Description

  The present invention relates to a container for storing hot beverages such as coffee, tea, and tea.

A main part of the body is formed with a vertically-decreasing vacuum absorbing surface (mirror part), covering the whole of the vacuum absorbing surface and covering a label, and a lower part of the recess of the vacuum absorbing surface. It is conventionally known that at least one concave groove extending downward and reaching the outside of the label is formed on each of the vacuum absorbing surfaces (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
No. 7-4163

  However, in the bottle described in Patent Document 1, the whole of the vacuum absorbing surface is covered with a label, but since the vacuum absorbing surface that is vertically recessed is large, the label bends when the bottle is gripped, and coffee, tea, tea When a beverage heated to a high temperature such as a finger is put, there is a problem that fingers cannot touch the hot bottle directly and cannot be gripped.

  This invention makes it a subject to solve the said problem, and it aims at providing the container for hot drinks which formed the uneven | corrugated | grooved part in the trunk | drum and coat | covered the uneven | corrugated | grooved part with the label.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is a hot beverage container in which a label is attached to a container as a hot beverage container, and the container includes a mouth and a shoulder, a trunk and a bottom, The body part is formed with a concavo-convex part formed in a corrugated cross section excluding the upper and lower end parts, a groove leading to the concave part of the concavo-convex part is provided in the lower end part of the shoulder part and the leg wall part of the bottom part, and the label is The bottom end of the shoulder and the end of the groove provided in the bottom leg wall are exposed so that the bottom end of the shoulder of the container, the bottom leg wall, and the uneven part of the trunk are covered. A configuration characterized by the above is adopted.

  As another example of a container for hot beverages, a container for hot beverages with a label attached to the container, the container comprises a mouth and a shoulder, a trunk and a bottom, a shoulder lower end and a trunk, In addition, an uneven portion formed in a corrugated cross section is formed in a portion including the leg wall portion of the bottom portion, and the label is exposed at the lower end portion of the shoulder portion of the container and the end portion of the uneven portion provided in the leg wall portion of the bottom portion. Thus, the structure characterized by coat | covering the uneven | corrugated | grooved part of the lower end part of the shoulder part of a container, a trunk | drum, and the leg wall part of a bottom part is employ | adopted.

  As an embodiment of the label, a structure characterized in that the label is formed of a shrink label, or a structure characterized in that the label is formed of a shrink label made of a foam film having heat insulation properties. As a modified embodiment of the concavo-convex portion, a configuration is adopted in which the convex portion of the concavo-convex portion of the container is formed in a fine concavo-convex shape.

By covering the body part with irregularities formed in a corrugated cross section with a label, the number of parts that directly touch a hot container with fingers etc. is extremely small, and hot drinks such as coffee, tea, tea etc. are used When grasping a beverage container such as a drink, the temperature of the liquid is not transmitted directly to the fingers, so the feeling of use of the container is improved.
Moreover, also in cooling after heat-filling drinks etc., a cooling effect can also be heightened by circulation of cooling water.

  Next, examples of the hot beverage container of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  In FIG. 1, A is a container, B is a label, and C is a cap.

The container A includes a mouth portion 1 and a shoulder portion 2, a trunk portion 3 and a bottom portion 4.
A screw 1a is screwed to the mouth portion 1, and a neck ring 1b is provided below the screw 1a.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the body portion 3 is provided with a concavo-convex portion 8 formed of a convex portion 6 and a concave portion 7 formed in a corrugated cross section at an intermediate portion 5 thereof.

  A plurality of grooves 9 are formed in the lower part of the shoulder 2 so as to communicate with the recess 7 of the body 3, and a plurality of grooves 10 are formed from the leg wall 4 a of the bottom 4 to the recess 7 of the body 3. A communication hole communicating with the outside air is formed between the label B and the label B.

  The label B covers the lower end portion of the shoulder portion 2, the uneven portion 8 formed in a corrugated cross section, and the upper end portion of the bottom portion 4.

  The cap C is screwed into the screw 1 a of the mouth 1 of the container A and is screwed to the mouth 1 of the container A.

Next, usage modes and operational effects of the container of the first embodiment will be described.
The container A of the present invention is filled with a hot beverage such as coffee, tea or tea, and sold in a state of being kept warm by a vending machine or the like.
When the container containing the hot beverage is taken out from the vending machine or the like and the container A is gripped with fingers, the body has the convex portion 6 of the trunk, and the temperature is lowered by heat radiation and is easily gripped.
Moreover, since air is flowing up and down through the grooves 9 and 10 in the concave portion 7, the concave and convex portion 8 is kept at a lower temperature, and the container A can be easily gripped even if a hot beverage is contained.

  In addition, when the contents are heated and filled, after being filled with a high-temperature beverage, it is cooled to a certain temperature with a cooling shower. Since the gap flows from the upper side to the lower side through the grooves 9, 10, the cooling effect can be enhanced.

  Next, a second embodiment in which the air permeability between the uneven portion of the container and the label is further improved will be described focusing on the differences.

  In FIG. 3, Aa is a container, B is a label, and C is a cap.

The container Aa includes a mouth portion 11 and a shoulder portion 12, and a trunk portion 13 and a bottom portion 14.
The body portion 13 is provided with a concavo-convex portion 18 formed of a convex portion 16 and a concave portion 17 formed in a corrugated cross section at a portion including the lower end portion of the shoulder portion 12 and the leg wall portion 15 of the bottom portion 14.

  The label B covers and sticks to the lower end of the shoulder 12, the entire length of the body 13, and the vicinity of the bottom end of the bottom 14, and the upper and lower ends of the concavo-convex part 18 communicate with the outside air.

Next, usage modes and effects of the second embodiment will be described.
When gripping a container containing hot beverage with fingers, the top and bottom of the concavo-convex portion 18 communicates with the outside air, so that heat is dissipated more than the first embodiment, and the concavo-convex portion 18 is cooled. It is easy to grip the convex portion 16.
Moreover, since cooling water flows into the uneven | corrugated | grooved part 18 also when it heat-fills, a cooling effect can be improved further.

  Furthermore, by providing a cross-sectional corrugated shape from the label B to the bottom 14 of the bottom 14 up to the leg wall 15, the uneven portion 18 of the leg wall 15 acts, and the container Aa is displayed at the storefront when it is transported on the production line. Occasionally, the convex portion 16 of the leg wall portion 15 comes into contact with the support surface and prevents slipping, so that it is possible to prevent falls and the like.

In each of the above embodiments, the containers A and Aa can be easily covered by using the label B as a heat-shrinkable shrink label.
Moreover, in each said Example, the shrink label which consists of a foam film which has heat insulation can be used as the label B, and the heat insulation effect can be acquired.

  Furthermore, in each said Example, a fine uneven | corrugated shape may be given to the plane of the convex parts 6 and 16 of the uneven | corrugated | grooved part of a container, and it may be a rough surface, and a higher heat insulation effect can be acquired.

  The present invention provides a container with a concave and convex portion formed in a corrugated cross-section, and covers the label, so that the number of portions where fingers or the like directly touch the container is extremely small, and hot beverages such as coffee, tea, and tea. It can be widely used as a container for other hot drinks.

It is a half section elevation of the container for hot beverages of the present invention. (A) is an enlarged view of the a part of FIG. 1 of a shoulder part, (b) is a cutaway view of the container in the AA line of FIG. It is a half-section elevation of the container of another Example of this invention.
