[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 to 8 are diagrams showing an embodiment. Each of the diagrams shown below is a schematic diagram. Therefore, the size and shape of each part are exaggerated as appropriate for easy understanding. Also, it can be implemented with appropriate changes without departing from the technical idea. In each of the diagrams shown below, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals, and some detailed explanations may be omitted. Also, the numerical values such as the dimensions of each member described in this specification and the material names are examples as an embodiment, and are not limited thereto, and can be appropriately selected and used. In this specification, terms specifying shapes and geometric conditions, such as terms like parallel, orthogonal, perpendicular, etc., shall be interpreted to include not only the strictly meant state but also substantially the same state. In this specification, "upper", "lower", and "horizontal direction" refer to the upper, lower, and horizontal directions, respectively, in the state where the capped container 1 or the cap 20 is upright (FIGS. 1 and 2).

[0014] Container with cap First, with reference to FIG. 1, an overview of the capped container according to an embodiment will be described.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, the capped container 1 according to the present embodiment includes a container body 2 and a cap 20 attached to the container body 2.

[0016] Container body The container body 2 has a pouch 3 and a spout 10 attached to the pouch 3.

[0017] Among these, the pouch 3 is a standing-type pouch having a body portion 4a and a bottom portion 4b. The body portion 4a includes a pair of main surface sheets 5a, 5b arranged to face each other, and the side edges 6 and the upper edge 7 in the vicinity of the overlapped pair of main surface sheets 5a, 5b are heat-sealed to each other.

[0018] Furthermore, a bottom sheet 9, which forms the bottom 4b, is positioned between the lower edges 8 of the pair of main sheets 5a and 5b. Within the space enclosed by the pair of main sheets 5a and 5b and the bottom sheet 9, a storage space 2a for containing contents is partitioned.

[0019] The bottom sheet 9 is bent so as to be convex toward the containment space 2a, and its peripheral edge is heat-sealed together with the lower parts of the overlapping main sheets 5a and 5b. The bottom sheet 9 maintains the shape of the lower edges 8 of the pair of main sheets 5a and 5b, thereby giving the pouch 3 self-supporting ability.

[0020] Furthermore, a spout 10 is attached to the center of the top of pouch 3. The spout 10 is positioned between a pair of overlapping main surface sheets 5a and 5b. In this way, the top of pouch 3 is closed by the pair of main surface sheets 5a and 5b and the spout 10.

[0021] Although Figure 1 shows an example where pouch 3 is a standing type pouch, it is not limited to this, and pouch 3 may also be a flat bag such as a gusset bag, a three-sided bag, or a four-sided bag.

[0022] As the main surface sheets 5a, 5b and bottom surface sheet 9 used in pouch 3, a laminate having the following layer configuration can be used. PET / DL / AL / DL / ON / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) PET / DL / ON / DL / AL / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) Vapor-deposited PET / DL / ON / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) PET / DL / Vaporized ON / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) Vapor-deposited PET / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) Coated PET / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) Evaporation ON / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) PET / DL / Vaporized PET / DL / ON / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) PBT / DL / AL / DL / CPP or LLDPE (contents side) Note that "PET" stands for polyethylene terephthalate, "AL" for aluminum foil, "DL" for adhesive layer made by dry lamination, "ON" for nylon, "CPP" for unstretched polypropylene film, "LLDPE" for linear low-density polyethylene, "deposited PET" for PET coated with silicon dioxide or aluminum oxide, "deposited ON" for ON coated with silicon dioxide or aluminum oxide, "coated PET" for PET coated with a barrier substrate such as PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) or PVDC (polyvinylidene chloride), and "PBT" for polybutylene terephthalate.

[0023] Next, the spout 10 will be described. The spout 10 has a cylindrical portion 11 which is hollow and has male threads 14 formed on its outer surface, a flange portion 12 provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion 11, and a welded portion 13 provided below the flange portion 12 to which a pair of main surface sheets 5a and 5b of the pouch 3 are welded. These cylindrical portion 11, flange portion 12, and welded portion 13 are integrally molded from a synthetic resin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE). The spout 10 may also be manufactured by injection molding using a thermoplastic resin, for example. The resin used to mold the spout 10 may be a blend of the various resins mentioned above, or a resin containing biomass-derived components may be used.

[0024] The spout 10 has a through-hole 15 that is roughly circular in shape when viewed from above. This through-hole 15 extends vertically along the axial direction of the spout 10. The through-hole 15 communicates with the inside of the pouch 3, and the contents contained in the pouch 3 are dispensed to the outside through this through-hole 15.

[0025] The outer surface of the cylindrical portion 11 is provided with a male thread 14 that engages with a female thread 26 (see Figure 4, etc.) provided on the inner circumferential surface of the cap 20, which will be described later. This male thread 14 may consist of a single-start thread or a multi-start thread.

