Description

  The present invention relates to a container provided with a base cup, and intends to easily realize a stacked connection of the containers.

  There are many containers that contain emulsions, lotions, foods, etc. that have been devised in appearance to increase purchase motivation. There are now specific proposals for products that are sold as skin lotions and emulsions, shampoos, rinses, body soaps, etc.) and that allow containers to be stored compactly by connecting the containers one above the other. However, it does not exist.

In addition, since the blow container made of synthetic resin that contains carbonated drinks and soft drinks is required to have pressure resistance and heat resistance, the bottom of the container is usually molded into a spherical shape. A base cup is disposed at the bottom of each type of container so that the container can stand up stably (see, for example, Patent Document 1), but such a base cup is not supposed to be stacked up between containers. there were.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-22336

  The subject of this invention exists in the place which proposes the novel container which can laminate-connect several containers.

The present invention has a cap that has a cap that can be attached and detached by engagement by screwing or undercut, and that forms a take-out port for the content, and is integrally connected to the cylinder and is filled with the content inside. A container body, and a base cup for detachably connecting to the body lower part or bottom of the container body to place and hold the container body,
The cylindrical body is provided with a ring that is integrally formed on the outer wall thereof and has a cutout portion in which an edge is cut out at at least one place around the periphery,
The base cup has a peripheral wall having an engaging means that is detachably engaged with the lower or bottom of the body of the container body at the upper end opening thereof, and is downwardly connected integrally with the lower end of the peripheral wall to insert the cylindrical body together with the ring. Consisting of a bottom wall that divides the dome-shaped space area open to
A container provided with a base cup, wherein a bayonet-type linkage portion is provided on the bottom wall so as to fit in the notch portion of the ring and removably connect the base cup to the container body.

  In the container having the above-described configuration, a protrusion that engages with the linkage portion and locks the base cup can be provided at the cutout portion of the ring, and the linkage portion contacts the lower surface of the ring. A guide plate that slidably holds the ring in contact with the guide plate, and a plurality of protrusions that are positioned on the upper side surface of the ring and sandwich the ring between the guide plate and the guide plate.

  Since a plurality of containers having the same shape can be connected via a base cup arranged at the bottom of the container, not only can it be sold as a single product with a plurality of containers connected, but also compact storage by stacking containers It becomes possible.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an external perspective view showing an embodiment of a container having a base cup according to the present invention in an exploded state, and FIGS. 2 (a) to 2 (c) are plan, side and bottom views of the container. 3 (a) to (c) are a plan view, a side view and a bottom view of the base cup.

  In the figure, 1 is a container body that forms a filling space for contents, and 2 is a cylinder that is integrally connected to the container body 1. The cylindrical body 2 forms a take-out port 2a for taking out the contents of the container body 1.

  Reference numeral 3 denotes a ring (neck ring) integrally formed with the cylindrical body 2. The ring 3 has a notch 3a cut out at least at one place around the edge, and a protrusion 3b for realizing engagement by undercut is formed on the side wall of the notch 3a. .

  4 is a base cup. The base cup 4 is integrally connected with a peripheral wall 4a having an upper end opening and a lower end of the peripheral wall 4a. The base cup 4 is a dome-shaped space region M (see FIG. It consists of a bottom wall 4b that divides b) and (c).

  The upper end opening of the peripheral wall 4a is adapted to an annular protrusion 4c that is detachably engaged (undercut engagement) with an annular groove 1a provided in the lower part of the body of the container body 1 and a vertical groove 1b of the container body 1 A vertical rib 4d is formed to keep the container body 1 and the base cup 4 from rotating relative to each other (see FIG. 1), and the base wall 4b is adapted to the notch 3a of the ring 3 on the bottom wall 4b. A bayonet-type (inserted and fixed by rotation) linking portion 4e (see FIGS. 3A to 3C) and a pair of window holes 4f are formed.

  Further, 5 is a vertical rib (see FIGS. 3 (a) and (b)) that connects the peripheral wall 4a and the bottom meridian 4b to each other and abuts against the bottom of the container body 1 (see FIGS. 3 (a) and (b)). A cap that seals the take-out port 2a (may be engaged by undercut).

The linkage portion 4e is in contact with the lower surface of the ring 3 and holds the guide plate 4e ₁ so as to be slidable, and a stopper that is integrally provided at the end of the guide plate 4e ₁ and engages with the protrusion 3b of the ring 3. 4e ₂ and a plurality of projections 4e ₃ (vertical ribs or the like) positioned on the upper side of the ring 3 around the bottom wall 4b and sandwiched between the guide plate 4e ₁ .

As shown in FIG. 4, the container having the above-described structure is formed by inserting (inserting) a cylindrical body 2 ′ of another container 1 ′ into the space region M of the base cup 4 together with the ring 3 ′. As shown in FIG. 5, the portion 3a 'and the connecting portion 4e of the base cup 4 are fitted as shown in FIG. 5, and at least one of the container body 1' and the base cup 4 is rotated so that the ring 3 'is aligned with the guide plate 4e _1. As shown in FIG. 6, one end of the notch 3a 'comes into contact with the stopper 4e ₂ and at the same time the protrusion 3b' of the notch 3a 'gets over the stopper 4e ₂ . The container and the base cup 3 are locked and maintained in a connected state.

  The base cup 4 and another container can be applied with a bayonet-type linkage part 4e as shown in the figure, but if the base cup 4 and the container can be easily connected and disconnected, It is not limited to those.

  In addition, the bottom wall 4b of the base cup 4 is provided with a window hole 4f penetrating on the front and back, but this window hole 4f is provided as necessary, and its installation is optional.

  A plurality of containers according to the present invention can be arranged in a stacked manner via the base cup 4, and for example, three containers can be sold as a set as one set, and the containers can be compacted by overlapping each other. Storage is possible.

  Although the case where the base cup 4 is engaged with the undercut at the lower portion of the body portion of the container body 1 is shown as an example, the base cup 4 may be engaged at the bottom portion of the container body 1, and this point is not limited.

  In the base cup 4, the bottom wall 4 b is formed in a dome shape opened downward, and the cylindrical body 2 is inserted together with the ring 3 in a space area M partitioned there, and accordingly, at the bottom of the container body 1. Can form a recess 1c (see FIGS. 2 (b) and 2 (c)) for inserting the bottom wall 4b, thereby reducing the overall length of the stacked containers. .

  A plurality of containers can be connected for sale as a single unit, and a container with a base cup that can be stored compactly by a stacked arrangement can be provided.

It is the figure which showed embodiment of the container with a base cup according to this invention. (a)-(c) is the figure which showed the plane of the main-body part of the container shown in FIG. 1, the side surface, and the bottom face. (a)-(c) is the figure which showed the plane of the base cup of the container shown in FIG. 1, the side surface, and the bottom face. It is the figure which showed the state which accumulated the container shown in FIG. It is a figure explaining the connection state of a base cup and a container main body. It is a figure explaining the connection state of a base cup and a container main body.
