[0022] The sliding member 34 is mounted on the locking member 33 so as to be slidable vertically. By sliding vertically relative to the locking member 33, the sliding member 34 can move between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the locking member 33 restricts its rotation. In the unlocked position, the locking member 33 releases its rotation.

[0023] The slide member 34 includes an operating section 60, a first slide section 61, a second slide section 62, and a regulating section 63. The operating section 60 is the part operated by the user's fingers. The first slide section 61 and the second slide section 62 each protrude rearward from the back surface of the operating section 60. The first slide section 61 and the second slide section 62 are spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction.

[0024] The first slide portion 61 is positioned through the first groove 41. The second slide portion 62 is positioned through the second groove 42. A pivot shaft 35 passes through the first guide hole 66 and the second guide hole 67. The slide member 34, together with the locking member 33, is supported by the plug body 10 via the pivot shaft 35. The slide member 34 is rotatable integrally with the locking member 33 around the pivot shaft 35. The pivot shaft 35 is movable relative to the slide member 34 along the guide holes 66 and 67. As a result, the slide member 34 is slidable up and down relative to the locking member 33.

[0025] As shown in Figure 9, the lock spring 36 is attached to the pivot shaft 35. The lock spring 36 contacts the lock member 33 and the lock holding portion 45. The pivot shaft 35 passes through the lock spring 36. The lock spring 36 biases the lock member 33 toward the locked position.

[0026] The restricting portion 63 is located at the lower end of the back of the operating portion 60. The restricting portion 63 protrudes rearward from the back of the operating portion 60. When the sliding member 34 is in the locked position, as shown in Figure 9, the restricting portion 63 is positioned within the notch 43 of the locking member 33.

[0027] As shown in Figure 8, the locking retainer 45 includes a first groove 72 and a second groove 73. The first groove 72 is located between the central recess 54 and the first side recess 55. The second groove 73 is located between the central recess 54 and the second side recess 56. The first groove 72 extends vertically along the first sliding portion 61. The second groove 73 extends vertically along the second sliding portion 62. Figure 11 is a cross-sectional view of the plug unit 3 in Figure 6 along line XI-XI. As shown in Figure 11, the first sliding portion 61 is located within the first groove 72. The second sliding portion 62 is located within the second groove 73.

[0028] As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the locking retaining portion 45 includes a stopper 71. The stopper 71 protrudes forward from the front surface of the plug body 10. The stopper 71 is positioned below the central recess 54. As shown in Figure 7, when the sliding member 34 is in the locked position, the restricting portion 63 of the sliding member 34 contacts the stopper 71, thereby restricting the rotation of the locking member 33.

[0029] Next, the mounting structure between the stopper body 10 and the lid member 11 will be described. Figure 12 is a perspective view showing a beverage container 1 with the lid member 11 in the open position. Figure 13 is a top view of the beverage container 1 with the lid member 11 in the open position. Figure 14 is a top view of the beverage container 1 with the lid member 11 omitted. Figure 15 is a side view of the beverage container 1 with the lid member 11 omitted. As shown in Figures 12 to 15, the stopper body 10 includes a hinge portion 21. The hinge portion 21 is located on the upper surface of the stopper body 10.

[0030] The upper surface of the stopper body 10 includes a first upper surface 48 and a second upper surface 49. The first upper surface 48 has a flat shape. The first upper surface 48 is arranged to surround the periphery of the second upper surface 49. The hinge portion protrudes upward from the first upper surface 48. The second upper surface 49 protrudes upward from the first upper surface 48. The second upper surface 49 has a flat shape. The second upper surface 49 includes the hole 17 described above. A stepped portion 50 is provided between the second upper surface 49 and the first upper surface 48. The hinge portion 21 is located behind the second upper surface 49.

