For example, the main component side sealing material 216 is used to prevent the beverage discharged from the outlet 215 from leaking onto the lower (-Z direction) main body 101. Figure 4 The sealing material 216 on the main component side is, for example, a circular annular material disposed along the outer surface of the main component 21.

[0173] It should be noted that each sealing material described in the specific embodiments of the present invention can be configured in any way and can be freely varied in material, shape, size, or quantity, as long as the material is configured to prevent accidental leakage of beverage or gas from the beverage container 100. Furthermore, each sealing material can be formed using rubber or any other material.

[0174] (Configuration - Part 1 - Operating Components)

[0175] Figure 22 This is a perspective view of the operating component as seen from above. Figure 23 This is a perspective view of the operating component as seen from below, and Figure 24 This is a plan view of the operating component.

[0176] Figure 17 to Figure 18 and Figure 22 to Figure 24 The operating member 22 rotates due to user operation, thereby opening or closing the beverage opening 312 and the gas opening 313. Figure 6 The operating member 22 is, for example, a member housed within the main body member 21, and is formed of resin or the like. The operating member 22 includes, for example... Figure 22 One of the knobs 221, and Figure 23 The middle side protrusion 222 and the positioning protrusion 223 are in the middle.

[0177] (Configuration - Part 1 - Operating Components - Knob Section)

[0178] Figure 22 and Figure 24 The knob 221 is the part that the user grips. The external force for rotation is applied to the knob 221 by the user. The knob 221 is, for example, via... Figure 19 The part exposed by the opening 212 of the main component 21 facing the upper side (+Z direction).

[0179] (Configuration - Part 1 - Operating Components - Middle Side Protrusion)

[0180] Figure 23 The middle side protrusion 222 is a portion that protrudes toward the lower side (-Z direction) and has an outer surface provided with, for example, a helical thread 222A. The helical thread 222A is helical so that, when the operating member 22 is rotated, the adjusting member 23 (described later) that is tightened to the middle side protrusion 222 of the operating member 22 can be moved to the upper side (+Z direction) or the lower side (-Z direction).

[0181] (Configuration - Part 1 - Operating Components - Positioning Protrusions)

[0182] Figure 22 to Figure 24 The positioning protrusion 223 is about the main component 21 ( Figure 20 A component used to position the rotational position of the operating member 22. For example, such as... Figure 23 As illustrated, the positioning protrusion 223 is a component that is pushed outward in the horizontal direction toward the operating member 22 by means of a predetermined propulsion unit (e.g., a compression coil spring that generates propulsion force based on compression in the case of compression). The positioning protrusion 223 is configured such that, when the operating member 22 is housed in the main body member 21, a positioning recess 213 is provided facing it. Figure 20 The inner peripheral wall of the main component 21 of the main component.

[0183] When, for example, the operating member 22 is rotated 90 degrees in one direction (clockwise or counterclockwise), the positioning protrusion 223 faces and protrudes from the positioning recess 213, and the end portion of the positioning protrusion 223 is provided in the positioning recess 213. Therefore, the operating member 22 is positioned at the rotated position.

[0184] Furthermore, when the operating member 22 rotates 90 degrees clockwise in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction (the direction opposite to "one direction"), the positioning protrusion 223 faces and protrudes from the positioning recess 213 (which is located next to the positioning recess 213 where the positioning protrusion 223 was provided before rotation), and the end portion of the positioning protrusion 223 is located within the positioning recess 213. Therefore, the operating member 22 is positioned at the rotated positioning point.

[0185] Thus, the operating component 22 is positioned such that it can rotate 90 degrees relative to the main component 21.

[0186] (Configuration - Part 1 - Adjusting Components)

[0187] Figure 25 This is a perspective view of the adjusting component as seen from above.Figure 26 This is a perspective view of the adjusting component as seen from below, and Figure 27 This is a plan view of the adjusting component.

[0188] Figure 17 to Figure 18 and Figure 25 to Figure 27 The adjusting member 23 is a member used to move the movable member 32 up and down by means of vertical movement when the rotating operating member 22 is in operation. The adjusting member 23 is, for example, a member housed in the main body member 21 and formed of resin or the like. The adjusting member 23 includes, for example... Figure 26 The device includes an opening 231, a middle side protrusion 232, and a guide protrusion 233.

