Description

  The present invention relates to a closure structure between a lid of a packaging container and a container body, which is a resin sheet molded product, and relates to an engagement structure that allows the container body and the lid to be closely engaged without being easily detached. Is.

  Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 7, the container body 100 and the lid closing made of resin sheet molding are not provided with a structure for engaging the lid body with the flange portion 101 standing up. The engagement portion 103 having a shape slightly narrowed down on the lower side is formed only on the lid 102, and the engagement portion 103 of the lid 102 is engaged with the peripheral cut portion 104 of the flange portion 101 of the container main body 100 to close it. It is common to put a lid. And since the depth of the general engaging part 103 becomes undercut, it is necessary to release from the mold while the resin sheet is soft, so it is limited to about 0.5 mm. However, in such a conventional structure, since the resin sheet constituting the container is relatively thin, when the flange portion 101 of the container main body is deformed by twisting or the like, the engagement of the lid body is easily released. There was a problem. Further, since it is necessary to close the lid 102 with the flange portion 101 of the container main body 100 covered from the outside, the lower peripheral edge 104 of the lid body 102 is located below the flange portion 101 of the container main body 100. Jumping out is inevitable. Therefore, when a hand etc. touches the lower peripheral part 104 of the cover body 102 carelessly, there also exists a problem that a cover will remove | deviate easily.

  Therefore, in order to avoid the lid from being easily removed, the container body and the lid body may be fixed with an adhesive tape in the closed state, or the entire container may be further wrapped with a shrink-processed film. In addition, it was necessary to fix the tape after storing the food in the back yard of a supermarket, etc., or to wrap it with a film. In some cases it had the double problem of being troublesome.

JP 2012-86878 A

  For this purpose, the applicant has a configuration as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 of Patent Document 1, and forms a convex portion on the container body and a concave portion corresponding to the convex portion on the container body, and engages each. A structure was proposed. In this configuration, the problem that the container body is twisted because the shoulder part is formed on the container body can solve the problem, but the engagement of each uneven part is still in a sweet state, and further on the top surface side of the lid body. When the containers containing the contents are stacked, the step of the lid is deformed and the convex part formed on the lid is deformed outward, so that the lid can be easily removed with a slight impact. There was a case.

  The present invention solves these conventional problems, and prevents the lid from coming off easily by strengthening the fitting between the container body and the lid, and has a structure that can be easily closed by a simple operation when the lid is closed. The object is to provide a packaging container.

  In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a packaging container comprising a container body and a lid, the container body having a bottom surface, a wall surface rising from the periphery of the bottom surface, and facing outward with respect to the wall surface. The lid body has a flange portion for fitting the lid, and a reverse taper surface is provided from the lid fitting flange through the rounded portion, while the lid body is continuous downward from the top plate and the periphery of the top plate. The lid body wall, the lid flange portion that expands outward from the lower edge of the lid body wall, and the lid reverse taper surface is extended from the lid flange portion via the lid radius portion. The means of making the depth of the reverse taper surface of the lid correspond to the depth of the reverse taper surface of the container body was used. In the present invention, “corresponding” means that the depth is matched and the depth of the reverse taper surface of the lid is somewhat shallower than the depth of the reverse taper surface of the container body, but the reverse taper surface of the lid is deeply related. It includes the range to achieve a reliable closing by combining. In the present invention, since the reverse tapered surface is formed on both the container main body and the lid, the lid reverse tapered surface provided on the lid temporarily goes over the rounded portion of the container main body and becomes the reverse tapered surface of the container main body. It will be engaged, and a positive engagement is realized. The outer shape of the packaging container in the present invention is widely applied to a circle, an ellipse, an oval, a rectangle, a hexagon, and the like.

  Moreover, about the dimension, the means of setting the depth of a reverse taper surface and a cover reverse taper surface to 0.5-4.0 mm was used. With this means, the container body and the lid can be reliably engaged, and at the same time, the lid can be opened without using a strong force when the lid is opened. Furthermore, when the depth of the cover reverse taper surface is sufficient, means for making the depth of the cover reverse taper surface relatively shallower than the depth of the reverse taper surface was also used.

  Further, by using a means for forming the folded portion further outward from the reverse tapered surface of the container body or a means for forming the folded surface further outward from the reverse taper surface of the lid, these can be used for the flange. Cuts the end of the lid carelessly by adopting means that fulfills the function and does not exceed the cut end of the folded surface of the lid outside the outer periphery of the folded portion of the container body It is possible to avoid hitting the end.

  Furthermore, as the engagement structure between the container body and the lid, the rounded portion and the reverse tapered surface of the container body are formed on the entire circumference, or intermittently formed on the outer circumference instead of the entire circumference, and the rounded portion of the lid is formed. Similarly, the engagement structure can be selected according to the intended use of the container by the structure in which the lid reversely tapered surface is formed intermittently with respect to the outer periphery.

