Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a liquid for lowering the overall height by bending a joining portion of a take-out tool in a lateral direction with respect to a shaft portion, thereby improving the loading efficiency when the box is packed in a cardboard box. It relates to a filling container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, as a liquid filling container for filling orange juice, there is provided a bag-like container having an upper opening made of a flexible film, and a dispensing tool integrally formed with a mouth, a joint, and a shaft. 2. Description of the Related Art There is known a liquid filling container having a configuration in which a joining portion of an ejection tool is fixed to an open end of a bag-shaped container. In the liquid-filled container, since the mouth, the joint, and the shaft of the ejection tool are integrally formed, when the joint of the ejection tool is fixed to the open end of the bag-shaped container having the upper opening, the mouth of the ejection tool is Has a structure extending vertically upward from the upper end of the bag-shaped container.

[0003]

The above-mentioned liquid-filled container is
Since the mouth of the removal tool extends upward from the bag-shaped container, when the contents are filled, the mouth of the removal tool maintains the state of extending above the bag-shaped container. for that reason,
When the liquid-filled containers filled with the contents are stacked vertically in a cardboard box and packed together to transport the liquid-filled containers filled with the contents to the destination, the liquid-filled containers adjacent to each other in the vertical direction are The interval is required to be the height of the bag-like container plus the height of the protrusion of the mouth, and the protrusion of the mouth of the removal tool for the liquid-filled container becomes a useless space. It is a bottleneck for improving efficiency. The present invention has been made in view of the above point, by bending the portion above the joint of the removal tool in the lateral direction, the height of the liquid filling container to the height of the bag-like container, thereby ,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid filling container capable of eliminating a useless space when the liquid filling container is packed in a cardboard box and improving the loading efficiency of the cardboard box.

[0004]

The liquid-filled container of the present invention has a bag-like container having an upper opening made of a flexible film, and a joint located between a mouth, a shaft, and a mouth and a shaft. In a liquid-filled container having an extraction tool having a joint fixed to the opening end of the bag-shaped container, the shaft of the extraction tool and the joining section are rotatably connected to each other, and a portion above the joining section of the extraction tool is connected. By bending in the lateral direction, wasteful space in the case of packing the cardboard boxes is eliminated, and the loading efficiency is improved. In the liquid filling container of the present invention, by pivotally connecting the shaft of the dispensing tool to the joint by the pin means, the portion above the joint of the dispensing tool is easily bent laterally to maintain the bent state. Can be. In the liquid-filled container of the present invention, by connecting the shaft of the dispenser to the joint via the bellows, the portion above the joint of the dispenser can be easily laterally bent.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a liquid filling container according to the present invention. The liquid-filled container 1 includes a bag-shaped container 2 having an open upper end, and an extraction tool 3 fixed to an open end of the bag-shaped container 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, the bag-shaped container 2 comprises a polyester film 4 having a thickness of 12 μm, an aluminum foil 5 having a thickness of 9 μm, and a stretched nylon film 6 having a thickness of 15 μm.
And a flexible structure made of a laminated film 8 of a polyethylene film 7 having a thickness of 60 μm to 120 μm. This laminated film 8 is an example,
An appropriate laminated film can be selected as long as the structure has flexibility.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the removal tool 3 has a mouth 11 provided with a screw portion 10 on the outer surface, and a joining surface and a lower end portion 12a extending below the joining surface. And a shaft portion 1 rotatably connected to a lower end portion 12a of the joint portion 12 by a pin means.
And 3. The shaft portion 13 has pins 14, 14 protruding radially outward at an upper portion. Holes 15, 15 in which the pins 14, 14 are mounted are formed in a lower end portion 12a located below the joint surface of the joint portion 12.

The removal tool 3 is provided with holes 15, 1 provided at a lower end 12a of a joint 12 integrally formed at a lower end of a mouth 11.
By attaching the pins 14, 14 of the shaft 13 to the joint 5, the joint 12 integrally formed at the lower end of the mouth 11 is rotatable with respect to the shaft 13. When pivotally connecting the joint 12 and the shaft 13, an opening 16 is formed between the joint 12 and the shaft 13. The opening 16 is formed by inverting the liquid filling container 1,
The filled contents can be taken out without leaving.

Next, the operation will be described. The empty liquid-filled container 1 is conveyed to the destination after filling the contents,
When the contents are filled in the liquid-filled container 1 filled with the contents, the opening 11 of the removal tool 3 is maintained in a state of protruding above the bag-like container 2 as in the conventional case. The liquid-filled container 1 filled with the contents is, as shown in FIG.
By rotating a portion above the joint 12 of the removal tool 3 by 90 degrees about the pin connection portion, the joint 12 of the removal tool 3 is rotated.
The upper part is bent laterally. In this case, the shaft 13
Of the liquid filling container 1 by tightly fitting the pins 14, 14 with the holes 15, 15 provided in the lower end 12 a of the joint 12.
Can hold a state in which the portion of the removal tool 3 above the joint 12 is bent in the lateral direction.

As shown in FIG. 5, the liquid filling container 1 in which the portion above the joining portion 12 of the extracting device 3 is bent in the horizontal direction is arranged in a vertical direction in a cardboard box (not shown) by ordinary means. Is stored. The height of the liquid-filled container 1 packed in the cardboard box can be made lower than that of the conventional one by bending the portion above the joint 12 of the extraction tool 3 in the horizontal direction. Loading efficiency can be improved by eliminating useless space in the case of stuffing.

FIGS. 6 and 7 show another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a bellows portion 26 is provided between a shaft portion 24 of an extraction tool 23 and a joint portion 25, and a joint portion 25 is provided.
The upper part is rotated about the bellows part 26. In this case, an opening 27 can be provided in the bellows portion 26.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, the shaft and the joint of the take-out device fixed to the opening end of the bag-like container having the upper opening made of a flexible film are rotatably connected. By bending the portion above the joint of the removal tool with respect to the shaft, the height dimension can be made lower than the conventional one, and the loading efficiency when packing in a cardboard box can be improved. it can.