[0026] A circumferential protrusion 16 is formed between the male screw 14 and the flange portion 12. The band portion 30 of the cap 20, which will be described later, is housed between this circumferential protrusion 16 and the flange portion 12.

[0027] Furthermore, multiple ratchet parts 19 protrude radially outward between the circumferential protrusion 16 and the flange part 12. When opening the capped container 1, the protruding part 32 of the band part 30 (see Figure 3, etc.) comes into contact with the ratchet part 19, which will be described later, and prevents the band part 30 from rotating. In the illustrated example, two ratchet parts 19 are provided. Note that one or more ratchet parts 19 may be provided.

[0028] The flange portion 12 is provided at the lower part of the cylindrical portion 11. This flange portion 12 extends radially outward from the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 11.

[0029] cap Next, the cap 20 will be described with reference to Figures 2 to 7. The cap 20 is attached to the container body 2 to seal the contents inside the capped container 1. The cap 20 is detachable from the container body 2.

[0030] As shown in Figures 2 to 4, the cap 20 comprises a top portion 21, an inner cylinder portion 22, an outer cylinder portion 23, a band portion 30, and a plurality of ribs 40. These top portion 21, inner cylinder portion 22, outer cylinder portion 23, band portion 30, and ribs 40 are integrally molded from a synthetic resin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE). The cap 20 may also be manufactured by injection molding using a thermoplastic resin, for example. The resin used to mold the cap 20 may be a blend of the various resins mentioned above, or a resin containing biomass-derived components may be used.

[0031] The top portion 21 has a substantially circular shape in plan view. As shown in Figure 4, a cylindrical inner ring 24 is formed on the lower surface of the top portion 21, radially inward of the inner cylindrical portion 22. This inner ring 24 is configured to contact the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 11 of the spout 10. Furthermore, an annular contact ring 25 is formed on the lower surface of the top portion 21, radially outward of the inner ring 24. This contact ring 25 is configured to contact the upper surface of the cylindrical portion 11 of the spout 10. In this way, the inner ring 24 and the contact ring 25 enhance the airtightness of the capped container 1.

[0032] As shown in Figure 4, the inner cylinder portion 22 extends from the top portion 21. That is, the inner cylinder portion 22 hangs down from the top portion 21. This inner cylinder portion 22 has a small diameter portion 22a, an enlarged diameter portion 22b provided below the small diameter portion 22a, and a large diameter portion 22c provided below the enlarged diameter portion 22b. The small diameter portion 22a and the large diameter portion 22c each have a substantially cylindrical shape. The outer diameter of the large diameter portion 22c is larger than the outer diameter of the small diameter portion 22a. The enlarged diameter portion 22b has a shape in which the outer diameter gradually increases as it goes downwards. An internal thread 26 is formed on the inner surface of this inner cylinder portion 22, which is screwed onto the male thread 14 of the spout 10. This internal thread 26 may consist of a single thread or a multi-thread thread.

[0033] As shown in Figures 2 to 6, the outer cylinder portion 23 is located radially outward of the inner cylinder portion 22. This outer cylinder portion 23 has a shoulder portion 23a, a first cylinder portion 23b provided below the shoulder portion 23a, and a second cylinder portion 23c provided below the first cylinder portion 23b. The shoulder portion 23a has a shape in which the outer diameter gradually increases as it extends downward. The first cylinder portion 23b and the second cylinder portion 23c each have a substantially octagonal cylindrical shape. The first cylinder portion 23b and the second cylinder portion 23c have a shape in which the width (radial distance) gradually increases as they extend downward. Multiple knurling 27 are formed on the outer surface of this outer cylinder portion 23, which functions as an anti-slip surface when the cap 20 is held in the hand. Each knurling 27 protrudes radially outward from the outer cylinder portion 23 and extends parallel to the vertical direction of the outer cylinder portion 23 (the axial direction of the spout 10).

[0034] The band portion 30 is provided between the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23. The band portion 30 consists of a ring-shaped pilfer band, and is a type of pilfer band in which a part of the circumferential direction breaks when the cap is opened.

[0035] The band portion 30 is connected to the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23 via the rib 40. The band portion 30 is not directly connected to either the inner cylinder portion 22 or the outer cylinder portion 23. A gap is formed between the band portion 30 and the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23 in the radial direction. Further details of the band portion 30 will be described later.

[0036] Each rib 40 connects the inner cylinder portion 22, the band portion 30, and the outer cylinder portion 23 to each other. Each rib 40 extends radially and is provided between the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23. The ribs 40 are formed in a plate shape. In this embodiment, the ribs 40 extend from the outer surface of the inner cylinder portion 22 to the inner surface of the outer cylinder portion 23. In the illustrated example, four ribs 40 are provided. Each rib 40 is arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The number of ribs 40 may be two, three, or five or more.

