。
<封筒貼り軟質容器1F>
 図17及び図18は、軟質容器1Fを、底部が未封止状態(開放状態)で、内容物が未充填の状態で示したものである。軟質容器1Fは、胴部10と、先端シート部材20と、吐出口部材30を備えている。胴部10の底部開放部(図18において下端)から内容物が充填された後、前記底部開放部がヒートシールによって封止される。内容物は、例えば接着剤、塗料、飲料等の流動体や粘性体である。
 胴部10は、例えば1枚のシート19を筒状に丸めて、該シート19の両端部19e,19fを封筒貼りしたものである。胴部10の周方向の一箇所に封筒貼り部10dが形成されている。封筒貼り部10dは、胴部10の長手方向の全長にわたって直線状に延びている。
 詳細な図示は省略するが、シート19は、ポリエチレン等の樹脂層とアルミニウム等の金属バリア層を含むラミネートシートである。好ましくは、胴部10は、底部から先端(図18において上端)へ向かって非常に緩やかに縮径するテーパ状になっている。胴部10のテーパ角度は、軟質容器1Fの軸線Lに対して好ましくは0.1°~0.5°程度、より好ましくは0.3°程度である。
 胴部10の先端部には、先端シート部材20が設けられている。先端シート部材20によって胴部10の先端部が塞がれている。先端シート部材20は、ポリエチレン等の樹脂層とアルミニウム等の金属バリア層を含むラミネートシートを絞り成形したものである。先端シート部材20の金属バリア層は、胴部10の金属バリア層よりも厚い。このため、先端シート部材20は、胴部10より硬く、自己保形性を有している。
 図17に示すように、先端シート部材20は、周側部21と、肩部22と、頂部23を一体に有している。周側部21は、略円筒状になっており、好ましくは先端側(肩部22の側)へ向かって非常に緩やかに縮径するテーパ状になっている。より好ましくは、周側部21のテーパ角度は、胴部10のテーパ角度に合わせられている。
 周側部21の先端部に急テーパの円錐面形状の肩部22が連なっている。肩部22の先端部(中央部)がドーム状ないしは部分球面状の頂部23によって塞がれている。
 先端シート部材20の外面にポリエチレン(PE)やポリプロピレン(PP)等の硬質樹脂からなる筒状の吐出口部材30が設けられている。吐出口部材30の内部通路の底部は、先端シート部材20の頂部23によって塞がれている。使用時は、頂部23に穴が開けられることで、内容物(被収容物)が吐出口部材30から吐出される。
 先端シート部材20の周側部21の外周面に胴部10の先端部が被さるようにして重ねられ、該重なり部分1dにおいて先端シート部材20と胴部10が接合されている。
<高周波溶着装置60F>
 図12に示すように、先端シート部材20と胴部10とは、高周波溶着装置60F(軟質容器製造装置における接合装置部分)によって接合される。高周波溶着装置60Fは、コア61Fと、外周押え部材62と、溶着ヘッド63を備えている。
 コア61Fは、ベースコア64と、トップコア65(先端近傍のコア部分)を有し、軸線L6に沿って鉛直に延びている。ベースコア64の上方に一対の連結板67を介してトップコア65が配置されている。ベースコア64及びトップコア65は、それぞれ円筒形状になっており、かつ外周面が、前記胴部10及び周側部21のテーパ角に合わせて、上へ向かって僅かに縮径するテーパ状になっている。トップコア65の先端部は、肩部22に合わせた円錐形状になっている。
 図12及び図13に示すように、トップコア65は、2つ(複数)の内周押え部材66を有する半割り構造になっている。これら内周押え部材66が、軸線L6を挟んで対峙するように周方向に分かれて配置されている。内周押え部材66の材質は、硬質樹脂であり、好ましくは耐熱性、絶縁性、滑り性の観点からポリエーテルエーテルケトン(PEEK)である。
 図12に示すように、各内周押え部材66とベースコア64とが、連結板67を介して連結されている。連結板67は、アルミニウムやスチールなどの金属によって構成され、弾性変形可能である。
 トップコア65の外周には、ゴム製の環状弾性部材68が装着されている。各内周押え部材66の外周面には、環状弾性部材68を収容する溝66dが周方向に延びるように形成されている。好ましくは、環状弾性部材68は、自然状態よりも少し拡径されて張力が働いている状態で溝66dに収容されている。このため、内周押え部材66には、環状弾性部材68からの径方向内側への力が常時かかっている。例えば環状弾性部材68としては、シール材として一般的なOリングを転用できる。
 コア61Fの軸線L6上に駆動軸69が配置されている。駆動軸69は、ベースコア64を貫通して、トップコア65に挿し入れられている。駆動軸69の先端部は、先細のテーパ部69eとなっている。駆動軸69の材質は、硬質樹脂であり、好ましくはPEEKである。
 トップコア65の内周面には、円錐凹面状のカム面65eが形成されている。各内周押え部材66におけるカム面65eは、半割り円錐凹面状である。テーパ部69eがカム面65eに当たっている。