[0257] (Lid assembly method)

[0258] Next, a method for assembling the cover 102 will be described. For example, the method for assembling the cover 102 will be described in the section on assembling... Figure 13 The method of the first part 102A and the method for assembly Figure 13 The method in Part 2, 102B, will be explained later.

[0259] (Cover Assembly Method - Part 1)

[0260] First, instructions for assembly will be provided. Figure 13The method is described in the first part 102A. It should be noted that the order of assembly of these components described below is freely changeable (this also applies to the assembly of other components).

[0261] First, adjust component 23 is attached to Figure 17 and Figure 18 Operating component 22 in the middle. For example, Figure 23 The middle side protrusion 222 of the operating member 22 is through Figure 25 The opening 231 of the adjusting member 23 is provided in the middle side protrusion 232. In this case, Figure 23 The helical thread 222A of the operating component 22 is set in Figure 25 The spiral groove 232A of the adjusting member 23 is screwed into the adjusting member 23, and the middle side protrusion 222 of the operating member 22 is tightened into the adjusting member 23.

[0262] Then, the operating component 22 and the adjusting component 23 are used Figure 17 and Figure 18 The guide member 24 is attached to the main body member 21. For example, Figure 25 The guide protrusion 233 of the adjusting member 23 is by means of... Figure 28 An adjustment member 23 is provided in the middle side protrusion 242 of the guide member 24, while the adjustment member 23 is provided in the middle side protrusion 242 of the guide member 24. Figure 28 In the guide recess 242A of the guide member 24. Then, Figure 17 and Figure 18 The fixing screw 901 in the middle is continuously tightened and fixed to Figure 29 The screw hole 243 of the guide member 24, and Figure 17 and Figure 18 The screw hole of the main component 21.

[0263] Then, Figure 17 and Figure 18 The connecting member 25 is attached to the lower end (-Z direction) of the main member 21. This attachment can be made by any method. For example, the attachment can be made using a joint structure, wherein each member is provided with a joint structure that allows these members to be detachably attached to each other. In summary, Figure 14 to Figure 16 The assembly of the first part 102A of the cover 102 is complete.

[0264] (Lid Assembly Method - Part Two)

[0265] Then, instructions for assembly will be provided. Figure 13 The method is described in the second part 102B of the document.

[0266] first, Figure 35 and Figure 36The movable component 32 is disposed on the partition component 31. For example, Figure 39 The middle side protrusion 322 of the moving member 32 is through Figure 38 The middle side opening 311 of the partition member 31 is provided.

[0267] Then, Figure 35 and Figure 36 The propulsion component 33 is provided. For example, in Figure 35 The spring in the middle of the propulsion component 33 is from via Figure 38 The middle side opening 311 protrudes into the upper side (+Z direction) of the moving member 32, which is located around the middle side protrusion 322. It should be noted that in this case, the lower end (-Z direction) of the pushing member 33 is placed around the middle side opening 311 in the separating member 31.

[0268] Then, Figure 35 and Figure 36 The attachment member 34 is attached. For example, when the push member 33 is compressed around the middle side protrusion 322 of the moving member 32, the upper side (+Z direction) of the middle side protrusion 322 of the moving member 32 is inserted through the opening 341 of the attachment member 34 to rotate the attachment member 34, and as a result, the fixing member 323 of the moving member 32 is provided in the fixing recess 342 of the attachment member 34. It should be noted that in this case, such as Figure 32 and Figure 34 As illustrated, the spring, i.e., the actuating member 33, is disposed in a compressed state between the separating member 31 and the attaching member 34. In summary, Figure 32 to Figure 34 The assembly of the second part 102B of the cover 102 is complete.

[0269] (Lid assembly method - lid)

[0270] Then, the second part 102B is attached to Figure 13 The first part 102A. This attachment can be made by any method. For example, the attachment can be made using a joint structure, wherein each part is provided with a joint structure that allows these parts to be attached to each other in a detachable manner. In summary, the attachment is complete. Figure 7 to Figure 12 The assembly of the cover 102 in the middle.

[0271] (operate)

[0272] Next, the operation of the cover 102 will be described. For example, the operation of the cover 102 will be described after the operation of the first part 102A and the operation of the second part 102B.