[0037] Next, the details of the band section 30 will be described with reference to Figures 5 to 7.

[0038] As shown in Figures 5 to 7, the band portion 30 has a cut portion 31 that is thinner than the surrounding portion, a protruding portion 32 that protrudes radially inward, and a deformed portion 33 that is thinner than the surrounding portion.

[0039] Of these, the cut portion 31 is thinned from below, making it easily breakable. By checking whether the cut portion 31 has broken, it is possible to determine whether the cap 20 has been improperly opened. The thickness T1 (vertical distance, see Figure 2) of the cut portion 31 may be, for example, 0.2 mm or more and 0.5 mm or less. A thickness T1 of 0.2 mm or more of the cut portion 31 improves the moldability of the band portion 30. Also, a thickness T1 of 0.2 mm or more prevents the cut portion 31 from being cut unintentionally. A thickness T1 of 0.5 mm or less of the cut portion 31 makes it easier to cut.

[0040] In the illustrated example, four cutting sections 31 are provided. Each cutting section 31 is arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The number of cutting sections 31 may be two, three, or five or more.

[0041] The protruding portion 32 is a part that contacts the ratchet portion 19 of the spout 10 when the capped container 1 is initially opened, thereby suppressing the rotation of the band portion 30. In this way, the protruding portion 32 that protrudes radially inward from the band portion 30 can be used to reliably break the cutting portion 31. In the illustrated example, four protruding portions 32 are provided. Each of the protruding portions 32 is arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The number of protruding portions 32 may be two, three, or five or more.

[0042] The deformable portion 33 is the part that deforms to change the shape of the band portion 30. The thickness T2 (vertical distance, see Figure 2) of the deformable portion 33 may be thicker than the thickness T1 of the cutting portion 31. This allows the aforementioned cutting portion 31 to be cut without cutting the deformable portion 33.

[0043] The thickness T2 of the deformable portion 33 (vertical distance, see Figure 2) may be, for example, 0.4 mm or more and 0.8 mm or less. A thickness T2 of 0.4 mm or more effectively prevents the deformable portion 33 from being cut. A thickness T2 of 0.8 mm or less makes it easier to deform the deformable portion 33.

[0044] In the illustrated example, four deformation sections 33 are provided. Each deformation section 33 is arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The number of deformation sections 33 may be two, three, or five or more.

[0045] Here, the deformable portion 33, the protruding portion 32, and the cutting portion 31 are arranged in this order between the ribs 40, along the opening direction d of the cap 20 (clockwise direction in Figure 6, counterclockwise direction in Figure 7). This allows the rotational force applied to the band portion 30 when the cap 20 is rotated to be effectively applied to the cutting portion 31 rather than the deformable portion 33. As a result, the cutting portion 31 can be easily cut, and the cutting of the deformable portion 33 can be suppressed.

[0046] Between the ribs 40, the length L1 along the opening direction from the protruding portion 32 to the cutting portion 31 may be shorter than the length L2 along the opening direction d from the deformed portion 33 to the protruding portion 32. This allows the rotational force applied to the band portion 30 when the cap 20 is rotated to act more effectively on the cutting portion 31. It also allows for a greater amount of deformation of the band portion 30 after the cutting portion 31 has been cut.

[0047] Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. Here, the method for opening the capped container 1 will be explained with reference to Figures 8(a)-(c).

[0048] First, prepare the cap 20. The cap 20 is manufactured by injection molding using, for example, an injection molding machine (not shown). In parallel with preparing the cap 20, prepare the container body 2.

[0049] Next, as shown in Figure 8(a), the cap 20 is attached to the container body 2. In this way, a container with a cap 1 is obtained.

[0050] When a user uses the capped container 1, the user rotates the cap 20 in the opening direction d (counterclockwise in Figure 8(a)). At this time, the protruding portion 32 of the band portion 30 of the cap 20 comes into contact with the ratchet portion 19 of the spout 10. This suppresses the rotation of the band portion 30. On the other hand, the band portion 30 is connected to the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23 of the cap 20 via the rib 40. Therefore, when the cap 20 is rotated in the opening direction d, the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23 apply rotational force to the band portion 30. As the inner cylinder portion 22 and the outer cylinder portion 23 rotate relative to the band portion 30, the cutting portion 31 is threaded off. As a result, the cutting portion 31 is cut, as shown in Figures 8(b)-(c). Furthermore, as the deformed portion 33 deforms, the band portion 30 expands radially outward compared to before the cut portion 31 was cut (see Figure 8(b)). Also, as the deformed portion 33 deforms, the band portion 30 hangs down from the deformed portion 33 (see Figure 8(c)). Therefore, the user can easily determine that the capped container 1 has been opened.