[0031] The hinge portion 21 includes a front surface 68, a connecting portion 69, and a curved surface 70. As shown in Figure 15, the front surface 68 extends diagonally upward and rearward from the upper surface of the plug body 10 in a side view of the plug unit 3. As shown in Figure 12, a recess 74 is provided in the front surface 68. The connecting portion 69 is located at the bottom of the hinge portion 21. The connecting portion 69 is connected to the first upper surface 48. On the first upper surface 48, the connecting portion 69 extends rearward from the stepped portion 50. The curved surface 70 extends from the upper part of the front surface 68, through the rear of the hinge portion 21, to the connecting portion 69. The curved surface 70 has a shape that curves convexly toward the rear. The curved surface 70 includes a projection 77. The projection 77 protrudes rearward from the curved surface 70. As shown in Figure 3, the hinge portion 21 includes an axial hole 22A. The shaft hole 22A extends in the left-right direction through the hinge portion 21.

[0032] As shown in Figure 12, the rear of the lid member 11 includes a first support portion 78, a second support portion 79, and a support recess 80. The first support portion 78 and the second support portion 79 are spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction. The support recess 80 is located between the first support portion 78 and the second support portion 79. The support recess 80 has a shape that is recessed rearward from the first support portion 78 and the second support portion 79. The first support portion 78 includes a shaft hole 22B. The shaft hole 22B extends in the left-right direction in the first support portion 78. The second support portion 79 includes a shaft hole 22C. The shaft hole 22C extends in the left-right direction in the second support portion 79. A hinge shaft 23 passes through the shaft holes 22A, 22B, and 22C. The hinge shaft 23 rotatably supports the lid member 11. The lid member 11 is supported via the hinge shaft 23 so as to be rotatable around the hinge shaft 23.

[0033] As shown in Figure 13, the plug unit 3 includes a first hinge spring 24A and a second hinge spring 24B. The first hinge spring 24A and the second hinge spring 24B are attached to the hinge shaft 23 and are in contact with the lid member 11 and the plug body 10. The first hinge spring 24A is positioned between the first support portion 78 and the hinge portion 21. The second hinge spring 24B is positioned between the second support portion 79 and the hinge portion 21. The hinge shaft 23 passes through the first hinge spring 24A and the second hinge spring 24B. The first hinge spring 24A and the second hinge spring 24B bias the lid member 11 in the direction that opens the lid member 11.

[0034] The lid member 11 includes a cylindrical portion 85 and a canopy portion 86. The cylindrical portion 85 has a cylindrical shape. The cylindrical portion 85 includes the female thread 15 described above and is attached to the container body 2. The canopy portion 86 is located below the hinge portion 21. The canopy portion 86 protrudes rearward from the cylindrical portion 85. The canopy portion 86 protrudes rearward from the connecting portion 69. The canopy portion 86 protrudes rearward from the hinge shaft 23. At least a portion of the hinge shaft 23 is located rearward from the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion 85. The canopy portion 86 protrudes rearward from the hinge portion 21.

[0035] As shown in Figure 15, the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86 is flush with the first upper surface 48. As shown in Figure 15, the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86 is inclined diagonally downward and rearward. In a side view of the plug unit 3, the plug body 10 has a shape that is recessed forward between the curved surface 70 of the hinge shaft 23 and the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86. The lower surface of the eaves portion 86 is connected to the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion 85. The lower surface of the eaves portion 86 includes a rounded shape.

[0036] As shown in Figure 14, in a top view of the stopper unit 3, the visor portion 86 has a shape that tapers towards the rear. The visor portion 86 is larger than the hinge portion 21 in the left-right direction of the stopper unit 3. That is, in a top view of the stopper unit 3, the width W1 of the visor portion 86 in the left-right direction is larger than the width W2 of the hinge portion 21 in the left-right direction. In a top view of the stopper unit 3, the width W1 of the visor portion 86 in the left-right direction is larger than the width W3 of the drinking spout 18 in the left-right direction.