[0273] (Operation - Part 1)

[0274] First, the operation of the first portion 102A in the first portion 102A will be explained. Figure 14 to Figure 16

[0275] For example, in the case where the operation member 22 in the first portion 102A is rotated 90 degrees in one direction, the middle side protrusion 222 of the operation member 22 is also rotated 90 degrees in one direction. In this case, since the guide protrusion 233 in the first portion 102A is disposed in the guide recess 242A of the guide member 24 in the first portion 102A, the adjustment member 23 screwed to the middle side protrusion 222 moves to, for example, the lower side (-Z direction) and protrudes based on the above rotation. Figure 14 Figure 25 Figure 28

[0276] Thereafter, in the case where the operation member 22 in the first portion 102A is rotated 90 degrees in the other direction, backward, the middle side protrusion 222 of the operation member 22 is also rotated 90 degrees in the other direction. In this case, since the guide protrusion 233 in the first portion 102A is disposed in the guide recess 242A of the guide member 24 in the first portion 102A, the adjustment member 23 screwed to the middle side protrusion 222 moves to, for example, the upper side (+Z direction) and retracts based on the above rotation. Figure 14 Figure 25 Figure 28

[0277] (Operation - Second Portion)

[0278] Then, the operation of the second portion 102B in the first portion 102A will be explained. Figure 32 to Figure 34

[0279] For example, in the case where no external force is applied to the second portion 102B, the attachment member 34 is moved toward the upper side (+Z direction) with respect to the partition member 31 by the pushing force of the pushing member 33 in the second portion 102B. In this case, since the fixing piece 323 of the moving member 32 is disposed on the upper surface of the attachment member 34 (specifically, the fixing recess 342( Figure 34 Figure 35 Figure 41

[0280] ​​​​​​​​​​​Furthermore, when the middle side protrusion 322 of the moving member 32 is pushed toward the lower side (-Z direction), for example, the moving member 32 abuts against... Figure 34 The propulsive force of the propulsion member 33 moves to the lower side. In this case, the sealing material 324 on the beverage opening / closing side of the moving member 32 ( Figure 41 The sealing material 325 on the gas opening and closing side is separated from the separating member 31, and therefore the obstruction between the beverage opening 312 and the gas opening 313 is released. In other words, the beverage opening 312 and the gas opening 313 are simultaneously unobstructed and opened.

[0281] It should be noted that, due to the main body 321 of the moving member 32 in Figure 38 The two guide portions 315 in the partition member 31 can move up and down, thus preventing the moving member 32 from deviating in the lateral direction (the direction in which the guide portions 315 are provided) during movement, and thus each opening can be properly opened and closed.

[0282] (Operation - Cover)

[0283] Then, the explanation Figure 7 to Figure 12 This operation of the cover 102 in the middle. Figure 42 and Figure 43 This is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the beverage container. It should be noted that... Figure 42 and Figure 43 Is with Figure 5 and Figure 6 Similar cross-sectional views.

[0284] For example, in the case of Figure 7 When the operating member 22 is rotated 90 degrees in one direction, the adjusting member 23 moves toward the lower side (-Z direction) as described above. In this case, as... Figure 43 As indicated by arrow A2, the moving member 32 is moved to the lower side (-Z direction) by the pushing of the adjusting member 23, and the sealing material 324 on the beverage opening side and the sealing material 325 on the gas opening side are separated from the separating member 31, so that the beverage opening 312 and the gas opening 313 are unblocked and opened.

[0285] It should be noted that the sealing materials 324 on the beverage opening side and 325 on the gas opening side are separated from the partition member 31 and their respective openings are open (e.g., Figure 43 The position in the middle can be interpreted as corresponding to the "second position on the beverage opening and closing member side" and the "second position on the gas opening and closing member side".

[0286] Subsequently, in Figure 7In the case where the operation member 22 in the other direction is rotated 90 degrees, for example, the adjustment member 23 is moved toward the upper side (+Z direction) as described above. In this case, as indicated by the arrow A1 in Figure 42 The moving member 32 is moved to the upper side (-Z direction) by the pushing force of the pushing member 33, and the beverage opening portion side sealing material 324 and the gas opening portion side sealing material 325 are pushed against the partition member 31, and thus the beverage opening portion 312 and the gas opening portion 313 are blocked and closed, as indicated by the arrow A1 in

[0287] Note that the positions of the beverage opening portion side sealing material 324 and the gas opening portion side sealing material 325, which push against the partition member 31 and close these respective opening portions, (for example, the positions in Figure 42 In the case where the operation member 22 in the other direction is rotated 90 degrees, for example, the adjustment member 23 is moved toward the upper side (+Z direction) as described above. In this case, as indicated by the arrow A1 in

[0288] (Usage method)

[0289] Then, how to use the beverage container 100 will be described.