[0051] As described above, according to this embodiment, the cap 20 comprises a top portion 21, an inner cylindrical portion 22 extending from the top portion 21, an outer cylindrical portion 23 located radially outside the inner cylindrical portion 22, a band portion 30 provided between the inner cylindrical portion 22 and the outer cylindrical portion 23, and a plurality of ribs 40 connecting the inner cylindrical portion 22, the band portion 30, and the outer cylindrical portion 23 to each other. In this way, by having an inner cylindrical portion 22 and an outer cylindrical portion 23 in the cap 20, the outer diameter of the cap 20 can be increased. This makes it easier for the user to grasp the cap 20. Therefore, the container 1 with the cap can be easily opened.

[0052] Furthermore, the band portion 30 has a cut portion 31 that is thinner than the surrounding portion, a protruding portion 32 that protrudes radially inward, and a deformed portion 33 that is thinner than the surrounding portion. In addition, the deformed portion 33, the protruding portion 32, and the cut portion 31 are arranged in this order between the ribs 40 along the opening direction of the cap 20. As a result, when the cap 20 is rotated, the rotational force applied to the band portion 30 can be effectively applied to the cut portion 31 rather than the deformed portion 33. Therefore, the cut portion 31 can be easily cut. As a result, the user can determine that the capped container 1 has been opened. Therefore, tampering with the contents can be prevented.

[0053] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the length L1 along the opening direction from the protruding portion 32 to the cutting portion 31 between the ribs 40 is shorter than the length L2 along the opening direction from the deformed portion 33 to the protruding portion 32. This allows the rotational force applied to the band portion 30 when the cap 20 is rotated to act more effectively on the cutting portion 31. As a result, when the cap 20 is rotated, the cutting portion 31 can be easily cut, and the cutting of the deformed portion 33 can be suppressed. In addition, because the length L1 is shorter than the length L2, the amount of deformation of the band portion 30 after the cutting portion 31 has been cut can be increased.

[0054] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the band portion 30 is not directly connected to either the inner cylinder portion 22 or the outer cylinder portion 23. This allows for an even greater deformation of the band portion 30 after the cut portion 31 is cut. That is, because the band portion 30 is not directly connected to either the inner cylinder portion 22 or the outer cylinder portion 23, after the cut portion 31 is cut, the portion between the ribs 40 from the deformed portion 33 to the cut portion 31 is not directly connected to either the inner cylinder portion 22 or the outer cylinder portion 23. As a result, the portion between the ribs 40 from the deformed portion 33 to the cut portion 31 expands significantly radially outward from the deformed portion 33 and deforms to hang down significantly from the deformed portion 33. As a result, the user can more easily determine that the capped container 1 has been opened.

[0055] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the thickness T2 of the deformed portion 33 is greater than the thickness T1 of the cut portion 31. This makes it possible to cut the cut portion 31 without cutting the deformed portion 33.

[0056] In the embodiment described above, an example was described in which the first cylindrical portion 23b and the second cylindrical portion 23c of the outer cylindrical portion 23 each have a substantially octagonal cylindrical shape, but the embodiment is not limited to this. For example, as shown in Figures 9 to 11, the first cylindrical portion 23b and the second cylindrical portion 23c of the outer cylindrical portion 23 may each have a substantially cylindrical shape.

[0057] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 9 to 11, each rib 40 does not have to be arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. In addition, the number of cut portions 31, protruding portions 32, and deformable portions 33 of the band portion 30 may be two each. Even in this case, by arranging the deformable portions 33, protruding portions 32, and cut portions 31 in this order along the opening direction of the cap 20 between the ribs 40, the rotational force applied to the band portion 30 when the cap 20 is rotated can be effectively applied to the cut portions 31 rather than the deformable portions 33. As a result, the user can determine that the capped container 1 has been opened, and tampering with the contents can be prevented.

[0058] Furthermore, although the above-described embodiment describes an example in which the container body 2 has a pouch 3 and a spout 10 attached to the pouch 3, it is not limited to this. For example, although not shown in the figures, the container body may be a container such as a PET bottle.

[0059] Furthermore, although the above-described embodiment explains an example in which the cap 20 is manufactured using a mold 80, the invention is not limited to this. For example, although not shown in the figures, the cap 20 may be manufactured using a 3D printer.

[0060] The multiple components disclosed in the above embodiments and each of the variations can be combined as needed. Alternatively, some components may be removed from all the components shown in the above embodiments and each of the variations. [Explanation of symbols]