 テーパ部69eとカム面65eとによってカム機構が構成されている。言い換えると、駆動軸69と内周押え部材66との間にカム機構69e,65eが設けられている。
 図15に示すように、駆動軸69は、エアシリンダなどの軸駆動部71によって軸線L6に沿って上方の前進位置と下方の後退位置との間で昇降するように変位可能である。
 図15(a)に示すように、駆動軸69を上昇させて前進位置にすると、テーパ部69eとカム面65eとのカム作用によって、内周押え部材66が径方向外側へ押し動かされる。したがって、トップコア65が拡径される。これに伴って、連結板67のトップコア65側の端部が外側へ反るように、連結板67が弾性変形される。かつ環状弾性部材68が、拡径方向へ弾性変形される。
 なお、図15(a)においてトップコア65の拡径度合は誇張されている。
 図15(b)に示すように、駆動軸69を下降させて後退位置にすると、板バネ状の連結板67及び環状弾性部材68の弾性復元力によって内周押え部材66が径方向内側へ押されて元の位置に引っ込む。これによって、トップコア65が縮径されて元の平常径に戻る。
 駆動軸69、軸駆動部71、連結板67及び環状弾性部材68によって、コア駆動手段が構成されている。更に連結板67及び環状弾性部材68は、内周付勢手段を構成している。
 図12及び図13に示すように、コア61Fの先端部の外側には、3つ(複数)の外周押え部材62が設けられている。これら外周押え部材62は、有蓋円筒を三ツ割にした部分円筒形状になっている。3つの外周押え部材62が、トップコア65を三方から囲んでいる。各外周押え部材62は、エアシリンダなどの外周押え駆動部72によって径方向へ進退可能である。好ましくは、3つの外周押え部材62が互いに同期して進退される。外周押え部材62の材質は、硬質樹脂であり、好ましくは耐熱性、絶縁性、滑り性の観点からPEEKである。
 図14に示すように、これら外周押え部材62のうち、1の外周押え部材62Aにおける内側面62s(トップコア65を向く面)には、突起62dが形成されている。図16(b)に示すように、突起62dは、内側面62sの周方向に延びている。図14に示すように、突起62dの延び方向と直交する断面は、概略三角形状になっており、かつ頂部がR面取りされて滑らかになっている。突起62dの突出高さは、胴部シート19の厚さの1倍より大きく、好ましくは胴部シート19の厚さの2倍より大きく、かつ胴部シート19の厚さの2倍と先端シート部材20の厚さとの合計よりも小さい。
 図12に示すように、溶着ヘッド63は、高周波誘導加熱コイルによって構成されている。該溶着ヘッド63が、3つの外周押え部材62を囲み、ひいてはトップコア65の外周を囲んでいる。
<軟質容器の製造方法>
 軟質容器1Fの製造方法を、胴部10と先端シート部材20との接合方法を中心に説明する。
 胴部10と先端シート部材20を別々に作製する。好ましくは胴部10の先端部と先端シート部材20の周側部21との間に一定のクリアランス(寸法差による隙間)が出来るように、胴部10及び先端シート部材20を作製する。
 先端シート部材20には吐出口部材30を接合する。好ましくは、先端シート部材20を樹脂シート材から絞り成形するのと同時に、吐出口部材30を前記樹脂シート材上で射出成形する。これによって、吐出口部材30と先端シート部材20とを、これらの成形と同時に一体的に接合する。
 前記吐出口部材30付き先端シート部材20及び胴部10を高周波溶着装置60Fへ送る。 
 高周波溶着装置60Fにおいては、駆動軸69を後退位置にして、トップコア65を平常径にしておく。また、外周押え部材62及び溶着ヘッド63を退避させておく。
 そして、前記吐出口部材30付きの先端シート部材20をコア61Fの先端に被せる。
 続いて、コア61Fの先端の下方に続く外周に胴部10を被せる。かつトップコア65の外周上(コア61Fの先端近傍の外周上)において、先端シート部材20の周側部21の外周側に胴部10の先端部を重ねる。
 トップコア65を平常径にしておくことによって、先端シート部材20及び胴部10をコア61Fに確実に被せることができる。しかも、胴部10の先端部と先端シート部材20の周側部21との間にクリアランスが設けられることによって、先端シート部材20の周側部21の外周に胴部10の先端部を容易に被せることができる。胴部10を被せる際に胴部10が破けるのを防止できる。
 胴部10の封筒貼り部10dは、突起62d付きの外周押え部材62Aの方向へ向けておく。
 その後、外周押え部材62及び溶着ヘッド63を図12に示す規定の位置にセットする。