[0290] First, as exemplified in Figure 4 The lid 102 is removed from the main body 101, and a beverage is put in and contained in the hollow portion 11 of the main body 101 through the main body side opening portion 14. Then, the lid 102 is attached to the main body 101.

[0291] Then, as exemplified in Figure 42 The operation member 22 is rotated 90 degrees in the other direction to block and close the beverage opening portion 312 and the gas opening portion 313.

[0292] In this case, since the beverage opening portion 312 and the gas opening portion 313 are closed and maintained watertight and airtight, even when the beverage container 100 is tilted, the beverage contained in the hollow portion 11 is not discharged. Further, although the beverage is carbonated and the pressure in the hollow portion 11 increases due to the beverage being a carbonated beverage, in the case where the pressure exceeds a predetermined pressure, the pressure is reduced through the pressure reducing valve 314, and thus the pressure in the hollow portion 11 can be maintained at approximately the predetermined pressure. Further, since the beverage opening portion side sealing material 324 and the gas opening portion side sealing material 325 close these respective opening portions from the lower side of the partition member 31, the closed state of these opening portions can be surely maintained even when the pressure in the hollow portion 11 increases.

[0293] Then, as exemplified in Figure 43 The operation member 22 is rotated 90 degrees in the other direction to block and close the beverage opening portion 312 and the gas opening portion 313.

[0294] In this case, the hollow portion 11 of the main body portion 101 is open to the discharge port 215 via the beverage opening portion 312 and the flow path portion 214, and thus the beverage accommodated in the hollow portion 11 can be discharged from the beverage container 100 via the beverage opening portion 312, the flow path portion 214, and the discharge port 215 in the case where the beverage container 100 is tilted. Figure 1 It should be noted that in this case, since the gas opening portion 313 is open, the outside air is injected into the hollow portion 11 via the gas opening portion 313 and the inside space 21A of the lid body 102 (in which the air tightness is not maintained), and the beverage can be surely discharged from the beverage opening portion 312 side. Figure 43 It should be noted that with respect to the inside space 21A, the outside air is injected therein via the gap between the components in which the air tightness is not maintained (for example, the gap between the main body member 21 and the operation member 22 or the adjustment member 23).

[0295] As described above, the beverage can be accommodated and retained in the beverage container 100, and the beverage can be discharged from the beverage container 100.

[0296] (EFFECTS OF THE SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS)

[0297] As described above, according to the specific embodiments of the present application, by providing the beverage opening and closing portion side sealing material 324 for opening and closing the beverage opening portion 312 from the lower side of the beverage opening portion 312, it is possible to make the beverage dischargeable or non-dischargeable in accordance with the intention of the user, for example.

[0298] Further, by providing the gas opening and closing portion side sealing material 325 for opening and closing the gas opening portion 313 from the lower side of the gas opening portion 313, it is possible to prevent the beverage from being discharged via the gas opening portion 313, for example.

[0299] Further, by moving the beverage opening and closing portion side sealing material 324 to the beverage opening and closing member side first position and moving the gas opening and closing portion side sealing material 325 to the gas opening and closing member side first position, or moving the beverage opening and closing portion side sealing material 324 to the beverage opening and closing member side second position and moving the gas opening and closing portion side sealing material 325 to the gas opening and closing member side second position, the outside air can be injected therein when the beverage is discharged, for example, and thus the beverage can be smoothly discharged. Further, for example, both of the opening portions can be closed, and thus the discharge of the beverage can be surely prevented.

[0300] Further, by providing the pressure reducing valve 314, it is possible to prevent the pressure in the main body portion 101 from continuously rising, for example, and thus safety can be maintained.

[0301] Further, since the beverage is an aerated beverage, the aerated beverage can be made dischargeable or non-dischargeable, for example, in accordance with the user's intention. In particular, in the case where the pressure in the main body portion 101 rises due to the beverage being carbonated, for example, the beverage opening portion side sealing material 324 can be prevented from opening the beverage opening portion 312 against the user's intention based on the pressure deviation, so the beverage can be surely made dischargeable or non-dischargeable in accordance with the user's intention.