  According to the present invention, the engagement between the container main body and the lid can be reliably realized, and an accident that the lid is accidentally opened can be prevented.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a longitudinally cut end surface of a packaging container according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is a container body and 2 is a lid. The container body 1 and the lid body 2 are each manufactured by a known molding method such as vacuum molding using a molding die, compressed air molding, or vacuum / pressure pneumatic molding. The basic configuration of the container body 1 includes a content container 3, a bottom surface 4 of the content container 3, and a wall surface 5 that rises around the bottom surface 4. As an important configuration of the present invention, a flange portion 6 that expands outward from the wall surface 5 is formed, a peripheral wall portion 7 is formed in an annular shape downward from the entire circumference of the outer peripheral edge of the flange portion 6, and the peripheral wall portion 7 A flange 8 for lid fitting is formed from the outer side toward the outer side, continues to the reverse tapered surface 10 through the rounded portion 9, and a folded portion 11 is formed from the reverse tapered surface 10 toward the outer side. Since the rounded portion 9 is a configuration necessary for forming the reverse tapered surface 10, the curvature of the rounded portion is not particularly limited. Further, since it is important that the reverse tapered surface 10 appears with respect to the lid fitting flange 8, specifically, an angular configuration may be used instead of a round shape. Thus, the rounded portion in the present invention refers to a configuration for the reverse tapered surface to continue from the lid fitting flange.

  In addition, about the flange part 6 and the surrounding wall part 7 which were shown to this embodiment, it may abbreviate | omit depending on the contents with respect to the container main body 1. FIG. That is, a configuration in which the lid fitting flange 8 is directly connected from the wall surface 5 is also included in the present invention.

  Next, the configuration of the lid body 2 will be described. The lid 2 is basically composed of a top plate 21 and a lid wall 22 that continues downward from the periphery of the top plate 21. As an important configuration, the lid flange portion 24 expands outward from the lower edge portion 23 of the lid wall 22, and corresponds to the rounded portion 9 of the container body 1 from the outer periphery of the lid flange portion 24. Then, the lid round portion 25 is provided, and the lid reverse taper surface 26 extends from the lid round portion 25, and further continues to the folded surface 27. In addition, it is preferable that the round shape of the lid round portion 25 substantially coincides with the round portion 9 of the container body, but it is not necessary to completely coincide.

  2 is a partial cross-sectional view showing only the engaging portion of the container main body 1, FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view of the lid 2, and FIG. 4 is a diagram in which the lid 2 is engaged with the container main body 1. It is a partial sectional view showing a state. Here, the engagement state of the container body 1 and the lid body 2 shows a state in which the round shape of the round portion 9 of the container body and the round shape of the lid round portion 25 coincide with each other. There is no need to match. In this state, an important configuration is that the lid reverse taper surface 26 engages with the reverse taper surface 10 of the container main body 1 so that the two closely engage with each other. The length of the taper surface 10 and the length of the lid reverse taper surface 26 need not be strictly limited. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the lower end peripheral part of the cover body 2 is made so that the cut end 28 of the return surface 27 formed in the cover body 2 does not exceed the return section 11 formed in the container body 1. It is possible to prevent the (cut end 28) from inadvertently hitting a person's hand and causing the lid to erroneously open the lid.

  In the description of the present embodiment, the rounded portion 9 formed on the container main body 1 and the reverse tapered surface 10 continuous thereto, the lid rounded portion 25 formed on the lid 2, and the lid reversely tapered surface 26. However, what is necessary is that the container body 1 and the lid body 2 are intimately engaged with each other by these configurations. Therefore, the present invention also contemplates that each of them is provided intermittently at a corresponding position in the outer periphery, or intermittently formed on the entire periphery on one side and on the outer periphery on the other.

  Next, further embodiments of the engaging portion between the container body 1 and the lid body 2 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, and the portions denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the previous embodiment indicate the same portions. The difference from the previous embodiment as a configuration is that the folded portion 11 of the container body 1 is configured by a vertical folded portion 11a that vertically falls from the lower end of the reverse tapered surface 10, and a horizontal folded portion 11b. The basic functions are not different from the previous embodiment. Here, the undercut depth D of the reverse taper surface 10 of the container body 1 and the lid reverse taper surface 26 is set to 0.5 to 4.0 mm, and the reverse taper surfaces 10 and 26 are perpendicular to each other. Set to 30-90 degrees. In addition, although 90 degree | times is substantially equivalent to a return here, it is preferable to make it the state which does not completely overlap a folding | returning part but a space | gap exists. Therefore, it is precisely less than 90 degrees. Thus, in order to deepen the undercut, a slide core is used for a mold used for sheet molding. If the depth D is shallower than 0.5 mm, the lid can be easily removed as in the conventional problem. On the other hand, if the depth D is too deep, it is necessary to apply an extra force when the lid is opened. Then, the depth D is set in this way. Regarding the depth D, the depth of the reverse taper surface 10 and the depth of the lid reverse taper surface 26 may be completely matched. However, by making the depth of the cover reverse taper surface 26 sufficiently deep, The extension length may be relatively shorter than the tapered surface 10, that is, it may be somewhat shallower. As for the taper angle, if the angle is smaller than 30 degrees, the reverse taper surface 10 becomes too high to make the depth D deep, the stackability of the container body deteriorates, and the transfer to the transport box during transport becomes difficult. I can not increase the number. Therefore, the angle is set to an angle exceeding 30 degrees.