[0037] Next, the operation of the locking mechanism 14 will be described. When the lid member 11 is closed, as shown in Figure 7, the locking member 33 is in the locked position and the sliding member 34 is in the locked position. When the locking member 33 is in the locked position, the locking portion 38 is locked to the locked portion 57. When the sliding member 34 is in the locked position, the restricting portion 63 is positioned facing the stopper 71. When the sliding member 34 is in the locked position, even if an attempt is made to rotate the locking member 33 and the sliding member 34, the restricting portion 63 will come into contact with the stopper 71. Therefore, the sliding member 34 and the locking member 33 cannot rotate around the pivot axis 35. The locked position is the uppermost position within the sliding range of the sliding member 34.

[0038] When a user opens the lid member 11, they first push down the slide member 34, sliding it downward relative to the lock member 33, thereby moving the slide member 34 from the locked position to the unlocked position. As shown in Figure 16, the unlocked position is located below the locked position. When the slide member 34 is in the unlocked position, the regulating part 63 is separated downward from the stopper 71. Therefore, as shown in Figure 17, the slide member 34 and the lock member 33 become rotatable around the pivot axis 35.

[0039] The user can rotate the slide member 34 and the locking member 33 around the pivot axis 35 by pressing the slide member 34 with their finger. As the slide member 34 and the locking member 33 rotate around the pivot axis 35, the locking member 33 moves from the locked position to the unlocked position. This releases the locking portion 38 from the locked portion 57, and the locking member 33 opens the lid member 11. The opened lid member 11 rotates in the direction of opening the drinking spout 18 due to the elastic force of the hinge spring 24. As a result, the lid member 11 is in the open state shown in Figure 5.

[0040] Furthermore, when the lid member 11 rotates to open the drinking spout 18, the support recess 80 of the lid member 11 contacts the projection 77, causing the lid member 11 to stop or slow down. Also, as shown in Figure 19, when the lid member 11 rotates to open the drinking spout 18, the rotation of the lid member 11 is restricted when the lid member 11 contacts the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86. That is, when the lid member 11 is in the closed position, the inclined surface 83 contacts the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86.

[0041] When the user releases pressure on the slide member 34, the lock member 33 and the slide member 34 rotate in the opposite direction due to the elastic force of the lock spring 36. As a result, as shown in Figure 18, the lid member 11 is in the open position and the lock member 33 returns to the locked position. The slide member 34 is in the unlocked position. Therefore, the slide member 34 and the lock member 33 are rotatable around the pivot axis 35.

[0042] When the user closes the lid member 11, the locked portion 57 rides up onto the locked portion 38 against the elastic force of the lock spring 36. This causes the lock member 33 to rotate toward the locked position. As the locked portion 57 overcomes the locked portion 38, the lock member 33 returns to the locked position due to the elastic force of the lock spring 36. As a result, the locked portion 38 engages with the locked portion 57, similar to the state shown in Figure 16, and the lid member 11 becomes closed.

[0043] The user pushes up the slide member 34, sliding it upward relative to the lock member 33, thereby moving the slide member 34 from the unlocked position to the locked position, similar to the state shown in Figure 7. This restricts the rotation of the lock member 33.

[0044] In the stopper unit 3 for the beverage container 1 described above, the visor portion 86 is positioned below the hinge portion 21. Therefore, as shown in Figure 19, the user can easily and securely grip the stopper unit 3 by placing their fingers on the visor portion 86.

[0045] The presence of the visor portion 86 allows the hinge portion 21 to be positioned far behind the drinking spout 18. Therefore, when the lid member 11 is closed, it can be positioned far behind the drinking spout 18. As a result, as shown in Figure 20, when the user puts their mouth to the drinking spout 18, the hinge portion 21, the lid member 11, or the first packing 26 are less likely to come into contact with the user's nose. In addition, the handle 82 is positioned far behind the visor portion 86. This prevents interference between the user's fingers and the handle 82.

[0046] As shown in Figure 19, when the lid member 11 is in the open position, the inclined surface 83 is inclined diagonally downward and rearward. Also, the upper surface 87 of the eaves portion 86 is inclined diagonally downward and rearward. Therefore, a large opening angle for the lid member 11 can be secured.

[0047] Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the invention.