 図16(a)に拡大して示すように、この段階では、胴部10と先端シート部材20との重なり部分1dにおける封筒貼り部10dに、貼り部内隙間10eが形成されている場合がある。貼り部内隙間10eは、内側のシート端部19eの端面と、外側のシート端部19fの内面と、先端シート部材20の外周面とによって画成され、シート端部19eの端面に沿って、図16(a)の紙面直交方向へ延びている。隙間10eの下端部(図16(a)の紙面奥)は、周側部21の下端の高さにおいて胴部10の内部空間に連なっている。隙間10eの上端部(図16(a)の紙面手前)は、胴部10の上端の高さにおいて外部に連なっている。
 次に、駆動軸69を前進位置にすることで、トップコア65を拡径させる。これによって、先端シート部材20の周側部21が、2つの内周押え部材66からなるトップコア65によって内周側から押し広げられる。
 さらに、3つの外周押え部材62を3方向からエアシリンダなどの外周押え駆動部72によって径方向内側へ弾性的に付勢する。
 これによって、先端シート部材20の周側部21と胴部10の先端部との重なり部分1dが、全周にわたって外周押え部材62と内周押え部材66との間に強く挟み付けられる。この結果、先端シート部材20の周側部21と胴部10の先端部とが全周にわたってぴったりと接し、前記クリアランスが解消される。
 さらに、図14及び図16(b)に示すように、1の外周押え部材62Aの内側面62sが、胴部10の封筒貼り部10dと対面される。かつ該内側面62sの突起62dが、封筒貼り部10dひいては貼り部内隙間10eを横切るようにして、胴部10と先端シート部材20の重なり部分1dに喰い込む。該突起62dが喰い込んだ部分10fでは、胴部10及び先端シート部材20が強く圧縮される。これによって、貼り部内隙間10eが、突起62dとの交差部分10pにおいて局所的に潰される。
 その状態で、溶着ヘッド63の高周波誘導加熱コイルに高周波電流を供給する。これによって、トップコア65の外周上の胴部10及び先端シート部材20の金属バリア層がそれぞれ加熱される。言い換えると、溶着ヘッド63からトップコア65の外周上に溶着エネルギーが供給される。これによって、該外周上の胴部10及び先端シート部材20の樹脂層が加熱溶融され、これら胴部10と先端シート部材20とが溶着される。
 これによって、軟質容器1Fが作製される。
 前述したように、先端シート部材20と胴部10の間のクリアランスが全周にわたって解消されているために、これら先端シート部材20と胴部10を全周にわたってしっかりと溶着して接合できる。この結果、完成した軟質容器1Fに前記クリアランスに起因する隙間が形成されるのを防止できる。
 更に、貼り部内隙間10eが突起62dと交差する部分10pにおいて局所的に潰されるために、該局所部分10pを溶着することで、貼り部内隙間10eを塞ぐことができる。詳しくは、図16(c)に示すように、局所部分10pにおいては、例えばシート端部19fが、シート端部19eの端面に沿って変形して該端面としっかりと溶着され、隙間が無くなる。このため、貼り部内隙間10eが局所部分10pにおいて分断される。これよって、軟質容器1Fの内部空間が、貼り部内隙間10eを通して外部と連通するのを回避できる。この結果、軟質容器1F内の内容物が貼り部内隙間10eを通って漏れ出たり、外気が貼り部内隙間10eを通って軟質容器1F内に入り込んだりするのを防止できる。
 また、外周押え部材62によって、先端シート部材20と胴部10の重なり部分1dの径寸法を安定させることができ、軟質容器1Fの寸法精度を高めることができる。
 前記溶着工程後、駆動軸69を下方へ後退させ、連結板67及び環状弾性部材68の弾性復元力によって内周押え部材66を径方向内側へ引っ込ませることで、トップコア65を元の平常径に戻す。
 また、外周押え部材62及び溶着ヘッド63を退避させる。
 そして、軟質容器1Fをコア61Fから上方へ引き抜いて取り出す。胴部10及び先端シート部材20の周側部21をわずかに先細のテーパ状に形成しておくことで、コア61Fからの引き抜き操作を容易化できる。
<合掌貼り軟質容器1G>
 図19及び図20は、軟質容器の変形例を示したものである。
 図19に示すように、当該軟質容器1Gにおいては、胴部10を構成するシート19の両端部19e,19fが合掌貼りされている。このため、図20(a)に示すように、先端シート部材20及び胴部10をコア61Fに被せた段階では、両端部19e,19fにおける付け根どうし間と、先端シート部材20の周側部21の外周面との間に貼り部内隙間10eが形成される。
 その後、トップコア65と外周押え部材62とで胴部10と先端シート部材20の重なり部分1dを挟み付け、突起62dを合掌貼り部10gと交差させて重なり部分1dに喰い込ませることで、貼り部内隙間10eが押し潰される。この状態で重なり部分1dを溶着する。これによって、図20(b)に示すように、貼り部内隙間10eを塞ぐことができる。
 本発明は、前記実施形態に限られず、その趣旨を逸脱しない範囲内で種々の改変をなすことができる。
 例えば、頂部23が平らであってもよい。
 シート成形体28の樹脂層の厚みや材質等の選択によって自立性を確保してもよい。
